Second - quarter results reflected continued strong loan growth , stable underlying net interest margin performance and increased mortgage banking revenue . These positive developments were offset primarily by provision expense associated with loan growth , premium acceleration within the purchased automobile loan portfolio and increased compensation - related expenses , including investments in additional commercial lending personnel to support the Bank's Annapolis expansion . " We continued to generate meaningful loan growth during the second quarter while maintaining stable asset quality and liquidity , " said Mark C. Hanna , President and Chief Executive Officer . " Although reported earnings were affected by provision expense required to support that growth and by premium acceleration within our purchased automobile loan portfolio , yields across the remainder of the loan portfolio remained stable and core net interest margin improved modestly . We also made a significant investment in a Loan Production Office in the Annapolis market , adding two commercial lenders , and saw increased activity from VA Wholesale Mortgage . Our focus remains on converting recent balance - sheet growth into sustainable earnings while maintaining disciplined funding , expense and capital management .
