of Directors approved our seventh stock repurchase program for
repurchase of up to 56,975,000 shares of common stock. "This past
quarter we celebrated the one-year anniversary of the closing of
our highly successful second-step conversion and stock offering,
enjoying an increase in the price of our stock in excess of thirty
percent during that time," said Ronald E. Hermance, Jr., Chairman,
President and Chief Executive Officer. "During this year we have
also experienced a flat yield curve, which has placed considerable
pressure on our net interest margin and net interest spread.
However, the capital we raised from the offering has given us the
ability to continue to grow our assets, at an annualized rate in
excess of 20%, which, coupled with our continued efficient
operation, has mitigated the effects of the shrinking net interest
margin. This growth, however, has not been at the expense of credit
quality, as we have experienced a year-to-date decrease in
non-performing loans. We intend to continue to grow our assets,
using the same conservative underwriting and asset selection
standards as in the past, while also paying dividends and
repurchasing our common stock as part of our capital management
strategy. Further, the recently completed Sound Federal acquisition
complements this strategy, moving our franchise into new markets
with similar demographics to our current franchise area", added Mr.
Hermance. Sound Federal Acquisition On July 14, 2006, we completed
the acquisition of Sound Federal Bancorp, Inc. ("Sound Federal")
for $20.75 per share in cash, representing an aggregate transaction
value of approximately $265 million. The acquisition of Sound
Federal, which as of June 30, 2006 had over $1 billion in assets
and deposits and 14 branches in New York's Westchester, Rockland,
and Putnam Counties as well as Fairfield County, Connecticut, will
further enhance the already attractive demographics of our branch
network footprint and complements our organic branch growth
strategy. We anticipate full data integration of Sound Federal to
be completed by the end of September 2006. Statement of Income
Summary Our results of operations depend primarily on net interest
income, which, in part, is a direct result of 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, mortgage-backed securities and investment
securities, and the interest we pay on our interest-bearing
liabilities, primarily time deposits, interest-bearing transaction
deposits and borrowed funds. Net interest income is affected by the
shape of the market yield curve, the timing of the placement and
repricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities on our balance sheet, and the prepayment rate on our
mortgage-related assets. Our results of operations may also be
affected significantly by general and local economic and
competitive conditions, particularly those with respect to changes
in market interest rates, government policies and actions of
regulatory authorities. Our results are also affected by the market
price of our stock, as the expense of certain of our employee stock
ownership plan is related to the current price of our common stock.
Short-term market interest rates continued to increase during the
first six months of 2006 following increases during the entirety of
2005. The Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Bank
("FOMC") increased the overnight lending rate 25 basis points at
each of the regularly scheduled meetings beginning in June 2004 to
the current rate of 5.25%. Intermediate- term market interest
rates, those with maturities of two to five years, and long-term
market interest rates, in particular the 10-year bond, also
increased during the first six months of 2006 at a similar pace as
the short- term interest rates. The result of these market interest
rate changes was the continuation of the flat market yield curve
during the first six months of 2006 that existed at the end of
2005. The $104.9 million and $211.0 million increases in interest
income for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2006,
respectively, when compared to the prior year periods, was
primarily derived from the overall growth in our balance sheet. In
contrast, the $83.1 million and $157.3 million increases in
interest expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June
30, 2006, respectively, reflected both the growth in our
interest-bearing liabilities and increases in prevailing interest
rates. The $21.9 million increase in our net interest income in the
second quarter of 2006 and the $53.7 million increase during the
first six months of 2006, when compared to the same periods in
2005, reflected the 34.4% and 37.5% growth, respectively, in the
average balance of our total interest-earning assets over the prior
year periods. The growth in the average balance of our total
interest-bearing liabilities was 23.6% and 23.9% for the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively, when compared
to comparable periods in 2005. This difference in the growth rates
of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities,
attributable to the completion of our second-step conversion and
stock offering during 2005, offset the negative impact of the
larger increase in short-term interest rates during 2005 and the
first six months of 2006 compared with the increase in long-term
rates over that same period. Our net interest margin decreased 31
basis points and our net interest rate spread decreased 66 basis
points, when comparing the second quarter of 2006 with the
corresponding period in 2005. Our net interest margin decreased 30
basis points and our net interest rate spread decreased 70 basis
points, when comparing the first six months of 2006 with the
comparable period in 2005. Our interest income, in general,
reflects movements in long-term rates while our interest expense,
in general, reflects movements in short-term rates. These decreases
in the net interest margin and net interest rate spread were also
due, in part, to a shift in our interest-earning asset mix to
shorter-term investment securities and variable-rate mortgage loans
and mortgage-backed securities. In addition, our interest-bearing
liabilities reset to the current market interest rates faster than
our interest-earning assets as changes to interest rates on our
interest-bearing liabilities generally time movements in market
interest rates while changes to interest rates on our
interest-earning assets generally lag market interest rates due to
normal commitment periods of up to 90 days. Total interest and
dividend income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased
$104.9 million, or 37.6%, to $384.1 million compared with $279.2
million for the three months ended June 30, 2005. This increase was
primarily due to a $7.73 billion, or 34.4%, increase in the average
balance of interest-earning assets to $30.20 billion for the three
months ended June 30, 2006 from $22.47 billion for the three months
ended June 30, 2005, primarily reflecting our internally generated
balance sheet growth and the investment of the net proceeds from
the second-step conversion and stock offering. The increase in
interest and dividend income was also due to a 12 basis point
increase in the annualized weighted-average yield on total average
interest-earning assets to 5.09% for the second quarter of 2006
compared with 4.97% for the second quarter of 2005. The $57.0
million increase in interest and fees on mortgage loans was
primarily due to the growth in the average balance of $3.87
billion, reflecting increases in our core investment of first
mortgage loans. The $21.1 million increase in interest and
dividends on total investment securities was primarily due to
growth in the average balance of $1.81 billion, which reflected the
investment into short-term securities of part of the net proceeds
from the second-step conversion and stock offering. The $25.6
million increase in interest on mortgage-backed securities was
primarily due to a $1.84 billion increase in the average balance
reflecting increased purchases of variable-rate securities during
2005 and the first six months of 2006. Total interest and dividend
income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 increased $211.0
million, or 39.6%, to $743.8 million compared with $532.8 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2005. This increase was primarily
due to an $8.02 billion, or 37.5%, increase in the average balance
of interest-earning assets to $29.38 billion for the six months
ended June 30, 2006 from $21.36 billion for the six months ended
June 30, 2005, primarily reflecting our internally generated
balance sheet growth and the investment of the net proceeds from
the second-step conversion and stock offering. The increase in
interest and dividend income was also due to a seven basis point
increase in the annualized weighted-average yield on total average
interest-earning assets to 5.06% for the first six months of 2006
compared with 4.99% for the comparable period in 2005. The $110.1
million increase in interest and fees on mortgage loans was
primarily due to the growth in the average balance of $3.82
billion, reflecting increases in our core investment of first
mortgage loans. The $49.2 million increase in interest and
dividends on total investment securities was primarily due to
growth in the average balance of $2.22 billion, which reflected the
investment into short-term securities of part of the net proceeds
from the second-step conversion and stock offering. The $47.3
million increase in interest on mortgage-backed securities was
primarily due to a $1.77 billion increase in the average balance
reflecting increased purchases of variable-rate securities during
2005 and the first six months of 2006. Total interest expense for
the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased $83.1 million, or
56.3%, to $230.6 million compared with $147.5 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2005. This increase was partially due to a
$4.73 billion, or 23.6%, increase in the average balance of total
interest- bearing liabilities to $24.78 billion for the three
months ended June 30, 2006 compared with $20.05 billion for the
corresponding period in 2005. The increase in the average balance
of interest-bearing liabilities funded a portion of our asset
growth. The increase in total interest expense was also due to a 78
basis point increase in the annualized weighted-average cost of
total interest-bearing liabilities to 3.73% for the three-month
period ended June 30, 2006 compared with 2.95% for the three-month
period ended June 30, 2005, which reflected the growth and
repricing of our interest-bearing liabilities during the rising
short-term interest rate environment experienced during 2005 and
the first six months of 2006. The $55.5 million increase in
interest expense on borrowed funds for the three months ended June
30, 2006 was due to an increase in the average balance of borrowed
funds of $5.14 billion, which was primarily used to fund loan
growth, and a 28 basis point increase in the annualized
weighted-average cost, reflecting the rising market interest rate
environment. The $27.5 million increase in interest expense on
interest-bearing deposits was due to a 108 basis point increase in
the annualized weighted-average cost due to the rising market
interest rate environment, the competitive pricing of our deposit
products and a shift by our customers, during 2005 and the first
six months of 2006, to higher costing short-term time deposits from
our High Value Checking product. Total interest expense for the six
months ended June 30, 2006 increased $157.3 million, or 57.1%, to
$432.6 million compared with $275.3 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2005. This increase was partially due to a $4.62
billion, or 23.9%, increase in the average balance of total
interest- bearing liabilities to $23.92 billion for the six months
ended June 30, 2006 compared with $19.30 billion for the
corresponding period in 2005. The increase in the average balance
of interest-bearing liabilities funded a portion of our asset
growth. The increase in total interest expense was also due to a 77
basis point increase in the annualized weighted-average cost of
total interest-bearing liabilities to 3.65% for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2006 compared with 2.88% for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2005, which reflected the growth and
repricing of our interest-bearing liabilities during the rising
short-term interest rate environment experienced during 2005 and
the first six months of 2006. The $103.4 million increase in
interest expense on borrowed funds for the six months ended June
30, 2006 was due to an increase in the average balance of borrowed
funds of $4.91 billion, which was primarily used to fund loan
growth, and a 25 basis point increase in the annualized
weighted-average cost, reflecting the rising market interest rate
environment. The $54.0 million increase in interest expense on
interest-bearing deposits was due to a 105 basis point increase in
the annualized weighted-average cost due to the rising market
interest rate environment, the competitive pricing of our deposit
products and a shift by our customers, during 2005 and the first
six months of 2006, to higher costing short-term time deposits from
our High Value Checking product. Net interest income for the three
months ended June 30, 2006 increased $21.9 million, or 16.6%, to
$153.6 million compared with $131.7 million for the corresponding
period in 2005. Our net interest rate spread, determined by
subtracting the annualized weighted-average cost of total
interest-bearing liabilities from the annualized weighted-average
yield on total interest- earning assets, was 1.36% for the second
quarter of 2006 compared with 2.02% for the corresponding period in
2005. For the second quarter of 2006, our net interest margin,
determined by dividing annualized net interest income by total
average interest-earning assets, was 2.03% compared with 2.34% for
the corresponding 2005 period. Net interest income for the six
months ended June 30, 2006 increased $53.7 million, or 20.8%, to
$311.3 million compared with $257.6 million for the corresponding
period in 2005. Our net interest rate spread was 1.41% for the
first six months of 2006 compared with 2.11% for the first six
months of 2005. Our net interest margin was 2.09% for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2006 compared with 2.39% for the comparable
period in 2005. The increase in our net interest income reflected
our overall internally generated balance sheet growth and the
investment into short-term securities of the net proceeds from the
second-step conversion and stock offering, partially offset by the
increase in the costs of our deposits and borrowed funds. The
decrease in the net interest rate spread and net interest margin
was primarily due to the increase in the weighted-average cost of
interest- bearing liabilities. This increase reflected the rising
interest rate environment, affecting both our deposits and borrowed
funds, and the shift within our deposits to higher costing
short-term time deposits. The lesser decrease in our net interest
margin when compared to the decrease in our net interest rate
spread reflected the receipt of the net proceeds from the
second-step conversion and stock offering in June 2005. We did not
provide for the allowance for loan losses during the three-month
periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, nor did we provide for the
allowance for loan losses during the first six months of 2006. We
did provide $65,000 during the first six months of 2005. Payment
performance by borrowers has remained strong during the first six
months of 2006, as evidenced by our low loan delinquency rates,
decreasing ratio of non-performing loans to total loans and
increasing ratio of allowance to non-performing loans. Net
charge-offs for the first six months of 2006 were $2,000 compared
with net recoveries of $1,000 for the corresponding 2005 period.
The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 0.16%
at June 30, 2006 compared with 0.18% at December 31, 2005.
Non-performing loans at June 30, 2006 were $18.2 million compared
with $19.3 million at December 31, 2005. The ratio of
non-performing loans to total loans was 0.11% at June 30, 2006
compared with 0.13% at December 31, 2005. The ratio of allowance
for loan losses to total non-performing loans was 150.45% at June
30, 2006 compared with 141.84% at December 31, 2005. Total
non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was
$1.5 million compared with $1.2 million for the corresponding 2005
period. Total non-interest income for the six months ended June 30,
2006 was $2.7 million compared with $5.1 million for the comparable
period in 2005. The decrease in total non-interest income in the
six-month period reflected decreases in gains on securities
transactions, net, as no sales of securities occurred during the
first six months of 2006. Total non-interest expense for the three
months ended June 30, 2006 was $38.5 million compared with $30.3
million during the corresponding 2005 period. This increase
reflected a $5.1 million increase in compensation and employee
benefits primarily due to an increase in the expense related to our
employee stock ownership plan, reflecting increases in our stock
price. Expense related to our previously granted and unvested stock
options, due to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), "Share Based
Payment", amounted to $385,000 during the second quarter of 2006.
Total non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006
was $76.8 million compared with $61.0 million during the
corresponding 2005 period. This increase reflected an $11.5 million
increase in compensation and employee benefits primarily due to an
increase in the expense related to our employee stock ownership
plan. Expense related to our previously granted and unvested stock
options amounted to $918,000 during the first six months of 2006.
Our efficiency ratio for the three months ended June 30, 2006,
determined by dividing total non-interest expense by the sum of net
interest income and total non-interest income, was 24.84% compared
with 22.76% for the corresponding 2005 period. Our annualized ratio
of non-interest expense to average total assets for the three
months ended June 30, 2006 was 0.50% compared with 0.52% for the
corresponding period in 2005. Our efficiency ratio for the six
months ended June 30, 2006 was 24.46% compared with 23.23% for the
corresponding 2005 period. Our annualized ratio of non-interest
expense to average total assets for the six months ended June 30,
2006 was 0.52% compared with 0.56% for the corresponding period in
2005. Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006
was $43.4 million compared with $38.4 million for the corresponding
2005 period. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June
30, 2006 was 37.21% compared with 37.38% for the corresponding
period in 2005. The 13.0% increase in income tax expense reflected
the 13.4% increase in income before income tax expense. Income tax
expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $88.8 million
compared with $75.4 million for the corresponding 2005 period. Our
effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was
37.44% compared with 37.39% for the corresponding period in 2005.
The 17.8% increase in income tax expense reflected the 17.7%
increase in income before income tax expense. Statement of
Financial Condition Summary Total assets increased $3.25 billion,
or 11.6%, to $31.33 billion at June 30, 2006 from $28.08 billion at
December 31, 2005, due to our internally generated growth. The
increase in total assets reflected a $1.91 billion increase in
loans and a $1.03 billion increase in total mortgage-backed
securities. The increase in loans reflected purchases and
originations of first mortgage loans of approximately $1.49 billion
and $1.18 billion, respectively, during the six-months ended June
30, 2006 compared with $1.92 billion and $811.1 million,
respectively, for the corresponding period in 2005. Loan
originations and purchases were exclusively in one- to four-family
mortgage loans. Purchased mortgage loans allow us to grow and
geographically diversify our mortgage loan portfolio at a
relatively low overhead cost while maintaining our traditional
thrift business model. At June 30, 2006, we were committed to
purchase and originate $320.2 million and $273.1 million,
respectively, of first mortgage loans, which are expected to settle
during the third quarter of 2006. The increase in total
mortgage-backed securities reflected purchases of approximately
$1.74 billion, approximately 98.3% of which were variable-rate
(adjustable annually) or hybrid (adjustable annually after fixed
periods of three to five years) instruments. All of our
mortgage-backed securities are directly or indirectly insured or
guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or a U.S.
government-sponsored enterprise. At June 30, 2006, we were
committed to purchase $424.0 million of mortgage-backed securities,
which are expected to settle during the third quarter of 2006.
Total liabilities increased $3.46 billion, or 15.1%, to $26.33
billion at June 30, 2006 from $22.87 billion at December 31, 2005.
The increase in total liabilities primarily reflected a $3.20
billion increase in borrowed funds and a $230.5 million increase in
deposits. The increase in borrowed funds was the result of securing
$4.10 billion of new borrowings at a weighted-average rate of
4.33%. These new borrowings have final maturities of ten years and
initial reprice dates ranging from one to three years. Of total
borrowed funds, $8.35 billion are pursuant to repurchase agreements
and $6.20 billion are advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The
increase in total deposits reflected an $851.0 million increase in
our time deposits and a $363.3 million increase in our money market
checking accounts. These increases were partially offset by a
$961.6 million decrease in our interest-bearing transaction
accounts, due to customers shifting deposits to short-term time
deposits. We plan to grow our assets during the remainder of 2006
primarily through the origination and purchase of mortgage loans,
while purchasing investment and mortgage-backed securities as a
supplement to our investments in mortgage loans. We also plan that
approximately half of the growth in interest-earning assets will be
short-term or variable-rate in nature, in order to assist in the
management of our interest rate risk. We consider a loan or
security to be variable rate if there exists a contractual rate
adjustment during the life of the instrument, including those
variable-rate mortgage-related assets with three- to ten-year
initial fixed-rate periods. The primary funding for our asset
growth is expected to come from customer deposits and borrowed
funds, using the funding source that is most reasonably priced
given the overall market interest rate conditions. During the
second half of 2005 and first half of 2006, we experienced extreme
competitive pricing of short-term deposits in the New York
metropolitan market. During this period, wholesale borrowing costs
were more economical and reflective of current rates. We plan that
the funds borrowed will primarily have initial non-call periods of
one to five years and final maturities of ten years in order to
extend the maturity of our liabilities and assist in the management
of our interest rate risk. We intend to grow customer deposits by
continuing to offer desirable products at competitive, but prudent
rates and by opening new branch offices. During the first half of
2006 we opened four branch offices. The acquisition of Sound
Federal Savings Bank will increase our deposit base and will give
us access to deposits in seven of the top 50 counties in the United
States ranked by median household income. We will continue to
explore branch expansion opportunities in market areas that present
superior opportunities for our traditional thrift model. Total
stockholders' equity decreased $202.8 million to $5.00 billion at
June 30, 2006 from $5.20 billion at December 31, 2005. The decrease
was primarily due to repurchases of 19,382,243 shares of
outstanding common stock at an aggregate cost of $255.9 million,
cash dividends declared and paid to common stockholders of $82.0
million and a $33.3 million further increase in our accumulated
other comprehensive loss primarily due to higher market interest
rates decreasing the market value of our securities available for
sale. These decreases to stockholders' equity were partially offset
by net income of $148.4 million for the first six months of 2006, a
$5.2 million increase due to the exercise of 1,952,644 stock
options, a $6.4 million permanent tax benefit due to the exercise
of stock options and the vesting of shares in our restricted stock
plan, and a $7.5 million increase due to the commitment of shares
for our employee stock benefit plans. In June 2006, the Board of
Directors approved our seventh stock repurchase program to
repurchase up to 56,975,000 shares of common stock. As of June 30,
2006, 58,679,000 shares were available for repurchase under our
existing stock repurchase programs. At June 30, 2006, our
stockholders' equity to asset ratio was 15.96% and our year-to-date
average stockholders' equity to asset ratio was 17.30%. At June 30,
2006, our stockholders' equity per common share, using the
period-end share count of outstanding shares, less purchased but
unallocated employee stock ownership plan shares and less purchased
but unvested management plan shares, was $9.36. Hudson City Bancorp
