Net Interest Income was $4.9 million and $4.0 million for the quarters ending June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. The annualized net interest margin for the second quarter 2022 equated to 4.37% compared with 3.65% for the second quarter of 2021. The Company has maintained consistent net interest margin over the past two years, in part due to the Bank's participation in the PPP Program which allowed for short-term forgivable loans with an interest rate of 1.00%. While the origination of PPP loans has applied downward pressure to net interest margin, the PPP loans originated in the first round during 2020 and the second round in 2021 have had a significant impact on the Bank's financial statements. During the second quarter of 2022, the Bank recognized approximately $1 million in deferred fees realized from forgiven PPP loans originated during the program.
