EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Summary of 2012 Second Quarter Results

For the quarter, we reported net income of $152.7 million, or $0.17 per common share, compared with $153.3 million, or $0.17 per common share, in the prior quarter (see Table 1).

Fully-taxable equivalent net interest income was $434.7 million for the quarter, up $13.6 million, or 3%, from the prior quarter. The increase reflected the benefit of a $1.3 billion, or 3% (10% annualized), increase in average earning assets, and a 2 basis point increase in the fully-taxable equivalent net interest margin to 3.42% from 3.40%. The 2 basis point increase in the net interest margin reflected the benefits from the 5 basis point reduction in the cost of total interest bearing liabilities, as well as $0.8 billion, or 7%, growth in average noninterest bearing deposits. However, there was a 3 basis point negative impact from the mix and yield of earning assets and other items. The acquisition of Fidelity Bank at the end of the prior quarter had a positive 2 basis point impact on the net interest margin, and the recent redemption of two trust preferred securities had a 1 basis point positive impact.

The provision for credit losses increased $2.1 million, or 6%, from the prior quarter. The provision for credit losses in the current quarter was $47.7 million lower than NCOs, reflecting continued improvement in credit quality.

Noninterest income decreased $31.5 million, or 11%. This included a $22.6 million decrease in gain on sale of loans as the prior quarter included a $23.0 million gain associated with that quarter’s automobile loan securitization. In addition, other income decreased $9.2 million as the prior quarter included an $11.4 million bargain purchase gain associated with the FDIC-assisted acquisition of Dearborn, Michigan-based Fidelity Bank. Mortgage banking income declined $8.1 million as the benefit of the net mortgage servicing rights decreased by $6.8 million. This was partially offset by an increase in service charges on deposit accounts and capital market fees, reflecting the results of our OCR initiative.

Noninterest expense decreased $18.4 million, or 4%. This reflected a $19.9 million reduction in other expense as the prior quarter included a $23.5 million addition to litigation reserves. Deposit and other insurance expense decreased $5.0 million, and net occupancy declined $3.6 million. The positive impacts from these reductions were partially offset by a $6.1 million increase in outside data processing and other services, a $4.6 million seasonal increase in marketing, and a $4.2 million increase in professional services. Of the total noninterest expense, $6.8 million related to the prior quarter’s FDIC-assisted acquisition of Fidelity Bank, of which approximately 40% was one-time in nature and mainly impacted outside data processing and other services and professional services. Of note, noninterest expense included four unrelated items that we believe were one-time in nature that, in total, reduced expenses $6.4 million.

The period end ACL as a percentage of total loans and leases decreased to 2.28%, from 2.37%. The ACL as a percentage of period end NALs decreased to 192% from 206%, as NALs increased $6.6 million, or 1%, to $474.2 million, or 1.19% of total loans and leases. Total NCOs for the 2012 second quarter were $84.2 million, or an annualized 0.82% of average total loans and leases, compared to $83.0 million, or an annualized 0.85%, in the prior quarter.

Our Tier 1 common risk-based capital ratio at June 30, 2012, was 10.08%, down from 10.15% at March 31, 2012, and our tangible common equity ratio increased to 8.41% from 8.33% over this same period. The regulatory Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio at June 30, 2012 was 11.93%, down from 12.22%, at March 31, 2012. This decline reflected an increase in risk-weighted assets due to balance sheet and unfunded commitment growth, as well as the capital actions taken throughout the quarter.

Business Overview

General

Our general business objectives are: (1) grow net interest income and fee income, (2) increase cross-sell and share-of-wallet across all business segments, (3) improve efficiency ratio, (4) continue to strengthen risk management, including sustained improvement in credit metrics, and (5) maintain strong capital and liquidity positions.

The second quarter results clearly showed the benefit of 11.6% annualized growth in consumer checking account households and 11.9% annualized growth in commercial relationships, with both electronic banking and service charges on deposits up over 9%. Not only are we gaining customers, we are selling deeper with 76.0% of consumer checking account households and 32.6% commercial relationships now with 4 or more products or services. A portion of our strategic investments remains in the early stages, such as our in-store strategy. In contrast, others have matured and are adding meaningfully to the bottom line, like our customer focused capital markets activities, which posted a record quarter resulting in 35% linked quarter and 58% year-over-year revenue growth.

Economy

We continue to see positive trends within our Midwest footprint. Relative to the broader United States, parts of the Midwest continue to experience lower levels of unemployment, strength in manufacturing, and more stable home prices.

Generally, our footprint large metropolitan statistical areas (MSA) unemployment rates were below the national average as of April 2012. In addition, our footprint states have continued to be strong export states. For the three-month average ending April 2012, exports from our footprint states were 3.2% greater than the same period last year. By comparison, overall U.S. exports were 2.9% higher. Office vacancy rates in our footprint MSAs were above the national vacancy rate in the prior quarter, but have remained on declining trends, with the exception of Cincinnati.

While our footprint has clearly benefited from certain aspects of this recovery, the United States and global economies continue to experience elevated levels of volatility and uncertainty.

Legislative and Regulatory

Regulatory reforms continue to be adopted which impose additional restrictions on current business practices. A recent action affecting us was the Federal Reserve BASEL III proposal and the capital plans rule.

BASEL III and the Dodd-Frank Act – In June 2012, the FRB, OCC, and FDIC (collectively, the Agencies) each issued Notices of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRs) that would revise and replace the Agencies’ current capital rules to align with the BASEL III capital standards and meet certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act. Certain requirements of the proposed NPRs would establish more restrictive capital definitions, higher risk-weightings for certain asset classes, capital buffers and higher minimum capital ratios. The proposed NPRs are in a comment period through September 7, 2012 and subject to further modification by the Agencies. We are currently evaluating the impact of the proposed NPRs on our regulatory capital ratios and estimate a reduction of approximately 150 basis points to our BASEL I Tier I Common risk-based capital ratio based on our existing balance sheet composition. We anticipate that our capital ratios, on a BASEL III basis, would continue to exceed the well-capitalized minimum requirements. For additional discussion, please see BASEL III and the Dodd-Frank Act section within the Capital section.

Capital Plans Rule / Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) – In November 2011, the Federal Reserve issued its final rule requiring top-tier U.S. bank holding companies with total consolidated assets of $50 billion or more, including us, to submit to an annual capital planning review process. The capital planning review process includes reviews of our internal capital adequacy assessment process and our plans to make capital distributions, such as dividend payments or stock repurchases, as well as a supervisory stress test designed to test our capital adequacy.

During 2011, we participated in the Federal Reserve’s Capital Plan Review (CapPR) process and made our capital plan submission in January 2012. On March 14, 2012, we announced that the Federal Reserve had completed its review of our capital plan submission and did not object to our proposed capital actions. During 2012, we will transition into the Federal Reserve’s more rigorous CCAR or equivalent process, which had previously been required of only the largest 19 bank holding companies.

The Federal Reserve’s objective with CCAR is to ensure that large, systemically important banking institutions have forward-looking, risk tailored capital planning processes that provide reasonable assurance that they will have sufficient capital to remain going concerns in times of economic and financial distress. We are expected to have two year pro forma plans that illustrate that we will have sufficient capital to operate as usual, under adverse conditions, while still meeting certain regulatory capital thresholds.

Annually, the Federal Reserve will issue detailed instructions outlining the information they are requiring from us, as well as the required timeframes. The instructions will include the Federal Reserve’s adverse stress scenario that is required to be used in this exercise and is designed to represent economic conditions that could occur in a prolonged global economic recession. For additional discussion, please see Updates to Risk Factors within the Additional Disclosures section.

Expectations

For the remainder of 2012, average net interest income is expected to show modest improvement from the second quarter level as we anticipate an increase in total loans, excluding the impacts of any future loan securitizations. Those benefits to net interest income are expected to be mostly offset, however, by downward NIM pressure due to the anticipated competitive pressures on loan pricing, as well as lower rate securities through reinvestment, and declining positive impacts from deposit repricing. The C&I portfolio is expected to continue to show meaningful growth. Our sales pipeline remains robust with much of this reflecting the positive impact from strategic initiatives to expand our commercial lending expertise into areas such as specialty banking, asset based lending, and equipment financing. It also reflects our long-standing, continued support of middle market and small business lending. Automobile loan balances are expected to grow from period-end balances. Residential mortgages and home equity loans are expected to be relatively flat as we continue to evaluate the impact of the proposed capital rules recently released by our regulators. CRE loans likely will experience modest levels of declines from current levels.

Table of Contents

Excluding potential future automobile loan securitizations, we anticipate the increase in total loans will modestly outpace growth in total deposits. This reflects our heightened focus on our overall cost of funding and the continued shift towards low- and no-cost demand deposits and money market deposit accounts.

Noninterest income is expected to show a modest increase from the 2012 second quarter level after excluding the impacts of any future automobile loan securitization gains and any net MSR impact. This growth is expected to reflect primarily the continued growth in new customers and increased contribution from key fee income activities including capital markets, treasury management services, and brokerage, as well as the continued positive impact of our cross-sell and product penetration initiatives throughout the company.

Noninterest expense continued to run at levels above our long-term expectations relative to revenue. For the full year, we continue to anticipate positive operating leverage and modest improvement in our expense efficiency ratio. This will likely reflect the benefit of revenue growth as we expect expenses could increase slightly. While we will continue our focus on improving expense efficiencies throughout the company, additional regulatory costs and expenses associated with strategic actions, including the planned opening of over 30 in-store branches, may offset some of the improvements. Credit quality is expected to experience continued improvement. The level of provision for credit losses in the first half of the year was at the low end of our long-term expectation, and we expect some quarterly volatility given the absolute low level of provision and the uncertain and uneven nature of the economic recovery.

We anticipate the effective tax rate for 2012 to approximate 24% to 26%, which includes permanent tax benefits primarily related to tax-exempt income, tax-advantaged investments, and general business credits.

For all periods presented, the impact of the preferred stock issued in 2008 and the warrants issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury in 2008 related to Huntington’s participation in the voluntary Capital Purchase Program was excluded from the diluted share calculation because the result was more than basic earnings per common share (anti-dilutive) for the periods. The preferred stock and warrants were repurchased in December 2010 and January 2011, respectively.

Significant Items

Definition of Significant Items

From time-to-time, revenue, expenses, or taxes, are impacted by items judged by us to be outside of ordinary banking activities and / or by items that, while they may be associated with ordinary banking activities, are so unusually large that their outsized impact is believed by us at that time to be infrequent or short-term in nature. We refer to such items as Significant Items. Most often, these Significant Items result from factors originating outside the company; e.g., regulatory actions / assessments, windfall gains, changes in accounting principles, one-time tax assessments / refunds, litigation actions, etc. In other cases, they may result from our decisions associated with significant corporate actions outside of the ordinary course of business; e.g., merger / restructuring charges, recapitalization actions, goodwill impairment, etc.

Even though certain revenue and expense items are naturally subject to more volatility than others due to changes in market and economic environment conditions, as a general rule volatility alone does not define a Significant Item. For example, changes in the provision for credit losses, gains / losses from investment activities, asset valuation writedowns, etc., reflect ordinary banking activities and are, therefore, typically excluded from consideration as a Significant Item.

We believe the disclosure of Significant Items provides a better understanding of our performance and trends to ascertain which of such items, if any, to include or exclude from an analysis of our performance; i.e., within the context of determining how that performance differed from expectations, as well as how, if at all, to adjust estimates of future performance accordingly. To this end, we adopted a practice of listing Significant Items in our external disclosure documents; e.g., earnings press releases, investor presentations, Forms 10-Q and 10-K.

Significant Items for any particular period are not intended to be a complete list of items that may materially impact current or future period performance.

Significant Items Influencing Financial Performance Comparisons

There were not any Significant Items for the current quarter. Earnings comparisons were impacted by the Significant Items summarized below.

 

1. Litigation Reserve. $23.5 million and $17.0 million of additions to litigation reserves were recorded as other noninterest expense in the first quarter of 2012 and 2011, respectively. This resulted in a negative impact of $0.02 per common share in 2012 and $0.01 per common share in 2011 for both quarterly and year-to-date basis.
2. Bargain Purchase Gain. During the 2012 first quarter, an $11.4 million bargain purchase gain associated with the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition was recorded in noninterest income. This resulted in a positive impact of $0.01 per common share for both the quarterly and year-to-date basis.

2012 Second Quarter versus 2011 Second Quarter

Fully-taxable equivalent net interest income increased $27.5 million, or 7%, from the year-ago quarter. This reflected a $3.0 billion, or 6%, increase in average total earning assets and a 2 basis point increase in the FTE net interest margin. The increase in average earning assets reflected:

 

   

$2.6 billion, or 7%, increase in average total loans and leases.

 

   

$0.4 billion, or 251%, increase in average held-to-maturity securities.

 

   

$0.2 billion, 127%, increase in average loans held for sale.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$0.2 billion, or 2%, decrease in average total available-for-sale and other securities.

The 2 basis point increase in the FTE net interest margin reflected the 28 basis point positive impact from the reduction in the cost of average total interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a 25 basis point negative impact from lower earning asset yields and a shift to lower-yield, higher quality credits and other items.

The $2.6 billion, or 7%, increase in average total loans and leases primarily reflected:

 

   

$2.7 billion, or 20%, growth in the average C&I portfolio primarily reflecting a combination of factors, including the benefits from our strategic initiatives focusing on equipment finance and large corporate. In addition, we continued to see strong growth in more traditional middle-market and business banking loans. This growth was evident despite line utilization rates that remained well below historical norms.

 

   

$0.7 billion, or 15%, increase in average residential mortgages reflecting a purposeful decision to sell a lower percentage of mortgages during the second half of 2011.

 

   

$0.4 billion, or 6%, increase in average home equity loans with over 70% of new originations in 2012 in a first lien position.

 

18


Table of Contents

Partially offset by:

 

   

$1.0 billion, or 16%, decrease in the average automobile portfolio. This reflected the impact of our continued program of the securitization and sale of such loans. Specifically, $1.0 billion in the 2011 third quarter and $1.3 billion in the 2012 first quarter. While not impacting averages, $1.3 billion of automobile loans was reclassified to loans held for sale at the end of the current quarter in preparation for an expected securitization in the second half of 2012.

The $3.6 billion, or 9%, increase in average total deposits from the year-ago quarter reflected:

 

   

$3.7 billion, or 9%, growth in average total core deposits. The drivers of this change were a $4.6 billion, or 35%, growth in average total demand deposits and more modest growth in both money market deposits and savings and other domestic deposits, partially offset by $1.5 billion, or 18%, decline in average core certificates of deposit.

2012 Second Quarter versus 2012 First Quarter

Fully-taxable equivalent net interest income increased $13.6 million, or 3%, from the 2012 first quarter. This reflected the combined positive impacts of a $1.3 billion, or 3%, increase in average earning assets and a 2 basis point increase in the FTE net interest margin. The increase in average earnings assets reflected a $2.0 billion, or 5%, increase in average total loans and leases, partially offset by a $0.8 billion decline in average loans held for sale, reflecting last quarter’s $1.3 billion automobile loan securitization and sale. The primary item impacting the increase in the FTE net interest margin was:

 

   

5 basis point positive impact from the reduction in the cost of average total interest bearing liabilities, as well as 7% growth in average noninterest bearing deposits.

Partially offset by:

 

   

3 basis point negative impact from lower earning asset yields and a shift to lower-yield, higher quality credits and other items.

The acquisition of Fidelity Bank at the end of the prior quarter had a 2 basis point positive impact to the FTE net interest margin, and the current quarter’s redemption of two issuances of trust preferred securities had a 1 basis point positive impact.

The $2.0 billion, or 5%, increase in average total loans and leases from the 2012 first quarter reflected:

 

   

$1.3 billion, or 9%, growth in average total C&I loans. This reflected the continued elevated level of activity from multiple business lines including middle market and equipment finance, as well as the full quarter impact of the Fidelity Bank related loans.

 

   

$0.4 billion, or 9%, growth in average automobile loans. Automobile loan originations were more than $1.1 billion. At the end of the quarter, $1.3 billion of automobile loans were reclassified to loans held for sale in preparation of a securitization in the second half of 2012.

 

   

$0.2 billion, or 4%, growth in average CRE loans. This reflected the full quarter impact of the Fidelity Bank related loans partially offset by continued runoff of the noncore portfolio.

The $1.4 billion, or 3%, increase in average total deposits from the 2012 first quarter reflected:

 

   

$1.1 billion, or 6%, increase in average total demand deposits.

 

   

$0.2 billion, or 3%, increase in average savings and other domestic time deposits.

 

   

$0.1 billion, or 2%, increase in core certificates of deposit.

The acquisition of Fidelity Bank at the end of the prior quarter contributed $0.5 billion to average total loans and $0.7 billion to average total deposits in the current quarter.

2012 First Six Months versus 2011 First Six Months

Fully-taxable equivalent net interest income for the first six-month period of 2012 increased $40.4 million, or 5%, from the comparable year-ago period. This reflected the benefit of a 5% increase in average total earning assets. The fully-taxable equivalent net interest margin was unchanged at 3.41%. The increase in average earning assets reflected a combination of factors including:

 

   

$1.8 billion, or 5%, increase in average total loans and leases.

 

   

$0.5 billion, or 179%, increase in average loans held for sale.

 

   

$0.5 billion, or 615%, increase in average held-to-maturity securities.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$0.6 billion, or 6%, decline in average total available-for-sale and other securities.

The following table details the change in our reported loans and deposits:

The $1.8 billion, or 5%, increase in average total loans and leases primarily reflected:

 

   

$2.2 billion, or 17%, increase in the average C&I portfolio, primarily reflecting a combination of factors, including the benefits from our strategic initiatives focusing on equipment finance and large corporate. In addition, we continued to see strong growth in more traditional middle-market and business banking loans. This growth was evident despite line utilization rates that remained well below historical norms.

 

   

$0.7 billion, or 15%, increase in the average residential mortgage portfolio, primarily reflecting a purposeful decision to sell a lower percentage of mortgages in the secondary market during the second half of 2011.

 

   

$0.5 billion, or 6%, increase in the average home equity portfolio with over 70% of new originations in 2012 in a first-lien position.

Table of Contents

Partially offset by:

 

   

$1.0 billion, or 18%, decline in the average automobile portfolio. This reflected the impact of our continued program of the securitization and sale of such loans. Specifically, $1.0 billion in the 2011 third quarter and $1.3 billion in the 2012 first quarter.

 

   

$0.4 billion, or 6%, decline in the average CRE portfolio, primarily reflecting the continued execution of our plan to reduce the total CRE exposure, primarily in the noncore CRE portfolio. Declines were partially offset by additions to the core CRE portfolio associated with the FDIC-assisted acquisition of Fidelity Bank.

The $2.7 billion, or 7%, increase in average total deposits reflected:

 

   

$4.4 billion, or 34%, increase in demand deposits reflecting an improved deposit mix as a result of growing total number of consumer checking account households as well as our treasury management and OCR focus on growing commercial demand deposits.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$1.7 billion, or 20%, decline in core certificates of deposits.

Provision for Credit Losses

(This section should be read in conjunction with the Credit Risk section.)

The provision for credit losses is the expense necessary to maintain the ALLL and the AULC at levels appropriate to absorb our estimate of inherent credit losses in the loan and lease portfolio and the portfolio of unfunded loan commitments and letters-of-credit.

The provision for credit losses for the 2012 second quarter was $36.5 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 6%, from the prior quarter, and $0.7 million, or 2%, from the year-ago quarter. The current quarter’s provision for credit losses was $47.7 million less than total NCOs and the provision for credit losses for the first six-month period of 2012 was $96.3 million less than total NCOs. The level of provision for credit losses in the first half of 2012 was at the lower end of our long-term expectation. Some quarter-to-quarter volatility is expected given the absolute low level of the provision for credit losses and the uncertain and uneven nature of the economic recovery. (See Credit Quality discussion).

Noninterest Income

The following table reflects noninterest income for each of the past five quarters:

2012 Second Quarter versus 2011 Second Quarter

The $1.9 million, or 1%, decrease in total noninterest income from the year-ago quarter reflected:

 

   

$11.2 million, or 35%, decline in electronic banking income related to implementing the lower debit card interchange fee structure mandated in the Durbin Amendment of the Dodd-Frank Act.

 

   

$6.4 million, or 19%, decrease in other income, as the prior year-ago quarter reflected an increased value in a loan servicing asset.

 

   

$4.4 million, or 61%, decline in automobile operating lease income, reflecting the impact of a declining portfolio as a result of having exited that business in 2008.

 

   

$3.6 million, or 21%, decline in bank owned life insurance income.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$14.5 million, or 61%, increase in mortgage banking income. This primarily reflected an $18.7 million increase in origination and secondary marketing income. Also impacting the year-over-year comparison was a $0.8 million net MSR hedging gain in the current quarter compared to a net MSR hedging gain of $4.7 million in the year-ago quarter.

 

   

$5.3 million, or 9%, increase in service charges on deposits, primarily reflecting continued strong customer growth.

 

   

$4.9 million, or 58%, increase in capital markets fees reflecting strong customer demand for interest rate protection and other risk management products.

Table of Contents

2012 Second Quarter versus 2012 First Quarter

The $31.5 million, or 11%, decrease in total noninterest income from the prior quarter reflected:

 

   

$22.6 million, or 85%, decline in gain on sale of loans, as the previous quarter included a $23.0 million automobile loan securitization gain.

 

   

$9.2 million, or 25%, decline in other income, reflecting the prior quarter’s $11.4 million bargain purchase gain associated with the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition.

 

   

$8.1 million, or 17%, decline in mortgage banking income. This primarily reflected a $6.8 million decline in net MSR hedging gains, and a $1.1 million decline in origination and secondary marketing income.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$5.7 million, or 9%, increase in service charges on deposit accounts, reflecting continued growth in consumer households and business relationships.

 

   

$3.5 million, or 35%, increase in capital market fees, primarily reflecting strong customer demand for interest rate protection and other risk management products.

2012 First Six Months versus 2011 First Six Months

Noninterest income for the first six-month period of 2012 increased $46.4 million, or 9%, from the comparable year-ago period.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes in the 2012 second quarter was $49.3 million. This compared with a provision for income taxes of $52.2 million in the 2012 first quarter and $49.0 million in the 2011 second quarter. All three quarters included the benefits from tax-exempt income, tax-advantaged investments, and general business credits. At June 30, 2012, we had a net deferred tax asset of $232.4 million. Based on both positive and negative evidence and our level of forecasted future taxable income, there was no impairment to the deferred tax asset at June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, there is no disallowed deferred tax asset for regulatory capital purposes compared to $39.1 million at December 31, 2011.

We file income tax returns with the IRS and various state, city, and foreign jurisdictions. Federal income tax audits have been completed for tax years through 2007. We have appealed certain proposed adjustments resulting from the IRS examination of our 2006 and 2007 tax returns. We believe our positions related to such proposed adjustments are correct and supported by applicable statutes, regulations, and judicial authority, and intend to vigorously defend them. In 2011, we entered into discussions with the Appeals Division of the IRS. It is possible the ultimate resolution of the proposed adjustments, if unfavorable, may be material to the results of operations in the period it occurs. Nevertheless, although no assurances can be given, we believe the resolution of these examinations will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position. In the 2011 third quarter, the IRS began its examination of our 2008 and 2009 consolidated federal income tax returns. Various state and other jurisdictions remain open to examination, including Kentucky, Indiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Illinois.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND CAPITAL

Risk awareness, identification and assessment, reporting, and active management are key elements in overall risk management. We manage risk to an aggregate moderate-to-low risk profile through a control framework and by monitoring and responding to identified potential risks. Controls include, among others, effective segregation of duties, access, authorization and reconciliation procedures, as well as staff education and a disciplined assessment process.

We identify primary risks, and the sources of those risks, within each business unit. We utilize Risk and Control Self-Assessments (RCSA) to identify exposure risks. Through this RCSA process, we continually assess the effectiveness of controls associated with the identified risks, regularly monitor risk profiles and material exposure to losses, and identify stress events and scenarios to which we may be exposed. Our chief risk officer is responsible for ensuring that appropriate systems of controls are in place for managing and monitoring risk across the Company. Potential risk concerns are shared with the Risk Management Committee and the board of directors, as appropriate. Our internal audit department performs on-going independent reviews of the risk management process and ensures the adequacy of documentation. The results of these reviews are reported regularly to the audit committee and board of directors.

We believe that our primary risk exposures are credit, market, liquidity, operational, and compliance oriented. More information on risk can be found in the Risk Factors section included in Item 1A of our 2011 Form 10-K and subsequent filings with the SEC. Additionally, the MD&A included in our 2011 Form 10-K should be read in conjunction with this MD&A as this discussion provides only material updates to the 2011 Form 10-K. Our definition, philosophy, and approach to risk management have not materially changed from the discussion presented in the 2011 Form 10-K.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a counterparty is not able to meet the agreed upon terms of the financial obligation. The majority of our credit risk is associated with lending activities, as the acceptance and management of credit risk is central to profitable lending. We also have significant credit risk associated with our available-for-sale and other investment and held-to-maturity securities portfolios (see Note 4 and Note 5 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). We engage with other financial counterparties for a variety of purposes including investing, asset and liability management, mortgage banking, and for trading activities. While there is credit risk associated with derivative activity, we believe this exposure is minimal. The significant change in the economic conditions and the resulting changes in borrower behavior over the past several years resulted in our continuing focus on the identification, monitoring, and managing of our credit risk. In addition to the traditional credit risk mitigation strategies of credit policies and processes, market risk management activities, and portfolio diversification, we use additional quantitative measurement capabilities utilizing external data sources, enhanced use of modeling technology, and internal stress testing processes. Our portfolio management resources demonstrate our commitment to maintaining an aggregate moderate-to-low risk profile. In our efforts to continue to identify risk mitigation techniques, we have focused on product design features, origination policies, and treatment strategies for delinquent or stressed borrowers.

Loan and Lease Credit Exposure Mix

At June 30, 2012, our loans and leases totaled $40.0 billion, representing a $1.0 billion, or 3%, increase compared to $38.9 billion at December 31, 2011, primarily reflecting growth in the C&I portfolio, partially offset by a decline in the automobile portfolio as a result of our securitization program. The C&I loan growth included the impacts related to a continuation of the growth in high quality loans originated over recent quarters and the purchase of a portfolio of high quality municipal equipment leases. The decline in the automobile portfolio reflected the transfer of automobile loans to loans held for sale in the 2012 second quarter related to an automobile securitization planned for second half of 2012 (see Automobile Portfolio discussion).

At June 30, 2012, commercial loans and leases totaled $22.2 billion, and represented 55% of our total credit exposure. Our commercial portfolio is diversified along product type, customer size, and geography within our footprint, and is comprised of the following (see Commercial Credit discussion):

C&I – C&I loans and leases are made to commercial customers for use in normal business operations to finance working capital needs, equipment purchases, or other projects. The majority of these borrowers are customers doing business within our geographic regions. C&I loans and leases are generally underwritten individually and secured with the assets of the company and/or the personal guarantee of the business owners. The financing of owner occupied facilities is considered a C&I loan even though there is improved real estate as collateral. This treatment is a result of the credit decision process, which focuses on cash flow from operations of the business to repay the debt. The operation, sale, rental, or refinancing of the real estate is not considered the primary repayment source for these types of loans. As we look to grow our C&I portfolio, we have further developed our ABL capabilities by adding experienced ABL professionals to take advantage of market opportunities resulting in better leveraging of the manufacturing base in our primary markets. Also, our Equipment Finance area is targeting larger equipment financings in the manufacturing sector in addition to our core products. We also expanded our Large Corporate Banking area with sufficient resources to ensure we appropriately recognize and manage the risks associated with this type of lending.

Table of Contents

CRE – CRE loans consist of loans for income-producing real estate properties, real estate investment trusts, and real estate developers. We mitigate our risk on these loans by requiring collateral values that exceed the loan amount and underwriting the loan with projected cash flow in excess of the debt service requirement. These loans are made to finance properties such as apartment buildings, office and industrial buildings, and retail shopping centers, and are repaid through cash flows related to the operation, sale, or refinance of the property.

Construction CRE – Construction CRE loans are loans to individuals, companies, or developers used for the construction of a commercial or residential property for which repayment will be generated by the sale or permanent financing of the property. Our construction CRE portfolio primarily consists of retail, residential (land, single family, and condominiums), office, and warehouse project types. Generally, these loans are for construction projects that have been presold or preleased, or have secured permanent financing, as well as loans to real estate companies with significant equity invested in each project. These loans are underwritten and managed by a specialized real estate lending group that actively monitors the construction phase and manages the loan disbursements according to the predetermined construction schedule.

Total consumer loans and leases were $17.7 billion at June 30, 2012, and represented 45% of our total loan and lease credit exposure. The consumer portfolio is primarily comprised of automobile, home equity loans and lines-of-credit, and residential mortgages (see Consumer Credit discussion).

Automobile – Automobile loans are primarily comprised of loans made through automotive dealerships and include exposure in selected states outside of our primary banking markets. No state outside of our primary banking markets represented more than 5% of our total automobile portfolio at June 30, 2012. We have successfully implemented a loan securitization strategy to maintain our established portfolio concentration limits.

Home equity – Home equity lending includes both home equity loans and lines-of-credit. This type of lending, which is secured by a first-lien or junior-lien on the borrower’s residence, allows customers to borrow against the equity in their home. Given the current low interest rate environment, many borrowers have utilized the line-of-credit home equity product as the primary source of financing their home versus residential mortgages. As a result, the proportion of the home equity portfolio secured by a first-lien has increased significantly over the past three years, positively impacting the portfolio’s risk profile. The portfolio’s credit risk profile is substantially reduced when we hold a first-lien position. During the first six-month period of 2012, 75% of our home equity portfolio originations were secured by a first-lien. The first-lien position, combined with continued high average FICO scores, significantly reduces the PD associated with these loans. The combination provides a strong base when assessing the expected future performance of this portfolio. Real estate market values at the time of origination directly affect the amount of credit extended and, in the event of default, subsequent changes in these values impact the severity of losses. We actively manage the extension of credit and the amount of credit extended through a combination of criteria including financial position, debt-to-income policies, and LTV policy limits.

Residential mortgage – Residential mortgage loans represent loans to consumers for the purchase or refinance of a residence. These loans are generally financed over a 15-year to 30-year term, and in most cases, are extended to borrowers to finance their primary residence. Generally, our practice is to sell a significant portion of our fixed-rate originations in the secondary market. As such, at June 30, 2012, 51% of our total residential mortgage portfolio were ARMs. These ARMs primarily consist of a fixed-rate of interest for the first 3 to 5 years, and then adjust annually. We are subject to repurchase risk associated with residential mortgage loans sold in the secondary market. An appropriate level of reserve for representations and warranties related to residential mortgage loans sold has been established to address the repurchase risk inherent in the portfolio (see Operational Risk section).

Other consumer – Primarily consists of consumer loans not secured by real estate, including personal unsecured loans.

Commercial Credit

The primary factors considered in commercial credit approvals are the financial strength of the borrower, assessment of the borrower’s management capabilities, cash flows from operations, industry sector trends, type and sufficiency of collateral, type of exposure, transaction structure, and the general economic outlook. While these are the primary factors considered, there are a number of other factors that may be considered in the decision process. For all loans exceeding $5.0 million, we utilize a centralized senior loan committee, led by our chief credit officer for approvals of commercial credit. The risk rating (see next paragraph) of the credit determines the threshold for approval of the senior loan committee with a minimum credit exposure of $5.0 million. For loans not requiring senior loan committee approval, with the exception of small business loans, credit officers who understand each local region and are experienced in the industries and loan structures of the requested credit exposure are involved in all loan decisions and have the primary credit authority. For small business loans, we utilize a centralized loan approval process for standard products and structures. In this centralized decision environment, certain individuals who understand each local region may make credit-extension decisions to preserve our commitment to the communities we operate in. In addition to disciplined and consistent judgmental factors, a sophisticated credit scoring process is used as a primary evaluation tool in the determination of approving a loan within the centralized loan approval process.

Table of Contents

In commercial lending, on-going credit management is dependent on the type and nature of the loan. We monitor all significant exposures on an on-going basis. All commercial credit extensions are assigned internal risk ratings reflecting the borrower’s PD and LGD (severity of loss). This two-dimensional rating methodology provides granularity in the portfolio management process. The PD is rated and applied at the borrower level. The LGD is rated and applied based on the specific type of credit extension and the quality and lien position associated with the underlying collateral. The internal risk ratings are assessed at origination and updated at each periodic monitoring event. There is also extensive macro portfolio management analysis on an on-going basis. We continually review and adjust our risk-rating criteria based on actual experience, which provides us with the current risk level in the portfolio and is the basis for determining an appropriate ALLL amount for the commercial portfolio. A centralized portfolio management team monitors and reports on the performance of the entire commercial portfolio, including small business loans, to provide consistent oversight.

In addition to the initial credit analysis conducted during the approval process, our Credit Review group performs testing to provide an independent review and assessment of the quality and / or risk of new loan originations. This group is part of our Risk Management area, and conducts portfolio reviews on a risk-based cycle to evaluate individual loans, validate risk ratings, as well as test the consistency of credit processes.

Our standardized loan grading system considers many components that directly correlate to loan quality and likelihood of repayment, one of which is guarantor support. On an annual basis, or more frequently if warranted, we consider, among other things, the guarantor’s reputation and creditworthiness, along with various key financial metrics such as liquidity and net worth, assuming such information is available. Our assessment of the guarantor’s credit strength, or lack thereof, is reflected in our risk ratings for such loans, which is directly tied to, and an integral component of, our ALLL methodology. When a loan goes to impaired status, viable guarantor support is considered in the determination of the recognition of a loan loss.

If our assessment of the guarantor’s credit strength yields an inherent capacity to perform, we will seek repayment from the guarantor as part of the collection process and have done so successfully. However, we do not formally track the repayment success from guarantors.

Substantially all loans categorized as Classified (see Note 3 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) are managed by our SAD. The SAD is a specialized group of credit professionals that handle the day-to-day management of workouts, commercial recoveries, and problem loan sales. Its responsibilities include developing and implementing action plans, assessing risk ratings, and determining the appropriateness of the allowance, the accrual status, and the ultimate collectability of the Classified loan portfolio.

Our commercial portfolio is diversified by product type, customer size, and geography throughout our footprint. No outstanding commercial loans and leases comprised an industry or geographic concentration of lending. Certain segments of our commercial portfolio are discussed in further detail below.

C&I PORTFOLIO

The C&I portfolio is comprised of loans to businesses where the source of repayment is associated with the on-going operations of the business. Generally, the loans are secured with the financing of the borrower’s assets, such as equipment, accounts receivable, and/or inventory. In many cases, the loans are secured by real estate, although the operation, sale, or refinancing of the real estate is not a primary source of repayment for the loan. For loans secured by real estate, appropriate appraisals are obtained at origination and updated on an as needed basis in compliance with regulatory requirements.

There were no commercial loan segments considered an industry or geographic concentration of lending. Currently, higher-risk segments of the C&I portfolio include loans to borrowers supporting the home building industry, contractors, and transportation. We manage the risks inherent in this portfolio through origination policies, a defined loan concentration policy with established limits, on-going loan level reviews and portfolio level reviews, recourse requirements, and continuous portfolio risk management activities. Our origination policies for this portfolio include loan product-type specific policies such as LTV and debt service coverage ratios, as applicable.

While C&I borrowers have been challenged by the weak economy, problem loans have trended downward, reflecting a combination of proactive risk identification as well as some relative improvement in the economic conditions. Nevertheless, some borrowers may no longer have sufficient capital to withstand the extended stress. As a result, these borrowers may not be able to comply with the original terms of their credit agreements. We continue to focus attention on the portfolio management process to proactively identify borrowers that may be facing financial difficulty to assess all potential solutions. The impact of the economic environment is further evidenced by the level of line-of-credit activity, as borrowers continued to maintain relatively low utilization percentages.

CRE PORTFOLIO

We manage the risks inherent in this portfolio specific to CRE lending, focusing on the quality of the developer, and the specifics associated with each project. Generally, we: (1) limit our loans to 80% of the appraised value of the commercial real estate at origination, (2) require net operating cash flows to be 125% of required interest and principal payments, and (3) if the commercial real estate is nonowner occupied, require that at least 50% of the space of the project be preleased. Additionally, we established a limit to our CRE exposure of no more than the amount of Tier 1 risk-based capital plus the ACL. We have been actively reducing our CRE exposure during the past several years, and our CRE exposure met this established limit at June 30, 2012. We actively monitor both geographic and project-type concentrations and performance metrics of all CRE loan types, with a focus on higher-risk classes. Both macro-level and loan-level stress-test scenarios based on existing and forecast market conditions are part of the on-going portfolio management process for the CRE portfolio.

Each CRE loan is classified as either core or noncore. We believe segregating the noncore CRE from core CRE improves our ability to understand the nature, performance prospects, and problem resolution opportunities of these segments, thus allowing us to continue to deal proactively with any emerging credit issues.

A CRE loan is generally considered core when the borrower is an experienced, well-capitalized developer in our Midwest footprint, and has either an established meaningful relationship with us that generates an acceptable return on capital or demonstrates the prospect of becoming one. The core CRE portfolio was $4.2 billion at June 30, 2012, representing 71% of total CRE loans. The performance of the core portfolio met our expectations based on the consistency of the asset quality metrics within the portfolio. Based on our extensive project level assessment process, including forward-looking collateral valuations, we continue to believe the credit quality of the core portfolio is stable. Loans are not reclassified between the core and noncore segments based on performance, and as such, we do not anticipate an elevated level of problem loans in the core portfolio.

A CRE loan is generally considered noncore based on the lack of a substantive relationship outside of the loan product, with no immediate prospects for meeting the core relationship criteria. The noncore CRE portfolio declined from $1.8 billion at December 31, 2011, to $1.7 billion at June 30, 2012, and represented 29% of total CRE loans. Of the loans in the noncore portfolio at June 30, 2012, 68% were categorized as Pass, 95% had guarantors, 99% were secured, and 93% were located within our geographic footprint. However, it is within the noncore portfolio where most of the credit quality challenges exist. For example, $0.2 billion, or 10%, of related outstanding balances, are classified as NALs. SAD administered $0.7 billion, or 41%, of total noncore CRE loans at June 30, 2012. We expect to exit the majority of noncore CRE relationships over time through normal repayments and refinancings, possible sales should economically attractive opportunities arise, or the reclassification to a core CRE relationship if it expands to meet the core criteria.

Credit quality data regarding the ACL and NALs, segregated by core CRE loans and noncore CRE loans, is presented in the following table:

Table of Contents

As shown in the above table, the ending balance of the CRE portfolio at June 30, 2012, increased slightly compared with December 31, 2011, as a result of the Fidelity acquisition. However, the noncore portfolio declined 8% compared to December 31, 2011, and was a result of payoffs and NCOs as we actively focus on the noncore portfolio to reduce our overall CRE exposure. This reduction demonstrates our continued commitment to achieving a materially lower risk profile in the CRE portfolio, consistent with our overall objective of maintaining an aggregate moderate-to-low risk profile. We will continue to support our core developer customers as appropriate, however, we do not believe that significant additional CRE activity is appropriate given our current exposure in CRE lending and the current economic conditions.

Also, as shown above, substantial reserves for the noncore portfolio have been established. At June 30, 2012, the ACL related to the noncore portfolio was 11.93%. The combination of the existing ACL and prior NCOs represents the total credit actions taken on each segment of the portfolio. From this data, we calculate a credit mark that provides a consistent measurement of the cumulative credit actions taken against a specific portfolio segment. The 37.63% credit mark associated with the SAD-managed noncore portfolio is an indicator of the proactive portfolio management strategy employed for this portfolio.

Consumer Credit

Consumer credit approvals are based on, among other factors, the financial strength and payment history of the borrower, type of exposure, and the transaction structure. We make extensive use of portfolio assessment models to continuously monitor the quality of the portfolio, which may result in changes to future origination strategies. The on-going analysis and review process results in a determination of an appropriate allowance for our consumer loan and lease portfolio.

AUTOMOBILE PORTFOLIO

Our strategy in the automobile portfolio continued to focus on high quality borrowers as measured by both FICO and internal custom scores, combined with appropriate LTVs, terms, and a reasonable level of profitability. Our strategy and operational capabilities allow us to appropriately manage the origination quality across the entire portfolio, including our newer markets. Although increased origination volume and entering new markets can be associated with increased risk levels, we believe our strategy and operational capabilities significantly mitigate these risks.

We have continued to consistently execute our value proposition and take advantage of available market opportunities. Importantly, we have maintained our high credit quality standard while growing the portfolio. We have developed and implemented a loan securitization strategy to ensure we remain within our established portfolio concentration limits.

During the 2012 first quarter, we transferred automobile loans totaling $1.3 billion to a trust in a securitization transaction. The securitization and resulting sale of all underlying securities qualified for sale accounting. As a result of this transaction, we recognized a $23.0 million gain on sale which is reflected in other noninterest income and recorded a $19.9 million servicing asset which is reflected in accrued income and other assets. Also, in the 2012 second quarter, $1.3 billion of automobile loans were transferred to loans held for sale, reflecting an automobile loan securitization planned for the second half of 2012.

RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE SECURED PORTFOLIOS

The properties securing our residential mortgage and home equity portfolios are primarily located within our geographic footprint. The continued stress on home prices has caused the performance in these portfolios to remain weaker than historical levels. The residential-secured portfolio originations continue to be of high quality, with the majority of the negative credit impact coming from loans originated in 2006 and earlier. We continue to evaluate all of our policies and processes associated with managing these portfolios. Our loss mitigation and foreclosure activities are consolidated in one location under common management. This structure allows us to focus on effectively helping our customers with the appropriate solution for their specific circumstances.

Home Equity Portfolio

Our home equity portfolio (loans and lines-of-credit) consists of both first-lien and junior-lien mortgage loans with underwriting criteria based on minimum credit scores, debt-to-income ratios, and LTV ratios. We offer closed-end home equity loans which are generally fixed-rate with principal and interest payments, and variable-rate interest-only home equity lines-of-credit which do not require payment of principal during the 10-year revolving period of the line-of-credit. Applications are underwritten centrally in conjunction with an automated underwriting system.

At June 30, 2012, 50% of our home equity portfolio was secured by first-lien mortgages. The credit risk profile is substantially reduced when we hold a first-lien position. During the first six-month period of 2012, 75% of our home equity portfolio originations were secured by a first-lien mortgage. We focus on high quality borrowers primarily located within our footprint. The majority of our home equity line-of-credit borrowers consistently pay more than the minimum payment required in any given month. Additionally, since we focus on developing complete relationships with our customers, many of our home equity borrowers are utilizing other products and services. The combination of high quality borrowers as measured by financial condition and FICO score, as well as the lien position, provide a high degree of confidence regarding the performance of the 2009-2011 originations.

Within the home equity line-of-credit portfolio, the standard product is a 10-year interest-only draw period with a balloon payment and represents a majority of the line-of-credit portfolio at June 30, 2012. As previously discussed, a significant portion of recent originations are secured by first-liens on the underlying property as high quality borrowers take advantage of the low variable-rates available with a line-of-credit. If the current 30-year fixed-rate declines substantially from its already low level, we would anticipate some portion of these first-lien line-of-credit borrowers to refinance to a more traditional residential mortgage at a fixed-rate.

We believe we have underwritten credit conservatively within this portfolio. We have not originated home equity loans or lines-of-credit with an LTV at origination greater than 100%, except for infrequent situations with high quality borrowers. However, continued declines in housing prices have decreased the value of the collateral for this portfolio and have caused a portion of the portfolio to have an LTV greater than 100%. These higher LTV ratios are directly correlated with borrower payment patterns and are a focus of our Loss Mitigation and Home Saver groups.

We obtain a property valuation for every loan or line-of-credit as part of the origination process, and the valuation is reviewed by a real estate professional in conjunction with the credit underwriting process. The type of property valuation obtained is based on a series of credit parameters, and ranges from an AVM to a complete walkthrough appraisal. While we believe an AVM estimate is an appropriate valuation source for a portion of our home equity lending activities, we continue to re-evaluate all of our policies on an on-going basis with the intent of ensuring complete independence in the requesting and reviewing of real estate valuations associated with loan decisions. We update values as appropriate, and in compliance with applicable regulations, for loans identified as higher risk. Loans are identified as higher risk based on performance indicators and the updated values are utilized to facilitate our portfolio management processes, as well as our workout and loss mitigation functions.

We continue to make origination policy adjustments based on our assessment of an appropriate risk profile and industry actions, as well as the recently issued Basel III NPRs (see Capital section). In addition to origination policy adjustments, we take actions, as necessary, to manage the risk profile of this portfolio. We believe our Credit Risk Management systems allow for effective portfolio analysis and segmentation to identify the highest risk exposures in the portfolio. Our disclosures regarding lien position, FICO distribution, and geographical distribution are examples of segmentation analysis.

Table of Contents

An emerging trend has been identified where borrowers make a purposeful financial decision to stop making required payments on the junior-lien loan, and in some cases, the first-lien loan. This strategic default scenario is generally associated with borrowers that have very limited or no history of delinquency. These accounts also tend to migrate quickly from a current status to charge-off without the historical stops at each delinquency stage. The resulting increase in the relative speed of the migration from current status to charge-off represents a negative impact to the longer term performance of the portfolio. Although the collateral value assessment is an important component of the overall credit risk analysis, there are very few instances of available equity in junior-lien default situations. In response to this trend and the potential negative impacts to the portfolio, we have established at least a 98% LGD for junior-lien loans, which at June 30, 2012, comprised 50% of our home equity portfolio.

Further, in January 2012, regulatory guidance was published addressing specific risks and required actions associated with junior-lien loans. As a result of this guidance, effective with the 2012 first quarter, any junior-lien loan associated with a nonaccruing first-lien loan is also placed on nonaccrual status. This action resulted in an increase in home equity NALs of $8.7 million in the 2012 first quarter. Also contained in the regulatory guidance was an item associated with maturing HELOCs. Even in situations where the product contains an amortization period at the conclusion of the draw period, there will likely be a payment shock to the borrower. This is a risk embedded in the portfolio that we address with proactive contact strategies beginning 180 days prior to maturity. In certain circumstances, our Home Savers team is able to provide payment and structure relief to borrowers experiencing significant financial hardship associated with the payment adjustment.

Residential Mortgage Portfolio

We focus on higher quality borrowers and underwrite all applications centrally. We do not originate residential mortgages that allow negative amortization or allow the borrower multiple payment options. We will continue to evaluate the impact of the recently issued Basel III NPRs to our residential mortgage origination policies.

All residential mortgages are originated based on a completed full appraisal during the credit underwriting process. We update values on a regular basis in compliance with applicable regulations to facilitate our portfolio management, as well as our workout and loss mitigation functions.

At June 30, 2012, 51% of our total residential mortgage loan portfolio had adjustable rates. At June 30, 2012, ARM loans that were expected to have rates reset totaled $1.8 billion through 2015. These loans scheduled to reset are primarily associated with loans originated subsequent to 2007, and as such, are not subject to the most significant declines in underlying property value. Given the quality of our borrowers, the relatively low current interest rates, and the results of our continued analysis (including possible impacts of changes in interest rates), we believe that we have a relatively limited exposure to ARM reset risk. Nonetheless, we have taken actions to mitigate our risk exposure. We initiate borrower contact at least six months prior to the interest rate resetting, and have been successful in converting many ARMs to fixed-rate loans through this process. Given the relatively low current interest rates, many fixed-rate products currently offer a better interest rate to our ARM borrowers.

Several government programs continued to impact the residential mortgage portfolio, including various refinance programs such as HAMP and HARP, which positively affected the availability of credit for the industry. We utilize these programs to enhance our existing strategies of working closely with our customers. During the first six-month period of 2012, we closed $257 million in HARP residential mortgages and $4 million in HAMP residential mortgages. The HARP residential mortgage loans are considered current and are either part of our residential mortgage portfolio or serviced for others. The HAMP refinancings are associated with residential mortgages that are serviced for others.

Credit Quality

(This section should be read in conjunction with Note 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

We believe the most meaningful way to assess overall credit quality performance is through an analysis of credit quality performance ratios. This approach forms the basis of most of the discussion in the sections immediately following: NPAs and NALs, TDRs, ACL, and NCOs. In addition, we utilize delinquency rates, risk distribution and migration patterns, and product segmentation in the analysis of our credit quality performance.

Credit quality performance in the 2012 second quarter reflected overall continued improvement despite the inclusion of the acquired Fidelity portfolio. NCOs increased slightly compared to the prior quarter and declined substantially from the year-ago quarter. NPAs declined 1% compared to the prior quarter. Although commercial Criticized loans increased compared to the prior quarter as a result of the Fidelity acquisition, the overall portfolio excluding the acquired Fidelity loans continued to improve. The ACL to total loans ratio declined to 2.28% and our ACL coverage ratios remained at appropriate levels. Our ACL as a percentage of NPAs remained strong at 174%.

NPAs, NALs, AND TDRs

(This section should be read in conjunction with Note 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

NPAs and NALs

NPAs consist of (1) NALs, which represent loans and leases no longer accruing interest, (2) impaired loans held for sale, (3) OREO properties, and (4) other NPAs. Any loan in our portfolio may be placed on nonaccrual status prior to the policies described below when collection of principal or interest is in doubt.

C&I and CRE loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 90-days past due. With the exception of residential mortgage loans guaranteed by government organizations which continue to accrue interest, residential mortgage loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 150-days past due. First-lien home equity loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 150-days past due. Junior-lien home equity loans are placed on nonaccrual status at the earlier of 120-days past due or when the related first-lien loan has been identified as nonaccrual. Automobile and other consumer loans are not placed on nonaccrual status, but are generally charged-off when the loan is 120-days past due. When interest accruals are suspended, accrued interest income is reversed with current year accruals charged to earnings and prior year amounts generally charged-off as a credit loss. When, in our judgment, the borrower’s ability to make required interest and principal payments has resumed and collectability is no longer in doubt, the loan or lease is returned to accrual status.

     1.31       1.29       1.51       1.57       1.67  

 

(1) All loans acquired as part of the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition accrue interest as performing loans or as purchased impaired loans in accordance with ASC 310-30; therefore, none of the acquired loans were reported as nonaccrual at March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012.
(2) Residential real estate owned acquired in the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition are reflected in the above table effective March 31, 2012.
(3) Other nonperforming assets represent an investment security backed by a municipal bond.
(4) This ratio is calculated as nonperforming assets divided by the sum of loans and leases, other nonperforming assets, and net other real estate.

The $3.8 million, or 1%, decline in NPAs compared with March 31, 2012, primarily reflected:

 

   

$10.1 million, or 21%, decline in OREO, primarily reflecting significant sale activity during the current quarter. The increase in the 2012 first quarter primarily resulted from OREO properties acquired in the Fidelity Bank acquisition.

 

   

$8.8 million, or 6%, decline in C&I NALs, reflecting both NCO activity and problem credit resolutions, including payoffs. The decline was associated with loans throughout our footprint, with no specific industry concentration.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$14.3 million, or 7%, increase in CRE NALs, reflecting a small number of higher-dollar amount loans. Although we anticipate some degree of quarter-to-quarter volatility in our NAL levels, we expect that the overall trend will continue to be lower.

As part of our loss mitigation process, we reunderwrite, modify, or restructure loans when borrowers are experiencing payment difficulties, based on the borrower’s ability to repay the loan.

Compared with December 31, 2011, NPAs decreased $67.0 million, or 11%, primarily reflecting:

 

   

$68.2 million, or 34%, decline in C&I NALs, reflecting both NCO activity and problem credit resolutions, including payoffs. The decline was associated with loans throughout our footprint, with no specific industry concentration.

 

   

$10.5 million, or 5%, decline in CRE NALs, reflecting both NCO activity and problem credit resolutions, including borrower payments and payoffs, partially offset by a small number of relatively higher-dollar loans placed on nonaccrual status during the current quarter.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$6.4 million, or 9%, increase in residential mortgage NALs, reflecting the sustained weak economic conditions and the decline of residential real estate property values. The NAL balances have been written down to net realizable value, less anticipated selling costs, which substantially limits any significant future risk of additional loss on these loans.

 

   

$5.3 million, or 13%, increase in home equity NALs, also reflecting our implementation of regulatory guidance issued in the 2012 first quarter (see ACL section). This action resulted in an increase in home equity NALs of $8.7 million in the 2012 first quarter.

TDR Loans

(This section should be read in conjunction with Note 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

TDRs are modified loans in which a concession is provided to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. TDRs can be classified as either accrual or nonaccrual loans. Nonaccrual TDRs are included in NALs whereas accruing TDRs are excluded from NALs, as it is probable that all contractual principal and interest due under the restructured terms will be collected. TDRs primarily reflect our loss mitigation efforts to proactively work with borrowers having difficulty making their payments.

The table below presents our accruing and nonaccruing TDRs at period-end for each of the past five quarters:

ACL

(This section should be read in conjunction with Note 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

We maintain two reserves, both of which in our judgment are appropriate to absorb credit losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio: the ALLL and the AULC. Combined, these reserves comprise the total ACL. Our Credit Administration group is responsible for developing the methodology assumptions and estimates used in the calculation, as well as determining the appropriateness of the ACL. The ALLL represents the estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the reported date. Additions to the ALLL result from recording provision expense for loan losses or increased risk levels resulting from loan risk-rating downgrades, while reductions reflect charge-offs (net of recoveries), decreased risk levels resulting from loan risk-rating upgrades, or the sale of loans. The AULC is determined by applying the transaction reserve process to the unfunded portion of the loan exposures adjusted by an applicable funding expectation.

A provision for credit losses is recorded to adjust the ACL to the level we have determined to be appropriate to absorb credit losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio. The provision for credit losses in the 2012 second quarter was $36.5 million, compared with $34.4 million in the prior quarter and $35.8 million in the year-ago quarter. (See Provision for Credit Losses discussion).

We regularly evaluate the appropriateness of the ACL by performing on-going evaluations of the loan and lease portfolio, including such factors as the differing economic risks associated with each loan category, the financial condition of specific borrowers, the level of delinquent loans, the value of any collateral and, where applicable, the existence of any guarantees or other documented support. We evaluate the impact of changes in interest rates and overall economic conditions on the ability of borrowers to meet their financial obligations when quantifying our exposure to credit losses and assessing the appropriateness of our ACL at each reporting date. In addition to general economic conditions and the other factors described above, we also consider the impact of declining residential real estate values and the diversification of CRE loans.

Our ACL evaluation process includes the on-going assessment of credit quality metrics, and a comparison of certain ACL benchmarks to current performance. While the total ACL balance has declined in recent quarters, all of the relevant benchmarks remain strong.

We have incorporated recent regulatory guidance which focused on home equity loans, specifically junior-lien loans when the related first-lien loan is delinquent, into our ACL adequacy analysis processes. As we evaluated this guidance in the context of the continued economic strain on some of our borrowers, we determined it was appropriate to assess borrower risk at a more granular level in order to ensure we had identified the incurred risk embedded within our portfolios secured by residential real estate, particularly the home equity junior-lien portfolio. In addition to the updated FICO score for each borrower and the delinquency status of each Huntington loan, our analysis also considers any non-delinquent Huntington loan secured by residential real estate when the borrower has a significant delinquency on the most recent credit bureau report.

The table below reflects the allocation of our ACL among our various loan categories during each of the past five quarters:

(1) In accordance with ASC 805, no allowance for credit losses was recorded for the loans acquired in the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition.
(2) Percentages represent the percentage of each loan and lease category to total loans and leases. Total loans and leases include loans acquired in the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition effective March 31, 2012.
(3) Loans acquired in the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition are reflected in this calculation effective March 31, 2012.
(4) None of the loans acquired in the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition were considered nonaccrual.
(5) None of the loans acquired in the FDIC-assisted Fidelity Bank acquisition were considered nonaccrual, however, acquired other real estate owned properties are included in nonperforming assets, and are reflected in the calculation effective March 31, 2012.

The reduction in the ALLL compared with March 31, 2012 primarily reflected a decline in the consumer portfolio, and to a lesser extent, the commercial real estate portfolio. These declines were partially offset by an increase in the C&I portfolio resulting from significant loan growth.

The ACL to total loans declined to 2.28% at June 30, 2012 compared to 2.60% at December 31, 2011. We believe the decline in the ratio is appropriate given the continued improvement in the risk profile of our loan portfolio. Further, we believe that early identification of loans with changes in credit metrics and aggressive action plans for these loans, combined with originating high quality new loans will contribute to continued improvement in our key credit quality metrics. However, the overall economic conditions improved only slightly in the first six-month period of 2012 and the residential real estate market remained stressed. The overall economic conditions have shown some recent improvement, but risks to a full recovery remain, including the European economic instability, continued budget issues in local governments, flat domestic economic growth, and the variety of policy proposals regarding job growth, debt management, and domestic tax policy. Continued high unemployment, among other factors, has slowed any significant recovery. In the near-term, we anticipate a continued high unemployment rate and the concern around the U.S. and local government budget issues will continue to negatively impact the financial condition of some of our retail and commercial borrowers.

The pronounced downturn in the residential real estate market that began in early 2007 has resulted in significantly lower residential real estate values. We have significant exposure to loans secured by residential real estate and continue to be an active lender in our communities. The impact of the downturn in real estate values has had a significant impact on some of our borrowers as evidenced by the higher delinquencies and NCOs since late 2007. We do not anticipate any meaningful improvement in the near-term. A trend of purposeful delinquencies or strategic defaults has begun impacting both NCO and NAL levels in the residential real estate secured portfolios. These borrower actions drove writedowns and increased NAL levels in the residential mortgage and first-lien home equity portfolio, and NCOs in the junior-lien home equity portfolio. Given the combination of these noted factors, we believe that our ACL is appropriate and its coverage level is reflective of the quality of our portfolio and the current operating environment.

NCOs

Any loan in any portfolio may be charged-off prior to the policies described below if a loss confirming event has occurred. Loss confirming events include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy (unsecured), continued delinquency, foreclosure, or receipt of an asset valuation indicating a collateral deficiency and that asset is the sole source of repayment.

C&I and CRE loans are either charged-off or written down to net realizable value at 90-days past due. Automobile loans and other consumer loans are charged-off at 120-days past due. First-lien and junior-lien home equity loans are charged-off to the estimated fair value of the collateral, less anticipated selling costs, at 150-days past due and 120-days past due, respectively. Residential mortgages are charged-off to the estimated fair value of the collateral, less anticipated selling costs, at 150-days past due.

In assessing NCO trends, it is helpful to understand the process of how commercial loans are treated as they deteriorate over time. The ALLL established at origination is consistent with the level of risk associated with the original underwriting. As a part of our normal portfolio management process for commercial loans, the loan is periodically reviewed and the ALLL is increased or decreased based on the revised risk rating. In certain cases, the standard ALLL is determined to not be appropriate, and a specific reserve is established based on the projected cash flow and collateral value of the specific loan. Charge-offs, if necessary, are generally recognized in a period after the specific ALLL was established. If the previously established ALLL exceeds that necessary to satisfactorily resolve the problem loan, a reduction in the overall level of the ALLL could be recognized. Consumer loans are treated in much the same manner as commercial loans, although specific reserves are not identified for consumer loans. In summary, if loan quality deteriorates, the typical credit sequence would be periods of reserve building, followed by periods of higher NCOs as the previously established ALLL is utilized. Additionally, an increase in the ALLL either precedes or is in conjunction with increases in NALs. When a loan is classified as NAL, it is evaluated for specific ALLL or charge-off. As a result, an increase in NALs does not necessarily result in an increase in the ALLL or an expectation of higher future NCOs.

Home equity NCO annualized percentages generally are greater than those of the residential mortgage portfolio as a result of the junior-lien loans. The opposite relationship in the 2011 first quarter and 2011 second quarter was the result of portfolio actions in the residential mortgage portfolio, including accelerated loss recognition and portfolio sales activity.

We anticipate a continuation of the pattern established over the last year of residential mortgage portfolio NCO annualized percentages being lower than the home equity portfolio NCO annualized percentages. As we have focused on originating high-quality home equity loans, we believe the PD risk is lower in the home equity portfolio. However, the LGD component is significantly higher than the residential mortgage portfolio, which results in our projection for lower NCOs in the residential mortgage portfolio relative to the home equity portfolio in the future. Therefore, we believe the residential mortgage NCO annualized percentage will remain lower compared to the home equity portfolio as a result of the entire first-lien composition of the residential mortgage portfolio, as well as the result of previous credit actions improving the underlying quality of these portfolios.

Both the home equity and residential mortgage portfolio NCO levels are anticipated to remain at elevated levels in the near future. The home equity portfolio will continue to be impacted by borrowers that are seeking to refinance, but are in a negative equity position because of the junior-lien loan. Right-sizing and debt forgiveness associated with these situations are becoming more frequent as borrowers realize the impact to their credit is minor, and that a default on a junior-lien loan is not likely to cause borrowers to lose their home.

From a delinquency standpoint, all residential mortgage loans greater than 150-days past due are charged-down to the estimated value of the collateral, less anticipated selling costs. The remaining balance is in delinquent status until a modification can be completed, or the loan goes through the foreclosure process. For the home equity portfolio, virtually all of the defaults represent full charge-offs as there is no remaining equity, creating a lower delinquency rate but a higher NCO impact.

2012 Second Quarter versus 2012 First Quarter

C&I NCOs decreased $12.8 million, or 45%. Current quarter NCOs were generally associated with smaller relationships and there was not any specific concentration in either geography or project type. Given the relatively low absolute level of NCOs in this portfolio, some level of volatility on a quarter to quarter basis is expected.

CRE NCOs increased $18.7 million, or 178%. The vast majority of this increase represented two larger NCOs. As with the C&I portfolio, given the relatively low absolute level of NCOs in this portfolio, some level of volatility on a quarter to quarter basis is expected.

Automobile NCOs decreased $2.6 million, or 85%. The relatively low levels of NCOs reflected the continued high credit quality of originations and a strong resale market for used automobiles. We anticipate continued strength in the used automobile market for the remainder of 2012.

Home equity NCOs decreased $2.7 million, or 11%. The decline is a positive sign, however, the continued stresses in the residential property markets remain. We continue to manage the default rate through focused delinquency monitoring as essentially all defaults for junior-lien home equity loans incur significant losses reflecting the reduction of equity associated with the collateral property.

2012 First Six Months versus 2011 First Six Months

C&I NCOs decreased $16.7 million, or 27%, primarily reflecting credit quality improvement in the underlying portfolio as well as our on-going proactive credit management practices. There was not any concentration in either geography or project type.

CRE NCOs decreased $55.6 million, or 58%, primarily reflecting credit quality improvement in the underlying portfolio as well as our on-going proactive credit management practices. There was no concentration in either geography or project type, and the NCOs were generally associated with small relationships. The performance of the portfolio was consistent with our expectations.

Automobile NCOs decreased $3.4 million, or 49%. The relatively low levels of NCOs reflected the continued high credit quality of originations and a strong resale market for used vehicles.

Home equity NCOs declined $7.4 million, or 14%. The decline is an indication of the continuing improvement in the portfolio. This slowly emerging declining trend is consistent with our expectations for this portfolio. We continue to manage the default rate through focused delinquency monitoring as essentially all defaults for junior-lien home equity loans incur significant losses reflecting the reduction of equity associated with the collateral property.

Residential mortgage NCOs declined $14.0 million, or 40%, reflecting improvement in the overall economy compared to the year-ago period, however, the continued stress in the residential real estate market remains and NCOs remain elevated compared to historic performance.

Market Risk

Market risk represents the risk of loss due to changes in market values of assets and liabilities. We incur market risk in the normal course of business through exposures to market interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, credit spreads, and expected lease residual values. We have identified two primary sources of market risk: interest rate risk and price risk.

Interest Rate Risk

OVERVIEW

Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and value arising from changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from timing differences in the repricings and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (reprice risk), changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities from embedded options, such as borrowers’ ability to prepay residential mortgage loans at any time and depositors’ ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity (option risk), changes in the shape of the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a non-parallel fashion (yield curve risk), and changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries and LIBOR (basis risk).

INCOME SIMULATION AND ECONOMIC VALUE ANALYSIS

Interest rate risk measurement is calculated and reported to the ALCO and ROC monthly. The information reported includes the identification of any policy limits that have been exceeded, along with an assessment that describes the policy limit breach and outlines the action plan and timeline for resolution, mitigation, or assumption of the risk. Two broad approaches to modeling interest rate risk are employed: income simulation and economic value analysis. An income simulation analysis is used to measure the sensitivity of forecasted ISE to changes in market rates over a one-year time period. Although BOLI, automobile operating lease assets, and excess cash balances held at the Federal Reserve Bank are classified as noninterest-earning assets, and the net revenue from these assets is recorded in noninterest income and noninterest expense, these portfolios are included in the interest sensitivity analysis because they have attributes similar to interest-earning assets. EVE analysis measures the sensitivity of period-end assets and liabilities to changes in market interest rates. EVE at risk is measured on a net tangible equity basis, excluding ALLL and AULC reserves. EVE analysis serves as a complement to ISE analysis as it provides risk exposure estimates for time periods beyond the one-year ISE simulation period. The major difference between ISE and EVE analysis is that ISE uses a forecasted balance sheet to determine the sensitivity to market rates, while EVE is a point in time valuation of the net equity position. Since ISE measures the impact of changes in market rates to earnings and EVE measures the change in market rates to the net equity position, it is not unusual to have an asset-sensitive ISE, but a liability-sensitive EVE exposure.

The models used for both ISE and EVE consider prepayment speeds on mortgage loans, mortgage-backed securities, and consumer installment loans, as well as cash flows of other assets and liabilities. ISE analysis also considers balance sheet growth assumptions. Both include the effects of derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, caps, floors, and other types of interest rate options.

ISE analysis first determines a baseline scenario using market interest rates implied by the prevailing implied forward yield curve as of the period-end. Alternative scenarios, usually involving gradual (ramps) and sudden (shocks) rate changes, are then used to determine any changes in net interest income and margin. In addition to standard ramps and shocks, ISE analysis uses other interest rate scenarios that alter the shape of the yield curve (e.g., a flatter or steeper yield curve), or hold current interest rates constant for the entire measurement period. ISE analysis also uses alternative scenarios to measure short-term repricing risks, such as the impact of LIBOR-based interest rates rising or falling faster than the Prime rate.

The scenarios for evaluating ISE exposure model gradual +/-100 and +/-200 basis point parallel shifts in market interest rates over the next one-year period, beyond the interest rate change implied by the current implied forward yield curve. We assume market interest rates will not fall below 0% for these scenarios. The table below shows the results of these scenarios as of June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011. All of the positions were within the board of directors’ policy limits for those periods.

The ISE at risk reported as of June 30, 2012, for the +200 basis points scenario shows a more asset sensitive interest rate risk position compared with December 31, 2011.

The following table shows the income sensitivity of select portfolios to changes in market interest rates. A portfolio with 100% sensitivity would indicate that interest income and expense will change with the same magnitude and direction as interest rates. A portfolio with 0% sensitivity is insensitive to changes in interest rates. The percent change is calculated as the change in the simulated portfolio income/expense divided by a beta which represents the change in portfolio income/expense assuming 100% sensitivity to the change in market rates. Note that the that the beta calculated from -100 and -200 basis point scenarios are not subject to floors on market rates. In the -100 and -200 basis point scenarios, portfolio income/expense is constrained by floors on portfolio yields, with the -200 basis point scenario less sensitive because portfolio yields fall less as a percentage of the beta calculated from market rates. For the +200 basis points scenario, total interest-sensitive income is 37.1% sensitive to changes in market interest rates, while total interest-sensitive expense is 29.6% sensitive to changes in market interest rates. Net interest income at risk for the +200 basis points scenario has an asset-sensitive near-term interest rate risk position.

The EVE at risk reported as of June 30, 2012, for the +200 basis points scenario shows a higher liability sensitive position compared with December 31, 2011. The long-term liability exposure is a result of assets with longer duration than liabilities. When interest rates rise, fixed-rate assets lose economic value; the longer the duration, the greater the value lost. The opposite is true when interest rates fall; however, due to the absolute low level of current rates, the results for the EVE at risk in a down-shock are different than those in an up-shock. This is evidenced in the -200 basis point shock compared to the -100 basis point shock. EVE increases in the -100 basis point shock, albeit at a smaller amount than lost in the +100 basis point shock, due to prepayments. But EVE decreases in the -200 basis point shock because the longer-duration assets are impacted more by the flooring of market rates than the shorter-duration liabilities.

MSRs

(This section should be read in conjunction with Note 6 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

At June 30, 2012, we had a total of $128.3 million of capitalized MSRs representing the right to service $15.7 billion in mortgage loans. Of this $128.3 million, $45.1 million was recorded using the fair value method, and $83.2 million was recorded using the amortization method.

MSR fair values are very sensitive to movements in interest rates as expected future net servicing income depends on the projected outstanding principal balances of the underlying loans, which can be greatly reduced by prepayments. Prepayments usually increase when mortgage interest rates decline and decrease when mortgage interest rates rise. We have employed strategies to reduce the risk of MSR fair value changes or impairment. In addition, we engage a third party to provide valuation tools and assistance with our strategies with the objective to decrease the volatility from MSR fair value changes. However, volatile changes in interest rates can diminish the effectiveness of these hedges. We typically report MSR fair value adjustments net of hedge-related trading activity in the mortgage banking income category of noninterest income. Changes in fair value between reporting dates are recorded as an increase or a decrease in mortgage banking income.

MSRs recorded using the amortization method generally relate to loans originated with historically low interest rates, resulting in a lower probability of prepayments and, ultimately, impairment. MSR assets are included in accrued income and other assets in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Price Risk

Price risk represents the risk of loss arising from adverse movements in the prices of financial instruments that are carried at fair value and are subject to fair value accounting. We have price risk from trading securities, securities owned by our broker-dealer subsidiaries, foreign exchange positions, equity investments, investments in securities backed by mortgage loans, and marketable equity securities held by our insurance subsidiaries. We have established loss limits on the trading portfolio, on the amount of foreign exchange exposure that can be maintained, and on the amount of marketable equity securities that can be held by the insurance subsidiaries.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk of loss due to the possibility that funds may not be available to satisfy current or future commitments resulting from external macro market issues, investor and customer perception of financial strength, and events unrelated to us, such as war, terrorism, or financial institution market specific issues. In addition, the mix and maturity structure of Huntington’s balance sheet, amount of on-hand cash and unencumbered securities, and the availability of contingent sources of funding, can have an impact on Huntington’s ability to satisfy current or future funding commitments. We manage liquidity risk at both the Bank and the parent company.

 

47


Table of Contents

The overall objective of liquidity risk management is to ensure that we can obtain cost-effective funding to meet current and future obligations, and can maintain sufficient levels of on-hand liquidity, under both normal business as usual and unanticipated stressed circumstances. The ALCO was appointed by our Board Risk Oversight Committee to oversee liquidity risk management and the establishment of liquidity risk policies and limits. Contingency funding plans are in place, which measure forecasted sources and uses of funds under various scenarios in order to prepare for unexpected liquidity shortages. Liquidity risk is reviewed monthly for the Bank and the parent company, as well as its subsidiaries. In addition, liquidity working groups meet regularly to identify and monitor liquidity positions, provide policy guidance, review funding strategies, and oversee the adherence to, and maintenance of, the contingency funding plans.

Bank Liquidity and Sources of Liquidity

Our primary sources of funding for the Bank are retail and commercial core deposits. At June 30, 2012, these core deposits funded 77% of total assets (109% of total loans). At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, total core deposits represented 95% of total deposits.

Core deposits are comprised of interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing demand deposits, money market deposits, savings and other domestic deposits, consumer certificates of deposit both over and under $250,000, and nonconsumer certificates of deposit less than $250,000. Noncore deposits consist of brokered money market deposits and certificates of deposit, foreign time deposits, and other domestic deposits of $250,000 or more comprised primarily of public fund certificates of deposit more than $250,000.

Core deposits may increase our need for liquidity as certificates of deposit mature or are withdrawn before maturity and as nonmaturity deposits, such as checking and savings account balances, are withdrawn. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $1.2 billion from December 31, 2011, but include certain large commercial deposits that may be more short-term in nature.

Demand deposit overdrafts that have been reclassified as loan balances were $14.6 million, $26.2 million, and $15.9 million at June 30, 2012, December 31, 2011, and June 30, 2011, respectively. Other domestic time deposits of $250,000 or more and brokered deposits and negotiable CDs totaled $2.1 billion, $1.7 billion, and $1.9 billion at June 30, 2012, December 31, 2011, and June 30, 2011, respectively.

To the extent we are unable to obtain sufficient liquidity through core deposits, we may meet our liquidity needs through sources of wholesale funding or asset securitization or sale. These sources of wholesale funding include other domestic time deposits of $250,000 or more, brokered deposits and negotiable CDs, deposits in foreign offices, short-term borrowings, FHLB advances, other long-term debt, and subordinated notes. At June 30, 2012, total wholesale funding was $6.2 billion, a decrease from $6.6 billion at December 31, 2011. During the 2012 second quarter, Bank obligations of $600 million matured. An additional $65 million of Bank obligations will mature in October 2012.

The Bank also has access to the Federal Reserve’s discount window. These borrowings are secured by commercial loans and home equity lines-of-credit. The Bank is also a member of the FHLB, and as such, has access to advances from this facility. These advances are generally secured by residential mortgages, other mortgage-related loans, and available-for-sale securities. Information regarding amounts pledged, for the ability to borrow if necessary, and the unused borrowing capacity at both the Federal Reserve Bank and the FHLB, is outlined in the following table:

Parent Company Liquidity

The parent company’s funding requirements consist primarily of dividends to shareholders, debt service, income taxes, operating expenses, funding of nonbank subsidiaries, repurchases of our stock, and acquisitions. The parent company obtains funding to meet obligations from interest received from the Bank, interest and dividends received from direct subsidiaries, net taxes collected from subsidiaries included in the federal consolidated tax return, fees for services provided to subsidiaries, and the issuance of debt or equity securities.

At June 30, 2012, December 31, 2011, and June 30, 2011, the parent company had $1.0 billion, $0.9 billion and $0.6 billion, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents.

Based on the current quarterly dividend of $0.04 per common share, cash demands required for common stock dividends are estimated to be approximately $34.3 million per quarter. Based on the current dividend, cash demands required for Series A Preferred Stock are estimated to be approximately $7.7 million per quarter. Cash demands required for Series B Preferred Stock are expected to be approximately $0.3 million per quarter.

Based on a regulatory dividend limitation, the Bank could not have declared and paid a dividend to the parent company at June 30, 2012, without regulatory approval. We do not anticipate that the Bank will request regulatory approval to pay dividends in the near future as we continue to build Bank regulatory capital above its already well-capitalized level. To help meet any additional liquidity needs, we have an open-ended automatic shelf registration statement filed and effective with the SEC, which permits us to issue an unspecified amount of debt or equity securities.

With the exception of the common and preferred dividends previously discussed, the parent company does not have any significant cash demands. There are no maturities of parent company obligations until 2013, when a debt maturity of $50.0 million is payable. It is our policy to keep operating cash on hand at the parent company to satisfy any cash demands for a minimum of the next 18 months.

We sponsor a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all employees hired or rehired prior to January 1, 2010. The Plan provides benefits based upon length of service and compensation levels. Our policy is to contribute an annual amount that is at least equal to the minimum funding requirements. Although not required, Huntington may choose to make a cash contribution to the Plan up to the maximum deductible limit in the 2012 plan year. The Bank and other subsidiaries fund approximately 90% of pension contributions. Funding requirements are calculated annually as of the end of the year and are heavily dependent on the value of our pension plan assets and the interest rate used to discount plan obligations. To the extent that the low interest rate environment continues, including as a result of the Federal Reserve Maturity Extension Program, or the pension plan does not earn the expected asset return rates, annual pension contribution requirements in future years could increase and such increases could be significant. Any additional pension contributions are not expected to significantly impact liquidity. Although not required, Huntington’s board of directors approved a $75 million contribution to the Plan in the third quarter of 2012.

During the 2012 second quarter, we redeemed $80 million of trust preferred securities, resulting in a gain of $1.7 million. The trust preferred securities were redeemed at the redemption price (as a percentage of the liquidation amount) plus accrued and unpaid distributions to the redemption date. These redemptions were funded from our existing cash and were consistent with the capital plan we submitted to the Federal Reserve.

Considering the factors discussed above, and other analyses that we have performed, we believe the parent company has sufficient liquidity to meet its cash flow obligations for the foreseeable future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, we enter into various off-balance sheet arrangements. These arrangements include financial guarantees contained in standby letters-of-credit issued by the Bank and commitments by the Bank to sell mortgage loans.

Standby letters-of-credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. Most of these arrangements mature within two years and are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Standby letters-of-credit are included in the determination of the amount of risk-based capital that the parent company and the Bank are required to hold.

Through our credit process, we monitor the credit risks of outstanding standby letters-of-credit. When it is probable that a standby letter of credit will be drawn and not repaid in full, losses are recognized in the provision for credit losses. At June 30, 2012, we had $0.5 billion of standby letters-of-credit outstanding, of which 82% were collateralized. Included in this $0.5 billion are letters-of-credit issued by the Bank that support securities that were issued by our customers and remarketed by The Huntington Investment Company, our broker-dealer subsidiary.

We enter into forward contracts relating to the mortgage banking business to hedge the exposures we have from commitments to extend new residential mortgage loans to our customers and from our mortgage loans held for sale. At June 30, 2012, December 31, 2011, and June 30, 2011, we had commitments to sell residential real estate loans of $938.9 million, $629.0 million, and $400.2 million, respectively. These contracts mature in less than one year.

We do not believe that off-balance sheet arrangements will have a material impact on our liquidity or capital resources.

Operational Risk

As with all companies, we are subject to operational risk. Operational risk is the risk of loss due to human error; inadequate or failed internal systems and controls; violations of, or noncompliance with, laws, rules, regulations, prescribed practices, or ethical standards; and external influences such as market conditions, fraudulent activities, disasters, and security risks. We continuously strive to strengthen our system of internal controls to ensure compliance with laws, rules, and regulations, and to improve the oversight of our operational risk. For example, we actively and continuously monitor cyber-attacks such as attempts related to efraud and loss of sensitive customer data. We constantly evaluate internal systems, processes and controls to mitigate loss from cyber-attacks and, to date, have not experienced any material losses.

To mitigate operational risks, we have established a senior management Operational Risk Committee and a senior management Legal, Regulatory, and Compliance Committee. The responsibilities of these committees, among other duties, include establishing and maintaining management information systems to monitor material risks and to identify potential concerns, risks, or trends that may have a significant impact and ensuring that recommendations are developed to address the identified issues. Both of these committees report any significant findings and recommendations to the Risk Management Committee. Additionally, potential concerns may be escalated to our Board Risk Oversight Committee, as appropriate.

The goal of this framework is to implement effective operational risk techniques and strategies, minimize operational and fraud losses, and enhance our overall performance.

Representation and Warranty Reserve

We primarily conduct our mortgage loan sale and securitization activity with FNMA and FHLMC. In connection with these and other securitization transactions, we make certain representations and warranties that the loans meet certain criteria, such as collateral type and underwriting standards. We may be required to repurchase individual loans and / or indemnify these organizations against losses due to a loan not meeting the established criteria. We have a reserve for such losses, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The reserves are estimated based on historical and expected repurchase activity, average loss rates, and current economic trends. The level of mortgage loan repurchase losses depends upon economic factors, investor demand strategies and other external conditions containing a level of uncertainty and risk that may change over the life of the underlying loans. We do not have sufficient information to estimate the range of reasonably possible loss related to representation and warranty exposure.

The table below reflects activity in the representations and warranties reserve:

Foreclosure Documentation

Compared to the high volume servicers, we service a relatively low volume of residential mortgage foreclosures. We have reviewed our residential foreclosure process. We have not found evidence of financial injury to any borrowers from any foreclosure by the Bank that should not have proceeded. We have and are continuing to strengthen our processes and controls to ensure that our foreclosure processes do not have the deficiencies identified in the interagency review of foreclosure policies and procedures dated April 2011, of 14 federally regulated mortgage servicers.

Compliance Risk

Financial institutions are subject to a multitude of laws, rules, and regulations emanating at both the federal and state levels. These broad-based mandates include, but are not limited to, expectations on anti-money laundering, lending limits, client privacy, fair lending, community reinvestment, and other important areas. Recently, the volume and complexity of regulatory changes have added to the overall compliance risk. We have invested in various resources to help ensure we meet expectations, and we have a team of compliance experts dedicated to ensuring our conformance. We require training for our colleagues for several broad-based laws and regulations. For example, all of our colleagues are expected to pass courses on anti-money laundering and customer privacy. Those colleagues who are engaged in lending activities must also take training related to flood disaster protection, equal credit opportunity, fair lending, and / or a variety of other courses related to the extension of credit. We set a high standard of expectation for adherence to compliance management and seek to continuously enhance our performance.

Capital

Both regulatory capital and shareholders’ equity are managed at the Bank and on a consolidated basis. We have an active program for managing capital and maintain a comprehensive process for assessing the Company’s overall capital adequacy. We believe our current levels of both regulatory capital and shareholders’ equity are adequate.

Regulatory Capital

BASEL III and the Dodd-Frank Act

In June 2012, the FRB, OCC, and FDIC (collectively, the Agencies) each issued NPRs that would revise and replace the Agencies’ current capital rules to align with the BASEL III capital standards and meet certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act. Certain requirements of the proposed NPRs would establish more restrictive capital definitions, higher risk-weightings for certain asset classes, capital buffers and higher minimum capital ratios.

The proposed revisions would include implementation of a new common equity Tier 1 minimum capital requirement and apply limits on a banking organization’s capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a specified amount of common equity Tier 1 capital in addition to the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements. The NPRs also would establish more conservative standards for including an instrument in regulatory capital. The revisions set forth in these NPRs are consistent with section 171 of the Dodd-Frank Act, which requires the Agencies to establish minimum risk-based and leverage capital requirements.

The Agencies are also proposing to revise their rules for calculating risk-weighted assets to enhance risk sensitivity and address weaknesses identified over recent years, including by incorporating aspects of the Basel II standardized framework in the “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework,” including subsequent amendments to that standard, and recent consultative papers from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The Standardized Approach NPR also includes alternatives to credit ratings, consistent with section 939A of the Dodd-Frank Act. The revisions include methodologies for determining risk-weighted assets for residential mortgages, securitization exposures, and counterparty credit risk. The Standardized Approach NPR also would introduce disclosure requirements that would apply to top-tier banking organizations domiciled in the United States with $50.0 billion or more in total assets, including us, and disclosures related to regulatory capital instruments.

 

52


Table of Contents

The proposed NPRs are in a comment period through September 7, 2012, and subject to further modification by the Agencies. We are currently evaluating the impact of the proposed NPRs on our regulatory capital ratios and estimate a reduction of approximately 150 basis points to our BASEL I Tier I common risk-based capital ratio based on our existing balance sheet composition. We anticipate that our capital ratios, on a BASEL III basis, would continue to exceed the well-capitalized minimum requirements.

Capital Planning

In connection with its increased focus on the adequacy of regulatory capital and risk management for larger financial institutions, in late 2011, the FRB finalized rules to require banks with assets over $50.0 billion to submit capital plans annually. Per the FRB’s rule, our submission included a comprehensive capital plan supported by an assessment of expected uses and sources of capital over a given planning time period under a range of expected and stress scenarios. We participated in the FRB’s CapPR process and made our capital plan submission in January 2012. On March 14, 2012, we announced that the FRB had completed its review of our capital plan submission and did not object to our proposed capital actions. The planned actions included the potential repurchase of up to $182.0 million of common stock and a continuation of our current common dividend through the 2013 first quarter. In 2012, we are transitioning into the FRB’s more rigorous CCAR process, which had previously been required of only the largest 19 bank holding companies. For additional discussion, refer to the Updates to Risk Factors section located in the Additional Disclosures section of this MD&A.

Capital Adequacy

The FRB establishes capital adequacy requirements, including well-capitalized standards for the Company. The OCC establishes similar capital adequacy requirements and standards for the Bank. Regulatory capital primarily consists of Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 2 risk-based capital. The sum of Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 2 risk-based capital equals our total risk-based capital.

Risk-based capital guidelines require a minimum level of capital as a percentage of “risk-weighted assets”. Risk-weighted assets consist of total assets plus certain off-balance sheet and market items, subject to adjustment for predefined credit risk factors. At June 30, 2012, both the Company and the Bank were well-capitalized under applicable regulatory capital adequacy guidelines.

Tier 1 common equity, a non-GAAP financial measure, is used by banking regulators, investors and analysts to assess and compare the quality and composition of our capital with the capital of other financial services companies. We use Tier 1 common equity, along with the other capital measures, to assess and monitor our capital position. Tier 1 common equity is defined as Tier 1 capital less elements of Tier 1 capital not in the form of common equity (e.g. perpetual preferred stock, noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries, and trust preferred capital debt securities).

The following table presents risk-weighted assets and other financial data necessary to calculate certain financial ratios, including the Tier 1 common equity ratio, which we use to measure capital adequacy:

These financial measures have been included as they are considered to be critical metrics with which to analyze and evaluate financial condition and capital strength. Other companies may calculate these financial measures differently.

Our Tier 1 common equity risk-based ratio improved 8 basis points to 10.08% at June 30, 2012 compared with 10.00% at December 31, 2011. This increase primarily reflected the combination of an increase in retained earnings and a reduction in the disallowed tax deferred asset, partially offset by an increase in risk-weighted assets, the redemption of $80.0 million in trust preferred securities, the repurchase of 6.4 million common shares, and the impacts related to the payments of dividends.

The decrease in our consolidated Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios compared with December 31, 2011, primarily reflected an increase in risk-weighted assets, the redemption of $80.0 million in trust preferred securities, the repurchase of 6.4 million common shares, and the impacts related to the payments of dividends, partially offset by an increase in retained earnings and a reduction in the disallowed deferred tax asset.

Shareholders’ Equity

We generate shareholders’ equity primarily through the retention of earnings, net of dividends. Other potential sources of shareholders’ equity include issuances of common and preferred stock. Our objective is to maintain capital at an amount commensurate with our risk profile and risk tolerance objectives, to meet both regulatory and market expectations, and to provide the flexibility needed for future growth and business opportunities. Shareholders’ equity totaled $5.6 billion at June 30, 2012, representing a $0.2 billion, or 4%, increase compared with December 31, 2011, primarily reflecting an increase in retained earnings.

Dividends

We consider disciplined capital management as a key objective, with dividends representing one component. Our strong capital ratios and expectations for continued earnings growth positions us to continue to actively explore additional capital management opportunities.

On July 19, 2012, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per common share, payable in October 2012. Cash dividends of $0.04 per common share were also declared on January 19, 2012 and April 18, 2012. Our 2012 capital plan to the FRB (see Capital Planning section above) included the continuation of our current common dividend through the 2013 first quarter.

On July 19, 2012, our board of directors also declared a quarterly cash dividend on our 8.50% Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock of $21.25 per share. The dividend is payable in October 2012. Cash dividends of $21.25 per share were also declared on January 19, 2012 and April 28, 2012.

On July 19, 2012, our board of directors also declared a quarterly cash dividend on our Floating Rate Series B Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock of approximately $7.89 per share. The dividend is payable in October 2012. Cash dividends of approximately $7.92 per share and approximately $8.18 per share were also declared on April 28, 2012 and January 19, 2012, respectively.

Share Repurchases

From time to time the Board authorizes the Company to repurchase shares of our common stock. Although we announce when the Board authorizes share repurchases, we typically do not give any public notice before we repurchase our shares. Future stock repurchases may be private or open-market repurchases, including block transactions, accelerated or delayed block transactions, forward transactions, and similar transactions. Various factors determine the amount and timing of our share repurchases, including our capital requirements, the number of shares we expect to issue for employee benefit plans and acquisitions, market conditions (including the trading price of our stock), and regulatory and legal considerations, including the FRB’s response to our capital plan.

Our board of directors have authorized a share repurchase program consistent with our capital plan. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, we repurchased 6.4 million common shares at a weighted average share price of $6.26.

BUSINESS SEGMENT DISCUSSION

Overview

We have four major business segments: Retail and Business Banking; Regional and Commercial Banking; Automobile Finance and Commercial Real Estate; and Wealth Advisors, Government Finance, and Home Lending. A Treasury / Other function also includes our insurance business and other unallocated assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. While this section reviews financial performance from a business segment perspective, it should be read in conjunction with the Discussion of Results of Operations, Note 18 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and other sections for a full understanding of our consolidated financial performance.

Business segment results are determined based upon our management reporting system, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each of the business segments. The process is designed around our organizational and management structure and, accordingly, the results derived are not necessarily comparable with similar information published by other financial institutions.

Optimal Customer Relationship (OCR)

Our OCR initiative is a cross-business segment strategy designed to increase overall customer profitability and retention by deepening product and service penetration to consumer and commercial customers. We believe this can be accomplished by taking our broad array of services and products and delivering them through a rigorous and disciplined sales management process that is consistent across all business segments and regions. It is also supported by robust sales and referral technology.

OCR was introduced in late 2009. Through 2010, much of the effort was spent on defining processes, sales training, and systems development to fully capture and measure OCR performance metrics. In 2011, we introduced OCR-related metrics for commercial relationships, which complements the previously disclosed consumer OCR-related metrics. In 2012, we are seeing the results in our revenue growth.

CONSUMER OCR PERFORMANCE

For consumer OCR performance, there are three key performance metrics: (1) the number of checking account households, (2) the number of services penetration per consumer checking account household, and (3) the revenue generated. Consumer households from all business segments are included.

The growth in consumer checking account number of households is a result of both new sales of checking accounts and improved retention of existing checking account households. The overall objective is to grow the number of households, along with an increase in product penetration.

We use the checking account since it typically represents the primary banking relationship product. We count additional products by type, not number of products. For example, a household that has one checking account and one mortgage, we count as having two services. A household with four checking accounts, we count as having one service. The household relationship utilizing four or more services is viewed to be more profitable and loyal. The overall objective, therefore, is to decrease the percentage of 1-3 services per consumer checking account household, while increasing the percentage of those with 4 or more services.

The following table presents consumer checking account household OCR metrics:

Our emphasis on cross-sell, coupled with customers increasingly being attracted by the benefits offered through our “Fair Play” banking philosophy with programs such as 24-Hour Grace® on overdrafts and Asterisk-Free Checking™, are having a positive effect. The percent of consumer households with over four products at the end of the 2012 second quarter was 76.0%, up from 73.5% at the end of last year. For the first six-month period of 2012, consumer checking account households grew at a 11.6% annualized rate and 12% for the full year. Total consumer checking account household revenue in the 2012 second quarter was $249.7 million, up $13.2 million, or 6%, from the 2012 first quarter. This was primarily driven by growth in households and noninterest income. Total consumer checking account household revenue was down $10.3 million, or 4%, from the year-ago quarter due to the Durbin amendment.

COMMERCIAL OCR PERFORMANCE

For commercial OCR performance, there are three key performance metrics: (1) the number of commercial relationships, (2) the number of services penetration per commercial relationship, and (3) the revenue generated. Commercial relationships include relationships from all business segments.

The growth in the number of commercial relationships is a result of both new sales of checking accounts and improved retention of existing commercial accounts. The overall objective is to grow the number of relationships, along with an increase in product service distribution.

The commercial relationship is defined as a business banking or commercial banking customer with a checking account relationship. We use this metric because we believe that the checking account anchors a business relationship and creates the opportunity to increase our cross-sell. Multiple sales of the same type of product are counted as one product, the same as consumer.

The following table presents commercial relationship OCR metrics:

By focusing on targeted relationships we are able to achieve higher product service distribution among our commercial relationships. Our expanded product offerings allow us to focus not only on the credit driven relationship, but leverage these relationships to generate a deeper share of wallet. The percent of commercial relationships utilizing over four products at the end of the 2012 second quarter was 32.6%, up from 26.7% from the prior year. For the first six-month period of 2012, commercial relationships grew at a 11.9% annualized rate. Total commercial relationship revenue in the 2012 second quarter was $189.2 million, up $19.5 million, or 11%, from the 2012 first quarter, and up $22.6 million, or 14%, higher than the year-ago quarter. This was primarily driven by capital markets activities.

Revenue Sharing

Revenue is recorded in the business segment responsible for the related product or service. Fee sharing is recorded to allocate portions of such revenue to other business segments involved in selling to, or providing service to, customers. Results of operations for the business segments reflect these fee sharing allocations.

Expense Allocation

The management accounting process that develops the business segment reporting utilizes various estimates and allocation methodologies to measure the performance of the business segments. Expenses are allocated to business segments using a two-phase approach. The first phase consists of measuring and assigning unit costs (activity-based costs) to activities related to product origination and servicing. These activity-based costs are then extended, based on volumes, with the resulting amount allocated to business segments that own the related products. The second phase consists of the allocation of overhead costs to all four business segments from Treasury / Other. We utilize a full-allocation methodology, where all Treasury / Other expenses, except those related to our insurance business, reported Significant Items (except for the goodwill impairment), and a small amount of other residual unallocated expenses, are allocated to the four business segments.

Funds Transfer Pricing (FTP)

We use an active and centralized FTP methodology to attribute appropriate net interest income to the business segments. The intent of the FTP methodology is to eliminate all interest rate risk from the business segments by providing matched duration funding of assets and liabilities. The result is to centralize the financial impact, management, and reporting of interest rate and liquidity risk in the Treasury / Other function where it can be centrally monitored and managed. The Treasury / Other function charges (credits) an internal cost of funds for assets held in (or pays for funding provided by) each business segment. The FTP rate is based on prevailing market interest rates for comparable duration assets (or liabilities), and includes an estimate for the cost of liquidity (liquidity premium). Deposits of an indeterminate maturity receive an FTP credit based on a combination of vintage-based average lives and replicating portfolio pool rates. Other assets, liabilities, and capital are charged (credited) with a four-year moving average FTP rate. The denominator in the net interest margin calculation has been modified to add the amount of net funds provided by each business segment for all periods presented.

Treasury / Other

The Treasury / Other function includes revenue and expense related to our insurance business, and assets, liabilities, and equity not directly assigned or allocated to one of the four business segments. Other assets include investment securities and bank owned life insurance. The financial impact associated with our FTP methodology, as described above, is also included.

Net interest income includes the impact of administering our investment securities portfolios and the net impact of derivatives used to hedge interest rate sensitivity. Noninterest income includes insurance income, miscellaneous fee income not allocated to other business segments, such as bank owned life insurance income and any investment security and trading asset gains or losses. Noninterest expense includes any insurance-related expenses, as well as certain corporate administrative, merger, and other miscellaneous expenses not allocated to other business segments. The provision for income taxes for the business segments is calculated at a statutory 35% tax rate, though our overall effective tax rate is lower. As a result, Treasury / Other reflects a credit for income taxes representing the difference between the lower actual effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate used to allocate income taxes to the business segments.

Net Income by Business Segment

We reported net income of $306.0 million during the first six-month period of 2012. This compared with net income of $272.4 million during the first six-month period of 2011. The segregation of net income by business segment for the first six-month period of 2012 and 2011 is presented in the following table:

2012 First Six Months vs. 2011 First Six Months

Retail and Business Banking reported net income of $58.4 million in the first six-month period of 2012. This was a decrease of $43.5 million, or 43%, when compared to the year-ago period.

Results for the first half of the year were negatively impacted by the Durbin Amendment of the Dodd-Frank Act, which drove a net $21.5 million reduction in debit card income. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $11.3 million or 13% as a direct result of a 12.5% increase in the number of households. Demand deposit balances increased materially when compared to the year-ago period, including a 25% increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Money market deposits were down 8% and core certificate of deposits were down 20% compared to the year-ago period due to a focus on deposit mix and funding margin management. Household growth continued to outperform expectations with marketing expenses marginally down compared to prior year. Finally, average portfolio loan balances were up 7% over the same period prior year, with a 12 basis point increase in the portfolio spread.

The decrease in net income reflected a combination of factors including:

 

   

$30.1 million, or 6%, decrease in net interest income.

 

   

$6.5 million, or 11%, increase in the provision for credit losses.

 

   

$13.8 million, or 7%, decrease in noninterest income.

 

   

$16.5 million, or 4%, increase in noninterest expense.

The decrease in net interest income from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

$8.0 million of lower equity funding related to lower rate environment.

 

   

21 basis points decrease in deposit spread resulted in a $39.8 million reduction in net interest income.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$11.1 million, or 13%, increase in deposit service charge income due to strong household and account growth in the checking portfolio.

 

   

$4.7 million, or 46%, increase in mortgage banking income due to higher loan originations.

$14.3 million, or 10%, increase in personnel costs related to the addition of 41 Giant Eagle In-Stores.

 

   

$2.2 million, or 1%, increase in other expenses, principally the result of a $28.2 million increase in indirect product expense allocations, partially offset by $24.1 million lower FDIC insurance expense and $2.1 million lower expense for the amortization of intangibles.

2012 First Six Months vs. 2011 First Six Months

Regional and Commercial Banking reported net income of $41.8 million for the first six-month period of 2012. This was a decrease of $9.0 million, or 18%, compared to the year-ago period. The increase in provision expense was impacted by a combination of significant loan growth and reserves allocated to new and specialty lines of business including Healthcare, Energy, Asset-Based Lending and Equipment Finance.

The Optimal Customer Relationship (OCR) initiative, which includes robust customer relationship planning, a referral tracking system, and new customer relationship management system, resulted in a 19% increase in loan originations in the first six-month period of 2012 compared to the year-ago period. The increase in originations during the current period reflected the strategic decision to enter the syndications line of business further enhancing our Large Corporate and Middle Market capabilities, as well as our continued development of our vertical strategies. Additionally, the Commercial Relationship Manager sales teams were focused on the importance of deposit relationships, as well as partnering with Treasury Management to deliver customer-focused liquidity management solutions.

The decrease in net income reflected a combination of factors including:

 

   

$30.2 million, or 406%, increase in the provision for credit losses, primarily due to loan growth and reserves allocated to new and specialty lines of business.

 

   

$5.1 million, or 6%, increase in noninterest expense, due to our strategic initiatives investments.

Offset by:

 

   

$14.7 million, or 12%, increase in net interest income.

 

   

$6.7 million, or 11%, increase in noninterest income.

2012 First Six Months vs. 2011 First Six Months

AFCRE reported net income of $124.8 million in the first six-month period of 2012. This was an increase of $39.3 million when compared to the year-ago period.

Results for the current year continued to be positively impacted by lower provision for credit losses resulting from reductions in required reserve levels, as the underlying credit quality of the loan portfolios improved and stabilized. Also contributing to the increase in net income was the $1.3 billion auto loan securitization completed in March 2012 that resulted in a $23.0 million gain. The net interest margin continues to improve, reflecting adherence to our risk-based pricing disciplines. Overall, loan balances have declined compared to a year ago as a result of auto loan securitization activities, as well as the continued planned reduction of our CRE portfolio. Indirect auto loan production levels remain strong with originations through the first six months of 2012 totaling a record $2.1 billion, up from $1.8 billion in the year ago period.

The increase in net income primarily reflected a combination of factors including:

 

   

$37.0 million, or 368%, decline in the provision for credit losses.

 

   

$15.5 million, or 52%, increase in noninterest income.

 

   

$7.9 million, or 9%, decrease in noninterest expense.

 

65


Table of Contents

Net interest income was relatively flat from the year-ago period and reflected:

 

   

16 basis point increase in the net interest margin. This increase primarily reflected the continuation of a risk-based pricing strategy in the CRE portfolio that began in early 2009 and has resulted in improved spreads on CRE loan renewals, as well as new business originated.

Offset by:

 

   

$1.1 billion, or 18%, decrease in the average consumer automobile portfolio. This decrease resulted from the $1.0 billion auto loan securitization completed in the 2011 third quarter, as well as the $1.3 billion auto loan securitization completed in the 2012 first quarter.

 

   

$0.4 billion, or 6%, decrease in our average commercial portfolio. This decrease primarily reflected a $0.6 billion decrease in CRE loans offset, in part, by a $0.2 billion increase in automobile floor plan loans. The decline in CRE loans continued to reflect our managed reduction of this overall exposure, particularly in the noncore portfolio.

The increase in total average deposits from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

$60.0 million, or 8%, increase in average core deposits reflecting our commitment to strengthening relationships with core customers and prospects, as well as new commercial automobile dealer relationships.

The reduction in provision for credit losses from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

$45.8 million, or 48%, decrease in commercial NCOs. Expressed as a percentage of related average balances, commercial NCO’s decreased to 1.43% in the first six-month period of 2012 from 2.62% in the year-ago period.

 

   

$3.4 million, or 48%, decrease in indirect automobile-related NCOs. As a percentage of related average balances, indirect automobile-related NCO’s were 0.15% in the first six-month period of 2012 compared to 0.24% in the year-ago period. These relatively lower charge-off levels reflect our consistent focus on high credit quality of originations combined with a continued strong resale market for used vehicles.

 

   

A reduction in required reserve levels, primarily due to lower levels of commercial NALs which totaled $211 million at June 30, 2012, down 28% compared to June 30, 2011.

The increase in noninterest income from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

The $23.0 million gain on the securitization and sale of $1.3 billion of indirect auto loans during the 2012 first quarter.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$9.5 million, or 59%, decrease in operating lease income resulting from the continued runoff of that portfolio, as we exited that business at the end of 2008.

The decrease in noninterest expense from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

$7.2 million, or 59%, decrease in operating lease expense resulting from the continued runoff of that portfolio.

 

   

$2.4 million decrease in legal and other outside service expense resulting from a decrease in collection related activities, as well as increased cost deferrals associated with origination activities.

 

   

$1.9 million, or 13%, decrease in personnel costs, which primarily related to higher origination related cost deferrals resulting from increased loan origination activities.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$3.9 million increase in allocated costs, primarily FDIC insurance.

2012 First Six Months vs. 2011 First Six Months

WGH reported net income of $40.9 million in the first six-month period of 2012. This was an increase of $23.5 million, or 134%, when compared to the year-ago period.

The improved results for 2012 were largely driven by an increase in mortgage banking revenue attributable to increased mortgage loan originations and the positive impact of net MSR hedge activity. Growth in loan and deposit balances was also very strong, as average loan balances increased 14% and average deposit balances increased 29%, with core deposits increasing by 44%. In the wealth management group, brokerage income declined $3.3 million, or 13%, from the prior quarter as a result of a reduction in annuity product sales partially offset by an increase in sales of market-linked certificates of deposit. Trust and asset management income was down slightly from the first six months of 2011, although total trust assets increased to $63.5 billion. Much of the trust asset growth was in corporate trust, where revenues are tied closely to trust asset values.

The increase in net income reflected a combination of factors including:

 

   

$35.4 million, or 27%, increase in noninterest income.

 

   

$14.0 million, or 47%, decrease in the provision for credit losses.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$12.2 million, or 7%, increase in noninterest expense.

 

   

$1.0 million, or 1%, decrease in net interest income.

 

67


Table of Contents

The decrease in net interest income from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

36 basis point decrease in the net interest margin mainly due to compressed deposit margins resulting from declining rates and reduced funds transfer pricing rates on collateralized and shorter-term deposits.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$0.7 billion, or 14%, increase in average total loans and leases.

 

   

$2.2 billion, or 29%, increase in average total deposits.

The increase in total average loans and leases from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

$0.7 billion, or 20%, increase in the residential mortgage portfolio driven by historically low interest rates.

The increase in average total deposits from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

$1.7 billion increase in short-term commercial deposits.

 

   

$0.3 billion increase in deposits generated through the wealth management group.

The increase in noninterest income from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

$33.4 million, or 97%, increase in mortgage banking income due to an increase in mortgage loan originations and the positive impact of net MSR hedge activity.

 

   

$3.7 million, or 131%, increase in other noninterest income due primarily to a gain on sale of certain Low Income Housing Tax Credit investments.

Partially offset by:

 

   

$3.3 million, or 13%, decrease in brokerage income due to a decrease in annuity product sales partially offset by an increase in sales of market-linked certificates of deposit.

The increase in noninterest expense from the year-ago period reflected:

 

   

$7.0 million, or 7%, increase in personnel costs, which reflected higher sales commissions and loan origination costs primarily related to the increased mortgage origination volume.

 

   

$5.2 million, or 7%, increase in other expenses, primarily due to loan system conversion costs, increased mortgage volume, and increase in allocated costs.

ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES

Forward-Looking Statements

This report, including MD&A, contains certain forward-looking statements, including certain plans, expectations, goals, projections, and statements, which are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. Statements that do not describe historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as expect, anticipate, believe, intend, estimate, plan, target, goal, or similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as will, may, might, should, would, could, or similar variations. The forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

While there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, below are certain factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in the forward-looking statements: (1) worsening of credit quality performance due to a number of factors such as the underlying value of collateral that could prove less valuable than otherwise assumed and assumed cash flows may be worse than expected; (2) changes in economic conditions, including impacts from the continuing economic uncertainty in the US, the European Union, and other areas; (3) movements in interest rates; (4) competitive pressures on product pricing and services; (5) success, impact, and timing of our business strategies, including market acceptance of any new products or services introduced to implement our “Fair Play” banking philosophy; (6) changes in accounting policies and principles and the accuracy of our assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements; (7) extended disruption of vital infrastructure; (8) the final outcome of significant litigation; (9) the nature, extent, timing and results of governmental actions, examinations, reviews, reforms, and regulations including those related to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; and (10) the outcome of judicial and regulatory decisions regarding practices in the residential mortgage industry, including among other things the processes followed for foreclosing residential mortgages. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and documents subsequently filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based on information available at that time. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by federal securities laws. As forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance on such statements.

Non-Regulatory Capital Ratios

In addition to capital ratios defined by banking regulators, the Company considers various other measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy, including:

 

  Tangible common equity to tangible assets,

 

  Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets using Basel I and Basel III definitions, and

 

  Tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets using Basel I definition.

These non-regulatory capital ratios are viewed by management as useful additional methods of reflecting the level of capital available to withstand unexpected market conditions. Additionally, presentation of these ratios allows readers to compare the Company’s capitalization to other financial services companies. These ratios differ from capital ratios defined by banking regulators principally in that the numerator excludes preferred securities, the nature and extent of which varies among different financial services companies. These ratios are not defined in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) or federal banking regulations. As a result, these non-regulatory capital ratios disclosed by the Company may be considered non-GAAP financial measures.

Because there are no standardized definitions for these non-regulatory capital ratios, the Company’s calculation methods may differ from those used by other financial services companies. Also, there may be limits in the usefulness of these measures to investors. As a result, the Company encourages readers to consider the consolidated financial statements and other financial information contained in this Form 10-Q in their entirety, and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Risk Factors

Information on risk is discussed in the Risk Factors section included in Item 1A of our 2011 Form 10-K. Additional information regarding risk factors can also be found in the Risk Management and Capital discussion of this report.

Updates to Risk Factors

Bank regulators and other regulations, including proposed Basel capital standards and Federal Reserve guidelines, may require higher capital levels, impacting our ability to pay common stock dividends or repurchase our common stock.

In June 2012, the FRB, OCC, and FDIC (collectively, the Agencies) issued three Notices of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRs) that would revise and replace the Agencies’ current capital rules to align with the BASEL III capital standards and meet certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act. Certain requirements of the proposed NPRs would establish more restrictive capital definitions, higher risk-weightings for certain asset classes, capital buffers and higher minimum capital ratios. The proposed NPRs are in a comment period through September 7, 2012, and subject to further modification by the Agencies. See the Capital section within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

In 2011, the Federal Reserve issued guidelines for evaluating proposals by certain bank holding companies, including Huntington, to undertake capital actions in 2012, such as increasing dividend payments or repurchasing or redeeming stock. This process is known as the Federal Reserve’s Capital Plan Review. Pursuant to those Federal Reserve guidelines, Huntington submitted its proposed capital plan to the Federal Reserve in January 2012. On March 14, 2012, we were notified by the Federal Reserve that it had not objected to our proposed capital actions included in our capital plan. These actions included the potential repurchase of up to $182 million of common stock and a continuation of our current common dividend through the first quarter of 2013.

The Federal Reserve is expected to undertake these capital plan reviews on a regular basis in the future. There can be no assurance that the Federal Reserve will respond favorably to our capital plan as part of their future capital plan reviews, and the Federal Reserve or other regulatory capital requirements may limit or otherwise restrict how we utilize our capital, including common stock dividends and stock repurchases. Although not currently anticipated, our regulators may require us to raise additional capital in the future. Issuing additional common stock may dilute existing stockholders.

The Federal Reserve has issued a proposed rule that, in addition to the broader Basel III capital reforms, will implement the application of the Federal Reserve’s capital plans rule, including the requirement to maintain capital above 5% Tier 1 Common risk-based capital ratio under both expected and stressed conditions.

The resolution of significant pending litigation, if unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for a particular period.

We face legal risks in our businesses, and the volume of claims and amount of damages and penalties claimed in litigation and regulatory proceedings against financial institutions remain high. Substantial legal liability against us could have material adverse financial effects or cause significant reputational harm to us, which in turn could seriously harm our business prospects. It is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the results of operations for a particular reporting period.

Note 16 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements updates the status of litigation concerning Cyberco Holdings, Inc. Although the bank maintains litigation reserves related to this case, the ultimate resolution of the matter, if unfavorable, may be material to our results of operations for a particular reporting period. (For further discussion, see Note 16 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Significant Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to establish critical accounting policies and make accounting estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect amounts recorded and reported in our financial statements. Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2011 Form 10-K as supplemented by this report lists significant accounting policies we use in the development and presentation of our financial statements. This MD&A, the significant accounting policies, and other financial statement disclosures identify and address key variables and other qualitative and quantitative factors necessary for an understanding and evaluation of our company, financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

An accounting estimate requires assumptions about uncertain matters that could have a material effect on the financial statements if a different amount within a range of estimates were used or if estimates changed from period to period. Estimates are made under facts and circumstances at a point in time, and changes in those facts and circumstances could produce results that significantly differ from when those estimates were made.

Our most significant accounting estimates relate to our ACL, income taxes and deferred tax assets, and fair value measurements of investment securities, goodwill, pension, and other real estate owned. These significant accounting estimates and their related application are discussed in our 2011 Form 10-K.

Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value inherently result in a higher degree of financial statement volatility. We estimate the fair value of a financial instrument using a variety of valuation methods. Where financial instruments are actively traded and have quoted market prices, quoted market prices are used for fair value. We characterize active markets as those where transaction volumes are sufficient to provide objective pricing information, with reasonably narrow bid/ask spreads, and where received quoted prices do not vary widely. When the financial instruments are not actively traded, other observable market inputs, such as quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, may be used, if available, to determine fair value. Inactive markets are characterized by low transaction volumes, price quotations that vary substantially among market participants, or in which minimal information is released publicly. When observable market prices do not exist, we estimate fair value primarily by using cash flow and other financial modeling methods. Our valuation methods consider factors such as liquidity and concentration concerns and, for the derivatives portfolio, counterparty credit risk. Other factors such as model assumptions, market dislocations, and unexpected correlations can affect estimates of fair value. Changes in these underlying factors, assumptions, or estimates in any of these areas could materially impact the amount of revenue or loss recorded.

The FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of financial instruments that considers the attributes specific to particular assets or liabilities and establishes a three-level hierarchy for determining fair value based on the transparency of inputs to each valuation as of the fair value measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

   

Level 2 – inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices of identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

   

Level 3 – inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

At the end of each quarter, we assess the valuation hierarchy for each asset or liability measured. As necessary, assets or liabilities may be transferred within hierarchy levels due to changes in availability of observable market inputs at the measurement date. The fair values measured at each level of the fair value hierarchy, as well as additional discussion regarding fair value measurements, can be found in Note 13 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Below is a brief description of how fair value is determined for categories that have unobservable inputs.

Available-for-sale securities

Consist of certain asset-backed securities, pooled-trust-preferred securities, private-label CMOs, and municipal securities for which fair value is estimated. Assumptions used to determine the fair value of these securities have greater subjectivity due to the lack of observable market transactions. Generally, there are only limited trades of similar instruments and a discounted cash flow approach is used to determine fair value.

MSRs

MSRs do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. Although sales of MSRs do occur, the precise terms and conditions typically are not readily available. Fair value is determined on an income approach model based upon month-end interest rate curve and prepayment assumptions.

Automobile loans

Effective January 1, 2010, we consolidated an automobile loan securitization that previously had been accounted for as an off-balance sheet transaction. We elected to account for the automobile loan receivables and the associated notes payable at fair value per guidance supplied in ASC 825, “Financial Instruments”.

 

71


Table of Contents

The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the automobile loan receivables included a projection of expected losses and prepayment of the underlying loans in the portfolio and a market assumption of interest rate spreads. Certain interest rates are available from similarly traded securities while other interest rates are developed internally based on similar asset-backed security transactions in the market. The associated notes payable are valued based upon interest rates for similar financial instruments.

Business Combinations

On March 30, 2012, Huntington acquired the loans, deposits, and certain other assets and liabilities of Fidelity Bank located in Dearborn, Michigan from the FDIC. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations”.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Developments

Note 2 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements discusses new accounting pronouncements adopted during 2012 and the expected impact of accounting pronouncements recently issued but not yet required to be adopted. To the extent the adoption of new accounting standards materially affect financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity, the impacts are discussed in the applicable section of this MD&A and the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Huntington reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals which are, in the opinion of Management, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, the results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the SEC and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted. The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in Huntington’s 2011 Form 10-K, which include descriptions of significant accounting policies, as updated by the information contained in this report, should be read in conjunction with these interim financial statements.

For statement of cash flows purposes, cash and cash equivalents are defined as the sum of “Cash and due from banks” which includes amounts on deposit with the Federal Reserve and “Federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements.”

In conjunction with applicable accounting standards, all material subsequent events have been either recognized in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosed in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATE

ASU 2011-04 — Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The ASU amends Topic 820 to add both additional clarifications to existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and changes to existing principles and disclosure guidance. Clarifications were made to the relevancy of the highest and best use valuation concept, measurement of an instrument classified in an entity’s shareholders’ equity and disclosure of quantitative information about the unobservable inputs for level 3 fair value measurements. Changes to existing principles and disclosures included measurement of financial instruments managed within a portfolio, the application of premiums and discounts in fair value measurement, and additional disclosures related to fair value measurements. The updated guidance and requirements are effective for financial statements issued for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2011, and should be applied prospectively (See Note 13). The amendments did not have a material impact on Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2011-05 — Other Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The ASU amends Topic 220 to require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. An entity is also required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The amendments do not change items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income, only the format for presentation. The updated guidance and requirements are effective for financial statements issued for the fiscal years, and the interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The amendments should be applied retrospectively. On October 21, 2011, the FASB exposed a proposed deferral of the requirement that companies present reclassification adjustments for each component of OCI in both net income and OCI on the face of the financial statements. See the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The amendment did not have a material impact on Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2011-10 — Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Derecognition of In-Substance Real Estate. The ASU amends Topic 360 to clarify that when a reporting entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest (as described in ASC 810 “Consolidation”) in a subsidiary that is in-substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary’s nonrecourse debt, the reporting entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 360-20 to determine whether it should derecognize the in-substance real estate. The clarification is meant to eliminate diversity in practice. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the guidance on Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2011-11 — Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The ASU amends Topic 210 by requiring additional improved information to be disclosed regarding financial instruments and derivative instruments that are offset in accordance with the conditions under ASC 210-20-45 or ASC 810-10-45 or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The disclosures required by the amendments should be applied retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. Management does not believe the amendments will have a material impact on Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. LOANS / LEASES AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

Loans and leases for which Huntington has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future (at least 12 months), or until maturity or payoff, are classified in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as loans and leases. Except for loans which are subject to fair value requirements, loans and leases are carried at the principal amount outstanding, net of unamortized deferred loan origination fees and costs and net of unearned income. At June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, the aggregate amount of these net unamortized deferred loan origination fees and costs and net unearned income was $294.3 million and $122.5 million, respectively.

Loan and Lease Portfolio Composition

The following table provides a detailed listing of Huntington’s loan and lease portfolio at June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011:

Fidelity Bank acquisition

(See Note 19 for additional information regarding the Fidelity Bank acquisition).

On March 30, 2012, Huntington acquired the loans of Fidelity Bank located in Dearborn, Michigan from the FDIC. Under the agreement, approximately $520.6 million of loans were transferred to Huntington. These loans were recorded at fair value in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations”. The fair values for the loans were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms (Level 3), and reflected an estimate of probable losses and the credit risk associated with the loans.

Loans Acquired With Deteriorated Credit Quality

ASC 310-30, “Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer”, provides guidance for accounting for acquired loans that have experienced a deterioration of credit quality at the time of acquisition for which it is probable that the investor will be unable to collect all contractually required payments. Based on the timing of the Fidelity Bank acquisition occurring on the last business day of the 2012 first quarter, the assessment to determine if any of these loans were acquired with deteriorated credit quality in accordance with ASC 310-30 was not completed until the 2012 second quarter.

The excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the initial investment in the loan is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loan, or pool of loans, in situations where there is a reasonable expectation about the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected. The difference between the contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition, considering the impact of prepayments, is referred to as the nonaccretable difference. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in an increase to the allowance for loan and lease losses. Subsequent increases in cash flows result in reversal of any nonaccretable difference (or allowance for loan and lease losses to the extent any has been recorded) with a positive impact on interest income. The measurement of undiscounted cash flows involves assumptions and judgments for credit risk, interest rate risk, prepayment risk, default rates, loss severity, payment speeds, and collateral values. All of these factors are inherently subjective and significant changes in the cash flow estimates over the life of the loan can result.

The following table reflects the contractually required payments receivable, cash flows expected to be collected, and fair value of the loans at the acquisition date of March 30, 2012:

 

(in thousands)

      

Contractually required payments including interest

   $ 348,547

     (119,011

Less: accretable yield

     (27,586
  

 

 

 

Fair value of loans acquired

   $ 201,950  
  

 

 

 

The fair values for loans were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, including prepayment assumptions and using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms (Level 3). This value was reduced by an estimate of probable losses and the credit risk associated with the loans.

The following table presents a rollforward of the accretable yield from the beginning of the period to the end of the period:

 

    Three Months Ended June 30,     Six Months Ended June 30,

At June 30, 2012, there was no allowance for loan losses recorded on the purchased impaired loan portfolio and no adjustment to either the accretable or nonaccretable yield was required. The following table reflects the outstanding balance of all contractually required payments and carrying amounts of the acquired loans at June 30, 2012:

NALs and Past Due Loans

Loans are considered past due when the contractual amounts due with respect to principal and interest are not received within 30 days of the contractual due date.

Any loan in any portfolio may be placed on nonaccrual status prior to the policies described below when collection of principal or interest is in doubt.

All classes within the C&I and CRE portfolios are placed on nonaccrual status at 90-days past due. Residential mortgage loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 150-days past due, with the exception of residential mortgages guaranteed by government organizations which continue to accrue interest. First-lien home equity loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 150-days past due. Junior-lien home equity loans are placed on nonaccrual status at the earlier of 120-days past due or when the related first-lien loan has been identified as nonaccrual. Automobile and other consumer loans are not placed on nonaccrual status, but are generally charged-off when the loan is 120-days past due. For all classes within all loan portfolios, when a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any accrued interest income is reversed with current year accruals charged to interest income, and prior year amounts charged-off as a credit loss.

For all classes within all loan portfolios, cash receipts received on NALs are applied entirely against principal until the loan or lease has been collected in full, after which time any additional cash receipts are recognized as interest income.

Regarding all classes within the C&I and CRE portfolios, the determination of a borrower’s ability to make the required principal and interest payments is based on an examination of the borrower’s current financial statements, industry, management capabilities, and other qualitative measures. For all classes within the consumer loan portfolio, the determination of a borrower’s ability to make the required principal and interest payments is based on multiple factors, including number of days past due and, in some instances, an evaluation of the borrower’s financial condition. When, in Management’s judgment, the borrower’s ability to make required principal and interest payments resumes and collectability is no longer in doubt, the loan or lease is returned to accrual status. For these loans that have been returned to accrual status, cash receipts are applied according to the contractual terms of the loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Huntington maintains two reserves, both of which reflect Management’s judgment regarding the appropriate level necessary to absorb credit losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio: the ALLL and the AULC. Combined, these reserves comprise the total ACL. The determination of the ACL requires significant estimates, including the timing and amounts of expected future cash flows on impaired loans and leases, consideration of current economic conditions, and historical loss experience pertaining to pools of homogeneous loans and leases, all of which may be susceptible to change.

The appropriateness of the ACL is based on Management’s current judgments about the credit quality of the loan portfolio. These judgments consider on-going evaluations of the loan and lease portfolio, including such factors as the differing economic risks associated with each loan category, the financial condition of specific borrowers, the level of delinquent loans, the value of any collateral and, where applicable, the existence of any guarantees or other documented support. Further, Management evaluates the impact of changes in interest rates and overall economic conditions on the ability of borrowers to meet their financial obligations when quantifying our exposure to credit losses and assessing the appropriateness of our ACL at each reporting date. In addition to general economic conditions and the other factors described above, additional factors also considered include: the impact of declining residential real estate values; the diversification of CRE loans; the development of new or expanded Commercial business segments such as Healthcare, Asset Based Lending, and Energy, and the overall condition of the manufacturing industry. Also, the ACL assessment includes the on-going assessment of credit quality metrics, and a comparison of certain ACL benchmarks to current performance. Management’s determinations regarding the appropriateness of the ACL are reviewed and approved by the Company’s board of directors.

The ALLL consists of two components: (1) the transaction reserve, which includes a loan level allocation under ASC 310-10, specific reserves related to loans considered to be impaired, and loans involved in troubled debt restructurings allocated under ASC 310-40, and (2) the general reserve. The transaction reserve component includes both (1) an estimate of loss based on pools of commercial and consumer loans and leases with similar characteristics and (2) an estimate of loss based on an impairment review of each impaired C&I and CRE loan greater than $1.0 million. For the C&I and CRE portfolios, the estimate of loss based on pools of loans and leases with similar characteristics is made by applying a PD factor and a LGD factor to each individual loan based on a continuously updated loan grade, using a standardized loan grading system. The PD factor and an LGD factor are determined for each loan grade using statistical models based on historical performance data. The PD factor considers on-going reviews of the financial performance of the specific borrower, including cash flow, debt-service coverage ratio, earnings power, debt level, and equity position, in conjunction with an assessment of the borrower’s industry and future prospects. The LGD factor considers analysis of the type of collateral and the relative LTV ratio. These reserve factors are developed based on credit migration models that track historical movements of loans between loan ratings over time and a combination of long-term average loss experience of our own portfolio and external industry data using a 24-month emergence period.

In the case of more homogeneous portfolios, such as automobile loans, home equity loans, and residential mortgage loans, the determination of the transaction reserve also incorporates PD and LGD factors, however, the estimate of loss is based on pools of loans and leases with similar characteristics. The PD factor considers current credit scores unless the account is delinquent, in which case a higher PD factor is used. The credit score provides a basis for understanding the borrowers past and current payment performance, and this information is used to estimate expected losses over the 12-month emergence period. The performance of first-lien loans ahead of our junior-lien loans is available to use as part of our updated score process. The LGD factor considers analysis of the type of collateral and the relative LTV ratio. Credit scores, models, analyses, and other factors used to determine both the PD and LGD factors are updated frequently to capture the recent behavioral characteristics of the subject portfolios, as well as any changes in loss mitigation or credit origination strategies, and adjustments to the reserve factors are made as needed.

The general reserve consists of the economic reserve and risk-profile reserve components. The economic reserve component considers the potential impact of changing market and economic conditions on portfolio performance. The risk-profile component considers items unique to our structure, policies, processes, and portfolio composition, as well as qualitative measurements and assessments of the loan portfolios including, but not limited to, management quality, concentrations, portfolio composition, industry comparisons, and internal review functions.

The estimate for the AULC is determined using the same procedures and methodologies as used for the ALLL. The loss factors used in the AULC are the same as the loss factors used in the ALLL while also considering a historical utilization of unused commitments. The AULC is reflected in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The ACL is increased through a provision for credit losses that is charged to earnings, based on Management’s quarterly evaluation of the factors previously mentioned, and is reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries, and the ACL associated with securitized or sold loans. Management did not substantially change any material aspect of the overall approach in the determination of either the ALLL or AULC, and there were no material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques compared with prior periods that impacted the determination of the current period’s ALLL and AULC.

Any loan in any portfolio may be charged-off prior to the policies described below if a loss confirming event has occurred. Loss confirming events include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy (unsecured), continued delinquency, foreclosure, or receipt of an asset valuation indicating a collateral deficiency and that asset is the sole source of repayment.

C&I and CRE loans are either charged-off or written down to net realizable value at 90-days past due. Automobile loans and other consumer loans are charged-off at 120-days past due. First-lien and junior-lien home equity loans are charged-off to the estimated fair value of the collateral, less anticipated selling costs, at 150-days past due and 120-days past due, respectively. Residential mortgages are charged-off to the estimated fair value of the collateral, less anticipated selling costs, at 150-days past due.

Credit Quality Indicators

To facilitate the monitoring of credit quality for C&I and CRE loans, and for purposes of determining an appropriate ACL level for these loans, Huntington utilizes the following categories of credit grades:

Pass = Higher quality loans that do not fit any of the other categories described below.

OLEM = Potentially weak loans. The credit risk may be relatively minor yet represent a risk given certain specific circumstances. If the potential weaknesses are not monitored or mitigated, the loan may weaken or inadequately protect Huntington’s position in the future.

Substandard = Inadequately protected loans by the borrower’s ability to repay, equity, and/or the collateral pledged to secure the loan. These loans have identified weaknesses that could hinder normal repayment or collection of the debt. It is likely Huntington will sustain some loss if any identified weaknesses are not mitigated.

Doubtful = Loans that have all of the weaknesses inherent in those loans classified as Substandard, with the added elements of the full collection of the loan is improbable and that the possibility of loss is high.

The categories above, which are derived from standard regulatory rating definitions, are assigned upon initial approval of the loan or lease and subsequently updated as appropriate.

Commercial loans categorized as OLEM, Substandard, or Doubtful are considered Criticized loans. Commercial loans categorized as Substandard or Doubtful are also considered Classified loans.

For all classes within all consumer loan portfolios, each loan is assigned a specific PD factor that is generally based on the borrower’s most recent credit bureau score (FICO), which we update quarterly. A FICO credit bureau score is a credit score developed by Fair Isaac Corporation based on data provided by the credit bureaus. The FICO credit bureau score is widely accepted as the standard measure of consumer credit risk used by lenders, regulators, rating agencies, and consumers. The higher the FICO credit bureau score, the higher likelihood of repayment and therefore, an indicator of lower credit risk.

Impaired Loans

For all classes within the C&I and CRE portfolios, all loans with an outstanding balance of $1.0 million or greater are evaluated on a quarterly basis for impairment. Generally, consumer loans within any class are not individually evaluated on a regular basis for impairment. All TDRs, regardless of the outstanding balance amount, are also considered to be impaired. Also, loans acquired with evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination for which it is probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required payments will not be collected are also considered to be impaired.

Once a loan has been identified for an assessment of impairment, the loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. This determination requires significant judgment and use of estimates, and the eventual outcome may differ significantly from those estimates.

When a loan in any class has been determined to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. When the present value of expected future cash flows is used, the effective interest rate is the original contractual interest rate of the loan adjusted for any premium or discount. When the contractual interest rate is variable, the effective interest rate of the loan changes over time. A specific reserve is established as a component of the ALLL when a loan has been determined to be impaired. Subsequent to the initial measurement of impairment, if there is a significant change to the impaired loan’s expected future cash flows, or if actual cash flows are significantly different from the cash flows previously estimated, Huntington recalculates the impairment and appropriately adjusts the specific reserve. Similarly, if Huntington measures impairment based on the observable market price of an impaired loan or the fair value of the collateral of an impaired collateral dependent loan, Huntington will adjust the specific reserve.

When a loan within any class is impaired, the accrual of interest income is discontinued unless the receipt of principal and interest is no longer in doubt. Interest income on TDRs is accrued when all principal and interest is expected to be collected under the post-modification terms. Cash receipts received on nonaccruing impaired loans within any class are generally applied entirely against principal until the loan has been collected in full, after which time any additional cash receipts are recognized as interest income. Cash receipts received on accruing impaired loans within any class are applied in the same manner as accruing loans that are not considered impaired.

TDR Loans

TDRs are modified loans where a concession was provided to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. Loan modifications are considered TDRs when the concessions provided are not available to the borrower through either normal channels or other sources. However, not all loan modifications are TDRs.

TDR Concession Types

The Company’s standards relating to loan modifications consider, among other factors, minimum verified income requirements, cash flow analysis, and collateral valuations. Each potential loan modification is reviewed individually and the terms of the loan are modified to meet a borrower’s specific circumstances at a point in time. Commercial loan modifications, including those classified as TDRs, are reviewed and approved by our SAD. The types of concessions provided to borrowers include:

 

   

Interest rate reduction: A reduction of the stated interest rate to a nonmarket rate for the remaining original life of the debt.

 

   

Amortization or maturity date change beyond what the collateral supports, including any of the following:

 

  (1) Lengthens the amortization period of the amortized principal beyond market terms. This concession reduces the minimum monthly payment and increases the amount of the balloon payment at the end of the term of the loan. Principal is generally not forgiven.
  (2) Reduces the amount of loan principal to be amortized. This concession also reduces the minimum monthly payment and increases the amount of the balloon payment at the end of the term of the loan. Principal is generally not forgiven.
  (3) Extends the maturity date or dates of the debt beyond what the collateral supports. This concession generally applies to loans without a balloon payment at the end of the term of the loan.

 

   

Other: A concession that is not categorized as one of the concessions described above. These concessions include, but are not limited to: principal forgiveness, collateral concessions, covenant concessions, and reduction of accrued interest. Principal forgiveness may result from any TDR modification of any concession type. However, the aggregate amount of principal forgiven as a result of loans modified as TDRs during the three-month ended June 30, 2012, was not significant.

TDRs by Loan Type

Following is a description of TDRs by the different loan types:

Commercial loan TDRs – Commercial accruing TDRs often result from loans receiving a concession with terms that are not considered a market transaction to Huntington. The TDR remains in accruing status as long as the customer is less than 90-days past due on payments per the restructured loan terms and no loss is expected.

Commercial nonaccrual TDRs result from either: (1) an accruing commercial TDR being placed on nonaccrual status, or (2) a workout where an existing commercial NAL is restructured and a concession was given. At times, these workouts restructure the NAL so that two or more new notes are created. The primary note is underwritten based upon our normal underwriting standards and is sized so projected cash flows are sufficient to repay contractual principal and interest. The terms on the secondary note(s) vary by situation, and may include notes that defer principal and interest payments until after the primary note is repaid. Creating two or more notes often allows the borrower to continue a project or weather a temporary economic downturn and allows Huntington to right-size a loan based upon the current expectations for a borrower’s or project’s performance.

Our strategy involving TDR borrowers includes working with these borrowers to allow them to refinance elsewhere, as well as allow them time to improve their financial position and remain our customer through refinancing their notes according to market terms and conditions in the future. A refinancing or modification of a loan occurs when either the loan matures according to the terms of the TDR-modified agreement or the borrower requests a change to the loan agreements. At that time, the loan is evaluated to determine if it is creditworthy. It is subjected to the normal underwriting standards and processes for other similar credit extensions, both new and existing.

In accordance with ASC 310-20-35, the refinanced note is evaluated to determine if it is considered a new loan or a continuation of the prior loan. A new loan is considered for removal of the TDR designation, whereas a continuation of the prior note requires a continuation of the TDR designation. In order for a TDR designation to be removed, the borrower must no longer be experiencing financial difficulties and the terms of the refinanced loan must not represent a concession.

Table of Contents

Residential Mortgage loan TDRs – Residential mortgage TDRs represent loan modifications associated with traditional first-lien mortgage loans in which a concession has been provided to the borrower. The primary concessions given to residential mortgage borrowers are amortization or maturity date changes and interest rate reductions. Residential mortgages identified as TDRs involve borrowers unable to refinance their mortgages through the Company’s normal mortgage origination channels or through other independent sources. Some, but not all, of the loans may be delinquent.

Automobile, Home Equity, and Other Consumer loan TDRs – The Company may make similar interest rate, term, and principal concessions as with residential mortgage loan TDRs.

TDR Impact on Credit Quality

Huntington’s ALLL is largely driven by updated risk ratings assigned to commercial loans, updated borrower credit scores on consumer loans, and borrower delinquency history in both the commercial and consumer portfolios. These updated risk ratings and credit scores consider the default history of the borrower, including payment redefaults. As such, the provision for credit losses is impacted primarily by changes in borrower payment performance rather than the TDR classification. TDRs can be classified as either accrual or nonaccrual loans. Nonaccrual TDRs are included in NALs whereas accruing TDRs are excluded from NALs as it is probable that all contractual principal and interest due under the restructured terms will be collected.

TDR concessions and classification may reduce the ALLL within certain classes, specifically the C&I and CRE portfolios. The reduction is derived from the type of concessions given to the borrowers and the resulting application of the transaction reserve calculation within the ALLL. Our TDRs may include multiple concessions and the disclosure classifications are based on the primary concession provided to the borrower. The majority of our concessions for C&I and CRE loans during the period are situations in which we extended the maturity date which is normally coupled with an increase in the interest rate (in these cases, the primary concession is the maturity date extension).

The transaction reserve for non-TDR loans is calculated based upon several estimated probability factors, such as PD and LGD, both of which were previously discussed above. Upon the occurrence of a TDR in our C&I and CRE portfolios, the transaction reserve is measured based on the estimation of the probable discounted future cash flows expected to be collected on the modified loan in accordance with ASC 310-10. The resulting TDR ALLL calculation often results in a minimal or zero ALLL amount because (1) it is probable all cash flows will be collected and, (2) due to the rate increase, the discounting of the cash flows on the modified loan, using the pre-modification interest rate, exceeds the carrying value of the loan.

However, TDR concessions and classification may increase the ALLL to certain loans, such as consumer loans. The concessions made to these loans often include interest rate reductions, and therefore, the TDR ALLL calculation results in a greater ALLL compared with the non-TDR calculation as the reserve is measured based on the estimation of the probable discounted cash flows expected to be collected on the modified loan in accordance with ASC 310-10. The resulting TDR ALLL calculation often results in a higher ALLL amount because (1) it may not be probable all cash flows will be collected and, (2) due to the rate decrease, the discounting of the cash flows on the modified loan, using the pre-modification interest rate, indicates it is not probable that all cash flows will be collected.

Commercial loan TDRs – In instances where the bank substantiates that it will collect its outstanding balance in full, the note is considered for return to accrual status upon the borrower sustaining sufficient cash flows for a six-month period of time. This six-month period could extend before or after the restructure date. If a charge-off was taken as part of the restructuring, any interest or principal payments received on that note are applied to first reduce the bank’s outstanding book balance and then to recoveries of charged-off principal, unpaid interest, and/or fee expenses.

Residential Mortgage, Automobile, Home Equity, and Other Consumer loan TDRs – Modified loans identified as TDRs are aggregated into pools for analysis. Cash flows and weighted average interest rates are used to calculate impairment at the pooled-loan level. Once the loans are aggregated into the pool, they continue to be classified as TDRs until contractually repaid or charged-off.

Residential mortgage loans not guaranteed by a U.S. government agency such as the FHA, VA, and the USDA, including TDR loans, are reported as accrual or nonaccrual based upon delinquency status. Nonaccrual TDRs are those that are greater than 150-days contractually past due. Loans guaranteed by U.S. government organizations continue to accrue interest upon delinquency.

(1) Post-modification balances approximate pre-modification balances. The aggregate amount of charge-offs as a result of a restructuring are not significant.
(2) TDRs may include multiple concessions and the disclosure classifications are based on the primary concession provided to the borrower.

All classes within the C&I and CRE portfolios are considered as redefaulted at 90-days past due. Automobile loans and other consumer loans are considered as redefaulted at 120-days past due. Residential mortgage loans are considered as redefaulted at 150-days past due. The first-lien and junior-lien home equity portfolios are considered as redefaulted at 150-days past due and 120-days past due, respectively.

Alt-A Mortgage-Backed, Pooled-Trust-Preferred, and Private-Label CMO Securities

Our three highest risk segments of our investment portfolio are the Alt-A mortgage-backed, pooled-trust-preferred, and private-label CMO portfolios. The Alt-A mortgage-backed securities and pooled-trust-preferred securities are in the asset-backed securities portfolio. The performance of the underlying securities in each of these segments continued to reflect the economic environment. Each of these securities in these three segments is subjected to a rigorous review of its projected cash flows. These reviews are supported with analysis from independent third parties.

Each security is part of a pool of issuers and supports a more senior tranche of securities except for the I-Pre TSL II, and MM Comm III securities which are the most senior class.

(1) Security was determined to have OTTI. As such, the book value is net of recorded credit impairment.
(2) The majority of securities have been in a continuous loss position for 12 months or longer.
(3) For purposes of comparability, the lowest credit rating expressed is equivalent to Fitch ratings even where the lowest rating is based on another nationally recognized credit rating agency.
(4) Includes both banks and/or insurance companies.
(5) Excess subordination percentage represents the additional defaults in excess of both current and projected defaults that the CDO can absorb before the bond experiences credit impairment. Excess subordinated percentage is calculated by (a) determining what percentage of defaults a deal can experience before the bond has credit impairment, and (b) subtracting from this default breakage percentage both total current and expected future default percentages.

Security Impairment

Huntington evaluates its available-for-sale securities portfolio on a quarterly basis for indicators of OTTI. Huntington assesses whether OTTI has occurred when the fair value of a debt security is less than the amortized cost basis at period-end. Management reviews the amount of unrealized loss, the length of time the security has been in an unrealized loss position, the credit rating history, market trends of similar security classes, time remaining to maturity, and the source of both interest and principal payments to identify securities which could potentially be impaired. OTTI is considered to have occurred; (1) if Huntington intends to sell the security; (2) if it is more likely than not Huntington will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) the present value of the expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover all contractually required principal and interest payments.

For securities that Huntington does not expect to sell or it is not more likely than not to be required to sell, the OTTI is separated into credit and noncredit components. A discounted cash flow analysis, which includes evaluating the timing of the expected cash flows, is completed for all debt securities subject to credit impairment. The measurement of the credit loss component is equal to the difference between the debt security’s cost basis and the present value of its expected future cash flows discounted at the security’s effective yield. The credit-related OTTI, represented by the expected loss in principal, is recognized in noninterest income. The remaining difference between the security’s fair value and the present value of future expected cash flows is due to factors that are not credit-related and, therefore, are recognized in OCI. Huntington believes that it will fully collect the carrying value of securities on which noncredit-related impairment has been recognized in OCI. Noncredit-related OTTI results from other factors, including increased liquidity spreads and extension of the security. For securities which Huntington does expect to sell, or if it is more likely than not Huntington will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, all OTTI is recognized in earnings. Presentation of OTTI is made in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income on a gross basis with a reduction for the amount of OTTI recognized in OCI. Once an OTTI is recorded, when future cash flows can be reasonably estimated, future cash flows are re-allocated between interest and principal cash flows to provide for a level-yield on the security.

Huntington applied the related OTTI guidance on the debt security types listed below.

Alt-A mortgage-backed and private-label CMO securities are collateralized by first-lien residential mortgage loans. The securities are valued by a third party specialist using a discounted cash flow approach and proprietary pricing model. The model uses inputs such as estimated prepayment speeds, losses, recoveries, default rates that are implied by the underlying performance of collateral in the structure or similar structures, discount rates that are implied by market prices for similar securities, collateral structure types, and house price depreciation / appreciation rates that are based upon macroeconomic forecasts.

Pooled-trust-preferred securities are CDOs backed by a pool of debt securities issued by financial institutions. The collateral generally consists of trust-preferred securities and subordinated debt securities issued by banks, bank holding companies, and insurance companies. A full cash flow analysis is used to estimate fair values and assess impairment for each security within this portfolio. A third party specialist with direct industry experience in pooled-trust-preferred security evaluations is engaged to provide assistance estimating the fair value and expected cash flows on this portfolio. The full cash flow analysis is completed by evaluating the relevant credit and structural aspects of each pooled-trust-preferred security in the portfolio, including collateral performance projections for each piece of collateral in the security and terms of the security’s structure. The credit review includes an analysis of profitability, credit quality, operating efficiency, leverage, and liquidity using available financial and regulatory information for each underlying collateral issuer. The analysis also includes a review of historical industry default data, current/near term operating conditions, and the impact of macroeconomic and regulatory changes. Using the results of our analysis, we estimate appropriate default and recovery probabilities for each piece of collateral then estimate the expected cash flows for each security. The cumulative probability of default ranges from a low of 1% to 100%.

Many collateral issuers have the option of deferring interest payments on their debt for up to five years. For issuers who are deferring interest, assumptions are made regarding the issuers ability to resume interest payments and make the required principal payment at maturity; the cumulative probability of default for these issuers currently ranges from 1% to 100%, and a 10% recovery assumption. The fair value of each security is obtained by discounting the expected cash flows at a market discount rate, ranging from LIBOR plus 5.25% to LIBOR plus 17.00% as of 2012. The market discount rate is determined by reference to yields observed in the market for similarly rated collateralized debt obligations, specifically high-yield collateralized loan obligations. The relatively high market discount rate is reflective of the uncertainty of the cash flows and illiquid nature of these securities. The large differential between the fair value and amortized cost of some of the securities reflects the high market discount rate and the expectation that the majority of the cash flows will not be received until near the final maturity of the security (the final maturities range from 2032 to 2035).

For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the following table summarizes by security type, total OTTI losses recognized in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for securities evaluated for impairment as described above.

The fair values of these assets have been impacted by various market conditions. The unrealized losses were primarily the result of wider liquidity spreads on asset-backed securities and increased market volatility on non-agency mortgage and asset-backed securities that are collateralized by certain mortgage loans. In addition, the expected average lives of the asset-backed securities backed by trust-preferred securities have been extended, due to changes in the expectations of when the underlying securities would be repaid. The contractual terms and / or cash flows of the investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost. Huntington does not intend to sell, nor does it believe it will be required to sell these securities until the fair value is recovered, which may be maturity and; therefore, does not consider them to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2012.

As of June 30, 2012, Management has evaluated all other investment securities with unrealized losses and all non-marketable securities for impairment and concluded no additional OTTI is required.

5. HELD-TO-MATURITY SECURITIES

These are debt securities that Huntington has the intent and ability to hold until maturity. The debt securities are carried at amortized cost and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts using the interest method.

Listed below are the contractual maturities (under 1 year, 1-5 years, 6-10 years, and over 10 years) of held-to-maturity securities at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Security Impairment

Huntington evaluates the held-to-maturity securities portfolio on a quarterly basis for impairment. Impairment would exist when the present value of the expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis at the balance sheet date. Under these circumstances, any OTTI would be recognized in earnings. As of June 30, 2012, Management has evaluated all held-to-maturity securities and concluded no OTTI existed in the portfolio.

6. LOAN SALES AND SECURITIZATIONS

Residential Mortgage Loans

     24,713        12,565        53,654        45,244  

 

(1) Recorded in other noninterest income.

A MSR is established only when the servicing is contractually separated from the underlying mortgage loans by sale or securitization of the loans with servicing rights retained. At initial recognition, the MSR asset is established at its fair value using assumptions consistent with assumptions used to estimate the fair value of existing MSRs. At the time of initial capitalization, MSRs are recorded using either the fair value method or the amortization method. The election of the fair value method or amortization method is made at the time each servicing asset is established and is based upon Management’s forward assumptions regarding interest rates. MSRs are included in accrued income and other assets. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of MSRs carried under the fair value method, as well as amortization or impairment of MSRs recorded using the amortization method, during the period is recorded as an increase or decrease in mortgage banking income, which is reflected in noninterest income in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

MSRs do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. While sales of MSRs occur, the precise terms and conditions are typically not readily available. Therefore, the fair value of MSRs is estimated using a discounted future cash flow model. The model considers portfolio characteristics, contractually specified servicing fees and assumptions related to prepayments, delinquency rates, late charges, other ancillary revenues, costs to service, and other economic factors. Changes in the assumptions used may have a significant impact on the valuation of MSRs.

A summary of key assumptions and the sensitivity of the MSR value at June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, to changes in these assumptions follows:

MSR values are very sensitive to movements in interest rates as expected future net servicing income depends on the projected outstanding principal balances of the underlying loans, which can be greatly impacted by the level of prepayments. Huntington hedges the value of certain MSRs against changes in value attributable to changes in interest rates using a combination of derivative instruments and trading securities.

Total servicing fees included in mortgage banking income amounted to $11.6 million and $12.4 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, servicing fees totaled $23.4 million and $25.0 million, respectively.

Automobile Loans and Leases

In the 2012 first quarter, automobile loans totaling $1.3 billion were transferred to a trust in a securitization transaction in exchange for $1.3 billion of net proceeds. The securitization and resulting sale of all underlying securities qualified for sale accounting. As a result of this transaction, Huntington recognized a $23.0 million gain which is reflected in other noninterest income on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income and recorded a $19.9 million servicing asset which is reflected in accrued income and other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Table of Contents

In preparation of completing a securitization in the second half of 2012, $1.3 billion of automobile loans were transferred from the automobile loan portfolio to loans held for sale during the 2012 second quarter. At June 30, 2012, and through the date of this filing, the Company has not yet identified the specific loans that would be securitized or finalized terms of the securitization.

Huntington has retained servicing responsibilities on sold automobile loans and receives annual servicing fees and other ancillary fees on the outstanding loan balances. Automobile loan servicing rights are accounted for using the amortization method. A servicing asset is established at fair value at the time of the sale. The servicing asset is then amortized against servicing income. Impairment, if any, is recognized when carrying value exceeds the fair value as determined by calculating the present value of expected net future cash flows. The primary risk characteristic for measuring servicing assets is payoff rates of the underlying loan pools. Valuation calculations rely on the predicted payoff assumption and, if actual payoff is quicker than expected, then future value would be impaired.

Changes in the carrying value of automobile loan servicing rights for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012, and 2011, and the fair value at the end of each period were as follows:

Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis at October 1 of each year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. No events or changes in circumstances since the October 1, 2011, annual impairment test were noted that would indicate it was more likely than not a goodwill impairment existed.

The net unrealized gains will be recognized in earnings over the remaining life of the security using the effective interest method.

9. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Share Repurchase Program

On March 14, 2012, Huntington Bancshares Incorporated announced that the Federal Reserve did not object to Huntington’s proposed capital actions included in Huntington’s capital plan submitted to the Federal Reserve in January of this year. These actions included the potential repurchase of up to $182 million of common stock and a continuation of Huntington’s current common dividend through the first quarter of 2013. Huntington’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program consistent with Huntington’s capital plan. During the 2012 second quarter, Huntington repurchased a total of 6.4 million shares at a weighted average share price of $6.26. Huntington did not repurchase any shares during 2011.

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is the amount of earnings (adjusted for dividends declared on preferred stock) available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is the amount of earnings available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period adjusted to include the effect of potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares include incremental shares issued for stock options, restricted stock units and awards, distributions from deferred compensation plans, and the conversion of Huntington’s convertible preferred stock. Potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods in which the effect would be antidilutive. For diluted earnings per share, net income available to common shares can be affected by the conversion of Huntington’s convertible preferred stock. Where the effect of this conversion would be dilutive, net income available to common shareholders is adjusted by the associated preferred dividends and deemed dividend. The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for each of the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, was as follows:

Approximately 17.7 million and 15.3 million options to purchase shares of common stock outstanding at the end of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be antidilutive. The weighted average exercise price for these options was $14.27 per share and $19.69 per share at the end of each respective period.

11. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Huntington sponsors nonqualified and incentive share-based compensation plans. These plans provide for the granting of stock options and other awards to officers, directors, and other employees. Compensation costs are included in personnel costs on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Stock options are granted at the closing market price on the date of the grant. Options granted typically vest ratably over three years or when other conditions are met. Options granted prior to May 2004 have a term of ten years. All options granted after May 2004 have a term of seven years.

Huntington uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value share-based compensation expense. Forfeitures are estimated at the date of grant based on historical rates and reduce the compensation expense recognized. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. Expected volatility is based on the estimated volatility of Huntington’s stock over the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on the dividend rate and stock price at the date of the grant.

The following table illustrates the weighted-average assumptions used in the option-pricing model for options granted for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

(1) The number of options expected to vest includes an estimate of expected forfeitures.

The aggregate intrinsic value represents the amount by which the fair value of underlying stock exceeds the “in-the-money” option exercise price. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, cash received for the exercises of stock options was $0.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The tax benefit realized from stock option exercises was $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million for each respective period.

Huntington also grants restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance share awards and other stock-based awards. Restricted stock units and awards are issued at no cost to the recipient, and can be settled only in shares at the end of the vesting period. Restricted stock awards provide the holder with full voting rights and cash dividends during the vesting period. Restricted stock units do not provide the holder with voting rights or cash dividends during the vesting period, but do accrue a dividend equivalent that is paid upon vesting, and are subject to certain service restrictions. Performance share awards are payable contingent upon Huntington achieving certain predefined performance objectives over the three-year measurement period. The fair value of these awards is the closing market price of Huntington’s common stock on the date of award.

The following table summarizes the status of Huntington’s restricted stock units and performance share awards as of June 30, 2012, and activity for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012:

During the 2012 second quarter, shareholders approved the Huntington Bancshares Incorporated 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan which authorized 51 million shares for future grants. Of the remaining 84 million shares of common stock authorized for issuance at June 30, 2012, 42 million were outstanding and 42 million were available for future grants. Huntington issues shares to fulfill stock option exercises and restricted stock units from available authorized shares. At June 30, 2012, Management believes there are adequate authorized shares available to satisfy anticipated stock option exercises and award releases in 2012.

12. BENEFIT PLANS

Huntington sponsors the Plan, a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all employees hired or rehired prior to January 1, 2010. The Plan provides benefits based upon length of service and compensation levels. The funding policy of Huntington is to contribute an annual amount that is at least equal to the minimum funding requirements but not more than the amount deductible under the Internal Revenue Code. There is no required minimum contribution for 2012.

In addition, Huntington has an unfunded defined benefit post-retirement plan that provides certain healthcare and life insurance benefits to retired employees who have attained the age of 55 and have at least 10 years of vesting service under this plan. For any employee retiring on or after January 1, 1993, post-retirement healthcare benefits are based upon the employee’s number of months of service and are limited to the actual cost of coverage. Life insurance benefits are a percentage of the employee’s base salary at the time of retirement, with a maximum of $50,000 of coverage. The employer paid portion of the post-retirement health and life insurance plan was eliminated for employees retiring on and after March 1, 2010. Eligible employees retiring on and after March 1, 2010, who elect retiree medical coverage, will pay the full cost of this coverage. Huntington will not provide any employer paid life insurance to employees retiring on and after March 1, 2010. Eligible employees will be able to convert or port their existing life insurance at their own expense under the same terms that are available to all terminated employees.

Investments of the Plan are accounted for at cost on the trade date and are reported at fair value. All of the Plan’s investments at June 30, 2012, are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. In general, investments of the Plan are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate risk, credit risk, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments, it is reasonably possible changes in the values of investments will occur in the near term and such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the Plan assets.

The investment objective of the Plan is to maximize the return on Plan assets over a long time period, while meeting the Plan obligations. At June 30, 2012, Plan assets were invested 63% in equity investments and 37% in bonds, with an average duration of 3.4 years on bond investments. Although it may fluctuate with market conditions, Management has targeted a long-term allocation of Plan assets of 70% to 50% in equity investments and 50% to 30% in bond investments. The allocation of Plan assets between equity investments and fixed income investments will change from time to time with the allocation to fixed income investments increasing as the funding level increases.

Huntington also sponsors other nonqualified retirement plans, the most significant being the SERP and the SRIP. The SERP provides certain former officers and directors, and the SRIP provides certain current officers and directors of Huntington and its subsidiaries with defined pension benefits in excess of limits imposed by federal tax law.

Huntington has a defined contribution plan that is available to eligible employees. Huntington matches participant contributions, up to the first 3% of base pay contributed to the Plan. Half of the employee contribution is matched on the 4th and 5th percent of base pay contributed to the Plan.

The following table shows the costs of providing the SERP, SRIP, and defined contribution plans:

13. FAIR VALUES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Huntington follows the fair value accounting guidance under ASC 820 and ASC 825.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A three-level valuation hierarchy was established for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Table of Contents

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Transfers in and out of Level 1, 2, or 3 are recorded at fair value at the beginning of the reporting period.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Mortgage loans held for sale

Huntington elected to apply the fair value option for mortgage loans originated with the intent to sell which are included in loans held for sale. Mortgage loans held for sale are classified as Level 2 and are estimated using security prices for similar product types.

Available-for-sale securities and trading account securities

Securities accounted for at fair value include both the available-for-sale and trading portfolios. Huntington uses prices obtained from third party pricing services and recent trades to determine the fair value of securities. AFS and trading securities are classified as Level 1 using quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical securities that Huntington has the ability to access at the measurement date. 1% of the positions in these portfolios are Level 1, and consist of U.S. Treasury securities and money market mutual funds. When quoted market prices are not available, fair values are classified as Level 2 using quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices of identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, and inputs that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. 96% of the positions in these portfolios are Level 2, and consist of U.S. Government and agency debt securities, agency mortgage backed securities, asset-backed securities, municipal securities and other securities. For both Level 1 and Level 2 securities, management uses various methods and techniques to corroborate prices obtained from the pricing service, including reference to dealer or other market quotes, and by reviewing valuations of comparable instruments. If relevant market prices are limited or unavailable, valuations may require significant management judgment or estimation to determine fair value, in which case the fair values are classified as Level 3. 3% of our positions are Level 3, and consist of non-agency ALT-A asset-backed securities, private-label CMO securities, pooled-trust-preferred CDO securities and municipal securities. A significant change in the unobservable inputs for these securities may result in a significant change in the ending fair value measurement of these securities.

For non-agency ALT-A asset-backed securities, private-label CMO securities, and pooled-trust-preferred CDO securities the fair value methodology incorporates values obtained from proprietary discounted cash flow models provided by a third party. The modeling process for the ALT-A asset-backed securities and private-label CMO securities incorporates assumptions management believes market participants would use to value the security under current market conditions. The assumptions used include prepayment projections, credit loss assumptions, and discount rates, which include a risk premium due to liquidity and uncertainty that are based on both observable and unobservable inputs. Huntington validates the reasonableness of the assumptions by comparing the assumptions with market information. Huntington uses the discounted cash flow analysis, in conjunction with other relevant pricing information obtained from third party pricing services or broker quotes to establish the fair value that management believes is representative under current market conditions. The modeling of the fair value of the pooled-trust-preferred CDO’s utilizes a similar methodology, with the probability of default (“PD”) of each issuer being the most critical input. Management evaluates the PD assumptions provided to the third party pricing service by comparing the current PD to the assumptions used the previous quarter, actual defaults and deferrals in the current period, and trend data on certain financial ratios of the issuers. Huntington also evaluates the assumptions related to discount rates and prepayments. Each quarter, the Company seeks to obtain information on actual trades of securities with similar characteristics to further support our fair value estimates and our underlying assumptions. For purposes of determining fair value at June 30, 2012, the discounted cash flow modeling was the predominant input.

Huntington utilizes the same processes to determine the fair value of investment securities classified as held-to-maturity for impairment evaluation purposes.

Automobile loans

Effective January 1, 2010, Huntington consolidated an automobile loan securitization that previously had been accounted for as an off-balance sheet transaction. As a result, Huntington elected to account for the automobile loan receivables and the associated notes payable at fair value per guidance supplied in ASC 825, “Financial Instruments”. The automobile loan receivables are classified as Level 3. The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the automobile loan receivables included projections of expected losses and prepayment of the underlying loans in the portfolio and a market assumption of interest rate spreads. Certain interest rates are available from similarly traded securities while other interest rates are developed internally based on similar asset-backed security transactions in the market.

Table of Contents

MSRs

MSRs do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, the fair value of these assets is classified as Level 3. Huntington determines the fair value of MSRs using an income approach model based upon our month-end interest rate curve and prepayment assumptions. The model, which is operated and maintained by a third party, utilizes assumptions to estimate future net servicing income cash flows, including estimates of time decay, payoffs, and changes in valuation inputs and assumptions. Servicing brokers and other sources of information (e.g. discussion with other mortgage servicers and industry surveys) are used to obtain information on market practice and assumptions. On at least a quarterly basis, third party marks are obtained from at least one service broker. Huntington reviews the valuation assumptions against this market data for reasonableness and adjusts the assumptions if deemed appropriate. Any recommended change in assumptions and / or inputs are presented for review to the Mortgage Price Risk Subcommittee for final approval.

Derivatives

Derivatives classified as Level 1 consist of exchange traded options and forward commitments to deliver mortgage-backed securities which are valued using quoted prices. Asset and liability conversion swaps and options, and interest rate caps are classified as Level 2. These derivative positions are valued using a discounted cash flow method that incorporates current market interest rates. Derivatives classified as Level 3 consist primarily of interest rate lock agreements related to mortgage loan commitments. The determination of fair value includes assumptions related to the likelihood that a commitment will ultimately result in a closed loan, which is a significant unobservable assumption. A significant increase or decrease in the external market price would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

Securitization trust notes payable

Consists of certain securitization trust notes payable related to the automobile loan receivables measured at fair value. The notes payable are classified as Level 2 and are valued based on interest rates for similar financial instruments.

The tables below present a rollforward of the balance sheet amounts for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, for financial instruments measured on a recurring basis and classified as Level 3. The classification of an item as Level 3 is based on the significance of the unobservable inputs to the overall fair value measurement. However, Level 3 measurements may also include observable components of value that can be validated externally. Accordingly, the gains and losses in the table below include changes in fair value due in part to observable factors that are part of the valuation methodology.

Assets and Liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

Certain assets and liabilities may be required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial recognition. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an on-going basis; however, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. At June 30, 2012, assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis were as follows:

Periodically, Huntington records nonrecurring adjustments of collateral-dependent loans measured for impairment when establishing the ACL. Such amounts are generally based on the fair value of the underlying collateral supporting the loan. Appraisals are generally obtained to support the fair value of the collateral and incorporate measures such as recent sales prices for comparable properties and cost of construction. In cases where the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the collateral less cost to sell, an impairment charge is recognized. At June 30, 2012, Huntington identified $22.9 million of impaired loans for which the fair value is recorded based upon collateral value. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, nonrecurring fair value impairment of $7.6 million was recorded within the provision for credit losses.

Other real estate owned properties are initially valued based on appraisals and third party price opinions, less estimated selling costs. At June 30, 2012, Huntington had $38.6 million of OREO assets. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, fair value losses of $1.5 million were recorded within noninterest expense.

The following provides a general description of the impact of a change in an unobservable input on the fair value measurement and the interrelationship between unobservable inputs, where relevant/significant. Interrelationships may also exist between observable and unobservable inputs. Such relationships have not been included in the discussion below.

A significant change in the unobservable inputs may result in a significant change in the ending fair value measurement of Level 3 instruments. In general, prepayment rates increase when market interest rates decline and decrease when market interest rates rise, higher prepayment rates generally result in lower fair values for MSR assets, automobile loans, and trust preferred securities. Credit loss estimates are driven by the ability of the borrowers to pay their loans and the value of the underlying collateral and are impacted by changes in macroeconomic conditions, typically increasing when economic conditions worsen and decreasing when conditions improve. An increase in the estimated prepayment rate typically results in a decrease in estimated credit losses and vice versa. Higher credit losses generally result in lower fair values. Credit spreads generally increase when liquidity risks and market volatility increase

and decrease when liquidity conditions and market volatility improve. Discount rates typically increase with market interest rates increase and/or credit and liquidity risks increase and decrease when market interest rates decline and and/or credit and liquidity conditions improve. Higher discount rates and credit spreads generally result in lower fair market values. Pull through percentages generally increase when market interest rates increase and decline when market interest rates decline. Higher pull through percentages generally result in higher fair values.

Table of Contents

The short-term nature of certain assets and liabilities result in their carrying value approximating fair value. These include trading account securities, customers’ acceptance liabilities, short-term borrowings, bank acceptances outstanding, FHLB advances, and cash and short-term assets, which include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in banks, and federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements. Loan commitments and letters-of-credit generally have short-term, variable-rate features and contain clauses that limit Huntington’s exposure to changes in customer credit quality. Accordingly, their carrying values, which are immaterial at the respective balance sheet dates, are reasonable estimates of fair value. Not all the financial instruments listed in the table above are subject to the disclosure provisions of ASC Topic 820.

Certain assets, the most significant being operating lease assets, bank owned life insurance, and premises and equipment, do not meet the definition of a financial instrument and are excluded from this disclosure. Similarly, mortgage and nonmortgage servicing rights, deposit base, and other customer relationship intangibles are not considered financial instruments and are not included above. Accordingly, this fair value information is not intended to, and does not, represent Huntington’s underlying value. Many of the assets and liabilities subject to the disclosure requirements are not actively traded, requiring fair values to be estimated by Management. These estimations necessarily involve the use of judgment about a wide variety of factors, including but not limited to, relevancy of market prices of comparable instruments, expected future cash flows, and appropriate discount rates.

The following methods and assumptions were used by Huntington to estimate the fair value of the remaining classes of financial instruments:

Held-to-maturity securities

Fair values are determined by using models that are based on security-specific details, as well as relevant industry and economic factors. The most significant of these inputs are quoted market prices, and interest rate spreads on relevant benchmark securities.

Loans and direct financing leases

Variable-rate loans that reprice frequently are based on carrying amounts, as adjusted for estimated credit losses. The fair values for other loans and leases are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses and employ interest rates currently being offered for loans and leases with similar terms. The rates take into account the position of the yield curve, as well as an adjustment for prepayment risk, operating costs, and profit. This value is also reduced by an estimate of expected losses and the credit risk associated in the loan and lease portfolio. The valuation of the loan portfolio reflected discounts that Huntington believed are consistent with transactions occurring in the marketplace.

Deposits

Demand deposits, savings accounts, and money market deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair values of fixed-rate time deposits are estimated by discounting cash flows using interest rates currently being offered on certificates with similar maturities.

Debt

Fixed-rate, long-term debt is based upon quoted market prices, which are inclusive of Huntington’s credit risk. In the absence of quoted market prices, discounted cash flows using market rates for similar debt with the same maturities are used in the determination of fair value.

14. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative financial instruments are recorded in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as either an asset or a liability (in accrued income and other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively) and measured at fair value.

Derivatives used in Asset and Liability Management Activities

A variety of derivative financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps, caps, floors, and collars are used in asset and liability management activities to protect against the risk of adverse price or interest rate movements. These instruments provide flexibility in adjusting Huntington’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates without exposure to loss of principal and higher funding requirements. Huntington records derivatives at fair value, as further described in Note 13. Collateral agreements are regularly entered into as part of the underlying derivative agreements with Huntington’s counterparties to mitigate counterparty credit risk. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, aggregate credit risk associated with these derivatives, net of collateral that has been pledged by the counterparty, was $9.6 million and $36.4 million, respectively. The credit risk associated with interest rate swaps is calculated after considering master netting agreements.

Table of Contents

At June 30, 2012, Huntington pledged $203.0 million of investment securities and cash collateral to counterparties, while other counterparties pledged $157.0 million of investment securities and cash collateral to Huntington to satisfy collateral netting agreements. In the event of credit downgrades, Huntington could be required to provide $1.0 million of additional collateral.

These derivative financial instruments were entered into for the purpose of managing the interest rate risk of assets and liabilities. Consequently, net amounts receivable or payable on contracts hedging either interest earning assets or interest bearing liabilities were accrued as an adjustment to either interest income or interest expense. The net amounts resulted in an increase to net interest income of $27.7 million and $28.1 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the net amounts resulted in an increase to net interest income of $52.4 million and $62.0 million, respectively.

In connection with securitization activities, Huntington purchased interest rate caps with a notional value totaling $0.7 billion. These purchased caps were assigned to the securitization trust for the benefit of the security holders. Interest rate caps were also sold totaling $0.7 billion outside the securitization structure. Both the purchased and sold caps are marked to market through income.

In connection with the sale of Huntington’s Class B Visa® shares, Huntington entered into a swap agreement with the purchaser of the shares. The swap agreement adjusts for dilution in the conversion ratio of Class B shares resulting from the Visa® litigation. At June 30, 2012, the fair value of the swap liability of $0.4 million is an estimate of the exposure liability based upon Huntington’s assessment of the probability-weighted potential Visa® litigation losses and certain fixed payments required to be made through the term of the swap.

The following table presents the fair values at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 of Huntington’s derivatives that are designated and not designated as hedging instruments. Amounts in the table below are presented gross without the impact of any net collateral arrangements.

Fair value hedges are purchased to convert deposits and subordinated and other long-term debt from fixed-rate obligations to floating rate. The changes in fair value of the derivative are, to the extent that the hedging relationship is effective, recorded through earnings and offset against changes in the fair value of the hedged item.

The following table presents the change in fair value for derivatives designated as fair value hedges as well as the offsetting change in fair value on the hedged item for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

Any resulting ineffective portion of the hedging relationship is recognized in noninterest income in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

For cash flow hedges, interest rate swap contracts were entered into that pay fixed-rate interest in exchange for the receipt of variable-rate interest without the exchange of the contract’s underlying notional amount, which effectively converts a portion of its floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate debt. This reduces the potentially adverse impact of increases in interest rates on future interest expense. Other LIBOR-based commercial and industrial loans as well as investment securities were effectively converted to fixed-rate by entering into contracts that swap certain variable-rate interest payments for fixed-rate interest payments at designated times.

To the extent these derivatives are effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the derivatives’ fair value will not be included in current earnings but are reported as a component of OCI in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity. These changes in fair value will be included in earnings of future periods when earnings are also affected by the changes in the hedged cash flows. To the extent these derivatives are not effective, changes in their fair values are immediately included in noninterest income.

Derivatives used in trading activities

Various derivative financial instruments are offered to enable customers to meet their financing and investing objectives and for their risk management purposes. Derivative financial instruments used in trading activities consisted predominantly of interest rate swaps, but also included interest rate caps, floors, and futures, as well as foreign exchange options. Interest rate options grant the option holder the right to buy or sell an underlying financial instrument for a predetermined price before the contract expires. Interest rate futures are commitments to either purchase or sell a financial instrument at a future date for a specified price or yield and may be settled in cash or through delivery of the underlying financial instrument. Interest rate caps and floors are option-based contracts that entitle the buyer to receive cash payments based on the difference between a designated reference rate and a strike price, applied to a notional amount. Written options, primarily caps, expose Huntington to market risk but not credit risk. Purchased options contain both credit and market risk. The interest rate risk of these customer derivatives is mitigated by entering into similar derivatives having offsetting terms with other counterparties. The credit risk to these customers is evaluated and included in the calculation of fair value.

The net fair values of these derivative financial instruments, for which the gross amounts are included in accrued income and other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, were $59.6 million and $53.2 million, respectively. The total notional values of derivative financial instruments used by Huntington on behalf of customers, including offsetting derivatives, were $11.7 billion and $10.6 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Huntington’s credit risks from interest rate swaps used for trading purposes were $331.4 million and $309.5 million at the same dates, respectively.

The total notional value of these derivative financial instruments at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was $1.7 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively. The total notional amount at June 30, 2012, corresponds to trading assets with a fair value of $13.2 million. Total MSR hedging gains and (losses) for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, were $19.8 million and $13.1 million, respectively and $17.6 million and $8.8 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Included in total MSR hedging gains and losses for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were net gains and (losses) related to derivative instruments of $19.8 million and $12.6 million, respectively, and $17.6 million and $9.0 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These amounts are included in mortgage banking income in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

15. VIEs

Consolidated VIEs

Consolidated VIEs at June 30, 2012, consisted of certain loan securitization trusts. These securitizations included automobile loan and lease securitization trusts formed in 2009 and 2006. Huntington has determined the trusts are VIEs. Huntington has concluded that it is the primary beneficiary of these trusts because it has the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance and it has either the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

The following tables present the carrying amount and classification of the consolidated trusts’ assets and liabilities that were included in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011:

The automobile loans and leases were designated to repay the securitized notes. Huntington services the loans and leases and uses the proceeds from principal and interest payments to pay the securitized notes during the amortization period. Huntington has not provided financial or other support that was not previously contractually required.

2012 AUTOMOBILE TRUST and 2011 AUTOMOBILE TRUST

During the 2012 first quarter and 2011 third quarter, we transferred automobile loans totaling $1.3 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively, to trusts in securitization transactions. The securitizations and the resulting sale of all underlying securities qualified for sale accounting. Huntington has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of these trusts because it has neither the obligation to absorb losses of the entities that could potentially be significant to the VIEs nor the right to receive benefits from the entities that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. Huntington is not required and does not currently intend to provide any additional financial support to the trusts. Investors and creditors only have recourse to the assets held by the trusts. The interest Huntington holds in the VIEs relates to servicing rights which are included within accrued income and other assets of Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The maximum exposure to loss is equal to the carrying value of the servicing asset.

TOWER HILL SECURITIES, INC.

In 2010, we transferred approximately $92.1 million of municipal securities, $86.0 million in Huntington Preferred Capital, Inc. (Real Estate Investment Trust) Class E Preferred Stock and cash of $6.1 million to Tower Hill Securities, Inc. in exchange for $184.1 million of Common and Preferred Stock of Tower Hill Securities, Inc. The municipal securities and the REIT Shares will be used to satisfy $65.0 million of mandatorily redeemable securities issued by Tower Hill Securities, Inc. and are not available to satisfy the general debts and obligations of Huntington or any consolidated affiliates. The transfer was recorded as a secured financing. Interests held by Huntington consist of municipal securities within available for sale and other securities and Series B preferred securities within other long term debt of Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The maximum exposure to loss is equal to the carrying value of the municipal securities.

TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES

Huntington has certain wholly-owned trusts whose assets, liabilities, equity, income, and expenses are not included within Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These trusts have been formed for the sole purpose of issuing trust-preferred securities, from which the proceeds are then invested in Huntington junior subordinated debentures, which are reflected in Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as subordinated notes. The trust securities are the obligations of the trusts, and as such, are not consolidated within Huntington’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. A list of trust preferred securities outstanding at June 30, 2012, follows:

(2) Variable effective rate at June 30, 2012, based on three month LIBOR + 0.70
(3) Variable effective rate at June 30, 2012, based on three month LIBOR + 0.625.
(4) Variable effective rate at June 30, 2012, based on three month LIBOR + 2.95.

(6) Variable effective rate at June 30, 2012, based on three month LIBOR + 3.25.

Each issue of the junior subordinated debentures has an interest rate equal to the corresponding trust securities distribution rate. Huntington has the right to defer payment of interest on the debentures at any time, or from time-to-time for a period not exceeding five years, provided that no extension period may extend beyond the stated maturity of the related debentures. During any such extension period, distributions to the trust securities will also be deferred and Huntington’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock will be restricted. Periodic cash payments and payments upon liquidation or redemption with respect to trust securities are guaranteed by Huntington to the extent of funds held by the trusts. The guarantee ranks subordinate and junior in right of payment to all indebtedness of the Company to the same extent as the junior subordinated debt. The guarantee does not place a limitation on the amount of additional indebtedness that may be incurred by Huntington.

During the 2012 second quarter, Huntington redeemed $80.0 million of trust preferred securities. The trust preferred securities were redeemed at the redemption price (as a percentage of the liquidation amount) plus accrued and unpaid distributions to the redemption date. These redemptions were consistent with the capital plan we submitted to the Federal Reserve, will be funded from our existing cash and resulted in a gain of $1.7 million.

LOW INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDIT PARTNERSHIPS

Huntington makes certain equity investments in various limited partnerships that sponsor affordable housing projects utilizing the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) pursuant to Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. The purpose of these investments is to achieve a satisfactory return on capital, to facilitate the sale of additional affordable housing product offerings, and to assist in achieving goals associated with the Community Reinvestment Act. The primary activities of the limited partnerships include the identification, development, and operation of multi family housing that is leased to qualifying residential tenants. Generally, these types of investments are funded through a combination of debt and equity.

Huntington is a limited partner in each Low Income Housing Tax Credit Partnership. A separate unrelated third party is the general partner. Each limited partnership is managed by the general partner, who exercises full and exclusive control over the affairs of the limited partnership. The general partner has all the rights, powers and authority granted or permitted to be granted to a general partner of a limited partnership under the Ohio Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. Duties entrusted to the general partner of each limited partnership include, but are not limited to: investment in operating companies, company expenditures, investment of excess funds, borrowing funds, employment of agents, disposition of fund property, prepayment and refinancing of liabilities, votes and consents, contract authority, disbursement of funds, accounting methods, tax elections, bank accounts, insurance, litigation, cash reserve, and use of working capital reserve funds. Except for limited rights granted to consent to certain transactions, the limited partner(s) may not participate in the operation, management, or control of the limited partnership’s business, transact any business in the limited partnership’s name or have any power to sign documents for or otherwise bind the limited partnership. In addition, the general partner may only be removed by the limited partner(s) in the event the general partner fails to comply with the terms of the agreement and/or is negligent in performing its duties.

Huntington believes the general partner of each limited partnership has the power to direct the activities which most significantly affect the performance of each partnership, therefore, Huntington has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of any LIHTC partnership. Huntington uses the equity or effective yield method to account for its investments in these entities. These investments are included in accrued income and other assets. At June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, Huntington had net investment commitments of $358.0 million and $376.1 million, respectively, of which $345.8 million and $322.5 million, respectively, were funded. The unfunded portion is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Commitments to extend credit

In the ordinary course of business, Huntington makes various commitments to extend credit that are not reflected in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The contractual amounts of these financial agreements at June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, were as follows:

 

     June 30,      December 31,  

(dollar amounts in millions)

   2012      2011  

Contract amount represents credit risk:

     

Commitments to extend credit

     

Commercial

   $ 8,762      $ 8,006  

Consumer

     6,119        5,904  

Commercial real estate

     551        610  

Standby letters-of-credit

     531        586  

Commitments to extend credit generally have fixed expiration dates, are variable-rate, and contain clauses that permit Huntington to terminate or otherwise renegotiate the contracts in the event of a significant deterioration in the customer’s credit quality. These arrangements normally require the payment of a fee by the customer, the pricing of which is based on prevailing market conditions, credit quality, probability of funding, and other relevant factors. Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the contract amounts are not necessarily indicative of future cash requirements. The interest rate risk arising from these financial instruments is insignificant as a result of their predominantly short-term, variable-rate nature.

Standby letters-of-credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. Most of these arrangements mature within two years. The carrying amount of deferred revenue associated with these guarantees was $1.4 million and $1.6 million at June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Through the Company’s credit process, Huntington monitors the credit risks of outstanding standby letters-of-credit. When it is probable that a standby letter-of-credit will be drawn and not repaid in full, losses are recognized in the provision for credit losses. At June 30, 2012, Huntington had $531 million of standby letters-of-credit outstanding, of which 82% were collateralized. Included in this $531 million total are letters-of-credit issued by the Bank that support securities that were issued by customers and remarketed by The Huntington Investment Company, the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiary.

Table of Contents

Huntington uses an internal grading system to assess an estimate of loss on its loan and lease portfolio. This same loan grading system is used to monitor credit risk associated with standby letters-of-credit. Under this grading system as of June 30, 2012, approximately $69 million of the standby letters-of-credit were rated strong with sufficient asset quality, liquidity, and good debt capacity and coverage; approximately $407 million were rated average with acceptable asset quality, liquidity, and modest debt capacity; and approximately $55 million were rated substandard with negative financial trends, structural weaknesses, operating difficulties, and higher leverage.

Commercial letters-of-credit represent short-term, self-liquidating instruments that facilitate customer trade transactions and generally have maturities of no longer than 90 days. The goods or cargo being traded normally secures these instruments.

Commitments to sell loans

Huntington enters into forward contracts relating to its mortgage banking business to hedge the exposures from commitments to make new residential mortgage loans with existing customers and from mortgage loans classified as loans held for sale. At June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, Huntington had commitments to sell residential real estate loans of $938.9 million and $629.0 million, respectively. These contracts mature in less than one year.

Income Taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state, city, and foreign jurisdictions. Federal income tax audits have been completed through 2007. The Company has appealed certain proposed adjustments resulting from the IRS examination of the 2006 and 2007 tax returns. Management believes the tax positions taken related to such proposed adjustments were correct and supported by applicable statutes, regulations, and judicial authority, and intend to vigorously defend them. In 2011, Management entered into discussions with the Appeals Division of the IRS. It is possible the ultimate resolution of the proposed adjustments, if unfavorable, may be material to the results of operations in the period it occurs. However, although no assurance can be given, Management believes the resolution of these examinations will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position. In the 2011 third quarter, the IRS began its examination of our 2008 and 2009 consolidated federal income tax returns. Various state and other jurisdictions remain open to examination for tax years 2005 and forward.

Huntington accounts for uncertainties in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. At June 30, 2012, Huntington had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $11.9 million in income tax liability related to tax positions. Total interest accrued on the unrecognized tax benefits was $2.6 million as of June 30, 2012. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate of the tax liabilities. However, any ultimate settlement is not expected to be material to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as a whole. Huntington recognizes interest and penalties on income tax assessments or income tax refunds in the financial statements as a component of its provision for income taxes. Huntington does not anticipate the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change within the next 12 months.

Litigation

The nature of Huntington’s business ordinarily results in a certain amount of claims, litigation, investigations, and legal and administrative cases and proceedings, all of which are considered incidental to the normal conduct of business. When the Company determines it has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted, it vigorously defends itself. The Company will consider settlement of cases when, in Management’s judgment, it is in the best interests of both the Company and its shareholders to do so.

On at least a quarterly basis, Huntington assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. For matters where it is probable the Company will incur a loss and the amount can be reasonably estimated, Huntington establishes an accrual for the loss. Once established, the accrual is adjusted as appropriate to reflect any relevant developments. For matters where a loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be estimated, no accrual is established.

In certain cases, exposure to loss exists in excess of the accrual to the extent such loss is reasonably possible, but not probable. Management believes an estimate of the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses, in excess of amounts accrued, for current legal proceedings is from $0 to approximately $150.0 million at June 30, 2012. For certain other cases, Management cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss at this time. Any estimate involves significant judgment, given the varying stages of the proceedings (including the fact that many of them are currently in preliminary stages), the existence of multiple defendants in several of the current proceedings whose share of liability has yet to be determined, the numerous unresolved issues in many of the proceedings, and the inherent uncertainty of the various potential outcomes of such proceedings. Accordingly, Management’s estimate will change from time-to-time, and actual losses may be more or less than the current estimate.

Table of Contents

While the final outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain, based on information currently available, advice of counsel, and available insurance coverage, Management believes that the amount it has already accrued is adequate and any incremental liability arising from the Company’s legal proceedings will not have a material negative adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position as a whole. However, in the event of unexpected future developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position in a particular period.

The following supplements the discussion of certain matters previously reported in Item 3 (Legal Proceedings) of the 2011 Form 10-K for events occurring through the date of this filing:

The Bank is a defendant in three lawsuits, which collectively may be material, arising from its commercial lending, depository, and equipment leasing relationships with Cyberco Holdings, Inc. (Cyberco), formerly based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. In November 2004, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the IRS raided the Cyberco facilities and Cyberco’s operations ceased. An equipment leasing fraud was uncovered, whereby Cyberco sought financing from equipment lessors and financial institutions, including the Bank, allegedly to purchase computer equipment from Teleservices Group, Inc. (Teleservices). Cyberco created fraudulent documentation to close the financing transactions while, in fact, no computer equipment was ever purchased or leased from Teleservices which proved to be a shell corporation.

On June 22, 2007, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Michigan (District Court) by El Camino Resources, Ltd, ePlus Group, Inc., and Bank Midwest, N.A., all of whom had lending relationships with Cyberco, against the Bank, alleging that Cyberco defrauded plaintiffs and converted plaintiffs’ property through various means in connection with the equipment leasing scheme and alleges that the Bank aided and abetted Cyberco in committing the alleged fraud and conversion. The complaint further alleges that the Bank’s actions entitle one of the plaintiffs to recover $1.9 million from the Bank as a form of unjust enrichment. In addition, plaintiffs claimed direct damages of approximately $32.0 million and additional consequential damages in excess of $20.0 million. On July 1, 2010, the District Court issued an Opinion and Order adopting in full a federal magistrate’s recommendation for summary judgment in favor of the Bank on all claims except the unjust enrichment claim, and a partial summary judgment was entered on July 1, 2010. The Bank requested an opportunity to file a motion for summary judgment on the remaining unjust enrichment claim against it. A motion for reconsideration filed by the plaintiffs regarding the partial summary judgment was denied. Subsequently, in connection with a pre-motion conference, the District Court, in lieu of allowing the Bank to file a summary judgment motion, ordered the case to be tried in April 2012, in a one day bench trial, and entered a scheduling order governing all pretrial conduct. On February 6, 2012, the District Court dismissed the remaining count for unjust enrichment following a finding by the bankruptcy court that the plaintiff must pursue its rights, if any, with respect to that count in a bankruptcy court. The plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal on March 2, 2012, appealing the District Court’s judgment against them on the aiding and abetting and conversion claims. The plaintiffs appellants’ brief was filed in the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals on May 17, 2012, and the Bank’s appellee’s brief was filed on July 16, 2012.

The Bank is also involved with the Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings of both Cyberco, filed on December 9, 2004, and Teleservices, filed on January 21, 2005. The Cyberco bankruptcy trustee commenced an adversary proceeding against the Bank on December 8, 2006, seeking over $70.0 million he alleges was transferred to the Bank. The Bank responded with a motion to dismiss and all but the preference claims were dismissed on January 29, 2008. The Cyberco bankruptcy trustee alleges preferential transfers in the amount of approximately $1.2 million. The Bankruptcy Court ordered the case to be tried in July 2012, and entered a pretrial order governing all pretrial conduct. The Bank filed a motion for summary judgment based on the Cyberco trustee seeking recovery in connection with the same alleged transfers as the Teleservices trustee in the case described below. The Court granted the motion in principal part and the parties stipulated to a full dismissal which was entered on June 19, 2012.

The Teleservices bankruptcy trustee filed an adversary proceeding against the Bank on January 19, 2007, seeking to avoid and recover alleged transfers that occurred in two ways: (1) checks made payable to the Bank to be applied to Cyberco’s indebtedness to the Bank, and (2) deposits into Cyberco’s bank accounts with the Bank. A trial was held as to only the Bank’s defenses in the 2010 fourth quarter. Subsequently, the trustee filed a summary judgment motion on her affirmative case, alleging the fraudulent transfers to the Bank totaled approximately $73.0 million and seeking judgment in that amount (which includes the $1.2 million alleged to be preferential transfers by the Cyberco bankruptcy trustee). On March 17, 2011, the Bankruptcy Court issued an Opinion determining the alleged transfers made to the Bank were not received in good faith from the time period of April 30, 2004, through November 2004, and that the Bank failed to show a lack of knowledge of the avoidability of the alleged transfers from September 2003, through April 30, 2004. The trustee then filed an amended motion for summary judgment on her affirmative case and a hearing was held on July 1, 2011.

On March 30, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court issued an Opinion on the trustee’s motion determining the Bank was the initial transferee of the checks made payable to it and was a subsequent transferee of all deposits into Cyberco’s accounts. The Bankruptcy Court ruled Cyberco’s deposits were themselves transfers to the Bank under the Bankruptcy Code, and the Bank was liable for both the checks and the deposits, totaling approximately $73.0 million. The Bankruptcy Court ruled the Bank may be entitled to a credit of approximately $4.0 million for the Cyberco trustee’s recoveries in preference actions filed against third parties that received payments from Cyberco within 90 days preceding Cyberco’s bankruptcy. Lastly, the Bankruptcy Court ruled that it will award prejudgment interest to the Teleservices trustee at a rate to be determined. A trial was held on these remaining issued on April 30, 2012, and the Bankruptcy Court issued a bench opinion on July 23, 2012. In that opinion, the Bankruptcy Court denied the Bank the $4.0 million credit, but ruled that approximately $0.9 million of deposits were either double-counted or were outside of the timeframe in which the Teleservices trustee can recover. The Bankruptcy Court’s recommended award will therefore be reduced by this $0.9 million. The Bankruptcy Court also ruled the interest rate specified in the federal statute governing post-judgment interest, which is based on treasury bill rates, will be the rate of interest for determining prejudgment interest. The rulings of the Bankruptcy Court in its March 2011 and March 2012 opinions, as well as its July 23, 2012, bench opinion, will not be reduced to judgment by the Bankruptcy Court. Rather, the Bankruptcy Court will deliver a report and recommendation to the District Court for the Western District of Michigan. The District Court will subsequently conduct a de novo review of the fact findings and legal conclusions in the Bankruptcy Court’s opinions and issue its decision thereafter.

In the pending bankruptcy cases of Cyberco and Teleservices, the Bank moved to substantively consolidate the two bankruptcy estates, principally on the ground that Teleservices was the alter ego and a mere instrumentality of Cyberco at all times. On July 2, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court issued an Opinion denying the Bank’s motions for substantive consolidation of the two bankruptcy estates. The Bank has appealed this ruling and the appeal is pending.

On January 17, 2012, the Company was named a defendant in a putative class action filed on behalf of all 88 counties in Ohio against MERSCORP, Inc. and numerous other financial institutions that participate in the mortgage electronic registration system (MERS). The complaint alleges that recording of mortgages and assignments thereof is mandatory under Ohio law and seeks a declaratory judgment that the defendants are required to record every mortgage and assignment on real property located in Ohio and pay the attendant statutory recording fees. The complaint also seeks damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. Although Huntington has not been named as a defendant in the other cases, similar litigation has been initiated against MERSCORP, Inc. and other financial institutions in other jurisdictions throughout the country.

18. SEGMENT REPORTING

We have four major business segments: Retail and Business Banking, Regional and Commercial Banking, Automobile Finance and Commercial Real Estate, and Wealth Advisors, Government Finance, and Home Lending. A Treasury / Other function includes our insurance business and other unallocated assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense.

Segment results are determined based upon the Company’s management reporting system, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each of the business segments. The process is designed around the Company’s organizational and management structure and, accordingly, the results derived are not necessarily comparable with similar information published by other financial institutions. A description of each segment and table of financial results is presented below.

Retail and Business Banking: The Retail and Business Banking segment provides a wide array of financial products and services to consumer and small business customers including but not limited to checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, consumer loans, and small business loans and leases. Other financial services available to consumer and small business customers include investments, insurance services, interest rate risk protection products, foreign exchange hedging, and treasury management services. Huntington serves customers primarily through our traditional banking network of over 680 branches as well as our convenience branches located in grocery stores in Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Indiana, West Virginia, and Kentucky. In addition to our extensive branch network, customers can access Huntington through online banking, mobile banking, telephone banking, and over 1,300 ATMs.

Huntington has established a “Fair Play” banking philosophy and is building a reputation for meeting the banking needs of consumers in a manner which makes them feel supported and appreciated. In 2010, Huntington brought innovation to the checking account by providing consumers with a 24-hour grace period to correct a shortfall in an account and avoid the associated overdraft fees. Huntington believes customers are recognizing this and other efforts as key differentiators and it is earning us more customers and deeper relationships.

Business Banking is a dynamic and growing part of Huntington’s business and we are committed to being the bank of choice for small businesses in our markets. Business Banking is defined as companies with revenues less than $15 million and consists of approximately 130,000 businesses. Huntington continues to develop products and services that are designed specifically to meet the needs of small business. Huntington continues to look for ways to help companies find solutions to their capital needs, from our program helping businesses that had struggled in the economic downturn but are now showing several quarters of profitability, to our participation in the Small Business Administration programs.

Regional and Commercial Banking: This segment provides a wide array of products and services to the middle market and large corporate client base located primarily within our core geographic banking markets. Huntington products in this segment include commercial lending, as well as depository and liquidity management products. Dedicated teams collaborate with our primary bankers to deliver complex and customized treasury management solutions, equipment and technology leasing, international services, capital markets services such as interest rate risk protection products, foreign exchange hedging and sales, trading of securities, mezzanine investment capabilities, and employee benefit programs (insurance, 401(k)). The Commercial Banking team specializes in serving a number of industry segments such as government entities, not-for-profit organizations, health-care entities, and large, publicly traded companies. Commercial bankers personally deliver these products and services directly and with cross-segment product partners. Huntington consistently strives to develop extensive relationships with clients creating defined relationship plans which identify needs and offer solutions.

The primary focus for Regional and Commercial Banking is our ability to gain a deeper relationship with our existing customers and to increase our market share through our unique customer solution strategy. This includes a comprehensive cross-sell approach to capture the untapped opportunities within our customer and prospect community. This strategy embodies a shift from credit-only focus, to a total customer solution approach with an increasing share-of-wallet.

The Regional and Commercial Banking business model includes eleven regional markets driven by local execution. These markets are supported by expertise in large corporate and middle market segments, by capabilities in treasury management and equipment finance, and by vertical strategies within the healthcare and not-for-profit industries.

The commercial portfolio includes a distribution across industries and segments which resembles the market demographics of our footprint. A strategic focus of Regional and Commercial Banking is to target underpenetrated markets within our footprint and capitalize on opportunities in industries such as not-for-profit and healthcare.

In addition, Regional and Commercial Banking expanded the leadership, investment, and capabilities for treasury management and equipment finance. With our investments in treasury management, Huntington differentiated itself through our implementation experience and the speed at which products and services are delivered to our customers. In equipment finance, Huntington distinguished itself through aggressive business development and local service delivery and by strategically aligning with our bank partners to drive market share.

Automobile Finance and Commercial Real Estate: This segment provides lending and other banking products and services to customers outside of our normal retail and commercial banking segments. Our products and services include financing for the purchase of automobiles by customers of automotive dealerships; financing for the purchase of new and used vehicle inventory by automotive dealerships; and financing for land, buildings, and other commercial real estate owned or constructed by real estate developers, automobile dealerships, or other customers with real estate project financing needs. Products and services are delivered through highly specialized relationship-focused bankers and our cross segment product partners. Huntington creates well-defined relationship plans which identify needs where solutions are developed and customer commitments are obtained.

The Automotive Finance team services automobile dealerships, its owners, and consumers buying automobiles through these dealerships. Huntington has provided new and used automobile financing and dealer services throughout the Midwest since the early 1950s. This consistency in the market and our focus on working with strong dealerships, has allowed us to expand into selected markets outside of the Midwest and to actively deepen relationships while building a strong reputation.

The Commercial Real Estate team serves professional real estate developers, REITs, and other customers with lending needs that are secured by commercial properties. Huntington has a clear focus on experienced, well-managed, well-capitalized top tier real estate developers who are capable of operating in all economic phases of the real estate industry. Most of our customers are located within our footprint.

Wealth Advisors, Government Finance, and Home Lending: This segment consists of our wealth management, government banking, and home lending businesses. In wealth management, Huntington provides financial services to high net worth clients in our primary banking markets and Florida. Huntington provides these services through a unified sales team, which consists of former private bankers, trust officers, and investment advisors; Huntington Asset Advisors, which provides investment management services; Huntington Asset Services, which offers administrative and operational support to fund complexes; and retirement plan services. Aligned with the eleven regional commercial banking markets, this coordinated service model delivers products and services directly and through the other segment product partners. A fundamental point of differentiation is our commitment to be in the market, working closely with clients and their other advisors to identify needs, offer solutions and provide ongoing advice in an optimal client experience.

Under the agreement, approximately $520.6 million of loans, a receivable of $95.9 million from the FDIC, and $155.0 million of other assets (primarily cash and due from banks and investment securities) were transferred to Huntington. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at fair value in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations”. The fair values for loans were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms (Level 3). This value was reduced by an estimate of probable losses and the credit risk associated with the loans. The fair values of deposits were estimated by discounting cash flows using interest rates currently being offered on deposits with similar maturities (Level 3). Additionally, approximately $712.5 million of deposits and $45.2 million of other borrowings were assumed. Huntington recognized an $11.4 million bargain purchase gain during the 2012 first quarter, which is included in other noninterest income.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Huntington maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Huntington’s Management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of Huntington’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon such evaluation, Huntington’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, Huntington’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There have not been any significant changes in Huntington’s internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Huntington’s internal controls over financial reporting.
