(1) Certain balance sheet amounts and related metrics have been updated to reflect the adoption of ASU 2015-03. More detail on this update is in footnote (1) on the Statements of Financial Position.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(2) Return on assets represents net earnings as a percentage of average total assets.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(3) Return on equity represents net earnings as a percentage of average total equity.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(4) Return on tangible common equity represents net earnings as a percentage of average tangible common equity. Tangible Common Equity ("TCE") is a non-GAAP measure. For corresponding reconciliation of TCE to a GAAP financial measure, see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures and Calculations of Regulatory Measures.

(1) In January 2016, we adopted ASU 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires the presentation of deferred issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability. Accordingly, we have reclassified issuance costs associated with our borrowings and certain brokered deposits, from other assets, and reflected as a reduction of borrowings and interest-bearing deposit accounts, as applicable, for each period presented to conform to the current period presentation. Related selected financial metrics included within this Financial Data Supplement have also been updated where applicable to reflect this reclassification.

(1) Certain balance sheet amounts and related metrics have been updated to reflect the adoption of ASU 2015-03. More detail on this update is in footnote (1) on the Statements of Financial Position.
(2) Average interest rate on liabilities calculated above utilizes monthly average balances. The effective interest rates for the Bank term loan for the quarters ended June 30, 2016, March 31, 2016, December 31, 2015, September 30, 2015, and June 30, 2015 were 2.51%, 2.47%, 2.26%, 2.23%, and 2.21%, respectively. The Bank term loan effective rate excludes the impact of charges incurred in connection with prepayments of the loan.
(3) Interest rate spread represents the difference between the yield on total interest-earning assets and the rate on total interest-bearing liabilities.
(4) Net interest margin represents net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.

(1) Certain balance sheet amounts and related metrics have been updated to reflect the adoption of ASU 2015-03. More detail on this update is in footnote (1) on the Statements of Financial Position.
(2) Tangible common equity ("TCE") is a non-GAAP measure. We believe TCE is a more meaningful measure of the net asset value of the Company to investors. For corresponding reconciliation of TCE to a GAAP financial measure, see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures and Calculations of Regulatory Measures.
(3) Regulatory capital metrics at June 30, 2016 are preliminary and therefore subject to change. As a new savings and loan holding company, the Company historically has not been required by regulators to disclose capital ratios prior to December 31, 2015, and therefore these ratios are non-GAAP measures. See Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures and Calculation of Regulatory Measures for components of capital ratio calculations.
(4) Total risk-based capital ratio is the ratio of total risk-based capital divided by risk-weighted assets.
(5) Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 capital divided by risk-weighted assets.
(6) Tier 1 leverage ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 capital divided by total average assets, after certain adjustments.
(7) Common equity Tier 1 capital ratio is the ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to total risk-weighted assets, each as calculated under Basel III rules. Common equity Tier 1 capital ratio (fully phased-in) is a preliminary estimate reflecting management’s interpretation of the final Basel III rules adopted in July 2013 by the Federal Reserve Board, which have not been fully implemented, and our estimate and interpretations are subject to, among other things, ongoing regulatory review and implementation guidance.
