The provision for credit losses for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $(2.20) million compared to the $2.97 million provision for the second quarter of 2020.

In the second quarter of 2021 net recoveries were $152 thousand compared to net charge-offs of $743 thousand in the same period of 2020.
Allowance for Credit Losses
In March 2020 due to the uncertainty surrounding the global pandemic and as provided by the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act the Corporation elected to delay the implementation of the Current Expected Credit Loss accounting standard. On December 31, 2020 the Corporation adopted ASU 2016-13 (topic 326), "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" commonly referenced as the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") model.

The Corporation's allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2021, was $44.7 million compared to $23.3 million as of June 30, 2020. The increase is primarily related to the adoption of CECL. The allowance for credit losses as a percent of total loans was 1.74% as of June 30, 2021, compared to 0.84% as of June 30, 2020. The allowance as of June 30, 2021 was calculated using CECL. The allowance as of June 30, 2020 was calculated using the incurred loss method.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $10.9 and $8.8 million, respectively.

Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $28.0 million compared to $26.9 million in 2020.

Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $7.38 million versus $5.92 million for the same period in 2020. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2021 was 20.02% compared to 19.71% for same period of 2020.

(a) Tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate tangible common equity by excluding goodwill and other intangible assets from shareholder's equity.
(b) Net interest income fully tax equivalent is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate net interest income fully tax equivalent by adding back the tax equivalent factor of tax exempt income to net interest income. We calculate the tax equivalent factor of tax exempt income by dividing tax exempt income by the net of tax rate of 75%.
(c) Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate the factor by dividing average tangible common equity by average shares outstanding. We calculate average tangible common equity by excluding average intangible assets from average shareholder's equity.
