Good morning and welcome. Thank you for joining today’s earnings conference call. Following the disruption in the financial industry in the first quarter, we have seen stabilization across the entire banking sector, and in the second quarter, we were able to squarely focus on executing against our strategy.
We are extremely proud of the dedication and diligence of our team, as we experienced total deposit growth, loan portfolio average yield increases, and continued strength in our Advisory and Trust business.
We were able to get our loan-to-deposit ratio back below 100% and our percentage of insured and collateralized deposits to 88% of total deposits as of June 30, 2023, which we believe is an exceptional number comparatively.
For the second quarter, we reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $212.3 million, representing $3.7 -- a loss of $3.76 per share, including a second quarter 2023 results is a non-cash goodwill impairment charge totaling $215.3 million. The goodwill impairment is a non-cash charge and has no impact on regulatory capital ratios, cash flows, liquidity position for the operations of the company and our ability to meet our client’s needs.
