Flushing Financial Corporation Reports 3Q24 GAAP and Core EPS of $0.30 and $0.26, Respectively; Net Interest Income and NIM Increased QoQ

"Our third quarter had several positive trends that demonstrate our commitment to improve profitability over the long term. GAAP and Core EPS were $0.30 and $0.26, respectively, the best quarter in the past seven, including non-recurring items. GAAP and Core NIM increased by 5 and 4 bps QoQ to 2.10% and 2.07%, respectively, as the cost of funds peaked in July decreasing in August and September. As a result, NIM bottomed in July then increased in August and September. Credit quality remains solid with a sequential decline in NPAs and criticized and classified assets. Our underwriting remains very strong with a weighted average DCR of 1.9x for our multifamily and CRE portfolios and only 0.5% of exposure to Manhattan office buildings. The Company has $3.9 billion of unused lines of credit available as of September 30, 2024. Average total deposits increased 9% YoY and 4% QoQ. The Company and the Bank remain well capitalized under regulatory standards. Year to date, GAAP and Core noninterest expense growth was approximately 6%, which includes investments in the business including new employees and branches that should enhance our long term profitability over time. While there is more work to do, we are pleased with the direction and execution on our areas of focus."

FLUSHING FINANCIAL CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP EARNINGS and CORE EARNINGS

Non-cash Fair Value Adjustments to GAAP Earnings

The variance in GAAP and core earnings is partly driven by the impact of non-cash net gains and losses from fair value adjustments. These fair value adjustments relate primarily to borrowings carried at fair value under the fair value option.

Core Net Income, Core Diluted EPS, Core ROAE, Core ROAA, Pre-provision Pre-tax Net Revenue, Core Net Interest Income FTE, Core Net Interest Margin FTE, Core Interest Income and Yield on Total Loans, Core Noninterest Income, Core Noninterest Expense and Tangible Book Value per common share are each non-GAAP measures used in this release. A reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures appears below in tabular form. The Company believes that these measures are useful for both investors and management to understand the effects of certain interest and noninterest items and provide an alternative view of the Company's performance over time and in comparison, to the Company's competitors. These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for net income. The Company believes that tangible book value per common share is useful for both investors and management as this measure is commonly used by financial institutions, regulators, and investors to measure the capital adequacy of financial institutions. The Company believes these measures facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's capital over time and in comparison, to its competitors. These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for total shareholders' equity.

These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
