Third Quarter 2021 Highlights
- Net income of $14.4 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared to $10.4 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021 and $12.5 million, or $0.40 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2020.

Priscilla Sims Brown, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am pleased with our third quarter results which position us to achieve our revised full year guidance as we delivered strong results across the dimensions of revenue, profitability, credit quality, and foundational growth drivers such as PACE assessments and deposits. I am also encouraged that we can generate sustained and profitable growth as we begin the implementation of our strategic initiatives. During the third quarter, we grew PACE assessments 15% to $627 million as compared to the second quarter of 2021, resulting in net growth in our combined lending and PACE portfolio. Importantly, the headwinds that we have experienced in our loan portfolio continued to diminish through the third quarter positioning the Bank for a return to organic loan growth in the year ahead. Our deposit franchise also continued its growth trajectory, gaining 5.3% from the previous quarter while our cost of deposits declined to 9 basis points, one of the lowest in the industry. Contributing to our low cost of funds was the strong growth in political deposits which increased by almost $250 million to $1 billion on a linked quarter basis.”
Brown added, “We have very recently launched a series of growth initiatives designed to fuel our loan and trust growth while staying true to our mission and solidifying our position as America’s Socially Responsible Bank. Our initiatives are focused on four pillars including the building of our business through our mission, improving our focus on and deepening insights of our core customers, developing and expanding our product expertise to grow our lending platform and trust businesses, and improving our data and technology. Also central to our growth initiatives is a disciplined M&A strategy where our recently announced acquisition of ABOC will allow us to expand into the third largest MSA in the U.S. as we offer larger-scale loans to a client base that has historically proven a need for them, cross-market our services to ABOC’s customer base, and be able to reach new, untapped business in the greater Chicago and Midwestern markets.”

Results of Operations, Quarter Ended September 30, 2021
Net income for the third quarter of 2021 was $14.4 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared to $10.4 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021 and $12.5 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020. The $4.0 million increase for the third quarter of 2021 was primarily due to a $2.3 million release of provision for loan losses compared to a $1.7 million provision expense in the preceding quarter, as well as $1.4 million increase in net interest income and a $1.4 million increase in non-interest income. These increases were partially offset by a $1.6 million increase in non-interest expense and a $1.1 million increase in income tax expense.
Core net income (non-GAAP)2 for the third quarter of 2021 was $14.4 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared to $10.2 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021 and $16.8 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020. Excluded from core net income for the third quarter of 2021 was $0.4 million of non-interest income gains on the sale of securities and $0.4 million of non-interest expenses related to ABOC, and for the second quarter of 2021 was $0.3 million of non-interest income gains on the sale of securities. Excluded from core net income for the third quarter of 2020 was $0.6 million of non-interest income gains on the sale of securities, $6.3 million in branch closure expenses, and other adjustments, including the tax effect of such adjustments.
Net interest income was $43.4 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to $42.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $45.2 million for the third quarter of 2020. The $1.4 million increase from the preceding quarter reflected higher income on securities and lower interest expense on deposits, offset by a decrease in interest income as average loans decreased $75.2 million from the prepayment and paydowns of residential and commercial real estate loans. The $1.8 million decrease from the third quarter of 2020 was primarily attributable to a decrease in average loans of $481.6 million from the prepayment of residential and commercial loans and a 13 basis point decrease in yield due to lower yields on originations, partially offset by higher income on securities and lower interest expense on deposits.
Net interest margin was 2.70% for the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of five basis points from 2.75% in the second quarter of 2021, and a decrease of 18 basis points from 2.88% in the third quarter of 2020. The accretion of the loan mark from the loans acquired in the New Resource Bank acquisition contributed one basis point to our net interest margin in the third quarter of 2021, compared to two basis points in the second quarter of 2021 and third quarter of 2020. Prepayment penalties earned in loan income contributed one basis point to our net interest margin in the third quarter of 2021, compared to three basis points in the second quarter of 2021 and seven basis points in the third quarter of 2020.
Provision for loan losses totaled a recovery of $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2021 compared to an expense of $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2021 and an expense of $3.4 million for the third quarter of 2020, respectively. The recovery in the third quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by a decrease in allowance primarily driven by improvement in loss and qualitative factors, improved credit quality, and lower loan balances.
Non-interest income was $6.7 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2021 and $12.8 million for the third quarter in 2020. This increase of $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to the preceding quarter, was primarily due to the expected decrease in equity method investment losses related to investments in solar initiatives. The decrease of $6.1 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the corresponding quarter in 2020 was primarily due to a loss of $0.5 million related to equity investments in solar initiatives in the third quarter of 2021 compared to a $4.3 million gain in the third quarter in 2020. The Company primarily recognized the benefit of the tax credits in 2020, the initial year of the equity investment. We expect minimal losses in equity method investments during the remainder of 2021. These impacts do not include any benefits of new solar equity investments that we may make in the future.
Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2021 was $33.0 million, an increase of $1.6 million from the second quarter of 2021 and a decrease of $4.9 million from the third quarter of 2020. The increase of $1.6 million from the preceding quarter includes $0.4 million of ABOC related costs. The remaining difference was primarily due to a $1.2 million increase to data processing related to the full impact of our Trust Department outsourced operation, a $0.5 million increase to compensation and employee benefits, and a $0.4 million increase in reserves for unused loan commitments, partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in professional services expense, net of ABOC related deal costs. The decrease of $4.9 million from the third quarter of 2020 is due to a decrease in occupancy and depreciation expenses related to branch closures in 2020.
Our provision for income tax expense was $4.9 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $4.3 million for the third quarter of 2020. Our effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2021 was 25.4%, compared to 26.9% for the second quarter of 2021 and 25.4% for the third quarter of 2020.

Results of Operations, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $37.0 million, or $1.17 per average diluted share, compared to $32.4 million, or $1.04 per average diluted share, for same period in 2020. The $4.6 million increase was primarily due to a $3.9 million recovery of provision for loan loss compared to a $20.2 million provision for loan loss for the same period in 2020, as well as a $4.0 million decrease in non-interest expense. This recovery of provision was partially offset by a $14.6 million decrease in non-interest income and a $7.2 million decrease in net interest income.
Core net income (non-GAAP) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $37.6 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, compared to $36.5 million or $1.17 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Core net income for the first nine months of 2021 excludes severance costs, non-interest income gains on the sale of securities, and the tax effect of such adjustments.
Net interest income was $127.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $134.4 million for the same period in 2020. This decrease of $7.2 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in average loans of $354.2 million and lower yields earned on interest bearing assets. These impacts are partially offset by an increase in average securities of $651.8 million, and a decrease in average rates paid on deposits.
Provision for loan losses totaled a recovery of $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to an expense of $20.2 million for the same period in 2020. The recovery for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily driven by a release of allowance for loan loss due to improvement in loss rate and other qualitative factors, improved credit quality, and lower loan balances.
Non-interest income was $16.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $30.6 million for the same period in 2020, a decrease of $14.6 million. This decrease is primarily due to the tax credits on equity investment projects being in a loss position compared to a gain position in the prior year, as well as a $1.4 million gain on the sale of a branch reported in other non-interest income in the prior year, and a $1.2 million decrease in Trust Department fees primarily attributed to the run-off of the ULTRA real estate fund, which ceased earning revenues in 2020.
Non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $97.2 million, a decrease of $4.0 million from $101.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a $9.4 million decrease in occupancy and depreciation expense due to the branch closures in the prior year and lower rent expense in the current year, offset by a $2.0 million increase in professional fees mainly related to our holding company formation and chief executive officer search, a $2.7 million increase in data processing mainly related to the modernization of our Trust Department and increased transaction processing costs post COVID-19, and a $0.9 million increase in other expenses mainly related to insurance costs, reserves for unused loan commitments, and foreclosure recoveries that were recognized in the prior year.
We had income tax expense of $12.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $11.1 million for the same period in 2020. Our effective tax rate was 25.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 25.5% for the same period in 2020.
Financial Condition
Total assets were $6.9 billion at September 30, 2021, compared to $6.0 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase of $0.9 billion was driven primarily by a $651.5 million increase in cash and cash equivalents and a $646.3 million increase in investment securities, of which $81.4 million was from PACE assessments, which was partially offset by a $359.8 million decrease in loans receivable, net.
Total loans, net at September 30, 2021 were $3.1 billion, a decrease of $359.8 million, or 14.0% annualized, compared to December 31, 2020. The decline in loans was primarily driven by a $205.8 million decrease in residential loans due to increased refinancing activity by existing customers, a $146.8 million decrease in commercial real estate and multifamily loans due to refinancing activity by existing customers and payoffs, and a $48.8 million decrease in C&I loans due to payoffs. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $16.7 million in loans remaining on a payment deferral program and still accruing interest, the majority of which represent two performing commercial loans requesting additional deferrals.
Deposits at September 30, 2021 were $6.2 billion, an increase of $885.8 million, or 22.2% annualized, as compared to $5.3 billion as of December 31, 2020. Deposits held by politically active customers, such as campaigns, PACs, advocacy-based organizations, and state and national party committees were $1.0 billion as of September 30, 2021, an increase of $411.9 million compared to $602.8 million as of December 31, 2020. Noninterest-bearing deposits represent 52% of average deposits and 51% of ending deposits for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, contributing to an average cost of deposits of 0.09% in the third quarter of 2021, a one basis point decrease from the preceding quarter.
Nonperforming assets totaled $67.8 million, or 0.99% of period-end total assets at September 30, 2021, a decrease of $14.4 million, compared with $82.2 million, or 1.38% of period-end total assets at December 31, 2020. The decrease in non-performing assets at September 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020 was primarily driven by the payoff of $11.2 million of non-accruing construction loans and $3.5 million of multifamily loans, and the decrease of $1.4 million of loans 90 days past due and accruing, partially offset by an increase of $2.1 million of Troubled Debt Restructurings.
The allowance for loan losses decreased $5.7 million to $35.9 million at September 30, 2021 from $41.6 million at December 31, 2020, primarily due to decreases in loan balances. At September 30, 2021, we had $67.5 million of impaired loans for which a specific allowance of $6.5 million was made, compared to $80.5 million of impaired loans at December 31, 2020 for which a specific allowance of $6.2 million was made. The ratio of allowance to total loans was 1.15% at September 30, 2021 and 1.19% at December 31, 2020.
Capital
As of September 30, 2021, our Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio was 13.98%, Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 14.99%, and Tier-1 Leverage Capital Ratio was 7.85%, compared to 13.11%, 14.25% and 7.97%, respectively, as of December 31, 2020. Stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2021 was $556.4 million, compared to $535.8 million at December 31, 2020. The increase in stockholders’ equity was driven by $37.0 million of net income, partially offset by a $5.8 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income due to the mark to market on our securities portfolio and $3.1 million decrease in additional paid-in capital.
Our tangible book value per share was $17.33 as of September 30, 2021 compared to $16.66 as of December 31, 2020.

Amalgamated Bank was formed in 1923 as Amalgamated Bank of New York by the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, one of the country's oldest labor unions. Amalgamated Bank provides commercial banking and trust services nationally and offers a full range of products and services to both commercial and retail customers.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release (and the accompanying financial information and tables) refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures including, without limitation, “Core operating revenue,” “Core non-interest expense,” “Core net income,” “Tangible common equity,” “Average tangible common equity,” “Core return on average assets,” “Core return on average tangible common equity,” and “Core efficiency ratio.”
Our management utilizes this information to compare our operating performance for September 30, 2021 versus certain periods in 2021 and 2020 and to prepare internal projections. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of our operating performance. In addition, because intangible assets such as goodwill and other discrete items unrelated to our core business, which are excluded, vary extensively from company to company, we believe that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare our results to those of other companies.
The presentation of non-GAAP financial information, however, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. We strongly encourage readers to review the GAAP financial measures included in this release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial disclosures to comparable GAAP measures found in this release are set forth in the final pages of this release and also may be viewed on our website, amalgamatedbank.com.
Terminology
Certain terms used in this release are defined as follows:
“Core operating revenue” is defined as total net interest income plus non-interest income excluding gains and losses on sales of securities and gains on the sale of owned property. We believe the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is the total of net interest income and non-interest income.
“Core non-interest expense” is defined as total non-interest expense excluding costs related to branch closures and restructuring/severance costs. We believe the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total non-interest expense.
“Core net income” is defined as net income after tax excluding gains and losses on sales of securities, gains on the sale of owned property, costs related to branch closures, restructuring/severance costs, acquisition costs, and taxes on notable pre-tax items. We believe the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is net income.
“Tangible common equity” and “Tangible book value” are defined as stockholders’ equity excluding, as applicable, minority interests, preferred stock, goodwill and core deposit intangibles. We believe that the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total stockholders’ equity.
“Core return on average assets” is defined as “Core net income” divided by average total assets. We believe the most directly comparable performance ratio derived from GAAP financial measures is return on average assets calculated by dividing net income by average total assets.
“Core return on average tangible common equity” is defined as “Core net income” divided by “Average tangible common equity.” We believe the most directly comparable performance ratio derived from GAAP financial measures is return on average equity calculated by dividing net income by average total stockholders’ equity.
“Core efficiency ratio” is defined as “Core non-interest expense” divided by “Core operating revenue.” We believe the most directly comparable performance ratio derived from GAAP financial measures is an efficiency ratio calculated by dividing total non-interest expense by the sum of net interest income and total non-interest income.
