First BanCorp. reported third-quarter 2024 net income of $73.7 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, down from $75.8 million, or $0.46, in the second quarter and $82.0 million, or $0.46, a year earlier. Net interest income rose to $202.1 million, but a higher provision for credit losses of $15.2 million and non-interest expenses of $122.9 million reduced pre-tax income to $96.4 million, which matters to shareholders because it lowered reported profit per share compared with the prior quarter.
