Flushing Financial reports Q2 core EPS 32c, consensus 31c

John R. Buran, President and CEO: “Our second quarter results reflect the continued successful execution of our strategic priorities, building upon the foundational actions we took in the preceding quarters. We are pleased to report another quarter of net interest margin expansion, with both GAAP and Core NIM increasing, which speaks to the effectiveness of our balance sheet repositioning and disciplined approach to funding costs. Particularly encouraging is the strong year-over-year growth in our average noninterest-bearing deposits, which increased 6.4%, further bolstering our funding base. While we remain mindful of the persistent economic uncertainties, our focus on maintaining strong liquidity and capital has resulted in a tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio of 8.04%, a significant improvement from the prior year. The deliberate actions taken in late 2024 and early 2025 are yielding the anticipated benefits, enhancing our profitability and strengthening our financial position. As we look to the second half of the year, we will maintain our disciplined underwriting standards and proactive risk management, ensuring we are well-positioned to navigate the evolving landscape and continue to deliver long-term value to our shareholders.”
