Loans
Total loans were $24.6 billion at June 30, 2026, up $588.3 million, or 2%, from March 31, 2026. Loan growth was driven primarily by an increase in C&I lending, healthcare activity, and commercial real estate across multiple products.

Deposits
Total deposits at June 30, 2026 were $29.6 billion, up $547.6 million, or 2%, from March 31, 2026. Deposit growth was driven primarily by an increase in interest-bearing transactions and savings, offset by decreases in retail time deposits and interest-bearing public fund deposits.

Interest-bearing public fund deposits decreased $56.9 million, or 2%, linked-quarter, totaling $2.9 billion at June 30, 2026. The decrease in interest-bearing public fund deposits was driven by seasonal outflows.

Average deposits for the second quarter of 2026 were $28.8 billion, down $53.8 million, or less than 1%, linked-quarter.

The net interest margin (NIM) (TE) was 3.56% in the second quarter of 2026, up 1 bp linked-quarter, driven by the higher investment portfolio yield (+2 bps), and lower cost of deposits (+3 bps), partially offset by unfavorable borrowing costs (-3 bps) and lower loan yields (-1 bp).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release includes non-GAAP financial measures to describe Hancock Whitney’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP-basis financial statements and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these non-GAAP measures or similar measures differently. The reconciliations of those measures to GAAP measures are provided either in the financial tables or in Appendix A thereto.
Consistent with the provisions of subpart 229.1400 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-K, “Disclosures by Bank and Savings and Loan Registrants,” the company presents net interest income, net interest margin and efficiency ratios on a fully taxable equivalent (“TE”) basis. The TE basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments using the statutory federal tax rate to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable equivalent basis. The company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income and it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources.
The company presents certain additional non-GAAP financial measures to assist the reader with a better understanding of the company’s performance period over period, as well as to provide investors with assistance in understanding the success management has experienced in executing its strategic initiatives. The company highlights certain items that are outside of our principal business and/or are not indicative of forward-looking trends in supplemental disclosures items below our GAAP financial data and presents certain “Adjusted” ratios that exclude these disclosed items. These adjusted ratios provide management or the reader with a measure that may be more indicative of forward-looking trends in our business, as well as demonstrates the effects of significant gains or losses and changes.
We define Adjusted Pre-Provision Net Revenue as net income excluding provision expense and income tax expense, plus the taxable equivalent adjustment (as defined above), less supplemental disclosure items (as defined above). Management believes that adjusted pre-provision net revenue is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle. We define Adjusted Revenue as net interest income (te) and noninterest income less supplemental disclosure items. We define Adjusted Noninterest Expense as noninterest expense less supplemental disclosure items. We define our Efficiency Ratio as noninterest expense to total net interest income (te) and noninterest income, excluding amortization of purchased intangibles and supplemental disclosure items, if applicable. Management believes adjusted revenue, adjusted noninterest expense and the efficiency ratio are useful measures as they provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability with prior periods.
