It has been a tough year so far for First Horizon, the holding company for Memphis-based First Horizon Bank. While it had decent first-quarter results, with year-over-year gains in revenue and earnings, it faced a double whammy of bad news in recent weeks. First the banking crisis hurt the bank, as it did most small and regional bank stocks , even though its deposits held up relatively well. Then, earlier this month, it was announced by both banks that the planned acquisition of First Horizon by TD Bank was off -- by mutual consent.
