Most of the increase in interest income was due to loan balances acquired in the FineMark acquisition. Increases in interest income occurred in the personal real estate, revolving home equity, consumer, business, and business real estate loan categories, while decreases occurred in the consumer credit card and construction and land loan categories. Interest income on investment securities (FTE) decreased $2.3 million mainly due to decreases in average balances of asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities, partly offset by an increase in average balances of U.S. government and federal agency obligations. Interest earned on asset-backed securities decreased $11.5 million mainly due to a decline in average balances of $478.2 million, while interest earned on mortgage-backed securities decreased $10.3 million mainly due to lower average balances of $741.6 million. These decreases in interest income on investment securities were partly offset by increases in interest earned on U.S. government and federal agency securities of $22.2 million due to higher average balances of $716.5 million, or 27.2%. Higher interest income of $5.0 million was earned on securities purchased under agreements to resell, which saw growth in both average balances and rates earned. Interest income on balances at the Federal Reserve decreased $3.8 million due to a 74 basis point decline in the average rate earned, partly offset by a $319.9 million increase in the average balance invested.

Previous wording
The allowance for credit losses decreased $3.2 million compared to prior quarter. The allowance for credit losses in the commercial portfolio decreased $1.6 million primarily due to decreases in the allowance on construction loans due to continued low loss rates and lower outstanding loan balances. Additionally, decreases in the allowance for credit losses in business loans lowered the overall allowance for credit losses in the commercial portfolio, due to lower business loan balances in certain industries and improvement in certain economic indicators, partially offset by an overall increase in outstanding business loan balances. The allowance for credit losses on the personal banking portfolio also decreased $1.6 million primarily due to a decrease in the allowance on the personal real estate loans, mostly due to improvements in home sale trends in certain markets. The decrease in allowance caused the allowance as a percentage of outstanding loans to decrease compared to the prior quarter. The forecast utilized to estimate the allowance for credit losses on loans at June 30, 2026 assumes slowing economic expansion and stable unemployment, and changes in the forecast utilized to estimate the allowance at June 30, 2026 did not significantly change the allowance estimate during the quarter.
Current wording
The allowance for credit losses increased $2.5 million compared to prior quarter. The allowance for credit losses in the commercial portfolio increased $3.8 million primarily due to increases in the allowance on business loans and business real estate loans, mainly due to higher outstanding loan balances coupled with an increase in commercial substandard loans. The allowance for credit losses on the personal banking portfolio decreased $1.3 million primarily due to a decrease in the allowance on the personal real estate loans. The forecast utilized to estimate the allowance for credit losses on loans at September 30, 2026 assumes continued elevated levels of inflation with slight improvements in unemployment causing a slight decrease in the allowance that was offset by the factors described above.
Previous wording
At June 30, 2026, the allowance for credit losses increased $15.9 million compared to the allowance for credit losses on loans at December 31, 2025. The most significant driver of the increase in the allowance for credit losses is due to an increase in loan balances as a result of the acquisition of FineMark, as the initial allowance for FineMark loans acquired was $22.8 million. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the allowance on the consumer and consumer credit card loan portfolios. The allowance as a percentage of outstanding loans decreased compared to December 31, 2025 due to the change in mix of loans caused by the acquisition which included more personal real estate loans that carry a lower allowance for credit losses than other classes. The allowance for credit losses on loans was $195.4 million at June 30, 2026 and was .94%, .97%, and 1.01% of total loans at June 30, 2026, March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively.
