Earnings

Net income for the second quarter of 2021 was $29.6 million, or $0.31 per share, compared to $39.8 million, or $0.41 per share in the first quarter of 2021 and $23.9 million, or $0.24 per share for the second quarter of 2020.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income (FTE) of $68.5 million decreased $1.3 million from the previous quarter and increased $1.4 million from the prior year quarter.The decrease from the previous quarter was primarily due to a $2.4 million decrease in fees and interest on PPP loans, partially offset by the effects of a $356.1 million increase in average investment securities and a $69.6 million decrease in higher-cost time deposits.Interest and fee income recognized on PPP loans totaled $5.5 million in the second quarter of 2021 as compared to $7.9 million in the prior quarter.

The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2021 was 3.17%, a decrease of 23 basis points from the previous quarter and a decrease of 12 basis points from the second quarter of 2020.The decrease from the previous quarter was due primarily to an 11 basis point decrease in the yield on loans (excluding PPP loans) and a 147 basis point

decrease in the yield on PPP loans (inclusive of loan forgiveness), partially offset by a seven basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

Total average deposits grew $375.9 million in the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the previous quarter.Average noninterest bearing deposits grew $190.8 million and offset a $69.6 million decrease in average time deposits.

Total end-of-period deposits grew $15.8 million from the previous quarter.

Asset Quality

The Company adopted CECL on December 31, 2020, effective January 1, 2020.

Provision expense in the second quarter of 2021 totaled $5.4 million as compared to ($4.4) million in the previous quarter.The provision expense during the quarter was a reflection of an improved economic forecast offset by strong end-of-period loan growth and a $1.2 million increase in unfunded commitment reserves.

At June 30, 2021, nonperforming loans totaled $52.8 million, an increase of $2.4 million from the previous quarter and a decrease of $3.2 million from the second quarter of 2020.Nonperforming loans represented 0.82% of total loans (excluding PPP loans) as compared to 0.80% and 0.88% for the periods ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

At June 30, 2021, criticized loans totaled $250.4 million, a decrease of $21.7 million from the previous quarter.

During the second quarter of 2021, net charge-offs were $3.9 million as compared to $3.3 million in the previous quarter and $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2020.Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2021 were negatively impacted by a $3.6 million charge-off related to an individual commercial borrower.

Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans (excluding PPP, annualized) were 0.25%, 0.21% and 0.28% for the periods ended June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense

Noninterest income (excluding net security gains) totaled $26.1 million for the second quarter of 2021, as compared to $27.3 million for the first quarter of 2021 and $21.8 million for the second quarter of 2020.

The $1.2 million decrease from the previous quarter was primarily due to a $2.0 million decrease in gain on sale of mortgage loans due to an increase in new mortgage originations being retained in the Bank's loan portfolio and a $1.7 million decrease in the derivative mark-to-market adjustment on interest rate swaps as a result of changes in fair value due to movement in bond spreads, swap rates and counterparty credit risk, which negatively impacted noninterest income.These decreases were partially offset by a $1.1 million increase in fee income related to new interest rate swaps due to increased commercial demand and a $1.0 million increase in card-related interchange income.

Noninterest expense (excluding branch consolidation, early retirement and COVID-19 related expenses) totaled $51.3 million for the second quarter of 2021, as compared to $51.7 million for the first quarter of 2021 and $52.3 million for the second quarter of 2020.The $0.4 million decrease from the previous quarter was primarily the result of a $0.9 million decrease in occupancy expense due to seasonally higher snow removal in the previous quarter and a $0.5 million decrease in contributions, partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in hospitalization expense and a $0.4 million increase in Pennsylvania shares tax.

The core efficiency ratio was 53.21% during the second quarter of 2021 as compared to 53.18% in the previous quarter and 56.73% in the second quarter of 2020.

Full time equivalent staff was 1,392 at June 30, 2021, 1,387 at March 31, 2021, and 1,465 at June 30, 2020.The decrease from the prior year quarter is the result of a company-wide hiring freeze implemented at the end of the first quarter of 2020 and the consolidation of 20% of the Bank’s branch facilities in the fourth quarter of 2020.
