For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company reported net income of $5.5 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared to net income of $5.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The Company also announced that the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share on the Company's common stock. The dividend will be payable on or about August 24, 2022 to shareholders of record on August 10, 2022. In addition, the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase plan (the "2022 Plan"), pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to 1.1 million shares of the Company's common stock, or approximately 5.0%, of the Company's outstanding shares, of common stock as of the date the 2022 Plan was adopted. Repurchase under the 2022 Plan may begin after the Company has repurchased all of the shares of its common stock authorized for repurchase under the stock repurchase plan adopted in 2021 (the "2021 Plan"). The 2021 Plan was announced on April 27, 2021 and as of June 30, 2022, there were 271,472 shares of common stock available for purchase under the 2021 Plan.
"The Company continues to experience strong quarterly earnings adding to the momentum from last year's record profitability. We are pleased to report solid earnings for the second quarter of 2022 along with strong overall loan growth. We remain focused on executing our strategy of driving commercial loan growth, which has been a key contributor to the Company's ongoing profitability," said James C. Hagan, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We remain optimistic about the Company's growth opportunities in 2022 and we continue to be successful despite the current economic environment.
The Company continues to show strong loan growth in key loan categories funded by excess cash generated through increases in our core deposits. We saw strong organic core deposit grow of $96.7 million, or 5.2%, since year-end, which will be beneficial in a rising interest rate environment. We are pleased to report that our total loan portfolio increased $133.7 million, or 7.3% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, excluding Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans that were forgiven by the Small Business Administration ("SBA"). As we continue to add new customer relationships throughout New England and in key strategic lending areas, we have seen the strongest growth from our commercial real estate lending portfolio, which increased $94.9 million, or 9.7%, during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Commercial and industrial loans continue to be added to our loan portfolio and remain a strategic priority. We continue to be mindful of certain economic and business conditions, such as inflation, utilization of accumulated cash to fund operations, and supply chain issues that may affect some of our business customers, as well as the additional anticipated Federal Reserve interest rate increases, but remain optimistic about our loan portfolio growth and meeting the needs of our business and commercial customers.
We believe the balance sheet management steps we took in 2021 have had a positive impact on earnings and growth and have directly resulted in an increase in net interest income and the net interest margin, which increased from 3.08% in the fourth quarter of 2021 to 3.24% in the second quarter of 2022. Our disciplined approach to managing funding costs has helped to expand our net interest margin as we continue to deploy our excess liquidity and core deposits to fund loan growth. Our asset quality remains extremely solid, with historical lows for nonperforming loans to total loans of 0.21%, and our capital position continues to remain strong."

Hagan concluded, "We will continue to implement our various strategic initiatives which have resulted in solid earnings last year and through the first two quarters of this year and will continue our efforts to grow the Company throughout the remaining quarters and increase overall shareholder value."

The shares of common stock repurchased under the 2021 Plan and the 2022 Plan will be purchased from time to time at prevailing market prices, through open market or privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, depending upon market conditions. There is no guarantee as to the exact number, or value, of shares that will be repurchased by the Company, and the Company may discontinue repurchases at any time that management determines additional repurchases are not warranted. The timing and amount of additional share repurchases under the 2021 Plan and the 2022 Plan will depend on a number of factors, including the Company's stock price performance, ongoing capital planning considerations, general market conditions, and applicable legal requirements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the change in accumulated other comprehensive income/loss ("AOCI") reduced the tangible book value per common share by $0.64 as of June 30, 2022, primarily due to the impact of higher interest rates on the fair value of available-for-sale securities. Tangible book value is a non-GAAP measure. See pages 18-21 for the related tangible book value calculation and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. As of June 30, 2022, the Company's and the Bank's regulatory capital ratios continued to exceed the levels required to be considered "well-capitalized" under federal banking regulations.

The change in AOCI reduced the tangible book value per common share by $0.64 as of June 30, 2022, primarily due to the impact of higher interest rates on the fair value of available-for-sale securities. Tangible book value is a non-GAAP measure. See pages 18-21 for the related tangible book value calculation and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.
9

Dividends
Although the Company has historically paid quarterly dividends on its common stock and currently intends to continue to pay such dividends, the Company's ability to pay such dividends depends on a number of factors, including restrictions under federal laws and regulations on the Company's ability to pay dividends, and as a result, there can be no assurance that dividends will continue to be paid in the future.

| (1) | Loans, including nonaccrual loans, are net of deferred loan origination costs and unadvanced funds. |
| (2) | Loan and securities income are presented on a tax-equivalent basis using a tax rate of 21%. The tax-equivalent adjustment is deducted from tax-equivalent net interest and dividend income to agree to the amount reported on the consolidated statements of net income. |
| (3) | Short-term investments include federal funds sold. |
| (4) | Net interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. |
| (5) | Net interest rate spread, on a tax-equivalent basis, represents the difference between the tax-equivalent weighted average yield on interest-earning assets and the tax-equivalent weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. |
| (6) | Net interest margin represents net interest and dividend income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. |
| (7) | Net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, represents tax-equivalent net interest and dividend income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. |
| (8) | Acquired loans, time deposits and borrowings are recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition. The fair value marks on the loans, time deposits and borrowings acquired accrete and amortize into net interest income over time. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, the loan accretion income and interest expense reduction on time deposits and borrowings increased (decreased) net interest income $64,000, ($31,000) and $(33,000), respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the loan accretion income and interest expense reduction on time deposits and borrowings increased (decreased) net interest income $103,000 and $(78,000), respectively. Excluding these items, net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 was 3.25%, 3.10% and 3.09%, respectively, and the net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 was 3.22% and 3.18%, respectively. |
