Blue Foundry Bancorp Reports Second Quarter 2021Results

RUTHERFORD, NJ, July 23, 2021 – Blue Foundry Bancorp (NASDAQ:BLFY) (the “Company”), the holding company for Blue Foundry Bank (the “Bank”), today reported a net loss of $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $16.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and a net loss of $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $28.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The improvement in net loss for those comparative periods was largely driven by a decrease in non-interest expenses, in particular the reclassification of certain properties into held-for-sale in the first quarter of 2020 and goodwill impairment recorded in the second quarter of 2020.

Total assets increased $634.3 million, or 32.65%, to $2.58 billion at June 30, 2021 from $1.94 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to cash received in connection with the previously announced plan to convert to the stock holding company form of organization.

On July 15, 2021, the Company announced that it had closed its stock offering in connection with the completion of the conversion of Blue Foundry, MHC into the stock holding company form of organization. The Company sold 27,772,500 shares of common stock at a price of $10.00 per share in its subscription offering. The Company also contributed 750,000 shares of common stock and $1.5 million in cash to the Blue Foundry Charitable Foundation.

James Nesci, President and Chief Executive Officer commented: “We are delighted to have successfully converted from a mutual holding company to a stock holding company on July 15, 2021. Over the recent past, we have made strategic investments in the infrastructure of Blue Foundry. As a public company, we intend to leverage our investments and grow our bank. The new capital we have received will allow us to fund new loans, refine existing products and services, expand our retail banking franchise, and continue to invest in the backbone of this organization, our people. Blue Foundry has a storied history serving the communities where we operate, and we are very eager for our future as a public institution.”

Balance Sheet Summary:

Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $608.7 million to $925.1 million at June 30, 2021 from $316.4 million at December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to cash received in connection with the conversion and related stock offering.

Gross Loans. Gross loans held for investment decreased $25.3 million, or 1.98%, to $1.25 billion at June 30, 2021 from $1.28 billion at December 31, 2020. The most significant drivers were net increases in Multifamily loans and Commercial & Industrial (PPP) loans originations exceeded by payoffs and amortization in Residential One-to-Four Family loans. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 there were $91.3 million in originations of Multifamily loans partially offset by $40.3 million of payoffs and amortization, and $39.7 million of originations in Commercial & Industrial (PPP loans) partially offset by $28.2 million in payoffs and amortization. The decrease in One-to-Four Family loans was primarily driven by $12.2 million in originations exceeded by $97.6 million in payoffs and amortization.

Loans receivable, net $ 1,241,176 $ 1,267,114

Securities Available-For-Sale. Securities available-for-sale increased $49.9 million, or 20.4%, to $294.5 million at June 30, 2021 from $244.6 million at December 31, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, purchases of agency bonds and residential mortgage-backed securities were executed as interest rates rose. No securities were sold or liquidated during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Total Deposits. Total deposits totaled $2.01 billion at June 30, 2021. Excluding deposits received in connection with the conversion and related stock offering, deposits increased $21.8 million, or 1.6%. Checking and savings accounts increased $100.2 million, or 15.7%, to $738.9 million at June 30, 2021 from $638.8 million at December 31, 2020. This was offset by time deposit decreases of $78.4 million, or 10.9%, to $639.0 million at June 30, 2021 from $717.4 million at December 31, 2020. These changes resulted in the ratio of time deposits to total deposits decreasing from 52.9% at December 31, 2020 to 46.4% at June 30, 2021, and a blended deposit cost of funds decline to 0.63% at June 30, 2021 from 0.92% at December 31, 2020.

Borrowings. The Company had $315.4 million of borrowings at June 30, 2021, compared to $329.4 million of borrowings at December 31, 2020. Our borrowings consisted solely of Federal Home Loan Bank of New York advances. Of that total, $109.0 million of the borrowings are associated with longer-dated swap agreements.

Total Equity. Shareholders’ total equity decreased by $0.7 million, or 0.33%, to $204.9 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $205.6 million at December 31, 2020. The decrease was due primarily to a net loss of $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, offset by an increase of $1.1 million in accumulated other comprehensive income. The Bank’s capital ratios remain above the FDIC’s “well capitalized” standards.

Results of Operations:

Net Interest Income and Margin. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 net interest income was $9.9 million, flat compared to the same period in 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 net interest income was $19.5 million, a decrease of $0.6 million compared to $20.1 million for same period in 2020. Interest income declined $2.1 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, driven by lower loan volume and to a lesser extent, the lower interest rate environment. This decline was partially offset with an improvement in interest expense of $2.0 million and $4.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, driven by the maturity of higher cost time deposits and a lower cost of funds on non-maturity deposits.

Our net interest margin decreased by 9 basis points to 1.99% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, from 2.08% for the trailing quarter. The yield on interest earning assets and net interest margin was negatively impacted by the minimal yields earned on the cash received in connection with the conversion and related stock offering. The weighted average yield on interest-earning assets decreased 25 basis points to 2.78% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, from 3.03% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, while the weighted average cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 15 basis points to 0.71% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared to 0.86% for the trailing quarter. Our cost of total average deposits was 0.63% for the second quarter 2021 as compared to 1.27% for the first quarter 2021.

Net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2021 decreased by 12 basis points from 2.11% in the second quarter of 2020. The yield on average interest earning assets decreased by 59 basis points from the second quarter of 2020 mostly due to higher cash balances with minimal yield. The yield on average loans decreased by 12 basis points to 3.78% for the second quarter 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020 largely due to the lower interest rate environment. The overall cost of average interest bearing liabilities decreased 50 basis points to 0.94% for the second quarter 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020 due to repricing of higher cost time deposits and a lower cost of funds on non-maturity deposits.

Net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased by 15 basis points from 2.19% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The yield on average interest earning assets decreased by 61 basis points mostly due to higher cash balances with minimal yield. The yield on average loans decreased by 16 basis points and the overall cost of average interest bearing liabilities decreased 51 basis points.

Non-interest Income. Non-interest income of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $0.2 million from $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Non-interest income of $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $1.4 million from a non-interest loss of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense decreased $15.2 million to $11.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $27.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and decreased $26.6 million to $24.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $50.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The primary drivers of these decreases were the $12.8 million loss on assets held for sale recognized in the first quarter of 2020 and the goodwill impairment of $15.5 million recognized in the second quarter of 2020.

Asset Quality. The allowance for loan losses and letters of credit and commitments was $16.2 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $17.3 million at June 30, 2020, of which $0.61 million and $0, respectively, related to the allowance for letters of credit and commitments. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.24% at June 30, 2021 compared to 1.22% at June 30, 2020, while the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 125% at June 30, 2021 compared to 347% at June 30, 2020. The Company recorded a recovery of provision for loan losses of $0.6 million and $1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared with provisions of $1.3 million and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.
