KEARNY FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

 

1.     PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Kearny Financial Corp. (the “Company”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kearny Bank (the “Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, CJB Investment Corp. and KFS Financial Services, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, KFS Insurance Services, Inc. The Company conducts its business principally through the Bank. Management prepared the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), including the elimination of all significant inter-company accounts and transactions during consolidation.

 

 

2.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X and do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended December 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other period.

The data in the consolidated statement of financial condition for June 30, 2019 was derived from the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. That data, along with the interim unaudited financial information presented in the consolidated statements of financial condition, income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

 

3.     NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE (“EPS”)

Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares actually outstanding including both vested and unvested restricted stock awards adjusted for Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) shares not yet committed to be released. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as outstanding stock options, were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding to include the effect of contracts or securities exercisable or which could be converted into common stock, if dilutive, using the treasury stock method. Shares issued and reacquired during any period are weighted for the portion of the period they were outstanding.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

Stock options for 3,115,000 and 3,099,000 shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per share at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, because they were considered anti-dilutive.

 

 

4.     SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the statement of financial condition date of December 31, 2019, for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.  The evaluation was conducted through the date this document was filed.

 

 

5.    PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF MSB FINANCIAL CORP.

On December 18, 2019, the Company and MSB Financial Corp. (“MSBF”), the holding company for Millington Bank announced that the companies had entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which the Company will acquire MSBF.  Consideration will be paid to MSBF stockholders in a combination of stock and cash.  Under the terms of merger agreement MSBF will merge with and into the Company and each outstanding share of MSBF common stock will be exchanged for 1.3 shares of the Company’s common stock or $18.00 in cash.  MSBF stockholders may elect cash or stock, or a combination thereof, subject to proration to ensure that, in the aggregate, 10% of MSBF shares will be converted into cash and 90% of MSBF shares will be converted into the Company’s common stock.  Upon closing, the Company’s stockholders holders will own approximately 94% of the combined company and MSBF stockholders will own approximately 6% of the combined company.

As of December 31, 2019, MSBF had approximately $593.1 million of assets, gross loans of $513.7 million and deposits of $472.8 million and operated four New Jersey branches located in Somerset and Morris counties.  The required approvals to complete this transaction include MSBF shareholder approval, regulatory approval, and the effectiveness of the registration statement filed by the Company with respect to the common stock to be issued in the transaction.  The merger is expected to close during the second calendar quarter of 2020.

 

 

6.    MERGER RELATED EXPENSES

Merger-related expenses are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of non-interest expense and include costs relating to the Company’s proposed acquisition of MSBF, as described above.  These charges represent one-time costs associated with acquisition activities and do not represent ongoing costs of the fully integrated combined organization.  Accounting guidance requires that acquisition-related transactional and restructuring costs incurred by the Company be charged to expense as incurred.

7.     RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.  The ASU requires credit losses on most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments to be measured using an expected credit loss model, referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. Under this model, entities will estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument (considering estimated prepayments, but not expected extensions or modifications unless reasonable expectation of a troubled debt restructuring exists) from the date of initial recognition of that instrument. An allowance will be established for loans that have been acquired in a business combination that currently do not have an allowance.  As of December 31, 2019, approximately $1.03 billion of acquired loans do not have an allowance.

The ASU also replaces the current accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities. The allowance for credit losses for purchased financial assets with a more-than insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (“PCD assets”), should be determined in a similar manner to other financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis. However, upon initial recognition, the allowance for credit losses is added to the purchase price (“gross up approach”) to determine the initial amortized cost basis. The subsequent accounting for PCD financial assets is the same expected loss model described above.

Further, the ASU made certain targeted amendments to the existing impairment model for available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities. For an AFS debt security for which there is neither the intent nor a more-likely-than-not requirement to sell, an entity will record credit losses as an allowance rather than a write-down of the amortized cost basis.  For public business entities that are SEC filers and not smaller reporting companies, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The Company will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of July 1, 2020 (i.e. modified retrospective approach).  The Company has selected a third party firm to assist in the development of a CECL program, and has selected a software model to assist in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses in preparation for the change to the expected loss model. The Company is continuing its evaluation of this ASU including the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements.  The extent of change is indeterminable at this time as it will be dependent upon portfolio composition and credit quality at the adoption date, as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time.  Upon adoption, any impact to the allowance for credit losses, currently allowance for loan and lease losses, will have an offsetting impact on retained earnings, and be net of tax.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU simplifies subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 of the impairment test while retaining the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine whether the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The ASU also eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Therefore, the same impairment assessment applies to all reporting units. For public entities, ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment testing dates beginning after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326); Targeted Transition Relief”.  ASU 2019-05 provides transition relief by providing entities with an alternative to irrevocably elect the fair value option for eligible financial assets measured at amortized cost upon adoption of the credit losses standard. To be eligible for the transition election, the existing financial asset must otherwise be both within the scope of the new credit losses standard and eligible for the applying the fair value option in ASC 825-10.3.  The election must be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is not available for either available for sale or held to maturity debt securities. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, ASU 2019-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted once ASU 2016-13 has been adopted. For entities that elect the fair value option, the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the financial asset would be recognized through a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings net of tax, as of the date an entity adopted ASU 2016-13. Changes in fair value of that financial asset would subsequently be reported in current earnings.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses”.  ASU 2019-11 clarifies the accounting treatment on the following issues: (i) negative allowances; (ii) troubled debt restructuring (TDR) transition; (iii) accrued interest disclosures; and (iv) collateral maintenance practical expedient.  ASU 2019-11 will permit an entity to record negative allowances on write-offs or expected write-offs of the amortized cost basis of purchased financial assets with credit deterioration (PCD) within ASC 326-20’s scope.  Regarding TDRs, the FASB tentatively approved a clarification to allow entities to calculate a prepayment-adjusted effective interest rate for TDRs existing as of the adoption date of ASC 326 based on the prepayment assumptions as of the adoption date rather than the restructuring date.  In the previously issued ASU 2019-04, FASB allowed an entity to elect a practical expedient to disclose separately the total amount of accrued interest included in the amortized cost basis as a single balance to meet certain disclosure requirements. ASU 2019-11 extends this relief to all relevant disclosures involving amortized cost basis.  A collateral maintenance practical expedient regarding collateral-dependent financial assets, will permit an allowance to be estimated as the difference between the value of the collateral net of costs to sell and the amortized cost basis of the loans.  For entities that have not yet adopted ASU 2016-13, the effective dates and transition requirements for these amendments are the same as ASU 2016-13.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income taxes (Topic 740); Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. ASU 2019-12 provides amendments intended to reduce the cost and complexity in accounting for income taxes while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements.  ASU 2019-12 removes the following exceptions from ASC 740, Income Taxes: (i) exceptions to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation; (ii) exceptions to accounting for basis differences when a foreign subsidiary becomes an equity method investment or a foreign equity method investment become a subsidiary; and (iii) exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. ASU 2019-12 provides the following amendments that simplify and improve guidance with Topic 740: (i) franchise taxes that are based partially on income; (ii) transactions that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; (iii) separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax; (iv) enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods; and (v) employee stock ownership plans and investments in qualified affordable housing projects accounted for using the equity method. For public business entities, the amendments in the ASU 2019-12 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.  

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Effective July 1, 2019, the Company implemented ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (modified by ASU 2018-01 – Leases (Topic 842): Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842) and ASU 2018-20 – Leases (Topic 842) Narrow – Scope Improvements for Lessors).  ASU 2016-02 requires the recognition of a right of use asset and related lease liability by lessees for leases classified as operating leases under current GAAP.  Topic 842, which replaces the current guidance under Topic 840, retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee also will not significantly change from current GAAP.  For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize right of use assets and lease liabilities.  The Company has made this accounting policy election. Effective with the adoption on July 1, 2019, the Company recognized a “right-of-use-asset” and a “lease liability” for its operating leases and has elected to apply practical expedients pertaining to the ASU. The Company applied the following three practical expediencies, which must be elected as a package and applied consistently to all of our leases: (i) the Company did not have to reassess whether any expired leases or existing contracts are, or contain, a lease; (ii) the Company did not have to reassess the lease classifications for any expired or existing leases.  Accordingly, Topic 840 operating leases became Topic 842 operating leases; and (iii) the Company did not have to reassess initial; direct costs for any existing leases. The Company applied a modified retrospective transition approach for the applicable leases.  ASU 2016-02 provides for a modified retrospective transition approach requiring lessees to recognize and measure leases on the balance sheet at the beginning of either the earliest period presented or as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company elected to account for lease and non-lease components separately because such amounts are readily determinable under our lease contracts rather than elect the practical expedient to account for the components as a single lease component.  The Company elected to apply ASU 2016-02 as of the beginning of the period of adoption (July 1, 2019) and will not restate comparative periods. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset of approximately $17.2 million and a lease liability of approximately $17.8 million.

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) Overnight Index Swap (“OIS”) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes. This ASU permits the use of the OIS Rate based on SOFR as a benchmark interest rate for purposes of applying hedge accounting under Topic 815. This is the fifth U.S. benchmark interest rate eligible for use in hedge accounting in addition to interest rates on direct Treasury obligations of the U.S. Government, the London Interbank Offered Rate swap rate, and the OIS Rate based on the Fed Funds Effective Rate and the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Rate.  The amendments in this ASU are required to be adopted concurrently with the amendments in ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, for entities that have not adopted that guidance.  For public entities that have previously adopted ASU 2017-12, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period if an entity already has adopted ASU 2017-12.  The Company early adopted ASU 2017-12 on July 1, 2017.  The amendments in ASU 2018-16 should be applied on a prospective basis for qualifying new or re-designated hedging relationships entered into on or after the date of adoption.  The Company adopted ASU 2018-16 on July 1, 2019, and its adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04 Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments. ASU 2019-04 amends certain aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments addressed by ASUs 2016-13, 2016-01, and 2017-12, respectively. Significant amendments to ASU 2016-13 relate to the measurement of accrued interest, transfers between classifications or categories for loans and debt securities and including recoveries when estimating the allowance for credit losses. For Topic 825, the codification improvements to ASU 2016-01 provide scope clarification for Subtopics 320-10, Investments-Debt and Equity Securities-Overall, and 321-10, Investments-Equity Securities-Overall, held to maturity debt securities fair value disclosures, and re-measurement of equity securities at historical exchange rates.  Significant amendments to ASU 2017-12 amends the guidance related to partial-term fair value hedges of interest rate risk, disclosure of fair value hedge basis adjustments, and scope for not-for-profit entities. ASU 2019-04 clarifies that an entity that reclassifies debt securities from the held to maturity category to available for sale as part of its transition would not (1) call in to question its held to maturity assertion for other securities held at the entity’s most recent reporting date, (2) be required to actually designate any reclassified security in a last-of-layer hedge, or (3) be restricted from selling any reclassified security.  The Company adopted ASU 2019-04 on July 1, 2019. As part of the adoption, the Company reclassified $537.7 million of investment securities held to maturity to investment securities available for sale. The Company did not reclassify investment securities from held to maturity to available for sale upon the original adoption of the amendments in ASU 2017-12. Entities electing to reclassify investment securities upon adoption of the amendments in this update are required to reflect the reclassification as of the beginning of the first annual period beginning after the issuance of ASU 2019-04 (July 1, 2019).

10.     IMPAIRMENT OF SECURITIES

The following two tables summarize the fair values, gross unrealized and unrecognized losses and the number of securities impaired within the available for sale and held to maturity portfolios at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019. The gross unrealized and unrecognized losses, presented by security type, represent temporary impairments of value within each portfolio as of the dates presented. Temporary impairments within the available for sale portfolio have been recognized through other comprehensive loss as reductions in stockholders’ equity on a tax-effected basis.

The tables are followed by a discussion that summarizes the Company’s rationale for recognizing impairments, where applicable, as temporary versus those identified as other-than-temporary. Such rationale is presented by investment type and generally applies consistently to both the available for sale and held to maturity portfolios, except where specifically noted.

In general, if the fair value of a debt security is less than its amortized cost basis at the time of evaluation, the security is impaired and the impairment is to be evaluated to determine if it is other than temporary.  The Company evaluates the impaired securities in its portfolio for possible other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on at least a quarterly basis.  The following represents the circumstances under which an impaired security is determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired: (i) when the Company intends to sell the impaired debt security; (ii) when the Company more likely than not will be required to sell the impaired debt security before recovery of its amortized cost; or (iii) when an impaired debt security does not meet either of the two conditions above, but the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost of the security.

In the first two circumstances noted above, the amount of OTTI to be recognized in earnings is the entire difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date.  In the third circumstance, however, the OTTI is to be separated into the amount representing the credit loss from the amount related to all other factors.  The credit loss component is to be recognized in earnings while the non-credit loss component is to be recognized in other comprehensive income.  In these cases, OTTI is generally predicated on an adverse change in cash flows versus those expected at the time of purchase.  The absence of an adverse change in expected cash flows generally indicates that a security’s impairment is related to other non-credit loss factors and is thereby generally not recognized as OTTI.

The Company considers a variety of factors when determining whether a credit loss exists for an impaired security including, but not limited to (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis; (ii) adverse conditions specifically related to the security, an industry, or a geographic area; (iii) the historical and implied volatility of the fair value of the security; (iv) the payment structure of the debt security; (v) actual or expected failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments; (vi) changes to the rating of the security by external rating agencies; and (vii) recoveries or additional declines in fair value subsequent to the balance sheet date.  The Company regularly monitors the historical cash flows and financial strength of all issuers and/or guarantors to confirm that security impairment, where applicable, is not due to an actual or expected adverse change in security cash flows that would result in the recognition of credit-related OTTI.

- 19 -


The unrealized and unrecognized losses on the Company’s securities are due to the combined effects of several market-related factors including, most notably, changes in market interest rates and changing market conditions which affect the supply and demand for such securities.  Those market conditions may fluctuate over time resulting in certain securities being impaired for periods in excess of 12 months.  However, the longevity of such impairment is not necessarily reflective of an expectation for an adverse change in cash flows signifying a credit loss.  Consequently, the impairments of value resulting directly from these changing market conditions are considered non-credit related and temporary in nature.

The Company has the stated ability and intent to hold until forecasted recovery those securities so designated at December 31, 2019 and does not intend to sell the temporarily impaired available for sale securities prior to the recovery of their fair value to a level equal to or greater than the Company’s amortized cost.  Furthermore, the Company has concluded that the possibility of being required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery is unlikely.  In light of the factors noted above, the Company does not consider its balance of securities with unrealized and unrecognized losses at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of those dates.

12.     LOAN QUALITY AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

Residential Mortgage Loans in Foreclosure. We may obtain physical possession of one- to four-family real estate collateralizing a residential mortgage loan via foreclosure or through an in-substance repossession.  As of December 31, 2019, we held one single-family property in other real estate owned, with a carrying value of $178,000 that was acquired through foreclosure on a residential mortgage loan.  As of that same date, we held 10 residential mortgage loans with aggregate carrying values totaling $1.9 million which were in the process of foreclosure.

As of June 30, 2019, we held no single-family properties that were acquired through foreclosures on residential mortgage loans.  As of that same date, we held 11 residential mortgage loans with aggregate carrying values totaling $2.1 million which were in the process of foreclosure.

 

Loan Quality. The following tables present the balance of the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 based upon the calculation methodology as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The tables identify the valuation allowances attributable to specifically identified impairments on individually evaluated loans, including those acquired with deteriorated credit quality, as well as valuation allowances for impairments on loans evaluated collectively. The tables include the underlying balance of loans receivable applicable to each category as of those dates as well as the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Unless otherwise noted, the balance of loans reported in the tables below excludes yield adjustments and the allowance for loan loss.

The manner in which the terms of a loan are modified through a troubled debt restructuring generally includes one or more of the following changes to the loan’s repayment terms:

 

Interest Rate Reduction: Temporary or permanent reduction of the interest rate charged against the outstanding balance of the loan.

 

Capitalization of Prior Past Dues: Capitalization of prior amounts due to the outstanding balance of the loan.

 

Extension of Maturity or Balloon Date: Extending the term of the loan past its original balloon or maturity date.

 

Deferral of Principal Payments: Temporary deferral of the principal portion of a loan payment.

 

Payment Recalculation and Re-amortization: Recalculation of the recurring payment obligation and resulting loan amortization/repayment schedule based on the loan’s modified terms.

 

13.     LEASES

The Company adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” and all subsequent ASUs that modified Topic 842 on July 1, 2019. Topic 842 requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset, measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments, at the lease commencement date. At the time of adoption, operating lease right-of-use assets of approximately $17.2 million and operating lease liabilities of approximately $17.8 million were recorded in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The calculated amount of the right-of-use asset and lease liabilities are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to calculate the present value of the minimum lease payments. The discount rate used in determining the lease liability for each individual lease was the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the time of adoption of ASU 2016-02, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term.

As of December 31, 2019, the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was 8.54 years and the weighted average discount rate used in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was 2.56%.  

The Company has elected to account for lease and non-lease components separately since such amounts are readily determinable under the Company’s lease contracts.  Total operating lease costs for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 was $1.2 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Net rent expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-02 was $781,000 and $1.5 million, respectively.

There were no sale and leaseback transactions, leveraged leases or lease transactions with related parties during the three and six months ended December 31, 2019.  At December 31, 2019, the Company had no leases that had not yet commenced.

 

A maturity analysis of operating lease liabilities and reconciliation of the undiscounted cash flows to the total operating lease liability at December 31, 2019 is as follows:

16.     DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company uses various financial instruments, including derivatives, to manage its exposure to interest rate risk. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to specific wholesale funding positions.

 

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments on the Statement of Financial Condition

The tables below present the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Statement of Financial Condition as of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019:

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using derivatives are primarily to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company has entered into interest rate swaps and caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  These interest rate products are designated as cash flow hedges.  As of December 31, 2019, the Company had a total of 15 interest rate swaps and caps with a total notional amount of $1.03 billion hedging rolling three-month fixed-rate borrowings.

For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive income, net of tax, and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate wholesale funding positions.  During the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, the Company had $836,000 and $2.2 million, respectively, of reclassifications to interest expense.  During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $1.0 million will be reclassified as a reduction in interest expense.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations and could be required to terminate its derivative positions with the counterparty.  The Company also has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution, then the Company could be required to terminate its derivative positions with the counterparty.

As required under the enforceable master netting arrangement with its derivatives counterparties, at December 31, 2019, the Company posted financial collateral of $150,000 that was not included as offsetting amount.

In addition to the derivative instruments noted above, the Company’s pipeline of loans held for sale at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, included $31.3 million and $46.2 million, respectively, of in process loans whose terms included interest rate locks to borrowers, which are considered free-standing derivative instruments whose fair values are not material to our financial condition or results of operations.

19.     FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments”. This guidance amends existing guidance to improve accounting standards for financial instruments including clarification and simplification of accounting and disclosure requirements and the requirement for public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. The Company adopted the guidance effective July 1, 2018.  Upon adoption, the fair value of the Company’s loan portfolio is now presented using an exit price method.

 

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values: 

 

 

Level 1:

  

Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

 

 

Level 2:

  

Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include 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, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, market data by correlation or other means.

 

 

Level 3:

  

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

 

 

Assets Measured on a Recurring Basis:

The following methods and significant assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019:

Investment Securities Available for Sale

The majority of the Company’s available for sale investment securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the securities’ terms and conditions, among other things.  From time to time, the Company validates prices supplied by the independent pricing service by comparison to prices obtained from third-party sources or derived using internal models.

The Company held one trust preferred security whose fair value of $1.0 million at December 31, 2019 was determined using Level 3 inputs.  For the periods ended December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, management has been unable to obtain a market quote for this security.  Consequently, the security’s fair value as reported at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, is based upon the present value of expected future cash flows assuming the security continues to meet all of its payment obligations and utilizing a discount rate based upon the security’s contractual interest rate.

Derivatives

The Company has contracted with a third party vendor to provide periodic valuations for its interest rate derivatives to determine the fair value of its interest rate caps and swaps. The vendor utilizes standard valuation methodologies applicable to interest rate derivatives such as discounted cash flow analysis and extensions of the Black-Scholes model. Such valuations are based upon readily observable market data and are therefore considered Level 2 valuations by the Company.

In addition to the financial instruments noted above, at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, the Company’s pipeline of loans held for sale included $31.3 million and $46.2 million, respectively, of in process loans whose terms included interest rate locks to borrowers which are considered free-standing derivative instruments whose fair values are not material to our financial condition or results of operations.  Given the short-term nature of the commitments and their immateriality to the statements of condition and operations, the Company assumes no change in the fair value of these derivative instruments during their outstanding period.

Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis:

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019:

Impaired Loans

An impaired loan is evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired at the lower of cost or fair value. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing the loan and is classified at a Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with the FASB’s guidance on accounting by creditors for impairment of a loan with the fair value estimated using the fair value of the collateral reduced by estimated disposal costs.  Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceeds the recorded investments in such loans. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

 

- 40 -


Other Real Estate Owned  

Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is recorded at estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs when acquired, thus establishing a new cost basis. Fair value is generally based on independent appraisals. These appraisals include adjustments to comparable assets based on the appraisers’ market knowledge and experience.  When an asset is acquired, the excess of the loan balance over fair value, less estimated selling costs, is charged to the allowance for loan losses. If further declines in the estimated fair value of the asset occur, a write-down is recorded through expense. The valuation of foreclosed assets is subjective in nature and may be adjusted in the future because of changes in economic conditions.

The fair value of impaired loans is generally determined based on an independent appraisal of the fair value of a loan’s underlying collateral.

(2)

The fair value basis of impaired loans and other real estate owned is adjusted to reflect management’s estimates of selling costs including, but not necessarily limited to, real estate brokerage commissions and title transfer fees.

(3)

The fair value basis of other real estate owned is generally determined based upon the lower of an independent appraisal of the property’s fair value or the applicable listing price or contracted sales price.

 

At December 31, 2019, impaired loans valued using Level 3 inputs comprised loans with principal balances totaling $3.3 million and valuation allowances of $12,000 reflecting fair values of $3.3 million. By comparison, at June 30, 2019, impaired loans valued using Level 3 inputs comprised loans with principal balances totaling $3.9 million and valuation allowances of $31,000 reflecting fair values of $3.9 million.

Once a loan is foreclosed, the fair value of the other real estate owned continues to be evaluated based upon the fair value of the repossessed real estate originally securing the loan.  At December 31, 2019, the Company held other real estate owned totaling $178,000 whose carrying value was written down utilizing Level 3 inputs.  At June 30, 2019, the Company held no other real estate owned whose carrying value was written down utilizing Level 3 inputs.

Commitments. The fair value of commitments to fund credit lines and originate or participate in loans held in portfolio or loans held for sale is estimated using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed rate loan commitments, including those relating to loans held for sale that are considered derivative instruments for financial statement reporting purposes, the fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest and the committed rates. The carrying value, represented by the net deferred fee arising from the unrecognized commitment, and the fair value, determined by discounting the remaining contractual fee over the term of the commitment using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar credit risk, is not considered material for disclosure.

Limitations. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no fair value exists for a significant portion of the financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

The fair value estimates are based on existing on-and-off balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to value anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Other significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial assets and liabilities include premises and equipment, and advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance. In addition, the ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of the estimates.

Finally, reasonable comparability between financial institutions may not be likely due to the wide range of permitted valuation techniques and numerous estimates which must be made given the absence of active secondary markets for many of the financial instruments. This lack of uniform valuation methodologies introduces a greater degree of subjectivity to these estimated fair values.

21.     REVENUE RECOGNITION

Effective July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, "ASC 606”), which (i) creates a single framework for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers that fall within its scope and (ii) revises when it is appropriate to recognize a gain (loss) from the transfer of nonfinancial assets, such as OREO. The majority of the Company’s revenues come from interest income and other sources, including loans, leases, securities, and derivatives that are outside the scope of ASC 606. The Company’s services that fall within the scope of ASC 606 are presented within non-interest income and are recognized as revenue as the Company satisfies its obligation to the customer. Services within the scope of ASC 606 include deposit service charges on deposits, interchange income, and the sale of OREO.

The Company, using a modified retrospective transition approach, determined that there was no cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as a result of adopting the new standard, nor did the standard have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements including the timing or amounts of revenue recognized.

All of the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 is recognized within non-interest income. The following table presents the Company’s sources of non-interest income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.  Sources of revenue outside the scope of ASC 606 are noted as such.

Not within the scope of ASC 606.

A description of the Company’s revenue streams accounted for under ASC 606 is as follows:

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts

The Company earns fees from deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, and ACH fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed at the point in the time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer’s account balance.

- 46 -


Gains/Losses on Sales of OREO

The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of OREO when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. Gain/Losses on the sales of OREO falls within the scope of ASC 606, if the Company finances the transaction.  Under ASC 606, if the Company finances the sale of OREO to the buyer, the Company is required to assess whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether the collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Company adjusts the transaction price and related gain (loss) on sale if a significant financing component is present. Generally, the Company does not finance the sale of OREO properties.

Interchange Income

The Company earns interchange fees from debit and credit card holder transactions conducted through various payment networks. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided by an outsourced technology solution.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may include certain forward-looking statements based on current management expectations. Such forward-looking statements may be identified by reference to a future period or periods or by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may”, “will”, “believe”, “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “continue”, or similar terms or variations on those terms, or the negative of those terms. The actual results of the Company could differ materially from those management expectations.  This includes statements regarding the planned merger of MSB Financial Corp. (“MSBF”) with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Factors that could cause future results to vary from current management expectations include, but are not limited to, the inability to obtain approvals and/or meet the other closing conditions required to close the Merger in a timely manner, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government, changes in tax policies, rates and regulations of federal, state and local tax authorities and failure to integrate or profitably operate acquired businesses. Additional potential factors include changes in interest rates, deposit flows, cost of funds, demand for loan products and financial services, competition and changes in the quality or composition of loan and investment portfolios of the Company. Other factors that could cause future results to vary from current management expectations include changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, and other economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company’s operations, markets, products, services and prices.  Further description of the risks and uncertainties to the business are included in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and under Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to release publicly the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Proposed Acquisition of MSBF

On December 18, 2019, the Company and MSBF, the holding company for Millington Bank, announced that the companies had entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which the Company will acquire MSBF. Consideration will be paid to MSBF stockholders in a combination of stock and cash. Under the terms of merger agreement MSBF will merge with and into the Company and each outstanding share of MSBF common stock will be exchanged for 1.3 shares of the Company’s common stock or $18.00 in cash. MSBF stockholders may elect cash or stock, or a combination thereof, subject to proration to ensure that, in the aggregate, 10% of MSBF shares will be converted into cash and 90% of MSBF shares will be converted into the Company’s common stock. Upon closing, the Company’s stockholders holders will own approximately 94% of the combined company and MSBF stockholders will own approximately 6% of the combined company.

As of December 31, 2019, MSBF had approximately $593.1 million of assets, gross loans of $513.7 million and deposits of $472.8 million and operated four New Jersey branches located in Somerset and Morris counties. The required approvals to complete this transaction include MSBF shareholder approval, regulatory approval, and the effectiveness of the registration statement to be filed by the Company with respect to the common stock to be issued in the transaction. The Merger is expected to close during the second calendar quarter of 2020.

 

Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019

Executive Summary.  Total assets decreased by $24.4 million to $6.61 billion at December 31, 2019 from $6.63 billion at June 30, 2019.  The net decrease in total assets primarily reflected decreases in the balance of net loans receivable and loans held-for-sale that were partially offset by increases in investment securities, cash and cash equivalents and other assets.

Investment Securities.  Investment securities classified as available for sale increased by $687.9 million to $1.40 billion at December 31, 2019 from $714.3 million at June 30, 2019.  The net increase in the portfolio largely reflected the adoption of ASU 2019-04 on July 1, 2019, upon which the Company reclassified $537.7 million of investment securities from held to maturity to available for sale.  In addition, the net increase in the portfolio reflected security purchases totaling $216.0 million during the six months ended December 31, 2019 and a $7.3 million increase in the fair value of the portfolio to a net unrealized gain of $9.3 million at December 31, 2019 from a net unrealized gain of $2.0 million at June 30, 2019.  The net increase in the portfolio was partially offset by security sales totaling $3.7 million and $69.5 million in cash repayment of principal, net of premium amortization and discount accretion.

Investment securities classified as held to maturity decreased by $540.6 million to $36.1 million at December 31, 2019 from $576.7 million at June 30, 2019.  The decrease in held to maturity securities largely reflected the adoption of ASU 2019-04, as noted above. The decrease in the portfolio also reflected cash repayment of principal, net of discount accretion and premium amortization, totaling $2.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.

Based on its evaluation, management has concluded that no other-than-temporary impairment was present within the investment portfolio as of December 31, 2019 or June 30, 2019.  Additional information regarding investment securities as of those dates is presented in Note 8, Note 9 and Note 10 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Loans Held-for-Sale. Our residential lending team continues to originate residential mortgage loans designated for sale into the secondary market thereby augmenting our sources of non-interest income through the recognition of loan sale gains.  Loans held-for-sale totaled $6.0 million at December 31, 2019 as compared to $12.3 million at June 30, 2019 and are reported separately from the balance of net loans receivable as of those dates.  During the six months ended December 31, 2019, we sold $126.4 million of residential mortgage loans resulting in net sale gains totaling $1.3 million.  

Net Loans Receivable.  Loans receivable, net of unamortized premiums, deferred costs and the allowance for loan losses, decreased by $183.9 million to $4.46 billion at December 31, 2019 from $4.65 billion at June 30, 2019.  The decrease in net loans receivable was primarily attributable to elevated levels of loan prepayment activity outpacing new loan origination and purchase volume during the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The detail of the changes in loan portfolio is presented below:

Residential mortgage loan origination volume for the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding loans held-for-sale, totaled $132.1 million, comprising $122.8 million of one- to four-family first mortgage loan originations and $9.3 million of home equity loan and line of credit originations.  Residential mortgage loan originations for the period were augmented with the purchase of one- to four-family first mortgage loans totaling $2.7 million.

Commercial loan origination volume for the six months ended December 31, 2019 totaled $94.9 million, which comprised $70.8 million of commercial mortgage loan originations augmented by $21.7 million of commercial business loan originations and construction loan disbursements totaling $2.4 million.  Commercial loan originations were augmented with the funding of purchased loans totaling $31.6 million during the six months ended December 31, 2019.

Additional information about the Company’s loans at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 is presented in Note 11 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Nonperforming Loans.  Nonperforming loans increased by $1.7 million to $22.0 million, or 0.49% of total loans at December 31, 2019, from $20.3 million, or 0.43% of total loans at June 30, 2019.  Nonperforming loans generally include those loans reported as 90 days and over past due while still accruing and loans reported as nonaccrual with such balances totaling $19,000 and $21.9 million, respectively, at December 31, 2019.  

Additional information about the Company’s nonperforming loans at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 is presented in Note 12 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Allowance for Loan Losses.  During the six months ended December 31, 2019, the balance of the allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) decreased by $2.3 million to $30.9 million at December 31, 2019 from $33.3 million, at June 30, 2019, resulting in an ALLL to total loans ratio of 0.68% and 0.70% as of those dates, respectively. The decrease resulted from a loan loss provision reversal of $2.2 million during the six months ended December 31, 2019 coupled with charge-offs and net of recoveries totaling $90,000 during that same period.

The portion of the allowance for loan losses attributable to loans individually evaluated for impairment decreased by $18,000 to $13,000 at December 31, 2019 from $31,000 at June 30, 2019.  This balance reflected an allowance for impairment on $187,000 of impaired loans while an additional $27.3 million of impaired loans had no allowance.  By comparison, the balance at June 30, 2019 reflected an allowance for impairment on $363,000 of impaired loans while an additional $24.2 million of impaired loans had no allowance for impairment.

The portion of the allowance for loan losses attributable to loans collectively evaluated for impairment decreased by $2.3 million to $30.9 million at December 31, 2019 from $33.2 million at June 30, 2019.  This decrease was attributable to changes in a combination of historical and environmental loss factors.  With regard to historical loss factors, our loan portfolio experienced an annualized net charge-off rate of 0.00% for the six months ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of two basis points from the 0.02% rate for the year ended June 30, 2019.  The annual average net charge off rate for June 30, 2019 had previously decreased by one basis point from 0.03% for the prior year ended June 30, 2018.  The effect of the net change in historical loss factors resulted in a decrease in the applicable portion of the allowance attributable to these factors of approximately $635,000 to $1.5 million at December 31, 2019 from $2.1 million at June 30, 2019.  

With regard to environmental loss factors, the Company made minor adjustments to such factors during the six months ended December 31, 2019 resulting in a $1.7 decrease in the portion of the allowance for loan losses attributable to environmental loss factors to $29.4 million at December 31, 2019 from $31.1 million at June 30, 2019.  This decrease was largely attributable to the decrease in the balance of the unimpaired portion of the loan portfolio coupled with the noted adjustments to environmental loss factors.

The calculation of probable incurred losses within a loan portfolio and the resulting allowance for loan losses is subject to estimates and assumptions that are susceptible to significant revisions as more information becomes available and as events or conditions effecting individual borrowers and the marketplace as a whole change over time.  Future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary if economic and market conditions deteriorate in the future from those currently prevalent in the marketplace.  In addition, our banking regulators, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our loan and foreclosed real estate portfolios and the related allowance for loan losses and valuation allowance for foreclosed real estate.  The regulators may require the allowance for loan losses to be increased based on their review of information available at the time of the examination, which may negatively affect our earnings.  Finally, changes in accounting standards promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, such as those discussed in Note 7 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements regarding the use of a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to calculate credit losses, may require increases in the allowance for loan losses upon adoption of the applicable accounting standard.

Additional information about the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 is presented in Note 12 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Other Assets.  The aggregate balance of other assets, including premises and equipment, FHLB stock, interest receivable, goodwill, core deposit intangibles, bank owned life insurance, deferred income taxes, other real estate owned and other assets, increased by $15.5 million to $662.6 million at December 31, 2019 from $647.1 million at June 30, 2019.  

- 50 -


 

The increase in other assets primarily reflected the adoption of a new accounting standard that requires leases to be recognized on our Consolidated Statements of Condition as a right of use asset and lease liability. Our operating lease right of use asset totaled approximately $17.0 million as of December 31, 2019.  The remaining increases and decreases in other assets for the six months ended December 31, 2019 generally reflected normal operating fluctuations in their respective balances.

Additional information about the Company’s operating lease right of use asset at December 31, 2019 is presented in Note 13 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Deposits.  Total deposits increased by $41.2 million to $4.19 billion at December 31, 2019 from $4.15 billion at June 30, 2019.  The net increase in deposit balances reflected a $38.2 million increase in interest-bearing deposits coupled with a $3.0 million increase in non-interest-bearing deposits.  The increase in interest-bearing deposits reflected increases in interest-bearing checking accounts and savings accounts totaling $217.0 million and $38.7 million, respectively, which were partially offset by a decrease in the balance of certificates of deposits totaling $217.5 million.

The net increase in deposit balances for the six months ended December 31, 2019 was comprised of changes in the balances of retail deposits as well as non-retail deposits acquired through various wholesale channels.  In conjunction with our ongoing strategy to realign our deposit base in favor of core deposits, retail deposits increased by $232.4 million to $4.08 billion at December 31, 2019 from $3.85 billion at June 30, 2019 while wholesale deposits decreased $191.2 million to $110.7 million at December 31, 2019 from $301.9 million at June 30, 2019.

The balance of wholesale deposits, as of December 31, 2019, included $42.1 million of brokered certificates of deposit and $68.6 million of listing service time deposits.

Additional information about the Company’s deposits at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 is presented in Note 14 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Borrowings.  The balance of borrowings decreased by $46.9 million to $1.28 billion at December 31, 2019 from $1.32 billion at June 30, 2019.  The decrease in borrowings primarily reflected maturities of $30.0 million of long-term FHLB advances, a $15.0 million decrease in overnight borrowings and a $2.7 million decrease in depositor sweep account balances.

Additional information about the Company’s borrowings at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 is presented in Note 15 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Other Liabilities.  The balance of other liabilities increased by $13.9 million to $52.0 million at December 31, 2019 from $38.1 million at June 30, 2019. The increase in other liabilities primarily reflected the adoption of a new accounting standard that requires leases to be recognized on our Consolidated Statements of Condition as a right of use asset and lease liability, as noted above.  Our operating lease liability totaled approximately $17.5 million as of December 31, 2019.

Additional information about the Company’s operating lease liability at December 31, 2019 is presented in Note 13 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Stockholders’ Equity.  Stockholders’ equity decreased by $32.6 million to $1.09 billion at December 31, 2019 from $1.13 billion at June 30, 2019 largely reflecting the impact of our share repurchases during the first six months of fiscal 2020.  In March 2019 we announced our fourth share repurchase program through which we authorized the repurchase of 9,218,324 shares, or 10%, of our outstanding shares as of that date.

During the six months ended December 31, 2019, we repurchased 3,900,051 shares of our common stock at a total cost of $52.3 million and an average cost of $13.40 per share. The shares of common stock repurchased during the period represented 42.3% of the total shares to be repurchased under our fourth share repurchase program. Cumulatively, the Company has repurchased a total of 6,982,294 shares or 75.7% of the shares to be repurchased under its fourth share repurchase program at a total cost of $93.6 million and at an average cost of $13.40 per share.

The net decrease in stockholders’ equity was partially offset by net income of $22.0 million, or $0.26 per share, for the six months ended December 31, 2019 from which we declared and paid regular quarterly cash dividends totaling $0.13 per share. Cash dividends declared and paid during the six months ended December 31, 2019 reduced stockholders’ equity by $10.8 million.

The change in stockholders’ equity also reflected a $5.1 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive income during the six months ended December 31, 2019.

Analysis of Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents the difference between income we earn on our interest-earning assets and the expense we pay on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends on the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned on such assets and paid on such liabilities.

Average Balance Sheet and Yields. The following tables reflect the components of the average balance sheet and of net interest income for the periods indicated. We derived the average yields and costs by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented with daily balances used to derive average balances.  No tax equivalent adjustments have been made to yield or costs.  Non-accrual loans were included in the calculation of average balances, however interest receivable on these loans has been fully reserved for and therefore not included in interest income. The yields and costs set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense and exclude the impact of prepayment penalties, which are recorded to non-interest income.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018

Net Income.  Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2019 was $10.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share compared to $10.8 million, or $0.12 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2018. The decrease in net income reflected a decrease in net-interest income, as detailed above, that was partially offset by an increase in non-interest income and decreases in non-interest expense and the provision for loan losses.  Collectively, these factors contributed to an overall decrease in pre-tax income and a corresponding decrease in the provision for income taxes.

Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 was impacted by a non-recurring increase of $153,000 in non-interest expense and a non-recurring decrease of $236,000 in non-interest income which were recognized in conjunction with the Company’s previously completed branch consolidations.  In addition, net income reflected the Company’s recognition of certain merger-related expenses totaling $219,000 related to its proposed acquisition of MSBF, as noted earlier.  

Net Interest Income.  Net interest income decreased by $4.7 million to $34.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease between the comparative periods resulted from a decrease of $2.8 million in interest income coupled with an increase of $1.9 million in interest expense.

Net interest rate spread declined by 27 basis points to 2.04% for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in the net interest rate spread reflected a 12 basis points decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets to 3.79% and a 15 basis points increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 1.75%.

The factors resulting in the decrease in our net interest rate spread also affected our net interest margin.  In total, our net interest margin decreased 27 basis points to 2.29% for the three months ended December 31, 2019.

Interest Income.  Total interest income decreased by $2.8 million to $57.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The decrease in interest income partly reflected a $106.1 million decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets and a 12 basis point decrease in their yield to 3.79%.  Interest income on loans decreased by $3.4 million to $45.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The decrease in interest income on loans was primarily attributable to a $211.5 million decrease in the average balance of loans to $4.55 billion during the three months ended December 31, 2019. The average yield on loans decreased 11 basis points to 4.01%.

The increase in interest income on interest-earning assets, excluding loans, was due to the increase in interest income on taxable investment securities.  The increase in interest income on taxable investment securities was primarily attributable to an $85.8 increase in the their average balance while the average yield remained stable at 3.12% for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.  The average yield on other interest earning assets decreased by 155 basis points to 4.11% for the three months ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in the average yield on the balances of our interest-bearing deposits at other banks and FHLB stock holdings.

Interest Expense.  Total interest expense increased by $1.9 million to $22.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The increase in interest expense reflected a 15 basis point increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 1.75% partially offset by a $15.2 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities to $5.15 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2019.

Interest expense attributed to deposits increased $2.9 million to $15.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The increase in interest expense was attributable to increases in the average balance and average cost of interest-bearing deposits.  The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $107.3 million to $3.86 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2019, while the average cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 26 basis points to 1.62% for that same period.

Interest expense attributed to borrowings decreased by $961,000 to $7.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The decrease in interest expense was attributable to a decrease in the average balance and a decrease in the average cost of borrowings. The average balance of borrowings decreased $122.4 million to $1.29 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2019 while the average cost of borrowings decreased 8 basis points to 2.17% for that same period.

Provision for Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses decreased by $2.4 million to a provision reversal of $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to a provision expense of $971,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2018.  The decrease largely reflected the effects of a decrease in the outstanding balance of the loan portfolio that was collectively evaluated for impairment during the quarter ended December 31, 2019, compared to a net increase in that portion of the portfolio for the quarter ended December 31, 2018.

Additional information regarding the allowance for loan losses and the associated provisions recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 is presented in Note 12 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements as well as the Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019.  

Non-Interest Income.  Non-interest income increased by $1.2 million to $4.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019, reflecting the effects of several offsetting factors.

Fees and service charges increased by $887,000 to $2.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The increase primarily reflected an increase in loan-related fees attributable to an increase in commercial loan prepayment activity.

We recognized a net gain of $11,000 on the sale and call of securities during the three months ended December 31, 2019 while there were no such gains recorded during the earlier comparative period.  

Gain on sale of loans increased by $567,000 to $668,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The increase in loan sale gains primarily reflected an increase in the volume of residential mortgage loans originated and sold between comparative periods.

We recognized a net loss of $28,000 related to the write down and sale of other real estate owned (“OREO”) during the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to a net gain of $36,000 during the earlier comparative period.

Miscellaneous non-interest income decreased by $149,000, to a net loss of $111,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The decrease primarily reflected $236,000 of non-recurring losses on asset disposals recognized in conjunction with the Company’s previously completed branch consolidations.  

The remaining changes in the other components of non-interest income between comparative periods generally reflected normal operating fluctuations within those line items.

Non-Interest Expenses.  Total non-interest expense decreased by $843,000 to $26.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.

Salaries and employee benefits expense decreased by $525,000 to $15.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The net decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense reflected decreases in wages and salaries attributable to the reduction in staffing levels associated with the previously completed branch consolidations as well as reductions in bonus compensation, employee stock-based compensation and payroll tax expense. These decreases were partially offset by increases in employee severance, employee benefit expense and ESOP expense.

Net occupancy expense of premises increased by $321,000 to $3.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  This increase was largely attributable to $331,000 of lease termination costs recognized in conjunction with branch consolidations.

Equipment and systems expense decreased by $331,000 to $3.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  This decrease was largely attributable to a decrease of $395,000 in core processing and $138,000 in telecommunication delivery channel expense partially offset by increases in other technology infrastructure costs.  The reduction in core processing expense was attributable to $551,000 of non-recurring information technology expenses recognized by the Company, in the earlier comparative period, in conjunction with the conversion and integration of the core processing system of an acquired institution.

Advertising and marketing expense increased by $103,000 to $890,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  This increase largely reflected changes in advertising expenses across a variety of advertising formats including outdoor and electronic media reflecting normal fluctuations in the timing of certain campaigns supporting our loan and deposit growth initiatives.

For the three months ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded no expense associated with FDIC insurance premiums compared to $421,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2018.  No expense was recorded in the current period as a result of the FDIC’s Deposit Insurance Fund Reserve Ratio having reached a pre-established threshold defined by federal regulation.  Upon reaching this threshold qualifying banks with total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion were awarded assessment credits to be utilized towards their FDIC insurance premiums.

Directors’ compensation expense increased by $23,000 to $769,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The increase in expense primarily reflected an increase in director stock-based compensation.

Merger-related expenses increased by $219,000 and were related to the Company’s pending acquisition of MSBF, as noted above.

Miscellaneous expense decreased by $232,000 to $3.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in expense was largely attributable to the recovery of asset write-down costs totaling $288,000 which were recognized in conjunction with branch consolidations. The decrease in expense also reflected decreases in consulting expense, education expense and OREO expense that were partially offset by increases in loan expense and bad debt expense.

Provision for Income Taxes.  The provision for income taxes decreased by $102,000 to $3.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.  The decrease in income tax expense primarily reflected the underlying differences in the level of the taxable portion of pre-tax income between comparative periods. Our effective tax rates for the three month periods ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were 25.0% and 25.3% which, in relation to statutory income tax rates, reflected the effects of recurring sources of tax-favored income included in pre-tax income.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018

Net Income.  Net income for the six months ended December 31, 2019 was $22.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share compared to $21.9 million, or $0.23 per diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2018. The increase in net income reflected an increase in non-interest income, a decrease in the provision for loan losses and a decrease in non-interest expense that were partially offset by a decrease in net interest income, as detailed above.  Collectively, these factors contributed to an overall increase in pre-tax income and a corresponding increase in the provision for income taxes.

Net income for the six months ended December 31, 2019 was impacted by a non-recurring increase of $720,000 in non-interest expense and a non-recurring decrease of $342,000 in non-interest income which were recognized in conjunction with the Company’s previously completed branch consolidations.  In addition, net income reflected the Company’s recognition of certain merger-related expenses totaling $219,000 related to its proposed acquisition of MSBF, as noted above.

Net Interest Income.  Net interest income decreased by $8.2 million to $71.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease between the comparative periods resulted from a decrease of $1.1 million in interest income and an increase of $7.1 million in interest expense.

Net interest rate spread declined by 28 basis points to 2.09% for the six months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in the net interest rate spread reflected a 3 basis points decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets to 3.87% and a 25 basis points increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 1.78%.

The factors resulting in the decrease in our net interest rate spread also affected our net interest margin.  In total, our net interest margin decreased 26 basis points to 2.36% for the six months ended December 31, 2019.

Interest Income.  Total interest income decreased by $1.1 million to $117.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The decrease in interest income partly reflected a $19.7 million decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets and a three basis point decrease in their yield to 3.87%.  Interest income on loans decreased by $2.2 million to $94.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in interest income on loans was primarily attributable to a $58.8 million decrease in the average balance of loans to $4.60 billion during the six months ended December 31, 2019. The average yield on loans decreased five basis points to 4.09%.

- 56 -


 

The increase in interest income on interest-earning assets, excluding loans, was primarily due to the increase in interest income on taxable investment securities.  The average yield on taxable investment securities increased by 11 basis points to 3.18% for the six months ended December 31, 2019, primarily attributable to an increase in the yield on our floating rate investment securities. The average yield on other interest earning assets decreased by 72 basis points to 4.10% for the six months ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in the average yield on the balances of our interest-bearing deposits at other banks and FHLB stock holdings.

Interest Expense.  Total interest expense increased by $7.1 million to $45.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The increase in interest expense partly reflected an $80.2 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities to $5.15 billion for the six months ended December 31, 2019, while also reflecting a 25 basis point increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 1.78%.

Interest expense attributed to deposits increased $8.4 million to $31.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The increase in this interest expense was attributable to increases in the average balance and average cost of interest-bearing deposits.  The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $193.4 million to $3.86 billion for the six months ended December 31, 2019, while the average cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 37 basis points to 1.64% for that same period.

Interest expense attributed to borrowings decreased by $1.3 million to $14.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The decrease in this interest expense was attributable to a decrease in the average balance and a decrease in the average cost of borrowings. The average balance of borrowings decreased $113.2 million to $1.29 billion for the six months ended December 31, 2019, while the average cost of borrowings decreased one basis point to 2.19% for that same period.

Provision for Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses decreased by $5.3 million to a provision reversal of $2.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019 compared to a provision expense of $3.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2018.  The decrease largely reflected the effects of a decrease in the outstanding balance of the loan portfolio that was collectively evaluated for impairment during the six months ended December 31, 2019, compared to a net increase in that portion of the portfolio for the six months ended December 31, 2018.

Additional information regarding the allowance for loan losses and the associated provisions recognized during the six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 is presented in Note 12 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements as well as the Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019.  

Non-Interest Income.  Non-interest income increased by $2.0 million to $8.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019, reflecting the effects of several offsetting factors.

Fees and service charges increased by $1.2 million to $3.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The increase primarily reflected an increase in loan-related fees attributable to an increase in commercial loan prepayment activity.

We recognized a net loss of $3,000 on the sale and call of securities during the six months ended December 31, 2019 while there were no such transactions recorded during the earlier comparative period.  

Gain on sale of loans increased by $1.0 million to $1.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019. The increase in loan sale gains primarily reflected an increase in the volume of residential mortgage loans originated and sold between comparative periods.

The Company incurred a net loss of $28,000 related to the write down and sale of OREO during the six months ended December 31, 2019 compared to a net loss of $14,000 during the earlier comparative period.

Miscellaneous non-interest income decreased by $227,000 to a net loss of $106,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The decrease primarily reflected $342,000 of non-recurring losses on asset disposals recognized in conjunction with the Company’s previously completed branch consolidations.  

The remaining changes in the other components of non-interest income between comparative periods generally reflected normal operating fluctuations within those line items.

- 57 -


 

Non-Interest Expenses.  Total non-interest expense decreased by $1.1 million to $52.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.

Salaries and employee benefits expense decreased by $390,000 to $31.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The net decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense reflected decreases in incentive compensation, employee overtime, bonus, and employee stock-based compensation expenses. These decreases were partially offset by increases in wages and salaries, employee severance, employee benefit expense, ESOP expense and payroll taxes.

Net occupancy expense of premises increased by $554,000 to $6.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  This increase was largely attributable to $517,000 of non-recurring lease termination costs recognized in conjunction with the branch consolidations coupled with an increase in facility lease expenses arising from costs associated with forthcoming branch additions and relocations.  Partially offsetting these increases were decreases in ongoing facility repairs and maintenance expenses.

Equipment and systems expense decreased by $168,000 to $6.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  This decrease in expense was largely attributable to a decrease of $381,000 in core processing and $216,000 in telecommunication delivery channel expense partially offset by increases in other technology infrastructure costs.  The reduction in core processing expense was attributable to $551,000 of non-recurring information technology expenses recognized by the Company, in the earlier comparative period, in conjunction with the conversion and integration of the core processing system of an acquired institution.

Advertising and marketing expense increased by $61,000 to $1.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  This increase largely reflected changes in advertising expenses across a variety of advertising formats including outdoor and electronic media reflecting normal fluctuations in the timing of certain campaigns supporting our loan and deposit growth initiatives.

For the six months ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded no expense associated with FDIC insurance premiums compared to $886,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2018.  No expense was recorded in the current period as a result of the FDIC’s Deposit Insurance Fund Reserve Ratio having reached a pre-established threshold defined by federal regulation.  Upon reaching this threshold qualifying banks with total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion were awarded assessment credits to be utilized towards their FDIC insurance premiums.

Miscellaneous expense decreased by $481,000 to $6.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in expense was largely attributable to the recovery of asset write-down costs totaling $288,000 which were recognized in conjunction with branch consolidations.  The decrease in expense also reflected decreases in consulting expense and audit and accounting fees that were partially offset by increases in loan expense.

Provision for Income Taxes.  The provision for income taxes increased by $56,000 to $7.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The increase in income tax expense primarily reflected the underlying differences in the level of the taxable portion of pre-tax income between comparative periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of our operating, investing and financing activities. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, cash flows from investment securities and loans receivable and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization and maturity of loans and investment securities are relatively predictable sources of funds, general interest rates, economic conditions and competition greatly influence deposit flows and prepayments on loans and securities.

The Bank is required to have enough investments that qualify as liquid assets in order to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure a safe operation. The balance of our cash and cash equivalents increased by $2.9 million to $41.8 million at December 31, 2019 from $38.9 million at June 30, 2019.  Notwithstanding the increase in the balances of cash and cash equivalents during the period, the Company continues its ongoing effort to enhance earnings by generally limiting the level of lower-yielding, short-term liquid assets to the levels needed to meet its day-to-day funding obligations and overall liquidity risk management objectives.  Short-term investments qualifying as liquid assets are supplemented by our portfolio of securities classified as available for sale whose balances at December 31, 2019 included $1.40 billion of investment securities that can readily be sold if necessary.

At December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding commitments to originate and purchase loans totaling approximately $50.5 million while such commitments totaled $27.7 million at June 30, 2019.  As of those same dates, the Company’s pipeline of loans held for sale included $31.3 million and $46.2 million of loans in process whose terms included interest rate locks to borrowers that were paired with a non-binding, best-efforts, commitment to sell the loan to a buyer at a fixed price and within a predetermined timeframe after the sale commitment is established.

Construction loans in process and unused lines of credit were $5.1 million and $72.9 million, respectively, at December 31, 2019 compared to $3.9 million and $78.5 million, respectively, at June 30, 2019. The Company is also subject to the contingent liabilities resulting from letters of credit whose outstanding balances totaled $274,000 and $612,000 at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the customer. Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance-sheet instruments. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Deposits increased $41.2 million to $4.19 billion at December 31, 2019 from $4.15 billion at June 30, 2019.  The net increase in deposit balances reflected a $38.2 million increase in interest-bearing deposits coupled with a $3.0 million increase in non-interest-bearing deposits.  Borrowings from the FHLB of New York and other sources are generally available to supplement the Bank’s liquidity position and, to the extent that maturing deposits do not remain with us, management may replace such funds with borrowings.  As of December 31, 2019, the Bank’s outstanding balance of FHLB advances, excluding fair value adjustments, totaled $1.26 billion.  In addition to FHLB advances, we have other borrowings totaling $6.1 million at December 31, 2019 representing collateralized overnight sweep account balances linked to customer demand deposits and $15.0 million in other overnight borrowings.

We have the capacity to borrow additional funds from the FHLB, through a line of credit or by taking short-term or long-term advances. Such borrowings are an option available to management if funding needs change or to modify the effective duration of liabilities. As of December 31, 2019, the Bank’s borrowing potential at the FHLB of New York was $1.58 billion without pledging additional collateral.  We also have the capacity to borrow additional funds, on an unsecured basis, via lines of credit we have established with a variety of other financial institutions.  As of December 31, 2019, the available borrowing capacity under those lines of credit totaled $655.0 million.

Consistent with its goals to operate a sound and profitable financial organization, the Bank actively seeks to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution in accordance with regulatory standards. As of December 31, 2019, the Company and the Bank exceeded all capital requirements of federal banking regulators.

As a result of the recently enacted Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act, the federal banking agencies proposed a rule to establish for institutions with assets of less than $10 billion that meet other specified criteria a community bank leverage ratio (the ratio of a bank’s tangible equity capital to average total consolidated assets) of 9% that such institutions may elect to utilize in lieu of the generally applicable leverage and risk-based capital requirements noted above.  A “qualifying community bank” with capital exceeding 9% will be considered compliant with all applicable regulatory capital and leverage requirements, including the requirement to be “well capitalized.  The rule has been adopted in final form and the framework will first be available for use in the Bank’s March 31, 2020 Call Report.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of our business of investing in loans and securities we are a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk.  These financial instruments include significant purchase commitments, such as commitments related to capital expenditure plans and commitments to extend credit to meet the financing needs of our customers. We had no significant off-balance sheet commitments for capital expenditures as of December 31, 2019.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of the expected impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements that have yet to be adopted by the Company, please refer to Note 7 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

The majority of our assets and liabilities are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Consequently, interest rate risk is a significant form of business risk that we must manage.  Interest rate risk is generally defined in regulatory nomenclature as the risk to earnings or capital arising from the movement of interest rates and arises from several risk factors including re-pricing risk, basis risk, yield curve risk and option risk.

We maintain an Asset/Liability Management (“ALM”) program in order manage our interest rate risk. The program is overseen by the Board of Directors through its Interest Rate Risk Management Committee.  The Board of Directors has assigned the responsibility for the operational aspects of the ALM program to our Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”).  The ALCO is a management committee comprising the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Lending Officer, Chief Credit Officer, Chief Banking Officer, Chief Risk Officer and Treasurer/Chief Investment Officer. Additional members of our management team may be asked to participate on the ALCO, as appropriate.

The quantitative analysis that we conduct measures interest rate risk from both a capital and earnings perspective. With regard to earnings, movements in interest rates and the shape of the yield curve significantly influence the amount of net interest income (“NII”) that we recognize.  Movements in market interest rates, and the effect of such movements on the risk factors noted above, significantly influence the spread between the interest earned on our interest-earning assets and the interest paid on our interest-bearing liabilities.  Our internal interest rate risk analysis calculates the sensitivity of our projected NII over a one year period utilizing a static balance sheet assumption through which incoming and outgoing asset and liability cash flows are reinvested into similar instruments. Product pricing and earning asset prepayment speeds are appropriately adjusted for each rate scenario.

With regard to capital, our internal interest rate risk analysis calculates the sensitivity of our Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”) ratio to movements in interest rates. EVE represents the present value of the expected cash flows from our assets less the present value of the expected cash flows arising from our liabilities adjusted for the value of off-balance sheet instruments.  EVE attempts to quantify our economic value using a discounted cash flow methodology while the EVE ratio reflects that value as a form of capital ratio.  The degree to which the EVE ratio changes for any hypothetical interest rate scenario from its base case measurement is a reflection of an institution’s sensitivity to interest rate risk.

For both earnings and capital at risk our interest rate risk analysis calculates a base case scenario that assumes no change in interest rates. The model then measures changes throughout a series of interest rate scenarios representing immediate and permanent, parallel shifts in the yield curve up and down 100, 200 and 300 basis points with additional scenarios modeled where appropriate. The model requires that interest rates remain positive for all points along the yield curve for each rate scenario which may preclude the modeling of certain falling rate scenarios during periods of lower market interest rates. The relatively low level of interest rates prevalent at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 precluded the modeling of certain falling rate scenarios.

There are numerous internal and external factors that may contribute to changes in our EVE ratio and its sensitivity.  Changes in the composition and allocation of our balance sheet, or utilization of off balance sheet instruments such as derivatives, can significantly alter the exposure to interest rate risk as quantified by the changes in the EVE sensitivity measures.  Changes to certain external factors, most notably changes in the level of market interest rates and overall shape of the yield curve, can also alter the projected cash flows of our interest-earning assets and interest-costing liabilities and the associated present values thereof.

Notwithstanding the rate change scenarios presented in the EVE and NII-based analyses above, future interest rates and their effect on net interest income are not predictable.  Computations of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, prepayments and deposit run-offs and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results.  Certain shortcomings are inherent in this type of computation.  Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of re-pricing, they may react at different times and in different degrees to changes in market interest rates.  The interest rate on certain types of assets and liabilities, such as demand deposits and savings accounts, may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates.  Certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgages, generally have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayments and early withdrawal levels could deviate significantly from those assumed in the analyses set forth above.  Additionally, an increase in credit risk may result as the ability of borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2019, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1.

At December 31, 2019, neither the Company nor the Bank were involved in any pending legal proceedings other than routine legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business, which involve amounts in the aggregate believed by management to be immaterial to the financial condition of the Company and the Bank.

ITEM 1A.

Risk Factors

The Risk Factors noted below are in addition to the Risk Factors previously disclosed under Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Risk Factors below relate to the planned Merger of MSBF and the Company.

 

The Merger may be terminated in accordance with its terms or the Merger may not be completed for other reasons, in which case we will not realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger. 

 

The merger agreement with MSBF is subject to a number of conditions that must be fulfilled in order to close. These conditions include MSBF shareholder approval, regulatory approval, the continued accuracy of certain representations and warranties by both parties and the performance by both parties of certain covenants and agreements.  In addition, under certain circumstances the parties may choose to terminate the merger agreement in accordance with its terms.  There can be no assurance that the conditions to closing the Merger will be fulfilled or that the Merger will be completed. If we do not complete the Merger, we will not realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger.

Regulatory approvals may not be received, may take longer than expected, or may impose conditions that are not presently anticipated or that could have an adverse effect on the combined company following the Merger.

 

Before the Merger and the bank merger may be completed, the Company and MSBF must obtain approvals (or waivers) from the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Department of Banking and Insurance of the State of New Jersey. Other approvals, waivers or consents from regulators may also be required. In determining whether to grant these approvals the regulators consider a variety of factors, including the regulatory standing of each party. An adverse development in either party’s regulatory standing or other factors could result in an inability to obtain approval or delay their receipt. These regulators may impose conditions on the completion of the Merger or the bank merger or require changes to the terms of the Merger or the bank merger. Such conditions or changes could have the effect of delaying or preventing completion of the Merger or the bank merger or imposing additional costs on or limiting the revenues of the combined company following the Merger and the bank merger, any of which might have an adverse effect on the combined company following the Merger.

 

The success of the Merger and integration of the Company and MSBF will depend on a number of uncertain factors.

 

The success of the Merger and the ability to realize the anticipated benefits will depend on a number of factors, including:

 

 

our ability to integrate the branches acquired from MSBF (which we refer to as the “acquired branches”) into our current operations;

 

 

our ability to limit the outflow of deposits held by customers of the acquired branches and to successfully retain and manage interest-earning assets acquired in the Merger;

 

 

our ability to control the incremental non-interest expense of the acquired branches in a manner that enables us to maintain a favorable overall efficiency ratio;

 

 

our ability to retain and attract the appropriate personnel to staff the acquired branches; and

 

 

our ability to earn acceptable levels of interest and non-interest income, including fee income, from the acquired branches.

 

- 66 -


 

Integrating the acquired branches will be an operation of significant size and expense, and may be affected by general market and economic conditions or government actions affecting the financial industry generally. Integration efforts will also likely divert our management’s attention and resources. We may not be able to integrate the acquired branches successfully, and the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of ongoing business, or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger. We may also encounter unexpected difficulties or costs during the integration that could adversely affect our earnings and financial condition, perhaps materially. Additionally, the operation of the acquired branches may adversely affect our existing profitability, we may not be able to achieve results in the future similar to those achieved by the existing banking business or we may not be able to manage growth resulting from the Merger effectively.

 

Combining the Company and MSBF may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected and the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the Merger may not be realized.

 

The Company and MSBF have operated and, until the completion of the Merger, will continue to operate, independently. The success of the Merger, including anticipated benefits and cost savings, will depend, in part, on the Company’s ability to successfully combine and integrate the businesses of the Company and MSBF in a manner that permits growth opportunities and does not materially disrupt the existing customer relations nor result in decreased revenues due to loss of customers. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of either company’s ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect the combined company’s ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the Merger. The loss of key employees could adversely affect the Company’s ability to successfully conduct its business, which could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial results and the value of its common stock. If the Company experiences difficulties with the integration process, the anticipated benefits of the Merger may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. As with any Merger of financial institutions, there also may be business disruptions that cause the Company and/or MSBF to lose customers or cause customers to remove their accounts from the Company and/or MSBF and move their business to competing financial institutions. Integration efforts between the two companies will also divert management attention and resources. These integration matters could have an adverse effect on each of MSBF and the Company during this transition period and for an undetermined period after completion of the Merger on the combined company.  In addition, the actual cost savings of the Merger could be less than anticipated.

 

The combined company may be unable to retain Company and/or MSBF personnel successfully after the Merger is completed.

 

The success of the Merger will depend in part on the combined company’s ability to retain the talents and dedication of key employees currently employed by the Company and MSBF. It is possible that these employees may decide not to remain with the Company or MSBF, as applicable, while the Merger is pending or with the combined company after the Merger is consummated. If key employees terminate their employment, or if an insufficient number of employees are retained to maintain effective operations, the combined company’s business activities may be adversely affected and management’s attention may be diverted from successfully integrating MSBF to hiring suitable replacements, all of which may cause the combined company’s business to suffer. In addition, the Company and MSBF may not be able to locate suitable replacements for any key employees who leave either company, or to offer employment to potential replacements on reasonable terms.

 

Failure to complete the Merger could negatively impact our stock prices, future business and financial results.

 

There can be no assurance that our announced Merger with MSBF will be completed. If the Merger is not completed, our ongoing business may be adversely affected and we will be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

 

 

We will be required to pay certain costs relating to the Merger, whether or not the Merger is completed, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, proxy solicitation and printing fees;

 

 

matters relating to the Merger may require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management, which could otherwise have been devoted to other opportunities that may have been beneficial to us as an independent company.

 

- 67 -


 

In addition, if the Merger is not completed, we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets and from customers and employees. We also could be subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the Merger or to proceedings commenced by us against MSBF seeking damages or to compel MSBF to perform its obligations under the merger agreement. These factors and similar risks could have an adverse effect on our results of operation, business and stock price.

 

Our stockholders will have a reduced ownership interest after the Merger and will exercise less influence over the combined organization.

 

Our stockholders currently have the right to vote in the election of members for our board of directors and on various other matters affecting us. Upon the completion of the Merger, our stockholders will own approximately 94% of stock in the combined company and MSBF stockholders will own approximately 6% of the combined company.
