Second-quarter net income available to common shareholders of $260 million at First Horizon Corporation (NYSE: FHN) cleared the year-ago period by 12%, the Memphis-based bank reported on July 15, 2026. Earnings per share of $0.54 improved $0.09 from Second Quarter 2025. The full release, with the line items behind those headline figures, is the next read for the FHN setup.

The print: sequential and year-over-year

First Horizon's Q2 2026 NIAC of $260 million stepped past the $257 million the bank reported for first-quarter 2026. The three-million-dollar sequential gain is a smaller signal than the year-over-year comparison, where net income available to common shareholders advanced 12% from Q2 2025. Per-share earnings for the same period moved from $0.45 to $0.54, a nine-cent improvement.

The two reference points, Q1 2026 and Q2 2025, frame what the market will price against FHN. Whether the result clears or misses any existing consensus requires the full earnings filing, not the headline press release.

What to watch

Any guidance First Horizon Corporation attaches to the second half of 2026 is the most consequential forward-looking piece of the July 15 disclosure. The supplemental materials and any accompanying conference call will carry the underlying revenue and credit detail that determines whether the 12% year-over-year NIAC gain reflects a durable trend or a quarter-specific driver. Those filings are the next confirmable milestone for FHN.
