Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.Basis of Presentation

Investors Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation that was incorporated in December 2013 to be the successor to Investors Bancorp, Inc. (“Old Investors Bancorp”) upon completion of the mutual-to-stock conversion of Investors Bancorp, MHC, the top tier holding company of Old Investors Bancorp. Old Investors Bancorp was the former mid tier holding company for Investors Bank. Prior to completion of the second step conversion, approximately 62% of the shares of common stock of Old Investors Bancorp were owned by Investors Bancorp, MHC. In conjunction with the second step conversion, Investors Bancorp, MHC merged into Old Investors Bancorp (and ceased to exist), and Old Investors Bancorp merged into the Company and the Company became its successor under the name Investors Bancorp, Inc. The second step conversion was completed May 7, 2014. The Company raised net proceeds of $2.15 billion by selling a total of 219,580,695 shares of common stock at $10.00 per share in the second step stock offering and issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to the Investors Charitable Foundation. Concurrent with the completion of the stock offering, each share of Old Investors Bancorp common stock owned by public stockholders (stockholders other than Investors Bancorp, MHC) was exchanged for 2.55 shares of Company common stock. A total of 137,560,968 shares of Company common stock were issued in the exchange. The conversion was accounted for as a capital raising transaction by entities under common control. The historical financial results of Investors Bancorp, MHC are immaterial to the results of the Company and therefore the net assets of Investors Bancorp, MHC has been reflected as an increase to shareholders' equity. In addition, the second step conversion resulted in the accelerated vesting of all outstanding stock awards as of the conversion date. The withholding of shares for payment of taxes with respect to these awards resulted in treasury stock of 1,101,694 shares.

As a result of the conversion, all share information has been revised to reflect the 2.55- to- one exchange ratio. Financial information presented in this Form 10-Q is derived from the consolidated financial statements of Old Investors Bancorp and subsidiaries.

In the opinion of management, all the adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and the consolidated results of operations for the unaudited periods presented have been included. The results of operations and other data presented for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for subsequent periods or the full year results.

Certain information and note disclosures usually included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the preparation of the Form 10-Q. The consolidated financial statements presented should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s December 31, 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to current year presentation.

2.Business Combinations

On January 10, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of Gateway Community Financial Corp., the federally-chartered holding company for GCF Bank, ("Gateway") which operated 4 branches in Gloucester County, New Jersey. After the purchase accounting adjustments, the Company added $254.7 million in customer deposits and acquired $195.1 million in loans. This transaction generated $1.9 million in core deposit premium. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting as prescribed by FASB Accounting Standards Codification, (“ASC”) 805 “Business Combinations”, as amended. Under this method of accounting, the purchase price has been allocated to the respective assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, net of applicable income tax effects. The acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase gain of $1.5 million, net of tax. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company issued 1,945,079 shares to Investors Bancorp, MHC which was determined using the closing average twenty day stock price of Investors Bancorp's common stock. GCF Bank was merged into the Bank as of the acquisition date.

As the Company finalizes its analysis of these assets, there may be adjustments to the recorded carrying values.

On December 6, 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of Roma Financial Corporation ("Roma Financial") which operated 26 branches in Burlington, Ocean, Mercer, Camden and Middlesex counties, New Jersey. After the purchase accounting adjustments, the Company added $1.34 billion in customer deposits and acquired $991.0 million in loans. This transaction generated $8.9 million in core deposit premium. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting as prescribed by ASC 805 “Business Combinations”, as amended. Under this method of accounting, the purchase price has been allocated to the respective assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, net of applicable income tax effects. The excess cost over fair value of net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill. In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued 66,089,974 shares of its common stock, of which 16,255,845 shares went to Roma's public stockholders and 49,834,130 shares were issued to Investors Bancorp MHC. The purchase price for Roma Financial was determined using the exchange ratio of 0.8653 stated in the merger agreement and the closing stock price on December 6, 2013 of Investors Bancorp's common stock. The value assigned to the Roma MHC are based on the exchange ratio of 0.8653 and the difference of the appraised value of the Roma Financial Corporation franchise less the value given to the public stockholders.

Fair Value Measurement of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed

Described below are the methods used to determine the fair values of the significant assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Gateway and Roma Financial acquisitions:

Securities.The estimated fair values of the investment securities classified as available for sale were calculated utilizing Level 1 inputs. The prices for these instruments are based upon sales of the securities shortly after the acquisition date. Investment securities classified as Held to Maturity were valued using a combination of Level 1and Level 2 inputs. The Company reviewed the data and assumptions used in pricing the securities by its third party provider to ensure the highest level of significant inputs are derived from market observable data.

Loans. The acquired loan portfolio was valued based on guidance from ASC 820-10 which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Level 3 was utilized to value the portfolio and included the use of present value techniques employing cash flow estimates and the incorporated assumptions that marketplace participants would use in estimating fair values. In instances where reliable market information was not available, the Company used its own assumptions in an effort to determine reasonable fair value. Specifically, the Company utilized three separate fair value analyses we believe a market participant might employ in estimating the entire fair value adjustment required under ASC 820-10. The three separate fair valuation methodologies used are: 1) interest rate loan fair value analysis, 2) general credit fair value adjustment and 3) specific credit fair value adjustment.

To prepare the interest rate fair value analysis, loans were assembled into groupings by characteristics such as loan type, term, collateral and rate. Market rates for similar loans were obtained from various external data sources and reviewed by Company management for reasonableness. The average of these rates was used as the fair value interest rate a market participant would utilize. A present value approach was utilized to calculate the interest rate fair value adjustment.

The general credit fair value adjustment was calculated using a two part general credit fair value analysis; 1) expected lifetime losses and 2) estimated fair value adjustment for qualitative factors. The expected lifetime losses were calculated using an average of historical losses of the Company, the acquired banks and peer banks. The adjustment related to qualitative factors was impacted by general economic conditions, the risk related to lack of familiarity with the originator's underwriting process.

Table of Contents

To calculate the specific credit fair value adjustment the Company reviewed the acquired loan portfolio for loans meeting the definition of an impaired loan as defined by ASC 310-30. Loans meeting this criteria were reviewed by comparing the contractual cash flows to expected collectible cash flows. The aggregate expected cash flows less the acquisition date fair value will result in an accretable yield amount. The accretable yield amount will be recognized over the life of the loans on a level yield basis as an adjustment to yield.

Deposits / Core Deposit Premium.Core deposit premium represent the value assigned to demand, interest checking, money market and savings accounts acquired as part of an acquisition. The core deposit premium value represents the future economic benefit, including the present value of future tax benefits, of the potential cost savings from acquiring core deposits as part of an acquisition compared to the cost alternative funding sources and is valued utilizing Level 1 inputs.

Certificates of deposit (time deposits) are not considered to be core deposits as they are assumed to have a low expected average life upon acquisition. The fair value of certificates of deposits represents the present value of the certificates' expected contractual payments discounted by market rates for similar CD's and is valued utilizing Level 2 inputs.

Borrowed Funds.The present value approach was used to determine the fair value of the borrowed funds acquired during 2014 and 2013. The fair value of the liability represents the present value of the expected payments using the current rate of a replacement borrowing of the same type and remaining term to maturity and is valued utilizing Level 2 inputs.

The majority of the gross unrealized losses relate to our mortgage-backed-security portfolio which are issued by U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises. These securities have been positively impacted by the recent decrease in intermediate-term market interest rates. The remaining gross unrealized losses relate to our corporate and other debt securities whose estimated fair value of has been adversely impacted by the current economic environment, current market interest rates, wider credit spreads and credit deterioration subsequent to the purchase of these securities. The portfolio consists of 34 pooled trust preferred securities (“TruPS”), principally issued by banks. At June 30, 2014, the amortized cost and estimated fair values of the trust preferred portfolio was $31.7 million and $61.9 million, respectively with 2 securities in an unrealized loss position (see "OTTI" for further discussion). The Company has no intent to sell, nor is it more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell, the debt securities in an unrealized loss position before the recovery of their amortized cost basis or maturity.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the Company’s pooled trust preferred securities as of June 30, 2014 excluding one trust preferred security which the Company previously recorded a net other-than-temporary impairment charge which resulted in a zero net book balance for the security. At June 30, 2014, the security had a fair value of $26,000. The Company does not own any single-issuer trust preferred securities.

Excess subordination represents the amount of remaining performing collateral that is in excess of the amount needed to pay off a specified class of bonds and all classes senior to the specified class. Excess subordination reduces an investor’s potential risk of loss on their investment as excess subordination absorbs principal and interest shortfalls in the event underlying issuers are not able to make their contractual payments.

A portion of the Company’s securities are pledged to secure borrowings. The contractual maturities of mortgage-backed securities are generally less than 20 years; with effective lives expected to be shorter due to anticipated prepayments. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities due to prepayment or early call privileges of the issuer, therefore, mortgage-backed securities are not included in the following table. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities at June 30, 2014, by contractual maturity, are shown below.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment (“OTTI”)

We conduct a quarterly review and evaluation of the securities portfolio to determine if the value of any security has declined below its cost or amortized cost, and whether such decline is other-than-temporary. If a determination is made that a debt security is other-than-temporarily impaired, the Company will estimate the amount of the unrealized loss that is attributable to credit and all other non-credit related factors. The credit related component will be recognized as an other-than-temporary impairment charge in non-interest income. The non-credit related component will be recorded as an adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax.

Through the use of a valuation specialist, we evaluate the credit and performance of each underlying issuer of our trust preferred securities by deriving probabilities and assumptions for default, recovery and prepayment/amortization for the expected cash flows for each security. At June 30, 2014, management deemed that the present value of projected cash flows for each security was greater than the book value and did not recognized any additional OTTI charges for the period ended June 30, 2014. At June 30, 2014, non credit-related OTTI recorded on the previously impaired pooled trust preferred securities was $25.7 million ($15.2 million after-tax).

The following table presents the changes in the credit loss component of the impairment loss of debt securities that the Company has written down for such loss as an other-than-temporary impairment recognized in earnings.

The credit loss component of the impairment loss represents the difference between the present value of expected future cash flows and the amortized cost basis of the securities prior to considering credit losses. The beginning balance represents the credit loss component for debt securities for which other-than-temporary impairment occurred prior to the period presented. If other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in earnings for credit impaired debt securities, they would be presented as additions in two components based upon whether the current period is the first time a debt security was credit impaired (initial credit impairment) or

is not the first time a debt security was credit impaired (subsequent credit impairments). The credit loss component is reduced if the Company sells, intends to sell or believes it will be required to sell previously credit impaired debt securities. Additionally, the credit loss component is reduced if (i) the Company receives cash flows in excess of what it expected to receive over the remaining life of the credit impaired debt security, (ii) the security matures or (iii) the security is fully written down.

Realized Gains and Losses

Gains and losses on the sale of all securities are determined using the specific identification method. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 the Company recognized net gains on available-for-sale securities of $108,000 and $590,000. In December 2013, regulatory agencies adopted a rule on the treatment of certain collateralized debt obligations backed by trust preferred securities to implement sections of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, known as the Volcker Rule. As a result of the evaluation of the impact of the Volcker Rule, the Company reclassified one trust preferred security to available-for-sale. The Company sold the security during the six months ended June 30, 2014 resulting in gross realized gains of $470,000. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 there were no sales of securities from held-to-maturity portfolio, however for the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized a gain of $50,000 on a TruP security which was entirely liquidated by its Trustee.

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company realized a $7,000 gain on capital distributions of equity securities from the available-for-sale portfolio. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, proceeds from sales of securities from the available-for-sale portfolio were $56.0 million, which resulted in gross realized gains of $846,100 and $162,300 gross realized losses as well as a $7,000 gain on capital distributions of equity securities. There were no sales of securities from held-to-maturity portfolio for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

The allowance for loan losses is the estimated amount considered necessary to cover credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses that is charged against income. In determining the allowance for loan losses, we make significant estimates and therefore, have identified the allowance as a critical accounting policy. The methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting policy by management because of the high degree of judgment involved, the subjectivity of the assumptions used, and the potential for changes in the economic environment that could result in changes to the amount of the recorded allowance for loan losses.

The allowance for loan losses has been determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, under which we are required to maintain an allowance for probable losses at the balance sheet date. We are responsible for the timely and periodic determination of the amount of the allowance required. We believe that our allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover specifically identifiable losses, as well as estimated losses inherent in our portfolio for which certain losses are probable but not specifically identifiable. Loans acquired are marked to fair value on the date of acquisition with no valuation allowance reflected in the allowance for loan losses. In conjunction with the quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss, the Company performs an analysis on acquired loans to determine whether or not there has been subsequent deterioration in relation to those loans. If deterioration has occurred, the Company will include these loans in their calculation of the allowance for loan loss. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an allowance of $842,000 related to PCI loans acquired.

Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The analysis of the allowance for loan losses has two components: specific and general allocations. Specific allocations are made for loans determined to be impaired. A loan is deemed to be impaired if it is a commercial loan with an outstanding balance greater than $1.0 million and on non-accrual status, loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”), and other commercial loans greater than $1.0 million if management has specific information that it is probable they will not collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses. The general allocation is determined by segregating the remaining loans, including those loans not meeting the Company’s definition of an impaired loan, by type of loan, risk rating (if applicable) and payment history. In addition, the Company also considers whether residential loans are fixed or adjustable rate. We also analyze historical loss experience, delinquency trends, general economic conditions, geographic concentrations, and industry and peer comparisons. This analysis establishes factors that are applied to the loan groups to determine the amount of the general allocations. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revisions based upon changes in economic and real estate market conditions. Actual loan losses may be significantly more than the allowance for loan losses we have established which could have a material negative effect on our financial results.

On a quarterly basis, management’s Allowance for Loan Loss Committee reviews the current status of various loan assets in order to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. In this evaluation process, specific loans are analyzed to determine their potential risk of loss. This process includes all loans, concentrating on non-accrual and classified loans. Each non-accrual or classified loan is evaluated for potential loss exposure. Any shortfall results in a recommendation of a specific allowance or charge-off if the likelihood of loss is evaluated as probable. To determine the adequacy of collateral on a particular loan, an estimate of the fair value of the collateral is based on the most current appraised value available. This appraised value is then reduced to reflect estimated liquidation expenses.

management's attempt to ensure that the overall allowance reflects a margin for imprecision and the uncertainty that is inherent in estimates of probable credit losses.

The results of this quarterly process are summarized along with recommendations and presented to Executive and Senior Management for their review. Based on these recommendations, loan loss allowances are approved by Executive and Senior Management. All supporting documentation with regard to the evaluation process, loan loss experience, allowance levels and the schedules of classified loans are maintained by the Accounting and Credit Risk Departments. A summary of loan loss allowances and the methodology employed to determine such allowances is presented to the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis.

Our primary lending emphasis has been the origination of commercial real estate loans, multi-family loans and the origination and purchase of residential mortgage loans. We also originate commercial and industrial loans, home equity loans and home equity lines of credit. These activities resulted in a concentration of loans secured by real property located in New Jersey and New York. Based on the composition of our loan portfolio, we believe the primary risks are increases in interest rates, a continued decline in the general economy, and a further decline in real estate market values in New Jersey, New York and surrounding states. Any one or combination of these events may adversely affect our loan portfolio resulting in increased delinquencies, loan losses and future levels of loan loss provisions. We consider it important to maintain the ratio of our allowance for loan losses to total loans at an adequate level given current economic conditions and the composition of the portfolio. As a substantial amount of our loan portfolio is collateralized by real estate, appraisals of the underlying value of property securing loans are critical in determining the amount of the allowance required for specific loans. Assumptions for appraisal valuations are instrumental in determining the value of properties. Overly optimistic assumptions or negative changes to assumptions could significantly impact the valuation of a property securing a loan and the related allowance determined. The assumptions supporting such appraisals are carefully reviewed by management to determine that the resulting values reasonably reflect amounts realizable on the related loans.

For commercial real estate, multi-family and construction loans, the Company obtains an appraisal for all collateral dependent loans upon origination and an updated appraisal in the event interest or principal payments are 90 days delinquent or when the timely collection of such income is considered doubtful. This is done in order to determine the specific reserve needed upon initial recognition of a collateral dependent loan as non-accrual and/or impaired. In subsequent reporting periods, as part of the allowance for loan loss process, the Company reviews each collateral dependent commercial real estate loan previously classified as non-accrual and/or impaired and assesses whether there has been an adverse change in the collateral value supporting the loan. The Company utilizes information from its commercial lending officers, its credit department and loan workout department’s knowledge of changes in real estate conditions in our lending area to identify if possible deterioration of collateral value has occurred. Based on the severity of the changes in market conditions, management determines if an updated appraisal is warranted or if downward adjustments to the previous appraisal are warranted. If it is determined that the deterioration of the collateral value is significant enough to warrant ordering a new appraisal, an estimate of the downward adjustments to the existing appraised value is used in assessing if additional specific reserves are necessary until the updated appraisal is received.

For homogeneous residential mortgage loans, the Company’s policy is to obtain an appraisal upon the origination of the loan and an updated appraisal in the event a loan becomes 90 days delinquent. Thereafter, the appraisal is updated every two years if the loan remains in non-performing status and the foreclosure process has not been completed. Management adjusts the appraised value of residential loans to reflect estimated selling costs and declines in the real estate market.

Management believes the potential risk for outdated appraisals for impaired and other non-performing loans has been mitigated due to the fact that the loans are individually assessed to determine that the loan’s carrying value is not in excess of the fair value of the collateral. Loans are generally charged off after an analysis is completed which indicates that collectability of the full principal balance is in doubt.

Our allowance for loan losses reflects probable losses considering, among other things, the continued adverse economic conditions, the actual growth and change in composition of our loan portfolio, the level of our non-performing loans and our charge-off experience. We believe the allowance for loan losses reflects the inherent credit risk in our portfolio.

Although we believe we have established and maintained the allowance for loan losses at adequate levels, additions may be necessary if the current economic environment continues or deteriorates. Management uses the best information available; however, the level of the allowance for loan losses remains an estimate that is subject to significant judgment and short-term change. In addition, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance, as an integral part of their examination process, will periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors. For non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans the Company analyzes the loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk and assesses the probability of collection for each type of class. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass - “Pass” assets are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor (or guarantors, if any) or by the fair value, less cost to acquire and sell, of any underlying collateral in a timely manner.

Special Mention - A “Special Mention” asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit

Table of Contents

position at some future date. Special Mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Residential loans delinquent 30-89 days are considered special mention.

Substandard - A “Substandard” asset is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Residential loans delinquent 90 days or greater are considered substandard.

Doubtful - An asset classified “Doubtful” has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of currently known facts, conditions, and values.

Loss - An asset or portion thereof, classified “Loss” is considered uncollectible and of such little value that its continuance on the institution’s books as an asset, without establishment of a specific valuation allowance or charge-off, is not warranted. This classification does not necessarily mean that an asset has no recovery or salvage value; but rather, there is much doubt about whether, how much, or when the recovery will occur. As such, it is not practical or desirable to defer the write-off.

The following tables present the risk category of loans as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 by class of loans excluding PCI loans:

Included in the non-accrual table above are TDR loans whose payment status is current but the Company has classified as non-accrual as the loans have not maintained their current payment status for six consecutive months under the restructured terms and therefore do not meet the criteria for accrual status. As of June 30, 2014, these loans are comprised of 12 residential loans totaling $3.7 million. There were 8 residential TDR loans totaling $2.8 million which were also 30-89 days delinquent and classified as non-accrual. The Company has no loans past due 90 days or more delinquent that are still accruing interest. PCI loans are excluded from non-accrual loans, as they are recorded at fair value based on the present value of expected future cash flows. As of June 30, 2014, PCI

Table of Contents

loans totaled $21.9 million of which $11.5 million were current and $10.4 million were 90 days or more delinquent. As of December 31, 2013, PCI loans totaled $36.0 million of which $19.6 million were current and $16.4 million were 90 days or more delinquent.

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, loans meeting the Company’s definition of an impaired loan were primarily collateral dependent loans which totaled $60.5 million and $66.7 million, respectively, with allocations of the allowance for loan losses of $1.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, interest income received and recognized on these loans totaled $466,000 and $457,000, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, interest income received and recognized on these loans totaled $1.1 million for both periods.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

On a case-by-case basis, the Company may agree to modify the contractual terms of a borrower’s loan to remain competitive and assist customers who may be experiencing financial difficulty, as well as preserve the Company’s position in the loan. If the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and a concession has been made at the time of such modification, the loan is classified as a troubled debt restructured loan.

Substantially all of our troubled debt restructured loan modifications involve lowering the monthly payments on such loans through either a reduction in interest rate below a market rate, an extension of the term of the loan or a combination of these two methods. These modifications rarely result in the forgiveness of principal or accrued interest. In addition, we frequently obtain additional collateral or guarantor support when modifying commercial loans. Non-accruing restructured loans may be returned to accrual status when there has been a sustained period of repayment performance (generally six consecutive months of payments) and both principal and interest are deemed collectible.

All TDRs are impaired loans, which are individually evaluated for impairment, as discussed above. Collateral dependant impaired loans classified as TDRs were written down to the estimated fair value of the collateral. There were no charges-offs for collateral dependant TDRs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. For three and six months ended June 30, 2013,

Table of Contents

charges-offs for collateral dependant TDRs were $667,000 and $3.4 million, respectively. The allowance for loan losses associated with the TDRs presented in the above tables totaled $1.9 million and $2.1 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Residential mortgage loan modifications primarily involved the reduction in loan interest rate and extension of loan maturity dates. All residential loans deemed to be TDRs were modified to reflect a reduction in interest rates to current market rates. Several residential TDRs include step up interest rates in their modified terms which will impact their weighted average yield in the future. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, there was 1 residential TDR that had a weighted average modified interest rate of approximately 3.25% compared to a yield of 5.25% prior to modification. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, there were 7 residential TDRs that had a weighted average modified interest rate of approximately 3.57% compared to a yield of 5.18%.

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, there were 6 residential TDRs that had a weighted average modified interest rate

of approximately 3.43% compared to a rate of 5.17% prior to modification. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, there were 11 residential TDRs that had a weighted average modified interest rate of approximately 3.44% compared to a yield of 5.37% prior to modification.

Commercial loan modifications which qualified as a TDR comprised of terms of maturity being extended and reduction in interest rates to current market terms. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company originated 1 commercial loan at market terms for which the borrower had an existing troubled loan relationship. The borrower continues to show financial difficulties and therefore the origination of the new loan totaling $1.1 million was classified as a TDR.

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, there was 1 commercial real estate TDR which had a weighted average modified interest rate of approximately 2.88% as compared to a yield of 6.38% prior to modification. There was 1 multi-family TDR that had a weighted average modified interest rate of approximately 2.88% as compared to a rate of 6.73% prior to modification for the three months ended June 30, 2013. There were 4 commercial real estate TDRs that had a weighted average modified interest rate of approximately 5.26% compared to a rate of 7.29% and 3 multi-family TDRs that had a weighted average modified interest rate of approximately 3.40% as compared to a rate of 8.61% prior to modification for the six months ended June 30, 2013. For three and six months ended June 30, 2013, there was 1 construction TDR that had a weighted average modified interest rate of approximately 3.75% as compared to a rate of 5.00% prior to modification.

Loans modified as TDRs in the 12 months prior to June 30, 2014, for which there was a payment default consisted of three residential loans with a recorded investment of $882,000 at June 30, 2014. Loans modified as TDRs in the 12 months prior to June 30, 2013, for which there was a payment default consisted of two residential loans with a recorded investment of $1.1 million at June 30, 2013.

Loan Sales

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company reclassified a pool of non-performing and PCI loans to loans held for sale. These loans were transfered at $26.0 million, which represented lower of cost or market at the time of transfer. The sale of the non-performing and PCI loans was completed during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and resulted in a net gain of approximately $1.3 million, of which $552,000 was included in gain on loan transactions and $701,000 was recorded as a recovery through the allowance.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company sold a pool of non-performing residential loans for $9.0 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company sold $14.9 million of non-performing residential loans and one construction loan for $8.2 million. There was no gain or loss associated with any of the sales, as the loans were previously written down to estimated fair value.

Mortgage servicing rights are accounted for using the amortization method. Under this method, the Company amortizes the loan servicing asset in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. During 2008, the Company began selling loans on a servicing-retained basis. Loans that were sold on this basis, amounted to $1.62 billion and $1.71 billion at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 respectively, all of which relate to residential mortgage loans. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the servicing asset, included in intangible assets, had an estimated fair value of $14.4 million and $14.7 million, respectively. Fair value was based on expected future cash flows considering a weighted average discount rate of 10.16% , a weighted average constant prepayment rate on mortgages of 10.08% and a weighted average life of 7.1 years.

Core deposit premiums are amortized using an accelerated method and having a weighted average amortization period of 10 years. As the result of the acquisition of Gateway Financial in January 2014, the Company recorded $1.9 million in core deposit premiums.

9. Net Periodic Benefit Plan Expense

The Company has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Wage Replacement Plan (SERP). The SERP is a nonqualified, defined benefit plan which provides benefits to employees as designated by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors if their benefits and/or contributions under the pension plan are limited by the Internal Revenue Code. The Company also has a nonqualified, defined benefit plan which provides benefits to certain directors. The SERP and the directors’ plan are unfunded and the costs of the plans are recognized over the period that services are provided.

The components of net periodic benefit cost are as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30,			Six Months Ended June 30,
	2014		2013	2014		2013

Net gain	158		165	316		330
Total net periodic benefit cost	$	1,093	866	$	2,186	1,733

Due to the unfunded nature of these plans, no contributions have been made or were expected to be made to the SERP and Directors’ plans during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

The Company also maintains a defined benefit pension plan. Since it is a multiemployer plan, costs of the pension plan are based on contributions required to be made to the pension plan. We contributed $2.4 million to the defined benefit pension plan during the six months ended June 30, 2014. We anticipate contributing funds to the plan to meet any minimum funding requirements for the remainder of 2014.

In connection with the acquisition of Roma Financial on December 6, 2013, the Company terminated the Roma defined benefit pension plan, with remaining liability being been fully accrued. In connection with the acquisition of Gateway on January 10, 2014, the defined benefit pension plan was merged into Investors existing defined benefit pension plan.

11. Fair Value Measurements

We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Our securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, we may be required to record at fair value other assets or liabilities on a non-recurring basis, such as held-to-maturity securities, mortgage servicing rights (“MSR”), loans receivable and real estate owned (“REO”). These non-recurring fair value adjustments involve the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. Additionally, in connection with our mortgage banking activities we have commitments to fund loans held for sale and commitments to sell loans, which are considered free-standing derivative instruments, the fair values of which are not material to our financial condition or results of operations.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, we group our assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:


•	Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.


•	Level 2 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

•

Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. The results cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability.

We base our fair values on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Securities available-for-sale

Our available-for-sale portfolio is carried at estimated fair value on a recurring basis, with any unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income/loss in stockholders’ equity. The fair values of available-for-

Table of Contents

sale securities are based on quoted market prices (Level 1), where available. The Company obtains one price for each security primarily from a third-party pricing service (pricing service), which generally uses quoted or other observable inputs for the determination of fair value. The pricing service normally derives the security prices through recently reported trades for identical or similar securities, making adjustments through the reporting date based upon available observable market information. For securities not actively traded (Level 2), the pricing service may use quoted market prices of comparable instruments or discounted cash flow analyses, incorporating inputs that are currently observable in the markets for similar securities. Inputs that are often used in the valuation methodologies include, but are not limited to, benchmark yields, credit spreads, default rates, prepayment speeds and non-binding broker quotes. As the Company is responsible for the determination of fair value, it performs quarterly analyses on the prices received from the pricing service to determine whether the prices are reasonable estimates of fair value. Specifically, the Company compares the prices received from the pricing service to a secondary pricing source. Additionally, the Company compares changes in the reported market values and returns to relevant market indices to test the reasonableness of the reported prices. The Company’s internal price verification procedures and review of fair value methodology documentation provided by independent pricing services has not historically resulted in adjustment in the prices obtained from the pricing service.

The following table provides the level of valuation assumptions used to determine the carrying value of our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

The Volcker Rule requires specific treatment of certain collateralized debt obligation backed by trust preferred securities.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

Mortgage Servicing Rights, net

Mortgage servicing rights (MSR) are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. The estimated fair value of MSR is obtained through independent third party valuations through an analysis of future cash flows, incorporating estimates of assumptions market participants would use in determining fair value including market discount rates, prepayment speeds, servicing income, servicing costs, default rates and other market driven data, including the market’s perception of future interest rate movements. The prepayment speed and the discount rate are considered two of the most significant inputs in the model. At June 30, 2014, the fair value model used prepayment speeds ranging from 3.23% to 22.86% and a discount rate of 10.16% for the valuation of the mortgage servicing rights. A significant degree of judgment is involved in valuing the mortgage servicing rights using Level 3 inputs. The use of different assumptions could have a significant positive or negative effect on the fair value estimate.

Loans Receivable

Loans which meet certain criteria are evaluated individually for impairment. A loan is deemed to be impaired if it is a commercial loan with an outstanding balance greater than $1.0 million and on non-accrual status, loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring, and other commercial loans with $1.0 million in outstanding principal if management has specific information that it is probable they will not collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Our impaired loans are generally collateral dependent and, as such, are carried at the estimated fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. In order to estimate fair value, once interest or principal payments are 90 days delinquent or when the timely collection of such income is considered doubtful an updated appraisal is obtained. Thereafter, in the event the most recent appraisal does not reflect the current market conditions due to the passage of time and other factors, management will obtain an updated appraisal or make downward adjustments to the existing appraised value based on their knowledge of the property, local real estate market conditions, recent real estate transactions, and for estimated selling costs, if applicable. At June 30, 2014 appraisals were discounted in a range of 0%-25%.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other Real Estate Owned is recorded at estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs when acquired, thus establishing a new cost basis. Fair value is generally based on independent appraisals. These appraisals include adjustments to comparable assets based on the appraisers’ market knowledge and experience, and are discounted an additional 0%-25% for estimated costs to sell. When an asset is acquired, the excess of the loan balance over fair value, less estimated selling costs, is charged to the allowance for loan losses. If the estimated fair value of the asset declines, a writedown is recorded through expense. The valuation of foreclosed assets is subjective in nature and may be adjusted in the future because of changes in economic conditions. Operating costs after acquisition are generally expensed.

Other Fair Value Disclosures

Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions for the Company’s financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are set forth below.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For cash and due from banks, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

Securities held-to-maturity

Our held-to-maturity portfolio, consisting primarily of mortgage backed securities and other debt securities for which we have a positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, is carried at amortized cost. Management utilizes various inputs to determine the fair value of the portfolio. The Company obtains one price for each security primarily from a third-party pricing service, which generally uses quoted or other observable inputs for the determination of fair value. The pricing service normally derives the security prices through recently reported trades for identical or similar securities, making adjustments through the reporting date based upon available observable market information. For securities not actively traded, the pricing service may use quoted market prices of comparable instruments or discounted cash flow analyses, incorporating inputs that are currently observable in the markets for similar securities. Inputs that are often used in the valuation methodologies include, but are not limited to, benchmark yields, credit spreads, default rates, prepayment speeds and non-binding broker quotes. In the absence of quoted prices and in an illiquid market, valuation techniques, which require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable, are used to determine fair value of the investment. Valuation techniques are based on various assumptions, including, but not limited to cash flows, discount rates, rate of return, adjustments for nonperformance and liquidity, and liquidation values. As the Company is responsible for the determination of fair value, it performs quarterly analyses on the prices received from the pricing service to determine whether the prices are reasonable estimates of fair value. Specifically, the Company compares the prices received from the pricing service to a secondary pricing source. Additionally, the Company compares changes in the reported market values and returns to relevant market indices to test the reasonableness of the reported prices. The Company’s internal price verification procedures and review of fair value methodology documentation provided by independent pricing services has not historically resulted in adjustment in the prices obtained from the pricing service.

FHLB Stock

The fair value of FHLB stock is its carrying value, since this is the amount for which it could be redeemed. There is no active market for this stock and the Bank is required to hold a minimum investment based upon the unpaid principal of home mortgage loans and/or FHLB advances outstanding.

Table of Contents

Loans

Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as residential mortgage and consumer. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms and by performing and nonperforming categories.

The fair value of performing loans, except residential mortgage loans, is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. For performing residential mortgage loans, fair value is estimated by discounting contractual cash flows adjusted for prepayment estimates using discount rates based on secondary market sources adjusted to reflect differences in servicing and credit costs, if applicable. Fair value for significant nonperforming loans is based on recent external appraisals of collateral securing such loans, adjusted for the timing of anticipated cash flows. Fair values estimated in this manner do not fully incorporate an exit price approach to fair value, but instead are based on a comparison to current market rates for comparable loans.

Deposit Liabilities

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as savings, checking accounts and money market accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates which approximate currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Borrowings

The fair value of borrowings are based on securities dealers’ estimated fair values, when available, or estimated using discounted contractual cash flows using rates which approximate the rates offered for borrowings of similar remaining maturities.

Table of Contents

Commitments to Extend Credit

The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For commitments to originate fixed rate loans, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. Due to the short-term nature of our outstanding commitments, the fair values of these commitments are immaterial to our financial condition.

The carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are presented in the following tables.

Limitations

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. The fair value estimate of a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Table of Contents

Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-balance-sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Significant assets that are not considered financial assets include deferred tax assets, premises and equipment and bank owned life insurance. Liabilities for pension and other postretirement benefits are not considered financial liabilities. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.

12. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, "Income Taxes, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists". The amendments of this update state that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. This ASU applies to all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, “Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40) Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure,” which applies to all creditors who obtain physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan in satisfaction of a receivable. The amendments in this update clarify when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs and requires disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by a creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The amendments in ASU 2014-04 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted and entities can elect to adopt a modified retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In January 2014, the FASB, issued ASU, 2014-01, “Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Subtopic 323) Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects,” which applies to all reporting entities that invest in flow-through limited liability entities that manage or invest in affordable housing projects that qualify for the low-income housing tax credit. Currently under GAAP, a reporting entity that invests in a qualified affordable housing project may elect to account for that investment using the effective yield method if all of the conditions are met. For those investments that are not accounted for using the effective yield method, GAAP requires that they be accounted for under either the equity method or the cost method. Certain of the conditions required to be met to use the effective yield method were restrictive and thus prevented many such investments from qualifying for the use of the effective yield method. The amendments in this update modify the conditions that a reporting entity must meet to be eligible to use a method other than the equity or cost methods to account for qualified affordable housing project investments. If the modified conditions are met, the amendments permit an entity to use the proportional amortization method to amortize the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the amount of tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognize the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). Additionally, the amendments introduce new recurring disclosures about all investments in qualified affordable housing projects irrespective of the method used to account for the investments. The amendments in ASU 2014-01 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this pronouncement will have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

13. Subsequent Events

As defined in FASB ASC 855, "Subsequent Events", subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be issued. Financial statements are considered issued when they are widely distributed to shareholders and other financial statement users for general use and reliance in a form and format that complies with GAAP.

On July 24, 2014, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.04 per share to stockholders of record as of August 4, 2014, payable on August 18, 2014.

Critical Accounting Policies

We consider accounting policies that require management to exercise significant judgment or discretion or to make significant assumptions that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income, to be critical accounting policies. We consider the following to be our critical accounting policies.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is the estimated amount considered necessary to cover credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses that is charged against income. In determining the allowance for loan losses, we make significant estimates and, therefore, have identified the allowance as a critical accounting policy. The methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting policy by management because of the high degree of judgment involved, the subjectivity of the assumptions used, and the potential for changes in the economic environment that could result in changes to the amount of the recorded allowance for loan losses.

The allowance for loan losses has been determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, under which we are required to maintain an allowance for probable losses at the balance sheet date. We are responsible for the timely and periodic determination of the amount of the allowance required. We believe that our allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover specifically identifiable losses, as well as estimated losses inherent in our portfolio for which certain losses are probable but not specifically identifiable.

Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The analysis of the allowance for loan losses has two components: specific and general allocations. Specific allocations are made for loans determined to be impaired. A loan is deemed to be impaired if it is a commercial loan with an outstanding balance greater than $1.0 million and on non-accrual status, loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring, and other commercial loans with an outstanding balance greater than $1.0 million if management has specific information that it is probable they will not collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses. The general allocation is determined by segregating the remaining loans, including those loans not meeting the Company's definition of an impaired loan, by type of loan, risk weighting (if applicable) and payment history. We also analyze historical loss experience, delinquency trends, general economic conditions, geographic concentrations, and industry and peer comparisons. This analysis establishes factors that are applied to the loan groups to determine the amount of the general allocations. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revisions based upon changes in economic and

real estate market conditions. Actual loan losses may be significantly more than the allowance for loan losses we have established which could have a material negative effect on our financial results.

Purchased Credit-Impaired ("PCI") loans, are loans acquired at a discount that is due, in part, to credit quality. PCI loans are accounted for in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-30 and are initially recorded at fair value (as determined by the present value of expected future cash flows) with no valuation allowance (i.e., the allowance for loan losses). The difference between the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition and the initial carrying amount (fair value) of the PCI loans, or the “accretable yield,” is recognized as interest income utilizing the level-yield method over the life of the loans. Contractually required payments for interest and principal that exceed the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition, or the “non-accretable difference,” are not recognized as a yield adjustment, as a loss accrual or a valuation allowance. Reclassifications of the non-accretable difference to the accretable yield may occur subsequent to the loan acquisition dates due to increases in expected cash flows of the loans and result in an increase in yield on a prospective basis. On a quarterly basis, the Company analyzes the actual cash flow versus the forecasts and any adjustments to credit loss expectations are made based on actual loss recognized as well as changes in the probability of default. For period in which cash flows aren't reforecasted, prior period's estimated cash flows are adjusted to reflect the actual cash received and credit events which occurred during the current reporting period.

On a quarterly basis, management's Allowance for Loan Loss Committee reviews the current status of various loan assets in order to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. In this evaluation process, specific loans are analyzed to determine their potential risk of loss. This process includes all loans, concentrating on non-accrual and classified loans. Each non-accrual or classified loan is evaluated for potential loss exposure. Any shortfall results in a recommendation of a specific allowance if the likelihood of loss is evaluated as probable. To determine the adequacy of collateral on a particular loan, an estimate of the fair market value of the collateral is based on the most current appraised value available. This appraised value is then reduced to reflect estimated liquidation expenses. Loans are marked to fair value on the date of acquisition. In conjunction with the quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss, the Company performs an analysis on acquired loans to determine whether or not there has been subsequent deterioration in relation to those loans. If deterioration has occurred, the Company will include these loans in their calculation of the allowance for loan loss.

The allowance contains reserves identified as unallocated to cover inherent losses within a given loan category which have not been otherwise reviewed or measured on an individual basis. Such reserves include the evaluation of the national and local economy, loan portfolio volumes, the composition and concentrations of credit, credit quality and delinquency trends. These reserves reflect management's attempt to ensure that the overall allowance reflects a margin for imprecision and the uncertainty that is inherent in estimates of probable credit losses.

The results of this quarterly process are summarized along with recommendations and presented to Executive and Senior Management for their review. Based on these recommendations, loan loss allowances are approved by Executive and Senior Management. All supporting documentation with regard to the evaluation process, loan loss experience, allowance levels and the schedules of classified loans are maintained by the Accounting and Credit Risk Departments. A summary of loan loss allowances is presented to the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis.

For commercial real estate loans, multi-family loans and construction loans, the Company obtains an appraisal for all collateral dependent loans upon origination and an updated appraisal in the event interest or principal payments are 90 days delinquent or when the timely collection of such income is considered doubtful. This is done in order to determine the specific reserve needed upon initial recognition of a collateral dependent loan as non-accrual and/or impaired. In subsequent reporting periods, as part of the allowance for loan loss process, the Company reviews each collateral dependent commercial real estate loan previously classified as non-accrual and/or impaired and assesses whether there has been an adverse change in the collateral value supporting the loan. The Company utilizes information from its commercial lending officers, credit department and its loan workout department's knowledge of changes in real estate conditions in our lending area to identify if possible deterioration of collateral value has occurred. Based on the severity of the changes in market conditions, management determines if an updated appraisal is warranted or if downward adjustments to the previous appraisal are warranted. If it is determined that the deterioration

of the collateral value is significant enough to warrant ordering a new appraisal, an estimate of the downward adjustments to the existing appraised value is used in assessing if additional specific reserves are necessary until the updated appraisal is received.

For homogeneous residential mortgage loans, the Company's policy is to obtain an appraisal upon the origination of the loan and an updated appraisal in the event a loan becomes 90 days delinquent. Thereafter, the appraisal is updated every two years if the loan remains in non-performing status and the foreclosure process has not been completed. Management adjusts the appraised value of residential loans to reflect estimated selling costs and estimated declines in the real estate market, taking into consideration the estimated length of time to complete the foreclosure process.

In determining the allowance for loan losses, management believes the potential for outdated appraisals has been mitigated for impaired loans and other non-performing loans. As described above, the loans are individually assessed to determine that the loan's carrying value is not in excess of the fair value of the collateral. Loans are generally charged off after an analysis is completed which indicates that collectability of the full principal balance is in doubt. Based on the composition of our loan portfolio, we believe the primary risks are increases in interest rates, a decline in the general economy, and a decline in real estate market values in New Jersey, New York and surrounding states. Any one or combination of these events may adversely affect our loan portfolio resulting in increased delinquencies, loan losses and future levels of loan loss provisions. We consider it important to maintain the ratio of our allowance for loan losses to total loans at an adequate level given current economic conditions, interest rates, and the composition of the portfolio.

Our allowance for loan losses reflects probable losses considering, among other things, the economic conditions, the actual growth and change in composition of our loan portfolio, the level of our non-performing loans and our charge-off experience. We believe the allowance for loan losses reflects the inherent credit risk in our portfolio.

Deferred Income Taxes. The Company records income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” as amended, using the asset and liability method. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities: (i) are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or tax returns; (ii) are attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases; and (iii) are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years when those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Where applicable, deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance for any portions determined not likely to be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income tax expense in the period of enactment. The valuation allowance is adjusted, by a charge or credit to income tax expense, as changes in facts and circumstances warrant.

Asset Impairment Judgments. Certain of our assets are carried on our consolidated balance sheets at cost, fair value or at the lower of cost or fair value. Valuation allowances or write-downs are established when necessary to recognize impairment of such assets. We periodically perform analyses to test for impairment of such assets. In addition to the impairment analyses related to our loans discussed above, another significant impairment analysis is the determination of whether there has been an other-than-temporary decline in the value of one or more of our securities.

Our available-for-sale portfolio is carried at estimated fair value, with any unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in stockholders' equity. While the Company does not intend to sell these securities, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell these securities before their anticipated recovery of the remaining carrying value, we have the ability to sell the securities. Our held-to-maturity portfolio, consisting primarily of mortgage- backed securities and other debt securities for which we have a positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, is carried at carrying value. We conduct a periodic review and evaluation of the securities portfolio to determine if the value of any security has declined below its cost or carrying value, and whether such decline is other-than-temporary. Management utilizes various inputs to determine the fair value of the portfolio. To the extent they exist, unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets (level 1) or quoted prices on similar assets (level 2) are utilized to determine the fair value of each investment in the portfolio. In the absence of quoted prices and in an illiquid market, valuation techniques, which require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (level 3), are used to determine fair value of the investment. Valuation techniques are based on various assumptions, including, but not limited to cash flows, discount rates, rate of return, adjustments for nonperformance and liquidity, and liquidation values. Management is required to use a significant degree of judgment when the valuation of investments includes

Table of Contents

unobservable inputs. The use of different assumptions could have a positive or negative effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The fair values of our securities portfolio are also affected by changes in interest rates. When significant changes in interest rates occur, we evaluate our intent and ability to hold the security to maturity or for a sufficient time to recover our recorded investment balance.

If a determination is made that a debt security is other-than-temporarily impaired, the Company will estimate the amount of the unrealized loss that is attributable to credit and all other non-credit related factors. The credit related component will be recognized as an other-than-temporary impairment charge in non-interest income as a component of gain (loss) on securities, net. The non-credit related component will be recorded as an adjustment to accumulate other comprehensive income, net of tax.

Goodwill Impairment. Goodwill is presumed to have an indefinite useful life and is tested, at least annually, for impairment at the reporting unit level. Impairment exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. For purposes of our goodwill impairment testing, we have identified a single reporting unit.

In connection with our annual impairment assessment we applied the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. For the months ended June 30, 2014, our qualitative assessment concluded that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and, therefore, the two-step goodwill impairment test was not required.

Valuation of Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSR). The initial asset recognized for originated MSR is measured at fair value. The fair value of MSR is estimated by reference to current market values of similar loans sold with servicing released. MSR are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income. We apply the amortization method for measurements of our MSR. MSR are assessed for impairment based on fair value at each reporting date. MSR impairment, if any, is recognized in a valuation allowance through charges to earnings as a component of fees and service charges. Subsequent increases in the fair value of impaired MSR are recognized only up to the amount of the previously recognized valuation allowance.

The estimated fair value of the MSR is obtained through independent third party valuations through an analysis of future cash flows, incorporating estimates of assumptions market participants would use in determining fair value including market discount rates, prepayment speeds, servicing income, servicing costs, default rates and other market driven data, including the market's perception of future interest rate movements. The valuation allowance is then adjusted in subsequent periods to reflect changes in the measurement of impairment. All assumptions are reviewed for reasonableness on a quarterly basis to ensure they reflect current and anticipated market conditions.

The fair value of MSR is highly sensitive to changes in assumptions. Changes in prepayment speed assumptions generally have the most significant impact on the fair value of our MSR. Generally, as interest rates decline, mortgage loan prepayments accelerate due to increased refinance activity, which results in a decrease in the fair value of MSR. As interest rates rise, mortgage loan prepayments slow down, which results in an increase in the fair value of MSR. Thus, any measurement of the fair value of our MSR is limited by the conditions existing and the assumptions utilized as of a particular point in time, and those assumptions may not be appropriate if they are applied at a different point in time.

Core Deposit Premiums. Core deposit premiums represent the intangible value of depositor relationships assumed in purchase acquisitions and are amortized on an accelerated basis over 10 years. The Company periodically evaluates the value of core deposit premiums to ensure the carrying amount exceeds it's implied fair value.

Stock-Based Compensation. We recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those awards in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”.

We estimate the per share fair value of option grants on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using assumptions for the expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected option term. These assumptions are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. The Black-Scholes option pricing model also contains certain inherent limitations when applied to options that are not traded on public markets.

The per share fair value of options is highly sensitive to changes in assumptions. In general, the per share fair value of options will move in the same direction as changes in the expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected option term, and in the opposite direction as changes in the expected dividend yield. For example, the per share fair value of options will generally increase as expected stock price volatility increases, risk-free interest rate increases, expected option term increases and expected dividend yield decreases. The use of different assumptions or different option pricing models could result in materially different per share fair values of options.

Executive Summary

Our fundamental business strategy is to be a well capitalized, full service, community bank which provides high quality customer service and competitively priced products and services to individuals and businesses in the communities we serve.

Our results of operations depend primarily on net interest income, which is directly impacted by the market interest rate environment. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets, primarily mortgage loans and investment securities, and the interest we pay on our interest-bearing liabilities, primarily interest-bearing transaction accounts, time deposits, and borrowed funds. Net interest income is affected by the level of interest rates, the shape of the market yield curve, the timing of the placement and the repricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities on our balance sheet, and the prepayment rate on our mortgage-related assets.

The continued low interest rate environment has resulted in a significant portion of our interest-earning assets being originated or re-priced at lower yields. We have been able to partially offset the yield compression by lowering the interest rates on our interest bearing liabilities and by growing our asset size; however, the recent flattening in the treasury yield curve places additional pressure on new loan origination yields. We continue to actively manage our interest rate risk as the current interest rate environment is forecasted to remain at current levels, with no likely increase in short-term rates until mid 2015. If this interest rate and yield curve environment continues, we will likely be subject to near-term net interest income compression. Should the treasury yield curve steepen, we may experience an improvement in net interest income, particularly if short-term interest rates remain unchanged as forecasted. In addition, the continued slowdown in mortgage banking activity, as compared to the prior year, will result in lower gains on sales of loans. We will continue to manage our interest rate risk.

Our results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic conditions. There is still uncertainty with respect to government regulation, debt levels, unemployement and sluggish growth. The national and regional unemployment rates, though improving, remain at elevated levels as workers begin to return to search for work. These factors coupled with the modest growth in the housing and real estate markets, have resulted in elevated credit costs on the loan portfolio. Despite these conditions, our overall level of non-performing loans remains low compared to our national and regional peers. We attribute this to our conservative underwriting standards, as well as our diligence in resolving our problem loans.

On May 7, 2014, we completed our second step conversion. We sold a total of 219,580,695 shares of common stock at $10.00 per share in the second step stock offering, and issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to the Investors Charitable Foundation. Concurrent with the completion of the stock offering, each share of Old Investors Bancorp common stock owned by public stockholders (stockholders other than Investors Bancorp, MHC) was exchanged for 2.55 shares of Company common stock. A total of 137,560,968 shares of Company common stock were issued in the exchange. This capital raise will greatly enhance our ability to continue to grow the Company. We invested 50% of the net proceeds from the offering in Investors Bank, provided funding to our Employee Stock Ownership Plan for the purchase of 6,617,421 shares of common stock sold in the offering and contributed $20 million to Investors Charitable foundation through issuing 1,000,000 shares as well as a $10 million cash contribution. A substantial portion of the net proceeds were used to pay off short-term borrowings as they matured as well as invest in short-term investments and investment-grade debt obligations and mortgage-backed securities. We will use the remainder of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including paying cash dividends and repurchasing shares of our common stock, subject to applicable regulation.

On January 10, 2014, we completed the acquisition of Gateway Community Financial Corp. and its subsidiary, GCF Bank. On December 6, 2013, we completed the acquisition of Roma Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries, Roma Bank and RomAsia Bank.The geographic market areas of both Roma Financial and Gateway Community have significant potential and expand our footprint from the suburbs of Philadelphia to the boroughs of New York and Long Island.

We continue to grow and transform the composition of our balance sheet. Total assets increased by $1.83 billion, or 11.7%, to $17.46 billion at June 30, 2014 from $15.62 billion at December 31, 2013. The acquisition of Gateway added $254.7 million in deposits and $195.1 million in loans, resulting in a bargain purchase gain of $1.5 million, net of tax. Net loans, including loans held for sale, increased by $860.2 million, or 6.7%, to $13.75 billion at June 30, 2014 from $12.89 billion at December 31, 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we originated $701.1 million in multi-family loans, $252.9 million in commercial real estate loans, $181.7 million in commercial and industrial loans, $52.4 million in consumer and other loans and $28.9 million in construction loans. This increase in loans reflects our continued focus on generating multi-family and commercial real estate loans, which was partially offset by pay downs and payoffs of loans. The multi-family and commercial real estate loans we originate are secured by properties located primarily in New Jersey and New York.

We continue to stay focused on the execution of our strategic business plan to remain a high performing banking franchise headquartered in the New Jersey- New York region. We will continue to enhance shareholder value through our strategic capital initiatives, including growth both organically and through acquisitions, stock buybacks and dividend payments.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013

Total Assets. Total assets increased by $1.83 billion, or 11.7%, to $17.46 billion at June 30, 2014 from $15.62 billion at December 31, 2013. On May 7, 2014, the Company raised $2.15 billion in capital in its second step offering. As a result of deploying the proceeds, securities increased by $934.7 million, or 57.8%, to $2.55 billion at June 30, 2014 from $1.62 billion at December 31, 2013. Net loans, including loans held for sale, increased $860.2 million to $13.75 billion at June 30, 2014 from $12.89 billion at December 31, 2013. In addition, cash and cash equivalents increased by $50.7 million from $250.7 million at December 31, 2013 to $301.4 million at June 30, 2014.

Net Loans. Net loans, including loans held for sale, increased by $860.2 million, or 6.7%, to $13.75 billion at June 30, 2014 from $12.89 billion at December 31, 2013. This increase includes $195.1 million in loans acquired in conjunction with the Gateway acquisition. At June 30, 2014, total loans were $13.93 billion which included $5.89 billion in residential loans, $4.39 billion in multi-family loans, $2.75 billion in commercial real estate loans, $441.7 million in consumer and other loans, $300.9 million in commercial and industrial loans and $172.4 million in construction loans. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we originated $701.1 million in multi-family loans, $252.9 million in commercial real estate loans, $181.7 million in commercial and industrial loans, $52.4 million in consumer and other loans and $28.9 million in construction loans. This increase in loans reflects our continued focus on generating multi-family and commercial real estate loans, which was partially offset by pay downs and payoffs of loans. The loans we originate and purchase are on properties located primarily in New Jersey and New York.

We originate residential mortgage loans through our mortgage subsidiary, Investors Home Mortgage Co which originated $351.1 million in residential mortgage loans with $62.8 million being sold to third party investors and $288.3 million were added to our portfolio for the six months ended June 30, 2014. We also purchase mortgage loans from correspondent entities including other banks and mortgage bankers. Our agreements with these correspondent entities require them to originate loans that adhere to our underwriting standards. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we purchased loans totaling $149.4 million from these entities.

Our portfolio also contains interest-only one to four family mortgage loans in which the borrower makes only interest payments for the first five, seven, or ten years of the mortgage loan term. This feature will result in future increases in the borrower's loan repayment when the contractually required payments increase due to the required amortization of the principal amount. These payment increases could affect the borrower's ability to repay the loan. The amount of interest-only one-to four-family mortgage loans outstanding was $316.0 million at June 30, 2014 compared to $341.7 million at December 31, 2013. The ability of borrowers to repay their obligations is dependent upon various factors including the borrower's income and net worth, cash flows generated by the underlying collateral, value of the underlying collateral and priority of our lien on the property. Such factors are dependent upon various economic conditions and individual circumstances beyond our control. We, therefore, are subject to risk of loss. We maintained stricter underwriting criteria for these interest-only loans than we do for our amortizing loans. We believe these criteria adequately reduce the potential exposure to such risks and that adequate provisions for loan losses are provided for all known and inherent risks.

The allowance for loan losses increased by $12.1 million to $186.1 million at June 30, 2014 from $173.9 million at December 31, 2013. The increase in our allowance for loan losses is due to the growth of the loan portfolio and the increased credit risk in our overall portfolio, particularly the inherent credit risk associated with commercial real estate lending. Future increases in the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on the growth and composition of the loan portfolio, the level of loan delinquency and the economic conditions in our lending area.

Our past due loans and non-accrual loans discussed below exclude certain purchased credit impaired ("PCI") loans, primarily consisting of loans recorded in the acquisitions of Gateway, Roma Financial and Marathon Bank. Under U.S. GAAP, the PCI loans (acquired at a discount that is due, in part, to credit quality) are not subject to delinquency classification in the same manner as loans originated by Investors. The following table sets forth non-accrual loans and accruing past due loans (excluding PCI loans and loans held for sale) on the dates indicated as well as certain asset quality ratios.

Total non-accrual loans increased to $108.6 million at June 30, 2014 compared to $100.4 million at December 31, 2013. Despite the slight increase, we continue to diligently resolve our troubled loans. Our allowance for loan loss as a percent of total loans is 1.34%. At June 30, 2014, there were $41.8 million of loans deemed troubled debt restructuring, of which $23.2 million were residential and consumer loans, $11.4 million were commercial real estate loans, $3.6 million were construction loans, $2.1 million were multi-family loans and $1.5 million were commercial and industrial loans. Troubled debt restructured loans in the amount of $32.3 million were classified as accruing and $9.5 million were classified as non-accrual at June 30, 2014.

In addition to non-accrual loans, we continue to monitor our portfolio for potential problem loans. Potential problem loans are defined as loans for which we have concerns as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the current loan repayment terms and which may cause the loan to be placed on non-accrual status. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had potential problem loans totaling $32.4 million, which were comprised of 27 commercial real estate loans for $14.6 million, 13 commercial and industrial loans for $5.0 million and five multi-family loans for $12.8 million. Management is actively monitoring these loans.

The ratio of non-accrual loans to total loans was 0.78% at June 30, 2014 compared to 0.77% at December 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-accrual loans was 171.33% at June 30, 2014 compared to 173.30% at December 31, 2013. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.34% and 1.33%, respectively.

At June 30, 2014, loans meeting the Company’s definition of an impaired loan were primarily collateral dependent loans totaling $60.5 million, of which $16.6 million of impaired loans had a specific allowance for credit losses of $1.9 million and $43.9 million of impaired loans had no specific allowance for credit losses. At December 31, 2013, loans meeting the Company’s definition of an impaired loan were primarily collateral dependent loans totaling $66.7 million, of which $17.1 million of impaired loans had a related allowance for credit losses of $2.1 million and $49.6 million of impaired loans had no related allowance for credit losses.

The following table sets forth the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 allocated by loan category and the percent of loans in each category to total loans at the dates indicated. The allowance for loan losses allocated to

Securities. Securities, in the aggregate, increased by $934.7 million, or 57.8%, to $2.55 billion at June 30, 2014 from $1.62 billion at December 31, 2013. This increase is attributed to using a portion of the proceeds from the Company's second step offering to purchase shorter duration investment securities.

Other Assets, Stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank. The amount of stock we own in the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") was $143.3 million at June 30, 2014 and $178.1 million at December 31, 2013. The amount of stock we own in the FHLB is related to the balance of borrowings, therefore the decrease in borrowings has an impact on the balance in the FHLB stock owned. Other assets was $6.5 million at June 30, 2014 and $14.4 million at December 31, 2013. Bank owned life insurance was $162.6 million at June 30, 2014 and $152.8 million at December 31, 2013.

Deposits. Deposits increased by $527.6 million or 4.9% from $10.72 billion at December 31, 2013 to $11.25 billion at June 30, 2014. This increase includes $254.7 million in deposits added in conjunction with the Gateway acquisition. Core deposits increased $731.6 million or 10.0%, partially offset by a $203.9 million decrease in certificates of deposit. Core deposits represents over 72% of our total deposit portfolio.

Borrowed Funds. Borrowed funds decreased $938.2 million, or 27.9%, to $2.43 billion at June 30, 2014 from $3.37 billion at December 31, 2013. In connection with the second step capital offering, the Company raised net proceeds of $2.15 billion and used approximately half of the proceeds to pay down maturing, short term borrowings.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders' equity increased $2.18 billion to $3.52 billion at June 30, 2014 from $1.33 billion at December 31, 2013. The increase is primarily related to the impact of the Company's second step capital offering, net income of $49.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and a $7.2 million decrease to other comprehensive loss. Stockholders' equity was also impacted by the declaration of cash dividends totaling $0.04 per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2014 which resulted in a decrease of $14.0 million.

Analysis of Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents the difference between income we earn on our interest-earning assets and the expense we pay on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends on the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned on such assets and paid on such liabilities.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $49.6 million compared to net income of $55.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $30.1 million, or 28.7%, to $134.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $104.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to the average balance of interest earning assets increasing $3.91 billion to $16.42 billion at June 30, 2014 compared to $12.52 billion at June 30, 2013, as well as an 8 basis point decrease in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 0.93% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from 1.01% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. These were partially offset by the average balance of our interest bearing liabilities increasing $1.67 billion to $12.55 billion at June 30, 2014 compared to $10.87 billion at June 30, 2013, as well as the yield on our interest-earning assets decreasing 22 basis points to 4.00% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from 4.22% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The net interest spread decreased by 14 basis points to 3.07% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from 3.21% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as the proceeds from the second step capital offering were temporarily invested in short term investments.

Net interest income increased by $57.2 million, or 27.7%, to $264.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $206.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to the average balance of interest earning assets increasing $3.55 billion to $15.89 billion at June 30, 2014 compared to $12.34 billion at June 30, 2013, as well as a 12 basis point decrease in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 0.90% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from 1.02% for the six months ended June 30, 2013. These were partially offset by the average balance of our interest bearing liabilities increasing $2.24 billion to $12.99 billion at June 30, 2014 compared to $10.75 billion at June 30, 2013, as well as the yield on our interest-earning assets decreasing 18 basis points to 4.06% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from 4.24% for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The net interest spread decreased by 6 basis points to 3.16% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from 3.22% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as the yield on interest earning assets declined 18 basis points while the cost of interest bearing liabilities declined 12 basis points.

Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income increased by $31.9 million, or 24.1%, to $164.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $132.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. This increase is attributed to the average balance of interest-earning assets increasing $3.91 billion or 31.2%, to $16.42 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $12.52 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as a result of organic growth and acquisitions. This was partially offset by the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets decreasing 22 basis points to 4.00% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to 4.22% for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Interest income on loans increased by $26.9 million, or 21.9%, to $149.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $122.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, reflecting a $2.80 billion or 26.2%, increase in the average balance of net loans to $13.49 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $10.69 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase is primarily attributed to the average balance of multi-family loans, residential and commercial real estate loans increasing $988.2 million, $953.4 million and $624.7 million, respectively, as we continue to grow our loan portfolio. Additionally, the average yield on net loans decreased 16 basis points to 4.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from 4.59% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in the average yield on net loans reflects lower rates on new and refinanced loans due to the current interest rate environment.

A portion of the second step capital offering proceeds were used to purchase short term investment securities. This increase was partially offset by an 11 basis point decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets, excluding loans to 1.98% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to 2.09% for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Total interest and dividend income increased by $61.1 million, or 23.3%, to $322.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $261.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. This increase is attributed to the average balance of interest-earning assets increasing $3.55 billion, or 28.8%, to $15.89 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $12.34 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2013. This was partially offset by the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets decreasing 18 basis points to 4.06% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to 4.24% for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

The decrease in the average yield on net loans reflects lower rates on new and refinanced loans due to the current interest rate environment.

Provision for Loan Losses. Our provision for loan losses was $8.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $13.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, net charge-offs were $2.6 million compared to $8.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, our provision for loan losses was $17.0 million compared to $27.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net charge-offs were $4.9 million compared to $15.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Our provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 is a result of continued growth in the loan portfolio, specifically the multi-family, commercial real estate and commercial and industrial portfolios; the inherent credit risk in our overall portfolio, particularly the credit risk associated with commercial real estate lending and commercial and industrial lending; and the level of non-performing loans and delinquent loans. While the economic and real estate conditions in our lending area have improved slightly, management is cautiously optimistic and continues to be prudent in assessing the Company's credit risk. The Federal Reserve Board has stated it will continue to hold short term interest rates at low rates until 2015 unless economic conditions greatly improve.

Non-Interest Income. Total non-interest income increased by $635,000 or 6.7% to $10.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The higher income is attributed to fees and service charges, income on bank owned life insurance and gains on security transactions of $399,000, $303,000 and $101,000, respectively. In addition, other income increased $770,000 primarily as a result of income on non-deposit investment products. These increases are offset by a decrease in gain on loan transactions of $739,000 to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 due to lower volume of sales in the secondary market.

Total non-interest income increased by $2.5 million, or 12.7% to $22.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $19.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Additionally, fees and service charges and income on bank owned life insurance increased $830,000 and $477,000, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2014. These increases were offset by a $2.2 million decrease in gain on the sale of loans to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 due to lower volume of sales in the secondary market.

Non-Interest Expenses. Total non-interest expenses increased by $55.3 million, or 97.1%, to $112.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $56.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Income tax expense was $30.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, representing a 38.63% effective tax rate compared to income tax expense of $30.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 representing a 35.66% effective tax rate.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, there was a change in New York state tax law which will likely result in the Company paying higher New York state taxes in future periods. The Company analyzed the impact of this change relative to its deferred tax positions. Based on that analysis, the Company recognized a $680,000 write up to its deferred tax assets during the first quarter of 2014, which is a discrete item, reflected as a reduction of income tax expense. The Company will continue to monitor the impact of this tax law change.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, proceeds from the sale of loans, Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and other borrowings and, to a lesser extent, investment maturities. While scheduled amortization of loans is a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Company has other sources of liquidity if a need for additional funds arises, including unsecured overnight lines of credit and other borrowings from the FHLB and other correspondent banks.

In connection with the second step capital offering, the Company raised net proceeds of $2.15 billion and used approximately half of the proceeds to pay down maturing, short term borrowings. As a result, the Company had no overnight borrowings outstanding with FHLB at June 30, 2014 as compared to $707.0 million at December 31, 2013. The Company utilizes overnight borrowings from time to time to fund short-term liquidity needs. The Company had total borrowings of $2.43 billion at June 30, 2014, a decrease of $938,000 from $3.37 billion at December 31, 2013.

In the normal course of business, the Company routinely enters into various commitments, primarily relating to the origination of loans. At June 30, 2014, outstanding commitments to originate loans totaled $674.5 million; outstanding unused lines of credit totaled $660.3 million; standby letters of credit totaled $22.6 million and outstanding commitments to sell loans totaled $21.0 million. The Company expects to have sufficient funds available to meet current commitments in the normal course of business. Time deposits scheduled to mature in one year or less totaled $2.03 billion at June 30, 2014. Based upon historical experience management estimates that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Company.

As of June 30, 2014, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements as follows:



	June 30, 2014
	Actual				Required
	Amount		Ratio		Amount		Ratio
	(Dollars in thousands)
Total capital (to risk-weighted assets)	$	2,408,142	19.39	%	$	993,574	8.00	%
Tier I capital (to risk-weighted assets)	2,252,516		18.14		496,787		4.00
Tier I capital (to average assets)	2,252,516		13.22		681,429		4.00

In July 2013, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the other federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule that will revise their leverage and risk-based capital requirements and the method for calculating risk-weighted assets to make them consistent with agreements that were reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. Among other things, the rule establishes a new common equity Tier 1 minimum capital requirement (4.5% of risk-weighted assets), increases the minimum Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets requirement (from 4% to 6% of risk-weighted assets) and assigns a higher risk weight (150%) to exposures that are more than 90 days past due or are on non-accrual status and to certain commercial real estate facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property. The final rule also requires unrealized gains and losses on certain “available-for-sale” securities holdings to be included for purposes of

calculating regulatory capital unless a one-time opt-out is exercised. Additional constraints will also be imposed on the inclusion in regulatory capital of mortgage-servicing assets, deferred tax assets and certain minority interests. The rule limits a banking organization's capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers if the banking organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements. The final rule becomes effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016 and ending January 1, 2019, when the full capital conservation buffer requirement will be effective.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in the financial statements. These transactions primarily relate to debt obligations and lending commitments.

The following table shows the contractual obligations of the Company by expected payment period as of June 30, 2014:



Contractual Obligations	Total		Less than One Year	One-Two Years	Two-Three Years	More than Three Years
	(In thousands)
Debt obligations (excluding capitalized leases)	$	2,429,085	328,000	185,376	275,000	1,640,709
Commitments to originate and purchase loans	$	674,498	674,498	—	—	—
Commitments to sell loans	$	21,000	21,000	—	—	—

Debt obligations include borrowings from the FHLB and other borrowings. The borrowings have defined terms and, under certain circumstances, $100.0 million of the borrowings are callable at the option of the lender. Additionally, at June 30, 2014, the Company’s commitments to fund unused lines of credit totaled $660.3 million. Commitments to originate loans and commitments to fund unused lines of credit are agreements to lend additional funds to customers as long as there have been no violations of any of the conditions established in the agreements. Commitments generally have a fixed expiration or other termination clauses which may or may not require a payment of a fee. Since some of these loan commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, total commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

In addition to the contractual obligations previously discussed, we have other liabilities which includes capitalized and operating lease obligations. These contractual obligations as of June 30, 2014 have not changed significantly from December 31, 2013.

In the normal course of business the Company sells residential mortgage loans to third parties. These loan sales are subject to customary representations and warranties. In the event that we are found to be in breach of these representations and warranties, we may be obligated to repurchase certain of these loans.

For further information regarding our off-balance sheet arrangements and contractual obligations, see Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our December 31, 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Qualitative Analysis. We believe one significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk results from timing differences in the maturity or re-pricing of our assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts (i.e., loan commitments); the effect of loan prepayments, deposits and withdrawals; the difference in the behavior of lending and funding rates arising from the uses of different indices; and “yield curve risk” arising from changing interest rate relationships across the spectrum of maturities for constant or variable credit risk investments. Besides directly affecting our net interest income, changes in market interest rates can also affect the amount of new loan originations, the ability of borrowers to repay variable rate loans, the volume of loan prepayments and refinancings, the carrying value of securities classified as available for sale and the mix and flow of deposits.

The general objective of our interest rate risk management is to determine the appropriate level of risk given our business model and then manage that risk in a manner consistent with our policy to reduce, to the extent possible, the exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Our Asset Liability Committee, which consists of senior management and executives, evaluates the interest rate risk inherent in certain assets and liabilities, our operating environment and capital and liquidity requirements and modifies our lending, investing and deposit gathering strategies accordingly. On a quarterly basis, our Board of Directors reviews the Asset Liability Committee report, the aforementioned activities and strategies, the estimated effect of those strategies on our net interest margin and the estimated effect that changes in market interest rates may have on the economic value of our loan and securities portfolios, as well as the intrinsic value of our deposits and borrowings.

We actively evaluate interest rate risk in connection with our lending, investing and deposit activities. Historically, our lending activities have emphasized one- to four-family fixed- and variable rate first mortgages. At June 30, 2014, approximately 36.8% of our residential portfolio was in variable rate products, while 63.2% was in fixed rate products. Our variable-rate mortgage related assets have helped to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations and is expected to benefit our long-term profitability, as the rates earned on these mortgage loans will increase as prevailing market rates increase. However, the current low interest rate environment, and the preferences of our customers, has resulted in more of a demand for fixed-rate products. This may adversely impact our net interest income, particularly in a rising rate environment. To help manage our interest rate risk, we have increased our focus on the origination of commercial loans, particularly multi-family loans, as these loan types reduce our interest rate risk due to their shorter term compared to residential mortgage loans. In addition, we primarily invest in shorter-to-medium duration securities, which generally have shorter average lives and lower yields compared to longer term securities. Shortening the average lives of our securities, along with originating more adjustable-rate mortgages and commercial real estate mortgages, will help to reduce interest rate risk.

We retain an independent, nationally recognized consulting firm that specializes in asset and liability management to complete our quarterly interest rate risk reports. We also retain a second nationally recognized consulting firm to prepare independently comparable interest rate risk reports for the purpose of validation. Both firms use a combination of analyses to monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates. The economic value of equity analysis is a model that estimates the change in net portfolio value (“NPV”) over a range of immediately changed interest rate scenarios. NPV is the discounted present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet contracts. In calculating changes in NPV, assumptions estimating loan prepayment rates, reinvestment rates and deposit decay rates that seem most likely based on historical experience during prior interest rate changes are used.

The net interest income analysis uses data derived from an asset and liability analysis, described below, and applies several additional elements, including actual interest rate indices and margins, contractual limitations and the U.S. Treasury yield curve as of the balance sheet date. In addition we apply consistent parallel yield curve shifts (in both directions) to determine possible changes in net interest income if the theoretical yield curve shifts occurred gradually. Net interest income analysis also adjusts the asset and liability repricing analysis based on changes in prepayment rates resulting from the parallel yield curve shifts.

Our asset and liability analysis determines the relative balance between the repricing of assets and liabilities over multiple periods of time (ranging from overnight to five years). This asset and liability analysis includes expected cash flows from loans and mortgage-backed securities, applying prepayment rates based on the differential between the current interest rate and the market interest rate for each loan and security type. This analysis identifies mismatches in the timing of assets and liabilities but does not necessarily provide an accurate indicator of interest rate risk because the assumptions used in the analysis may not reflect the actual response to market changes.

Quantitative Analysis. The table below sets forth, as of June 30, 2014, the estimated changes in our NPV and our net interest income that would result from the designated changes in interest rates. Such changes to interest rates are calculated as an immediate and permanent change for the purposes of computing NPV and a gradual change over a one year period for the purposes of

Table of Contents

computing net interest income. Computations of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. The following table reflects management’s expectations of the changes in NPV or net interest income for an interest rate decrease of greater than 100 basis points or increase of greater than 200 basis points.



	Net Portfolio Value (1) (2)							Net Interest Income (3)
Change in Interest Rates (basis points)	Estimated NPV		Estimated Increase (Decrease)					Estimated Net Interest Income		Estimated Increase (Decrease)
Change in Interest Rates (basis points)	Estimated NPV		Amount			Percent		Estimated Net Interest Income		Amount		Percent
	(Dollars in thousands)
+ 200bp	$	3,060,928		(98,408	)	(3.1	)%	$	501,035	(23,348	)	(4.5	)%
0bp	$	3,159,336		—		—		$	524,383	—		—
-100bp	$	3,330,141		170,805		5.4	%	$	524,964	581		0.1	%


(1)	Assumes an instantaneous and parallel shift in interest rates at all maturities.


(2)	NPV is the discounted present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts.


(3)	Assumes a gradual change in interest rates over a one year period at all maturities.

The table set forth above indicates at June 30, 2014, in the event of a 200 basis points increase in interest rates, we would be expected to experience a 3.1% decrease in NPV and a $23.3 million, or 4.5%, decrease in net interest income. In the event of a 100 basis points decrease in interest rates, we would be expected to experience a 5.4% increase in NPV and a $581,000, or 0.1%, increase in net interest income. These data do not reflect any future actions we may take in response to changes in interest rates, such as changing the mix of our assets and liabilities, which could change the results of the NPV and net interest income calculations.

As mentioned above, we retain two nationally recognized firms to compute our quarterly interest rate risk reports. Certain shortcomings are inherent in any methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in NPV and net interest income require certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The NPV and net interest income table presented above assumes the composition of our interest-rate sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and, accordingly, the data do not reflect any actions we may take in response to changes in interest rates. The table also assumes a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or the repricing characteristics of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the NPV and net interest income table provide an indication of our sensitivity to interest rate changes at a particular point in time, such measurement is not intended to and does not provide a precise forecast of the effects of changes in market interest rates on our NPV and net interest income.



ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
