(NASDAQ: BRKL) (the “Company”) today announced net income of $16.4 million, or $0.18 per basic and diluted share, and operating earnings after tax (non-GAAP) of $17.0 million, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024, compared to net income and operating earnings after tax (non-GAAP) of $14.7 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, and net income of $21.9 million, or $0.25 per basic and diluted share, and operating earnings after tax (non-GAAP) of $23.2 million, or $0.26 per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023.

I would like to recognize our bankers for their diligence in providing extraordinary service to our clients.” Mr. Perrault continued, “While the margin pressure we and the rest of the banking industry experienced in the first quarter persisted in the second quarter, this pressure decreased in intensity slightly from the prior quarter. As we enter the second half of 2024, we remain optimistic about the overall economic outlook in our markets.”

    Total deposits at June 30, 2024 increased $18.4 million to $8.7 billion from March 31, 2024, consisting of a $65.8 million increase in customer deposits partially offset by a $47.4 million decrease in brokered deposits, and increased $220.0 million from $8.5 billion at June 30, 2023, driven by growth in customer deposits.

    Total borrowed funds at June 30, 2024 increased $67.6 million to $1.4 billion from March 31, 2024, and increased $203.2 million from $1.2 billion at June 30, 2023.

    NET INTEREST INCOME

    Net interest income decreased $1.6 million to $80.0 million during the second quarter of 2024 from $81.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The net interest margin decreased 6 basis points to 3.00 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from 3.06 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily driven by the reversal of interest relating to new nonaccrual loans and higher funding costs.

    NON-INTEREST INCOME

    Total non-interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 increased $0.1 million to $6.4 million from $6.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

    PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES

    The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $5.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to $7.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in provision was largely driven by the stabilization of credit conditions.

    Total net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2024 were $8.4 million, compared to $8.8 million in the first quarter of 2024. The $8.4 million in net charge-offs were largely driven by $3.9 million in commercial real estate loans and $4.3 million in equipment financing. The majority of net charge-offs were previously reserved for. The ratio of net loan and lease charge-offs to average loans and leases on an annualized basis decreased to 35 basis points for the second quarter of 2024 from 36 basis points for the first quarter of 2024.

    The allowance for loan and lease losses represented 1.25 percent of total loans and leases at June 30, 2024, compared to 1.24 percent at March 31, 2024, and 1.35 percent at June 30, 2023.

    ASSET QUALITY

    The ratio of nonperforming loans and leases to total loans and leases was 0.62 percent at June 30, 2024, an increase from 0.42 percent at March 31, 2024. Total nonaccrual loans and leases increased $20.0 million to $60.7 million at June 30, 2024 from $40.7 million at March 31, 2024. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.54 percent at June 30, 2024, an increase from 0.37 percent at March 31, 2024. Total nonperforming assets increased $20.2 million to $62.7 million at June 30, 2024 from $42.5 million at March 31, 2024.

    NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

    Non-interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 decreased $1.8 million to $59.2 million from $61.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by decreases of $1.9 million in compensation and employee benefits expense and $0.3 million in equipment and data processing expense, partially offset by a $0.8 million non-recurring restructuring charge due to the exit of the specialty vehicle business at Eastern Funding LLC.

    PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

    The effective tax rate was 24.4 percent and 24.5 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 24.7 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 21.4 percent and 19.4 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

    RETURNS ON AVERAGE ASSETS AND AVERAGE EQUITY

    The annualized return on average assets increased to 0.57 percent during the second quarter 2024 from 0.51 percent for the first quarter of 2024.

    The annualized return on average stockholders' equity increased to 5.49 percent during the second quarter of 2024 from 4.88 percent for the first quarter of 2024.

We may also make forward-looking statements in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), in our annual reports to shareholders, in press releases and other written materials, and in oral statements made by our officers, directors or employees. You can identify forward looking statements by the use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “assume,” “outlook,” “will,” “should,” and other expressions that predict or indicate future events and trends and which do not relate to historical matters, including statements regarding the Company’s business, credit quality, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. Forward-looking statements may differ, possibly materially, from what is included in this press release due to factors and future developments that are uncertain and beyond the scope of the Company’s control. These include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates; general economic conditions (including inflation and concerns about liquidity) on a national basis or in the local markets in which the Company operates; turbulence in the capital and debt markets; competitive pressures from other financial institutions; changes in consumer behavior due to changing political, business and economic conditions, or legislative or regulatory initiatives; changes in the value of securities and other assets in the Company’s investment portfolio; increases in loan and lease default and charge-off rates; the adequacy of allowances for loan and lease losses; decreases in deposit levels that necessitate increases in borrowing to fund loans and investments; operational risks including, but not limited to, cybersecurity incidents, fraud, natural disasters, and future pandemics; changes in regulation; the possibility that future credit losses may be higher than currently expected due to changes in economic assumptions and adverse economic developments; the risk that goodwill and intangibles recorded in the Company’s financial statements will become impaired; and changes in assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties which are difficult to predict. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of, among others, the risks outlined in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated by its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings submitted to the SEC. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made.
