Strong Operating Results Underscored By
Increased Net Interest Margin
Financial Highlights
- The net interest margin for the third quarter of 2024 was
3.62%, an increase of 18 basis points compared to 3.44% for the
second quarter of 2024.
- Total loans at September 30, 2024 were $5.9 billion, an

from September 30, 2023.
- Diluted earnings per share of $1.08 for the third quarter of
2024, compared to $1.50 for the second quarter of 2024. Third
quarter earnings included $12.6 million of pre-tax expenses related

digital transformation initiative, the Global Payments Group
(“GPG”) wind down, and other regulatory remediation costs, all of
which impacted diluted earnings per share by $0.78.

non-performing loans to total loans was 0.53% at September 30,
2024, unchanged from the prior linked quarter.
- Liquidity remains strong. At September 30, 2024, cash on
deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and available
secured funding capacity totaled $3.1 billion, which represented
212% of uninsured deposits.
- The Company and Bank are “well capitalized” under applicable
regulatory guidelines, with total risk-based capital ratios of
13.2% and 12.9%, respectively, at September 30, 2024, well above
regulatory minimums.
Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. (the “Company”) (NYSE: MCB), the
holding company for Metropolitan Commercial Bank (the “Bank”),
reported net income of $12.3 million, or $1.08 per diluted common
share, for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $16.8 million, or
$1.50 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2024, and
$22.1 million, or $1.97 per diluted common share, for the third
quarter of 2023.
Mark DeFazio, President and Chief Executive Officer,
commented,
“The commercial bank continues to report strong underlying
business fundamentals and financial performance. Our net interest
income increased 6% quarter over quarter and 12% year to date
supported by continued strength and growth in our net interest
margin. We continue to deliver on deposit growth despite the
challenging operating environment. Importantly, our year to date
results highlight our ability to manage in a dynamic environment
and we expect our financial results to benefit from the recent
reduction in the Fed Funds target rate and any additional monetary
policy easing in the future.
“We remain laser focused on the exit from the GPG vertical and
continue to make investments in the buildout of our risk management
framework and personnel. We have reserved $10 million to resolve an
investigation with a state agency connected to a fintech client we
last worked with in 2020. With matters such as this behind us, as
well as a full exit from GPG, we believe that the Bank is well
positioned to deliver financial outperformance relative to our
peers.”
Balance Sheet
Total cash and cash equivalents were $318.5 million at September
30, 2024, an increase of $73.8 million, or 30.2%, from June 30,
2024 and an increase of $141.1 million, or 79.6%, from September
30, 2023. The increase from June 30, 2024, primarily reflects a
$100.2 million increase in deposits. The increase from September
30, 2023, primarily reflects a $748.3 million increase in deposits,
partially offset by an increase in the loan book of $542.6 million
and a $105.1 million decrease in wholesale funding.
Total loans, net of deferred fees and unamortized costs, were
$5.9 billion at September 30, 2024, an increase of $58.2 million,
or 1.0%, from June 30, 2024, and an increase of $542.6 million, or
10.1%, from September 30, 2023. Loan production was $460.6 million
for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $290.8 million for the
prior linked quarter and $333.5 million for the prior year period.
The increase in total loans from June 30, 2024 was due primarily to
an increase of $116.7 million in commercial real estate (“CRE”)
loans (including owner-occupied), partially offset by a decrease of
$51.0 million of multi-family loans. The increase in total loans
from September 30, 2023 was due primarily to an increase of $460.0
million in CRE loans (including owner-occupied) and $92.9 million
in commercial and industrial loans.
Total deposits were $6.3 billion at September 30, 2024, an
increase of $100.2 million, or 1.6%, from June 30, 2024, and an
increase of $748.3 million, or 13.6%, from September 30, 2023. The
increase from June 30, 2024 was due primarily to an increase of
$133.4 million in property manager deposits and $105.6 million in
retail deposits, partially offset by a $122.0 million decrease in
GPG deposits. The increase in deposits from September 30, 2023, was
due to broad based increases across most of the Bank’s various
deposit verticals.
At September 30, 2024, cash on deposit with the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York and available secured funding capacity totaled
$3.1 billion. The Company and the Bank each met all the
requirements to be considered “well capitalized” under applicable
regulatory guidelines. Total non-owner-occupied commercial real
estate loans were 353.3% of total risk-based capital at September
30, 2024, compared to 358.4% and 374.8% at June 30, 2024 and
September 30, 2023, respectively.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the third quarter of 2024 was $65.2
million compared to $61.5 million for the prior linked quarter and
$53.6 million for the prior year period. The $3.7 million increase
from the prior linked quarter was due primarily to an increase in
the average balance of loans and an increase in the yield on loans,
partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of overnight
deposits and a modest increase in the cost of funds. The $11.7
million increase from the prior year period was due primarily to an
increase in the average balance of loans, an increase in loan
yields, and a decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds,
partially offset by an increase in the average balance of deposits
and an increase in the cost of funds.
Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2024 was 3.62%
compared to 3.44% and 3.27% for the prior linked quarter and prior
year period, respectively. The 18 basis point increase from the
prior linked quarter was driven largely by an increase in the
average balance of loans and an increase in loan yields in
combination with elevated prepayment penalties and deferred fee
recognition as a result of an increased level of loan payoffs,
partially offset by an increase in the cost of funds. The 35 basis
point increase from the prior year period was due primarily to an
increase in the average balance of loans, an increase in loan
yields, and a decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds,
partially offset by an increase in the average balance of deposits
and an increase in the cost of funds.
The total cost of funds for the third quarter of 2024 was 339
basis points compared to 334 basis points and 303 basis points for
the prior linked quarter and prior year period, respectively. The
increase from the prior linked quarter reflects the continued
effects of high short-term interest rates and the intense
competition for deposits, as well as the runoff of lower cost GPG
deposits replaced with market rate deposits. The increase from the
prior year period reflects the continued effects of high short-term
interest rates, the intense competition for deposits, and a shift
from non-interest bearing deposits to interest bearing funding
primarily related to the exit from the crypto-related deposit
vertical during 2023.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income was $6.3 million for the third quarter of
2024, an increase of $146,000 from the prior linked quarter and a
decrease of $228,000 from the prior year period. The increase from
the prior linked quarter was driven primarily by an increase in
wire and letter of credit fees, partially offset by the continuing
decline in GPG revenue as that business is wound down. The decrease
from the prior year period was driven primarily by lower GPG
revenue, partially offset by an increase in service charges on
deposit accounts.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense was $51.3 million for the third quarter of
2024, an increase of $9.0 million from the prior linked quarter and
an increase of $20.3 million from the prior year period. The $9.0
million increase from the prior linked quarter was due primarily to
the pre-tax $10 million regulatory reserve and a $1.4 million
increase in compensation and benefits, partially offset by a $2.2
million decline in professional fees. The $20.3 million increase
from the prior year period was due primarily to the pre-tax $10
million regulatory reserve, $2.7 million increase in compensation
and benefits related to the increase in number of employees, and
$1.8 million increase in technology costs related to the digital
transformation initiative.
Income Tax Expense
The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2024 was 30.2%
compared to 29.7% for the prior linked quarter and 22.2% for the
prior year period. The effective tax rate for the prior year period
reflects a discrete tax item related to the exercise of stock
options in the third quarter of 2023 and the reversal of the
regulatory settlement reserve in that period.
Asset Quality
Credit quality remains stable. The ratio of non-performing loans
to total loans was 0.53% at September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024.
The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.58% at
September 30, 2023.
The allowance for credit losses was $62.5 million at September
30, 2024, an increase of $2.5 million from June 30, 2024, which
reflects loan growth production and a modest increase in the
duration of the loan book.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP
Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), this earnings
release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management
believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful
information to investors in understanding the Company’s operating
performance and trends. These non-GAAP measures have inherent
limitations and are not required to be uniformly applied and are
not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for an analysis of results reported under GAAP. These
non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of
non-GAAP/adjusted financial measures disclosed in this earnings
release to the comparable GAAP measures are provided in the
following tables:
