Transcript signals

Bull points

  • For the quarter, we reported net income of $57.4 million and a diluted EPS of $1.30, decreases of $3.5 million and $0.09 per share as compared to the linked quarter.
  • And despite two fewer days this quarter, NII grew by $5.6 million.
  • average non-interest-bearing deposits are up by $84 million.

Bear points

  • Non-interest income was $41.3 million during the quarter compared to $44.3 million during the linked quarter.
  • This decline was primarily caused by lower loan and deposit fee income, as well as a dip in earnings within our wealth management division due to less than favorable market conditions.
  • The first quarter tends to be the highest expense quarter of the year, and as discussed earlier, this quarter included a seasonal payroll tax and benefit charge of $2.8 million and a non-recurring charge related to the accelerated investing or restricted stock awards of $3.5 million.
