EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Summary of 2018 Second Quarter Results Compared to 2017 Second Quarter

For the quarter, we reported net income of $355 million , or $0.30 per common share, compared with $272 million , or $0.23 per common share, in the year-ago quarter ( see Table 1 ).

Fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) net interest income was $791 million , up $34 million , or 4% . The results reflected the benefit from a $4.6 billion , or 5% , increase in average earning asset s, partially offset by a two basis point decrease in the FTE net interest margin (NIM) to 3.29% . Average earning asset growth included a $4.5 billion , or 7% , increase in average loans and leases. Average earning asset yields increased 32 basis points year-over-year, driven by a 34 basis point improvement in loan yields. Average funding costs increased 44 basis points, although interest-bearing deposit costs only increased 28 basis points. The cost of short-term borrowings and long-term debt increased 104 basis points and 126 basis points, respectively. Embedded within these yields and costs, FTE net interest income during the 2018 second quarter included $19 million, or approximately 8 basis points, of purchase accounting impact compared to $34 million, or approximately 15 basis points, in the year-ago quarter.

The provision for credit losses increased $31 million year-over-year to $56 million in the 2018 second quarter. NCOs decreased $8 million to $28 million . NCOs represented an annualized 0.16% of average loans and leases, down from 0.21% in the year ago quarter.

Non-interest income was $336 million , up $11 million , or 3% , reflecting ongoing household / relationship acquisition and execution of our Optimal Customer Relationship (OCR) strategy. Trust and investment management services increased $5 million , or 14% , reflecting strong equity market performance. Other income decreased $5 million , or 10% , primarily reflecting a $3 million unfavorable Visa Class B derivative fair value adjustment.

Non-interest expense was $652 million , down $42 million , or 6% , due to the $50 million of acquisition-related Significant Items in the year-ago quarter compared with no Significant Items in the current quarter . Personnel costs increased $4 million , or 1% , primarily reflecting increased incentive compensation and benefits costs, partially offset by an $18 million decrease in acquisition-related Significant Items. Other expense decreased $10 million , or 17% , primarily reflecting a decrease in franchise taxes and $4 million of acquisition-related Significant Items in the year-ago quarter.

The tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 7.78% , up 37 basis points from a year-ago. The CET1 risk-based capital ratio was 10.53% at June 30, 2018 , compared to 9.88% a year ago. The regulatory Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 11.99% compared to 11.24% at June 30, 2017 .

The Company did not repurchase any common stock during the 2018 second quarter. Under the 2017 CCAR capital plan executed over the past four quarters, the Company repurchased $308 million of common stock at an average cost of $13.71 per share.

2018 Second Quarter versus 2017 Second Quarter

F TE net interest income for the 2018 second quarter increased $34 million , or 4% , from the 2017 second quarter . This reflected the benefit from the $4.6 billion , or 5% , increase in average earning assets, partially offset by a two basis point decrease in the FTE NIM to 3.29% . Average earning asset growth reflected a $4.5 billion , or 7% , increase in average loans and leases. Average earning asset yields increased 32 basis points year-over-year, driven by a 34 basis point improvement in loan yields. Average funding costs increased 44 basis points, although interest-bearing deposit costs only increased 28 basis points. The cost of short-term borrowings and long-term debt increased 104 basis points and 126 basis points, respectively. Embedded within these yields and costs, FTE net interest income during the 2018 second quarter included $19 million, or approximately 8 basis points, of purchase accounting impact compared to $34 million, or approximately 15 basis points, in the year-ago quarter.

Average earning assets for the 2018 second quarter increased $4.6 billion , or 5% , from the year-ago quarter, primarily reflecting a $4.5 billion , or 7% , increase in average loans and leases. Average residential mortgage loans increased $1.6 billion , or 21% , driven by an increase in lending officers and expansion into the Chicago market. Average automobile loans increased $0.9 billion , or 8% , driven by $6.2 billion of new production over the past year. Average commercial and industrial (C&I) loans increased $0.9 billion , or 3% , reflecting growth in middle market, asset finance, energy, and corporate banking. Average RV and marine finance loans increased $0.6 billion , or 31% , reflecting the success of the well-managed expansion of the acquired business into 17 new states over the past two years.

A verage total interest-bearing liabilities increased $4.8 billion , or 7% , from the year-ago quarter. Average total deposits for the 2018 second quarter increased $2.7 billion , or 4% , from the year-ago quarter, while average total core deposits increased $3.1 billion , or 4% . Average money market deposits increased $1.7 billion , or 9% , primarily reflecting growth in certain specialty commercial deposits and continued shifting commercial customer preferences for higher yielding deposit products. Average core CDs increased $1.6 billion , or 77% , reflecting initiatives to grow fixed-rate, term consumer deposits in light of the rising interest rate environment. Average demand deposits increased $0.5 billion , or 1% , primarily driven by a $0.3 billion, or 1%, increase in average commercial demand deposits. Average long-term debt increased $0.5 billion , or 6% , reflecting the issuance of $2.0 billion and maturity of $1.3 billion of senior debt over the past four quarters. Partially offsetting these increases, average savings and other domestic deposits decreased $0.7 billion , or 6% , reflecting consumer migration into higher yielding deposit products, such as money market and CDs.


2018 Second Quarter versus 2018 First Quarter

Compared to the 2018 first quarter , FTE net interest income increased $14 million , or 2% , primarily reflecting growth in average earning assets and the impact of day count. Average earning assets increased $1.0 billion , or 1% , sequentially, driven by a $1.4 billion or 2% , increase in average loans, partially offset by a $0.6 billion , or 2% , decrease in average securities. The NIM decreased 1 basis point. Average earning asset yields increased 16 basis points sequentially, driven by a 17 basis point increase in loan yields. Average funding costs increased 23 basis points, primarily driven by higher cost of long-term debt (up 83 basis points) and short-term borrowings (up 35 basis points). The increase in long-term debt is primarily driven by higher rates on variable rate hedges against fixed rate debt, some of which were terminated in the quarter, as well as derivative hedging ineffectiveness recognized during the 2018 second quarter. Average interest-bearing deposit costs increased 16 basis points, while noninterest-bearing funding improved 6 basis points. Day count negatively impacted the NIM by 1 basis point on a linked quarter basis. The purchase accounting impact on the net interest margin was approximately 8 basis points in the 2018 second quarter , unchanged from the prior quarter.

Compared to the 2018 first quarter , average earning assets increased $1.0 billion , or 1% , reflecting the $1.4 billion , or 2% , increase in average loans and leases. Average C&I loans increased $0.6 billion , or 2% , reflecting broad-based growth in middle market, asset finance, energy, and specialty. Average residential mortgage loans increased $0.5 billion , or 5% , driven by seasonality and the expansion of our home lending business. Average securities decreased $0.6 billion , or 2% , primarily due to runoff in the portfolio.

Compared to the 2018 first quarter , average total core deposits increased $2.0 billion , or 3% , primarily reflecting a $1.5 billion , or 65% , increase in average core CDs. Average demand deposits increased $0.3 billion , or 1% , primarily driven by a $0.2 billion, or 2%, increase in average consumer demand deposits. Average short-term borrowings decreased $2.1 billion , or 41% , as continued growth in core deposits reduced reliance on wholesale funding.

Average funding costs increased 36 basis points, primarily driven by higher cost of short-term borrowings (up 91 basis points) and long-term debt (up 93 basis points). Average interest-bearing deposit costs increased 23 basis points, while noninterest-bearing funding improved 8 basis points.


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 credit losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio and the portfolio of unfunded loan commitments and letters-of-credit.

The provision for credit losses for the 2018 second quarter was $56 million , which increased $31 million , or 124% , compared to the second quarter 2017 . On a year-to-date basis, provision for credit losses for the first six-month period of 2018 was $122 million , an increase of $29 million , or 31% , compared to year-ago period. The increase from the 2018 first quarter and prior year-to-date provision for credit losses was primarily the result of allowance growth attributed to portfolio balance expansion and risk rating migration within the commercial loan portfolio, partially offset by lower NCOs.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes in the 2018 second quarter was $57 million . This compared with a provision for income taxes of $79 million in the 2017 second quarter and $59 million in the 2018 first quarter . The provision for income taxes for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 was $116 million and $138 million , respectively. All periods included the benefits from tax-exempt income, tax-advantaged investments, general business credits, investments in qualified affordable housing projects, excess tax deductions for stock-based compensation, and capital losses. The 2018 second quarter and 2018 first quarter also included expense for nondeductible FDIC insurance premiums. The effective tax rates for the 2018 second quarter , 2017 second quarter , and 2018 first quarter were 13.8% , 22.4% , and 15.3% , respectively. The effective tax rates for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 were 14.6% and 22.3% , respectively. The variance between the 2018 second quarter compared to the 2017 second quarter , and the six month period ended June 30, 2018 compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2017 in the provision for income taxes and effective tax rates relates primarily to the impact of the TCJA. The net federal deferred tax liability was $141 million and the net state deferred tax asset was $24 million at June 30, 2018 .

We file income tax returns with the IRS and various state, city, and foreign jurisdictions. The IRS is currently examining our 2010 and 2011 consolidated federal income tax returns. While the statute of limitations remains open for tax years 2012 through 2016, the IRS has advised that tax years 2012 through 2014 will not be audited, and has begun the examination of the 2015 federal income tax return in second quarter 2018. Various state and other jurisdictions remain open to examination, including Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Illinois.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND CAPITAL

We use a multi-faceted approach to risk governance. It begins with the board of directors defining our risk appetite as aggregate moderate-to-low. Risk awareness, identification and assessment, reporting, and active management are key elements in overall risk management. Controls include, among others, effective segregation of duties, access, authorization and reconciliation procedures, as well as staff education and a disciplined assessment process.

We believe that our primary risk exposures are credit, market, liquidity, operational and compliance. More information on risk can be found in the Risk Factors section included in Item 1A of our 2017 Form 10-K and subsequent filings with the SEC. The MD&A included in our 2017 Form 10-K should be read in conjunction with this MD&A as this discussion provides only material updates to the Form 10-K. This MD&A should also be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes and other information contained in this report. Our definition, philosophy, and approach to risk management have not materially changed from the discussion presented in the 2017 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 credit risk associated with our AFS, HTM, and other securities portfolios ( see Note 4 , Note 5 , and Note 6 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 trading activities. While there is credit risk associated with derivative activity, we believe this exposure is minimal.

We continue to focus on the identification, monitoring, and management 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 quantitative measurement capabilities utilizing external data sources, enhanced 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 solutions for delinquent or stressed borrowers.

Our loan portfolio is composed of a managed mix of consumer and commercial credits. At the corporate level, we manage the overall credit exposure and portfolio composition in part via a credit concentration policy. The policy designates specific loan types, collateral types, and loan structures to be formally tracked and assigned maximum exposure limits as a percentage of capital. C&I lending by NAICS categories, specific limits for CRE project types, loans secured by residential real estate, shared national credit exposure, and designated high risk loan definitions represent examples of specifically tracked components of our concentration management process. There are no identified concentrations that exceed the assigned exposure limit. Our concentration management policy is approved by the ROC of the Board and is one of the strategies used to ensure a high quality, well diversified portfolio that is consistent with our overall objective of maintaining an aggregate moderate-to-low risk profile. Changes to existing concentration limits require the approval of the ROC prior to implementation, incorporating specific information relating to the potential impact on the overall portfolio composition and performance metrics.

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, NALs, and 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.


20

Table of Contents


Credit quality performance in the 2018 second quarter reflected continued overall positive results with continued low net charge-offs. Total NCOs were $28 million , or 0.16% annualized, of average total loans and leases.  Net charge-offs decreased by $10 million from the prior quarter, due to a decrease in net charge-offs in the C&I and consumer portfolios. There was a 2% decline in NPAs from the prior quarter. NPAs to total loans and leases remains low at 0.57% . The ALLL to total loans and leases ratio increased 1 basis points to 1.02% . The ACL to total loans and leases ratio increased 2 basis points to 1.15% .

NPAs, NALs, AND TDRs

(This section should be read in conjunction with Note 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and "Credit Quality" section of our 2017 Form 10-K.)

NPAs and NALs

Of the $232 million of C&I and CRE-related NALs at June 30, 2018 , $152 million, or 66%, represented loans that were less than 30-days past due, demonstrating our continued commitment to proactive credit risk management. With the exception of residential mortgage loans guaranteed by government organizations which continue to accrue interest, first-lien loans secured by residential mortgage collateral 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, RV and marine finance and other consumer loans are generally charged-off at 120-days past due.

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 could be returned to accrual status.

The following table reflects period-end NALs and NPAs detail for each of the last five quarters:

2018 Second Quarter versus 2017 Fourth Quarter .

Total NPAs increased by $23 million , or 6% , compared with December 31, 2017 primarily related to an increase in the C&I portfolio, partially offset by a decrease in nonperforming loans secured by residential properties. The commercial increase was centered in a small number of credits from diverse industries.

TDR Loans

(This section should be read in conjunction with Note 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and TDR Loans section of our 2017 Form 10-K.)

Over the past five quarters, the accruing component of the total TDR balance has been approximately 83%, indicating there is no identified credit loss and the borrowers continue to make their monthly payments. In fact, over 75% of the $479 million of accruing TDRs secured by residential real estate (Residential mortgage and Home equity in Table 13 ) are current on their required payments.  In addition, over 60% of the accruing pool have had no delinquency in the past 12 months. There is limited migration from the accruing to non-accruing components, and virtually all of the charge-offs come from the non-accruing TDR balances.

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

Overall TDRs decreased slightly in the quarter. The Commercial accruing TDR level has increased over the five quarter period as Huntington continues to proactively work with our Commercial borrowing relationships that require assistance. The resulting loan structures enable our borrowers to meet their commitments and Huntington to retain earning assets. The accruing component of TDRs meet the well secured definition and have demonstrated a period of satisfactory payment performance.

ACL

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

Our total credit reserve is comprised of two different components, 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 ACL methodology committee 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 or qualitative adjustments, while reductions reflect charge-offs (net of recoveries), decreased risk l evels resulting from loan risk-rating upgrades, or the sale of loans. The AULC is determined by


22

Table of Contents


applying the same quantitative reserve determination process to the unfunded portion of the loan exposures adjusted by an applicable funding expectation.

Loans originated for investment are stated at their principal amount outstanding adjusted for partial charge-offs, and net deferred loan fees and costs.

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 increased year over year, all of the relevant benchmarks remain strong.

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

2018 Second Quarter versus 2017 Fourth Quarter

At June 30, 2018 , the ALLL was $741 million , compared to $691 million at December 31, 2017 . The $50 million , or 7% , increase in the ALLL relates to growth in reserve levels associated with new loan originations as well as an increase in NALs in the Commercial portfolio. The ALLL to total loans ratio was 1.02% at June 30, 2018 and 0.99% at December 31, 2017 . The ACL to total loans ratio was 1.15% at June 30, 2018 and 1.11% at December 31, 2017 . In addition to the ALLL contribution, the ACL increased primarily as the result of increased expectations on future line utilization within our commercial portfolio. We believe these ratios are appropriate given the overall moderate-to-low risk profile of our loan portfolio and its coverage levels reflect the quality of our portfolio and the current operating environment. We continue to focus on early identification of loans with changes in credit metrics and have proactive action plans for these loans.

NCOs

A 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 where that asset is the sole source of repayment. Additionally, discharged, collateral dependent non-reaffirmed debt in Chapter 7 bankruptcy filings will result in a charge-off to estimated collateral value, less anticipated selling costs at the time of discharge.

C&I and CRE loans are either charged-off or written down to net realizable value by 90-days past due with the exception of administrative small ticket lease delinquencies. Automobile loans, RV and marine finance, and other consumer loans are generally fully 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. The remaining balance is in delinquent status until a modification can be completed, or the loan goes through the foreclosure process.

In assessing NCO trends, it is helpful to understand the process of how commercial loans are treated as they deteriorate over time. The ALLL is established consistent with the level of risk associated with the commercial portfolio's original underwriting. As a part of our normal portfolio management process for commercial loans, loans within the portfolio are periodically reviewed and the ALLL is increased or decreased based on the updated risk ratings. For TDRs and individually assessed impaired loans, a specific reserve is established based on the discounted projected cash flows or collateral value of the specific loan. Charge-offs, if necessary, are generally recognized in a period after the specific ALLL is established. Consumer loans are treated in much the same manner as commercial loans, with increasing reserve factors applied based on the risk characteristics of the loan, although specific reserves are not identified for consumer loans, except for TDRs. 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.

2018 Second Quarter versus 2018 First Quarter

NCOs were an annualized 0.16% of average loans and leases in the current quarter, a decrease from 0.21% in the 2018 first quarter , and below our average through-the-cycle target range of 0.35% - 0.55%. Annualized NCOs for the C&I portfolio decreased significantly to 0.04% in the current quarter compared to 2018 first quarter based on an increased level of recovery activity. Consumer charge-offs were lower for the quarter, primarily driven by seasonality trends across the consumer portfolio, consistent with our expectations. Given the low level of C&I and CRE NCOs, we have experienced and continue to expect some volatility on a quarter-to-quarter comparison basis.

2018 First Six Months versus 2017 First Six Months

NCOs were $66 million , a decline of $9 million when compared with the same period in the prior year. Given the low level of C&I and CRE NCO's, we expect some continued volatility on a period-to-period comparison basis.

Market Risk

(This section should be read in conjunction with the "Market Risk" section of our 2017 Form 10-K for our on-going market risk management processes.)

Market risk refers to potential losses arising from changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices and commodity prices, including the correlation among these factors and their volatility. When the value of an instrument is tied to such external factors, the holder faces market risk. We are primarily exposed to interest rate risk as a result of offering a wide array of financial products to our customers and secondarily to price risk from trading securities, securities owned by our broker-dealer subsidiary, foreign exchange positions, equity investments, and investments in securities backed by mortgage loans.

We are within our board of director's policy limits for the +100 and +200 basis point scenarios. There is no policy limit for the -25 basis point scenario. The EVE depicts a moderate asset sensitive balance sheet profile, positioning us for rising interest rates.

MSRs

(This section should be read in conjunction with Note 7 of Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

At June 30, 2018 , we had a total of $215 million of capitalized MSRs representing the right to service $20 billion in mortgage loans. Of this $215 million , $11 million was recorded using the fair value method and $204 million was recorded using the amortization method.

MSR fair values are 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 reduced by prepayments. Prepayments usually increase when mortgage interest rates decline and decrease when mortgage interest rates rise. We have employed hedging strategies to reduce the risk of MSR fair value changes or impairment. However, volatile changes in interest rates can diminish the effectiveness of these economic hedges. We report changes in the MSR value net of hedge-related trading activity in the mortgage banking income category of noninterest income. Changes in fair value between reporting dates are recognized 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, which may result in a lower probability of prepayments or impairment. MSR assets are included in servicing rights 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 subsidiary, foreign exchange positions and equity investments. 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.

Liquidity Risk

(This section should be read in conjunction with the "Liquidity Risk" section of our 2017 Form 10-K for our on-going liquidity risk management processes.)

Our primary source of liquidity is our core deposit base. Core deposits comprised approximately 96% of total deposits at June 30, 2018 . We also have available unused wholesale sources of liquidity, including advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati, issuance through dealers in the capital markets, and access to certificates of deposit issued through brokers. Liquidity is further provided by unencumbered, or unpledged, investment securities that totaled $15.2 billion as of June 30, 2018 .

Bank Liquidity and Sources of Funding

Our primary sources of funding for the Bank are retail and commercial core deposits. At June 30, 2018 , these core deposits funded 72% of total assets ( 105% of total loans). Other sources of liquidity include non-core deposits, FHLB advances, wholesale debt instruments, and securitizations. Demand deposit overdrafts that have been reclassified as loan balances were $24 million and $22 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively.

The Bank maintains borrowing capacity at the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window. The Bank does not consider borrowing capacity from the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window as a primary source of liquidity. Total loans pledged to the Federal Reserve Discount Window and the FHLB are $34.1 billion and $31.7 billion at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , 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, asset securitization or sale. Sources of wholesale funding include other domestic deposits of $250,000 or more, brokered deposits and negotiable CDs, short-term borrowings, and long-term debt. At June 30, 2018 , total wholesale funding was $16.0 billion , a decrease from $17.9 billion at December 31, 2017 . The decrease from year-end primarily relates to a decrease in short-term borrowings.

Liquidity Coverage Ratio

At June 30, 2018 , the Bank is in compliance with the LCR requirements and management believes it has sufficient liquidity to meet its cash flow obligations for the foreseeable future.

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 dividends and 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 and equity securities.

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the parent company had $2.9 billion and $1.6 billion , respectively, in cash and cash equivalents.

During the 2018 first quarter, Huntington elected to effect the conversion of all of its outstanding 8.50% Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock into common stock, and issued $500 million of Series E Preferred Stock. See Note 10 for further information.

On July 17, 2018 , the board of directors declared a quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.14 per common share. The dividend is payable on October 1, 2018 , to shareholders of record on September 17, 2018 . Based on the current quarterly dividend of $0.14 per common share, cash demands required for common stock dividends are estimated to be approximately $155 million per quarter. On July 17, 2018 , the board of directors declared a quarterly Series B, Series C, Series D, and Series E Preferred Stock dividend payable on October 15, 2018 to shareholders of record on October 1, 2018 . Cash demands required for Series B are expected to be less than $1 million per quarter. Cash demands required for Series C, Series D and Series E are expected to be approximately $2 million , $9 million and $7 million per quarter, respectively.

During the first six months of 2018 , the Bank paid a preferred dividend of $22 million and common stock dividend of $549 million to the holding company. To meet any additional liquidity needs, the parent company may issue debt or equity securities from time to time.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

Operational Risk

Operational risk is the risk of loss due to human error; inadequate or failed internal systems and controls, including the use of financial or other quantitative methodologies that may not adequately predict future results; 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. We actively and continuously monitor cyberattacks such as attempts related to online deception and loss of sensitive customer data. We evaluate internal systems, processes and controls to mitigate loss from cyber-attacks and, to date, have not experienced any material losses.

Our objective for managing cyber security risk is to avoid or minimize the impacts of external threat events or other efforts to penetrate our systems. We work to achieve this objective by hardening networks and systems against attack, and by diligently managing visibility and monitoring controls within our data and communications environment to recognize events and respond before the attacker has the opportunity to plan and execute on its own goals. To this end we employ a set of defense in-depth strategies, which include efforts to make us less attractive as a target and less vulnerable to threats, while investing in threat analytic capabilities for rapid detection and response. Potential concerns related to cyber security may be escalated to our board-level Technology Committee, as appropriate. As a complement to the overall cyber security risk management, we use a number of internal training methods, both formally through mandatory courses and informally through written communications and other updates. Internal policies and procedures have been implemented to encourage the reporting of potential phishing attacks or other security risks. We also use third-party services to test the effectiveness of our cyber security risk management framework, and any such third parties are required to comply with our policies regarding information security and confidentiality.

To mitigate operational risks, we have an Operational Risk Committee, a Legal, Regulatory, and Compliance Committee, and a Third Party Risk Management 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


29

Table of Contents


issues. In addition, we have a Model Risk Oversight Committee that is responsible for policies and procedures describing how model risk is evaluated and managed and the application of the governance process to implement these practices throughout the enterprise. These committees report any significant findings and recommendations to the Risk Management Committee. Potential concerns may be escalated to our ROC of the Board, as appropriate. Significant findings or issues are escalated by the Third Party Risk Management Committee to the Technology Committee of the Board, as appropriate.

The goal of this framework is to implement effective operational risk techniques and strategies; minimize operational, fraud, and legal losses; minimize the impact of inadequately designed models and enhance our overall performance.

Compliance Risk

Financial institutions are subject to many laws, rules, and regulations at both the federal and state levels. These broad-based laws, rules, and regulations include, but are not limited to, expectations relating to anti-money laundering, lending limits, client privacy, fair lending, prohibitions against unfair, deceptive or abusive acts or practices, protections for military members as they enter active duty, and community reinvestment. Additionally, the volume and complexity of recent regulatory changes have increased our overall compliance risk. As such, we utilize various resources to help ensure expectations are met, including a team of compliance experts dedicated to ensuring our conformance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. Our colleagues receive training for several broad-based laws and regulations including, but not limited to, anti-money laundering and customer privacy. Additionally, colleagues engaged in lending activities receive training for laws and regulations related to flood disaster protection, equal credit opportunity, fair lending, and/or 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.

The following table presents certain regulatory capital data at both the consolidated and Bank levels for each of the periods presented:

Over the past four quarters, the Company repurchased $308 million of common stock at an average cost of $13.71 per share. In addition, during the 2018 first quarter, $363 million of 8.5% Series A preferred equity was converted into common equity, and subsequently $500 million of 5.7% Series E preferred equity was issued.

Shareholders' Equity

We generate shareholders' equity primarily through the retention of earnings, net of dividends and share repurchases. 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 $11.5 billion at June 30, 2018 , an increase of $0.7 billion when compared with December 31, 2017 .

On June 28, 2018, Huntington was notified by the Federal Reserve that it had no objection to Huntington's proposed capital actions included in Huntington's capital plan submitted in the 2018 CCAR. These actions included a 27% increase in quarterly dividend per common share to $0.14, starting in the third quarter of 2018, the repurchase of up to $1.068 billion of common stock over the next four quarters (July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019), and maintaining dividends on the outstanding classes of preferred stock and trust preferred securities. Any capital actions, including those contemplated in the above announced actions, are subject to consideration and evaluation by Huntington's Board of Directors.

On July 17, 2018, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $1.068 billion of common shares over the four quarters through the 2019 second quarter.


On July 27, 2018, Huntington entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement for the repurchase of approximately $400 million of its outstanding common shares.

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.

Share Repurchases

From time to time the board of directors authorizes the Company to repurchase shares of our common stock. Although we announce when the board of directors 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 annual capital plan. Huntington repurchased 3.0 million shares during the first six-months of 2018. This completed the remaining repurchase of shares authorized by the Board of Directors on July 19, 2017.

BUSINESS SEGMENT DISCUSSION

Overview

Our business segments are based on our internally-aligned segment leadership structure, which is how we monitor results and assess performance. We have four major business segments: Consumer and Business Banking , Commercial Banking , Vehicle Finance , and Regional Banking and The Huntington Private Client Group (RBHPCG) . The Treasury / Other function includes technology and operations, other unallocated assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense.

Business segment results are determined based upon our management practices, 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.



31

Table of Contents


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 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 reported Significant Items, 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 income to the business segments. The intent of the FTP methodology is to transfer 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 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). A new methodology for establishing FTP rates was adopted in 2017, therefore, prior period amounts have been restated to reflect the new methodology.

Net Income by Business Segment

Net income by business segment for the six-month periods ending June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 is presented in the following table:

Treasury / Other

The Treasury / Other function includes revenue and expense related to assets, liabilities, and equity not directly assigned or allocated to one of the four business segments. Assets include investment securities and bank owned life insurance.

Net interest income includes the impact of administering our investment securities portfolios, the net impact of derivatives used to hedge interest rate sensitivity as well as the financial impact associated with our FTP methodology, as described above. Noninterest income includes miscellaneous fee income not allocated to other business segments, such as bank owned life insurance income and securities and trading asset gains or losses. Noninterest expense includes certain corporate administrative, and other miscellaneous expenses not allocated to other business segments. The provision for income taxes for the business segments is calculated at a statutory 21% tax rate and a 35% percent tax rate for periods prior to January 1, 2018, although 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 at the time to allocate income taxes to the business segments.

2018 First Six Months versus 2017 First Six Months

Consumer and Business Banking , including Home Lending, reported net income of $213 million in the first six-month period of 2018 , an increase of $59 million , or 38% , compared to the year-ago period. Segment net interest income increased $49 million , or 6% , primarily due to an increase in total average loans and deposits. The provision for credit losses increased $8 million , or 16% . Noninterest income increased $6 million , or 2% , due to an increase in card and payment processing income and service charges on deposit accounts, as a result of higher card-related transaction volumes. Noninterest expense increased $14 million, or 2% due to increased personnel costs and allocated expenses.

Home Lending, an operating unit of Consumer and Business Banking , reflects the result of the origination and servicing of mortgage loans less referral fees and net interest income for mortgage banking products distributed by the retail branch network and other business segments. Home Lending reported a loss of $7 million in the first six-month period of 2018 , a decrease of $12 million , or 240% , compared to the year-ago period. Noninterest expense increased $15 million, or 22%, as a result of higher allocated indirect costs and higher personnel and loan origination expense. This is the result of higher loan origination volume and increased headcount related to sales expansion initiatives. Total revenues remained largely unchanged due to an improvement in net interest income, offset by a reduction to noninterest income.

2018 First Six Months versus 2017 First Six Months

Commercial Banking reported net income of $245 million in the first six-month period of 2018 , an increase of $28 million , or 13% , compared to the year-ago period. Segment net interest income decreased $3 million , or 1% , primarily due to a 21 basis point decrease in net interest margin driven by a decline in loan and lease spreads partially offset by an increase in deposit spreads. Average deposits increased 7% and average loans and leases increased 3% . Noninterest income increased $15 million , or 11% , largely driven by an increase in capital markets related revenues, equipment finance related fee income, and loan commitment and other fees, partially offset by a reduction in operating lease income. Noninterest expense increased $13 million , or 6% , primarily due to personnel expense, allocated overhead, and SAD related losses, partially offset by a decrease in operating lease expense and outside data processing and other services.

2018 First Six Months versus 2017 First Six Months

Vehicle Finance reported net income of $85 million in the first six-month period of 2018 , an increase of $8 million , or 10% , compared to the year-ago period, primarily reflecting the decrease in the provision for income taxes. Segment net interest income decreased $11 million or 5% , due to a 34 basis point decrease in the net interest margin primarily reflecting the continued run off of the acquired loan portfolios and the related purchase accounting impact. This decrease was offset in part by a $1.6 billion increase in average loan balances. Average automobile loans increased $1.0 billion, while average RV and marine finance loans increased $0.6 billion reflecting the expansion of this acquired business into 17 new states. Noninterest income decreased $2 million , or 25% , primarily due to lower recoveries of acquired loans that were charged-off prior to acquisition as well as a decrease in net servicing income on securitized automobile loans . Noninterest expense was unchanged from a year ago.

RBHPCG reported net income of $52 million in the first six-month period of 2018 , an increase of $18 million , or 53% , compared to the year-ago period. Segment net interest income increased $8 million or 10% due to a 36 basis point increase in net interest margin and a 12% increase in average loans and leases. Noninterest income increased $4 million , or 4% , primarily reflecting increased trust and investment management revenue as a result of an increase in trust assets and assets under management. Noninterest expense decreased $1 million , or 1% , as a result of decreased legal and professional fees and amortization of intangibles.


ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES

Forward-Looking Statements

This report, including MD&A, contains certain forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, certain plans, expectations, goals, projections, and statements, which are not historical facts and 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.


35

Table of Contents


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: changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions; uncertainty in U.S. fiscal and monetary policy, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; volatility and disruptions in global capital and credit markets; movements in interest rates; competitive pressures on product pricing and services; success, impact, and timing of our business strategies, including market acceptance of any new products or services implementing our "Fair Play" banking philosophy; the nature, extent, timing, and results of governmental actions, examinations, reviews, reforms, regulations, and interpretations, including those related to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Basel III regulatory capital reforms, as well as those involving the OCC, Federal Reserve, FDIC, and CFPB; and other factors that may affect our future results. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, which are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and available in the "Investor Relations" section of our website, http://www.huntington.com , under the heading "Publications and Filings" and in other documents we file with the SEC.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based on information available at that time. We do not assume any 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-GAAP Financial Measures

This document contains GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP financial measures where management believes it to be helpful in understanding Huntington's results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found herein.

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, 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.

Fully-Taxable Equivalent Basis

Interest income, yields, and ratios on a FTE basis are considered non-GAAP financial measures.  Management believes net interest income on a FTE basis provides an insightful picture of the interest margin for comparison purposes.  The FTE basis also allows management to assess the comparability of revenue arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources.  The FTE basis assumes a federal statutory tax rate of 21 percent and 35 percent for the 2018 and 2017 periods, respectively. We encourage 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.

Table of Contents


Non-Regulatory Capital Ratios

In ad dition to capital ratios defined by banking regulators, the Company considers various other measures when evaluating capital utiliz ation and adequacy, including:

Tangible common equity to tangible assets, and

Tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets using Basel III definitions.

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 goodwill and other intangible assets, the nature and extent of which varies among different financial services companies. These ratios are not defined in GAAP or federal banking regulations. As a result, these non-regulatory capital ratios disclosed by the Company are 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

More information on risk is discussed in the Risk Factors section included in Item 1A of our 2017 Form 10-K. Additional information regarding risk factors can also be found in the Risk Management and Capital discussion of this report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Significant Estimates

Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to establish accounting policies and make estimates that affect amounts reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements. Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our December 31, 2017 Form 10-K, as supplemented by this report including this MD&A, describes the significant accounting policies we used in our Consolidated Financial Statements.

An accounting estimate requires assumptions and judgments about uncertain matters that could have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements. Estimates are made under facts and circumstances at a point in time, and changes in those facts and circumstances could produce results substantially different from those estimates. Our most significant accounting estimates relate to our ACL, valuation of financial instruments, contingent liabilities, income taxes, and deferred tax assets/liabilities. These significant accounting estimates and their related application are discussed in our December 31, 2017 Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Developments

Note 2 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements discusses new accounting pronouncements adopted during 2018 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.

Fair Value

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, additional discussion regarding fair value measurements, and a brief description of how fair value is determined for categories that have unobservable inputs, can be found in Note 14 of 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 statement 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 annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted. The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in Huntington's 2017 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 flow 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.

Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Summary of guidance

Effects on financial statements

ASU 2016-02 - Leases.

Issued February 2016


- New lease accounting model for lessors and lessees. For lessees, virtually all leases will be required to be recognized on the balance sheet by recording a right-of-use asset and lease liability. Subsequent accounting for leases varies depending on whether the lease is classified as an operating lease or a finance lease.


- Accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under the existing guidance.


- Requires additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures with the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.

- Effective for the fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2018, with early application permitted.


- Management intends to adopt the guidance on January 1, 2019, and has formed a working group comprised of associates from different disciplines, including Procurement, Real Estate, and Credit Administration, to evaluate the impact of the standard where Huntington is a lessee or lessor, as well as any impact to borrower's financial statements.


- Management is currently assessing the impact of the new guidance on Huntington's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including working with associates engaged in the procurement of goods and services used in the entity's operations, and reviewing contractual arrangements for embedded leases in an effort to identify Huntington's full lease population.


- Huntington will recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for virtually all of its operating lease commitments. The amounts of right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities recorded upon adoption will be based, primarily, on the present value of unpaid future minimum lease payments as of January 1, 2019. Those amounts will also be impacted by assumptions around renewals and/or extensions, and the interest rate used to discount those future lease obligations. As of December 31, 2017, the Company reported approximately $315 million in minimum lease payments due under such agreements January 1, 2019 forward. While these leases represent a majority of the leases within the scope of the standard, the lease portfolio is subject to change as a result of the execution of new leases and termination of existing leases prior to the effective date, as well as the identification of potential embedded and other leases.

ASU 2016-13 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses.

Issued June 2016

- Eliminates the probable recognition threshold for credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost.


- Requires those financial assets to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected (i.e., net of expected credit losses).


- Measurement of expected credit losses should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount.

- Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.


- Adoption will be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective.


- Management intends to adopt the guidance on January 1, 2020 and has formed a working group comprised of teams from different disciplines including credit, finance, and risk management to evaluate the requirements of the new standard and the impact it will have on our processes.


- Huntington is currently in the process of developing credit models as well as accounting, reporting, and governance processes to comply with the new credit reserve requirements.

Summary of guidance

Effects on financial statements

ASU 2017-04 - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.

Issued January 2017

- Simplifies the goodwill impairment test by eliminating Step 2 of the goodwill impairment process, which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of its goodwill by assigning fair value to all its assets and liabilities.


- Entities will instead recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value.


- Entities will still have the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.

- Effective for annual and interim goodwill tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted.


- The amendment is not expected to have a significant impact on Huntington's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Huntington maintains two reserves, both of which reflect Management's judgment regarding the appropriate level necessary to absorb probable and estimable credit losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio as of the balance sheet date: 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. See Note 1 "Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 for a description of the accounting policies related to the ACL.

The ALLL is increased through a provision for credit losses that is charged to earnings, based on Management's quarterly evaluation and is reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.

The following table presents ALLL and AULC activity by portfolio segment for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 .

Credit Quality Indicators

See Note 4 "Loans / Leases and Allowance for Credit Losses" to the consolidated financial statements of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 for a description of the credit quality indicators Huntington utilizes for monitoring credit quality and for determining an appropriate ACL level.

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 internally defined categories of credit grades:

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

OLEM - The credit risk may be relatively minor yet represents a risk given certain specific circumstances. If the potential weaknesses are not monitored or mitigated, the loan may weaken or the collateral may be inadequate to protect Huntington's position in the future. For these reasons, Huntington considers the loans to be potential problem loans.

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.


Loans are generally assigned a category of " Pass " rating upon initial approval and subsequently updated as appropriate based on the borrowers financial performance.

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

Security Impairment

Huntington evaluates the available-for-sale securities portfolio for impairment on a quarterly basis by conducting a comprehensive security-level assessment on all available-for-sale securities. Impairment would exist when the present value of the expected cash flows are not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis at the balance sheet date. Under these circumstances, any credit impairment would be recognized in earnings. As of June 30, 2018 , Huntington has evaluated available-for-sale securities with gross unrealized losses for impairment and concluded no 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 of held-to-maturity securities at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 .

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.

MSR values are highly sensitive to movement 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 economically 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.

For MSRs under the amortization method, a summary of key assumptions and the sensitivity of the MSR value to changes in these assumptions at June 30, 2018 , and December 31, 2017 follows:

Additionally, at June 30, 2018 and 2017, Huntington held MSRs recorded using the fair value method of $11 million and $13 million , respectively.

Total servicing, late and other ancillary fees included in mortgage banking income were $15 million and $14 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , total servicing, late and other ancillary fees included in mortgage banking income were $29 million and $28 million . The unpaid principal balance of residential mortgage loans serviced for third parties was $20.2 billion and $19.8 billion at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively.

Automobile Loans

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 payoffs are faster than expected, then future value could be impaired.

Series B, D and C of preferred stock has a liquidation value and redemption price per share of $1,000 , plus any declared and unpaid dividends. Series E stock has a liquidation value and redemption price per share of $100,000 , plus any declared and unpaid dividends. All preferred stock has no stated maturity and redemption is solely at the option of the Company. Under current rules, any redemption of the preferred stock is subject to prior approval of the FRB.

Preferred A Stock conversion

On February 21, 2018 , Huntington elected to effect the conversion of all of its outstanding 8.50% Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock into common stock pursuant to the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock. On February 22, 2018 , each share of Series A Preferred Stock was converted into 83.668 shares of Common Stock. Upon conversion, the Series A Preferred Stock is no longer outstanding and all rights with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock were ceased and terminated, except the right to receive the number of whole shares and any required cash-in-lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock. Following the conversion, the Series A Preferred Stock shares were delisted from trading on NASDAQ.

Preferred E Stock issued and outstanding

During the 2018 first quarter, Huntington issued $500 million of preferred stock. Huntington issued 500,000 depositary shares, each depositary shares representing a 1/100th ownership interest in a share of 5.700% Series E Fixed-to-Floating Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (Preferred E Stock), par value $0.01 per share, with a liquidation preference of $100,000 per share (equivalent to $1,000 per depositary share). Each holder of a depositary share will be entitled to all proportional rights and preferences of the Preferred E Stock (including dividend, voting, redemption, and liquidation rights). Costs of $5 million related to the issuance of the Preferred E Stock are reported as a direct deduction from the face amount of the stock.

Dividends on the Preferred E Stock will be non-cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears, when, as and if authorized by the Company's board of directors or a duly authorized committee of the board and declared by the Company, at an annual rate of 5.700% per year on the liquidation preference of $100,000 per share, equivalent to $1,000 per depositary share. The dividend payment dates will be the fifteenth day of each January, April, July and October, commencing on July 15, 2018, or the next business day if any such day is not a business day.

The Preferred E Stock has no maturity date. Huntington may redeem the Preferred E Stock at its option, (i) in whole or in part, from time to time, on any dividend payment date on or after April 15, 2023 or (ii) in whole but not in part, within 90 days following a change in laws or regulations, in each case, at a redemption price equal to $100,000 per share (equivalent to $1,000 per depositary share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends, without regard to any undeclared dividends, on the Series E Preferred Stock prior to the date fixed for redemption. If Huntington redeems the Preferred E Stock, the depositary will redeem a proportional number of depositary shares. Neither the holders of Preferred E Stock nor holders of depositary shares will have the right to require the redemption or repurchase of the Preferred E Stock or the depositary shares. Any redemption of the Preferred E Stock is subject to Huntington's receipt of any required prior approval by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

11 . 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 the Company's convertible preferred stock.

Potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share during periods in which the effect would be antidilutive.

On February 22, 2018, Huntington converted all its outstanding 8.50% Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock to 30.3 million shares of common stock. Following the conversion, the additional shares were included in average common shares issued and outstanding. The 2018 total diluted average common shares issued and outstanding was impacted by using the if-converted method. The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six -month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was as follows:

There were approximately 2.5 million and 2.6 million of options to purchase shares of common stock outstanding for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. There were approximately 1.6 million and 1.8 million of options to purchase shares of common stock outstanding for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. These options were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be antidilutive.

12 . NONINTEREST INCOME

Huntington earns a variety of revenue including interest and fees from customers as well as revenues from non-customers. Certain sources of revenue are recognized within interest or fee income and are outside of the scope of ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). Other sources of revenue fall within the scope of ASC 606 and are generally recognized within ‘noninterest income'. These revenues are included within various sections of the consolidated financial statements. The following table shows Huntington's total noninterest income segregated between contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 and those within the scope of other GAAP Topics.

Huntington recognizes revenue when the performance obligations related to the transfer of goods or services under the terms of a contract are satisfied. Some obligations are satisfied at a point in time while others are satisfied over a period of time. Revenue is recognized as the amount of consideration to which Huntington expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. When consideration includes a variable component, the amount of consideration attributable to variability is included in the transaction price only to the extent it is probable that significant revenue recognized will not be reversed when uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Generally, the variability relating to the consideration is explicitly stated in the contracts, but may also arise from Huntington's customer business practice, for example, waiving certain fees related to customer's deposit accounts such as NSF fees. Huntington's contracts generally do not contain terms that require significant judgement to determine the variability impacting the transaction price.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration Huntington expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring goods or services. Revenue is segregated based on the nature of product and services offered as part of contractual arrangements. Revenue from contracts with customers is broadly segregated as follows:

Service charges on deposit accounts include fees and other charges Huntington receives to provide various services, including but not limited to, maintaining an account with a customer, providing overdraft services, wire transfer, transferring funds, and accepting and executing stop-payment orders. The consideration includes both fixed (e.g., account maintenance fee) and transaction fees (e.g., wire-transfer fee). The fixed fee is recognized over a period of time while the transaction fee is recognized when a specific service (e.g., execution of wire-transfer) is rendered to the customer. Huntington may, from time to time, waive certain fees (e.g., NSF fee) for customers but generally does not reduce the transaction price to reflect variability for future reversals due to the insignificance of the amounts. Waiver of fees reduces the revenue in the period the waiver is granted to the customer.

Cards and payment processing income includes interchange fees earned on debit cards and credit cards. All other fees (e.g. annual fees), and interest income are recognized in accordance with ASC 310. Huntington recognizes interchange fees for services performed related to authorization and settlement of a cardholder's transaction with a merchant. Revenue is recognized when a cardholder's transaction is approved and settled. The revenue may be constrained due to inherent uncertainty related to cardholder's right to return goods and services but the uncertainty is resolved within a short period of time (generally within 30 days) and the amount of returns was not material for the reporting period ended June 30, 2018 . Revenue is not adjusted for such variability, rather returns reduce the amount of interchange revenue in the period the return is made by the customer.

Certain volume or transaction based interchange expenses (net of rebates) paid to the payment network reduce the interchange revenue and are presented net on the income statement. Similarly, rewards payable under a reward program to cardholders are recognized as a reduction of the transaction price and are presented net against the interchange revenue.

Trust and investment management services includes fee income generated from personal, corporate and institutional customers. Huntington also provides investment management services, cash management services and tax reporting to customers. Services are rendered over a period of time, over which revenue is recognized. Huntington may also recognize revenue from referring a customer to outside third-parties including mutual fund companies that pay distribution (12b-1) fees and other expenses. 12b-1 fees are received upon initially placing account holder's funds with a mutual fund company as well as in the future periods as long as the account holder (i.e., the fund investor), remains invested in the fund. The transaction price includes variable consideration which is considered constrained as it is not probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Accordingly, those fees are recognized as revenue when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved, that is, initial fees are recognized in the initial period while the future fees are recognized in future periods.

Insurance income includes agency commissions that are recognized when Huntington sells insurance policies to customers. Huntington is also entitled to renewal commissions and, in some cases, profit sharing which are recognized in subsequent periods. The initial commission is recognized when the insurance policy is sold to a customer. Renewal commission is variable consideration and is recognized in subsequent periods when the uncertainty around variable consideration is subsequently resolved (i.e., when customer renews the policy). Profit sharing is also a variable consideration that is not recognized until the variability surrounding realization of revenue is resolved (i.e., Huntington have reached a minimum volume of sales). Another source of variability is the ability of the policy holder to cancel the policy anytime and in such cases, Huntington may be required, under the terms of the contract, to return part of the commission received. The variability related to cancellation of the policy is not deemed significant and thus, does not impact the amount of revenue recognized. In the event the policyholder chooses to cancel the policy at any time, the revenue for amounts which qualify for claw-back are reversed in the period the cancellation occurs.

Other noninterest income includes a variety of other revenue streams including capital markets revenue, consumer fees and marketing allowance revenue. Revenue is recognized when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied. Inherent variability in the transaction price is not recognized until the uncertainty affecting the variability is resolved.


71

Table of Contents


Control is transferred to a customer either at a point in time or over time. A performance obligation is deemed satisfied when the control over goods or services is transferred to the customer. To determine when control is transferred at a point in time, Huntington considers indicators, including but not limited to the right to payment for the asset, transfer of significant risk and rewards of ownership of the asset and acceptance of asset by the customer. When control is transferred over a period of time, for different performance obligations, either the input or output method is used to determine the progress. The measure of progress used to assess completion of the performance obligation varies between performance obligations and may be based on time throughout the period of service or on the value of goods and services transferred to the customer. As each distinct service or activity is performed, Huntington transfers control to the customer based on the services performed as the customer simultaneously receives the benefits of those services. This timing of revenue recognition aligns with the resolution of any uncertainty related to variable consideration. Costs incurred to obtain a revenue producing contract is expensed when incurred as a practical expedient as the contractual period for majority of contracts is one year or less.

Revenue is recorded in the business segment responsible for the related product or service. Fee sharing arrangements exist to allocate portions of such revenue to other business segments involved in selling to, or providing service to, customers. Business segment results are determined based upon management's reporting system, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each of the business segments. The process is designed around Huntington's organizational and management structure and, accordingly, the results derived are not necessarily comparable with similar information published by other financial institutions.

The following table illustrates the disaggregation by operating segment and major revenue stream and reconciles disaggregated revenue to segment revenue presented in Note 18 .

Huntington generally provides services for customers in which it acts as principal. Payment terms and conditions vary amongst services and customers, and thus impact the timing and amount of revenue recognition. Some fees may be paid before any service is rendered and accordingly, such fees are deferred until the obligations pertaining to those fees are satisfied. Most Huntington contracts with customers are cancelable by either party without penalty or they are short-term in nature, with a contract duration of less than one year. Accordingly, most revenue deferred for the reporting period ended June 30, 2018 is expected to be earned within one year. Huntington does not have significant balances of contract assets or contract liabilities and any change in those balances during the reporting period ended June 30, 2018 was determined to be immaterial.

13 . BENEFIT PLANS

Huntington sponsors a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all employees hired or rehired prior to January 1, 2010. The plan, which was modified in 2013, no longer accrues service benefits to participants and provides benefits based upon length of service and compensation levels. Huntington's funding policy 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 2018 .

In addition, Huntington has a 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 additional information on benefit plans, see the Benefit Plan footnote in our 2017 Form 10-K.

Beginning January 1, 2018, Huntington increased the company match such that Huntington matches participant contributions 150% of the first 2% of base pay and 100% of the next 2%. Huntington's expense related to the defined contribution plans during the second quarter 2018 and 2017 was $17 million and $11 million , respectively. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, expense related to the defined contribution plans was $28 million and $22 million , respectively.

14 . FAIR VALUES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

See Note 18 "Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities" to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 for a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value rarely transfer between Level 1 and Level 2 measurements. There were no such transfers during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 .

Table of Contents


The tables below present a rollforward of the balance sheet amounts for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , 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 ongoing basis; however, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 , 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 ALLL. 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.

Other real estate owned properties are included in accrued income and other assets and valued based on appraisals and third-party price opinions.

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 and higher prepayment rates generally resulting in lower fair values for MSR assets and asset-backed securities.

Credit loss estimates, such as probability of default, constant default, cumulative default, loss given default, cure given deferral, and loss severity, 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 loss estimates 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 and spread over forward interest rate swap rates typically increase when market interest rates increase and/or credit and liquidity risks increase, and decrease when market interest rates decline and/or credit and liquidity conditions improve. Higher discount rates and credit spreads generally result in lower fair market values.

Net market price and pull through percentages generally increase when market interest rates increase and decline when market interest rates decline. Higher net market price and pull through percentages generally result in higher fair values.

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.

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.

Derivatives used in asset and liability management activities

Huntington engages in balance sheet hedging activity, principally for asset and liability management purposes, to convert fixed rate assets or liabilities into floating rate, or vice versa. Balance sheet hedging activity is arranged to receive hedge accounting treatment and is classified as either fair value or cash flow hedges. Fair value hedges are purchased to convert subordinated and other long-term debt from fixed-rate obligations to floating rate. Cash flow hedges are also used to convert floating rate securities into fixed rate securities.

These derivative financial instruments are entered into to manage 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 are an adjustment to either interest income or interest expense. The net amounts resulted in an adjustment to net interest income of $(15) million and $6 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 , and 2017 , respectively. The net amounts resulted in an adjustment to net interest income of $(14) million and $16 million for the six -month periods ended June 30, 2018 , and 2017 , respectively.

During the second quarter of 2018, Huntington terminated $2.9 billion (notional value) of liability conversion swaps subsequent to de-designating these swaps as fair value hedges. The adjusted basis of the hedged item at termination was $149 million , which will be amortized over the remaining life of the long-term debt using the effective yield method.

Fair Value Hedges

The changes in fair value of the fair value hedges are recorded through earnings and offset against changes in the fair value of the hedged item.

Derivatives used in mortgage banking activities

Mortgage loan origination hedging activity

Hunting ton's mortgage origination hedging activity is related to the hedging of the mortgage pricing commitments to customers and the secondary sale to third parties. The value of a newly originated mortgage is not firm until the interest rate is committed or locked. The interest rate lock commitments are derivative positions that economically hedge forward commitments to sell loans.

The following table summarizes the derivative assets and liabilities used in mortgage banking activities:

MSR hedging activity

Huntington's MSR economic hedging activity uses securities and derivatives to manage the value of the MSR asset and to mitigate the various types of risk inherent in the MSR asset, including risks related to duration, basis, convexity, volatility, and yield curve. The hedging instruments include forward commitments, interest rate swaps, and options on interest rate swaps.

All MSR hedging instruments matured during the second quarter of 2018. The notional value of the derivative financial instruments, corresponding trading liabilities, and net trading gains (losses) related to MSR hedging activity is summarized in the following table:

Derivatives used in customer related 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 consist of commodity, interest rate, and foreign exchange contracts. Huntington enters into offsetting third-party contracts with approved, reputable counterparties with substantially matching terms and currencies in order to economically hedge significant exposure related to derivatives used in trading activities.

The interest rate or price risk of 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. Foreign currency derivatives help the customer hedge risk and reduce exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates. Transactions are primarily in liquid currencies with Canadian dollars and Euros comprising a majority of all transactions. Commodity derivatives help the customer hedge risk and reduce exposure to fluctuations in the price of various commodities. Hedging of energy-related products and base metals comprise the majority of all transactions.

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 both June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , were $99 million and $88 million , respectively. The total notional values of derivative financial instruments used by Huntington on behalf of customers, including offsetting derivatives, were $24 billion and $22 billion at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. Huntington's credit risk from interest rate swaps used for trading purposes was $101 million and $119 million at the same dates, respectively.

Visa ® -related Swaps

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 changes in the Visa ® litigation. In connection with the FirstMerit acquisition, Huntington acquired an additional Visa ® related swap agreement. At June 30, 2018 , the combined fair value of the swap liabilities of $7 million is an estimate of the exposure liability based upon Huntington's assessment of the potential Visa ® litigation losses and timing of the litigation settlement.

Financial assets and liabilities that are offset in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

Huntington records derivatives at fair value as further described in Note 14 .

Derivative balances are presented on a net basis taking into consideration the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements. Additionally, collateral exchanged with counterparties is also netted against the applicable derivative fair values. Huntington enters into derivative transactions with two primary groups: broker-dealers and banks, and Huntington's customers. Different methods are utilized for managing counterparty credit exposure and credit risk for each of these groups.

Huntington enters into transactions with broker-dealers and banks for various risk management purposes. These types of transactions generally are high dollar volume. Huntington enters into bilateral collateral and master netting agreements with


86

Table of Contents


these counterparties, and routinely exchanges cash and high quality securities collateral. Huntington enters into transactions with customers to meet their financing, investing, payment and risk management needs. These types of transactions generally are low dollar volume. Huntington enters into master netting agreements with customer counterparties; however, collateral is generally not exchanged with customer counterparties.

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , aggregate credit risk associated with these derivatives, net of collateral that has been pledged by the counterparty, was $28 million and $30 million , respectively. The credit risk associated with interest rate swaps is calculated after considering master netting agreements with broker-dealers and banks.

At June 30, 2018 , Huntington pledged $64 million of investment securities and cash collateral to counterparties, while other counterparties pledged $200 million of investment securities and cash collateral to Huntington to satisfy collateral netting agreements. In the event of credit downgrades, Huntington would not be required to provide additional collateral.

The following tables present the gross amounts of these assets and liabilities with any offsets to arrive at the net amounts recognized in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 .

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 Consolidated Balance Sheets. The maximum exposure to loss is equal to the carrying value of the servicing asset. See Note 7 for more information.

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 long-term debt. The trust securities are the obligations of the trusts, and as such, are not consolidated within Huntington's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

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.

Affordable 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 uses the proportional amortization method to account for a majority of its investments in these entities. These investments are included in accrued income and other assets. Investments that do not meet the requirements of the proportional amortization method are accounted for using the equity method. Investment losses related to these investments are included in noninterest income in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

17 . 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 contract amounts of these financial agreements at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , were as follows:

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 $9 million and $10 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively.

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

Activity related to our mortgage origination activity supports the hedging of the mortgage pricing commitments to customers and the secondary sale to third parties. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , Huntington had commitments to sell residential real estate loans of $1.1 billion and $0.7 billion , respectively.

Litigation and Regulatory Matters

The following supplements the disclosure in Note 21 - Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation's 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the ordinary course of business, Huntington is routinely a defendant in or party to pending and threatened legal and regulatory actions and proceedings.

In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such matters, particularly where the claimants seek very large or indeterminate damages or where the matters present novel legal theories or involve a large number of parties, Huntington generally cannot predict what the eventual outcome of the pending matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will be, or what the eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each matter may be.

Huntington establishes an accrued liability when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. Huntington thereafter continues to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the amount of the accrued liability that has been previously established.

For certain matters, Huntington is able to estimate a range of possible loss. In cases in which Huntington possesses information to estimate a range of possible loss, that estimate is aggregated and disclosed below. There may be other matters for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible but such an estimate of the range of possible loss may not be possible. For those matters where an estimate of the range of possible loss is possible, management currently estimates the aggregate range of possible loss is $0 to $30 million at June 30, 2018 in excess of the accrued liability (if any) related to those matters. This

estimated range of possible loss is based upon currently available information and is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions, and known and unknown uncertainties. The matters underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. The estimated range of possible loss does not represent Huntington's maximum loss exposure.

Information is provided below, or in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosures, regarding the nature of these contingencies and, where specified, the amount of the claim associated with these loss contingencies. Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending matters, including the matters described herein, and in the prior commitments and contingencies disclosures, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of Huntington. Further, management believes that amounts previously accrued are adequate to address Huntington's contingent liabilities. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in these matters, some of which are beyond Huntington's control, and the large or indeterminate damages sought in some of these matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to Huntington's results of operations for any particular reporting period.

Meoli v. The Huntington National Bank (Cyberco Litigation). The order approving the settlement became final on April 30, 2018. The settlement amount was paid in May 2018 and was within the Company's reserve for this matter.

18 . SEGMENT REPORTING

Huntington's business segments are based on our internally-aligned segment leadership structure, which is how management monitors results and assesses performance. The Company has four major business segments: Consumer and Business Banking , Commercial Banking , Vehicle Finance , Regional Banking and The Huntington Private Client Group (RBHPCG) . The Treasury / Other function includes technology and operations, other unallocated assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense.

Business segment results are determined based upon Huntington's management reporting system, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each of the business segments. The process is designed around the organizational and management structure and, accordingly, the results derived are not necessarily comparable with similar information published by other financial institutions. Additionally, because of the interrelationships of the various segments, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities.

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.

The management 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 . Huntington utilizes a full-allocation methodology, where all Treasury / Other expenses, except reported Significant Items, and a small amount of other residual unallocated expenses, are allocated to the four business segments.

The management policies and processes utilized in compiling segment financial information are highly subjective and, unlike financial accounting, are not based on authoritative guidance similar to GAAP. As a result, reported segment results are not necessarily comparable with similar information reported by other financial institutions. Furthermore, changes in management structure or allocation methodologies and procedures result in changes in reported segment financial data. Accordingly, certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Huntington uses an active and centralized FTP methodology to attribute appropriate net interest income to the business segments. The intent of the FTP methodology is to transfer 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 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). A new methodology for establishing FTP rates was adopted in 2017, therefore prior period amounts have been restated to reflect the new methodology.

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 (the Exchange Act), are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission'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 June 30, 2018 . Based upon such evaluation, Huntington's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2018 , Huntington's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 , that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
