   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: legislation; general
economic conditions, especially in the Southeast; changes in interest rates;
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;
changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; other economic,
competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technical factors affecting
AmSouth's operations, products, services and prices; and the outcome of
litigation, which is inherently uncertain and depends on the findings of judges
and juries. 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)

                    Six Months Ended June 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 impact of adopting Statement 133 on AmSouth's financial condition was a
net-of-tax increase to other comprehensive income of 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. The
impact to net income of adopting Statement 133 was immaterial. 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 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 (Statement 141), "Business
Combinations", and Statement No. 142 (Statement 142), "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets". 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

                                       7


useful lives 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 (Statement 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of".

   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
in order to conform with the new criteria in Statement 141 for recognition
apart from goodwill. 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 $290.6 million, and unamortized identifiable intangible assets in
the amount of $16.4 million, all of which will be subject to the transition
provisions of Statements 141 and 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill
was $32.5 million and $14.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 and
the six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.

   Cash Flows--For the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, AmSouth paid
interest of $702,737,000 and $834,980,000, respectively. During the six months
ended June 30, 2001, AmSouth received income tax refunds of $12,601,000 and
during the six months ended June 30, 2000, AmSouth paid income taxes of
$31,068,000. Noncash transfers from loans to foreclosed properties for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, were $17,629,000 and $16,100,000,
respectively, and noncash transfers from foreclosed properties to loans were
$380,000 and $199,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2000,
noncash transfers from loans to available-for-sale securities and to other
assets of approximately $31,277,000 and $20,495,000, respectively, were made in
connection with the participation of loans to third-party conduits.

   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 six-month period ended June 30, 2001, AmSouth
recognized a net gain of $832,000 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 $725,000,000 of AmSouth's loans were designated
as the hedged items to the interest rate swap agreements at June 30, 2001.
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, AmSouth recognized a net gain
of $219,000 related to the ineffective portion of its hedging instruments.

   Comprehensive Income--Total comprehensive income was $144.9 million and
$359.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and $118.3
million and $234.4 million for the three and six months ended June 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
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 June 30, 2001, 29.9 million shares have been purchased under
this authorization at a cost of $499.1 million. Cash dividends of $0.21 per
common share were declared in the second quarter of 2001. This represents a
five percent increase over the dividend paid during the second quarter of 2000.

   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, nondeposit funding and off-balance sheet financial instruments.
Treasury & Other also includes income from bank owned life insurance policies,
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 summary of the segment
performance for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000:

   Securitizations--During the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, there were
no securitizations or transfers to the dealer conduits or residential mortgage
conduits. Therefore, no gains or losses on transfers were recognized during the
period ended June 30, 2001. No gains or losses were recognized on commercial
loans sold to third-party conduits nor was any retained interest recorded due
to the relatively short life of the commercial loans sold into the conduits
(average life of 30 days). The following table provides the assumptions used in
the subsequent valuation of retained interests at June 30, 2001, the cash flows
received from and paid to third-party conduits and securitization trusts during
the year and the sensitivity of the current fair value of residual cash flows
to a hypothetical immediate 10 and 20 percent adverse change in the current

   This sensitivity test is hypothetical and isolates the potential impact of
changes in a single assumption on total fair value. These and other assumptions
used in the calculation of fair values may in fact exhibit some correlation
(which would potentially magnify the impact of a scenario) or may exhibit some
negative correlation (which would potentially have some partial offsetting
benefit). Also, changes in assumptions do not provide linear results. Thus, it
is not possible to extrapolate the impact of other scenarios from these
projections.

                     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 June 30, 2001 and 2000, and the
related consolidated statement of earnings for the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, the consolidated statement of cash flows
for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, and the consolidated
statement of shareholders' equity for the six-month period ended June 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
June 30, 2001 of $133.5 million, or $.36 per share and $259.7 million, or $.70
per share for the first six months of 2001. In the same periods last year, net
income totaled $99.9 million, or $.26 per share, and $238.8 million, or $.61
per share, respectively. For the three months and six months ended June 30,
2001, AmSouth's return on average assets was 1.40 percent and 1.36 percent,
respectively, compared to .93 percent and 1.10 percent, respectively, for the
same periods in 2000. Return on equity increased to 18.72 percent and 18.40
percent for the second quarter and first half of 2001 from 13.84 percent and
16.42 percent for the second quarter and first six months of 2000.

   Total assets at June 30, 2001 were $38.4 billion, down from $38.9 billion at
year-end reflecting a decrease in Federal funds sold and securities purchased
under agreements to repurchase, offset by increases in loans and loans held for
sale and the investment portfolio. Loans net of unearned income at June 30,
2001 remained relatively stable with balances increasing $124 million over
year-end. Managed loans, which include loans contained in third-party conduits
and loans securitized, decreased by $801 million at June 30, 2001 from year-end
levels. This decrease was attributable to lower levels of residential first
mortgages and indirect auto loans. In addition, the decrease in managed loans
reflected a decrease in commercial loans primarily as a result of management's
decision, beginning in 2000, to reduce AmSouth's exposure to syndicated loans.
The decrease in these loan categories was offset by a $212 million increase in
home equity loans compared to December 31, 2000 levels. The investment
portfolio, which consists of available-for-sale (AFS) and held-to-maturity
(HTM) securities, increased to $9.0 billion at June 30, 2001, compared to $8.6
billion at December 31, 2000. On January 1, 2001, AmSouth transferred
approximately $2.1 billion of securities from HTM to AFS in conjunction with
AmSouth's adoption of Statement 133. Federal funds sold and securities
purchased under agreements to resell decreased to $1.0 billion at June 30, 2001
from $2.2 billion at December 31, 2000. The decrease reflected management's
decision to sell off lower yielding Federal funds to help fund consumer loan
growth and offset planned decreases in higher cost time deposits.

   On the funding side of the balance sheet, total deposits at June 30, 2001
decreased by $638 million compared to December 31, 2000. Excluding the $251
million decrease in foreign time deposits (Eurodollar deposits), domestic
deposits declined by $388 million. Decreases in domestic deposits occurred
primarily in higher-cost time deposits while noninterest-bearing demand
deposits also declined from year-end balances. These decreases were partially
offset by increases in interest checking and money market accounts. Federal
funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other
borrowed funds decreased by $189 million and $389 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
balance sheet restructuring transactions.

 Net Interest Income

   Net interest income (NII) on a fully taxable equivalent basis for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2001 was $359.0 and $699.3 million, respectively,
down $16.1 million, or 4.3 percent compared to the same quarter last year and
6.8 percent on a year-to-date basis. The decrease in net interest income was
primarily due to a decrease in average interest-earning assets, resulting from
the third quarter 2000 balance sheet restructuring. This restructuring also
contributed to a 33 basis point increase in the net interest margin for the
second quarter of 2001 versus the same quarter in 2000 and a 24 basis point
increase in the net interest margin for the first half of 2001 compared to the
same period in 2000 as the balance sheet restructuring removed lower yielding
assets from the balance sheet and freed up funds to pay down higher cost
borrowings. Compared with the immediately preceding quarter, second quarter
2001 NII increased $18.8 million or 22 percent annualized primarily as a result
of a 19 basis point increase in the margin. The increase in the margin
reflected the on-going shift of assets from Federal funds sold to consumer
loans and higher yielding investments, growth in low-cost deposits, and
favorable repricing of both deposits and purchased funds. AmSouth expects its
margin to

                                       14


remain fairly stable through the third quarter of 2001 with one of the key
drivers being the redeployment of Federal funds sold into higher yielding
assets. AmSouth expects improvement in the margin during the fourth quarter due
to the fact that approximately $2.2 billion of higher cost time deposits will
mature at that time.

 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 and changes in market conditions and
management's strategies, among other factors.

   Based on the results of the simulation model as of June 30, 2001, AmSouth
would expect NII to increase $3 million or approximately 0.2 percent and
decrease $5 million or approximately 0.3 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 June 30, 2000, the simulation model indicated that NII would
decrease $35 million or approximately 2.5 percent and increase $21 million or
approximately 1.4 percent if interest rates gradually increased or decreased,
respectively, from their then-current rates by 100 basis points over a 12-month
period.

   The reduction in AmSouth's interest sensitivity compared to the second
quarter of 2000 was primarily the result of the financial restructuring
initiated in the third quarter of 2000. As part of the financial restructuring,
AmSouth sold $4.0 billion of low-yielding fixed-rate investment securities and
securitized and sold approximately $1.0 billion of low-yielding fixed-rate
automobile loans. These fixed-rate assets were primarily funded by floating-
rate overnight and other short-term borrowings. This action reduced the impact
of interest rate fluctuations on NII. In comparison to December 31, 2000
results, the simulation model at June 30, 2001 showed a slight increase in
AmSouth's interest rate sensitivity. The change in the results of the
simulation model reflected an extension of the maturities of commercial paper
used by off-balance sheet conduits to fund loans previously purchased from
AmSouth. The extension of the commercial paper maturities, which occurred
during the first half of 2001, reduced the impact of interest rate changes,
over a 12-month period, on the interest spread received by AmSouth on these
loans. In addition, changes in the market dynamics as a result of Federal
Reserve rate cuts during the first half of the year, changes in the forecasted
mix of earning assets and changes in AmSouth's deposit pricing strategy also
impacted the change in the interest sensitivity results from year-end results.

   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 $446 million during the first six months of 2001. At June 30,
2001, AmSouth had interest rate swaps, all of which receive fixed rates,
totaling a notional amount of $2.2 billion. At June 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.

                                       15


 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 June 30, 2001, the allowance for loan losses was $380.7 million, or 1.54
percent of loans net of unearned income, compared to $346.0 million, or 1.35
percent, at June 30, 2000. This increase primarily reflected a deterioration of
credit quality in AmSouth's syndicated commercial loan portfolio primarily due
to a weakening economy. The coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to
nonperforming loans was 193.11 percent at June 30, 2001, a decrease from the
June 30, 2000 ratio of 290.58 percent.

   Net charge-offs for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, were $46.1 million, an
increase of $23.4 million from the $22.7 million reported a year earlier. For
the six months ended June 30, 2001, net charge-offs were $84.1 million compared
to $48.1 million for the same period of 2000. Annualized net charge-offs to
average loans net of unearned income were .75 percent and .69 percent,
respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, compared to .34
percent and .36 percent for the same periods of the prior year. The increase in
net charge-offs occurred primarily in the commercial loan, consumer revolving
credit and equity lending portfolio and reflected the impact of a slowing
economy. Commercial loan net charge-offs increased $26.0 million for the six
months versus the same period of 2000. Net charge-offs in the consumer
portfolio increased $9.5 million, reflecting higher charge-offs across all
consumer loan categories led by the revolving credit and equity lending
portfolios. Net charge-offs for the revolving credit portfolio and equity
lending portfolio increased $3.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively, for
the six months ended June 30, 2001 versus the same period of the prior year.
Annualized net charge-offs for the commercial, commercial real estate and
consumer loan portfolios were .92, .03 and .79 percent, respectively, for the
six months ended June 30, 2001, compared to .29, .01 and .56 percent,
respectively, for the same period of 2000. Consistent with the increased
charge-offs, the provision for loan losses for the second quarter and the first
half of 2001 was $46.1 million and $84.3 million, respectively, compared to
$22.8 million and $48.2 million for the corresponding year-earlier periods.
AmSouth currently anticipates an increase in net charge-offs during the second
half of 2001.

   Table 7 presents a five-quarter comparison of the components of
nonperforming assets. At June 30, 2001, nonperforming assets as a percentage of
loans net of unearned income, foreclosed properties and repossessions increased
37 basis points to 0.90 percent compared to 0.53 percent at June 30, 2000
reflecting an $89 million increase in nonperforming assets. This increase was
primarily associated with an increase in the level of nonperforming syndicated
commercial loans at June 30, 2001 compared to June 30, 2000.

   Included in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2001 and 2000, was $138.0
million and $61.0 million, respectively, in loans that were considered to be
impaired, substantially all of which were on a nonaccrual basis. At June 30,
2001 and 2000, there was $43.7 million and $20.6 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 June 30, 2001 and
2000, was $136.9 million and $56.3 million, respectively, and $132.7 million
and $60.0 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and
2000. AmSouth recorded no material interest income on its impaired loans during
the three and six months ended June 30, 2001.

 Noninterest Revenues and Noninterest Expenses

   Noninterest revenue (NIR) was $187.6 million during the second quarter of
2001 and $369.9 million for the first six months of 2001. The quarterly and the
six month totals represent a 14.5 percent and 15.8 percent

                                       16


decline from the corresponding periods in 2000. This decrease was primarily due
to the loss of revenues from the sale of IFC Holdings Inc. (IFC) in the third
quarter of 2000. Excluding the revenues from IFC in 2000, NIR increased by 2.9
percent in the second quarter of 2001 and 3.8 percent on a year-to-date basis
from adjusted NIR of $182.8 million and $356.7 million for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 2000, respectively. The increase in NIR versus the IFC
adjusted prior year numbers was primarily due to higher revenues generated from
service charges on deposits, consumer investment services income, interchange
income, and bank owned life insurance income (BOLI). These increases were
offset by decreases in mortgage and portfolio income and, on a quarterly
comparison, trust income. 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 and NSF fees. Excluding IFC generated revenue,
consumer investment services income increased $840 thousand or approximately
3.9 percent versus the second quarter of 2000 and $4.3 million or 10.3 percent
versus the first six months of 2000. The increase in consumer investment
services income reflected higher annuity income from AmSouth's platform annuity
sales program. Interchange income for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2001 was $1.1 million and $2.1 million higher, respectively, than the
corresponding periods last year due to higher levels of checkcard usage. BOLI
grew due to increases in cash surrender values and, on a year-to-date basis,
the receipt of a benefit payment in the first quarter of 2001. Partially
offsetting these increases was a decrease in mortgage income, which declined by
approximately $5.0 million and $10.2 million for the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 2001 compared to the same prior year periods. This decline
reflected an $8.0 million quarterly and $15.3 million year-to-date decrease in
gains from the sale of mortgage loans to third-party conduits, partially offset
by higher secondary marketing gains on the bulk sale of mortgage loans and
servicing. Portfolio income, adjusted for the impact of the IFC sale, decreased
by $600 thousand and $1.2 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30,
2001 compared to the same periods of 2000. This decrease was the result of
fewer sales of AFS securities in 2001. While higher on a year-to-date basis,
trust income was lower in the second quarter of 2001 compared to the prior year
period, reflecting a drop in net assets under management, primarily as a result
of declining market values. Management anticipates that sustainable NIR growth
in a range of five to eight percent may be achievable over the next twelve
months.

   Noninterest expenses (NIE) decreased from the prior year by 28.8 percent and
24.2 percent for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001. Excluding
the impact of merger-related charges and expenses related to IFC, NIE increased
2.0 percent or $5.7 million for the quarter compared to $286.3 million in NIE
for the same period of 2000. The increase primarily reflected higher salaries
and employee benefits and communication expenses partially offset by decreases
in equipment expense, postage and supplies costs and marketing expenses. On a
year-to-date basis, NIE remained flat compared to the adjusted NIE amount of
$579.9 million for the first six months of 2000 with increases in salaries and
employee benefits and communication expense partially offset by decreases in
marketing, net occupancy and equipment expense. Salaries and employee benefits
increased $7.7 million and $3.5 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. Communications expense, primarily driven by computer line
and wide-area network expense, increased $671 thousand on a quarterly basis and
$1.6 million year-to-date compared to corresponding periods in 2000, excluding
IFC. Partially offsetting these increases, marketing expense, excluding the
impact of IFC, decreased $462 thousand or 5.1 percent and $3.9 million or 18.6
percent for the second quarter and first six months of 2001. The decrease was
primarily due to cost control initiatives implemented in 2000. Equipment
expense, excluding IFC, decreased for the quarter by 2.7 percent to $30.2
million and 4.2 percent on a year-to-date basis, primarily due to synergies
achieved as a result of the merger with First American. Postage and supplies,
excluding IFC, decreased $1.6 million for the three month period ended June 30,
2001, primarily due to charges taken in the second quarter of 2000 related to
the stocking of forms at former First American branches. Net occupancy expense,
while increasing slightly in the second quarter, was lower by $1.1 million
year-to-date, adjusting for 2000 expenses related to IFC. As a result of the
sale of IFC, no expenses for subscriber commissions were incurred in 2001,
compared to $27.3 million and $57.9 million in the second quarter and first six
months of last year. NIE growth is estimated to be in the range of three to
five percent over the next twelve months excluding the impact of the
amortization of goodwill.

                                       17


 Capital Adequacy

   At June 30, 2001, shareholders' equity totaled $2.9 billion or 7.6 percent
of total assets. Since December 31, 2000, shareholders' equity increased $94.0
million primarily as a result of net income for the six months of $259.7
million. In addition, shareholders' equity increased $86.8 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 $12.8 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 $159.2
million and the purchase of 7.5 million shares of AmSouth common stock for
$129.4 million during the first six months of 2001.

   Table 10 presents the capital amounts and risk-adjusted capital ratios for
AmSouth and AmSouth Bank at June 30, 2001 and 2000. At June 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 June 30, 2001.

NOTES:

1. The weighted average remaining life, which reflects the amortization on
   mortgage related and other asset-backed securities, and the weighted average
   yield on the combined held-to-maturity and available-for-sale portfolios at
   June 30, 2001, were approximately 4.7 years and 6.66%, respectively.
   Included in the combined portfolios was $7.5 billion of mortgage-backed
   securities. The weighted-average remaining life and the weighted-average
   yield of mortgage-backed securities at June 30, 2001, were approximately
   4.3 years and 6.63%, respectively. The duration of the combined portfolios,
   which considers the repricing frequency of variable rate securities, is
   approximately 3.1 years.

2. The available-for-sale portfolio included net unrealized gains of $98.1
   million and unrealized losses of $206.3 million at June 30, 2001 and 2000,
   respectively.

                               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 lawsuits against
AmSouth have been filed in Mississippi relative to the amount of deposits held
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.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

   The regular Annual Meeting of Shareholders of AmSouth was held on April 19,
2001, at which meeting the shareholders (i) elected four nominees as directors,
and (ii) approved an amendment to AmSouth's 1996 Long Term Incentive
Compensation Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock reserved
under the plan. The following is a tabulation of the voting on these matters.
