"Overall, 2018 was another good year for Fulton as we continued to execute on our growth strategies and benefited from multiple interest rate hikes from the Federal Reserve which translated into record levels of revenue and earnings," said E. Philip Wenger, Chairman and CEO. "I'm extremely proud of our team's hard work this year, and continued focus on driving shareholder value. We look forward to 2019 and believe we are well-positioned for an even better year."

Net Interest Income and Margin

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2018 increased $2.8 million, or 1.8%, from the third quarter of 2018 and net interest margin increased two basis points, to 3.44%. The average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities each increased nine basis points. The nine basis point increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets was primarily due to a ten basis point increase in loan yields. The nine basis point increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities reflected an 11 basis point increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, net interest income increased $55.1 million, or 9.6%, from 2017. Net interest margin increased 12 basis points, to 3.40%. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 29 basis points and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 22 basis points from 2017.

Balance Sheet

Total average assets for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $20.5 billion, an increase of $238.9 million from the third quarter of 2018. Average loans, net of unearned income, increased $103.5 million, or 0.7%, in comparison to the third quarter of 2018. Average loans and yields, by type, for the fourth quarter of 2018 in comparison to the third quarter of 2018 are summarized in the following table:

For the year ended December 31, 2018, average deposits increased $351.4 million, or 2.3%, compared to 2017. Ending deposits at December 31, 2018 increased $127.1 million, or 0.8%, compared to September 30, 2018 and increased $578.6 million, or 3.7%, compared to December 31, 2017.

Asset Quality

Non-performing assets were $150.2 million, or 0.73% of total assets, at December 31, 2018, compared to $130.8 million, or 0.64% of total assets, at September 30, 2018 and $144.6 million, or 0.72% of total assets, at December 31, 2017.

Annualized net charge-offs for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 were 0.17% of total average loans compared to 0.08% for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of non-performing loans was 121% at December 31, 2018, as compared to 140% at September 30, 2018 and 131% at December 31, 2017.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Corporation recorded an $8.2 million provision for credit losses, compared to a $1.6 million provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2018. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the provision for credit losses was $46.9 million, an increase of $23.6 million from 2017.

The increases in non-performing loans and the provision for credit losses during the fourth quarter of 2018 were primarily the result of a single relationship, including commercial loans and leases.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income in the fourth quarter of 2018, excluding investment securities gains, decreased $1.5 million, or 2.9%, in comparison to the third quarter of 2018. This decline was due primarily to decreases in commercial loan interest rate swap fees and merchant fees. The decline was partially offset by gains in investment management and trust services income and small business administration (SBA) lending income.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, non-interest income, excluding investment securities gains, decreased $3.4 million, or 1.7%, primarily due to a $5.1 million net gain recognized upon the settlement of litigation in 2017 and decreases in commercial loan interest rate swap fees, overdraft fees, SBA lending income and mortgage banking income, which included a $1.3 million mortgage servicing rights valuation allowance reversal in 2017. Partially offsetting these decreases were increases in investment management and trust services income, merchant fees, and credit and debit card income.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense increased $5.3 million, or 3.9%, in the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to the third quarter of 2018. Amortization of tax credit investments increased $4.9 million, due to the amortization of a tax credit investment that generated a corresponding credit to income taxes in the quarter. The $2.4 million increase in other expenses, due primarily to branch consolidation costs and other real estate owned expense, was partially offset by a decrease in marketing expense.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, non-interest expense increased $20.5 million, or 3.9%, compared to 2017. This increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, other outside services, data processing and software, net occupancy expense and professional fees.

Income Tax Expense

The effective income tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2018 was 8.6%, as compared to 11.5% for the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in the effective income tax rate resulted mainly from the aforementioned tax credit and lower income before income taxes.

The effective income tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2018 was 10.5% compared to 26.7% in 2017, due primarily to the new federal corporate income tax rate, which became effective January 1, 2018.

Explanatory note:

This press release contains supplemental financial information, as detailed below, which has been derived by methods other than Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The Corporation has presented these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Corporation's results of operations. Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with how the Corporation evaluates its performance internally and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Corporation's industry. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, are also useful to investors to evaluate the Corporation's results. Investors should recognize that the Corporation's presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures, and the Corporation strongly encourages a review of its condensed consolidated financial statements in their entirety. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure follow:
