Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses for the second quarter of 2015 were $25.0 million, up $1.1 million, or 5%, on a linked quarter basis, and up $1.9 million, or 8%, compared to the second quarter one year ago. For the first six months of 2015, noninterest expense totaled $48.8 million, up $3.0 million, or 7%, over $45.8 million recorded for the first half of 2014.
Due to the immediate vesting of all outstanding options under the 2006 Employee Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the Plan), Metro recorded accelerated stock-based compensation expenses totaling $1.4 million during the second quarter of 2015. A total of $823,000 of this expense is not deductible for federal tax purposes. The accelerated vesting was triggered by a provision in the Plan which provided for such acceleration upon a change in the identity of at least four (4) members of the board of directors or the addition of four (4) or more new members to the board of directors, or any combination of the foregoing, within any two (2) consecutive calendar year periods. As a result of this full acceleration charge, Metro will not recognize any further compensation expense related to these vested options in future periods.
Metro had previously entered into a land lease for the premises located at the corner of Airport Rd & Rt. 501 (Lititz Pike), Manheim Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where Metro had planned to construct a full-service store. During the second quarter of 2015, the lease was terminated without penalty. As a result, Metro wrote off $499,000 of accumulated costs associated with pre-construction activities, including site studies and plans as well as engineering and legal costs.
As previously announced in April 2015, Metro permanently closed two stores effective June 30, 2015. As a result of these store closures, Metro accelerated the remaining depreciation on certain assets at these locations during the first and second quarters of 2015. The accelerated depreciation recognized in occupancy and equipment expense totaled $462,000 during the second quarter of 2015 and $755,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Beginning in the third quarter of 2015, Metro will experience a reduction in total occupancy and equipment expenses as the stores are no longer in operation.

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This document contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The tables that follow present reconciliations of certain non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These reconciliations exclude certain nonrecurring charges incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, which the Company believes do not reflect the operating performance of the Company during those periods. These nonrecurring charges include (1) stock-based compensation expense related to the immediate vesting of all outstanding employee stock options during the second quarter of 2015, (2) a write-off during the second quarter of 2015 of pre-construction costs related to a terminated land lease agreement for a planned future store, and (3) accelerated depreciation expense recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 due to closing two stores. There have not been similar nonrecurring charges within the prior two years and, based on current information, the Company believes these charges are not reasonably likely to recur within two years. Additionally, these reconciliations exclude net gains from the sales of securities for all periods presented. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of the Company and believes this presentation also increases the comparability of period-to-period results.
The Company believes these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP measures, provide useful information for investors to evaluate the Company’s results. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP measures, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other companies.
