Fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) net interest income for the 2023 second quarter increased $90 million, or 7%, from the 2022 second quarter. The results primarily reflect a $13.7 billion, or 8%, increase in average earning assets, partially offset by a 4 basis point decrease in the net interest margin (NIM) to 3.11% and increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. The growth in average earning assets was primarily driven by higher cash balances and an increase in average loans and leases. The NIM compression was primarily driven by higher cost of funds and a 14 basis point impact from higher cash balances, partially offset by the higher rate environment driving an increase in loan and lease and investment security yields. Net interest income in the 2023 second quarter included $8 million of net interest income from purchase accounting accretion, compared to $16 million in the 2022 second quarter.
Compared to the 2023 first quarter, FTE net interest income decreased $61 million, or 4%, reflecting a 29 basis point decrease in NIM and higher average interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by higher average earnings assets. The NIM decrease was driven by higher cost of funds and an 8 basis point impact from higher cash balances, partially offset by higher loan and lease and investment security yields. Net interest income in the 2023 first quarter included $10 million of net interest income from purchase accounting accretion.

(1)During the 2023 second quarter, Huntington revised its process for assessing and monitoring the risk and performance of non-real estate secured commercial loans, primarily loans to REITs. These loans were reclassified from commercial real estate to the commercial and industrial loan category to align reporting with this process revision. All prior period results have been adjusted to conform to the current presentation.

Average earning assets for the 2023 second quarter increased $13.7 billion, or 8%, from the year-ago quarter, primarily reflecting a $7.5 billion, or 213%, increase in deposits at Federal Reserve Bank and a $7.4 billion, or 6%, increase in average total loans and leases, partially offset by a $826 million, or 2%, decrease in average securities. Average loan and lease balance increases were led by growth in average commercial loans and leases of $5.8 billion, or 9%, primarily driven by a $5.4 billion, or 12% increase in average commercial and industrial loans. Also, average consumer loans increased $1.6 billion, or 3%.

Compared to the 2023 first quarter, average earning assets increased $5.8 billion primarily reflecting a $5.0 billion, or 81%, increase in deposits at Federal Reserve Bank and a $925 million, or 1%, increase in average total loans and leases. Average loan and lease balance increases were primarily due to higher average commercial loans and leases of $772 million, or 1%, reflecting modest growth aligned with our optimization of loan growth focused on highest returns.

Average total interest-bearing liabilities for the 2023 second quarter increased $20.7 billion, or 19%, from the year-ago quarter. Average total debt increased $12.4 billion, or 135%, driven by higher long and short-term Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings and new debt issuances reflecting actions taken as part of normal management of funding needs. Average total deposits increased $551 million, while average total core deposits decreased $1.1 billion, or 1%. The average total core deposit decrease was driven by lower average commercial core deposits of $2.6 billion, or 4%, partially offset by higher average consumer deposits of $1.6 billion, or 2%.
Compared to the 2023 first quarter, average total interest-bearing liabilities increased $8.4 billion, or 7%. Average total debt increased $6.1 billion, or 39%, driven by higher long and short-term FHLB borrowings reflecting management of funding needs. Average total deposits decreased $585 million, and average total core deposits decreased $341 million. The average total core deposit decrease was primarily driven by lower average commercial core deposits of $2.1 billion, or 3%, partially offset by higher average consumer core deposits of $1.8 billion, or 2%.

Ending total deposits as of June 30, 2023 increased $2.6 billion, or 2%, compared to a year-ago. The increase was driven by a $3.5 billion, or 5%, increase in core consumer deposits and a $1.2 billion, or 31%, increase in other deposits, partially offset by a $2.2 billion, or 3%, decrease in core commercial deposits.
Compared to March 31, 2023, ending total deposits increased $2.7 billion, or 2%. The increase was driven by a $2.1 billion, or 3%, increase in consumer core deposits, $318 million, or 1%, increase in commercial core deposits and a $300 million increase in other deposits.

Reported total noninterest income for the 2023 second quarter increased $10 million, or 2%, from the year-ago quarter primarily reflecting higher other noninterest income driven by an $18 million increase from favorable mark-to-market on pay-fixed swaptions. Additional increases include, higher card and payments processing of $6 million, or 6%, an increase in bank owned life insurance of $5 million, or 45%, and an increase in trust and investment management services of $5 million, or 8%. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts of $18 million, or 17%, primarily reflecting the impact from deposit pricing and program changes. Also, mortgage banking income decreased $11 million, or 25%, primarily reflecting lower net MSR risk management.
Total noninterest income decreased $17 million, or 3%, to $495 million for the 2023 second quarter, compared to $512 million for the 2023 first quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by the $57 million gain associated with the sale of the RPS business recognized in the 2023 first quarter. Partially offsetting this decrease was a $19 million increase from favorable mark-to-market on pay-fixed swaptions. Card and payment processing increased $9 million, or 10%, primarily driven by higher debit card usage. Mortgage banking income increased $7 million, or 27%, due to increases in origination volume, partially offset by lower saleable spreads. Trust and investment management services increased $6 million, or 10%.

Reported total noninterest expense for the 2023 second quarter increased $32 million, or 3%, from the year-ago quarter. Excluding the impact from Notable Items, noninterest expense increased $56 million, or 6%, primarily driven by higher personnel costs of $38 million, or 7%, due to the full quarter impact of the Capstone acquisition and merit, higher marketing of $8 million, or 33%, reflecting actions taken to deepen and acquire new customer relationships, and higher outside data processing and other services of $7 million, or 5%, driven by higher technology investments.
Reported total noninterest expense decreased $36 million, or 3%, from the 2023 first quarter.

Nonperforming assets (NPAs) were $557 million, or 0.46%, of total loans and leases, OREO and other NPAs, compared to $682 million, or 0.59%, a year-ago. Nonaccrual loans and leases (NALs) were $510 million, or 0.42% of total loans and leases, compared to $657 million, or 0.57% of total loans and leases, a year-ago. On a linked quarter basis, NPAs decreased $21 million, or 4%, and NALs decreased $23 million, or 4%.
The provision for credit losses increased $25 million year-over-year and increased $7 million quarter-over-quarter to $92 million in the 2023 second quarter. Net charge-offs (NCOs) increased $41 million year-over-year and decreased $8 million quarter-over-quarter to $49 million. NCOs represented an annualized 0.16% of average loans and leases in the current quarter, up from 0.03% in the year-ago quarter and down from 0.19% in the prior quarter. The increase in NCOs year-over-year reflects the continued normalization of net charge-offs. Commercial and consumer net charge-offs remained low at 0.16% and 0.17%, respectively, for the 2023 second quarter.
The allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL) increased $103 million from the year-ago quarter to $2.2 billion, or 1.80%, and allowance for credit losses (ACL) increased by $174 million from the year-ago quarter to $2.3 billion, or 1.93% of total loans and leases, primarily driven by loan and lease growth but also reflective of near-term recessionary risks. On a linked quarter basis, the ACL increased $43 million, resulting in the ACL coverage ratio increasing 3 basis points, to 1.93%.

(1)June 30, 2023 figures are estimated. Amounts are presented on a Basel III standardized approach basis for calculating risk-weighted assets. The capital ratios reflect Huntington’s 2020 election of a five-year transition to delay for two years the full impact of CECL on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period. As of March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, 50% of the cumulative CECL deferral has been phased in. As of June 30, 2022, September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022, 25% of the cumulative CECL deferral has been phased in.
See Page 16 of Quarterly Financial Supplement for additional detail.

The tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 5.80% at June 30, 2023, up 3 basis points from last quarter due primarily to current period earnings. Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) risk-based capital ratio was 9.82%, up from 9.55% from the prior quarter. The increase in regulatory capital ratios was primarily driven by current period earnings.

Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $134 million in the 2023 second quarter compared to $144 million in the 2023 first quarter. The effective tax rate for the 2023 second quarter and 2023 first quarter were 19.3% and 19.2%, respectively. The variance to the linked quarter effective tax rate relates primarily to a reduction in capital losses, offset by an increase in tax credits and the impact of stock-based compensation.
At June 30, 2023, we had a net federal deferred tax asset of $383 million and a net state deferred tax asset of $87 million.

Basis of Presentation

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This document contains GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP financial measures where management believes it to be helpful in understanding Huntington’s results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in this document, the financial supplement, conference call slides, or the Form 8-K related to this document, all of which can be found in the Investor Relations section of Huntington’s website, http://www.huntington.com.

Annualized Data
Certain returns, yields, performance ratios, or quarterly growth rates are presented on an “annualized” basis. This is done for analytical and decision-making purposes to better discern underlying performance trends when compared to full-year or year-over-year amounts. For example, loan and deposit growth rates, as well as net charge-off percentages, are most often expressed in terms of an annual rate like 8%. As such, a 2% growth rate for a quarter would represent an annualized 8% growth rate.

Fully-Taxable Equivalent Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Income from tax-exempt earning assets is increased by an amount equivalent to the taxes that would have been paid if this income had been taxable at statutory rates. This adjustment puts all earning assets, most notably tax-exempt municipal securities, and certain lease assets, on a common basis that facilitates comparison of results to results of competitors.

Rounding
Please note that columns of data in this document may not add due to rounding.

Notable Items
From time to time, revenue, expenses, or taxes are impacted by items judged by management to be outside of ordinary banking activities and/or by items that, while they may be associated with ordinary banking activities, are so unusually large that their outsized impact is believed by management at that time to be infrequent or short term in nature. We refer to such items as “Notable Items.” Management believes it is useful to consider certain financial metrics with and without Notable Items, in order to enable a better understanding of company results, increase comparability of period-to-period results, and to evaluate and forecast those results.
