Income Statement
Net interest income totaled $550.3 million in the second quarter 2023, a decrease of $59.6 million, or 9.8%, from $609.9 million in the first quarter 2023, and an increase of $25.3 million, or 4.8%, compared to the second quarter 2022. The decrease in net interest income from the first quarter 2023 is due to an increase in average short-term borrowings, combined with higher interest rates and was partially offset by higher yields on loans. The increase in net interest income from the second quarter 2022 was driven by higher yields on HFI loans, partially offset by an increase in both the balances and rates of borrowings and deposits.
The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $21.8 million in the second quarter 2023, an increase of $2.4 million from $19.4 million in the first quarter 2023, and a decrease of $5.7 million from $27.5 million in the second quarter 2022. The increase in provision for credit losses during the second quarter 2023 is primarily due to heightened economic uncertainty, particularly in the commercial real estate market.
The Company’s net interest margin in the second quarter 2023 was 3.42%, a decrease from 3.79% in the first quarter 2023, and a decrease from 3.54% in the second quarter 2022. An increase in short-term borrowings and higher rates on these borrowings and on deposits drove a decrease in net interest margin from the first quarter 2023, with higher yields on loans partially offsetting this decrease. The decrease in net interest margin from the second quarter 2022 was driven by higher average balances and rates on deposits and borrowings.
Non-interest income was $119.0 million for the second quarter 2023, compared to $(58.0) million for the first quarter 2023, and $95.0 million for the second quarter 2022. Non-interest income for the first quarter 2023 was impacted by significant non-operating losses that were incurred in response to actions undertaken by the Company to reposition its balance sheet in light of the disruption in the banking industry caused by recent bank failures. After adjusting for losses on security sales and fair value adjustments primarily related to the transfer of $6.0 billion of held for investment loans to held for sale to further strengthen the Company's capital and liquidity position, adjusted non-interest income1 was $102.3 million for the first quarter 2023. Total non-operating items for the second quarter 2023 were not significant as losses on security sales of $13.6 million were offset by fair value gain adjustments of $12.7 million. Also contributing to the increase in non-interest income for the quarter was an increase of $30.9 million in net gain on loan origination and sale activities from higher spreads and volume, partially offset by a $17.8 million decrease in net loan servicing revenue due to losses on MSR hedges and lower servicing income. The $24.0 million increase in non-interest income from the second quarter 2022 was driven by a higher net gain on loan origination and sale activities and gains on fair value adjustments compared to a loss in the second quarter of 2022, partially offset by lower net loan servicing revenue and losses from sales of investment securities.

Net revenue totaled $669.3 million for the second quarter 2023, compared to $551.9 million and $620.0 million for the first quarter 2023 and second quarter 2022, respectively. After adjusting for losses on security sales and fair value adjustments, adjusted net revenue1 was $670.2 million for the second quarter 2023, a decrease of $42.0 million, compared to $712.2 million for the first quarter 2023, and an increase of $40.0 million, or 6.3%, compared to $630.2 million for the second quarter 2022. 
Non-interest expense was $387.4 million for the second quarter 2023, compared to $347.9 million for the first quarter 2023, and $268.9 million for the second quarter 2022. After adjusting first quarter 2023 non-interest expense for a net gain on extinguishment of debt from payoff of credit linked notes of $12.7 million, adjusted non-interest expense1 was $360.6 million. The increase in non-interest expense from the first quarter 2023 is due primarily to higher insurance costs related to elevated insured and brokered deposit levels. The increase in non-interest expense from the second quarter 2022 is attributable to an increase in deposit and insurance costs. The Company’s adjusted efficiency ratio1 was 50.5% for the second quarter 2023, compared to 43.2% in the first quarter 2023, and 40.4% for the second quarter 2022.
Income tax expense was $44.4 million for the second quarter 2023, compared to $42.4 million for the first quarter 2023, and $63.4 million for the second quarter 2022.
Net income was $215.7 million for the second quarter 2023, an increase of $73.5 million from $142.2 million for the first quarter 2023, and a decrease of $44.5 million from $260.2 million for the second quarter 2022. Earnings per share totaled $1.96 for the second quarter 2023, compared to $1.28 for the first quarter 2023, and $2.39 for the second quarter 2022. After adjusting for the non-operating items noted above, adjusted earnings per share totaled $2.30 for the first quarter 2023.
The Company views its pre-provision net revenue1 ("PPNR") as a key metric for assessing the Company’s earnings power, which it defines as adjusted net revenue1 less adjusted non-interest expense1. For the second quarter 2023, the Company’s PPNR1 was $282.1 million, down $69.5 million from $351.6 million in the first quarter 2023, and down $79.2 million from $361.3 million in the second quarter 2022.
The Company had 3,336 full-time equivalent employees and 56 offices at June 30, 2023, compared to 3,340 employees and 57 offices at March 31, 2023, and 3,254 employees and 60 offices at June 30, 2022.

Balance Sheet
HFI loans, net of deferred fees totaled $47.9 billion at June 30, 2023, compared to $46.4 billion at March 31, 2023, and $48.6 billion at June 30, 2022. The increase in HFI loans of $1.4 billion from the prior quarter was driven by an increase of $1.2 billion in commercial and industrial and $296 million in CRE non-owner occupied loans, with approximately half of this increase attributable to loan transfers from HFS to HFI. The decrease in HFI loans of $697 million from June 30, 2022 was driven by a $4.1 billion decrease in commercial and industrial loans, resulting from the transfer of a significant portion of HFI loans to HFS in the first quarter 2023 as part of the Company's balance sheet repositioning strategy. This decrease was partially offset by increases in CRE non-owner occupied and construction and land development loans of $2.1 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively. HFS loans totaled $3.2 billion at June 30, 2023, compared to $7.0 billion at March 31, 2023, and $2.8 billion at June 30, 2022. The decrease of $3.9 billion in HFS loans from the prior quarter is primarily related to execution of the Company's balance sheet repositioning strategy, with loan dispositions totaling $3.5 billion during the quarter. The increase of $353 million in HFS loans from June 30, 2022 relates to loans transferred to HFS during the first quarter 2023, partially offset by a decrease in AmeriHome HFS loans.
The Company's allowance for credit losses on HFI loans consists of an allowance for funded HFI loans and an allowance for unfunded loan commitments. At June 30, 2023, the allowance for loan losses to funded HFI loans ratio was 0.67%, compared to 0.66% at March 31, 2023, and 0.56% at June 30, 2022. The allowance for credit losses, which includes the allowance for unfunded loan commitments, to funded HFI loans ratio was 0.76% at June 30, 2023, compared to 0.75% at March 31, 2023, and 0.67% at June 30, 2022. The Company is a party to credit linked note transactions, which effectively transfer a portion of the risk of losses on reference pools of loans to the purchasers of the notes. The Company is protected from first credit losses on reference pools of loans totaling $9.4 billion, $9.8 billion, and $11.1 billion as of June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2022, respectively, under these transactions. However, as these note transactions are considered to be free standing credit enhancements, the allowance for credit losses cannot be reduced by the expected credit losses that may be mitigated by these notes. Accordingly, the allowance for loan and credit losses ratios include an allowance of $21.4 million as of June 30, 2023, $20.8 million as of March 31, 2023, and $18.5 million as of June 30, 2022, related to these pools of loans. The allowance for credit losses to funded HFI loans ratio, adjusted to reduce the HFI loan balance by the amount of loans in covered reference pools, was 0.94% at June 30, 2023, 0.95% at March 31, 2023, and 0.87% at June 30, 2022.
Deposits totaled $51.0 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $3.5 billion from $47.6 billion at March 31, 2023, and a decrease of $2.7 billion from $53.7 billion at June 30, 2022. By deposit type, the increase from the prior quarter is attributable to increases of $2.0 billion from certificates of deposits, $1.9 billion from interest bearing demand deposits, and $268 million from non-interest bearing demand deposits, partially offset by a $760 million decrease in savings and money market accounts. From June 30, 2022, non-interest bearing demand deposits and savings and money market accounts decreased $7.0 billion and $5.9 billion, respectively. These decreases were partially offset by increases in certificates of deposit and interest-bearing demand deposits of $6.0 billion and $4.3 billion, respectively. Non-interest bearing deposits were $16.7 billion at June 30, 2023, compared to $16.5 billion at March 31, 2023, and $23.7 billion at June 30, 2022.
The table below shows the Company's deposit types as a percentage of total deposits:
Jun 30, 2023Mar 31, 2023Jun 30, 2022
Non-interest bearing32.8 %34.6 %44.2 %
Savings and money market25.6 29.1 35.4 
Interest-bearing demand24.8 22.5 15.6 
Certificates of deposit16.8 13.8 4.8 
The Company’s ratio of HFI loans to deposits was 93.8% at June 30, 2023, compared to 97.6% at March 31, 2023, and 90.4% at June 30, 2022.
Borrowings were $9.6 billion at June 30, 2023, $15.9 billion at March 31, 2023, and $5.2 billion at June 30, 2022. Borrowings decreased from March 31, 2023 due primarily to a decrease in short-term borrowings of $6.0 billion and payoffs of credit linked notes of $266 million. The increase in borrowings from June 30, 2022 is due to an increase in short-term borrowings of $3.8 billion, partially offset by payoffs of credit linked notes in the first half of 2023.
Qualifying debt totaled $888 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $895 million at March 31, 2023, and $891 million at June 30, 2022.
Stockholders’ equity was $5.7 billion at June 30, 2023, compared to $5.5 billion at March 31, 2023 and $5.0 billion at June 30, 2022. The increase in stockholders’ equity quarter over quarter was due to net income, partially offset by dividends to shareholders and unrealized fair value losses of $24 million on the Company's available for sale securities, which are recorded in other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Cash dividends of $39.4 million ($0.36 per common share) and $3.2 million ($0.27 per depository share) were paid to shareholders during the second quarter 2023. The increase in stockholders' equity from June 30, 2022 is primarily a function of net income and sales of common stock under the Company's ATM program, partially offset by dividends to shareholders and an increase in unrealized fair value losses on available for sale securities.
At June 30, 2023, tangible common equity, net of tax1, was 7.0% of tangible assets1 and total capital was 13.0% of risk-weighted assets. The Company’s tangible book value per share1 was $43.09 at June 30, 2023, an increase of 3.7% from $41.56 at March 31, 2023, and up 17.5% from $36.67 at June 30, 2022. The increase in tangible book value per share from March 31, 2023 is attributable to net income.
Total assets decreased 4.1% to $68.2 billion at June 30, 2023, from $71.0 billion at March 31, 2023, and increased 3.2% from $66.1 billion at June 30, 2022. The decrease in total assets from March 31, 2023 was driven by a decrease in HFS loans and cash, partially offset by an increase in HFI loans. The increase in total assets from June 30, 2022 was driven by an increase in investments and HFS loans, partially offset by a decrease in HFI loans.
