BROOKLINE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
(1) Basis of Presentation
Overview
Brookline Bancorp, Inc. (the Company) is a bank holding company (within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended) and the parent of Brookline Bank, a Massachusetts-chartered savings bank; Bank Rhode Island (BankRI), a Rhode Island-chartered bank; and First Ipswich Bank (First Ipswich and formerly known as the First National Bank of Ipswich), a Massachusetts-chartered trust company (collectively referred to as the Banks). The Company is also the parent of Brookline Securities Corp. (BSC). The Companys primary business is to provide commercial, business and retail banking services to its corporate, municipal and individual customers through its banks and non-bank subsidiaries.
Brookline Bank, which includes its wholly-owned subsidiaries, BBS Investment Corp. and Longwood Securities Corp., and its 84.8%-owned subsidiary, Eastern Funding LLC (Eastern Funding), operates 21 full-service banking offices in Brookline, Massachusetts and the greater Boston metropolitan area. BankRI, which includes its wholly-owned subsidiaries, BRI Investment Corp., Macrolease Corporation (Macrolease), Acorn Insurance Agency and BRI Realty Corp., operates 17 full-service banking offices in Providence County, Kent County and Washington County, Rhode Island. First Ipswich, which includes its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Ipswich Securities II Corp., First Ipswich Insurance Agency, First Ipswich Realty and FNBI Realty, operates six full-service banking offices on the north shore of eastern Massachusetts and in the Boston metropolitan area.
The Companys activities include acceptance of commercial and retail deposits, origination of mortgage loans on commercial and residential real estate located principally in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, origination of commercial loans and leases to small- and mid-sized businesses, origination of indirect automobile loans, investment in debt and equity securities, and the offering of cash management and investment advisory services. The Company also provides specialty equipment financing through its subsidiaries Eastern Funding, which is based in New York City, and Macrolease, which is based in Plainview, New York.
The Company is subject to competition from other financial and non-financial institutions and is supervised, examined and regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB). As Massachusetts-chartered member banks, Brookline Bank and First Ipswich are also subject to regulation under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Division of Banks. BankRI is subject to regulation under the laws of the State of Rhode Island and the jurisdiction of the Banking Division of the Rhode Island Department of Business Regulation. Effective September 28, 2012, BankRI became a member of the Federal Reserve System and is now subject to the jurisdiction of the FRB. The FDIC continues to insure all of the Banks deposits. Additionally, all Massachusetts-chartered savings banks are required to be members of the Depositors Insurance Fund (DIF), a corporation that insures savings bank deposits in excess of the FDIC insurance limits of $250,000 per person. As such, Brookline Bank offers 100% insurance on all deposits as a result of a combination of insurance from the FDIC and the DIF.
Financial Statements
The Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information as set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in its Accounting Standards Codification and through the rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the authority of federal securities laws. Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current years presentation.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
In preparing these unaudited consolidated financial statements, management is required to make significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates based upon changing conditions, including economic conditions, and future events. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant
BROOKLINE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
change in the near-term include the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses, the determination of fair market values of assets and liabilities, the review of goodwill and intangibles for impairment, income tax accounting and status of contingencies.
The judgments used by management in applying these critical accounting policies may be affected by a further and prolonged deterioration in the economic environment, which may result in changes to future financial results. For example, subsequent evaluations of the loan and lease portfolio, in light of the factors then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance for loan and lease losses in future periods, and the inability to collect outstanding principal may result in increased loan and lease losses.
The unaudited interim results of consolidated operations are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future interim period or for the entire year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with annual financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Companys 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Bancorp Rhode Islands audited financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 included in the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K/A, filed on March 23, 2012.
(2) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirement in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This ASU results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs.). The amendments in this ASU explain how to measure fair value. They do not require additional fair value measurements and are not intended to result in a change in the application of current fair value measurement requirements. The amendments in this ASU are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-04, in January 2012, did not have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The objective of this ASU is to improve the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. Under the amendments in this ASU, a company has the option to present the total of comprehensive income and details of each of its components (net income and other comprehensive income) either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. This ASU eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders equity. The amendments in this ASU do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The amendments in this ASU are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. As ASU No. 2011-05 only deals with presentation requirements, the adoption of ASU No. 2011-05 in January 2012 did not have any impact on the Companys financial statements. The FASB recently announced the addition of a FASB agenda project to consider deferring certain aspects of ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income related to the presentation of reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. This ASU applies to all entities that have goodwill reported in their financial statements. Under the amendments, an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the first step of the two-step impairment test by calculating the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing the fair value with the carrying amount of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value,
BROOKLINE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

then the entity is required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. An entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. An entity may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-08, in January 2012, did not have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. This ASU requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position and to allow investors to better compare financial statements prepared under GAAP with financial statements prepared under IFRS. The new standards are effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2013 and for interim periods within those annual periods. Retrospective application is required. The Company is currently assessing the impact on the Companys financial statements and will implement the provisions of ASU No. 2011-11 as of January 1, 2013.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This ASU permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not than an indefinite-lived intangible asset, other than goodwill, is impaired. Entities are required to test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually and more frequently if indicators of impairment exist. If an entity concludes, based on an evaluation of all relevant qualitative factors, that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, it is not required to perform the quantitative impairment test for that asset. The ASU applies to both public and nonpublic entities and is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The Company is currently assessing the impact on the Companys financial statements and will implement the provisions of ASU No.2012-02 as of January 1, 2013.
(3) Acquisition
Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc.
On January 1, 2012 (the Acquisition Date), the Company acquired all the assets and liabilities of Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc., the bank holding company for BankRI. As part of the acquisition, Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc. was merged into the Company and no longer exists as a separate entity. BankRI, a commercial bank with 17 branches serving businesses and individuals in Rhode Island and nearby Massachusetts, continues to operate as a separate bank subsidiary of the Company.
Total consideration paid in the acquisition was $205.8 million, which consisted of approximately 11.0 million shares of stock with a par value of approximately $0.1 million and a fair value of $92.8 million and $113.0 million in cash. Stock consideration was paid at the rate of 4.686 shares of Brookline Bancorp common stock per share of Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc. common stock. The assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in the acquisition were recorded by the Company at their estimated fair values as of the Acquisition Date. The excess of consideration paid over the fair value of identifiable net assets was recorded as goodwill in the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

The above summary includes adjustments that record the acquired assets and assumed liabilities at the respective fair value, based on managements best estimates using the information available as of the acquisition. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company obtained new information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date but were unknown to the Company at that date, and as a result, modified its accounting

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
for deferred tax assets and other liabilities acquired. While there may be other changes in respective acquisition date fair values of certain balance sheet amounts, and other items, management does not believe that such changes, if any, are or will be material.
Fair values of the major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined as follows:
Loans and Leases
The acquired loans and leases were recorded at fair value at the Acquisition Date without carryover of BankRIs allowance for loan and lease losses of $18.1 million. The fair value of the loans and leases was determined using market participant assumptions in estimating the amount and timing of both principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected on the loans and leases and then applying a market-based discount rate to those cash flows. In this regard, the acquired loans and leases were segregated into pools based on loan or lease type and credit risk. Loan or lease type was determined based on collateral type and purpose, location, industry segment and loan structure. Credit risk characteristics included risk rating groups (pass rated loans and adversely classified loans), updated loan-to-value ratios and lien position. For valuation purposes, these pools were further disaggregated by maturity and pricing characteristics (e.g., fixed-rate, adjustable-rate, balloon maturities).
The fair value of acquired loans and leases which fall under ASC 310-20 at January 1, 2012 is $677.4 million. Information about the acquired loan and lease portfolio subject to ASC 310-30 as of January 1, 2012 is as follows:

|
Premises and Equipment
The fair value of BankRIs premises, including land, buildings and improvements, was determined based upon appraisal by licensed appraisers. These appraisals were based upon the best and highest use of the property with final values determined based upon an analysis of the cost, sales comparison and income capitalization approaches for each property appraised. The fair value of Bank-owned real estate resulted in an estimated premium of $1.7 million, amortized over the weighted average remaining useful life of the properties, estimated to be 25 years. Amortization of the premium on premises and equipment for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, was $22,000 and $66,000, respectively.
The majority of leasehold interests were valued based upon the income approach, developed by licensed appraisers utilizing market rental rates developed through comparable lease signings, third-party information regarding the local market for comparable properties with similar utility, and a review of the contractual terms of the leases. The discount of leasehold interests is estimated at $1.0 million and is being accreted over the weighted average remaining life of the underlying leases. Accretion for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, was $21,000 and $63,000, respectively.
Identified Intangible Assets
The fair value of the core deposit intangible (CDI) was determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis using a discount rate based on the estimated cost of capital for a market participant. To calculate cash flows, deposit account servicing costs (net of deposit fee income) and interest expense on deposits were compared to the cost of alternative funding sources available through the Federal Home Loan Bank. The life of the deposit base and projected deposit attrition rates were determined using BankRIs historical deposit data. The CDI was estimated at $19.4 million or 1.71% of deposits. The intangible asset is being amortized over a weighted average life of ten years using the sum-of-the-years digits method. Amortization for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, was $0.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively.
BROOKLINE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
Other intangible assets associated with the BankRI acquisition included a trade name intangible estimated at $1.6 million and a non-compete agreement valued at $0.9 million. These intangible assets are being amortized over eleven years and two years, respectively, using the sum-of-the-years digits method. Amortization for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
Deposits
The fair value adjustment of deposits represents a premium over the value of the contractual repayments of fixed-maturity deposits using prevailing market interest rates for similar-term certificates of deposit. The resulting estimated fair value adjustment of certificates of deposit ranging in maturity from three months to over four years is a $2.0 million discount and is being accreted into income on a level-yield basis over the weighted average remaining life of approximately 14 months. Accretion for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances
The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (FHLBB) advances represents contractual repayments discounted using interest rates currently available on borrowings with similar characteristics and remaining maturities. The resulting estimated fair value adjustment on FHLBB advances was $16.3 million and is being accreted on a level yield basis over the remaining life of the borrowings which have remaining lives of one to four years. Accretion for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $0.9 million and $2.8 million, respectively.
Other Liabilities
The fair value adjustment to other liabilities includes $5.6 million of compensation accruals related to executive severance and cash payments made post-acquisition to settle vested stock options and restricted stock.
In addition, BankRI maintains Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans (the SERPs) for certain of its senior executives under which participants designated by the Board of Directors are entitled to an annual retirement benefit. Annual amounts related to the SERPs are recorded based on an actuarial calculation. Actuarial gains and losses are reflected immediately in the statement of operations. The liability for the postretirement benefit obligation related to the BankRI SERPs included in accrued expenses and other liabilities was $10.6 million at September 30, 2012. The Company incurred a related net periodic benefit expense related to these plans of $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.
Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities
Deferred tax assets and liabilities were established for purchase accounting fair value adjustments as the future amortization/accretion of these adjustments represent temporary differences between book income and taxable income. In addition, the deferred tax asset related to the BankRI allowance for loan and lease losses and the deferred tax liability related to the BankRI tax-deductible goodwill were written off.
Financial Information Acquisition
The Companys consolidated results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, include $15.2 million and $44.6 million of net interest income and $3.9 million and $7.5 million of net income from the results of BankRI from the acquisition date. Expenses relating to the transaction amounted to $5.4 million.

The Company performs regular analysis on the available-for-sale securities portfolio to determine whether a decline in fair value indicates that an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired (OTTI). In making these OTTI determinations, management considers, among other factors, the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, projected future cash flows, credit subordination and the creditworthiness, capital adequacy and near-term prospects of the issuers.
Management also considers the Companys capital adequacy, interest-rate risk, liquidity and business plans in assessing whether it is more likely than not that the Company will sell or be required to sell the securities before recovery. If the Company determines that a decline in fair value is OTTI and that it is more likely than not that the Company will not sell or be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost, the credit portion of the impairment loss is recognized in earnings and the noncredit portion is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. The credit portion of the OTTI impairment represents the difference between the amortized cost and the present value of the expected future cash flows of the security. If the Company determines that a decline in fair value is OTTI and it is more likely than not that it will sell or be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost, the entire difference between the amortized cost and the fair value of the security will be recognized in earnings.
Debt Securities
The Company expects to recover its amortized cost basis on all debt securities in its available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios. Furthermore, the Company does not intend to sell nor does it anticipate that it will be required to sell any of its securities in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2012, prior to this recovery. The Companys ability and intent to hold these securities until recovery is supported by the Companys strong capital and liquidity positions as well as its historically low portfolio turnover.
Auction-Rate Municipal Obligations
The auction-rate obligations owned by the Company were rated AAA at the time of acquisition due, in part, to the guarantee of third-party insurers who would have to pay the obligations if the issuers failed to pay the obligations when they become due. During the financial crisis certain third-party insurers experienced financial difficulties and

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
were not able to meet their contractual obligations. As a result, auctions failed to attract a sufficient number of investors and created a liquidity problem for those investors who were relying on the obligations to be redeemed at auction. Since then, there has not been an active market for auction-rate municipal obligations.
Based on an evaluation of market factors, the estimated fair value of the auction-rate municipal obligations owned by the Company at September 30, 2012 was $2.3 million with a corresponding net unrealized loss of $0.1 million. Full collection of the obligations is expected because the financial condition of the issuers is sound, none of the issuers has defaulted on scheduled payments, the obligations are rated investment grade and the Company has the ability and intent to hold the obligations for a period of time to recover the unrealized losses.
Corporate Obligations
From time to time, the Company will invest in high-quality corporate obligations to provide portfolio diversification and improve the overall yield on the portfolio. The Company owned ten corporate obligation securities with a total fair value of $24.9 million and total net unrealized gains of $0.1 million as of September 30, 2012. All but two of these securities are investment grade. Both non-investment grade securities are currently in unrealized gain positions.
Trust Preferred Securities and PreTSLs
The Companys portfolio of trust preferred securities at September 30, 2012 includes the Companys investment in two trust preferred pools (PreTSLs). The Company monitors these pools closely for impairment due to a history of defaults experienced on the part of the banks underlying the trust preferred securities. The following tables summarize the pertinent information as of September 30, 2012, that was considered in determining whether OTTI existed on these PreTSLs:

(1) The amortized cost reflects previously recorded credit-related OTTI charges recognized in earnings for the applicable securities as well as the fair value adjustment recorded on PreTSL C in connection with purchase accounting.
In performing the analysis for OTTI impairment on the PreTSLs, expected future cash flow scenarios for each pool were considered under varying levels of severity for assumptions including future delinquencies, recoveries and

At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
prepayments. The Company also considered its relative seniority within the pools and any excess subordination. The Companys OTTI assessment for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 was as follows:
Pooled Trust Preferred Security B (PreTSL B)
PreTSL B has experienced $91 million in deferrals/defaults, or 25% of the securitys underlying collateral, to date. During the third quarter of 2012, a $6 million component of the collateral cured with no further deferrals or defaults and no further rating actions. Based on the securitys future expected cash flows and after factoring in projected defaults of 16% over its remaining life, the securitys current amortized cost (99% of current par), $111 million in excess subordination (41% of outstanding performing collateral) and the Companys intent and ability to hold the security until recovery, management believes that no OTTI charges are warranted at this time.
Pooled Trust Preferred Security C (PreTSL C)
PreTSL C was acquired on January 1, 2012 as part of the Bancorp Rhode Island acquisition. PreTSL C has experienced $69 million in deferrals/defaults, or 39% of the securitys underlying collateral, to date. During the third quarter of 2012, there was no change in the deferral or default schedules and no further rating actions. Based on the securitys future expected cash flows and after factoring in projected defaults of 24% over its remaining life, the securitys current amortized cost (9% of current par) and the Companys intent and ability to hold the security until recovery, management believes that no OTTI charges are warranted at this time.
A third pooled trust preferred security known as PreTSL A was called during the three months ended September 30, 2012. The Company received a final payment of $0.2 million of principal and interest after recording a total of $0.1 million in OTTI on this security in 2010.
As of September 30, 2012 there is no OTTI recognized in other comprehensive income on these securities.

Actual maturities of GSE debt securities may differ from those presented above since certain obligations provide the issuer the right to call or prepay the obligation prior to scheduled maturity without penalty. At September 30, 2012, issuers of debt securities with an estimated fair value of approximately $15.1 million had the right to call or prepay the obligations, the scheduled maturities of which were $9.8 million after one through five years, $0.2 million after five years though ten years and $5.1 million after ten years. MBSs and CMOs are included above based on their contractual maturities; the remaining lives, however, are expected to be shorter due to anticipated payments.

At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, FHLBB stock is recorded at its carrying value, which is equal to cost and which management believes approximates its fair value. The FHLBB was classified as adequately capitalized by its regulator at September 30, 2012, effected the repurchase of $250 million of capital stock in March 2012 and, in April 2012 and July 2012, declared a dividend of 52 basis points and in October 2012, a dividend of 48 basis points, up from an average 30 basis points in 2011. At September 30, 2012, the Companys investment in FHLBB stock exceeded its required investment by $13.4 million.
The FHLBB has announced its intent to declare modest dividends throughout 2012 but cautioned that should adverse events occur, such as a negative trend in credit losses on the FHLBBs private-label MBSs or its mortgage portfolio, a meaningful decline in income or regulatory disapproval, dividends could again be suspended.
The Company increased its investment in the stock of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston concomitant with Brookline Banks conversion to a state-chartered bank supervised by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Federal Reserve Bank of Boston stock is recorded at its carrying value, which is equal to cost and which management believes approximates its fair value.

Related Party Loans
The Banks authority to extend credit to its directors and executive officers, as well as to entities controlled by such persons, is currently governed by the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and Regulation O of the FRB. Among other things, these provisions require that extensions of credit to insiders (1) be made on terms that are substantially the same as, and follow credit underwriting procedures that are not less stringent than, those prevailing for comparable transactions with unaffiliated persons and that do not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features; and (2) not exceed certain limitations on the amount of credit extended to such persons, individually and in the aggregate, which limits are based, in part, on the amount of the Banks capital. In addition, the extensions of credit in excess of certain limits must be approved by the Banks Board of Directors. The following table summarizes the change in the total amounts of loans and advances to directors, executive officers and their affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. All loans were performing at September 30, 2012.

Loan and Lease Participations
The Company periodically enters into loan and lease participations with third parties. In accordance with GAAP, these participations are accounted for as sales and, therefore, are not included in the Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements. In some cases, the Company has continuing involvement with the loan and lease

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
participations in the form of servicing. Servicing of the loan and lease participations typically involves collecting principal and interest payments and monitoring delinquencies on behalf of the assigned party of the participation.
Recourse Obligations
As a result of the acquisition of BankRI, the Company has a recourse obligation under a lease sale agreement for up to 8.0% of the original sold balance of approximately $9.8 million. Historically, delinquency rates for the lease portfolio have been significantly less than 8.0% and the rate at September 30, 2012 was 0.75%. At September 30, 2012, a liability for the recourse obligation of $11,000 was included in the Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements.

The liability for unfunded credit commitments, which is included in other liabilities, was $0.7 million at September 30, 2012 and $0.8 million at September 30, 2011. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, the liability for unfunded credit commitments decreased by $0.1 million to reflect changes in the estimate of loss exposure associated with credit commitments. No credit commitments were charged off against the liability account in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 or 2011, respectively.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses Methodology
Management has established a methodology to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses that assesses the risks and losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. For purposes of determining the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Company has segmented certain loans and leases in the portfolio by product type into the following pools: (1) commercial real estate loans, (2) commercial loans and leases, (3) indirect automobile loans and (4) consumer loans. Portfolio segments are further disaggregated into classes based on the associated risks within the segments. Commercial real estate loans are divided into three classes: commercial real estate mortgage loans, multi-family mortgage loans and construction loans. Commercial loans and leases are divided into three classes: commercial loans, equipment financing, and loans to condominium associations. The indirect automobile loan segment is not divided into classes. Consumer loans are divided into three classes: residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans. For each class of loan, management makes significant judgments in selecting the estimation method that fits the credit characteristics of its class and portfolio segment as set forth below.
Credit Quality Assessment
Acquired Loans and Leases
Upon acquiring a loan portfolio, the Company reviews and assigns risk ratings to all commercial and commercial real estate loans in accordance with the Companys policy, which may differ in certain respects from the risk-rating policy of the acquired company. The length of time necessary to complete this process varies based on the size of the acquired portfolio, the quality of the documentation maintained in the underlying loan files, and the extent to which the acquired company followed a risk-rating approach comparable to the Companys. As a result, while acquired loans are risk-rated, there are occasions when such ratings may be deemed preliminary until the Companys re-rating process has been completed, a process that management believes will be substantially completed by year-end.
In contrast to originated loans, risk ratings for acquired loans are not directly considered in the establishment of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Rather, acquired loans are initially recorded at fair value without carryover of pre-acquisition allowances for loan and lease losses. The difference between contractually required principal and interest payments at the acquisition date and the undiscounted cash flows expected to be collected at the acquisition date is referred to as the nonaccretable difference, which includes an estimate of future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the portfolio.
Under the accounting model for acquired loans, the excess of cash flows expected to be collected over the carrying amount of the loans, referred to as the accretable yield, is accreted into interest income over the life of the loans in each pool using the effective-yield method. Accordingly, acquired loans are not subject to classification as nonaccrual in the same manner as originated loans. Rather, acquired loans are considered to be accruing loans because their interest income relates to the accretable yield recognized at the pool level in accordance with the applicable accounting model for such loans and not to contractual interest payments at the loan level. The difference between contractually required principal and interest payments and the cash flows expected to be collected, referred to as the nonaccretable difference, includes estimates of both the impact of prepayments and future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loans in each pool. As such, charge-offs on acquired loans are first applied to the nonaccretable difference and then to any allowance for loan and lease losses recognized subsequent to acquisition. Loans accounted for under ASC 310-20 are placed on nonaccrual status when past due in accordance with the Companys nonaccrual policy, and any accretion of discount is discontinued.
Subsequent to acquisition and for those loans accounted for on a cash flow basis, the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected is periodically re-assessed. These re-assessments involve the use of key assumptions and estimates, similar to those used in the initial estimate of fair value. Generally speaking, expected cash flows are affected by changes in the expected principal and interest payments over the estimated life, changes in prepayment assumptions, and changes in interest rate indices for variable-rate loans.
A decrease in expected cash flows in subsequent periods may indicate that the loan pool is impaired, which would require the establishment of an allowance for loan and lease losses by a charge to the provision for credit

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
losses. An increase in expected cash flows in subsequent periods reduces any previously established allowance for loan and lease losses by the increase in the present value of cash flows expected to be collected and results in a recalculation of the amount of accretable yield for the loan pool. The adjustment of the accretable yield due to an increase in expected cash flows is accounted for as a change in estimate. The additional cash flows expected to be collected are reclassified from the nonaccretable difference to the accretable yield, and the amount of periodic accretion is adjusted accordingly over the remaining life of the loans in the pool.
An acquired loan may be resolved either through receipt of payment (in full or in part) from the borrower, the sale of the loan to a third party, or foreclosure of the collateral. In the event of a sale of the loan, a gain or loss on sale is recognized and reported within non-interest income based on the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the loan. In other cases, individual loans are removed from the pool based on comparing the amount received from its resolution (fair value of the underlying collateral less costs to sell in the case of a foreclosure) with its outstanding balance. Any difference between these amounts is absorbed by the nonaccretable difference established for the entire pool. For loans resolved by payment in full, there is no adjustment of the nonaccretable difference since there is no difference between the amount received at resolution and the outstanding balance of the loan. In these cases, the remaining accretable yield balance is unaffected and any material change in remaining effective yield caused by the removal of the loan from the pool is addressed in connection with the subsequent cash flow re-assessment for the pool. Acquired loans subject to modification are not removed from the pool even if those loans would otherwise be deemed troubled debt restructurings as the pool, and not the individual loan, represents the unit of account.
Except for two loans accounted for under ASC 310-20 with a combined carrying value of $0.8 million and a combined allowance of $0.2 million added during the third quarter, there were no significant changes in the credit quality of acquired loans at September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011.
Originated Loans and Leases
The Company utilizes an eight-grade rating system in its evaluation of commercial and commercial real estate loans and leases. At the time of origination, a rating is assigned based on the financial strength of the borrower and the value of assets pledged as collateral. The officer responsible for handling each loan is required to initiate changes to risk ratings when changes in facts and circumstances occur that warrant an upgrade or downgrade in a loan rating. The reasonableness of loan ratings is assessed and monitored in several ways, including the periodic review of loans by credit personnel and independent loan review staff. Loans rated pass (risk ratings 1 through 4) are performing in accordance with the terms of the loan and are less likely to result in loss because of the capacity of the borrower to pay and the adequacy of the value of assets pledged as collateral. Criticized loans (risk ratings 5 through 8) include loans criticized (i.e. special mention) and classified (i.e. substandard, doubtful and loss); troubled debt restructured loans; loans on nonaccrual; and other impaired loans. These loans have a higher likelihood of loss.
Commercial Real Estate Loans At September 30, 2012, loans outstanding in the three commercial real estate loan classes, expressed as a percent of total loans and leases outstanding (excluding deferred loan origination costs), were as follows: commercial real estate mortgage loans 30.6%, multi-family mortgage loans 15.2% and construction loans 2.1%.
Loans in this portfolio segment that are on nonaccrual status and/or risk-rated substandard or worse are evaluated on an individual loan basis for impairment. For non-impaired commercial real estate loans, loss factors are applied to outstanding loans by risk rating for each of the three classes in the segment. The factors applied are based primarily on historic loan loss experience and an assessment of internal and external factors. Management has accumulated information on actual loan charge-offs and recoveries by class covering the past 27 years. The Company has a long history of low frequency of loss in this loan class. As a result, determination of loss factors is based on considerable judgment by management, including evaluation of the risk characteristics related to current internal and external factors. Notable risk characteristics related to the commercial real estate mortgage and multi-family mortgage portfolios are the concentration in those classes of outstanding loans within the greater Boston and Providence metropolitan areas and the effect the local economies could have on the collectability of those loans. While unemployment in the greater Boston metropolitan area is not as high as in other parts of the United States, it is nonetheless elevated in relation to historic trends. Further, the medical and education industries are major employers in the greater Boston metropolitan area. Unemployment in Rhode Island remains high relative to other parts of the
BROOKLINE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
United States. Should the number of individuals employed in those industries decline or if total unemployment in the greater Boston and Providence metropolitan areas remain elevated, the resulting negative consequences could affect occupancy rates in the properties financed by the Company and cause certain borrowers to be unable to service their debt obligations.
Other factors taken into consideration in establishing the allowance for loan and lease losses for this class were the rate of growth of loans outstanding in 2012, the decrease in originated loans delinquent over 30 days from $9.4 million (0.8% of originated commercial real estate loans outstanding excluding deferred loan origination costs) at December 31, 2011 to $2.2 million (0.2%) at September 30, 2012, the addition of new loan officers and the decrease in criticized loans from $26.2 million at December 31, 2011 to $16.2 million at September 30, 2012. The Company also takes into consideration the impact that the economy, and in particular the housing market, has on the rents and values associated with its apartment and multi-family mortgage loans. The increase in renters versus homeowners has increased multi-family rents. This trend, coupled with historically low capitalization rates, has increased apartment and multi-family property valuations, which, in turn, has increased the number of multi-family properties under development. These increases in multi-family rents and valuations could drop if the demand for rentable housing declines or interest rates rise. For further discussion of criticized loans, see Credit Quality Information below.
While the Companys construction loan portfolio is small, there are higher risks associated with such loans. The source of repayment for the majority of the construction loans is derived from the sale of constructed housing units. A project that is viable at the outset can experience losses when there is a drop in the demand for housing units. Typically, the level of loss in relation to the amount loaned is high when construction projects run into difficulty.
Commercial Loans and Leases At September 30, 2012, loans and leases outstanding in the three commercial loan/lease classes, expressed as a percent of total loans and leases outstanding (excluding deferred loan origination costs), were as follows: commercial loans 8.4%, equipment financing loans and leases 10.3% and loans to condominium associations 1.1%.
Loans and leases in this portfolio segment that are on nonaccrual status and/or risk-rated substandard or worse are evaluated on an individual basis for impairment. For non-impaired commercial loans and leases, loss factors are applied to outstanding loans by risk rating for each of the three classes in the segment. The factors applied are based on historic loan and lease loss experience and on an assessment of internal and external factors. Management has accumulated information on actual loan and lease charge-offs and recoveries by class covering 19 years for commercial loans and leases, six years for equipment financing loans and leases, and twelve years for loans to condominium associations. Commercial loan and lease losses generally have been infrequent and modest while no losses have been experienced from loans to condominium associations since the Company started originating such loans. During the period, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses in connection with an increase in specific reserves and charge-offs on certain impaired loans. The risk characteristics described in Originated Loans and LeasesCommercial Real Estate Loans above regarding concentration of outstanding loans within the greater Boston and Providence metropolitan areas and the status of the local economies are also applicable to the commercial and condominium association loan classes. Until the economy improves sufficiently, some commercial loan borrowers may have difficulty generating sufficient profitability and liquidity to service their debt obligations.
Regarding loans to condominium associations, loan proceeds are generally used for capital improvements and loan payments are generally derived from ongoing association dues or special assessments. While the loans are unsecured, associations are permitted statutory liens on condominium units when owners do not pay their dues or special assessments. Proceeds from the subsequent sale of an owner unit can sometimes be a source for payment of delinquent dues and assessments. Sales prices and the volume of sales of condominium units have remained depressed over the last two years. Accordingly, the risk of loss from loans to condominium associations has increased. These factors have been considered in determining the amount of allowance for loan and lease losses established for this loan class.
The Companys equipment financing loans and leases are concentrated in the financing of coin-operated laundry, dry cleaning, fitness, convenience store and, most recently, tow truck equipment, and small businesses primarily in the greater New York/New Jersey metropolitan area, but also in locations throughout the United States. The loans
BROOKLINE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
and leases are considered to be of higher risk because the borrowers are typically small-business owners who operate with limited financial resources and are more likely to experience difficulties in meeting their debt obligations when the economy is weak or unforeseen adverse events arise. Among the factors taken into consideration in establishing the allowance for loan and lease losses for the equipment financing category were the annualized rate of organic growth of loans and leases outstanding in 2012 (58.0% excluding $72.8 million in acquired loans and leases), the entrée into tow-truck lending, the increase in originated loans and leases delinquent over 30 days from $2.2 million (0.9% of originated equipment financing loans and leases outstanding excluding deferred loan origination costs) at December 31, 2011 to $3.8 million (1.1%) at September 30, 2012, and the decrease in total criticized originated loans and leases from $6.0 million at December 31, 2011 to $5.0 million at September 30, 2012.
Indirect Automobile Loans At September 30, 2012, indirect automobile loans represented 13.6% of the Companys total loan and lease portfolio (excluding deferred loan origination costs). Determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses for this segment is based primarily on borrowers credit scores (generally considered to be a good indicator of capacity to pay a loan, with the risk of loan loss increasing as credit scores decrease), and on an assessment of trends in loan underwriting, loan loss experience, and the economy and industry conditions. Data are gathered on loan originations by year broken down into the following ranges of borrower credit scores: over 700, between 661 and 700, and 660 and below. The Companys loan policy specifies underwriting guidelines based in part on the score of the borrower and includes ceilings on the percent of loans originated that can be to borrowers with credit scores of 660 and below. The breakdown of the amounts shown in Credit Quality Information below is based on borrower credit scores at the time of loan origination. Due to the weakened economy, it is possible that the credit scores of certain borrowers may have deteriorated since the time the loan was originated. Additionally, migrations of loan charge-offs and recoveries are analyzed by year of origination. Based on that data and taking into consideration other factors such as loan delinquencies and economic conditions, projections are made as to the amount of expected losses inherent in the segment.
The percentages of loans made to borrowers with credit scores of 660 and below was 3.8% and 3.1% at December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2012, respectively. Net loan charge-offs were $1.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2012.
Consumer Loans At September 30, 2012, loans outstanding within the three classes, as a percent of total loans and leases outstanding (excluding deferred loan origination costs), were as follows: residential mortgage loans 12.3%, home equity loans 6.4% and other consumer loans 0.2%.
The loan-to-value ratio is the primary credit quality indicator used for residential mortgage loans and home equity loans. Generally, loans are not made when the loan-to-value ratio exceeds 80% unless private mortgage insurance is obtained and/or there is a financially strong guarantor. The loan-to-value ratios for residential mortgage loans are based on loan balances outstanding at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 expressed as a percent of appraised real estate values at the time of loan origination. The loan-to-value ratios for home equity loans outstanding at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are based on the maximum amount of credit available to a borrower plus the balance of other loans secured by the same real estate serving as collateral for the home equity loan at the time the line of credit was established expressed as a percent of the appraised value of the real estate at the time the line of credit was established. Consumer loans that become 90 days or more past due or are placed on nonaccrual regardless of past due status are reviewed on an individual basis for impairment by assessing the net realizable value of underlying collateral and the economic condition of the borrower. For non-impaired loans, loss factors are applied to loans outstanding for each class. The factors applied are based primarily on historic loan loss experience, the value of underlying collateral, underwriting standards, and trends in loan-to-value ratios, credit scores of borrowers, sales activity, selling prices, geographic concentrations and employment conditions.
Continued economic difficulties experienced by borrowers coupled with a decline in the value of underlying collateral have resulted in negligible net recoveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and net charge-offs of $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Significant risk characteristics related to the residential mortgage and home equity loan portfolios are the geographic concentration of the properties financed within selected communities in the greater Boston and Providence metropolitan areas and the economic conditions in those areas as previously commented upon in the Commercial Real Estate Loans subsection above. Additionally, the risk of loss on a home equity loan is higher since the property securing the loan has often been previously

pledged as collateral for a first mortgage loan. The Company gathers and analyzes delinquency data, to the extent that it is available on these first liens, for purposes of assessing the collectability of the second liens held for the Company even if these home equity loans are not delinquent. This data are further analyzed for performance differences between amortizing and non-amortizing home equity loans, the percentage borrowed to total loan commitment, and by the amount of payments made by the borrowers. Real estate values have declined in the past few years and, as a result, current loan-to-value ratios are likely higher than those shown in the table. Nonetheless, the exposure to loss is not considered to be high due to the combination of current property values, the low level of losses experienced in the past few years and the low level of loan delinquencies at September 30, 2012. If the local economy weakens further, however, a rise in losses in those loan classes could occur. Historically, losses in these classes have been low.
Unallocated Allowance The unallocated allowance recognizes the estimation risk associated with the allocated general and specific allowances and incorporates managements evaluation of existing conditions that are not included in the allocated allowance determinations. These conditions are reviewed quarterly by management and include general economic conditions, credit quality trends and internal loan review and regulatory examination findings.
The unallocated allowance for loan and lease losses was $2.5 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $2.7 million at June 30, 2012 and $3.0 million at December 31, 2011. The unallocated portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses declined by $0.2 million on a quarter-to-quarter basis at September 30, 2012, largely as a result of improvements in the economic environment in the greater Boston marketplace.
Credit Quality Information
Acquired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 that were classified as nonperforming loans prior to being acquired and acquired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 that are not performing in accordance with contractual terms subsequent to acquisition are not classified as nonperforming loans subsequent to acquisition because the loans are recorded in pools at net realizable value based on the principal and interest the Company expects to collect on such loans as calculated at the acquisition date. Acquired loans with reductions in estimated cash flows due to significant deteriorations post-acquisition are recorded as nonperforming loans. Judgment is required to estimate the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected when the loans are not performing in accordance with the original contractual terms.

At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
Impaired Loans and Leases
The following tables include the recorded investment and unpaid principal balances of impaired loans and leases with the related allowance amount, if applicable. Also presented are the average recorded investments in the impaired loans and leases and the related amount of interest recognized during the period that the impaired loans were impaired. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of an impaired loan or lease is in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, all payments are applied to principal, under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of an impaired loan or lease is not in doubt and the loan or lease is on nonaccrual status, contractual interest is credited to interest income when received, under the cash basis method. The average balances are calculated based on the month-end balances of the loans and leases in the period reported (unpaid balance of loans and leases outstanding excluding deferred loan origination costs):

At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. Impaired loans also include certain originated loans whose terms have been modified in such a way that they are considered troubled debt restructurings. Originated loans are considered troubled debt restructurings if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and is afforded a concession by the Company, such as, but not limited to: (i) payment deferral; (ii) a reduction of the stated interest rate for the remaining contractual life of the loan; (iii) an extension of the loans original contractual term at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for a new loan with similar risk; (iv) capitalization of interest; or (v) forgiveness of principal or interest. Generally, troubled debt restructurings are placed on nonaccrual status (and reported as nonperforming loans) until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. Loans qualify for return to accrual status once they have demonstrated performance with the restructured terms of the loan agreement for a minimum of six months. Loans may continue to be reported as troubled debt restructurings after they are returned to accrual status.
Total troubled debt restructurings of $15.5 million at September 30, 2012 and $9.9 million at December 31, 2011 included restructured loans and leases of $9.8 million and $5.2 million, respectively, which were accruing.
Loans restructured or defaulted during the following periods were as follows:

There was not a significant financial impact on the allowance for loan and lease losses from the modification of performing or nonperforming loans or leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Allowances for loan and lease losses associated with troubled debt restructurings are immaterial. There were no charge-offs to the loans or leases included in the tables during the modification process. As of September 30, 2012, there were no commitments to lend funds to debtors owing receivables whose terms had been modified in troubled debt restructurings.

(9) Derivatives and Hedging Activities
The Company may use interest-rate contracts (swaps, caps and floors) as part of interest-rate risk management strategy. Interest-rate swap, cap and floor agreements are entered into as hedges against future interest-rate fluctuations on specifically identified assets or liabilities. The Company did not have derivative fair value hedges or derivative cash flow hedges at September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011.
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative but rather, result from a service the Company provides to certain customers for a fee. The Company executes interest-rate swaps with commercial banking customers to aid them in managing their interest-rate risk. The interest-rate swap contracts allow the commercial banking customers to convert floating-rate loan payments to fixed-rate loan payments. The Company concurrently enters into offsetting swaps with a third-party financial institution, effectively minimizing its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. The third-party financial institution exchanges the customers fixed-rate loan payments for floating-rate loan payments. As the interest-rate swaps associated with this program do not meet hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and the offsetting swaps are recognized directly in earnings. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had ten interest-rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $33.4 million related to this program.
The table below presents the fair value and classification of the Companys derivative financial instruments on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2012, and the effect of the Companys derivative financial instruments on the unaudited consolidated income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2012:

(1) The amount of gain recognized in income represents changes related to the fair value of the interest rate products.
By using derivative financial instruments, the Company exposes itself to credit risk. Credit risk is the risk of failure by the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes the Company, which creates credit risk for the Company. When the fair value of a derivative is negative, the Company owes the counterparty and, therefore, it does not possess credit risk. The credit risk in derivative instruments is mitigated by entering into transactions with highly-rated counterparties that management believes to be creditworthy and by limiting the amount of exposure to each counterparty. At September 30, 2012, the estimated net credit risk exposure for derivative financial instruments was $0.1 million.
BROOKLINE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
Certain of the derivative agreements contain provisions that require the Company to post collateral if the derivative exposure exceeds a threshold amount. As of September 30, 2012, the Company has posted collateral of $0.8 million in the normal course of business.
The Company has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain credit-risk-related contingent provisions. These provisions provide the counterparty with the right to terminate its derivative positions and require the Company to settle its obligations under the agreements if the Company defaults on certain of its indebtedness or if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution.
(10) Commitments and Contingencies
Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments
The Company is party to off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet. The contract amounts reflect the extent of the involvement the Company has in particular classes of these instruments. The Companys exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments assuming that the commitments are fully funded at a later date, the borrower can meet contracted repayment obligations and any collateral or other security proves to be worthless. The Company uses the same policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk at the dates indicated are as follows:

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 the payment of a fee by the customer. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customers creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if any, is based on managements credit evaluation of the borrower.
The liability for unfunded credit commitments, which is included in other liabilities, was $0.7 million at September 30, 2012 and $0.8 million at December 31, 2011.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
Securities Available-for-Sale
The fair value of investment securities is based principally on market prices and dealer quotes received from third-party, nationally-recognized pricing services for identical investment securities such as U.S. Treasury and agency securities that are included in Level 1. These prices are validated by comparing the primary pricing source with an alternative pricing source when available. When quoted market prices for identical securities are unavailable, the Company uses market prices provided by independent pricing services based on recent trading activity and other observable information, including but not limited to market interest-rate curves, referenced credit spreads and estimated prepayment speeds where applicable. These investments include certain U.S. and government agency debt securities, municipal and corporate debt securities, and GSE residential MBSs and CMOs, all of which are included in Level 2. Certain fair values are estimated using pricing models (such as trust preferred securities) and are included in Level 3.
Interest-Rate Swaps
The fair values for the interest-rate swap assets and liabilities represent a Level 2 valuation and are based on settlement values adjusted for credit risks associated with the counterparties and the Company. Credit risk adjustments consider factors such as the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties, its net exposures and remaining contractual life. To date, the Company has not realized any losses due to counterpartys inability to pay any net uncollateralized position. The change in value of interest-rate swap assets and liabilities attributable to credit risk was not significant during the reported periods. See also Note 9, Derivatives and Hedging Activities.

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans and Leases
For nonperforming loans and leases where the credit quality of the borrower has deteriorated significantly, fair values of the underlying collateral were estimated using purchase and sales agreements (Level 2), or comparable sales or recent appraisals (Level 3), adjusted for selling costs.
Building Held-for-Sale
The building held-for-sale is carried at estimated fair value less costs to sell based on a pending sale and recent appraisal (Level 2).
Other Real Estate Owned
The Company records other real estate owned at the lower of cost or fair value. In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes purchase and sales agreements (Level 2) or comparable sales, recent appraisals or cash flows discounted at an interest rate commensurate with the risk associated with these cash flows (Level 3), adjusted for selling costs.
Repossessed Vehicles and Equipment
Repossessed vehicles and repossessed equipment are carried at estimated fair value less costs to sell based on auction pricing (Level 2).
There were no transfers between levels for assets recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis during 2012 or 2011.
Summary of Estimated Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Other Securities
The fair value of other securities are estimated using pricing models or are based on comparisons to market prices of similar securities and considered to be Level 3.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
At and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
Loans and Leases
The fair value of performing loans and leases was estimated by segregating the portfolio into its primary loan and lease categoriescommercial real estate mortgage, multi-family mortgage, construction, commercial, equipment financing, condominium association, indirect automobile, residential mortgage, home equity and other consumer. These categories were further disaggregated based upon significant financial characteristics such as type of interest rate (fixed, variable) and payment status (performing, nonperforming). The Company then discounted the contractual cash flows for each loan category using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar quality and estimates of future loan prepayments. This method of estimating fair value does not incorporate the exit price concept of fair value.
Deposits
The fair values of deposit liabilities with no stated maturity (demand, NOW, savings and money market savings accounts) are equal to the carrying amounts payable on demand. The fair value of certificates of deposit represents contractual cash flows discounted using interest rates currently offered on deposits with similar characteristics and remaining maturities. The fair value estimates for deposits do not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by the Companys core deposit relationships (deposit-based intangibles).
Borrowed Funds
The fair value of federal funds purchased is equal to the amount borrowed. The fair value of FHLBB advances and repurchase agreements represents contractual repayments discounted using interest rates currently available for borrowings with similar characteristics and remaining maturities. The fair values reported for retail repurchase agreements are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates used are representative of approximate rates currently offered on borrowings with similar characteristics and maturities. The fair values reported for subordinated deferrable interest debentures are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates used are representative of approximate rates currently offered on instruments with similar terms and maturities.

The following table presents the carrying amount, estimated fair value, and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Companys financial instruments as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. This table excludes financial instruments for which the carrying amount approximates fair value. Financial assets for which the fair value approximates carrying value include cash and cash equivalents, FHLBB and FRB stock and accrued interest receivable. Financial liabilities for which the fair value approximates carrying value include non-maturity deposits, short-term borrowings and accrued interest payable.

(13) Income Taxes
The effective rate of income tax provision was 30.6% for the 2012 third quarter compared to 40.0% for the 2011 third quarter, and 35.6% for the first nine months of 2012 compared to 40.8% for the first nine months of 2011. The decrease in the effective rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 versus the nine months ended September 31, 2011 is due to favorable state tax apportionment and low-income housing and rehabilitation tax credits. Favorable state tax apportionment and low-income housing and rehabilitation tax credits reduced the effective tax rate from 40.0% to 35.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and from 40.8% to 39.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The Company expects to realize additional federal rehabilitation tax credits associated with the Companys new offices and investments in affordable housing limited partnerships.
(14) Subsequent Event
On October 29, 2012 Hurricane Sandy made landfall in New Jersey, causing widespread property damage throughout the northeastern United States, including areas in which the Company operates, with the most significant impact in the New York City metropolitan area, Long Island, and New Jersey. Rhode Island and Connecticut were also affected.
The Company is in the early stages of assessing the operational and financial effects of the storm and is therefore unable to estimate its full operational and financial impact, if any, at this time. The Company will monitor existing loans and leases within its portfolios for performance and evaluate collateral values as property assessments and repairs progress. It is possible that these evaluations may necessitate additional provisions to the allowance for loan and lease losses. The disruption in utilities, transportation, and communications systems in the affected areas may have an impact on the volume of loan and lease originations or other operational functions.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. These statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, can generally be identified by the use of the words may, will, should, could, would, plan, potential, estimate, project, believe, intend, anticipate, expect, target and similar expressions. These statements include, among others, statements regarding the Companys intent, belief or expectations with respect to economic conditions, trends affecting the Companys financial condition or results of operations, and the Companys exposure to market, interest-rate and credit risk.
Forward-looking statements are based on the current assumptions underlying the statements and other information with respect to the beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions of management and the financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business are only expectations of future results. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the Companys forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Companys actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of, among other factors, adverse conditions in the capital and debt markets; changes in interest rates; competitive pressures from other financial institutions; the effects of continuing weakness in general economic conditions on a national basis or in the local markets in which the Company operates, including changes which adversely affect borrowers ability to service and repay our loans; changes in the value of securities and other assets; changes in loan default and charge-off rates; the adequacy of loan loss reserves; reductions in deposit levels necessitating increased borrowing to fund loans and investments; changes in government regulation; the risk that goodwill and intangibles recorded in the Companys financial statements will become impaired; and changes in assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements, as well as the other risks and uncertainties detailed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and other filings submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made.
General
Brookline Bancorp, Inc. (the Company), a Delaware corporation, operates as a multi-bank holding company for Brookline Bank and its subsidiaries; Bank Rhode Island (BankRI) and its subsidiaries; First Ipswich Bank (First Ipswich and formerly known as The First National Bank of Ipswich) and its subsidiaries; and Brookline Securities Corp.
As a commercially-focused financial institution with 44 full-service banking offices throughout Greater Boston, the North Shore of Massachusetts and Rhode Island, the Company, through Brookline Bank, BankRI and First Ipswich (the Banks), offers a wide range of commercial, business and retail banking services, including a full complement of cash management products, on-line banking services, consumer and residential loans and investment services, designed to meet the financial needs of small- to mid-sized businesses and individuals throughout Central New England. Specialty lending activities include indirect automobile loans as well as equipment financing in the New York/New Jersey metropolitan area and elsewhere.
The Company focuses its business efforts on profitably growing its commercial lending businesses, both organically and through acquisitions. The Companys customer focus, multi-bank structure, and risk management are integral to its organic growth strategy and serve to differentiate the Company from its competitors. As full-service financial institutions, the Banks and their subsidiaries focus on the continued acquisition of well-qualified customers, the deepening of long-term banking relationships through a full complement of products and excellent customer service, and strong risk management. The Companys multi-bank structure retains the local-bank orientation while relieving local bank management of the responsibility for most back-office functions which are consolidated at the holding-company level. Branding and decision-making, including credit decisioning and pricing, remain largely local in order to better meet the needs of bank customers and further motivate the Banks commercial, business and retail bankers.
The Company is subject to competition from other financial and non-financial institutions and is supervised, examined and regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB). As Massachusetts-chartered member banks, Brookline Bank and First Ipswich are also subject to regulation under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Division of Banks. BankRI is subject to regulation under the laws of the State of Rhode Island and the jurisdiction of the Banking Division of the Rhode Island Department of Business Regulation. Effective September 28, 2012, BankRI became a member of the Federal Reserve System and is now subject to the jurisdiction of the FRB. The FDIC continues to insure all of the Banks deposits. Additionally, all Massachusetts-chartered savings banks are required to be members of the Depositors Insurance Fund (DIF), a corporation that insures savings bank deposits in excess of the FDIC insurance limits of $250,000 per person. As such, Brookline Bank offers 100% insurance on all deposits as a result of a combination of insurance from the FDIC and the DIF.
The Companys common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Global Select MarketSM under the symbol BRKL.
Critical Accounting Policies
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those involving significant judgments and difficult or complex assumptions by management, often as a result of the need to make estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain or variable, which have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or net income. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. As discussed in the Companys 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the audited financial statements of Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc. as of and for the periods ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 included in the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K/A, filed on March 23, 2012, management has identified the accounting for assets and liabilities acquired, the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses, the review of goodwill and intangibles for impairment, valuation of available-for-sale securities and income tax accounting as the Companys most critical accounting policies.
Basis of Presentation
The Companys consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP as set forth by the FASB in its Accounting Standards Codification and through the rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under the authority of federal securities laws. Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current periods presentation.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation to GAAP
In addition to evaluating the Companys results of operations in accordance with GAAP, management periodically supplements this evaluation with an analysis of certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as the ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to originated loans and leases, the efficiency and tangible equity ratios, tangible book value per share and operating earnings metrics. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding the Companys underlying operating performance and trends, and facilitates comparisons with the performance assessment of financial performance, including non-interest expense control, while the tangible equity ratio and tangible book value per share are used to analyze the relative strength of the Companys capital position.
Operating earnings exclude from net income acquisition-related and other expenses; by excluding such items, the Companys results can be measured and assessed on a more consistent basis from period to period. Items excluded from operating earnings, which include, but are not limited to, acquisition-related expenses, core system conversion costs, and other charges related to executive-level management separation and severance-related costs, are generally also excluded when calculating the efficiency ratio.
In light of diversity in presentation among financial institutions, the methodologies used by the Company for determining the non-GAAP financial measures discussed above may differ from those used by other financial institutions.

Executive Overview
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company reported net income of $11.4 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, up 51.4% from the three months ended June 30, 2012. The annualized return on average assets was 0.90% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, and the annualized return on average stockholders equity was 7.53% for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2012 also included a $3.1 million increase in interest income on loans and leases. This increase is primarily comprised of a $1.7 million increase in interest income on loans and leases largely driven by growth in the lending portfolios and $1.4 million of periodic yield adjustments on acquired loans.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company reported operating income of $29.3 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to $22.0 million and $0.37 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Operating returns on average assets and average stockholders equity, at an annualized rate, were 0.79% and 6.52%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Net income for the first nine months of 2012 included higher-than-expected loan and lease loss provisions of $4.2 million specifically related to two short-term commercial credits originated by BankRI shortly after acquisition, as discussed more fully below.
Results for the first nine months of 2012 included a $12.8 million provision for credit losses of which $4.2 million was recorded in the second quarter in connection with two short-term commercial loans made by BankRI shortly after the Companys acquisition of BankRI. These loans (the two BankRI commercial loans) were based, in part, on the issuance of tax credits which, due to the unexpected and abrupt bankruptcy filing of an entity in Rhode Island related to the borrowers, were not issued. The Company has moved aggressively to resolve these loans and, as a result no additional provision was required in the third quarter of 2012. Management will continue to closely monitor the credits and their performance under the revised loan terms. On November 1, 2012, the Rhode Island Economic Development Corporation (the EDC) filed a lawsuit against multiple defendants regarding the issuance of bonds by the State of Rhode Island in 2010 and the subsequent loan by the EDC to 38 Studios, LLC. At this time, it is not expected that this lawsuit will negatively impact the carrying value of the two BankRI commercial loans.
Business fundamentals have remained strong throughout the quarter ended September 30, 2012. During the third quarter of 2012, the Companys assets grew 7.2% on an annualized basis, due primarily to annualized loan growth of 13.3% from June 30, 2012. This growth results largely from the increase in commercial real estate loans which increased 11.4% from June 30, 2012 to September 30, 2012 on an annualized basis; and commercial loans and leases which increased 35.4% from June 30, 2012 to September 30, 2012 on an annualized basis. Deposit growth also continued with total deposits up 5.3% from June 30, 2012 to September 30, 2012 on an annualized basis. The Companys core (non-certificate of deposit) deposits increased as a percentage of total deposits from 70.2% at June 30, 2012 to 70.8% at September 30, 2012. During the first nine months of 2012, the Companys assets grew 53.4% due, in part, to annualized organic loan growth of 14.2% from December 31, 2011 and, in part, as a result of the acquisition of Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc. on January 1, 2012. The acquisition of BankRI added $1.1 billion in net loans and $1.7 billion of total assets as of January 1, 2012.
Despite the increase in provision related to the two BankRI commercial loans, the third-quarter provision for credit losses returned to levels below $3.0 million, and credit quality remained strong. The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to total loans and leases increased slightly from 0.93% as of June 30, 2012 to 0.94% at September 30, 2012 and is less than the ratio at December 31, 2011 of 1.17%. This reduction in the allowance to loans and leases ratio from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 is a result of applying purchase accounting to loans acquired in the BankRI acquisition, accounting which eliminated BankRIs pre-acquisition allowance for loan and lease losses. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of the total originated loan and lease portfolio, excluding deferred loan origination costs, of $2.98 billion is 1.31%. The increase in the allowance as a percentage of originated loans and leases from December 31, 2011 is mostly related to the risk of BankRIs originated loans and leases throughout the first nine months of 2012. The Company continued to employ its historical underwriting methodology throughout the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 and continued to calculate its allowance for loan and lease losses on a historically consistent basis. This ratio may continue to increase in connection with increased levels of organic growth in future periods.
Net charge-offs for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 were $1.5 million, or 0.15% of average loans and leases on an annualized basis, compared to 0.37% for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 and 0.09% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. The difference from the second quarter of 2012 is in part as a result of the reversal of accrued interest on the two BankRI commercial loans described above. Delinquencies as a percent of total loans,
excluding deferred loan origination costs, was unchanged from June 30, 2012 at 1.16% at September 30, 2012. The two BankRI commercial loans described above represent 5.77% of delinquent loans at September 30, 2012. Other delinquent loans, excluding the two BankRI commercial loans, were 1.09% of total loans at September 30, 2012.
Net interest margin was 4.00% and 3.88%, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012. After declining in the second quarter, the yield on interest-earning assets rose 15 basis points, from 4.62% in the second quarter to 4.77% in the third quarter due largely to growth in commercial loans, leases and equipment financing portfolios and higher yields on investment securities available-for-sale. The increase in the yield on the commercial loans and lease portfolio included the benefit of a portion of $1.4 million of periodic yield adjustments on acquired loans. The yield on total earning assets was up slightly from 4.75% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to 4.77% for the three months ended September 30, 2012. This relative consistency in a highly competitive and declining interest rate environment is, in part, a result of a 32-basis-point reduction in the Companys overall cost of funds, from 1.26% in the third quarter of 2011 to 0.94% in the third quarter of 2012, as well as the decrease in the Companys loan-to-deposit ratio from 122.1% at September 30, 2011 to 116.2% at September 30, 2012. Despite the strength of the Companys net interest margin, competitive pricing pressure in all loan categories and the continuation of a low interest-rate environment, along with the Companys diminishing ability to reduce its cost of funds further, continues to place significant pressure on the Companys net interest margin and net interest income.
Non-interest income decreased $0.9 million, or 19.8%, from $4.7 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 to $3.8 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 in part as a result of the Company waiving certain deposit fees during the month of its core system conversion, and in part, as a result of a reduction of late-fee income on several large loans that were paid in full during the quarter. In addition, there were no gains or losses on the sales of investment securities during the quarter, as compared to $0.8 million of such gains during the quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Non-interest expense increased $1.8 million, or 6.3%, from $28.6 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 to $30.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, reflecting $0.9 million in increased compensation expenses, $0.4 million in increased equipment and data processing expense and $1.3 million in other expenses related to the Companys migration to standardized operating and financial reporting platforms, partially offset by a decrease in professional services and FDIC insurance expenses of $0.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
The Company remains well-capitalized as defined by its regulatory requirements with capital ratios in excess of all minimum regulatory requirements. The Companys Tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.0% at September 30, 2012. Brookline Bancorp, Inc.s tangible equity ratio of 9.1%, down from 13.9% at December 31, 2011 and 14.5% at September 30, 2011, reflects the Companys acquisition of BankRI.
On October 29, 2012 Hurricane Sandy made landfall in New Jersey, causing widespread property damage throughout the northeastern United States, including areas in which the Company operates, with the most significant impact in the New York City metropolitan area, Long Island, and New Jersey. Rhode Island and Connecticut were also affected.
The Company is in the early stages of assessing the operational and financial effects of the storm and is therefore unable to estimate its full operational and financial impact at this time. While there are no known losses at this time, the Company will monitor existing loans and leases within its portfolios for performance and evaluate collateral values as property assessments and repairs progress, evaluations that may necessitate additional provisions to the allowance for loan and lease losses. The disruption in utilities, transportation, and communications systems in the affected areas may reduce the volume of loan and lease originations or other operational functions.

Acquisition of Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc.
On January 1, 2012, the Company acquired Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc., the bank holding company for BankRI and subsidiaries. In connection with the BankRI acquisition, approximately 11 million shares of the Companys common stock with a fair value of $92.8 million were issued to Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc. shareholders. Cash paid to shareholders, exclusive of stock compensation payouts, was $113.0 million. The Company also assumed $13 million in subordinated debt from BankRI. For further information, see Note 3, Acquisition, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Financial Condition
General
Total assets at September 30, 2012 grew to $5.1 billion, an increase of $89.1 million, or an annualized 7.2% from June 30, 2012. This increase from June 30, 2012 is mostly as a result of the increase in total loans and leases which grew by $133.2 million or 13.3% on an annualized basis during the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in loans and leases from the quarter ended June 30, 2012 was comprised largely of growth in commercial real estate loans of $54.7 million, or 11.4% annualized; and an increase in commercial loans and leases of $66.5 million, or 35.4% annualized. These increases were partially offset by indirect automobile loans, which decreased $6.8 million, or 4.7% on an annualized basis during the three months ended September 30, 2012. Total assets increased by $1.8 billion since December 31, 201l, mainly due to acquisition. Total loans and leases increased by $1.4 billion during the first nine months of 2012, $1.1 billion of which related to the acquisition of BankRI. Securities available-for-sale increased by $249.4 million, or 114.7%, since December 31, 2011.
The Companys core deposits increased by $53.7 million, or 8.7% annualized, since June 30, 2012. This increase is primarily driven by growth in demand deposit accounts, which increased by $44.2 million, or 32.3% annualized, and savings accounts which increased by $17.1 million, or 13.6% on an annualized basis since June 30, 2012. Certificate of deposit accounts (CDs) increased by $236.9 million, or 39.2% annualized, since December 31, 2011. Borrowings increased by $321.3 million, or 63.4%, since December 31, 2011, $310.3 million of which related to the acquisition of BankRI. Stockholders equity as a percentage of total assets was 12.0% and 15.3% at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Total loans and leases grew to $4.1 billion at September 30, 2012 from $4.0 billion at June 30, 2012 and $2.7 billion at December 31, 2011. The increase from June 30, 2012 is largely a result of growth in the commercial loan and lease portfolio and in particular the equipment financing line which has increased 40.8% on an annualized basis including deferred loan origination costs. Growth in total loans and leases during the three- and nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 was also a result of an increase in the commercial real estate portfolio, which increased 11.4% on an annualized basis from June 30, 2012 and 74.1% on an annualized basis from December 31, 2011 including deferred loan origination costs. As a percentage of total assets, loans and leases including deferred loan origination costs increased to 81.9% at September 30, 2012, compared to 80.7% at June 30, 2012. Total loans and leases as of September 30, 2012 are comprised of three broad categories: commercial loans and leases that aggregate $2.8 billion including deferred loan origination costs, or 67.4% of the portfolio; consumer and other loans that aggregate $844.5 million including deferred loan origination costs, or 20.4% of the portfolio; and residential mortgage loans that aggregate $507.9 million including deferred loan origination costs, or 12.2% of the portfolio.
Commercial Loans and Leases
The commercial loans and leases portfolio (consisting of commercial real estate, multi-family mortgage, construction, commercial, condominium association and equipment financing), before deferred fees, increased $121.1 million, or 4.5%, since June 30, 2012 and $1.1 billion, or 62.9%, during the first nine months of 2012. This increase from June 30, 2012 was related to growth in the equipment financing portfolio, while the increase from December 31, 2011 was primarily due to $803.0 million of additional commercial loans and leases resulting from the BankRI acquisition.
Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans increased $176.2 million, or 63.8%, since December 31, 2011. Excluding $150.0 million of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans acquired in the BankRI acquisition, owner-occupied commercial real estate loans increased by $26.2 million, or 18.5%. The Companys commercial real estate group originates non-owner-occupied commercial real estate, multi-family residential real estate and construction loans. These real-estate-secured commercial loans are offered as both fixed- and adjustable-rate products. Since December 31, 2011, commercial real estate loans, not including deferred fees, increased $705.7 million, or 55.6%.
The Company originates equipment loans and leases for its own equipment financing portfolio. Equipment loans and leases, excluding deferred fees, were $424.4 million and $245.0 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. This represents an increase of $179.3 million, or 73.2%, and is primarily due to the addition of $87.4 million of equipment loans and leases resulting from the BankRI acquisition. Equipment loans and leases increased $39.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, due in part to the addition of $19.2 million in loans from a newly formed tow truck division at Eastern Funding.
Residential Mortgage Loans
Residential mortgage loans increased $157.5 million, from $349.4 million at year-end to $506.9 million at September 30, 2012. During the first nine months of 2012, the Company originated $84.0 million of mortgages for the portfolio as well as acquired $140.2 million in residential mortgage loans from the BankRI acquisition. Residential mortgage loans increased $14.8 million, or 12.0% on an annualized basis, during the third quarter of 2012.
Consumer Loans
Excluding residential mortgage loans, the consumer loan portfolio increased $186.9 million, or 227.1%, during the first nine months of 2012. The increase in consumer loans was primarily due to the addition of $192.6 million in consumer loans resulting from the BankRI acquisition. Consumer loans increased $3.0 million, or 4.6% on an annualized basis, during the three months ended September 30, 2012. The Company continues to offer consumer lending as it believes that these amortizing fixed-rate products, along with floating-rate lines of credit, possess attractive cash flow characteristics.
Indirect Automobile
The indirect automobile portfolio decreased 4.7% on an annualized basis from June 30, 2012 as a result of pricing pressures in the market, and remains flat as compared with the balance of the portfolio at December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011 as a result of the Companys unwillingness to originate loans at very low interest rates.
Loan and Lease Participations
The Company periodically enters into loan and lease participations with third parties. In accordance with GAAP, these participations are accounted for as sales and, therefore, are not included in the Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements. In some cases, the Company has continuing involvement with the loan and lease participations in the form of servicing. Servicing of the loan and lease participations typically involves collecting principal and interest payments and monitoring delinquencies on behalf of the assigned party of the participation. The Company typically receives just and adequate compensation for its servicing responsibilities.
As a result of the BankRI acquisition, the Company has a recourse obligation under a lease sale agreement for up to 8.0% of the original sold balance of approximately $9.8 million. Historically, delinquency rates for the lease portfolio have been significantly less than 8.0% and the rate at September 30, 2012 was 0.75%. At September 30, 2012, a liability for the recourse obligation of $11,000 was included in the Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans and leases, other real estate owned (OREO) and other repossessed assets. Under certain circumstances, the Company may restructure the terms of a loan or lease as a concession to a borrower. These restructured loans and leases are generally considered nonperforming loans and leases until a history of collection of at least six months on the restructured terms of the loan or lease has been established. OREO consists of real estate acquired through foreclosure proceedings and real estate acquired through acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Other repossessed assets consist of assets that have been acquired through foreclosure that are not real estate and are included in other assets on the Companys unaudited consolidated balance sheets.
Nonperforming Assets
At September 30, 2012, the Company had nonperforming assets of $23.7 million, representing 0.47% of total assets compared to nonperforming assets of $8.8 million, or 0.27% of total assets, at December 31, 2011. Although the amount of nonperforming assets increased from December 31, 2011, the overall level of nonperforming assets remained low. Of the $14.9 million increase in nonperforming assets from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2011, $9.1 million relates to the two BankRI commercial loans, as discussed in the following pages .

The $2.1 million increase in commercial real estate mortgage loans on nonaccrual from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 represents three loans, two of which were acquired in the BankRI acquisition.
The increase in multi-family mortgage loans on nonaccrual from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 was driven by two Brookline Bank loans totaling $1.4 million. The $5.4 million increase in commercial loans on nonaccrual from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 includes 26 loans and leases for $2.7 million acquired in the BankRI acquisition. As discussed more fully in Allowance for Loan and Lease LossesCommercial Loans and Leases below, an additional $2.7 million of the increase in commercial loans on nonaccrual is associated with the
two BankRI commercial loans, down from $3.8 million at June 30, 2012 due to additional charge-offs of $0.8 million and a $0.3 million paydown received. The $1.1 million increase in equipment financing nonaccruals from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 is largely a result of the 33.6% annualized increase in outstanding balances in Brookline Banks equipment financing portfolio for the same period.
The increase in nonaccruing residential mortgages of $1.0 million from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 was driven by two loans in the Brookline Bank portfolio and is down $0.8 million since June 30, 2012 due to improvement in the accrual status of two loans in the First Ipswich portfolio. Nonaccrual home equity loans of $1.0 million at September 30, 2012 is made up almost entirely of thirteen loans acquired in the BankRI acquisition.
The Company evaluates the underlying collateral of each nonperforming loan and lease and continues to pursue the collection of interest and principal. Management believes that the current level of nonperforming assets remains manageable relative to the size of the Companys loan and lease portfolio. If economic conditions were to worsen or if the marketplace were to experience prolonged economic stress, management believes it is likely that the level of nonperforming assets would increase, as would the level of charged-off loans.
Criticized and Classified Assets
The Companys management negatively rates certain assets as special mention, substandard or doubtful based on criteria established under banking regulations. These loans and leases are collectively referred to as criticized assets. Loans and leases rated as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve managements close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects of the loan or lease at some future date. Loans and leases rated as substandard are inadequately protected by the payment capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard loans and leases have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if existing deficiencies are not corrected. At September 30, 2012, the Company had $57.5 million of assets that were designated as criticized. This compares to $61.1 million and $32.4 million of assets that were designated as criticized at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
Assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan and lease losses involves substantial uncertainties and is based upon managements evaluation of the amounts required to meet estimated charge-offs in the loan and lease portfolio after weighing various factors. Managements methodology to estimate loss exposure includes an analysis of individual loans and leases deemed to be impaired, reserve allocations for various loan types based on payment status or loss experience and an unallocated allowance that is maintained based on managements assessment of many factors including the growth, composition and quality of the loan portfolio, historical loss experiences, general economic conditions and other pertinent factors. These risk factors are reviewed and revised by management where conditions indicate that the estimates initially applied are different from actual results. If credit performance is worse than anticipated, the Company could incur additional loan and lease losses in future periods.
While management evaluates currently available information in establishing the allowance for loan and lease losses, future adjustments to the allowance for loan and lease losses may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations. Management performs a comprehensive review of the allowance for loan and lease losses on a quarterly basis. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review a financial institutions allowance for loan and lease losses and carrying amounts of other real estate owned. Such agencies may require the financial institution to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.
The following tables present the changes in the allowance for loan and lease losses and the recorded investment in loans and leases by portfolio segment for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The allowance for loan and lease losses was $38.9 million at September 30, 2012 or 0.94% of total loans and leases outstanding. This compared to an allowance for loan and lease losses of $37.4 million or 0.93% of total loans and leases outstanding at June 30, 2012 and $31.7 million or 1.17% of total loans and leases outstanding at December 31, 2011. The decrease in the allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases is largely a result of the addition of BankRI loans and leases to the total amount of Company loans and leases, without a simultaneous addition of historical, pre-acquisition allowance for loan and lease losses. Excluding the impact of acquired loan portfolios and deferred loan origination costs, the allowance for loan losses was 1.31% at September 30, 2012 as compared to 1.33% and 1.25% at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The increase during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 is consistent with 24% annualized organic loan growth over the same period and conservative provisioning on problem loans. Net charge-offs totaling $5.7 million through September 30, 2012 were exceeded by a provision for loan and lease losses of $12.9 million.
Management believes that the allowance for loan and lease losses as of September 30, 2012 is appropriate based on the facts and circumstances discussed further below.
Commercial Real Estate Loans
The allowance for commercial real estate loan losses was $19.2 million or 0.97% of total commercial real estate loans outstanding at September 30, 2012. This compared to an allowance for commercial real estate loan losses of $17.9 million or 0.93% of commercial real estate loans outstanding at June 30, 2012, and $15.5 million or 1.22% of commercial real estate loans outstanding at December 31, 2011. Excluding balances in acquired loan portfolios and deferred loan origination costs, the allowance for commercial real estate loan losses as a percentage of commercial real estate loans outstanding increased to 1.38% at September 30, 2012 from 1.37% at June 30, 2012 and 1.32% at December 31, 2011.
The $3.7 million increase in the allowance for commercial real estate loans in the first nine months of 2012 was primarily driven by annualized organic loan growth of 25% over the same period. Loss factors were flat and supported by favorable asset quality trends. The ratio of total criticized commercial real estate loans to total commercial real estate loans (excluding deferred origination costs) decreased to 1.9% at September 30, 2012 from 2.1% at December 31, 2011. The ratio of originated commercial real estate loans on nonaccrual to total originated commercial real estate loans (excluding deferred origination costs) decreased to 0.27% at September 30, 2012 after having increased slightly to 0.32% at June 30, 2012 from 0.12% at December 31, 2011.
Included in the $3.7 million increase in the allowance is a $0.3 million increase in reserves for loans specifically evaluated for impairment related to a $0.3 million reserve on loan balances of $5.2 million at September 30, 2012 from no reserve at December 31, 2011 on loan balances of $2.9 million. Management evaluates several factors in determining whether an impaired loan requires a specific reserve, including the borrowers ability to service the loan, guarantor support and the value of available collateral, and believes these reserve levels are adequate.
Net charge-offs/recoveries were stable and comparable to prior periods. Net recoveries totaled $38,000 (an annualized rate of 0.01% of average loans and leases) for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with net charge-offs of $30,000 (0.01%) for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 net recoveries totaled $0.1 million (0.01%), while for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 net charge-offs totaled $30,000 (0.01%). Provisions for commercial real estate loans recorded in these periods more than adequately covered charge-offs during those periods. See the Results of OperationsProvision for Credit Losses section below for additional information.
Commercial Loans and Leases
The allowance for commercial loan and lease losses was $9.2 million or 1.13% of total commercial loans and leases outstanding at September 30, 2012. This compared to an allowance for commercial loan and lease losses of $9.0 million or 1.19% of commercial loans and leases outstanding at June 30, 2012, and $6.0 million or 1.35% of commercial loans and leases outstanding at December 31, 2011. Excluding balances in acquired loan and lease portfolios and deferred loan and lease origination costs, the allowance for commercial loan and lease losses as a percentage of commercial loans and leases outstanding was 1.61% at September 30, 2012, compared to 1.74% at June 30, 2012 and 1.44% at December 31, 2011.
The $3.2 million increase in the allowance for commercial loans and lease losses in the first nine months of 2012 was primarily driven by annualized organic loan growth of 50% over the same period. Loss factors remained flat and were supported by stable asset quality trends. The ratio of total criticized commercial loans and leases to total commercial loans and leases (excluding deferred origination costs) was 2.36% at September 30, 2012 as compared to 2.43% at June 30, 2012 and 1.40% at December 31, 2011. The initial increase in this metric resulted
from the inclusion of acquired BankRI loans and leases in the criticized loan and lease population, but this metric has trended down since the second quarter of 2012. Excluding acquired loans and leases, the ratio of originated commercial loans and leases on nonaccrual to total originated commercial loans and leases (excluding deferred origination costs) decreased to 0.92% at September 30, 2012 after having increased slightly to 1.12% at June 30, 2012 from 0.47% at December 31, 2011.
Included in the $3.2 million increase in the allowance is a $0.5 million increase in reserves for loans specifically evaluated for impairment to $0.7 million on loan balances of $6.5 million at September 30, 2012 from 0.2 million at December 31, 2010 on loan balances of $3.9 million. This increase was due primarily to the two BankRI commercial loans, which total $9.6 million and which were originated by BankRI shortly after acquisition in early 2012. These loans were based, in part, on the issuance of tax credits which, due to the unexpected and abrupt bankruptcy filing of an entity in Rhode Island related to the borrowers, were not issued. At June 30, 2012, the Company had liquidated approximately $2.6 million of available collateral. Of the remaining $7.0 million in outstanding loans, the Company recorded associated charge-offs of $3.1 million and established a specific allowance for loan losses of $1.1 million. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the borrower. In connection with the settlement agreement, payments of $0.3 million were received and an additional $0.8 million was charged-off to the specific reserve established in the second quarter of 2012. No additional specific reserves or provision were recorded in association with this relationship during the third quarter of 2012. The carrying value of the loan at September 30, 2012 was $2.8 million. Management evaluates several factors in determining whether an impaired loan requires a specific reserve, including the borrowers ability to service the loan, guarantor support and the value of available collateral, and believes these specific reserve levels are adequate as of September 30, 2012.
Excluding the two BankRI commercial loans, net charge-off experience improved over prior periods. Net charge-offs totaled $0.4 million (an annualized rate of 0.20% of average loans and leases) for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to net charge-offs of $0.1 million (0.13%) for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, net charge-offs excluding the two BankRI commercial loans totaled $0.8 million (0.11%) and $0.5 million (0.16%), respectively. Provisions for commercial loans recorded in these periods more than adequately covered charge-offs. See the Results of OperationsProvision for Credit Losses section below for additional information.
Indirect Automobile Loans
The allowance for indirect automobile loan losses trended flat to $5.6 million or 0.98% of the total indirect automobile portfolio outstanding at September 30, 2012, from $5.7 million or 0.98% of the indirect automobile portfolio outstanding at June 30, 2012 and $5.6 million or 0.98% of the indirect automobile portfolio outstanding at December 31, 2011.
Growth in the indirect automobile portfolio was also flat while credit quality metrics improved as older, riskier loans ran off and were replaced with higher-quality loans. The ratio of indirect automobile loans with borrower credit scores below 660 to the total indirect automobile portfolio (excluding deferred origination costs) decreased steadily to 3.14% at September 30, 2012 from 3.22% at June 30, 2012 and 3.76% at December 31, 2011. There were no loans individually evaluated for impairment in the indirect automobile portfolio at September 30, 2012.
Net charge-offs in the indirect automobile portfolio totaled $0.3 million (an annualized rate of 0.21% of average loans and leases) for the three months ended September 30, 2012 versus net charge-offs of $0.4 million (0.31%) for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, net charge-offs totaled $0.8 million (0.19%) and $1.2 million (0.28%). These charge-off metrics seem to further corroborate the favorable trend in credit quality within this portfolio. Provisions for indirect automobile loans recorded in these periods more than adequately covered charge-offs during those periods. See the Results of OperationsProvision for Credit Losses section below for additional information.
Consumer Loans
The allowance for consumer loan losses, including residential loans and home equity loans, was $2.4 million or 0.31% of the total consumer loan portfolio outstanding at September 30, 2012. This compared to an allowance for consumer loan losses of $2.1 million or 0.28% of consumer loans outstanding at June 30, 2012, and $1.6 million or 0.36% of consumer loans outstanding at December 31, 2011. Excluding balances in acquired loan portfolios and deferred origination costs, the allowance for consumer loan losses as a percentage of consumer loans outstanding increased to 0.54% at September 30, 2012 from 0.50% June 30, 2012 and 0.41% at December 31, 2011.
The $0.8 million increase in the allowance for consumer loans in the first nine months of 2012 was primarily driven by annualized organic loan growth of 25%. The ratio of residential and home equity loans with loan-to-value
ratios greater than 80% increased to 13.2% of total residential and home equity loans (excluding deferred origination costs) at September 30, 2012 from 10.8% at June 30, 2012 and 4.5% at December 31, 2011. Furthermore, excluding the acquired loans, the ratio of originated consumer loans on nonaccrual to total originated consumer loans (excluding deferred origination costs) trended flat to 0.47% at September 30, 2012 from 0.66% at June 30, 2012 and 0.38% at December 31, 2011. This trend is consistent with the inclusion of consumer portfolios acquired from BankRI which were originated in areas that have experienced slower recovery in the local economies and home values than has been observed in the Companys markets in the Boston metropolitan area. Management evaluates several factors in determining whether an impaired loan requires a specific reserve, including the borrowers ability to service the loan, guarantor support and the value of available collateral, and believes these reserve levels are adequate.
Included in the $0.8 million increase in the allowance is a $0.6 million increase in reserves for loans specifically evaluated for impairment to $0.6 million on loan balances of $5.4 million at September 30, 2012 from $35,000 on loan balances of $3.5 million at December 31, 2011. This increase was primarily due to the addition of eight residential loans from borrowers facing financial difficulty which were deemed impaired during the year.
Net charge-offs in the consumer loan portfolio totaled $97,000 (an annualized rate of 0.01% of average loans and leases) for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to no net charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 net charge-offs totaled $0.3 million (0.05%). No charge-offs were recorded in the comparable nine-month period in 2011. Though credit quality metrics were mixed in the first half of the year, they have returned to more normal levels in recent months. Provisions for consumer loans recorded in these periods more than adequately cover charge-offs.
Unallocated Allowance
The unallocated allowance recognizes the estimation risk associated with the allocated general and specific allowances and incorporates managements evaluation of existing conditions that are not included in the allocated allowance determinations. These conditions are reviewed quarterly by management and include general economic conditions, credit quality trends and internal loan review and regulatory examination findings.
The unallocated allowance for loan and lease losses was $2.5 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $2.7 million at June 30, 2012 and $3.0 million at December 31, 2011. The unallocated portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses declined by $0.3 million on a quarter-to-quarter basis at September 30, 2012, largely as a result of improvements in the economic environment in the greater Boston marketplace.
Investments
Total investments primarily consist of securities available-for-sale, stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (FHLBB), stock of FRB and overnight investments. Total investments comprised $536.0 million, or 10.6% of total assets at September 30, 2012, compared to $256.7 million, or 7.8% of total assets at December 31, 2011, representing an increase of $279.3 million, or 109.1%; $252.8 million of this increase relates to the acquisition of BankRI. Investment securities available-for-sale of $466.8 million increased 21.4% from June 30, 2012 to September 30, 2012, which reflects security reinvestment efforts to reduce further prepayment risk. Additionally, cash and cash equivalents decreased from $217.1 million as of June 30, 2012 to $76.3 million as of September 30, 2012, which reflects the Companys redeployment of cash to fund that investment restructuring and loan growth.
The investment portfolio provides the Company a source of short-term liquidity and acts as a counterbalance to loan and deposit flows. Maturities, calls and principal repayments totaled $158.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $110.7 million for the same period in 2011. In the first nine months of 2012, the Company sold securities available-for-sale of $157.2 million and realized gains of $0.8 million compared to sales of $0.1 million and gains of $0.1 million for the same period in 2011. These sales were initiated to restructure the Government-Sponsored Enterprise (GSE) mortgage-backed security (MBS) and GSE collateralized mortgage obligation (CMO) portfolios acquired in the BankRI acquisition which, because of coupon rates ranging from 6.50% to 3.50%, were prepaying at rapid rates in comparison to the FHLBB advances which funded the investments. Accordingly, during the first nine months of 2012, the Company purchased $252.3 million of available-for-sale securities compared to $45.2 million during the same period in 2011.
Securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value. At September 30, 2012, the fair value of securities available-for-sale was $466.8 million and carried a total of $5.5 million of net unrealized gains at the end of the quarter, compared to $2.9 million at December 31, 2011. The change in the unrealized loss of the remaining securities available-for-sale is due to general market concerns about the liquidity and creditworthiness of the issuers
of the securities. Management believes that it will recover the amortized cost basis of the securities and that it is more likely than not that it will not sell the securities before recovery. As such, management has determined that the securities are not other-than-temporarily impaired as of September 30, 2012. If market conditions for securities worsen or the creditworthiness of the underlying issuers deteriorates, it is possible that the Company may recognize additional other-than-temporary impairments in future periods.
Auction-Rate Municipal Obligations
The auction-rate obligations owned by the Company were rated AAA at the time of acquisition due, in part, to the guarantee of third-party insurers who would have to pay the obligations if the issuers failed to pay the obligations when they become due. During the recent financial crisis certain third-party insurers experienced financial difficulties and were not able to meet their contractual obligations. As a result, auctions failed to attract a sufficient number of investors and created a liquidity problem for those investors who were relying on the obligations to be redeemed at auction. Since then, there has not been an active market for auction-rate municipal obligations.
Based on an evaluation of market factors, the estimated fair value of the auction-rate municipal obligations owned by the Company at September 30, 2012 was $2.3 million with a corresponding net unrealized loss of $0.1 million. Full collection of the obligations is expected because the financial condition of the issuers is sound, none of the issuers has defaulted on scheduled payments, the obligations are rated investment grade and the Company has the ability and intent to hold the obligations for a period of time to recover the unrealized losses.
Corporate Obligations
From time to time, the Company will invest in high-quality corporate obligations to provide portfolio diversification and improve the overall yield on the portfolio. The Company owned 10 corporate obligation securities with a total fair value of $24.9 million and total net unrealized gains of $0.1 million as of September 30, 2012. All but two of these securities are investment grade. Both securities are currently in unrealized gain positions.
Trust Preferred Securities and PreTSLs
Trust preferred securities represent subordinated debt issued by financial institutions. These securities are sometimes pooled and sold to investors through structured vehicles known as PreTSLs. When issued, PreTSLs are divided into tranches or segments that establish priority rights to cash flows from the underlying trust preferred securities. At September 30, 2012, the Company owned four trust preferred securities and two PreTSL pools with a total fair value of $3.4 million and a total net unrealized loss of $0.4 million.
During the three months ended September 30, 2012 a third pooled trust preferred security known as PreTSL A was called and the Company received a final payment of $0.2 million of principal and interest after recording a total of $0.1 million in OTTI on this security in 2010. No charges have been recorded since due to the prospects of the trust preferred issuers, the excess subordination on the PreTSLs and the Companys ability and intent to hold the securities to recovery.
Mortgage Securities
The Company invests in GSE CMOs, GSE MBSs, and private-label CMOs. As of September 30, 2012, the Company held mortgage-related securities with a total fair value of $347.1 million and a net unrealized gain of $5.2 million. During 2012 the company purchased a total of $252.2 million in GSE CMOs and GSE MBSs to reinvest matured cash flow and rebalance the BankRI portfolio from high-coupon, quickly prepaying GSE MBSs into lower-coupon GSE CMOs and GSE MBSs with slower prepayment speeds.
Agency Securities
The Company invests in securities issued by GSEs. As of September 30, 2012, the Company held GSE securities with a total fair value of $86.6 million and a net unrealized gain of $0.5 million.
Federal Reserve Bank Stock
The Company invests in the stock of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, as required by its subsidiary Banks membership in the Federal Reserve System. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2012 the Company increased its investment in the stock of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston by $7.0 million simultaneously with the FRB becoming BankRIs primary federal regulator.
FHLBB Stock
The Company invests in the stock of the FHLBB as one of the requirements to borrow. The Company maintains an excess balance of capital stock of $13.4 million which allows for additional borrowing capacity at each subsidiary
institution. The balance of FHLBB stock has remained constant during three months ended September 30, 2012 as the Company has not purchased additional stock and the FHLBB has not redeemed any excess stock during the quarter.
Premises and Equipment
On October 29, 2012, the Company moved its headquarters from 160 Washington Street in Brookline, Massachusetts to 131 Clarendon Street in Boston, Massachusetts. The Company has entered into contracts for capital expenditures associated with the rehabilitation of its new headquarters in Boston. In addition to building and land costs of $14.0 million, refurbishment expenses totaling $17.7 million have been capitalized at September 30, 2012. Remaining refurbishment commitments totaling $5.9 million are payable through December 31, 2012. The increase in total depreciable assets associated with the new headquarters, estimated at $32.3 million, is anticipated to be depreciated over 3 to 40 years. The Company realized $0.3 million of tax credits during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and expects to realize further federal tax credits throughout the remainder of 2012 associated with this refurbishment. See Provision for Income Taxes below.
Assets included a building held for sale with a fair value of $6.0 million. A loss of $0.1 million included in other non-interest expenses was recorded in the first quarter 2012 and the Company does not expect further losses in connection with the sale of this property.
The Company has also entered into contracts associated with the conversion of its core operating systems. Costs related to the conversion, maintenance and operation of these systems will total approximately $8.1 million through the end of 2012. Ongoing maintenance and operation contracts extend over seven years. Annual expenses are expected to increase over that period based on the volume of transactions. At September 30, 2012, $6.8 million in conversion expenses have been capitalized to date, and the Company expects to capitalize a total of $7.6 million through the second quarter of 2013. These capitalized costs will be depreciated over a period of three to seven years. The Company anticipates that the conversion will result in lower overall operating system costs.
Deposits
The Company seeks to increase its percentage of core (non-certificate of deposit) deposits and decrease its loan-to-deposit ratio over time, while continuing to increase deposits as a percentage of total funding sources. This strategic goal, however, is difficult when loans and leases grow at double-digit rates. Total deposits increased by $1.3 billion, or 58.4%, $1.1 billion of which related to the acquisition of BankRI, during the first nine months of 2012, from $2.3 billion, or 68.3% of total assets at December 31, 2011, to $3.6 billion, or 70.5% of total assets at September 30, 2012. The Companys loan-to-deposit ratio declined to 116.2% at September 30, 2012 from 120.8% at December 31, 2011.
During the first nine months of 2012, core deposits increased $1.1 billion, or 74.6%, rising from 64.2% of total deposits at December 31, 2011 to 70.8% of total deposits at September 30, 2012. This increase was primarily driven by the addition of $845.0 million in core deposits from the BankRI acquisition as well as organic growth of 18.0%.
Certificates of deposit (excluding brokered deposits) increased $236.9 million, or 29.4%, during the first nine months of 2012, due primarily to the acquisition of BankRI. However, since March 31, 2012, certificate of deposit balances have decreased $19.0 million. Certificates of deposit have also fallen as a percentage of total deposits during the first nine months of 2012, from 35.8% at December 31, 2011 to 29.2% at September 30, 2012.

The Companys ability to increase its percentage of core deposits, decrease its loan-to-deposit ratio and increase deposits as a percentage of total funding sources is dependent on loan growth rates and market factors that may be beyond the control of the Company.
Borrowings
On a long-term basis, the Company intends to continue to increase its core deposits and may utilize FHLBB borrowings and other wholesale borrowing opportunistically as part of the Companys overall strategy to fund loan growth and manage interest-rate risk and liquidity. The Company periodically enters into repurchase agreements with its larger deposit and commercial customers as part of its cash management services which are typically overnight borrowings. The Company may also borrow from the Federal Reserve discount window as necessary.
Short-term borrowings and repurchase agreements with Company customers increased $48.8 million during the first nine months of 2012 to $57.1 million from the December 31, 2011 level of $8.3 million due primarily to the BankRI acquisition. FHLBB borrowings increased by $272.5 million to $771.1 million at September 30, 2012 from the December 31, 2011 balance of $498.6 million. The increase in FHLBB borrowings was primarily due to $235.1 million of additional borrowings resulting from the BankRI acquisition, $55.4 million of which matured during the first nine months of 2012. Additional increases in FHLBB borrowings were used to fund loan growth not funded by increased deposits.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company has entered into interest-rate swaps with certain of its commercial customers and concurrently enters into offsetting swaps with third-party financial institutions. The Company did not have derivative fair value hedges or derivative cash flow hedges at September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

Stockholders Equity and Dividends
Brookline Bancorp, Inc.s total stockholders equity was $606.0 million at September 30, 2012, a $102.4 million increase compared to $503.6 million at December 31, 2011. The increase primarily reflects the issuance of approximately 11 million shares of the Companys common stock with a fair value of $92.8 million in connection with the Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc. acquisition as well as net income of $25.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, partially offset by dividends paid of $17.8 million in that same period. The dividends paid in the third quarter of 2012 represented the Companys 54th consecutive quarter of dividend payments, and the 42nd consecutive quarter in which the Company paid a dividend of $0.085.
Stockholders equity represented 12.0% of total assets at September 30, 2012 and 15.3% at December 31, 2011. Tangible stockholders equity (total stockholders equity less goodwill and identified intangible assets, net) represented 9.1% of tangible assets (total assets less goodwill and identified intangible assets, net) at September 30, 2012 and 13.9% at December 31, 2011.
Results of Operations
The primary drivers of the Companys operating income are net interest income, which is strongly affected by the net yield on interest-earning assets and liabilities (net interest margin), the quality of the Companys assets, its levels of non-interest income and non-interest expense, and its tax provision.
The Companys net interest income represents the difference between interest income earned on its investments, loans and leases, and its cost of funds. Interest income depends on the amount of interest-earning assets outstanding during the period and the yield earned thereon. Cost of funds is a function of the average amount of deposits and borrowed money outstanding during the year and the interest rates paid thereon. The net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income by average interest-earning assets. Net interest spread is the difference between the average rate earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The increases (decreases) in the components of interest income and interest expense, expressed in terms of fluctuation in average volume and rate, are summarized under Rate/Volume Analysis on page 67. Information as to the components of interest income, interest expense and average rates is provided under Average Balances, Net Interest Income, Interest Rate Spread and Net Interest Margin on pages 65 and 66.
Because the Companys assets and liabilities are not identical in duration and in repricing dates, the differential between the asset and liability repricing and duration is vulnerable to changes in market interest rates as well as the overall shape of the yield curve. These vulnerabilities are inherent to the business of banking and are commonly referred to as interest-rate risk. How interest-rate risk is measured and, once measured, how much interest-rate risk is taken are based on numerous assumptions and other subjective judgments. See the discussion under Interest-Rate Risk on pages 72 to 74.
The quality of the Companys assets also influences its earnings. Loans and leases that are not paid on a timely basis and exhibit other weaknesses can result in the loss of principal and/or interest income. Additionally, the Company must make timely provisions to the allowance for loan and lease losses based on estimates of probable losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. These additions, which are charged against earnings, are necessarily greater when greater probable losses are expected. Further, the Company incurs expenses as a result of resolving troubled assets. These variables reflect the credit risk that the Company takes on in the ordinary course of business and are further discussed under Financial Condition Asset Quality on pages 53 to 54.
General
The Companys net income of $11.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased by $3.9 million, or 51.4%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012. Compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, operating income increased $4.6 million, or 68.6%, after adjustment for acquisition-related expenses of $0.5 million (after-tax) that were incurred during the third quarter of 2011 and which were associated with the acquisition of the First National Bank of Ipswich (now First Ipswich Bank). Diluted operating EPS increased 45.5% compared to the second quarter of 2012, from $0.11 to $0.16, and increased 33.3% compared to the third quarter of 2011, from $0.12 to $0.16.

Net Interest Income
During the third quarter of 2012, net interest income increased by $3.7 million, or 8.5%, and the net interest margin increased by 19 basis points (bps), from 3.81% to 4.00%, compared to the second quarter of 2012. This increase from the second quarter 2012 reflects an increase of $3.1 million in interest income on loans and leases due mostly to loan growth as well as $1.4 million of periodic yield adjustments on acquired loans. The increase in yield on interest-earning assets from 4.62% in the second quarter of 2012 to 4.77% in the third quarter of 2012 included the periodic yield adjustments on acquired loans and the effect of the increased yield on the growing equipment financing portfolio, as well as an increase in interest income on debt securities. The normalized net interest margin, which excluded the periodic yield adjustments on acquired loans, was 3.86% and is up from 3.81% at June 30, 2012 largely as a result of Brookline Bancorps continuing efforts to maintain loan yields in a persistently challenging interest-rate environment.
The average balance of interest-earning assets and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities in the third quarter of 2012 increased by $147.8 million and $91.6 million, respectively, from the second quarter of 2012. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2012 by 4 bps, from 0.98% to 0.94%. This decrease was driven by the replacement of one long-term higher-rate FHLBB advance with FHLBB advances of shorter maturities and lower interest rates.
Compared to the third quarter of 2011, net interest income increased $18.5 million in the third quarter of 2012, $15.2 million of which was contributed by BankRI, and the net interest margin increased by 26 bps. The increase in net interest margin from the third quarter of 2011 to the third quarter of 2012 was driven by numerous factors, including an increase in average interest-earning assets of $1.7 billion, a decline in the Companys loan-to-deposit ratio from 122.1% to 116.2%, an increase in the ratio of core deposits to total deposits from 62.9% to 70.8%, an increase in average non-interest bearing deposits of $383.8 million, or from 8.7% to 16.1% of average total deposits, and $1.4 million of periodic yield adjustments on acquired loans, all of which offset the decline in yields on interest-earning assets resulting from the depressed yield curve, intense competitive pressure and purchase accounting. The yield on interest-earning assets increased from 4.75% in the third quarter of 2011 to 4.77% in the third quarter of
2012 was driven by the periodic yield adjustments on acquired loans in commercial and other consumer loans as well as the effect of the increased yield on the growing equipment financing portfolio. The yield on commercial real estate loans decreased as a result of interest rate pressure on loans originated in Providence, Rhode Island as compared to loans originated in Boston, Massachusetts. Other decreases in yield in other interest-earning assets during the third quarter of 2012 as compared to the third quarter of 2011 reflect increased refinancing activity and originations into lower-rate options.
The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 32 bps from 1.26% in the third quarter of 2011 to 0.94% in the third quarter of 2012. This decrease is in part due to the lower cost of funds at BankRI, and in part due to decreases in interest rates over time. Higher-cost trust preferred securities acquired as part of the acquisition of BankRI have slightly offset the decrease in overall cost of funds in the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net interest income increased $51.1million, or 62.6%, and the net interest margin increased by 13 bps, from 3.75% to 3.88%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase is largely the result of increased commercial real estate and commercial loan and lease balances in connection with the acquisition of BankRI on January 1, 2012.
The decrease in yield on interest-earning assets from 4.80% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to 4.68% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 is largely due to increased refinancing activity and originations into lower rate options. The decreased cost of interest-bearing liabilities during the same period is in part due to the lower cost-of-funds at BankRI, and in part to decreases in interest rates over time. Higher cost trust preferred securities acquired as part of the acquisition of BankRI have slightly offset the decrease in overall cost of funds in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
Future net interest income, net interest spread and net interest margin may continue to be negatively affected by the low interest-rate environment; ongoing pricing pressures in both loan and deposit portfolios; and the ability of the Company to increase its core deposit ratio, increase its non-interest-bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits, decrease its loan-to-deposit ratio, or decrease its reliance on FHLBB advances. It may also be negatively affected by changes in the amount of purchase accounting accretion and amortization included in interest income and interest expense.
Average Balances, Net Interest Income, Interest Rate Spread and Net Interest Margin
The following tables set forth information about the Companys average balances, interest income and interest rates earned on average interest-earning assets, interest expense and interest rates paid on average interest-bearing liabilities, interest-rate spread and net interest margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. Average balances are derived from daily average balances and yields include fees, costs and purchase-accounting-related premiums and discounts which are considered adjustments to coupon yields in accordance with GAAP. Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current periods presentation.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following table presents, on a tax-equivalent basis, the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected the Companys interest income and interest expense during the periods indicated. Information is provided in each category with respect to: (i) changes attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate), (ii) changes attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume), and (iii) the net change. The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately to the changes due to volume and the changes due to rate.

Net interest income increased $18.5 million on a quarter-over-quarter basis during the three months ended September 30, 2012, in large part as a result of the increase in acquired net assets, and to a lesser degree, as a result of organic growth. Interest-rate reductions of $0.9 million on earning assets were offset by funding-rate reductions of $2.2 million.
Net interest income increased $3.7 million on a quarter-to-quarter basis at September 30, 2012 primarily due to the impact of rate increases on net interest income ($1.9 million) and funding-rate reductions ($0.5 million), and the $1.3 million increase in interest income resulting from an increase in net interest-earning assets in the third quarter 2012.
For the first nine months of 2012 as compared to the first nine months of 2011, net interest income increased $51.1 million, in large part as a result of the increase in acquired net assets, and to a lesser degree as a result of organic growth. Interest-rate reductions of $5.3 million on earning assets were offset by funding-rate reductions of $6.6 million.

The provisions for credit losses in the third quarters of 2012 and 2011 were $2.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2012 includes provisions for loan and lease losses of $3.0 million and a $(0.2) million provision for unfunded commitments. The provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2011 includes provisions for loan and lease losses of $0.9 million and no provision for unfunded commitments.
The provisions for credit losses in the first nine months of 2012 and 2011 were $12.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The provision for credit losses in the first nine months of 2012 includes provisions for loan and lease losses of $12.9 million and a $(0.2) million provision for unfunded commitments. The provision for credit losses in the first nine months of 2011 includes provisions for loan and lease losses of $3.1 million and a $(0.3) million provision for unfunded commitments.
Liability for Unfunded Credit Commitments
The liability for unfunded credit commitments, which is included in other liabilities, was $0.7 million at September 30, 2012 and $0.8 million at September 30, 2011. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, the liability for unfunded credit commitments decreased by $0.1 million to reflect changes in the estimate of loss exposure associated with credit commitments. No credit commitments were charged off against the liability account in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 or 2011, respectively.
Provision for Loan Losses
The $2.1 million increase in the provision for loan and lease losses in the third quarter of 2012 compared with the third quarter of 2011 was largely attributable to organic loan and lease growth. Originated loans at September 30, 2012 totaled $3.0 billion before deferred loan origination costs as compared to $2.5 billion at September 30, 2011, an increase of 21% in loan balances year over year.
The $9.8 million increase in the provision for loan and lease losses in the first nine months of 2012 compared with the first nine months of 2011 was attributable to the organic loan and lease growth just described and to additional provisioning totaling $4.2 million recorded in the second quarter of 2012 on two commercial loans originated shortly after the acquisition of BankRI as discussed more fully in Managements discussion of Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses.
See Note 7, Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements as well as Financial ConditionAllowance for Loan and Lease Losses above for a description of how management determined the allowance for loan and lease losses for each segment and class of loans.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2012 decreased on a quarter-to-quarter basis by $0.9 million in part as a result of the Company waiving certain deposit fees during the month of the core system conversion and, in part, as a result of a reduction of late-fee income on several large loans that were paid in full during the quarter. In addition, there were no net gains on sales of investment securities as compared to the second quarter of 2012, when the Company realized $0.8 million in such gains.
Year-to-date 2012 non-interest income increased $8.5 million compared to the first nine months of 2011. The increase is primarily due to the acquisition of BankRI and a related increase in fee income.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense in the third quarter of 2012 increased $1.8 million compared to the second quarter of 2012. The net increase was largely attributable to higher compensation and equipment and data processing expenses, partially offset by decreases in professional services and FDIC insurance expenses. Compensation expense increased $0.9 million quarter-to-quarter as a result of the seasonal addition of branch staff and addition of individuals integral to the strengthening of key Company infrastructure to support future growth. Equipment and data processing expense increased $0.4 million on a quarter-to-quarter basis due in part to termination charges associated with the Companys core system conversion. The $1.3 million increase in other expenses included $0.3 million of additional acquisition related expenses as well as other expenses, totaling approximately $1.0 million, incurred in conjunction with the integration of shared back-office services and the ongoing improvement of the Companys infrastructure. In connection with the improvement of the Companys infrastructure, professional services expenses continued to decline, totaling $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2012 compared to $2.6 million in the second quarter and $6.5 million in the first quarter.
Year-to-date 2012 non-interest expense increased $45.3 million compared to the first nine months of 2011. The increase was largely attributable to the addition of BankRI expenses and acquisition-related expenses of $5.4 million in the first quarter of 2012. Compensation and employee benefit expenses were $43.1 million in the first nine months of 2012 compared to $22.3 million in the first nine months of 2011 and professional services expenses were $10.9 million in the first nine months of 2012 as compared to $4.1 million in the first nine months of 2011.
Provision for Income Taxes
The effective rate of income tax provision was 30.6% for the 2012 third quarter compared with 40.0% for the 2011 third quarter, and 35.6% for the first nine months of 2012 compared with 40.8% for the first nine months of 2011. The tax provision during the three months ended September 30, 2012 benefited, in part, from the inclusion of approximately $0.3 million in additional federal tax credits for the refurbishment of the Companys new headquarters attributable to an increase in expenditures eligible for the credit. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company realized a total of $1.4 million in federal rehabilitation tax credits for the refurbishment of the Companys new headquarters.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Liquidity is defined as the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Company further defines liquidity as the ability to respond to the needs of depositors and borrowers, as well as to earnings enhancement opportunities, in a changing marketplace.
The primary source of funds for the payment of dividends and expenses by the Company is dividends paid to it by its Banks and Brookline Securities Corp. Bank regulatory authorities generally restrict the amounts available for payment of dividends if the effect thereof would cause the capital of any Bank to be reduced below applicable capital requirements. These restrictions indirectly affect the Companys ability to pay dividends. The primary sources of liquidity for the Banks consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, borrowed funds and maturing investment securities and sales of securities from the available-for-sale portfolio. While management believes that these sources are sufficient to fund the Banks lending and investment activities, the availabilities of these funding sources are subject to broad economic conditions and could be restricted in the future. Such restrictions would impact the Companys immediate liquidity and/or additional liquidity needs.
Management is responsible for establishing and monitoring liquidity targets as well as strategies and tactics to meet these targets. In general, the Company seeks to maintain a high degree of liquidity and targets cash and equivalents and available-for-sale security balances of between 10% to 30% of total assets. At September 30, 2012, cash and equivalents and available-for-sale securities totaled $543.1 million, or 10.7% of total assets. This compares to $323.7 million, or 9.8% of total assets at December 31, 2011. The Banks are members of the FHLBB and, as such, have access to both short- and long-term borrowings. The Banks also have access to funding through retail repurchase agreements, brokered deposits and $119 million of uncommitted lines of credit, and may utilize additional sources of funding in the future, including borrowings at the Federal Reserve discount window, to supplement its liquidity. At this time management believes that the Company has adequate liquidity to meet its commitments.
Capital Resources
Total stockholders equity of the Company was $606.0 million at September 30, 2012 compared to $598.9 million at June 30, 2012 and $503.6 million at December 31, 2011. The increase from December 31, 2011 was primarily due to the issuance of approximately 11 million shares of the Companys common stock with a fair value of approximately $92.8 million to Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc. shareholders in connection with the BankRI acquisition.
The Company is a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and, as such, must comply with the capital requirements of the FRB at the consolidated level. Brookline Bank, BankRI and First Ipswich are required to comply with the regulatory capital requirements of the FRB. Brookline Bank, because it filed a Thrift Financial Report under prior Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) regulations at December 31, 2011, was required to comply with OTS regulatory capital requirements at that date. At December 31, 2011, BankRI was required to comply with the regulatory capital requirements of the FDIC.
As of September 30, 2012, the Company, Brookline Bank, BankRI and First Ipswich met all applicable minimum capital requirements and were considered well-capitalized by their respective regulators. The Companys and the Banks actual and required capital amounts and ratios are as follows:

Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments
See Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements above for a description of off-balance-sheet financial instruments.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that the market value or estimated fair value of the Companys assets, liabilities, and derivative financial instruments will decline as a result of changes in interest rates or financial market volatility, or that the Companys net income will be significantly reduced by interest-rate changes. Market risk is managed operationally by the Companys Treasury Group, and is addressed through a selection of funding and hedging instruments supporting balance sheet assets, as well as monitoring of the Companys asset investment strategies.
Asset Liability Management
Management and the Treasury Group continually monitor the Companys sensitivity to interest-rate changes. It is the Companys policy to maintain an acceptable level of interest-rate risk over a range of possible changes in interest rates while remaining responsive to market demand for loan and deposit products. The strategy the Company employs to manage its interest-rate risk is to measure its risk using an asset/liability simulation model. The model considers several factors to determine the Companys potential exposure to interest-rate risk, including measurement of repricing gaps, duration, convexity, value at risk, and the market value of portfolio equity under assumed changes in the level of interest rates, shape of the yield curves, and general market volatility. Management controls the Companys interest-rate exposure using several strategies, which include adjusting the maturities of securities in the Companys investment portfolio, and limiting fixed-rate deposits with terms of more than five years. The Company may use derivative instruments, principally interest-rate swaps, to manage its interest-rate risk; however, the Company had no derivative fair value hedges or derivative cash flows at September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011. See Note 9, Derivatives and Hedging Activities, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Interest-Rate Risk
The principal market risk facing the Company is interest-rate risk, which can come in a variety of forms, including repricing risk, yield-curve risk, basis risk, and prepayment risk. The Company experiences repricing risk when the change in the average yield of either its interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities is more sensitive than the other to changes in market interest rates. Such a change in sensitivity could reflect a number of possible mismatches in the repricing opportunities of the Companys assets and liabilities.
In the event that yields on its assets and liabilities do adjust to changes in market rates to the same extent, the Company may still be exposed to yield-curve risk. Yield-curve risk reflects the possibility that the changes in the shape of the yield curve could have different effects on the Companys assets and liabilities.
Variable- or floating-rate assets and liabilities that reprice at similar times and have base rates of similar maturity may still be subject to interest-rate risk. If financial instruments have different base rates, the Company is subject to basis risk reflecting the possibility that the spread from those base rates will deviate.
The Company holds mortgage-related investments, including mortgage loans and MBSs. Prepayment risk is associated with mortgage-related investments and results from homeowners ability to pay off their mortgage loans prior to maturity. The Company limits this risk by restricting the types of MBSs it may own to those with limited average life changes under certain interest-rate-shock scenarios, or securities with embedded prepayment penalties. The Company also limits the fixed-rate mortgage loans held with maturities greater than five years.
Interest-rate risk management is governed by the Companys Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO). The ALCO establishes exposure limits that define the Companys tolerance for interest-rate risk. The ALCO monitors current exposures versus limits and reports results to the Board of Directors. The policy limits and guidelines serve as benchmarks for measuring interest-rate risk and for providing a framework for evaluation and interest-rate risk management decision making. The primary tools for managing interest-rate risk currently are the securities portfolio, purchased mortgages, retail repurchase agreements and borrowings from the FHLBB.
Measuring Interest-Rate Risk
As noted above, interest-rate risk can be measured by analyzing the extent to which the repricing of assets and liabilities are mismatched to create an interest-rate sensitivity gap. An asset or liability is said to be interest-rate sensitive within a specific period if it will mature or reprice within that period. The interest-rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time
period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that same time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest-rate-sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest-rate-sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest-rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest-rate-sensitive assets. During a period of falling interest rates, therefore, a positive gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income. Conversely, during a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap position would tend to result in an increase in net interest income.
The Companys objective regarding interest-rate risk is to manage its assets and funding sources to produce results which are consistent with its liquidity, capital adequacy, growth and profitability goals, while maintaining interest-rate risk exposure within established parameters over a range of possible interest-rate scenarios.
The Companys interest-rate risk position is measured using both income simulation and interest-rate sensitivity gap analysis. Income simulation is the primary tool for measuring the interest-rate risk inherent in the Companys balance sheet at a given point in time by showing the effect on net interest income, over a twelve-month period, of a variety of interest-rate shocks. These simulations take into account repricing, maturity and prepayment characteristics of individual products. The ALCO reviews simulation results to determine whether the exposure resulting from changes in market interest rates remains within established tolerance levels over a twelve-month horizon, and develops appropriate strategies to manage this exposure. The Companys interest-rate risk analysis remains modestly asset-sensitive at September 30, 2012.
Management believes that net interest income might increase by more than the modeled amount in the possible situation of rising interest rates. Management might decide to retain more longer-duration assets after interest rates increase, and this would contribute additional income in the case of a parallel shift in the yield curve. Also, the Company has experienced certain market floors on deposit pricing in the current near-zero short-term interest-rate environment. In the case of rising rates, deposits might not increase in rate as quickly as they are modeled since they are currently above other comparable market rates in some cases. Additionally, in some scenarios, the Companys fee income might also increase as a result of improved economic and market conditions that might be related to higher market interest rates.
As of September 30, 2012, net interest income simulation indicated that the Companys exposure to changing interest rates was within tolerance. The ALCO reviews the methodology utilized for calculating interest-rate risk exposure and may periodically adopt modifications to this methodology. The following table presents the estimated impact of interest-rate shocks on the Companys estimated net interest income over the twelve-month periods indicated:

The Company also uses interest-rate sensitivity gap analysis to provide a more general overview of its interest-rate risk profile. The interest-rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within a given time period. At September 30, 2012, the Companys one-year cumulative gap was a negative $451.1 million, or negative 9% of total assets, compared with a negative $487 million, or 10% of total assets at June 30, 2012 and a negative $684 million, or 21% of total assets at December 31, 2011.
For additional discussion on interest-rate risk see Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk on pages 62 to 65 of the Companys 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The assumptions used in the Companys interest-rate sensitivity simulation discussed above are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the simulations cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and the Companys Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
There were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Companys most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting. The Company continues to enhance its internal controls over financial reporting, primarily by evaluating and enhancing processes and control documentation. Management discusses with and discloses these matters to the Board of Directors and the Companys auditors.
The Company does not expect that disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well-conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedures are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns in controls or procedures can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
There are no material pending legal proceedings other than those that arise in the normal course. In the opinion of management, after consulting with legal counsel, the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company are not expected to be affected materially by the outcome of such proceedings.
See Note 14, Subsequent Events, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements above for a description of additional risk factors identified during the three months ended September 30, 2012. There have been no other material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
