Hudson City Bancorp, Inc. Reports Quarterly Earnings of $84.2 Million
DECLARED QUARTERLY CASH DIVIDEND OF $0.08 PER SHARE
PARAMUS, N.J., Oct. 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Hudson City Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: HCBK), the holding company for Hudson City Savings Bank, reported net income of $84.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 as compared to net income of $124.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. Diluted earnings per share amounted to $0.17 during the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $0.25 for the third quarter of 2010. The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.08 per share payable on November 30, 2011 to shareholders of record on November 4, 2011.
Ronald E. Hermance, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented, "Our net income was $84.2 million for the third quarter in what continues to be a difficult environment facing portfolio lenders. With mortgage rates hitting all-time lows and reinvestment rates for mortgage securities below 3.0%, we believe balance sheet growth does not make sense in this environment. We anticipate continuing to restrain our balance sheet growth while the Federal Reserve and U.S. Treasury department continue their on-going attempts to spur economic growth by, among other things, keeping interest rates at historical lows. This quarter, the rate on ten year treasury notes fell below 2% - a rate even lower than during the Great Depression. As a result of the decrease in rates during the quarter, we had $2.0 billion of investment securities called during the third quarter, including $1.2 billion during the month of September. This resulted in a large cash balance at September 30, 2011 which will be redeployed during the fourth quarter."
Mr. Hermance further commented, "We continue to be pleased with our credit metrics. Net charge-offs are at their lowest level since the third quarter of 2009 and early stage delinquencies have improved from the levels at December 31, 2010. Our ratio of net charge-offs to average loans was 0.25% during the 2011 third quarter compared to 0.33% for the 2010 third quarter. The weak economy and housing markets will continue to be a challenge, but we believe that our non-performing assets are at manageable levels."
Mr. Hermance continued, "There is no question that financial companies are facing difficult times and the shares of many of these companies are trading at or close to their all-time lows. We believe that uncertainty surrounding new and anticipated regulations, the BASEL III capital and liquidity requirements, the continued weak economic conditions and extraordinarily low market interest rates are significant factors in investor sentiment regarding the financial sector. At Hudson City, we are focused on our core business. With a leverage capital ratio of 8.77%, strong liquidity and high quality assets, we believe that our balance sheet is able to withstand this economic cycle as it has withstood many cycles over the past 143 years. When people begin to enter the housing market again, we believe that they will look for a bank that provides the greatest value and a high level of service. We look forward to exceeding their expectations and, at the same time, growing our business once again. As always, we appreciate the loyalty shown by our customers and shareholders."
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Bank reported a net loss of $375.5 million as compared to net income of $416.0 million for the same period in 2010. Net loss per share was $0.76 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.84 for the same period in 2010. During the first quarter of 2011, the Bank completed a restructuring of its balance sheet (the "Restructuring Transaction") which resulted in the extinguishment of $12.5 billion of structured putable borrowings with an average cost of 3.56%. The extinguishment of the borrowings was funded by the sale of $8.66 billion of securities with an average yield of 3.20% and $5.00 billion of new short-term fixed-maturity borrowings with an average cost of 0.66%. The Restructuring Transaction reduced after-tax earnings by $649.3 million resulting in a first quarter net loss of $555.7 million. Operating earnings and diluted operating earnings per share were $273.9 million and $0.55, respectively for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $416.0 million and $0.84, respectively for the same period in 2010. Please see page 14 of this press release for a reconciliation of operating earnings to the Company's earnings reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Statement of Financial Condition Summary
Total assets decreased $10.32 billion, or 16.9%, to $50.85 billion at September 30, 2011 from $61.17 billion at December 31, 2010. The decrease in total assets reflected a $9.60 billion decrease in total mortgage-backed securities, a $903.8 million decrease in net loans and a $2.38 billion decrease in total investment securities. These decreases were partially offset by a $2.59 billion increase in total cash and cash equivalents.
The increase in cash and cash equivalents included a $2.61 billion increase in Federal funds sold and other overnight deposits. This increase was due primarily to proceeds from the calls of investment securities which totaled $2.00 billion for the third quarter of 2011, including $1.20 billion of which were received in the month of September. As a result of these calls of investment securities, our investment securities portfolio decreased to $1.65 billion at September 30, 2011.
Our net loans decreased $903.8 million during the first nine months of 2011 to $29.87 billion. The decrease in loans primarily reflects the elevated levels of loan repayments during the first nine months of 2011 as a result of continued low market interest rates. Historically our focus has been on loan portfolio growth through the origination of one- to four-family first mortgage loans in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Connecticut and, to a lesser extent, the purchases of mortgage loans. For the first nine months of 2011, we originated $3.75 billion and purchased $338.6 million of loans, compared to originations of $4.28 billion and purchases of $580.1 million for the first nine months of 2010. The originations and purchases of loans were offset by principal repayments of $4.85 billion for the first nine months of 2011, as compared to $4.74 billion for the first nine months of 2010.
Loan originations declined slightly for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. In addition, elevated levels of refinancing activity caused by low market interest rates have caused increased levels of repayments to continue during the first nine months of 2011. Our loan purchase activity has also declined as sellers from whom we have historically purchased loans are either retaining these loans in their own portfolios or selling them to the government-sponsored entities ("GSEs"). The GSEs have been actively purchasing loans as part of their efforts to keep mortgage rates low to support the housing market during the recent economic recession. We expect that the amount of loan purchases by the Bank will continue to be at reduced levels for the near-term.
Total mortgage-backed securities decreased $9.60 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $14.43 billion. The decrease was due primarily to the sale of $8.96 billion of securities, substantially all of which were sold as part of the Restructuring Transaction. The decrease in mortgage-backed securities also reflected repayments of $3.57 billion which were offset by purchases of $3.05 billion of mortgage-backed securities issued by GSEs.
Total liabilities decreased $9.79 billion, or 17.6%, to $45.87 billion at September 30, 2011 from $55.66 billion at December 31, 2010. The decrease in total liabilities reflected a $9.45 billion decrease in borrowed funds partially offset by a $248.3 million increase in total deposits.
The decrease in borrowed funds was primarily a result of the Restructuring Transaction. As part of the Restructuring Transaction, we paid off $12.5 billion of structured putable borrowings and re-borrowed $5.0 billion of new short-term fixed-maturity borrowings. The extinguishment of structured putable borrowings was a necessary step in our efforts to reduce our interest rate risk and eliminate some of the liquidity uncertainties of borrowings that are putable at the discretion of the lender. Borrowings amounted to $20.23 billion at September 30, 2011 as compared to $29.68 billion at December 31, 2010.
Total shareholders' equity decreased $530.8 million to $4.98 billion at September 30, 2011 from $5.51 billion at December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to the net loss of $375.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease was also due to cash dividends paid to common shareholders of $153.1 million and a $22.3 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income. At September 30, 2011, our shareholders' equity to asset ratio was 9.79% and our book value per share was $9.74.
The accumulated other comprehensive income of $63.1 million at September 30, 2011 included a $93.3 million after-tax net unrealized gain on securities available for sale ($157.7 million pre-tax) and a $30.2 million after-tax accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the funded status of our employee benefit plans. The accumulated other comprehensive income of $85.4 million at December 31, 2010 included a $117.3 million after-tax net unrealized gain on securities available for sale ($198.3 million pre-tax), partially offset by a $31.9 million after-tax accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the funded status of our employee benefit plans. The change in the unrealized gain on securities available-for sale was due primarily to the sale of securities in the first quarter of 2011 which resulted in pre-tax realized gains of $102.5 million.
Statement of Income Summary
The Federal Open Market Committee of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "FOMC") noted that economic growth remains slow. The FOMC noted recent indicators point to continued weakness in overall labor market conditions, in addition to elevated levels of unemployment. The national unemployment rate decreased slightly to 9.1% in September from 9.2% in June and a 9.4% unemployment rate in December 2010. The FOMC noted that household spending has increased at only a modest pace in recent months. Investment in non-residential structures is still weak, and the housing sector continues to be depressed. As a result, the FOMC decided to extend the average maturity of its security holdings. The FOMC plans to purchase Treasury securities with maturities of 6 to 30 years funded by the sale of an equal amount of Treasury securities with remaining maturities of 3 years or less in a program commonly referred to as Operation Twist. This shift in security holdings by the FOMC will put downward pressure on longer-term interest rates. The FOMC also decided to maintain the overnight lending rate at zero to 0.25% through at least 2013. The decision to leave the overnight lending rate unchanged has kept short-term market interest rates at low levels during the first nine months of 2011. The yields on mortgage-related assets have also remained at low levels during the same period. The actions commenced by the FOMC could place additional downward pressure on our net interest margin as our interest-earning assets re-price.
Net interest income decreased $45.7 million, or 15.7%, to $244.6 million for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $290.3 million for the third quarter of 2010. Our net interest rate spread increased to 1.76% for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to 1.73% for the third quarter of 2010. Our net interest margin remained unchanged at 1.97% for both the third quarter of 2011 and 2010. The increase in the net interest rate spread was due primarily to the effects of the Restructuring Transaction which included the extinguishment of $12.5 billion of structured putable borrowings with an average cost of 3.56%. The extinguishment of the borrowings was funded by the sale of $8.66 billion of securities with an average yield of 3.20% and $5.00 billion of new short-term fixed-maturity borrowings with an average cost of 0.66%.
Net interest income decreased $165.0 million, or 17.6%, to $774.0 million for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $939.0 million for the first nine months of 2010. During the first nine months of 2011, our net interest rate spread decreased 13 basis points to 1.73% and our net interest margin decreased 16 basis points to 1.94% as compared to 2.10% for the same period in 2010.
Our net interest margin for the third quarter of 2011 was flat compared to the third quarter of 2010 and reflected the effects of the Restructuring Transaction. Our net interest margin decreased for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease was due primarily to the low market interest rates that resulted in lower yields on our mortgage-related interest-earning assets as customers refinanced to lower mortgage rates and our new loan production and asset purchases were at the current low market interest rates. Mortgage-related assets represented 88.9% of our average interest-earning assets during the first nine months of 2011.
Total interest and dividend income for the third quarter of 2011 decreased $164.3 million, or 23.9%, to $524.5 million from $688.8 million for the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in total interest and dividend income was due to a decrease of 44 basis points in the annualized weighted-average yield on total interest-earning assets to 4.19% for the third quarter of 2011 from 4.63% for the same quarter in 2010. The decrease in total interest and dividend income was also due to a decrease in the average balance of total interest-earning assets of $9.47 billion, or 15.9%, to $50.02 billion for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $59.49 billion for the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in the average balance of total interest-earning assets was due primarily to the Restructuring Transaction.
Total interest and dividend income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 decreased $446.5 million, or 20.9%, to $1.69 billion from $2.14 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in total interest and dividend income was primarily due to a decrease of 55 basis points in the annualized weighted-average yield on total interest-earning assets to 4.26% for the first nine months of 2011 from 4.81% for the same period in 2010. The decrease in total interest and dividend income was also due to a decrease in the average balance of total interest-earning assets of $6.33 billion, or 10.7%, to $53.00 billion for the first nine months of 2011 from $59.33 billion for the same period in 2010. The decrease in the average balance of total interest-earning assets was due primarily to the effects of the Restructuring Transaction.
Interest on first mortgage loans decreased $41.4 million to $375.7 million for the third quarter of 2011 from $417.1 million for the third quarter of 2010. This decrease was primarily due to a $1.80 billion decrease in the average balance of first mortgage loans to $29.76 billion for the third quarter of 2011 from $31.56 billion for the same quarter in 2010. The decrease in interest income on mortgage loans was also due to a 24 basis point decrease in the weighted-average yield to 5.05% for the 2011 third quarter from 5.29% for the 2010 third quarter. The decrease in the average yield earned was due to lower market interest rates on mortgage products and also due to the continued mortgage refinancing activity.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, interest on first mortgage loans decreased $132.5 million, or 10.4%, to $1.14 billion from $1.27 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This was primarily due to a 29 basis point decrease in the weighted-average yield to 5.08% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from 5.37% for the same period in 2010. The decrease in interest income on mortgage loans was also due to a $1.68 billion decrease in the average balance of first mortgage loans to $29.88 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $31.56 billion for the same period in 2010. Refinancing activity, which resulted in continued elevated levels of loan repayments, also had an impact on the average balance of our first mortgage loans during the first nine months of 2011.
Interest on mortgage-backed securities decreased $98.4 million to $108.2 million for the third quarter of 2011 from $206.6 million for the third quarter of 2010. This decrease was due to a $5.70 billion decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities to $14.70 billion during the third quarter of 2011 from $20.40 billion for the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in interest on mortgage-backed securities was also due to a 111 basis point decrease in the weighted-average yield to 2.94% for the third quarter of 2011 from 4.05% for the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities was due primarily to the effects of the Restructuring Transaction.
Interest on mortgage-backed securities decreased $243.8 million to $416.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $660.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease was due primarily to a 108 basis point decrease in the weighted-average yield to 3.23% for the first nine months of 2011 from 4.31% for the first nine months of 2010. The decrease in interest income on mortgage-backed securities was also due to a $3.22 billion decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities to $17.19 billion during the first nine months of 2011 from $20.41 billion for the same period in 2010. The decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities was due primarily to the effects of the Restructuring Transaction.
The decrease in the weighted average yield on mortgage-backed securities is a result of lower yields on securities purchased during 2010 when market interest rates were lower than the yield earned on the existing portfolio.
Interest on investment securities decreased $22.4 million to $27.5 million for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $49.9 million for the third quarter of 2010. This decrease was due to a $1.90 billion decrease in the average balance of investment securities to $3.30 billion for the third quarter of 2011 from $5.20 billion for the third quarter of 2010. In addition, the average yield earned on investment securities decreased 51 basis points to 3.33% for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to 3.84% for the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in the average yield earned reflects current market interest rates.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 interest on investment securities decreased $68.2 million to $93.9 million as compared to $162.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease was due to a $1.46 billion decrease in the average balance of investment securities to $3.74 billion for the first nine months of 2011 from $5.20 billion for the first nine months of 2010. In addition, the average yield of investment securities decreased 80 basis points to 3.35% for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to 4.15% for the same period in 2010. The decrease in the average yield earned reflects current market interest rates.
Dividends on FHLB stock decreased $1.3 million, or 12.9%, to $8.8 million for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $10.1 million for the third quarter of 2010. This decrease was due primarily to a $132.6 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB stock to $748.8 million for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $881.4 million for the third quarter of 2010. The effect of the decrease in the average balance was partially offset by a 12 basis point increase in the average dividend yield earned to 4.72% as compared to 4.60% for the third quarter of 2010.
Dividends on FHLB stock decreased $394,000, or 1.2%, to $31.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $31.7 million for the comparable period in 2010. This decrease was due primarily to a $78.2 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB stock to $801.5 million for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $879.7 million for the same period in 2010. The effect of the decrease in the average balance was partially offset by a 40 basis point increase in the average dividend yield earned to 5.20% as compared to 4.80% for the first nine months of 2010.
Interest on Federal funds sold amounted to $519,000 for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $604,000 for the third quarter of 2010. The average balance of Federal funds sold amounted to $1.20 billion for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $1.10 billion for the third quarter of 2010. The yield earned on Federal funds sold was 0.17% for the 2011 third quarter and 0.22% for the 2010 third quarter.
Interest on Federal funds sold amounted to $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The average balance of Federal funds sold amounted to $1.07 billion for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $928.0 million for the same period in 2010. The yield earned on Federal funds sold was 0.24% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 0.23% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
The increase in the average balance of Federal funds sold for the third quarter of 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2011 is primarily due to the timing of the debt extinguishments and the proceeds from securities sales and new borrowings in the Restructuring Transaction as well as proceeds from the calls of investment securities during the third quarter of 2011.
Total interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 decreased $118.6 million, or 29.8%, to $279.9 million from $398.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. This decrease was primarily due to an $8.88 billion, or 16.3%, decrease in the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities to $45.65 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared with $54.53 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. The decrease was also due to a 47 basis point decrease in the weighted-average cost of total interest-bearing liabilities to 2.43% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared with 2.90% for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities was due to the reduction of total borrowings as part of the Restructuring Transaction.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 total interest expense decreased $281.4 million, or 23.4%, to $920.8 million from $1.20 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease was primarily due to a $5.98 billion, or 11.0%, decrease in the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities to $48.58 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with $54.56 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities was due to the reduction of total borrowings as part of the Restructuring Transaction. The decrease was also due to a 42 basis point decrease in the weighted-average cost of total interest-bearing liabilities to 2.53% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with 2.95% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
Interest expense on deposits decreased $9.0 million, or 9.9%, to $81.5 million for the third quarter of 2011 from $90.5 million for the third quarter of 2010. This decrease is due primarily to a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits of 16 basis points to 1.30% for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to 1.46% for the third quarter of 2010. The effect of the decrease in the average cost of deposits was partially offset by a $342.1 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits to $24.93 billion during the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $24.59 billion for the third quarter of 2010.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, interest expense on deposits decreased $39.9 million, or 13.8%, to $250.2 million from $290.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease is due primarily to a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits of 24 basis points to 1.34% for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to 1.58% for the first nine months of 2010. The effect of the decrease in the average cost of deposits was partially offset by a $335.5 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits to $24.93 billion during the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $24.60 billion for the first nine months of 2010.
The decrease in the average cost of deposits during 2011 reflected lower market interest rates and our decision in 2010 to lower deposit rates to slow deposit growth. At September 30, 2011, time deposits scheduled to mature within one year totaled $8.99 billion with an average cost of 1.27%. These time deposits are scheduled to mature as follows: $3.68 billion with an average cost of 1.21% in the fourth quarter of 2011, $2.66 billion with an average cost of 1.31% in the first quarter of 2012, $1.27 billion with an average cost of 1.22% in the second quarter of 2012 and $1.38 billion with an average cost of 1.44% in the third quarter of 2012. Based on our deposit retention experience and current pricing strategy, we anticipate that a significant portion of these time deposits will remain with us as renewed time deposits or as transfers to other deposit products at the prevailing rate.
Interest expense on borrowed funds decreased $109.6 million to $198.4 million for the third quarter of 2011 from $308.0 million for the third quarter of 2010. This decrease was primarily due to a $9.21 billion decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds to $20.72 billion for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $29.93 billion for the third quarter of 2010. This decrease was also due to a 28 basis point decrease in the weighted-average cost of borrowed funds to 3.80% for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to 4.08% for the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in the average balance and cost of our borrowings is due to the effects of the Restructuring Transaction.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 interest expense on borrowed funds decreased $241.6 million to $670.6 million as compared to $912.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease was primarily due to a $6.31 billion decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds to $23.65 billion for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $29.96 billion for the first nine months of 2010. This decrease was also due to a 28 basis point decrease in the weighted-average cost of borrowed funds to 3.79% for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to 4.07% for the first nine months of 2010. The decrease in the average balance and cost of our borrowings is due to the effects of the Restructuring Transaction.
Borrowings amounted to $20.23 billion at September 30, 2011 with an average cost of 3.83%. Borrowings scheduled to mature over the next 12 months are as follows: $750.0 million with an average cost of 0.55% in the fourth quarter of 2011, $900.0 million with an average cost of 0.98% in the first quarter of 2012, $750.0 million with an average cost of 0.74% in the second quarter of 2012 and $750.0 million with an average cost of 0.85% in the third quarter of 2012.
The provision for loan losses amounted to $25.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $50.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in our provision for loan losses during the third quarter of 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 was a result of a stabilization in both the level of charge-offs and the growth rate of non-performing loans as well as a decrease in the size of the loan portfolio. Non-performing loans, defined as non-accruing loans and accruing loans delinquent 90 days or more, amounted to $948.7 million at September 30, 2011 compared with $871.3 million at December 31, 2010. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 3.16% at September 30, 2011 compared with 2.82% at December 31, 2010. The highly publicized foreclosure issues that have recently affected the nation's largest mortgage loan servicers have resulted in greater bank regulatory, court and state attorney general scrutiny. As a result, our foreclosure process and the time to complete a foreclosure have continued to be extended. We are now experiencing a time frame to repayment or foreclosure ranging from 30 to 36 months from the initial non-performing period. This protracted foreclosure process delays our ability to resolve non-performing loans through the sale of the underlying collateral and our ability to maximize any recoveries.
Loans delinquent 30 to 59 days amounted to $405.9 million at September 30, 2011 as compared to $418.9 million at December 31, 2010. Loans delinquent 60 to 89 days amounted to $201.7 million at September 30, 2011 as compared to $193.2 million at December 31, 2010. The allowance for loans losses amounted to $268.8 million at September 30, 2011 as compared to $236.6 million at December 31, 2010. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans and as a percent of non-performing loans was 0.89% and 28.33% respectively at September 30, 2011, as compared to 0.77% and 27.15%, respectively at December 31, 2010. The increases in these ratios were due to our consideration of the continued weak economic conditions during the first nine months of 2011, particularly prolonged elevated levels of unemployment and underemployment, and continued weak conditions in the housing markets in our primary lending area, in our determination of the allowance for loan losses.
Net charge-offs amounted to $18.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 as compared to net charge-offs of $26.7 million for the same quarter in 2010. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans was 0.25% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 0.33% for the same period in 2010. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net charge-offs amounted to $62.8 million as compared to $73.8 million of net charge-offs for the same period in 2010. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans was 0.28% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 0.31% for the same period in 2010.
Total non-interest income was $3.1 million for the third quarter 2011 as compared to $33.9 million for the same quarter in 2010. Included in non-interest income for the third quarter of 2010 were net gains on securities transactions of $31.0 million which resulted from the sale of $810.7 million of mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale. There were no security sales during the three months ended September 30, 2011.
Total non-interest income was $111.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $100.1 million for the same period in 2010. Included in non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were net gains on securities transactions of $102.5 million which resulted from the sale of $9.04 billion of securities available-for-sale. Substantially all of the proceeds from the sale of securities were used to repay borrowings as part of the Restructuring Transaction. Included in non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were net gains on securities transactions of $92.4 million which resulted from the sale of $1.90 billion of mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale.
Total non-interest expense increased $18.0 million to $83.7 million for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $65.7 million for the third quarter of 2010. This increase was due primarily to an $18.9 million increase in Federal deposit insurance assessments and a $3.5 million increase in other non-interest expense, partially offset by a $4.9 million decrease in compensation and employee benefits.
Compensation and employee benefit costs decreased $4.9 million, or 15.3%, to $27.2 million for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $32.1 million for the same period in 2010. This decrease was primarily due to a $6.2 million decrease in expense related to our stock benefit plans due primarily to decreases in the market price of our common stock and a $1.1 million decrease in medical plan expense. These decreases were partially offset by a $1.7 million increase in compensation costs and a $240,000 increase in pension costs. The increase in compensation costs was due primarily to normal increases in salary as well as additional full time employees. At September 30, 2011, we had 1,580 full-time equivalent employees as compared to 1,573 at September 30, 2010.
Federal deposit insurance expense increased $18.9 million, or 126.0%, to $33.9 million for the third quarter of 2011 from $15.0 million for the third quarter of 2010. This increase was due primarily to the new deposit assessment methodology adopted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation that became effective on April 1, 2011 and which redefined the assessment base as average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity. Previously, deposit insurance assessments were based on the amount of deposits.
Included in other expense for the third quarter of 2011 were write-downs on foreclosed real estate and net losses on the sale of foreclosed real estate of $2.1 million as compared to $391,000 for the third quarter of 2010. This increase was due primarily to increased activity in foreclosed real estate. We sold 39 properties during the third quarter of 2011 and had 130 properties in foreclosed real estate, 39 of which were under contract to sell as of September 30, 2011. For the third quarter of 2010, we sold 20 properties and had 104 properties in foreclosed real estate, of which 32 were under contract to sell as of September 30, 2010.
Total non-interest expense amounted to $1.41 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $196.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Included in total non-interest expense for the first nine months of 2011 was a $1.17 billion loss on the extinguishment of debt related to the Restructuring Transaction.
Compensation and employee benefit costs decreased $11.0 million, or 11.1%, to $88.0 million for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $99.0 million for the same period in 2010. The decrease in compensation costs is primarily due to a $16.8 million decrease in expense related to our stock benefit plans due primarily to decreases in the market price of our common stock. This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $3.4 million increase in compensation costs due primarily to normal increases in salary as well as additional full time employees, a $1.2 million increase in medical plan expense and a $726,000 increase in pension costs.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 Federal deposit insurance increased $42.5 million, or 103.9%, to $83.4 million from $40.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
Included in other non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were write-downs on foreclosed real estate and net losses on the sale of foreclosed real estate, of $4.9 million as compared to $1.2 million for the comparable period in 2010. We sold 113 properties during the first nine months of 2011 as compared to 58 properties for the same period in 2010.
Our efficiency ratio was 33.77% for the 2011 third quarter as compared to 20.27% for the 2010 third quarter. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, our efficiency ratio was 30.25% compared with 18.94% for the corresponding 2010 period. The efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing non-interest expense, excluding the loss on the extinguishment of debt, by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income, excluding net securities gains from the Restructuring Transaction. Our annualized ratio of non-interest expense to average total assets for the third quarter of 2011 was 0.65% as compared to 0.43% for the third quarter of 2010. Our annualized ratio of non-interest expense to average total assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was 3.47% compared with 0.43% for the corresponding period in 2010. Excluding the loss on the extinguishment of debt, our annualized ratio of operating non-interest expense to average total assets was 0.59% for the first nine months of 2011. Please see page 14 of this press release for a reconciliation of operating earnings to the Company's earnings reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and a calculation of the efficiency ratio.
Income tax expense amounted to $54.9 million for the third quarter of 2011 compared with income tax expense $83.9 million for the same quarter in 2010. Our effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2011 was 39.46% compared with 40.25% for the third quarter of 2010. Income tax benefit amounted to $244.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with income tax expense $276.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Reconciliation of GAAP and Operating Earnings |
|
(Unaudited) |
|
Operating earnings are not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, we believe that operating earnings are an important indication of earnings from our core banking operations. Operating earnings typically exclude the effects of certain non-recurring or unusual transactions, such as the Restructuring Transaction. We believe that our presentation of operating earnings provides useful supplemental information to both management and investors in evaluating the Company's financial results. |
|
Operating earnings should not be considered a substitute for net income, earnings per share or any other data prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, we may calculate operating earnings differently from other companies reporting data with similar names. |

- Net charge-offs amounted to $18.6 million for the third quarter of 2011.
- Updated valuations are received on or before the time a loan becomes 180 days past due. If necessary, we charge-off an amount to reduce the loan's carrying value to the updated valuation less estimated selling costs.
- Based on the valuation indices, house prices have declined in the New York metropolitan area, where 74.6% of our non-performing loans were located at September 30, 2011, by approximately 23% from the peak of the market in 2006 through July 2011 and by 32% nationwide during that period. From July 2010 to July 2011, the house price indices decreased by approximately 3% in the New York metropolitan area and 4% nationwide.
- Our quantitative and qualitative analysis of the allowance for loan losses considers the results of the reappraisal process as well as the results of our foreclosed property transactions which includes a further evaluation of economic factors, such as trends in the unemployment rate, ratio analysis to evaluate the overall measurement of the allowance for loan losses, a review of delinquency ratios, house price indices, net charge-off ratios and the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to both non-performing loans and total loans.
