Diluted EPS of $0.30; Non-Performing Assets Decline 36.5%
BROOKLYN, NY, Jul. 23, 2010 (Marketwire) --
BROOKLYN, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 07/23/10 -- Dime Community Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: DCOM) (the "Company"), the parent company of The Dime Savings Bank of Williamsburgh ("Dime"), today reported consolidated net income of $10.0 million, or 30 cents per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to $9.5 million, or 28 cents per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and $6.9 million, or 21 cents per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE QUARTERLY PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2010
-- Total assets increased by $34.3 million to $4.15 billion at
June 30, 2010, as the Company increased its liquidity position,
which will provide greater flexibility in managing its balance
sheet for the remainder of 2010.
-- Net interest margin was 3.35%, compared to 3.46% in the March 2010
quarter. The average cost of deposits declined 4 basis points to 1.33%
from 1.37% during the March 2010 quarter.
-- Total loan credit costs were $3.8 million, or 9 cents per share after
taxes.
-- The Bank disposed of $32.2 million of non-performing loans held either
in its own portfolio or its portfolio of loans sold to Fannie Mae with
recourse obligation.
-- The disposal of $14.4 million of non-performing portfolio loans led to
a decline in non-performing assets to $19.6 million, or 0.47% of total
assets at June 30, 2010. Loans sold to Fannie Mae with recourse that
were delinquent 90 days or more declined from $16.4 million to
$618,000.
-- The allowance for loan losses increased to 124.9% of non-performing
loans at June 30, 2010.
-- Loans delinquent between 30 and 89 days decreased to $11.1 million at
June 30, 2010 compared to $19.7 million at March 31, 2010.
-- Real estate loan originations were $113.5 million, down from the
$146.4 million level in the March 2010 quarter, as the Bank was more
selective in making additions to the portfolio in the last quarter
given the aggressive pricing that began to characterize the multifamily
market.
-- Despite the asset growth experienced during the most recent quarter,
the Company's consolidated ratio of tangible capital to tangible assets
grew to 6.46% at June 30, 2010 from 6.35% at March 31, 2010.
The Company's earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 reflected an after-tax other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") charge of approximately $279,000 on two pooled bank trust preferred securities, an additional after-tax charge of $98,000 on the write-down of other real estate owned ("OREO") properties, and a non-recurring addition of $292,000 to income tax expense to adjust the deferred income tax benefit previously applied to the OTTI charges recognized on several equity mutual fund investments. Partially offsetting these items was a gain of $263,000 on the sale of some mutual fund equity holdings on which the Company recognized an OTTI charge in early 2009. The Company's earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 reflected an after-tax OTTI charge of approximately $91,000 on three pooled bank trust preferred securities, and an additional after-tax charge of $125,000 on the write-down of OREO properties. Partially offsetting these items was an after-tax gain of $160,000 on the sale of some mutual fund equity holdings on which the Company recognized an OTTI charge in early 2009. The Company's earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 reflected an after-tax OTTI charge of approximately $486,000 on pooled bank trust preferred securities.
According to Vincent F. Palagiano, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, "We remain quite pleased by the operating fundamentals that produced a 35% increase in core earnings per share during the June 2010 quarter compared with the same quarter of 2009. While net interest margin fell during the most recent quarter, it reflected both our ongoing efforts to grow Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") balances, as well as our election to temporarily retain new deposits in liquid cash balances. IRAs, which are looked upon as a very stable source of funding, have grown 50% over the past 12 months, and the liquid cash balances are expected to be prudently deployed during the remainder of 2010, thus serving to benefit the net interest margin for the remainder of the year."
Mr. Palagiano continued, "Non-performing assets declined over 35% during the June 2010 quarter, and were less than one-half of one percent of total assets at June 30, 2010. The Company resolved its two largest problematic borrower relationships during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. In addition, delinquency levels appear, at present, to be stabilizing, providing further evidence that credit costs should remain manageable for the remainder of the year."
Dime's net interest margin decreased to 3.35% during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Asset growth during the most recent quarter was achieved at significantly lower average spreads than the 3.23% level experienced during the March 2010 quarter, as management retained a significant portion of the $132.4 million in deposit balances gathered during the first six months of 2010 in liquid cash balances, earning a negative interest rate spread. Overall, the net interest margin of 3.35% realized during the June 2010 quarter remained far more favorable than the levels experienced from 2005 through 2008, as the Bank continued to benefit from historically low short-term interest rates. The Bank expects to deploy a significant portion of the $164.7 million cash position held at June 30, 2010 in a manner that should help to benefit the net interest margin during the remainder of 2010.
Commercial Real Estate and Dime's Business Model
The term "commercial real estate" ("CRE") encompasses a variety of collateral types. Dime's loan portfolio is collateralized primarily by multifamily apartment buildings in New York City, widely considered the least risky type of CRE. Further, significant portions of these multifamily apartment buildings are subject to rent regulation. In New York City, where residential vacancy rates are low and there is limited available space to construct new buildings, rent regulation has had the affect of keeping regulated apartment rents below market rates. This factor enhances the intrinsic value of Dime's already low-risk collateral, and, management believes, is the primary reason for the Company's low level of non-performing assets and delinquent loans compared to the wider generic asset class designated as CRE.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income was $33.2 million during the June 2010 quarter, up $439,000 from the March 2010 quarter. An increase of $171.7 million in the average balance of interest earning assets more than offset a decline of 7 basis points in the net interest spread between the yield on the Bank's interest earning assets and the average cost of its interest bearing liabilities, accounting for the growth in net interest income.
Net interest income exceeded the June 2009 quarterly level by $6.9 million, driven by growth of 57 basis points in net interest margin from the quarter ended June 30, 2009 to the quarter ended June 30, 2010, reflecting declines of 71 basis points and 38 basis points in the average cost of deposits and borrowings, respectively, during the period.
Mr. Palagiano commented, "As we signaled in our previous release, despite continued reductions in funding costs, the growth in cash balances earning virtually no income served to reduce the net interest margin experienced during the second quarter of 2010. As we deploy these liquid funds during the remainder of 2010, we anticipate that the net interest margin, which remains at a historically favorable level, will improve."
PROVISION/ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES AND PROBLEM PORTFOLIO LOANS
Non-performing loans were $18.7 million at June 30, 2010 compared to $29.5 million at March 31, 2010 and $12.9 million at June 30, 2009. As a percentage of total loans, non-performing loans totaled 0.54% at June 30, 2010, compared to 0.85% at March 31, 2010 and 0.40% at June 30, 2009. Loans delinquent between 30 and 89 days declined during the most recent quarter to $11.1 million as of June 30, 2010 from $19.7 million at March 31, 2010. Loans delinquent between 30 and 89 days totaled $17.6 million at June 30, 2009.
Charge-offs recorded on problem loans totaled $5.0 million during the June 2010 quarter, compared to $769,000 in the March 2010 quarter and $528,000 in the June 2009 quarter. Approximately $4.0 million, or nearly 80% of the total charge-offs experienced during the June 2010 quarter, related to the resolution of five non-performing loans held by an individual borrower. Write-downs of principal or escrow balances on two additional problem borrower relationships accounted for $726,000 of the remaining $1.0 million of charge-offs experienced during the June 2010 quarter.
The Company recorded a $3.8 million provision to its allowance for loan losses during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, compared to $3.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2010. A portion of the $3.8 million provision recognized during the most recent quarter related to the charge-offs recognized on the resolution of problem loans during the quarter, while the majority reflected increases to losses deemed likely to be realized on both existing and newly added non-performing loans. Provisions totaled $2.3 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Since the Company had previously provided for a significant portion of the charge-offs experienced in the most recent quarter, charge-offs exceeded the $3.8 million provision during the June 2010 quarter.
Mr. Palagiano stated, "The sequential quarterly decline in non-performing loans reflected our continued commitment to both recognize likely potential losses on problem loans in a timely manner, and dispose of problematic loans prudently and expeditiously. While the increase in charge-offs resulted in an increase in loan credit costs from the March 2010 quarter to the June 2010 quarter, we are pleased to have resolved our two largest problem borrower relationships during the most recent quarter and to see our allowance for loan losses once again exceed 100% of our non-performing loans at June 30, 2010."
The timing and severity of charge-offs are unpredictable. At June 30, 2010, the allowance for loan losses was $23.4 million, or 125% of non-performing loans.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
OTTI, Gain on the Sale of Other Assets, and Gains on Trading Assets
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the pre-tax credit component of OTTI charges totaled $508,000, compared to $166,000 during the previous linked quarter. At June 30, 2010, six of Dime's eight trust preferred securities were deemed to meet the criteria for OTTI. The increase in the credit component of OTTI charges primarily reflected an increase in payment deferrals during the June 2010 quarter within the collateral pool underlying one of Dime's eight trust preferred collateralized debt obligation securities.
At June 30, 2010, Dime had failed to receive contractual principal or interest payments on two trust preferred securities with an aggregate recorded balance of $593,000 ($2.3 million excluding $1.7 million of unrealized losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss). Both securities are classified as non-performing assets. In addition at June 30, 2010, Dime did not receive a small portion of the interest due on two trust preferred securities having an aggregate recorded balance of $243,000 ($547,000 excluding the $304,000 total non-credit component of OTTI). The remaining four trust preferred securities, with a total cost basis of $10.2 million net of credit-related OTTI, are current on all contractual obligations.
During the March 2010 quarter, the Company transferred $1.4 million of mutual fund investments earmarked for the future settlement of certain benefits earned under the Company's Benefit Maintenance Plan ("BMP") from available for sale to trading, moving a pre-tax gain of $242,000 from other comprehensive income into reported earnings as a result of the transfer. The Company recognized losses of $66,000 on the trading securities during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, which were fully offset by a reduction in a component of BMP benefits expense.
During the June 2010 quarter, the Company elected to change some of the BMP earmarked mutual fund investments. As a result of this election, the Company recognized net gains of $263,000 on the sale of $2.1 million of BMP earmarked mutual funds. The sales proceeds were fully deployed into the purchase of the newly elected BMP earmarked mutual funds.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company sold mutual funds totaling $769,000, recognizing a pre-tax gain of $327,000 on the sale. This gain represented a recovery from the cost basis of these mutual funds subsequent to the recognition of OTTI charges during the March 2009 quarter.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Company sold an OREO property at its recorded balance. During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, Dime sold a property held as OREO recognizing a pre-tax loss of $92,000 on the sale. The Company recognized pre-tax write-downs of OREO totaling $157,000 and $200,000, respectively, during the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010. These write-downs, which are reflected in non-interest expense, were deemed warranted in order to reduce the recorded balance of OREO to their likely disposal value.
Mortgage Banking Income and Delinquent Serviced Loans
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Company sold two multifamily loans totaling $11.6 million to a third party financial institution without recourse, recognizing a pre-tax gain of $121,000 on the sale. Otherwise, loan sales were negligible during the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010 and were limited to one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. During the June 2009 quarter, Dime sold an 80% participation in approximately $124 million of multifamily loans from its portfolio to a third-party financial institution other than Fannie Mae. The loans were sold at par and without recourse, and Dime recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $635,000 ($0.01 per share after tax) on the sale, which was reflected in core earnings for the June 2009 quarter.
Mortgage banking income totaled $303,000 and $211,000 during the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively. The increase from the March 2010 quarter to the June 2010 quarter primarily reflected the aforementioned $121,000 gain recognized on the sale of the two multifamily loans during the June 2010 quarter. Mortgage banking income totaled $856,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2009, reflecting the aforementioned $635,000 gain as well as approximately $200,000 in servicing fee income.
From December 2002 through February 2009, Dime sold approximately $660 million of multifamily loans to Fannie Mae with a recourse obligation. This portfolio had an outstanding remaining principal balance of $404.5 million at June 30, 2010.
Within the Fannie Mae portfolio, loans delinquent 90 days or more were $618,000 at June 30, 2010 compared to $16.4 million at March 31, 2010. During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, Dime disposed of five non-performing loans within this portfolio totaling $14.2 million. At June 30, 2010, there were $2.9 million of loans delinquent between 30 and 89 days within the pool of loans serviced for Fannie Mae, compared to $4.6 million at March 31, 2010. At June 30, 2009, there were $1.8 million of loans delinquent 90 days or more, and $17.2 million of loans delinquent between 30 and 89 days within the pool of loans serviced for Fannie Mae.
Dime's first loss position for loans sold to Fannie Mae was $18.7 million as of June 30, 2010, against which a reserve of $3.0 million existed on that date. This reserve approximated 0.74% of the remaining principal balance of loans in the Fannie Mae pool as of June 30, 2010, and probable losses related to the entire remaining pool of loans sold with recourse to Fannie Mae are reflected in the $3.0 million reserve balance. Additions to the reserve for the first loss position are charged against mortgage banking (non-interest) income.
Other Components of Non-Interest Income
Other components of non-interest income totaled $2.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $550,000 from $1.9 million during the March 2010 quarter and up $467,000 from the June 2009 quarter. The increases from both the March 2010 and June 2009 quarters resulted from an increase of $409,000 in rental income on leased properties, as the Company modified the income recognition on these leased properties from strictly cash basis to a straight line accrual methodology.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Non-interest expense was $15.8 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, a slight increase from the March 2010 quarter. During the June 2010 quarter, the stock benefit plan portion of compensation and benefits expense increased $125,000 as a result of new stock awards granted in April 2010. Occupancy and equipment increased $390,000 primarily as a result of the full transition of operating lease rental expense from a strictly cash basis to a straight line accrual methodology. Offsetting this increase was a one-time adjustment during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, of approximately $460,000 to the manner of expense recognition on a component of the Company's BMP.
Compared to the June 2009 quarter, non-interest expense increased $466,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, due primarily to increases of $904,000 in compensation and benefits, $766,000 in occupancy and equipment expense and $567,000 in other expenses, that were partially offset by a $1.8 million special FDIC insurance assessment recognized during the June 2009 quarter. The increase in compensation and benefits expense reflected ongoing staff salary increases, new stock plan awards made in April 2010 and an adjustment of approximately $350,000 related to revised actuarial valuations on the defined benefit costs associated with both the Company's Employee Retirement Plan and BMP. The growth in occupancy and equipment expense was primarily attributable to increased rental expense on leased branches, reflecting both the aforementioned transition of expense recognition as well as two additional lease agreements that commenced in 2010. The growth in other expenses primarily reflected higher marketing costs of $412,000.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE
The Company's customary consolidated effective tax rate approximates 37%, and approximated such during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recognized gains totaling $569,000 on both the sale of mutual funds and the transfer of mutual funds into trading. From a tax perspective, since: (i) these events triggered the reversal of deferred tax assets previously recognized when the Company recorded OTTI charges in March 2009; and (ii) the deferred tax assets on the OTTI charges were established at a long-term rate approximating 45% (significantly in excess of the current consolidated 37% tax rate), their reversal created a higher effective tax rate of 41.3% during the March 2010 quarter. The Company recorded an adjustment of $291,000 to income taxes during the June 2010 quarter, that effectively reduced the deferred tax benefit associated with the OTTI charges on the mutual fund investments from the 45% long-term rate to the current 37% consolidated income tax rate. The impact of the OTTI charges on the pooled trust preferred securities reduced the book income tax rate below the customary consolidated rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 to 35%.
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets increased $34.4 million, to $4.15 billion, from March 31, 2010 to June 30, 2010. The increase in assets was experienced primarily in cash and due from banks, as management elected to maintain additional liquidity that it expects to utilize prudently during the remainder of 2010.
Total liabilities increased by $28.2 million during the most recent quarter, as a result of the addition of $127.2 million in deposits. The growth in deposits was achieved in both money market accounts and certificates of deposit ("CDs"). Mortgagor escrow balances decreased $21.5 million during the most recent quarter as a result of semi-annual payments made by Dime on the behalf of borrowers during the 2nd and 4th quarters of each year. In May 2010, the Company also repaid its maturing $25.0 million subordinated note originally issued in 2000. This note carried a contractual coupon of 9.25%. The Company also repaid $44.2 million of maturing FHLBNY advances with a weighted average cost of 3.69%, electing not to replace them during the June 2010 quarter as a result of the deposit inflows experienced.
Real Estate Lending and Loan Amortization
Real estate loan originations, which were $146.4 million during the March 2010 quarter, totaled $113.5 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 and $111.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The average rate on real estate loan originations during the June 2010 quarter was 5.52%, compared to 5.60% during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and 6.08% during the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Real estate loan amortization approximated 13% of the real estate loan portfolio on an annualized basis during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, up from 9% during each of the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009. The increase in the amortization rate reflected growth in refinancing activity on loans approaching their contractual repricing date.
Deposits
Deposits increased $127.2 million from March 31, 2010 to June 30, 2010. Core deposits (i.e., non-CDs) grew $68.9 million during this period fueled by an additional $56.8 million of money market balances. CDs increased $58.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010, due primarily to the success of a promotional deposit gathering program on 15-month IRA CDs. As a result of a multi-year effort, IRA deposits increased from $106.5 million, or 5.30% of total deposits, as of December 31, 2006, to $262.0 million, or 10.7% of total deposits, at June 30, 2010.
During the June 2010 quarter, the rates required by depositors on medium-term CDs as well as those available on medium term advances from the FHLBNY remained well below the yields available on the Bank's primary lending products, providing an opportunity for the Bank to continue to extend the average duration of its liabilities while maintaining its net interest margin at a favorable level. Dime has extended the average duration of CDs from approximately 8.6 months at June 30, 2009 to approximately 15.6 months at June 30, 2010. Depending upon continued favorable market conditions, the mix of retail versus wholesale funding will be managed opportunistically. Marketing efforts during the first six months of 2010 continued to support sales of checking accounts and medium-term CDs. While these promotional activities are expected to continue, the significant liquidity level accumulated at June 30, 2010 should help management maintain pricing discipline on deposits during the remainder of 2010.
During the most recent quarter, Dime opened its 24th retail banking office, in Cedarhurst, New York. Despite adding the new branch, average deposits per branch were $101.7 million at June 30, 2010, above the $100.5 million level at March 31, 2010, as well as the $99.7 million level at June 30, 2009. Core deposits comprised 54% of total deposits at June 30, 2010, March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009. The loan-to-deposit ratio was 142% at June 30, 2010, unchanged from June 30, 2009 and down from 151% at March 31, 2010. Dime's next de novo branch will be located in Garden City Park, New York, and is anticipated to open in September 2010.
Stockholders' Equity
Stockholders' equity at June 30, 2010 totaled $314.7 million, or 7.59% of total assets, compared to $308.5 million, or 7.50% of total assets, at March 31, 2010. After dividends, the Company's tangible stockholders' equity increased to $264.1 million at June 30, 2010, from $257.6 million at March 31, 2010. The quarterly cash dividend declared on July 22, 2010 represented a payout ratio of 47% of second quarter 2010 core earnings. At June 30, 2010, the consolidated tangible stockholders' equity ratio was 6.46% of tangible assets and tangible book value per share was $7.65.
The Company did not participate in the TARP program and thus has no TARP capital.
There were no stock repurchases during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had an additional 1,124,549 shares remaining eligible for repurchase under its twelfth stock repurchase program, approved in June 2007.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the reported returns on average stockholders' equity and average tangible equity were 12.8% and 15.3%, respectively. The core returns on average stockholders' equity and average tangible equity were 13.3% and 15.9%, respectively. Core returns primarily exclude OTTI charges, gains on the sale of securities, write-downs of OREO, other significant non-recurring transactions and related income tax effects. Finally, the core cash return on average tangible stockholders' equity (the fundamental measure of new internally generated capital) was 17.1%.
OUTLOOK
The average cost of deposits decreased to 1.33% during the June 2010 quarter from 1.37% during the March 2010 quarter, as Dime continued to take advantage of historically low short-term interest rates to maintain pricing discipline on its deposits. Deposit funding costs should remain at their historically low level for the remainder of 2010.
Amortization rates (including prepayments and loan refinancing activity), which approximated 13% on an annualized basis during the most recent quarter, are expected to remain in the 10% to 15% range during the third quarter of 2010.
Dime has no additional FDIC special assessments forecasted for the third quarter of 2010.
At June 30, 2010, the loan commitment pipeline was approximately $80.8 million, comprised primarily of multifamily residential properties, with an approximate weighted average rate of 5.45%.
Operating expenses for the September 2010 quarter are expected to approximate $15.2 million, assuming no further FDIC special assessments or increases in deposit insurance premiums.
Loan credit costs were $3.8 million during the June 2010 quarter, $3.4 million during the March 2010 quarter, $4.0 million during the December 2009 quarter and $2.3 million during the September 2009 quarter. Management assumes that credit costs will remain range bound for the near term, as the Bank continues its practice of timely loss recognition and disposal of problematic loans in both a judicious and expeditious manner.

Unaudited Core Earnings and Core Cash Earnings Reconciliations
(Dollars In thousands except per share amounts)
Core earnings and related data are "Non-GAAP Disclosures." These
disclosures present information which management considers useful to the
readers of this report since they present a measure of the results of the
Company's ongoing operations during the period (exclusive of gains or
losses on sales of securities and other real estate owned and other
material non-recurring items).
Core cash earnings and related data are also "Non-GAAP Disclosures." These
disclosures present information which management considers useful to the
readers of this report since they present a measure of the tangible equity
generated from operations during each period presented. Tangible
stockholders' equity is derived from stockholders' equity, with various
adjustment items that are based upon standards of the Company's primary
regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision. Tangible stockholders' equity
generation is a significant financial measure since banks are subject to
regulatory requirements involving the maintenance of minimum tangible
capital levels. A reconciliation between GAAP stockholders' equity (GAAP
capital) and tangible stockholders' equity (regulatory capital) can be
found in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
The following tables present a reconciliation of GAAP net income and both
core earnings and core cash earnings, as well as financial performance
ratios determined based upon core earnings and core cash earnings, for each
of the periods presented:

(1) In reference to the discussion on page 2 of this release, while the
loans within both of these categories are often considered "commercial
real estate" in nature, they are classified separately in the statement
above to provide further emphasis upon the discrete composition of
their underlying real estate collateral.
(2) Total non-performing loans include loans that have been modified in a
manner that would meet the criteria for a TDR should the loans return
to accrual status. These loans, which are excluded from the TDR amount
shown above, totaled $2.6 million and $15.7 million at June 30, 2010
and March 31, 2010, respectively. There were no such loans at
June 30, 2009.
(3) Amount was fully comprised of multifamily residential loans at
June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010.
