Note 1 - Financial Information

The unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements of First Horizon National Corporation (FHN), including its subsidiaries, have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and follow general practices within the industries in which it operates. This preparation requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements and could differ from actual results. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments have been made for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The operating results for the interim 2005 periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected going forward. For further information, refer to the audited con
solidated financial statements in the 2004 Annual Report to shareholders.

Stock options. FHN accounts for its employee stock-based compensation plans under the intrinsic value based method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The following pro forma presentation of net income and earnings per share is determined utilizing various assumptions and estimates and is based on stock option plan provisions in effect during the reportable period and may not reflect the actual impact of adopting a fair value based method of accounting for stock options. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined consistent with SFAS No. 123, FHN's net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts provided in the table below.

Other disclosures - Indemnification agreements and guarantees. In the ordinary course of business, FHN enters into indemnification agreements for legal proceedings against its directors and officers and standard representation warranties for underwriting agreements, merger and acquisition agreements, sold loans and other similar types of arrangements. It is not possible to estimate a maximum potential amount of payouts that could be required with such agreements. FHN purchases directors and officers liability insurance to provide reimbursement of corporate indemnification and to protect directors and officers for certain non-indemnified losses.

First Horizon Home Loan Corporation (First Horizon Home Loans) services a mortgage loan portfolio of $88.0 billion as of March 31, 2005, a significant portion of which is held by Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSE) or private security holders. In connection with its servicing activities, First Horizon Home Loans guarantees the receipt of the scheduled principal and interest payments on the underlying loans. In the event of customer non-performance on the loan, First Horizon Home Loans is obligated to make the payment to the security holder. Under the terms of the servicing agreements, First Horizon Home Loans can utilize payments received from other prepaid loans in order to make the security holder whole. In the event payments are ultimately made by First Horizon Home Loans to satisfy this obligation, for loans sold with no recourse, all funds are recoverable from the GSE at foreclosure sale.

First Horizon Home Loans is also subject to losses in its loan servicing portfolio due to loan foreclosures and other recourse obligations. Certain agencies have the authority to limit their repayment guarantees on foreclosed loans resulting in certain foreclosure costs being borne

Note 1 - Financial Information (continued)

by servicers. In addition, First Horizon Home Loans has exposure on all loans sold with recourse. First Horizon Home Loans has various claims for reimbursement, repurchase obligations, and/or indemnification requests outstanding with government agencies or private investors. First Horizon Home Loans has sold certain mortgage loans with an agreement to repurchase the loans upon default. As of March 31, 2005 and 2004, First Horizon Home Loans had single-family residential loans with outstanding balances of $190.5 million and $255.2 million, respectively, which were sold on a recourse basis. For the single-family residential loans, in the event of borrower nonperformance, First Horizon Home Loans would assume losses to the extent they exceed the value of the collateral and private mortgage insurance, FHA insurance or VA guarantees. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, $3.4 billion and $3.7 billion, respectively, of mortgage loans were outstanding which were sold under limited recou
rse arrangements where some portion of the principal is at risk. First Horizon Home Loans has evaluated all of its exposure under recourse obligations based on factors, which include loan delinquency status, foreclosure expectancy rates and claims outstanding. Accordingly, First Horizon Home Loans had a foreclosure reserve on the mortgage-servicing portfolio of approximately $16.5 million and $20.2 million as of March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. While the servicing portfolio has grown from $70.3 billion on March 31, 2004 to $88.0 billion on March 31, 2005, the foreclosure reserve has decreased primarily due to a reduction in the recourse portfolio.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by FHN to guarantee the performance and/or payment of a customer to a third party in connection with specified transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing these commitments is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers, as performance under any of the facilities would result in a loan being funded to the customer. Standby letters of credit outstanding as of March 31, 2005 and 2004, were $584.4 million and $509.4 million, respectively.

Accounting changes. Effective January 1, 2005, FHN adopted SOP 03-3, "Accounting for Loans or Certain Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer", which modifies the accounting for certain loans that are acquired with evidence of deterioration in credit quality since origination. SOP 03-3 does not apply to loans recorded at fair value or to mortgage loans classified as held for sale. SOP 03-3 limits the yield that may be accreted on applicable loans to the excess of the cash flows expected, at acquisition, to be collected over the investor's initial investment in the loan. SOP 03-3 also prohibits the "carrying over" of valuation allowances on applicable loans. SOP 03-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The ongoing impact of adopting SOP 03-3 is expected to be immaterial to the results of operations.

In September 2004, the FASB approved issuance of Staff Position ("FSP") EITF 03-1-1, "Effective Date of Paragraphs 10 through 20 of EITF Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments" ("EITF 03-1"). FSP EITF 03-1-1 delays the effective date of paragraphs 10 through 20 of EITF 03-1 as they relate to recognition of other-than-temporary impairment for cost method and marketable investments. This deferral will extend until a Staff Position is issued to provide clarification of the guidance presented in paragraphs 10 through 20. Effective July 1, 2004, FHN adopted all other provisions of EITF 03-1, including measurement guidance for evaluating whether an impairment has occurred for marketable securities and cost method investments. Adoption of these requirements did not have a material effect on the results of operations. The effect of implementing the final provisions of paragraphs 10
through 20 cannot currently be estimated due to the pending implementation issues.

On July 1, 2004, FHN adopted FSP FAS 106-2, "Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003". FSP FAS 106-2 requires a plan sponsor to determine if benefits offered through a postretirement health care plan are actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. If benefits are determined to be actuarially equivalent, the resulting effect on the plan's obligations should be reflected as an actuarial gain in determining the plan's accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. The impact of adopting FSP FAS 106-2 was immaterial to FHN.

In April 2004, FHN adopted SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105 (SAB No. 105), "Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments". SAB No. 105 prohibits the inclusion of estimated servicing cash flows and internally-developed intangible assets within the valuation of interest rate lock commitments under SFAS No. 133. SAB No. 105 also requires disclosure of a registrant's methods of accounting for interest rate lock commitments recognized under SFAS No. 133 and associated hedging strategies, if applicable. SAB No. 105 is effective for disclosures and interest rate lock commitments initiated after March 31, 2004. The adoption of SAB No. 105 resulted in an accounting change in second quarter 2004 and lowered earnings by $8.4 million. Since prior periods are not restated, this accounting change results in a varying impact on comparability with prior periods. However, the ongoing economic value of FHN's business is not affected.

Note 1 - Financial Information (continued)

On March 31, 2004, FHN adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46-R), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (revised December 2003)". FIN 46-R clarifies certain aspects of FIN 46 and provides certain entities with exemptions from the requirements of FIN 46. Additionally, FIN 46-R incorporates the guidance found in eight final FASB Staff Positions (FSP) that had been issued prior to its release. FIN 46-R requires the consolidation by a business enterprise of variable interest entities (VIE) in which it is the primary beneficiary. FIN 46-R also required the adoption of FIN 46, as of December 31, 2003, for all entities previously considered as special purpose entities and for all VIE created after January 31, 2003. Upon adoption of FIN 46-R, FHN reassessed certain of its nonconsolidated interests as VIE but did not meet the criteria of primary beneficiary and, therefore, has not consolidated any of its VIE, includi
ng First Tennessee Capital I (Capital I) and First Tennessee Capital II (Capital II).

Accounting changes issued but not currently effective. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS No. 123-R), which requires recognition of expense over the requisite service period for awards of share-based compensation to employees. Due to SEC action in April 2005, the mandatory adoption date for SFAS No. 123-R was moved to January 1, 2006 with earlier adoption permitted. As permitted by the original SFAS No. 123, FHN has accounted for its equity awards under the provisions of APB No. 25. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, the grant date fair value of an award will be used to measure the compensation expense recognized for the award. For unvested awards granted prior to the adoption of SFAS 123-R, the fair values utilized will equal the values used in preparation of the disclosures required under the original SFAS 123. Compensation expense recognized after adoption of SFAS 123-R will incorporate an
estimate of awards expected to ultimately vest, which requires estimation of forfeitures as well as projections related to the satisfaction of performance conditions that determine vesting. Upon initial adoption of SFAS 123-R, FHN is required to reclassify deferred compensation debit balances to capital surplus and to make a cumulative effect entry for outstanding unvested awards that are not expected to vest due to anticipated forfeiture. As permitted by SFAS 123-R , FHN intends to restate its prior period financial statements.

FASB Interpretation No. 47, "Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations" (FIN 47) was issued in March 2005. FIN 47 requires recognition of a liability at the time of acquisition or construction for assets that will require certain remediation expenditures when the assets are removed from service. FIN 47 clarifies that future expenses to remove asbestos from buildings should be estimated and accrued as a liability at the time of acquisition with an offset to increase the cost of the associated structure. FHN currently owns certain buildings that contain asbestos. As a result of adopting FIN 47, FHN will increase the value of its recorded tangible assets at the time it recognizes the associated conditional retirement obligation. The retirement liability is accreted through interest expense to the estimated payouts that would be made in the future if settlement of the liability were to occur. Previously, FHN did not accrue any retirement liability fo
r the expected retirement costs on these buildings due to the uncertainty associated with the timing and amount of payment. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal 2005. FHN is currently assessing the financial impact of adopting FIN 47.

Note 2 - Acquisitions/Divestitures

On March 1, 2005, First Horizon Home Loan Corporation, a subsidiary of First Tennessee Bank National Association (FTBNA), acquired Greenwich Home Mortgage Corporation of Cedar Knolls, New Jersey for an initial payment of approximately $7.8 million in cash and FHN common stock. Net assets purchased, combined with the operating performance of the acquired business, will impact future payments owed to the sellers. The acquisition was immaterial to FHN.

On January 7, 2005, FHN's capital markets division, FTN Financial, completed the acquisition of the assets and operations of the fixed income business of Spear, Leeds & Kellogg (SLK), a division of Goldman Sachs & Co. for approximately $150.0 million in cash. The acquisition is expected to be accretive to FHN's earnings per share during 2005.

On December 31, 2004, Synaxis Group, Inc., a subsidiary of FTBNA, completed the sale of substantially all the assets of Mann, Smith & Cummings, Inc. of Clarksville, TN. This transaction resulted in a divestiture gain of $1.2 million.

On September 23, 2004, FTN Midwest Securities Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of FTBNA, acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Alterity Partners, LLC, a mergers and acquisitions advisory services company based in New York, New York, for approximately $8.0 million in cash. The acquisition was immaterial to FHN.

* On March 31, 2005 and 2004, and on December 31, 2004, other nonaccrual loans included $9.3 million, $9.0 million, and $8.5 million, respectively, of loans held for sale.

Nonperforming loans consist of impaired loans and other nonaccrual loans. An impaired loan is a loan that management believes the contractual amount due probably will not be collected. Impaired loans are generally carried on a nonaccrual status. Nonaccrual loans are loans on which interest accruals have been discontinued due to the borrower's financial difficulties. Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when the estimated net realizable value of collateral is sufficient to recover the principal balance and accrued interest.

Generally, interest payments received on impaired loans are applied to principal. Once all principal has been received, additional payments are recognized as interest income on a cash basis. The following table presents information concerning impaired loans:

(Dollars in thousands)			2005	2004
Total interest on impaired loans			$ 284	$ 93
Average balance of impaired loans			36,072	31,829

An allowance for loan losses is maintained for all impaired loans. Activity in the allowance for loan losses related to non-impaired loans, impaired loans, and for the total allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, is summarized as follows:

(Dollars in thousands)	Non-impaired		Impaired	Total

Balance on March 31, 2005	$ 154,006		$ 10,189	$ 164,195

Estimated MSR amortization expense for the twelve-month periods ending March 31, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 is $168.1 million, $146.6 million, $125.9 million, $107.2 million and $89.8 million, respectively. The assumptions underlying these estimates are subject to modification based on changes in market conditions and portfolio behavior (such as prepayment speeds). As a result, these estimates are subject to change in a manner and amount that is not presently determinable by management.

For purposes of impairment evaluation and measurement, the MSR are stratified based on the predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans. These strata currently include adjustable and fixed rate loans. The MSR are amortized over the period of and in proportion to the estimated net servicing revenues. A quarterly impairment analysis is performed using a discounted cash flow methodology that is disaggregated by predominant risk characteristics. Impairment, if any, is recognized through a valuation allowance for individual strata. However, if the impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary, a direct write-off of the asset is made.

Note 5 - Intangible Assets

Following is a summary of intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, included in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition:

The MSR on March 31, 2005 and 2004, had estimated market values of approximately $1,149.3 million and $738.2 million, respectively. These balances represent the rights to service approximately $85.1 billion and $66.0 billion of mortgage loans on March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, for which a servicing right has been capitalized. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, valuation allowances due to temporary impairment of $3.0 million and $32.3 million were required, respectively. Following is a rollforward of the valuation allowance as of March 31, 2005 and 2004:

Balance on December 31, 2003					$ 36,468
Permanent impairment					(18,783)

Note 6 - Regulatory Capital

FHN is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on FHN's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain derivatives as calculated under regulatory accounting practices must be met. Capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgment by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require FHN to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets (leverage). Mana
gement believes, as of March 31, 2005, that FHN met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject.

The actual capital amounts and ratios of FHN and FTBNA are presented in the table below. In addition, FTBNA must also calculate its capital ratios after excluding financial subsidiaries as defined by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999. Based on this calculation FTBNA's Total Capital, Tier 1 Capital and Leverage ratios were 12.24 percent, 8.62 percent and 6.86 percent, respectively, on March 31, 2005, and were 11.65 percent, 8.69 percent and 7.24 percent, respectively, on March 31, 2004.

Note 8 – Pension and Other Employee Benefits

Pension plan. FHN provides pension benefits to employees retiring under the provisions of a noncontributory, defined benefit pension plan. Pension benefits are based on years of service, average compensation near retirement and estimated social security benefits at age 65. The annual funding is based on an actuarially determined amount using the entry age cost method. FHN also maintains a nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan. All benefits provided under this plan are unfunded and payments to plan participants are made by FHN.

Other employee benefits. FHN provides postretirement medical insurance to full-time employees retiring under the provisions of the FHN Pension Plan. The postretirement medical plan is contributory with retiree contributions adjusted annually. The plan is based on criteria that are a combination of the employee's age and years of service and utilizes a two-step approach. For any employee retiring on or after January 1, 1995, FHN will contribute a fixed amount based on years of service and age at time of retirement. FHN's postretirement benefits include prescription drug benefits. The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act) introduces a prescription drug benefit under Medicare Part D as well as a federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. In May 2004, the FASB approved issuance of FSP FAS 106-2, "Accounting and
Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003". FSP FAS 106-2 requires a plan sponsor to determine if benefits offered through a postretirement health care plan are actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. If benefits are determined to be actuarially equivalent, the resulting effect on the plan's obligations should be reflected as an actuarial gain in determining the plan's accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. FHN adopted the provisions of FSP FAS 106-2 effective July 1, 2004. The impact of adopting FSP FAS 106-2 was immaterial to FHN.

The components of net periodic benefit cost for the three months ended March 31 are as follows:

FHN plans to contribute approximately $37 million to the pension plan in second quarter 2005, and does not anticipate making any further contributions to this plan during the remainder of 2005. FHN does not anticipate making a contribution to the other employee benefit plan in 2005.

Note 9 - Business Segment Information

Effective second quarter 2004, FHN adapted its segments to reflect the common activities and operations of aggregated business segments across the various delivery channels. Prior periods have been restated for comparability. The new segments are Retail/Commercial Banking, Mortgage Banking, Capital Markets and Corporate. The Retail/Commercial Banking segment offers financial products and services, including traditional lending and deposit taking, to retail and commercial customers. Additionally, Retail/Commercial Banking provides investments, insurance, financial planning, trust services and asset management, credit card, cash management, merchant services, check clearing, and correspondent services. Retail/Commercial Banking now includes Equity Lending and second-lien mortgage and construction loans originated by First Horizon Home Loans which were previously in the mortgage segment and correspondent banking which was previously in Capital Markets. The Mortgage Banking
segment consists of core mortgage banking elements including originations and servicing and the associated ancillary revenues related to these businesses. The Capital Markets segment consists of traditional capital markets trading activities, equity research and investment banking. The Corporate segment consists of unallocated corporate expenses, expense on certain subordinated debt issuances and certain preferred stock, bank-owned life insurance, unallocated interest income associated with excess capital, funds management and venture capital.

Total revenue, expense and asset levels reflect those which are specifically identifiable or which are allocated based on an internal allocation method. Because the allocations are based on internally developed assignments and allocations, they are to an extent subjective. This assignment and allocation has been consistently applied for all periods presented. The following table reflects the amounts of consolidated revenue, expense, tax, and assets for each segment for the three months ending March 31:

Note 10 - Preferred Stock of Subsidiary

On September 14, 2000, FT Real Estate Securities Company, Inc. (FTRESC), an indirect subsidiary of FHN, issued 50 shares of 9.50% Cumulative Preferred Stock, Class B (Class B Preferred Shares), with a liquidation preference of $1.0 million per share. An aggregate total of 47 Class B Preferred Shares have been sold privately to nonaffiliates. These securities qualify as Tier 2 capital and are presented in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition as "Term borrowings". FTRESC is a real estate investment trust (REIT) established for the purpose of acquiring, holding and managing real estate mortgage assets. Dividends on the Class B Preferred Shares are cumulative and are payable semi-annually.

The Class B Preferred Shares are mandatorily redeemable on March 31, 2031, and redeemable at the discretion of FTRESC in the event that the Class B Preferred Shares cannot be accounted for as Tier 2 regulatory capital or there is more than an insubstantial risk that dividends paid with respect to the Class B Preferred Shares will not be fully deductible for tax purposes. They are not subject to any sinking fund and are not convertible into any other securities of FTRESC, FHN or any of its subsidiaries. The shares are, however, automatically exchanged at the direction of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for preferred stock of FTBNA, having substantially the same terms as the Class B Preferred Shares in the event FTBNA becomes undercapitalized, insolvent or in danger of becoming undercapitalized.

The following indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of FHN have also issued preferred stock. First Horizon Mortgage Loan Corporation has issued $1.0 million of Class B Preferred Shares. Additionally, FHRIII, LLC and FHRIV, LLC have each issued $1.0 million of Class B Preferred Units. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, $.5 million and $.4 million, respectively, of Class B Preferred Shares and Units that are perpetual in nature and not subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 150 were recognized as "Preferred stock of subsidiary" on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition. The remaining balance has been eliminated in consolidation.

On March 23, 2005, FTBNA issued 300,000 shares of Class A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (Class A Preferred Stock) with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. These securities qualify as Tier 1 capital. On March 31, 2005, $295.4 million of Class A Preferred Stock was recognized as "Preferred stock of subsidiary" on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition.

Note 11 - Contingencies

Contingent liabilities arise in the ordinary course of business, including those related to litigation. Various claims and lawsuits are pending against FHN and its subsidiaries. Although FHN cannot predict the outcome of these lawsuits, after consulting with counsel, management has been able to form an opinion on the effect all of these lawsuits, except the matter mentioned in the paragraph below, will have on the consolidated financial statements. It is management's opinion that when resolved, these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of FHN.

In November 2000, a complaint was filed in Missouri state court against FHN's subsidiary, First Horizon Home Loans. The case concerns the charging of certain loan origination fees, permitted by Kansas law but allegedly restricted or not permitted by Missouri law, when First Horizon Home Loans or its predecessor, McGuire Mortgage Company, made certain second-lien mortgage loans in Kansas which were secured by Missouri property. Among other relief, plaintiffs seek fees, loan interest, punitive damages, statutory penalties, and loan rescission. In response to pre-trial motions, the court has ruled that Missouri law governs the loan transactions and has certified a statewide class action; plaintiffs contend the class involves approximately 4,600 loans, but the exact size is in dispute. Discovery is ongoing and additional pre-trial motions are pending. Trial is currently scheduled for November 2005. FHN believes that it has meritorious defenses and intends to continue to pro
tect its rights and defend this lawsuit vigorously, through trial and appeal, if necessary.

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

GENERAL INFORMATION

FHN is a national financial services institution. From a small community bank chartered in 1864, FHN has grown to be one of the top 35 largest bank holding companies in the United States in terms of asset size and market capitalization.

Mortgage Banking helps provide home ownership through First Horizon Home Loans, which operates offices in more than 40 states and is one of the top 15 mortgage servicers and top 20 originators of mortgage loans to consumers. This segment consists of core mortgage banking elements including originations and servicing and the associated ancillary revenues related to these businesses.
Capital Markets provides a broad spectrum of financial services for the investment and banking communities through the integration of capital markets securities activities, equity research and investment banking.
Corporate consists of unallocated corporate expenses, expense on subordinated debt issuances and preferred stock, bank-owned life insurance, unallocated interest income associated with excess capital, net impact of raising incremental capital, funds management and venture capital.

For the purpose of this management discussion and analysis (MD&A), earning assets have been expressed as averages, and loans have been disclosed net of unearned income. The following is a discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of FHN for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2004. To assist the reader in obtaining a better understanding of FHN and its performance, this discussion should be read in conjunction with FHN's unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying notes appearing in this report. Additional information including the 2004 financial statements, notes, and management's discussion and analysis is provided in the 2004 Annual Report.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Management's discussion and analysis may contain forward-looking statements with respect to FHN's beliefs, plans, goals, expectations, and estimates. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not a representation of historical information but rather are related to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. The words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate", "should", "is likely", "will", "going forward", and other expressions that indicate future events and trends identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, operational, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond a company's control, and many of which, with respect to future business decisions and actions (including a
cquisitions and divestitures), are subject to change. Examples of uncertainties and contingencies include, among other important factors, general and local economic and business conditions; expectations of and actual timing and amount of interest rate movements (which can have a significant impact on a financial services institution); market and monetary fluctuations; inflation or deflation; investor responses to these conditions; the financial condition of borrowers and other

counterparties; competition within and outside the financial services industry; geopolitical developments including possible terrorist activity; effectiveness of FHN's hedging practices; technology; demand for FHN's product offerings; new products and services in the industries in which FHN operates; and critical accounting estimates. Other factors are those inherent in originating and servicing loans including prepayment risks, pricing concessions, fluctuation in U.S. housing prices, fluctuation of collateral values, and changes in customer profiles. Additionally, the actions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and other regulators; regulatory and judicial proceedings and changes in laws and regulations applicable to FHN; and FHN's success in executing its business plans and strategies and managing the
risks involved in the foregoing, could cause actual results to differ. FHN assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements that are made from time to time. Actual results could differ because of several factors, including those presented in the Forward-Looking Statements section of the MD&A discussion.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY (Comparison of First Quarter 2005 to First Quarter 2004)

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Earnings for first quarter 2005 were $109.2 million, or $.85 diluted earnings per share compared to earnings of $119.3 million, or $.92 diluted earnings per share for first quarter 2004.

Earnings this quarter were led by the performance of Retail/Commercial Banking, as pre-tax income increased 36 percent to $118.7 million, reflecting the execution of national expansion initiatives which continue to leverage cross-sell opportunities in markets where FHN has a substantial mortgage presence and growth in the sales force. The success of these initiatives can be seen through loan growth of 19 percent and core deposit growth of 12 percent compared to first quarter 2004. In addition, gains from sales and securitizations of residential real estate loans (second-lien mortgages and home equity lines of credit) increased as FHN continued to utilize new alternative funding sources for robust loan growth. In addition, these transactions also improved FHN's capital position. Asset quality also remained positive with an 8 percent decrease in provision and a net charge off ratio of 17 basis points compared to 34 basis points last year.

Mortgage Banking experienced declines in profitability due to the challenging economic environment. The mortgage loan origination volume increase was driven by 39 percent growth in home purchase related originations primarily resulting from an expanded sales force. While margins on loans delivered into the secondary markets began to improve over fourth quarter 2004 levels, they remained depressed compared to 2004's first quarter levels. In addition, less favorable net hedge results and personnel costs associated with the expansion of the sales force exerted negative pressure on the Mortgage Banking segment's results in first quarter 2005.

Capital Markets saw increased fixed-income revenues from non-depository investors, which comprised 56 percent of total fixed income revenues, due to the acquisition of the fixed income business of Spear, Leeds and Kellogg (SLK). However, uncertainties within the investment community regarding interest rates and other economic factors continued to negatively impact total revenues. Additionally, transition costs related to the integration of SLK and an incremental capital charge associated with funding this acquisition lowered the profitability of Capital Markets in first quarter 2005.

Return on average shareholders' equity and return on average assets were 21.8 percent and 1.30 percent, respectively, for first quarter 2005 compared to 25.6 percent and 1.93 percent for first quarter 2004. Total assets were $35.2 billion and shareholders' equity was $2.1 billion on March 31, 2005, compared to $27.1 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, on March 31, 2004. The increase in total assets was impacted by $3.7 billion growth in Capital Markets' balance sheet primarily related to the SLK acquisition.

BUSINESS LINE REVIEW

Retail/Commercial Banking

Pre-tax income for Retail/Commercial Banking increased 36 percent to $118.7 million for first quarter 2005, compared to $87.7 million for first quarter 2004. Retail/Commercial Banking contributed 73 percent of total pre-tax income in first quarter 2005 compared to 49 percent in first quarter 2004. Total revenues increased 16 percent to $319.3 million for first quarter 2005 compared to $274.1 million for first quarter 2004.

Net interest income increased 25 percent to $197.9 million in first quarter 2005 from $158.1 million in first quarter 2004. The increase in 2005's net interest income is primarily attributable to 19 percent loan growth which consisted of 26 percent or $1.6 billion growth in commercial loans and 14 percent or $1.1 billion growth in retail loans. This growth reflects FHN's national expansion strategies, which leverage cross-sell opportunities in markets where we have a substantial mortgage presence and expansion of the sales force. Loan growth

was partially funded by an increase in core deposits of 11 percent. Retail/Commercial Banking's net interest margin for first quarter 2005 was stable compared to first quarter 2004, and the margin increased 5 basis points compared to fourth quarter 2004.

Noninterest income increased 5 percent in first quarter 2005 to $121.4 million compared to $116.0 million in first quarter 2004. The increase in noninterest income in first quarter 2005 included $10.4 million net gains from whole-loan sales of approximately $440 million of real estate residential loans. Included in first quarter 2004 are $5.0 million net gains from the securitization of approximately $300 million of real estate residential loans. Also impacting growth in noninterest income is a 22 percent increase in merchant processing income reflecting increased volume from existing customers as well as an expanded customer base.

The provision for loan losses decreased to $13.1 million in first quarter 2005 from $14.2 million last year primarily due to improvements in the risk profile of both the retail and commercial loan portfolios. The risk profile of the retail portfolio improved as the mix shifted to a greater concentration of high credit score products. The risk profile of the commercial loan portfolio improved as indicated by current lower levels of watch and classified loans.

Noninterest expense was $187.5 million in first quarter 2005 compared to $172.2 million last year. The growth in noninterest expense was due to higher personnel costs which were largely attributable to national expansion initiatives. As total revenue grew 16 percent and noninterest expense grew 9 percent, the efficiency ratio improved from 63 percent in first quarter 2004 to 59 percent in first quarter 2005. This improvement in the efficiency ratio was accomplished through FHN's ability to leverage current infrastructure while executing national expansion initiatives.

In the quarters ahead, Retail/Commercial Banking should produce year-over-year earnings growth through further expansion of FHN's banking franchise, disruption from bank mergers in key markets, and general economic conditions. Merchant processing fees should continue to experience strong growth due to increased volumes from existing customers as well as an expanded customer base. Gains from the securitization or sale of retail loans are expected in subsequent quarters as FHN continues to utilize these mechanisms to manage liquidity and fund new loan growth.

Mortgage Banking

Pre-tax income for Mortgage Banking decreased 35 percent to $41.2 million for first quarter 2005, compared to $63.5 million for first quarter 2004. Total revenues were $155.5 million in first quarter 2005, a decrease of 5 percent from $163.2 million in first quarter 2004.

Noninterest income decreased 6 percent to $122.6 million in first quarter 2005 compared to $130.8 million in first quarter 2004. Noninterest income consists primarily of mortgage banking-related revenue, net of costs, from the origination and sale of mortgage loans, fees from mortgage servicing and mortgage servicing rights (MSR) net hedge gains or losses. Total noninterest income is net of amortization, impairment and other expenses related to MSR and related hedges.

Mortgage loan origination volumes in first quarter 2005 were $7.6 billion compared to $6.9 billion in 2004 driven by an increase in home purchase related originations, which grew 39 percent from first quarter 2004. This increase demonstrates FHN's success in executing its strategy to grow the purchase market and was the result of an expanded sales force which increased 19 percent to almost 2,000 relationship managers. Refinance activity represented 47 percent of total originations during first quarter 2005 compared to 58 percent last year. Loans delivered into the secondary market increased 20 percent to $7.4 billion. Net revenue from originating and selling mortgage loans (generally driven by origination volumes and loans securitized and sold) increased 4 percent to $100.0 million compared to $95.8 million in first quarter 2004.

The mortgage-servicing portfolio grew 25 percent to $88.0 billion on March 31, 2005, from $70.3 billion on March 31, 2004. The portfolio on March 31, 2005, included approximately $10 billion of loans for which the servicing rights were acquired since March 31, 2004. Total fees associated with mortgage servicing increased 25 percent to $67.9 million reflecting this growth. In addition, the growth in the servicing portfolio and rising interest rates led to a 41 percent increase in capitalized mortgage servicing rights and a 38 percent, or $12.9 million, increase in amortization expense compared to first quarter 2004. In total, the $14.6 million decrease in net servicing revenues consists of these and several other factors, including a decrease of $13.8 million in MSR net hedge gains and a favorable $4.2 million impact from lower MSR impairment charges. In addition, mortgage trading securities valuations had a negative $5.6 million impact on net servicing revenue due to th
e flattening of the yield curve and the negative impact of decreased volatility in the derivative market.

Noninterest expense increased 15 percent in first quarter 2005 to $114.3 million compared to $99.7 million in first quarter 2004. In first quarter 2005, noninterest expense was unfavorably impacted primarily by increased personnel expense associated with growth in the sales force.

Going forward, the continued improvement in productivity and growth of the mortgage sales force should continue to positively impact mortgage origination volume. Origination profitability could be negatively impacted by competitive pricing if there were a significant reduction in market demand. In the servicing business, portfolio growth should continue to drive operating efficiencies and overall profitability. Revenue from refinance loan originations will generally depend on mortgage interest rates. Over time, an increase in rates should reduce origination fees and profit from the sale of loans, but should also reduce impairment losses, while a decrease in rates should increase this net revenue. Flat to rising interest rates typically reduce net secondary marketing trading gains, while falling rates should benefit this net revenue. The shape of the yield curve also has a significant impact on mortgage banking profitability. Further flattening of the yield curve could n
egatively impact the spread on the mortgage warehouse and overall net hedge costs.

Capital Markets

Pre-tax earnings declined from $30.8 million in first quarter 2004 to $9.3 million in first quarter 2005 primarily due to a reduction in fixed income securities sales, net of a related decline in commissions and incentives. Significant uncertainties within the investment community regarding interest rates and other economic factors have caused fixed income investors to delay their purchases. As a result of these impacts, revenues from fixed income sales to depository and non-depository investors fell $19.0 million. First quarter 2005 results include impacts from the acquisition of SLK which created transition costs of approximately $3 million related to the integration of SLK. Due to the SLK acquisition, non-depository revenues exceeded depository revenues and represented 36 percent of noninterest income in first quarter 2005 compared to 27 percent in first quarter 2004. Revenues from other fee sources include fee income from activities such as investment banking,
equity research, portfolio advisory and the sale of various financial products. Revenue from other fee sources decreased 10 percent from $37.3 million first quarter 2004 to $33.4 million in first quarter 2005.

Net interest income decreased $6.1 million due to an incremental capital charge of $4.6 million associated with funding the SLK acquisition, as well as $3.0 million due to transition costs.

Noninterest expense decreased 8 percent or $7.5 million, primarily due to lower personnel expense, reflecting the decline in commissions and incentives. The decline in noninterest expense was partially offset by additional costs associated with increased transaction volume related to the acquisition of SLK.

Going forward, revenues from fixed income security sales may remain subdued due to investor uncertainty concerning the interest rate environment. SLK should have a positive impact on results following first quarter's transition period. Diversification strategies should continue to gain momentum, notably through revenue growth in the equity research and investment banking businesses.

Corporate

The Corporate segment's results showed a pre-tax loss of $6.3 million in first quarter 2005, compared to a pre-tax loss of $2.1 million in first quarter 2004 primarily related to a decrease in net interest income from a shift in balance sheet positioning. In March 2005, First Tennessee Bank National Association (FTBNA) issued 300,000 shares of noncumulative perpetual preferred stock which provided $295.4 million additional capital.

INCOME STATEMENT REVIEW

Total revenues (net interest income and noninterest income) were $570.8 million, an increase of 1 percent from $566.1 million in 2004. Noninterest income provides the majority of FHN's revenue and contributed 60 percent to total revenue in first quarter 2005 compared to 65 percent in first quarter 2004. First quarter 2005 noninterest income declined 7 percent to $343.4 million from $370.1 million in 2004. A more detailed discussion of the major line items follows.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income increased 16 percent to $227.4 million from $196.0 million as earning assets grew 37 percent to $29.4 billion and interest-bearing liabilities grew 45 percent to $25.6 billion in first quarter 2005.

The activity levels and related funding for FHN's mortgage production and servicing and capital markets activities affect the net interest margin. These activities typically produce different margins than traditional banking activities. Mortgage production and servicing activities can affect the overall margin based on a number of factors, including the size of the mortgage warehouse, the time it takes to deliver loans into the secondary market, the amount of custodial balances, and the level of MSR. Capital markets activities tend to compress the margin because of its strategy to reduce market risk by hedging its inventory in the cash markets, which effectively eliminates net interest income on these positions. As a result, FHN's consolidated margin cannot be readily compared to that of other bank holding companies.

The consolidated net interest margin was 3.12 percent for first quarter 2005 compared to 3.68 percent for first quarter 2004. This compression in the margin occurred as the spread decreased to 2.80 percent from 3.45 percent in 2004. The acquisition of SLK in first quarter 2005 increased the negative pressure on the corporate margin from Capital Markets' activities as this segment's balance sheet grew $3.7 billion. In addition, Mortgage Banking negatively impacted the margin this quarter as the spread on the warehouse decreased 102 basis points to 2.89 percent, and the warehouse grew 28 percent from first quarter 2004.

In the near-term, a modest compression of the net interest margin is expected as an increase in short-term rates will negatively impact the spread on the mortgage warehouse. Over the long-term, FHN's strategies to manage the interest rate sensitivity of the balance sheet position are designed to allow the net interest margin to improve in a higher interest rate environment.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Mortgage Banking Noninterest Income

First Horizon Home Loans, an indirect subsidiary of FHN, offers residential mortgage banking products and services to customers, which consist primarily of the origination or purchase of single-family residential mortgage loans. First Horizon Home Loans originates mortgage loans through its retail and wholesale operations and also purchases mortgage loans from third-party mortgage bankers (correspondent brokers) for sale to secondary market investors and subsequently services the majority of those loans.

Origination income includes origination fees, net of costs, gains/(losses) recognized on loans sold including the capitalized net present value of MSR, and the value recognized on loans in process. Origination fees, net of costs, (including incentives and other direct costs) are deferred and included in the basis of the loans in calculating gains and losses upon sale. Gains or losses from the sale of loans are recognized at the time a mortgage loan is sold into the secondary market. A portion of the gain or loss is recognized at the time an interest rate lock commitment is made to the customer. In second quarter 2004 FHN adopted SAB No. 105, which prohibits the inclusion of estimated servicing cash flows within the valuation of interest rate lock commitments under SFAS No. 133. FHN previously included a portion of the value of the associated servicing cash flows when recognizing loan commitments at inception and throughout its life.

Servicing income includes servicing fees, MSR net hedge gains/(losses), which reflect the effects of hedging MSR including servicing rights net value changes, amortization and impairment of MSR, and gains/(losses) related to market value adjustments on retained interests classified as mortgage trading securities, primarily interest-only strips, and associated hedges. First Horizon Home Loans employs hedging strategies intended to counter changes in the value of MSR and other retained interests due to changing interest rate environments (refer to discussion of MSR under Critical Accounting Policies). Other income includes revenue from the GNMA repurchase program and other miscellaneous items.

The mortgage-servicing portfolio grew 25 percent to $88.0 billion on March 31, 2005, from $70.3 billion on March 31, 2004. Total fees associated with mortgage servicing increased 25 percent to $67.9 million reflecting this growth. In addition, the growth in the servicing portfolio and rising interest rates led to a 41 percent increase in capitalized mortgage servicing rights associated with this portfolio and a 38 percent, or $12.9 million, increase in amortization expense compared to first quarter 2004. In total, the $15.0 million decrease in net servicing revenues consists of these and several other factors, including a decrease of $13.8 million in MSR net hedge gains and a favorable $4.2 million impact from lower MSR impairment charges. In addition, mortgage trading securities valuations had a negative $6.0 million impact on net servicing revenue due to the flattening of the yield curve and the negative impact of decreased volatility in the derivative market.

Other mortgage income increased 104 percent to $4.4 million for 2005 compared to $2.2 million in 2004 primarily due to the consolidation of a subsidiary that prior to third quarter 2004 was accounted for under the equity method. This change was the result of an increase in FHN's share of the earnings of the subsidiary that demonstrated FHN's control over the subsidiary. Total revenues of the consolidated subsidiary, net of minority interest, are recognized in earnings rather than the net results of FHN's share of the earnings of the subsidiary. Accordingly, there is a corresponding increase in noninterest expense from the consolidated subsidiary, net of minority interest.

Capital Markets Noninterest Income

Capital markets noninterest income, the major component of revenue in the Capital Markets segment, is primarily generated from the purchase and sale of securities as both principal and agent, and from investment banking, portfolio advisory and equity research services. Inventory positions are limited to the procurement of securities solely for distribution to customers by the sales staff. Inventory is hedged to protect against movements in fair value due to changes in interest rates.

For first quarter 2005, capital markets noninterest income decreased 19 percent to $95.2 million from $117.9 million in 2004. Significant uncertainties within the investment community regarding interest rates and other economic factors have caused fixed income investors to delay their purchases. As a result of these impacts, revenues from fixed income sales to depository and non-depository investors fell $19.0 million. However, due to the SLK acquisition, non-depository revenues increased 7 percent and represented 37 percent of capital markets noninterest income in first quarter 2005 compared to 28 percent in first quarter 2004. This level of non-depository fees exceeded depository fees for the first time ever, reflecting the customer and product expansion achieved through the SLK acquisition. Revenues from other fee

sources include fee income from activities such as investment banking, equity research, portfolio advisory, and the sale of various financial products. These revenues fell $3.7 million from last year's first quarter.

Other Noninterest Income

All other noninterest income categories grew 3 percent, or $4.1 million. The increase in all other noninterest income in first quarter 2005 included $12.5 million net gains from whole-loan sales of approximately $440 million of real estate residential loans. Included in first quarter 2004 are $5.0 million net gains from the securitization of approximately $300 million of real estate residential loans. Also impacting growth in noninterest income is a 22 percent increase in merchant processing income reflecting increased volume from existing customers as well as an expanded customer base.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Total noninterest expense for first quarter 2005 increased 6 percent to $394.8 million from $372.0 million in 2004. Employee compensation, incentives and benefits (personnel expense), the largest component of noninterest expense, increased 2 percent to $243.0 million from $238.2 million in 2004 primarily due to national expansion initiatives. All other noninterest expense increased 14 percent, or $18.0 million, which included growth in occupancy expense, operations services and contract employment. This increase was primarily due to activity from growth initiatives and the acquisition of SLK.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES / ASSET QUALITY

The provision for loan losses is the charge to earnings that management determines to be necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level reflecting management's estimate of probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. An analytical model based on historical loss experience adjusted for current events, trends and economic conditions is used by management to determine the amount of provision to be recognized and to assess the adequacy of the loan loss allowance. The provision for loan losses decreased 8 percent in 2005 to $13.1 million from $14.2 million in 2004. The reduction in first quarter 2005's provision is related to improvements in asset quality as evidenced by lower net charge-offs. Net charge-offs decreased to $7.1 million in first quarter 2005 compared to $11.8 million in first quarter 2004. Net charge-offs were impacted by improvement in both the retail and commercial loan portfolios. The risk profile of the retail portfo
lio improved as the mix shifted to a greater concentration of high credit score products. The risk profile of the commercial loan portfolio improved as indicated by current lower levels of watch list and classified loans.

Nonperforming loans in the loan portfolio were $40.2 million on March 31, 2005, compared to $38.2 million on March 31, 2004. The ratio of nonperforming loans in the loan portfolio to total loans was .23 percent on March 31, 2005, compared to .27 percent on March 31, 2004, reflecting the underlying stability of the loan portfolio. Nonperforming assets of $75.1 million on March 31, 2005, decreased $2.4 million compared to $77.5 million on March 31, 2004. This decrease reflects a decline in foreclosed real estate.

Going forward the level of provision for loan losses should fluctuate primarily with the strength or weakness of the economies of the markets where FHN does business over the long-run and will experience quarterly fluctuations depending on the type and quantity of loan growth and impacts from quarterly asset quality movements. Additionally, asset quality in general should remain relatively stable based on expected economic conditions with normal quarterly fluctuations around recent levels; however, first quarter 2005 levels were relatively strong.

STATEMENT OF CONDITION REVIEW

EARNING ASSETS

During first quarter 2005, earning assets consisted of loans, loans held for sale, investment securities, trading securities and other earning assets. Earning assets grew 37 percent and averaged $29.4 billion in first quarter 2005 compared to $21.4 billion in 2004. The increase in earning assets was primarily due to loan growth of 19 percent, 62 percent growth in loans held for sale, 171 percent growth in trading securities, and 217 percent growth in other earning assets.

LOANS

Average total loans increased 19 percent for first quarter 2005 to $16.7 billion from $14.0 billion in 2004. Average loans represented 57 percent of average earning assets in first quarter 2005 and 65 percent in 2004.

Commercial, financial and industrial loans increased 22 percent, or $988.5 million, since first quarter 2004 reflecting increased demand for loans and the results of the national expansion strategy. Commercial construction loans grew 85 percent since first quarter 2004 or $600.4 million, primarily from growth in loans to single-family residential builders made through First Horizon Home Loans, reflecting the demand for single-family housing and expansion of the sales force and geographic reach. Commercial real estate loans increased 2 percent, or $21.9 million.

Residential real estate loans grew 8 percent or $575.2 million since first quarter 2004, due to growth in HELOC. The growth in HELOC reflects progress in national expansion plans which have benefited from efforts to incorporate cross-sell initiatives into the origination process. The retail real estate construction portfolio increased 101 percent or $554.9 million since first quarter 2004. Retail real estate residential construction loans are made to individuals for the purpose of constructing a home where FHN is committed to make the permanent mortgage. The increase in these loans reflects the favorable housing environment and expansion of the sales force and geographic reach. Other retail loans decreased 21 percent or $43.3 million since first quarter 2004 largely due to a decline in automobile lending. Credit card receivables decreased 8 percent or $21.2 million, primarily due to the transfer of a portfolio of loans to available for sale. Additional loan information
is provided in Table 6 – Average Loans.

FHN has a significant concentration in loans secured by real estate. In 2005 and 2004, 65 percent of total loans are secured by real estate (see Table 6). Three lending products have contributed to this increased level of real estate lending – (1) significant growth in second mortgages identified as HELOC which grew 19 percent; (2) commercial construction lending which grew 85 percent led by growth in loans to single-family builders; and (3) retail real estate construction which grew 101 percent. FHN's commercial real estate lending is well-diversified by product type and industry. On March 31, 2005, FHN did not have any concentrations of 10 percent or more of total commercial, financial and industrial loans in any single industry.

Commercial loan growth should be strong as a result of our national expansion of single-family residential construction lending and greater market demand for commercial and industrial loans. Year-over-year growth in retail loans will be primarily driven by leveraging our national sales platform.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Loans held for sale, consisting primarily of mortgage-related loans including first- and second-lien mortgages and HELOC, increased 62 percent to $5.3 billion in 2005 from $3.3 billion in 2004. This growth is primarily related to higher levels of HELOC held for sale and securitization as FHN continues to fund loan growth and maintain a stable liquidity position through whole-loan sales or securitizations. In addition, mortgage warehouse loans increased due to the higher level of originations in 2005.

TRADING SECURITIES / OTHER EARNING ASSETS

Trading securities increased 171 percent to $2.5 billion in 2005 from $.9 billion in 2004. Other earning assets increased 217 percent to $2.1 billion in 2005 from $.6 billion in 2004. These increases were primarily attributable to the acquisition of SLK.

DEPOSITS / OTHER SOURCES OF FUNDS

Core deposits increased 12 percent to $11.5 billion in first quarter 2005 compared to $10.2 billion in 2004, primarily due to expansion strategies which emphasize a focus on convenient hours, free checking and targeted financial center expansion. Short-term purchased funds averaged $16.3 billion for first quarter 2005, up 64 percent or $6.4 billion from first quarter 2004. In first quarter 2005, short-term purchased funds accounted for 54 percent of FHN's total funding, which is comprised of core deposits, purchased funds and term borrowings, and accounted for 45 percent of total funding in first quarter 2004. Term borrowings include senior and subordinated borrowings and advances with original maturities greater than one year. Term borrowings averaged $2.6 billion in first quarter 2005, an increase of 44 percent from $1.8 billion in first quarter 2004.

CAPITAL

Management's objectives are to maintain a level of capitalization that is sufficient to sustain asset growth, take advantage of profitable growth opportunities and promote depositor and investor confidence.

Shareholders' equity was $2.1 billion on March 31, 2005, up 9 percent from 2004. The increase in shareholders' equity during 2005 came from retention of net income after dividends and the effects of stock option exercises reduced by shares repurchased. The change in capital was reduced by share repurchases, primarily related to stock option exercises, which totaled $77.3 million or 1.8 million shares since March 31, 2004. Repurchases are made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions and are subject to market conditions, accumulation of excess equity and prudent capital management. Pursuant to board authority, FHN may repurchase shares from time to time for its stock option and other compensation plans and will evaluate the level of capital and take action designed to generate or use capital as appropriate, for the interests of the shareholders. In order to maintain FHN's well-capitalized status while sustaining the strong balance sheet growth anti
cipated in the near-term, FHN has raised $295.4 million of additional capital (see Corporate segment above), and did not repurchase a significant number of shares in first quarter 2005.

Average shareholders' equity increased 9 percent in first quarter 2005 to $2.0 billion from $1.9 billion, reflecting internal capital generation. The average shareholders' equity to average assets ratio was 5.97 percent for first quarter 2005 compared to 7.52 percent for first quarter 2004. The average tangible shareholders' equity to average tangible assets ratio was 4.95 percent for first quarter 2005 compared to 6.72 percent for first quarter 2004. Unrealized market valuations had no material effect on the ratios during first quarter 2005.

Banking regulators define minimum capital ratios for bank holding companies and their bank subsidiaries. Based on the capital rules and definitions prescribed by the banking regulators, should any depository institution's capital ratios decline below predetermined levels, it would become subject to a series of increasingly restrictive regulatory actions. The system categorizes a depository institution's capital position into one of five categories ranging from well-capitalized to critically under-capitalized. For an institution to qualify as well-capitalized, Tier 1 Capital, Total Capital and Leverage capital ratios must be at least 6 percent, 10 percent and 5 percent, respectively. As of March 31, 2005, FHN and FTBNA had sufficient capital to qualify as well-capitalized institutions as shown in Note 6 - Regulatory Capital.

RISK MANAGEMENT

FHN has an enterprise-wide approach to risk governance, measurement, management, and reporting including an economic capital allocation process that is tied to risk profiles used to measure risk-adjusted returns. The Enterprise-wide Risk/Return Management Committee oversees risk management governance. Committee membership includes the CEO and other executive officers of FHN. The Executive Vice President (EVP) of Risk Management oversees reporting for the committee. Risk management objectives include evaluating risks inherent in business strategies, monitoring proper balance of risks and returns, and managing risks to minimize the probability of future negative outcomes. The Enterprise-wide Risk/Return Management Committee oversees and receives regular reports from the Senior Credit Policy Committee, Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), Capital Management Committee and Operational Risk Committee. The EVP and Chief Credit Officer, EVP of Interest Rate Risk Management, EVP an
d Chief Financial Officer and EVP of Risk Management chair these committees respectively. Reports regarding Credit, Asset/Liability, Market, Capital Management and Operational Risks are provided to the Executive and Audit Committees of the Board and to the full Board.

Risk management practices include key elements such as independent checks and balances, formal authority limits, policies and procedures, and portfolio management all executed through experienced personnel. The internal audit department also evaluates risk management activities. These activities include performing internal audits, the results of which are reviewed with management and the Audit Committee, as appropriate.

INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT

The primary objective of managing interest rate risk is to minimize the volatility to earnings from changes in interest rates and preserve the value of FHN's capital. ALCO, a committee consisting of senior management that meets regularly, is responsible for coordinating the financial management of interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is managed by structuring the balance sheet to attempt to maintain the desired level of net interest income and other revenue while managing interest sensitivity risk and liquidity. Derivative financial instruments are used to aid in managing the exposure of the balance sheet and related net interest income and noninterest income to changes in interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity risk is defined as the risk that future changes in interest rates will adversely impact income.

FHN's net interest income and its financial condition are affected by changes in the level of market interest rates as the repricing characteristics of its loans and other assets do not necessarily match those of its deposits, other borrowings and capital. To the extent that earning assets reprice more quickly than liabilities, this position will benefit net interest income in a rising interest rate environment and will negatively impact net interest income in a declining interest rate environment. In the case of floating-rate assets and liabilities, FHN may also be exposed to basis risk, which results from changing spreads between loan and deposit rates.

LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT

ALCO focuses on being able to fund assets with liabilities of the appropriate duration, as well as the risk of not being able to meet unexpected cash needs. The objective of liquidity management is to ensure the continuous availability of funds to meet the demands of depositors, other creditors and borrowers, and the requirements of ongoing operations. This objective is met by maintaining liquid assets in the form of trading securities and securities available for sale, maintaining sufficient unused borrowing capacity in the national money markets, growing core deposits, and the repayment of loans and the capability to sell or securitize loans. ALCO is responsible for managing these needs by taking into account the marketability of assets; the sources, stability and availability of funding; and the level of unfunded commitments. Funds are available from a number of sources, including core deposits, the securities available for sale portfolio, the Federal Home Loan Bank,
the Federal Reserve Board, access to capital markets through issuance of senior or subordinated bank notes and institutional certificates of deposit, availability to the overnight and term Federal Funds markets, access to retail brokered certificates of deposit, dealer and commercial customer repurchase agreements, and through the sale or securitization of loans.

Core deposits are a significant source of funding and have been a stable source of liquidity for banks. These deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to the extent authorized by law. For first quarter 2005 and 2004, the average total loans, excluding loans held for sale, to core deposits ratio was 146 percent and 137 percent, respectively. As loan growth currently exceeds core deposit growth, alternative sources of funding loan growth may be necessary in order to maintain an adequate liquidity position. One means of maintaining a stable liquidity position is to sell loans either through whole-loan sales or loan securitizations. FHN periodically evaluates its liquidity position in conjunction with determining its ability and intent to hold loans to maturity.

FTBNA also has the ability to enhance its liquidity position by issuing preferred equity or incurring other debt. FHN also evaluates alternative sources of funding, including loan sales, securitizations, syndications, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, debt offerings and equity

offerings in its management of liquidity. Due to considerable growth of the HELOC portfolio, whole-loan sales and securitizations of this loan type are an important funding source and should grow in significance in future periods.

Prior to February 2005, FTBNA had a bank note program under which the bank was able to borrow funds from time to time at maturities of 30 days to 30 years. This bank note program has been terminated in connection with the establishment of the new program. That termination does not affect any previously-issued notes outstanding. In February 2005, FTBNA established a new bank note program providing additional liquidity of $5.0 billion. This bank note program provides FTBNA with a facility under which it may continuously issue and offer short- and medium-term unsecured notes. On March 31, 2005, $5.0 billion was available under current conditions through the bank note program as a funding source.

Liquidity has also been obtained through FTBNA's issuance of 300,000 shares of noncumulative perpetual preferred stock which provided $295.4 million additional capital (see also Note 10 – Preferred Stock of Subsidiary). In addition, liquidity has been obtained through issuance of $300.0 million of guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in FHN's junior subordinated debentures through two Delaware business trusts wholly owned by FHN and through preferred stock issued by an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of FHN ($45.7 million on March 31, 2005).

The Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows provide information on cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2005 and 2004. In first quarter 2005, net cash flows from operating activities were negative primarily due to increased liquidity demands of the SLK acquisition. In 2004, net cash flows from operating activities were negative as the mortgage warehouse increased from 2003 year-end levels primarily due to a drop in mortgage interest rates during first quarter 2004. Since mortgage warehouse loans are generally held in inventory for a short period of time, there may be significant differences in period-end balances. Earnings represented a significant source of liquidity, consistently providing positive cash flows in both periods. Growth in deposits comprised a significant portion of FHN's positive cash flows from financing activities in both periods, and these funds were utilized to meet the liq
uidity needs related to the strong loan growth that is reflected in the negative cash flows from investing activities in 2005 and 2004. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock by FTBNA contributed to positive cash flows from financing activities in first quarter 2005. Negative cash flows from investing activities also resulted from a larger investment portfolio due to balance sheet repositioning. Sales and maturities of investment securities largely offset purchases in 2004.

Parent company liquidity is maintained by cash flows from dividends and interest payments collected from subsidiaries, which represent the primary source of funds to pay dividends to shareholders and interest to debt holders. The parent company also has the ability to enhance its liquidity position by raising equity or incurring debt. Under an effective shelf registration statement on file with the SEC, FHN, as of March 31, 2005, may offer from time to time at its discretion, debt securities, and common and preferred stock aggregating up to $125 million.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND OTHER CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

First Horizon Home Loans originates mortgage loans through its retail and wholesale operations and also purchases mortgage loans from third-party mortgage bankers (known as correspondent brokers) for sale to secondary market investors and subsequently services the majority of those loans. Additionally, FTN Financial Capital Assets Corporation frequently purchases the same types of loans from customers. Substantially all of these mortgage loans are exchanged for securities, which are issued through investors, including government-sponsored enterprises (GSE), such as GNMA for federally insured loans and FNMA and FHLMC for conventional loans, and then sold in the secondary markets. Each of the GSE has specific guidelines and criteria for sellers and servicers of loans backing their respective securities. Many private investors are also active in the secondary market as issuers and investors. The risk of credit loss with regard to the principal amount of the loans sold
is generally transferred to investors upon sale to the secondary market. To the extent that transferred loans are subsequently determined not to meet the agreed-upon qualifications or criteria, the purchaser has the right to return those loans to FHN. In addition, certain mortgage loans are sold to investors with limited or full recourse in the event of mortgage foreclosure (refer to discussion of foreclosure reserves under Critical Accounting Policies). After sale, these loans are not reflected on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition.

FHN's use of GSE as an efficient outlet for mortgage loan production is an essential source of liquidity for FHN and other participants in the housing industry. During first quarter 2005, $3.9 billion of conventional and federally insured mortgage loans were securitized and sold by First Horizon Home Loans through these GSE.

Certain of FHN's originated loans, including second-lien mortgages and HELOC originated primarily through FTBNA, do not conform to the requirements for sale or securitization through GSE. FHN pools and securitizes these non-conforming loans in proprietary transactions. After securitization and sale, these loans are not reflected on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition. These transactions, which are conducted through single-purpose business trusts, are the most efficient way for FHN and other participants in the housing industry to monetize these assets. On March 31, 2005, the outstanding principal amount of loans in these off-balance sheet business trusts

was $13.0 billion. Given the significance of FHN's origination of non-conforming loans, the use of single-purpose business trusts to securitize these loans is an important source of liquidity to FHN.

FHN has various other financial obligations, which may require future cash payments. Purchase obligations represent obligations under agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on FHN and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased, fixed, minimum or variable price provisions, and the approximate timing of the transaction. In addition, FHN enters into commitments to extend credit to borrowers, including loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit. These commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements, in that these commitments often expire without being drawn upon.

MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT

Capital markets buys and sells various types of securities for its customers. When these securities settle on a delayed basis, they are considered forward contracts. Inventory positions are limited to the procurement of securities solely for distribution to customers by the sales staff, and ALCO policies and guidelines have been established with the objective of limiting the risk in managing this inventory.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT

Credit risk is the risk of loss due to adverse changes in a borrower's ability to meet its financial obligations under agreed upon terms. FHN is subject to credit risk in lending, trading, investing, liquidity/funding and asset management activities. The nature and amount of credit risk depends on the types of transactions, the structure of those transactions and the parties involved. In general, credit risk is incidental to trading, liquidity/funding and asset management activities, while it is central to the profit strategy in lending. As a result, the majority of credit risk is associated with lending activities.

FHN has processes and management committees in place that are designed to assess and monitor credit risks. Management's Asset Quality Committee has the responsibility to evaluate its assessment of current asset quality for each lending product. In addition, the Asset Quality Committee evaluates the projected changes in classified loans, non-performing assets and charge-offs. A primary objective of this committee is to provide information about changing trends in asset quality by region or loan product, and to provide to senior management a current assessment of credit quality as part of the estimation process for determining the allowance for loan losses. The Senior Credit Watch Committee has primary responsibility to enforce proper loan risk grading, to identify credit problems, and to monitor actions to rehabilitate certain credits. Management also has a Senior Credit Policy Committee that is responsible for enterprise-wide credit risk oversight and provides a forum f
or addressing management issues. The committee also recommends credit policies, which are submitted for approval to the Executive Committee of the Board, and underwriting guidelines to manage the level and composition of credit risk in its loan portfolio and review performance relative to these policies. In addition, the Financial Counterparty Credit Committee, composed of senior managers, assesses the credit risk of financial counterparties and sets limits for exposure based upon the credit quality of the counterparty. FHN's goal is to manage risk and price loan products based on risk management decisions and strategies. Management strives to identify potential problem loans and nonperforming loans early enough to correct the deficiencies. It is management's objective that both charge-offs and asset write-downs are recorded promptly, based on management's assessments of current collateral values and the borrower's ability to repay.

OPERATIONAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Operational risk is the risk of loss from inadequate or failed internal processes, people, and systems or from external events. This risk is inherent in all businesses. Management, measurement, and reporting of operational risk are overseen by the Operational Risk Committee, which is chaired by the EVP of Risk Management. Key representatives from the business segments, legal, shared services, risk management, and insurance are represented on the committee. Subcommittees manage and report on business continuity planning, data security, insurance, compliance, records management, product and system development and reputation risks. Summary reports of the committee's activities and decisions are provided to the Enterprise-wide Risk/Return Management Committee. Significant emphasis is dedicated to refinement of processes and tools to aid in measuring and managing material operational risks and providing for a culture of awareness and accountability.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

FHN's accounting policies are fundamental to understanding management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations. The consolidated condensed financial statements of FHN are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and follow general practices within the industries in which it operates. The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make certain judgments and assumptions in determining accounting estimates. Accounting estimates are considered critical if (a) the estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (b) different estimates reasonably could have been used in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, that would have a material impact on the presentation of FHN's financial condition, changes in
financial condition or results of operations.

It is management's practice to discuss critical accounting policies with the Board of Directors' Audit Committee including the development, selection and disclosure of the critical accounting estimates. Management believes the following critical accounting policies are both important to the portrayal of the company's financial condition and results of operations and require subjective or complex judgments. These judgments about critical accounting estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements.

MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS AND OTHER RELATED RETAINED INTERESTS

When First Horizon Home Loans sells mortgage loans in the secondary market to investors, it generally retains the right to service the loans sold in exchange for a servicing fee that is collected over the life of the loan as the payments are received from the borrower. An amount is capitalized as MSR on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition based on the expected present value of the anticipated cash flows received for servicing the loan, net of the estimated costs of servicing the loan. During first quarter 2005 and 2004, First Horizon Home Loans capitalized $85.1 million and $57.2 million, respectively, of MSR in connection with sales of first-lien mortgage loans in the secondary market and acquisition of servicing rights from third parties. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, the total outstanding principal amount of First Horizon Home Loans' first-lien servicing portfolio aggregated $88.0 billion and $70.3 billion, respectively.

MSR Estimated Fair Value

The fair value of MSR typically rises as market interest rates increase and declines as market interest rates decrease; however, the extent to which this occurs depends in-part on (1) the magnitude of changes in market interest rates, and (2) the differential between the then current market interest rates for mortgage loans and the mortgage interest rates included in the mortgage-servicing portfolio.

Since sales of MSR tend to occur in private transactions and the precise terms and conditions of the sales are typically not readily available, there is a limited market to refer to in determining the fair value of MSR. As such, like other participants in the mortgage banking business, First Horizon Home Loans relies primarily on a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of its MSR. This model calculates estimated fair value of the MSR using numerous tranches of MSR, which share similar key characteristics, such as interest rates, type of product (fixed vs. variable), age (new, seasoned, moderate), agency type and other factors. First Horizon Home Loans uses assumptions in the model that it believes are comparable to those used by other participants in the mortgage banking business and reviews estimated fair values and assumptions with third-party brokers and other service providers on a quarterly basis. First Horizon Home Loans also compares its estimates
of fair value and assumptions to recent market activity and against its own experience.

Estimating the cash flow components of net servicing income from the loan and the resultant fair value of the MSR requires FHN to make several critical assumptions based upon current market and loan production data.

Prepayment Speeds: Generally, when market interest rates decline and other factors favorable to prepayments occur there is a corresponding increase in actual and expected borrower prepayments as customers refinance existing mortgages under more favorable interest rate terms. When a mortgage loan is prepaid, or is expected to prepay faster than originally expected, the anticipated cash flows associated with servicing that loan are terminated or reduced, resulting in a reduction, or impairment, to the fair value of the capitalized MSR. To estimate prepayment speeds, First Horizon Home Loans utilizes a third-party prepayment model, which is based upon statistically derived data linked to certain key principal indicators involving historical borrower prepayment activity associated with mortgage loans in the secondary market, current market interest rates and other factors. For purposes of model valuation, estimates are made for each product type within the MSR portfo
lio on a monthly basis.

Discount Rate: Represents the rate at which the expected cash flows are discounted to arrive at the net present value of servicing income. Discount rates will change with market conditions (i.e., supply vs. demand) and be reflective of the yields expected to be earned by market participants investing in MSR.

Cost to Service: Expected costs to service are estimated based upon the incremental costs that a market participant would use in evaluating the potential acquisition of MSR.

Float Income: Estimated float income is driven by expected float balances (principal, interest and escrow payments that are held pending remittance to the investor) and current market interest rates, including the thirty-day London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and five-year swap interest rates, which are updated on a monthly basis for purposes of estimating the fair market value of MSR.

First Horizon Home Loans engages in a process referred to as "price discovery" on a monthly basis to assess the reasonableness of the estimated fair value of MSR. Price discovery is conducted through a process of obtaining the following information: (a) monthly informal valuation of the servicing portfolio by a prominent mortgage-servicing broker, and (b) a collection of surveys and benchmarking data available through third party participants in the mortgage banking business. Although there is no single source of market information that can be relied upon to assess the fair value of MSR, First Horizon Home Loans reviews all information obtained during price discovery to determine whether the estimated fair value of MSR is reasonable when compared to market information. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, First Horizon Home Loans determined that its MSR valuations and assumptions were reasonable based on the price discovery process.

The First Horizon Risk Management Committee (FHRMC) submits the overall assessment of the estimated fair value of MSR monthly for review. The FHRMC is responsible for approving the critical assumptions used by management to determine the estimated fair value of First Horizon Home Loans' MSR. Each quarter, FHN's MSR Committee reviews the original valuation, impairment, and the initial capitalization rates for newly originated MSR. In addition, the Executive Committee of FHN's board of directors reviews the initial capitalization rates and approves the amortization expense.

MSR are included on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition, net of accumulated amortization. The changes in value of MSR are included as a component of Mortgage Banking – Noninterest Income on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

Hedging the Fair Value of MSR

In order to provide protection from a decline in the fair value of MSR due to changes in the benchmark interest rate, First Horizon Home Loans employs a hedging strategy. This strategy uses derivative financial instruments expected to change in fair value in response to changes in a certain benchmark interest rate (specifically, the 10-year LIBOR swap) in amounts that will substantially offset the change in fair value of certain MSR. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, hedged MSR approximated 98 percent and 95 percent, respectively, of the total MSR portfolio, as measured on a dollar at risk basis.

In order to substantially hedge the change in fair value of the hedged MSR, First Horizon Home Loans generally maintains a coverage ratio (the ratio of expected change in fair value of derivatives to expected change in fair value of MSR) approximating 100 percent of the hedged MSR portfolio. As noted above, to the extent that actual borrower prepayments do not react as anticipated by the prepayment model (i.e., the historical data observed in the model does not correspond to actual market activity), it is possible that the prepayment model could fail to accurately predict mortgage prepayments and could result in significant earnings volatility. Pursuant to SFAS No. 133, in any hedge period the difference between the change in fair value of the hedged MSR, attributed to the change in the benchmark interest rate, and the change in fair value of the derivatives used to hedge the change in fair value of the MSR is recognized as gains or losses in current earnings. First Hor
izon Home Loans generally attempts to hedge 100 percent of the exposure to a change in the fair value of the hedged MSR attributed to a change in the benchmark interest rate, which requires a regular assessment of the amount of derivative financial instruments required to maintain a 100 percent hedge ratio.

Certain components of the fair value of derivatives used to hedge certain MSR are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Although those amounts are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness, they are included as a component of current earnings in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. The derivative financial instruments used to hedge the change in fair value of hedged MSR primarily include forward contracts, interest rate swaps and swaptions.

First Horizon Home Loans generally experiences increased loan origination and production in periods of low interest rates, which at the time of sale, result in the capitalization of new MSR associated with new production. This provides for a "natural hedge" in the mortgage banking business cycle. New production and origination does not prevent First Horizon Home Loans from recognizing impairment expense on existing servicing rights as a result of prepayments; rather, the new production volume results in loan origination fees and the capitalization of MSR as a component of realized gains related to the sale of such loans in the secondary market, thus the natural hedge, which tends to offset a portion of the MSR impairment charges during a period of low interest rates. In a period of increased borrower prepayments, impairment can be significantly offset by a strong replenishment rate and strong net margins on new loan originations. To the extent that First Horiz
on Home Loans is unable to maintain a strong replenishment rate, or in the event that the net margin on new loan originations

declines from historical experience, the value of the natural hedge may diminish, thereby significantly impacting the results of operations in a period of increased borrower prepayments.

First Horizon Home Loans does not specifically hedge the change in fair value of MSR attributed to other risks, including unanticipated prepayments (representing the difference between actual prepayment experience and estimated prepayments derived from the model, as described above), basis risk (meaning, the risk that changes in the benchmark interest rate may not correlate to changes in the mortgage market interest rate), discount rates, cost to service and other factors. To the extent that these other factors result in changes to the fair value of MSR, First Horizon experiences volatility in current earnings due to the fact that these risks are not currently hedged.

Actual vs. Estimated MSR Critical Assumptions

As discussed above, the estimate of the cash flow components of net servicing income associated with MSR requires management to make several critical assumptions based upon current market and loan production data, including prepayment speeds, discount rate, cost to service and float income. Inherent in estimating such assumptions are uncertainties associated with the mortgage banking business (primarily, the change in market interest rates which vary significantly due to multiple economic and non-economic factors) as well as the composition of the MSR portfolio, which is not static and changes significantly based upon the production and sale of new loans, customer prepayment experience and other factors. As a result, the estimated assumptions used to value MSR – particularly the estimate of prepayment speeds – can vary significantly from actual experience, resulting in the recognition of additional impairment charges in current earnings. Table 8 provides
a summary of actual and estimated weighted average prepayment speeds and float income used in determining the estimated fair value of MSR for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. Although the estimates of discount rates and cost to service assumptions used in determining the estimated fair value of MSR can vary from actual experience, such differences have not been material for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

For the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, the amortization rates calculated by the model were 16.2 percent and 16.4 percent, respectively, while the related actual runoff was 22.7 percent and 27.6 percent, respectively. The difference between the amortization rate calculated by the model and the actual runoff experienced was the primary reason for the impairment charges associated with MSR, during the same periods of $10.4 million and $14.6 million, respectively.

-	A non-stock option plan-related authority was announced on October 18, 2000, authorizing the purchase of up to 9.5 million shares. On October 16, 2001, it was announced that FHN's board of directors extended the expiration date of this program from June 30, 2002, until December 31, 2004. On October 19, 2004, the board of directors extended the authorization until December 31, 2007.

Interest-Only Certificates Fair Value - Residential Mortgage Loans

In certain cases, when First Horizon Home Loans sells mortgage loans in the secondary market, it retains an interest in the mortgage loans sold primarily through interest-only certificates. Interest-only certificates are financial assets, which represent rights to receive earnings from serviced assets that exceed contractually specified servicing fees. Consistent with MSR, the fair value of an interest-only certificate typically rises as market interest rates increase and declines as market interest rates decrease. Additionally, similar to MSR, the market for interest-only certificates is limited, and the precise terms of transactions involving interest-only certificates are not typically readily available. Accordingly, First Horizon Home Loans relies primarily on a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of its interest-only certificates.

Estimating the cash flow components and the resultant fair value of the interest-only certificates requires First Horizon Home Loans to make certain critical assumptions based upon current market and loan production data. The primary critical assumptions used by First Horizon Home Loans to estimate the fair value of interest-only securities include prepayment speeds and discount rates, as discussed above. First Horizon Home Loans' interest-only certificates are included as a component of trading securities on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition, with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in current earnings as a component of mortgage banking income on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

Hedging the Fair Value of Interest-Only Certificates

First Horizon Home Loans employs an economic hedging strategy for interest-only certificates, which uses derivative financial instruments expected to change in fair value in response to changes in a certain benchmark interest rate (specifically, the 10-year LIBOR swap) in amounts which will substantially offset the change in fair value of certain interest-only certificates. Realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with the change in fair value of derivatives used in the economic hedge of interest-only securities are included in current earnings on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. The extent to which the change in fair value of interest-only securities is offset by the change in fair value of the derivatives used to hedge these instruments depends primarily on the hedge coverage ratio maintained by First Horizon Home Loans. Also, as noted above, to the extent that actual borrower prepayments do not react as anticipated by the prepayment model (i.e., the historical data observed i
n the model does not correspond to actual market activity), it is possible that the prepayment model could fail to accurately predict mortgage prepayments, which could significantly impact First Horizon Home Loans' ability to effectively hedge certain components of the change in fair value of interest-only certificates and could result in significant earnings volatility. The derivative financial instruments used to hedge the change in fair value of hedged interest-only certificates primarily include forward contracts, interest rate swaps and swaptions.

Residual-Interest Certificates Fair Value - HELOC and Second-lien Mortgages
In certain cases, when First Horizon Equity Lending sells HELOC or second-lien mortgages in the secondary market, it retains an interest in the loans sold primarily through a residual-interest certificate. Residual-interest certificates are financial assets, which represent rights to receive earnings to the extent of excess income generated by the underlying loan collateral of certain mortgage-backed securities, which is not needed to meet contractual obligations of senior security holders. The fair value of a residual-interest certificate typically changes based on the differences between modeled prepayment speeds and credit losses and actual experience. Additionally, similar to MSR and interest-only certificates, the market for residual-interest certificates is limited, and the precise terms of transactions involving residual-interest certificates are not typically readily available.
Accordingly, FHN relies primarily on a discounted cash flow model, which is prepared monthly, to estimate the fair value of its residual-interest certificates.

Estimating the cash flow components and the resultant fair value of the residual-interest certificates requires FHN to make certain critical assumptions based upon current market and loan production data. The primary critical assumptions used by FHN to estimate the fair value of residual-interest securities include prepayment speeds, credit losses and discount rates, as discussed above. FHN's residual-interest certificates are included as a component of trading securities on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition, with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in current earnings as a component of other income on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

PIPELINE AND WAREHOUSE

During the period of loan origination and prior to the sale of mortgage loans in the secondary market, First Horizon Home Loans has exposure to mortgage loans that are in the "mortgage pipeline" and the "mortgage warehouse". The mortgage pipeline consists of loan applications that have been received, but have not yet closed as loans. Pipeline loans are either "floating" or "locked". A floating pipeline loan is one on which an interest rate has not been locked by the borrower. A locked pipeline loan is one on which the potential borrower has set the interest rate for the loan by entering into an interest rate lock commitment resulting in interest rate risk to First Horizon Home Loans. Once a mortgage loan is closed and funded, it is included within the mortgage warehouse, or the "inventory" of mortgage loans that are awaiting sale and delivery (currently an average of approximately 30 days) into the secondary market. First Horizon Home Loans is exposed to c
redit risk while a mortgage loan is in the warehouse.

An interest rate lock commitment binds First Horizon Home Loans to lend funds to the potential borrower at the set interest rate, which expires on a fixed date regardless of whether or not interest rates change in the market. Interest rate lock commitments generally have a term of up to 60 days before the closing of the loan. The interest rate lock commitment, however, does not bind the potential borrower to entering into the loan, nor does it guarantee that First Horizon Home Loans will approve the potential borrower for the loan. Therefore, First Horizon Home Loans makes estimates of expected "fallout" (locked pipeline loans not expected to close), using models which consider cumulative historical fallout rates and other factors. Fallout can occur for a variety of reasons including falling rate environments when a borrower will abandon an interest rate lock commitment at one lender and enter into a new lower interest rate lock commitment at another, when a b
orrower is not approved as an acceptable credit by the lender, or for a variety of other non-economic reasons. Note that once a loan is closed, the risk of fallout is eliminated and the associated mortgage loan is included in the mortgage loan warehouse. Under SFAS No. 133, interest rate lock commitments qualify as derivative financial instruments and, therefore, the changes in fair value of interest rate lock commitments are included in current earnings in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. Third party models are used in managing interest rate risk related to price movements on loans in the pipeline and the warehouse.

For periods ended before April 1, 2004, like other participants in the mortgage banking business, First Horizon Home Loans relied primarily on an internal valuation model and one of several industry valuation techniques to estimate the fair value of interest rate lock commitments

and the mortgage warehouse. This model calculated the estimated fair value using tranches of mortgage loans that are determined to share similar price behavior, which is determined by historical relationships of various product types, terms and interest rates. For purposes of determining the market values for forward commitments to sell mortgage loans in the secondary market, First Horizon Home Loans obtained market prices from independent third parties, which represent actual trade activity in the secondary market. For purposes of determining the fair value of interest rate lock commitments, management utilized the median broker price information obtained in the secondary market, resulting in an asset with an estimated fair value of $29.6 million on March 31, 2004.

For the period ended March 31, 2005, the valuation model utilized to estimate the fair value of interest rate lock commitments assumes a zero fair value on the date of the lock with the borrower. Subsequent to the lock date, the model calculates the change in value due solely to the change in interest rates resulting in a liability with an estimated fair value of $5.2 million on March 31, 2005.

To hedge against changes in fair value of the mortgage pipeline and warehouse due to changes in interest rates, First Horizon Home Loans utilizes various derivative financial instruments, which management expects will experience changes in fair value opposite to the changes in fair value of the loans in the pipeline and warehouse, thus minimizing earnings volatility. The instruments and techniques used to hedge the pipeline and warehouse include forward sales commitments and other interest rate derivatives. The extent to which First Horizon Home Loans is able to economically hedge changes in the mortgage pipeline depends largely on the hedge coverage ratio that is maintained relative to mortgage loans in the pipeline. The hedge coverage ratio can change significantly due to changes in market interest rates and the associated forward commitment prices for sales of mortgage loans in the secondary market. Increases or decreases in the hedge coverage ratio can result in sig
nificant earnings volatility to FHN. First Horizon Home Loans does not specifically hedge the change in fair value of the mortgage pipeline attributed to other risks, including basis risk and other factors.

FORECLOSURE RESERVES

As discussed above, First Horizon Home Loans typically originates mortgage loans with the intent to sell those loans to GSE and other private investors in the secondary market. Certain of the mortgage loans are sold with limited or full recourse in the event of foreclosure. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, $3.4 billion and $3.7 billion, respectively, of mortgage loans were outstanding which were sold under limited recourse arrangements where some portion of the principal is at risk. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, $190.5 million and $255.2 million, respectively, of mortgage loans were outstanding which were sold under full recourse arrangements.

Loans sold with limited recourse include loans sold under government guaranteed mortgage loan programs including the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and Veterans Administration (VA). First Horizon Home Loans continues to absorb losses due to uncollected interest and foreclosure costs and/or limited risk of credit losses in the event of foreclosure of the mortgage loan sold. Generally, the amount of recourse liability in the event of foreclosure is determined based upon the respective government program and/or the sale or disposal of the foreclosed property collateralizing the mortgage loan. Another instance of limited recourse is the VA/No bid. In this case, the VA guarantee is limited and First Horizon Home Loans may be required to fund any deficiency in excess of the VA guarantee if the loan goes to foreclosure.

Loans sold with full recourse generally include mortgage loans sold to investors in the secondary market which are uninsurable under government guaranteed mortgage loan programs, due to issues associated with underwriting activities, documentation or other concerns.

Management closely monitors historical experience, borrower payment activity, current economic trends and other risk factors, and establishes a reserve for foreclosure losses for loans sold with limited and full recourse which management believes is sufficient to cover incurred foreclosure losses in the portfolio. The reserve for foreclosure losses is based upon a historical progression model using a rolling 12-month average, which predicts the probability or frequency of a mortgage loan entering foreclosure. In addition, other factors are considered, including qualitative and quantitative factors (e.g., current economic conditions, past collection experience, risk characteristics of the current portfolio and other factors), which are not defined by historical loss trends or severity of losses. On March 31, 2005 and 2004, the foreclosure reserve was $16.5 million and $20.2 million, respectively. While the servicing portfolio has grown from $70.3 billion on March 31, 200
4, to $88.0 billion on March 31, 2005, the foreclosure reserve has decreased primarily due to a reduction in the recourse portfolio.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

Management's policy is to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level sufficient to absorb estimated probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. Management performs periodic and systematic detailed reviews of its loan portfolio to identify trends and to assess the overall collectibility of the loan portfolio. Accounting standards require that loan losses be recorded when management determines it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Management believes the accounting estimate related to the allowance for loan losses is a "critical accounting estimate" because: changes in it can materially affect the provision for loan losses and net income, it requires management to predict borrowers' likelihood or capacity to repay, and it requires management to distinguish between losses incurred as of a balance sheet date and losses expected to be incurred in the future. Accordingly, this is a highly

subjective process and requires significant judgment since it is often difficult to determine when specific loss events may actually occur. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses and recoveries and is decreased by charged-off loans. This critical accounting estimate applies primarily to the Retail/Commercial Banking segment. The Executive Committee of FHN's board of directors approves the level of the allowance for loan losses.

FHN's methodology for estimating the allowance for loan losses is not only critical to the accounting estimate, but to the credit risk management function as well. Key components of the estimation process are as follows: (1) commercial loans determined by management to be individually impaired loans are evaluated individually and specific reserves are determined based on the difference between the outstanding loan amount and the estimated net realizable value of the collateral (if collateral dependent) or the present value of expected future cash flows; (2) individual commercial loans not considered to be individually impaired are segmented based on similar credit risk characteristics and evaluated on a pool basis; (3) retail loans are segmented based on loan types and credit score bands and loan to value; (4) reserve rates for each portfolio segment are calculated based on historical charge-offs and are adjusted by management to reflect current events, trends and condi
tions (including economic factors and trends); and (5) management's estimate of probable incurred losses reflects the reserve rate applied against the balance of loans in each segment of the loan portfolio.

Principal loan amounts are charged off against the allowance for loan losses in the period in which the loan or any portion of the loan is deemed to be uncollectible.

FHN believes that the critical assumptions underlying the accounting estimate made by management include: (1) the commercial loan portfolio has been properly risk graded based on information about borrowers in specific industries and specific issues with respect to single borrowers; (2) borrower specific information made available to FHN is current and accurate; (3) the loan portfolio has been segmented properly and individual loans have similar credit risk characteristics and will behave similarly; (4) known significant loss events that have occurred were considered by management at the time of assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses; (5) the economic factors utilized in the allowance for loan losses estimate are used as a measure of actual incurred losses; (6) the period of history used for historical loss factors is indicative of the current environment; and (7) the reserve rates, as well as other adjustments estimated by management for current events
, trends, and conditions, utilized in the process reflect an estimate of losses that have been incurred as of the date of the financial statements.

While management uses the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses and methodology may be necessary if economic or other conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the estimates or, if required by regulators, based upon information at the time of their examinations. Such adjustments to original estimates, as necessary, are made in the period in which these factors and other relevant considerations indicate that loss levels vary from previous estimates. There have been no significant changes to the methodology for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

GOODWILL AND ASSESSMENT OF IMPAIRMENT

FHN's policy is to assess goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis or between annual assessments if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Accounting standards require management to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit in making the assessment of impairment at least annually. As of October 1, 2004, FHN engaged an independent valuation firm to compute the fair value estimates of each reporting unit as part of its annual impairment assessment. The independent valuation utilized three separate valuation methodologies and applied a weighted average to each methodology in order to determine fair value for each reporting unit. The valuation as of October 1, 2004, indicated no goodwill impairment for any of the reporting un
its.

Management believes the accounting estimates associated with determining fair value as part of the goodwill impairment test is a "critical accounting estimate" because estimates and assumptions are made about FHN's future performance and cash flows, as well as other prevailing market factors (interest rates, economic trends, etc.). FHN's policy allows management to make the determination of fair value using internal cash flow models or by engaging independent third parties. If a charge to operations for impairment results, this amount would be reported separately as a component of noninterest expense. This critical accounting estimate applies to the Retail/Commercial Banking, Mortgage Banking, and Capital Markets business segments. Reporting units have been defined as the same level as the operating business segments.

The impairment testing process conducted by FHN begins by assigning net assets and goodwill to each reporting unit. FHN then completes "step one" of the impairment test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit (as determined based on the discussion below) with the recorded book value (or "carrying amount") of its net assets, with goodwill included in the computation of the carrying amount. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of that reporting unit is not considered impaired, and "step two" of the impairment test is not necessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, step two of the impairment test is performed to determine the amount of impairment. Step two of the impairment test compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill to the "implied fair value" of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is computed by assuming all asse
ts and liabilities of the

reporting unit would be adjusted to the current fair value, with the offset as an adjustment to goodwill. This adjusted goodwill balance is the implied fair value used in step two. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value.

In connection with obtaining the independent valuation, management provided certain data and information that was utilized by the third party in their determination of fair value. This information included budgeted and forecasted earnings of FHN at the reporting unit level. Management believes that this information is a critical assumption underlying the estimate of fair value. The independent third party made other assumptions critical to the process, including discount rates, asset and liability growth rates, and other income and expense estimates, through discussions with management.

While management uses the best information available to estimate future performance for each reporting unit, future adjustments to management's projections may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the estimates.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

A liability is contingent if the amount is not presently known, but may become known in the future as a result of the occurrence of some uncertain future event. FHN estimates its contingent liabilities based on management's estimates about the probability of outcomes and their ability to estimate the range of exposure. Accounting standards require that a liability be recorded if management determines that it is probable that a loss has occurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. In addition, it must be probable that the loss will be confirmed by some future event. As part of the estimation process, management is required to make assumptions about matters that are by their nature highly uncertain.

The assessment of contingent liabilities, including legal contingencies and income tax liabilities, involves the use of critical estimates, assumptions and judgments. Management's estimates are based on their belief that future events will validate the current assumptions regarding the ultimate outcome of these exposures. However, there can be no assurance that future events, such as court decisions or I.R.S. positions, will not differ from management's assessments. Whenever practicable, management consults with third party experts (attorneys, accountants, claims administrators, etc.) to assist with the gathering and evaluation of information related to contingent liabilities. Based on internally and/or externally prepared evaluations, management makes a determination whether the potential exposure requires accrual in the financial statements.

OTHER

ACCOUNTING CHANGES

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS No. 123-R), which requires recognition of expense over the requisite service period for awards of share-based compensation to employees. Due to SEC action in April 2005, the mandatory adoption date for SFAS No. 123-R was moved to January 1, 2006 with earlier adoption permitted. As permitted by the original SFAS No. 123, FHN has accounted for its equity awards under the provisions of APB No. 25. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, the grant date fair value of an award will be used to measure the compensation expense recognized for the award. For unvested awards granted prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, the fair values utilized will equal the values used in preparation of the disclosures required under the original SFAS No. 123. Compensation expense recognized after adoption of SFAS No. 123-R will incorporate an estimate of awards expected to ultimately vest, which req
uires estimation of forfeitures as well as projections related to the satisfaction of performance conditions that determine vesting. Upon initial adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, FHN is required to reclassify deferred compensation debit balances to capital surplus and to make a cumulative effect entry for outstanding unvested awards that are not expected to vest due to anticipated forfeiture. As permitted by SFAS No. 123-R, FHN intends to restate its prior period financial statements. Given the current structure of FHN's compensation program, utilization of the Black Scholes model and applying management's current interpretation, the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R is estimated to result in a reduction of 2006 pre-tax income between $16 million and $20 million, which represents $.08 to $.10 per share.

associated conditional retirement obligation. The retirement liability is accreted through interest expense to the estimated payouts that would be made in the future if settlement of the liability were to occur. Previously, FHN did not accrue any retirement liability for the expected retirement costs on these buildings due to the uncertainty associated with the timing and amount of payment. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal 2005. FHN is currently assessing the financial impact of adopting FIN 47.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The information called for by this item is contained in (a) Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included as Item 2 of Part I of this report at pages 22-44, (b) the section entitled "Risk Management – Interest Rate Risk Management" of the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition section of FHN's 2004 Annual Report to shareholders, and (c) the "Interest Rate Risk Management" subsection of Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in FHN's 2004 Annual Report to shareholders.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. FHN's management, with the participation of FHN's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of FHN's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that FHN's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information relating to FHN and FHN's consolidated subsidiaries is made known to such officers by others within these entities, particularly during the period this quarterly report was prepared, in order to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in FHN's internal control over financial reporting during FHN's last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, FHN's internal control over financial reporting.
