Total equity was $1.44 billion at September 30, 2013, a decrease of $194.2 million, or 11.9%, from $1.63 billion at December 31, 2012, primarily due to the redemptions in two equal installments on March 20, 2013 and on September 30, 2013 of Bancorp’s $258 million of Series B Preferred Stock issued under the U.S. Treasury's TARP Capital Purchase Program and increases in unrealized losses on securities available for sale of $21.6 million offset by $91.7 million in net income.

The accumulated other comprehensive loss as of September 30, 2013, was all from unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale.
