1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accounting and reporting policies of The First of Long Island Corporation reflect banking industry practice and conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates, such as the allowance for loan losses, and assumptions that affect the reported asset and liability balances and revenue and expense amounts and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The First of Long Island Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island. The Bank has two wholly owned subsidiaries: The First of Long Island Agency, Inc., a licensed insurance agency under the laws of the State of New York; and, FNY Service Corp., an investment company. The Bank and FNY Service Corp. jointly own another subsidiary, The First of Long Island REIT, Inc., a real estate investment trust. The consolidated entity is referred to as the “Corporation” and the Bank and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Bank.” All intercompany balances and amounts have been eliminated. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The consolidated financial information included herein as of and for the periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 is unaudited. However, such information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods. The December 31, 2012 consolidated balance sheet was derived from the Corporation's December 31, 2012 audited consolidated financial statements. When appropriate, items in the prior year financial statements are reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

2 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income includes net income and other comprehensive income or loss. Other comprehensive income or loss includes revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income or loss for the Corporation consists of unrealized holding gains or losses on available-for-sale securities and changes in the funded status of the Bank’s defined benefit pension plan. Accumulated other comprehensive income is recognized as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

The components of other comprehensive income (loss) and the related tax effects are as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2013			2012
	(in thousands)
Unrealized holding gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities:

		163			172
Tax effect		65			69
		98			103

Other comprehensive income (loss)	$	(4,366	)	$	651

(1) Reclassification adjustment represents net realized gains or losses arising from the sale of available-for-sale securities. These net realized gains or losses are included in the consolidated statements of income in line item, “Net gains on sales of securities.” The income tax expense (benefit) related to these net realized gains or losses was $(5,000) and $43,000 for the first three months of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included in the consolidated statements of income in line item, “Income tax expense.”

(2) Represents the amortization into expense of prior service cost and net actuarial loss relating to the Corporation’s defined benefit pension plan. These items are included in net periodic pension cost (see Note 6) and in the consolidated statements of income in line item, “Employee benefits.” The income tax expense relating to these costs was $65,000 and $69,000 for the first three months of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included in the consolidated statements of income in line item, “Income tax expense.”

Because the unrealized losses reflected in the preceding tables are deemed by management to be attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit losses, and because management does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before their anticipated recovery, the Bank does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2013.

Sales of Available-for-Sale Securities. Sales of available-for-sale securities were as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2013			2012
	(in thousands)
Proceeds	$	1,376		$	5,108

Gross gains	$	36		$	108
Gross losses		(49	)		-
Net gain (loss)	$	(13	)	$	108

The income tax expense (benefit) related to these net realized gains or losses was $(5,000) and $43,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Sales of Held-to-Maturity Securities. During the first quarter of 2013, the Bank sold municipal securities of two issuers that were classified as held-to-maturity securities. These sales were in response to a significant deterioration in the creditworthiness of the issuers. The securities sold had a carrying value of $705,000 at the time of sale and the Bank realized a gain upon sale of $17,000.

Table of Contents

Maturities. The following table sets forth by maturity the amortized cost and fair value of the Bank’s state and municipal securities at March 31, 2013 based on the earlier of their stated maturity or, if applicable, their pre-refunded date. The remaining securities in the Bank’s investment securities portfolio are mortgage-backed securities, consisting of pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. Although these securities are expected to have substantial periodic repayments they are reflected in the table below in aggregate amounts.

	Amortized Cost		Fair Value

Troubled Debt Restructurings. A restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring when the restructuring includes a concession by the Bank and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. The Bank performs the evaluation under its internal underwriting policy.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Bank did not modify any loans in troubled debt restructurings. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Bank had allowance for loan losses of $673,000 and $481,000, respectively, allocated to specific troubled debt restructurings. The Bank had no commitments to lend additional amounts to loans that were classified as troubled debt restructurings.

There were no payment defaults during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 on loans modified in troubled debt restructurings during the twelve-month period prior to default. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms.

Risk Characteristics. Credit risk within the Bank’s loan portfolio primarily stems from factors such as borrower size, geographic concentration, industry concentration, real estate values, local and national economic conditions and environmental impairment of properties securing mortgage loans. The Bank’s commercial loans, including those secured by mortgages, are primarily made to small and medium-sized businesses. Such loans sometimes involve a higher degree of risk than those to larger companies because such businesses may have shorter operating histories, higher debt-to-equity ratios and may lack sophistication in internal record keeping and financial and operational controls. In addition, most of the Bank’s loans are made to businesses and consumers on Long Island and in the boroughs of New York City, and a large percentage of these loans are mortgage loans secured by properties located in those areas. The primary source of repayment for multifamily loans is cash flows from the underlying properties which are dependent on the strength of the local economy.

Table of Contents

Credit Quality Indicators. The Corporation categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the borrower’s ability to service their debt including, but not limited to, current financial information for the borrower and any guarantors, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public records and current economic trends.

Commercial and industrial loans and commercial mortgage loans are risk rated utilizing a ten point rating system. The risk ratings along with their definitions are as follows:

1 – 2	Cash flow is of high quality and stable. Borrower has very good liquidity and ready access to traditional sources of credit. This category also includes loans to borrowers secured by cash and/or marketable securities within approved margin requirements.
3 – 4	Cash flow quality is strong, but shows some variability. Borrower has good liquidity and asset quality. Borrower has access to traditional sources of credit with minimal restrictions.
5 – 6	Cash flow quality is acceptable but shows some variability. Liquidity varies with operating cycle and assets provide an adequate margin of protection. Borrower has access to traditional sources of credit, but generally on a secured basis.
7	Watch - Cash flow has a high degree of variability and subject to economic downturns. Liquidity is strained and the ability of the borrower to access traditional sources of credit is diminished.
8	Special Mention - The borrower has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or in the Bank’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Bank to risk sufficient to warrant adverse classification.
9	Substandard - Loans are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
10	Doubtful - Loans have all the inherent weaknesses of those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Risk ratings on commercial and industrial loans and commercial mortgages are initially assigned by the lending officer together with any necessary approval authority. The ratings are periodically reviewed and evaluated through one or more of the following: (1) borrower contact; (2) credit department review; and (3) independent loan review. All commercial and industrial loans and commercial mortgages over $750,000 are generally reviewed by the credit department no less often than annually. The frequency of the review of other loans is determined by the Bank’s ongoing assessments of the borrower’s condition.

Residential mortgage loans, revolving home equity lines and other consumer loans are risk rated utilizing a three point rating system. Loans in these categories that are on management’s watch list or have been criticized or classified by management are assigned the highest risk rating. All of these loans are risk rated based on credit scores. A credit score is a tool used in the Bank’s loan approval process, and a minimum score of 680 is generally required for new loans. Credit scores for each borrower are updated at least annually. The risk ratings along with their definitions are as follows:

Internally Assigned Risk Rating
1	Credit score is equal to or greater than 680.
2	Credit score is 635 to 679.
3	Credit score is below 635 or the loan has been classified, criticized or placed on watch.

The following tables present the recorded investment in commercial and industrial loans and commercial real estate loans by class of loans and risk rating.

Deposit account overdrafts were $149,000 and $632,000 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Overdrafts are not assigned a risk-rating and are therefore excluded from consumer loans in the above tables.

Real Estate Acquired by Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure. During the first quarter of 2013, the Bank acquired $425,000 of residential real estate by deed in lieu of foreclosure. As part of the final settlement of the borrower’s obligation under the mortgage, the borrower paid the Bank $130,000 cash which was recorded as a reduction of principal. The real estate is reported in the balance sheet line item, “Other assets” at March 31, 2013. The final settlement with the borrower resulted in no gain or loss for the Bank during the quarter. The property is accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated cost to sell.

5 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Corporation’s 2006 Stock Compensation Plan (“2006 Plan”) permits the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees and non-employee directors for up to 600,000 shares of common stock of which 118,879 shares remain available for grant as of March 31, 2013. Through December 31, 2011, equity grants to executive officers and directors under the 2006 Plan consisted of a combination of nonqualified stock options (“NQSOs”) and RSUs, while equity grants to other officers consisted solely of NQSOs. Beginning with the January 2012 grant, the Corporation’s Board of Directors determined that equity compensation for all officers and directors will consist solely of RSUs.

Fair Value of Stock Option Awards. The grant date fair value of option awards was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. There were no stock options granted by the Corporation’s Board of Directors during 2012 or the three-month period ended March 31, 2013.

Fair Value of Restricted Stock Units. The fair value of restricted stock units is based on the market price of the shares underlying the awards on the grant date, discounted for dividends which are not paid on restricted stock units.

Compensation Expense. Compensation expense for stock options is recognized ratably over the five-year vesting period or the period from the grant date to the participant’s eligible retirement date, whichever is shorter. Compensation expense for RSUs is recognized over the three-year performance period and adjusted periodically to reflect the estimated number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock into which the RSUs will ultimately be convertible. However, if the period between the grant date and the grantee’s eligible retirement date is less than three years, compensation expense is recognized ratably over this shorter period. In determining compensation expense for stock options and RSUs outstanding and not yet vested, the Corporation assumes, based on prior experience that no forfeitures will occur. The Corporation recorded compensation expense for share-based payments of $136,000 and $242,000 and recognized related income tax benefits of $54,000 and $96,000 in the first three months of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Stock Option Activity. The following table presents a summary of options outstanding under the Corporation’s stock-based compensation plans as of March 31, 2013, and changes during the three-month period then ended.

						Weighted-
				Weighted-		Average		Aggregate
				Average		Remaining		Intrinsic
	Number of			Exercise		Contractual		Value

Outstanding at March 31, 2013		270,664		$	23.39		4.89	$	1,694
Exercisable at March 31, 2013		211,186		$	22.52		4.27	$	1,507

All options outstanding at March 31, 2013 are either fully vested or expected to vest. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the first three months of 2013 and 2012 was $213,000 and $371,000, respectively.

Restricted Stock Activity. On January 22, 2013, the Corporation’s Board of Directors granted 27,576 RSUs under the 2006 Plan. The Corporation’s financial performance for 2015 will determine the number of shares of common stock, if any, into which the RSUs will ultimately be converted. In the table that follows, the number of RSUs granted represents the maximum number of shares into which the RSUs can be converted. The following table presents a summary of the status of the Corporation’s nonvested shares as of March 31, 2013 and the changes in such shares during the three-month period then ended.

				Weighted-
				Average
	Number of			Grant-Date
	Shares			Fair Value
Nonvested at January 1, 2013		45,444		$	24.98
Granted		27,576			26.68
Forfeited		(264	)		24.23
Nonvested at March 31, 2013		72,756		$	25.62

Unrecognized Compensation Cost. As of March 31, 2013, there was $1.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested equity awards. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.10 years.

Cash Received and Tax Benefits Realized. Cash received from option exercises for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $669,000 and $942,000, respectively. The actual tax benefit realized for the tax deductions from option exercises for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $69,000 and $104,000, respectively.

Table of Contents

Other. No cash was used to settle stock options during the first three months of 2013 or 2012. The Corporation uses newly issued shares to settle stock option exercises and for the conversion of RSUs.

The Bank makes cash contributions to the pension plan (“Plan”) which comply with the funding requirements of applicable Federal laws and regulations. For funding purposes, the laws and regulations set forth both minimum required and maximum tax deductible contributions. The Bank has no minimum required pension contribution and, due to the fact that the Plan is funded beyond most critical statutory thresholds, the Bank will have no opportunity to make a tax-deductible contribution for the Plan year ending September 30, 2013.

7 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value. When measuring fair value, the Corporation uses a fair value hierarchy, which is designed to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The hierarchy involves three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Corporation has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Corporation’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Corporation deems transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy to have occurred on the date of the event or change in circumstance that caused the transfer. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy in the three months ended March 31, 2013 or 2012.

The fair values of the Corporation’s investment securities designated as available-for-sale at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are set forth in the tables that follow. These values are determined on a recurring basis using matrix pricing (Level 2 inputs). Matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities, does not rely exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather on the relationship of such securities to other benchmark quoted securities.

Financial instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, are set forth in the table that follows. Real estate appraisals utilized in measuring the fair value of impaired loans may employ a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. In arriving at fair value, the Corporation adjusts the value set forth in the appraisal by deducting costs to sell and a distressed sale adjustment. The adjustments made by the appraisers and the Corporation are deemed to be significant unobservable inputs and therefore typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs used for determining the fair value of impaired loans. Because the Corporation has a small amount of impaired loans measured at fair value, the impact of unobservable inputs on the Corporation’s financial statements is not material.

The impaired loans set forth in the preceding table had principal balances of $1,972,000 and $2,248,000 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and valuation allowances of $503,000 and $319,000, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Corporation recorded provisions for loan losses of $188,000 and $68,000, respectively, for impaired loans measured at fair value.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time. Such estimates are generally subjective in nature and dependent upon a number of significant assumptions associated with each financial instrument or group of similar financial instruments, including estimates of discount rates, risks associated with specific financial instruments, estimates of future cash flows, and relevant available market information. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. In addition, fair value estimates do not reflect the value of anticipated future business, premiums or discounts that could result from offering for sale at one time the Corporation’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, or the tax consequences of realizing gains or losses on the sale of financial instruments. The following table sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value in the Corporation’s financial statements at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

The following methods and assumptions are used by the Corporation in measuring the fair value of financial instruments disclosed in the preceding table.

Cash and cash equivalents. The recorded book value of cash and cash equivalents is their fair value.

Investment securities. Fair values are based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or derived principally from observable market data.

Loans. The total loan portfolio is divided into three segments: (1) residential mortgages; (2) commercial mortgages and commercial loans; and (3) and consumer loans. Each segment is further divided into pools of loans with similar financial characteristics (i.e. product type, fixed versus variable rate, time to rate reset, length of term, conforming versus nonconforming). Cash flows for each pool, including estimated prepayments if applicable, are discounted utilizing market or internal benchmarks which management believes are reflective of current market rates for similar loan products. The discounted value of the cash flows is reduced by the related allowance for loan losses to arrive at an estimate of fair value.

Restricted stock. The recorded book value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock and Federal Reserve Bank stock is their fair value because the stock is redeemable at cost.

Deposit liabilities. The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as checking deposits, money market deposits, NOW accounts and savings deposits, is equal to their recorded book value. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is equivalent to the rate at which the Bank could currently replace these deposits with wholesale borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Borrowed funds. For short-term borrowings maturing within ninety days, the recorded book value is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is equivalent to the rate at which the Bank could currently replace these borrowings with wholesale borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Accrued interest receivable and payable. For these short-term instruments, the recorded book value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Off-balance-sheet Items. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is not considered to be material.

8 - ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02 “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The amendments in ASU 2013-02 require entities like the Corporation to provide information on a quarterly and annual basis about significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The information would be provided either on the face of the consolidated income statement or as a separate disclosure in the notes to the consolidated financial statements if the item reclassified is included in net income in its entirety in the period of reclassification. Such information would include the effects on net income of significant amounts reclassified out of each component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Where a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is initially transferred to a balance sheet account rather than directly to income or expense, the entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about that amount. The amendments do not change the requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. For public entities like the Corporation, the amendments became effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning in 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 on January 1, 2013 resulted in the disclosures in “Note 2 – Comprehensive Income” of the specific income statement line items impacted by the reclassification adjustments and their related tax effect.

9 - IMPACT OF ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

There are no issued but not yet effective accounting standards that could potentially have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial position, results of operations or disclosures.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is management's discussion and analysis of The First of Long Island Corporation’s financial condition and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements. The Corporation’s financial condition and operating results principally reflect those of its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island, and subsidiaries wholly-owned by the Bank, either directly or indirectly, The First of Long Island Agency, Inc., FNY Service Corp. and The First of Long Island REIT, Inc. The consolidated entity is referred to as the “Corporation” and the Bank and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Bank.” The Bank’s primary service area is Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Long Island. Additionally, the Bank has two commercial banking branches in Manhattan.

Overview

Net income and earnings per share for the first quarter of 2013 were $5.6 million and $.62, respectively, representing increases over the same quarter last year of 9.5% and 6.9%, respectively. Dividends per share were $.25 for the first quarter of 2013, or 8.7% more than the $.23 per share declared in the same quarter last year. Returns on average assets (ROA) and average equity (ROE) for the first quarter of 2013 were 1.09% and 11.10%, respectively, versus 1.01% and 10.67%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2012. A decrease in unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities accounts for a significant portion of the increase in ROE and is the reason the Corporation’s book value per share decreased from $22.81 at year-end 2012 to $22.71 at the end of the current quarter. The credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio remains excellent and the loan pipeline is strong.

Analysis of First Quarter Earnings. The increase in net income for the first quarter of 2013 is primarily attributable to a decrease in the provision for loan losses of $1.3 million, as partially offset by increases in noninterest expense of $603,000 and income tax expense of $330,000. Because of the low interest rate environment, net interest income for the quarter only increased by $136,000, or .9%, and net interest margin declined by 6 basis points despite significant growth in the average balances of loans and noninterest-bearing checking deposits.

The $1.3 million decrease in the provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2013 versus the same quarter last year is due to less loan growth in the current quarter, net recoveries in the current quarter of $132,000 versus net chargeoffs of $446,000 in the same quarter last year, and a reduction in historical loss rates in the current quarter versus an increase in the same quarter last year. The impact of these items in reducing the provision was partially offset by the fact that the current quarter includes an increase in specific reserves on loans individually deemed to be impaired of $180,000 while the same quarter last year included a decrease of $256,000 in such reserves.

The $603,000 increase in noninterest expense is comprised of an increase in salaries of $153,000, or 3.8%, an increase in employee benefits expense of $130,000, or 10.1%, an increase in occupancy and equipment expense of $142,000, or 7.7% and an increase in other operating expenses of $178,000, or 8.9%.

Asset Quality. The Bank’s allowance for loan losses to total loans (reserve coverage ratio) was 1.59% at March 31, 2013 compared to 1.62% at year-end 2012. The decrease in the reserve coverage ratio is largely due to a reduction in historical loss rates. The $192,000 credit provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2013 is primarily attributable to the reduction in historical loss rates and net recoveries on loans previously charged off, as partially offset by the impact on the provision of growth in the loan portfolio and an increase in reserves on loans individually deemed to be impaired. The $1.1 million provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2012 was primarily attributable to the impact of loan growth, net chargeoffs and an increase in historical loss rates, as partially offset by a reduction in reserves on loans individually deemed to be impaired.

The credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio remains excellent, with nonaccrual loans amounting to $3.5 million, or .30% of total loans outstanding at March 31, 2013. Additionally, loans past due 30 through 89 days amounted to only $1.4 million, or .12% of total loans outstanding. Troubled debt restructurings were relatively unchanged during the quarter amounting to $4.3 million at quarter end compared to $4.4 million at year-end 2012. Of the $4.3 million in troubled debt restructurings outstanding at March 31, 2013, $1.7 million are performing in accordance with their modified terms and $2.6 million are past due or nonaccrual and included in the aforementioned amounts of past due and nonaccrual loans. The credit quality of the Bank’s securities portfolio also remains excellent. The Bank’s mortgage securities are backed by mortgages underwritten on conventional terms, with 89% of these securities being full faith and credit obligations of the U.S. government and the balance being obligations of U.S. government sponsored entities. The remainder of the Bank’s securities portfolio principally consists of high quality, general obligation municipal securities rated AA or better by major rating agencies. In selecting municipal securities for purchase, the Bank uses credit agency ratings for screening purposes only and then performs its own credit analysis. On an ongoing basis, the Bank periodically assesses the credit strength of the municipal securities in its portfolio and makes decisions to hold or sell based on such assessments.

Capital. The Corporation’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios were 9.38%, 18.90% and 20.16%, respectively, at March 31, 2013. The strength of the Corporation’s balance sheet from both a capital and asset quality perspective positions the Corporation for continued growth in a measured and disciplined fashion.

Key Strategic Initiatives. Key strategic initiatives will continue to include loan and deposit growth through effective relationship management, targeted solicitation efforts, new product offerings and continued expansion of the Bank’s branch distribution system. Additionally, with respect to loan growth, the Bank will continue to develop its broker relationships and may establish correspondent relationships. In 2012, the Bank opened one full service branch in Lindenhurst, Long Island. In the first quarter of this year, the Bank opened a full service branch in Massapequa Park, Long Island and is planning to open another full service branch in Sayville, Long Island later this year.

Challenges We Face. Interest rates are currently very low and are expected to remain low for an extended period of time. In addition, there is significant price competition for loans in the Bank’s marketplace and there is little room for the Bank to further reduce its deposit rates. The persistence of these factors could result in a decline in net interest margin from its current level. If that were to occur, and management is unable to offset the resulting negative impact by increasing the volume of the Bank’s interest-earning assets, effecting a favorable change in the mix of the Bank’s interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, reducing expenses or the employment other measures, the Bank’s profitability could decline.

Commercial and residential real estate values have been negatively impacted by persistently high levels of unemployment and underemployment, a decline in household disposable income, foreclosures and commercial vacancies. Although real estate values have rebounded some in recent months, these factors still present meaningful threats to the maintenance of loan quality.

The banking industry is currently faced with an ever-increasing number of new and complex regulatory requirements which are putting downward pressure on revenues and upward pressure on required capital levels and the cost of doing business.

Net Interest Income

Due to the low interest rate environment, net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis only increased by $100,000 despite significant growth in loans and noninterest-bearing checking deposits. The increase in net interest income resulted primarily from growth in average interest-earning assets of $45.5 million, or 2.3%. A significant portion of the positive impact of the growth in average interest-earning assets was offset by a 6 basis point decline in net interest margin from 3.37% for the first quarter of 2012 to 3.31% for the current quarter. A low interest rate environment negatively impacts net interest income and net interest margin primarily because: (1) the benefit of no cost funding in the form of noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital is reduced; (2) cash received from payments and prepayments of higher yielding loans and securities is used to originate or purchase lower yielding loans and securities; (3) the rates on some loans are modified downward to dissuade borrowers from refinancing elsewhere, while other loans prepay in full resulting in the immediate writeoff of deferred costs; and (4) prepayment speeds on mortgage securities are high, thereby necessitating the faster amortization of purchase premiums.

The increase in average interest-earning assets of $45.5 million is primarily comprised of increases in the average balance of loans outstanding of $144.0 million, or 14.4%, and nontaxable securities of $9.1 million, or 2.5%, as partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of taxable securities of $111.2 million, or 18.3%. From a yield perspective, the shift from lower yielding taxable securities to better yielding loans and nontaxable securities resulted in an improvement in the mix of the Bank’s interest-earning assets. Growth in the average balances of noninterest-bearing checking deposits of $80.9 million, or 18.7%, and savings, NOW and money market deposits of $63.4 million, or 7.8%, were used to fund loan growth and pay down high cost long-term debt. This contributed to a reduction in the overall cost of the Bank’s interest-bearing liabilities and served to mitigate the decline in net interest margin caused by the low interest rate environment.

The Bank’s continued ability to grow loans is attributable to a variety of factors including, among others, competitive pricing, targeted solicitation efforts, advertising campaigns, and broker relationships for both residential mortgages and multifamily commercial mortgages. The Bank’s ability to continue to grow deposits is attributable to, among other things, expansion of the Bank’s branch distribution system, targeted solicitation of local commercial businesses and municipalities, new and expanded lending relationships, the Bank’s positive reputation in its marketplace and the acquisition of some local competitors by larger financial institutions.

Table of Contents

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income includes service charges on deposit accounts, Investment Management Division income, gains or losses on sales of securities, and all other items of income, other than interest, resulting from the business activities of the Corporation. Noninterest income decreased by $30,000, or 1.8%, when comparing the first quarter of 2013 to the same quarter last year. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $104,000 decline in net gains on sales of securities and a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts of $69,000, as partially offset by an increase in other noninterest income of $132,000. The $132,000 increase in other noninterest income includes a real estate tax refund of $73,000.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense is comprised of salaries, employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expense and other operating expenses incurred in supporting the various business activities of the Corporation. Noninterest expense increased $603,000, or 6.6%, to $9.8 million in the first quarter of 2013 from $9.2 million in the same quarter last year. The $603,000 increase in noninterest expense is comprised of an increase in salaries of $153,000, or 3.8%, an increase in employee benefits expense of $130,000, or 10.1%, an increase in occupancy and equipment expense of $142,000, or 7.7% and an increase in other operating expenses of $178,000, or 8.9%. The increase in salaries is primarily due to normal annual salary adjustments and new branch openings. The increase in employee benefits expense is largely due to increases in incentive compensation and group health insurance expense. These increases were partially driven by additions to staff, an increase in the size of the Bank’s executive team and a change in the Bank’s executive compensation plan. The increase in occupancy and equipment expense is largely due to an increase in maintenance and repairs and snow removal cost. The increase in other operating expenses is largely due to the fact that consulting expense was higher in the current quarter and the first quarter of 2012 included the partial reversal of a previously accrued charge for pending litigation. Management continues to maintain a strong focus on expense control measures and enhancements in operating efficiency.

Income tax expense as a percentage of book income (“effective tax rate”) was 22.3% for the first quarter in 2013 compared to 20.0% for the same quarter last year. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2013 is primarily attributable to the fact that income on tax-exempt securities became a smaller percentage of pre-tax income.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported asset and liability balances and revenue and expense amounts. Our determination of the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting estimate because it is based on our subjective evaluation of a variety of factors at a specific point in time and involves difficult and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. In the event that management’s estimate needs to be adjusted based on, among other things, additional information that comes to light after the estimate is made or changes in circumstances, such adjustment could result in the need for a significantly different allowance for loan losses and thereby materially impact, either positively or negatively, the Bank’s results of operations.

The Bank’s Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses Committee (“ALLL Committee”), which is chaired by the Senior Lending Officer, meets on a quarterly basis and is responsible for determining the allowance for loan losses after considering, among other things, the results of credit reviews performed by the Bank’s independent loan review consultants. In addition, and in consultation with the Bank’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Risk Officer, the ALLL Committee is responsible for implementing and maintaining policies and procedures surrounding the calculation of the required allowance. The Board Loan Committee reviews and approves the Bank’s Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses Policy at least once each calendar year. The Bank’s allowance for loan losses is reviewed and ratified by the Board Loan Committee on a quarterly basis and is subject to periodic examination by the OCC whose safety and soundness examination includes a determination as to its adequacy to absorb probable incurred losses.

The first step in determining the allowance for loan losses is to identify loans in the Bank’s portfolio that are individually deemed to be impaired and measure impairment losses based on either the fair value of collateral or the discounted value of expected future cash flows. For all collateral dependent impaired loans, impairment losses are measured based on the fair value of the collateral. A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled principal and interest payments when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls are not automatically considered to be impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and financial condition, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. In estimating the fair value of real estate collateral, management utilizes appraisals and also makes qualitative judgments based on, among other things, its knowledge of the local real estate market and analyses of current economic conditions and trends. Estimating the fair value of collateral other than real estate is also subjective in nature and sometimes requires difficult and complex judgments. Determining expected future cash flows can be more subjective than determining fair values. Expected future cash flows could differ significantly, both in timing and amount, from the cash flows actually received over the loan’s remaining life.

Table of Contents

In addition to estimating losses for loans individually deemed to be impaired, management also estimates collective impairment losses for pools of loans that are not specifically reviewed. Statistical information regarding the Bank’s historical loss experience is the starting point in making such estimates. The Bank utilizes a historical loss period of 24 to 60 months which management believes appropriately reflects losses from the current economic cycle and incurred losses in the Bank’s current loan portfolio. However, future losses could vary significantly from those experienced in the past, and accordingly on a quarterly basis management adjusts its historical loss experience to reflect current conditions. In doing so, management considers a variety of general qualitative factors and then subjectively determines the weight to assign to each in estimating losses. The factors include, among others: (1) delinquencies, (2) economic conditions as judged by things such as median home prices and commercial vacancy rates in the Bank’s service area and national and local unemployment levels, (3) trends in nature and volume of loans, (4) concentrations of credit, (5) changes in lending policies and procedures, (6) experience, ability and depth of lending staff, (7) changes in quality of the loan review function, (8) environmental risks, and (9) loan risk ratings. Because of the nature of the factors and the difficulty in assessing their impact, management’s resulting estimate of losses may not accurately reflect actual losses in the portfolio.

The allowance for loan losses is comprised of impairment losses on the loans specifically reviewed and estimated losses on the pools of loans that are collectively reviewed. Although the allowance for loan losses has two separate components, one for impairment losses on individual loans and one for collective impairment losses on pools of loans, the entire allowance for loan losses is available to absorb realized losses as they occur whether they relate to individual loans or pools of loans.

Asset Quality

The Corporation has identified certain assets as risk elements. These assets include nonaccruing loans, other real estate owned, loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments and still accruing and troubled debt restructurings. These assets present more than the normal risk that the Corporation will be unable to eventually collect or realize their full carrying value. Information about the Corporation’s risk elements is set forth below.

	March 31,			December 31,
	2013			2012
	(dollars in thousands)
Nonaccrual loans:
Troubled debt restructurings	$	2,357		$	2,430
Other		1,113			1,668
Other real estate owned		425			-
Total nonperforming assets		3,895			4,098
Troubled debt restructurings - performing		1,946			1,953
Total risk elements	$	5,841		$	6,051

Nonaccrual loans as a percentage of total loans		.30	%		.36	%
Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans and foreclosed real estate		.33	%		.36	%
Risk elements as a percentage of total loans and foreclosed real estate		.50	%		.53	%

The performing troubled debt restructurings shown in the table above include $206,000 as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 that are past due 30 through 89 days and still accruing. In addition to the Bank’s past due, nonaccrual and restructured loans, the disclosure of other potential problem loans can be found in “Note 4 – Loans” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements of this Form 10-Q.

Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. When available information confirms that specific loans, or portions thereof, are uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance for loan losses.

The allowance for loan losses decreased by $60,000 during the first quarter of 2013, amounting to $18.6 million, or 1.59% of total loans, at March 31, 2013 compared to 1.62% of total loans at December 31, 2012. During the first quarter of 2013, the Bank had loan chargeoffs and recoveries of $3,000 and $135,000, respectively, and recorded a credit to the provision for loan losses of $192,000. The credit provision is primarily attributable to a reduction in historical loss rates and net recoveries on loans previously charged off, as partially offset by the impact on the provision of growth in the loan portfolio and an increase of $180,000 in reserves on loans individually deemed to be impaired. The $1.1 million provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2012 was primarily attributable to the impact of loan growth, net chargeoffs of $446,000 and an increase in historical loss rates, as partially offset by a reduction of $256,000 in reserves on loans individually deemed to be impaired.

The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management currently believes will be adequate to absorb probable incurred losses in the Bank’s loan portfolio. As more fully discussed in the “Application of Critical Accounting Policies” section of this discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, the process for estimating credit losses and determining the allowance for loan losses as of any balance sheet date is subjective in nature and requires material estimates. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Other detailed information on the Bank’s allowance for loan losses, impaired loans and the aging of loans can be found in “Note 4 – Loans” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q.

The amount of future chargeoffs and provisions for loan losses will be affected by, among other things, economic conditions on Long Island and in New York City. Such conditions could affect the financial strength of the Bank’s borrowers and will affect the value of real estate collateral securing the Bank’s mortgage loans. Loans secured by real estate represent approximately 94% of the Bank’s total loans outstanding at March 31, 2013. Most of these loans were made to borrowers domiciled on Long Island and in the boroughs of New York City. In the last few years, general economic conditions have been unfavorable as characterized by high levels of unemployment and underemployment, suppressed commercial and residential real estate values, and high commercial real estate vacancies. These conditions have caused some of the Bank’s borrowers to be unable to make the required contractual payments on their loans and could cause the Bank to be unable to realize the full carrying value of such loans through foreclosure or other collection efforts.

Future provisions and chargeoffs could also be affected by environmental impairment of properties securing the Bank’s mortgage loans. At the present time, management is not aware of any environmental pollution originating on or near properties securing the Bank’s loans that would materially affect the carrying value of such loans.

Cash Flows and Liquidity

Cash Flows. The Corporation’s primary sources of cash are deposits, maturities and amortization of loans and investment securities, operations and borrowings. The Corporation uses cash from these and other sources to fund loan growth, purchase investment securities, repay borrowings, expand and improve its physical facilities, pay cash dividends and for general operating purposes. During the first quarter of 2013, the Corporation’s cash and cash equivalent position decreased by $15.2 million from $42.2 million at December 31, 2012 to $27.0 million at March 31, 2013. The decrease occurred primarily because cash used to grow the loan and securities portfolios exceeded the cash provided by deposit growth and operations.

Liquidity. The Bank’s Board of Directors has approved a Liquidity Policy and Liquidity Contingency Plan, which are intended to insure that the Bank has sufficient liquidity at all times to meet the ongoing needs of its customers in terms of credit and deposit outflows, take advantage of earnings enhancement opportunities and respond to liquidity stress conditions should they arise.

The Bank has both internal and external sources of liquidity that can be used to fund loan growth and accommodate deposit outflows. The Bank’s primary internal sources of liquidity are its overnight investments, investment securities designated as available-for-sale, maturities and monthly payments on its investment securities and loan portfolios and operations. At March 31, 2013, the Bank had approximately $584 million of unencumbered available-for-sale securities.

The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“FRB”) and the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB of New York”), has repurchase agreements in place with a number of brokerage firms and commercial banks and has federal funds lines with several commercial banks. In addition to customer deposits, the Bank’s primary external sources of liquidity are secured borrowings from the FRB, FHLB of New York and repurchase agreement counterparties. In addition, the Bank can purchase overnight federal funds under its existing lines. However, the Bank’s FRB membership, FHLB of New York membership, repurchase agreements and federal funds lines do not represent legal commitments to extend credit to the Bank. The amount that the Bank can potentially borrow is currently dependent on, among other things, the amount of unencumbered eligible securities and loans that the Bank can use as collateral and the collateral margins required by the lenders. Based on the securities and loan collateral in place at the FRB and FHLB of New York at March 31, 2013, the Bank had borrowing capacity of approximately $779 million.

Capital

The Corporation’s capital management policy is designed to build and maintain capital levels that exceed regulatory standards. Under current regulatory capital standards, banks are classified as well capitalized, adequately capitalized or undercapitalized. Under such standards, a well-capitalized bank is one that has a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio equal to or greater than 5%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 6%, and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 10%. The Bank’s Tier 1 leverage capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios of 9.18%, 18.48% and 19.74%, respectively, at March 31, 2013 exceed the requirements for a well-capitalized bank and, based on management’s belief, are adequate in the current regulatory and economic environment. The Corporation (on a consolidated basis) is subject to minimum risk-based and leverage capital requirements, which the Corporation exceeds as of March 31, 2013.

Stockholders’ equity totaled $206.1 million at March 31, 2013, an increase of $779,000 from $205.4 million at December 31, 2012. The increase resulted primarily from net income of $5.6 million and the issuance of shares under the Corporation’s stock-based compensation, dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plans of $1.7 million, partially offset by cash dividends declared of $2.3 million and a decrease in unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities of $4.5 million.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Bank invests in interest-earning assets, which are funded by interest-bearing deposits and borrowings, noninterest-bearing deposits and capital. The Bank’s results of operations are subject to risk resulting from interest rate fluctuations generally and having assets and liabilities that have different maturity, repricing, and prepayment/withdrawal characteristics. The Bank defines interest rate risk as the risk that the Bank's net interest income and/or economic value of equity (“EVE”) will change when interest rates change. The principal objective of the Bank’s asset liability management activities is to optimize current and future net interest income while at the same time maintain acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risk and facilitate the funding needs of the Bank.

The Bank monitors and manages interest rate risk through a variety of techniques including traditional gap analysis and the use of interest rate sensitivity models. Both gap analysis and interest rate sensitivity modeling involve a variety of significant estimates and assumptions and are done at a specific point in time. Changes in the estimates and assumptions made in gap analysis and interest rate sensitivity modeling could have a significant impact on projected results and conclusions. Therefore, these techniques may not accurately reflect the actual impact of changes in the interest rate environment on the Bank’s net interest income or EVE.

Traditional gap analysis involves arranging the Bank’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities by repricing periods and then computing the difference, or interest-rate sensitivity gap, between the assets and liabilities which are estimated to reprice during each time period and cumulatively through the end of each time period. Gap analysis requires estimates as to when individual categories of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities will reprice and assumes that assets and liabilities assigned to the same repricing period will reprice at the same time and in the same amount. Gap analysis also assumes that cash flows from maturing assets and liabilities will be reinvested in or refinanced by assets and liabilities of the same type, and does not fully take into account the fact that the repricing of some assets and liabilities is discretionary and subject to competitive and other pressures.

Through use of interest rate sensitivity modeling, the Bank first projects net interest income over a five-year time period assuming a static balance sheet and no changes in interest rates from current levels. Utilization of static balance sheet ensures that interest rate risk embedded in the Bank’s current balance sheet is not masked by assumed balance sheet growth or contraction. Net interest income is then projected over a five-year time period utilizing: (1) a static balance sheet and various interest rate change scenarios, including both ramped and shock changes; and (2) a most likely balance sheet growth scenario and these same interest rate change scenarios. The interest rate scenarios modeled are based on, among other things, the shape of the current yield curve and the relative level of rates and management’s expectations as to potential future yield curve shapes and rate levels.

The Bank also uses interest rate sensitivity modeling to calculate EVE in the current rate environment assuming both shock increases and decreases in interest rates. EVE is the difference between the present value of expected future cash flows from the Bank’s assets and the present value of the expected future cash flows from the Bank’s liabilities. Present values are determined using discount rates that management believes are reflective of current market conditions. EVE can capture long-term interest rate risk that would not be captured in a five-year projection of net interest income.

In utilizing interest rate sensitivity modeling to project net interest income and calculate EVE, management makes a variety of estimates and assumptions which include, among others, the following: (1) how much and when yields and costs on individual categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities will change in response to projected changes in market interest rates; (2) future cash flows, including prepayments of mortgage assets and calls of municipal securities; (3) cash flow reinvestment assumptions; (4) appropriate discount rates to be applied to loan, deposit and borrowing cash flows; and (5) decay or runoff rates for nonmaturity deposits such as checking, savings, NOW and money market accounts. The repricing of loans and borrowings and the reinvestment of loan and security cash flows are generally assumed to be impacted by the full amount of each assumed rate change, while the repricing of nonmaturity deposits is not. For nonmaturity deposits, management makes estimates of how much and when it will need to change the rates paid on the Bank’s various deposit products in response to changes in general market interest rates. These estimates are based on, among other things, product type, management’s experience with needed deposit rate adjustments in prior interest rate change cycles, and management’s assessment of competitive conditions in its marketplace.

The information provided in the following table is based on a variety of estimates and assumptions that the Corporation believes to be reasonable, the more significant of which are set forth hereinafter. The base case information in the table shows (1) a calculation of the Corporation’s EVE at March 31, 2013 arrived at by discounting estimated future cash flows at rates that management believes are reflective of current market conditions and (2) an estimate of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the year ending March 31, 2014 assuming a static balance sheet, the adjustment of repricing balances to current rate levels, and the reinvestment at current rate levels of cash flows from maturing assets and liabilities in a mix of assets and liabilities that mirrors the Bank’s current strategic plan. In addition, in calculating EVE, cash flows for nonmaturity deposits are based on a decay or runoff rate of five years.

Table of Contents

The rate change information in the table shows estimates of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the year ending March 31, 2014 and calculations of EVE at March 31, 2013 assuming rate changes of plus 100, 200 and 300 basis points and minus 100 points. The rate change scenarios were selected based on, among other things, the relative level of current interest rates and are: (1) assumed to be shock or immediate changes, (2) occur uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities, and (3) impact the repricing and reinvestment of all assets and liabilities, except nonmaturity deposits, by the full amount of the rate change. In projecting future net interest income under the indicated rate change scenarios, activity is simulated by assuming that cash flows from maturing assets and liabilities are reinvested in a mix of assets and liabilities that mirrors the Bank’s current strategic plan. The changes in EVE from the base case have not been tax affected.

	Economic Value of Equity		Net Interest Income
	at March 31, 2013		for Year Ended 3/31/14
		Percent		Percent
		Change		Change
		From		From
Rate Change Scenario	Amount	Base Case	Amount	Base Case
	(dollars in thousands)
+ 300 basis point rate shock	$142,710	-31.1%	$65,599	-2.7%
+ 200 basis point rate shock	184,381	-11.0%	70,989	5.3%
+ 100 basis point rate shock	203,471	-1.8%	70,752	5.0%
Base case (no rate change)	207,216	-	67,407	-
- 100 basis point rate shock	186,063	-10.2%	62,958	-6.6%

As shown in the preceding table, assuming a static balance sheet, an immediate decrease in interest rates of 100 basis points or an immediate increase in interest rates of 300 basis points could negatively impact the Bank’s net interest income for the year ended March 31, 2014. Conversely, an immediate increase in interest rates of 100 or 200 basis points could positively impact the Bank’s net interest income for the same time period. The Bank’s net interest income could be negatively impacted in a shock down 100 basis point scenario because, among other things, the rates currently being paid on many of the Bank’s deposit products are approaching zero and there is little room to reduce them further. Unlike the shock up 100 and 200 basis point scenarios, in the shock up 300 basis point scenario it is assumed that the Bank will need to make significant changes to the rat es paid on its nonmaturity deposits in order to remain competitive and thus net interest income could be negatively impacted. Changes in management’s estimates as to the rates that will need to be paid on nonmaturity deposits could have a significant impact on the net interest income amounts shown for each scenario in the table.
