Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. Reports Third Quarter 2024 Results
Strong Operating Results Underscored By Increased Net Interest Margin
Financial Highlights
●The net interest margin for the third quarter of 2024 was 3.62%, an increase of 18 basis points compared to 3.44% for the second quarter of 2024.
●Total loans at September 30, 2024 were $5.9 billion, an increase of $58.2 million from June 30, 2024 and $542.6 million from September 30, 2023.
●Total deposits at September 30, 2024 were $6.3 billion, an increase of $100.2 million from June 30, 2024 and $748.3 million from September 30, 2023.
●Diluted earnings per share of $1.08 for the third quarter of 2024, compared to $1.50 for the second quarter of 2024. Third quarter earnings included $12.6 million of pre-tax expenses related to a $10 million regulatory reserve, our Modern Banking in Motion digital transformation initiative, the Global Payments Group (“GPG”) wind down, and other regulatory remediation costs, all of which impacted diluted earnings per share by $0.78.
●Asset quality continues to be stable. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.53% at September 30, 2024, unchanged from the prior linked quarter.
●Liquidity remains strong. At September 30, 2024, cash on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and available secured funding capacity totaled $3.1 billion, which represented 212% of uninsured deposits.
●The Company and Bank are “well capitalized” under applicable regulatory guidelines, with total risk-based capital ratios of 13.2% and 12.9%, respectively, at September 30, 2024, well above regulatory minimums.
NEW YORK, October 17, 2024 ‒ Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. (the “Company”) (NYSE: MCB), the holding company for Metropolitan Commercial Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income of $12.3 million, or $1.08 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $16.8 million, or $1.50 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2024, and $22.1 million, or $1.97 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2023.

Mark DeFazio, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented,
“The commercial bank continues to report strong underlying business fundamentals and financial performance. Our net interest income increased 6% quarter over quarter and 12% year to date supported by continued strength and growth in our net interest margin. We continue to deliver on deposit growth despite the challenging operating environment. Importantly, our year to date results highlight our ability to manage in a dynamic environment and we expect our financial results to benefit from the recent reduction in the Fed Funds target rate and any additional monetary policy easing in the future.
“We remain laser focused on the exit from the GPG vertical and continue to make investments in the buildout of our risk management framework and personnel. We have reserved $10 million to resolve an investigation with a state agency connected to a fintech client we last worked with in 2020. With matters such as this behind us, as well as a full exit from GPG, we believe that the Bank is well positioned to deliver financial outperformance relative to our peers.”
Balance Sheet
Total cash and cash equivalents were $318.5 million at September 30, 2024, an increase of $73.8 million, or 30.2%, from June 30, 2024 and an increase of $141.1 million, or 79.6%, from September 30, 2023. The increase from June 30, 2024, primarily reflects a $100.2 million increase in deposits. The increase from September 30, 2023, primarily reflects a $748.3 million increase in deposits, partially offset by an increase in the loan book of $542.6 million and a $105.1 million decrease in wholesale funding.
Total loans, net of deferred fees and unamortized costs, were $5.9 billion at September 30, 2024, an increase of $58.2 million, or 1.0%, from June 30, 2024, and an increase of $542.6 million, or 10.1%, from September 30, 2023. Loan production was $460.6 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $290.8 million for the prior linked quarter and $333.5 million for the prior year period. The increase in total loans from June 30, 2024 was due primarily to an increase of $116.7 million in commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans (including owner-occupied), partially offset by a decrease of $51.0 million of multi-family loans. The increase in total loans from September 30, 2023 was due primarily to an increase of $460.0 million in CRE loans (including owner-occupied) and $92.9 million in commercial and industrial loans.
Total deposits were $6.3 billion at September 30, 2024, an increase of $100.2 million, or 1.6%, from June 30, 2024, and an increase of $748.3 million, or 13.6%, from September 30, 2023. The increase from June 30, 2024 was due primarily to an increase of $133.4 million in property manager deposits and $105.6 million in retail deposits, partially offset by a $122.0 million decrease in GPG deposits. The increase in deposits from September 30, 2023, was due to broad based increases across most of the Bank’s various deposit verticals.
At September 30, 2024, cash on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and available secured funding capacity totaled $3.1 billion. The Company and the Bank each met all the requirements to be considered “well capitalized” under applicable regulatory guidelines. Total non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans were 353.3% of total risk-based capital at September 30, 2024, compared to 358.4% and 374.8% at June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the third quarter of 2024 was $65.2 million compared to $61.5 million for the prior linked quarter and $53.6 million for the prior year period. The $3.7 million increase from the prior linked quarter was due primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans and an increase in the yield on loans, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of overnight deposits and a modest increase in the cost of funds. The $11.7 million increase from the prior year period was due primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans, an increase in loan yields, and a decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of deposits and an increase in the cost of funds.
Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2024 was 3.62% compared to 3.44% and 3.27% for the prior linked quarter and prior year period, respectively. The 18 basis point increase from the prior linked quarter was driven largely by an increase in the average balance of loans and an increase in loan yields in combination with elevated prepayment penalties and deferred fee recognition as a result of an increased level of loan payoffs, partially offset by an increase in the cost of funds. The 35 basis point increase from the prior year period was due primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans, an increase in loan yields, and a decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of deposits and an increase in the cost of funds.
The total cost of funds for the third quarter of 2024 was 339 basis points compared to 334 basis points and 303 basis points for the prior linked quarter and prior year period, respectively. The increase from the prior linked quarter reflects the continued effects of high short-term interest rates and the intense competition for deposits, as well as the runoff of lower cost GPG deposits replaced with market rate deposits. The increase from the prior year period reflects the continued effects of high short-term interest rates, the intense competition for deposits, and a shift from non-interest bearing deposits to interest bearing funding primarily related to the exit from the crypto-related deposit vertical during 2023.
3
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income was $6.3 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $146,000 from the prior linked quarter and a decrease of $228,000 from the prior year period. The increase from the prior linked quarter was driven primarily by an increase in wire and letter of credit fees, partially offset by the continuing decline in GPG revenue as that business is wound down. The decrease from the prior year period was driven primarily by lower GPG revenue, partially offset by an increase in service charges on deposit accounts.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense was $51.3 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $9.0 million from the prior linked quarter and an increase of $20.3 million from the prior year period. The $9.0 million increase from the prior linked quarter was due primarily to the pre-tax $10 million regulatory reserve and a $1.4 million increase in compensation and benefits, partially offset by a $2.2 million decline in professional fees. The $20.3 million increase from the prior year period was due primarily to the pre-tax $10 million regulatory reserve, $2.7 million increase in compensation and benefits related to the increase in number of employees, and $1.8 million increase in technology costs related to the digital transformation initiative.
Income Tax Expense
The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2024 was 30.2% compared to 29.7% for the prior linked quarter and 22.2% for the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the prior year period reflects a discrete tax item related to the exercise of stock options in the third quarter of 2023 and the reversal of the regulatory settlement reserve in that period.
Asset Quality
Credit quality remains stable. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.53% at September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.58% at September 30, 2023.
The allowance for credit losses was $62.5 million at September 30, 2024, an increase of $2.5 million from June 30, 2024, which reflects loan growth production and a modest increase in the duration of the loan book.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), this earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures.

| C&I Healthcare Composition | September 30, 2024<br>Diversified CRE and C&I Healthcare Portfolio<br>• Active in Healthcare lending since 2002.<br>• No realized losses since 2002. No deferrals during the pandemic.<br>• CRE – Skilled Nursing Facilities (“SNF”) – average LTV of 70%.<br>• Highly selective regarding the quality of Skilled Nursing Operators that we<br>finance.<br>• Borrowers are very experienced operators that typically have in excess of<br>1,000 beds under management and strong cash flows. Many further<br>supported by vertically integrated related businesses.<br>• Loans are made primarily in “certificate of need” states which limits the<br>supply of beds and supports stable occupancy rates.<br>• Stabilized SNF – 57% of CRE SNF portfolio. Stabilized facilities provide cash<br>flows adequate to support debt service and collateral value. Borrowers’<br>primary motive for acquisition of a stabilized property is for synergies with<br>existing portfolio of SNFs. Average debt service coverage ratio is 2.11x.<br>• Transitional Non-stabilized SNF – are typically value-add opportunities that<br>may have underlying issues that can be remediated. By implementing<br>operational and management changes, enhancing the quality of care,<br>improving the payor mix, and optimizing efficiency, experienced operators<br>can increase the facility's profitability and value. Operators that have a<br>strong market share in the region can negotiate higher reimbursement<br>rates by working with payers, such as Medicare and Medicaid, to negotiate<br>higher reimbursement rates for the services provided by the SNF.<br>68%<br>14%<br>10%<br>4% 68% SNF<br>14% Ambulatory Health Care<br>Services<br>10% Medical Labs<br>4% Misc.
