Forward-Looking Statements. Statements made in this report that are not
purely historical are forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), including any statements regarding
descriptions of management's plans, objectives or goals for future operations,
products or services, and forecasts of its revenues, earnings or other measures
of performance. Factors that could cause future results to vary from current
management expectations include, but are not limited to: the execution of
AmSouth's strategic initiatives; legislation; general economic conditions,
especially in the Southeast; changes in interest rates, yield curves and
interest rate spread relationships; deposit flows; the cost of funds; cost of
federal deposit insurance premiums; demand for loan products; demand for
financial services; competition; changes in the quality or composition of
AmSouth's loan and investment portfolios including capital market
inefficiencies that may affect the marketability and valuation of
available-for-sale securities; changes in accounting and tax principles,
policies or guidelines; other economic, competitive, governmental, and
regulatory factors affecting AmSouth's operations, products, services,
compliance costs and prices; and the outcome of litigation, which is inherently
uncertain and depends on the findings of judges and juries. The terrorist
attacks of September 11, 2001 have had a negative impact on the economy. It is
impossible to predict what future effect these events or any United States
response may have. To the extent there is a prolonged negative impact on the
economy, the effects may include adverse changes in customers' borrowing,
investing or spending patterns, market disruptions, currency fluctuations,
exchange controls, restriction of asset growth, negative effects on credit
quality and other effects that could adversely impact the performance, earnings
and revenue growth of the financial services industry, including AmSouth.
Forward-looking statements in this report speak only as of the date of this
report. AmSouth does not undertake a duty to update forward-looking statements
to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the
forward-looking statements are made.

AMSOUTH BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000
General--The consolidated financial statements conform to accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. The accompanying interim
financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial
statements have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature. Certain amounts in the prior year's financial statements have been
reclassified to conform with the 2001 presentation. These reclassifications had
no effect on net income. The notes included herein should be read in
conjunction with the notes to consolidated financial statements included in
AmSouth Bancorporation's (AmSouth) 2000 annual report on Form 10-K.
Accounting Changes--Effective January 1, 2001, AmSouth adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and for Hedging Activities" (Statement 133), as amended, and, at that time,
designated anew the derivative instruments used for risk management into
hedging relationships in accordance with the requirements of the new standard.
Derivative instruments used to hedge changes in the fair value of assets and
liabilities due to changes in interest rates were designated as fair value
hedges. Derivative instruments used to hedge the variability of forecasted cash
flows attributable to interest rate risk were designated as cash flow hedges.
The after-tax transition adjustment associated with the adoption of Statement
133 was immaterial to net income and increased other comprehensive income by
approximately $5,650,000, of which $2,031,000 is expected to be reclassified
into earnings during 2001 due to the receipt of variable interest on its hedged
variable rate loans. AmSouth also recorded an increase to other comprehensive
income of $26,612,000 as a result of transferring $2,107,919,000 of securities
from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale in conjunction with the adoption of
Statement 133. The transition amounts were determined based on the interpretive
guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to date. The
FASB continues to issue interpretive guidance which could require changes to
AmSouth's application of Statement 133 and adjustments to the transition
amounts.
In September 2000, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140,
"Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments
of Liabilities" (Statement 140), was issued by the FASB. Statement 140 replaces
Statement 125, issued in June 1996. Statement 140 revises the standards for
accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and
collateral and requires certain disclosures, but carries over most of Statement
125's provisions without reconsideration. Statement 140 is effective for
transfers occurring after March 31, 2001, except for certain paragraphs related
to the isolation standards for financial institutions subject to receivership
by the FDIC or other affected entities. For these entities, Statement 140's
isolation standards will be effective for transfers of financial assets
occurring after December 31, 2001. Therefore, affected institutions will have
until December 31, 2001, to modify documents establishing securitization
structures to comply with the new isolation standards. AmSouth is reviewing its
conduit and securitization structures under this new isolation guidance and
plans to make any necessary revisions in the structure of these transactions to
ensure these sales comply with the new guidance. The expanded disclosures about
securitizations and collateral are effective for fiscal years ending after
December 15, 2000. AmSouth has adopted the disclosure requirements and does not
expect the remaining provisions of Statement 140 to have a material impact on
its financial condition or results of operations.
In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations"
(Statement 141), and Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
(Statement 142). Statement 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting
be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. Statement
141 also specifies the criteria for intangible assets acquired in a purchase
method business combination to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill.
Statement 142 will require goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite
useful lives to no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at
least annually in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142. Statement
142 will also require intangible assets with definite useful lives
7
to be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated
residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with the FASB's
Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" (Statement 121).
AmSouth is required to adopt the provisions of Statement 141 immediately and
Statement 142 effective January 1, 2002. Furthermore, any goodwill and any
intangible assets determined to have an indefinite useful life that are
acquired in a purchase business combination completed after June 30, 2001 will
not be amortized, but will continue to be evaluated for impairment in
accordance with the appropriate pre-Statement 142 accounting literature.
Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in business combinations completed
before July 1, 2001 will continue to be amortized prior to the adoption of
Statement 142.
Statement 141 will require upon adoption of Statement 142, that AmSouth
evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in
prior purchase business combinations, and make any necessary reclassifications
to conform with the new criteria in Statement 141. Upon adoption of Statement
142, AmSouth will be required to reassess the useful lives and residual values
of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations, and make
any necessary amortization period adjustments by the end of the first interim
period after adoption. In addition, to the extent an intangible asset is
identified as having an indefinite useful life, AmSouth will be required to
test the intangible asset for impairment in accordance with the provisions of
Statement 142 within the first interim period. Any impairment loss will be
measured as of the date of adoption and recognized as the cumulative effect of
a change in accounting principle in the first interim period.
As of the date of adoption, AmSouth expects to have unamortized goodwill in
the amount of $288.6 million, and unamortized identifiable intangible assets in
the amount of $18.3 million, all of which will be subject to the transition
provisions of Statements 141 and 142. The full impact of adoption is yet to be
determined, however, amortization expense related to goodwill was $32.5
million, or $.08 per share, and $22.1 million, or $.06 per share, for the year
ended December 31, 2000 and the nine months ended September 30, 2001,
respectively.
On October 3, 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets" (Statement 144). Statement 144 supersedes FASB Statement 121 and
provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of.
Although retaining many of the fundamental recognition and measurement
provisions of Statement 121, the new rules significantly change the criteria
that would have to be met to classify an asset as held-for-sale. Statement 144
also supersedes the provisions of APB Opinion 30 with regard to reporting the
effects of a disposal of a segment of a business and will require expected
future operating losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in
discontinued operations in the period(s) in which the losses are incurred
(rather than as of the measurement date as presently required by APB 30). In
addition, more dispositions will qualify for discontinued operations treatment
in the income statement. This statement will be effective for AmSouth beginning
January 2002. AmSouth does not anticipate that this statement will have a
material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
Cash Flows--For the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, AmSouth
paid interest of $1.0 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively. During the nine
months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, AmSouth received income tax refunds
of $11.3 million and $6.3 million, respectively. Noncash transfers from loans
to foreclosed properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000,
were $30.3 and $22.9 million, respectively, and noncash transfers from
foreclosed properties to loans were $687 thousand and $1.3 million,
respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, AmSouth had noncash
transfers from loans to available-for-sale securities and other assets of
approximately $1.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, in connection with
the participation of loans to third-party conduits. For the same period of
2000, AmSouth had noncash transfers from loans to available-for-sale
securities, other assets and other liabilities of approximately $30.8 million,
$22.7 million and $11.4 million, respectively, in connection with the
participation of loans to third-party conduits.
8
Derivatives--In accordance with Statement 133, AmSouth recognizes all of its
derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the statement of
financial condition at fair value. For those derivative instruments that are
designated and qualify as hedging instruments, AmSouth designates the hedging
instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as either a fair value hedge
or a cash flow hedge.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value
hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting
loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized
in other noninterest revenue during the period of the change in fair values.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges,
the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is
reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into
earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction
affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in
excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of
the hedged item, if any, is recognized in other noninterest revenue during the
period of change. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging
instruments, the gain or loss is recognized in current earnings during the
period of change.
Fair Value Hedging Strategy--AmSouth has entered into interest rate swap
agreements for interest rate risk exposure management purposes. The interest
rate swap agreements utilized by AmSouth effectively modify AmSouth's exposure
to interest rate risk by converting a portion of AmSouth's fixed-rate
certificates of deposit to floating rate. AmSouth also has interest rate swap
agreements which effectively convert portions of its fixed-rate long-term debt
to floating rate. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001,
AmSouth recognized a net gain of $185,000 related to the ineffective portion of
its hedging instruments.
Cash Flow Hedging Strategy--AmSouth has entered into interest rate swap
agreements that effectively convert a portion of its floating-rate loans to a
fixed-rate basis, thus reducing the impact of interest-rate changes on future
interest income. Approximately $725 million of AmSouth's loans were designated
as the hedged items to the interest rate swap agreements at September 30, 2001.
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001, AmSouth recognized a net
gain of $208,000 related to the ineffective portion of its hedging instruments.
Comprehensive Income--Total comprehensive income was $213.1 million and
$572.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 and $89.6
million and $324.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2000. Total comprehensive income consists of net income, the change in the
unrealized gains or losses on AmSouth's available-for-sale securities portfolio
arising during the period and the effective portion of cash flow hedges marked
to market.

Shareholders' Equity--On April 20, 2000, AmSouth's Board of Directors (The
Board) approved the repurchase by AmSouth of up to 35.0 million shares of its
outstanding common stock over a two year period for the purpose of funding
employee benefit and dividend reinvestment plans and for general corporate
purposes. Through September 30, 2001, 34.5 million shares have been purchased
under this authorization at a cost of $587.8 million. On September 19, 2001,
The Board approved an additional 25 million shares of common stock for
repurchase over the next two years. Through September, no shares had been
repurchased under this authorization. Cash dividends of $0.21 per common share
were declared in the third quarter of 2001. This represents a five percent
increase over the dividend paid during the third quarter of 2000.
10
Business Segment Information--AmSouth has three reportable segments:
Consumer Banking, Commercial Banking, and Wealth Management. Treasury & Other
is comprised of balance sheet management activities that include the investment
portfolio, non-deposit funding and off-balance sheet financial instruments.
Treasury & Other also includes income from bank owned life insurance policies,
ineffectiveness related to hedging strategies, net gains on sales of businesses
and other assets, net gains on sales of fixed assets, taxable-equivalent
adjustments associated with lease restructuring transactions, merger-related
costs, and corporate expenses such as corporate overhead and goodwill
amortization. As a result of the sale of IFC Holdings, Inc. (IFC) at the end of
the third quarter of 2000, all revenues and expenses of IFC for 2000 have been
reclassified into Treasury & Other from Wealth Management. The following is a

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
The Board of Directors
AmSouth Bancorporation
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated statement of condition of
AmSouth Bancorporation and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2001 and 2000, and
the related consolidated statement of earnings for the three-month and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, the consolidated
statement of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and
2000, and the consolidated statement of shareholders' equity for the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2001. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States,
which will be performed for the full year with the objective of expressing an
opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do
not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements referred
to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.
We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States, the consolidated statement of condition of
AmSouth Bancorporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000, and the
related consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in our report dated
January 31, 2001, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated
financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the
accompanying consolidated statement of condition as of December 31, 2000 is
fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated
statement of condition from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Overview
AmSouth Bancorporation (AmSouth) reported net income for the quarter ended
September 30, 2001 of $136.1 million, or $.37 per share and $395.8 million, or
$1.06 per share for the first nine months of 2001. In the same periods last
year, AmSouth recorded a net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 of
$36.3 million, or $.10 per share, and net income of $202.6 million, or $.52 per
share, respectively. For the three months and nine months ended September 30,
2001, AmSouth's return on average assets (ROA) was 1.41 percent and 1.38
percent, respectively, compared to a loss on average assets of .34 percent for
the third quarter of 2000 and .63 percent ROA for the first nine months of
2000. Return on average equity (ROE) increased to 18.59 percent and 18.47
percent for the third quarter and first nine months of 2001 from a loss on
average equity of 5.20 percent for the same quarter of 2000 and 9.41 percent
ROE for the first nine months of 2000.
Total assets at September 30, 2001 were $38.3 billion, down from $38.9
billion at year-end reflecting a decrease in Federal funds sold and securities
purchased under agreements to resell, offset by increases in loans, the
investment portfolio and other interest earning assets. Loans net of unearned
income at September 30, 2001 increased $285 million over year-end. This
increase was attributable to $977 million of growth in consumer loans offset by
decreases in commercial and commercial real estate loans. The increase in
consumer loans was driven by increases in home equity loans and lines. This
increase also reflected higher levels of residential mortgages and indirect
automobile loans being retained on the balance sheet. The decrease in
commercial loans reflected management's decision, beginning in 2000, to reduce
AmSouth's exposure to syndicated commercial loans while the commercial real
estate portfolio decline reflected the impact of borrowers taking advantage of
lower rate permanent financing from other financial institutions. Managed
loans, which include loans contained in third-party conduits and loans
securitized, decreased by $1.1 billion at September 30, 2001 from year-end
levels. This decrease reflected lower levels of commercial loans, as previously
discussed, as well as a decrease in residential first mortgages and indirect
auto loans on an overall managed basis. The investment portfolio, which
consists of available-for-sale (AFS) and held-to-maturity (HTM) securities,
increased to $9.1 billion at September 30, 2001, compared to $8.6 billion at
December 31, 2000. Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements
to resell decreased to $300 million at September 30, 2001 from $2.2 billion at
December 31, 2000. The decrease reflected management's decision to shift lower
yielding Federal funds into higher yielding consumer loans and to offset
planned decreases in higher cost time deposits.
On the funding side of the balance sheet, total deposits at September 30,
2001 decreased by $749 million compared to December 31, 2000. Excluding the
$213 million decrease in foreign time deposits (Eurodollar deposits), domestic
deposits declined by $536 million. Decreases in domestic deposits occurred
primarily in higher cost time deposits. These decreases were partially offset
by increases in low cost deposits, which include noninterest-bearing and
interest-bearing demand deposits and savings deposits. Federal funds purchased
and securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowed funds
decreased by $249 million and $456 million, respectively, compared to December
31, 2000. The decrease in short-term borrowings including foreign time deposits
reflected the use of proceeds from the third quarter of 2000 balance sheet
restructuring transactions.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income (NII) on a fully taxable equivalent basis was $364.4
million for the third quarter of 2001, an increase of $17.3 million, or 5.0
percent, as compared to the third quarter of 2000 and an increase of $5.4
million or 6.0 percent annualized when compared to the second quarter of 2001.
The increase in net interest income on a year over year and quarter over
quarter basis reflected a higher net interest margin partially offset by lower
average interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets for the third
quarter of 2001 were $34.8 billion, a decrease of $3.7 billion from the same
period in 2000 and a decrease of $166 million from the immediately preceding
quarter. The increase in the margin reflected a favorable shift in the mix of
both assets and liabilities. More profitable consumer loans replaced narrower
spread commercial loans while the decline in
13
higher cost time deposits was offset with growth in low-cost deposits. On a
year-to-date basis, net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis was
$1.1 billion in 2001, a decrease of $33.5 million or 3.1 percent compared to
the first nine months of 2000. The decrease in net interest income for the
first nine months of 2001 primarily reflected a $4.5 billion decrease in
average interest-earning assets, resulting from the third quarter 2000 balance
sheet restructuring. The restructuring also contributed to the 31 basis point
increase in the net interest margin for the first nine months of 2001 compared
to the same period of 2000. AmSouth expects its margin to improve in the fourth
quarter of 2001 reflecting the maturity of $2.3 billion in higher cost time
deposits which have or will mature during the third and fourth quarters at a
time when renewal rates would be approximately 350 basis points lower.
Asset/Liability Management
AmSouth maintains a formal asset and liability management process to
quantify, monitor and control interest rate risk and to assist management in
maintaining stability in the net interest margin under varying interest rate
environments. AmSouth accomplishes this process through the development and
implementation of lending, funding, pricing and hedging strategies designed to
maximize NII performance under varying interest rate environments subject to
specific liquidity and interest rate risk guidelines.
An earnings simulation model is the primary tool used to assess the
direction and magnitude of changes in NII resulting from changes in interest
rates. Key assumptions in the model include prepayment speeds on
mortgage-related assets; cash flows and maturities of derivatives and other
financial instruments held for purposes other than trading; changes in market
conditions, loan volumes and pricing; deposit volume, mix and rate sensitivity;
customer preferences; and management's financial and capital plans. These
assumptions are inherently uncertain, and, as a result, the model cannot
precisely estimate NII or precisely predict the impact of higher or lower
interest rates on NII. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to
timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes, changes in market
conditions, volume differences and management's strategies, among other factors.
Based on the results of the simulation model as of September 30, 2001,
AmSouth would expect NII to decrease $5 million or approximately .4 percent and
increase $7 million or approximately .5 percent if interest rates gradually
increase or decrease, respectively, from current rates by 100 basis points over
a 12-month period. This level of interest rate risk is within AmSouth's policy
guidelines. As of September 30, 2000, the simulation model indicated that NII
would decrease $14.5 million or approximately 1.0 percent and increase $4.3
million or approximately .3 percent if interest rates gradually increased or
decreased, respectively, from their then-current rates by 100 basis points over
a 12-month period.
As part of its activities to manage interest rate risk, AmSouth, from time
to time, utilizes various derivative instruments such as interest rate swaps,
caps and floors. There were maturities, calls and closeouts of interest rate
swaps totaling $606 million during the first nine months of 2001. At September
30, 2001, AmSouth had interest rate swaps, all of which receive fixed rates,
totaling a notional amount of $2.1 billion. At September 30, 2001, AmSouth also
held other derivative instruments to provide customers and AmSouth a means of
managing the risks of changing interest and foreign exchange rates. The amounts
of these other derivative instruments were immaterial.
Credit Quality
AmSouth maintains an allowance for loan losses which management believes is
adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. A formal review is
prepared quarterly to assess the risk in the portfolio and to determine the
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The review includes analyses of
historical performance, the level of nonperforming and adversely rated loans,
specific analyses of certain problem loans, loan activity since the previous
quarter, reports prepared by the Credit Review Department, consideration of
current economic conditions, and other pertinent information. The level of
allowance to net loans outstanding will vary depending on the overall results
of this quarterly review. The review is presented to and subsequently approved
by senior management and reviewed by the Audit and Community Responsibility
Committee of the Board of Directors.

Table 6 presents a five-quarter analysis of the allowance for loan losses.
At September 30, 2001, the allowance for loan losses was $360.7 million, or
1.45 percent of loans net of unearned income, compared to $365.2 million, or
1.49 percent, at September 30, 2000 and $380.7 million, or 1.54 percent at June
30, 2001. The decrease in the allowance versus the second quarter of 2001
primarily reflected a significant reduction in AmSouth's exposure to
nonperforming syndicated loans as a result of charging off approximately $30
million of shared national credit loans in the third quarter of 2001. The
decrease in the allowance also reflected a reduction in classified commercial
loans. The decrease in exposure to commercial loans was somewhat offset by an
increase in the allowance associated with the consumer loan portfolio as loss
experience in the consumer portfolio increased. The coverage ratio of the
allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 211 percent at September
30, 2001, an increase from the June 30, 2001 ratio of 193 percent.
Net charge-offs for the quarter ended September 30, 2001, were $69.1 million
or 1.11 percent of average loans, on an annualized basis, an increase of $33.7
million from the $35.4 million or .55 percent of average loans reported a year
earlier and $23.1 million higher than the $46.1 million of net charge-offs or
.75 percent of average loans reported in the second quarter of 2001. The
increase in net charge-offs for the quarter occurred in both the commercial and
consumer portfolios with commercial and commercial real estate net charge-offs
increasing $26.5 million compared to the third quarter of 2000 and $17.9
million compared to the second quarter of 2001. As described in the previous
paragraph, the increase reflected approximately $30 million of shared national
credit loans. In the consumer portfolio, net charge-offs for the third quarter
were $25.5 million compared to $20.4 million in the second quarter of 2001 and
$18.3 million for third quarter of 2000. Compared to the third quarter of 2000,
the increase in consumer net charge-offs in the third quarter of 2001 reflected
increases in most consumer loan categories. The increase versus the second
quarter of 2001 was primarily the result of increases in indirect automobile
loans, direct consumer loans and residential first mortgages partially offset
by decreases in equity lending and bankcard and revolving credit net
charge-offs. The overall increase in the consumer net charge-offs primarily
reflected a continued slowing of the economy and higher rates of personal
bankruptcy filings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, net
charge-offs were $153.2 million or an annualized .83 percent of average loans
compared to $83.5 million or .42 percent for the same period of 2000. On a
year-to-date basis, the increase in net charge-offs occurred in both the
commercial and consumer portfolios. As described in the quarterly comparisons,
the increased net charge-offs reflected the impact of a slowing economy and
higher rates of personal bankruptcy filings as well as the charge-offs of
shared national credit loans. Fourth quarter net charge-offs are expected to
return to the 70 to 80 basis point range recognized in the second quarter of
2001. The provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2001 was $49.2
million compared to $123.8 million in the third quarter of 2000 and $46.1
million in the second quarter of 2001. For the first nine months of 2001, the
provision was $133.5 million compared to $172.0 million for the corresponding
year-earlier period.
Table 7 presents a five-quarter comparison of the components of
nonperforming assets. At September 30, 2001, nonperforming assets as a
percentage of loans net of unearned income, foreclosed properties and
repossessions decreased by eight basis points to 0.82 percent compared to 0.90
percent at the end of the second quarter of 2001. Compared to the third quarter
of 2000, this percentage increased 16 basis points from 0.66 percent. The
decrease from the second quarter of 2001 reflected the charge-off of
approximately $30 million of shared national credit loans. The increase
compared to the prior year was primarily associated with a higher level of
nonperforming syndicated commercial loans at September 30, 2001 compared to
September 30, 2000 and reflected the impact of a slower economy.
Included in nonperforming assets at September 30, 2001 and 2000, was $114.8
million and $80.2 million, respectively, in loans that were considered to be
impaired, substantially all of which were on a nonaccrual basis. At September
30, 2001 and 2000, there was $25.4 million and $42.5 million, respectively, in
the allowance for loan losses specifically allocated to these impaired loans.
The average balance of impaired loans for the three months ended September 30,
2001 and 2000, was $126.4 million and $61.9 million, respectively, and $130.6
million and $66.6 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September
30, 2001 and 2000.
15
AmSouth recorded no material interest income on its impaired loans during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2001.
Noninterest Revenues and Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest revenue (NIR) was $192.4 million during the third quarter of
2001 and $562.3 million for the first nine months of 2001 compared to $30.5
million and $470.0 million reported for the corresponding periods in 2000. NIR
in 2000, however, was negatively impacted by charges recorded in connection
with a third quarter financial restructuring as well as charges associated with
business divestitures. The impact of these items was to reduce NIR in third
quarter and year-to-date by approximately $171 million. NIR for the quarter and
year-to-date period ended September 30, 2000 also included approximately $34.4
million and $117.6 million of revenues associated with IFC Holdings, Inc.
(IFC), which was sold by AmSouth in the third quarter of 2000. Excluding the
impact of the restructuring and business divestiture charges as well as
revenues from IFC, NIR increased by 14.8 percent in the third quarter of 2001
and 7.5 percent on a year-to-date basis from adjusted NIR of $167.5 million and
$523.2 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2000,
respectively.
The increase in NIR versus the adjusted prior year numbers was primarily due
to higher revenues generated across most categories of NIR. Categories showing
improvement were led by service charges on deposits, which increased $7.4
million or 12.9 percent, and $20.2 million or 11.8 percent versus the third
quarter and first nine months of 2000, respectively. The increase in service
charge income was primarily the result of higher treasury management fees as a
result of higher sales to corporate customers. The increase in service charge
income also reflected higher revenue from overdraft fees. Additionally,
consumer investment services income, excluding IFC generated revenues,
increased $2.5 million and $6.8 million when compared to the three months and
nine months ended September 30, 2000, respectively. This increase was primarily
the result of higher annuity income from AmSouth's platform annuity sales
program. Interchange income for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2001 was $2.3 million and $4.4 million higher, respectively, than the
corresponding periods last year due to higher transaction volumes from AmSouth
checkcards and ATMs. Mortgage income in the third quarter of 2001 increased
$4.4 million compared to the third quarter of 2000, adjusted for restructuring
charges, yet declined by approximately $5.8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001, compared to the same period in 2000. The increase for the
quarter was driven by higher gains on the bulk sale of mortgage loans and
servicing in the secondary market. On a year-to-date comparison, the decrease
in mortgage income reflected a $13.8 million decrease in gains on sales of
mortgage loans to third-party conduits, partially offset by higher secondary
marketing gains from the sale of mortgage loans and servicing. The decline in
trust income reflected a drop in net assets under management, primarily as a
result of declining market values and a decline in net new business.
Noninterest expenses (NIE) decreased from the prior year by 6.1 percent and
18.9 percent for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2001.
Excluding the impact of merger-related charges and expenses related to IFC, NIE
increased 5.1 percent or $14.6 million for the quarter and 1.7 percent or $14.8
million year-to-date compared to the same periods of 2000. The increase
primarily reflected higher salaries and employee benefits, and within other
NIE, professional fees. On a quarterly comparison basis, higher marketing and
equipment expenses also contributed to the increase in NIE versus adjusted
third quarter 2000 NIE. Salaries and employee benefits increased $8.4 million
and $11.9 million for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively,
compared to the same periods a year ago, adjusted for the IFC sale. This
increase reflected higher incentive accruals related to improved performance as
well as higher staffing levels. Professional fees increased $2.5 million on a
quarterly basis and $4.9 million year-to-date compared to corresponding periods
in 2000, excluding IFC. While marketing expenses on a year-to-date basis were
down $1.9 million compared to the same period of 2000 as a result of cost
control initiatives, third quarter marketing expenses were $2.0 million higher
than the third quarter of 2000 as a result of additional expenses associated
with AmSouth's equity lending initiative. Equipment expense, excluding IFC, was
down $1.8 million or 2.0 percent on a year-to-date basis, primarily due to
synergies achieved as a result of the merger with First American. On a
quarterly comparison basis, equipment expense was higher due to an increase in
software depreciation. As a result of the sale of IFC,
16
no expenses for subscriber commissions were incurred in 2001, compared to $24.7
million and $82.6 million in the third quarter and first nine months of last
year.
Capital Adequacy
At September 30, 2001, shareholders' equity totaled $3.0 billion or 7.76
percent of total assets. Since December 31, 2000, shareholders' equity
increased $157.3 million primarily as a result of net income for the nine
months of $395.8 million. In addition, shareholders' equity increased $156.0
million as a result of higher valuation of the AFS portfolio, of which $26.6
million was a result of transferring approximately $2.1 billion of securities
from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale in conjunction with AmSouth's
adoption of Statement 133. The increase in shareholders' equity also reflected
$20.5 million of other comprehensive income associated with cash flow hedges,
of which $5.7 million was related to the initial adoption of Statement 133.
These increases in shareholders' equity were offset by the declaration of
dividends of $236.1 million and the purchase of 12.1 million shares of AmSouth
common stock for $218.1 million during the first nine months of 2001.
Table 10 presents the capital amounts and risk-adjusted capital ratios for
AmSouth and AmSouth Bank at September 30, 2001 and 2000. At September 30, 2001,
AmSouth exceeded the regulatory minimum required risk-adjusted Tier 1 Capital
Ratio of 4.00% and risk-adjusted Total Capital Ratio of 8.00%. In addition, the
risk-adjusted capital ratios for AmSouth Bank were above the regulatory
minimums, and the Bank was well capitalized at September 30, 2001.

Operations.
PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Several of AmSouth's subsidiaries are defendants in legal proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these proceedings seek
relief or damages that are substantial. The actions relate to AmSouth's
lending, collections, loan servicing, deposit taking, investment, trust, and
other activities.
Among the actions which are pending against AmSouth subsidiaries are actions
filed as class actions. The actions are similar to others that have been
brought in recent years against financial institutions in that they seek
punitive damage awards in transactions involving relatively small amounts of
actual damages. A disproportionately higher number of the more significant
lawsuits against AmSouth are filed in Mississippi relative to the amount of
business done by AmSouth in Mississippi. In addition, lawsuits brought in
Alabama and Mississippi against AmSouth and other corporate defendants
typically demand higher damages than similar lawsuits brought elsewhere.
Legislation has been enacted in Alabama that is designed to limit the potential
amount of punitive damages that can be recovered in individual cases in the
future. However, AmSouth cannot predict the effect of the legislation at this
time.
It may take a number of years to finally resolve some of these legal
proceedings pending against AmSouth subsidiaries, due to their complexity and
for other reasons. It is not possible to determine with any certainty at this
time the corporation's potential exposure from the proceedings. At times, class
actions are settled by defendants without admission or even an actual finding
of wrongdoing but with payment of some compensation to purported class members
and large attorney's fees to plaintiff class counsel. Nonetheless, based upon
the advice of legal counsel, AmSouth's management is of the opinion that the
ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings will not have a material adverse
effect on AmSouth's financial condition or results of operations.
