TOWNSHIP OF WASHINGTON, N.J., Jan. 30, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oritani Financial Corp. (the "Company"), the holding company for Oritani Bank (the "Bank"), reported net income of $39,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, and $2.5 million, or $0.07 per share, for the six months ended December 31, 2008. This compares to net income of $2.2 million, or $0.06 per share, and $5.2 million, or $0.13 per share, for the corresponding 2007 periods, respectively.
"While there were several positive developments over the quarter, they were overshadowed as some of the negative trends that have been plaguing the industry had a sizeable impact on Oritani" said Kevin J. Lynch, the Company's Chairman, President and CEO. "We have placed problematic loans on nonaccrual status earlier than required and we have been very aggressive with borrowers who have not paid in accordance with the terms of their agreements. I believe this approach will ultimately bring us the highest recovery. The short term impact of the approach, however, has been an increased amount of litigation against borrowers, higher loan loss provisions and decreased income."
Mr. Lynch continued "Hidden behind some of the disappointing numbers on the income statement are some substantial balance sheet changes. Our deposit growth, a management focus, was tremendous. Loan growth sustained its strong pace. Coupled with stock repurchases, we continue to leverage the capital raised from our initial public offering. In addition, we opened two new branch locations during the quarter."
Comparison of Operating Results for the Periods Ended December 31, 2008 and 2007
Net Income. Net income decreased $2.2 million to $39,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, from net income of $2.2 million for the corresponding 2007 quarter. Net income decreased $2.6 million or 50.8%, to $2.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from net income of $5.2 million for the corresponding 2007 period. Results for the periods ended December 31, 2008 were negatively impacted by increased provision for loan losses and an impairment charge related to equity investments, as well as increased compensation expense, partially offset by increased net interest income.
Total Interest Income. Total interest income increased by $4.1 million or 23.4%, to $21.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $17.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The largest increase occurred in interest on loans, which increased $4.5 million or 33.3%, to $18.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $13.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Over that same period, the average balance of loans increased $349.4 million and the yield on the portfolio decreased 41 basis points. Interest on the investment related captions of securities held to maturity ("HTM"), securities available for sale ("AFS") and mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") HTM decreased by $699,000, or 25.1%, to $2.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The combined average balances of these portfolios decreased $52.8 million over the period while the combined average yield decreased 26 basis points. The Company has focused on loan originations and its investment activity has been concentrated on the MBS AFS portfolio. Interest on mortgage-backed securities available for sale ("MBS AFS") increased by $585,000 to $1.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $1.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The average balance of MBS AFS increased $56.1 million and the yield on the portfolio decreased 45 basis points over that same period. There was minimal interest income on federal funds sold and short term investments over the three months ended December 31, 2008. This portfolio has been redeployed into loans and MBS AFS. The average balance of this portfolio decreased $18.9 million over the period.
Total interest income increased by $7.8 million, or 22.3%, to $42.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $34.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The largest increase occurred in interest on loans, which increased $8.4 million or 32.0%, to $34.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $26.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. Over that same period, the average balance of loans increased $321.1 million and the yield on the portfolio decreased 37 basis points. Interest on the investment related captions of securities held to maturity ("HTM"), securities available for sale ("AFS") and mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") HTM decreased by $1.4 million, or 25.1%, to $4.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $5.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The combined average balances of these portfolios decreased $56.2 million over the period while the combined average yield decreased 21 basis points. The Company has focused on loan originations and its investment activity has been concentrated on the MBS AFS portfolio. Interest on MBS AFS increased by $1.8 million to $3.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $1.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The average balance of MBS AFS increased $80.2 million and the yield on the portfolio decreased 48 basis points over that same period. There was minimal interest income on federal funds sold and short term investments over the six months ended December 31, 2008. This portfolio has been redeployed into loans and MBS AFS. The average balance of this portfolio decreased $39.8 million over the period.
Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased by $1.8 million, or 19.8%, to $11.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $9.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Interest expense on deposits decreased by $150,000, or 2.4%, to $6.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $6.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The average balance of deposits increased $129.0 million and the average cost of these funds decreased 65 basis points over the period. Market interest rates allowed the Bank to reprice many maturing time deposits at lower rates, decreasing the cost of funds. The interest rate environment also allowed the Company to decrease interest rates on borrowings while significantly increasing balances. Interest expense on borrowings increased by $2.0 million to $5.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $3.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The average balance of borrowings increased $237.8 million and the cost decreased 50 basis points over the period. The increase in the average balance was necessary to fund asset growth.
Total interest expense increased by $3.0 million, or 16.4%, to $21.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $18.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. Interest expense on deposits decreased by $1.4 million, or 11.2%, to $11.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $12.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The average balance of interest bearing deposits increased $72.0 million and the average cost of these funds decreased 71 basis points over this period. Interest expense on borrowings increased by $4.4 million, or 78.7%, to $9.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $5.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The average balance of borrowings increased $252.2 million and the cost decreased 49 basis points over this period. The factors described above for the three month period also affected the six month period.
Net Interest Income Before Provision for Loan Losses. Net interest income increased by $2.3 million, or 27.3%, to $10.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $8.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The Company's net interest rate spread increased to 2.34% for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from 2.02% for the three months ended December 31, 2007. However, the Company's net interest margin decreased to 2.79% for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from 2.80% for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The Company's net interest rate spread and net interest margin were hindered in the 2008 period due to nonaccrual loans. The Company's net interest income was reduced by $913,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 due to the impact of nonaccrual loans. On a linked quarter comparison, the Company's net interest rate spread decreased 16 basis points to 2.34% from 2.50% for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and the Company's net interest margin decreased 23 basis points to 2.79% from 3.02% for the three months ended September 30, 2008. The Company's net interest income was reduced by $457,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 due to the impact of nonaccrual loans.

The Company's net interest rate spread increased to 2.42% for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from 2.07% for the six months ended December 31, 2007.

The Company's net interest rate spread and net interest margin were hindered in the 2008 period due to nonaccrual loans. The Company's net interest income was reduced by $1.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008 due to the impact of nonaccrual loans.
Provision for Loan Losses. The Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $3.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $950,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The Company also recorded provisions for loan losses of $5.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. There were no recoveries or charge-offs in any of the periods.
The Company's allowance for loan losses is analyzed quarterly and many factors are considered, including comparison to peer reserve levels. A component of the increased provision in the 2008 period was loan growth. Loans, net increased $197.1 million over the six months ended December 31, 2008, versus growth of $107.3 million over the comparable 2007 period. The delinquency and nonaccrual totals, however, also had a considerable impact on the provision for loan losses.

The level and magnitude of the delinquent loan total have increased since the last quarter. The Company has maintained a very aggressive posture toward delinquent borrowers. The Company has commenced legal action against virtually all borrowers who are more than 45 days delinquent. The Company has refused to extend the maturity date of any construction loan, even if the interest payments are current, unless the borrower agrees to reduce the Company's exposure and agrees to a monetary penalty if the loan is not paid in full on or before the new maturity date. The nonaccrual total at December 31, 2008 includes loans that are less than 90 days delinquent. The Company has classified these loans as nonaccrual as the borrowers are having difficulty making contractual payments and it is considered probable that the loan will become 90 days delinquent.
The nonaccrual total of $44.1 million at December 31, 2008 includes all of the loans ($25.3 million) that were classified as nonaccrual at September 30, 2008. These loans have been discussed in prior public releases. Two of these loans are to one borrower and totaled $17.4 million at September 30, 2008. The loans are secured by a condominium construction project and raw land with all building approvals, both of which are in Northern New Jersey. Oritani has been working with the borrower. The construction of the condominium project is virtually complete and the individual unit sales process has commenced. As of December 31, 2008, the total outstanding on these loans was $18.3 million. These two loans were considered impaired as of December 31, 2008. In accordance with the results of the Company's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards #114 ("FAS 114") impairment analyses, a specific reserve of $4.2 million has been recorded against one of these loans. No reserve was required for the other loan as the loan is considered to be well collateralized. The other significant component of nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2008 was a $7.9 million loan secured by a retail mall in Northern New Jersey. This borrower had two other loans that were not delinquent at September 30, 2008. These loans totaled $10.2 million and are secured by a golf course in Bergen County, New Jersey. All three of these loans were classified as nonaccrual and impaired, in accordance with FAS 114, at December 31, 2008. Oritani is in litigation with this borrower, foreclosure proceedings have commenced and a rent receiver has been placed in control of the operations of these properties. Net cash generated will be forwarded from the rent receiver to Oritani. In accordance with the results of the impairment analyses, no reserve was required for these loans as they were considered to be well collateralized. The other significant portions of the nonaccrual total at December 31, 2008 were three loans to one borrower that totaled $6.6 million. These loans were secured by various warehouse properties in Rockland and Westchester counties, New York. All three of these loans were classified as nonaccrual and impaired, in accordance with FAS 114, at December 31, 2008. Oritani is in litigation with this borrower, foreclosure proceedings have commenced and we are attempting to have a rent receiver appointed by the court. In accordance with the results of the impairment analyses, no reserves were required as the loans were considered to be well collateralized.
Below is a rollforward of the allowance for loan losses for the fiscal year (dollars in thousands):
Quarter Ended Sept. 30, 2008 Dec. 31, 2008 -------------- ------------- Balance at the beginning of period $ 13,532 $ 15,407 Provision for loan losses 1,875 3,500 Charge-offs -- -- ----------------------------- Balance at the end of period $ 15,407 $18,907 ============================= Allowance as a % of total loans 1.34% 1.54% =============================
Other Income. Other income decreased by $1.7 million to a net loss of $564,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from income of $1.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The primary reason for the decrease was a $1.8 million impairment charge taken regarding equity securities in the Company's AFS portfolio. Income on the real estate investment captions of net real estate operations and income from investments in real estate joint ventures increased by $25,000, or 4.3%, to $611,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $586,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The income reported in these captions is dependent upon the operations of various properties and is subject to fluctuation. Overall, however, joint venture operations have been slightly impacted by increased vacancies and operational costs.
Other income decreased by $1.8 million to $669,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $2.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The primary change was again the $1.8 million impairment charge taken regarding equity securities in the Company's AFS portfolio. Income on the real estate investment captions of net real estate operations and income from investments in real estate joint ventures decreased by $117,000, or 8.6%, to $1.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $1.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007.
Other Expenses. Operating expenses increased $1.6 million, or 32.9% to $6.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $4.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Compensation, payroll taxes and fringe benefits increased $1.1 million over the period. The primary factor in this increase was $834,000 of expense in the 2008 quarter associated with the amortization of the Company's stock benefit plans. There was also an increase of $208,000 directly pertaining to compensation, due to additional staff and merit increases. Insurance, legal, audit and accounting expenses increased $261,000 primarily due to increased legal costs and costs associated with audit and exams, SOX and compliance during the 2008 period.
Operating expenses increased by $3.3 million or 35.8% to $12.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, from $9.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The increase was again primarily due to compensation, payroll taxes and fringe benefits, which increased $2.4 million, or 37.1%, over the period. This increase was primarily comprised of $1.8 million in costs associated with the Company's stock benefit plans, a $486,000 increase in compensation, and $175,000 pertaining to other retirement/insurance benefits. Insurance, legal, audit and accounting expenses increased $468,000 primarily due to increased costs associated with our audit and exams, SOX and compliance during the 2008 period.
Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2008, was $47,000, due to pre-tax income of $86,000, resulting in an effective tax rate of 54.7%. For the three months ended December 31, 2007, income tax expense was $1.5 million, due to pre-tax income of $3.7 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 40.7%. Income tax expense for the six months ended December 31, 2008, was $1.8 million, due to pre-tax income of $4.3 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 41.4%. For the six months ended December 31, 2007, income tax expense was $3.6 million, due to pre-tax income of $8.7 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 40.94%. The Company's effective tax rate increased during the 2008 periods due to a valuation allowance on future state tax benefits associated with the impairment charges on equity securities.

Total Assets. Total assets increased $211.8 million, or 14.7%, to $1.66 billion at December 31, 2008, from $1.44 billion at June 30, 2008. The increase was primarily in loans and was funded through increased deposits and borrowings.
