Key Points

Positve
  • Successful core system conversion with minimal disruptions, integrating nearly 20,000 clients and over 55,000 accounts.
  • Completed the sale of approximately $1.95 billion of CIVIC loans, freeing up approximately $100 million in Tier 1 capital.
  • Paid down $1 billion in higher-cost BTFP funding, contributing to net interest margin (NIM) expansion.
  • Generated $230 million in new non-interest bearing deposits from new relationships in just two quarters.
  • Originated over $1 billion in loan commitments during the second quarter alone.
Negative
  • Net charge-offs were elevated in the second quarter due to charge-offs related to the CIVIC portfolio and several commercial real estate loans.
  • Increase in criticized and classified loans due to downgrading several rate-sensitive loans.
  • Non-interest income was down from the prior quarter, primarily due to lower levels of other income from mark-to-market adjustments.
  • Total non-interest expense was impacted by several items, including adjustments to acquisition-related costs and continued elevation in FDIC expenses.
  • The overall climate for lending remains sluggish, with traditional real estate lending showing lower momentum.
