Note 6 Segment Reporting

Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” requires public companies to report certain financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments (as defined by management) and certain enterprise-wide financial information about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers.

The Company’s internal reporting process is organized into four segments that account for the Company’s principal activities: the delivery of financial services through its community banks in Mississippi (Mississippi Region), Tennessee (Tennessee Region) and Alabama (Alabama Region) and the delivery of insurance services through its insurance agency (Renasant Insurance). In order to more closely match expenses with revenues at the community bank level, direct and indirect expenses and revenues are allocated to the segments based on various factors, including percentage of loans, percentage of deposits, full-time employees, number of accounts serviced and actual sales. All of the Company’s products are offered to similar classes of customers and markets, are distributed using the same methods and operate in similar regulatory environments.

The following table provides financial information for our operating segments. The “Other” column in the following table represents financial information of the holding company and eliminations which are necessary for purposes of reconciling to the consolidated amounts.

Note 7 Mergers and Acquisitions

On January 1, 2005, the Company completed its acquisition of Heritage Financial Holding Corporation (“Heritage”), a bank holding company headquartered in Decatur, Alabama. Heritage was the parent of Heritage Bank and operated eight banking offices in Alabama. The acquisition allows the Company to expand its geographical footprint into the key markets of Birmingham, Decatur and Huntsville, Alabama.

Table of Contents

The Company issued 1,369,589 shares of its common stock and paid approximately $23,055 in cash for 100% of the voting equity interests in Heritage. The common stock issued by the Company was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The aggregate transaction value, including the value of Heritage’s options assumed by the Company, was $75,658. At January 1, 2005, Heritage had total assets of approximately $540,296, total loans of approximately $389,740, total deposits of approximately $380,998, and total stockholders’ equity of approximately $28,842. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded approximately $52,084 in intangible assets. The intangible assets are not deductible for income tax purposes.

In December 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 03-3 “Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer” (“SOP 03-3”). SOP 03-3 prohibits the carryover of an allowance for loan losses on certain loans acquired in a purchase business combination. Increases in expected cash flows to be collected from the contractual cash flows will be recognized as an adjustment of the loan’s yield over its remaining life, while decreases in expected cash flows will be recognized as an impairment. This accounting guidance became effective for loans acquired in fiscal years subsequent to December 15, 2004. The Company applied the guidance under SOP 03-3 to the loans acquired in connection with the acquisition of Heritage. As a result, the Company reduced the balance of $18,839 of Heritage loans acquired by a specific credit reserve of $5,742 from the allowance for loan losses. These loans are now carried at a balance which management believes, based on the facts and circumstances surrounding each respective loan at the date of acquisition, represents their future cash flows. Management continually monitors these loans individually as part of its normal credit review and monitoring procedures for changes in the estimated future cash flows. At March 31, 2005, none of the allowance for loan losses was allocated to these loans.

The following table summarizes the allocation of purchase price to assets and liabilities acquired based on their fair values on January 1, 2005:

Note 8 Subsequent Event

At the Company’s 2005 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on April 19, 2005, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock from 15,000,000 shares to 75,000,000 shares. At the meeting, the Company’s shareholders also approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to authorize 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with a par value of $01 per share. The company’s board of directors will determine, in its sole discretion, the rights, preferences and other terms of the shares the preferred stock at the time of the issuance of such shares. As a result of these actions, the Company now has a total of 80,000,000 shares of stock authorized, of which 75,000,000 shares are common stock and 5,000,000 shares are preferred stock.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)

This Form 10-Q may contain, or incorporate by reference, statements which may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees for future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include significant fluctuations in interest rates, inflation, economic recession, significant changes in the federal and state legal and regulatory environment, significant underperformance in our portfolio of outstanding loans, and competition in our markets. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time.

Overview

Renasant Corporation (formerly known as The Peoples Holding Company and referred to herein as the “Company”, “we,” “our,” or “us”), a Mississippi corporation, owns and operates Renasant Bank (formerly known as The Peoples Bank & Trust Company), a Mississippi-chartered bank with operations in Mississippi, Tennessee and Alabama, and Renasant Insurance, Inc. (formerly known as The Peoples Insurance Agency, Inc.), with operations in Mississippi. Renasant Insurance, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Renasant Bank. The Company has full service offices located throughout north Mississippi, southwest Tennessee and north Alabama.

On July 1, 2004, we completed our acquisition of Renasant Bancshares, Inc. (“Renasant Bancshares”), the parent company of Renasant Bank of Tennessee, which expanded our footprint into Tennessee. On March 31, 2005, Renasant Bank of Tennessee merged into Renasant Bank. On January 1, 2005, we completed our acquisition of Heritage Financial Holding Corporation (“Heritage”), the parent company of Heritage Bank, which expanded our footprint into Alabama. The financial condition and results of operations for both acquisitions are included in the Company’s financial statements since the date of relevant acquisition.

Financial Condition

Total assets for the Company increased to $2,320,164 on March 31, 2005 from $1,707,545 on December 31, 2004, representing an increase of 35.88%. The acquisition of Heritage contributed total assets of $540,296. The information contained in the ensuing paragraphs further discusses the increase in assets.

Cash and cash equivalents increased $12,596 from $56,025 at December 31, 2004, to $68,621 at March 31, 2005, and represented 2.96% of total assets at March 31, 2005, compared to 3.28% of total assets at December 31, 2004.

Our investment portfolio increased from $371,581 at December 31, 2004 to $425,196 at March 31, 2005. The acquisition of Heritage contributed investment securities with a balance of $94,866. The decline in the investment portfolio excluding the contribution from the Heritage acquisition was a result of the Company utilizing the cash flow from its investment portfolio to partially fund loan growth generated during the first quarter of 2005.

Mortgage loans held for sale were $32,623 at March 31, 2005 compared to $2,714 at December 31, 2004. The increase in mortgage loans held for sale is directly attributable to the mortgage loan operations of Heritage acquired on January 1, 2005. Originations of mortgage loans to be sold totaled $90,710 for the first three months of 2005 as compared to $45,331 for the full year of 2004. Mortgage loans to be sold are locked in at the contractual rate upon closing, thereby eliminating any interest rate risk for the Company. Gains and losses are realized at the time consideration is received and all other criteria for sales treatment have been met. These loans are typically sold within thirty days after the loan is funded. Although some interest income is derived from mortgage loans held for sale, the main source of income is gains from the sale of the mortgage loans in the secondary market.

The loan balance, net of unearned income, at March 31, 2005, was $1,572,103 representing an increase of $430,623, or 37.72%, from $1,141,480 at December 31, 2004. The acquisition of Heritage contributed total loans of $389,740. Excluding Heritage’s loans, loans increased $40,883 from December 31, 2004.

Table of Contents

Excluding the impact on the loan portfolio from the Heritage acquisition, the growth in loans during the first three months of 2005 is attributed in part to loan production from our Tennessee region. Loans in the Tennessee region grew $13,865 during the first three months of 2005. The Mississippi region continued to experience growth primarily in its DeSoto County market. DeSoto County, located just south of Memphis, Tennessee, continues to be one of the fastest growing counties in both Mississippi and the nation. The table below sets forth loans outstanding, according to loan type, net of unearned income.

Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to a large number of borrowers engaged in similar activities who would be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. At March 31, 2005, we had no significant concentrations of loans other than presented in the categories in the table above.

Intangible assets increased $50,982 to $101,406 at March 31, 2005 from $50,424 at December 31, 2004. The increase reflects $46,860, $4,590, and $634 of goodwill, core deposits intangible, and noncompete agreements, respectively, recorded January 1, 2005, in connection with the acquisition of Heritage. The core deposits intangible and noncompete agreements are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of ten and five years, respectively.

Other assets increased $32,148 from $65,726 at December 31, 2004, to $97,874 at March 31, 2005. This increase is primarily attributable to the Heritage acquisition. The increase also includes increases in Bank Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”), deferred tax assets and accrued interest receivable.

Total deposits increased $422,324 to $1,741,001 at March 31, 2005 from $1,318,677 on December 31, 2004. The acquisition of Heritage contributed total deposits of $380,998, including money market and savings accounts of $46,735 and time deposits of $221,924. Excluding Heritage’s deposits, total deposits increased $41,326, or 3.13%, from December 31, 2004 due to growth in money market and savings accounts and time deposits. Excluding Heritage, the balance of money market and savings accounts increased $5,778, or 10.75%, to $543,247 at March 31, 2005. Time deposits, excluding Heritage, increased $20,017 to $614,581 at March 31, 2005 as compared to December 31, 2004 as our use of public funds increased $15,051 over the same period.

We continue to utilize advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) to fund our loan portfolio. In order to mitigate interest rate risk, long term fixed rate loans have been match-funded with FHLB borrowings. Advances from the FHLB increased from $133,288 to $243,044 at March 31, 2005 compared to $109,756 at December 31, 2004. The acquisition of Heritage increased our FHLB advances by $91,135. At March 31, 2005, the weighted average maturity of the long-term portion of our FHLB advances was 3 years and 9 months while the weighted average rate was 3.45%.

During January 2005, we formed PHC Statutory Trust II for the purpose of issuing corporation-obligated mandatory redeemable capital securities to third-party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of such capital securities solely in floating rate junior debentures of the Company. The $31,000 issue provided us funds for the cash portion of the Heritage acquisition. The 30-year junior subordinated debentures pay interest quarterly equal to the three month LIBOR plus 187 basis points. In connection with the Heritage acquisition, we assumed $10,000 in fixed-rate junior subordinated debentures issued by Heritage. These junior subordinated debentures have similar characteristics to our debentures and, as such, qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes.

Shareholders’ equity increased $51,850, or 28.96%, to $230,892 at March 31, 2005 compared to $179,042 at December 31, 2004, primarily as a result of the Heritage acquisition which increased shareholders’ equity $51,415.

Other factors contributing to the change in capital include current year earnings, treasury stock purchases, cash dividends declared, and unrealized security portfolio gains.

Results of Operations

Summary

Net income for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, was $5,459 an increase of $812, or 17.47%, from net income of $4,647 for the same period in 2004. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, were $.52, a decrease of 8.77% from basic and diluted earnings per share of $.57 for the comparable period a year ago. The acquisitions of Renasant Bancshares and Heritage each had a $0.02 per share dilutive impact on earnings for the first three months of 2005.

Net income for the first three months of 2005 was negatively impacted by $244, or $.02 per share, in after-tax merger expenses related to the Heritage acquisition. These expenses consist primarily of conversion-related expenses. The Company also incurred $160, or $.02 per share, in after-tax costs associated with changing the name of our subsidiary bank and insurance company which further reduced our net income for the first three months of 2005.

The annualized return on average assets and the annualized return on average equity are presented in the table below:

The annualized returns on average tangible assets and average tangible equity exclude the effects of intangible assets and related amortization expenses.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which are two of the largest components contributing to our net income. The primary concerns in managing net interest income are the mix and the repricing of rate-sensitive assets and liabilities. While the current interest rate environment has been unfavorable for net interest income, several factors have lessened the impact on the Company of the interest rate environment, including increases in loans, risk-based loan pricing, and a shift from time deposits to less costly transaction deposits.

Net interest income for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, was $19,318 and $12,450, respectively. On a tax equivalent basis, net interest margin for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, declined to 3.92% from 4.09% for the comparable period in 2004. The decline in our margin is primarily due to the acquisitions of Renasant Bancshares and Heritage, both of which had lower net margins than the Company.

Interest income grew 66.60% to $29,295 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 from $17,584 for the same period in 2004. The growth in interest income was driven by volume, as the average balance in interest earning assets for March 31, 2005 increased $740,610 as compared to the same period in 2004, while the tax equivalent yield on earning assets increased 22 basis points to 5.89%. The increase in the average balance of earning assets was primarily due to the acquisitions of Renasant Bancshares and Heritage. These acquisitions contributed interest income of $3,165 and $6,772, respectively, for the first three months of 2005.

11

Table of Contents

Interest expense increased $4,843 to $9,977 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to $5,134 for the same period in 2004. Interest expense increased as the average balance of interest bearing liabilities increased as a result of the Renasant Bancshares and Heritage acquisitions. The Company issued junior subordinated debentures in connection with these acquisitions and assumed Heritage’s outstanding junior subordinated debentures. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 2.18% for the first three months in 2005 from 1.85% for the same period in 2004.

See Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion and analysis of the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale portfolio and recognition of related income.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses charged to operating expense is an amount which, in the judgment of management, is necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level that is adequate to meet the inherent risks of losses on our current portfolio of loans. The appropriate level of the allowance is based on a quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio which includes consideration of such factors as the risk rating of individual credits, the size and diversity of the portfolio, economic conditions, prior loss experience, and the results of periodic credit reviews by internal loan review and regulators.

The provision for loan losses was $597 and $505 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Accruing loans past due 90 days or more as a percentage of total loans were .19% and .44% at March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, while nonaccrual loans as a percentage of total loans were .24% and .61% for the same periods, respectively. Nonaccrual loans at March 31, 2005, were $3,807, down $1,606 as compared to the balance at March 31, 2004. As disclosed in previous filings, one large credit relationship had previously represented over one-half of our nonaccrual loans. In the first quarter of 2005, we foreclosed on the collateral securing this relationship. As a result, the nonaccrual balance was reduced $4,129 as we bring to final resolution this one problem credit relationship. The $4,908 increase in other real estate owned and repossessions was primarily a result of the foreclosure. The acquisition of Heritage increased the March 31, 2005 nonaccrual loan balance by $2,392.

For the first three months of 2005, net charge-offs were $1,186, or 0.31% annualized as a percentage of average loans. Net charge-offs for the same period in 2004 were $463, or 0.21% annualized as a percentage of average loans. The foreclosure on the collateral securing the one credit relationship, as discussed in more detail in the preceding paragraph, resulted in a partial charge-off of $605, or .16% of average loans, during the first quarter of 2005 with an additional $296 expected to be charged-off in the second quarter of 2005. All amounts charged-off related to this one credit relationship had been fully reserved in the allowance for loan losses.

There have been no material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques as compared to prior periods that have impacted the determination of the current period allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 1.14% at the March 31, 2005 as compared to 1.26% at December 31, 2004. The reduction of the allowance for loan losses was caused by our improved credit quality and growth in the loan portfolio. Statement of Position 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer, (“SOP 03-3”), issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) prohibits the carryover of an allowance for loan loss for loans acquired in which acquirer concludes that the acquirer will not collect the contractual payments. As such, we reduced the balance of $18,839 of Heritage loans acquired by a specific credit reserve of $5,742 from the allowance for loan losses. These loans are now carried at a balance which we believe, based on the facts and circumstances surrounding each respective loan at the date of acquisition, represent their future cash flows. We continually monitor these loans as part of our normal credit review and monitoring procedures for changes in the estimated future cash flows.

Table of Contents

The tables below present information and ratios regarding loans, net charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses and nonperforming loans.

In determining the amount of provision to charge to operations, management considers the risk rating of individual credits, the size and diversity of the loan portfolio, current trends in net charge-offs, trends in non-performing loans, trends in past due loans and current economic conditions in the markets in which we operate.

The following table quantifies the amount of the specific reserves component of the allowance for loan losses and the amount of the allowance determined by applying allowance factors to graded loans as of March 31, 2005, and December 31, 2004:

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $9,903 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 compared to $8,171 for the same period in 2004, an increase of 21.20%. For the three month period ended March 31, 2005, Renasant Bancshares and Heritage contributed $169 and $1,450, respectively, to noninterest income.

Service charges on deposits were $3,874 for the first three months of 2005, an increase of $174, or 4.70%, over $3,700 for the three month period ended March 31, 2004. Service charges represent the largest component of noninterest income. Overdraft fees were $3,208 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, an increase of $230, or 7.75%, compared to the same period in 2003. This increase is also attributed to non-public transaction deposit growth. The fee charged for insufficient funds remained the same throughout 2003 and 2004.

Fees and commissions were $2,505 and $1,671 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. For the three month period ended March 31, 2005, mortgage loan fees (application and origination fees) were $881 compared to $374, respectively, for the same period of 2004. This increase occurred because of the acquisition of Heritage’s mortgage loan business.

The Financial Services division of the Company focuses on providing specialized products and services to our customers. Specialized products include fixed and variable annuities, mutual funds, and stocks offered through a third party provider. Fixed annuities consist of a line of twelve products. We use six insurance carriers, all of which have an A. M. Best rating of an “A” or better. Mutual funds offered by the Company originate primarily from five fund families. Revenues generated from the sale of these products totaled $249 for the first three months of 2005 as compared to $198 for the same period in 2004. Revenues from these products are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the account line “Fees and commissions.”

Our emphasis on specialized products and services is designed to better serve the needs of our clients. The trust department operates on a custodial basis which includes administration of benefit plans, accounting and money management for trust accounts. The trust department of the Company manages a number of trust accounts inclusive of personal and corporate benefit accounts, self-directed IRA’s, and custodial accounts. Fees for managing these accounts are generated based on the contractual terms of the accounts. Trust revenue for the first three months of 2005 was $625 as compared to $464 for the same period of 2004. The market value of assets under management as of March 31, 2005 was $423,028 an increase of approximately 5.92% from the prior year.

Gains from sales of mortgage loans increased to $693 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to $128 for the same period in 2004. The increase in gains from sales of mortgage loans is due to increase in mortgage loan volumes attributable to Heritage’s mortgage loan business.

Revenues from merchant discounts decreased $354 from $356 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2005. In the second quarter of 2004, we sold our interest in and rights to future revenue on credit card merchant agreements involving point of sale based credit card, debit card and other card-based transaction processing services, electronic payment and settlement services to Nova Information Systems, Inc. (“Nova”). As such, we will no longer continue to receive merchant discount revenue. We will receive referral fees from Nova, although such fees will likely be significantly less than our merchant discount revenue.

Other noninterest income includes contingency income related to our insurance subsidiary, which was $308 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, a decrease of $57 from $365 for the same period of 2004. Contingency income is based on both the premium volume with each individual insurance company and the amount of claims paid from each of those companies. Income fluctuates if the claims experience changes from year to year. Also included in other noninterest income is $264, representing our share of proceeds from the sale of the Pulse network to Discover.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $20,963 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, compared to $13,686 for the same period in 2004, an increase of $7,277. The operations of Renasant Bancshares and Heritage increased noninterest expenses by $6,265, including $399 of merger related expenses.

Salaries and employee benefits for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, were $11,459, or $3,866 greater than the same period last year. The acquisition of Renasant Bancshares and Heritage increased salaries and employee benefits by $3,253 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005. The balance of the increase in salaries and employee benefits is due to duplicate staff at our headquarters and in our Alabama operations needed to facilitate the consolidation of back office functions related to the merger, strategic hiring of commercial lending and wealth management personnel in our new markets and increases in health care and pension costs. The duplicate positions to facilitate the back office consolidation were eliminated early in the second quarter of 2005.

Data processing costs for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, were $1,044, a decrease of $119 compared to the same period last year. The decrease resulted from continued efficiencies in our back office processing. Net occupancy expense and equipment expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, increased $760 and $279, respectively, from $855 and $711, respectively, over the comparable period for the prior year, primarily due to additional depreciation and expenses related to Renasant Bancshares and Heritage and our de novo branches.

Amortization of intangible assets increased $463 to $586 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to $123 for the same period in 2004. The increase is due to the amortization of the finite-lived intangible assets recorded as a result of the Renasant Bancshares and Heritage acquisitions. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range between 5-10 years.

In February 2005, we changed the name of our subsidiary bank, The Peoples Bank & Trust Company, to “Renasant Bank”, and our insurance agency, “The Peoples Insurance Agency”, to Renasant Insurance, Inc. As a result of the name change, we incurred approximately $262 in marketing, legal and printing costs during the first three months of 2005.

Noninterest expense as a percentage of average assets was 3.58% for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, and 3.80% for the comparable period in 2004. We anticipate a continued positive impact on the future through our investments in personnel, technology, and programs such as High Performance Checking. The net overhead ratio was 1.90% and 1.55% for the first three months of 2005 and 2004, respectively. The net overhead ratio is defined as noninterest expense less noninterest income, expressed as a percent of average assets. Our efficiency ratio increased to 70.65% for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, compared to 63.99% for the same period of 2004. The net overhead and efficiency ratios were negatively impacted by the merger costs and costs associated with the name change. We anticipate improvements in these ratios as we improve our operating efficiencies and take advantage of the income opportunities provided in our new markets of Tennessee and Alabama.

Income tax expense was $2,202 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, (with an effective tax rate of 28.74%) compared to $1,783 (with an effective tax rate of 27.73%) for the same period in 2004. We continue to seek investing opportunities in assets whose earnings are given favorable tax treatment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity management is the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of customers who may be either depositors wishing to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs.

Core deposits are a major source of funds used to meet cash flow needs. Maintaining the ability to acquire these funds as needed in a variety of markets is the key to assuring liquidity. When evaluating the movement of these funds, even during large interest rate changes, it is apparent that we continue to attract deposits that can be used to meet cash flow needs. Management continues to monitor the liquidity and potentially volatile liabilities ratios to ensure compliance with Asset-Liability Committee targets.

Our security portfolio is another alternative for meeting liquidity needs. These assets have readily available markets that offer conversions to cash as needed. Within the next twelve months the securities available for sale portfolio is forecasted to generate cash flow equal to 8.91% of the carrying value of the total securities portfolio. Other sources available for meeting liquidity needs include federal funds purchased and advances from the FHLB. Interest is charged at the market federal funds rate on federal funds purchased and FHLB advances. Federal funds purchased at March 31, 2005 totaled $10,066. Funds obtained from the FHLB are used primarily to match-fund real estate loans in order to minimize interest rate risk, and may be used to meet day to day liquidity needs. The total amount of remaining credit available to us from the FHLB was $146,167. As of March 31, 2005, our outstanding balance with the FHLB was $243,044. We also maintain lines of credits with other commercial banks totaling $35,000. These are unsecured lines of credit maturing at various times within the next twelve months. At March 31, 2005, there were no amounts outstanding under these lines of credits.

For the three months ended March 31, 2005, our total cost of funds, including noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts, was 1.94%, up from 1.62% for the same period in 2004. Noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts made up approximately 11.01% of our average total deposits and borrowed funds at March 31, 2005 as compared to 12.93% at March 31, 2004. Interest bearing transaction accounts, money market accounts and savings accounts made up approximately 31.36% of our funds and had an average cost of 0.89%. Another significant source of funds was time deposits, making up 39.79% of the total deposits and borrowed funds with an average cost of 2.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2005, compared to 40.37% of the total with an average cost of 2.40% for the same period in 2004. FHLB advances, typically used for clients who prefer longer-term fixed rate loans, made up approximately 12.01% of our average total deposits and borrowed funds with an average cost of 2.86%.

Our strategy in choosing funds is focused on attempting to mitigate interest rate risk, and thus we utilize funding sources that are commensurate with the interest rate risk associated with the assets. Accordingly, management targets growth of non-interest bearing deposits. While we do not control the types of deposit instruments our clients choose, we do influence those choices with the rates we offer and with the deposit specials we offer. For example, public funds may be readily obtained based on our aggressiveness in pricing. We constantly monitor our funds position and evaluate the effect various funding sources have on our financial position.

Cash and cash equivalents were $68,621 at March 31, 2005, compared to $56,025 at December 31, 2004. Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2005, was $41,675, compared to $31,936 for the same period of 2004. The primary contribution to this increase was due to a net increase in loans of $56,600 funded by the proceeds from the sale and maturity of our investment portfolio of $43,107.

Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2005, was $38,182, compared to $48,979 for the same period of 2004. In January 2005, the Company issued $31,959 in junior subordinated debentures for the primary purpose of funding for the cash portion of the Heritage acquisition. The funds provided by the issuance of the subordinated debentures represents the majority of the decrease in financing activities borrowings.

The Company acquired Renasant Bancshares on July 1, 2004. The aggregate transaction value, including deal charges and the dilutive impact of Renasant Bancshares’ options and warrants assumed by the Company, was approximately $60,290. In accordance with the merger agreement, the Company delivered to Renasant Bancshares shareholders either cash, Company common stock, or a combination of cash and Company common stock, in exchange for the shares of Renasant Bancshares common stock owned by a shareholder. The cash portion of the merger consideration was $26,128, and was funded with proceeds from issuance of the junior subordinated debentures under PHC Statutory Trust I and a special dividend from Renasant Bank. The Company issued 802,094 shares of its common stock in the transaction, totaling approximately $27,720. These shares were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Company completed the acquisition of Heritage on January 1, 2005. The aggregate transaction value, including deal charges and the dilutive impact of Heritage’s options assumed by the Company, was approximately $75,658. In accordance with the merger agreement, the Company delivered to Heritage shareholders either cash, Company common stock, or a combination of cash and Company common stock, in exchange for the shares of Heritage common stock owned by a shareholder. The cash portion of the merger consideration was $23,055, and was funded with proceeds from issuance of $31,959 in junior subordinated debentures to PHC Statutory Trust II. The Company issued 1,369,589 shares of its common stock in the transaction, totaling approximately $45,333. These shares were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

We are 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 our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require us to maintain minimum balances and ratios. All banks are required to have core capital (Tier I) of at least 4% of risk-weighted assets, 4% of average assets, and total capital of 8% of risk-weighted assets (as such ratios are defined in Federal regulations). As of March 31, 2005, we met all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject. As of March 31, 2005, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized us as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, we must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios of 10%, 6%, and 5%, respectively. In the opinion of management, there are no conditions or events since the last notification that have changed our rating as well capitalized.

The following table includes our capital ratios and the capital ratios of our banking subsidiary as of March 31, 2005:

Management recognizes the importance of maintaining a strong capital base. As the above ratios indicate, we exceed the requirements for a well capitalized bank. The Company’s liquidity and capital resources are substantially dependent on the ability of our Bank to transfer funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and advances.

Book value per share was $22.17 and $19.79 at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of the Company’s customers. Standby letters of credit commit the Company to make payments on behalf of customers when certain specified future events occur.

Both arrangements have credit risk essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers and are subject to the Company’s normal credit policies. Collateral (e.g., securities, receivables, inventory, and equipment) is obtained based on management’s credit assessment of the customer.

The Company’s unfunded loan commitments (unfunded loans and unused lines of credit) and standby letters of credit outstanding at March 31, 2005 were approximately $251,112 and $15,123 respectively, compared to $219,087 and $15,468, respectively, at December 31, 2004.

Market risk resulting from interest rate changes on particular off-balance sheet financial instruments may be offset by other on- or off-balance sheet transactions. Interest rate sensitivity is monitored by the Company for determining the net effect of potential changes in interest rates on the market value of both on- or off-balance sheet financial instruments.
