Operating Results for the 2023 Second Quarter
Net interest income. Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the 2023 second quarter totaled $130.7 million, a decrease of 2% compared with $133.9 million in the preceding first quarter. 2023 second quarter interest income of $267.2 million increased $30.5 million quarter-over-quarter, driven by growth in average interest earning cash and deposits at other banks, as well as expanding loan yields. This was offset by higher interest expense, which increased $33.7 million quarter-over-quarter, reflecting a higher cost of interest bearing deposits and a higher volume of average borrowings.
The net interest margin for the 2023 second quarter decreased 32 basis points to 2.70%, from 3.02% in the preceding first quarter, primarily reflecting a higher cost of funds and an increase in average borrowings, partially offset by loan yield expansion and growth in average interest earning cash and deposits at other banks.

3-3-3 NASDAQ: HOPE
The weighted average yield on loans for the 2023 second quarter was 5.99%, up 24 basis points from 5.75% in the preceding first quarter. This reflected increases in market interest rates and a significant increase in the average rate on new loans.

The weighted average cost of total deposits for the 2023 second quarter was 2.79%, up 42 basis points from 2.37% in the preceding first quarter, reflecting higher rates paid on interest bearing deposit accounts.
Noninterest income. Noninterest income for the 2023 second quarter totaled $17.0 million, up 55% from $11.0 million in the preceding first quarter.

Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense for the 2023 second quarter decreased 3% to $87.3 million, down from $90.4 million in the preceding first quarter.
