SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTI
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Notes) | 12 Months Ended |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of presentation. The Consolidated Financial Statements of First Financial Bancorp. (First Financial or the Company), a bank holding company, principally serving Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, include the accounts and operations of First Financial and its wholly owned subsidiary, First Financial Bank, N.A. (First Financial Bank or the Bank). All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications of prior years' amounts have been made to conform to current year presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on net earnings. Use of estimates. The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. Actual realized amounts could differ materially from those estimates. Investment securities. First Financial classifies debt and equity securities into three categories: held-to-maturity, trading and available-for-sale. Management determines the appropriate classification of investment securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as appropriate. Investment securities are classified as held-to-maturity when First Financial has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost. Investment securities classified as trading are held principally for resale in the near term and are recorded at fair value. Gains or losses, either unrealized or realized, are reported in noninterest income. Quoted market prices are used to determine the fair value of trading securities. Investment securities not classified as either held-to-maturity or trading are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders' equity. The amortized cost of investment securities classified as either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity, or in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security. Such amortization and accretion are considered an adjustment to the yield on the security and included in interest income from investments. Interest and dividends are included in interest income from investment securities. Realized gains and losses are based on the amortized cost of the security sold using the specific identification method. Available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities are reviewed quarterly for potential impairment. In performing this review, management considers the length of time and extent to which the fair value of the security has been less than amortized cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and the ability and intent of First Financial to hold the security for a period sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. If the fair value of a security is less than the amortized cost and the impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary, the security is written down, establishing a new and reduced cost basis. The related charge is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Other investments include holdings in Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) stock and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock. FRB and FHLB stock are both carried at cost. Loans held for sale. Loans held for sale consists of residential real estate loans newly originated for the purpose of sale to third parties, and in certain circumstances, loans previously originated that have been specifically identified by management for sale based on predetermined criteria. Loans originated for sale are immediately classified as held for sale upon origination and are considered to be at fair market value due to the commitment to sell in a short timeframe. Loans transferred to held for sale status are carried at the lower of cost or fair value with any difference charged to the allowance for loan and lease losses. Any subsequent change in the carrying value of transferred loans, not to exceed original cost, is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Loans and leases, excluding purchased impaired loans. Loans and leases for which First Financial has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or payoff, are classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as loans and leases. Except for loans which are subject to fair value requirements, loans and leases are carried at the principal amount outstanding, net of unamortized deferred loan origination fees and costs, and net of unearned income. Loan origination and commitment fees received, as well as certain direct loan origination costs paid, are deferred, and the net amount is amortized as an adjustment to the related loan's yield. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, the accrual of interest income is discontinued and previously accrued, but unpaid interest is reversed. Any payments received while a loan is classified as nonaccrual are applied as a reduction to the carrying value of the loan. A loan may return to accrual status if collection of future principal and interest payments is no longer doubtful. Acquired loans. Acquired loans are recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. Estimated fair values for acquired loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers various factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, interest rate, term of loan, whether or not the loan was amortizing and a discount rate reflecting the Company's assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates. Acquired loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. Certain loans acquired in FDIC-assisted transactions were initially covered under loss sharing agreements and are referred to as covered loans during the indemnification period. Subsequent to the indemnification period, they are referred to as formerly covered loans. First Financial evaluates acquired loans for impairment in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Acquired loans with evidence of credit deterioration since origination are accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 310-30 and are referred to as purchased impaired loans. Interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying value of the loans and the expected cash flows (accretable difference) is recognized on all purchased impaired loans. For purposes of applying the guidance under FASB ASC Topic 310-30, First Financial groups acquired loans into pools based on common risk characteristics. Expected cash flows are re-estimated periodically for all purchased impaired loans. The cash flows expected to be collected are estimated based upon the expected remaining life of the underlying loans, which includes the effects of estimated prepayments. Generally, a decline in expected cash flows for a pool of loans is referred to as impairment and recorded as provision expense on a discounted basis during the period (see "Allowance for loan and lease losses" below). Improvement in expected cash flows for a pool of loans, once any previously recorded impairment is recaptured, is recognized prospectively as an adjustment to the yield on the loans in the pool. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. For acquired loans that prepay, noninterest income may be recorded related to the accelerated recognition of the remaining purchase discount that would have been recognized over the life of the loan had it not prepaid, offset by a related adjustment to the FDIC indemnification asset if the loan is still covered under FDIC loss sharing protection. This scenario can occur either through a loan sale or ordinary prepayments that are typical in a loan portfolio. Acquired loans outside the scope of FASB ASC Topic 310-30 are accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 310-20, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Costs. Discounts created when the loans were recorded at their estimated fair values at acquisition are amortized over the remaining term of the loan as an adjustment to the related loan's yield. The accrual of interest income is discontinued when the collection of a loan or interest, in whole or in part, is doubtful. Allowance for loan and lease losses. For each reporting period, management maintains the ALLL at a level that it considers sufficient to absorb probable loan and lease losses inherent in the portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the ALLL based on historical loss experience as well as other significant factors such as composition of the portfolio, economic conditions, geographic footprint, the results of periodic internal and external evaluations of delinquent, nonaccrual and classified loans and any other adverse situations that may affect a specific borrower's ability to repay (including the timing of future payments). This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires utilizing material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change. Management's determination of the adequacy of the ALLL is based on an assessment of the probable loan and lease losses inherent in the portfolio given the conditions at the time. The ALLL is generally increased by provision expense and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries of amounts previously charged-off. Loans are charged off when management believes that the collection of the principal amount owed in full, either through payments from the borrower or from the liquidation of collateral, is unlikely. In the commercial portfolio, which includes time and demand notes, tax-exempt loans, C&I, construction, commercial real estate, mezzanine loans, and lease financing, loan and lease relationships greater than $250,000 that are considered impaired, or designated as a TDR, are evaluated to determine the need for a specific allowance based on the borrower's overall financial condition, resources, payment record, guarantor support and the realizable value of any collateral. The allowance for non-impaired commercial loan and lease and impaired commercial loan and lease relationships less than $250,000 includes a process of estimating the probable losses inherent in the portfolio by loan type, based on First Financial's internal system of credit risk ratings and historical loss data. These estimates may also be adjusted for management's estimate of probable losses dependent upon trends in the values of the underlying collateral, delinquent and nonaccrual loans, prevailing economic conditions, changes in lending strategies and other influencing factors. Consumer loans are generally evaluated by loan type, as these loans exhibit homogeneous characteristics. The allowance for consumer loans, which includes residential real estate, installment, home equity, credit card loans and overdrafts, is established by estimating losses inherent in each particular category of consumer loans. The estimate of losses is primarily based on historical loss rates for each category, as well as trends in delinquent and nonaccrual loans, prevailing economic conditions and other significant influencing factors. Consumer loans greater than $100,000 classified as TDRs are individually evaluated to determine an appropriate allowance. For purchased impaired loans, expected cash flows are re-estimated periodically with declines in gross expected cash flows at the pool level recorded as provision expense during the period. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The related, estimated reimbursement for loan losses due from the FDIC under loss sharing agreements, if applicable, is recorded as both FDIC loss sharing income and an increase to the FDIC indemnification asset. Reserve for unfunded commitments . First Financial maintains a reserve that it considers sufficient to absorb probable losses inherent in standby letters of credit and outstanding loan commitments and is included in Accrued interest and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The determination of the adequacy of the reserve is based upon an evaluation of the unfunded credit facilities, including consideration of historical commitment utilization experience, credit risk rating and historical loss rates, consistent with the allowance for loan and lease losses methodology previously discussed. Adjustments to the reserve for unfunded commitments are included in Other noninterest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. FDIC indemnification asset. The FDIC indemnification asset results from the loss sharing agreements entered into in conjunction with First Financial's FDIC-assisted transactions, and is measured separately from the related assets covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC as it is not contractually embedded in those assets and is not transferable should First Financial choose to dispose of the covered assets. The FDIC indemnification asset represents expected reimbursements from the FDIC for losses on covered assets. Pursuant to the terms of the loss sharing agreements, covered assets are subject to stated loss thresholds whereby the FDIC will reimburse First Financial for 80% of losses up to the stated loss thresholds, and 95% of losses in excess of the thresholds. The FDIC indemnification asset was recorded at its estimated fair value at the time of the FDIC-assisted transactions. Fair values were estimated using projected cash flows related to the loss sharing agreements based on the expected reimbursements for losses and the applicable loss sharing percentages. These cash flows were discounted to reflect the uncertainty of the timing of the loss sharing reimbursement from the FDIC. The accounting for the FDIC indemnification asset is closely related to the accounting for the underlying, indemnified assets as well as on-going assessment of the collectibility of the assets. First Financial re-estimates the expected indemnification asset cash flows in conjunction with the periodic re-estimation of cash flows on covered loans accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 310-30. Improvements in cash flow expectations on covered loans generally result in a related decline in the expected indemnification cash flows and are reflected as a yield adjustment on the indemnification asset. Declines in cash flow expectations on covered loans generally result in an increase in expected indemnification cash flows and are reflected as both FDIC loss sharing income and an increase to the indemnification asset. First Financial performs a collectibility assessment which includes evaluation of claims activity with the FDIC, adjustments to the indemnification asset from the accelerated discount on covered loans, the yield on the indemnification asset in relation to the yield on the underlying covered loans and the remaining term of the loss sharing agreements. Changes in the assessed collectibility of the indemnification asset, if any, are recognized as FDIC indemnification impairment in Noninterest expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Premises and equipment. Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are principally computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Useful lives generally range from 10 to 40 years for building and building improvements; 3 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment; and 3 to 5 years for software, hardware and data handling equipment. Land improvements are depreciated over 20 years and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the base term of the respective lease or the useful life of the asset. Premises and equipment are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets. Under accounting for business combinations, the net assets of entities acquired by First Financial are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. The excess cost of the acquisition over the fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives, if any, are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment tests. The Company is required to evaluate goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. First Financial performs its annual impairment test effective October 1, absent events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. The Company’s goodwill is accounted for in a single reporting unit representing the consolidated entity. Fair value is estimated using the market capitalization of the Company, as of the annual impairment testing date. First Financial also utilizes additional information and analysis to corroborate the use of the Company’s market capitalization as a proper indicator of fair value for purposes of the annual goodwill impairment test. Core deposit intangibles. Core deposit intangibles represent the estimated value of acquired relationships with deposit customers. The estimated fair value of core deposit intangibles are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gives appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, reserve requirements and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits. Core deposit intangibles are amortized on an accelerated basis over their useful lives. Other real estate owned. OREO represents properties acquired by the Company primarily through the loan foreclosure or repossession process, or other resolution activity that results in partial or total satisfaction of problem loans. OREO properties are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated disposal costs (net realizable value) upon acquisition. Losses arising at the time of acquisition of such properties are charged against the ALLL. Management performs periodic valuations to assess the adequacy of the recorded OREO balances and subsequent write-downs in the carrying value of OREO properties are expensed as incurred. Improvements to OREO properties may be capitalized if the improvements contribute to the overall value of the property, but may not be capitalized in excess of the net realizable value of the property. When management disposes of an OREO property, any gains or losses realized at the time of disposal are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Certain OREO properties are subject to loss sharing agreements whereby the FDIC will reimburse First Financial for 80% of losses up to the stated loss thresholds, and 95% of losses in excess of the thresholds. When management disposes of an OREO property subject to loss sharing agreements, any gains or losses realized at the time of disposal are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income and are substantially offset by a related adjustment to the FDIC indemnification asset. Affordable housing projects. First Financial has made investments in certain qualified affordable housing projects. These projects are an indirect federal subsidy that provide tax incentives to encourage investment in the development, acquisition and rehabilitation of affordable rental housing, and allow investors to claim tax credits and other tax benefits (such as deductions from taxable income for operating losses) on their federal income tax returns. The principal risk associated with qualified affordable housing investments is the potential for noncompliance with the tax code requirements, such as, failure to rent property to qualified tenants, resulting in unavailability or recapture of the tax credits and other tax benefits. Investments in affordable housing projects are included in Accrued income and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income taxes. First Financial and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Each subsidiary provides for income taxes on a separate return basis, and remits to First Financial amounts determined to be currently payable. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Interest and penalties on income tax assessments or income tax refunds are recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements as a component of noninterest expense. Pension. First Financial sponsors a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all employees. The measurement of the accrued benefit liability and the annual pension expense involves actuarial and economic assumptions. The assumptions used in pension accounting include those related to the discount rates, the expected return on plan assets and the rate of compensation increase. Derivative instruments. First Financial accounts for its derivative financial instruments in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. FASB ASC Topic 815 requires all derivative instruments to be carried at fair value on the balance sheet. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. First Financial utilizes interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to offer commercial borrowers products that meet their needs, but are also designed to achieve First Financial’s desired interest rate risk profile. First Financial utilizes interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges to manage the variability of cash flows, primarily net interest income, attributable to changes in interest rates. Back to back swaps - First Financial enters into swap agreements with commercial borrowers and simultaneously enters into offsetting swap agreements, with substantially matching terms, with institutional counterparties. These matched interest rate swap agreements generally involve the receipt by First Financial of floating rate amounts from the counterparties in exchange for payments to these counterparties by First Financial of fixed rate amounts received from commercial borrowers over the life of the agreements. This results in First Financial’s loan customers receiving fixed rate funding, while providing First Financial with a floating rate asset. First Financial's matched interest rate swaps qualify as derivatives, but are not designated as hedging instruments. The net interest receivable or payable on matched interest rate swaps is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to interest income. The fair values of back to back swaps are included within Accrued interest and other assets and Accrued interest and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Pay fixed interest rate swaps - For unmatched, pay fixed interest rate swaps, which qualify for hedge accounting, the corresponding fair-value adjustment is included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in the carrying value of the hedged item. The net interest receivable or payable on unmatched interest rate swaps is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to the interest income of the hedged item. Gains and losses from derivatives not considered effective in hedging the change in fair value of the hedged item, if any, are recognized in income immediately. Cash flow hedges - The net interest receivable or payable on an interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to interest income or interest expense, while the fair value is included within Accrued interest and other assets or Accrued interest and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from derivatives not considered effective in hedging the cash flows related to the hedged items, if any, are recognized in income immediately. Credit derivatives - In conjunction with participating interests in commercial loans, First Financial periodically enters into risk participation agreements with counterparties whereby First Financial assumes a portion of the credit exposure associated with an interest rate swap on the participated loan in exchange for a fee. Under these agreements, First Financial will make payments to the counterparty if the loan customer defaults on its obligation to perform under the interest rate swap contract with the counterparty. The fair value of these agreements were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Accrued interest and other liabilities. Mortgage derivatives - First Financial enters into IRLCs and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors, which are considered derivatives. When borrowers secure an IRLC with First Financial and the loan is intended to be sold, First Financial will enter into forward commitments for the future delivery of the loans to third party investors in order to hedge against the effect of changes in interest rates impacting IRLCs and and Loans held for sale. The fair value of these agreements was recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Accrued interest and other assets. Like other financial instruments, derivatives contain an element of credit risk, which is the possibility that First Financial will incur a loss because a counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. Generally, the credit risk associated with interest rate swaps is significantly less than the notional values associated with these instruments. The notional values represent contractual balances on which the calculations of amounts to be exchanged are based. First Financial manages this credit risk through counterparty credit policies. Stock-based compensation. First Financial grants stock-based awards, including restricted stock awards for and options to purchase the Company’s common stock. Stock option grants are for a fixed number of shares to employees and directors with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The amortization of stock-based compensation expense reflects estimated forfeitures, adjusted for actual forfeiture experience. As compensation expense is recognized, a deferred tax asset is recorded that represents an estimate of the future tax deduction from exercise. At the time stock-based awards are exercised, canceled or expire, First Financial may be required to recognize an adjustment to tax expense. Earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, unvested shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents, which consist of common stock issuable under the assumed exercise of stock options granted under First Financial's stock-based compensation plans and the assumed conversion of common stock warrants, are calculated using the treasury stock method. Cash and due from banks. Cash and due from banks consist of currency, coin and cash items due from banks. Cash items due from banks include noninterest bearing deposits held at other banks. Segments and related information. While the Company monitors the operating results of its four lines of business, the operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, and consistent with prior years, all of the Company's operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
RECENTLY ADOPTED AND ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS | Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards In January 2014, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects) that permits First Financial to make an accounting policy election to account for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects using a proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, First Financial would amortize the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognize the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense. The amended guidance requires disclosure of the nature of First Financial’s investments in qualified affordable housing projects, and the effect of the measurement of the investments in qualified affordable housing projects and the related tax credits on First Financial’s financial position and results of operation. The provisions of this update became effective for the interim reporting period ended March 31, 2015. First Financial made the election to adopt the proportional amortization method during the first quarter 2015. This update did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In January 2014, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2014-04, Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure) which clarifies 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 de-recognized and the real estate property recognized . The provisions of this update became effective for the interim reporting period ended March 31, 2015. This update did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In April 2014, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity) which redefines what constitutes a discontinued operation. Under the revised standard, a discontinued operation is a component of an entity or group of components that has been disposed of by sale, disposed of other than by sale or is classified as held for sale, that represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results, or an acquired business or nonprofit activity that is classified as held for sale on the date of the acquisition. A strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results could include the disposal of a major line of business, a major geographic area, a major equity method investment or other major parts of an entity. The new guidance eliminates the criteria prohibiting an entity from reporting a discontinued operation if it has certain continuing cash flows or involvement with the component after the disposal and requires additional disclosures for discontinued operations and new disclosures for individually material disposal transactions that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. The provisions of this update became effective for the interim reporting period ended March 31, 2015. This update did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers) which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Under the revised standard, an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Certain of the ASU’s provisions also apply to transfers of nonfinancial assets, including in-substance nonfinancial assets that are not an output of an entity’s ordinary activities, such as sales of property, plant, and equipment; real estate; or intangible assets. The ASU also requires significantly expanded disclosures about revenue recognition. The provisions of ASU 2014-09 become effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted beginning January 1, 2017. First Financial is currently evaluating the impact of this update on its Consolidated Financial Statements. In June 2014, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2014-11, Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures) that requires repurchase-to-maturity transactions to be accounted for as secured borrowings rather than as sales with a forward repurchase commitment and eliminates current guidance on repurchase financings. The ASU requires separate accounting for a transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty. If the derecognition criteria are met, the initial transfer will generally be accounted for as a sale and the repurchase agreement will generally be accounted for as a secured borrowing. The ASU requires new disclosures for repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions and repurchase-to-maturity transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU also requires new disclosures for transfers of financial assets that are accounted for as sales that involve an agreement with the transferee entered into in contemplation of the initial transfer that result in the transferor retaining substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial assets throughout the term of the transaction. The provisions of this update became effective for the interim reporting period ended March 31, 2015. This update did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2014-14, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors: Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure) that requires a mortgage loan be derecognized and a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: a) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure, b) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim and c) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The provisions of this update became effective for the interim reporting period ended March 31, 2015. This update did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern: Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern) that requires management perform a going concern evaluation similar to the auditor’s evaluation required by standards issued by the PCAOB and the AICPA. The ASU requires management to evaluate relevant conditions, events and certain management plans that are known or reasonably knowable as of the evaluation date when determining whether substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists for both annual and interim reporting periods. If management concludes that substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, the notes to the financial statements are required to include a statement that there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The provisions of this update become effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. First Financial does not anticipate this update will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs) that requires debt issuance costs to be presented as a deduction from the corresponding debt liability. Upon adoption, an entity must apply the new guidance retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The provisions of this update are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. First Financial adopted this accounting standard during the third quarter of 2015 and recorded $1.7 million of deferred debt issuance costs as a reduction to long-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2015 . Management concluded that the debt issuance costs capitalized in prior periods was immaterial as a component of other assets, total assets, total long-term debt and total liabilities, and as such, the Company's prior periods have not been restated. The amount of unamortized debt issuance costs not reclassified was $0.1 million as of December 31, 2014. In May 2015, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share) which will eliminate the requirement to categorize investments whose fair values are measured at net asset value within the fair value hierarchy using the practical expedient. This update will require entities to disclose the fair values of such investments so that financial statement users can reconcile amounts reported in the fair value hierarchy table and the amounts reported on the balance sheet. The provisions of this update become effective for the interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. First Financial does not anticipate this update will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. In September 2015, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations: Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments) which eliminates the requirement for an acquirer in a business combination to account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. This update will require acquiring companies to recognize measurement-period adjustments during the period in which they determine the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts they would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The guidance in this ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. First Financial does not anticipate this update will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Restrictions On Cash And Dividends [Text Block] | Restrictions On Cash And Dividends First Financial Bank is required to maintain average reserve balances either in the form of vault cash or reserves held on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank, Federal Home Loan Bank or in pass-through reserve accounts with correspondent banks. The average amounts of these required reserve balances, based upon the average level of First Financial's transaction accounts for 2015 and 2014 were approximately $56.5 million and $56.2 million , respectively. Dividends paid by First Financial to its shareholders are principally funded through dividends paid to the Company by its subsidiaries. However, certain restrictions exist regarding the ability of bank subsidiaries to transfer funds to First Financial in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. The approval of the subsidiaries' respective primary federal regulators is required for First Financial's subsidiaries to pay dividends in excess of the regulatory limit, which is equal to the net income of the current year through the dividend date, combined with its retained net income from the two preceding years. As of December 31, 2015 , First Financial's subsidiaries had retained earnings of $449.0 million of which $100.8 million was available for distribution to First Financial without prior regulatory approval. |

All securities with unrealized losses are reviewed quarterly to determine if any impairment is considered other than temporary, requiring a write-down to fair value. First Financial considers the percentage loss on a security, duration of the loss, average life or duration of the security, credit rating of the security and payment performance as well as the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security to maturity when determining whether any impairment is other than temporary. At this time First Financial does not intend to sell, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell debt securities temporarily impaired prior to maturity or recovery of the recorded value. First Financial had no other than temporary impairment related to its investment securities portfolio as of December 31, 2015 or 2014 .

Loans are classified as nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, collection of principal or interest is doubtful or when principal or interest payments are 90 days or more past due. Generally, loans are classified as nonaccrual due to the continued failure to adhere to contractual payment terms by the borrower coupled with other pertinent factors, such as, insufficient collateral value. The accrual of interest income is discontinued and previously accrued, but unpaid interest is reversed when a loan is classified as nonaccrual. Any payments received while a loan is on nonaccrual status are applied as a reduction to the carrying value of the loan. A loan may be returned to accrual status if collection of future principal and interest payments is no longer doubtful. Purchased impaired loans are classified as performing, even though they may be contractually past due, as any nonpayment of contractual principal or interest is considered in the periodic re-estimation of expected cash flows and is included in the resulting recognition of current period covered loan loss provision or prospective yield adjustments. Troubled debt restructurings. A loan modification is considered a TDR when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made by the Company that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower with similar credit characteristics. The most common types of modifications include interest rate reductions, maturity extensions and modifications to principal amortization including interest only structures. Modified terms are dependent upon the financial position and needs of the individual borrower. If the modification agreement is violated, the loan is managed by the Company’s credit administration group for resolution, which may result in foreclosure in the case of real estate. TDRs are generally classified as nonaccrual for a minimum period of six months and may qualify for return to accrual status once they have demonstrated sustained performance with the restructured terms of the loan agreement. First Financial had 271 TDRs totaling $38.2 million at December 31, 2015 , including $28.9 million of loans on accrual status and $9.3 million of loans classified as nonaccrual. First Financial has $1.8 million of commitments outstanding to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loan terms have been modified in TDRs as of December 31, 2015 . At December 31, 2015 , the allowance for loan and lease losses included reserves of $6.3 million related to TDRs and approximately $10.3 million of the accruing TDRs have been performing in accordance with the restructured terms for more than one year. For the year ended December 31, 2015 , First Financial charged off $2.7 million for the portion of TDRs determined to be uncollectible. First Financial had 262 TDRs totaling $28.2 million at December 31, 2014 , including $15.9 million of loans on accrual status and $12.3 million of loans classified as nonaccrual. First Financial had an insignificant amount of commitments outstanding to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loan terms have been modified in TDRs as of December 31, 2014 . At December 31, 2014 , the allowance for loan and lease losses included reserves of $3.7 million related to TDRs and approximately $10.5 million of the accruing TDRs had been performing in accordance with the restructured terms for more than one year.

First Financial considers repayment performance as an indication of the effectiveness of the Company's loan modifications. Borrowers that are 90 days or more past due on any principal or interest payments for a TDR, or who prematurely terminate a restructured loan agreement without paying off the contractual principal balance (for example, in a deed-in-lieu arrangement), are considered to be in payment default of the terms of the TDR agreement.

First Financial individually reviews all impaired commercial loan relationships greater than $250,000 , as well as consumer loan TDRs greater than $100,000 , to determine if a specific allowance is necessary based on the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources, payment record, support from guarantors and the realizable value of any collateral. Specific allowances are based on discounted cash flows using the loan's initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans.

Changes in the balance of the FDIC indemnification asset and the related impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income are presented in the table that follows: (Dollars in thousands) Years ended December 31, 2015 2014 2013 Affected Line Item in the Consolidated Statements of Income Balance at beginning of year $ 22,666 $ 45,091 $ 119,607 Adjustments not reflected in income Net FDIC claims (received) / paid 2,423 (6,785 ) (22,103 ) Adjustments reflected in income Amortization (4,740 ) (5,531 ) (7,672 ) Interest income, other earning assets FDIC loss sharing income (2,487 ) 365 3,720 Noninterest income, FDIC loss sharing income Offset to accelerated discount (232 ) (10,474 ) (26,044 ) Noninterest income, accelerated discount on covered loans Impairment valuation adjustment 0 0 (22,417 ) Noninterest expenses, FDIC indemnification impairment Balance at end of year $ 17,630 $ 22,666 $ 45,091 The accounting for FDIC indemnification assets is closely related to the accounting for the underlying, indemnified assets as well as on-going assessment of the collectibility of the indemnification assets. The primary activities impacting the FDIC indemnification asset are FDIC claims, amortization, FDIC loss sharing income and accelerated discount. FDIC claims - First Financial files quarterly certifications with the FDIC and submits claims for losses, valuation adjustments and collection expenses incurred, less recoveries of any previous amounts claimed that are reimbursable back to the FDIC, as allowed under the loss sharing agreements. Cash reimbursements are generally received within 30 days of filing and are recorded as a credit to the indemnification asset balance, thus reducing its carrying value. Amortization - As the yield on covered loans increased over time as a result of improvement in the expected cash flows on covered loans, the yield on the indemnification asset declined. The yield on the indemnification asset became negative in the first quarter of 2011 at which time the indemnification asset began to decline through monthly amortization at the negative yield. FDIC loss sharing income - FDIC loss sharing income represents the proportionate share of credit costs on covered assets that First Financial expects to receive from the FDIC. Credit costs on covered assets include provision expense on covered loans, losses on covered OREO and other covered collection and asset resolution costs recorded as loss sharing expense under noninterest expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Offset to accelerated discount - Accelerated discounts on covered loans occur when covered loans prepay and represent the accelerated recognition of the remaining discount that would have been recognized over the life of the loan had the loan not prepaid. In conjunction with the recognition of accelerated discount, First Financial also recognizes a related offset through noninterest income and reduction to the indemnification asset for a portion of the discount representing expected credit loss included in the discount recorded at acquisition. First Financial’s periodic collectibility assessment includes evaluation of these primary sources of indemnification asset recovery, the resulting projected balances and collectibility / recovery of the indemnification asset upon expiration of the non-single family loss protection in the third quarter of 2014 and expiration of the single-family, residential loss protection in the third quarter 2019. As a result of improvement in future expected cash flows on covered loans, a meaningful decline in loss claims filed with the FDIC, higher reimbursements to the FDIC related to positive asset resolutions in recent periods and the significantly shorter remaining life of the indemnification asset in comparison to the weighted average life of the related covered loans, which extended covered assets and related losses beyond the commercial indemnification period, the Company recorded a valuation adjustment to reduce the value of the FDIC indemnification asset of $22.4 million during 2013." id="sjs-B4">Loans and Leases First Financial offers clients a variety of commercial and consumer loan and lease products with various interest rates and payment terms. Lending activities are primarily concentrated in states where the Bank currently operates banking centers (Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky). Additionally, First Financial has two national lending platforms, one that provides equipment and leasehold improvement financing for franchisees in the quick service and casual dining restaurant sector and another that provides loans secured by commissions and cash collateral accounts exclusively to insurance agents and brokers. Commercial loan categories include C&I, commercial real estate, construction real estate and lease financing. Consumer loan categories include residential real estate, home equity, installment and credit card. For more information on First Financial's lending practices, see "Lending Practices" in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Purchased impaired loans. Loans accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, are referred to as purchased impaired loans. First Financial accounts for the majority of loans acquired in FDIC transactions as purchased impaired loans, except for loans with revolving privileges, which are outside the scope of FASB ASC Topic 310-30, and loans for which cash flows could not be estimated, which are accounted for under the cost recovery method. Purchased impaired loans include loans previously covered under loss sharing agreements as well as loans that remain subject to FDIC loss sharing coverage. Purchased impaired loans are not classified as nonperforming assets as the loans are considered to be performing under FASB ASC Topic 310-30. Therefore, interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying value of the loans and the expected cash flows (accretable difference) is recognized on all purchased impaired loans. First Financial had purchased impaired loans totaling $191.6 million and $264.9 million , at December 31, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The outstanding balance of all purchased impaired loans, including all contractual principal, interest, fees and penalties, was $213.3 million and $314.5 million as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. These balances exclude contractual interest not yet accrued. For more information on First Financial's accounting for purchased impaired loans, see Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Changes in the carrying amount of accretable difference for purchased impaired loans for the years ended December 31 were as follows: (Dollars in thousands) 2015 2014 2013 Balance at beginning of year $ 106,622 $ 133,671 $ 224,694 Reclassification from non-accretable difference 1,075 23,216 1,470 Accretion (21,544 ) (33,730 ) (58,422 ) Other net activity (1) (21,296 ) (16,535 ) (34,071 ) Balance at end of year $ 64,857 $ 106,622 $ 133,671 (1) Includes the impact of loan repayments and charge-offs. First Financial regularly reviews its forecast of expected cash flows for purchased impaired loans. The Company recognized reclassifications from nonaccretable to accretable difference of $1.1 million during 2015 , $23.2 million during 2014 and $1.5 million during 2013 due to changes in the cash flow expectations related to certain loan pools. These reclassifications can result in impairment and provision expense in the current period or yield adjustments on the related loan pools on a prospective basis. Covered loans. Loans acquired in FDIC-assisted transactions covered under loss sharing agreements whereby the FDIC will reimburse First Financial for the majority of any losses incurred are referred to as covered loans. Pursuant to the terms of the loss sharing agreements, covered loans are subject to a stated loss threshold whereby the FDIC will reimburse First Financial for 80% of losses up to a stated loss threshold and 95% of losses in excess of the threshold. These loss sharing agreements provide for partial loss protection on single-family, residential loans for a period of ten years and First Financial is required to share any recoveries of previously charged-off amounts for the same time period, on the same pro-rata basis with the FDIC. All other loans are provided loss protection for a period of five years and recoveries of previously charged-off amounts must be shared with the FDIC for an additional three year period, again on the same pro-rata basis. The Company's loss sharing agreements with the FDIC related to non-single family assets expired effective October 1, 2014, and the ten year period of loss protection on all other covered loans and covered OREO expires October 1, 2019. Covered loans totaled $113.3 million as of December 31, 2015 and $135.7 million as of December 31, 2014 . Credit quality. To facilitate the monitoring of credit quality for commercial loans, and for purposes of determining an appropriate allowance for loan and lease losses, First Financial utilizes the following categories of credit grades: Pass - Higher quality loans that do not fit any of the other categories described below. Special Mention - First Financial assigns a special mention rating to loans and leases with potential weaknesses that deserve management's close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or lease or in First Financial's credit position at some future date. Substandard - First Financial assigns a substandard rating to loans or leases that are inadequately protected by the current sound financial worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard loans and leases have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize repayment of the debt. Substandard loans and leases are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not addressed. Doubtful - First Financial assigns a doubtful rating to loans and leases with all the attributes of a substandard rating with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the credit quality of the loan or lease, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. Pending factors include proposed merger, acquisition or liquidation procedures, capital injection, perfecting liens on additional collateral and refinancing plans. The credit grades described above, which are derived from standard regulatory rating definitions, are assigned upon initial approval of credit to borrowers and updated periodically thereafter. First Financial considers repayment performance as the best indicator of credit quality for consumer loans. Consumer loans that have principal and interest payments that are past due by 90 days or more are generally classified as nonperforming. Additionally, consumer loans that have been modified in a TDR are classified as nonperforming.

Loans are classified as nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, collection of principal or interest is doubtful or when principal or interest payments are 90 days or more past due. Generally, loans are classified as nonaccrual due to the continued failure to adhere to contractual payment terms by the borrower coupled with other pertinent factors, such as, insufficient collateral value. The accrual of interest income is discontinued and previously accrued, but unpaid interest is reversed when a loan is classified as nonaccrual. Any payments received while a loan is on nonaccrual status are applied as a reduction to the carrying value of the loan. A loan may be returned to accrual status if collection of future principal and interest payments is no longer doubtful. Purchased impaired loans are classified as performing, even though they may be contractually past due, as any nonpayment of contractual principal or interest is considered in the periodic re-estimation of expected cash flows and is included in the resulting recognition of current period covered loan loss provision or prospective yield adjustments. Troubled debt restructurings. A loan modification is considered a TDR when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made by the Company that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower with similar credit characteristics. The most common types of modifications include interest rate reductions, maturity extensions and modifications to principal amortization including interest only structures. Modified terms are dependent upon the financial position and needs of the individual borrower. If the modification agreement is violated, the loan is managed by the Company’s credit administration group for resolution, which may result in foreclosure in the case of real estate. TDRs are generally classified as nonaccrual for a minimum period of six months and may qualify for return to accrual status once they have demonstrated sustained performance with the restructured terms of the loan agreement. First Financial had 271 TDRs totaling $38.2 million at December 31, 2015 , including $28.9 million of loans on accrual status and $9.3 million of loans classified as nonaccrual. First Financial has $1.8 million of commitments outstanding to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loan terms have been modified in TDRs as of December 31, 2015 . At December 31, 2015 , the allowance for loan and lease losses included reserves of $6.3 million related to TDRs and approximately $10.3 million of the accruing TDRs have been performing in accordance with the restructured terms for more than one year. For the year ended December 31, 2015 , First Financial charged off $2.7 million for the portion of TDRs determined to be uncollectible. First Financial had 262 TDRs totaling $28.2 million at December 31, 2014 , including $15.9 million of loans on accrual status and $12.3 million of loans classified as nonaccrual. First Financial had an insignificant amount of commitments outstanding to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loan terms have been modified in TDRs as of December 31, 2014 . At December 31, 2014 , the allowance for loan and lease losses included reserves of $3.7 million related to TDRs and approximately $10.5 million of the accruing TDRs had been performing in accordance with the restructured terms for more than one year. For the year ended December 31, 2014 , First Financial charged off $1.0 million for the portion of TDRs determined to be uncollectible.

First Financial considers repayment performance as an indication of the effectiveness of the Company's loan modifications. Borrowers that are 90 days or more past due on any principal or interest payments for a TDR, or who prematurely terminate a restructured loan agreement without paying off the contractual principal balance (for example, in a deed-in-lieu arrangement), are considered to be in payment default of the terms of the TDR agreement.

First Financial individually reviews all impaired commercial loan relationships greater than $250,000 , as well as consumer loan TDRs greater than $100,000 , to determine if a specific allowance is necessary based on the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources, payment record, support from guarantors and the realizable value of any collateral. Specific allowances are based on discounted cash flows using the loan's initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans.

The primary activities impacting the FDIC indemnification asset are FDIC claims, amortization, FDIC loss sharing income and accelerated discount. FDIC claims - First Financial files quarterly certifications with the FDIC and submits claims for losses, valuation adjustments and collection expenses incurred, less recoveries of any previous amounts claimed that are reimbursable back to the FDIC, as allowed under the loss sharing agreements. Cash reimbursements are generally received within 30 days of filing and are recorded as a credit to the indemnification asset balance, thus reducing its carrying value. Amortization - As the yield on covered loans increased over time as a result of improvement in the expected cash flows on covered loans, the yield on the indemnification asset declined. The yield on the indemnification asset became negative in the first quarter of 2011 at which time the indemnification asset began to decline through monthly amortization at the negative yield. FDIC loss sharing income - FDIC loss sharing income represents the proportionate share of credit costs on covered assets that First Financial expects to receive from the FDIC. Credit costs on covered assets include provision expense on covered loans, losses on covered OREO and other covered collection and asset resolution costs recorded as loss sharing expense under noninterest expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Offset to accelerated discount - Accelerated discounts on covered loans occur when covered loans prepay and represent the accelerated recognition of the remaining discount that would have been recognized over the life of the loan had the loan not prepaid. In conjunction with the recognition of accelerated discount, First Financial also recognizes a related offset through noninterest income and reduction to the indemnification asset for a portion of the discount representing expected credit loss included in the discount recorded at acquisition. First Financial’s periodic collectibility assessment includes evaluation of these primary sources of indemnification asset recovery, the resulting projected balances and collectibility / recovery of the indemnification asset upon expiration of the non-single family loss protection in the third quarter of 2014 and expiration of the single-family, residential loss protection in the third quarter 2019. As a result of improvement in future expected cash flows on covered loans, a meaningful decline in loss claims filed with the FDIC, higher reimbursements to the FDIC related to positive asset resolutions in recent periods and the significantly shorter remaining life of the indemnification asset in comparison to the weighted average life of the related covered loans, which extended covered assets and related losses beyond the commercial indemnification period, the Company recorded a valuation adjustment to reduce the value of the FDIC indemnification asset of $22.4 million during 2013. |

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES | Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses Loans and leases. For each reporting period, management maintains the allowance for loan and lease losses at a level that it considers sufficient to absorb probable loan and lease losses inherent in the portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based on historical loss experience as well as other significant factors such as composition of the portfolio, economic conditions, geographic footprint, the results of periodic internal and external evaluations of delinquent, nonaccrual and classified loans and any other adverse situations that may affect a specific borrower's ability to repay (including the timing of future payments). This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires utilizing material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change. For further discussion of First Financial's allowance methodology, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The allowance is increased by provision expense and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries of amounts previously charged-off. First Financial's policy is to charge-off all or a portion of a loan when, in management's opinion, it is unlikely to collect the principal amount owed in full either through payments from the borrower or from the liquidation of collateral. During 2015, First Financial closed its merger with Oak Street. Loans acquired in this transaction were recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date with no carryover of the related ALLL. During 2014, First Financial completed the mergers of First Bexley, Insight and Guernsey. Loans acquired in connection with those mergers were recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date with no carryover of the related ALLL. See Note 20 – Business Combinations for further detail. Covered/formerly covered loans. The majority of covered/formerly covered loans are purchased impaired loans, whereby First Financial is required to periodically re-estimate the expected cash flows on the loans. For further detail regarding accounting for purchased impaired loans and the related allowance, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. First Financial updated the valuations related to covered/formerly covered loans periodically during 2015 . First Financial recognized provision expense of $1.7 million and realized net charge-offs of $1.5 million , resulting in an ending allowance of $10.2 million as of December 31, 2015 . During 2014 , the Company recognized negative provision expense, or impairment recapture, of $1.8 million and realized net charge-offs of $7.0 million , resulting in an ending allowance of $10.0 million . During 2013 , the Company recognized total provision expense of $0.2 million and realized net charge-offs of $26.5 million , resulting in an ending allowance of $18.9 million . First Financial also recognized loss sharing expenses of $2.6 million for 2015 , $3.6 million for 2014 and $5.9 million for 2013 primarily related to attorney fees, delinquent taxes, appraisals and losses on covered OREO during the period. The net payable of $2.5 million due to the FDIC under loss sharing agreements related to covered loan recoveries, gains/losses on covered OREO and loss sharing expenses was recognized as negative FDIC loss sharing income for 2015 and a corresponding decrease to the FDIC indemnification asset. The receivable due from the FDIC under loss sharing agreements of $0.4 million for 2014 and $3.7 million for 2013 , was recognized as FDIC loss sharing income and a corresponding increase to the FDIC indemnification asset.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
DERIVATIVES | Derivatives First Financial uses certain derivative instruments, including interest rate caps, floors and swaps, to meet the needs of its clients while managing the interest rate risk associated with certain transactions. First Financial does not use derivatives for speculative purposes. For discussion of First Financial's accounting for derivative instruments, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. First Financial primarily utilizes interest rate swaps as a means to offer borrowers credit-based products that meet their needs and may from time to time utilize interest rate swaps to manage the interest rate risk profile of the Company. Interest rate swap agreements establish the basis on which interest rate payments are exchanged with counterparties, referred to as the notional amount. As only interest rate payments are exchanged, the cash requirements and credit risk associated with interest rate swaps are significantly less than the notional amount and the Company’s credit risk exposure is limited to the market value of the instruments. First Financial manages this market value credit risk through counterparty credit policies. These policies require the Company to maintain a total derivative notional position of less than 35% of assets, total credit exposure of less than 3% of capital and no single counterparty credit risk exposure greater than $20.0 million . The Company is currently well below all single counterparty and portfolio limits. At December 31, 2015 , the Company had a total counterparty notional amount outstanding of approximately $551.7 million , spread among nine counterparties, with an outstanding liability from these contracts of $13.4 million . At December 31, 2014 , First Financial had a total counterparty notional amount outstanding of $566.2 million , spread among nine counterparties, with an outstanding liability from these contracts of $12.4 million . First Financial’s exposure to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by a borrower, is limited to the market value of the derivative instrument associated with that borrower. First Financial monitors its derivative credit exposure to borrowers by monitoring the creditworthiness of the related loan customers through the normal credit review processes the Company performs on all borrowers. Additionally, the Company monitors derivative credit risk exposure related to problem loans through the Company's allowance for loan and lease losses committee. First Financial considers the market value of a derivative instrument to be part of the carrying value of the related loan for these purposes as the borrower is contractually obligated to pay First Financial this amount in the event the derivative contract is terminated. Fair value hedges. First Financial utilizes interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to offer commercial borrowers fixed rate funding while providing the Company with floating rate assets. The following table details the location and amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for fair value hedges: December 31, 2015 December 31, 2014 Estimated fair value Estimated fair value (Dollars in thousands) Balance Sheet Location Notional amount Gain Loss Notional amount Gain Loss Fair Value Hedges - Instruments associated with loans Pay fixed interest rate swaps with counterparty Accrued interest and other liabilities $ 5,216 $ 0 $ (120 ) $ 8,739 $ 0 $ (440 ) Matched interest rate swaps with borrower Accrued interest and other assets and other liabilities 546,458 13,981 (44 ) 407,423 11,150 (249 ) Matched interest rate swaps with counterparty Accrued interest and other liabilities 546,458 44 (14,015 ) 407,423 249 (11,227 ) Total $ 1,098,132 $ 14,025 $ (14,179 ) $ 823,585 $ 11,399 $ (11,916 ) In connection with its use of derivative instruments, First Financial and its counterparties are required to post cash collateral to offset the market position of the derivative instruments under certain conditions. First Financial maintains the right to offset these derivative positions with the collateral posted against them by or with the relevant counterparties. First Financial classifies the derivative cash collateral outstanding with its counterparties as an adjustment to the fair value of the derivative contracts within Accrued interest and other assets or Accrued interest and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table discloses the gross and net amounts of assets and liabilities recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets: December 31, 2015 December 31, 2014 (Dollars in thousands) Gross amounts of recognized liabilities Gross amounts offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Net amounts of assets presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Gross amounts of recognized liabilities Gross amounts offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Net amounts of assets presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Fair value hedges Pay fixed interest rate swaps with counterparty $ 120 $ 0 $ 120 $ 440 $ 0 $ 440 Matched interest rate swaps 14,015 (16,710 ) (2,695 ) 11,476 (12,260 ) (784 ) Total $ 14,135 $ (16,710 ) $ (2,575 ) $ 11,916 $ (12,260 ) $ (344 ) The following table details the derivative financial instruments, the average remaining maturities and the weighted-average interest rates being paid and received by First Financial at December 31, 2015 : Weighted-Average Rate (Dollars in thousands) Notional amount Average maturity (years) Fair value Receive Pay Asset conversion swaps Pay fixed interest rate swaps with counterparty $ 5,216 1.6 $ (120 ) 2.21 % 6.95 % Receive fixed, matched interest rate swaps with borrower 546,458 4.9 13,937 4.41 % 2.60 % Pay fixed, matched interest rate swaps with counterparty 546,458 4.9 (13,971 ) 2.60 % 4.41 % Total asset conversion swaps $ 1,098,132 4.9 $ (154 ) 3.50 % 3.52 % Cash flow hedges. First Financial utilizes interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges to hedge against interest rate volatility on indexed floating rate deposits. These interest rate swaps qualify for hedge accounting and involve the receipt by First Financial of variable-rate interest amounts in exchange for fixed-rate interest payments by First Financial. As of December 31, 2014 , the Company had active interest rate swaps with a notional value of $150.0 million . Accrued interest and other liabilities included $1.7 million at December 31, 2014 , reflecting the fair value of these cash flow hedges. First Financial terminated all cash flow hedges during the second quarter of 2015. Credit derivatives. In conjunction with participating interests in commercial loans, First Financial periodically enters into risk participation agreements with counterparties whereby First Financial assumes a portion of the credit exposure associated with an interest rate swap on the participated loan in exchange for a fee. Under these agreements, First Financial will make payments to the counterparty if the loan customer defaults on its obligation to perform under the interest rate swap contract with the counterparty. The total notional value of these agreements totaled $33.6 million as of December 31, 2015 and $26.4 million as of December 31, 2014 . The fair value of these agreements were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as liabilities of $0.1 million as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . Mortgage Derivatives. First Financial enters into IRLCs and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors, which are considered derivatives. When borrowers secure an IRLC with First Financial and the loan is intended to be sold, First Financial will enter into forward commitments for the future delivery of the loans to third party investors in order to hedge against the effect of changes in interest rates impacting IRLCs and and Loans held for sale. At December 31, 2015 , the notional amount of the IRLCs was $18.5 million and the notional amount of forward commitments was $25.1 million . The fair value of these agreements was $0.1 million as of December 31, 2015 and was recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Accrued interest and other assets. There were no such derivatives as of December 31, 2014. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | Commitments and Contingencies First Financial offers a variety of financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to its clients to assist them in meeting their requirement for liquidity and credit enhancement. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and outstanding commitments to extend credit. GAAP does not require these financial instruments to be recorded in the Consolidated Financial Statements. First Financial utilizes the same credit policies in issuing commitments and conditional obligations as it does for credit instruments recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. First Financial’s exposure to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for standby letters of credit and outstanding commitments to extend credit, is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments. First Financial utilizes the allowance for loan and lease losses methodology to maintain a reserve that it considers sufficient to absorb probable losses inherent in standby letters of credit and outstanding loan commitments and records the reserve within Accrued interest and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Loan commitments. Loan commitments are agreements to extend credit to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the commitment agreement. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by First Financial upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the client. The collateral held varies, but may include securities, real estate, inventory, plant or equipment. First Financial had commitments outstanding to extend credit totaling $2.0 billion and $1.8 billion at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Letters of credit. Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by First Financial to guarantee the performance of a client to a third party. First Financial’s portfolio of standby letters of credit consists primarily of performance assurances made on behalf of clients who have a contractual commitment to produce or deliver goods or services. The risk to First Financial arises from its obligation to make payment in the event of the clients’ contractual default to produce the contracted good or service to a third party. First Financial has issued letters of credit (including standby letters of credit) aggregating $16.3 million and $22.8 million at December 31, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Management conducts regular reviews of these instruments on an individual client basis. Investments in Affordable housing projects. First Financial has made investments in certain qualified affordable housing projects. These projects are an indirect federal subsidy that provide tax incentives to encourage investment in the development, acquisition and rehabilitation of affordable rental housing, and allow investors to claim tax credits and other tax benefits (such as deductions from taxable income for operating losses) on their federal income tax returns. The principal risk associated with qualified affordable housing investments is the potential for noncompliance with the tax code requirements, such as, failure to rent property to qualified tenants, resulting in unavailability or recapture of the tax credits and other tax benefits. First Financial's affordable housing commitments totaled $31.5 million and $14.9 million as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The affordable housing investments resulted in $1.4 million and $1.1 million of tax credits for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. First Financial had no affordable housing contingent commitments as of December 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014 . Contingencies/Litigation – First Financial and its subsidiaries are engaged in various matters of litigation, assertions of improper or fraudulent loan practices or lending violations and other matters from time to time, and have a number of unresolved claims pending. Additionally, as part of the ordinary course of business, First Financial and its subsidiaries are parties to litigation involving claims to the ownership of funds in particular accounts, the collection of delinquent accounts, challenges to security interests in collateral and foreclosure interests, that is incidental to our regular business activities. While the ultimate liability with respect to these other litigation matters and claims cannot be determined at this time, First Financial believes that damages, if any, and other amounts relating to pending matters are not probable or cannot be reasonably estimated as of December 31, 2015 . Reserves are established for these various matters of litigation, when appropriate, under FASB ASC Topic 450, Contingencies, based in part upon the advice of legal counsel. First Financial had $1.3 million and $0.6 million of reserves related to litigation matters as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. |

The Company has evaluated the available evidence supporting the realization of its deferred tax assets and determined it is more likely than not that the assets will be realized and thus no valuation allowance was required at December 31, 2015 and 2014 . At December 31, 2015 and 2014 , First Financial had no FASB ASC Topic 740-10 unrecognized tax benefits recorded. First Financial does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase within the next twelve months. First Financial regularly reviews its tax positions and establishes reserves for income tax-related uncertainties based on estimates of whether it is more likely than not that the tax uncertainty would be sustained upon challenge by the appropriate tax authorities which would then result in additional taxes, penalties and interest due. These evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates and may be susceptible to significant change. Management determined that no reserve for income tax-related uncertainties was necessary as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 . First Financial and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as state and local income tax in several jurisdictions. The federal examination for the tax year 2012 was completed in the third quarter of 2015. There was no impact to the Company's financial position or results of operations as a result of this examination. Tax years prior to 2013 have been closed and are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations. Tax years 2013 and 2014 remain open to examination by the federal taxing authority. First Financial is no longer subject to state and local income tax examinations for years prior to 2011. Tax years 2011 through 2014 remain open to state and local examination by various other jurisdictions. |
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Compensation and Retirement Disclosure [Abstract] | |
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS | Employee Benefit Plans Pension plan. First Financial sponsors a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all employees and uses a December 31 measurement date for the plan. For all years presented, plan assets were primarily invested in publicly traded equity mutual funds and fixed income mutual funds. The pension plan does not directly own any shares of First Financial common stock or any other First Financial security or product. The investment objective of the Plan is to structure the assets to, as much as feasible, mirror the liabilities of the Plan. The Plan's asset allocation includes both equity and fixed income assets, with the aim to use the fixed income component to match the identified near and long-term plan distributions and the equity component to generate growth of capital to meet other future Plan liabilities. The determination of the overall expected long-term return on plan assets was based on the composition of plan assets and a consensus of estimates from similarly managed portfolios of expected future returns. Associates are eligible to request a lump sum distribution from the Company's pension plan at retirement or upon leaving the Company. As a result of lump sum distributions from the plan during 2013, First Financial was required to re-measure the plan's assets and liabilities and recognized pension settlement charges of $6.2 million . Consistent with FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation - Retirement Benefits, pension settlement charges are an acceleration of previously deferred costs that would have been recognized in future periods and are triggered when lump sum distributions exceed an annual accounting threshold for the plan. The accounting threshold for lump sum distributions reset on January 1, 2014 and the annual accounting threshold was not exceeded during 2014 or 2015. Therefore, First Financial recognized no pension settlement charges for the years ended December 31, 2014 or 2015 . As a result of the plan’s updated actuarial projections for 2015 , First Financial recorded income related to its pension plan of $1.0 million for 2015 and $1.1 million for 2014 compared to expense of $5.5 million for 2013 . First Financial made no cash contributions to the pension plan in 2013 , 2014 or 2015 .

Banking and Thrift [Abstract] | |
CAPITAL | Capital Risk-based capital. First Financial and its subsidiary, First Financial Bank, are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require First Financial to maintain minimum amounts and ratios as defined by the regulations of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2015 , that First Financial met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. At December 31, 2015 and 2014 , regulatory notifications categorized First Financial as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, First Financial must maintain minimum Total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There have been no conditions or events since those notifications that management believes has changed the Company's categorization. For purposes of calculating the leverage ratio, average assets represents quarterly average assets less assets ineligible for total risk-based capital including all or portions of intangible assets, mortgage servicing assets and the allowance for loan and lease losses. First Financial's Tier 1 capital is comprised of total shareholders' equity less unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available-for-sale, accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments-Debt and Equity Securities, and any amounts resulting from the application of FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation-Retirement Benefits, that are recorded within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), intangible assets and any valuation related to mortgage servicing rights. Total risk-based capital consists of Tier 1 capital plus the qualifying allowance for loan and lease losses and gross unrealized gains on equity securities. In 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System approved a final rule implementing changes intended to strengthen the regulatory capital framework for all banking organizations (Basel III) which became effective January 1, 2015, subject to a phase-in period for certain provisions. Basel III establishes and defines quantitative measures to ensure capital adequacy which require First Financial to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Common Equity tier 1 capital, total and tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and tier 1 capital to average assets (leverage ratio) as set forth in the table that follows. The rule includes a new minimum ratio of common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5% and a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets that will begin on January 1, 2016 at 0.625% and be phased-in over a four-year period, increasing by the same amount each subsequent January 1, until fully phased-in on January 1, 2019. Further, the minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets increased from 4.0% to 6.0% and all banks are now subject to a 4.0% minimum leverage ratio. The required total risk-based capital ratio is unchanged. Failure to maintain the required common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer will result in potential restrictions on a bank’s ability to pay dividends, repurchase stock and/or pay discretionary compensation to its employees. Management believes, as of December 31, 2015 , that First Financial met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject. As of December 31, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , the most recent regulatory notifications categorized First Financial as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There have been no conditions or events since those notifications that management believes has changed the Company's categorization. Consolidated regulatory capital ratios at December 31, 2015 , included the leverage ratio of 8.33% , common equity tier 1 capital ratio of 10.28% , tier 1 capital ratio of 10.29% and total capital ratio of 13.04% . All regulatory capital ratios exceeded the amounts necessary to be classified as “well capitalized,” and total regulatory capital exceeded the “minimum” requirement by $317.8 million on a consolidated basis. The revised capital requirements also provide strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments and change the method for calculating risk-weighted assets in an effort to better identify riskier assets, such as highly volatile commercial real estate and nonaccrual loans, requiring higher capital allocations. First Financial's tier 1 and total capital ratios decreased from 12.69% and 13.71% , respectively, as of December 31, 2014 to 10.29% and 13.04% as of December 31, 2015 . The decline in the tier 1 capital ratio was due primarily to an increase in risk-weighted assets resulting from the Oak Street acquisition, organic loan growth and the previously mentioned changes in the calculation of risk-weighted assets, as well as a reduction in tier 1 capital due to the addition of goodwill from the Oak Street acquisition. The total capital ratio was positively impacted by the issuance of subordinated notes during the third quarter, which qualify as tier 2 capital and offset higher risk-weighted assets during the period. The leverage ratio declined to 8.33% at December 31, 2015 compared to 9.44% as of December 31, 2014 and the Company’s tangible common equity ratio decreased from 9.02% at December 31, 2014 to 7.53% during the current quarter primarily due to the increase in goodwill associated with the acquisition of Oak Street. The following table presents the actual and required capital amounts and ratios as of December 31, 2015 under the Basel III Capital Rules. The minimum required capital amounts presented include the minimum required capital levels as of December 31, 2015 based on the phase-in provisions of the Basel III Capital Rules as well as the minimum required capital levels as of January 1, 2019 when the Basel III Capital Rules have been fully phased-in. Capital levels required to be considered well capitalized are based upon prompt corrective action regulations, as amended to reflect the changes under the Basel III Capital Rules.

This shelf registration allows First Financial to raise capital from time to time through the sale of various types of securities, subject to approval by the Company's board of directors, and expires on July 31, 2017. Under this shelf registration, First Financial issued $120.0 million of subordinated notes in 2015. Share repurchases. In October 2012, First Financial's board of directors approved a share repurchase plan under which the Company has the ability to repurchase up to 5,000,000 common shares. The Company repurchased 239,967 shares under the 2012 share repurchase plan during 2015 at an average price of $18.75 per share and 40,255 shares under this plan during 2014 at an average price of $17.32 . At December 31, 2015 , 3,509,133 common shares remained available for purchase under this repurchase plan. Preferred Stock. During the second quarter of 2014, First Financial's shareholders approved an amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation authorizing the Company to issue up to 10,000,000 preferred shares. The Company has not issued and has no current plans, arrangements or agreements to issue any of the authorized preferred shares at this time. |

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |
STOCK OPTIONS AND AWARDS | Stock Options and Awards First Financial follows the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which requires measurement of compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation expense over the service period for all awards expected to vest. Share-based compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock awards included in salaries and employee benefits expense for the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $4.0 million . Total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation was $6.7 million at December 31, 2015 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years . As of December 31, 2015 , First Financial had five stock-based compensation plans. The 1999 Stock Incentive Plan for Officers and Employees and the 1999 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the 1999 Plans) provides incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and stock awards to certain key employees and non-qualified stock options to non-employee directors of First Financial for up to 7,507,500 common shares. The options become exercisable at a rate of 25% per year on the anniversary date of the grant and remain outstanding for 10 years after the initial grant date with all options expiring at the end of the exercise period. No additional awards may be granted under the 1999 Plans. On June 15, 2009, First Financial shareholders approved the 2009 Employee Stock Plan and the 2009 Non-Employee Director Plan providing for the issuance of 1,500,000 shares and 75,000 shares, respectively. The 2009 Employee Stock Plan expired on June 15, 2012, and thus, no new awards may be granted under this plan. On May 22, 2012, shareholders approved the First Financial Bancorp. 2012 Stock Plan and amendments to the 2009 Non-Employee Director Plan. At December 31, 2015 , there were 882,560 shares available for issuance under the 2012 stock plan and no shares were available for issuance under the 2009 Non-Employee Director Plan. First Financial utilizes the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of its stock options. In addition to the stock option strike price, the Black-Scholes valuation model incorporates the following assumptions: the expected dividend yield based on historical dividend payouts; the expected stock price volatility based on the historical volatility of Company stock for a period approximating the expected life of the options; the risk-free rate based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the option; and the expected option life represented by the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding, and is based on historical trends. No options were granted in 2015 , 2014 or 2013 . Stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2015 , is summarized as follows: (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) Number of shares Weighted average exercise price Weighted average remaining contractual life Aggregate intrinsic value Outstanding at beginning of year 413,126 $ 14.32 Granted 0 0.00 Exercised (93,712 ) 13.40 Forfeited or expired (79,516 ) 17.57 Outstanding at end of year 239,898 $ 13.60 1.5 years $ 1,072 Exercisable at end of year 239,898 $ 13.60 1.5 years $ 1,072 The intrinsic value of stock options is defined as the difference between the current market value and the exercise price. First Financial uses treasury shares purchased under the Company's share repurchase program to satisfy share-based exercises. 2015 2014 2013 Total intrinsic value of options exercised $ 492 $ 1,479 $ 3,247 Cash received from exercises $ 744 $ 1,056 $ 73 Tax benefit from exercises $ 1,488 $ 1,475 $ 1,422 Restricted stock awards have historically been recorded as deferred compensation, a component of shareholders' equity, at the fair value of these awards as of the grant date and amortized on a straight-line basis to salaries and benefits expense over the specified vesting periods, which is currently three years for employees and one year for non-employee directors. The vesting of these awards for employees and non-employee directors only require a service period to be met, however, beginning in 2013, additional awards were granted which also require certain performance measures to be met. Activity in restricted stock for the previous three years ended December 31 is summarized as follows: 2015 2014 2013 Number of shares Weighted average grant date fair value Number of shares Weighted average grant date fair value Number of shares Weighted average grant date fair value Nonvested at beginning of year 494,452 $ 16.43 456,032 $ 16.00 518,756 $ 16.65 Granted 439,674 17.65 273,933 16.80 302,175 15.65 Vested (227,905 ) 16.45 (215,796 ) 16.19 (263,302 ) 16.63 Forfeited (62,580 ) 16.58 (19,717 ) 16.40 (101,597 ) 16.26 Nonvested at end of year 643,641 $ 17.21 494,452 $ 16.43 456,032 $ 16.00 The fair value of restricted stock is determined based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of First Financial's common stock. The total fair value of restricted stock vested during 2015 was $3.8 million . |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES | Fair Value Disclosures Fair Value Measurement The fair value framework as disclosed in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Topic of FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments (Fair Value Topic), includes a hierarchy which focuses on prioritizing the inputs used in valuation techniques. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), a lower priority to observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 2), and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, First Financial looks to active markets to price identical assets or liabilities whenever possible and classifies such items in Level 1. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, First Financial looks to observable market data for similar assets and liabilities and classifies such items as Level 2. Certain assets and liabilities are not actively traded in observable markets and First Financial must use alternative techniques, based on unobservable inputs, to determine the fair value and classifies such items as Level 3. The level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant in the fair value measurement. The following methods, assumptions and valuation techniques were used by First Financial to measure different financial assets and liabilities at fair value and in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments. Cash and short-term investments. The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and short-term investments, such as federal funds sold, approximated the fair value of those instruments. The Company classifies cash and short-term investments in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Investment securities. Investment securities classified as trading and available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar investment securities. First Financial compiles prices from various sources who may apply such techniques as matrix pricing to determine the value of identical or similar investment securities (Level 2). Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique widely used in the banking industry to value investment securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific investment securities but rather relying on the investment securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted investment securities. Any investment securities not valued based upon the methods above are considered Level 3. First Financial utilizes values provided by third-party pricing vendors to price the investment securities portfolio in accordance with the fair value hierarchy of the Fair Value Topic and reviews the pricing methodologies utilized by the pricing vendors to ensure that the fair value determination is consistent with the applicable accounting guidance. First Financial’s month-end pricing process includes a series of quality assurance activities where prices are compared to recent market conditions, historical prices and other independent pricing services. Further, the Company periodically validates the fair values of a sample of securities in the portfolio by comparing the fair values to prices from other independent sources for the same or similar securities. First Financial analyzes unusual or significant variances, conducts additional research with the pricing vendor, and if necessary, takes appropriate action based on its findings. The results of the quality assurance process are incorporated into the selection of pricing providers by the portfolio manager. Loans held for sale. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. These loans currently consist of one-to-four family residential real estate loans originated for sale to qualified third parties. Fair value is based on the market price or contractual price to be received from these third parties, which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, First Financial records any fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis. Gains and losses on the sale of loans are recorded as net gains from sales of loans within noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Loans and leases. The fair value of C&I, commercial real estate, residential real estate and consumer loans were 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 maturities or repricing frequency. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of loans as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. Impaired loans are specifically reviewed for purposes of determining the appropriate amount of impairment to be allocated to the allowance for loan and lease losses. Fair value is generally measured based on the value of the collateral securing the loans. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed third-party appraiser (Level 3). The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable borrower financial statements if not considered significant. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivable collateral are based on borrower financial statement balances or aging reports on a discounted basis as appropriate (Level 3). Impaired loans allocated to the allowance for loan and lease losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan and lease losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Fair values for purchased impaired loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that consider factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, whether or not the loan was amortizing and a discount rate reflecting the Company's assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates. These loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. First Financial estimates the cash flows expected to be collected on these loans based upon the expected remaining life of the underlying loans, which includes the effects of estimated prepayments. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. Fair values for acquired loans accounted for outside of FASB ASC Topic 310-30 were estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities or repricing frequency. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value. FDIC indemnification asset. Fair value of the FDIC indemnification asset was estimated using projected cash flows related to the loss sharing agreements based on expected reimbursements for losses and the applicable loss sharing percentages. The expected cash flows are discounted to reflect the uncertainty of the timing and receipt of the loss sharing reimbursement from the FDIC. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The five year period of loss protection expired for the majority of First Financial's covered commercial loans and covered OREO effective October 1, 2014. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of the indemnification asset as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money-market deposits represents the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The carrying amounts for variable-rate CDs approximated their fair values at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-rate CDs was estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation which applies the interest rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of deposit liabilities as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Borrowings. The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings approximate their fair values. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of short-term borrowings as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation which utilizes the interest rates currently offered for borrowings of similar remaining maturities. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of long-term debt as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Derivatives. The fair values of derivative instruments are based primarily on a net present value calculation of the cash flows related to the interest rate swaps at the reporting date, using primarily observable market inputs such as interest rate yield curves. The discounted net present value calculated represents the cost to terminate the swap if First Financial should choose to do so. Additionally, First Financial utilizes a vendor-developed, proprietary model to value the credit risk component of both the derivative assets and liabilities. The credit valuation adjustment is recorded as an adjustment to the fair value of the derivative asset or liability on the reporting date. Derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair values of First Financial's financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis in the consolidated financial statements were as follows: Carrying Estimated fair value (Dollars in thousands) value Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 December 31, 2015 Financial assets Cash and short-term investments $ 148,575 $ 148,575 $ 148,575 $ 0 $ 0 Investment securities held-to-maturity 726,259 731,951 0 731,951 0 Other investments 53,725 53,725 0 53,725 0 Loans held for sale 20,957 20,957 0 20,957 0 Loans and leases, net of ALLL 5,335,362 5,381,065 0 0 5,381,065 FDIC indemnification asset 17,630 9,756 0 0 9,756 Financial liabilities Deposits Noninterest-bearing $ 1,413,404 $ 1,413,404 $ 0 $ 1,413,404 $ 0 Interest-bearing demand 1,414,291 1,414,291 0 1,414,291 0 Savings 1,945,805 1,945,805 0 1,945,805 0 Time 1,406,124 1,406,489 0 1,406,489 0 Total deposits 6,179,624 6,179,989 0 6,179,989 0 Short-term borrowings 938,425 938,425 938,425 0 0 Long-term debt 119,540 118,691 0 118,691 0 Carrying Estimated Fair Value (Dollars in thousands) Value Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 December 31, 2014 Financial assets Cash and short-term investments $ 132,752 $ 132,752 $ 132,752 $ 0 $ 0 Investment securities held-to-maturity 867,996 874,749 0 874,749 0 Other investments 52,626 52,626 0 52,626 0 Loans held for sale 11,005 11,005 0 11,005 0 Loans and leases, net of ALLL 4,724,377 4,763,619 0 0 4,763,619 FDIC indemnification asset 22,666 12,449 0 0 12,449 Financial liabilities Deposits Noninterest-bearing $ 1,285,527 $ 1,285,527 $ 0 $ 1,285,527 $ 0 Interest-bearing demand 1,225,378 1,225,378 0 1,225,378 0 Savings 1,889,473 1,889,473 0 1,889,473 0 Time 1,255,364 1,254,070 0 1,254,070 0 Total deposits 5,655,742 5,654,448 0 5,654,448 0 Short-term borrowings 661,392 661,392 661,392 0 0 Long-term debt 48,241 49,674 0 49,674 0 The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as follows: Fair Value Measurements Using Assets/Liabilities (Dollars in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 at Fair Value December 31, 2015 Assets Derivatives $ 0 $ 14,111 $ 0 $ 14,111 Available-for-sale investment securities 8,583 1,182,059 0 1,190,642 Total $ 8,583 $ 1,196,170 $ 0 $ 1,204,753 Liabilities Derivatives $ 0 $ 14,243 $ 0 $ 14,243 Fair Value Measurements Using Assets/Liabilities (Dollars in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 at Fair Value December 31, 2014 Assets Derivatives $ 0 $ 11,399 $ 0 $ 11,399 Available-for-sale investment securities 8,406 832,062 0 840,468 Total $ 8,406 $ 843,461 $ 0 $ 851,867 Liabilities Derivatives $ 0 $ 13,662 $ 0 $ 13,662 Certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS | Business Combinations First Financial completed the following business combinations in 2015 and 2014: Oak Street. Oak Street is a nationwide lender based in Indianapolis, Indiana that provides loans, secured by commissions and cash collateral accounts, exclusively to insurance agents and brokers to grow their agency business and maximize their book-of-business value. Oak Street's lending activities are driven by agency acquisitions, agency ownership transitions, the purchase by agencies of books of business, as well as financing general working capital needs. The underwriting of these loans involves analyses of collateral (through use of Oak Street's proprietary software system) that consists of insurance commissions revenue, which collateral is then monitored by Oak Street Funding throughout the life of the loans. First Financial acquired Oak Street for cash consideration and concurrent with the close of the transaction, First Financial paid off all of Oak Street's existing long-term debt, replacing higher-cost funding with the Company's lower-cost funding sources. First Bexley. Founded in 2006 and conducting operations out of one full service branch location in Bexley, Ohio, First Bexley served commercial and consumer clients throughout Columbus and central Ohio. Under the merger agreement, First Financial acquired First Bexley in a cash and stock transaction in which First Bexley was merged with and into First Financial Bank on August 7, 2014. Insight. Founded in 2006 and conducting operations out of one full service location in Worthington, Ohio, and a mortgage origination office in Newark, Ohio, Insight provided commercial and consumer banking services to clients throughout Columbus and central Ohio. Under the merger agreement, First Financial acquired Insight in a cash and stock transaction in which Insight merged with and into First Financial Bank on August 7, 2014. Guernsey. Headquartered in Worthington, Ohio, Guernsey conducted operations out of three full service branches, and served commercial and consumer clients throughout Columbus and central Ohio. Under the terms of the merger agreement, First Financial acquired Guernsey for cash consideration and the transfer of a single bank-owned property to Guernsey's sole shareholder. The Company also paid off all amounts due under a promissory note to a third party on behalf of Guernsey. The Guernsey Bank, an Ohio state chartered bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of Guernsey, merged with and into First Financial as part of the agreement on August 21, 2014. Each of the acquisitions discussed above were accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisitions as additional information relative to closing date fair values become available. The Company finalized fair values during the third quarter of 2015 for the First Bexley, Insight and Guernsey acquisitions, with no changes to the originally recorded adjustments. The Company continues to finalize the fair values of loans, intangible assets and liabilities for the Oak Street acquisition. As a result, the fair value adjustments for Oak Street are preliminary and may change as information becomes available, but no later than August 2016. The following tables provide the purchase price calculation as of the acquisition dates and the identifiable assets purchased and the liabilities assumed at their estimated fair value. These fair value measurements are based on third-party valuations. 2015 (Dollars in thousands) Oak Street Purchase consideration Cash consideration $ 110,000 Payoff of long-term borrowings 197,839 Total purchase consideration $ 307,839 Assets acquired Cash $ 2,248 Loans 237,377 Intangible assets 813 Other assets 2,633 Total assets $ 243,071 Liabilities assumed Other liabilities 1,577 Total liabilities $ 1,577 Net identifiable assets $ 241,494 Goodwill $ 66,345 2014 (Dollars in thousands) First Bexley Insight Guernsey Total Purchase consideration Cash consideration $ 10,810 $ 9,880 $ 13,500 $ 34,190 Stock consideration 33,699 26,730 0 60,429 Other consideration 0 0 2,523 2,523 Total purchase consideration $ 44,509 $ 36,610 $ 16,023 $ 97,142 Assets acquired Loans $ 314,807 $ 219,008 $ 72,448 $ 606,263 Intangible assets 1,280 1,277 999 3,556 Other assets 25,456 30,799 61,238 117,493 Total assets $ 341,543 $ 251,084 $ 134,685 $ 727,312 Liabilities assumed Deposits $ 273,860 $ 179,330 $ 115,415 $ 568,605 Borrowings 40,000 44,149 10,742 94,891 Other liabilities 1,454 7,303 606 9,363 Total liabilities $ 315,314 $ 230,782 $ 126,763 $ 672,859 Net identifiable assets $ 26,229 $ 20,302 $ 7,922 $ 54,453 Goodwill $ 18,280 $ 16,308 $ 8,101 $ 42,689 The goodwill arising from the Oak Street acquisition reflects the business’s high growth potential and scalable platform. The acquisition leverages First Financial’s excess capital and is expected to provide additional revenue growth and diversification. The goodwill arising from the First Bexley, Insight and Guernsey acquisitions reflects the increased market share and related synergies that are expected to result from the acquisitions. The goodwill arising from the Oak Street, First Bexley and Insight transactions is not deductible for income tax purposes as the mergers were accounted for as tax-free exchanges. The tax-free exchanges resulted in a carryover of tax attributes and tax basis to the Company's subsequent income tax filings and was adjusted for any fair value adjustments required in accounting for the acquisitions. The goodwill arising from the Guernsey transaction is deductible for tax purposes as the Guernsey transaction was considered a taxable exchange.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN30
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2015 | |
Basis of Presentation Policy | Basis of presentation. The Consolidated Financial Statements of First Financial Bancorp. (First Financial or the Company), a bank holding company, principally serving Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, include the accounts and operations of First Financial and its wholly owned subsidiary, First Financial Bank, N.A. (First Financial Bank or the Bank). All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications of prior years' amounts have been made to conform to current year presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on net earnings. |
Use of Estimates, Policy | Use of estimates. The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. Actual realized amounts could differ materially from those estimates. |
Investment, Policy | Investment securities. First Financial classifies debt and equity securities into three categories: held-to-maturity, trading and available-for-sale. Management determines the appropriate classification of investment securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as appropriate. Investment securities are classified as held-to-maturity when First Financial has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost. Investment securities classified as trading are held principally for resale in the near term and are recorded at fair value. Gains or losses, either unrealized or realized, are reported in noninterest income. Quoted market prices are used to determine the fair value of trading securities. Investment securities not classified as either held-to-maturity or trading are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders' equity. The amortized cost of investment securities classified as either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity, or in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security. Such amortization and accretion are considered an adjustment to the yield on the security and included in interest income from investments. Interest and dividends are included in interest income from investment securities. Realized gains and losses are based on the amortized cost of the security sold using the specific identification method. Available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities are reviewed quarterly for potential impairment. In performing this review, management considers the length of time and extent to which the fair value of the security has been less than amortized cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and the ability and intent of First Financial to hold the security for a period sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. If the fair value of a security is less than the amortized cost and the impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary, the security is written down, establishing a new and reduced cost basis. The related charge is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Other investments include holdings in Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) stock and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock. FRB and FHLB stock are both carried at cost. |
Finance, Loan and Lease Receivables, Held-for-sale, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Loans held for sale. Loans held for sale consists of residential real estate loans newly originated for the purpose of sale to third parties, and in certain circumstances, loans previously originated that have been specifically identified by management for sale based on predetermined criteria. Loans originated for sale are immediately classified as held for sale upon origination and are considered to be at fair market value due to the commitment to sell in a short timeframe. Loans transferred to held for sale status are carried at the lower of cost or fair value with any difference charged to the allowance for loan and lease losses. Any subsequent change in the carrying value of transferred loans, not to exceed original cost, is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Commitments and Contingencies, Policy | Reserve for unfunded commitments . First Financial maintains a reserve that it considers sufficient to absorb probable losses inherent in standby letters of credit and outstanding loan commitments and is included in Accrued interest and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The determination of the adequacy of the reserve is based upon an evaluation of the unfunded credit facilities, including consideration of historical commitment utilization experience, credit risk rating and historical loss rates, consistent with the allowance for loan and lease losses methodology previously discussed. Adjustments to the reserve for unfunded commitments are included in Other noninterest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. First Financial offers a variety of financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to its clients to assist them in meeting their requirement for liquidity and credit enhancement. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and outstanding commitments to extend credit. GAAP does not require these financial instruments to be recorded in the Consolidated Financial Statements. First Financial utilizes the same credit policies in issuing commitments and conditional obligations as it does for credit instruments recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. First Financial’s exposure to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for standby letters of credit and outstanding commitments to extend credit, is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments. |
FDIC Indemnification Assets Policy | FDIC indemnification asset. The FDIC indemnification asset results from the loss sharing agreements entered into in conjunction with First Financial's FDIC-assisted transactions, and is measured separately from the related assets covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC as it is not contractually embedded in those assets and is not transferable should First Financial choose to dispose of the covered assets. The FDIC indemnification asset represents expected reimbursements from the FDIC for losses on covered assets. Pursuant to the terms of the loss sharing agreements, covered assets are subject to stated loss thresholds whereby the FDIC will reimburse First Financial for 80% of losses up to the stated loss thresholds, and 95% of losses in excess of the thresholds. The FDIC indemnification asset was recorded at its estimated fair value at the time of the FDIC-assisted transactions. Fair values were estimated using projected cash flows related to the loss sharing agreements based on the expected reimbursements for losses and the applicable loss sharing percentages. These cash flows were discounted to reflect the uncertainty of the timing of the loss sharing reimbursement from the FDIC. The accounting for the FDIC indemnification asset is closely related to the accounting for the underlying, indemnified assets as well as on-going assessment of the collectibility of the assets. First Financial re-estimates the expected indemnification asset cash flows in conjunction with the periodic re-estimation of cash flows on covered loans accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 310-30. Improvements in cash flow expectations on covered loans generally result in a related decline in the expected indemnification cash flows and are reflected as a yield adjustment on the indemnification asset. Declines in cash flow expectations on covered loans generally result in an increase in expected indemnification cash flows and are reflected as both FDIC loss sharing income and an increase to the indemnification asset. First Financial performs a collectibility assessment which includes evaluation of claims activity with the FDIC, adjustments to the indemnification asset from the accelerated discount on covered loans, the yield on the indemnification asset in relation to the yield on the underlying covered loans and the remaining term of the loss sharing agreements. Changes in the assessed collectibility of the indemnification asset, if any, are recognized as FDIC indemnification impairment in Noninterest expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy | Premises and equipment. Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are principally computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Useful lives generally range from 10 to 40 years for building and building improvements; 3 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment; and 3 to 5 years for software, hardware and data handling equipment. Land improvements are depreciated over 20 years and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the base term of the respective lease or the useful life of the asset. Premises and equipment are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy | Goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets. Under accounting for business combinations, the net assets of entities acquired by First Financial are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. The excess cost of the acquisition over the fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives, if any, are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment tests. |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Goodwill, Policy | Goodwill. Assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination are recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess cost of the acquisition over the fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, but is measured for impairment on an annual basis as of October 1 of each year, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit may be below its carrying value. First Financial performed its annual impairment test of goodwill as of October 1, 2015 and no impairment was indicated. As of December 31, 2015, no events or changes in circumstances indicated that the fair value of a reporting unit was below its carrying value. |
Core Deposit Intangibles Policy | Core deposit intangibles. Core deposit intangibles represent the estimated value of acquired relationships with deposit customers. The estimated fair value of core deposit intangibles are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gives appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, reserve requirements and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits. Core deposit intangibles are amortized on an accelerated basis over their useful lives. |
Affordable Housing Program Policy | Affordable housing projects. First Financial has made investments in certain qualified affordable housing projects. These projects are an indirect federal subsidy that provide tax incentives to encourage investment in the development, acquisition and rehabilitation of affordable rental housing, and allow investors to claim tax credits and other tax benefits (such as deductions from taxable income for operating losses) on their federal income tax returns. The principal risk associated with qualified affordable housing investments is the potential for noncompliance with the tax code requirements, such as, failure to rent property to qualified tenants, resulting in unavailability or recapture of the tax credits and other tax benefits. Investments in affordable housing projects are included in Accrued income and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. |
Income Tax, Policy | Income taxes. First Financial and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Each subsidiary provides for income taxes on a separate return basis, and remits to First Financial amounts determined to be currently payable. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Interest and penalties on income tax assessments or income tax refunds are recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements as a component of noninterest expense. |
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, Pensions, Policy | Pension. First Financial sponsors a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all employees. The measurement of the accrued benefit liability and the annual pension expense involves actuarial and economic assumptions. The assumptions used in pension accounting include those related to the discount rates, the expected return on plan assets and the rate of compensation increase. |
Derivatives, Policy | Derivative instruments. First Financial accounts for its derivative financial instruments in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. FASB ASC Topic 815 requires all derivative instruments to be carried at fair value on the balance sheet. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. First Financial utilizes interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to offer commercial borrowers products that meet their needs, but are also designed to achieve First Financial’s desired interest rate risk profile. First Financial utilizes interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges to manage the variability of cash flows, primarily net interest income, attributable to changes in interest rates. Back to back swaps - First Financial enters into swap agreements with commercial borrowers and simultaneously enters into offsetting swap agreements, with substantially matching terms, with institutional counterparties. These matched interest rate swap agreements generally involve the receipt by First Financial of floating rate amounts from the counterparties in exchange for payments to these counterparties by First Financial of fixed rate amounts received from commercial borrowers over the life of the agreements. This results in First Financial’s loan customers receiving fixed rate funding, while providing First Financial with a floating rate asset. First Financial's matched interest rate swaps qualify as derivatives, but are not designated as hedging instruments. The net interest receivable or payable on matched interest rate swaps is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to interest income. The fair values of back to back swaps are included within Accrued interest and other assets and Accrued interest and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Pay fixed interest rate swaps - For unmatched, pay fixed interest rate swaps, which qualify for hedge accounting, the corresponding fair-value adjustment is included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in the carrying value of the hedged item. The net interest receivable or payable on unmatched interest rate swaps is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to the interest income of the hedged item. Gains and losses from derivatives not considered effective in hedging the change in fair value of the hedged item, if any, are recognized in income immediately. Cash flow hedges - The net interest receivable or payable on an interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to interest income or interest expense, while the fair value is included within Accrued interest and other assets or Accrued interest and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from derivatives not considered effective in hedging the cash flows related to the hedged items, if any, are recognized in income immediately. Credit derivatives - In conjunction with participating interests in commercial loans, First Financial periodically enters into risk participation agreements with counterparties whereby First Financial assumes a portion of the credit exposure associated with an interest rate swap on the participated loan in exchange for a fee. Under these agreements, First Financial will make payments to the counterparty if the loan customer defaults on its obligation to perform under the interest rate swap contract with the counterparty. The fair value of these agreements were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Accrued interest and other liabilities. Mortgage derivatives - First Financial enters into IRLCs and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors, which are considered derivatives. When borrowers secure an IRLC with First Financial and the loan is intended to be sold, First Financial will enter into forward commitments for the future delivery of the loans to third party investors in order to hedge against the effect of changes in interest rates impacting IRLCs and and Loans held for sale. The fair value of these agreements was recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Accrued interest and other assets. Like other financial instruments, derivatives contain an element of credit risk, which is the possibility that First Financial will incur a loss because a counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. Generally, the credit risk associated with interest rate swaps is significantly less than the notional values associated with these instruments. The notional values represent contractual balances on which the calculations of amounts to be exchanged are based. First Financial manages this credit risk through counterparty credit policies. |
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy | Stock-based compensation. First Financial grants stock-based awards, including restricted stock awards for and options to purchase the Company’s common stock. Stock option grants are for a fixed number of shares to employees and directors with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The amortization of stock-based compensation expense reflects estimated forfeitures, adjusted for actual forfeiture experience. As compensation expense is recognized, a deferred tax asset is recorded that represents an estimate of the future tax deduction from exercise. At the time stock-based awards are exercised, canceled or expire, First Financial may be required to recognize an adjustment to tax expense. |
Earnings Per Share, Policy | Earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, unvested shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents, which consist of common stock issuable under the assumed exercise of stock options granted under First Financial's stock-based compensation plans and the assumed conversion of common stock warrants, are calculated using the treasury stock method. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy | Cash and due from banks. Cash and due from banks consist of currency, coin and cash items due from banks. Cash items due from banks include noninterest bearing deposits held at other banks. |
Impaired Financing Receivable, Policy | Loans classified as nonaccrual and loans modified as TDRs are considered impaired. |
Loans and Leases Receivable, Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure, Policy | OREO is comprised of properties acquired by the Company primarily through the loan foreclosure or repossession process, or other resolution activities that result in partial or total satisfaction of problem loans. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy | Fair Value Measurement The fair value framework as disclosed in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Topic of FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments (Fair Value Topic), includes a hierarchy which focuses on prioritizing the inputs used in valuation techniques. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), a lower priority to observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 2), and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, First Financial looks to active markets to price identical assets or liabilities whenever possible and classifies such items in Level 1. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, First Financial looks to observable market data for similar assets and liabilities and classifies such items as Level 2. Certain assets and liabilities are not actively traded in observable markets and First Financial must use alternative techniques, based on unobservable inputs, to determine the fair value and classifies such items as Level 3. The level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant in the fair value measurement. The following methods, assumptions and valuation techniques were used by First Financial to measure different financial assets and liabilities at fair value and in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments. Cash and short-term investments. The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and short-term investments, such as federal funds sold, approximated the fair value of those instruments. The Company classifies cash and short-term investments in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Investment securities. Investment securities classified as trading and available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar investment securities. First Financial compiles prices from various sources who may apply such techniques as matrix pricing to determine the value of identical or similar investment securities (Level 2). Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique widely used in the banking industry to value investment securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific investment securities but rather relying on the investment securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted investment securities. Any investment securities not valued based upon the methods above are considered Level 3. First Financial utilizes values provided by third-party pricing vendors to price the investment securities portfolio in accordance with the fair value hierarchy of the Fair Value Topic and reviews the pricing methodologies utilized by the pricing vendors to ensure that the fair value determination is consistent with the applicable accounting guidance. First Financial’s month-end pricing process includes a series of quality assurance activities where prices are compared to recent market conditions, historical prices and other independent pricing services. Further, the Company periodically validates the fair values of a sample of securities in the portfolio by comparing the fair values to prices from other independent sources for the same or similar securities. First Financial analyzes unusual or significant variances, conducts additional research with the pricing vendor, and if necessary, takes appropriate action based on its findings. The results of the quality assurance process are incorporated into the selection of pricing providers by the portfolio manager. Loans held for sale. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. These loans currently consist of one-to-four family residential real estate loans originated for sale to qualified third parties. Fair value is based on the market price or contractual price to be received from these third parties, which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, First Financial records any fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis. Gains and losses on the sale of loans are recorded as net gains from sales of loans within noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Loans and leases. The fair value of C&I, commercial real estate, residential real estate and consumer loans were 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 maturities or repricing frequency. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of loans as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. Impaired loans are specifically reviewed for purposes of determining the appropriate amount of impairment to be allocated to the allowance for loan and lease losses. Fair value is generally measured based on the value of the collateral securing the loans. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed third-party appraiser (Level 3). The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable borrower financial statements if not considered significant. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivable collateral are based on borrower financial statement balances or aging reports on a discounted basis as appropriate (Level 3). Impaired loans allocated to the allowance for loan and lease losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan and lease losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Fair values for purchased impaired loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that consider factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, whether or not the loan was amortizing and a discount rate reflecting the Company's assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates. These loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. First Financial estimates the cash flows expected to be collected on these loans based upon the expected remaining life of the underlying loans, which includes the effects of estimated prepayments. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. Fair values for acquired loans accounted for outside of FASB ASC Topic 310-30 were estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities or repricing frequency. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value. FDIC indemnification asset. Fair value of the FDIC indemnification asset was estimated using projected cash flows related to the loss sharing agreements based on expected reimbursements for losses and the applicable loss sharing percentages. The expected cash flows are discounted to reflect the uncertainty of the timing and receipt of the loss sharing reimbursement from the FDIC. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The five year period of loss protection expired for the majority of First Financial's covered commercial loans and covered OREO effective October 1, 2014. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of the indemnification asset as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money-market deposits represents the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The carrying amounts for variable-rate CDs approximated their fair values at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-rate CDs was estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation which applies the interest rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of deposit liabilities as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Borrowings. The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings approximate their fair values. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of short-term borrowings as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation which utilizes the interest rates currently offered for borrowings of similar remaining maturities. The Company classifies the estimated fair value of long-term debt as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Derivatives. The fair values of derivative instruments are based primarily on a net present value calculation of the cash flows related to the interest rate swaps at the reporting date, using primarily observable market inputs such as interest rate yield curves. The discounted net present value calculated represents the cost to terminate the swap if First Financial should choose to do so. Additionally, First Financial utilizes a vendor-developed, proprietary model to value the credit risk component of both the derivative assets and liabilities. The credit valuation adjustment is recorded as an adjustment to the fair value of the derivative asset or liability on the reporting date. Derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. |
Segment Reporting, Policy | Segments and related information. While the Company monitors the operating results of its four lines of business, the operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, and consistent with prior years, all of the Company's operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. |
Credit Risk | |
Derivatives, Methods of Accounting, Hedging Derivatives | First Financial manages this market value credit risk through counterparty credit policies. These policies require the Company to maintain a total derivative notional position of less than 35% of assets, total credit exposure of less than 3% of capital and no single counterparty credit risk exposure greater than $20.0 million . |
Non Covered Loans | |
Finance, Loans and Leases Receivable, Policy | Loans and leases, excluding purchased impaired loans. Loans and leases for which First Financial has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or payoff, are classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as loans and leases. Except for loans which are subject to fair value requirements, loans and leases are carried at the principal amount outstanding, net of unamortized deferred loan origination fees and costs, and net of unearned income. Loan origination and commitment fees received, as well as certain direct loan origination costs paid, are deferred, and the net amount is amortized as an adjustment to the related loan's yield. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, the accrual of interest income is discontinued and previously accrued, but unpaid interest is reversed. Any payments received while a loan is classified as nonaccrual are applied as a reduction to the carrying value of the loan. A loan may return to accrual status if collection of future principal and interest payments is no longer doubtful. |
Loans and Leases Receivable, Allowance for Loan Losses Policy | Allowance for loan and lease losses. For each reporting period, management maintains the ALLL at a level that it considers sufficient to absorb probable loan and lease losses inherent in the portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the ALLL based on historical loss experience as well as other significant factors such as composition of the portfolio, economic conditions, geographic footprint, the results of periodic internal and external evaluations of delinquent, nonaccrual and classified loans and any other adverse situations that may affect a specific borrower's ability to repay (including the timing of future payments). This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires utilizing material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change. Management's determination of the adequacy of the ALLL is based on an assessment of the probable loan and lease losses inherent in the portfolio given the conditions at the time. The ALLL is generally increased by provision expense and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries of amounts previously charged-off. Loans are charged off when management believes that the collection of the principal amount owed in full, either through payments from the borrower or from the liquidation of collateral, is unlikely. In the commercial portfolio, which includes time and demand notes, tax-exempt loans, C&I, construction, commercial real estate, mezzanine loans, and lease financing, loan and lease relationships greater than $250,000 that are considered impaired, or designated as a TDR, are evaluated to determine the need for a specific allowance based on the borrower's overall financial condition, resources, payment record, guarantor support and the realizable value of any collateral. The allowance for non-impaired commercial loan and lease and impaired commercial loan and lease relationships less than $250,000 includes a process of estimating the probable losses inherent in the portfolio by loan type, based on First Financial's internal system of credit risk ratings and historical loss data. These estimates may also be adjusted for management's estimate of probable losses dependent upon trends in the values of the underlying collateral, delinquent and nonaccrual loans, prevailing economic conditions, changes in lending strategies and other influencing factors. Consumer loans are generally evaluated by loan type, as these loans exhibit homogeneous characteristics. The allowance for consumer loans, which includes residential real estate, installment, home equity, credit card loans and overdrafts, is established by estimating losses inherent in each particular category of consumer loans. The estimate of losses is primarily based on historical loss rates for each category, as well as trends in delinquent and nonaccrual loans, prevailing economic conditions and other significant influencing factors. Consumer loans greater than $100,000 classified as TDRs are individually evaluated to determine an appropriate allowance. |
Other Real Estate Owned Policy | Other real estate owned. OREO represents properties acquired by the Company primarily through the loan foreclosure or repossession process, or other resolution activity that results in partial or total satisfaction of problem loans. OREO properties are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated disposal costs (net realizable value) upon acquisition. Losses arising at the time of acquisition of such properties are charged against the ALLL. Management performs periodic valuations to assess the adequacy of the recorded OREO balances and subsequent write-downs in the carrying value of OREO properties are expensed as incurred. Improvements to OREO properties may be capitalized if the improvements contribute to the overall value of the property, but may not be capitalized in excess of the net realizable value of the property. When management disposes of an OREO property, any gains or losses realized at the time of disposal are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Loans and Leases Receivable, Nonaccrual Loan and Lease Status, Policy | Nonaccrual. Loans are classified as nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, collection of principal or interest is doubtful or when principal or interest payments are 90 days or more past due. Generally, loans are classified as nonaccrual due to the continued failure to adhere to contractual payment terms by the borrower coupled with other pertinent factors, such as, insufficient collateral value. The accrual of interest income is discontinued and previously accrued, but unpaid interest is reversed when a loan is classified as nonaccrual. Any payments received while a loan is on nonaccrual status are applied as a reduction to the carrying value of the loan. A loan may be returned to accrual status if collection of future principal and interest payments is no longer doubtful. |
Covered Loans | |
Finance, Loans and Leases Receivable, Policy | Acquired loans. Acquired loans are recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. Estimated fair values for acquired loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers various factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, interest rate, term of loan, whether or not the loan was amortizing and a discount rate reflecting the Company's assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates. Acquired loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. Certain loans acquired in FDIC-assisted transactions were initially covered under loss sharing agreements and are referred to as covered loans during the indemnification period. Subsequent to the indemnification period, they are referred to as formerly covered loans. First Financial evaluates acquired loans for impairment in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Acquired loans with evidence of credit deterioration since origination are accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 310-30 and are referred to as purchased impaired loans. Interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying value of the loans and the expected cash flows (accretable difference) is recognized on all purchased impaired loans. For purposes of applying the guidance under FASB ASC Topic 310-30, First Financial groups acquired loans into pools based on common risk characteristics. Expected cash flows are re-estimated periodically for all purchased impaired loans. The cash flows expected to be collected are estimated based upon the expected remaining life of the underlying loans, which includes the effects of estimated prepayments. Generally, a decline in expected cash flows for a pool of loans is referred to as impairment and recorded as provision expense on a discounted basis during the period (see "Allowance for loan and lease losses" below). Improvement in expected cash flows for a pool of loans, once any previously recorded impairment is recaptured, is recognized prospectively as an adjustment to the yield on the loans in the pool. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. For acquired loans that prepay, noninterest income may be recorded related to the accelerated recognition of the remaining purchase discount that would have been recognized over the life of the loan had it not prepaid, offset by a related adjustment to the FDIC indemnification asset if the loan is still covered under FDIC loss sharing protection. This scenario can occur either through a loan sale or ordinary prepayments that are typical in a loan portfolio. Acquired loans outside the scope of FASB ASC Topic 310-30 are accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 310-20, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Costs. Discounts created when the loans were recorded at their estimated fair values at acquisition are amortized over the remaining term of the loan as an adjustment to the related loan's yield. The accrual of interest income is discontinued when the collection of a loan or interest, in whole or in part, is doubtful. |
Loans and Leases Receivable, Allowance for Loan Losses Policy | For purchased impaired loans, expected cash flows are re-estimated periodically with declines in gross expected cash flows at the pool level recorded as provision expense during the period. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The related, estimated reimbursement for loan losses due from the FDIC under loss sharing agreements, if applicable, is recorded as both FDIC loss sharing income and an increase to the FDIC indemnification asset. |
Other Real Estate Owned Policy | Certain OREO properties are subject to loss sharing agreements whereby the FDIC will reimburse First Financial for 80% of losses up to the stated loss thresholds, and 95% of losses in excess of the thresholds. When management disposes of an OREO property subject to loss sharing agreements, any gains or losses realized at the time of disposal are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income and are substantially offset by a related adjustment to the FDIC indemnification asset. |
Fair Value Hedges | |
Derivatives, Methods of Accounting, Hedging Derivatives | Fair value hedges. First Financial utilizes interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to offer commercial borrowers fixed rate funding while providing the Company with floating rate assets. |
Cash Flow Hedges | |
Derivatives, Methods of Accounting, Hedging Derivatives | Cash flow hedges - The net interest receivable or payable on an interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to interest income or interest expense, while the fair value is included within Accrued interest and other assets or Accrued interest and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from derivatives not considered effective in hedging the cash flows related to the hedged items, if any, are recognized in income immediately. |
