For the quarter ended September�30, 2018, the Company reported net income of $97.3 million, or $0.90 per diluted share compared to $67.8 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September�30, 2017, a 45% increase in diluted earnings per share.

The annualized return on average stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was 11.80% compared to 10.21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, while the annualized return on average assets was 1.19% compared to 0.92% for the same periods.
Rajinder Singh, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Results for this quarter were marked by strong growth in both GAAP and non-loss share EPS and by continued success increasing non-interest bearing DDA balances."
Performance Highlights
- Net interest income increased by $10.7 million to $252.0 million for the quarter ended September�30, 2018 from $241.3 million for the quarter ended September�30, 2017. Interest income increased by $48.3 million, driven by increases in the average balances of loans and investment securities outstanding as well as increases in yields on interest earning assets. Interest expense increased by $37.6 million, driven primarily by increases in average interest bearing deposits and an increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net interest income increased by $43.6 million to $755.0 million from $711.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
- The net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.51% for the quarter ended September�30, 2018 compared to 3.60% for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 3.62% for the quarter ended September�30, 2017. Significant factors contributing to the decline in the net interest margin from the comparable quarter of the prior year were (i) an increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities; (ii) the impact on tax equivalent yields of the reduction in the statutory federal income tax rate; and (iii) although yields on all categories of interest earning assets increased, non-covered loans and investment securities were added to the balance sheet at yields lower than the existing yield on earning assets, which is impacted by the yield on covered loans.
- The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended September�30, 2018 totaled $1.2 million compared to $37.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. The provision for the quarter ended September�30, 2017 included $32.7 million related to taxi medallion loans.
- Non-covered loans and leases, including equipment under operating lease, grew by $211 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, non-covered loans and leases grew by $708 million.
- For the quarter ended September�30, 2018, total deposits increased by $127 million, of which $98 million was non-interest bearing demand deposits. Total deposits increased by $427 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, of which $343 million was non-interest bearing demand deposits.
- Book value per common share grew to $29.63 at September�30, 2018 from $28.32 at December�31, 2017 while tangible book value per common share increased to $28.88 from $27.59 over the same period.
- During the quarter ended September�30, 2018, the Company completed the $150 million share repurchase program authorized by its Board of Directors, repurchasing 2.4 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $96 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company repurchased approximately 3.8 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $150.0 million.
- On October 23, 2018 the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $150 million in shares of its outstanding common stock. Any repurchases will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws from time to time in open market or private transactions. The extent to which the Company repurchases shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors,�including market conditions, the Company’s capital position and amount of retained earnings, regulatory requirements and other considerations. No time limit was set for the completion of the share repurchase program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
(1) Non-loss share earnings per share is a non-GAAP measure. See section entitled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measurements to their comparable GAAP financial measurements.

Residential and other consumer loans grew by $115 million for the quarter ended September�30, 2018. Multi-family loans declined by $99 million for the quarter ended September�30, 2018, primarily due to continued run-off of the New York portfolio, which decreased by $91 million. Commercial and industrial loans, inclusive of owner occupied commercial real estate, grew by $159 million for the quarter ended September�30, 2018, driven largely by growth in the Florida portfolio. Loans and leases for the commercial lending subsidiaries increased slightly, reflecting growth of $70 million in equipment under operating lease, largely offset by a decline in balances outstanding at Pinnacle Public Finance.
Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
For the quarters ended September�30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $1.2 million and $37.9 million, respectively, substantially all of which related to non-covered loans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $13.3 million and $63.6 million, respectively, substantially all of which related to non-covered loans. The Company recorded net recoveries of $1.0 million and a provision of $32.7 million related to taxi medallion loans for the quarters ended September�30, 2018 and September�30, 2017, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the provision related to taxi medallion loans totaled $13.0 million and $49.6 million, respectively.
Significant factors impacting the decrease in the provision for loan losses related to non-covered loans for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were (i) lower loan growth; (ii) a net decrease in the provision related to certain quantitative and qualitative loss factors; (iii) a decrease in the provision related to taxi medallion loans; (iv) a decrease in the provision related to the impact of hurricanes during the third quarter of 2017; partially offset by (v) an increase in the provision related to specific reserves for loans other than taxi medallion loans.
Non-covered, non-performing loans totaled $206.1 million or 0.96% of total non-covered loans at September�30, 2018, compared to $172.0 million or 0.82% of total non-covered loans at December�31, 2017. Non-performing taxi medallion loans comprised $80.2 million or 0.37% of total non-covered loans at September�30, 2018 and $106.1 million or 0.51% of total non-covered loans at December�31, 2017. At September�30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the entire taxi medallion portfolio was on non-accrual status.
The ratios of the allowance for non-covered loan and lease losses to total non-covered loans and to non-performing, non-covered loans were 0.58% and 60.51%, respectively, at September�30, 2018, compared to 0.69% and 84.03%, at December�31, 2017. The annualized ratio of net charge-offs to average non-covered loans was 0.21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 0.38% for the year ended December�31, 2017. The annualized ratio of charge-offs of taxi medallion loans to average non-covered loans was 0.09% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 0.29% for the year ended December�31, 2017. The most significant factors impacting the decline in the ratio of the allowance for non-covered loan and lease losses to total non-covered loans were (i) a decrease in certain loss factors, (ii) a decline in total criticized, classified and impaired loans, which typically carry higher reserves on a percentage basis, as a percentage of total loans and (iii) the impact of charge-offs on the ratio.

Charge-offs related to taxi medallion loans totaled $0.7 million and $35.3 million for the quarters ended September�30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $14.2 million and $47.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The majority of charge-offs for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 related to one commercial relationship.
Deposits
At September�30, 2018, deposits totaled $22.3 billion compared to $21.9 billion at December�31, 2017. The average cost of total deposits was 1.35% for the quarter ended September�30, 2018, compared to 1.19% for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2018, and 0.87% for the quarter ended September�30, 2017. The average cost of total deposits was 1.19% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 0.80% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Net interest income
Net interest income for the quarter ended September�30, 2018 increased to $252.0 million from $241.3 million for the quarter ended September�30, 2017. Net interest income was $755.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $711.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Increases in interest income were partially offset by increases in interest expense. The increases in interest income were primarily attributable to increases in the average balances of loans and investment securities and related average yields. Interest expense increased due to increases in average interest bearing deposits and the cost of funds.
The Company’s net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.51% for the quarter ended September�30, 2018, compared to 3.62% for the quarter ended September�30, 2017. Net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.56% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 3.69% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Significant offsetting factors impacting the declines in net interest margin for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017, included:
- The tax-equivalent yield on loans increased to 5.47% and 5.39%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 5.15% for both the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017, reflecting increased yields on both non-covered and covered loans.
- The tax-equivalent yield on non-covered loans was 4.05% and 3.94%, respectively, for the quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 3.79% and 3.73% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017. The most significant factor contributing to the increased yield on non-covered loans was the impact of increases in benchmark interest rates.
- The tax-equivalent yield on covered loans increased to 79.67% and 71.46%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 56.70% and 53.54% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017, reflecting continued improvements in expected cash flows from ACI loans.
- The tax-equivalent yield on investment securities increased to 3.41% and 3.26%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 3.14% and 3.07% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017.
- Tax-equivalent yields on non-covered loans and investment securities and the net interest margin were each negatively impacted by approximately 0.08% for the quarter ended September�30, 2018 as compared to the quarter ended September�30, 2017 as a result of the reduction in the statutory federal income tax rate. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the tax rate change negatively impacted the net interest margin by approximately 0.08%.
- Growth of non-covered loans and investment securities at yields lower than the overall yield on interest earning assets, which is impacted by the yield on covered loans.
- The average rate on interest bearing liabilities increased to 1.74% and 1.57%, respectively for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018, from 1.17% and 1.08% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017, reflecting higher average rates on both interest bearing deposits and FHLB advances. Increases in the cost of interest bearing liabilities primarily reflect increases in market interest rates and extension of the duration of FHLB advances.
Non-interest income
Non-interest income totaled $38.7 million and $98.7 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $53.3 million and $111.4 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017.
The most significant factors contributing to these decreases in non-interest income included (i) decreases of $26.5 million and $26.3 million, respectively, in gain on investment securities and (ii) increases of $10.5 million and $10.7 million, respectively, in gain on sale of covered loans, inclusive of the impact of FDIC indemnification for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. During the quarter ended September�30, 2018, under the terms of the Purchase and Assumption Agreement with the FDIC, the Company sold approximately $154 million in unpaid principal balance of covered residential loans. Decreases in gain on investment securities primarily reflected gains recognized in the quarter ended September�30, 2017 from the sale of certain securities formerly covered under the Commercial Shared-Loss Agreement and originally acquired at significant discounts in the FSB Acquisition.
Non-interest expense
Non-interest expense totaled $170.8 million and $493.9 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $156.7 million and $473.7 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017. The most significant components of non-interest expense are employee compensation and benefits and amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset. Employee compensation and benefits increased by $7.3 million and $19.8 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017, mainly due to an increase in the number of employees and compensation increases.
Amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset was $48.3 million and $132.9 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $45.2 million and $135.4 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017. The amortization rate increased to 103.87% and 76.73% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 46.62% and 41.19% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017. As the expected cash flows from ACI loans have increased, expected cash flows from the FDIC indemnification asset have decreased, resulting in continued increases in the amortization rate. Although the amortization rate increased, total amortization expense declined for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to the reduction in the average balance of the indemnification asset.
Provision for income taxes
The effective income tax rate was 18.0% and 21.4% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 32.2% and 31.2% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017. These declines in the effective income tax rate were primarily attributable to the reduction of the statutory corporate federal income tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018. Additionally, the effective income tax rate differed from the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% in both periods due primarily to income not subject to tax, offset by state income taxes.
Covered loans and the FDIC indemnification asset
As the Company’s expected cash flows from ACI loans have improved since the FSB Acquisition, the Company has reclassified amounts from non-accretable difference to accretable yield, resulting in increases in the yield on covered loans. Non-accretable difference at acquisition represented the difference between the total contractual payments due and the cash flows expected to be received on ACI loans. The accretable yield on ACI loans represented the amount by which undiscounted expected future cash flows exceeded the recorded investment in the loans.
Changes in accretable yield on ACI loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December�31, 2017 were as follows (in thousands):
| Balance, December 31, 2016 | � | $ | 675,385 | |
| Reclassifications from non-accretable difference, net | 81,501 | |||
| Accretion | (301,827 | ) | ||
| Balance, December 31, 2017 | 455,059 | |||
| Reclassifications from non-accretable difference, net | 78,561 | |||
| Accretion | (249,609 | ) | ||
| Balance, September 30, 2018 | $ | 284,011 | � | |
At September�30, 2018, total future estimated amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset was approximately $82 million.
The estimates of expected cash flows from ACI loans underlying the balance of accretable yield and future estimated amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset reflected above as of September 30, 2018 were predicated on the assumption that a final sale of all of the remaining covered loans would occur in the second quarter of 2019. Based on preliminary discussions with the FDIC that have taken place subsequent to September 30, 2018, there is a reasonable possibility that a portion of these loans may be retained by the Bank and that the sale of any loans not retained may occur earlier than the second quarter of 2019. If a decision is made to retain a portion of the covered loan portfolio and the timing of sale of the remaining loans is accelerated, we expect the amount of estimated future amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset to increase and the timing of that amortization to be accelerated. Additionally, we expect that the balance of accretable yield will increase, in part due to expected collection of additional contractual interest, and that accretion will occur over a longer period of time reflective of the expected lives of the retained loans. Loss share coverage with respect to any loans retained is expected to terminate no later than May 21, 2019.
Impact of Hurricane Michael
In October, 2018, Hurricane Michael made landfall in the Florida panhandle as a category 4 hurricane, impacting some areas of Florida and the southeastern United States with significant wind damage, flooding and power outages. While the Company does not have physical operations in areas significantly impacted by the storm, some of the Company's borrowers may have been impacted. The Company is in the process of assessing the potential impact of the hurricane on the value of collateral underlying our loans and the ability of borrowers to repay their obligations to the Bank. Uncertainty remains as to the ultimate impact of the storm on the allowance for loan and lease losses.

About BankUnited,�Inc. and the FSB Acquisition
BankUnited,�Inc., with total assets of $31.5 billion at September�30, 2018, is the bank holding company of BankUnited, N.A., a national bank headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida with 86 banking centers in 15 Florida counties and 5 banking centers in the New York metropolitan area at September�30, 2018.
On May�21, 2009, BankUnited acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed all of the non-brokered deposits and substantially all other liabilities of BankUnited, FSB from the FDIC, in a transaction referred to as the FSB Acquisition. Concurrently with the FSB Acquisition, BankUnited entered into two loss sharing agreements, or the Loss Sharing Agreements, which covered certain legacy assets, including the entire legacy loan portfolio and OREO, and certain purchased investment securities.�Assets covered by the Loss Sharing Agreements are referred to as “covered assets” (or, in certain cases, “covered loans”). The Loss Sharing Agreements do not apply to subsequently purchased or originated loans or other assets.
