Financial Performance Overview
First Quarter 2021 compared to Fourth Quarter 2020
For the first quarter of 2021, net income totaled $72.3 million, a decrease of $2.9 million as compared to $75.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The changes in net income on a sequential quarter basis are highlighted below.
Net interest income decreased by $8.1 million, or 4.3%, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2020. Changes within interest income and expense categories were as follows:
•Interest and dividend income decreased $17.3 million, or 7.3%, to $220.5 million as compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, primarily attributed to the weighted average yield on net loans which decreased 25 basis points to 3.88% including the impact of a decline in prepayment penalties. In addition, the average balance of net loans decreased $203.5 million, mainly as a result of paydowns and payoffs, partially offset by loan originations.
•Prepayment penalties, which are included in interest income, totaled $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $9.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020.
•Interest expense decreased $9.3 million, primarily attributed to the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities which decreased 16 basis points to 0.84% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. In addition, the average balance of interest-bearing deposits decreased $517.5 million, or 3.2%, to $15.62 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the average balance of total borrowed funds decreased $35.1 million, or 1.0%, to $3.44 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Net interest margin decreased 8 basis points to 2.90% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020, driven primarily by the decrease in prepayment penalties, partially offset by the lower cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Excluding prepayment penalties, net interest margin increased 2 basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Total non-interest income was $20.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, a decrease of $25.8 million, as compared to $45.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The decrease in non-interest income was due primarily to a gain of $23.1 million on the sale-leaseback of 15 branch locations and one corporate location during the three months ended December 31, 2020 and a $2.6 million decline in customer swap fee income.
Total non-interest expenses were $104.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, a decrease of $38.5 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020. Total non-interest expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2020 included $22.8 million of costs from the early extinguishment of wholesale funding and $11.7 million of costs associated with the Company’s branch rationalization announcement in December 2020. Excluding these items, non-interest expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased $4.0 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020. The decrease was primarily driven by incentive compensation.
Income tax expense was $27.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and $19.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020. The effective tax rate was 27.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 20.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2020. The effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2020 was positively impacted by tax credit investments, as well as state income apportionment.

First Quarter 2021 compared to First Quarter 2020
For the first quarter of 2021, net income totaled $72.3 million, an increase of $32.8 million as compared to $39.5 million in the first quarter of 2020. The changes in net income on a year over year quarter basis are highlighted below.
On a year over year basis, first quarter of 2021 net interest income increased by $7.5 million, or 4.3%, as compared to the first quarter of 2020 due to:
•Interest expense decreased $43.0 million, or 51.9%, primarily attributed to the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which decreased 74 basis points to 0.84% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. In addition, the average balance of total borrowed funds decreased $2.25 billion, or 39.5%, to $3.44 billion, while the average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $288.3 million, or 1.9%, to $15.62 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
•Interest and dividend income decreased $35.6 million, or 13.9%, to $220.5 million, primarily attributed to the weighted average yield on net loans which decreased 35 basis points to 3.88%, including the impact of a decline in prepayment penalties, and the weighted average yield on securities which decreased 83 basis points to 2.00%. In addition, the average balance of net loans decreased $735.7 million, mainly as a result of paydowns and payoffs, offset by loan originations and $453.3 million of loans acquired from Gold Coast in April 2020.
•Prepayment penalties, which are included in interest income, totaled $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Net interest margin increased 19 basis points year over year to 2.90% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 from 2.71% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, driven primarily by the lower cost of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by the lower yields on interest-earnings assets and a decrease in prepayment penalties. Excluding prepayment penalties, net interest margin increased 27 basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Total non-interest income was $20.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $5.3 million year over year. The increase in non-interest income was due primarily to an increase of $2.0 million in gain on loans due to a higher volume of mortgage banking loan sales to third parties, an increase of $819,000 in customer swap fee income, an increase of $757,000 in income from our wealth and investment products and an increase of $610,000 in gains on our equipment finance portfolio.
Total non-interest expenses were $104.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $1.8 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Income tax expense was $27.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and $14.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The effective tax rate was 27.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 27.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Asset Quality
Our provision for credit losses is primarily a result of the expected credit losses on our loans, unfunded commitments and held-to-maturity debt securities over the life of these financial instruments based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Our provision for credit losses is also impacted by the inherent credit risk in these financial instruments, the composition of and changes in our portfolios of these financial instruments, and the level of charge-offs. At March 31, 2021, our allowance for credit losses continues to be affected by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the current and forecasted economic conditions. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, our
4
provision for credit losses was negative $3.0 million compared to negative $2.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Our provision was impacted by net loan recoveries of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, net loan recoveries of $2.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and net loan charge-offs of $8.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Total non-accrual loans were $83.3 million, or 0.40% of total loans, at March 31, 2021 compared to $107.1 million, or 0.51% of total loans, at December 31, 2020 and $98.4 million, or 0.46% of total loans, at March 31, 2020. We continue to proactively and diligently work to resolve our troubled loans.
At March 31, 2021, there were $29.7 million of loans deemed as troubled debt restructured loans (“TDRs”), of which $24.4 million were residential and consumer loans, $4.4 million were commercial real estate loans and $900,000 were commercial and industrial loans. TDRs of $9.1 million were classified as accruing and $20.6 million were classified as non-accrual at March 31, 2021.
The following table sets forth non-accrual loans and accruing past due loans (excluding loans held for sale) on the dates indicated as well as certain asset quality ratios.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we originated $384.5 million in multi-family loans, $317.9 million in residential loans, $249.6 million in commercial and industrial loans, $157.1 million in commercial real estate loans, $15.3 million in construction loans and $15.0 million in consumer and other loans. Our originations reflect our continued focus on diversifying our loan portfolio. Our loans are primarily on properties and businesses located in New Jersey and New York.
In addition to the loans originated for our portfolio, we originated residential mortgage loans for sale to third parties totaling $142.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2021, loans held for sale were $1.4 million.
The allowance for loan losses increased by $774,000 to $283.8 million at March 31, 2021 from $283.0 million at December 31, 2020. The increase reflects an increase of $1.7 million resulting from net recoveries, partially offset by a negative provision for loan losses of $960,000. Our allowance for loan losses was affected by the current and forecasted economic conditions. Future increases in the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on the growth and composition of the loan portfolio, the level of loan delinquency and the current and forecasted economic conditions over the life of our loans. At March 31, 2021, our allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 1.36%, consistent with December 31, 2020.
Securities decreased by $141.9 million, or 3.5%, to $3.90 billion at March 31, 2021 from $4.04 billion at December 31, 2020. This decrease was primarily a result of paydowns and sales, partially offset by purchases.
Deposits decreased by $534.4 million, or 2.7%, to $18.99 billion at March 31, 2021 from $19.53 billion at December 31, 2020 primarily driven by decreases in money market and time deposits, offset by an
7
increase in checking deposits. Checking accounts increased $232.4 million to $9.94 billion at March 31, 2021 from $9.71 billion at December 31, 2020. Core deposits (savings, checking and money market) represented approximately 87% of our total deposit portfolio at March 31, 2021 compared to 86% at December 31, 2020.
Borrowed funds increased by $262.5 million, or 8.0%, to $3.56 billion at March 31, 2021 from $3.30 billion at December 31, 2020 primarily driven by the decrease in deposits.
Stockholders’ equity increased by $60.5 million to $2.77 billion at March 31, 2021 from $2.71 billion at December 31, 2020, primarily attributed to net income of $72.3 million, other comprehensive income of $23.5 million and share-based plan activity of $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. These increases were partially offset by cash dividends of $0.14 per share totaling $34.6 million and the repurchase of 664,276 shares of common stock for $7.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Company remains above the FDIC’s “well capitalized” standards, with a Common Equity Tier 1 Risk-Based Ratio of 13.33% at March 31, 2021.

Certain statements contained herein are “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 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. Forward looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, as described in the “Risk Factors” disclosures included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as supplemented in quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, including, but not limited to, those related to the real estate and economic environment, particularly in the market areas in which the Company operates, competitive products and pricing, fiscal and monetary policies of the U.S. Government, changes in government regulations affecting financial institutions, including regulatory fees and capital requirements, changes in prevailing interest rates, acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses, credit risk management, asset-liability management, the financial and securities markets and the availability of and costs associated with sources of liquidity. Further, given its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict what the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business and results of operations. The pandemic and related local and national economic disruption may, among other effects, continue to result in a material adverse change for the demand for our products and services; increased levels of loan delinquencies, problem assets and foreclosures; branch disruptions, unavailability of personnel and increased cybersecurity risks as employees work remotely.
The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the Company’s financial performance and could cause the Company’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements. The Company does not undertake and specifically declines any obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions that may be made to any forward looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We believe that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance, our performance trends and financial position. We utilize these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that our presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
