ability to achieve our financial and other strategic goals,
including those related to our merger with Flagstar Bancorp, Inc.,
which was completed on December 1,
2022, the purchase and assumption of certain assets and
liabilities of Signature Bridge Bank beginning March 20, 2023 (the "Signature Transaction"), and
our transition to a $100 billion plus
bank.
Forward‐looking statements are typically identified by such
words as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "outlook,"
"estimate," "forecast," "project," "should," and other similar
words and expressions, and are subject to numerous assumptions,
risks, and uncertainties, which change over time. Additionally,
forward‐looking statements speak only as of the date they are made;
the Company does not assume any duty, and does not undertake, to
update our forward‐looking statements. Furthermore, because
forward‐looking statements are subject to assumptions and
uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ,
possibly materially, from those anticipated in our statements, and
our future performance could differ materially from our historical
results.
Our forward‐looking statements are subject to the following
principal risks and uncertainties: general economic conditions and
trends, either nationally or locally; conditions in the securities
markets; changes in interest rates; changes in deposit flows, and
in the demand for deposit, loan, and investment products and other
financial services; changes in real estate values; changes in the
quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios;
changes in future allowance for credit losses requirements under
relevant accounting and regulatory requirements; the ability to pay
future dividends at currently expected rates; changes in our
capital management and balance sheet strategies and our ability to
successfully implement such strategies; changes in competitive
pressures among financial institutions or from non‐financial
institutions; changes in legislation, regulations, and policies;
the success of our blockchain and fintech activities, investments
and strategic partnerships; the restructuring of our mortgage
business; the impact of failures or disruptions in or breaches of
the Company's operational or security systems, data or
infrastructure, or those of third parties, including as a result of
cyberattacks or campaigns; the impact of natural disasters, extreme
weather events, military conflict (including the Russia/Ukraine conflict, the conflict in Israel and surrounding areas, the possible
expansion of such conflicts and potential geopolitical
consequences), terrorism or other geopolitical events; and a
variety of other matters which, by their nature, are subject to
significant uncertainties and/or are beyond our control. Our
forward-looking statements are also subject to the following
principal risks and uncertainties with respect to our merger with
Flagstar Bancorp, which was completed on December 1, 2022, and the Signature Transaction;
the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the transactions
will not be realized when expected or at all; the possibility of
increased legal and compliance costs, including with respect to any
litigation or regulatory actions related to the business practices
of acquired companies or the combined business; diversion of
management's attention from ongoing business operations and
opportunities; the possibility that the Company may be unable to
achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in or as a
result of the transactions within the expected timeframes or at
all; and revenues following the transactions may be lower than
expected. Additionally, there can be no assurance that the
Community Benefits Agreement entered into with NCRC, which was
contingent upon the closing of the Company's merger with Flagstar
Bancorp, Inc., will achieve the results or outcome originally
expected or anticipated by us as a result of changes to our
business strategy, performance of the U.S. economy, or changes to
the laws and regulations affecting us, our customers, communities
we serve, and the U.S. economy (including, but not limited to, tax
laws and regulations).
More information regarding some of these factors is provided in
the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10‐K for the
year ended December 31, 2023, and in
other Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports we file.
Our forward‐looking statements may also be subject to other risks
and uncertainties, including those we may discuss in this
Amendment, during investor presentations, or in our other SEC
filings, which are accessible on our website and at the SEC's
website, www.sec.gov.
