LIQUIDITYOVERVIEW PFS’ cash flows from loan payments and maturing investment securities are fairly predictable sources of funds. Changes in interest rates, local economic conditions and the competitive marketplace can influence loan prepayments, prepayments on mortgage‐backed securities and deposit flows.

PFS has continued to monitor and focus on depositor behavior and borrowing capacity with the FHLBNY and FRBNY, with current borrowing capacity of $1.72 billion and $1.33 billion, respectively as of March 31, 2024. All borrowing capacity is immediately available. PFS’ estimated uninsured and uncollateralized deposits at March 31, 2024 totaled $2.49 billion, or 24.7% of deposits LBAI’s estimated uninsured and uncollateralized deposits at March 31, 2024 totaled $2.30 billion, or 27.1% of deposits 35
