            LONG ISLAND BANCORP, INC. REPORTS THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS
         Melville,  New York, July 22, 1997 - Long Island Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:
LISB),  the holding company for The Long Island Savings Bank, FSB today reported
net income of $12.4  million,  an increase of $1.1  million,  or 10.0%,  for the
quarter ended June 30, 1997 compared with $11.3 million for the comparable  1996
quarter.  For the nine months  ended June 30,  1997,  the Company  reported  net
income of $36.5 million,  an increase of $2.3 million,  or 6.7%,  from the $34.2
million earned in 1996.  Earnings per share for the three and nine month periods
in 1997 were $0.53 and $1.54,  respectively,  compared  with $0.47 and $1.40 for
the same periods in 1996.
         Commenting on the financial  performance this quarter, John J. Conefry,
Jr.,  Chairman of the Board and Chief  Executive  Officer  stated,  "The Company
continues to report record  quarterly  earnings and an overall  solid  financial
performance.  During the  quarter,  we  successfully  completed  a $1.0  billion
medium-term  note  credit  facility  which  will  provide   additional   funding
availability and flexibility. The Bank obtained an investment grade rating which
will permit borrowing at favorable rates compared with funding  alternatives."

EARNINGS SUMMARY FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30,1997
- ---------------------------------------------------
         The  Company's net interest  income  increased by $0.9 million to $40.0
million for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 compared with the 1996 quarter.  The
increase in net  interest  income is  attributable  to the growth of the average
real estate  loan  portfolio  to $3.4  billion  for the 1997  quarter  from $2.6
billion  for the 1996  quarter.  This  growth  was  funded  by a $693.0  million
increase in average borrowed funds, a $58.8 million increase in average deposits
and a $41.1 million reduction in the average MBS portfolio.
         The net  interest  margin  declined to 2.88% in the 1997  quarter  from
3.29% in the 1996  quarter.  The  decline in the net  interest  margin is due to
additional  leveraging of the Company's capital base resulting in higher overall
funding  costs.  Further  contributing  to  the  lower  interest  margin  was  a
flattening  of the yield curve which  resulted in lower  yields on average  real
estate  loans.  During the quarter  ended June 30, 1997,  the Bank issued a five
year fixed rate note in the amount of $300.0 million and simultaneously  entered
into an interest rate swap  agreement for a similar  notional  amount.  The swap
agreement  converted  the fixed rate  interest  obligation of 7% into a variable
rate of LIB0R minus 3 basis  points.  The Bank has the ability to borrow up to a
total of $1.0 billion under the medium-term debt credit facility.
         The  provision  for possible loan losses was reduced by $0.1 million to
$1.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1997, from $1.6 million for the 1996
quarter.  Non-performing loans remained stable at approximately $53.3 million at
June 30,  1997  and  1996.  The  ratio of  non-performing  loans to gross  loans
improved to 1.47% at June 30,  1997,  from 1.81% in 1996 and the  allowance  for
possible loan losses to  non-performing  loans  decreased  marginally to 63.10%,
from 64.50% in 1996.
         Total  non-interest  income  decreased  $0.3 million,  or 3.2%, to $9.9
million for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 compared with the 1996 quarter. This
decline is  attributable  to  reductions  of $0.7  million in fee  income,  $0.3
million in other income and $0.3 million in gains on  investment  in real estate
and  premises,  offset by an  increase  in gains of $0.9  million on the sale of
loans and  mortgage-backed  securities  for the quarter ended June 30, 1997. The
$0.6 million decline in loan service fee income resulted from declining balances
of home equity loans previously  securitized.  Other income declined as a result
of a decrease of $0.3 million in income from secondary marketing and real estate
investments  and premises  gains  decreased by $0.3 million  primarily  from the
decline in rental income related to investment properties sold during 1996.
         Total General and Administrative  expense declined by $0.5 million,  to
$28.0  million  for the  quarter  ended  June 30,  1997  compared  with the 1996
quarter.  This change was primarily  due to the  reduction in federal  insurance
premiums of $1.5  million  resulting  from  recent  BIF/SAIF  legislation  and a
reduction in advertising expense of $0.6 million.  The effect of these decreases
was partially  offset by incremental  operating costs stemming from the June and
August 1996  acquisitions  of  mortgage  origination  offices of Fleet  Mortgage
Company and First Home Mortgage of Virginia, Inc., respectively.
         Income tax expense remained constant at $7.9 million due to the decline
in the  effective  tax rate to 38.8% for the  quarter  ended June 30,  1997 from
41.2% for the 1996 quarter.  The decline in the  effective tax rate  principally
reflects  changes  in the  New  York  State  and New  York  City  tax  bad  debt
regulations,  the effect of which more than offset the $1.1 million  increase in
pre-tax income.

EARNINGS SUMMARY FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
- --------------------------------------------------------
         Net interest  income  increased  by $4.8  million,  or 4.1%,  to $120.4
million during the nine months ended June 30, 1997 compared with the same period
in 1996. The increase in net interest  income is  attributable  to the growth of
the average real estate loan portfolio to $3.3 billion for the nine months ended
June 30, 1997 from $2.2  billion  for the same  period in 1996.  This growth was
funded primarily by a $692.1 million increase in average borrowed funds, a $77.6
million  increase in average  deposits  and a $307.6  million  reduction  in the
average MBS  portfolio.  The net interest  margin  declined to 2.94% in the 1997
period from 3.30% in the 1996 period for the reasons mentioned in the discussion
of earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 1997.
         The provision for possible loan losses was reduced by $0.2 million,  or
4.3%, reflecting  management's  assessment of the stable level of non-performing
assets.
         Total  non-interest  income declined by $1.0 million,  or 3.4%, for the
nine months ended June 30, 1997  compared  with the 1996 period.  This change is
primarily due to a reduction in the net gain (loss) on investment in real estate
and  premises  which was  partially  offset by increases in total fees and other
income and gains on the sale of loans and mortgage-backed  securities.  Net gain
(loss) on  investment  in real  estate and  premises  declined to a loss of $0.3
million  for the 1997  period  from a gain of $2.9  million  for the 1996 period
primarily  reflecting  the sale of investment  properties  that occurred  during
1996. Total fees and other income increased by $0.3 million to $20.1 million for
the 1997 period  compared with $19.8  million in the 1996 period.  This increase
was  generated  by greater  loan fees and  service  charges of $0.4  million and
income from  insurance and  securities  commissions  of $0.5 million,  partially
offset by lower loan servicing fees and deposit service fees.
         Total General and Administrative  expense increased by $2.1 million, or
2.6%, to $82.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 compared with the
same period in 1996.  Contributing to this increase were additional expenditures
of $2.8 million for  compensation  and benefits,  office occupancy and equipment
costs of $1.8  million  and  other G&A  expense  of $1.5  million.  Compensation
expense  increased  $3.2 million  primarily  due to the  acquisitions  discussed
earlier,  coupled with higher  commission  costs  stemming from  increased  loan
volume,  which was  partially  offset by a $0.5  million  reduction  in expenses
related to the Company's stock benefit plans.  The increase in office  occupancy
and equipment and other G&A costs  reflects the 1996  acquisitions  coupled with
Company's  investments  in  technological  improvements.  The  effect  of  these
increases was partially offset by a $3.3 million  reduction in federal insurance
premiums and a $0.7 million reduction in advertising costs.
         Income tax expense  decreased to $24.3  million for the nine months 
ended June 30, 1997 due to a 200 basis point decline in the effective tax rate
to 40.0% for the 1997 period  principally  as a result of changes in the New 
York State and New York City tax bad debt regulations, the effect of which more 
than offset the increase in pre-tax income.

BALANCE SHEET SUMMARY
- ---------------------
         Total assets at June 30, 1997 were $5.9 billion,  an increase of $544.3
million  since  September  30,  1996.  The  growth in  assets  is  predominantly
attributable to an increase of $482.4 million in total loans receivable held for
investment. Loan volume for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 was $2.1 billion
(of which $221.9 million  represents  bulk  purchases of loans),  an increase of
$335.0 million over the 1996 period.
         The  increase in total  liabilities  primarily  reflects an increase in
borrowed  funds of $536.7  million to $1.5  billion  and an  increase in deposit
liabilities of $73.3 million to $3.7 billion at June 30, 1997.
         Stockholders'  equity  increased  by $12.3  million  to $531.4  million
during the nine months ended June 30, 1997. The increase consists of earnings of
$36.5  million,  an increase in  unrealized  gains on  securities  classified as
available-for-sale,  net of tax, of $3.2 million and $5.2 million related to the
Company's stock benefit plans.  These increases were partially offset by the net
purchase of treasury stock of $22.6 million and the declaration of $10.0 million
in dividends. At June 30, 1997 book value per share amounted to $22.17.
