"Arrow delivered another year of strong performance in 2019, as demonstrated by record earnings, steady growth, sustained profitability and excellent credit quality," said Arrow President and CEO Thomas J.

I am proud of our team, which remains focused on long-term planning and responsible growth."
Arrow continued its expansion into the Capital Region of New York with the opening of a Saratoga National Bank location in Rotterdam and a location in Latham to follow in 2020. Arrow continued to execute on its strategy to optimize its existing branch network. In 2019, relocations and renovations occurred for the branches in the Plattsburgh market and the Exit 18 Office in Queensbury in addition to the Upstate Agency, LLC operations center. Significant technology upgrades were implemented in the last year for online loan payments and business banking, all part of the strategy to enhance the customer experience.
The following expands on fourth quarter and 2019 results:
Cash and Stock Dividends: On December 13, 2019, the Company distributed a cash dividend of $0.26 per share. Additionally, a 3% stock dividend was distributed on September 27, 2019. This is the 11th consecutive year the Company declared a stock dividend. All prior-period per-share data have been adjusted to reflect the September 27, 2019 stock dividend.
Loan Growth: At December 31, 2019, total loan balances reached a record high of $2.4 billion, up $189.9 million, or 8.6%, from the prior-year level. The growth was spread across all three of our major loan categories: consumer, residential real estate and commercial. The consumer loan portfolio grew by $91.7 million, or 12.7%, over the balance at December 31, 2018, primarily as a result of continued strength in the indirect automobile lending program. The residential real estate loan portfolio increased $58.5 million, or 6.8%, while commercial loans, including commercial real estate, increased $39.7 million, or 6.4%, over the balances at December 31, 2018.
Deposit Growth: At December 31, 2019, total deposit balances reached $2.6 billion, up by $270.5 million, or 11.5%, from the prior-year level. Noninterest-bearing deposits grew by $12.2 million, or 2.6%, during 2019, and represented 18.5% of total deposits at year-end as compared to the prior-year level of 20.2%.
Net Interest Income: Net interest income for the year ending December 31, 2019 was $88.0 million, an increase of $4.0 million, or 4.8%, from the prior year. Continued loan growth generated $95.5 million in interest and fees on loans, an increase of 16.9% from the $81.6 million in interest and fees on loans for the year ending December 31, 2018. Interest expense for the year ending December 31, 2019 was $21.7 million. This is an increase of $9.2 million, or 73.9%, from the $12.5 million in expense for the year ending December 31, 2018. The net interest margin (NIM) was 3.05% for the year ending December 31, 2019, as compared to 3.07% for the year ended December 31, 2018. In the fourth quarter of 2019, net interest margin (NIM) was 3.06%, as compared to 3.03% for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Noninterest Income: Noninterest income was $28.6 million for the year ending December 31, 2019, a decrease of 1.4% when compared to $28.9 million for the year ending December 31, 2018. Income generated from fiduciary activities decreased by $446 thousand in 2019, or 4.8% year-over-year, yet reported a record $1.5 billion in assets under management. Insurance revenue decreased by $706 thousand from the prior year. Other noninterest income in 2019 was positively impacted by a $487 thousand increase in the gain on the sale of loans. Noninterest income represented 24.5% of total revenues in 2019 as compared to 25.6% for the year ending December 31, 2018.
Noninterest Expense: Noninterest expense for the year ending December 31, 2019 increased by $2.4 million, or 3.7%, to $67.5 million compared to $65.1 million in 2018. The largest component of noninterest expense is salaries and benefits paid to our employees, which totaled $38.4 million in 2019. Noninterest expense for the three-month period ended December 31, 2019 increased $218 thousand, or 1.3%, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.
Provision for Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes for 2019 was $9.6 million compared to $9.0 million for 2018. The effective income tax rates for 2019 and 2018 were 20.4% and 19.9%, respectively.
Asset Quality: Asset quality remained strong in 2019, as evidenced by low levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs. Net loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2019, expressed as an annualized percentage of average loans outstanding, were 0.06%. Net loan losses for the full year 2019 were 0.05% of average loans outstanding, consistent with the 2018 ratio. Nonperforming assets of $5.7 million at December 31, 2019, represented 0.18% of period-end assets, down from 0.23% at December 31, 2018.
The Company's allowance for loan losses was $21.2 million at December 31, 2019, which represented 0.89% of loans outstanding, a decrease of three basis points from the ratio of 0.92% at year-end 2018. This decrease was primarily driven by continued strong asset quality. When expressed as a percentage of nonperforming loans, the allowance for loan loss coverage ratio grew to 481.4% at year-end 2019, compared to 365.7% at year-end 2018.
Capital: Total shareholders' equity grew to a record of $301.7 million at period-end, an increase of $32.1 million, or 11.9%, above the year-end 2018 balance. The Company's regulatory capital ratios remained strong in 2019. At December 31, 2019, the Company's Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio was 12.94% and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 14.78%. The capital ratios of the Company and both its subsidiary banks continued to significantly exceed the "well capitalized" regulatory standards.

4. | Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliation: Financial Institutions often use the "efficiency ratio", a non-GAAP ratio, as a measure of expense control. We believe the efficiency ratio provides investors with information that is useful in understanding our financial performance. We define our efficiency ratio as the ratio of our noninterest expense to our net gross income (which equals our tax-equivalent net interest income plus noninterest income, as adjusted). | |||||||||||||||||||
5. | For the current quarter, all of the regulatory capital ratios in the table above, as well as the Total Risk-Weighted Assets and Common Equity Tier 1 Capital amounts listed in the table below, are estimates based on, and calculated in accordance with bank regulatory capital rules.

The December 31, 2019 CET1 ratio listed in the tables (i.e., 12.94%) exceeds the sum of the required minimum CET1 ratio plus the fully phased-in Capital Conservation Buffer (i.e., 7.00%). | |||||||||||||||||||
