KRNY - Kearny Financial Corp. Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Results and Declaration of Cash Dividend
FAIRFIELD, N.J., April 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kearny Financial Corp. (NASDAQ GS: KRNY) (the “Company”), the holding company of Kearny Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 of $7.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $13.8 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 was impacted by various non-recurring items, as previously disclosed.
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.11 per share, payable on May 22, 2024, to stockholders of record as of May 8, 2024.
Craig L. Montanaro, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Once again uncertainty remains on the forefront of conversations taking place on Main Street and on Wall Street. As a company we manage through such challenging periods by staying true to our guiding principles, which have endured since our founding 140 years ago this month: prudent risk management, conservative posturing and an unwavering commitment to our depositors, borrowers, employees and communities.”
Mr. Montanaro continued, “Despite the media speculation surrounding commercial real estate lending in general, and multifamily lending specifically, we maintain a low loan-to-value, low-vacancy, well-diversified commercial loan portfolio with a long history of outstanding credit performance. We subject each loan to intense scrutiny at underwriting, and on an ongoing basis, and maintain peer-leading levels of commercial loan allowance coverage and regulatory capital, as represented by our 14.7% Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio.”
Balance Sheet
- Total assets were $7.84 billion at March 31, 2024, a decrease of $55.9 million, or 0.7%, from December 31, 2023.
- Investment securities totaled $1.24 billion at March 31, 2024, a decrease of $47.8 million, or 3.7%, from December 31, 2023.
- Loans receivable totaled $5.76 billion at March 31, 2024, an increase of $12.7 million, or 0.2%, from December 31, 2023.
- Bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) totaled $296.5 million at March 31, 2024, an increase of $40.4 million, or 15.8%, from December 31, 2023. The increase for the quarter was largely attributable to the completion of the BOLI restructure initiated in the prior comparative period.
- Deposits were $5.21 billion at March 31, 2024, a decrease of $110.6 million, or 2.1%, from December 31, 2023. Excluding a decrease of $50.2 million in brokered certificates of deposits, deposits decreased $60.4 million, or 1.2%, from December 31, 2023. This decrease in non-brokered deposits was driven by a $48.4 million decline in retail certificates of deposits and a $15.7 million decline in consumer savings deposits, partially offset by growth in other deposit categories.
- Borrowings were $1.72 billion at March 31, 2024, an increase of $55.1 million, or 3.3%, from December 31, 2023.
- At March 31, 2024, the Company maintained available secured borrowing capacity of $1.81 billion, of which $1.47 billion was immediately accessible via in-place collateral and $336.7 million represented the market value of unpledged securities.
Earnings
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
- Net interest margin contracted 5 basis point to 1.89% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The decrease for the quarter was driven by an increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits and a decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets, partially offset by a higher yield on interest-earning assets and a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing borrowings.
- For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, net interest income decreased $1.5 million to $34.3 million from $35.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. Included in net interest income for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, was purchase accounting accretion of $734,000 and $640,000, and loan prepayment penalty income of $61,000 and $185,000.
Non-Interest Income
- Non-interest income increased $20.2 million to income of $4.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, from a loss of $16.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to a pre-tax loss of $18.1 million related to the investment securities portfolio repositioning executed during the prior comparative period.
- Income from BOLI increased $1.8 million to $3.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 from $1.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. BOLI income included a $631,000 non-recurring payment on one life insurance policy in the current period, while BOLI income was reduced by non-recurring exchange charges of $573,000 in the prior comparative period. Excluding these non-recurring items, BOLI income improved by $673,000 resulting from the previously mentioned BOLI restructure.
- Loss on sale of loans was $712,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to a gain on sale of loans of $104,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The loss in the current period was the result of the sale of three related nonperforming commercial real estate loans held-for-sale.
Non-Interest Expense
- For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, non-interest expense decreased $708,000, or 2.4%, to $29.1 million from $29.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, primarily driven by a decrease in salary and benefits expense and other expense.
- Salary and benefits expense decreased $371,000 primarily attributable to a non-recurring decrease of $679,000 in stock-based compensation, partially offset by an increase of $374,000 in payroll taxes associated with the start of the new calendar year.
- Other expense decreased $522,000 primarily driven by a $637,000 decrease in OREO expense following the sale of the Company’s sole OREO asset, partially offset by an increase of $288,000 in the provision for credit losses on off balance sheet commitments.
Income Taxes
- Income tax expense totaled $1.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $1.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in income tax expense was largely due to the discrete tax expense associated with the BOLI restructure recognized in the prior comparative period, partially offset by higher pre-tax income, due primarily to realized losses on the sale of securities in the prior comparative period.
Asset Quality
- The balance of non-performing assets decreased $10.2 million to $39.5 million, or 0.50% of total assets, at March 31, 2024, from $49.8 million, or 0.63% of total assets, at December 31, 2023. This decrease was driven by the January 2024 sale of three related non-performing commercial real estate loans held-for-sale and the Company’s sole OREO asset.
- Net charge-offs totaled $286,000, or 0.02% of average loans, on an annualized basis, for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to $4.1 million, or 0.29% of average loans, on an annualized basis, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.
- For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $349,000, compared to $2.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The provision for credit loss expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 was primarily driven by loan growth.
- The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) was $44.9 million, or 0.78% of total loans, at March 31, 2024 and unchanged from December 31, 2023.
Capital
- For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, book value per share increased $0.02, or 0.2%, to $13.18 while tangible book value per share increased $0.02, or 0.2%, to $9.87.
- At March 31, 2024, total stockholders’ equity included after-tax net unrealized losses on securities available for sale of $95.0 million, partially offset by after-tax unrealized gains on derivatives of $31.3 million. After-tax net unrecognized losses on securities held to maturity of $11.4 million were not reflected in total stockholders’ equity.
- At March 31, 2024, the Company’s tangible equity to tangible assets ratio equaled 8.34% and the regulatory capital ratios of both the Company and the Bank were in excess of the levels required by federal banking regulators to be classified as “well-capitalized” under regulatory guidelines.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of certain financial measures calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) (as reported) and non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures provide additional information which allow readers to evaluate the ongoing performance of the Company. They are not a substitute for GAAP measures; they should be read and used in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financial information. In all cases, it should be understood that non-GAAP per share measures do not depict amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders.
