The strong NIM expansion and NPL reduction support continued earnings momentum. Watch Q3 for NIM settling into 3.34%-3.37% range and completion of core system conversion in August, which should drive further efficiency gains. The accelerated commercial lending pipeline suggests loan growth may reaccelerate after Q2 paydowns.
