Results of Operations
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018
Net income was $8.8 million and $10.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and March 31, 2018, respectively. Significant variances from the comparable prior year period are as follows: a $214,000 decrease in net interest income, a $909,000 increase in non-interest income, a $2.1 million increase in non-interest expense, and a $266,000 increase in income tax expense.
Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2019, decreased $214,000, or 0.8%, to $27.3 million, from $27.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as a 30 basis point decrease in our net interest margin to 2.63% more than offset a $390.1 million, or 10.2%, increase in our average interest-earning assets. The decrease in net interest margin was primarily due to the increased cost of our interest-bearing liabilities, which increased 49 basis points to 1.47% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from 0.98% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in our average interest-earning assets was due to increases in average loans outstanding of $86.1 million, average mortgage-backed securities of $141.3 million, average other securities of $155.5 million, and average interest-earning deposits in financial institutions of $10.2 million, partially offset by a decrease in average Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”) stock of $3.1 million. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2019, included loan prepayment income of $420,000 as compared to $628,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Yields earned on interest-earning assets increased 11 basis points to 3.80% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from 3.69% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, driven by higher yields in all asset classes.
The provision for loan losses remained relatively stable at $59,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $34,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as an improvement in qualitative factors offset an increase in provision from loan growth. Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2019, were $70,000 compared to net charge-offs of $22,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Non-interest income increased $909,000, or 37.8%, to $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in gains on securities transactions, net. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, securities gains, net, included gains of $1.1 million related to the Company’s trading portfolio, compared to gains of $106,000 in the comparative prior year period. The trading portfolio is utilized to fund the Company’s deferred compensation obligation to certain employees and directors of the Company's deferred compensation plan (the Plan). The participants of this Plan, at their election, defer a portion of their compensation. Gains and losses on trading securities have no effect on net income since participants benefit from, and bear the full risk of, changes in the trading securities market values. Therefore, the Company records an equal and offsetting amount in compensation expense, reflecting the change in the Company’s obligations under the Plan.
Non-interest expense increased $2.1 million, or 12.1%, to $19.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $17.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This is due primarily to a $1.9 million increase in employee compensation and benefits, $1.0 million of which is related to the Company's deferred compensation plan which is described above and has no effect on net income, with the remainder attributable to increased costs associated with new hires related to branch openings and new lending personnel, merit increases effective January 1, 2019, and higher medical benefit costs.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019, was 22.9% compared to 18.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, the increase being primarily due to lower excess tax benefits related to the exercise or vesting of equity awards. Excess tax benefits were $93,000 and $869,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2019, and March 31, 2018, respectively.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018
Net income was $8.8 million and $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively. Significant variances from the prior quarter are as follows: a $674,000 decrease in net interest income, a $548,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses, a $2.7 million increase in non-interest income, a $3.4 million increase in non-interest expense, and a $296,000 increase in income tax expense.
Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2019, decreased $674,000, or 2.4%, as a nine basis point decrease in our net interest margin to 2.63% from 2.72% for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, more than offset a $117.1 million, or 2.9%, increase in our average interest-earning assets. In addition there were two fewer days in the current quarter as compared to the prior quarter, which also contributed to the decrease in net interest income. The decrease in net interest margin was primarily due to an increased cost of our interest-bearing liabilities, which increased 12 basis points to 1.47% for the current quarter as compared to 1.35% for the prior quarter. The increase in our average interest-earning assets was due primarily to increases in average loans outstanding of $20.0 million, average mortgage-backed securities of $39.2 million, average other securities of $14.0 million, and average interest-earning deposits in financial institutions of $45.3 million. Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 included loan prepayment income of $420,000, as compared to $503,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. Yields earned on interest-earning assets increased two basis points to 3.80% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, from 3.78% for the quarter ended December 31, 2018.
The provision for loan losses decreased by $548,000 to $59,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, from $607,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to lower net charge-offs. Net charge-offs were $70,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to net charge-offs of $797,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2018.
Non-interest income increased $2.7 million to $3.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, from $640,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $2.8 million in gains on securities transactions, net. Securities gains, net, during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, included gains of $1.1 million related to the Company’s trading portfolio, compared to losses of $1.6 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2018. As discussed above, the trading portfolio is utilized to fund the Company’s deferred compensation plan and gains and losses on trading securities have no effect on net income since participants benefit from, and bear the full risk of, changes in the trading securities market values.
Non-interest expense increased $3.4 million, or 21.7%, to $19.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, from $15.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to a $3.9 million increase in employee compensation and benefits, $2.7 million of which is related to the Company's deferred compensation plan which as previously described has no effect on net income, with the remainder attributable to increased costs associated with merit increases effective January 1, 2019, and higher medical benefit costs in the current quarter as compared to the prior quarter. Partially offsetting the increase, were decreases of $221,000 in data processing costs and $200,000 in other non-interest expense.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $2.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was 22.9% compared to 18.9% for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, the increase being primarily due to lower excess tax benefits. Excess tax benefits were $93,000 and $514,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $147.0 million, or 3.3%, to $4.56 billion at March 31, 2019, from $4.41 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to increases in cash and cash equivalents of $8.1 million, or 10.4%, available-for sale debt securities of $86.2 million, or 10.7%, loans held-for-investment, net, of $10.7 million, or 0.3%, and the recording of our operating leased assets of $43.5 million from the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) on January 1, 2019, which requires us to recognize on the balance sheet right-of-use assets, which approximate the present value of our remaining lease payments.
As of March 31, 2019, we estimate that our non-owner occupied commercial real estate concentration (as defined by regulatory guidance issued in 2006) to total risk-based capital was approximately 414%. Management believes that Northfield Bank (the Bank) has implemented appropriate risk management practices including risk assessments, board approved underwriting policies and related procedures which include monitoring bank portfolio performance, performing market analysis (economic and real estate), and stressing of the Bank’s commercial real estate portfolio under severe adverse economic conditions. Although management believes the Bank has implemented appropriate policies and procedures to manage our commercial real estate concentration risk, the Bank’s regulators could require us to implement additional policies and procedures or could require us to maintain higher levels of regulatory capital, which might adversely affect our loan originations, ability to pay dividends, and profitability.
Loans held-for-investment, net, increased $10.7 million to $3.26 billion at March 31, 2019, from $3.25 billion at December 31, 2018. Originated loans held-for-investment, net, totaled $2.73 billion at March 31, 2019, as compared to $2.68 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase in multifamily real estate loans of $47.5 million, or 2.5%, to $1.98 billion at March 31, 2019, from $1.93 billion at December 31, 2018, partially offset by decreases in acquired loans of $37.0 million.

Acquired loans decreased by $37.0 million to $509.1 million at March 31, 2019, from $546.2 million at December 31, 2018, primarily due to paydowns of one-to-four family residential and multifamily loans with weighted average interest rates (net of the servicing fee retained by the originating bank) of 3.53% and 2.85%, respectively.
PCI loans totaled $18.9 million at March 31, 2019, as compared to $20.1 million at December 31, 2018. The majority of the PCI loan balance consists of loans acquired as part of a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-assisted transaction. The Company accreted interest income of $1.0 million and $1.1 million attributable to PCI loans for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and March 31, 2018, respectively.
The Company’s available-for-sale debt securities portfolio increased by $86.2 million, or 10.7%, to $894.3 million at March 31, 2019, from $808.0 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to purchases of mortgage-backed and corporate securities, partially offset by paydowns and sales. At March 31, 2019, $668.0 million of the portfolio consisted of residential mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae. In addition, the Company held $225.9 million in corporate bonds, the majority of which were considered investment grade at March 31, 2019, and $274,000 in municipal bonds.
Total liabilities increased $134.0 million, or 3.6%, to $3.88 billion at March 31, 2019, from $3.74 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in deposits of $88.7 million and lease liabilities of $43.7 million, attributable to capitalization of our operating leases as a result of adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, effective January 1, 2019.
Deposits increased $88.7 million, or 2.7%, to $3.38 billion at March 31, 2019, as compared to $3.29 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was attributable to increases of $56.9 million in transaction accounts and $84.4 million in savings accounts, partially offset by decreases of $20.1 million in money market accounts, and $32.5 million in certificates of deposit.

Borrowings and securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased modestly to $409.2 million at March 31, 2019, from $408.9 million at December 31, 2018. Management utilizes borrowings to mitigate interest rate risk, for short-term liquidity, and to a lesser extent as part of leverage strategies.

Total stockholders’ equity increased by $13.0 million to $679.4 million at March 31, 2019, from $666.4 million at December 31, 2018.
