6 billion, or 102%, to account for the seasonality of deposits and fund loan growth, and average other long-term funding decreased $35.0 million, or 6%, in the second quarter of 2025 due to a portion of the subordinated notes maturing and being repaid in January 2025.

The provision for credit losses was $18.0 million for the second quarter of 2025 and $13.0 million for the first quarter of 2025. This was due to increases in the commercial and business lending, CRE construction and other consumer categories partially offset by decreases in commercial real estate - investor and residential mortgages. The increase in commercial was largely attributable to loan growth and nominal movements within risk rating categories during the quarter. See discussion under sections: Provision for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans.

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2025 was $67.0 million, compared to $58.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, the increase was due to the loss on mortgage portfolio sale as a result of the settlement of the mortgage sale in January 2025 as part of the balance sheet repositioning announced in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2025 was $209.4 million, down $1.3 million, or 1%, from the first quarter of 2025, driven primarily by a decrease in occupancy expense and a reduction in OREO expenses (included within other noninterest expense), partially offset by an increase in personnel expense.

For the second quarter of 2025, the Corporation recognized income tax expense of $28.4 million, compared to an income tax expense of $19.4 million for the first quarter of 2025.  The increase is mainly because of the release of a portion of the valuation allowance on deferred taxes in the first quarter.
