Roberto. Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of PCSB Financial Corporation said, “I am pleased to report continued growth in our core business as we begin our third fiscal year as a public company. We continue to build off the strong results achieved in fiscal 2019 with solid results in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 as loans grew an additional $70.1 million or 6.4%, resulting in a 28.5% increase over the year ago period. Profitability continues to improve as net income of $2.8 million increased $500,000 or 21.5% over the year ago period. Asset quality remains strong as the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets of 0.26% decreased from 0.43% at September 30, 2018. As we move forward, we remain focused on enhancing shareholder value through continued growth in earnings together with capital management techniques such as share repurchases and dividends.”Income Statement SummaryNet interest income was $12.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $1.2 million, or 11.5%, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019, and an increase of $1.5 million, or 14.7%, compared to quarter ended September 30, 2018. These increases in net interest income are primarily the result of increases in average net interest earning assets, as the Company has accomplished significant growth in average loans receivable compared to both the prior quarter and the same quarter last year, as well as increases in net interest margin.The net interest margin was 3.03% for the current quarter, an increase of nine basis points compared to 2.94% in both the prior quarter and prior year quarter. Included in current quarter net interest income is $477,000 of prepayment income earned on loans receivable and investment securities. Excluding this nonrecurring prepayment income, net interest margin for the quarter would have been 2.91%, a decrease of three basis points from both the prior quarter and the prior year quarter. Despite rising funding costs due to higher short-term interest rates along with competitive loan and deposit pricing, continued asset growth and a shift in the asset mix has mitigated the decrease in the net interest margin.The yield on interest-earning assets for the current quarter was 4.04%, a 23 basis point increase from the prior quarter and a 50 basis point increase from the prior year quarter. Excluding the effects of prepayment income, the yield on interest-earning assets was 3.92% for the current quarter.The cost of interest-bearing deposits was 1.20% for the current quarter, an increase of eight basis points from 1.12% for the prior quarter and an increase of 41 basis points from 0.79% for the prior year quarter. The Company has experienced a shift in the deposit mix as customers in lower costing saving products moved to higher rate money market and time deposits. Additionally, as the Company has increasingly utilized borrowings over the past year to fund loan growth, the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 1.32% for the current quarter, an increase of 16 basis points from 1.16% for the prior quarter and an increase of 51 basis points from 0.81% for the prior year quarter.The provision for loan losses was $335,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $737,000 in the prior quarter and $58,000 for the same period in 2018. Charge-offs, net of recoveries, were $6,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $18,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and $3,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Loans classified as substandard or doubtful increased $2.8 million, or 33.1%, to $11.3 million at September 30, 2019 from $8.5 million at June 30, 2019 and decreased $1.7 million, or 13.7%, from $13.0 million at September 30, 2018. Non-performing loans as a percent of total loans receivable was 0.29% as of September 30, 2019, an increase from 0.25% as of June 30, 2019 and a decrease from 0.62% as of September 30, 2018.Noninterest income increased $124,000 to $765,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to increases of $99,000 in swap income and $23,000 in gains on sale of foreclosed real estate. Noninterest income decreased $197,000 from the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to a $191,000 decrease in swap income.Noninterest expense increased $779,000 to $8.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 and increased $79,000 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The $779,000 increase from the prior year period was caused primarily by $829,000 of stock-based compensation expense recorded in the current quarter, compared to no such expense in the prior year period. The Company applied small bank assessment credits of $98,000 which fully offset the Company’s FDIC assessment for the current quarter. The remaining credits available are $239,000.The effective income tax rate was 22.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 26.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 23.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2018.Balance Sheet SummaryTotal assets increased $21.0 million to $1.66 billion at September 30, 2019 from $1.64 billion at June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $70.1 million in net loans receivable, partially offset by decreases of $38.8 million in total investment securities and $22.2 million in cash and cash equivalents. The $70.1 million increase in loans was the result of $64.9 million of originations and $44.1 million of loan purchases, partially offset by $38.9 million of net amortization and repayments. Commercial mortgages increased $74.9 million or 11.5%, and construction loans increased $5.6 million, or 42.3%, while commercial loans decreased $7.7 million or 5.8%.Total liabilities increased $20.8 million to $1.38 billion at September 30, 2019 from $1.36 billion at June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily due to a $14.6 million increase in other liabilities, as a result of recording a $12.0 million lease liability (a related lease asset was also recorded as part of bank premises and equipment) associated with the adoption of new lease accounting standards, and a net increase of $6.3 million in deposits and escrow balances.Total shareholders’ equity increased $215,000 to $281.5 million at September 30, 2019 from $281.3 million at June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily due to net income of $2.8 million, as well as $1.3 million of stock-based compensation and reduction in unearned ESOP shares for plan shares earned during the period, partially offset by the repurchase of $3.5 million (179,800 shares) of common stock and $659,000 of cash dividends declared and paid. As of September 30, 2019, there were 710,221 shares available to be repurchased under the current stock repurchase plan.At September 30, 2019, the Company’s book value per share and tangible book value per share were $15.97 and $15.61, respectively, compared to $15.80 and $15.44, respectively, at June 30, 2019.
