HANCOCK WHITNEY CORP Segments Disclosure

Note 17. Segment Reporting

U.S. GAAP requires that information be reported about a company’s operating segments using a “management approach.” Reportable segments are identified in these standards as those revenue-producing components for which discrete financial information is produced internally and which are subject to evaluation by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The Company has identified the Capital Committee as the chief operating decision maker. The Capital Committee is comprised of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Hancock Whitney Bank President and Chief Operating Officer, Chief Credit Officer, Chief Risk Officer, Chief Human Resources Officer, and General Counsel. Consistent with the Company’s strategy that is focused on providing a consistent package of banking products and services across all markets, the Company has identified its overall banking operations as its only reportable segment.

The Capital Committee primarily uses net income and its components to make operational and financial decisions and manage the Company. Financial reports utilized include actual results compared to budget, forecasts, prior period results, peer information, and analyst estimates. The accounting policies used to measure the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies found in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements. The significant segment expenses included in net income are presented in the financial statement captions shown on the face of the Consolidated Statements of Income and in Note 14 – Other Noninterest Income and Other Noninterest Expense, and align materially with those reported to the Capital Committee. There are no other segment items that are required to reconcile expenses included in net income to significant expenses reviewed by the Capital Committee.
