First Horizon Corporation (FHN)

First Horizon Corporation is a leading regional financial services company headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, currently led by Chairman, President, and CEO Bryan Jordan. The company’s mission is to be the premier regional bank in the Southeast, providing a full suite of commercial, consumer, and wealth management services. First Horizon Corporation stock is a cornerstone "Regional Bank" play, representing one of the most stable and well-capitalized lenders in the high-growth "Sunbelt" markets. Following the termination of its merger with TD Bank, First Horizon has re-emerged in 2025 as a strong independent player, focusing on organic growth and the utilization of its deep local expertise to capture market share from larger national competitors.

The bank’s operations are centered on a "Relationship-First" model, with a significant 2025 focus on expanding its specialty lending divisions, including healthcare and energy. In late 2025, First Horizon reported robust net interest margins and strong credit quality, despite a complex interest rate environment. The company’s future strategy involves "Digital Banking Transformation," investing heavily in its mobile and online platforms to provide a seamless client experience for its 1.1 million customers. For 2026, the bank is prioritizing the expansion of its wealth management and capital markets businesses to diversify its revenue streams. Its competitive moat is its deep-rooted brand loyalty in the Southeast and a conservative balance sheet that allows it to remain opportunistic during periods of market volatility.

First Horizon is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol FHN stock. It remains a top pick for value investors who prize its high-quality loan portfolio and its commitment to returning capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. Financial analysts and regional banking experts monitor the FHN stock price as a benchmark for the health of the Southern US economy and the stability of the regional banking sector. By December 2025, First Horizon is recognized as a resilient and high-performing institution, well-positioned to capitalize on the continued migration of wealth and business to the Southeastern United States.
