GREENPOINT FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.                    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of GreenPoint Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries (“GreenPoint” or the “Company”) are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s interim financial condition as of the dates indicated and the results of operations for the periods presented have been included. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. The results of operations for the interim periods shown are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year.

 

The Company adopted a plan to exit the manufactured housing lending business in December 2001. Current and comparative prior period consolidated statements of income present the results of continuing operations and discontinued operations separately.

 

The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements presented should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2001.

 

Accounting for Loan Sales

The Company sells loans both in the whole loan market and through various securitization vehicles.

 

When the Company has sold mortgages on a whole loan basis, in some cases it has retained the servicing rights related to the loans. In instances where the Company does not retain the servicing rights to the loans, the gain or loss on the sale is equal to the difference between the proceeds received and the book basis of the loans sold. In instances where the Company does retain the servicing rights, the gain or loss also depends in part on the fair value attributed to the servicing rights.

 

When GreenPoint has securitized certain mortgages, in some cases it has retained the servicing rights and one or more retained interests. In calculating the gain or loss on the sale, the Company allocates the cost basis of the loans sold between the assets sold, and the retained interests and servicing rights based on their relative fair values at the date of sale. A gain or loss is recognized as the difference between the cash proceeds from the sale and the allocated cost basis of the assets sold.

 

Retained Interests in Securitizations

Retained interests in securitizations include interest-only strips, subordinated certificates, transferor interests, demand notes and the recorded liabilities for limited recourse provided on mortgage loans.

 

The Company classifies its retained interests in securitizations as available for sale and carries these securities at fair value. Generally, if the fair value of retained interests declines below its carrying amount (excluding unrealized gains), the change in valuation is recognized in the consolidated statement of income and is classified as a change in valuation of retained interests. Unrealized gains are reported, net of applicable taxes, in accumulated other comprehensive income, as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

 

To obtain fair values, quoted market prices are used if available. Because market quotes are generally not available for retained interests, the Company generally estimates fair value based upon the present value of estimated future cash flows using assumptions of prepayments, defaults, loss severity rates, and discount rates that the Company believes market participants would use for similar assets and liabilities.

 

Servicing Assets

Servicing assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value based on defined risk strata and are amortized in proportion to and over the expected servicing period.

 

The Company stratifies its servicing assets based on the risk characteristics of the underlying loan pools and the assets are evaluated for impairment based on the risk characteristics. A valuation allowance is recognized through a charge to current earnings for servicing assets that have an amortized balance in excess of the current fair value.

The fair value of servicing assets is determined by calculating the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows, using assumptions of prepayments, defaults, servicing costs and discount rates that the Company believes market participants would use for similar assets.

 

Goodwill Amortization

Effective January 1, 2002, GreenPoint adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS 142) which resulted in discontinuing the amortization of goodwill. Goodwill, which is attributable to the consumer banking segment, will be carried at its January 1, 2002 book value of $395 million and will be tested, at least annually, for impairment. The Company completed its transitional impairment test in the first quarter of 2002 and did not recognize impairment, as the estimated fair value of the affected business unit exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill.

 

Discontinued Operations

In December 2001, GreenPoint adopted a plan to discontinue the manufactured housing lending business. In accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principals Board Statement No. 30, the consolidated statements of income have been presented to reflect this business as a discontinued operation and the income and expenses of the discontinued business have been reported separately. The projected future results of the discontinued operation were initially recorded as part of the loss on disposal of the business recorded in the fourth quarter of 2001. The projection reflected management’s estimate of the future revenues and expenses of the operation. The assumptions underlying these estimates are reviewed quarterly and the impact of revisions is included in current period earnings of the discontinued operation.

4.                    Recourse Arrangements, Retained Interests in Securitizations and Servicing Assets

 

The following describes the balances associated with recourse arrangements, the balances and activity in the corresponding retained interests, the balances and activity in servicing assets and the economic assumptions used in valuing the retained interests and servicing assets. As described in Note 1, in December 2001, GreenPoint formally adopted a plan to discontinue the manufactured housing lending business. As a result of the decision to discontinue this business, manufactured housing operating activities were reported as discontinued operations in GreenPoint’s consolidated statements of income.

 

Recourse Arrangements

GreenPoint has established liabilities for limited recourse provided on mortgage loans and recourse provided on manufactured housing loans that have been securitized or sold. The investors and the securitization trusts have no recourse to GreenPoint’s other assets for failure of debtors to pay when due, except for the retained interests related to the mortgage securitizations and the liability under the corporate guarantee related to the manufactured housing securitizations.

 

GreenPoint has loans sold with recourse with the following principal balances, maximum recourse exposures and recorded liabilities:

(3)             The recourse arrangements under the mortgage sale transactions represent a risk sharing arrangement in which GreenPoint has transferred the first 2% of losses to the purchaser.

At June 30, 2002, GreenPoint has five manufactured housing securitizations with principal balances of $1.6 billion, which have projected letter of credit draws equal to the maximum recourse exposure for those securitizations. The remaining manufactured housing securitizations, totaling $2.9 billion, have maximum recourse exposure that is $293 million more than GreenPoint’s projected letter of credit draws. This loss exposure will occur only if actual letter of credit draws exceed GreenPoint’s projections. GreenPoint records a liability based on the net present value of the projected letter of credit draws. At June 30, 2002, the projected draws exceed the recorded liability by $21 million, representing future interest expense.

 

In addition to the recourse arrangements described in the table above, at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, GreenPoint has provided limited recourse in the form of representations and warranties on mortgage loans with remaining principal balances of $11.8 billion and $10.9 billion, respectively. GreenPoint has established liabilities related to representations and warranties for mortgage loans of $21 million and $19 million, at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.

On a quarterly basis, GreenPoint reviews retained interests for impairment based on management’s best estimate of the fair value of future cash flows associated with the retained interests. GreenPoint also reviews the adequacy of the value of the recorded liability on a quarterly basis, based on management’s best estimate of future cash flows associated with the corporate guarantee. During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, GreenPoint recorded a $7 million charge to adjust its mortgage retained interests to fair value. The charge consists of $1 million for changes in assumptions regarding future prepayment rates, with the remainder representing higher expected loss rates.

 

Valuation Assumptions

There were no new securitizations recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The key economic assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the entire portfolio of retained interests at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 were as follows:

Servicing Assets

On a quarterly basis, GreenPoint reviews capitalized servicing rights for impairment. This review is performed based on risk strata, which are determined on a disaggregated basis given the predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans. For manufactured housing loans, the predominant risk characteristics are loan type and interest rate type. For mortgage loans, the predominant risk characteristics are loan type and interest rate.

5.                    Derivative Financial Instruments

 

GreenPoint enters into mandatory commitments to deliver mortgage whole loans to various investors and to issue private securities and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities (“forward delivery commitments”). The forward delivery commitments are used to manage the interest rate risk associated with mortgage loans and interest rate lock commitments made by GreenPoint to mortgage borrowers. The notional amounts of these contracts were $1.5 billion and $1.1 billion at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. The forward delivery commitments designated as fair value accounting hedges associated with mortgage loans had notional values of $714 million and $802 million at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. The notional amounts of forward delivery commitments used to manage the interest rate risk associated with interest rate lock commitments were $839 million and $249 million at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. The amount of hedge ineffectiveness for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was a gain of $2.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and is included in gain on sale of loans.

 

The notional amounts of derivatives do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties and, thus, are not a measure of the Company’s exposure through its use of derivatives. The amounts exchanged are determined by reference to the notional amounts and the other terms of the derivatives.

 

The risks inherent in derivatives are the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of its contract and the risk associated with changes in the fair values of the contracts due to movements in the underlying interest rates. The current credit exposure of derivatives is represented by the fair value of contracts with a positive fair value at the reporting date. To reduce credit risk, management may deem it necessary to obtain collateral.

 

6.                    Stock Incentive Plan

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company granted options to purchase 1,339,300 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain officers, at an exercise price of $43.54. These awards vest over three years on the anniversary dates of the awards.

During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, GreenPoint originated manufactured housing loans totaling $12 million and $103 million, respectively. These loans related to commitments outstanding at December 31, 2001 and were recorded at their estimated fair value.

 

Net income from discontinued operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 was $0.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The results included a gain on sale of loans, which were marked down to their estimated market value in the fourth quarter of 2001. The second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 results also reflect a write down of the 2002 loan originations to reflect their estimated fair value, and a $8 million charge associated with changes to the initial recorded estimates of the future results incorporated in the operating plan of the discontinued business segment.

9.                    Business Segments

 

The Company consists of three domestic business segments offering unique products and services. The Mortgage Banking segment specializes in Alt A and NoDoc mortgage loan products which are primarily obtained from the Company’s network of registered mortgage brokers. The Consumer Banking segment consists of 74 full service banking offices offering a variety of financial services to the Greater New York City area. The Balance Sheet Management segment includes earnings from the held for investment mortgage portfolios and other corporate investment and funding activities.

 

The segment disclosure also combines the Balance Sheet Management segment and the Consumer Banking segment into a subtotal. The subtotal, defined as the total banking franchise, represents the results of the Company’s traditional banking operations as distinguished from its mortgage banking operations.

 

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as described in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” The Company evaluates the performance of its business segments based on income before income taxes. Expenses under the direct control of each business segment and the expense of premises and equipment incurred to support business operations are allocated accordingly, by segment. Provision for loan losses are charged to the Balance Sheet Management segment in an amount equal to net charge-offs. The expenses relating to administrative units of the Company such as executive, finance and audit are not allocated to individual operating segments.

(1)             The efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing general and administrative expenses by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income.

(2)             Used in the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share.

(3)             Used in the calculation of common book value and tangible common book value ratios.

(4)             Managed assets are the sum of total assets and off-balance sheet managed receivables.

(5)             Managed receivables are the sum of on-balance sheet loans and off-balance sheet managed receivables.

(6)             For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges, earnings represent net income plus applicable income taxes and fixed charges of a consolidated subsidiary. Fixed charges represent interest expense on long-term debt and one-third (the portion deemed to be representative of the interest factor) of rents.

Forward Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements, which are based on management’s current expectations. These forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations, trends, financial results and business plans, including those relating to earnings growth; revenue growth; origination volume in the Company’s mortgage business; non-interest income levels, including fees from product sales; credit performance on loans made by the Company; tangible capital generation; margins on sales or securitizations of loans; market share; expense levels; and other business operations and strategies. For these statements, GreenPoint claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 to the extent provided by applicable law.

We caution you that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to: risks and uncertainties related to acquisitions, divestitures and terminating business segments, including related integration and restructuring activities; prevailing economic conditions; changes in interest rates, loan demand, real estate values, and competition, which can materially affect origination levels and gain on sale results in the Company’s mortgage business; the level of defaults, losses and prepayments on loans made by the Company, whether held in portfolio, sold in the whole loan secondary markets or securitized, which can materially affect required loan loss reserve levels and the Company’s periodic valuation of its retained interests from securitizations; changes in accounting principles, policies, and guidelines; adverse changes or conditions in capital or financial markets, which can adversely affect the ability of the Company to sell or securitize loan originations on a timely basis or at prices which are acceptable to the Company; actions by rating agencies and the affects of these actions on the Company’s businesses, operations and funding requirements; changes in any applicable law, rule, regulation or practice with respect to tax or legal issues; other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting the Company’s operations, pricing, products and services; and the risk factors or other uncertainties described from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Risk Factors section included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2002. The forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this report, and the Company assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

 

The Company regularly explores opportunities for acquisitions of and holds discussions with financial institutions and related businesses, and also regularly explores opportunities for acquisitions of liabilities and assets of financial institutions and other financial services providers.

2.                     OPERATING RESULTS - CONTINUING OPERATIONS

 

Overview of second quarter 2002 financial results:

 

                        Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2002 was $1.35 per diluted share, or $123 million, an increase of 14% over the second quarter of 2001. The results reflect strength in the Company’s specialty mortgage and consumer banking business. The consumer banking business achieved significant growth in core deposits and fees and the mortgage banking business increased new loan originations, as the Company continued to operate in a favorable market environment supported by strong execution.

 

                        Total mortgage loan originations for the second quarter of 2002 were $7.0 billion, an increase of 3% over the $6.8 billion originated during the second quarter of 2001 and 9% over the $6.4 billion of the first quarter.

 

                        Mortgage sales and securitizations totaled $6.0 billion resulting in realized gains of $86 million, compared with sales and securitizations of $4.4 billion and a gain of $109 million in the comparative quarter a year ago.

 

                        Net interest income from continuing operations totaled $191 million, an increase of 31% over the $146 million in the second quarter of 2001. The net interest margin remained strong at 4.06%, increasing from 3.84% in the second quarter of 2001.

 

                        Core deposits grew 13% during the second quarter to a balance of $5.8 billion. The core deposit balance increased $1 billion, or 21%, since the beginning of the year.

 

                        Consumer banking fees increased 15% over the first quarter of 2002 and were 36% higher than second quarter of 2001.

 

                        A $7 million charge was recorded in connection with the valuation of retained interests in securitizations of home equity lines of credit. The charge consisted of $1 million for changes in assumptions regarding future prepayment rates, with the remainder representing higher expected loss rates.

 

                        Asset quality in the mortgage portfolio remained very strong. Non-performing loans were 2.00% of mortgage loans held for investment, compared with 2.11% at the end of the second quarter a year ago.

 

                        GreenPoint continues to maintain a strong capital position with a leverage ratio of 8.05%, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of 12.07% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.77% at June 30, 2002.

 

                        The net income from the discontinued manufactured housing business was $0.2 million, reflecting a performance consistent with projections made at the time the business was discontinued.

Business Segment Results:

 

                        The Mortgage Banking business earned $95 million before taxes, down from $111 million in the second quarter of 2001. The reduction was a result of a decrease in loan sales and securitization revenues, partially offset by an increase in net interest income. Segment income for the six months ended June 30, 2002 increased to $187 million versus $158 million in the same period a year ago, principally due to an increase in net interest income from $39 million to $85 million as a result of a higher average balance in mortgage loans held for sale.

 

                        The Consumer Banking business, which includes spreads earned on average deposits of $11.0 billion and consumer banking fees, had income of $45 million and $89 million, respectively, for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of 73% and 62%, respectively over the year ago period. The growth reflects higher core deposit balances, wider spreads earned on those balances, and higher fee income which grew 36% and 27% respectively, over the comparable periods of 2001. The increase over the year ago period was also due to the discontinuance of goodwill amortization of $11 million and $23 million for the quarter and six months ended June, 30, 2001, due to an accounting rule change that took effect January 1, 2002.

 

                        The Balance Sheet Management segment derives earnings from the spread between yields on loans and marketable securities, and funding costs, which are comprised of deposit balances at their match-funded transfer-priced rates and wholesale funds. Net income before taxes was $90 million and $176 million, respectively, for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, compared with $78 million and $150 million in the same periods a year ago. The increase was attributable to higher average earning assets, both in the loan and securities portfolios.

 

                        When combined, the Consumer Banking and Balance Sheet Management segments present a complete picture of the Company’s traditional banking business. It portrays a depository institution which includes deposit gathering, associated fee income, and the investment of those deposits, and additional market borrowings. The total banking business earned before taxes, $135 million and $265 million, respectively, for the quarter and six months end June 30, 2002, compared with $104 million and $205 million in prior comparative periods. As such, it provided more than half of pretax income before unallocated corporate expenses and eliminations, with the mortgage banking segment providing the remainder.

Supplemental Performance Measurements - - Cash Earnings

 

Cash earnings is a non-GAAP measurement that is defined as net income from continuing operations less non-cash charges related to goodwill and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”). The non-cash expenses, unlike other expenses incurred by the Company, do not reduce GreenPoint’s tangible capital thereby enabling the Company to increase shareholder value through the growth of earning assets, increases in cash dividends and additional repurchases of the Company’s stock.

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income in continuing operations, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, increased by $44 million and $91 million, or 30% and 32%, to $193 million and $376 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 from $149 million and $285 million in the comparable periods in 2001. Net interest income benefited from an increase in average earning assets, which included an increase in mortgage loans held for investment, loans held for sale and investment securities. The net interest margin increased to 4.06% and 4.05% from 3.84% and 3.88%, respectively, in the year ago periods.

 

Average earning assets increased by $3.5 billion and $3.9 billion, or 23% and 27% to $19.1 billion in the quarter and $18.6 billion in the six month period from $15.5 billion and $14.6 billion a year ago. The increase reflected growth in loans held for sale and higher mortgage loans held for investment due to higher origination volume, and higher investment securities. The yield on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities declined in both the quarterly and year-to-date comparison due to declining market interest rates.

 

The growth in average earning assets was funded in part by a substantial growth in core deposits as the average balance increased 23% over the prior years second quarter. For the six month period, average core deposits was 20% higher than 2001. The growth reflects the success of the Company’s checking account promotions and the continued expansion of products and services offered by the banking franchise.

Provision for loan losses

 

The provision for loan losses was approximately $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2002 and $0.7 million for the first six months of 2002, down from $0.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively for the comparable 2001 periods. The provision equaled net charge-offs for all periods.

Non-interest income in the second quarter was $106 million, down 19% from the comparable period a year ago. The decline versus the year ago period was due to a smaller net gain on sale of mortgage loans and a $7 million charge related to retained interests in securitizations of home equity lines of credit. The charge consisted of $1 million for changes in assumptions regarding future pre-payment rates, with the remainder representing higher expected loss rates. The gain on sale of loans is described in further detail in the following paragraphs.

 

Income from fees and commissions was $23 million and $42 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, versus $16 million and $29 million in the year ago periods, which is partially offset by a decline of $2 million and $5 million in the gain on sale of securities. The increase included a $4 million and $7 million increase in banking fees due to an increase in the number of checking accounts. The $2 million and $5 million increase in loan servicing fees reflects the impact of a $3 million servicing asset impairment recorded in the first quarter of 2001.

Gain on sale of mortgage loans declined for the second quarter versus the comparable period a year ago, principally due to a lower average sale margin. Gain on sale of mortgage loans increased for the six months ended June 30, 2002 versus a year ago due to a higher volume of loan sales. The sale margin was 141 and 149 basis points compared to 241 and 231 basis points for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2001. The lower margin is the result of a change in product mix as the prior year included a higher proportion of Specialty products sold, and lower margins earned on Agency loans. As a percentage of total mortgage loans sold, specialty mortgages sold were 35% and 36% for the quarter and six months ended June 20, 2002, compared with 58% and 63% for the corresponding periods in 2001. The margins on Specialty products declined modestly to 295 basis points from 318 basis points in the second quarter of 2001 while Agency / Jumbo margins declined to 57 basis points from a relatively strong 97 basis points in the prior year's second quarter.

 

In the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company recognized a gain of $2 million and $6 million, respectively, related to previously securitized home equity lines of credit, compared to $12 million and $15 million in the year ago periods which included both previously and newly securitized home equity lines.

Excluding goodwill amortization expense in the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2001, total non-interest expense increased $12 and $28 million to $102 million and $202 million, respectively for the 2002 comparable periods. Salaries and benefits increased $5 million and $13 million principally due to additional staff and incentive commissions related to the higher mortgage volume. Employee stock ownership and stock plans expense increased $2 million and $4 million due to a higher average stock price versus the same periods a year ago. Increases of $4 million and $5 million in advertising expense in the quarter and year to date periods reflected consumer banking promotions associated with core deposit growth initiatives. The increase of $1 million and $7 million in other administrative costs was primarily associated with increased mortgage loan processing costs. The Company’s efficiency ratio, which relates operating expenses to revenues, was 34.6% for the second quarter of 2002, compared with 32.4% in the year ago quarter.

 

Income Tax Expense

 

Total income tax expense increased $4 million, or 6%, to $71 million for the second quarter of 2002 and $26 million, or 22%, to $142 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, versus the comparable periods a year ago. The rise in the current quarter and six month periods, compared to 2001, is due to higher pre-tax income partially offset by a decline in the effective tax rate from 38.44% and 39.02% in the second quarter and first six months, of 2001 to 36.9% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002.

Total loan originations during the quarter for the mortgage business were $7.0 billion, up from $6.8 billion during the second quarter of 2001 and for the six months ended June 30th were $13.5 billion, up from $11.1 billion for the comparable period a year ago. Specialty product originations were $2.5 billion and $4.6 billion for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, down from $3.1 billion and $5.4 billion in the comparable period a year ago. Agency / Jumbo originations increased from $3.3 billion to $3.9 billion and from $4.9 billion to $7.5 billion, respectively, for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 versus the same periods a year ago. The change in loan origination product mix reflects the declining interest rate environment and strong demand for mortgage refinancing.

 

Non-Performing Assets:

 

Non-performing assets consist of non-accruing loans and other real estate owned. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, non-performing assets decreased by 4%. The ratio of non-performing loans to loans held for investment fell to 2.00% at June 30, 2002 from 2.04% at December 31, 2001 while the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets fell to 1.02% at June 30, 2002 from 1.06% at December 31, 2001. GreenPoint attempts to convert these assets to interest-earning assets as quickly as possible, while minimizing potential losses on conversion.

Capital Ratios

 

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System establishes minimum capital requirements for the consolidated bank holding company, as well as for the Bank.

 

Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. These guidelines require minimum ratios of risk-based capital to risk adjusted assets of 4% for Tier 1 capital and 8% for total capital. The Federal Reserve Board also has guidelines for a leverage ratio that is designed to complement the risk-based capital ratios in determining the overall capital adequacy of banks and bank holding companies. A minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total assets of 3% is required for banks and bank holding companies, with an additional 100 to 200 basis points required for all but the highest rated institutions. Management believes, as of June 30, 2002, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

 

32



 

 

FDICIA, among other things, identifies five capital categories for insured depository institutions (well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized) and requires federal banking regulatory agencies to implement systems for “prompt corrective action” for insured depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements based on these categories. As of March 31, 2002, the Bank was well capitalized based on the prompt corrective action guidelines.

 

The most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum Tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios of 6%, 10% and 5%, respectively. There have been no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Company’s or Bank’s category.

 

The Company’s Total Capital and Tier 1 Capital (to risk weighted assets) improved from 11.72% and 10.10%, respectively, at December 31, 2001 to 13.77% and 12.07%, respectively at June 30, 2002. The improvement in the ratios is attributable to the growth in tangible capital resulting from earnings. The Company’s ratio of period-end stockholders’ equity to ending total assets at June 30, 2002 was 9.22% compared to 8.20% at December 31, 2001.

 

In October of 2001 the FDIC approved a final rule revising the regulatory capital treatment of recourse, direct credit substitutes, and residual interests in securitizations. The final rule is effective for transactions settled on or after January 1, 2002, with a one-year transition rule for transactions settled before that date. For transactions settled before January 1, 2002, banks can delay adoption of any provision until December 31, 2002 if adoption would result in an increased capital charge. The adoption of the new rule will not have a significant impact on GreenPoint’s risk-based capital ratios when fully implemented as of December 31, 2002.

Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition

 

Total assets of $20.1 billion at June 30, 2002 were essentially unchanged from $20.2 billion at December 31, 2001. The balance sheet reflects growth in the securities portfolio of $803 million offset by the first quarter sale of manufactured housing loans with a principal balance of $843 million. The sale proceeds of the manufactured housing loans were reinvested in securities available for sale. Loans receivable held for investment declined $177 million.

 

The balance of core deposits increased $1.0 billion since year-end 2001, reflecting the success of a variety of initiatives to attract checking accounts. This growth was offset in part by a decline of $646 million in the high cost term certificates of deposit. Market borrowings decreased $431 million since year-end 2001, reflecting the net additional funding provided through deposit growth.

GREENPOINT FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure
about Market Risk

 

Market Risk Management

 

Overview:

The Company’s market risk exposure is limited solely to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is defined as the sensitivity of the Company’s current and future earnings to changes in the level of market interest rates. It arises in the ordinary course of the Company’s business, as the repricing characteristics of its assets do not match those of its liabilities. The resulting interest rate risk is managed by adjustments to the Company’s investment portfolios and the maturities of market borrowings as well as various deposit pricing and derivative strategies.

 

Market Risk Management Process:

Management responsibility for interest rate risk resides with the Asset and Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”). The committee is chaired by the Chief Financial Officer and includes the Treasurer, the Head of Risk Management and the Company’s senior business-unit and financial executives. Interest rate risk management strategies are formulated and monitored by ALCO within policies and limits approved by the Board of Directors. These policies and limits set forth the maximum risk which the Board of Directors deems prudent, govern permissible investment securities and off-balance sheet instruments, and identify acceptable counterparties to securities and off-balance sheet transactions.

 

ALCO risk management strategies allow for the assumption of interest rate risk within the Board approved limits. The strategies are formulated based upon ALCO’s assessments of likely market developments and trends in the Company’s lending and consumer banking businesses. Strategies are developed with the aim of enhancing the Company’s net income and capital, while ensuring the risks to income and capital from adverse movements in interest rates are acceptable.

 

Interest Rate Risk Position:

The Company’s income is affected by changes in the level of market interest rates based upon mismatches between the repricing of its assets and liabilities. One measure of interest rate sensitivity is provided by the accompanying net gap analysis, which organizes assets and liabilities according to the time period in which they reprice or mature. For many of the Company’s assets and liabilities, the maturity or repricing date is not determinable with certainty. For example, the Company’s mortgage loans and its mortgage-backed securities can be prepaid before contractual amortization and/or maturity. Also, repricing of the Company’s non-time deposits is subject to management’s evaluation of the existing interest rate environment, current funding and liquidity needs, and other factors influencing the market competition for such deposits. The amounts in the accompanying table reflect management’s judgment of the most likely repricing schedule; actual results could vary from those detailed herein.

 

The difference between assets and liabilities repricing in a given period is one approximate measure of interest rate sensitivity. More assets than liabilities repricing in a period (a positive gap) implies earnings will rise as interest rates rise, and decline as interest rates decline. More liabilities than assets repricing (a negative gap) implies declining income as rates rise and rising income as rates fall.

 

These repricing relationships do not consider the impact that rate movements might have on other components of the Bank’s risk profile; for example, an increase in interest rates, while implying that earnings will rise in a positive gap period, might also result in higher credit or default risk due to a higher probability of borrowers being unable to pay the contractual payments on loans. Likewise, a decrease in rates might result in an increase in the risk that funds received from loan and securities prepayments are reinvested at lower rates and/or spreads. The management of these risks is discussed more fully in the section covering earnings at risk.

As of June 30, 2002, the cumulative volume of assets maturing or repricing within one year exceeded liabilities by $4.4 billion, or 21.7% of total assets. This compares to an excess of liabilities to assets less than one year of $396 million at March 31, 2002. As interest rates fell to near historic lows in the second quarter, the effective repricing schedule of the Company’s mortgage portfolio shortened based upon faster assumed prepayments. Also during the quarter, the Company’s core deposits, which are assumed to have relatively slow repricing characteristics, grew substantially. Certificates of deposits, with relatively short maturities, declined. Finally, in response to historically low interest rates, the Company extended its market borrowings, such as Federal Home Loan Bank advances and repurchase agreements.

Derivative Financial Instruments:

Interest rate derivatives, such as interest rate swaps and eurodollar futures, are periodically employed in the Company’s interest rate gap management. The notional amount of these instruments is not included in the company’s balance sheet. There were no outstanding derivative financial instruments hedging the Company’s interest rate gap position at June 30, 2002.

 

The Company does currently utilize derivative instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk associated with mortgage loan commitments and mortgage loans held for sale.

 

Prior to the closing of the loan, the Company generally extends an interest rate lock commitment to the borrower. The Company is exposed to subsequent changes in the level of market interest rates, and the spread over Treasuries required by investors. An increase in market interest rates or a widening of spreads will reduce the prices paid by investors and the resultant gain on sale. To mitigate this risk, at the time the Company extends the interest rate lock commitment to the borrower, the Company will enter into mandatory commitments to deliver mortgage whole loans to various investors, or to issue private securities and/or Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities (forward delivery commitments.) These commitments effectively establish the price the Company will receive for the related mortgage loan thereby minimizing the risk of subsequent changes in interest rates. At June 30, 2002, the Company had mandatory forward delivery commitments outstanding amounting to $1.5 billion.

 

Earnings at Risk Sensitivity Analysis:

The static gap analysis is an incomplete representation of interest rate risk for several reasons. It fails to account for potential changes in prepayment speeds on the Company’s mortgage loans and mortgage backed securities portfolios related to changes in market interest rates. In addition the static gap analysis does not capture the behavior of deposit balances which may vary with changes in the general level of interest rates and management’s pricing strategies. Finally, the gap analysis does not provide a clear presentation of the risks to income arising from options embedded in the Company’s balance sheet. Accordingly, ALCO makes extensive use of an earnings simulation model in the formulation of its market risk management strategy.

 

The earnings simulation model gives effect to management assumptions concerning the repricing of assets, liabilities and derivative financial instruments, as well as business volumes, under a variety of hypothetical interest rate scenarios. These hypothetical scenarios incorporate parallel shifts in interest rates of plus or minus 100, 200 and 300 basis points. In addition deterministic non-parallel flattening and steepening scenarios are also incorporated into the interest rate risk management process.

 

The most crucial management assumptions concern prepayments on the Company’s mortgage loan portfolio and the pricing of consumer deposits in various interest rate environments. As interest rates decline, mortgage prepayments tend to increase, reducing loan portfolio growth and lowering the portfolio’s average yield. Rates on non-maturity deposits rise and fall with the general level of interest rates, but tend to move less than proportionately. Rates offered on consumer certificates of deposit tend to move in close concert with market rates, though history suggests that they increase less rapidly when market rates rise. Extensive historical analysis shows that the Company’s deposit volumes are relatively insensitive to interest rate movements within the range encompassed in the parallel shift scenarios.

 

Based on this model, at June 30, 2002, the Company’s potential net interest income at risk to a gradual, parallel 200 basis point decline in market interest rates over the next twelve months, was a decline of approximately 4.7% in net income over the next twelve months. Conversely, a gradual 300 basis point increase in interest rates over the next twelve months would result in a projected increase in net interest income of 4.8% over what would be earned if rates remained constant. GreenPoint does not have significant exposure to risk on instruments held for trading purposes.

 

Management has included all derivative and other financial instruments that have a material effect in calculating the Company’s potential earnings at risk.

 

37



 

These measures of risk represent the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements at a particular point in time. The risk position is always changing. ALCO continuously monitors the Company’s risk profile as it changes, and alters the rate sensitivity to ensure limits are adhered to, and that the resulting risk profile is appropriate to its views on the likely course of interest rates and developments in its core businesses.

 

The fair values of the mortgage company’s servicing assets and retained interests from securitizations are directly affected by the level of prepayments associated with the underlying loans. As interest rates decline the value of these assets will decline. Conversely as interest rates rise, the value of these assets will increase.

 

Credit Risk Management

 

The Company originates mortgage and manufactured housing loans for its own portfolio and for disposition in the secondary markets in the form of whole loan sales and securitizations. In general, whole loan sales transfer the credit risk to the purchasers. In contrast, for loans placed in the portfolio, or for loans securitized, the Company retains all or much of the credit risk. As of December 31, 2001, the Company discontinued the origination of manufactured housing loans. However, it continues to service its manufactured housing loan portfolio, including its securitized loan pools.

 

GreenPoint Mortgage maintains underwriting policies, procedures and approval authorities appropriate to its business. The chief credit executive reports directly to the chief executive of the business, outside of the production organization. With respect to loans originated for whole loan sale to the secondary markets, where credit risk is transferred, underwriting criteria are established to meet investor requirements. An executive-level Risk Management Division determines the criteria required for loans which will be transferred to GreenPoint’s portfolio or sold through securitizations.

 

Oversight of the appraiser approval and appraisal review process is provided independent of the production organization. Appraisers are required to meet strict standards for approval by GreenPoint, and their performance is monitored on a regular basis. With oversight by Risk Management, a comprehensive quality control process is in place to ensure that loans being originated meet the Company’s underwriting standards, and that required operating procedures are followed. Loans are selected monthly on a pre and post funding basis for review by quality control analysts and staff appraisers.

 

Risk Management personnel monitor closely the performance of all loans on which the Company retains credit risk. On securitization or sale, expectations are set on the default, recovery and voluntary prepayment rates. Each pool of loans is reviewed monthly to ensure that performance is meeting those expectations. In the event performance does not meet expectations, the assumptions are revised. Final responsibility for these judgments resides with executive management, independent of the business unit.

 

Risk Management reviews monthly the delinquency and loss trends in all of the mortgage and manufactured housing loans serviced by the Company, whether or not it retains credit exposure. These reviews are intended to identify significant changes in credit quality which may indicate changes to the Company’s exposures or to the efficacy of its underwriting of loans sold to other investors. Such changes could prompt adjustments to the Company’s underwriting criteria or servicing procedures.

 

GreenPoint’s loan origination activity is geographically diversified throughout the U.S. GreenPoint began originating loans outside of New York State in 1996. The Company also closely monitors trends in delinquent and non-performing loans through cycles in the economy and in the real estate market. These economic and performance trends are analyzed in the ongoing fine-tuning of lending practices.

 

The Company uses various collection strategies and works to maintain contact with the borrowers in order to obtain repayment. Collection activities for GreenPoint Mortgage are centralized in a servicing unit in Columbus, Georgia. GreenPoint Credit’s remarketing activities are decentralized among its regional offices in order to repossess and liquidate collateral more effectively, thereby minimizing the loss severity. During the third quarter of 2002 certain collection activities previously conducted through the regional offices will be centralized in a new default management center in Atlanta, Georgia. The centralization is expected to enhance effective and timely collection activities and loss mitigation efforts.

 

38



 

The Company has set forth a policy for establishment and review of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses in order to provide for estimated costs related to the problem loans. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. However, such determination is susceptible to the effect of future unanticipated changes in general economic and market conditions that may affect the financial circumstances of borrowers and/or residential real estate values within the Company’s lending areas. The Company has also established a reserve to cover losses associated with repurchases of sold loans due to representation and warranty violations. This reserve was sized using historical loss data associated with loan sales and additional reserves are set aside as the volume of sold loans increases.
