RUTHERFORD, N.J., April 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Blue Foundry Bancorp (NASDAQ:BLFY) (the “Company”), the holding company for Blue Foundry Bank (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $553,000, or $0.02 per diluted common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to a net loss of $745,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
"We continued to make excellent progress on our strategic initiatives during a solid first quarter,” said James D. Nesci, president and chief executive officer. “We were successful in deploying meaningful liquidity as we grew our lending and investment portfolios while asset quality remained strong.”
Highlights for the first quarter of 2022:
- Gross loans grew by $64.1 million, or 5.1%, compared to the linked quarter, excluding Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans, led by commercial real estate products.
- Core deposits increased $64.8 million, or 8.4%, compared to the linked quarter, led by a $62.3 million increase in interest checking. Core deposits now represent 65.3% of total deposits, compared to 50.6% a year ago.
- Realized a $1.0 million or 7.2% sequential improvement in adjusted non-interest expense due to lower professional services, marketing and occupancy.
- Net interest income of $11.9 million, an increase of $2.3 million, or 24.4%, compared to the prior year period.
- $952,000 recovery of provision drove a decline in reserves compared to the prior quarter, resulting in an allowance coverage of 1.00%.
- Net interest margin of 2.62%, a 54 basis point increase from the prior year quarter.
- The rising interest rate environment led to a decline of $10.1 million in accumulated other comprehensive income. The net unrealized gains/loss position of the Company’s available-for-sale investment portfolio deteriorated by $15.7 million, partially offset by $5.6 million of gains on cash flow hedges.
Lending Franchise
The Company continues to diversify its loan portfolio by focusing on growth within commercial real estate and commercial and industrial lending. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company produced substantial originations within its multifamily and non-residential portfolios. This resulted in gross loan growth of $55.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, despite elevated pay downs.

Consolidated Financial Performance:
Quarterly net interest income compared to the first quarter of 2021:
- Net interest income was $11.9 million, an increase of $2.3 million.
- Net interest margin increased by 54 basis points to 2.62%.
- Yield on average interest-earning assets decreased five basis points to 2.98% while the cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased 57 basis points to 0.29%.
- An increase of $139.0 million in average core deposits coupled with a $245.1 million decrease of mostly high-cost average time deposits drove a 56 basis point improvement in the cost of deposits and a 58 basis point improvement in the cost of funds.
Quarterly provision for loan losses:
- A $952,000 recovery of provision for loan losses was recorded for the quarter driven by significant pay downs within the construction and land portfolio coupled with a generally improving economic environment. This recovery contributed to a $960,000 decrease in the allowance for loan losses.
- The allowance for loan losses represented 1.00% of total loans compared to 1.13% at December 31, 2021 and 1.25% at March 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses was 128.5% of non-performing loans compared to 120.4% at December 31, 2021 and 130.4% at March 31, 2021.
Quarterly non-interest expense compared to the first quarter 2021:
- Non-interest expense was $13.2 million, an increase of $847,000. This primarily reflects an increase of $903,000 in compensation as the Company continues to hire and retain talent at competitive rates in the current market.
Quarterly income tax expense compared to the first quarter of 2021:
- Income tax expense was $49,000 compared to an income tax benefit of $551,000 for the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by the $1.9 million improvement in pre-tax income.
Cash and cash equivalents:
- Cash and cash equivalents decreased $91.9 million compared to the linked quarter as the Company deployed cash into loans and invested in primarily high quality liquid securities.
Securities available-for-sale:
- Securities available-for-sale increased $50.7 million to $375.6 million as the Company invested primarily in residential mortgage-backed securities as interest rates rose.
- The rising rate environment contributed to a decline of $15.8 million in the net unrealized gains/loss position of the portfolio.
Gross loans:
- Gross loans held for investment increased $55.0 million to $1.34 billion. Excluding PPP, gross loans increased by $64.1 million.
- Compared to the linked quarter, non-residential loans increased $45.7 million and residential loans increased $18.1 million.
- Organic loan originations totaled $101.6 million, including originations of $48.2 million in non residential loans and $36.5 million in multifamily loans. In addition, $45.8 million of conforming residential mortgages in the Bank’s geographic footprint were purchased during the quarter.
Deposits and borrowings:
- Deposits totaled $1.28 billion, an increase of $36.0 million since December 31, 2021. Core deposits represented 65.3% of total deposits compared to 62.0% at December 31, 2021 and 50.6% at March 31, 2021.
- Borrowing remained flat at $185.5 million.
Asset quality:
- Non-performing loans totaled $10.5 million, or 0.78% of total loans compared to $12.0 million, or 0.94% of total loans at December 31, 2021, and $12.4 million, or 0.95% of total loans at March 31, 2021.
Capital:
- Shareholders’ equity decreased by $9.3 million to $420.2 million. The rising rate environment adversely impacted the Company’s investment portfolio, driving a $10.1 million decline in accumulated other comprehensive income. Quarterly net income partially offset this decline.
- Tangible equity to tangible assets was 21.68% and tangible common equity per shares outstanding was $14.72.
- The Bank’s capital ratios remain above the FDIC’s “well capitalized” standards.

Adjusted Pre-Provision Net Revenue (Non-GAAP)
(Dollars in Thousands) (Unaudited)
This press release contains certain supplemental financial information, described in the table below, which has been determined by methods other than U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") that management uses in its analysis of Blue Foundry's performance. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding Blue Foundry's financial results. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results and Blue Foundry strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
Net income, as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, includes the provision for loan losses, provision for commitments and letters of credit, and income tax expense (benefits) while pre-provision net revenue does not.
