The Company's fourth quarter and full year 2017 financial results included:
• Net loss for the 2017 fourth quarter of $6.9 million, or $0.35 per diluted share. Inclusive of:
- Charge of $7.6 million, or $0.39 per share, from the reduction to net deferred tax assets related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”).
- Charge of $5.2 million, after tax, or $0.26 per share, from restructuring costs.

• Net income for the full year 2017, excluding the impact related to the Tax Act and restructuring costs, was $33.3 million, or $1.68 per diluted share.
• Net interest income for the 2017 fourth quarter increased $3.4 million over 2016 to $33.6 million, with a net interest margin of 3.36%.
• Total assets of $4.4 billion at December 31, 2017, 3% higher than September 30, 2017 and 9% higher than December 31, 2016.
• Loan growth of $502 million, or 19%, compared to December 31, 2016, and $181 million, or 25% annualized, from September 30, 2017.
• Deposit growth of $409 million, or 14%, compared to December 31, 2016, and $131 million, or 16% annualized, from September 30, 2017.
• Non-public, non-brokered deposit growth of $384 million, or 18%, compared to December 31, 2016.
• Continued solid asset quality metrics and reserve coverage.
• All capital ratios exceed the fully phased in requirements of Basel III rules.
• Declared a dividend of $0.23 during the quarter.
Commenting on the fourth quarter results, Kevin O’Connor, President and CEO said, “The reported financial results for 2017 and the quarter reflect declines from the previous year due primarily to the Tax Act, our previously announced branch network streamlining, and increased credit costs. However, when adjusted for these items, the Company’s underlying trends are favorable. Loan and deposit growth continued the positive momentum we have experienced during 2017, and the fourth quarter showed the highest increase in both dollars and rate of growth for the year. Net interest income and margin improved in the quarter and for the year, which coupled with the 13% year over year increase in non-interest income, contributed to record revenues of $145 million. Our expense metrics continued to reflect constructive progress on expense control as we continually strive for improvements in operating leverage. Finally, coincident with the change in our charter from a national bank to a New York chartered commercial bank, we rebranded the Bank officially as BNB Bank. These achievements, dampened somewhat by the factors discussed above, were extremely encouraging, and we look forward to building on the many positive strides taken in 2017.”
Net Interest Income
Interest income was $40.0 million in fourth quarter 2017, an increase of $1.5 million compared with third quarter 2017, driven primarily by organic growth in loans and partially offset by a decrease in the average securities portfolio. Interest expense was $6.4 million in fourth quarter 2017, an increase of $0.3 million compared with third quarter 2017, due to increases in average interest bearing liabilities and average cost of deposits.
“Although the net interest margin declined versus 2016, our reported net interest margin has improved over the last two quarters. Our asset yields have stabilized and are beginning to trend higher while we have been able to minimize the impact of rising rates on our funding costs. Our success in growing deposits and maintaining our DDA percentage at 40% enables us to maintain low funding costs and grow the net interest margin,” stated Mr. O’Connor.
“Over the course of 2017, the Federal Reserve rate increases have failed to generate corresponding rate increases in the longer end of the yield curve. However, beginning at December 31, 2017, longer-term treasury rates have risen. This could signal greater optimism in the economy, attributable to several factors, including the recently passed tax cuts,” noted Mr. O’Connor.
Provision for Loan Losses
Provision for loan losses was $10.4 million for the 2017 fourth quarter, $9.0 million higher than the 2016 fourth quarter, and $14.1 million for the full year 2017, $8.5 million higher than the full year 2016. The Company recognized net charge-offs of $8.0 million in the 2017 fourth quarter, compared to net recoveries of $0.2 million for the 2016 fourth quarter. The Company recognized net charge-offs of $8.2 million for the full year 2017, compared to net charge-offs of $0.4 million for the full year 2016. “This quarter’s elevated credit costs resulted primarily from the charge-off of loans and specific reserves associated with two specific relationships, coupled with the need to provide coverage for the sizable fourth quarter loan growth. In analyzing this quarter’s charge-offs, we believe there are factors, both internal and external to these borrowers, which were unique to the relationships. We consider the losses incurred as isolated and not indicative of any negative trends within either the borrowers’ industries or the Company’s overall credit profile,” commented Mr. O’Connor.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income was $4.5 million for the fourth quarter 2017, $0.8 million higher than fourth quarter 2016, driven primarily by higher other operating income and service charges and other fees, partially offset by net securities losses and lower gain on sale of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans. Non-interest income was $18.1 million for the full year 2017, $2.1 million higher than full year 2016, primarily due to higher gain on sale of SBA loans, service charges and other fees, and title fee income.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense for the 2017 fourth quarter increased to $29.2 million from $18.5 million in 2016 fourth quarter. Non-interest expense for the full year 2017 increased to $91.7 million from $77.1 million in full year 2016. The increases in the fourth quarter and full year are primarily due to restructuring costs related to branch restructuring and charter conversion, and growth in salaries and employee benefits expense, partially offset by a decrease in amortization of other intangible assets. Excluding the impact of these restructuring costs, total non-interest expense in the fourth quarter 2017 would have been $21.1 million. Mr. O’Connor commented, “This quarter we executed on two major initiatives, identifying and executing a branch rationalization strategy and the finalization of our charter conversion from a national bank to a New York chartered commercial bank. While each had a different rationale, together they create a bank better prepared for 2018 and beyond. The fourth quarter results reflected a restructuring charge of $8.0 million to account for costs associated with these items, with $7.7 million attributable to the branches. The projected 2018 pre-tax cost savings of $4 million should result in an expected payback period of no more than 24 months.”
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $5.4 million in fourth quarter 2017, and $18.9 million in full year 2017, which included a $7.6 million charge to write-down the Company’s deferred tax assets due to the enactment of the Tax Act in fourth quarter 2017. The Company estimates it will record income tax at an effective tax rate of approximately 23% in 2018.
Balance Sheet and Asset Quality
Total assets were $4.4 billion at December 31, 2017, $145.7 million higher than September 30, 2017 and $375.4 million higher than December 31, 2016. Total loans at December 31, 2017 of $3.1 billion reflect growth of $502.3 million, or 19%, over December 31, 2016. Deposits totaled $3.3 billion at December 31, 2017, an increase of $408.5 million over December 31, 2016. Demand deposits increased $187.4 million year-over-year to $1.3 billion at December 31, 2017, representing 40% of total deposits.
Asset quality measures remained solid, as non-performing assets, comprised exclusively of non-performing loans, were $7.0 million, or 0.16% of total assets, and 0.22% of total loans at December 31, 2017, compared to $1.2 million, or 0.03% of total assets, and 0.05% of total loans at December 31, 2016. Loans 30 to 89 days past due increased $1.5 million to $3.6 million at December 31, 2017, with $2.4 million representing acquired loans. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing at December 31, 2017 and 2016 were comprised of acquired loans of $1.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
The allowance for loan losses increased $5.8 million to $31.7 million at December 31, 2017 from $25.9 million as of December 31, 2016. The allowance as a percentage of loans was 1.02% at December 31, 2017, compared to 1.00% at December 31, 2016. The increase in the allowance for loan losses is primarily due to portfolio growth, and the impact of fourth quarter 2017 charge-offs and specific reserves.
Stockholders’ equity grew $21.2 million to $429.2 million at December 31, 2017, compared to $408.0 million at December 31, 2016. The growth reflects earnings, conversions of trust preferred securities to shares of common stock and the dividend reinvestment plan, partially offset by shareholders' dividends and a decrease in the fair value of available for sale investment securities. Tangible book value per share increased $0.63 to $16.14 at December 31, 2017, compared to $15.51 at December 31, 2016. The Company's capital ratios exceed all fully phased in capital requirements under the Basel III rules and the Bank remains classified as well capitalized.

| Reconciliation of as reported (GAAP) and non-GAAP financial measures | ||||||||||||||
| The tables below provide a reconciliation of generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") (as reported) and non-GAAP financial measures. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are required to be disclosed in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the United States. The Company’s management believes the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with a greater understanding of the Company’s operating results in addition to the results measured in accordance with GAAP. While management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance, this information should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, or considered to be more important than financial results determined in accordance with GAAP. | ||||||||||||||
