Net interest margin and funding costs

  • Net interest margin rose five basis points: Net interest margin was 2.52%, compared with 2.47% in the first quarter. Management attributed the increase primarily to an improved funding mix as brokered deposit usage was reduced. Source
  • Net interest income declined modestly: Net interest income was $62.4 million, compared with $63.7 million. Interest income and interest expense both fell, as average interest-earning balances declined and higher-cost brokered deposits were reduced. Source
  • Interest-bearing deposit costs eased: The average rate on interest-bearing deposits was 3.37%, down from 3.42% in the first quarter. Time deposits averaged 4.19%, down from 4.28%. Source

Loans and deposits

  • Total loans fell 4.6%: Total loans, including held for sale, were $6.7 billion, down 4.6% from the prior quarter-end. Declines in income-producing real estate loans were partly offset by commercial and industrial growth. Source
  • C&I deposits fell on timing: C&I deposits fell $108.9 million, or 5.90%, from the prior quarter. Management described the decline as timing dynamics rather than underlying relationship attrition. C&I loans including owner-occupied rose $83.2 million. Source
  • Total deposits fell 4.7%: Total deposits were $8.2 billion, down $0.4 billion or 4.7% from the prior quarter, with brokered deposits accounting for $301.5 million of the decline. Source
  • Insured deposit share declined: Estimated insured deposits were $5.9 billion, or 72.3% of deposits, compared with $6.4 billion, or 74.2% in the prior quarter. Management attributed the decrease mainly to money market, time deposit and brokered balances. Source

Costs and noninterest income

  • Noninterest expense fell $4.7 million: Noninterest expense was $44.0 million, compared with $48.7 million in the first quarter. Lower FDIC insurance expense and lower loan disposition expenses drove the decline. Source
