•Net interest income totaled $308.1 million, an increase of $12.1 million over the prior quarter. Net interest margin was 2.68% for the third quarter of 2024 compared to 2.56% for the prior quarter, due to increased yields on our available-for-sale securities portfolio, combined with higher loan fees driven by payoffs and the funding shift from wholesale borrowings to interest-bearing deposits. For the third quarter of 2024, our core net interest margin excluding trading activities 1, a non-GAAP measure, was 3.02% compared to 2.94% in the prior quarter.
Current report
•Other operating expense totaled $341.0 million, an increase of $4.3 million. Personnel expense increased $15.7 million due to higher incentive compensation and regular compensation. Non-personnel expense decreased $11.4 million, largely due to our contribution to the BOKF Foundation in the prior quarter.
Current report
•Other gains, net, were $13.1 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared to $57.4 million in the second quarter of 2024. The prior quarter included a $53.8 million pre-tax gain on the conversion of our Visa B shares under the exchange offer announced by Visa, Inc. During the third quarter of 2024, we sold the remaining 133,472 converted shares of Visa common stock and realized an additional gain of $3.1 million.

•Other gains, net, were $74.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $16.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we sold our converted shares of Visa common stock and realized a gain of $56.9 million. We also recognized a $9.5 million gain on deferred compensation investments, which are held to offset the cost of various employee benefit programs, and a $6.2 million gain on merchant banking investments. These gains were partially offset by losses of $45.8 million on the repositioning of the available-for-sale securities portfolio. The prior period included $8.9 million in gain on alternative investments, primarily attributable to merchant banking activity, and $3.1 million on deferred compensation investments.
Current report

Current report
Non-personnel expense was $134.2 million, a decrease of $11.4 million. The prior quarter included a $13.6 million charitable donation to the BOKF Foundation. In the third quarter of 2024, the FDIC updated their estimate of the special assessment resulting in a benefit of $1.4 million, compared to $1.2 million of expense in the prior quarter. Net occupancy and equipment expense increased $1.8 million and data processing and communications expense grew $1.4 million, primarily due to ongoing projects.
Current report
Reportable Segments
Current report
Net interest income increased $3.9 million, or 2%, due to increased loan fees from early payoffs and increased non-use fees. Net recoveries were $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to net loans charged off of $6.1 million in the prior quarter.
Current report
Net interest income from Consumer Banking stayed consistent with the prior quarter at $65.3 million. Operating revenue was relatively unchanged from the prior quarter. Operating expense increased $2.7 million, or 5%.
Current report
Combined net interest income and fee revenue increased $2.9 million, or 2%, compared to the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to an increase in letter of credit fees and fees earned on derivative counterparty margin. Total revenue from institutional trading activities was relatively consistent with the prior quarter as the decline in U.S. agency residential mortgage-backed securities trading volumes was offset by increased net interest income from higher yields on trading securities. Personnel expense increased $2.9 million, or 4%, largely due to growth in incentive compensation expense.
Current report
Outstanding energy loan balances totaled $3.1 billion, or 13% of total loans at September 30, 2024, a $325 million decrease compared to June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to a more accommodative public debt market for the energy industry and merger activity in the sector.

Diversified sources of fees and commissions revenue are a significant part of our business strategy and represented 40% of combined net interest income before provision for credit losses and fees and commissions revenue for the second quarter of 2024. We believe that a variety of fee revenue sources provides diversification to changes resulting from market or economic conditions such as interest rates, values in the equity markets, commodity prices and consumer spending, all of which can be volatile. Many of the economic factors, such as decreasing interest rates, that we expect will result in a decline in net interest income or fiduciary and asset management revenue may also increase mortgage banking production volumes and related trading. The velocity of changes in market conditions and interest rates may result in timing differences between when offsetting impacts and benefits are realized. Generally, for operating revenues not as directly related to movement in interest rates, we expect growth to come through offering new products and services and by further development of our presence in other markets. However, current and future economic conditions, regulatory constraints, increased competition and saturation in our existing markets could affect the rate of future increases.

Personnel expense decreased $11.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2024.

Employee benefits expense decreased $2.0 million due to a seasonal decrease in payroll taxes, partially offset by higher healthcare costs. Regular compensation decreased $1.9 million. A greater amount of compensation expense was capitalized during the second quarter due to an annual update of standards costs for loan originations coupled with an increase in mortgage loan production volume. Share-based compensation was up $1.7 million reflecting changes in assumptions of certain performance-based equity awards.
Current wording
Personnel expense increased $15.7 million compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Deferred compensation, which is offset by changes in the fair value of deferred compensation investments, increased $1.8 million, directly related to market movements. Regular compensation increased $2.7 million, driven by additional staffing and a reduction in the amount of compensation expense capitalized during the third quarter. This was due to decreased loan production levels and the implementation of a significant project in the prior quarter.
