2nd Quarter 2023 vs 2nd Quarter 2022

Net Interest Income:

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $18.6 million compared to $17.6 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $1.0 million, or 5.4%, due primarily to increases of $8.4 million in interest income on loans, including fees, and $0.8 million in interest and dividend income on taxable securities, offset by increases of $7.7 million in interest expense on deposits, and $0.6 million in interest expense on borrowed funds.

The increase in interest income on loans, including fees was due primarily to a 119 basis points increase in the average yield on loans, primarily reflecting an increase in the interest rates in the commercial portfolio, when compared to the same period in the prior year, and a $292.4 million increase in average loan balances, representing increases across all loan categories, when compared to the same period in the prior year.

The increase in interest and dividend income on taxable securities when compared to the same period in the prior year, was due to a 61 basis points increase in the average yield on securities, due to an increase in average interest rates, despite a decrease of $71.8 million in the average balance of taxable securities, when compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to paydowns on certain securities held in the portfolio between the second quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2023.

The increase in interest expense on deposits was due primarily to a 180 basis points increase in average rates paid on interest-bearing deposits, which included brokered deposits, a shift in the deposit mix towards interest-bearing accounts, and a deposit campaign in the second quarter of 2023, when compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in interest expense on borrowed funds was due primarily to an increase in interest rates and a $27.2 million increase in the average balance of overnight FHLBNY borrowings in the current quarter, when compared to the same period in the prior year.

Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 2.87% for the second quarter 2023, compared to 2.97% for the same period in the prior year. Average interest-earning assets increased $214.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 117 basis points to 4.29%, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 187 basis points to 2.11%, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, when compared to the same period in the prior year, due to the rising interest rate environment, as well as a shift in the overall deposit mix to higher cost deposits when compared to the same period in the prior year.

Provision for credit losses increased $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2023, when compared to the second quarter of 2022. This was primarily due to the release of a $1.2 million portion of the COVID-19 specific reserve, the release of a specific reserve held on a sold commercial real estate loan, the upgrades of two large commercial credits, and the roll-off of a large commercial loan charge off from the historical loss factors, in the second quarter of 2022.

Non-Interest Income:

Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2023 was $5.4 million compared to $5.3 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.1 million, or 2.4%. The increase in the current quarter was due primarily to an increase of $0.1 million in the change in fair value of equity investments, due to an improvement in equity markets benefiting the Corporation's deferred compensation plan, during the current quarter, compared to the same period in the prior year. Remaining components of non-interest income were relatively consistent when compared to the same period in the prior year.

Non-Interest Expense:

Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2023 was $15.9 million compared to $14.3 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $1.6 million, or 11.0%. The increase can be mostly attributed to increases of $0.6 million in salaries and wages, $0.3 million in FDIC insurance, $0.3 million in other non-interest expense, and $0.2 million in other components of net periodic pension benefits.

The increase in salaries and wages was primarily attributed to base salary increases and an increase in the market value of the assets held related to the Corporation's deferred compensation plan, when compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in FDIC insurance was primarily due to an increase in the assessment rate effective January 1, 2023. The increase in other non-interest expense was primarily attributable to the recapture of $0.2 million of accrued expenses related to a telecom contract dispute in the second quarter of 2022. The increase in other components of net periodic pension cost (benefits) was primarily due to actuarial adjustments related to the Corporation's pension plans.

Income Tax Expense:

Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2023 was $1.6 million compared to $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2022. The effective tax rate for the current quarter decreased to 20.4% from 22.6% for the same period in the prior year.

2nd Quarter 2023 vs 1st Quarter 2023

Net Interest Income:

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $18.6 million compared to $19.9 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 6.5%, due primarily to increases of $3.1 million in interest expense on deposits, offset by an increase of $1.5 million in interest income on loans, including fees, and a decrease of $0.2 million in interest expense on borrowed funds.

The increase in interest expense on deposits was due primarily to a 67 basis points increase in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, which included brokered deposits, when compared to the prior quarter, a continued shift towards interest-bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits, and intensifying competitive pressures across the industry to attract and retain deposits.

The increase in interest income on loans, including fees was due primarily to a $30.9 million increase in average loan balances, concentrated in the commercial loan portfolio, when compared to the prior quarter, and a 19 basis points increase in the average yield on loans, reflecting increases across all loan categories due to an increase in interest rates, when compared to the prior quarter. The decrease in interest expense on borrowed funds was due primarily to a $16.7 million decrease in the average balance of FHLBNY borrowings due to a shift towards comparatively lower cost brokered deposits, which was partially offset by a 26 basis points increase in average rates paid on overnight FHLBNY borrowings in the current quarter, when compared to the prior quarter.

Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 2.87% in the current quarter compared to 3.14% in the prior quarter. Average interest-earning assets increased $17.2 million in the current quarter when compared to the prior quarter. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 17 basis points to 4.29%, compared to the prior quarter. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 62 basis points to 2.11%, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the prior quarter, due to the rising interest rate environment, and a shift in the deposit base towards higher cost interest-bearing deposits.

Non-Interest Income:

Non-interest income was $5.4 million for the second and first quarters of 2023. Increases of $0.1 million in interchange revenue from debit card transactions and other non-interest income were offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in the change in fair value of equity investments, predominantly due to a decrease in the market value of a particular asset held by the Corporation.

Non-Interest Expense:

Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2023 was $15.9 million, compared to $15.8 million for the prior quarter, an increase of $0.1 million, or 0.5%. The increase can be primarily attributed to increases of $0.2 million in professional services, $0.1 million in pension and other employee benefits, and $0.1 million in data processing, offset primarily by decreases of $0.2 million in marketing and advertising and $0.2 million in other non-interest expense.

The increase in professional services was primarily attributed to the timing and breadth of services rendered, when compared to the prior quarter. The increase in pension and other employee benefits was primarily due to an increase in healthcare related costs, when compared to the prior quarter. The increase in data processing was attributable to expenditures relating to ongoing cybersecurity improvement initiatives and increased software expenses. The decrease in marketing and advertising was due to seasonal advertising initiatives during the first quarter, which were not replicated in the second quarter, and expenses relating to the expansion of the reach of digital ads in the first quarter. The decrease in other non-interest expense was due to a decrease in recruitment expenditures, along with smaller decreases across a range of other categories.

Income Tax Expense:

Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2023 was $1.6 million compared to $2.0 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $0.4 million. The effective tax rate for the current quarter decreased to 20.4% from 21.5% in the prior quarter.

Asset Quality

Non-performing loans totaled $7.3 million at June 30, 2023, or 0.39% of total loans, compared to $8.2 million, or 0.45% of total loans at December 31, 2022. The improvement in non-performing loans to total loans was the result of both an increase in total loans, and a decrease in non-performing loans. The decrease in non-performing loans was primarily attributable to paydowns among commercial non-performing loans. Non-performing assets, which are comprised of non- performing loans and other real estate owned, were $7.5 million, or 0.28% of total assets, at June 30, 2023, compared to $8.4 million, or 0.32% of total assets, at December 31, 2022. The decrease in non-performing assets can be primarily attributed to the decrease in non-performing loans.

Management performs an ongoing assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses based on its current expected credit losses (CECL) methodology, which includes loans individually analyzed, as well as loans analyzed on a pooled basis. The Corporation's methodology seeks to estimate the lifetime losses in its loan portfolio by utilizing an expected discounted cash flow approach. Based on Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) forecasted data points, the model is supplemented by qualitative considerations including relevant economic influences, portfolio concentrations, and other external factors. The Corporation adopted the CECL accounting standard on January 1, 2023.

The allowance for credit losses was $20.2 million at June 30, 2023 and $19.7 million at December 31, 2022, respectively. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments, a component of other liabilities, was $1.0 million at June 30, 2023. The increase in the allowance for credit losses can mostly be attributed to the $0.4 million adjustment made upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), and additional provisioning related to increased loan volume. There were no adjustments to the qualitative factor considerations between January 1, 2023 and June 30, 2023. These increases were offset by decreased allowance requirements forecasted by the model due to more favorable economic projections, notably a decrease in the FOMC's forecasted U.S. unemployment rate for year-end 2023 from 4.6% to 4.1%. As of January 1, 2023, the Corporation recognized a $1.5 million one-time implementation adjustment, of which $1.1 million reflected the addition of an allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments.

The allowance for credit losses was 276.17% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2023, and the ratio of the allowance for credit losses to loans was 1.07% at June 30, 2023. The allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 240.39% at December 31, 2022, and the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.07% at December 31, 2022.

Balance Sheet Activity

Total assets were $2.675 billion at June 30, 2023 compared to $2.646 billion at December 31, 2022, an increase of $29.1 million, or 1.1%. The increase can be mostly attributed to increases of $64.5 million in loans, net of deferred origination fees and costs, offset by decreases of $28.3 million in securities available for sale, at estimated fair value, $1.9 million in FRB and FHLB stock, at cost, $1.6 million in total cash and cash equivalents, and an increase of $0.5 million in allowance for credit losses.

The increase in loans, net of deferred loan fees, was concentrated in the commercial loan portfolio, which increased $53.1 million. Consumer loans were buoyed by continued demand for indirect auto lending, which increased $8.7 million. Consumer loans other than indirect auto increased $3.3 million, while residential mortgages decreased by $0.6 million, due to lower demand and certain residential mortgage loans being sold into the secondary market. The decrease in securities available for sale was primarily due to $30.6 million in paydowns and maturities, offset by an increase in the fair value of the portfolio of $0.7 million. The decrease in FRB and FHLB stock, at cost was attributable to lower holding requirements on FHLB stock due to lower FHLBNY overnight borrowing activity. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to changes in deposits and loan production. The increase in the allowance for credit losses can mostly be attributed to the adoption of CECL and additional provisioning related to increased loan volume.

Total liabilities were $2.497 billion at June 30, 2023 compared to $2.479 billion at December 31, 2022, an increase of $18.1 million, or 0.7%. The increase in total liabilities can primarily be attributed to increases of $63.0 million in deposits, offset by a decrease of $45.1 million in overnight advances.

The increase in deposits was due primarily to increases of $112.0 million in brokered deposits, $31.1 million in time deposits, and $1.8 million in interest bearing DDAs, offset by decreases of $61.8 million in non-interest bearing DDAs, $10.8 million in money market accounts, and $9.3 million in savings accounts. Total deposits were comprised of 28.1% non- interest bearing deposits and 71.9% interest bearing deposits as of June 30, 2023, and were comprised of 31.5% non- interest bearing deposits and 68.5% interest bearing deposits as of December 31, 2022. The aggregate amount of the Corporation's outstanding uninsured deposits (net of deposits pledged to secure municipal deposits), was 20.6% and 23.5% of total deposits, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The decrease in advances and other debt was due to a $45.1 million decrease in overnight FHLBNY borrowings, as brokered deposits replaced overnight borrowings as a primary tool utilized to fund asset growth.

Total shareholders’ equity was $177.4 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $166.4 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $11.0 million, or 6.6%, primarily due to an increase of $9.6 million in retained earnings, and a decrease of $0.5 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The increase in retained earnings was due primarily to net income of $13.6 million, offset by $1.5 million in dividends declared, and a $1.5 million one-time adjustment due to the implementation CECL. The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss was primarily due to an increase in the fair market value of the securities portfolio during the period.

The total equity to total assets ratio was 6.63% at June 30, 2023, compared to 6.29% at December 31, 2022. The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 5.87% at June 30, 2023 compared to 5.51% at December 31, 2022⁽¹⁾. Book value per share increased to $37.49 at June 30, 2023 from $35.32 at December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, the Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of those required to be considered well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Liquidity

Management believes that the Corporation has the necessary liquidity to provide flexibility in meeting its various business needs. The Corporation uses a variety of resources to manage its liquidity. These include short term investments, cash flow from lending and investing activities, core-deposit growth and non-core funding sources, such as time deposits of $250,000 or more, brokered deposits, and FHLBNY advances. As of June 30, 2023, the Corporation's cash and cash equivalents balance was $54.2 million. The Corporation also maintains an investment portfolio of securities available for sale, comprised primarily of US Government treasury securities, Small Business Administration loan pools, mortgage-backed securities, and municipal bonds. Although this portfolio generates interest income for the Corporation, it also serves as an available source of liquidity and capital if the need should arise. As of June 30, 2023, the Corporation's investment in securities available for sale was $604.3 million, $298.2 million of which was not pledged as collateral. Additionally, as of June 30, 2023, the Bank's overnight advance line capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York was $244.7 million, of which $50.8 million was utilized. As of June 30, 2023, the Bank's unused borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York was $193.9 million. Additional funding was available to the Corporation through the Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) and Discount Window Lending provided by the Federal Reserve. The Corporation did not utilize these funding sources during the first or second quarters of 2023. Uninsured deposits totaled $483.1 million as of June 30, 2023 and $548.0 million as of December 31, 2023. Due to their nature, the Corporation considers uninsured deposits to be less sticky than insured deposits, and closely monitors their level when considering liquidity management strategic decisions.

The Corporation also considers brokered deposits to be an element of its deposit strategy. As of June 30, 2023, the Corporation has entered into brokered deposit arrangements with 4-week, 13-week, and 26-week terms totaling $185.5 million.

The table below summarizes the Corporation’s additional funding resources by type as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)

The Corporation prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP. See the Corporation’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets and statements of income contained within this press release. That presentation provides the reader with an understanding of the Corporation’s results that can be tracked consistently from period-to-period and enables a comparison of the Corporation’s performance with other companies’ GAAP financial statements.

In addition to analyzing the Corporation’s results on a reported basis, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, because it believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information to investors about the underlying operational performance and trends of the Corporation and, therefore, facilitate a comparison of the Corporation with the performance of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The SEC has adopted Regulation G, which applies to all public disclosures, including earnings releases, made by registered companies that contain “non-GAAP financial measures.” Under Regulation G, companies making public disclosures containing non-GAAP financial measures must also disclose, along with each non-GAAP financial measure, certain additional information, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure and a statement of the Corporation’s reasons for utilizing the non-GAAP financial measure as part of its financial disclosures. The SEC has exempted from the definition of “non-GAAP financial measures” certain commonly used financial measures that are not based on GAAP. When these exempted measures are included in public disclosures, supplemental information is not required. The following measures used in this Report, which are commonly utilized by financial institutions, have not been specifically exempted by the SEC and may constitute "non-GAAP financial measures" within the meaning of the SEC's rules, although we are unable to state with certainty that the SEC would so regard them.

Fully Taxable Equivalent Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income is commonly presented on a tax-equivalent basis. That is, to the extent that some component of the institution's net interest income, which is presented on a before-tax basis, is exempt from taxation (e.g., is received by the institution as a result of its holdings of state or municipal obligations), an amount equal to the tax benefit derived from that component is added to the actual before-tax net interest income total. This adjustment is considered helpful in comparing one financial institution's net interest income to that of other institutions or in analyzing any institution’s net interest income trend line over time, to correct any analytical distortion that might otherwise arise from the fact that financial institutions vary widely in the proportions of their portfolios that are invested in tax-exempt securities, and that even a single institution may significantly alter over time the proportion of its own portfolio that is invested in tax-exempt obligations. Moreover, net interest income is itself a component of a second financial measure commonly used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net interest income to average interest-earning assets. For purposes of this measure as well, fully taxable equivalent net interest income is generally used by financial institutions, as opposed to actual net interest income, again to provide a better basis of comparison from institution to institution and to better demonstrate a single institution’s performance over time. The Corporation follows these practices.

Efficiency Ratio

The unadjusted efficiency ratio is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and non-interest income). The adjusted efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure which represents the Corporation’s ability to turn resources into revenue and is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (fully taxable equivalent net interest income and non- interest income), adjusted for one-time occurrences and amortization. This measure is meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s productivity measured by the amount of revenue generated for each dollar spent.

Tangible equity, tangible assets, and tangible book value per share are each non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible equity represents the Corporation’s stockholders’ equity, less goodwill and intangible assets. Tangible assets represents the Corporation’s total assets, less goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value per share represents the Corporation’s tangible equity divided by common shares at period-end. These measures are meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s use of equity.

Tangible Equity (Average)

Average tangible equity and return on average tangible equity are each non-GAAP financial measures. Average tangible equity represents the Corporation’s average stockholders’ equity, less average goodwill and intangible assets for the period. Return on average tangible equity measures the Corporation’s earnings as a percentage of average tangible equity. These measures are meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s use of equity.

Adjustments for Certain Items of Income or Expense

In addition to disclosures of certain GAAP financial measures, including net income, EPS, ROA, and ROE, we may also provide comparative disclosures that adjust these GAAP financial measures for a particular period by removing from the calculation thereof the impact of certain transactions or other material items of income or expense occurring during the period, including certain nonrecurring items. The Corporation believes that the resulting non-GAAP financial measures may improve an understanding of its results of operations by separating out any such transactions or items that may have had a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the Corporation’s financial results during the particular period in question. In the Corporation’s presentation of any such non-GAAP (adjusted) financial measures not specifically discussed in the preceding paragraphs, the Corporation supplies the supplemental financial information and explanations required under Regulation G.
