| We're starting to see all of the balance sheet strategy that we laid out for you in the past getting some traction and having a positive impact on the NIM |
| We had a terrific quarter in the commercial segment |
| So we're -- pipelines in that segment remain very strong |
| We've seen good growth in what I would call our more traditional long-term markets, and we've seen nice growth in the newer markets that we have opened up over the last few years |
| So we're still happy about the pipeline that we have, especially in light of what a challenging first quarter, this was to be able to stand here in October and say that we have a good pipeline and that we've -- in the last three months, we've actually converted enough of it to produce DDA growth |
| We had actually a terrific quarter in small business lending |
| So very robust capital levels |
| I'm very happy about it |
| So we feel pretty good about the C&I business as a whole across all segments |
| The Florida market in all major metropolitan areas continues to perform very well |
| We also saw the decline in relatively higher priced wholesale funding having a positive impact on the NIM this quarter |
| So we feel pretty good about where we are from a Florida perspective |
| So I'm feeling pretty good about the way the quarter turned out |
| We feel pretty good about where the bank is and the progress that we've made in a very short period of time |
| So we feel good about that |
| Great news about the net interest margin up to 256 from 247 last quarter |
| The Palm Beach market is very strong |
| In this portfolio, and we're watching it closely, but we feel very good about the overall CRE portfolio |
| We talked about having a good level of confidence in a strong deposit pipeline |
| And we know we have strong debt service coverage ratios |
| So if you look at the Miami market, in particular, where we do not have any CBD exposure, but the Miami market is extremely strong right now |
| And it should be a good quarter again |
| There are some small openings here and there, but generally, our renewal conversations are going well because the performance of the properties is generally very good |
| Because like we've said, we're [Indiscernible] very heavy and taking it down about $200 million or so every quarter, sounds like a good strategy |
| And general trends are people who are in the office 3, 4 days a week and the properties are performing well |
| And liquidity remains robust as well |
| Tampa continues to show good strength, particularly in the suburban market area |
| So feeling pretty good looking forward |
| If I look at what grew for the quarter, we grew what I think is really kind of core parts of our business strategy, which was manufacturing, wholesale trade, logistics, international trade because of the markets that we're in, Healthcare had nice growth |
| But predominantly in the northern suburban office markets, all of those continue to perform very well |
| Statement |

| The franchise equipment, municipal finance business continued to trend down modestly and mortgage warehouse lending was down $116 million in response to what's happening in the residential mortgage market as a whole |
| The overall outlook for CRE is a little bit more challenging in the market today |
| If you look at where we started off the year, and market conditions remain challenging |
| And our commercial finance subs, which is the franchise finance and the equipment leasing business, has been running down now for a better part of 2 or 3 years, that trend will continue |
| The mortgage market is probably having one of the toughest years ever in terms of origination volume |
| Most of that reserve built was really because of the Moody's outlook got worse |
| Just for context, if you go back last quarter, we told you that, while our NIM had gone down from first quarter to second quarter |
| Which is well below the regulatory guidance threshold |
| Everybody wants part of the ancillary business, and that's a big challenge in the SNC market is there's not enough ancillary business to go around everybody |
| And hopefully, it's just a soft landing, but it may be a mild recession, and we have to be ready for it |
| And earnings this quarter were impacted by the reserve build that we took this quarter |
| Consistent with the strategy we've outlined for you, Resi declined by $225 million |
| Credit trends, quickly, net charge-offs, again, very low at 7 basis points |
| Overall, deposit loans came in down to 74% |
| So if you go back from January and look to now, Jan to Feb, Feb to March, March or April, NIM was declining |
| So Resi was down 2.25% |
| Now I will say this much, that if going into a recession or a slowdown, it's painful with all these build that happen, it has the exact mirror opposite effect on the way out |
| I think this looks to us more like normalization of credit there don't tend to be any particular portfolio segments where we're seeing signs of trouble |
| And yes, there will be a little more burden on the regulatory front that we all have to deal with |
| Loans, like we said to you, we're taking Resi down because we've gotten overweighted in Resi that was down to 25% |
