THE FIRST OF LONG ISLAND CORPORATION
Item 2
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
Financial Condition
Total assets of The First of Long Island Corporation at September 30, 1996
were $438.8 million, reflecting an increase of $5.2 million or 1.2% from the
previous quarter end and an increase of $13.1 million or 3.1% from the previous
year end.
Demand deposits at period end totaled $123.6 million, showing an
increase of $1.8 million or 1.5% over the previous quarter end, and level with
the previous year end. On an average balance basis, however, checking accounts,
which comprise the largest part of demand deposits, continued to show growth,
increasing over the comparable 1995 period averages. Such year to date averages
reflect a growth of approximately $8 million or 7.2%. Demand deposits on both an
actual and average balance basis represent 28% of total assets, a percentage
substantially higher than figures reported by like financial institutions as a
group. Savings, money market and other time deposits increased in total by $10.4
million or 4.1% from the previous year end and by $1.7 million or .7% from the
previous quarter end. On an average balance basis, these deposits were higher
than the comparable 1995 period. Historically, the Corporation has relied on its
strong core deposit base as its source of funding, with no reliance on
borrowings or purchased funds. Total deposits on both an actual and average
balance basis represent 88% of total assets.
Earning assets at September 30, 1996 were $402.9 million, an increase
of $1.7 million or .4% from the previous quarter end, and an increase of $12.0
million or 3.1% from the previous year end. Earning assets include federal funds
sold, investment securities, and loans.
Investment securities increased $8.2 million or 3.8% from the previous
quarter end and increased $7.1 million or 3.2% from the previous year end,
offsetting much of the growth in deposits thus far in 1996. Total invested
securities, which is made up of investment securities plus federal funds sold,
represent the Corporation's largest component of earning assets and approximate
58% of total assets for the prior quarters and year end, as well as on an
average balance basis. At period end, of the total invested securities, $51.5
million are short term, that is, with maturities of less than one year. On
average for the year, the amount was $57.2 million. Short term investments
contribute substantially to the Corporation's liquidity. No investment trading
account is maintained. The Corporation does not purchase any noninvestment grade
securities other than occasionally from local issuers.
<PAGE>
Total loans were $152.0 million at September 30, 1996, a decrease of $1.5
million or 1% from the previous quarter end and an increase of $5.4 million or
3.7% from the previous year end. While commercial, installment, and residential
mortgage loans show increases during these periods, commercial mortgage
outstandings have declined overall as payments on old loans have been greater
than bookings of new commercial mortgages. Real estate mortgage loans continue
to make up the major portion of outstandings. Total loans usually run at
approximately 35% of total assets on an actual and average balance basis. The
loan portfolio continues to be comprised of domestic loans only and does not
include participation in transactions commonly known as leveraged buy-outs of
publicly held companies.
The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1996 was $3.6 million or
2.4% of total loans, remaining level with both the previous quarter and year
ends. No provision for loan losses was deemed necessary thus far this year,
paralleling a similar situation for the previous year. For the current nine
months of 1996, recoveries exceeded charge-offs by $9.4 thousand. Accruing loans
which were past due ninety days or more amounted to $42 thousand compared with
$27 thousand at the previous quarter end and $251 thousand at the previous year
end. Nonaccrual loans were $737 thousand compared with $768 thousand at the
previous quarter end and $843 thousand at the previous year end. The current
allowance as a percent of past due and nonaccrual loans was 314%.
Total stockholders' equity of $52.6 million showed an increase of $2.1
million or 4.1% from the previous quarter end and an increase of $3.3 million or
6.7% from the previous year end. Under Financial Accounting Standards Board
Release No. 115, investment securities determined available for sale are carried
at market value rather than amortized cost in the stockholders' equity section
of the balance sheet. As a result, fluctuations in market value of securities
causes fluctuations in the stockholders' equity. At September 30, 1996,
unrealized depreciation net of taxes for quarter end was $269 thousand, somewhat
lower than the depreciation of $697 thousand recorded at the previous quarter
end, and substantially different from the appreciation of $585 thousand recorded
at the previous year end. While the effects of the aforementioned accounting
release impact the reported net change in stockholders' equity, the effects thus
far have not had a material adverse impact. As mentioned in the June 1996
reporting, a cash dividend was declared in the amount of 30 cents per share. The
dividend was subsequently paid on July 22, 1996 to shareholders of record July
8, 1996. Further, as mentioned in the March 1996 reporting, a three for two
stock split was paid by means of a 50% stock dividend to shareholders of record
on January 8, 1996. All applicable shares and per share amounts have been
retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of such dividend.
<PAGE>
Liquidity and capital resources continue to exceed substantially
regulatory requirements. The comparison of risk-based capital ratios maintained
at period end to the regulatory minimum requirements were as follows:
Minimum
Required Sept.30 June 30 March 31 Dec. 31
Rate 1996 1996 1996 1995
-------- ------- ------- -------- -----
Total Capital Ratio 8.00% 33.33% 31.84% 31.78% 31.50%
Tier I Capital Ratio 4.00% 32.07% 30.58% 30.52% 30.24%
Leverage Ratio 4.00% 11.99% 11.82% 11.53% 11.59%
Management regularly monitors the asset/liability sensitivity position
to assure maintenance of adequate liquidity and a satisfactory balance between
interest sensitive assets and interest sensitive liabilities.
Results of Operations
Net income for the third quarter of 1996 was $1,806 thousand or $.85
per share compared with $1,651 thousand or $.77 per share for the third quarter
of 1995. This is an increase of 10% in earnings per share.
Net income for the current nine month period was $5,134 thousand or
$2.41 per share compared with $4,428 thousand or $2.07 per share for the same
period of 1995, an increase of $706 thousand or 16%.
As in the first two quarters, a factor favorably influencing earnings
was a decline in noninterest operating expenses as virtually no FDIC insurance
expense was incurred in this third quarter of 1996. This is to be compared with
$192 thousand that was recorded in each of the first two quarters and a $17
thousand net credit that was recorded in the third quarter of 1995. During the
third quarter of 1995, the Bank Insurance Fund was determined to have reached
its legal requirement such that a refund was actually paid to the Corporation in
September. For the last quarter of 1995, FDIC premium expense was a modest $34
thousand. In addition, income was favorably impacted in the third quarter by the
growth in checking balances and service charge income. The increase in service
charge income was principally the result of pricing adjustments which mostly
became effective in October of 1995. There was also good growth in money market
type savings balances, but the benefit to earnings from these balances was
largely offset by a decline in traditional savings balances.

Net interest income continues as the Corporation's primary source of
income. Net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 increased
$253 thousand or 5.3% over the third quarter of 1995. Net interest income for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased $779 thousand or 5.5% over
the same period of 1995. The related net interest margin of 5.12%, however, was
less than that of the same nine month period last year by seven basis points,
paralleling the same differential reported at June 30, 1996.
Noninterest income net of securities transactions showed an increase of
$53 thousand or 5.5% for the third quarter of 1996 compared with the third
quarter of 1995, and an increase of $302 thousand or 11.4% for the nine month
period of 1996 compared with the nine month period of 1995. The largest
component of these increases reflect the increase in service charges on deposit
accounts as mentioned above.
There were no gains or losses on the sale of securities during the
current three or nine month periods in comparison to a small gain reported in
the first quarter of 1995.
Operating expenses showed an increase of $63 thousand in the third
quarter of 1996 compared with the third quarter of 1995. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1996, operating expenses decreased in total by $43 thousand
when compared to the similar previous period. The positive variance between the
compared nine month periods was due to the virtual elimination of FDIC insurance
expense. After excluding FDIC insurance, total operating expenses increased 3.3%
in the 1996 nine month period, as compared to the similar 1995 period.
No provisions for loan losses were considered necessary for the current
or previously reported periods.
Return on average assets (ROA) and return on average stockholders'
equity (ROE) for the current nine month period were 1.57% and 13.54%,
respectively, compared with 1.44% and 13.10%, respectively, for the similar
period of 1995.
Other Information
Capital expenditures for the year were budgeted at approximately $1,026
thousand. These expenditures are intended to cover costs of furniture and
equipment, facility improvements, and branch office expansion. Expenditures for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 amounted to $381 thousand and are
expected to remain below budgeted amounts.
Stock repurchase plans have been approved by the Board of Directors
since 1988, authorizing the Corporation to repurchase shares of its own common
<PAGE>
stock in market or private transactions. Ten such plans have been initiated
since that date involving the repurchase of 20,000 to 25,000 shares per plan.
The tenth plan, which is also the most current one, was approved in November
1995 for 25,000 shares (adjusted to 37,500 shares). At the time of approval,
there were also 16,117 shares (on an adjusted basis) that were available to be
repurchased from the prior plan. The authorization for the latest plan
approximates one and three quarters percent of the Corporation's then
outstanding shares of 1,397,495 (adjusted to 2,096,242 shares). At quarter end,
36,739 shares remain to be repurchased under the current plan. The total number
of repurchases completed during the present nine month period was 16,878 shares.
It is the Corporation's belief that these repurchases of shares will help
maximize shareholder value. The stock purchases are financed through available
Corporate cash.
The subsidiary bank underwent a routine safety and soundness and Bank
Information Systems (BIS) examination during the current third quarter by the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency also recently conducted its separately scheduled examination of the
subsidiary Bank's Trust and Investment Services Department. The Corporation was
examined by Federal Reserve Bank of New York Examiners during the second quarter
of 1996. Management is not aware, nor has it been apprised by any regulatory
authority, of any recommendations that would have a material effect on the
Corporation's liquidity, capital resources and operations.
At their regularly scheduled meeting on July 16, 1996, the Board of
Directors of The First of Long Island Corporation adopted a Shareholder
Protection Rights Plan and declared a dividend of one Right on each outstanding
share of Common Stock. The dividend was paid on July 31, 1996 to shareholders of
record on July 31, 1996. The Rights Plan was not adopted in response to any
specific effort to acquire control of The First of Long Island Corporation.
Rather, it was adopted to deter abusive takeover tactics that can be used to
deprive shareholders of the full value of their investment. The Rights Plan was
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Form 8-A on July 30,
1996.
Also at the above meeting, Mr. Walter C. Teagle III was appointed by
the Board of Directors as a Class I Director. Mr. Teagle is president of Teagle
Management, Inc., a private investment company, as well as president of Metro
Design Systems, Inc., which provides engineering design services to the
telecommunications industry. It is anticipated that Mr. Teagle's name will be
submitted for election to a full two year term at the next Annual Shareholder's
Meeting in April 1997.
The First of Long Island Corporation was organized as a New York
corporation on February 7, 1984 for the purpose of becoming a one bank holding
company. On April 30, 1984 the Corporation commenced operations as a bank
<PAGE>
holding company when it acquired all the outstanding stock of The First National
Bank of Long Island. The Bank, which was chartered under national banking laws
in 1927, currently maintains fifteen offices in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. The
Corporation is not, nor has it been, involved in any acquisitions or mergers.
As referenced in our 1995 Annual Report, the most recent branch office
was opened in January of this year in Great Neck, and research is continuing of
other areas for added Commercial Banking Units as well as for full service
offices.
