Exhibit 99.1 (REGIONS FINANCIAL CORP.(SM) LOGO) July 14, 2006 REGIONS REPORTS RECORD SECOND QUARTER PROFITS, EXCELLENT MOMENTUM, GOOD MERGER PREPARATION PROGRESS BIRMINGHAM, ALA.--Regions Financial Corporation (NYSE:RF) today announced highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, including: - Record earnings of 75 cents per diluted share - Higher net interest income - Strong fee-based revenues - Improved operating efficiency - Outstanding credit quality - Good merger preparation progress REAPING REWARDS OF MERGER OPPORTUNITIES, BALANCE SHEET POSITIONING "Regions' significant second quarter earnings gain sets the stage for record full-year 2006 operating profits," said Regions Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Jackson W. Moore. "We continue to see the powerful benefits of Regions' mid-2004 merger of equals with Union Planters as incremental revenue generating opportunities are realized and operating efficiency is improved. "Strong revenue, combined with lower expenses, drove Regions' sharp bottom line increase first-to-second quarter," according to Moore. "A well-positioned balance sheet enabled continued net interest income growth, and fee-based revenues were solid. Additionally, net loan charge-offs remained low. As a result, Regions' annualized return on tangible common equity increased to approximately 26 percent. "This was a milestone quarter due to our record-breaking profits as well as our May 25 announcement of an agreement to merge with Birmingham-based AmSouth," Moore stated. "The merger planning process is well underway, with a fourth quarter close anticipated. "I'm excited about the Regions-AmSouth merger and its substantial opportunities to accelerate our vision of Regions becoming the leading regional financial services provider by creating significant shareholder value, enhancing products and services for our customers and enhancing career opportunities for our associates. Regions' year-to-date 2006 results validate the power of a complementary, well-executed merger of equals. I am confident in our ability to successfully integrate the two companies and realize the combined entity's enhanced long-term profit potential." EPS CLIMBS TO NEW QUARTERLY HIGH Second quarter 2006 net income was $345 million, or 75 cents per diluted share compared to first quarter 2006's 64 cents per diluted share and year-ago second quarter's 53 cents per diluted share, including 6 Continued Next Page July 14, 2006 Page 2 cents of merger-related charges. Thus, per share quarterly earnings rose 17 percent linked quarter and 27 percent year-over-year, excluding merger charges. For the first six months of 2006, net income totaled $640 million, or $1.39 per diluted share compared to $1.04 per diluted share, including 12 cents of merger and other charges, reported in the first six months of 2005. The 20 percent annual increase, excluding merger and other charges, reflected solid revenue growth and merger-related cost save benefits. BANKING OPERATIONS CONTINUE TO GROW NET INTEREST INCOME "Regions' banking business posted good revenue growth first-to-second quarter--both spread-related and fee-based," Moore noted. "Regions' ongoing disciplined balance sheet management positively impacted spread-related net interest income." Taxable equivalent net interest income rose $25 million, or an annualized 13 percent linked quarter, reflecting a higher net interest margin (4.24 percent) and an additional business day in the second quarter. The year-over-year quarterly increase was 10 percent, driven by 39 basis point margin expansion and modest balance sheet growth. Total loans grew 5 percent, linked-quarter, annualized. Increases in commercial and industrial credits drove overall community bank loan growth, offset somewhat by a decline in commercial real estate and consumer lines of credit. Total deposits grew 6 percent linked-quarter, annualized. Customer preferences continued to move toward higher-yielding instruments such as retail certificates of deposit, shifting funds out of interest free and low-cost deposit accounts. Regions continues to actively control deposit pricing while strengthening its core funding base. FEE-BASED REVENUES REMAIN STRONG "We're pleased with Regions' broad and expanding base of fee revenues," stated Moore. "Total fees have risen 8 percent since second quarter 2005, excluding securities transactions." Linked-quarter fee-based revenue comparisons were steady-to-favorable, leading to an aggregate 4 percent increase even with first quarter's unusually strong contribution from capital markets-related businesses. Service charges on deposit accounts jumped 15 percent from first quarter's seasonal low and were up 12 percent year-over-year second quarter. Mortgage-related servicing and origination fees improved 5 percent compared to first quarter, helped by EquiFirst's higher origination volume. Gain on sale of mortgage loans improved significantly given higher sales volumes and slightly better gain on sale margins at EquiFirst. MORGAN KEEGAN REMAINS WELL POSITIONED FOR RECORD FULL-YEAR EARNINGS "Morgan Keegan's second quarter results were excellent," Moore said. "Profits were $33 million, or 34 percent higher than a year ago, and support our expectations that full-year 2006 will be another record earnings year for Morgan Keegan. Second quarter earnings, though, did drop from first quarter 2006's particularly strong $41 million, which included a $9 million after tax gain on the swap of NYSE seats for stock." Revenue aggregated $239 million, up 22 percent from a year earlier but down from first quarter 2006's $252 million. First quarter revenues included a $13 million pre-tax gain related to the exchange of NYSE seats for stock. All divisions reported good business flows, helped by Morgan Keegan's increased distribution system and larger sales force. Continued Next Page July 14, 2006 Page 3 OPERATING EFFICIENCY IMPROVES Non-interest expenses dropped 4 percent linked-quarter, to $727 million from first quarter's $756 million. Favorable expense trends reflect cost savings from the Union Planters merger, continuing efforts to streamline operations, and seasonally lower second quarter expenses. Also included in first quarter and second quarter non-interest expense were recoveries of $9 million and $10 million, respectively, from valuation of mortgage servicing rights. Regions' operating efficiency ratio improved to 57 percent from first quarter's 61 percent, driven by strong gains in total revenue combined with favorable expense trends. NON-PERFORMING ASSETS FALL, LOAN CHARGE-OFFS STAY LOW Credit quality was excellent in the second quarter. Non-performing assets declined 22 percent linked quarter, or $89 million, to $320 million at June 30, 2006--0.54 percent of loans and foreclosed real estate. This compares to $456 million (0.78 percent of loans and foreclosed real estate) at June 30, 2005. Loans greater than 90 days past due also improved, dropping $15 million, or 16 percent, first-to-second quarter. During the second quarter, Regions sold $10 million of foreclosed real estate, realizing a net $5 million gain. Additionally, $59 million of non-performing residential mortgage loans were sold, with no income statement impact. Net loan charge-offs remained low at $31 million, or an annualized 0.21 percent of average loans. Aggregate net charge-offs rose slightly from first quarter's seasonally low $29 million (annualized 0.20 percent of average loans), and declined from second quarter 2005's $34 million (annualized 0.23 percent of average loans). Second quarter's provision for loan losses was $30 million, resulting in a $778 million loan loss allowance (1.32 percent of loans) at June 30, 2006. ADHERES TO ACTIVE CAPITAL MANAGEMENT STRATEGY During the second quarter, Regions repurchased 3.6 million common shares at an average cost of $35.08 per share. Year-to-date June 30, buybacks totaled 7.3 million shares, leaving up to an additional 20.3 million common shares that can be repurchased under the company's current authorization. Regions remained well capitalized. Tangible stockholders' equity-to-tangible assets was 6.69 percent at June 30, 2006--down slightly from March 31's 6.77 percent. STRIKES AGREEMENT TO MERGE WITH AMSOUTH On May 25, 2006, Regions and AmSouth announced an agreement to merge, creating a top ten U. S. banking organization with approximately $140 billion in assets and a $24 billion market capitalization. AmSouth shareholders will receive 0.7974 Regions shares for each AmSouth share. The newly formed entity will retain the name Regions Financial Corporation. Pending shareholder and regulatory approvals, the transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2006.

=========== =========== =========== =========== =========== ======== === ======== ==== * Linked quarter percentage changes are presented on an annualized basis. - - Loan trends continued to reflect Regions' focus on strong underwriting principles and discipline in pricing. - - Linked-quarter commercial loan growth is a result of overall improvement in C&I portfolio trends. - - The linked-quarter period end decline in residential mortgages is partially a result of the sale of $59 MM of non-performing residential mortgage loans. - - Construction loan growth was strongest in the Southeast region, particularly, the Mid-Atlantic and Georgia. - - Average community banking loans increased 1.3%, linked-quarter, annualized, primarily due to an increase in commercial loans, offset partially

FINANCIAL SUPPLEMENT TO SECOND QUARTER 2006 EARNINGS RELEASE PAGE 18 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS The information contained in this press release may include forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") provides a "safe-harbor" for forward-looking statements which are identified as such and are accompanied by the identification of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. For these statements, we, together with our subsidiaries, unless the context implies otherwise, claim the protection afforded by the safe harbor in the Act. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical information, but rather are related to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward-looking statements are based on managements' expectations as well as certain assumptions and estimates made by, and information available to, management at the time the statements are made. These statements are based on general assumptions and are subject to various risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the views, beliefs, and projections expressed in such statements. Some risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to those described below: o Regions' ability to achieve the earnings expectations related to the businesses that were acquired, including its merger with Union Planters Corporation ("Union Planters") in July 2004, or that may be acquired in the future, including its announced plan to merge with AmSouth Bancorporation ("AmSouth"), which in turn depends on a variety of factors, including: o Regions' ability to achieve anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancements with respect to acquired operations, or lower our ability to achieve anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancements with respect to acquired operations, or lower than expected revenues from continuing operations; o the assimilation of acquired operations to Regions' corporate culture, including the ability to instill our credit practices and efficient approach to acquired operations; o the continued growth of the markets that the acquired entities serve, consistent with recent historical experience; o difficulties related to the integration of the businesses, including integration of information systems and retention of key personnel. o Regions' ability to expand into new markets and to maintain profit margins in the face of pricing pressures. o Regions' ability to keep pace with technological changes. o Regions' ability to develop competitive new products and services in a timely manner and the acceptance of such products and services by Regions' customers and potential Regions customers. o Regions' ability to effectively manage interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk and operational risk. o Regions' ability to manage fluctuations in the value of assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet exposure so as to maintain sufficient capital and liquidity to support Regions' business. o The cost and other effects of material contingencies, including litigation contingencies. o Further easing of restrictions on participants in the financial services industry, such as banks, securities brokers and dealers, investment companies, and finance companies, may increase our competitive pressures. o Possible changes in interest rates may increase funding costs and reduce earning asset yields, thus reducing margins. o Possible changes in general economic and business conditions in the United States and the South, in general, and in the communities we serve, in particular, may lead to a deterioration in credit quality, thereby increasing our provisioning costs, or a reduced demand for credit, thereby reducing our earning assets. o The occurrence of natural disasters or the threat or occurrence of war or acts of terrorism and the existence or exacerbation of general geopolitical instability and uncertainty. o Possible changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies, laws, and regulations, and other activities of governments, agencies, and similar organizations, including changes in accounting standards, may have an adverse effect on business. o Possible changes in consumer and business spending and saving habits could affect Regions' ability to increase assets and to attract deposits. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "project," and similar expressions signify forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, which speak only as of the date made. Regions assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements that are made from time to time.
