Growth continued in the second quarter with increases in total assets of $25.3 million, bringing the overall assets to $728.4 million as of the quarter's end. The asset growth was primarily driven by a $24.5 million increase in gross loans for the quarter, contributing to a $54.2 million increase for the year-to-date. Our Charleston market led the way, representing 50.66% of the growth. Loan growth was funded by a $22.7 million increase in our deposit portfolio for the quarter.

Total past due accruing loans, net of the amounts guaranteed by the U.S. government, increased to 0.16% as of June 30, 2018.
CarBucks, our specialty floor plan lending division, saw an improvement in credit loss rate to an annualized rate of 1.20% in the second quarter, and 1.46% for the year to date.
