CEO COMMENTARY

Commenting on the Company's second quarter performance, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, Thomas R. Cangemi said: "We are extremely pleased with the Company's operating performance during the current second quarter. By almost any measure, results exceeded expectations, despite market volatility and higher interest rates. We reported record net income available to common stockholders, another quarter of record deposit growth, near-record loan growth, record originations, a higher net interest margin, and stable operating expenses, while asset quality remained stellar. This resulted in strong year-over-year diluted earnings per share growth.

"Diluted EPS were $0.34, up 13% on a year-over-year basis, while non-GAAP diluted EPS, excluding merger-related expenses of approximately $4 million, rose 6% to $0.35 compared to $0.33 in the second-quarter of last year.

"One of the main highlights during the quarter was our deposit growth. Total deposits increased $3.3 billion during the second quarter, up 35% on an annualized basis compared to $2.9 billion of deposit growth during the first quarter and now total more than $41 billion. The significant increase continues to be the result of our BaaS initiative and continued success in garnering deposits from our borrowers. Overall, BaaS deposits increased $2.3 billion from the first quarter to $7.8 billion, while loan-related deposits grew nearly $500 million compared to the first quarter and now total $4.9 billion.

"So far during the first half of 2022, loan-related deposits have risen $921 million compared to $475 million during all of 2021, evidencing the Company's strategy to emphasize deposits at the expense of wholesale borrowings. All told, since re-focusing on this source of funding in January of last year, loan-related deposits have increased $1.4 billion, up about 40%.

"Meanwhile, wholesale borrowings continue to decrease, dropping $2.3 billion during the first six months of the year.

"We also saw continued growth in our loan portfolio, as total loans rose $1.8 billion or 15% on an annualized basis compared to the first quarter of the year. This marks the third consecutive quarter of double-digit loan growth and our growth in the second quarter was the second best quarter on record compared only to the fourth quarter of last year when we reported $2.2 billion of growth. Second quarter loan growth was driven by continued solid growth in the multi-family portfolio and a strong rebound in the specialty finance portfolio compared to last quarter.

"Loan originations of $5.3 billion also set a new record for the Company during the current second quarter. This was up almost 50% compared to the first quarter of the year and over 70% higher than what was originated during the second quarter of last year.

"While the loan portfolio has grown significantly, we have not compromised our standards, continuing to underwrite all of our loans based on our conservative criteria. This is reflected in our strong asset quality metrics, as non-performing assets declined 20% to $56 million, representing only nine basis points of total assets, and remain among the best in the industry.

"Our net interest margin improved during the second quarter, despite the Federal Reserve aggressively raising interest rates several times so far this year. At 2.52%, the margin was up nine basis points linked-quarter. Excluding the impact from prepayment income, which nearly doubled during the second quarter, the margin was still up three basis points from the previous quarter to 2.38%.

"Our non-interest expenses remain in-check despite the Company continuing to invest in our businesses and hiring more people. Non-interest expenses totaled $138 million for the second quarter, which include $4 million of merger-related expenses. Excluding this, operating expenses were $134 million, unchanged from the previous quarter and up modestly on a year-over-year basis. Our efficiency ratio was 35.57%, down compared to both the prior and year-ago quarters.

"As you can see, we had broad-based strength during the second quarter. None of which would have been possible without the hard work, patience, and long hours on the part of all of our employees.

"Finally, on the Flagstar merger front, we feel very good where we stand right now. Over the past 15 months, both sides have diligently worked together to get us into a strong position to close the deal quickly once all regulatory approvals are received in order to hit the ground running."

DIVIDEND DECLARATION

The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per share on the Company's common stock. Based on a closing price of $9.39 as of July 26, 2022, this represents an annualized dividend yield of 7.2%. The dividend is payable on August 18, 2022 to common stockholders of record as of August 8, 2022.

BALANCE SHEET SUMMARY

At June 30, 2022, total assets were $63.1 billion, up $3.6 billion or 12% annualized compared to December 31, 2021 and up $2.1 billion or 14% annualized compared to March 31, 2022. Both the year-to-date and linked-quarter growth was driven by significant loan and deposit growth, an increase in our cash balances, offset by a decline in wholesale borrowings, while total securities remained relatively unchanged.

Total loans held for investment increased $2.8 billion or 12% annualized compared to December 31, 2021 and were up $1.8 billion or 15% annualized on a linked-quarter basis. This was driven by continued strong growth in the Company's core multi-family portfolio and a significant rebound in growth in our specialty finance portfolio.

On the liability side, total deposits rose $6.2 billion or 35% annualized compared to December 31, 2021 and increased $3.3 billion during the second quarter, to $41.2 billion, also up 35% annualized on a linked-quarter basis. Once again, the deposit growth was driven by our BaaS business and loan-related deposits.

Given the strong deposit growth again during the second quarter, wholesale borrowings declined to $13.7 billion at June 30, 2022, down $2.3 billion or 28% annualized compared to December 31, 2021 and down $1.0 billion on a linked-quarter basis, also down 28% annualized.

Loans

At June 30, 2022, the multi-family portfolio totaled $36.8 billion. This represents $2.2 billion in growth compared to December 31, 2021, up 13% annualized and $1.0 billion in growth or 11% annualized on a linked-quarter basis. Our growth in this segment continues to be driven by market share gains as competition abates, and heightened refinancing activity as market interest rates moved higher during the second quarter.

The specialty finance portfolio grew significantly compared to the previous quarter. At June 30, 2022, the specialty finance portfolio totaled $4.1 billion, up $806 million on a linked-quarter basis or 97% annualized and up $638 million or 36% annualized compared to December 31, 2021. As of June 30, 2022, total commitments in the specialty finance segment were $6.6 billion, up 16% compared to $5.7 billion at March 31, 2022. Of the June 30th amount, 75% or $5 billion are structured as floating rate obligations, which have and will continue to benefit us in a rising rate environment. The strong improvement this quarter was driven largely by higher utilization rates.

The CRE portfolio totaled $6.7 billion, at June 30, 2022, unchanged compared to the levels at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Originations

Loan originations set a new record for the Company during the second quarter of the year. Loan originations for the three months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $5.3 billion. This was up $1.7 billion or 49% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 and up $2.2 billion or 72% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

During the current second quarter, multi-family originations totaled $2.9 billion, up $529 million or 22% on a linked-quarter basis and $861 million or 41% on a year-over-year basis. Specialty finance originations totaled $1.9 billion, up $1.2 billion or 194% on a linked-quarter basis and up $1.3 billion or 210% on a year-over-year basis.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, loan originations increased 57% to $8.8 billion compared to $5.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Multi-family originations increased 51% or $1.8 billion to $5.3 billion, while specialty finance originations more than doubled to $2.5 billion compared to $1.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Second quarter originations exceeded the prior quarter's pipeline of $2.5 billion by $2.8 billion or more than double. Approximately 80% of our second quarter originations represented new money to the Bank. In addition, 37% of originations were refinanced from our portfolio; 39% were refinanced from other bank portfolios; and 24% were related to property transactions.

Pipeline

The current pipeline heading into the third quarter of 2022 stands at $2.5 billion. Approximately 72% of the pipeline represents new money to the Bank. The current pipeline includes $1.9 billion of multi-family loans, $269 million of CRE loans, and $355 million of specialty finance loans.

Asset Quality

Loan Deferral Program Update

The significant increase in deposits continues to be driven by ongoing growth in our BaaS business and in loan-related deposits.

Interest-bearing checking and money market accounts increased $6.0 billion to $19.2 billion compared to December 31, 2021 and $2.8 billion or 69% annualized compared to March 31, 2022.

Of the second quarter total amount, $1.6 billion or 33% were business operating accounts compared to $1.2 billion at March 31, 2022.

Our BaaS-related deposits fall primarily under three categories: the traditional BaaS business, consisting largely of fintech company deposits; government banking as a service, serving various municipalities and the U.S. Treasury's prepaid debit card program; and mortgage as a service, which caters to mortgage companies and consists of escrow deposits for principal, interest payments and tax payments.

EARNINGS SUMMARY FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022

Net Interest Income

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net interest income increased $28 million on a year-over-year basis to $359 million, up 8%. This was driven by a $42 million or 10% increase in interest income to $473 million, offset slightly by a $14 million or 14% increase in interest expense. This was due to a $4.0 billion or 8% increase in average-interest earnings assets to $57.0 billion (driven primarily by a 10% increase in average loan balances), along with a seven basis point improvement in the average yield to 3.32%. This was combined with a $4.7 billion or 11% increase in average interest-bearing liabilities to $49.8 billion (largely due to a 19% increase in average interest-bearing deposit balances), as well as a four basis point increase in the average cost to 0.92% on a year-over-year basis.

Included in net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 is $20 million of prepayment income compared to $27 million of prepayment income for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $691 million compared to $649 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, up $42 million or 6%. The six-month results were driven by a $3.7 billion or 7% increase in average interest-earnings assets to $55.8 billion coupled with a four basis point decline in the average yield to 3.24%. This was partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities to $48.7 billion, up $3.5 billion or 8% and a four basis point decline in the average cost of funds to 0.87%.

Included in net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $31 million of prepayment income compared to $47 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

This earnings release and the associated conference call may include forward-looking statements by the Company and our authorized officers pertaining to such matters as our goals, intentions, and expectations regarding revenues, earnings, loan production, asset quality, capital levels, and acquisitions, among other matters; our estimates of future costs and benefits of the actions we may take; our assessments of probable losses on loans; our assessments of interest rate and other market risks; and our ability to achieve our financial and other strategic goals, including those related to the pending merger with Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. and the strategic relationship with Figure Technologies, Inc.

Forward-looking statements are typically identified by such words as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "outlook," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "should," and other similar words and expressions, and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which change over time. Additionally, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made; the Company does not assume any duty, and does not undertake, to update our forward-looking statements. Furthermore, because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those anticipated in our statements, and our future performance could differ materially from our historical results.

Our forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties: the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the length of time that the pandemic continues, the potential imposition of future shelter in place orders or additional restrictions on travel in the future, the effect of the pandemic on the general economy and on the businesses of our borrowers and their ability to make payments on their obligations, the remedial actions and stimulus measures adopted by federal, state, and local governments; the inability of employees to work due to illness, quarantine, or government mandates; general economic conditions and trends, either nationally or locally; conditions in the securities markets; changes in interest rates; changes in deposit flows, and in the demand for deposit, loan, and investment products and other financial services; changes in real estate values; changes in the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios; changes in competitive pressures among financial institutions or from non-financial institutions; changes in legislation, regulations, and policies; and a variety of other matters which, by their nature, are subject to significant uncertainties and/or are beyond our control. Our forward-looking statements are also subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties with respect to our pending merger with Flagstar Bancorp and our strategic relationship with Figure Technologies, Inc.: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of any of the parties to the pending transactions to terminate the agreements governing such transactions; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company or any other party to the transactions; the possibility that the proposed transactions will not close when expected or at all because required regulatory or other approvals are not received or other conditions to the closings are not satisfied on a timely basis or at all, or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed transactions will not be realized when expected or at all; diversion of management's attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; the possibility that the Company may be unable to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in or as a result of the proposed transactions within the expected timeframes or at all; revenues following the proposed transactions may be lower than expected; and there can be no assurance that the Community Benefits Agreement entered into with NCRC, which is contingent upon the closing of the Company's pending merger with Flagstar Bancorp, Inc., will achieve the results or outcome originally expected or anticipated by us as a result of changes to our business strategy, performance of the U.S. economy, or changes to the laws and regulations affecting us, our customers, communities we serve, and the U.S. economy (including, but not limited to, tax laws and regulations).

NEW YORK COMMUNITY BANCORP, INC.
RECONCILIATIONS OF CERTAIN GAAP AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(unaudited)

While stockholders' equity, total assets, and book value per share are financial measures that are recorded in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), tangible stockholders' equity, tangible assets, and tangible book value per share are not. Nevertheless, it is management's belief that these non-GAAP measures should be disclosed in our earnings releases and other investor communications for the following reasons:

Tangible stockholders' equity is an important indication of the Company's ability to grow organically and through business combinations, as well as its ability to pay dividends and to engage in various capital management strategies.
Returns on average tangible assets and average tangible stockholders' equity are among the profitability measures considered by current and prospective investors, both independent of, and in comparison with, the Company's peers.
Tangible book value per share and the ratio of tangible stockholders' equity to tangible assets are among the capital measures considered by current and prospective investors, both independent of, and in comparison with, its peers.

Tangible stockholders' equity, tangible assets, and the related non-GAAP profitability and capital measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for stockholders' equity, total assets, or any other profitability or capital measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate these non-GAAP measures may differ from that of other companies reporting non-GAAP measures with similar names.

The following table presents reconciliations of our common stockholders' equity and tangible common stockholders' equity, our total assets and tangible assets, and the related GAAP and non-GAAP profitability and capital measures at or for the periods indicated:

(1)	To calculate return on average assets for a period, we divide net income generated during that period by average assets recorded during that period. To calculate return on average tangible assets for a period, we divide net income by average tangible assets recorded during that period.
(2)	To calculate return on average common stockholders' equity for a period, we divide net income available to common stockholders generated during that period by average common stockholders' equity recorded during that period. To calculate return on average tangible common stockholders' equity for a period, we divide net income available to common stockholders generated during that period by average tangible common stockholders' equity recorded during that period.

While diluted earnings per common share, net income, net income available to common stockholders, and total non-interest income are financial measures that are recorded in accordance with GAAP, financial measures that adjust these GAAP measures to exclude expenses related to our pending merger with Flagstar, the CARES Act-related tax benefit, and the revaluation of deferred taxes related to New York State tax rate changes are not. Nevertheless, it is management's belief that these non-GAAP measures should be disclosed in our earnings release and other investor communications because they are not considered part of recurring operations and are included because the Company believes they may provide useful supplemental information for evaluating the underlying performance trends of the Company.

⁽¹⁾ Certain merger-related expenses are non-deductible.

While net income is a financial measure that is calculated in accordance with GAAP, PPNR and PPNR excluding merger-related expenses are non-GAAP financial measures. Nevertheless, it is management's belief that these non-GAAP measures should be disclosed in our earnings releases and other investor communications because management believes these measures are relevant to understanding the performance of the Company attributable to elements other than the provision for credit losses and the ability of the Company to generate earnings sufficient to cover estimated credit losses. These measures also provide a meaningful basis for comparison to other financial institutions since it is commonly employed and is a measure frequently cited by investors and analysts. The following table reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures of PPNR and PPNR excluding merger-related expenses to the comparable GAAP financial measures of net income for the stated periods:

While our net interest margin, including the contribution of prepayment income is recorded in accordance with GAAP, adjusted net interest margin, which excludes the contribution of prepayment income, is not. Nevertheless, management uses this non-GAAP measure in its analysis of our performance, and believes that this non-GAAP measure should be disclosed in our earnings releases and other investor communications for the following reasons:

Adjusted net interest margin gives investors a better understanding of the effect of prepayment income and other items on our net interest margin. Prepayment income in any given period depends on the volume of loans that refinance or prepay, or securities that prepay, during that period. Such activity is largely dependent on external factors such as current market conditions, including real estate values, and the perceived or actual direction of market interest rates.
Adjusted net interest margin is among the measures considered by current and prospective investors, both independent of, and in comparison to, our peers.
