Q2 2021 Non-Interest Income 6 The net gain on OREO & other assets of $4.0 million was due to a gain earned on an investment made by WSBC’s Community Development Corporation in a start-up firm more than ten years ago that was recently acquired by a public company Electronic banking fees increased due primarily to increased point-of-sale transactions and ATM volumes Trust fees increased due to market value appreciation and organic growth in trust assets under management to a record $5.5 billion Loan swap-related income, which is recorded in other income, of $1.0 million was offset by a negative $1.0 million of fair market value adjustments, as compared, respectively, to $3.5 million and a negative $0.5 million last year Note: OREO = other real estate owned
