The Company’s NIM increased 13 basis points (“bps”) from 4.38% in the previous quarter to 4.51% during the current quarter due to an increase on loan yields. Cost of deposits increased 7 bps during the second quarter of 2018 compared to the prior quarter.
Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2018 includes accretion income of $14.5 million and average purchase accounting loan discounts of $117 million, compared to accretion income of $8.1 million and average purchase accounting loan discounts of $77 million for the second quarter of 2017. Accretion income increased approximately $3.8 million to $14.5 million for the second quarter of 2018 from $10.8 million for the first quarter of 2018, which is mainly attributable to $4.0 million of income recognized due to prepayments on one PCI loan relationship.
The table below summarizes yields and costs by various interest earning asset and interest bearing liability account types for the current quarter, the previous calendar quarter and the same quarter last year.

Explanation of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), including adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share diluted, adjusted return on average assets, adjusted return on average equity, return on average tangible equity, adjusted return on average tangible equity, adjusted efficiency ratio, adjusted non-interest income, adjusted non-interest expense, adjusted net-interest income, tangible common equity, tangible common equity to tangible assets, common tangible equity per common share, tax equivalent yields on loans, securities and earning assets, and tax equivalent net interest spread and margin, which we refer to “Non-GAAP financial measures.” The tables below provide reconciliations between these Non-GAAP measures and net income, interest income, net interest income and tax equivalent basis interest income and net interest income, return on average assets, return on average equity, the efficiency ratio, total stockholders’ equity and tangible common equity, as applicable.
Management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance and believes these presentations provide useful supplemental information, and enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s core business and performance without the impact of merger-related expenses. Accordingly, management believes it is appropriate to exclude merger-related expenses because those costs are specific to each acquisition, vary based upon the size, complexity and other specifics of each acquisition, and are not indicative of the costs to operate the Company’s core business.
Non-GAAP measures are also useful in understanding performance trends and facilitate comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. The limitations associated with operating measures are the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. The Company provides reconciliations between GAAP and these Non-GAAP measures. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
