Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.25 Per Common Share Declared
LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., July 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Astoria Financial
Corporation (NYSE: AF) ("Astoria"), the holding company for Astoria Federal
Savings and Loan Association ("Astoria Federal"), today reported net income of
$57.5 million, or $0.78 diluted earnings per common share, for the quarter
ended June 30, 2004, representing an increase of 13% and 22%, respectively,
from net income of $50.9 million, or $0.64 diluted earnings per common share,
for the 2003 second quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net
income totaled $110.9 million, or $1.48 diluted earnings per common share, up
3% and 11%, respectively, from $107.3 million, or $1.33 diluted earnings per
common share for the comparable 2003 period.
Second Quarter 2004 Highlights:
Financial:
* Diluted EPS: $0.78, up 22% from last year, up 10% from linked quarter
* Return on average assets: 1.03%, up 17% from last year, up 8% from
linked quarter
* Return on average equity: 16.55%, up 25% from last year, up 10% from
linked quarter
* Return on average tangible equity: 19.09%, up 27% from last year, up
10% from linked quarter
* Total deposits increased $387.0 million, or 13% annualized
* Multifamily/Commercial Real Estate ("CRE") loan portfolio increased
$97.2 million, or 12% annualized, and represents 26% of total loans
* Efficiency ratio: 39.21%
* Non-performing assets to total assets: 0.12%
* Shares repurchased: 1.5 million
Commenting on the second quarter results, George L. Engelke, Jr.,
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Astoria, noted, "We are
pleased to report double-digit increases in quarterly net income, earnings per
share, and related returns, due, primarily, to a 35 basis point increase in
the net interest margin year over year. Second quarter results were somewhat
tempered by the decline in interest rates at the end of the first quarter
which sparked an increase in mortgage refinance activity and a resulting
increase in mortgage repayment cash flow in the second quarter. As a result,
net premium amortization was higher than expected in the second quarter,
negatively impacting margin expansion, and the total loan portfolio reflected
a modest decline. Net premium amortization of $12.7 million in the second
quarter, $4.4 million higher than the 2004 first quarter, was offset by a
recovery of $5.2 million in the MSR valuation allowance which is included in
mortgage banking income, net. Importantly, we are currently experiencing much
lower refinance activity due to the increase in interest rates during the
second quarter which should translate into a resumption of loan growth and
lower premium amortization going forward."
Board Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend
The Board of Directors of the Company, at their July 21, 2004 meeting,
declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per common share. The dividend is

This is the thirty-seventh consecutive quarterly cash dividend declared by the

which authorizes the repurchase of eight million shares, or approximately 10%
of total shares outstanding.

Mortgage loan originations and purchases for the quarter ended June 30,
2004 totaled $1.2 billion compared to $2.0 billion for the 2003 second quarter
and include one-to-four family loan originations and purchases of $933.7
million and $1.6 billion, respectively, predominately 3/1 and 5/1 adjustable
rate loans. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, mortgage loan
originations and purchases totaled $2.1 billion compared to $3.5 billion for
the comparable 2003 period and include one-to-four family loan originations
and purchases of $1.6 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively. The decrease in
mortgage loan volume was due to reduced mortgage loan refinance activity due
to higher interest rates in 2004 as compared to 2003. Mortgage loan
prepayments for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004 totaled $1.1
billion and $1.7 billion, respectively, compared to $1.4 billion and $2.7
billion for the respective 2003 periods.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2004, multifamily and CRE loan originations
totaled $274.0 million compared to the 2003 second quarter volume of $413.3
million. For the six month period ended June 30, 2004, multifamily and CRE
loan originations totaled $514.1 million compared to $648.6 million for the
2003 six month period volume. At June 30, 2004, the multifamily and CRE loan
portfolios totaled $3.3 billion, up $97.2 million from the 2004 first quarter
and $674.4 million, or 26%, from June 30, 2003, and represent 26% of total
loans. The average loan-to-value ratio of the combined multifamily and CRE
loan portfolios continues to be less than 65%, based on current principal
balance and original appraised value, and the average loan balance is less
than $1 million.
The Company's strong multifamily and CRE lending capabilities are
reflected in the growth of these portfolios since 1999:

At June 30, 2004, non-performing loans totaled $26.5 million, or 0.12% of
total assets compared to $36.0 million, or 0.16% of total assets at June 30,
2003. Net charge-offs for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004
totaled $148,000 and $303,000, respectively, or an annualized rate of less
than one basis point of average total loans outstanding. The ratio of the
allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans at June 30, 2004 was 313%.
Mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") increased slightly from March 31, 2004,
decreased $392.6 million from the year ago second quarter, and totaled $8.2
billion at June 30, 2004. Of the total, $2.5 billion, equal to 11% of assets,
are categorized as available-for-sale.

Deposits for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 increased $387.0 million, or
13% on an annualized basis, to $11.9 billion from $11.5 billion at March 31,
2004. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, deposits increased $709.1
million. The increase for the quarter and six month periods was primarily
due to increases of $381.8 million and $760.7 million, respectively, in CD
accounts to $6.3 billion and reflects the continued success of our marketing
campaign that has focused on attracting long-term deposits to enable us to
reduce high cost borrowings. During the second quarter of 2004, $1.1 billion
of CDs, with a weighted average rate of 2.30% and an average maturity at
inception of 14 months, matured and $1.4 billion of CDs were issued or
repriced at a weighted average rate of 2.69% and an average maturity at
inception of 18 months. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, $2.2 billion
of CDs, with a weighted average rate of 2.31% and an average maturity at
inception of 14 months, matured and $2.9 billion of CDs were issued or
repriced with a weighted average rate of 2.60% and an average maturity at
inception of 20 months. "The CD marketing campaign, in addition to replacing
borrowings with deposits, has also produced new customers from our
communities, creating relationship development opportunities that, for
example, during the second quarter, resulted in 26% of new customers and
existing customers without checking accounts being cross-sold new, low-cost
checking accounts, the linchpin for building long-term, profitable customer
relationships. Importantly, our checking cross-sell penetration has increased
to approximately 40% for the month of June," Mr. Engelke noted. Checking
account deposits totaled $1.5 billion at June 30, 2004 and reflected
annualized growth of 10% on a linked quarter basis. Additionally, our small
business banking initiatives continue to result in solid growth of business
deposits, including business savings and checking accounts. At June 30, 2004,
business deposits totaled $268.3 million, increasing at an annualized rate of
24% on a linked quarter basis.
Borrowings totaled $8.8 billion at June 30, 2004, a decrease of $591.0
million from the prior quarter end.
Over the past nine months, in an effort to minimize interest rate risk,
$3.3 billion of borrowings and $3.7 billion of CDs have been extended as shown
in the following chart:

Stockholders' equity was $1.4 billion, or 6.14% of total assets at June
30, 2004. Astoria Federal continues to maintain capital ratios in excess of
regulatory requirements with core, tangible and risk-based capital ratios of
7.11%, 7.11% and 14.69%, respectively, at June 30, 2004.
Second Quarter and Six Month Earnings Summary
Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 increased 18% to
$113.3 million from $96.3 million for the 2003 second quarter and for the six
months ended June 30, 2004 increased 11% to $227.8 million from $205.3 million
for the comparable 2003 six-month period.
Astoria's net interest margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 was
2.13% compared to 2.14% on a linked quarter basis and 1.78% for the prior year
quarter. The one basis point decline in the net interest margin on a linked
quarter basis was primarily attributable to the effect of the $4.4 million
increase in mortgage loan and MBS net premium amortization over the previous
quarter, as previously discussed. Net premium amortization expense increased
53% to $12.7 million for the 2004 second quarter from $8.3 million in the
prior quarter and declined $21.2 million, or 63%, from the year ago second
quarter as detailed in the following chart:
MBS and Mortgage Loan Net Premium Amortization Trends
(Dollars in millions) Year Over Year Linked Quarter

MBS $21.9 $2.9 $4.0 $(17.9) (82%) $1.1 38%

Total $33.9 $8.3 $12.7 $(21.2) (63%) $4.4 53%
Non-interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 totaled $27.9
million compared to $31.5 million for the comparable 2003 quarter. For the
six months ended June 30, 2004 non-interest income decreased to $50.0 million
from $57.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The decreases are
primarily due to the absence of net gain on sales of securities in the 2004
second quarter compared to $8.0 million in net gains on sales of securities in
the 2003 second quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net gain on
sales of securities totaled $2.4 million compared to $10.2 million for the
comparable 2003 period. Customer service fees for the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 2004 totaled $14.6 million and $28.3 million, respectively,
compared to $15.8 million and $30.6 million, respectively, for the comparable
2003 periods. The decreases are primarily due to lower fees from annuity
sales and a decrease in debit card interchange fees caused by a reduction in
the fee structure on signature-based debit card transactions.
Mortgage banking income, net, which is included in non-interest income,
increased $6.7 million and $5.0 million in the respective three and six month
periods ending June 30, 2004 as compared to the respective 2003 periods as
detailed in the table below:
(Dollars in millions) 2Q04 2Q03 1H04 1H03

Mortgage banking income, net $ 6.3 $(0.4) $5.1 $ 0.1
* Mortgage servicing rights
General and administrative expense ("G&A") for the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 2004 totaled $55.4 million and $112.4 million, respectively,
compared to $51.8 million and $103.8 million, respectively, for the comparable
2003 periods. The increase for the quarter is primarily due to increased
compensation and benefits expense and for the six months is due to occupancy,
equipment and systems expense, due to, among other things, systems
enhancements over the past year as well as increased compensation and benefits
expense.
Future Outlook
Commenting on the outlook for the remainder of 2004, Mr. Engelke stated,
"In the current environment of somewhat higher long-term interest rates,
mortgage refinance activity has subsided and purchase mortgage activity, which
represented approximately 70% of our residential loan applications in June,
has remained strong. With the expectation of reduced cash flow from mortgage
loan and MBS prepayments, we expect a resumption of mortgage loan portfolio
growth going forward. Reduced mortgage refinance activity also results in
lower mortgage loan and MBS net premium amortization which should result in a
modest expansion in the net interest margin during the remainder of 2004. We
will remain focused on building our core businesses, with particular emphasis
on growing our deposits and increasing the 1-4 family, multifamily and CRE
loan portfolios."
