Investment securities at June 30, 2016 decreased $17.0 million to $602.6 million, representing 9.6 percent of total assets, as compared to $619.6 million, or 10.0 percent of total assets, at March 31, 2016, and decreased approximately $4.4 million from $607.0 million, or 10.0 percent of total assets, at December 31, 2015.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income increased $1.1 million to $50.3 million during the second quarter of 2016 from the first quarter driven by the growth in interest earning assets as the net interest margin decreased 1 basis point to 3.44 percent.

PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

The Company recorded a provision for loan and lease losses of $2.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, compared to $2.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Net charge-offs increased $3.6 million to $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2016 from $0.4 million for the first quarter of 2016 due to a $3.4 million charge off of a commercial relationship which had a specific reserve of $3.3 million recorded in a prior period. As a result, the ratio of net charge-offs to average loans on an annualized basis increased to 31 basis points for the second quarter of 2016 from 3 basis points for the first quarter of 2016.

The allowance for loan and lease losses represented 1.09 percent of total loans and leases at June 30, 2016, compared to 1.14 percent at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 decreased $1.1 million to $5.4 million from $6.5 million for the first quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease of $0.6 million in gain on sales of loans and leases held-for-sale and a decrease of $0.4 million due to lower loan level derivative income.

Non-interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 increased $0.2 million to $32.3 million from $32.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The Company's efficiency ratio was 57.97 percent at June 30, 2016, compared with 57.57 percent at March 31, 2016.

    (1) Tax-exempt income on
     debt securities, equity
     securities and revenue bonds
     included in commercial real
     estate loans is included on
     a tax-equivalent basis.

    (2) Average balances include
     unrealized gains (losses) on
     investment securities.
     Dividend payments may not be
     consistent and average yield
     on equity securities may
     vary from month to month.

    (3) Loans on nonaccrual
     status are included in the
     average balances.

    (4) Interest rate spread
     represents the difference
     between the yield on
     interest-earning assets and
     the cost of interest-
     bearing liabilities.

    (5) Net interest margin
     represents net interest
     income (tax-equivalent
     basis) divided by average
     interest-earning assets.

    (1) Tax-exempt income on
     debt securities, equity
     securities and revenue bonds

    (2) Average balances include
     unrealized gains (losses) on
     investment securities.
     Dividend payments may not be
     consistent and average yield
     on equity securities may
     vary from month to month.

    (3) Loans on nonaccrual
     status are included in the
     average balances.

    (4) Interest rate spread
     represents the difference
     between the yield on
     interest-earning assets and
     the cost of interest-
     bearing liabilities.

    (5) Net interest margin
     represents net interest
     income (tax-equivalent
     basis) divided by average
     interest-earning assets.
