2nd Quarter 2024 vs 1st Quarter 2024
Net Interest Income:
Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 totaled $17.8 million compared to $18.1 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 1.7%, driven primarily by an increase of $0.6 million in interest expense on deposits and a decrease of $0.3 million in interest income on taxable securities, offset by increases of $0.3 million in interest income on loans, including fees and $0.2 million in interest income on interest-earning deposits, and a decrease of $0.1 million in interest expense on borrowed funds.
Interest expense on deposits increased primarily due to growth in the average balances of customer time deposits and an increase of 11 basis points in the average interest rate paid on total interest-bearing deposits, compared to the prior quarter. Average balances of total interest-bearing deposits increased $14.0 million, which was comprised of an increase of $34.2 million in customer interest-bearing deposits and a decrease of $20.2 million in brokered deposits. Average balances of customer time deposits increased $47.1 million and the average cost of customer time deposits increased 20 basis points compared to the prior quarter, while the average cost of brokered deposits decreased two basis points. Customer time deposits comprised 21.9% of average total deposits for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 20.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in the average balances and average cost of customer time deposits was primarily due to the continuation of CD campaigns in the current quarter. The decrease in interest income on taxable securities was primarily due to lower average balances of mortgage-backed and SBA pooled loan securities and additional amortization expense on SBA pooled loan securities, both due to paydown activity.
Interest income on loans, including fees, increased primarily due to a $32.1 million increase in average commercial loan balances, compared to the prior quarter. Average balances of consumer and residential mortgage loans decreased by $7.3 million and $4.2 million respectively, while average yields of consumer and residential mortgages increased 11 and two basis points respectively, compared to the prior quarter. Demand for commercial originations remained strong, while demand for residential mortgages remained weaker due to market conditions. The Corporation continued to elect to sell a larger portion of its residential mortgage originations into the secondary market. The increase in interest income on interest-earning deposits was due to an increase of $11.5 million in average balances compared to the prior quarter. The decrease in interest expense on borrowed funds was due primarily to a decrease in the average cost of total borrowings of 11 basis points, and a decrease in average balances of borrowed funds of $3.7 million in the current quarter, compared to the prior quarter. The average cost of total borrowings for the current quarter was 5.04%, compared to 5.15% in the prior quarter, primarily due to the Corporation's utilization of the lower cost Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) for the entirety of the second quarter, partially replacing higher cost FHLBNY borrowings.
Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 2.66% in the current quarter, compared to 2.73% in the prior quarter. Contraction in net interest margin in the current quarter was partially attributable to $0.3 million in interest income recognized on the payoff of a nonaccrual commercial loan in the prior quarter, additional amortization expense on SBA pooled loan securities in the current quarter, and an increase of nine basis points in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities in the current quarter, to 2.94%. Average balances of interest-earning assets increased $18.3 million in the current quarter, compared to the prior quarter, while the average yield on interest-earning assets decreased one basis point, compared to the prior quarter, to 4.69%.
Provision for Credit Losses:
Provision for credit losses increased $2.9 million in the current quarter compared to the prior quarter. Provisioning in the current quarter was primarily attributable to loan growth in the commercial portfolio, declining prepayment assumptions used in the Bank's CECL model, and a $0.2 million specific allocation on a commercial and industrial loan. Also contributing to the increase in the current quarter was the annual review and update of the loss drivers used in the Bank's CECL model during the prior quarter, which resulted in a reduction in the allowance for credit losses and a provision release of $2.0 million in the prior quarter.
Non-Interest Income:
Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $5.6 million, compared to $5.7 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1.8%. The decrease was driven primarily by decreases of $0.2 million in other non-interest income and $0.1 million in the change in fair value of equity investments, offset by an increase of $0.2 million in wealth management group fee income.
The decrease in other non-interest income was primarily attributable to the receipt of vendor incentives in the prior quarter. The decrease in the change in fair value of equity investments was primarily attributable to a smaller increase in the market value of assets held for the Corporation's deferred compensation plan during the current quarter, compared to the prior quarter. The increase in wealth management group fee income was primarily due an increase in tax preparation service fee income in the current quarter.
Non-Interest Expense:
Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $16.2 million, compared to $16.7 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 3.0%. The decrease was driven primarily by decreases of $0.3 million in data processing and $0.2 million in salaries and wages.
The decrease in data processing was primarily due to a decrease in third party core processor expenses in the current quarter, compared to the prior quarter. The decrease in salaries and wages was primarily attributable to a smaller increase in the market value of assets held for the Corporation's deferred compensation plan and the recognition of expenses in the prior quarter related to the realignment of certain back office functions.
Income Tax Expense:
Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $1.3 million, compared to $2.0 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $0.7 million. The effective tax rate for the current quarter decreased to 20.3% from 22.4% in the prior quarter. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily attributable to a decrease in pretax income.
2nd Quarter 2024 vs 2nd Quarter 2023
Net Interest Income:
Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 totaled $17.8 million compared to $18.6 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 4.3%, driven primarily by increases of $4.2 million in interest expense on deposits and $0.2 million in interest expense on borrowed funds, offset by an increase of $3.7 million in interest income on loans, including fees.
Interest expense on deposits increased primarily due to a 85 basis points increase in the average interest rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, which included brokered deposits, and an increase of $152.9 million in the average balance of customer interest-bearing deposits. Both the increase in the average interest rate paid and the average balances of customer interest-bearing deposits were primarily attributable to continued focus on CD campaigns throughout the second half of 2023 and first half of 2024, as well as a general shift in the deposit mix towards higher cost accounts. The average balances of brokered deposits decreased $55.0 million, while the average interest rate paid on brokered deposits increased 23 basis points, compared to the same period in the prior year. Average balances of brokered deposits decreased primarily due to the utilization of the BTFP and FHLBNY term advances in the current quarter, which were not utilized in the same period in the prior year.
The increase in interest expense on borrowed funds was primarily due to a $15.5 million increase in the average balances of borrowed funds, partially offset by a decrease of nine basis points in the average interest rate paid on borrowed funds. Changes in the composition of borrowed funds reflects the Corporation's shift to the lower cost BTFP, as well as FHLBNY term advances, partially replacing FHLBNY overnight advances in the current quarter. The average balances of FHLBNY overnight advances decreased $43.1 million, while the average interest rate paid on FHLBNY overnight advances increased 29 basis points, compared to the same period in the prior year.
Interest income on loans, including fees, increased primarily due to a $151.0 million increase in average commercial loan balances and an increase of 33 basis points in the average yield on commercial loans, compared to the same period in the prior year. Commercial loan growth was primarily concentrated in the Albany region of New York, with additional growth in Western New York. Average consumer loan balances decreased $9.9 million, primarily due to lower indirect auto loan origination activity in the first half of 2024, compared to the prior year, while the average yield on consumer loans increased 78 basis points, primarily due to runoff of older vintage indirect auto loans and interest rate increases on variable rate home equity loans. Average balances of residential mortgage loans decreased $11.4 million compared to the same period in the prior year, due to lower origination activity and an increase in sales of new originations into the secondary market, while the average yield on residential mortgage loans increased 23 basis points compared to the same period in the prior year.
Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 2.66% for the second quarter 2024, compared to 2.87% for the same period in the prior year. The Corporation exhibited a greater level of liability sensitivity in the second half of 2023 and first half of 2024, compared to the greater asset sensitivity experienced at the beginning of the current rising interest rate environment. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 83 basis points to 2.94%, for the second quarter of 2024, and average balances of interest-bearing liabilities increased $113.3 million, while the average yield on interest-earning assets increased 40 basis points to 4.69% and average balances of interest-earning assets increased $89.5 million. Growth in average balances of interest-bearing liabilities exceeded growth in average balances of interest-earning assets by $23.8 million between the second quarters of 2023 and 2024 due to a shift in the overall deposit mix to higher cost account types, particularly to time deposits.
Provision for Credit Losses:
Provision for credit losses increased $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to more favorable changes to FOMC forecasts between the first and second quarters of 2023, compared to the changes between the first and second quarters of 2024, a decline in modeled prepayment speeds in the current period, and a $0.2 million specific allocation on a commercial and industrial loan in the current period. Net charge offs increased $0.2 million in the current period, compared to the same period in the prior year.
Non-Interest Income:
Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $5.6 million compared to $5.4 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.2 million, or 3.7%. The increase was primarily driven by increases of $0.3 million in wealth management group fee income and $0.1 million in the change in fair value of equity investments, partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in other non-interest income. The increase in wealth management group fee income was primarily attributable to an increase of 9.8% in assets under management, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in the change in fair value of equity investments was primarily due to a decline in the market value of a particular asset held by the Corporation during the same period in the prior year. The decrease in other non-interest income was primarily due to a decrease in swap fee income during the current period, compared to the same period in the prior year, and a decrease in other small items of non-interest income.
Non-Interest Expense:
Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $16.2 million compared to $15.9 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1.9%. The increase was primarily driven by increases of $0.3 million in pension and other employee benefits, $0.2 million in marketing and advertising, $0.2 million in other non-interest expense, and $0.1 million in salaries and wages, partially offset by decreases of $0.2 million in data processing and $0.1 million in loan expenses.
The increase in pension and other employee benefits for the current quarter was primarily attributable to an increase in employee healthcare expenses, compared to the same period in the prior year. Marketing and advertising increased during the current quarter compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a deposit account promotion relating to the Bank's 190th anniversary, increased advertising activity in the current year period, and consulting engagements. Other non-interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in expenses related to community relations and other miscellaneous expense. Salaries and wages increased primarily due to base salary increases and an increase in the market value of assets held for the Corporation's deferred compensation plan. The decrease in data processing for the current period compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to a decrease in core processing expenses. The decrease in loan expenses was partially attributable to lower collection-related fees and overall lower origination activity.
Income Tax Expense:
Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $1.3 million compared to $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $0.3 million. The effective tax rate for the current quarter was 20.3%, compared to 20.4% for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily attributable to a decrease in pretax income.
Asset Quality
Non-performing loans totaled $8.2 million as of June 30, 2024, or 0.41% of total loans, compared to $10.4 million, or 0.53% of total loans as of December 31, 2023. The decrease in non-performing loans was primarily attributable to the payoff of a nonaccrual commercial real estate loan totaling $1.9 million, as well as $0.6 million in paydown activity on other nonaccrual commercial loans, $1.2 million in paydown activity on nonaccrual consumer and residential mortgage loans, and $0.5 million in net consumer loan charge offs, partially offset by $2.4 million in newly designated nonaccrual loans. Non-performing assets, which are comprised of non-performing loans, other real estate owned, and repossessed vehicles, were $8.9 million, or 0.32% of total assets, as of June 30, 2024, compared to $10.7 million, or 0.40% of total assets, as of December 31, 2023. Other real estate owned was $0.5 million and repossessed vehicles was $0.1 million as of June 30, 2024. The decrease in non-performing assets can be attributed to the decrease in non-performing loans.
Total loan delinquencies as of June 30, 2024 declined compared to December 31, 2023, primarily attributable to declines in commercial and consumer loan delinquency rates during the period, partially offset by an increase in residential mortgage delinquency rates. Management continues to monitor the impact that elevated interest rates may have on its borrowers. Annualized net charge-offs to total average loans for the second quarter of 2024 were 0.06%, compared to 0.04% for the first quarter of 2024, and 0.05% for the year ended December 31, 2023. Annualized consumer net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were 0.38% of average consumer loan balances and 0.46% of average consumer loan balances for the second quarter of 2024, primarily concentrated in indirect auto loans, while commercial loans and residential mortgage loans each had net recovery rates for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the second quarter of 2024.
The allowance for credit losses was $21.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and $22.5 million as of December 31, 2023. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments, a component of other liabilities, was $0.8 million as of June 30, 2024 and $0.9 million as of December 31, 2023. The decrease in the allowance for credit losses was primarily attributable to the annual review and update to the loss drivers which the Bank's CECL model is based upon. Recalibration of the loss drivers resulted in a decline in the baseline loss rates which the model utilizes. FOMC projections for the economic variables used in the model were relatively unchanged between December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024. Declines in prepayment speeds between December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024 increased modeled reserve requirements, particularly for residential mortgage loans, as did an increase in loan balances between December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024.
The allowance for credit losses was 256.63% of non-performing loans as of June 30, 2024 and 216.28% as of December 31, 2023. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.05% as of June 30, 2024 and 1.14% as of December 31, 2023. Provision for credit losses as a percentage of period-end loan balances was 0.04% for the second quarter of 2024.
Balance Sheet Activity
Total assets were $2.756 billion as of June 30, 2024 compared to $2.711 billion as of December 31, 2023, an increase of $45.3 million, or 1.7%. The increase can mostly be attributed to increases of $38.8 million in loans, net of deferred origination fees and costs, $33.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, $4.0 million in accrued interest receivable and other assets, and a decrease of $1.5 million in the allowance for credit losses, offset by a decrease of $33.2 million in total investment securities.
The increase in loans, net of deferred origination fees and costs, was concentrated in the commercial loan portfolio, which increased by $57.9 million, or 4.2%, compared to prior year-end. Commercial loan growth during the current period was concentrated in the Albany region of New York. Consumer loans decreased by $12.8 million, or 4.2%, primarily driven by weaker origination activity in indirect auto loans during the current six month period, compared to the prior two years, and the relatively fast turnover rate of the portfolio. Residential mortgages decreased by $6.4 million, or 2.3%, as the Corporation continued to sell a greater proportion of originations into the secondary market and market conditions kept demand for originations subdued.
The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to $50.0 million in advances from the Federal Reserve BTFP and $26.8 million in paydowns and maturities of securities, primarily offset by an increase of $38.8 million in loans, net of deferred origination fees and costs and a decrease of $13.5 million in total deposits, compared to prior year-end. The increase in accrued interest receivable and other assets was primarily due to increases in interest rate swap assets of $1.5 million, due to an increase in the market value of swaps, and $1.5 million in deferred tax assets.
Total investment securities decreased primarily due to a decrease of $33.1 million in securities available for sale, compared to prior year-end. Net paydowns and maturities on securities available for sale for the current period totaled $26.7 million, primarily attributable to paydowns on mortgage-backed securities and SBA pooled-loan securities. The market value of securities available for sale declined by $5.3 million, due to unfavorable changes in interest rates during the first half of the year.
Total liabilities were $2.555 billion as of June 30, 2024 compared to $2.515 billion as of December 31, 2023, an increase of $39.3 million, or 1.6%. The increase in total liabilities can primarily be attributed to increases of $48.9 million in advances and other debt and $3.8 million in accrued interest payable and other liabilities, partially offset by a decrease of $13.5 million in deposits.
Total deposits decreased by $13.5 million or 0.6%, compared to prior year-end, primarily due to decreases of $34.0 million, or 5.2% in non-interest bearing demand deposits and $10.6 million, or 1.7% in money market deposits. Total time deposits decreased $5.6 million, or 0.9%, driven by a decrease of $73.3 million in brokered deposits and offset by an increase of $67.7 million in customer time deposits. Additionally, savings deposits decreased by $0.6 million. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $37.2 million in interest bearing demand deposits, or 12.8%. Non- interest bearing deposits comprised 25.6% and 26.9% of total deposits as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 respectively.
The increase in advances and other debt can primarily be attributed to a $50.0 million advance from the Federal Reserve, as the Corporation took advantage of lower interest rates offered by the BTFP, and a $30.0 million FHLBNY short term advance, offset by a decrease of $31.9 million in FHLBNY overnight advances. The increase in accrued interest payable and other liabilities was primarily due to increases in interest payable on borrowed funds of $1.2 million and interest payable on deposits of $0.9 million, as well as an increase in interest rate swap liabilities of $0.8 million, primarily due to an increase in the market value of swaps.
Total shareholders’ equity was $201.2 million as of June 30, 2024, compared to $195.2 million as of December 31, 2023, an increase of $6.0 million, or 3.1%, primarily driven by an increase of $9.1 million in retained earnings, offset by an increase of $3.9 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The increase in retained earnings was due primarily to net income of $12.0 million, offset by dividends declared of $2.9 million, and the increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss was primarily attributable to the unfavorable impact of interest rates on available for sale securities during the first half of 2024.
The total equity to total assets ratio was 7.30% as of June 30, 2024, compared to 7.20% as of December 31, 2023, and the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 6.56% as of June 30, 2024, compared to 6.45% as of December 31, 20231. Book value per share increased to $42.17 as of June 30, 2024 from $41.07 as of December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of those required to be considered well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Liquidity
The Corporation uses a variety of resources to manage its liquidity, and management believes it has the necessary liquidity to allow for flexibility in meeting its various business needs. These include short-term investments, cash flow from lending and investing activities, core-deposit growth and non-core funding sources, such as time deposits of $250,000 or greater, brokered deposits, FHLBNY advances, and FRB Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) advances. No new borrowings could be made under the BTFP after March 11, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Corporation's cash and cash equivalents balance was $70.2 million. The Corporation also maintains an investment portfolio of securities available for sale, comprised primarily of US Government treasury securities, SBA loan pools, mortgage-backed securities, and municipal bonds. Although this portfolio generates interest income for the Corporation, it also serves as an available source of liquidity and capital if the need should arise. As of June 30, 2024, the Corporation's investment in securities available for sale was $550.9 million, $206.4 million of which was not pledged as collateral. Additionally, as of June 30, 2024, the Bank's total advance line capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York was $221.4 million. The Bank utilized $30.0 million of this capacity and had $191.4 million in additional available capacity as of June 30, 2024. Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis for liquidity purposes or on a long-term basis to fund asset growth. In January 2024, the Corporation utilized the BTFP with an advance of $50.0 million, maturing in January 2025, however BTFP advances may be prepaid at any time without prepayment penalty.
As of June 30, 2024, uninsured deposits totaled $635.2 million, or 26.3% of total deposits, including $188.8 million of municipal deposits that were collateralized by pledged assets. As of December 31, 2023, uninsured deposits totaled $655.7 million, or 27.0% of total deposits, including $153.2 million of municipal deposits that were collateralized by pledged assets. Due to their fluidity, the Corporation closely monitors uninsured deposit levels when considering liquidity management strategies.
The Corporation considers brokered deposits to be an element of its deposit strategy, and anticipates it may continue utilizing brokered deposits as a secondary source of funding in support of growth. As of June 30, 2024, the Corporation had entered into brokered deposit arrangements with multiple brokers. As of June 30, 2024, brokered deposits carried terms between 3 and 48 months, with staggered maturities, totaling $69.5 million. Excluding brokered deposits, total deposits increased $59.8 million compared to December 31, 2023.
Other Items
The market value of total assets under management or administration in our Wealth Management Group was $2.377 billion as of June 30, 2024, including $412.1 million of assets under management or administration for the Corporation, compared to $2.242 billion as of December 31, 2023, including $381.3 million of assets under management or administration for the Corporation, an increase of $134.9 million, or 6.0%, due primarily to relatively strong equity markets during 2024.
As previously announced on January 8, 2021, the Corporation's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)
The Corporation prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP. See the Corporation’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets and statements of income contained within this press release. That presentation provides the reader with an understanding of the Corporation’s results that can be tracked consistently from period-to-period and enables a comparison of the Corporation’s performance with other companies’ GAAP financial statements.
In addition to analyzing the Corporation’s results on a reported basis, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, because it believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information to investors about the underlying operational performance and trends of the Corporation and, therefore, facilitate a comparison of the Corporation with the performance of other companies. Non- GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
The SEC has adopted Regulation G, which applies to all public disclosures, including earnings releases, made by registered companies that contain “non-GAAP financial measures.” Under Regulation G, companies making public disclosures containing non- GAAP financial measures must also disclose, along with each non-GAAP financial measure, certain additional information, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure and a statement of the Corporation’s reasons for utilizing the non-GAAP financial measure as part of its financial disclosures. The SEC has exempted from the definition of “non-GAAP financial measures” certain commonly used financial measures that are not based on GAAP. When these exempted measures are included in public disclosures, supplemental information is not required. The following measures used in this Report, which are commonly utilized by financial institutions, have not been specifically exempted by the SEC and may constitute "non- GAAP financial measures" within the meaning of the SEC's rules, although we are unable to state with certainty that the SEC would so regard them.
Fully Taxable Equivalent Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income is commonly presented on a tax-equivalent basis. That is, to the extent that some component of the institution's net interest income, which is presented on a before-tax basis, is exempt from taxation (e.g., is received by the institution as a result of its holdings of state or municipal obligations), an amount equal to the tax benefit derived from that component is added to the actual before-tax net interest income total. This adjustment is considered helpful in comparing one financial institution's net interest income to that of other institutions or in analyzing any institution’s net interest income trend line over time, to correct any analytical distortion that might otherwise arise from the fact that financial institutions vary widely in the proportions of their portfolios that are invested in tax- exempt securities, and that even a single institution may significantly alter over time the proportion of its own portfolio that is invested in tax-exempt obligations. Moreover, net interest income is itself a component of a second financial measure commonly used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net interest income to average interest-earning assets. For purposes of this measure as well, fully taxable equivalent net interest income is generally used by financial institutions, as opposed to actual net interest income, again to provide a better basis of comparison from institution to institution and to better demonstrate a single institution’s performance over time. The Corporation follows these practices.

Efficiency Ratio
The unadjusted efficiency ratio is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and non-interest income). The adjusted efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure which represents the Corporation’s ability to turn resources into revenue and is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (fully taxable equivalent net interest income and non- interest income), adjusted for one-time occurrences and amortization. This measure is meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s productivity measured by the amount of revenue generated for each dollar spent.

Adjustments for Certain Items of Income or Expense
In addition to disclosures of certain GAAP financial measures, including net income, EPS, ROA, and ROE, we may also provide comparative disclosures that adjust these GAAP financial measures for a particular period by removing from the calculation thereof the impact of certain transactions or other material items of income or expense occurring during the period, including certain nonrecurring items. The Corporation believes that the resulting non-GAAP financial measures may improve an understanding of its results of operations by separating out any such transactions or items that may have had a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the Corporation’s financial results during the particular period in question. In the Corporation’s presentation of any such non-GAAP (adjusted) financial measures not specifically discussed in the preceding paragraphs, the Corporation supplies the supplemental financial information and explanations required under Regulation G.
