Net interest income was $75.7 million for the second quarter of 2018, up $2.3 million or 3.1%, from the previous quarter. Fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) net interest margin was 3.57% for the three months ended June 30, 2018, comparable to the previous quarter. The yield on average earning assets increased 7 basis points (“bps”) from the prior quarter to 3.99%, primarily reflecting higher loan yields. The cost of interest bearing liabilities increased 10 bps to 0.61% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, driven by increased short-term borrowings costs, with interest-bearing deposit costs increasing 8 bps. Average interest earning assets were up $174.2 million, or 2.1%, as compared to the prior quarter, primarily driven by a $158.3 million increase in loans.
Net interest income was $75.7 million for the second quarter of 2018, up $6.1 million, or 8.8%, from the second quarter of 2017. FTE net interest margin of 3.57% was up 13 bps from the second quarter of 2017 as the improvement in asset yields was partially offset by the increase in cost of interest bearing liabilities. Average interest earning assets were up $345.4 million, or 4.2%, from the same period in 2017, primarily driven by a $456.7 million increase in loans that was partially offset by a $107.4 million decrease in securities.
Net interest income for the first six months of 2018 was $149.2 million, up $11.1 million, or 8.0%, from the same period in 2017. FTE net interest margin of 3.57% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, was up from 3.45% for the same period in 2017 primarily due to increasing asset yields and the Company’s deposit costs remaining relatively stable. Average interest earning assets were up $300.0 million, or 3.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017, which was driven by a $419.2 million increase in loans that was partially offset by a $111.9 million decrease in securities. Interest income increased $14.2 million, or 9.4% due to the increase in earning assets combined with a 20 bp improvement in loan yields. Interest expense was up $4.1 million, or 33.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 and resulted primarily from a 13 bp increase in rates driven by higher borrowing costs and a modest 7 bp increase in the cost of deposits. The Federal Reserve began raising their target fed funds rate in December 2015 and has increased the target fed funds rate by a total of 1.75% through June 30, 2018. During this same cycle of increasing rates, the Company’s deposit rates have increased by 0.06%, resulting in a full cycle deposit beta of 3.4%. The favorable deposit beta was influenced by a favorable loan to deposit ratio and deposit mix.
Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $34.2 million, up $2.9 million, or 9.2%, from the prior quarter and up $3.9 million, or 12.7%, from the second quarter of 2017. The increase from the prior quarter was driven by higher retirement plan administration fees, ATM and debit card fees and other noninterest income that were partially offset by lower insurance and other financial services revenue during the second quarter of 2018. Retirement plan administration fees increased in the second quarter of 2018 as compared to the first quarter of 2018 due to the acquisition of Retirement Plan Services, LLC (“RPS”) in the second quarter of 2018. ATM and debit card fees increased from prior quarter due to higher number of accounts and usage. Other noninterest income increased due to higher swap fee income. The increase from the second quarter of 2017 was driven by higher retirement plan administration fees resulting from the RPS acquisition and other noninterest income due primarily to higher swap fees.
Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $65.4 million, up $6.4 million, or 10.8%, from the same period in 2017. The increase from the prior year was driven by higher retirement plan administration fees due to the acquisitions of RPS in the second quarter of 2018 and of Downeast Pension Services in the second quarter of 2017. Other noninterest income in the first half of 2018 increased compared to the same period of 2017 due primarily to higher swap fee income and non-recurring gains recognized in the first six months of 2018.
Noninterest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $64.9 million, up $0.6 million, or 1.0%, from the prior quarter and up $4.6 million, or 7.6%, from the second quarter of 2017. The increase from the prior quarter was driven by a $1.2 million increase in salaries and employee benefits primarily due to the acquisition of RPS that were partially offset by a decrease in seasonal occupancy expense. The increase from the second quarter of 2017 was driven by an increase in salaries and employee benefits expenses primarily due to the RPS acquisition, wage increases from tax reform initiatives and higher incentive compensation.
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $129.2 million, up $7.6 million, or 6.2%, from the same period in 2017. The increase from the prior year was driven by higher salaries and employee benefits and equipment expense that were partially offset by lower other noninterest expenses in the first half of 2018 as compared to the same period of 2017 due primarily to lower retirement plan costs. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was primarily due to the RPS acquisition in second quarter of 2018, the acquisition of Downeast Pension Services in the second quarter of 2017, timing of incentive compensation and wage increases from tax reform initiatives.
Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $8.1 million, up $1.1 million, or 15.7%, from the prior quarter and down $2.6 million, or 24.0%, from the second quarter of 2017. The effective tax rate of 22.4% for the second quarter of 2018 was up from 21.2% for the first quarter of 2018 and down from 33.3% for the second quarter of 2017. The increase in income tax expense from the prior quarter was due to a lower income tax benefit from equity-based transactions and higher level of taxable income. The decrease in income tax expense from the second quarter of 2017 was due to the lower effective tax rate from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act partially offset by a higher level of taxable income. Excluding the tax benefit from equity-based transactions, the effective tax rate was 22.5% for both the second quarter of 2018 and first quarter of 2018.
Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $15.1 million, down $3.9 million, or 20.3% from the same period of 2017. The effective tax rate of 21.8% for the first six months of 2018 was down from 31.3% for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in income tax expense from the prior year was due to the lower effective tax rate from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act partially offset by a higher level of taxable income and lower tax benefit from equity-based transactions. Excluding the tax benefit from equity-based transactions, the effective tax rate was 22.5% and 33.9% for the six months ending June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
