Insights

First Horizon's stress test shows exceptional resilience with CET1 ratio of 9.7% under severe scenarios, demonstrating strong risk management and capital position.

First Horizon's 2025 stress test results reveal impressive capital resilience under hypothetical severe economic conditions. The bank's minimum Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio of 9.7% significantly exceeds the regulatory minimum of 4.5%, providing approximately $4 billion in additional pre-tax loss absorption capacity.

The bank's stress test performance demonstrates several competitive advantages. Their loan portfolio stressed loss rate of just 2.3% is dramatically lower than the Federal Reserve-published median DFAST result of 6.1%. This outperformance stems from a strategic portfolio mix that includes lower-risk loans to mortgage companies while limiting exposure to higher-loss products like credit cards.

Additionally, First Horizon's pre-provision net revenue as a percentage of assets reached 4.7%, more than double the peer median of 2.3%. The bank benefits from counter-cyclical businesses including fixed income, loans to mortgage companies, and mortgage operations that provide stability during economic downturns.

First Horizon maintained strong capital ratios across all regulatory metrics. Beyond CET1, the bank's Tier 1 Risk-based Capital ratio reached 10.7% (vs. 6.0% required), Total Risk-based Capital ratio hit 12.8% (vs. 8.0% required), and Tier 1 Leverage ratio was 9.5% (vs. 4.0% required). These results incorporate ongoing $0.15 quarterly dividends throughout the stress scenario, indicating confidence in the bank's ability to maintain shareholder returns even during economic turbulence.

MEMPHIS, Tenn., July 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- First Horizon Corporation (NYSE: FHN) ("First Horizon" or "the Company") announced today its 2025 company-run capital stress test results. The 2025 test showed that, under hypothetical severe economic and business downturns, First Horizon would maintain capital ratios well above regulatory-required minimums. These internally generated results, which utilized the 2025 Dodd-Frank Act Stress Test Severely Adverse Scenario published by the Federal Reserve on February 5, 2025, reflect continued strong risk discipline.

"Our 2025 capital stress test results reflect the resilience of our diversified business model, prudent risk management, and strong capital position," said Chief Financial Officer Hope Dmuchowski. "Our minimum Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio of 9.7% is well above the required regulatory minimum of 4.5% and represents approximately $4 billion of additional pre-tax loss absorption capacity. These results demonstrate our ability to maintain safety and soundness and support clients across a broad range of economic scenarios with a near term target CET1 ratio of 10.75%."

First Horizon's loan portfolio stressed loss rate of 2.3% is significantly lower than the 6.1% loss rate from the Federal Reserve-published median DFAST result. FHN's lower loss rate benefits from its portfolio mix, including lower-loss loans to mortgage companies and limited exposure to higher-loss rate credit cards. Additionally, the Company's pre-provision net revenue as a percentage of total assets of 4.7% exceeded the peer median of 2.3%. FHN's stresses to pre-provision net revenue are buffered by its counter-cyclical businesses of fixed income, loans to mortgage companies, and mortgage.
