PCSB Financial Corporation Announces Results for Three Months Ended September 30, 2017


YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, NY, Oct. 26, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PCSB Financial Corporation (the “Company”) (NASDAQ:PCSB), parent of PCSB Bank (the "Bank"), today announced net income of $1.8 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a net loss of $1.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 and net income of $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The $1.8 million loss in the quarter ended June 30, 2017 primarily reflects the Company’s $5.0 million pre-tax contribution to PCSB Community Foundation.

Effective April 20, 2017, PCSB Bank completed its mutual-to-stock conversion and the Company completed its related initial public offering. Accordingly, 2016 financial results are for the Bank only.

President’s Comments
“We continue to build on our positive momentum over the past couple of years, starting with the acquisition of CMS Bank in 2015 and our successful initial public offering earlier this year,” said Joseph Roberto, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of PCSB Financial Corporation.  “These key initiatives have contributed to the Company’s solid core earnings performance, exhibited through the growth in net interest income of 12.5% from a year ago and 5.0% from the quarter ended June 30, 2017.”

“Our strategy moving forward is to continue to leverage the capital raised in a safe and disciplined way; allowing for sustained growth in profitability in order to create maximum value for our shareholders.  Our first Annual Meeting as a public company will be held on November 15th where I look forward to meeting our shareholders.”

Income Statement Summary
Net interest income increased $1.1 million, or 12.5%, to $9.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016 and increased $471,000, or 5.0%, compared to the previous quarter.  Net interest income increased as a result of an increase in the average balances of loans and investment securities outstanding, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of advances from Federal Home Loan Bank and the average rate paid on advances.  The net interest margin was 2.89% for both the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and increased from 2.81% for the three months ended June 30, 2017. 

The provision for loan losses increased $109,000 to $135,000 for the three months September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 due to loan portfolio growth.  The Company did not record a provision in the three months ended June 30, 2017.  Charge-offs, net of recoveries, were $17,000 and $3,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and recoveries net of charge-offs was $321,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017.  Loans classified as substandard and doubtful decreased slightly to $24.6 million at September 30, 2017 from $25.1 million at June 30, 2017 and decreased $3.5 million from $28.1 million at September 30, 2016. 

Noninterest income increased by $162,000 to $714,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 and increased $67,000 from the three months ended June 30, 2017, primarily driven by $173,000 in gains on sale of securities recognized in the current period.

Noninterest expense increased $696,000 to $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 and decreased $5.0 million from the three months ended June 30, 2017. The $696,000 increase was caused primarily by increases in salaries and employee benefits of $563,000, other operating expenses of $154,000 and professional fees of $104,000, partially offset by a decrease in FDIC assessment of $137,000.  The increase in salaries and benefits was due primarily to a $290,000 increase in retirement expenses, including ESOP expense which commenced in April 2017, and a $226,000 increase in salaries expense due to the hiring of additional employees.  The increase in other operating expenses was caused primarily by increases in Director and Officer insurance and data processing fees; and the increase in professional fees was due primarily to expenses related to being a public company.  The $5.0 million decrease from the three months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to the $5.0 million charitable foundation contribution recorded in the previous quarter.

Income tax expense increased $158,000 to $805,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 and was caused by the $458,000 increase in pre-tax income.  The Company recorded a $1.0 million income tax benefit for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 as the Company had a pre-tax loss of $2.8 million.  The effective income tax rate was 31.4% and 30.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Balance Sheet Summary

Total assets decreased $14.8 million to $1.41 billion at September 30, 2017 from $1.43 billion at June 30, 2017.  This decrease was primarily due to decreases of $25.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $19.6 million in total investment securities, partially offset by an increase of $30.3 million in net loans receivable. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents and investment securities was primarily utilized to fund the growth in the loan portfolio and the decrease in liabilities. The $30.3 million increase in net loans was primarily due to increases of $32.3 million in commercial mortgage loans and $1.7 million in other loans secured, partially offset by decreases of $2.2 million in residential mortgage loans and $1.9 million in commercial loans.

Total liabilities decreased $17.0 million to $1.13 billion at September 30, 2017 from $1.15 billion at June 30, 2017.  This decrease was primarily due to decreases of $6.8 million in advances from FHLB, $6.8 million in total deposits and $3.1 million in mortgage escrow funds. 

Total shareholders’ equity increased $2.2 million to $282.1 million at September 30, 2017 from $279.8 million at June 30, 2017.  This increase was primarily due to net income of $1.8 million and a $607,000 reduction in unearned ESOP shares for plan shares earned during the period.  At September 30, 2017 the Company’s book value per share and tangible book value per share were $15.53 and $15.16, respectively, compared to $15.41 and $15.04, respectively, at June 30, 2017.  At September 30, 2017, the Bank was considered “well capitalized” under applicable regulatory guidelines.

(1) Performance ratios are annualized. 
(2) Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as noninterest expense, less certain nonrecurring items, divided by our operating revenue, which is equal to net interest income plus non-interest income excluding certain nonrecurring items. In our judgment, the adjustments made to operating revenue allow investors and analysts to better assess our operating expenses in relation to our core operating revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with certain one-time items and other discrete items that are unrelated to our core business. 
(3) Represents average shareholders' equity divided by average total assets. 
(4) Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP measure and equals total shareholders’ equity, less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by shares outstanding.  We believe this disclosure may be meaningful to those investors who seek to evaluate our equity without giving effect to goodwill and other intangible assets. 
(5) Represents Bank ratios.
