Annualized ROA was 1.21% for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, compared to 1.66% for the same period in 2018.
The annualized average cost of deposits was 0.37% for the quarters ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Average interest-bearing deposits decreased 2.59% between the quarters ended December 31, 2018 and 2019 to an average balance of $497,675,000.
Net interest income after the provision for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2019 totaled $36,794,000, an increase of $1,118,000, or 3.13%, from $35,676,000 for the same period ended December 31, 2018. Included within the balance of net interest income after the provision for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2018 was a $1,710,000 recovery of provision. The recovery of provision was due to one-time recoveries on previously charged-off loans. The Company's net interest margin decreased from 4.28% for the year ended December 31, 2018 to 4.22% for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease was the result of increases in yields and balances of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by increases in loan and investment yields. The yield on loans increased from 5.57% for the year ended December 31, 2018 to 5.91% for the year ended December 31, 2019. The yield on loans for the year ended December 31, 2018 includes $550,000 in write-downs of unamortized insurance premiums on the student loan portfolio, which was a result of the dissolution of the insurance carrier. The increase in net interest income on a year-over-year comparison is the result of higher interest rates on loans and growth in the investment balances, partially offset by increasing costs of deposits. Net interest income after the provision for credit losses for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 totaled $8,691,000, a decrease of $319,000, or 3.54%, from the net interest income of $9,010,000 for the same period ended December 31, 2018.
Non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2019 totaled $5,754,000, reflecting an increase of $1,149,000 from the $4,605,000 in non-interest income reported for the year ended December 31, 2018. Customer service fees, which represent the largest portion of the Company's non-interest income, totaled $3,257,000 and $3,544,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. On a year-over-year comparative basis, non-interest income increased primarily due to a $1,165,000 gain on the fair value of junior subordinated debentures (TRUPs) for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to a $424,000 loss for the same period ended December 31, 2018. The change in the fair value of TRUPs reflected in non-interest income was caused by fluctuations in the LIBOR yield curve. Non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2019 also includes a $115,000 loss resulting from the dissolution of the USB Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) which was completed in February 2019. Non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2018 includes a $171,000 gain recorded on the death benefit proceeds of bank-owned life insurance.
Non-interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 totaled $647,000, reflecting a decrease of $1,018,000 from the $1,665,000 in non-interest income reported for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. The decrease during the period was primarily due to the recording of a $407,000 loss on the fair value of TRUPs for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, as compared to a $499,000 gain for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. The change in the fair value of TRUPs reflected in non-interest income was primarily caused by fluctuations in the LIBOR yield curve. Customer service fees totaled $778,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, as compared to $757,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2018.
For the year ended December 31, 2019, non-interest expense totaled $21,279,000, an increase of $347,000 compared to $20,932,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018. On a year-over-year comparative basis, non-interest expense increased primarily due to increases of $698,000 in professional fees, $169,000 in data processing, and $99,000 in expenses related to other real estate owned, partially offset by decreases of $612,000 in salaries and employee benefits, and $166,000 in regulatory assessments. The increase in professional fees is mainly attributed to an increase in legal fees. The increase in data processing is primarily due to additional service fees. The decrease in salary and employee benefits is attributed to lower equity award expense. The decrease in regulatory assessments is related to one-time FDIC assessment credits. Non-interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2018 includes a $121,000 recovery of workman's compensation insurance expense.
Non-interest expense totaled $5,335,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of $138,000 as compared to $5,473,000 reported for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. On a quarter-over-quarter comparative basis, non-interest expense decreased primarily due to decreases in salary and employee benefits as a result of lower equity award expenses and decreases in regulatory assessments. The decrease in regulatory assessments is attributed to FDIC assessment credits.
The Company recorded an income tax provision of $6,097,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $5,332,000 for the same period in 2018. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2019 was 28.67%, compared to 27.56% for the year ended December 31, 2018. For the quarter ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded a tax provision of $1,108,000, compared to a provision of $1,254,000 for the same period in 2018.
Provided at the end of this Press Release is a reconciliation of Core Net Income, as a non-GAAP measure, to Net Income. This reconciliation excludes Non-Core items such as the Fair Value Adjustment for TRUPs, recovery of provision for credit losses, and gain on sale of other real estate owned (OREO). Management believes that financial results are more comparative excluding the impact of such non-core items.
Balance Sheet Review
Total assets increased $23,861,000, or 2.56%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, due primarily to increases of $10,003,000 in investment securities and $9,441,000 in gross loan balances.

At December 31, 2019, the balances of the operating lease right-of-use asset and liability were $3,360,000 and $3,463,000, respectively.
Total deposits increased $12,719,000, or 1.58%, to $818,362,000 during the year ended December 31, 2019. This increase was due to an increase of $19,230,000 in noninterest bearing deposits and $20,489,000 in NOW and money market accounts, partially offset by a decrease of $17,032,000 in time deposits and $9,968,000 in savings accounts. In total, NOW, money market and savings accounts increased 2.44% to $441,012,000 at December 31, 2019, compared to $430,491,000 at December 31, 2018.

The increase in equity was the result of net earnings for the period, partially offset by cash dividends. At December 31, 2019 there was accumulated other comprehensive loss of $632,000, as compared to accumulated other comprehensive income of $674,000 at December 31, 2018. The change from December 31, 2018 to December 31, 2019 was the result of unrealized losses on junior subordinated debentures (TRUPs) caused by a decrease in yields during the period.

| (2) | A reversal of provision for credit losses is not part of Non-GAAP Core Income. This reversal from the allowance for credit losses was in excess of the calculated reserve for the period. The recovery of provision for credit losses of $1,764,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018, within the Consolidated Statements of Income, includes this reversal of provision for credit losses of $1,615,000 and a provision for overdrafts of $149,000. For the year ended December 31, 2019, there was no reversal from the allowance for credit losses in excess of the calculated reserve for the period. The provision for credit losses of $20,000, as reported within the Consolidated Statements of Income, represents the provision for overdrafts. |
