Our strategic investments have resulted in significant growth in originated loans for the quarter and the six-months ended June 30, 2019, as well as significant deposit growth in business accounts.” Mr. Klein continued, “Our successes from our strategic investments continue to be challenged by a highly competitive interest rate environment in our marketplace, primarily related to deposit gathering, and more recently in loan rates and terms.” Mr. Klein noted, “Our deployment of capital in high quality commercial loans, securities, and stock repurchases, continues to bring longer-term value to our stockholders.”
Mr. Klein further noted, “I'm pleased to announce that the Board of Directors has declared a dividend of to $0.11 per common share, payable on August 21, 2019, to stockholders of record on August 7, 2019.”
Results of Operations
Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
Net income was $17.0 million and $21.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and June 30, 2018, respectively. Significant variances from the comparable prior year period are as follows: an $825,000 decrease in net interest income, a $154,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses, a $1.0 million increase in non-interest income, a $3.8 million increase in non-interest expense, and a $653,000 increase in income tax expense.
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2019, decreased $825,000, or 1.5%, to $54.5 million, from $55.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, as a 30 basis point decrease in our net interest margin to 2.59% more than offset a $380.8 million, or 9.9%, increase in our average interest-earning assets. The decrease in net interest margin was primarily due to the increased cost of our interest-bearing liabilities, which increased 47 basis points to 1.50% for the six months ended June 30, 2019, from 1.03% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in our average interest-earning assets was primarily due to increases in average loans outstanding of $86.4 million, average mortgage-backed securities of $167.3 million, and average other securities of $127.9 million. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 included loan prepayment income of $594,000 as compared to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Yields earned on interest-earning assets increased 10 basis points to 3.79% for the six months ended June 30, 2019, from 3.69% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, driven by higher yields on loans and securities.
The provision for loan losses decreased by $154,000 to $550,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $704,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, as an improvement in historical loss rates and environmental factors offset loan growth and higher net charge-offs. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2019, were $215,000 compared to net recoveries of $18,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Non-interest income increased $1.0 million, or 21.3%, to $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, from $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in gains on securities transactions, net. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, securities gains, net, included gains of $1.4 million related to the Company’s trading portfolio, compared to gains of $302,000 in the comparative prior year period. The trading portfolio is utilized to fund the Company’s deferred compensation obligation to certain employees and directors of the Company's deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”). The participants of this Plan, at their election, defer a portion of their compensation. Gains and losses on trading securities have no effect on net income since participants benefit from, and bear the full risk of, changes in the trading securities market values. Therefore, the Company records an equal and offsetting amount in compensation expense, reflecting the change in the Company’s obligations under the Plan.
Non-interest expense increased $3.8 million, or 11.1%, to $38.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $34.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This is due primarily to a $2.6 million increase in employee compensation and benefits, $1.1 million of which is related to the Company's deferred compensation plan, which is described above and has no effect on net income, with the remainder attributable to increased costs associated with new hires related to a branch opening and new lending personnel, merit increases effective January 1, 2019, and higher medical benefit costs. Additionally, there was a $356,000 increase in occupancy costs, primarily attributable to higher rent expense related to a new branch opening, an increase of $326,000 in data processing costs, and an increase of $841,000 in advertising expense attributable to the timing of advertising programs and increased expenditure focused on driving growth. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $114,000 in professional fees and $217,000 in other expense. Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 included approximately $1.4 million of equity award expense related to equity awards granted on June 11, 2014, which vested in equal installments over a five year period beginning one year from the date of grant and were fully vested on June 11, 2019.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019, was 22.4% compared to 16.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, the increase being primarily due to lower excess tax benefits related to the exercise or vesting of equity awards. Excess tax benefits were $286,000 and $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and June 30, 2018, respectively. Excess tax benefits will fluctuate throughout the year based on the Company's stock price and timing of employee stock option exercises and vesting of other share-based awards.
On May 15, 2019 New Jersey issued a tax technical bulletin which gave guidance on which entities are to be included in a combined group. Real Estate Investment Trusts and Investment Companies will be excluded from the combined group. They will continue to file separate company New Jersey tax returns. As a result of this guidance the Company recorded an additional $211,000 of state tax expense net of federal benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The $211,000 increase was comprised of $425,000 of current tax expense, partially offset by a write-up of deferred tax assets of $214,000.
Subsequent Events
In July 2019, two loans that had been previously charged-off, one in full and one partly charged-off and had cash payments for interest applied to principal, were repaid in full, resulting in an aggregate recovery of approximately $2.3 million, which will be recognized in the third quarter of 2019 through the allowance for loan losses and interest income. Additionally, the Company expects to receive bank owned life insurance proceeds in excess of the cash surrender value of the related policies of approximately $2.4 million, which will also be recognized in the third quarter of 2019.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
Net income was $8.2 million and $10.6 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2019, and June 30, 2018, respectively. Significant variances from the comparable prior year quarter are as follows: a $611,000 decrease in net interest income, a $179,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses, a $1.7 million increase in non-interest expense, and a $387,000 increase in income tax expense.
Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, decreased $611,000, or 2.2%, as a 30 basis point decrease in our net interest margin to 2.55% from 2.85% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, more than offset a $371.5 million, or 9.5%, increase in our average interest-earning assets. The decrease in net interest margin was primarily due to the increased cost of our interest-bearing liabilities, which increased 45 basis points to 1.53% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, from 1.08% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The increase in average interest-earning assets was primarily due to increases in average loans outstanding of $86.8 million, average mortgage-backed securities of $192.9 million, and average other securities of $100.6 million, partially offset by an $8.2 million decrease in average interest-earning deposits in financial institutions. Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, included loan prepayment income of $174,000 as compared to $479,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. Yields earned on interest-earning assets increased eight basis points to 3.77% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, from 3.69% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, driven by higher yields on loans and securities.
The provision for loan losses decreased by $179,000 to $491,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, from $670,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, as an improvement in historical loss rates and environmental factors offset an increase from loan growth and higher net charge-offs. Net charge-offs were $145,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to net recoveries of $40,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
Non-interest income was $2.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to $2.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
Non-interest expense increased $1.7 million, or 10.0%, to $18.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, from $17.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The increase was due primarily to an increase of $716,000 in compensation and employee benefits, primarily due to increased salary expense associated with new hires related to a branch opening and new lending personnel, and merit increases effective January 1, 2019. Additionally, there were increases of $170,000 in occupancy costs, primarily attributable to higher rent expense, $287,000 in data processing costs, and $688,000 in advertising expense, due in part to the timing of advertising programs and increased expenditure focused on driving growth. Non-interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 included approximately $625,000 of equity award expense related to equity awards granted on June 11, 2014, which vested in equal installments over a five year period beginning one year from the date of grant and were fully vested on June 11, 2019.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to $1.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, was 21.7% compared to 15.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, the increase being primarily due to lower excess tax benefits related to the exercise or vesting of equity awards. Excess tax benefits were $193,000 and $1.3 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2019, and June 30, 2018, respectively.
On May 15, 2019 New Jersey issued a tax technical bulletin which gave guidance on which entities are to be included in a combined group. Real Estate Investment Trusts and Investment Companies will be excluded from the combined group. They will continue to file separate company New Jersey tax returns. As a result of this guidance the Company recorded an additional $211,000 of state tax expense net of federal benefit for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The $211,000 increase was comprised of $425,000 of current tax expense, partially offset by a write-up of deferred tax assets of $214,000.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019, and March 31, 2019
Net income was $8.2 million and $8.8 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2019, and March 31, 2019, respectively. Significant variances from the prior quarter are as follows: a $171,000 decrease in net interest income, a $432,000 increase in the provision for loan losses, a $748,000 decrease in non-interest income, a $454,000 decrease in non-interest expense, and a $330,000 decrease in income tax expense.
Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, decreased $171,000, or 0.6%, as an eight basis point decrease in our net interest margin to 2.55% from 2.63% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, more than offset a $70.0 million, or 1.7%, increase in our average interest-earning assets. The decrease in net interest margin was primarily due to an increased cost of our interest-bearing liabilities, which increased six basis points to 1.53% for the current quarter as compared to 1.47% for the prior quarter. The increase in our average interest-earning assets was due primarily to increases in average loans outstanding of $42.3 million, and average mortgage-backed securities of $87.6 million, partially offset by decreases in average other securities of $19.4 million and average interest-earning deposits in financial institutions of $43.7 million. Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 included loan prepayment income of $174,000, as compared to $420,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. Yields earned on interest-earning assets decreased three basis points to 3.77% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, from 3.80% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
The provision for loan losses increased by $432,000 to $491,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, from $59,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to loan growth. Net charge-offs were $145,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to net charge-offs of $70,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
Non-interest income decreased $748,000 to $2.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, from $3.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to an $839,000 decrease in gains on securities transactions, net. Securities gains, net, during the quarter ended June 30, 2019, included gains of $343,000 related to the Company’s trading portfolio, compared to gains of $1.1 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2019. As discussed above, the trading portfolio is utilized to fund the Company’s deferred compensation plan and gains and losses on trading securities have no effect on net income since participants benefit from, and bear the full risk of, changes in the trading securities market values.
Non-interest expense decreased $454,000, or 2.4%, to $18.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, from $19.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to a $1.2 million decrease in employee compensation and benefits, $739,000 of which is related to the Company's deferred compensation plan which is described above and has no effect on net income, with the remainder attributable to a decrease in medical benefit costs. Partially offsetting the decrease, were increases of $567,000 in advertising expense and $174,000 in data processing costs.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to $2.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 was 21.7% compared to 22.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $359.9 million, or 8.2%, to $4.77 billion at June 30, 2019, from $4.41 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to increases in available-for sale debt securities of $241.6 million, or 29.9%, loans held-for-investment, net, of $93.6 million, or 2.9%, Federal Home Loan Bank of New York stock of $9.8 million, or 43.6%, and the recording of our operating leased assets of $42.4 million from the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) on January 1, 2019, which requires us to recognize on the balance sheet right-of-use assets, which approximate the present value of our remaining lease payments. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $30.9 million, or 39.7%.
As of June 30, 2019, we estimate that our non-owner occupied commercial real estate concentration (as defined by regulatory guidance issued in 2006) to total risk-based capital was approximately 443%. Management believes that Northfield Bank (the Bank) has implemented appropriate risk management practices including risk assessments, board approved underwriting policies and related procedures which include monitoring bank portfolio performance, performing market analysis (economic and real estate), and stressing of the Bank’s commercial real estate portfolio under severe adverse economic conditions. Although management believes the Bank has implemented appropriate policies and procedures to manage our commercial real estate concentration risk, the Bank’s regulators could require us to implement additional policies and procedures or could require us to maintain higher levels of regulatory capital, which might adversely affect our loan originations, ability to pay dividends, and profitability.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $30.9 million, or 39.7%, to $46.9 million at June 30, 2019, from $77.8 million at December 31, 2018. Balances fluctuate based on the timing of receipt of security and loan repayments and the redeployment of cash into higher-yielding assets such as loans and securities, or the funding of deposit outflows or borrowing maturities.
Loans held-for-investment, net, increased $93.6 million to $3.34 billion at June 30, 2019, from $3.25 billion at December 31, 2018, primarily due to an increase in originated loans held-for-investment of $121.9 million, partially offset by decreases in acquired loans of $26.3 million and purchased credit-impaired (“PCI”) loans of $2.1 million. Originated loans held-for-investment, net, totaled $2.80 billion at June 30, 2019, as compared to $2.68 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase in multifamily real estate loans of $98.7 million, or 5.1%, to $2.03 billion at June 30, 2019, from $1.93 billion at December 31, 2018.
On June 12, 2019, New York City announced revised rent laws that included: repealing provisions that remove units from rent stabilization when rent crosses a high threshold or when a unit becomes vacant; or if the tenant’s income is $200,000 or higher in the preceding two years. The updated laws also eliminate a “vacancy bonus” provision which allows property owners to raise rents as much as 20% each time a unit becomes vacant. At June 30, 2019, the Company has approximately $398.2 million in multifamily loans in New York City with tenants that have some form of rent stabilization or rent control. The weighted average loan to value (“LTV”) was 45.8% based on the current balance and the collateral value at date of origination on this portfolio. The highest LTV in this portfolio is 70.2%. All of the loans are performing as agreed. Management will continue to evaluate the effect of rent regulations on the collateral values.

Acquired loans decreased by $26.3 million to $519.9 million at June 30, 2019, from $546.2 million at December 31, 2018, primarily due to paydowns of one-to-four family residential and multifamily loans with weighted average interest rates (net of the servicing fee retained by the originating bank) of 3.63% and 2.85%, respectively, partially offset by purchases of one-to-four family residential loan pools totaling $40.9 million.

The geographic locations of the properties collateralizing the loans purchased in the table above are as follows: 89.6% in Massachusetts, 7.0% in New York, and 3.3% in New Jersey.
PCI loans totaled $18.1 million at June 30, 2019, as compared to $20.1 million at December 31, 2018. The majority of the PCI loan balance consists of loans acquired as part of a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-assisted transaction. The Company accreted interest income of $1.0 million and $2.1 million attributable to PCI loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to $1.0 million and $2.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.
The Company’s available-for-sale debt securities portfolio increased by $241.6 million, or 29.9%, to $1.05 billion at June 30, 2019, from $808.0 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to purchases of mortgage-backed and corporate securities, partially offset by paydowns and sales. At June 30, 2019, $844.8 million of the portfolio consisted of residential mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae. In addition, the Company held $204.5 million in corporate bonds, the majority of which were considered investment grade at June 30, 2019, and $273,000 in municipal bonds.
Total liabilities increased $345.2 million, or 9.2%, to $4.09 billion at June 30, 2019, from $3.74 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in deposits of $13.7 million, securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $75.0 million, other borrowings of $211.2 million, and lease liabilities of $46.3 million, attributable to capitalization of our operating leases as a result of adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, effective January 1, 2019.
Deposits increased $13.7 million, or 0.4%, to $3.30 billion at June 30, 2019, as compared to $3.29 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was attributable to increases of $19.9 million in transaction accounts and $125.8 million in savings accounts, partially offset by decreases of $39.5 million in money market accounts, and $92.6 million in certificates of deposit.

Borrowings and securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased to $695.1 million at June 30, 2019, from $408.9 million at December 31, 2018. Management utilizes borrowings to mitigate interest rate risk, for short-term liquidity, and to a lesser extent as part of leverage strategies. Management increased borrowings because it was more cost effective than the incremental cost of deposits.
The following is a table of term borrowing maturities (excluding capitalized leases and overnight borrowings) and the weighted average rate by year at June 30, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

Total stockholders’ equity increased by $14.7 million to $681.1 million at June 30, 2019, from $666.4 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to net income of $17.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a $13.3 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive income associated with unrealized gains on our debt securities available-for-sale portfolio, and a $4.4 million increase in ESOP and equity award activity. The increase was partially offset by $9.9 million in dividend payments and $10.1 million in stock repurchases.

The increase in non-accrual loans during the quarter was primarily attributable to two commercial real estate loans totaling approximately $2.6 million (originated $1.3 million and acquired $1.3 million) being placed on non-accrual status during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The loans have been individually evaluated for impairment and are adequately secured by collateral with an aggregate fair value of approximately $3.4 million.
Accruing Loans 30 to 89 Days Delinquent
Loans 30 to 89 days delinquent and on accrual status totaled $4.3 million, $8.7 million, and $8.6 million at June 30, 2019, March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively.
