THE FIRST OF LONG ISLAND CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

JUNE 30, 2011

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation reflect banking industry practice and conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported asset and liability balances and revenue and expense amounts and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The First of Long Island Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island, and subsidiaries wholly-owned by the Bank, either directly or indirectly, The First of Long Island Agency, Inc., FNY Service Corp., and The First of Long Island REIT, Inc. The consolidated entity is referred to as the Corporation and the Bank and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the Bank. The Corporation’s financial condition and operating results principally reflect those of the Bank. All intercompany balances and amounts have been eliminated. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The consolidated financial information included herein as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is unaudited. However, such information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods. The December 31, 2010 consolidated balance sheet was derived from the Corporation's December 31, 2010 audited consolidated financial statements. When appropriate, items in the prior year financial statements are reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Index

Investment securities are evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) no less often than quarterly. In determining OTTI, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost; (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions; and (4) whether management has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

When OTTI occurs, management considers whether it intends to sell, or, more likely than not will be required to sell a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized in earnings. For securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment recognized in earnings is limited to the amount related to credit losses, while impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Because the unrealized losses reflected in the preceding tables are attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit losses, and because management does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is not likely that it will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery, the Bank does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2011.

Credit Quality Indicators. The Corporation categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the borrower’s ability to service their debt including, but not limited to, current financial information for the borrower and any guarantors, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends.

Index

Commercial and industrial loans and commercial mortgage loans are risk rated utilizing a ten point rating system. The risk ratings are defined as follows:

1 – 2	Cash flow is of high quality and stable. Borrower has very good liquidity and ready access to traditional sources of credit. This category also includes loans to borrowers secured by cash and/or marketable securities within approved margin requirements.
3 – 4	Cash flow quality is strong, but shows some variability. Borrower has good liquidity and asset quality. Borrower has access to traditional sources of credit with minimal restrictions.
5 – 6	Cash flow quality is acceptable but shows some variability. Liquidity varies with operating cycle and assets provide an adequate margin of protection. Borrower has access to traditional sources of credit, but generally on a secured basis.
7	Watch - Cash flow has a high degree of variability and subject to economic downturns. Liquidity is strained and the ability of the borrower to access traditional sources of credit is diminished.
8	Special Mention - The borrower 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 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.
9	Substandard - Loans are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans 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 Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
10	Doubtful - Loans have all the inherent weaknesses of those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Risk ratings are initially assigned by the lending officer together with any necessary approval authority. The ratings are regularly assessed through ongoing borrower contact, independent loan review, the analysis of the allowance for loan losses and delinquency trends. Commercial and industrial loans and commercial mortgage loans with balances in excess of $500,000 are generally reviewed no less often than annually. Other loans in these categories are reviewed periodically, the frequency of which is determined by the Bank’s ongoing assessments of the borrowers’ condition.

At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the recorded investment in commercial and industrial loans and commercial real estate loans by loan class and risk rating is as follows:

Residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans are risk rated utilizing a three point rating system based on Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) scores and regulatory classification. A FICO score is a tool used in the Bank’s loan approval process, and a minimum score of 680 is generally required. FICO scores for each borrower are updated on an annual basis. The risk ratings are defined as follows:

FICO score is equal to or greater than 680.

FICO score is 635 to 679.

FICO score is below 635 or the loan is classified, criticized or on the watch list.

At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and based on the most recent FICO score obtained by the Corporation, the recorded investment in residential mortgages, home equity loans, and other consumer loans by credit quality indicator is as follows:

4. Stock-based Compensation

The Corporation’s 2006 Stock Compensation Plan permits the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees and non-employee directors for up to 600,000 shares of common stock of which 155,356 shares remain available for grant as of June 30, 2011.

Fair Value of Stock Option Awards. The grant date fair value of option awards is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The values of awards made in 2011 and 2010, as well as the assumptions utilized in determining such values, are presented below.

Index

	2011			2010
Grant date fair value		$ 10.30			$ 9.13
Expected volatility		45.83	%		47.68	%
Expected dividends		3.03	%		3.19	%
Expected term (in years)		7.16			6.82
Risk-free interest rate		1.93	%		2.34	%

Expected volatility was based on historical volatility for the expected term of the options. The Corporation used historical data to estimate the expected term of options granted. The risk-free interest rate is the implied yield at the time of grant on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the options.

Fair Value of Restricted Stock Units. The fair value of restricted stock units is based on the market price of the shares underlying the awards on the grant date, discounted for dividends which are not paid on restricted stock units.

Compensation Expense. Compensation expense for stock options is recognized ratably over the five-year vesting period or the period from the grant date to the participant’s eligible retirement date, whichever is shorter. Compensation expense for RSUs is recognized over the three-year performance period and, if necessary, adjusted periodically throughout the period to reflect the estimated number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock into which the RSUs will ultimately be convertible. However, if the period between the grant date and the grantee’s eligible retirement date is less than three years, compensation expense is recognized ratably over this shorter period. In determining compensation expense for options and RSUs outstanding and not yet vested, the Corporation assumes, based on prior experience, that no forfeitures will occur. The Corporation recorded compensation expense for share-based payments of $382,000 and $370,000 and recognized related income tax benefits of $152,000 and $147,000 in the first six months of 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Option Activity. On January 25, 2011, the Corporation’s Board of Directors granted 50,025 nonqualified stock options under the 2006 Plan and on April 1, 2011 granted an additional 500 nonqualified stock options. The options were granted at prices equal to the fair market value of one share of the Corporation’s stock on the dates of grant.

A summary of stock options outstanding under the Corporation’s stock compensation plans as of June 30, 2011 and changes during the six month period then ended is presented below.

	Number of Options			Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (yrs.)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Outstanding at January 1, 2011		476,095		$	20.72

Exercisable at June 30, 2011		325,290		$	20.71	4.23	$	2,337

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the first six months of 2011 and 2010 was $440,000 and $312,000, respectively.

Restricted Stock Activity. On January 25, 2011, the Corporation’s Board of Directors granted 15,620 RSUs under the 2006 Plan. The Corporation’s financial performance for 2013 will determine the number of shares of common stock, if any, into which the RSUs will ultimately be converted. In the table that follows, the number of shares granted represents the maximum number of shares into which the RSUs can be converted. A summary of the status of the Corporation’s nonvested shares as of June 30, 2011 and changes during the six month period then ended is presented below.

Unrecognized Compensation Cost. As of June 30, 2011, there was $1,653,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested equity awards. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.99 years.

Cash Received and Tax Benefits Realized. Cash received from option exercises for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $719,000 and $422,000, respectively. The actual tax benefits realized for the tax deductions from option exercises for the first six months of 2011 and 2010 was $24,000 and $11,000, respectively.

Other. No cash was used to settle stock options during the first six months of 2011 or 2010. The Corporation uses newly issued shares to settle stock option exercises and for the conversion of RSUs.

5. Stockholders’ Equity

On July 20, 2010 the Corporation sold 1,437,500 shares of its common stock in an underwritten public offering at a price of $24 per share. The net proceeds of the offering, after the underwriting discount and offering expenses paid by the Corporation, were $32,362,000.

Earnings Per Share. There were 95,119 and 111,823 shares of common stock underlying equity awards outstanding at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and for the six-month periods then ended, that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been antidilutive for those periods.

Repurchase of Common Stock. The line captioned repurchase of common stock in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity for the six months ended June 30, 2011 is comprised of 5,125 shares of common stock with a value of $136,000 withheld upon the conversion of RSUs and 661 shares with a value of $17,000 that were tendered upon the exercise of stock options. The line captioned repurchase of common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2010 is comprised of 3,581 shares with a value of $91,000 withheld upon the conversion of RSUs. The value of the shares withheld in both six-month periods was used to satisfy the personal tax liabilities of the RSU holders.

Index

The Bank makes cash contributions to the pension plan (the “Plan”) which comply with the funding requirements of applicable Federal laws and regulations. For funding purposes, the laws and regulations set forth both minimum required and maximum tax deductible contributions. The Bank’s cash contributions are usually made once a year just prior to the Plan’s year end of September 30. For the Plan year ending September 30, 2011, the Bank has no minimum required pension contribution and a maximum tax deductible contribution of $4,201,000. The Bank expects to make a contribution within that range by September 30, 2011, but the amount of such contribution has not yet been determined. The Bank contributed $3,741,984 to the Plan for the plan year ended September 30, 2010.

7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value. When measuring fair value, the Corporation uses a fair value hierarchy which is designed to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The hierarchy involves three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Corporation has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Corporation’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The fair values of the Corporation’s investment securities designated as available-for-sale are currently determined on a recurring basis using matrix pricing (Level 2 inputs). Matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities, does not rely exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather on the relationship of such securities to other benchmark quoted securities.

The fair values of the Corporation’s available-for-sale securities are summarized below.

The loans held for sale are nonaccruing and carried at the lower of cost or fair value. The loans have a cost basis of $1,910,000 and $1,300,000, and related valuation allowances of $350,000 and $300,000 at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The fair value of the loans was determined using indications of interest from potential buyers. The valuation allowances were established through charges to other noninterest income.

The impaired loans, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral, had a principal balance of $424,000 and a valuation allowance of $95,000 at June 30, 2011. The valuation allowance was established through a provision for loan losses charged against income.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time. Such estimates are generally subjective in nature and dependent upon a number of significant assumptions associated with each financial instrument or group of similar financial instruments, including estimates of discount rates, risks associated with specific financial instruments, estimates of future cash flows, and relevant available market information. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. In addition, fair value estimates do not reflect the value of anticipated future business, premiums or discounts that could result from offering for sale at one time the Corporation’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, or the tax consequences of realizing gains or losses on the sale of financial instruments. The following table sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value in the Corporation’s financial statements.

Accrued interest payable		3,498		3,498		3,027		3,027

The following methods and assumptions are used by the Corporation in measuring the fair value of financial instruments disclosed in the preceding table.

Cash and cash equivalents. The recorded book value of cash and cash equivalents is their fair value.

Held-to-maturity securities. Fair values are based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or derived principally from observable market data.

Loans. Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. The total loan portfolio is first divided into adjustable and fixed rate interest terms. For adjustable rate loans that are subject to immediate repricing, the recorded book value less the related allowance for loan losses is a reasonable estimate of fair value. For adjustable rate loans that are subject to repricing over time and fixed rate loans, fair value is calculated by discounting anticipated future repricing amounts or cash flows using discount rates equivalent to the rates at which the Bank would currently make loans which are similar with regard to collateral, maturity, and the type of borrower. The discounted value of the repricing amounts and cash flows is reduced by the related allowance for loan losses to arrive at an estimate of fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock. The recorded book value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock is its fair value because Federal Home Loan Bank of New York stock is redeemable at cost.

Deposit liabilities. The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as checking deposits, money market deposits, NOW accounts and savings deposits, is equal to their recorded book value. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is equivalent to the rate currently offered by the Bank for deposits of similar size, type and maturity.

Borrowed funds. For short-term borrowings maturing within ninety days, the recorded book value is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of long-term debt, including repurchase agreements with embedded derivative instruments, is based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is equivalent to the rate currently charged for borrowings of similar type and maturity.

Accrued interest receivable and payable. For these short-term instruments, the recorded book value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Off-balance-sheet Items. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is not considered to be material.

8. Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

The pronouncements discussed in this section are not intended to be an all inclusive list, but rather only those pronouncements that could potentially have an impact on the Corporation’s results of operations, financial position or disclosures.

In July 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-20 “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses.” This ASU requires significantly more disclosure about credit quality in a financial institution’s portfolio and the allowance for credit losses. The required disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The required disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-20 resulted in the disclosures included in “Note 3–Loans” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

9. Impact of Not Yet Effective Authoritative Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-2 “A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring.” The amendments in ASU 2011-2 provide additional guidance to assist creditors in determining whether a restructuring of a receivable meets the criteria to be considered a troubled debt restructuring. ASU 2011-2 also implements the disclosure requirements regarding troubled debt restructurings set forth in ASU 2010-20. ASU 2011-2 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2011-2 will result in additional disclosures regarding troubled debt restructurings.

Index

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-4 “Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” ASU 2011-4 represents the converged guidance of the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board on fair value measurement. The Boards have concluded that the common requirements will result in greater comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in ASU 2011-4 are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2011-4 on the Corporation’s fair value measurements and disclosures.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05 “Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” The amendments in ASU 2011-5 allow an entity the option to present total comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. ASU 2011-05 should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective for and interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2011-5 on the Corporation’s disclosures.

ITEM 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected the Corporation’s financial condition and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements. The Corporation’s financial condition and operating results principally reflect those of its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island, and subsidiaries wholly-owned by the Bank, either directly or indirectly, The First of Long Island Agency, Inc., FNY Service Corp. (“FNY”), and The First of Long Island REIT, Inc. (“REIT”). The consolidated entity is referred to as the “Corporation” and the Bank and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Bank.” The Bank’s primary service area is Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Long Island. However, the Bank has three commercial banking branches in Manhattan and may open additional New York City branches in the future.

Overview

The Corporation reported net income of $9.4 million, or $1.07 per share, for the first six months of 2011 versus $9.6 million, or $1.31 per share, for the same period last year. Securities gains were $122,000 for the current six-month period versus $1.7 million for the same period last year. Excluding these gains from each period, net income is up $783,000, or 9.1%. From an earnings per share perspective, the current six-month period includes the dilutive effect of the sale of 1.4 million shares of common stock in July 2010.

In addition to the decrease in securities gains, an increase in the provision for loan losses of $285,000 and an increase in occupancy and equipment expense of $392,000 are the most significant reasons for the decrease in net income for the current six-month period versus the same period last year. Substantially offsetting the negative earnings impact of these items was an increase in net interest income of $1.2 million and a reduction in income tax expense of $738,000. In addition to a decrease in income before income taxes, a significant reason for the decrease in income tax expense was an increase in income on tax-exempt municipal securities of $1.0 million, or 21.9%.

Net interest income increased for a variety of reasons including an overall increase in total average interest-earning assets of $124.9 million, or 8.0%. In addition, the mix of the Bank’s interest-earning assets improved in that runoff from lower yielding taxable securities was used to fund growth in higher yielding asset categories, namely loans and tax-exempt securities. The remainder of the growth in loans and tax-exempt securities was largely funded by increases in checking deposits and capital, both desirable funding sources because neither has an associated interest cost. The benefit derived from the growth, change in mix, and utilization of noninterest-bearing funding sources outweighed the negative impact of market driven declines in yield on both the Bank’s securities and loan portfolios. The Bank’s net interest income also benefitted from management’s successful efforts to decrease the overall cost of interest-bearing liabilities, despite measures taken to mitigate the negative impact that future increases in interest rates could have on the Bank’s earnings. These measures, which included extending deposit liabilities through the promotion of five-year time deposits and additional long-term borrowings, resulted in paying more for funding today in exchange for possibly reducing the potential negative impact that future increases in interest rates could have on the Bank’s earnings.

Index

Occupancy and equipment expense increased when comparing the six-month periods largely due to branch expansion. Since the beginning of 2010, the Bank opened five new branches and is scheduled to open a sixth new branch in the next few weeks. Despite the cost of personnel needed to staff the new branches and the impact of normal annual salary increases, salaries for the first six months of 2011 were slightly lower than the same period last year and employee benefit expense declined by $162,000, or 5.9%. The decrease in salaries was achieved by partially staffing the new branches with experienced personnel from existing branches and through staff reductions due to attrition. As a result of these efficiency measures, the number of full-time-equivalent employees remained relatively flat over the last year and the average cost per employee declined slightly. Management believes that these efficiency measures were executed without compromising internal controls or service quality. A significant portion of the decrease in employee benefit expense is attributable to a decrease in retirement plan expense. Contributing to the decline in retirement plan expense were pension plan design changes effective February 28, 2011.

The Bank’s allowance for loan losses to gross loans (“reserve coverage ratio”) was 1.55% at the beginning and end of the current six-month period compared to 1.25% and 1.38%, respectively, at the beginning and end of the comparable period last year. The $1.9 million provision for loan losses for the first half of this year is primarily attributable to loan growth and the impact of a $1.3 million chargeoff on one loan transferred to the held for sale category. The $1.6 million provision for the first half of last year was also attributable to loan growth and, additionally, the 13 basis point increase in the reserve coverage ratio resulting from management’s assessment of national and local economic conditions. The credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio remains excellent as evidenced by, among other things, a low level of delinquent loans. Total delinquent loans amounted to $3.0 million at June 30, 2011, comprised of loans past due 30 to 89 days of $2.0 million and nonaccrual loans of $1.0 million. In addition, although troubled debt restructurings increased by $1.8 million during the current six-month period, they remain low at $4.4 million and most of these loans are performing in accordance with their modified terms. The credit quality of the Bank’s securities portfolio also remains excellent. The Bank’s mortgage securities are backed by mortgages underwritten on conventional terms, and almost all of these securities are full faith and credit obligations of the U.S. government. The remainder of the Bank’s securities portfolio consists principally of municipal securities rated AA or better by major rating agencies.

The Bank’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios were 9.27%, 20.44% and 21.70%, respectively, at June 30, 2011. The strength of the Corporation’s balance sheet, from both a capital and asset quality perspective, positions the Bank for continued growth in a measured and disciplined fashion. Key strategic initiatives with respect to the Bank’s earnings prospects will continue to include loan growth and expansion of the Bank’s branch distribution system both on Long Island and in New York City. Thus far in 2011, the Bank opened a full service branch in Point Lookout, Long Island and is scheduled to open a full service branch in Massapequa, Long Island within the next few weeks.

Tax-equivalent basis. Interest income on a tax-equivalent basis includes the additional amount of interest income that would have been earned if the Corporation's investment in tax-exempt loans and investment securities had been made in loans and investment securities subject to Federal income taxes yielding the same after-tax income. The tax-equivalent amount of $1.00 of nontaxable income was $1.52 in each period presented based on a Federal income tax rate of 34%.

Represents the change not solely attributable to change in rate or change in volume but a combination of these two factors. The rate/volume variance shown in the table could be allocated between the volume and rate variances shown in the table based on the absolute value of each to the total for both.

Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis increased by $1.8 million when comparing the first six months of 2011 to the same period last year. The most significant reasons for the increase in net interest income were growth in the Bank’s higher yielding asset categories, namely loans and tax-exempt securities, and decreases in the rates paid on savings and money market deposits. When comparing the first six months of 2011 to the same period last year, the average balance of loans grew by $83.4 million, or 9.8%, and the average balance of tax-exempt securities grew by and $57.7 million, or 25.8%. Growth in these asset categories was largely funded by $21.3 million of runoff from lower yielding taxable securities and growth of $48.1 million in checking deposits and $44.1 million in capital. Checking deposits and capital are both desirable funding sources because neither has an associated interest cost. Also funding a portion of the increase in loans and tax-exempt securities was a $29.6 million increase in long-term borrowings. Partially offsetting the positive impact on net interest income of the aforementioned items were market driven declines in yield on both the Bank’s securities and loan portfolios and an increase in the cost of time deposits. The cost of time deposits increased and the overall average balance of such deposits decreased as management promoted higher yielding, longer-term time deposits and was less aggressive in pricing shorter-term, lower yielding time deposits. This liability extension strategy, along with increasing the Bank’s long-term borrowing position, resulted in paying more for funding today in exchange for possibly reducing the potential negative impact that future increases in interest rates could have on the Bank’s earnings.

Index

Net interest spread, or the difference between the overall yield on interest-earning assets and the overall cost of interest-bearing liabilities, decreased by 9 basis points when comparing the first six months of 2011 to the same period last year. This occurred because the negative impact of the market driven declines in yield on the Bank’s securities and loan portfolios and the Bank’s liability extension strategy more than offset the positive impact of management’s lowering of savings and money market deposit rates throughout 2010 and thus far in 2011. Net interest margin declined by 7 basis points for the same reasons as the decline in net interest spread and, to a much lesser degree, because of the increase in low yielding, interest-bearing bank balances. Furthermore, absent the increases in the average balances of checking deposit and capital, the decline in net interest margin would have been greater.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported asset and liability balances and revenue and expense amounts. Our determination of the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting estimate because it is based on our subjective evaluation of a variety of factors at a specific point in time and involves difficult and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. In the event that management’s estimate needs to be adjusted based on, among other things, additional information that comes to light after the estimate is made or changes in circumstances, such adjustment could result in the need for a significantly different allowance for loan losses and thereby materially impact, either positively or negatively, the Bank’s results of operations.

The Bank’s Reserve Committee, which is chaired by the Senior Lending Officer, meets on a quarterly basis and is responsible for determining the allowance for loan losses after considering, among other things, the results of credit reviews performed by the Bank’s independent loan review officers. In addition, and in consultation with the Bank’s Chief Financial Officer, the Reserve Committee is responsible for implementing and maintaining policies and procedures surrounding the calculation of the required allowance. The Bank’s allowance for loan losses is reviewed and approved by the Board Loan Committee on a quarterly basis and is subject to periodic examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Bank’s primary federal banking regulator, whose safety and soundness examination includes a determination as to its adequacy to absorb probable incurred losses.

The first step in determining the allowance for loan losses is to identify loans in the Bank’s portfolio that are individually deemed to be impaired. In doing so, subjective judgments need to be made regarding whether or not it is probable that a borrower will be unable to pay all principal and interest due according to contractual terms. Once a loan is identified as being impaired, the amount of the impairment loss, if any, that needs to be included in the overall allowance for loan losses is determined by management using the discounted value of expected future cash flows or, as a practical expedient, the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The fair value of collateral is also used by management to measure impairment losses when foreclosure is probable. In estimating the fair value of real estate collateral, management utilizes appraisals and also makes qualitative judgments based on, among other things, its knowledge of the local real estate market and analyses of current economic conditions and trends. Estimating the fair value of collateral other than real estate is also subjective in nature and sometimes requires difficult and complex judgments. Determining expected future cash flows can be more subjective than determining the fair value of collateral. Expected future cash flows could differ significantly, both in timing and amount, from the cash flows actually received over the loan’s remaining life.

Index

In addition to estimating losses for loans individually deemed to be impaired, management also estimates collective impairment losses for pools of loans that are not specifically reviewed. Statistical information regarding the Bank’s historical loss experience over a period of time is the starting point in making such estimates. However, future losses could vary significantly from those experienced in the past and on a quarterly basis management adjusts its historical loss experience to reflect current conditions. In doing so, management considers a variety of general qualitative factors and then subjectively determines the weight to assign to each in estimating losses. The factors include, among others, the level of and trends in delinquencies, national and local economic conditions and trends, trends in the nature and volumes of loans, concentrations of credit, changes in lending policies and procedures, experience, ability and depth of the Bank’s lending staff, changes in the quality of the Bank’s loan review function, environmental risks and loan risk ratings. Because of the nature of the factors and the difficulty in assessing their impact, management’s resulting estimate of losses may not accurately reflect actual losses in the portfolio.

Although the allowance for loan losses has two separate components, one for impairment losses on individual loans and one for collective impairment losses on pools of loans, the entire allowance for loan losses is available to absorb realized losses as they occur whether they relate to individual loans or pools of loans.

Asset Quality

The Corporation has identified certain assets as risk elements. These assets include nonaccruing loans, problem loans held for sale, foreclosed real estate, loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments and still accruing and troubled debt restructurings. These assets present more than the normal risk that the Corporation will be unable to eventually collect or realize their full carrying value. The Corporation’s risk elements at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are as follows:

	June 30,			December 31,
	2011			2010
	(dollars in thousands)

Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses increased by $630,000 during the first six months of 2011, amounting to $14.6 million, or 1.55% of total loans at June 30, 2011, as compared to $14.0 million, or 1.55% of total loans at December 31, 2010. During the first six months of 2011 the Bank had loan chargeoffs and recoveries of $1,262,000 and $9,000, respectively, and recorded a $1,883,000 provision for loan losses. Unlike the first half of 2010 when the reserve coverage ratio increased from 1.25% to 1.38%, the reserve coverage ratio remained constant in the first half of 2011. Nonetheless, the provision for loans losses was up $285,000 when comparing the first half of 2011 to the same period last year because of the impact of a $1,257,000 chargeoff on one commercial mortgage loan transferred to loans held for sale.

The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management currently believes will be adequate to absorb probable incurred losses in the Bank’s loan portfolio. As more fully discussed in the “Application of Critical Accounting Policies” section of this discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, the process for estimating credit losses and determining the allowance for loan losses as of any balance sheet date is subjective in nature and requires material estimates. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

The amount of future chargeoffs and provisions for loan losses will be affected by, among other things, economic conditions on Long Island and in New York City. Such conditions could affect the financial strength of the Bank’s borrowers and will affect the value of real estate collateral securing the Bank’s mortgage loans. Loans secured by real estate represent approximately 95% of the Bank’s total loans outstanding at June 30, 2011. In the last few years general economic conditions have been unfavorable as characterized by high levels of unemployment, declines in commercial and residential real estate values, and increases in commercial real estate vacancies. These conditions have caused and could cause some of the Bank’s borrowers to be unable to make the required contractual payments on their loans and have caused and could cause the Bank to be unable to realize the full amount due on loans through foreclosure or other collection efforts.

Future provisions and chargeoffs could also be affected by environmental impairment of properties securing the Bank’s mortgage loans. At the present time, management is not aware of any environmental pollution originating on or near properties securing the Bank’s loans that would materially affect the carrying value of such loans.

Noninterest Income, Noninterest Expense, and Income Taxes

Noninterest income includes service charges on deposit accounts, Investment Management Division income, gains or losses on sales of securities, and all other items of income, other than interest, resulting from the business activities of the Corporation. Noninterest income decreased $1.6 million, or 32.5%, when comparing the first six months of 2011 to the same period last year. The decrease is principally due to a $1.6 million decrease in net gains on sales of available-for-sale securities and a $153,000 decrease in overdraft charges. Overdraft charges declined partially because of regulatory changes that accelerated the timeframe for check clearing and limited overdrafts caused by debit card transactions.

Noninterest expense is comprised of salaries, employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expense and other operating expenses incurred in supporting the various business activities of the Corporation. Noninterest expense increased $271,000, or 1.5%, from $17.9 million for the first six months of 2010 to $18.2 million for the current six-month period. The increase is principally due to a $392,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense, as partially offset by a $162,000 decrease in employee benefits expense.

Index

The increase in occupancy and equipment expense is primarily due to branch expansion and maintenance of facilities. A significant portion of the decrease in employee benefits expense is attributable to a decrease in retirement plan expense. Contributing to the decline in retirement plan expense were pension plan design changes effective February 28, 2011. Salaries expense decreased by $8,000 primarily because increases due to normal annual salary adjustments were more than offset by the staffing efficiencies discussed previously.

Income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income (“effective tax rate”) was 20.3% for the first six months of 2011 as compared to 24.6% for the same period last year. The decrease in the effective tax rate occurred because income on tax-exempt securities became a larger percentage of pre-tax income.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 versus June 30, 2010

Net income for the second quarter of 2011 was $4.7 million, or $.53 per share, as compared to $5.0 million, or $.68 per share, for the same quarter last year. The primary reasons for the decrease in net income are a $1.2 million decrease in net gains on sales of available-for-sale securities, a $259,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense, and a $209,000 increase in the provision for loan losses. The negative impact of these items was partially offset by a $585,000 increase in net interest income, a $135,000 decrease in employee benefits expense, and a decrease in income tax expense of $552,000. The reasons for these variances are substantially the same as those discussed with respect to the six-month periods.

Capital

The Corporation’s capital management policy is designed to build and maintain capital levels that exceed regulatory requirements. Under current regulatory capital standards, banks are classified as well capitalized, adequately capitalized or undercapitalized. Under such standards, a well-capitalized bank is one that has a total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 10%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 6%, and a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio equal to or greater than 5%. The Bank’s total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 1 leverage capital ratios of 21.70%, 20.44% and 9.27%, respectively, at June 30, 2011 exceed the regulatory criteria for a well-capitalized bank. The Corporation (on a consolidated basis) is subject to minimum risk-based and leverage capital requirements, which the Corporation exceeds at June 30, 2011.

Total stockholders' equity increased by $17.6 million, from $156.7 million at December 31, 2010 to $174.3 million at June 30, 2011. The primary reasons for the increase are net income of $9.4 million and unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities of $10.8 million, as partially offset by $3.9 million in cash dividends declared.

Russell 3000 and 2000 Indexes. The Corporation’s common stock is included in the Russell 3000 and Russell 2000 Indices, which are reconstituted in June of each year. Upon reconstitution in June 2011, the average market capitalization of companies in the Russell 2000 Index was $1.3 billion, the median market capitalization was $563 million, the capitalization of the largest company in the index was $3.0 billion, and the capitalization of the smallest company in the index was $130 million. The Corporation’s market capitalization as of June 30, 2011 was approximately $244 million.

The Corporation believes that inclusion in the Russell indices positively affects the price, trading volume and liquidity of its common stock. Conversely, if the Corporation’s market capitalization falls below the minimum necessary to be included in the indices at any future reconstitution date, the opposite could occur.

Index

Cash Flows and Liquidity

Cash Flows. The Corporation’s primary sources of cash are deposit growth, maturities and amortization of loans and investment securities, operations, and borrowings. The Corporation uses cash from these and other sources to fund loan growth, purchase investment securities, repay borrowings, expand and improve its physical facilities and pay cash dividends. During the first six months of 2011, the Corporation’s cash and cash equivalent position increased by $46.1 million from $18.4 million at December 31, 2010 to $64.5 million at June 30, 2011. The increase, which is temporary in nature, occurred primarily because of the time needed by management to suitably invest and lend the funds provided by significant deposit growth. Total deposits grew by $156.2 million, or 12.1%, during the first six months of this year.

Liquidity. The Bank has a Board approved Liquidity Policy and Liquidity Contingency Plan which are intended to insure that the Bank has sufficient liquidity at all times to meet the ongoing needs of its customers in terms of credit and deposit outflows, take advantage of earnings enhancement opportunities and respond to liquidity stress conditions if and when they arise.

The Bank has both internal and external sources of liquidity. The Bank’s primary internal sources of liquidity are investment securities designated as available-for-sale and maturities and monthly payments on its investment securities and loan portfolios. At June 30, 2011, the Bank had approximately $457 million in unencumbered available-for-sale securities.

The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“FRB”) and the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB”), has repurchase agreements in place with a number of brokerage firms and commercial banks and has federal funds lines with several commercial banks. In addition to customer deposits, the Bank’s primary external sources of liquidity are secured borrowings from the FRB, FHLB and repurchase agreement counterparties. In addition, the Bank can purchase overnight federal funds under its existing lines. However, the Bank’s FRB membership, FHLB membership, repurchase agreements and federal funds lines do not represent legal commitments to extend credit to the Bank. The amount that the Bank can potentially borrow is currently dependent on, among other things, the amount of unencumbered eligible securities and loans that the Bank can use as collateral and the collateral margins required by the lenders. Based on collateral in place at the FRB and FHLB at June 30, 2011, the Bank had a total borrowing capacity of approximately $750 million.

Legislation and Regulatory Matters

In July 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Reform Act”) was signed into law. The Reform Act includes sweeping changes that increase regulation and oversight of the financial services industry and impose restrictions on the ability of firms within the industry to conduct business consistent with historical practices. The Reform Act addresses, among other things, corporate governance, systemic risk, deposit insurance assessments, consumer financial protection, interchange fees, derivatives, lending limits, interest on business checking and reassignment of regulatory authority among agencies. In particular, the Reform Act contains the following provisions which could have a significant impact on the Corporation and the Bank.

Index

A change in the FDIC deposit insurance assessment base, a change in the assessment rates applicable to each risk category, and the discontinuation of a separate assessment for providing unlimited insurance coverage on transaction accounts. These changes were phased in between January 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011. They are expected to decrease the Bank’s deposit insurance expense by approximately $800,000 in 2011 and, had the changes been in effect for the entire year, would have decreased the Bank’s deposit insurance expense by approximately $1.1 million.

The unlimited FDIC deposit insurance coverage on noninterest-bearing transaction accounts and Interest on Lawyer Trust Accounts is extended for two years through December 31, 2012.

The Federal Reserve Board is given the authority to require that debit interchange rates be “reasonable and proportionate to the cost incurred by the issuer with respect to the transaction.” On June 29, 2011, the Federal Reserve Board issued a final rule establishing standards for debit card interchange fees for issuers that, together with their affiliates, have assets of greater than $10 billion. Under the final rule, which becomes effective October 1, 2011, the maximum permissible interchange fee will be the sum of 21 cents per transaction plus 5 basis points multiplied by the value of the transaction. While the Bank is exempt from the final rule, it may need to reduce its interchange fees in order to remain competitive or because of implementation issues.

The long standing prohibition on the payment of interest on corporate checking deposits is repealed effective July 2011. Although the Bank is not currently planning on paying interest on its corporate checking deposits, it may need to do so in order to remain competitive. Commercial checking deposits currently account for approximately 21% of the Bank’s total deposits. If the Bank needs to pay interest on these deposits and is unable to offset the resulting interest cost with service charges on these accounts, it could have a material adverse impact on the Corporation’s results of operations.

The minimum Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) ratio is increased from 1.15% of insured deposits to 1.35% and the FDIC is required to reach that level by September 30, 2020. Based on the most recent available information, the DIF balance was a negative $1 billion at March 31, 2011 and would need to be increased by approximately $87 billion to be at the statutory minimum of 1.35% of insured deposits. The long-term impact of this change on the Bank’s deposit insurance cost is uncertain.

Certain provisions of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the “ARRA”) resulted in more municipal security issuances qualifying for favorable tax treatment by banks and exempted many such issuances from the federal alternative minimum tax (“AMT”). Management took advantage of these provisions and purchased a significant amount of tax-advantaged municipal securities during 2009 and 2010 at what is believed to be attractive yields and without the usual limitations imposed by the AMT. These provisions of the ARRA impacting municipal securities expired on December 31, 2010. The expiration of these provisions will serve to limit the amount of municipal securities that the Bank can hold without being subject to the AMT. In addition, the expiration is also believed to have reduced both the available supply of municipal securities for which the Bank can receive favorable tax treatment and the yields on municipal securities available for purchase by the Bank.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Bank invests in interest-earning assets which are funded by interest-bearing deposits and borrowings, noninterest-bearing deposits, and capital. The Bank’s results of operations are subject to risk resulting from interest rate fluctuations generally and having assets and liabilities that have different maturity, repricing, and prepayment/withdrawal characteristics. The Bank defines interest rate risk as the risk that the Bank's earnings and/or net portfolio value (present value of expected future cash flows from assets less the present value of expected future cash flows from liabilities) will change when interest rates change. The principal objective of the Bank’s asset/liability management activities is to maximize net interest income while at the same time maintain acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risk and facilitate the funding needs of the Bank.

Because the Bank’s loans and investment securities generally reprice slower than its interest-bearing liabilities, an immediate increase in interest rates uniformly across the yield curve should initially have a negative effect on net interest income. However, if the Bank does not increase the rates paid on its deposit accounts as quickly or in the same amount as increases in market interest rates and/or owns interest rate caps that are in-the-money at the time of the interest rate increase or become in-the-money as a result of the increase, the magnitude of the negative impact will decline and the impact could even be positive. Over a longer period of time, and assuming that interest rates remain stable after the initial rate increase and the Bank purchases securities and originates loans at yields higher than those maturing and reprices loans at higher yields, the impact of an increase in interest rates should be positive. This occurs primarily because with the passage of time more loans and investment securities will reprice at the higher rates than time deposits and borrowings, and there will be no offsetting increase in interest expense for those loans and investment securities funded by noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital.

Conversely, a decrease in interest rates uniformly across the yield curve should initially have a positive impact on the Bank’s net interest income. Furthermore, if the Bank owns interest rate floors that are in the money at the time of the interest rate decrease or become in the money as a result of the decrease, the magnitude of the positive impact should increase. However, if the Bank does not or cannot decrease the rates paid on its deposit accounts as quickly or in the same amount as decreases in market interest rates, regardless of whether or not it owns interest rate floors, the magnitude of the positive impact will decline and could even be negative. If interest rates decline, or have declined, and are sustained at the lower levels, the impact on net interest income should be negative. This occurs primarily because with the passage of time more loans and investment securities will reprice at lower rates than time deposits and borrowings, and there will be no offsetting decrease in interest expense for the loans and investment securities funded by noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital.

The Bank monitors and controls interest rate risk through a variety of techniques including the use of interest rate sensitivity models and traditional gap analysis. Through use of the models, the Bank projects future net interest income and then estimates the effect on projected net interest income of various changes in interest rates and balance sheet growth rates. The Bank also uses the models to calculate the change in net portfolio value over a range of interest rate change scenarios.

Traditional gap analysis involves arranging the Bank’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities by repricing periods and then computing the difference, or interest-rate sensitivity gap, between the assets and liabilities which are estimated to reprice during each time period and cumulatively through the end of each time period.

Index

Both interest rate sensitivity modeling and gap analysis involve a variety of significant estimates and assumptions and are done at a specific point in time. Interest rate sensitivity modeling requires, among other things, estimates of: (1) how much and when yields and costs on individual categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities will change because of projected changes in market interest rates; (2) future cash flows; (3) discount rates; and (4) decay or runoff rates for nonmaturity deposits such as checking, savings, NOW and money market accounts.

Gap analysis requires estimates as to when individual categories of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities will reprice and assumes that assets and liabilities assigned to the same repricing period will reprice at the same time and in the same amount. Like sensitivity modeling, gap analysis does not fully take into account the fact that the repricing of some assets and liabilities is discretionary and subject to competitive and other pressures.

Changes in the estimates and assumptions made for interest rate sensitivity modeling and gap analysis could have a significant impact on projected results and conclusions. Therefore, these techniques may not accurately reflect the actual impact of changes in the interest rate environment on the Bank’s net interest income or net portfolio value.

The table that follows is provided pursuant to the market risk disclosure rules set forth in Item 305 of Regulation S-K of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information provided in the following table is based on significant estimates and assumptions and constitutes, like certain other statements included herein, a forward-looking statement. The base case information in the table shows (1) an estimate of the Corporation’s net portfolio value at June 30, 2011 arrived at by discounting estimated future cash flows at current market rates and (2) an estimate of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2012 assuming that maturing assets or liabilities are replaced with new balances of the same type, in the same amount, and at current rate levels and repricing balances are adjusted to current rate levels. For purposes of the base case, nonmaturity deposits are included in the calculation of net portfolio value at their carrying amount. The rate change information in the table shows estimates of net portfolio value at June 30, 2011 and net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2012 assuming rate changes of plus 100 and 200 basis points and minus 100 and 200 basis points. The changes in net portfolio value from the base case have not been tax affected. In addition, cash flows for nonmaturity deposits are based on a decay or runoff rate of six years. Also, rate changes are assumed to be shock or immediate changes and occur uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. In projecting future net interest income under the indicated rate change scenarios, activity is simulated by replacing maturing balances with new balances of the same type, in the same amount, but at the assumed rate level and adjusting repricing balances to the assumed rate level.

Based on the foregoing assumptions and as depicted in the table that follows, an immediate increase in interest rates of 100 or 200 basis points would have a negative effect on net interest income over a one-year time period. This is principally because the Bank’s interest-bearing deposit accounts are assumed to reprice faster than its loans and investment securities. However, if the Bank does not increase the rates paid on its deposit accounts as quickly or in the same amount as increases in market interest rates, the magnitude of the negative impact will decline, and the impact may even become positive. Over a longer period of time, and assuming that interest rates remain stable after the initial rate increase and the Bank purchases securities and originates loans at yields higher than those maturing and reprices loans at higher yields, the impact of an increase in interest rates should be positive. This occurs primarily because with the passage of time more loans and investment securities will reprice at the higher rates than time deposits and borrowings, and there will be no offsetting increase in interest expense for those loans and investment securities funded by noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital. Generally, the reverse should be true of an immediate decrease in interest rates of 100 or 200 basis points. However, the positive impact of a decline in interest rates of 100 or 200 basis points is currently constrained by the fact that the annual percentage yields on many of the Bank’s deposit products are below 1%.
