38.5 million in the aggregate. Through April 21, 2025, repurchases of Company common stock totaled 11,494,637 shares at a weighted average price per share of $13.05, or $150.0 million in the aggregate. On April 23, 2025, the Company announced an upsize of its stock repurchase program from $150.0 million to $300.0 million and expanded the program to cover both the Company's common stock and depositary shares representing its preferred stock. 

The repurchase authorization expires in March 2026. Purchases may be made in open-market transactions, in block transactions on or off an exchange, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means as determined by our management and in accordance with the regulations of the SEC. The timing of purchases and the number of shares repurchased under the program will depend on a variety of factors including price, trading volume, corporate and regulatory requirements, and market conditions. The program may be changed, suspended, or discontinued at any time.

Key Performance Indicators 

Among other factors, our operating results generally depend on the following key performance indicators:

The Level of Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the excess of interest earned on our interest-earning assets over the interest paid on our interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is net interest income (annualized if related to a quarterly period) expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.

Net interest income is affected by changes in both interest rates and the volume of average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Our primary interest-earning assets are loans and investment securities, and our primary interest-bearing liabilities are deposits and borrowings. While our deposit balances will fluctuate depending on our customers’ liquidity and cash flow, market conditions, and competitive pressures, we seek to minimize the impact of these variances by attracting a high percentage of noninterest-bearing deposits. We continue to focus on growing granular relationship-based deposits as a key component of our core deposit strategy, which supports a stable funding base and strengthens our client franchise.

Loan and Lease Production

We actively seek new lending opportunities under an array of lending products. Our lending activities include real estate mortgage loans, real estate construction and land loans, commercial loans and leases, and a small amount of consumer lending. Our commercial real estate loans and real estate construction loans are secured by a range of property types. Our commercial loans and leases portfolio is diverse and generally includes various asset-secured loans, lender finance loans, equipment-secured loans and
