the right to receive 1.04 shares of Queens common stock, par value

Haven Common Stock held directly or indirectly by Queens, other
7
than shares held in a fiduciary capacity in satisfaction of a debt
previously contracted, (ii) shares held by Haven Bancorp as
treasury stock and (iii) unallocated shares held in Haven Bancorp's

less than 0.80 times the Index Ratio, unless Queens elects to
increase the Merger Consideration to be received by Haven Bancorp's

NOTE 6 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS. In June 2000, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments
and Certain Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No.
133". SFAS No. 138 amends the accounting and reporting standards
of SFAS No. 133 for certain derivative instruments and certain
hedging activities. Management of the Company currently believes
the implementation of SFAS No. 138 will not have a material impact
on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of
Liabilities." SFAS No. 140 replaces SFAS No. 125 and revises the
standards for accounting and reporting for securitizations and
other transfers of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities. SFAS No. 140 is effective for transfers and servicing
of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring
after March 31, 2000. SFAS No. 140 is effective for recognition
and reclassification of collateral and for disclosures relating to
securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending
after December 15, 2000. Management of the Company currently
believes the implementation of SFAS No. 140 will not have a
material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of
operation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
Haven Bancorp, Inc. ("Haven Bancorp" or the "Company") is the
holding company for CFS Insurance Agency, Inc. and CFS Bank ("CFS"
or the "Bank"), a federally chartered stock savings bank. CFS
converted from a mutual to a stock savings bank on September 23,
1993 in conjunction with the issuance of the Bank's capital stock
to Haven Bancorp.
Haven Bancorp's business currently consists primarily of the
business of the Bank. The Bank's principal business has been and
continues to be attracting retail deposits from the general public
and investing those deposits, together with funds generated from
operations primarily in one- to four-family, owner occupied
residential mortgage loans. In addition, the Bank will invest in
debt, equity and mortgage-backed securities ("MBSs") to supplement
its lending portfolio. The Bank also invests, to a lesser extent,
in multi-family residential mortgage loans, commercial real estate
loans and other marketable securities. The Bank's results of
operations are dependent primarily on its net interest income,
which is the difference between the interest income earned on its
loan and securities portfolios and its cost of funds, which
primarily consist of the interest paid on its deposits and borrowed
funds. The Bank's net income also is affected by its non-interest
income, its provision for loan losses and operating expenses
consisting primarily of compensation and benefits, occupancy and
equipment, real estate owned operations, net, federal deposit
insurance premiums and other general and administrative expenses.
The earnings of the Bank are significantly affected by general
economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in market
interest rates, and to a lesser extent, by government policies and
actions of regulatory authorities.
10
On June 27, 2000, the Company and Queens County Bancorp, Inc.
(Nasdaq: QCSB) announced the signing of a definitive agreement and
plan of merger under which the Company will merge with and into
Queens County Bancorp, Inc. in a transaction valued at
approximately $196 million as of June 27, 2000. Under the terms of
the agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of
Directors of both companies, the Company's stockholders are
expected to receive 1.04 shares of Queens County Bancorp common
stock in exchange for each share of the Company's common stock.
The combined entity, to be named New York Community Bancorp, Inc.
(and traded on Nasdaq under the symbol "NYCB"), will have assets of
approximately $5.1 billion and deposits of approximately $3.2
billion prior to a planned restructuring. Upon completion of the
merger which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter, the
pro forma company will have a network of 19 traditional branch
offices and three customer service centers serving Queens and
Nassau counties, and 62 supermarket branches extending throughout
the New York metropolitan area. In order to complete the merger,
the boards of directors of Haven and Queens have each called
special meetings of stockholders to be held on November 20, 2000.
ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION FROM DECEMBER 31, 1999
TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2000
ASSETS
The Company had total assets of $2.96 billion at September 30, 2000
compared to $2.97 billion at December 31, 1999. Securities
available for sale ("AFS") decreased by $33.5 million, or 3.6% to
$903.8 million at September 30, 2000 from $937.3 million at
December 31, 1999 primarily due to principal repayments and sales
of $86.1 million and $54.2 million, respectively, which were
partially offset by purchases of $105.4 million. During the nine
months ended September 30, 2000, the Bank purchased $50.4 million
of MBSs and $55.0 million of debt and equity securities. The
emphasis on debt and equity securities was due to the availability
of more favorable rates and shorter durations than MBSs.
Total loans increased by $75.1 million, or 4.2% to $1.88 billion
at September 30, 2000 from $1.81 billion at December 31, 1999.
Loan originations and purchases during the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2000 totaled $401.5 million (comprised of $204.2
million of residential one- to four-family mortgage loans, $4.2
million of home equity loans and lines of credit, $37.5 million of
multi-family loans, $125.7 million of commercial real estate loans
and $29.9 million of construction and land loans). Residential
loan originations and purchases include loans originated for sale
or purchased in the secondary market for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 totaling $131.9 million. During the first nine
months of 2000, the Bank sold $207.0 million of residential loans
on a servicing released basis to third party investors. During the
first nine months of 2000, principal repayments on loans totaled
$199.3 million.
11
LIABILITIES
Deposits increased by $78.9 million, or 3.8% to $2.16 billion at
September 30, 2000 from $2.08 billion at December 31, 1999
primarily due to deposit inflows from the Bank's supermarket
branches. The Bank had 62 supermarket bank branches as of
September 30, 2000 compared to 63 supermarket branches at December
31, 1999. During the first quarter of 2000, the Bank closed one
branch in an Edwards Superstore in Bayshore, New York and relocated
another branch from the Pathmark Supermarket in Woodmere, New York
to the Pathmark Supermarket in Springfield Gardens, New York.
Deposits in the supermarket branches totaled $929.3 million at
September 30, 2000 compared to $842.3 million at December 31, 1999.
Core deposits (comprised of checking, savings and money market
accounts) were equal to 46.0% of total supermarket branch deposits
at September 30, 2000 compared to 43.8% in the Bank's eight
traditional branches. Core deposits for the supermarket branches
included $227.2 million of "Liquid Asset" account balances at
September 30, 2000. This account was introduced at the supermarket
branches in the second quarter of 1998 and currently pays an
initial rate of 4.25% for balances over $2,500. Overall, core
deposits represented 46.4% of total deposits at September 30, 2000
compared to 45.4% at December 31, 1999. Borrowed funds decreased
by $97.0 million, or 12.9% to $652.2 million at September 30, 2000
from $749.2 million at December 31, 1999 primarily due to the fact
that deposit in-flows and certain other cash flows during the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 were used to pay down borrowings
due to lower loan demand.
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Haven Bancorp's stockholders' equity increased to $123.6 million at
September 30, 2000 from $105.6 million at December 31, 1999. The
increase in stockholders' equity was primarily due to net income of
$14.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. In
addition, there was a decrease of $1.3 million in the unrealized
depreciation on securities available for sale. For the nine months
ended September 30th, dividends declared totaled $1.3 million,
which was offset by the amortization of awards of shares of stock
by the Bank's ESOP, RRPs and deferred compensation plans and stock
option exercises.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS

accrual loans (which consist of loans 90 days or more past due and
restructured loans that have not yet performed in accordance with
their modified terms for the required three-month seasoning

Non-performing assets to total assets 0.25 0.27

13
The decrease in non-performing assets was due to a decrease of
$874,000 in non-performing loans from December 31, 1999 to
September 30, 2000 which was partially offset by an increase in
REO, net from $324,000 at December 31, 1999 to $551,000 at
September 30, 2000. The ratios of non-performing loans to total
loans, non-performing assets to total assets, and non-performing
loans to total assets each declined from December 31, 1999 to
September 30, 2000, primarily due to the growth in the mortgage
loan portfolio and a decline in non-performing loans.
The Bank maintains an allowance for loan losses and an allowance
for REO, which it believes are adequate for probable losses at each
period end. Management's judgment as to probable losses is based
on its review of the loan and REO portfolios and its judgment
regarding prevailing and anticipated economic conditions and a
variety of other factors which have an impact on those portfolios.
Although management believes that the allowances are adequate as of
the period end, additional provisions may be required in the
future.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
The Company has attempted to reduce its exposure to interest rate
risk through the origination and purchase of adjustable-rate
mortgage ("ARM") loans, debt securities and MBSs, maintaining an
AFS portfolio and extending liability maturities in its certificate
of deposit and borrowings portfolios. During the first nine months
of 2000, the Bank originated, or purchased for its portfolio, $71.2
million of residential ARM loans and $115.9 million of multi-
family, commercial real estate and construction ARM loans. During
the nine-month period, the Bank purchased $54.6 million of
adjustable-rate debt securities and MBSs. At September 30, 2000,
$245.6 million, or 27.2% of the Company's AFS portfolio were
adjustable-rate securities and $658.1 million, or 72.8% of the
portfolio were fixed-rate securities.
Historically, the Company has been able to maintain a substantial
level of core deposits (comprised of checking, savings and money
market accounts) which the Company believes helps to limit interest
rate risk by providing a relatively stable, low cost, long-term
funding base. At September 30, 2000, core deposits represented
46.4% of deposits compared to 45.4% of deposits at December 31,
1999. During the first nine months of 2000, savings accounts
decreased by $5.8 million, net of interest, whereas, certificates
of deposit increased by $3.9 million, net of interest. The number
of checking accounts decreased by 3,329, or 1.7% to 190,249 at
September 30, 2000 from 193,578 at December 31, 1999. The number
of checking accounts in the supermarket branches decreased by 283
accounts and the number of checking accounts in the traditional
branches declined by 3,046 accounts. The Company expects to
attract a higher percentage of core deposits from its supermarket
branch locations as the supermarket branching program continues to
mature. During the first nine months of 2000, the Bank replaced
$126.5 million of shorter-term borrowed funds with ten-year, fixed-
rate borrowed funds, which can be called after three years of the
borrowing date.
15
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as
defined by regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS").
This requirement, which may be varied by the OTS depending upon
economic conditions and deposit flows, is based upon a percentage
of withdrawable deposits and short-term borrowings. The required
ratio is currently 4%. The Bank's ratio was 5.43% at September 30,
2000 compared to 4.31% at December 31, 1999.
The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, advances from
the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLB-NY"), principal and
interest payments on loans and MBSs and retained earnings.
Proceeds from the sale of AFS securities and loans held for sale
are also a source of funding, as are, to a lesser extent, the sales
of insurance, annuities and securities brokerage activities
conducted by the Company's subsidiary, CFS Insurance Agency, Inc.
and the Bank's subsidiary, CFS Investments, Inc. While maturities
and scheduled amortization of loans and MBSs are somewhat
predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage
prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates,
economic conditions, competition and regulatory changes.
The Company's most liquid assets are cash and short-term
investments. The levels of these assets are dependent on the
Company's operating, financing, lending and investing activities
during any given period. At September 30, 2000 and December 31,
1999, cash and short-term investments totaled $67.4 million and
$42.7 million, respectively.
The Company and the Bank have other sources of liquidity which
include debt securities maturing within one year, loans held for
sale and AFS securities. Other sources of funds include FHLB
advances, which at September 30, 2000 totaled $519.2 million. An
additional source of funds are sales of securities under repurchase
agreements, which totaled $81.8 million at September 30, 2000.
As of September 30, 2000, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital
requirements as detailed in the following table:
Total
Tangible Capital Leverage Capital Risk-Based Capital (3)
-------------------- -------------------- -----------------------
Amount Ratio (1) Amount Ratio (1) Amount Ratio (1)

(1) For tangible and leverage capital, the ratio is to adjusted
total assets. For total risk-based capital, the ratio is to total
risk-weighted assets.
(2) Under the OTS's prompt corrective action regulations, (i) the
tangible capital requirement was effectively increased from 1.50%
to 2.00% since OTS regulations stipulate that an institution with
less than 2.00% tangible capital will be deemed to be classified as
"critically undercapitalized," and (ii) the leverage capital
requirement was effectively increased from 3.00% to 4.00% because
under the OTS regulations an institution with less than 4.00%
leverage capital is classified as "undercapitalized".
(3) The OTS requirement that an interest rate risk component be
incorporated into its existing risk-based capital standard has been
indefinitely deferred by the OTS. However, the Bank does not
believe that its risk-based capital requirement would be materially
affected as a result of the interest rate risk component.
ANALYSIS OF CORE EARNINGS
The Company's profitability is primarily dependent upon net inter-
est income, which represents the difference between income on
interest-earning assets and expenses on interest-bearing
liabilities. Net interest income is dependent on the average
balances and rates received on interest-earning assets and the
average balances and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
Net income is further affected by the provision for loan losses,
non-interest income, non-interest expense and income taxes.
17
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the
Company's average consolidated statements of financial condition
and consolidated statements of income for the three months and nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 and reflects the average
yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods
indicated. Such yields and costs are derived by dividing income or
expense annualized by the average balance of assets or liabilities,
respectively, for the periods shown. Average balances were derived
from average daily balances. The average balance of loans includes
loans on which the Company has discontinued accruing interest. The
yields and costs include fees which are considered adjustments to
yields.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999
GENERAL. The Company reported net income of $7.0 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 compared to net income of
$3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999. Net
interest income increased $458,000 from the prior year period and
non-interest income increased $1.4 million from the prior year
period. Non-interest expense decreased by $4.5 million, or 22.0%
to $15.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from
$20.3 million for the same period in 1999. The decrease in non-
interest expense was due to the restructuring of the residential
mortgage division, the reduction of the Company's workforce and the
elimination of certain discretionary expenses. Income tax expense
increased $2.7 million due to an increase of $6.7 million in pre-
tax income.
19
NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income increased by $458,000, or
2.5% to $19.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000
from $18.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999.
The increase was primarily due to an increase in the total average
balance of interest-earning assets of $73.1 million, or 2.6% to
$2.84 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from
$2.77 billion for the same period last year. This growth is mainly
due to growth in the Bank's mortgage loan and debt and equity
securities portfolios. The average yield on interest-earning
assets increased to 7.37% for the three-month period ended
September 30, 2000 from 7.01% for the three-month period in 1999,
resulting from the general increase in market interest rates in
1999 and the first nine months of 2000. The average cost of
interest-bearing liabilities increased to 4.71% from 4.39% for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The
net interest spread was 2.66% for the three months ended September
30, 2000 compared to 2.62% for the comparable period in 1999.
Interest income increased by $3.8 million, or 7.9% to $52.3 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $48.5 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1999. The increase was
primarily the result of a $3.7 million increase in interest income
on mortgage loans and an increase of $870,000 in interest income on
debt and equity securities.
Interest income on mortgage loans increased by $3.7 million, or
11.9% to $34.3 million for the three months ended September 30,
2000, from $30.6 million for the comparable three-month period in
1999, primarily as a result of an increase in average balances of
mortgage loans of $171.6 million and an increase of 12 basis points
in the average yield.
Interest income on debt and equity securities increased by
$870,000, or 21.0% to $5.0 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 from $4.1 million for the comparable three-month
period in 1999, primarily as a result of an increase in the average
balance outstanding of $17.9 million and an increase in the average
yield of 88 basis points. The increase in average balances between
the periods was primarily due to an emphasis on purchases of debt
and equity securities for the AFS portfolio due to more favorable
rates and shorter durations than MBSs.
Interest expense increased by $3.4 million, or 11.3% to $33.3
million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $29.9
million for the three months ended September 30, 1999. The
increase was the result of a $3.1 million increase in interest
expense on deposits and an increase of $233,000 in interest expense
on borrowed funds.
Interest expense on deposits increased by $3.1 million, or 16.1% to
$22.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from
20
$19.5 million for the comparable three-month period in 1999. This
increase was primarily due to the average balance which increased
by $179.7 million, or 9.1% to $2.16 billion for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 from $1.98 billion for the comparable
three-month period in 1999. The increase in deposits was primarily
attributable to the Bank's supermarket banking program. At
September 30, 2000, the Bank had 62 supermarket branches operating
with deposits totaling $929.3 million compared to 61 supermarket
branches at September 30, 1999 with deposits totaling $778.1
million. The increase in the average balance was primarily due to
certificate account balances which increased by $147.0 million, or
14.3% to $1.17 billion for the three months ended September 30,
2000 from $1.03 billion for the comparable three-month period in
1999. Interest expense on certificate accounts increased by $4.2
million, or 30.8% to $17.7 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 from $13.6 million in the same period in 1999.
The average cost of certificate accounts was 6.00% for the third
quarter of 2000 compared to 5.28% for the third quarter of 1999,
primarily due to the general rise in market interest rates between
the periods. The overall average cost of deposits was 4.20% for
the three months ended September 30, 2000 compared to 3.94% for the
third quarter of 1999.
Interest expense on borrowed funds increased by $233,000, or 2.2%
to $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from
$10.4 million for the comparable three-month period in 1999.
Borrowed funds, on an average basis, decreased by $77.3 million
between the periods due primarily since deposit inflows and other
cash flows have been used to pay down borrowings due to a reduction
in mortgage loan originations. The average rate paid on borrowings
increased to 6.38% for the three months ended September 30, 2000
from 5.59% for the prior year period due to an increase in market
interest rates during 1999 and the first nine months of 2000.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The Bank provided $596,000 for loan
losses for the three months ended September 30, 2000 compared to
$1.0 million for the comparable three-month period in 1999. The
provision for loan losses is established based on management's
periodic review and evaluation of the loan portfolio and reflects
the decrease in non-performing loans.
NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income increased by $1.4
million, or 18.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to
$9.0 million from $7.6 million for the comparable three-month
period in 1999. Retail banking fees increased by $1.4 million, or
32.2% to $5.9 million for the third quarter of 2000 compared to
$4.5 million for the same period last year. The increase in retail
banking fees is primarily due to the number of checking accounts
which increased by 2,539, or 1.4% to 190,249 accounts at September
30, 2000 from 187,710 accounts at September 30, 1999. A
21
significant portion of this growth is attributable to the Bank's
supermarket banking program. The supermarket branches generated
retail banking fees of $4.7 million for the third quarter of 2000
compared to $3.5 million for the third quarter of last year.
Insurance, annuity and mutual fund fees for the third quarter of
2000 increased by $153,000, or 6.9% to $2.4 million from $2.2
million for the same period last year. Non-interest income for
the third quarter of 2000 included $86,000 of mortgage banking
income compared to mortgage banking income of $97,000 in the third
quarter of 1999. Loan fees and servicing income was $267,000 for
the third quarter of 2000 compared to $528,000 for the same period
last year since the results for 1999 included additional fees on
commercial real estate loans. The decrease in mortgage banking
income is due to a decrease in the Bank's loans held for sale
volume as a result of the wind-down and reorganization of the
Bank's residential mortgage origination operation. The Company
realized gains of $146,000 on the sale of interest earning assets
during the third quarter of 2000, compared to a gain of $111,000
during the third quarter of last year.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Non-interest expense decreased by $4.5
million, or 22.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to
$15.8 million from $20.3 million for the comparable three-month
period in 1999. The decrease was due to the restructuring of the
residential mortgage division, the reduction of the Company's
workforce and the elimination of certain discretionary expenses
beginning in the first quarter of 2000.
Compensation and benefit costs decreased by $2.5 million, or 23.3%
from $10.9 million in the third quarter of 1999 to $8.4 million in
the third quarter of 2000. The decrease was due to the
aforementioned reduction of the Company's workforce and wind-down
of the residential mortgage division.
Occupancy and equipment costs decreased by $376,000, or 10.8% to
$3.1 million for the third quarter of 2000 from $3.5 million for
the same period last year primarily due to the closing of
residential lending offices as a result of restructuring of the
residential mortgage division. Data processing expenses increased
by $168,000, or 17.0%, to $1.2 million for the third quarter of
2000 from $1.0 million for the same period in the prior year
primarily due to growth in the supermarket banking program. The
costs incurred for the federal deposit insurance premiums decreased
by $150,000, or 58.8% to $105,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 from $255,000 for the same period last year due
to a legislative change effective January 1, 2000. The assessment
recognized for the third quarter of 2000 represented the Bank's
share of interest due on the Financing Corporation bonds. The Bank
is no longer subject to a quarterly premium for the SAIF fund due
to its current risk classification. Other operating costs
decreased by $1.4 million, or 31.4% to $3.1 million for the three
22
months ended September 30, 2000 from $4.5 million for the same
period last year, due primarily to the restructuring of the
residential mortgage lending division and the elimination of
certain discretionary expenses.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expense was $4.6 million for an
effective tax rate of 39.4% for the three months ended September
30, 2000 compared to income tax expense of $1.9 million for an
effective tax rate of 39.0% for the comparable period in 1999.
COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999
GENERAL. The Company reported net income of $14.2 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to net income of $8.9
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Net interest
income increased $5.7 million from the prior year period and non-
interest income increased $1.9 million from the prior year period.
Non-interest expense increased by $167,000, or 0.3% to $60.3
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $60.2
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increase
was due primarily to pre-tax net restructuring charges of $6.9
million recognized in the first half of 2000. The Company recorded
a net restructuring charge of approximately $6.6 million related to
the completed sale of parts of the residential mortgage origination
division and the reorganization of the remainder of the division.
The Company also implemented a plan during the first quarter of
2000 to reduce operating expenses through a reduction in the
Company's workforce and the elimination of certain discretionary
expenses. Income tax expense increased $3.0 million due to an
increase of $8.3 million in pre-tax income.
NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income increased by $5.7
million, or 10.9% to $58.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $52.7 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999. The increase was primarily due to an increase
in the total average balance of interest-earning assets of $316.7
million, or 12.5% to $2.84 billion for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $2.53 billion for the same period last
year. This growth is mainly due to growth in the Bank's mortgage
loan and debt and equity securities portfolios. The average yield
on interest-earning assets increased to 7.31% for the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2000 from 7.03% for the nine-month
period in 1999, resulting from the general increase in market
interest rates in 1999 and the first nine months of 2000. The
average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 4.61%
from 4.30% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The net interest spread was 2.70% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 compared to 2.73% for the
comparable period in 1999.
23
Interest income increased by $22.7 million, or 17.5% to $155.9
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $133.2
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increase
was primarily the result of a $18.6 million increase in interest
income on mortgage loans and an increase of $4.9 million in
interest income on debt and equity securities.
Interest income on mortgage loans increased by $18.6 million, or
22.4% to $101.7 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2000, from $83.1 million for the comparable nine-month period in
1999, primarily as a result of an increase in average balances of
mortgage loans of $332.9 million.
Interest income on debt and equity securities increased by $4.9
million, or 52.3% to $14.2 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $9.3 million for the comparable nine-month
period in 1999, primarily as a result of an increase in the average
balance outstanding of $59.5 million and an increase in yield of
102 basis points. The increase in average balances between the
periods was primarily due to the leverage strategy related to Haven
Capital Trust II which was issued in May 1999 and an emphasis on
purchases of debt and equity securities for the AFS portfolio due
to better rates and shorter durations than MBSs.
Interest expense increased by $17.0 million, or 21.1% to $97.5
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $80.5
million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999. The increase was
the result of a $10.6 million increase in interest expense on
deposits and an increase of $6.4 million in interest expense on
borrowed funds.
Interest expense on deposits increased by $10.6 million, or 19.3%
to $65.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from
$54.6 million for the comparable nine-month period in 1999. This
increase was primarily due to the average balance of deposits which
increased by $271.2 million, or 14.5% to $2.14 billion for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 from $1.86 billion for the
comparable nine-month period in 1999. The increase in deposits was
primarily attributable to the Bank's supermarket banking expansion
during 1999. The increase in average balance was primarily due to
certificate account balances which increased by $197.6 million, or
20.8% to $1.15 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
from $950.8 million for the comparable nine-month period in 1999.
Interest expense on certificate accounts increased by $12.0
million, or 32.1% to $49.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $37.4 million in the same period in 1999.
The average cost of certificate accounts was 5.74% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 compared to 5.24% for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, primarily due to the general rise
in market interest rates between the periods. The overall average
cost of deposits was 4.07% for the nine months ended September 30,
24
2000 compared to 3.91% for the nine months ended September 30,
1999.
Interest expense on borrowed funds increased by $6.4 million, or
24.8% to $32.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
from $25.9 million for the comparable nine-month period in 1999.
Borrowed funds on an average basis increased by $55.2 million
between the periods due primarily to the addition of short-term
FHLB advances and securities sold under agreements to repurchase in
order to complement deposit growth as a funding mechanism for
mortgage loan originations during the first quarter of 2000.
Subsequent to the sale of parts of the residential mortgage
origination division and the reorganization of the remainder of the
division during the first quarter, deposit inflows and other cash
flows have been used to pay down borrowings and to purchase AFS
securities as part of the leverage strategy related to Haven
Capital Trust II which was issued in May 1999. The average rate
paid on borrowings increased to 6.29% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from 5.48% for the prior year period due to an
increase in market interest rates during 1999 and the first nine
months of 2000.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The Bank provided $1.7 million for loan
losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to
$2.6 million for the comparable nine-month period in 1999. The
provision for loan losses is established based on management's
periodic review and evaluation of the loan portfolio and reflects
the decrease in non-performing loans.
NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income increased by $1.9
million, or 7.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to
$26.3 million from $24.5 million for the comparable nine-month
period in 1999. Retail banking fees increased by $5.2 million, or
45.3% to $16.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
compared to $11.4 million for the same period last year. The
supermarket branches generated savings and checking fees of $13.0
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to
$8.6 million for the same period last year. Insurance, annuity and
mutual fund fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
increased by $431,000, or 6.8% to $6.8 million from $6.4 million
for the same period last year. Non-interest income for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 included $1.3 million of mortgage
banking income compared to mortgage banking income of $3.0 million
in the same period of 1999. The decrease in mortgage banking
income is due to a decrease in the Bank's loans held for sale
volume as a result of the wind-down and reorganization of the
Bank's residential mortgage origination operation. The net gain
realized on sales of interest-earning assets was $271,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to $1.7 million for
the same period last year.
25
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Non-interest expense increased by $167,000,
or 0.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $60.3
million from $60.2 million for the comparable nine-month period in
1999. The increase was primarily the result of restructuring
charges, net of recoveries, totaling $6.9 million. Excluding the
restructuring charges, non-interest expense decreased by $6.7
million, or 11.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
from the prior year period. Compensation and benefits costs
decreased by $4.9 million, or 15.0% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 to $28.0 million from $32.9 million for the
prior year period due to the reduction in staff and wind-down of
the residential mortgage division previously discussed. Data
processing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
increased by $741,000, or 28.8%, to $3.3 million, from $2.6 million
for the comparable period in the prior year. The increase is
primarily attributable to the growth in the supermarket banking
program. The costs incurred for the federal deposit insurance
premiums decreased by $430,000, or 56.4% to $333,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 from $763,000 for the same period
last year due to a legislative change effective January 1, 2000.
The assessment booked for the first nine months of 2000 represented
the Bank's share of interest due on the Financing Corporation
bonds. The Bank is no longer subject to a quarterly premium for
the SAIF fund due to its current risk classification. Other
operating costs decreased by $1.7 million, or 12.0% to $12.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $13.7
million for the same period last year, due primarily to the
reduction in staff and wind-down of the residential mortgage
division previously discussed.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expense was $8.5 million for an
effective tax rate of 37.3% for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 compared to income tax expense of $5.5 million for an
effective tax rate of 38.3% for the comparable period in 1999. The
decrease in the effective tax rate was due to additional tax
savings realized from the formation of the Bank's wholly-owned
subsidiary, CFS Investments New Jersey, Inc., a New Jersey
Investment Company, during the fourth quarter of 1999.
