In the table above, "currently under short-term deferral" refers to loans subject to a 90-day payment deferral at December 31, 2021 and "CARES Act modification" refers to loans subject to longer-term modifications that, were it not for the provisions of the CARES Act, which expired on January 1, 2022, would likely have been reported as TDRs. Non-performing loans may include some loans that have been modified under the CARES Act. All of the loans that have rolled off of modification to date have paid off or resumed regular payments.
Non-performing loans totaled $205.9 million or 0.87% of total loans at December 31, 2021, compared to $276.7 million or 1.21% of total loans at September 30, 2021 and $244.5 million or 1.02% of total loans at December 31, 2020.

(1) ACL to total loans, excluding government insured residential loans, PPP loans and MWL, which carry nominal or no reserves, was 0.62%, 0.81% and 1.26% at December 31, 2021, September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
The ACL at December 31, 2021 represents management's estimate of lifetime expected credit losses given our assessment of historical data, current conditions and a reasonable and supportable economic forecast as of the balance sheet date. The estimate was informed by Moody's economic scenarios published in December 2021, economic information provided by additional sources, information about borrower financial condition and collateral values, data reflecting the impact of recent events on individual borrowers and other relevant information.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.2 million, which included a provision of $1.1 million related to funded loans offset by recoveries of provision related to unfunded loan commitments and accrued interest receivable. The decline in the ACL for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was primarily attributable to charge-offs, the substantial majority of which were previously reserved for.

Net interest income
Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was $206.0 million compared to $195.1 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2021 and $193.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Interest income increased by $3.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 compared to the immediately preceding quarter, and decreased by $13.2 million compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Interest expense decreased by $7.4 million compared to the immediately preceding quarter and by $25.9 million compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020.
The Company’s net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, increased by 0.11% to 2.44% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, from 2.33% for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2021. Factors impacting the net interest margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 included:
•The average rate paid on FHLB and FRB advances decreased to 1.86% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, from 2.35% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. This decrease resulted from the termination and maturity of higher cost cash flow hedges and related borrowings during the quarter ended December 31, 2021.
•The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits decreased to 0.27% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, from 0.29% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. This decline reflected continued initiatives taken to lower rates paid on deposits, including the re-pricing of term deposits, partially offset by the issuance of some callable CDs in anticipation of rising rates.
•The tax-equivalent yield on investment securities increased to 1.54% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 from 1.49% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. This increase resulted primarily from slower prepayment speeds on securities purchased at a premium.
•The tax-equivalent yield on loans increased to 3.50% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, from 3.45% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.
Non-interest income and Non-interest expense
Non-interest income totaled $45.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 compared to $25.5 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2021 and $35.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The main reason for the increase in non-interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 compared to the immediately preceding quarter was an increase in the gain on sale of loans. During the quarter, the Company sold a portfolio of single-family residential loans for a gain of $18.2 million.
Non-interest expense totaled $187.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 compared to $118.0 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2021 and $123.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Non-interest expense totaled $547.6 million and $457.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The following table details notable items that impacted non-interest expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 (in thousands):
| Discontinuance of cash flow hedges | $ | (44,833) |
|---|---|---|
| Special employee bonus | (6,809) | |
| Professional fees related to tax settlement | (4,198) | |
| Impairment of operating lease equipment | (2,813) | |
| $ | (58,653) |
•Employee compensation and benefits increased by $13.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 compared to the immediately preceding quarter. The Company paid a special bonus in the fourth quarter to substantially all of its employees, in recognition of their hard work and efforts in the challenging environment we have faced over the past two years. Employees, regardless of their position in the organization, shared equally in the bonus payout, which totaled $6.8 million. Additionally, there was an increase of $4.6 million in variable compensation accruals for both incentives and regular annual discretionary bonuses in the fourth quarter.
•Professional fees increased by $5.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 compared to the immediately preceding quarter. The increase is primarily a result of $4.2 million related to the tax settlement with the Florida Department of Revenue discussed above.
•A loss on discontinuance of cash flow hedges totaling $44.8 million resulted from the termination of $401 million notional of pay fixed interest rate swaps at a weighted average pay rate of 3.24% during the quarter ended December 31, 2021.
•Depreciation and impairment of operating lease equipment included $2.8 million resulting from impairment charges related to certain sand cars in the operating lease equipment portfolio.

Allowance for Credit Losses
CECL Methodology 10 Underlying Principles Economic Forecast Key Variables • The ACL under CECL represents management’s best estimate at the balance sheet date of expected credit losses over the life of the loan portfolio. • Required to consider historical information, current conditions and a reasonable and supportable economic forecast. • For most portfolio segments, BankUnited uses econometric models to project PD, LGD and expected losses at the loan level and aggregates those expected losses by segment. • Qualitative adjustments may be applied to the quantitative results. • Accounting standard requires an estimate of expected prepayments which may significantly impact the lifetime loss estimate. • Our ACL estimate was informed by Moody’s economic scenarios published in September 2021. • Unemployment at 3.9% for Q1 2022, steadily declining to 3.5% through end of 2022. • Annualized growth in GDP at 5.4% for Q1 2022, normalizing to an average of 3.5% • VIX trending at stabilized levels through the forecast horizon. • S&P 500 averaging 4,300 through the R&S period. • 2 year reasonable and supportable forecast period. • The models ingest numerous national, regional and MSA level economic variables and data points. Economic data and variables to which portfolio segments are most sensitive: • Commercial o Market volatility index o S&P 500 index o Unemployment rate o A variety of interest rates and spreads • CRE o Unemployment o CRE property forecast o 10-year treasury o Baa corporate yield o Real GDP growth • Residential o HPI o Unemployment rate o Real GDP growth o Freddie Mac 30-year rate
