The average rate paid on deposits at March 31, 2023 increased 59 basis points to 2.41% at March 31, 2023 from 1.82% at December 31, 2022 due to higher interest rates and a larger percentage of deposits consisting of higher-costing certificates of deposit.

Joseph Coccaro, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "As expected, the interest rate hikes impacted our net interest margin but we continue to record positive earnings. In light of the recent bank failures, the Bank continues to be prudent in its lending and interest rate risk management. Asset quality remains strong and the Hasbrouck Heights branch is approaching $100 million in deposits in under two years. Regulatory authorities recently approved a new branch in Upper Saddle River, NJ, which will be the Bank's seventh stand-alone branch. The Bank anticipates this new office will open in the second half of this year."
Mr. Coccaro further stated, "We expect loan growth to remain slow through the first half of the year as interest rates and inflation are expected to remain elevated and the housing inventories continue to be low. Increased interest rate liability costs may impact future earnings. "

Average Balance Sheets and Related Yields and Rates
The following tables present information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting annualized average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Average balances have been calculated using daily balances. Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances only. Loan fees are included in interest income on loans and are not material.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on net interest income. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. Changes attributable to changes in both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionally based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.
