Net income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $66.1 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, compared to net income of $58.7 million, or $0.70 per diluted share for the prior calendar year. Results for the year ended December 31, 2015 included pre-tax merger-related expenses and other restructuring charges of $42.7 million that were incurred in connection with the Company's merger (the "HVB Merger") with Hudson Valley Holding Corp. ("Hudson Valley"). Results for 2015 also included a pre-tax charge of $13.4 million related to the termination of the Company's defined benefit pension plans, which was incurred in the third quarter.
President's Comments
Jack Kopnisky, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "This was another year of strong operating performance, highlighted by significant organic growth in loans and deposits and our acquisition of Hudson Valley in June 2015. Since December 31, 2014, our total loans have grown by $3.0 billion to $7.9 billion, and total commercial loans have grown by $2.8 billion to $6.8 billion. This represents growth of 63.2% and 67.6%, respectively. As of December 31, 2015, our total assets reached $12.0 billion compared to $7.4 billion a year ago. Excluding the balances acquired in the HVB Merger, total loans for the year grew $1.3 billion, or 26.0%; and total deposits grew $206.9 million, or 4.0%. We are well-positioned for future growth and continue to focus on our objective of creating a high performing regional bank.
"Core net income for the quarter was $33.5 million and core diluted earnings per share were $0.26 compared to $19.6 million and $0.23, respectively, for the same quarter a year ago. Our core return on average tangible assets was 1.22% and core return on average tangible equity was 14.60%. This compares to 1.13% and 14.42%, respectively, for the same quarter a year ago.
"For the year ended December 31, 2015, our core net income was $105.4 million and our core earnings per diluted share were $0.96. This represented an increase of 58.1% and 21.5%, respectively, over the same period a year ago. For the year, our core return on average tangible assets was 1.17% and core return on average tangible equity was 13.86%. Both metrics are on-track to achieve our long-term profitability goals.
"On a linked quarter basis, our core total revenue grew 2.0% while core non-interest expense decreased by 0.9%. We are focused on creating positive operating leverage, which continued in the fourth quarter with revenue growth that significantly outpaced the level of expense growth. For the quarter, our core operating efficiency ratio was 47.6%, which compares to 49.0% in the linked quarter and 54.0% in the same quarter last year. For the year, our core operating efficiency ratio was 50.8%, which represented an improvement of 610 basis points relative to the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.
"We continue to experience strong loan growth across multiple asset classes. As of December 31, 2015, total loans were $7.9 billion, which represented annualized growth of 17.6% over the prior quarter end and growth of $623.8 million, or 17.1% annualized, since the completion of the merger with Hudson Valley. During the quarter, our commercial loan balances grew $334.0 million, which represented annualized growth of 20.4% over the prior quarter end. Through the addition of four new teams, we are continuing to build our banking relationships which will support our future growth.
"As of December 31, 2015, our total deposits were $8.6 billion. Our core deposits were $7.8 billion, which represented 91.2% of our total deposit balances. Our total cost of deposits was 0.26% for the three months ended December 31, 2015. For the quarter, the average balances of our demand, savings and money market deposits grew by $122.8 million, an annualized growth rate of 6.0% over the linked quarter.
"We continue to focus on diversifying and improving our revenue mix. Non-interest income excluding securities losses was $16.2 million for the quarter, which represented 14.5% of total revenue. We will continue growing our diversified commercial lending businesses, which are strong fee income generators, and we will continue to actively evaluate opportunistic acquisitions, as we have previously disclosed.
"Net charge-offs against the allowance for loan losses for the three months ended December 31, 2015 were $3.0 million, or 0.15% on an annualized basis, compared to $1.7 million, or 0.09% on an annualized basis, in the three months ended September 30, 2015. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.64%. As a result of purchase accounting, a substantial portion of the loans acquired in prior merger transactions do not have an allocation in the allowance for loan losses as the performance of these loans remains satisfactory. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans continues to strengthen and increased from 70.4% at September 30, 2015 to 75.5% at December 31, 2015.
"Our capital position remains strong. At December 31, 2015, our tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 8.18% and our Tier 1 leverage ratio was 8.94%. At Sterling National Bank, our Tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.65%. We have ample capital and liquidity to support our organic growth and execute our strategy.
"Lastly, I am pleased to announce our Board of Directors has declared a dividend on our common stock of $0.07 per share payable on February 22, 2016 to our holders as of the record date of February 5, 2016."
Reconciliation of Core to GAAP Results

Excluding the impact of these items, core net income was $33.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted share.

Net Interest Income and Margin
Fourth quarter 2015 compared with fourth quarter 2014
Net interest income was $95.4 million, up $35.2 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2014. This was mainly the result of higher average loans and investment securities balances due to the HVB Merger and organic growth. For the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to the fourth quarter of 2014 the tax-equivalent yield on investment securities decreased 7 basis points to 2.66% and the yield on loans decreased 9 basis points to 4.65%. Yield on loans in the fourth quarter of 2015 included $7.1 million in accretion of the fair value discount associated with prior acquisitions. The cost of total deposits was 26 basis points and the cost of borrowings was 2.04% compared to 21 basis points and 2.21%, respectively for the prior year. The tax-equivalent yield on interest earning assets declined 6 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2014 to 4.09% for the fourth quarter of 2015. The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis was 3.68% compared to 3.70% for the same period a year ago.
Fourth quarter 2015 compared with linked quarter ended September 30, 2015
Net interest income increased $2.1 million compared to the linked quarter ended September 30, 2015. The increase in net interest income was mainly due to a $327.1 million increase in the average balance of loans outstanding compared to the linked quarter. Partially offsetting this increase was a decline in the yield on loans, which was 4.65% for the quarter compared to 4.75% for the linked quarter. The decline in the yield on loans was mainly the result of lower collections in the fourth quarter on loans formerly charged-off by Hudson Valley and lower loan prepayment penalties. The tax-equivalent yield on interest earning assets was 4.09% compared to 4.15% in the linked quarter. Tax-equivalent net interest margin was 3.68% compared to 3.76% in the linked quarter.
Non-interest Income
Fourth quarter 2015 compared with fourth quarter 2014
Excluding net (loss) gains on sale of securities, non-interest income increased $2.2 million to $16.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter last year. The increase was mainly due to increases in factoring commissions and other fees, bank owned life insurance, investment management fees and other non-interest income. The Company realized a net loss on sale of securities of $121 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to a net loss on sale of securities of $43 thousand in the same quarter last year.
Fourth quarter 2015 compared with linked quarter ended September 30, 2015
Excluding net (loss) gains on sale of securities, non-interest income increased $126 thousand to $16.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2015. The increase was mainly due to an increase in other income of $369 thousand and an increase in bank owned life insurance of $499 thousand. These gains were partially offset by a decrease in factoring commissions and other fees of $372 thousand. The Company realized a net gain on sale of securities of $2.7 million in the linked quarter ended September 30, 2015.
Non-interest Expense
Fourth quarter 2015 compared with fourth quarter 2014
Non-interest expense increased $11.6 million relative to the fourth quarter of 2014 to $57.4 million. The increase was due to increases in compensation and benefits expense of $7.5 million, occupancy and office operations expense of $2.1 million and amortization of intangible assets of $1.6 million which were mainly due to the HVB Merger.
Fourth quarter 2015 compared with linked quarter ended September 30, 2015
Non-interest expense decreased $13.9 million compared to the linked quarter, mainly due to a decrease attributed to the pension plan termination charge of $13.4 million, which was incurred in the third quarter of 2015. Also contributing to the decline in non-interest expense was a $1.0 million decrease in other non-interest expense and a decline in occupancy and office operations of $270 thousand. These declines were partially offset by an increase in compensation and benefits expense of $630 thousand, as we have continued to add personnel in our commercial relationship banking, asset-based lending and community development banking businesses to support future growth.
Taxes
In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company recorded income taxes at a rate of 32.5%, compared to an effective tax rate of 32.5% in the linked quarter and 33.2% for the same quarter last year. We estimate our effective tax rate for 2016 will be 34.0%.

Credit Quality
Non-performing loans, which includes non-accrual loans and loans over 90 days past due still accruing interest, decreased $1.3 million to $66.4 million, or 0.84% of total loans at December 31, 2015 compared to $67.7 million, or 0.90% of total loans at September 30, 2015. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2015 that were charged to the allowance for loan losses were $3.0 million, compared to $1.7 million in the linked quarter. The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2015 was $50.1 million, which represented 75.5% of non-performing loans and 0.64% of our total loan portfolio compared to $47.6 million, 70.4% and 0.63%, respectively, as of September 30, 2015. The increase in the balance of the allowance for loan losses was mainly related to the higher balance of loans outstanding at December 31, 2015.
Capital
The Company's stockholders' equity was $1.7 billion at December 31, 2015, an increase of $12.9 million relative to September 30, 2015. The increase in stockholders' equity was mainly the result of net income of $32.8 million and stock option exercises and stock-based compensation which totaled $448 thousand. These increases were partially offset by dividends declared of $9.1 million and a decline in other comprehensive income of $11.3 million, which was mainly due to a change in the fair value of our available for sale securities portfolio.
Tangible book value per share increased to $7.05 at December 31, 2015 from $6.94 at September 30, 2015. Total goodwill and other intangible assets were $748.1 million at December 31, 2015, a decrease of $3.5 million compared to September 30, 2015. For the quarter ended December 31, 2015, basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding increased to 129.8 million and 130.4 million, respectively, compared to 129.7 million basic shares and 130.2 million diluted shares, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. Total shares outstanding at December 31, 2015 were approximately 130.0 million.
Consolidated tangible equity to tangible assets was 8.18% at December 31, 2015 and the Company's Tier 1 leverage ratio was 8.94%. Sterling National Bank remained well capitalized at December 31, 2015 with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.65%.
