+Added: The increases during both periods were largely from the rate increases associated with the Company’s interest-bearing Federal Reserve Bank clearing account.
+Added: As previously mentioned, the Federal
+Added: Reserve took action during the first half of 2022 to increase the target federal funds rate by 150 basis points due to rising inflationary concerns.
+Added: This had a corresponding effect to the interest rate tied to the Federal Reserve clearing account,
+Added: which also increased by 150 basis points.
+Added: The impact from higher rates was partially offset by lower average Federal Reserve Bank balances, which decreased $17,673 during the second quarter of 2022, and $3,343 during the first half of 2022, compared to
+Added: the same periods in 2021.
+Added: The Company utilized Federal Reserve Bank balances to help fund new loans and security purchases during the first half of 2022.
+Added: Total interest on securities increased $357, or 66.2%, during the second quarter of 2022, and increased $635, or 63.3%, during the first half of 2022, compared to the same
+Added: periods in 2021.
+Added: Due to the surge in deposits and proceeds from PPP loan payoffs, the Company has taken opportunities to reinvest a portion of these excess funds into new U.S.
+Added: Government, Agency and Agency mortgage-backed securities.
+Added: This contributed
+Added: to average security balance increases of $47,173 during the second quarter of 2022 and $58,104 during the first half of 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021.
+Added: The average yield on securities also increased 38 basis points during the second quarter
+Added: of 2022 and 23 basis points during the first half of 2022, which contributed to growth in interest income.
+Added: This change was partly impacted by the Company’s decision to sell $48,732 in lower yielding securities during the fourth quarter of 2021 that
+Added: carried an average yield of 0.89% and replace them with similar securities at an average yield of 1.30%.
+Added: Total interest expense incurred on the Company’s interest-bearing liabilities decreased $316, or 32.1%, during the second quarter of 2022, and decreased $727, or 32.3%,
+Added: during the first half of 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021.
+Added: Interest expense decreased despite increases in average interest-bearing deposits of $11,169 during the second quarter of 2022, and $21,321 during the first half of 2022, compared to
+Added: the same periods in 2021.
+Added: The converse relationship between increasing average interest-bearing liabilities to lower interest expense is related to the repricing efforts in a lower rate environment, which drove down average costs during 2020 and 2021.
+Added: Lower deposit expense was mostly impacted by the continued decline in CD rates, which contributed to a $296 decrease in time deposit interest expense during the second quarter of 2022, and a $646 decrease during the first half of 2022, compared to the
+Added: same periods in 2021.
As CD rates have repriced downward, the Company has benefited from lower interest expense on newly issued CDs at lower rates.
−Removed: result of the rate repricing on time deposits, the Company’s total weighted average costs on interest-bearing deposits has decreased by 23 basis points from 0.52% at March 31, 2021 to 0.29% at March 31, 2022.
+Added: As a result of the rate repricings on time deposits, the Company’s total weighted average costs on
+Added: interest-bearing deposits has decreased by 19 basis points from 0.48% at June 30, 2021, to 0.29% at June 30, 2022.

−Removed: During 2022, the
−Removed: Company’s first quarter net interest margin finished at 3.51%, compared to 2021’s first quarter net interest margin of 3.73%.
−Removed: The decrease in margin was largely impacted by the decrease in PPP loan fees and a low interest rate environment that impacted
−Removed: lower earning asset yields during 2022.
−Removed: While average earning assets were up during the first quarter of 2022, the increase came largely from lower yielding securities and Federal Reserve clearing account balances, which had a dilutive effect to the
−Removed: net interest margin during the first quarter of 2022.
+Added: During 2022, the Company’s second
+Added: quarter net interest margin improved to 3.64%, compared to 2021’s second quarter net interest margin of 3.58%.
+Added: The Company’s year-to-date net interest margin finished at 3.58% at June 30, 2022, compared to 2021’s year-to-date net interest margin of
+Added: The year-to-date margin decrease was largely impacted by the decrease in PPP loan fees and a low interest rate environment that impacted lower earning asset yields during 2022 combined with decreases in average loan balances.
+Added: The quarterly
+Added: margin increase was impacted by the redeployment of lower yielding Federal Reserve Bank balances into higher yielding loans and securities.
+Added: This composition shift from lower yielding Federal Reserve clearing account balances limited the dilutive effect
+Added: to the net interest margin during the second quarter of 2022.
+Added: Furthermore, the actions taken by the Federal Reserve to increase rates by 125 basis points during the second quarter of 2022 had a direct impact to the rate repricings of the Federal
+Added: Reserve Bank account and a portion of the loan portfolio, which had a positive impact on the margin.
The Company’s primary focus is to invest its funds into higher yielding assets, particularly loans, as opportunities arise.
−Removed: However, if loan balances do not continue to expand and remain a larger
−Removed: component of overall earning assets, the Company will face pressure within its net interest income and margin improvement.

−Removed: This was primarily from lower charge-offs
−Removed: recorded within the commercial real estate portfolio.

+Added: corresponding increases to provision expense.
+Added: During the first half of 2022, net charge offs increased $620 compared to the same period in 2021, due in large part to the charge off of a single borrower relationship discussed above.
