BankFinancial Corporation Reports Financial Results for the Second Quarter 2022 and Will Host Conference Call and Webcast on Monday, August 1, 2022


BURR RIDGE, Ill., July 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BankFinancial Corporation (Nasdaq – BFIN) (the “BankFinancial”) filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, and a Quarterly Financial and Statistical Supplement in Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) today.

BankFinancial reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022, of $2.6 million, or $0.19 per common share, compared to net income of $1.9 million, or $0.13 per common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021. At June 30, 2022, BankFinancial had total assets of $1.645 billion, total loans of $1.143 billion, total deposits of $1.445 billion and stockholders' equity of $154 million.

Total net loans increased by $87.7 million (8.3%) during the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Total multi-family mortgage loans increased by $50.2 million (11.5%), total commercial loans and leases increased by $23.4 million (4.7%) and nonresidential real estate loans increased by $16.2 million (16.2%). Yields on loan originations were 4.87% in the second quarter of 2022, compared to 4.56% in the first quarter of 2022, reflecting higher market yields on new commercial credit originations and the increase in the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate during the first half of 2022. 

Total deposits decreased by $16.9 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to decreases in commercial deposit account balances and retail certificate of deposit accounts, partially offset by increases in interest-bearing deposit account balances. 

The Company’s ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans remained stable at 0.15% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to 0.18% as of March 31, 2022. Our allowance for loan losses was 0.63% of total loans as of June 30, 2022.

The Company’s capital position remained strong, with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.48% as of June 30, 2022. The Company repurchased 25,000 of its common shares during the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The Company’s tangible book value per common share increased to $11.72 per share as of June 30, 2022.

The Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Quarterly Financial and Statistical Supplement will be available today on BankFinancial's website, www.bankfinancial.com on the “Investor Relations” page, and through the EDGAR database on the SEC's website, www.sec.gov.
