Net charge-offs for the portfolios in a run-off status represented the majority of total net charge-offs for the third quarter.
    • Nonperforming assets to total assets were 0.18% at September 30, 2023, compared to 0.17% at June 30, 2023 and 0.19% at September 30, 2022.

    • Salaries and benefits increased 5.2% from the prior quarter driven by the Salisbury acquisition and increased from the third quarter of 2022 due to the Salisbury acquisition and merit increases.
    • Amortization of intangible assets increased $1.2 million from the prior quarter and $1.1 million from the third quarter of 2022 primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets related to the Salisbury acquisition. The Company recorded a core deposit intangible of $31.2 million and a wealth management customer list intangible of $4.7 million for Salisbury.
    • FDIC assessment expense increased $0.3 million in the prior quarter primarily due to the acquisition of Salisbury and increased $0.9 million from the third quarter of 2022 driven by the statutory increase in the FDIC assessment rate.
