Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (In Thousands) Nature of Operations: Renasant Corporation (referred to herein as the “Company”) owns and operates Renasant Bank (“Renasant Bank” or the “Bank”), Renasant Insurance, Inc. (“Renasant Insurance”) and Park Place Capital Corporation. The Company offers a diversified range of financial, wealth management and insurance services to its retail and commercial customers through its subsidiaries and full-service offices located throughout north and central Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and north Florida. Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. For further information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2020. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material. Impact of Recently-Issued Accounting Standards and Pronouncements: In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which updated Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASC 326”). ASU 2016-13 significantly changed the way entities recognize impairment on many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the asset’s remaining life. FASB describes this impairment recognition model as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model and believes the CECL model will result in more timely recognition of credit losses since the CECL model incorporates expected credit losses versus incurred credit losses. The scope of FASB’s CECL model includes loans, held-to-maturity debt instruments, lease receivables, loan commitments and financial guarantees that are not accounted for at fair value. Additionally, ASU 2016-13 amended the accounting for credit losses on available for sale securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration (“PCD”). In the remainder of these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, unless the context clearly provides otherwise, references to “CECL” or to “ASC 326” shall mean the accounting standards and principles set forth in ASC 326 after giving effect to ASU 2016-13 and the clarifications thereto discussed in the next paragraph. Over the course of 2018 and 2019, FASB issued a number of updates clarifying various matters arising under ASU 2016-13, including the following: (1) ASU 2018-19 was issued to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20; instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”); (2) ASU 2019-04 provides entities alternatives for measurement of accrued interest receivable, clarifies the steps entities should take when recording the transfer of loans or debt securities between measurement classifications or categories and clarifies that entities should include expected recoveries on financial assets; (3) ASU 2019-05 was issued to provide entities that have certain instruments within the scope of Subtopic 320-20 with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10; and (4) ASU 2019-11 was issued to address stakeholders’ specific issues relating to expected recoveries on PCD assets and transition and disclosure relief related to troubled debt restructured loans and accrued interest, respectively. ASU 2016-13 became effective on January 1, 2020 for publicly-traded companies like the Company, and the Company elected not to take advantage of federal legislation enacted in March 2020 allowing it to postpone the adoption of CECL. To implement CECL, entities are required to apply a one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption, as disclosed in the table below.

The Company used the prospective transition approach for PCD loans that were previously classified as purchased credit impaired (“PCI”) and accounted for under ASC 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality” (“ASC 310-30”). As permitted under ASC 326, the Company did not reassess whether PCI assets meet the criteria of PCD assets as of the date of adoption. As shown in the table above, the amortized cost basis of the PCD assets was adjusted to reflect the addition of $5,469 to the allowance for credit losses. The remaining noncredit discount will be accreted into interest income. The prospective transition approach was also used for debt securities for which other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized prior to January 1, 2020. As a result, the amortized cost basis remained the same before and after the effective date of the adoption of CECL. Additionally, the Company has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost of loans. As of September 30, 2020, the Company has accrued interest receivable for loans of $56,382, which is recorded in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)” (“ASU 2017-04”), which amends and simplifies current goodwill impairment testing by eliminating certain testing under the earlier provisions. Under the new guidance, an entity performs the goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. ASU 2017-04 was adopted on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. In August 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”), which is intended to improve the disclosures on fair value measurements by eliminating, amending and adding certain disclosure requirements. These changes are intended to reduce costs for preparers while providing more useful information for financial statement users. ASU 2018-13 was adopted on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. In March 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements” (“ASU 2019-01”), which is intended to clarify potential implementation questions related to ASC 842. This includes clarification on the determination of fair value of underlying assets by lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers, cash flow presentation of sales-type and direct financing leases and transition disclosures related to accounting changes and error corrections. ASU 2019-01 was adopted on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 842): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides temporary, optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions if certain criteria are met that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. As the guidance is intended to assist stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period, it is in effect only from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has established a LIBOR Transition Committee and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2020-04 on the Company's financial statements.
