Loans

Loan portfolio composition at the dates indicated follows (dollars in thousands):

For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, total loans declined by $308 million. The core C&I and CRE sub-segments declined by $106 million; while production was in line with expectations, seasonality and a continued high level of unscheduled payoffs and strategic exits contributed to the decline. Consistent with our balance sheet strategy, residential loans declined by $116 million, and the franchise, equipment, and municipal finance portfolios declined by an aggregate $80 million.

Asset Quality and the ACL

The following table presents information about the ACL at the dates indicated as well as net charge-off rates for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (dollars in thousands):

The ACL at March 31, 2025 represents management's estimate of lifetime expected credit losses given an assessment of historical data, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable economic forecast as of the balance sheet date. For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the provision for credit losses, including both funded and unfunded loan commitments, was $15.1 million, compared to $11.0 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2024 and $15.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The most significant factor leading to the decrease in ACL for the quarter was net charge offs, the impact of which was partially offset by increases in specific reserves, risk rating migration and an increase in qualitative overlays, particularly related to economic uncertainty.

The following table summarizes the activity in the ACL for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Total criticized and classified commercial loans were essentially flat quarter-over-quarter, as shown in the following table (in thousands):

Non-performing loans totaled $259.8 million or 1.08% of total loans at March 31, 2025, compared to $250.7 million or 1.03% of total loans at December 31, 2024. Non-performing loans included $33.0 million and $34.3 million of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans on non-accrual status, representing 0.14% of total loans at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was $233.1 million, compared to $239.3 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2024, and $214.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. Interest income decreased by $24.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to the immediately preceding quarter, while interest expense decreased by $18.2 million. The quarter-over-quarter decline in interest income related to lower yields on interest earning assets as coupon rates on floating rate instruments reset down and to a lesser extent, the lower average balance of interest earning assets. The decline in interest expense related to both a lower average cost of funds and lower average balance of interest bearing liabilities.

The Company鈥檚 net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased by 0.03% to 2.81% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, from 2.84% for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2024. The decline in margin reflects the impact of a declining rate environment on a modestly asset sensitive balance sheet and expiration of certain cash flow hedges. Factors impacting the net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 were:

• The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits declined to 3.54% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, from 3.75% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. This decline reflected continued initiatives taken to lower rates paid on deposits as short-term market rates declined, including the re-pricing of time deposits.

• The average rate paid on FHLB advances declined to 3.69% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 from 3.82% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to repayment of higher rate short-term advances partially offset by expiration of cash flow hedges.

• The tax-equivalent yield on loans declined to 5.48% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, from 5.60% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The primary driver of this decrease was coupon rate resets on variable rate loans.

• The tax-equivalent yield on investments declined to 5.07% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, from 5.31% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. This decrease resulted primarily from coupon rate resets on variable rate securities.
