Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased by $21.03 million, or 42.13%, from the comparative quarter of 2015.  The primary driver was an increase of $11.59 million in salaries and benefits expense due to the addition of staff resulting from the Monarch acquisition, combined with the addition of staff resulting from the acquisitions in our Insurance and Realty segment businesses.  Also contributing were increases in occupancy expenses of $1.95 million and furniture and equipment expenses of $0.99 million primarily related to facilities acquired in the Monarch acquisition.

Third Quarter 2016 Compared to Third Quarter 2015

Banking
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2016 for the Banking segment was $18.28 million as compared to $14.15 million in the comparative 2015 quarter, as net interest income climbed by $14.17 million due to the increase in earning assets related to the Monarch merger.  Average loan balances saw an increase of $1.28 billion.  Partially offsetting the increase was an increase in noninterest expenses of $6.92 million and an increase in the loan loss provision.

Realty
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Realty segment had net income of $4.82 million compared to $2.35 million for the third quarter of 2015.  The current quarter results were driven by an increase in residential mortgage banking income of $13.16 million, or 154.15%, due to higher production volumes resulting from the Monarch merger.  Additionally, property management fees increased by $1.02 million, or 30.39%, primarily due to our purchase of Oak Island in January 2016.  The increase in revenue was partially offset by an increase in operational expenses related to the merger with Monarch.

Insurance
The Insurance segment had net income of $1.09 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $0.01 million as compared to the third quarter of 2015.  Insurance agencies acquired in 2015 contributed additional revenue, net of commission expense, of $0.97 million in third quarter 2016.  Contributing to the increase was an improvement in commercial lines commissions and commissions from travel insurance.  The acquired agencies resulted in additional noninterest expenses of $0.95 million, primarily related to personnel expenses.

Third Quarter 2016 Compared to Second Quarter 2016

Banking
The increase in earnings from $1.29 million in the second quarter of 2016 was driven by an increase in net interest income of $12.03 million due to the growth in earning assets resulting from the Monarch merger, combined with a decrease in noninterest expenses of $11.31 million and a decrease in the loan loss provision of $0.41 million.  The decrease in noninterest expenses resulted from a decrease in acquisition-related expenses of $17.16 million, partially offset by an increase in personnel costs of $3.39 million.

Realty
Net income in the Realty segment increased by $1.05 million from the linked quarter ended June 30, 2016.  The increase resulted primarily from the merger-driven growth in residential mortgage banking income of $9.20 million.  Also contributing was a seasonal increase in our resort property management business.

Insurance
Net income decreased $0.12 million from the second quarter of 2016.  The variance from the linked quarter was a result of a drop in contingency and bonus revenue of $0.40 million, combined with a seasonal decrease in travel insurance commissions of $0.24 million.  Contingent commissions are seasonal in nature and are mostly received during the first quarter of each year.  The seasonal decrease in revenue was partially offset by a decline in operating expenses during the current quarter.
