DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Overview
Assets
At June 30, 2022, total assets were $19.7 billion, a decrease of $403.0 million or approximately 4.1% (annualized) from $20.1 billion at December 31, 2021. The decrease in total assets was driven by the investment securities portfolio decrease of $366.4 million mainly due to the decline in the AFS portfolio’s fair value, reflecting the impact of market interest rate increases, partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $561.1 million, which was deployed primarily to fund loans which increased by $460.0 million from December 31, 2021, but also reflects the impact of net deposit outflows.
LHFI (net of deferred fees and costs) were $13.7 billion, including $21.7 million in PPP loans, at June 30, 2022, an increase of $460.0 million or 7.0% (annualized) from December 31, 2021. Excluding the effects of the PPP(+), LHFI (net of deferred fees and costs) at June 30, 2022 increased $588.2 million or 9.1% (annualized) from December 31, 2021. At June 30, 2022, quarterly average loans decreased $446.4 million or 3.2% from the same period in the prior year. Excluding the effects of the PPP(+), the adjusted quarterly average loan balance at June 30, 2022 increased $697.8 million or 5.5% from June 30, 2021.
