NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Bridge Bancorp, Inc. (the Registrant or Company) and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, The Bridgehampton National Bank (the Bank). The
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In preparing the interim financial statements, management has made estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
revenue and expense for the reported periods. Actual future results could differ
significantly from these estimates. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31,
1996. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for
the year ended December 31, 1995.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
Financial Condition
- -------------------
The assets of the Registrant totaled $198,380,000 at June 30, 1996, an increase
of $ 14,310,000 or 7.8% from the year end. This increase mainly resulted from
the increase in cash and cash equivalents of $10,365,000 caused by normal
fluctuations. Continued construction of the Registrant's new office facility
resulted in an increase in Bank premises and equipment of $1,001,000 in the
first six months of 1996 as these construction costs are capitalized. The source
of funds for the increase in assets was derived from an increase in deposits of
$14,019,000 or 8.4%.
Total stockholders' equity was $15,574,000 at June 30, 1996, an increase of 1.0%
over December 31, 1995. The increase of $154,000 was the result of undistributed
net income for the six month period ended June 30, 1996, of $1,022,000 less the
net change in unrealized appreciation in securities available for sale, net of
tax, of $439,000; and the purchase of 7520 shares of treasury stock at a cost of
$429,000 or $57 per share. The decrease in securities available for sale is
directly attributable to changes in interest rates. Management determined such
depreciation to be temporary, and does not expect future sales to result in
material loss with regards to results of operations.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
During the first six months of 1996, the Registrant earned net income of
$1,330,000 or $2.78 per share as compared with $1,018,000 or $2.12 per share for
the same period in 1995. Net income for the three month period ended June 30,
1996 was $733,000 or $1.54 per share compared to $553,000 or $1.15 per share for
the same period in 1995. Highlights for the six months ended June 30, 1996
include: (i) a $625,000 or 14.4% increase in net interest income; (ii) a
$306,000 or 40.0% increase in total other income; and (iii) a $341,000 or 9.6%
increase in total other expenses.
Net income for the first six months of 1996 reflects annualized returns of
17.13% on average total stockholders' equity and 1.38% on average total assets
as compared to the corresponding figures for the preceding calendar year of
14.90% on average total stockholders' equity and 1.11% on average total assets.
Net interest income, the primary source of income, increased by $625,000 or
14.5% for the current six month period over the same period last year. The
increase resulted from an increase in average total interest earning assets from
$173,367,000 in the first six months of 1995 to $177,603,000 for the comparable
period in 1996, a 2.4% increase.
<PAGE>
An increase in the net yield on average earning assets from 5.0% for the period
ended June 30, 1995 to 5.6% for the same period in 1996 also attributed to the
increase in net interest income. The increase in the net yield on average
interest earning assets was due to an increase in the average yield on assets
from 8.1% for the period ended June 30, 1995 to 8.4% for the same period this
year. The average cost of liabilities decreased from 4.0% to 3.8% from the same
period last year.
A $121,000 provision for possible loan losses was made during the six month
period ended June 30, 1996, compared to a $90,000 provision for the same period
in 1995. The allowance for possible loan losses decreased to $1,017,000 at June
30, 1996, as compared to $1,038,000 at December 31, 1995. As a percentage of
loans the allowance was 0.90% at June 30, 1996 and .93% at December 31, 1995.
The allowance as a percentage of nonperforming loans (including loans past due
90 days or more and still accruing) was 1142.7% at June 30, 1996 compared to
204.3% at December 31, 1995. The allowance reflects management's evaluation of
classified loans, charge-off trends, concentrations of credit and other
pertinent factors. It also reflects input from the Bank's 1995 examination by
the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and outside loan review
consultants.
Total other income increased during the six month period ended June 30, 1996 by
$306,000 or 40.0% over the same period last year. The increase was the result of
mortgage banking activities totalling $276,000, an increase of $165,000 or
148.7% over the same period last year. The increase is caused by the Bank's
efforts to further penetrate the mortgage market. Other operating income
increased $177,000 or 65.6% over the same period last year mainly as the result
of recoveries on nonperforming loans.
Total other expenses increased during the six month period ended June 30, 1996
by $6,000 or .4% over the same period last year. A decrease in the FDIC
assessment by $142,000 or 83.2% was offset by the following increases: (i) a
loss of $65,000 principally resulting from the settlement of a lawsuit involving
a dispute over signing authority on a partnership account which arose out of the
normal conduct of business; (ii) increase in advertising expense of $44,000 or
87.2% resulting from the creative development costs of a new advertising
campaign; and (iii) increase in legal expenses by $37,000
primarily resulting from costs relative to the adoption and set up of the
Registrant's equity incentive plan.
The provision for income taxes increased during the six month period ended June
30, 1996 by $247,000 or 58.3% over the same period last year. The increase
reflects the growth in income before income taxes.
