(2) For more information on the calculation of net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis, see the average balance sheet and net interest margin analysis for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 contained in this release.
The Company's results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were directly impacted by increases in the average balances of loans, deposits, short-term borrowings and senior subordinated debt during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same periods in 2015. Loan yields declined 23 and 18 basis points for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same periods in 2015, with 13 and 9 basis points, respectively, of the decline resulting from the lower accretion of fair value adjustments related to the acquisition of Virginia Company Bank ("VCB") in November 2014. Also, as previously disclosed, the Company engaged an independent consultant to conduct a comprehensive assessment of its operations during the first half of 2015. The assessment identified operating efficiencies and revenue enhancement opportunities. The Company has leveraged the assessment's findings, and since the second half of 2015, has continued to realize targeted increases in revenues and declines in certain noninterest expenses, particularly salaries and employee benefits expense.
In announcing these results, Joe A. Shearin, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "I am pleased with our Company's results during the first half of 2016 and the continued company-wide focus to grow our balance sheet, improve profitability and enhance the quality of products and services we offer to our customers. For the first six months of 2016, as compared to the same period of 2015, we are reporting an increase in net income available to common shareholders of 51.5%, an increase in annualized return on average assets of 19 basis points to 0.65%, and an increase in annualized return on average common shareholders' equity of 219 basis points to 7.65%. Net income declined during the second quarter of 2016 as compared to the first quarter of 2016 and was primarily driven by a lower net interest margin and higher current period expenses. The lower net interest margin was driven by lower loan yields as a result of competitive pressures in the historically low rate environment. In addition, loan growth was lower than expected during the second quarter of 2016 and was driven primarily by the payoff of several large commercial loans late in the period. Despite this, we have generated loan growth of 3.3% during the first half of 2016 and 8.2% during the last twelve months, which outpaced our internal targets. Given our current pipeline of loan opportunities and our focus on total relationship banking, we believe that we are poised to deliver quality growth throughout the balance of 2016. Salaries and employee benefits in the current period were impacted by annual merit increases as well as higher group insurance expense due to claims, while other operating expenses in the current period were impacted by increases in director compensation, legal services related to equity compensation plans, securities and corporate governance matters and shareholder services related to our conversion to a new transfer agent. Many of the other operating expenses which were elevated this quarter are expected to level off during the remainder of 2016."
Shearin continued, "Last month we made the exciting announcement that we will be relocating our corporate headquarters to the Innsbrook business park in Glen Allen, Virginia in early fall 2016. Our new corporate headquarters will allow us to integrate corporate departments from other locations throughout our footprint. Currently, key members of our Executive Leadership Team, as well as other corporate departments, are remotely located in various locations. We believe this relocation will increase collaboration and productivity and capture operating efficiencies throughout the Company. Our new headquarters will also provide us the space and flexibility needed to continue to grow and reach new customers. The main office of EVB will remain in Tappahannock, Virginia and continue our heritage of serving the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula markets since 1910. I am also pleased to announce that the Board of Directors declared another cash dividend of $0.02 per share of common stock and Series B Preferred Stock payable August 26, 2016 to shareholders of record as of August 12, 2016."
For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the following were significant factors in the Company's reported results:
-- Increase in net interest income of $359 thousand from the same period in 2015, principally due to an increase in interest and fees on loans driven primarily by loan growth, partially offset by increases in interest expense associated with our short-term borrowings and the issuance of $20.0 million in senior subordinated debt during the second quarter of 2015; -- Net interest margin (tax equivalent basis) decreased 22 basis points to 3.71% during the second quarter of 2016 as compared to 3.93% for the same period of 2015 primarily due to a decline in yields on the loan portfolio and the impact of interest incurred on the senior subordinated debt; -- Net accretion attributable to accounting adjustments related to the VCB acquisition was $61 thousand for the second quarter of 2016, as compared to $223 thousand in the same period of 2015; -- Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2016 increased $2.0 million from March 31, 2016, primarily due to a $1.4 million increase in loans past due 90 days and accruing interest (of which the majority of this increase came from a single purchased credit-impaired loan that is well secured) and a $1.4 million increase in other real estate owned (of which the majority of this increase came from foreclosures on several one to four family residential investment properties owned by a single borrower), partially offset by a $819 thousand decrease in nonaccrual loans; -- Net gain on sale of available for sale securities of $172 thousand as compared to $26 thousand in the same period of 2015 were higher due to the adjustments of the composition of the investment securities portfolio as part of our overall asset/liability management strategy; -- Decrease in salaries and employee benefits of $37 thousand from the same period in 2015, primarily due to reductions in staff levels during 2015 and 2016 that were driven by operating efficiencies identified in the aforementioned comprehensive assessment of our operations, partially offset by increased group insurance expense from increased claims activity during the second quarter of 2016; -- Decrease in FDIC expense due to billing adjustments in the prior year related to the VCB acquisition; -- Increased collection, repossession and other real estate owned expense of $41 thousand from the same period in 2015 due to increased collections costs associated with classified assets; and -- No effective dividend on preferred stock in the second quarter of 2016 as compared to $166 thousand from the same period of 2015. This was due to the redemption of the remaining 9,000 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock in a transaction completed during the second quarter of 2015.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the following were significant factors in the Company's reported results:
-- Increase in net interest income of $800 thousand from the same period in 2015, principally due to an increase in interest and fees on loans driven primarily by loan growth, partially offset by an increase in interest expense associated with our short-term borrowings and the issuance of $20.0 million in senior subordinated debt during the second quarter of 2015; -- Net interest margin (tax equivalent basis) decreased 23 basis points to 3.74% during the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to 3.97% for the same period of 2015 primarily due to a decline in yields on the loan portfolio and the impact of interest incurred on the senior subordinated debt; -- Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2016 increased $2.8 million from December 31, 2015, primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in loans past due 90 days and accruing interest (of which the majority of this increase came from a single purchased credit-impaired loan this is well secured) and a $1.8 million increase in other real estate owned (of which the majority of this increase came from foreclosures on several one to four family residential investment properties owned by a single borrower). Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2016 increased $1.8 million from June 30, 2015, primarily due to a $2.3 million increase in loans past due 90 days and accruing interest and a $936 thousand increase in other real estate owned, partially offset by a decrease of $1.5 million in nonaccrual loans. The increase in loans past due 90 days and accruing interest was due to the nonpayment of a large one to four family residential real estate loan and a large non-farm, non-residential real estate loan as a result of the deteriorating financial condition of the borrowers; -- Net gain on sale of available for sale securities of $237 thousand as compared to $51 thousand in the same period of 2015 were higher due to the adjustments of the composition of the investment securities portfolio as part of our overall asset/liability management strategy; -- Increased collection, repossession and other real estate owned expense of $117 thousand from the same period in 2015 due to increased collections costs associated with classified assets; -- Decrease in merger and merger related expenses of $224 thousand due to certain costs incurred during the first quarter of 2015 associated with the VCB acquisition that were not repeated in 2016; and -- No effective dividend on preferred stock in the first six months of 2016 as compared to $386 thousand from the same period of 2015. This was due to the redemption of the remaining 14,000 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock in transactions completed during the first half of 2015.

Interest Income and Expense
Net interest income and net interest margin
Net interest income in the second quarter of 2016 increased $359 thousand, or 3.4%, when compared to the second quarter of 2015. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 increased $800 thousand, or 3.8%, when compared to the same period in 2015. The Company's net interest margin (tax equivalent basis) decreased to 3.71% and 3.74% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, representing 22 and 23 basis point decreases over the Company's net interest margin (tax equivalent basis) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. The declines in the net interest margin (tax equivalent basis) were primarily driven by lower loan yields as a result of competitive pressures in the historically low rate environment, lower accretion of fair value adjustments related to the VCB acquisition and increased interest expense as a result of the private placement of $20.0 million of senior subordinated debt in April 2015. Additionally, the balance of and rates paid on our short-term borrowings increased as compared to the same periods in 2015. These margin pressures were largely offset in the Company's results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods in 2015, by the impact of increases in average loan balances. The most significant factors impacting net interest income during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 were as follows:
Positive Impact:
-- Increases in average loan balances, primarily due to organic loan growth and loan purchases, partially offset by lower loan yields.
Negative Impacts:
-- Decreases in average yields earned on investment securities, primarily tax exempt investment securities, partially offset by increases in average balances of total investment securities; -- Private placement of $20.0 million of senior subordinated debt during the second quarter of 2015 resulting in increases to total average interest-bearing liabilities and related interest expense; -- Increases in average short-term borrowings balances and rates paid, primarily due to loan growth outpacing deposit growth and other strategic initiatives; and -- The Company experienced higher average interest-bearing deposit balances during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 over the comparable 2015 periods, primarily due to customer growth. The rates paid on total average interest-bearing deposits increased 6 and 3 basis points for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, over the comparable periods in 2015. The result was an increase in interest expense attributable to the Company's deposit portfolio.
Total interest and dividend income
Total interest and dividend income increased 5.7% and 6.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2015. The increase in total interest and dividend income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was primarily driven by an increase in average loan and investment securities balances, partially offset by a decrease in average loan and investment securities yields.
Loans
Average loan balances increased for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods in 2015, primarily due to organic loan growth and the purchase of $18.3 million in performing one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, consumer loans and government guaranteed loans between June 2015 and June 2016. Loan growth during the first six months of 2016 outpaced our internal targets. However, loan growth in our rural markets, especially with respect to consumer loans, remains weak while competition for commercial loans, especially in the Richmond and Tidewater markets, has been and we expect will continue to be intense given the historically low rate environment. The Company's average loan balances increased $92.2 million and $85.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, as compared to average loan balances for the same periods in 2015. Total average loans were 76.5% of total average interest-earning assets for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 74.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Total average loans were 76.4% of total average interest-earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 75.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2015.
Investment securities
Average total investment securities balances increased 1.7% and 3.0% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2015. The overall increase was the result of management of the Company's liquidity needs to support its operations, along with funds provided by deposit growth and measured loan demand in the Company's markets, partially offset by a lack of investment opportunities with acceptable risk-adjusted rates of return. The Company remains committed to its long-term target of managing the investment securities portfolio to comprise 20% of the Company's total assets. The yields on total average investment securities decreased 10 and 8 basis points for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2015. The decrease in yields on average total investment securities during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods in 2015, was driven by a lower allocation of the total investment securities portfolio to SBA Pool securities and tax exempt municipal securities, both of which also tend to be higher-yielding segments of the Company's investment securities portfolio. These decreases were partially offset by higher interest rates and a greater allocation of the total investment securities portfolio to higher yielding Agency CMO securities, Agency CMBS securities and taxable municipal securities.
Interest-bearing deposits
Average total interest-bearing deposit balances increased for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods in 2015, primarily due to organic deposit growth that was in part driven by the Company's marketing and advertising initiatives as well as new products and services.
Borrowings
Average total borrowings increased for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods in 2015, primarily due to the issuance of $20.0 million in senior subordinated debt in April 2015 and increased short-term borrowings. Average short-term borrowings increased for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods in 2015, due to additional short-term FHLB advances taken to fund loan growth and other strategic initiatives.
Noninterest Income
The following tables depict the components of noninterest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:
Three Months Ended June 30, (dollars in thousands) 2016 2015 Change $ Change % --------------------- ---- ---- -------- ------- Service charges and fees on deposit accounts $728 $673 $55 8.2% Other operating income 329 421 (92) -21.9% Debit card/ATM fees 448 442 6 1.4% Gain on sale of available for sale securities, net 172 26 146 561.5% (Loss) on sale of bank premises and equipment (5) (30) 25 83.3% --------------------------------------------- Total noninterest income $1,672 $1,532 $140 9.1% ====== ====== ==== === Six Months Ended June 30, (dollars in thousands) 2016 2015 Change $ Change % --------------------- ---- ---- -------- ------- Service charges and fees on deposit accounts $1,467 $1,336 $131 9.8% Other operating income 683 886 (203) -22.9% Debit card/ATM fees 845 805 40 5.0% Gain on sale of available for sale securities, net 237 51 186 364.7% (Loss) on sale of bank premises and equipment (9) (27) 18 66.7% --------------------------------------------- Total noninterest income $3,223 $3,051 $172 5.6% ====== ====== ==== ===
Key changes in the components of noninterest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods in 2015, are discussed below:
-- Service charges and fees on deposit accounts increased primarily due to increases in overdraft and NSF fees on checking accounts; -- Other operating income decreased primarily due to lower earnings from the Bank's subsidiaries. Additionally, other operating income includes earnings from the Bank's investment in Bankers Title, LLC and losses from the Bank's investment in housing equity funds; and -- Gain on sale of available for sale securities, net increased primarily as a result of the Company adjusting the composition of the investment securities portfolio as part of the Company's overall asset/liability management strategy.
Noninterest Expense
The following tables depict the components of noninterest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

Key changes in the components of noninterest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods in 2015, are discussed below:
-- Salaries and employee benefits decreased primarily due to the reduction in staff levels initiated in the second half of 2015 (which was driven by operating efficiencies identified in the aforementioned comprehensive assessment of our operations) and reduced commissions paid to employees of EVB Investments, Inc. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in group insurance expense (which was driven by an increase in claims during the second quarter of 2016), bonuses and other incentive compensation. Additionally, deferred compensation on loan originations increased for the six month period of 2016; -- FDIC expense decreased due to billing adjustments in the prior year related to the VCB acquisition; -- Collection, repossession and other real estate owned expenses increased due to increases in collection costs associated with classified assets; -- Loss on sale of other real estate owned recorded during the first six months of 2015 was primarily due to the resolution and disposition of a distressed property that was sold during that period, with minimal losses occurring during the same period in 2016; -- Merger and merger related expenses incurred during the first half of 2015 were related to the acquisition of VCB in 2014, and no similar expenses were incurred during the same period in 2016; and -- Other operating expenses decreased primarily due to lower consultant fees as the Company engaged an independent consultant to conduct a comprehensive assessment of its operations in 2015, partially offset by increased marketing and advertising expenses during the first half of 2016 due to the timing of campaigns and other initiatives.
