Flushing Financial Corporation (FFIC-7.59%) has submitted its Form 10-K filing for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
The filing includes financial statements showing a net loss of $31.3 million for the year, compared to a net income of $28.7 million in the previous year. This decrease is primarily attributed to a restructuring transaction that resulted in a pre-tax loss of $76.0 million.
Net interest income increased by $2.9 million to $182.0 million, driven by a $449.0 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. However, the net interest margin declined by nine basis points to 2.15% due to rising funding costs.
Interest income rose by 15.9% to $465.4 million, while interest expense increased by 27.4% to $283.4 million, reflecting higher interest rates and increased balances of interest-bearing liabilities.
The company recorded a provision for credit losses of $9.6 million, slightly down from $10.5 million in the prior year. Non-performing loans increased to $33.3 million at year-end.
Non-interest income decreased significantly to a loss of $57.4 million, mainly due to losses from the sale of securities as part of the restructuring transaction.
Non-interest expenses rose by 6.1% to $163.3 million, with increases in salaries, employee benefits, and FDIC insurance premiums.
Total assets as of December 31, 2024, were $9.0 billion, with total deposits of $7.2 billion and stockholders’ equity of $724.5 million.
The company completed a $70.0 million common equity issuance to support a balance sheet restructuring, which included selling $444.8 million of securities and repositioning borrowings.
Flushing Financial Corporation continues to focus on managing interest rate risk, maintaining credit discipline, and preserving liquidity and capital.
