The Company recorded net income for the six months ended March 31, 2019 of $4.7 million or $1.22 per diluted common share, representing a 246.2% improvement versus 2018. Core operating net income for the six months ended March 31, 2019, which excludes the impact of a non-recurring real estate carrying value write-down and the impact of non-recurring deferred tax asset and debt restructuring charges in applicable periods, was $4.8 million or $1.24 per diluted common share, an increase of 108.6% versus the prior year-to-date period.
  • Balance Sheet: Assets totaled $669.6 million at March 31, 2019, up $18.1 million, or 2.8%, from December 31, 2018 and up $103.6 million, or 18.3%, from March 31, 2018 primarily due to continued strong loan growth.
  • Continued Capital Strength: The Bank’s Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.88% and its Total Risk-Weighted Capital Ratio was 22.90% at March 31, 2019, each significantly above the regulatory minimums for a well-capitalized institution.

The growth in loans recorded during the first quarter of 2019 is net of $68.6 million in sales of performing credits during that period.  For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, gross loan originations were $83.8 million, an increase of 47.5% over the prior year quarter.

  • New Branch Location:  The Company opened its fourth branch location in Flushing, Queens, N.Y., in February 2019.

At March 31, 2019, CFSB had total assets of $136 million, total loans of $91 million and total deposits of $104 million. This transaction is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2019, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

MINEOLA, N.Y., April 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hanover Bancorp, Inc. (“Hanover” or “the Company”), the holding company for Hanover Community Bank (“the Bank”) today reported significant performance achievements for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, highlighted by record levels of total assets, net income and tangible book value per share, continued momentum in year-over-year loan and deposit growth and outstanding asset quality.

Earnings Summary for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2019

The Company recorded record net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 of $2.3 million or $0.61 per diluted common share, versus $1.4 million or $0.42 per diluted common share in the comparable 2018 quarter, an increase of $913 thousand or 64.1%.

The improvement in net income achieved in the March quarter resulted from several factors, most notably a $907 thousand or 20.9% increase in net interest income coupled with a $648 thousand improvement in non-interest income and a $50 thousand reduction in the provision for loan losses in 2019 versus the first quarter of 2018. Growth in average interest-earning assets (up $97.5 million or 18.3%) resulting from an increase in average total loans of $94.5 million, or 19.4%, coupled with a seven basis point widening of the net interest margin to 3.37% in the first quarter of 2019, accounted for the year-over-year improvement in net interest income. The growth in non-interest income resulted from a significant increase in gains on the sale of loans held-for-sale. Partially offsetting the foregoing improvements was an increase in non-interest expense of $372 thousand in the first quarter of calendar 2019 versus the comparable year ago period.  The higher level of non-interest expense was principally due to growth in compensation and benefits in connection with an increase in staff to support the Company’s continued operational expansion. Higher marketing and advertising costs also contributed to the increase in operating expenses.

Michael P. Puorro, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented on the Company’s results: “We maintained our strong operating momentum in the first calendar quarter of 2019 by remaining focused on our core loan generation strategy which resulted in annual portfolio growth of approximately $84 million or 17%. We also continued to expand our ability to generate non-interest income through sales of high quality performing loans which has led to another quarter of record earnings.  When compared to the first quarter of last year, we have been able to report a $913 thousand or 64% improvement in quarterly GAAP net income and a corresponding increase in earnings per share and tangible book value per share while continuing to invest in the Company’s future through talent acquisition and franchise building. We also achieved year-over-year net interest income growth of 20.9%, loan growth of 16.8%, net of $198 million in sales during the last twelve months, and deposit growth of 16.2%. Our loan growth story continues to be highlighted by industry leading asset quality.  At March 31, 2019, for the seventeenth consecutive quarter, our loan portfolio had no non-performing loans.  We believe that our growth outlook remains robust as evidenced by our most recent quarter-end originations of $84 million and our current loan pipeline of $99 million.  Additionally, we are pleased to report that our newest branch, located in the beautiful Flushing Commons development, opened in February to rave reviews. This high visibility, state-of-the-art branch will service our existing Flushing customer base and provide a full range of banking services to both businesses and individuals in the greater Flushing community. During the first quarter, we also completed a conversion of our core operating system to the Fiserv Premier platform. This long planned upgrade was executed seamlessly and will provide Hanover customers and staff with significant additional convenience and operational capabilities.”

Mr. Puorro also noted, “Our ability to generate shareholder value continues to be reflected by robust growth in book value per share which increased by $2.62, or 18.8%, to $16.53 per share at March 31, 2019 versus the comparable 2018 date. We’ve been able to achieve these results while maintaining a core operating efficiency ratio of 51% that is also class-leading amongst peers our size.”

Strong Balance Sheet Growth

Total assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 amounted to $669.6 million, an increase of $103.6 million from the comparable 2018 date as the Bank continued to record significant loan portfolio growth (up $84.2 million) without any sacrifice in asset quality. The year-over-year balance sheet growth was funded by increases in total deposits (up $65.8 million), borrowings (up $21.0 million) and shareholders’ equity (up $16.7 million).

Total deposits at March 31, 2019 expanded by 16.2% to $472.7 million when compared to March 31, 2018, the result of significant growth in core (Demand, N.O.W., Savings and Money Market) deposits (up $79.9 million). Core deposits grew by 66.1% as the result of increases in Demand, N.O.W. and Money Market accounts. Management has also been successful in expanding its FHLB borrowing capacity which is strategically utilized to enhance both the Bank’s liquidity position and its interest rate risk profile. FHLB borrowings are used selectively to supplement management’s ongoing effort to build low cost core deposit balances through relationship banking at each of its branch locations. Total borrowings at March 31, 2019 were $115.7 million with a weighted average rate and term of 1.92% and 18 months, respectively. At March 31, 2019, the Bank had $45.3 million of additional borrowing capacity from the FHLB.

Shareholders’ equity grew by $16.7 million to $63.4 million at March 31, 2019 from the comparable 2018 date resulting in a $2.62 or 18.8 % increase in book value per share over the past twelve months to $16.53 at March 31, 2019.  The Company’s executive management team and Board of Directors are always focused on continued enhancement of shareholder value through prudent asset growth, effective expense management and the development of long-term customer relationships in its primary markets.  Insiders continue to make significant investments of their own capital into Hanover Bancorp, Inc. Such insider ownership represented approximately 28% of total shares outstanding at March 31, 2019.

The Company’s average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 2.07% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, from 1.68% a year ago and 1.92% on a linked quarter basis. This increase is primarily due to the significant ongoing competition for deposits in the Bank’s core geographic area, a shift in the Company’s deposit mix to a greater concentration of high yield money market accounts and an increase in non-deposit funding when compared to the year ago period.  Partially offsetting the 39 basis point increase in the Company’s average cost of interest-bearing liabilities from the March 2018 quarter was a corresponding 36 basis point improvement in the average yield on interest-earning assets to 5.15% during the first quarter of 2019, primarily driven by higher average loan yields (up 31 basis points in 2019) and a continued shift in the loan portfolio mix to a reduced reliance on lower-yielding multi-family credits in 2019.

Strong Loan Portfolio and Industry Leading Asset Quality

For the twelve months ended March 31, 2019, the Bank’s loan portfolio, net of sales, grew by $84.2 million, or 16.8%, with the growth concentrated primarily in adjustable-rate two-to-four family residential loans. Management continues to employ a strategy of concentrating its loan growth in these products with shorter durations, which provides the Bank with traditionally safe credit quality at acceptable credit spreads, greater liquidity and an enhanced interest-rate-risk profile. Over the past year, originations of our niche adjustable-rate residential product amounted to $250.4 million with an average loan balance of approximately $530 thousand and a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 57%. At March 31, 2019, the Company’s residential loan portfolio amounted to $400.3 million, with an average loan balance of $406 thousand and a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 53%. During the same twelve month period, the Bank originated $22.1 million in commercial real estate loans, inclusive of multi-family loans, with an average loan balance of approximately $962 thousand and a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 56%. Commercial real estate loans totaled $176.5 million at March 31, 2019, with an average loan balance of $995 thousand and a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 57%. The Company’s commercial real estate concentration ratio was 206% of capital at March 31, 2019 versus 275% of capital at the comparable 2018 date.

Through its significant asset generation capabilities, the Bank has been able to generate additional income by strategically originating and selling its primary lending products to other financial institutions at premiums, while also retaining servicing rights in some sales. The Bank expects that it will continue to originate loans, for its own portfolio and for sale, which will result in continued growth in interest income while also realizing gains on sale of loans to others and recording servicing income. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Company sold $69 million in performing loans and recorded gains on the sale of loans held-for-sale of $1.3 million versus gains of $1.3 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2018 and gains of $665 thousand in the quarter ended March 31, 2018.  During the twelve months ended March 31, 2019, the Company sold $197.7 million in performing loans held-for-sale and recorded cumulative gains of $4.0 million.

The Bank’s asset quality ratios continue to remain pristine and class leading among its peer group of community banks. At March 31, 2019, the loan portfolio, for the seventeenth consecutive quarter, had no non-performing loans. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Bank’s provision for loan losses was $200 thousand and the March 31, 2019 allowance for loan losses balance was $6.9 million versus $5.6 million a year ago. The Bank continues to record a quarterly provision for loan losses expense due to the ongoing growth in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 1.18% at March 31, 2019, 1.19% at December 31, 2018 and 1.12% at March 31, 2018. 

Net Interest Margin

The Bank’s net interest margin remained strong during the first calendar quarter of 2019 at 3.37% versus 3.30% in the comparable 2018 quarter and 3.43% in the quarter ended December 31, 2018. The seven basis point increase in the Bank’s net interest margin versus 2018 was primarily attributable to a 36 basis point increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets to 5.15% from 4.79% a year ago.  This improvement in yield was largely the result of a 31 basis point increase in the average loan yield to 5.31% in 2019. The Bank’s average cost of interest-bearing liabilities rose by 39 basis points to 2.07% in the first quarter of 2019 as the result of continued intense competition for deposits in the Company’s market area and a greater reliance on non-core funding sources, principally certificates of deposit and FHLB borrowings. Year-over-year growth in average core deposits of 49.0% versus the quarter ended March 31, 2018, due principally to growth in demand, N.O.W. and money market accounts, coupled with a 34.6% increase in average stockholders’ equity partially mitigated the higher cost of funds in the first quarter.

Operating Leverage and Efficiency Ratio

The Bank’s operating efficiency ratio was 50.6% in the first calendar quarter of 2019 versus 58.7% a year ago.  Although total operating expenses continue to rise on a year-over-year basis, the Bank’s net operating revenue continues to grow rapidly as well.  Pre-provision net revenue (net interest income plus non-interest income minus total operating expenses) represented 2.06% of average total assets on an annualized basis during the first quarter of 2019 versus 1.56% in the comparable 2018 quarter.
