[{"type":"text","content":""Flushing Financial delivered strong results for the third quarter, with a 10 basis-point sequential expansion in both GAAP and Core net interest margin. These quarterly results marked a turning point for the Company and demonstrate the successful execution of our strategic priorities and the effectiveness of our balance sheet repositioning initiatives. The 5.7% year-over-year growth in average noninterest-bearing deposits, which now represents 12.2% of total deposits, reflects the strength of our customer relationships and provides us with a stable, low-cost funding base. Our tangible common equity ratio of 8.01% for the quarter was a considerable 101 basis-point improvement from a year ago, underscoring our commitment to maintaining robust capital levels. With our strong loan pipeline of $345.6 million and substantial liquidity position of $3.9 billion, we remain confident in our ability to navigate the evolving macroeconomic landscape. We will continue to adhere to our disciplined underwriting standards and proactive risk management practices as we remain focused on driving sustainable growth, increased profitability and creating long-term shareholder value." - John R.
