To our Shareholders

Trustmark  continued  to  build  upon  and  expand 
customer  relationships  as  reflected  by  solid 
growth  in  our  banking,  mortgage  banking,  wealth 
management and insurance businesses. We provided 
our  customers  with  best-in-class  service  while 
generating competitive returns for our shareholders. 
Net  income  and  diluted  earnings  per  share  reached 
record levels in 2019, and we continued investments 
to strengthen our franchise and competitive position. 
We  also  returned  capital  to  shareholders  through 
consistent  quarterly  dividends  and  opportunistic

In 
made  significant  investments  to  strengthen  our 
communities,  and  associates  provided  thousands  of 
hours  of  volunteer  support.  The  successes  of  2019 
are  ultimately  a  reflection  of  our  team  of  dedicated 
associates  conducting  business  in  line  with  our 
core  values  of  integrity,  service,  accountability, 
relationships and solutions. 

repurchases. 

The  financial  services  industry  continues  to 
evolve,  and  the  pace  of  change  is  accelerating. 
Banking is something customers do, not necessarily 
some  place  they  go.  We  have  adapted  by  realigning 
delivery  channels,  repositioning  product  offerings, 
and  providing  technology  that  enables  customers 
to  conduct  business  anywhere,  whenever  and 
however  they  choose.  While  customer  preferences 
may  change,  the  need  for  trustworthy  service  and 
sound  financial  solutions  has  not.  Banking  remains 
a people business, and we are committed to building 
relationships and providing individualized solutions 
to meet our customers’ objectives.

We would like to take this opportunity to reflect 
upon  our  accomplishments  in  2019,  share  our 
direction  for  the  future,  and  highlight  a  few  of  the 
ways we are creating value for our stakeholders.

Financial Highlights

Net  income  in  2019  reached  a  record  level  of 
$150.5  million,  representing  diluted  earnings  per 
share  of  $2.32.    Diluted  earnings  per  share  in  2019 
increased  5.0%  when  compared  to  the  prior  year.  
Our  financial  results  include  charges  related  to  our 
mortgage servicing hedging program which reduced 
net income by $8.6 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, 
as a result of the volatile interest rate environment.  
Despite  these  charges,  2019  was  a  year  of  solid 
financial  results  as  reflected  by  a  return  on  average 
tangible  equity  of  12.45%  and  a  return  on  average 
assets of 1.11%.

Our  consistent  performance  has  generated 
competitive  returns  for  our  shareholders.  Over 
a  fifteen-year  period  ended  December  31,  2019, 
Trustmark generated a total return for shareholders, 
which  consists  of  stock  price  appreciation  and 
reinvestment  of  dividends, 
in  excess  of  90%.  
This compares to a total return for the KBW Regional 
Banking Index of 62.6% over the same period. 

Loans held for investment increased nearly $500 
million,  or  5.7%,  to  total  $9.3  billion  at  year-end 
2019.  Our  growth  was  well-diversified  by  loan  type 
and  geographic  market.  This  reflects  the  success 
of  our  line  of  business  strategy  to  consistently 
deliver  residential  real  estate,  commercial  real 
estate,  corporate  banking  and  private  banking 
services  across  the  organization.  Our  bankers 
have  the  experience  and  expertise  to  add  the  value 
our customers have come to expect in a relationship 
with Trustmark. 

Our  diversified,  low-cost  deposit  base  remains 
a  source  of  strength  of  the  Trustmark  franchise.  At 
year-end  2019,  approximately  58%  of  deposits  were

Experience and attention to customer relationships 
have afforded Trustmark a position of leadership in 
the  majority  of  the  communities  we  serve.  We  are 
particularly pleased to continue to have the #1 deposit 
market  share  ranking  in  the  Jackson  metropolitan 
area,  as  well  as  the  state  of  Mississippi.  We  know 
our customers have many financial institutions from

Our  diverse  fee  income  businesses  continue  to

again ranked among the top 100 retail and business 
insurance  agencies  in  the  country.  Fisher  Brown

and,  as  a  result,  we  maintained  solid 
credit  quality,  an  enduring  hallmark 
of  Trustmark.  Nonperforming 
assets  declined  14.4%  during 
the  year,  reflecting  reductions 
in  nonperforming  loans  and 
other  real  estate  of  13.6%  and 
15.6%,  respectively.  Net  charge-
offs  represented  6  basis  points  of 
average loans in 2019, well below historical 
long-term  averages.  At  December  31,  2019, 
allocation of Trustmark’s $84.3 million allowance for 
loan losses represented 411% of nonperforming loans, 
excluding specifically reviewed impaired loans. 

Revenue Generation

We  continued  to  post  solid  revenue  growth 
in  2019,  reflecting  Trustmark’s  proven  ability  to 
navigate a challenging interest rate environment, as 
well  as  achieve  significant  contributions  from  our 
fee  income  businesses.  Revenue,  excluding  interest 
and  fees  on  acquired  loans,  totaled  $605.3  million 
in 2019, an increase of 3.1% from the prior year. Net 
interest  income  (FTE)  excluding  acquired  loans, 
totaled  $431.1  million  in  2019,  an  increase  of  3.9%,

customer engagement.

Capital Strength

Trustmark  maintained  a  disciplined  approach 
to  managing  and  deploying  capital  in  2019  as  we 
continued our quarterly cash dividend to shareholders 
of  $0.23  per  share,  or  $0.92  annually.  In  addition, 
we  repurchased  $56.6  million,  or  approximately 
in 
1.8  million  of  Trustmark’s  common  shares, 
2019.  Through  dividends  and  share  repurchases, 
approximately  77.5%  of  Trustmark’s  net  income  was 
returned to shareholders in 2019. 

Trustmark’s  capital  position  remained  solid, 
reflecting 
the  consistent  profitability  of  our  
diversified financial services businesses. At December 
31,  2019,  total  shareholders’  equity  was  $1.7  billion,  
while  tangible  common  equity  totaled  $1.3  billion,

Investing for the Future

Trustmark  remains  committed  to  investments  to 
promote profitable customer acquisition and revenue 
growth, as well as reengineering processes to improve 
operational  efficiency.  In  2019,  noninterest  expense 
totaled  $429.0  million,  up  3.3%  from  the  prior  year. 
During  the  year,  we  continued  implementation 
plans  for  new  core  loan  and  deposit  systems.  These 
advancements  will  be  phased  in  over  several  years 
and  will  notably  improve  the  way  we  do  business 
by  expanding  capabilities  and  providing  additional 
efficiencies  in  our  banking  business.  We  previously 
introduced technology solutions in our mortgage and 
insurance  businesses  which  enhanced  productivity 
and improved efficiency. All of these investments are 
designed  to  provide  associates  with  the  best  tools 
available  to  assist  our  customers  in  achieving  their 
financial objectives. 

We  continued  to  realign  our  branch  network 
to  reflect  our  customers’  evolving  preferences  for 
online  and  mobile  account  access.  Still,  customers 
value  the  face-to-face  interaction  in  the  branch  and 

the  personal  aspect  of  the  banking  relationship.  As 
consumer preferences evolve, we will strive to provide 
a  consistent  customer  experience,  regardless  of  the 
delivery  channel.  During  2019,  we  consolidated  five 
branch  offices  and  reallocated  a  portion  of  those 
resources  to  opening  two  new  banking  centers. 
These  new  offices  feature  an  innovative  design 
concept  that  allows  for  integration  of  our  myTeller® 
interactive  teller  machines  and  includes  modern 
spaces for increased customer engagement. Reflecting 
changes  in  customer  preference  and  traffic  patterns, 
Trustmark consolidated 28 branch offices with limited 
growth potential and established 9 banking centers in 
attractive growth markets over the last five years. We 
embrace  the  opportunity  to  utilize  new  technologies 
to meet customer needs, expand product offerings and 
refine  delivery  channels  that  enhance  the  customer 
experience while reducing servicing costs.

Strategic Focus

Trustmark  remains  well-positioned  to  pursue 
opportunities  for  growth,  navigate  the  changing 
competitive  landscape  and,  most  importantly,  help 
our  customers  achieve  financial  success.  We  look 
to  the  future  with  great  confidence  and  optimism. 
In  2020,  we  will  continue  our  efforts  to  broaden 
customer  relationships,  enhance  the  delivery  of  our 
products  and  services  and  streamline  processes  to 
drive  greater  efficiency,  all  of  which  are  designed  to 
increase  shareholder  value.  We  remain  committed 
to  reinvest  in  and  strengthen  the  communities  we 
have the privilege to serve. We would like to thank our 
associates  for  their  dedication  and  commitment,  our 
shareholders  who  have  invested  in  Trustmark  and 
its future, and our customers who look to us as their 
financial  partner.  Trustmark  is  “People  you  trust. 
Advice that works.”

Leaving our Mark

Leaving our mark in countless ways and 
helping others leave theirs, too  

Trustmark  empowers  customers,  associates 
and  communities  by  offering  the  resources  and 
opportunities  they  need  to  leave  their  mark.  We 
provide  tools  and  technology  that  offer  financial 
simplicity.  Educational  and  training  opportunities 
strengthen  our  fellow  associates,  while  the  time  and 
support we give helps improve the places we call home. 

Investing in technology to make life 
more convenient for customers 

Whenever  a  customer  moves 

into a new home, decides where 
to  make  vacation  memories,  or 
dreams  of  what  college  to  save 
for, they make their mark in life. 
And  we’re  here  with  technology 
that makes it easy. 

As  customer  preferences  have  changed, 
so  have  Trustmark’s  solutions.  In  2019,  we 
prioritized  investments  that  enhance  our  digital 
technology  to  accommodate  the  evolving  needs  of 
today’s consumers. With the addition of more online 
and mobile banking features to our traditional service 
channels,  we  remain  competitive  and  committed  to 
our current and prospective customers. 

Growing enrollment in myTrustmark®

also  continue  to  receive  positive  reviews  from 
myTrustmark®  mobile  app  users  in  the  Apple  App 
Store® and Google Play™ Store. 

Robust  features  such  as  Account  Alerts,  Bill 
Pay  and  External  and  Internal  Transfers  help 
fuel  the  growth  of  this  dynamic  financial 
product.  We’ve  also  seen  expanding 
use  of  ManageMyMoney,  our 
digital 
financial 
personal 
management  platform,  along 
with  Mobile  Deposit  and  Live 
Chat.  With  these  tools,  we’re 
helping  customers  leave  their

Building Careers for our Associates

Internship Program

We’re continually looking for ways to better serve 
our  customers,  and  as  we  invest  to  offer  convenient 
digital  solutions,  we’re  also  committing  resources 
to  development  opportunities  for  our  associates.  By 
investing  in  our  associates,  we  are  taking  steps  to 
ensure they are equipped with the knowledge and skills 
needed to achieve outstanding customer satisfaction, 
as well as career growth and advancement. 

“Throughout  the  program,  I  learned  how  the 
bank operates, met the people who make Trustmark 
the  company  it  is,  and  found  my  niche.  During  
many  projects  in  my  current  role,  I  have  reflected  
back  to  something  I  learned  while  on  the  program 
which  has  been  beneficial  to  me  and  those  around 
me.”  -  Rachael McInnis  

Through 

Internship 

our  Corporate 

and 
(MDA) 
Management  Development  Associate 
Programs,  we  have  the  opportunity  to  recruit  new 
talent  for  our  company  and  position  associates  for 
future success. Our MDA Program allows participants 
to  gain  a  basic  knowledge  and  understanding  of 
the  various  departments,  services  and  products 
within  Trustmark  through  a  6  to  12-month  training 
program.  In  2019,  associates  who  completed  the 
program launched successful careers in our Tailored 
Wealth,  Commercial  Banking  and  Commercial  Real  
Estate departments. 

With  assistance  from  our  tuition  reimbursement 
program,  many  associates  throughout  the  company 
were able to earn an undergraduate or graduate degree 
this year. Through our investment in this program, we 
helped over 50 members of the Trustmark team leave 
their mark in the classroom and improve their skills in 
2019. In the past four years, nearly 200 associates have 
participated  in  our  tuition  reimbursement  program. 
Equally as important, our high retention rate indicates 
those  associates  remained  with  Trustmark  to  apply 
what they learned and help improve the financial lives 
of others. 

Ongoing training has always been important to our 
organization. Through both instructor-led and online 
classes, associates improved their skills in topics such 
as  professional  development  and  commercial  credit 
to retail banking, among others. In 2019, 610 associate 
development  classes  were  offered,  and  over  57,000 
courses were completed. By developing our associates 
through  training  and  educational  opportunities,  we 
are helping them make their mark, which is important  
for  strengthening  our  team  and  providing  continued 
success for our company.

Management Development  
Associate Program

“The  MDA  Program  exposed  me  to  the  world  of 
banking  beyond  teller  lines  and  lending  offices  and 
helped  me  develop  relationships  with  individuals 
across  the  company.  It  gave  me  the  opportunity  to 
explore  different  career  paths  within  the  bank  and 
allowed me to find a position in a new and exciting field 
that was unknown to me at the time.”  -  Lynn Lee  

Mentor Program

“The  mentor  program  helped  me  to  improve  my 
self-confidence,  build  better  relationships,  and  gain 
knowledge from others. Most importantly, it enabled 
me  to  continue  to  develop  a  good  career  path  and 
develop a strong network.”  -  Moin Imran 

Tuition Reimbursement  
and Career Coaching

“Trustmark’s  Tuition  Reimbursement  Program 
helped  push  me  to  reach  my  personal  educational 
goals  and  opened  career  doors  I  never  knew  existed. 
My career coach gave me guidance and put me on the 
path to success.”  -  Tammy Ward

Banking Schools

“Trustmark is proactive about sending associates 
to  banking  schools,  which  provide  opportunities 
to  meet  fellow  bankers,  discuss  current  trends  
and  policies,  and  to  gain  a  better  understanding  of 
how banks function.”  -  Mason Dixon

Leading by Example

One  additional  way  to  invest  in  our  customers 
and associates is to invest in the places we call home, 
our  communities.  At  Trustmark,  supporting  our 
communities has been a tradition for over 130 years, 
and  this  year  was  no  exception.  As  a  true  partner, 
we  know  that  by  supporting  the  organizations  and 
people where we live, we are enhancing the lives of our 
customers, associates and neighbors. 

Our robust community engagement, volunteerism 
and philanthropy continue to improve lives. When we 
promote  financial  literacy  among  students,  support 
charitable  organizations,  or  help  families 
learn 
financial  life  skills,  we  tangibly  impact  individuals 
in  the  communities  we  serve.  Across  our  footprint, 
our  associates  step  up  and  give  back  in  countless 
ways. From Houston to Pensacola, Memphis to 
Mobile,  we  leave  our  mark  and  empower 
associates to leave theirs. 

Our  associates  are  actively 

serving 

in  the  community, 
involved 
giving  of  their  time  and  talent 
by 
leadership 
in 
positions on the boards of local 
organizations and volunteering on 
a regular basis. We encourage associate 
participation  and  provide  paid  time-off  for 
company-sponsored  volunteer  activities.  We 
have  a  far-reaching  corporate  influence,  providing 
both  financial  and  volunteer  support  that  helps  to 
drive our local and state economies and transform the 
lives of our customers. 

In  2019,  Trustmark  provided  over  $4  million  in 
financial  support  and  more  than  21,000  volunteer 
hours  to  help  our  communities  develop,  grow  and 
prosper.  Through  financial  literacy  and  education, 
donation  drives  and  assistance  to 
low-income 
families, as well as numerous other initiatives, we are 
proud of the many impactful contributions we made.

Trustmark  associates  stepped  out  of  the  office 
and  into  the  classroom  to  interact  one-on-one  with 
students and teach the importance and fundamentals 
in 
of  financial 
programs such as Teach Children to Save, a national 

literacy.  Associates  participated

at the local level to promote financial literacy for K-12 
students; Pathways to Possibilities, an interactive expo 
for 8th and 9th graders that helps students plan their 
career path and understand the importance of setting 
goals; and the Trustmark Financial Scholars Program, 
which  offers  free  online  courses  covering  budgeting, 
saving for college, purchasing a home, and more. 

We  know  that  leaving  the  office  to  participate  in  
an  organized  volunteer  project  can  be  challenging 
with  a  full-time  schedule.  For  this  reason,  we 
launched Make Your Mark, a collection of campaigns 
that  offers  Trustmark  associates  the  opportunity  to 
support their local communities throughout the year, 
while  benefiting  organizations  in  local  markets 
across  our  footprint.  By  participating  in  this 
monthly  campaign,  associates  were  able 
to  make  their  mark  by  collecting 
various  items  for  community 
organizations 
eye 
glasses, books, personal hygiene 
products  and  more,  which 
helped  to  further  the  mission 
of  civic  organizations,  men’s 
and  women’s  shelters,  and  numerous 
non-profit  organizations  in  our  markets. 
Additionally,  we  distributed  over  7,200  non-
perishable items to 39 beneficiaries in 5 states through 
our associate-driven food collections.

such  as 

We are proud of our associates and the work they do 
inside and outside the office, and know that by serving 
our communities we are improving the lives of others. 
Through  current  projects  and  new  opportunities,  we 
will  continue  to  encourage  our  associates  to  make 
their mark.

Leaving our Mark for the Future

When you combine the right people with modern 
technology, positive things happen—for our customers, 
ourselves  and  our  communities.  We  look  forward  to 
building  on  our  successes  and  finding  sustainable 
ways to leave our mark in the future. 

From Houston to Pensacola, 
Memphis to Mobile,  
we help others leave their mark.
