For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities increased to 0.98% and 0.94% , respectively, from 0.65% and 0.62% , respectively, in the corresponding prior year periods.

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 , increase d by $449,000 , as compared to the prior linked quarter, as average interest-earning assets increase d by $181.3 million .

The total cost of deposits (including non-interest bearing deposits) was 0.62% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to 0.57% for three months ended March 31, 2019 .
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , the provision for loan losses was $356,000 and $976,000 , respectively, as compared to $706,000 and $2.1 million , respectively, for the corresponding prior year period, and $620,000 in the prior linked quarter. Net loan charge-offs were $926,000 and $1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, as compared to net loan charge-offs of $832,000 and $1.1 million in the corresponding prior year periods, and net loan charge-offs of $492,000 in the prior linked quarter. Non-performing loans totaled $17.8 million at June 30, 2019 , as compared to $20.9 million at March 31, 2019 and $18.1 million at June 30, 2018 .

4


June 30, 2019 , respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods. Excluding the Capital Bank acquisition, the increase in other income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to a decrease in the loss from real estate operations of $860,000, an increase in derivative fee income of $612,000, partially offset by decreases in fees and service charges of $724,000. Excluding the Capital Bank acquisition, the increase in other income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to a decrease in the loss from real estate operations of $1.3 million, an increase in derivative fee income of $1.1 million, an increase in bankcard services of $553,000, partially offset by decreases in fees and service charges of $1.0 million, rental income of $704,000 received primarily for January and February 2018 on the Company’s executive office, and the gain on sale of loans of $608,000 (mostly related to the sale of one non-performing commercial loan relationship during 2018).
For the three months ended June 30, 2019 , other income increased by $367,000 , as compared to the prior linked quarter. The increase was due to a full quarter of Capital Bank activity and an increase in bankcard services, partially offset by an increase in the loss from other real estate operations.
Operating expenses were flat at $50.9 million and decreased to $98.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, as compared to $50.9 million and $107.7 million , respectively, in the same prior year periods. Operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 included $8.9 million and $14.3 million, respectively, of merger related expenses, branch consolidation expenses, and compensation expense due to the retirement of an executive officer, as compared to $8.4 million and $26.7 million, respectively, of merger related and branch consolidation expenses, in the same prior year periods. Excluding the impact of merger related expenses, branch consolidation expenses, and compensation expense due to the retirement of an executive officer, the change in operating expenses over the prior year was due to the Capital Bank acquisition, which added $1.9 million and $3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively. Excluding the Capital Bank acquisition, the decrease in operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 over the prior year period was primarily due to decreases in compensation and employee benefits expense of $2.2 million, occupancy

5


expenses and federal insurance premium, partially offset by increases in check card processing and marketing expenses. Excluding the Capital Bank acquisition, the remaining decrease in operating expenses, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from the prior year period, was primarily due to decreases in compensation and employee benefits expense of $1.8 million, a decrease in federal insurance premium and a decrease in occupancy expense, partially offset by increases in marketing expenses of $611,000, and check card processing of $597,000.
For the three months ended June 30, 2019 , operating expenses, excluding merger, branch consolidation expenses, and compensation expense due to the retirement of an executive officer increased by $206,000, as compared to the prior linked quarter. The increase was primarily due to a full quarter of Capital Bank which resulted in an increase of $435,000, as compared to the prior linked quarter.
The provision for income taxes was $4.5 million and $9.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, as compared to $3.0 million and $4.0 million , respectively, for the same prior year periods. The effective tax rate was 19.0% and 18.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, as compared to 16.1% and 16.0% , respectively, for the same prior year periods. The lower effective tax rates in the prior year periods were primarily due to larger tax benefits from employee stock option exercises.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Reported amounts are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company’s management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information, which consists of reported net income excluding merger related expenses, branch consolidation expenses, compensation expense due to the retirement of an executive officer, and the impact to income tax expense related to the revaluation of deferred tax assets as required under Tax Reform, which can vary from period to period, provides a better comparison of period to period operating performance. Additionally, the Company believes this information is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies. Please refer to Non-GAAP Reconciliation table at the end of this document for details on the earnings impact of these items.
Conference Call
As previously announced, the Company will host an earnings conference call on Friday, July 26, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The direct dial number for the call is (888) 338-7143.
