    WOODBRIDGE, N.J., July 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NORTHFIELD BANCORP, INC. (Nasdaq:NFBK) (or the “Company”), the holding company for Northfield Bank, reported diluted earnings per common share of $0.34 and $0.64 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to $0.40 and $0.78 per diluted share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Net earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, were down from the comparative prior year periods primarily due to a benefit in the provision for credit losses on loans in the prior year. Earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, included a benefit for credit losses of $3.7 million and $6.1 million, respectively, reflecting continued improvement in the economic forecast as well as an improvement in asset quality and a decline in loan balances, as compared to a provision for credit loss of $149,000 and $552,000, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, also included a gain on sale of loans of $1.4 million, and earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2021, included approximately $1.9 million of accretable income related to the payoffs of purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans.

    Commenting on the quarter, Steven M. Klein, the Company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, “I’m pleased to announce Northfield has reported a strong quarter of financial performance. Robust loan growth at higher interest rates, maintaining our low cost of deposits, and prudently managing expenses, with a focus on maintaining strong asset quality, has and will continue to be key drivers to our long-term success.”

    Mr. Klein further noted, “I am pleased to announce that the Board of Directors has declared a cash dividend of $0.13 per common share, payable August 24, 2022, to stockholders of record on August 10, 2022.”

    Results of Operations

    Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

    Net income was $30.0 million and $38.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Significant variances from the comparable prior year period are as follows: a $1.9 million decrease in net interest income, a $6.6 million increase in the provision for credit losses on loans, a $5.1 million decrease in non-interest income, a $2.0 million decrease in non-interest expense, and a $3.1 million decrease in income tax expense.

    Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022, decreased $1.9 million, or 2.4%, to $77.0 million, from $78.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an eight basis point decrease in net interest margin to 2.95% from 3.03% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, partially offset by a $12.6 million, or 0.2%, increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was due to increases in the average balance of other securities of $155.4 million and the average balance of loans outstanding of $9.6 million, partially offset by decreases in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities of $122.6 million, the average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”) stock of $6.7 million, and the average balance of interest-earning deposits in financial institutions of $23.0 million.

    The decrease in net interest margin was primarily due to lower yields on interest-earning assets, due in part to a $2.2 million decrease in accreted interest income related to PCD loans, and a $1.7 million reduction in fees related to the forgiveness of PPP loans, partially offset by the lower cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Yields on interest-earning assets decreased 19 basis points to 3.21% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from 3.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 12 basis points to 0.36% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from 0.48% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily driven by lower cost of deposits and a change in the composition of the deposit portfolio as the average balance of transaction accounts increased and the average balance of certificates of deposit decreased. The Company accreted interest income related to PCD loans of $729,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The higher accretable PCD interest income in the prior year was primarily related to payoffs of PCD loans in the first quarter of 2021. Fees recognized from PPP loans totaled $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022, included loan prepayment income of $2.6 million as compared to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

    The provision for credit losses on loans increased by $6.6 million to a provision of $552,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a benefit of $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The prior year benefit for credit losses was primarily due to improvement in the economic forecast and an improvement in asset quality as well as a decline in loan balances. The current year provision for credit losses is due to growth in the loan portfolio and a worsening macroeconomic outlook, partially offset by an improvement in asset quality and lower net charge-offs. At June 30, 2022, management, utilizing judgement, qualitatively adjusted the forecast to account for economic uncertainty that may not be captured in the third party economic forecast scenarios utilized. Net charge-offs were $494,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to net charge-offs of $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, which related to PCD loans.

    Non-interest income decreased by $5.1 million, or 67.2%, to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, due primarily to a decrease of $3.5 million in gains on trading securities, net, a $1.4 million decrease in gains on sales of loans, and a $342,000 decrease in net realized gains on available-for-sale debt securities. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, losses on trading securities were $2.4 million, as compared to gains of $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The trading portfolio is utilized to fund the Company’s deferred compensation obligation to certain employees and directors of the Company's deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”). The participants of this Plan, at their election, defer a portion of their compensation. Gains and losses on trading securities have no effect on net income since participants benefit from, and bear the full risk of, changes in the trading securities market values. Therefore, the Company records an equal and offsetting amount in compensation expense, reflecting the change in the Company’s obligations under the Plan. The decrease in gains on sales of loans is due to a $1.4 million gain realized on the sale of approximately $126.3 million of multifamily loans in the second quarter of 2021.

    Non-interest expense decreased $2.0 million, or 5.1%, to $37.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $39.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $2.4 million decrease in employee compensation and benefits. The decrease was due to a $3.5 million decrease in the mark to market of the Company's deferred compensation plan expense, which as discussed above has no effect on net income, as well as a decrease in medical benefit costs, partially offset by an increase in salary expense related to annual merit increases and an increase in equity award expense related to new awards issued under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan ( the “2019 EIP”) in the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, occupancy expense decreased by $507,000, primarily related to lower snow removal costs, and advertising expense decreased by $312,000. Partially offsetting the decreases was an increase in professional fees of $399,000 and an increase in other expense of $812,000, primarily due to an increase in the reserve for unfunded commitments, as well as an increase in other operating expenses.

    The Company recorded income tax expense of $11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was 27.6% compared to 27.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

    Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

    Net income was $15.9 million and $19.8 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Significant variances from the comparable prior year quarter are as follows: a $1.4 million increase in net interest income, a $3.9 million increase in the provision for credit losses on loans, a $4.2 million decrease in non-interest income, a $1.2 million decrease in non-interest expense, and a $1.5 million decrease in income tax expense.

    Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, increased $1.4 million, or 3.6%, primarily due to a seven basis point increase in net interest margin to 3.03% from 2.96% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, and an increase in average interest-earning assets of $70.1 million, or 1.3%. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was primarily due to increases in the average balance of other securities of $156.4 million and the average balance of loans outstanding of $44.6 million, partially offset by decreases in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities of $68.0 million, the average balance of interest-earning deposits in financial institutions of $55.8 million, and the average balance of FHLBNY stock of $7.0 million. Partially offsetting the increase in net interest income was a $1.1 million reduction in fees related to the forgiveness of PPP loans in the current quarter as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

    The increase in net interest margin was primarily due to a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities which decreased by 12 basis points to 0.35% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from 0.47% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, driven primarily by lower cost of deposits and a change in the composition of the deposit portfolio as the average balance of transaction accounts increased and the average balance of certificates of deposit decreased. Partially offsetting this decrease was a decrease in yields on interest-earning assets which decreased by two basis points to 3.29% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from 3.31% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, included loan prepayment income of $1.5 million, as compared to $1.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The Company accreted interest income related to PCD loans of $339,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $443,000 for quarter ended June 30, 2021. Fees recognized from PPP loans totaled $432,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $1.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

    The provision for credit losses on loans increased by $3.9 million to a provision of $149,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from a benefit of $3.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The prior year benefit for credit losses was primarily due to improvement in the economic forecast and an improvement in asset quality as well as a decline in loan balances. The current quarter provision for credit losses is due to growth in the loan portfolio, higher net charge-offs, and a worsening macroeconomic outlook, partially offset by an improvement in asset quality. At June 30, 2022, management, utilizing judgement, qualitatively adjusted the forecast to account for economic uncertainty that may not be captured in the third party economic forecast scenarios utilized. Net charge-offs were $392,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to net charge-offs of $3,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

    Non-interest income decreased by $4.2 million, or 84.4%, to $765,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from $4.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to a $2.4 million decrease in gains on trading securities, net, a $1.4 million decrease in gains on sales of loans, and a $509,000 decrease in net realized gains on available-for-sale debt securities. For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, losses on trading securities, net, included losses of $1.6 million related to the Company’s trading portfolio, compared to gains of $807,000 in the comparative prior year quarter. Gains and losses on trading securities have no effect on net income since participants benefit from, and bear the full risk of, changes in the trading securities market values.

    Non-interest expense decreased by $1.2 million, or 5.8%, to $18.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from $19.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was due primarily to a $1.4 million decrease in compensation and employee benefits, attributable to a $2.4 million decrease in the mark to market of the Company's deferred compensation plan expense, which has no effect on net income, partially offset by an increase in salary expense related to annual merit increases and an increase in equity award expense related to new awards issued under the 2019 EIP in the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, occupancy expense decreased by $214,000 and advertising expense decreased by $280,000. The decreases were partially offset by increases of $397,000 in professional fees and $370,000 in other expense, primarily related to an increase in the reserve for unfunded commitments,

    The Company recorded income tax expense of $6.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to $7.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate for both quarters ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, was 27.8%.

    Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022

    Net income was $15.9 million and $14.1 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022, respectively. Significant variances from the prior quarter are as follows: a $3.2 million increase in net interest income, a $254,000 decrease in the provision for credit losses on loans, a $948,000 decrease in non-interest income, and a $771,000 increase in income tax expense.

    Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, increased by $3.2 million, or 8.7%, primarily due to a 16 basis point increase in net interest margin to 3.03% from 2.87% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and a $97.4 million, or 1.9%, increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was primarily due to increases in the average balance of loans outstanding of $144.7 million, and the average balance of other securities of $41.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities of $39.0 million interest-earning deposits in financial institutions of $48.6 million, and the average balance of FHLBNY stock of $1.5 million.

    The increase in net interest margin was primarily due to higher yields on interest-earning assets, which increased by 16 basis points to 3.29% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from 3.13% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, reflective of the rising rate environment. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by one basis point to 0.35% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from 0.36% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, included loan prepayment income of $1.5 million as compared to $1.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The Company accreted interest income related to PCD loans of $339,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $391,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Fees recognized from PPP loans totaled $432,000 and $701,000 respectively, for the quarters ended June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022.

    The provision for credit losses on loans decreased by $254,000 to a provision of $149,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from a provision of $403,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in the provision was primarily due to an improvement in asset quality, partially offset by loan growth, higher net charge-offs, and a worsening macroeconomic outlook. Net charge-offs were $392,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $102,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

    Non-interest income decreased by $948,000, or 55.3%, to $765,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, from $1.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to an increase of $761,000 in losses on trading securities, net, and a decrease of $264,000 in realized gains on available-for-sale debt securities, net. For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, losses on trading securities, net, were $1.6 million, compared to losses of $802,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

    Non-interest expense remained stable at $18.7 million for both quarters ended June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022.

    The Company recorded income tax expense of $6.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to $5.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 was 27.8%, compared to 27.4% for the quarter ended and March 31, 2022.

    Financial Condition

    Total assets increased by $216.6 million, or 4.0%, to $5.65 billion at June 30, 2022, from $5.43 billion at December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to increases in total loans of $307.6 million, or 8.1%, cash and cash equivalents of $19.2 million, or 21.0%, and other assets of $9.9 million, or 26.7%, partially offset by a decrease in available-for-sale debt securities of $121.4 million, or 10.0%.

    As of June 30, 2022, we estimate that our non-owner occupied commercial real estate concentration (as defined by regulatory guidance) to total risk-based capital was approximately 468.9%. Management believes that Northfield Bank (the “Bank”) has implemented appropriate risk management practices including risk assessments, board-approved underwriting policies and related procedures, which include monitoring Bank portfolio performance, performing market analysis (economic and real estate), and stressing of the Bank’s commercial real estate portfolio under severe, adverse economic conditions. Although management believes the Bank has implemented appropriate policies and procedures to manage its commercial real estate concentration risk, the Bank’s regulators could require it to implement additional policies and procedures or could require it to maintain higher levels of regulatory capital, which might adversely affect its loan originations, ability to pay dividends, and profitability.

    Cash and cash equivalents increased by $19.2 million, or 21.0%, to $110.2 million at June 30, 2022, from $91.1 million at December 31, 2021, primarily due to the liquidity obtained from loans and securities paydowns as well as growth in deposits. Balances fluctuate based on the timing of receipt of security and loan repayments and the redeployment of cash into higher-yielding assets such as loans and securities, or the funding of deposit outflows or borrowing maturities.

    Loans held-for-investment, net, increased by $305.2 million, or 8.0%, to $4.11 billion at June 30, 2022 from $3.81 billion at December 31, 2021. The overall increase was due to strong loan originations, and, to a lesser extent, the purchase of two one-to-four family residential loan pools of approximately $7.7 million. Multifamily loans increased $252.9 million, or 10.0%, to $2.77 billion at June 30, 2022 from $2.52 billion at December 31, 2021, commercial real estate loans increased $41.6 million, or 5.1%, to $850.2 million at June 30, 2022 from $808.6 million at December 31, 2021, home equity loans increased $27.9 million, or 25.4%, to $137.9 million at June 30, 2022 from $110.0 million at December 31, 2021, commercial and industrial loans (excluding PPP loans) increased $21.0 million, or 20.9%, to $121.5 million at June 30, 2022 from $100.5 million at December 31, 2021, and, one-to-four family residential loans increased $1.7 million, or 0.9%. The increases were partially offset by decreases in construction and land loans of $8.9 million, or 32.5%, to $18.6 million at June 30, 2022 from $27.5 million at December 31, 2021, and PPP loans of $28.6 million, or 70.5%, to $11.9 million at June 30, 2022 from $40.5 million at December 31, 2021. Through June 30, 2022, 2,307 borrowers have received PPP forgiveness payments totaling approximately $217.8 million.

    There were 24 PPP loans outstanding totaling $11.9 million at June 30, 2022, compared to 377 loans outstanding totaling $40.5 million at December 31, 2021. The PPP provides for lender processing fees that range from 1% to 5% of the final disbursement made to individual borrowers. As of June 30, 2022, we have received loan processing fees of $9.5 million, of which $8.6 million has been recognized in earnings, including $1.1 million recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The remaining unearned fees will be recognized in income over the remaining term of the loans.

    PCD loans totaled $13.1 million at June 30, 2022, and $15.8 million at December 31, 2021. Upon adoption of the CECL accounting standard on January 1, 2021, the allowance for credit losses related to PCD loans was recorded through a gross-up that increased the amortized cost-basis of PCD loans by $6.8 million with a corresponding increase to the allowance for credit losses. The decrease in the PCD loan balance at June 30, 2022 was due to PCD loans being sold and paid off during the period. The majority of the remaining PCD loan balance consists of loans acquired as part of a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-assisted transaction. The Company accreted interest income of $339,000 and $729,000 attributable to PCD loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to $443,000 and $2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The decrease in income accreted for the six months ended June 30, 2022 is due to the payoff of PCD loans in the prior year. PCD loans had an allowance for credit losses of approximately $4.2 million at June 30, 2022.
    Loan balances are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

    The geographic locations of the properties collateralizing the loans purchased in the table above are as follows: 63.3% in New York and 36.7% in New Jersey.

    The Company’s available-for-sale debt securities portfolio decreased by $121.4 million, or 10.0%, to $1.09 billion at June 30, 2022, from $1.21 billion at December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily attributable to paydowns, maturities, calls, and sales. At June 30, 2022, $821.2 million of the portfolio consisted of residential mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae. In addition, the Company held $74.8 million in U.S. Government agency securities, $190.8 million in corporate bonds, all of which were considered investment grade at June 30, 2022, and $52,000 in municipal bonds.

    Equity securities increased by $2.5 million to $7.8 million at June 30, 2022, from $5.3 million at December 31, 2021, due to an increase in our investment in a Small Business Administration Loan Fund. This investment is utilized by the Bank as part of its Community Reinvestment Act program.
      
    Total liabilities increased $241.2 million, or 5.1%, to $4.93 billion at June 30, 2022, from $4.69 billion at December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in deposits of $248.7 million, the issuance of subordinated debt, net of issuance costs, of $60.9 million, and an increase in advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance of $4.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in FHLB advances and other borrowings of $74.7 million.

    Deposits increased $248.7 million, or 6.0%, to $4.42 billion at June 30, 2022, as compared to $4.17 billion at December 31, 2021. The increase was attributable to increases of $193.0 million in transaction accounts and $140.4 million in certificates of deposit, partially offset by decreases of $16.8 million in savings accounts and $68.0 million in money market accounts.

    Deposit account balances are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

    Included in the table above are business and municipal deposit account balances as follows (dollars in thousands):

    Municipal customers$663,656 $686,425 $633,458
             

    Borrowed funds decreased to $407.9 million at June 30, 2022, from $421.8 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease in borrowings for the period was primarily attributable to a decrease in FHLB and other borrowings of $49.7 million, and a decrease in securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $25.0 million, partially offset by the issuance of $62.0 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed to floating subordinated notes (the “Notes”). The Notes are non-callable for five years, have a stated maturity of June 30, 2032, and bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.00% until June 30, 2027. From July 2027 to the maturity date or early redemption date, the interest rate will reset quarterly to a level equal to the then current three-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 200 basis points. Debt issuance costs totaled $1.1 million. Management utilizes borrowings to mitigate interest rate risk, for short-term liquidity, and to a lesser extent as part of leverage strategies.

    The following is a table of term borrowing maturities (excluding overnight borrowings and subordinated debt) and the weighted average rate by year at June 30, 2022 (dollars in thousands):

    Year Amount Weighted Average Rate
    2022 $45,000 2.05%
    2023 87,500 2.89%
    2024 50,000 2.47%
    2025 112,500 1.48%
    Thereafter 45,000 1.45%
      $340,000 2.06%


    Total stockholders’ equity decreased by $24.6 million to $715.3 million at June 30, 2022, from $739.9 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease was attributable to a $33.3 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income associated with a decline in the estimated fair value of our debt securities available-for-sale portfolio, $12.2 million in dividend payments, and $11.0 million in stock repurchases, partially offset by net income of $30.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and a $1.9 million increase in equity award activity. During the first quarter of 2022, the $54.2 million stock repurchase program that was approved in March 2021, was completed after reaching the purchase limit. On June 16, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a new $45.0 million stock repurchase program. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 739,701 shares of its common stock outstanding at an average price of $14.84 for a total of $11.0 million pursuant to the approved stock repurchase plans.

    The Company continues to maintain adequate liquidity and a strong capital position. The Company's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, corporate bonds, and unpledged mortgage-related securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, Fannie Mae, or Freddie Mac, that we can either borrow against or sell. We also have the ability to surrender bank-owned life insurance contracts. The surrender of these contracts would subject the Company to income taxes and penalties for increases in the cash surrender values over the original premium payments. We also have the ability to obtain additional funding from the FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank utilizing unencumbered and unpledged securities and multifamily loans. The Company expects to have sufficient funds available to meet current commitments in the normal course of business.

    The Company had the following primary sources of liquidity at June 30, 2022 (dollars in thousands): 

    Cash and cash equivalents(1) $92,991
    Corporate bonds $176,094
    Multifamily loans(2) $1,589,553
    Mortgage-backed securities (issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, Fannie Mae, or Freddie Mac)(2) $297,660
       

    (1) Excludes $17.2 million of cash at Northfield Bank.
    (2) Represents estimated remaining borrowing potential.        

    The Company and the Bank utilize the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (“CBLR”) framework. The CBLR replaces the risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the generally applicable capital rules. At June 30, 2022, the Company and the Bank's estimated CBLR ratios were 12.75% and 12.19%, respectively, which exceeded the minimum requirement to be considered well-capitalized of 9%.

    Asset Quality

    The following table details total non-accrual loans (excluding PCD), non-performing loans, non-performing assets, troubled debt restructurings on which interest is accruing, and accruing loans 30 to 89 days delinquent at June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

    Accruing loans 30 to 89 days delinquent$2,706  $4,084  $1,166 
                

    The increase in non-accrual loans was primarily due to one $2.2 million multifamily loan placed on non-accrual status during the current quarter. The loan is well secured with an apartment building in Brooklyn, New York, containing eight residential units and has a recent appraised value of $2.8 million.

    Other Real Estate Owned

    At June 30, 2022, the Company had no assets acquired through foreclosure. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, other real estate owned was comprised of one property located in New Jersey, which had a carrying value of approximately $100,000, and which was sold during the second quarter of 2022 for a small gain.

    Accruing Loans 30 to 89 Days Delinquent

    Loans 30 to 89 days delinquent and on accrual status totaled $2.7 million, $4.1 million, and $1.2 million at June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively. The following table sets forth delinquencies for accruing loans by type and by amount at June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 (dollars in thousands):
      

     June 30, 2022 March 31, 2022 December 31, 2021

    Other loans —  16  15
    Total delinquent accruing loans held-for-investment$2,706 $4,084 $1,166
             

    The decrease in delinquent multifamily loans is primarily due to one loan with a balance of $2.2 million that was transferred to non-accrual status in the current quarter. The loan is well secured with an apartment building in Brooklyn, New York, containing eight residential units and has a recent appraised value of $2.8 million.

    PCD Loans (Held-for-Investment)

    Under the CECL standard, the Company will continue to account for PCD loans at estimated fair value using discounted expected future cash flows deemed to be collectible on the date acquired. Based on its detailed review of PCD loans and experience in loan workouts, management believes it has a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of future cash flows and accordingly has classified PCD loans ($13.1 million at June 30, 2022 and $15.8 million at December 31, 2021) as accruing, even though they may be contractually past due. At June 30, 2022, 0.5% of PCD loans were past due 30 to 89 days, and 24.7% were past due 90 days or more, as compared to 10.5% and 19.2%, respectively, at December 31, 2021.

    Other

    During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Bank downgraded a lending relationship with an outstanding principal balance at December 31, 2021, of approximately $15.6 million to substandard, which is comprised of two commercial real estate loans with balances of $10.9 million, and a commercial line of credit secured by all unencumbered business assets with a balance of $4.7 million. All draws on the line are at the discretion of the Bank. The Bank has received paydowns of approximately $3.8 million on the commercial line of credit, reducing the outstanding balance to approximately $913,000 as of June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2022, the aggregate balances of the loans was $11.6 million.

    The commercial real estate loans are secured by two commercial properties with a current appraised value of $19.2 million. The lending relationship was downgraded as a result of legal matters against certain officers of the borrowing entities, including certain individuals who are guarantors to the loans, and the impact such legal matters may have on future operations of the entities.

    All loans under the lending relationship are current as of July 27, 2022, and the entities continue to operate. The Bank continues to evaluate the financial condition, operating results and cash flows of the related entities and guarantors. At June 30, 2022, approximately $1.4 million of the allowance for credit losses has been designated to this lending relationship. Based on information available, the loans have not been designated as impaired and remain on accrual status. However, there can be no assurances that one or more of the loans under the relationship will not migrate to non-accrual status in the future or require the establishment of additional loan losses reserves.
