| | flows expected to be collected from the FDIC-covered loan portfolios and $459,000 of amortization of the clawback liability. Partially offsetting the expense was income from the accretion of the discount related to the indemnification assets for the Sun Security Bank and InterBank acquisitions of $357,000. |
| · | Other income: Other income increased $704,000 compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to a $671,000 net gain on the sale of fixed assets from the sale of a banking center building in Nebraska. Currently, this banking center is still operating under a lease agreement. The Company plans to build a replacement banking center. |
| · | Late charges and fees on loans: Late charges and fees on loans increased $497,000 compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to yield maintenance payments received on 11 commercial loan prepayments, totaling $487,000. |
| · | Gains on sales of single-family loans: Gains on sales of single-family loans increased $451,000 compared to the prior year quarter. This increase was due to an increase in originations of fixed-rate loans in the 2015 period. Fixed rate single-family loans originated are subsequently sold in the secondary market. |
| · | Service charges and ATM fees: Service charges and ATM fees increased $298,000 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to an increase in fee income from the additional accounts acquired in the Valley Bank transaction in June 2014. |
| · | Net realized gains on sales of available-for-sale securities: Gains on sales of available-for-sale securities decreased $569,000 compared to the prior year quarter. This was due to the sale of all of the Company's Small Business Administration securities in June 2014, which produced a gain of $569,000. There were no securities sold in the 2015 quarter. |
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, non-interest income decreased $8.2 million to $3.4 million when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily as a result of the following increases and decreases:
| · | Initial gain recognized on business acquisition: In the 2014 period, the Company recognized a preliminary one-time gain of $10.8 million (pre-tax) on the FDIC-assisted acquisition of Valley Bank, which occurred on June 20, 2014. |
Excluding the gain referenced above, non-interest income increased $2.6 million when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily as a result of the following items:
| · | Amortization of income related to business acquisitions: The net amortization expense related to business acquisitions was $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015, consisted of the following items: $11.1 million of amortization expense related to the changes in cash flows expected to be collected from the FDIC-covered loan portfolios and $945,000 of amortization of the clawback liability. In addition, the Company collected amounts on various problem assets acquired from the FDIC totaling $891,000. Under the loss sharing agreements, 80% of these collected amounts must be remitted to the FDIC; therefore, the Company recorded a liability and related expense of $713,000. Partially offsetting the expense was income from the accretion of the discount related to the indemnification assets for the Sun Security Bank and InterBank acquisitions of $853,000. |
| · | Gains on sales of single-family loans: Gains on sales of single-family loans increased $842,000 compared to the prior year period. This increase was due to an increase in originations of fixed-rate loans in the 2015 period. Fixed rate single-family loans originated are subsequently sold in the secondary market. |
| · | Service charges and ATM fees: Service charges and ATM fees increased $774,000 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in fee income from the additional accounts acquired in the Valley Bank transaction in June 2014. |
| · | Late charges and fees on loans: Late charges and fees on loans increased $531,000 compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to yield maintenance payments received on 12 commercial loan prepayments, totaling $547,000. |
| · | Net realized gains on sales of available-for-sale securities: Gains on sales of available-for-sale securities decreased $642,000 compared to the prior year period. This was due to the sale of all of the Company's Small Business Administration securities in June 2014, which produced a gain of $569,000, and other securities sold in the 2014 period. There were no securities sold in the 2015 period. |
| · | Other Income: Other income decreased $607,000 compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to non-recurring debit card-related income of $1.0 million recognized during the 2014 period, partially offset by a $671,000 net gain on the sale of fixed assets from the sale of a banking center building in Nebraska. |
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, non-interest expense decreased $6.5 million to $27.9 million when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2014, primarily as a result of the following items:
| · | Other Operating Expenses: Other operating expenses decreased $7.6 million, to $2.2 million, in the quarter ended June 30, 2015 compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to $7.4 million in prepayment penalties paid in June 2014 as the Company elected to repay $130 million of its FHLB advances and structured repo borrowings prior to their maturity. |
| · | Expense on foreclosed assets: Expense on foreclosed assets decreased $1.0 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the write-down of $940,000 of one foreclosed asset during the 2014 period. |
Partially offsetting the decrease in non-interest expense was an increase in the following items:
| · | Expenses related to operations of former Valley Bank: The Company incurred approximately $587,000 of additional non-interest expenses during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2014, in connection with the operations of former Valley Bank banking centers and related banking activities, acquired through the FDIC in June 2014. Total Valley Bank non-interest expenses related to operations were $1.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, compared to $610,000 of acquisition-related expenses in the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The additional expenses for the 2015 quarter included approximately $134,000 of compensation expense, approximately $244,000 of net occupancy expense and approximately $191,000 of computer and equipment expense. |
| · | Advertising: Advertising expense increased $312,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, when compared to the prior year quarter, due to additional marketing campaigns across the franchise in the current year period, including new markets, sponsorships in the Quad Cities market and the opening of the new banking center in Columbia, Mo. |
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, non-interest expense decreased $5.1 million to $55.2 million when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily as a result of the following items:
| · | Other Operating Expenses: Other operating expenses decreased $7.6 million, to $3.9 million, in the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the prior year period primarily due to $7.4 million in prepayment penalties paid in June 2014 as the Company elected to repay $130 million of its FHLB advances and structured repo borrowings prior to their maturity. |
| · | Expense on foreclosed assets: Expense on foreclosed assets decreased $1.5 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to write-downs of foreclosed assets during the 2014 period, including the write-down of $940,000 of one foreclosed asset during the 2014 period. |
Partially offsetting the decrease in non-interest expense was an increase in the following items:
| · | Expenses related to operations of former Valley Bank: The Company incurred approximately $1.9 million of additional non-interest expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014, in connection with the operations of former Valley Bank banking centers and related banking activities, which was acquired through the FDIC in June 2014. Total Valley Bank non-interest expenses related to operations were $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, |
| | 2015, compared to $610,000 of acquisition-related expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2014. Those additional expenses included approximately $606,000 of compensation expense, approximately $590,000 of net occupancy expense and approximately $477,000 of computer and equipment expense. |
The Company's efficiency ratio for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, was 61.47% compared to 67.98% for the same quarter in 2014. The efficiency ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2015, was 61.64% compared to 67.37% for the same period in 2014. The improvement in the ratio in the 2015 three and six month periods was primarily due to the increase in net interest income, which is discussed above, and the decrease in non-interest expense, partially offset by the decrease in non-interest income. The Company's ratio of non-interest expense to average assets decreased from 3.64% and 3.24% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, to 2.75% and 2.71% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The decrease in the current three and six month period ratios was primarily due to the increase in average assets in the 2015 period compared to the 2014 period, and the decrease in non-interest expense as discussed above. Average assets for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, increased $288.1 million, or 7.6%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2014, primarily due to the Valley Bank acquisition in June 2014, and organic loan growth, partially offset by decreases in investment securities and other interest-earning assets and FDIC indemnification assets. Average assets for the six months ended June 30, 2015, increased $348.8 million, or 9.4%, from the six months ended June 30, 2014, due to the same reasons noted for the three month period.
INCOME TAXES
For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company's effective tax rate was 26.0% and 25.0%, respectively, which was lower than the statutory federal tax rate of 35%, due primarily to the effects of certain investment tax credits utilized and to tax-exempt investments and tax-exempt loans which reduced the Company's effective tax rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company's effective tax rate was 25.5% and 23.7%, respectively, which was lower than the statutory federal tax rate of 35%, due primarily to the effects of certain investment tax credits utilized and to tax-exempt investments and tax-exempt loans which reduced the Company's effective tax rate. In future periods, the Company expects its effective tax rate typically will be 24-26% of pre-tax net income, assuming it continues to maintain or increase its use of investment tax credits. The Company's effective tax rate may fluctuate as it is impacted by the level and timing of the Company's utilization of tax credits and the level of tax-exempt investments and loans and the overall level of pretax income.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Management records a provision for loan losses in an amount it believes sufficient to result in an allowance for loan losses that will cover current net charge-offs as well as risks believed to be inherent in the loan portfolio of the Bank. The amount of provision charged against current income is based on several factors, including, but not limited to, past loss experience, current portfolio mix, actual and potential losses identified in the loan portfolio, economic conditions, and internal as well as external reviews. However, the levels of non-performing assets, potential problem loans, loan loss provisions and net charge-offs fluctuate from period to period and are difficult to predict.
Weak economic conditions, higher inflation or interest rates, or other factors may lead to increased losses in the portfolio and/or requirements for an increase in loan loss provision expense. Management maintains various controls in an attempt to limit future losses, such as a watch list of possible problem loans, documented loan administration policies and a loan review staff to review the quality and anticipated collectability of the portfolio. Additional procedures provide for frequent management review of the loan portfolio based on loan size, loan type, delinquencies, on-going correspondence with borrowers and problem loan work-outs. Management determines which loans are potentially uncollectible, or represent a greater risk of loss, and makes additional provisions to expense, if necessary, to maintain the allowance at a satisfactory level.
The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, decreased $162,000 to $1.3 million when compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2015, decreased $554,000 to $2.6 million when compared with the six months ended June 30, 2014. At June 30, 2015, the allowance for loan losses was $39.7 million, an increase of $1.3 million from December 31, 2014. Total net charge-offs were $673,000 and $1.6 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively. For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, one relationship made up $530,000 of the total $673,000 in net charge-offs. Total net charge-offs were $1.3 million and $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, three relationships made up $1.0 million of the total $1.3 million in net charge-offs. The increase in the allowance for loan losses in the three months ended June 30, 2015, was primarily due to loan growth. General market conditions, and more specifically, real estate absorption rates and unique circumstances related to individual borrowers and projects also contributed to the level of provisions and charge-offs. As properties were categorized as potential problem loans, non-performing loans or foreclosed assets, evaluations were made of the values of these assets with corresponding charge-offs as appropriate.
The Bank's allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans, excluding loans covered by the FDIC loss sharing agreements, was 1.29%, 1.34% and 1.31% at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2015, respectively. Management considers the allowance for loan losses adequate to cover losses inherent in the Company's loan portfolio at June 30, 2015, based on recent reviews of the Company's loan portfolio and current economic conditions. If economic conditions were to deteriorate or management's assessment of the loan portfolio were to change, it is possible that additional loan loss provisions would be required, thereby adversely affecting future results of operations and financial condition.
ASSET QUALITY
Former TeamBank, Vantus Bank, Sun Security Bank and InterBank non-performing assets, including foreclosed assets and potential problem loans, are not included in the totals or in the discussion of non-performing loans, potential problem loans and foreclosed assets below as they are, or were, subject to loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, which cover at least 80% of principal losses that may be incurred in these portfolios for the applicable terms under the agreements. At June 30, 2015, there were no material non-performing assets or potential problem loans that were previously covered, and are now not covered, under the TeamBank or Vantus Bank non-single-family loss sharing agreements. In addition, FDIC-supported TeamBank, Vantus Bank, Sun Security Bank and InterBank assets were initially recorded at their estimated fair values as of their acquisition dates of March 20, 2009, September 4, 2009, October 7, 2011, and April 27, 2012, respectively. The overall performance of the FDIC-covered loan pools acquired in 2009, 2011 and 2012 has been better than original expectations as of the acquisition dates. Former Valley Bank loans are also
excluded from the totals and the discussion of non-performing loans, potential problem loans and foreclosed assets below, although they are not covered by a loss sharing agreement. Former Valley Bank loans are accounted for in pools and were recorded at their fair value at the time of the acquisition as of June 20, 2014; therefore, these loan pools are analyzed rather than the individual loans.
The loss sharing agreement for the non-single-family portion of the loans acquired in the TeamBank transaction ended on March 31, 2014. Any additional losses in that non-single-family portfolio will not be eligible for loss sharing coverage. At this time, the Company does not expect any material losses in this non-single-family loan portfolio, which totaled $19.5 million, net of discounts, at June 30, 2015.
The loss sharing agreement for the non-single-family portion of the loans acquired in the Vantus Bank transaction ended on September 30, 2014. Any additional losses in that non-single-family portfolio will not be eligible for loss sharing coverage. At this time, the Company does not expect any material losses in this non-single-family loan portfolio, which totaled $19.0 million, net of discounts, at June 30, 2015.
As a result of changes in balances and composition of the loan portfolio, changes in economic and market conditions that occur from time to time and other factors specific to a borrower's circumstances, the level of non-performing assets will fluctuate.
Non-performing assets, excluding FDIC-covered non-performing assets and other FDIC-assisted acquired assets, at June 30, 2015, were $39.0 million, a decrease of $4.7 million from $43.7 million at December 31, 2014, and a decrease of $3.4 million from $42.4 million at March 31, 2015. Non-performing assets, excluding FDIC-covered non-performing assets and other FDIC-assisted acquired assets, as a percentage of total assets were 0.95% at June 30, 2015, compared to 1.11% at December 31, 2014 and 1.04% at March 31, 2015.
Compared to December 31, 2014, non-performing loans decreased $3.0 million to $5.1 million at June 30, 2015, and foreclosed assets decreased $1.7 million to $33.9 million at June 30, 2015. Compared to March 31, 2015, non-performing loans decreased $1.0 million to $5.1 million at June 30, 2015, and foreclosed assets decreased $2.4 million to $33.9 million at June 30, 2015. Non-performing commercial real estate loans comprised $2.7 million, or 52.3%, of the total of $5.1 million of non-performing loans at June 30, 2015, a decrease of $464,000 from March 31, 2015. Non-performing one-to four-family residential loans comprised $1.2 million, or 22.8%, of the total non-performing loans at June 30, 2015, a decrease of $301,000 from March 31, 2015. Non-performing consumer loans decreased $122,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2015, and were $992,000, or 19.4%, of total non-performing loans at June 30, 2015.
Compared to December 31, 2014, potential problem loans decreased $3.6 million to $21.4 million at June 30, 2015. Compared to March 31, 2015, potential problem loans decreased $2.1 million. This decrease was due to $1.3 million in loans removed from potential problem loans, $638,000 in payments, $544,000 in charge-offs and $157,000 transferred to foreclosed assets, partially offset by the addition of $484,000 of loans to potential problem loans.

BUSINESS INITIATIVES
The Company's first banking center in Columbia, Mo., opened on April 20, 2015. The full-service banking center is located at 3200 S. Providence Road. Columbia, the home of the University of Missouri, is a growing market and is a regional medical hub and home to several large corporations.
Renovation of the 20,000-square-foot office building in Overland Park, Kan., is well underway. This building will be the Company's Kansas City commercial and retail loan headquarters and will include a new retail banking center. The commercial lending group recently began operating from the new building and the retail banking center is expected to open by the end of September 2015. Additional space in the building is leased to tenants unrelated to the Company.
The Company is in the beginning stages of testing personal teller machines (PTMs). PTMs offer customers the benefit of utilizing either self-service solutions or personal interactions to fulfill their banking needs. It combines video collaboration and remote transaction processing technology embedded within the ATM to give customers the choice of self-service or connecting with a remote teller in a highly personalized, two-way audio/video interaction. In-branch and off-premise PTMs are being considered.
