Summary

OceanFirst Financial Corp. is the holding company for OceanFirst Bank N.A. (the “Bank”), a regional bank serving business and retail customers throughout New Jersey and in the major metropolitan areas of Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, Washington D.C., and Boston. The term “Company” refers to OceanFirst Financial Corp., the Bank and all of their subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. The Company’s results of operations are primarily dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investments, and the interest expense on its interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. The Company also generates non-interest income such as income from bankcard services, trust and asset management products and services, sales of loans and securities, deposit account services, bank owned life insurance, commercial loan swap income, and other fees. The Company’s operating expenses primarily consist of compensation and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, marketing, Federal deposit insurance and regulatory assessments, data processing, check card processing, professional fees and other general and administrative expenses. The Company’s results of operations are also significantly affected by competition, general economic conditions, including levels of unemployment and real estate values, as well as changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory agencies.

The Company has grown significantly through the acquisitions of Two River Bancorp (“Two River”) and Country Bank Holding Company, Inc. (“Country Bank”), each on January 1, 2020. These acquisitions added $2.03 billion in assets, $1.56 billion in loans and $1.59 billion in deposits.

Key developments relating to the Company’s financial results and corporate activities were as follows:

•Loan Growth: Total loan growth for the quarter was $361.0 million. Total loan growth, excluding the impact of Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans of $30.5 million, was $391.5 million for the quarter, reflecting quarterly loan originations of $771.8 million and the purchase of a residential loan pool of $219.7 million. Along with record loan production during the quarter, the committed loan pipeline remains strong at $651.4 million.

•Deposit Growth: Deposits increased $358.8 million during the third quarter, while cost of deposits decreased 5 basis points to 0.22% from 0.27% in the prior linked quarter, reflecting a trend in improving deposit quality.

•Net Interest Income and Margin: Net interest income increased by $3.1 million to $77.1 million from $74.0 million in the prior linked quarter. Net interest margin increased to 2.93%, compared to 2.89% in the prior linked quarter, largely driven by the Bank’s disciplined deposit pricing practices.

Net income available to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $23.2 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, as compared to net loss available to common stockholders of $6.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period. Net income available to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $84.4 million, or $1.41 per diluted share, as compared to $29.2 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period. The dividends paid to preferred stockholders were $1.0 million and $3.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to $1.1 million for each of the corresponding prior year periods. Net income available to common stockholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 included merger related expenses of $225,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, branch consolidation expenses of $4.0 million and $5.1 million, respectively, and net loss on equity investments of $466,000 and net gain on equity investments of $8.4 million, respectively. Net loss available to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2020, included merger related expenses, branch consolidation expenses and a net loss on equity investments of $3.2 million, $830,000, and $3.6 million, respectively. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, included merger related expenses, branch consolidation expenses, a net loss on equity investments, the impact of the Two River and Country Bank opening credit loss expense under the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model, and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advance prepayment fees of $14.8 million, $4.3 million, $3.6 million, $2.4 million and $924,000, respectively.

The Company remains well-capitalized with a stockholders’ equity to total assets ratio of 12.79% at September 30, 2021.

The Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per share. The dividend, related to the quarter ended September 30, 2021, will be paid on November 19, 2021 to common stockholders of record on November 8, 2021. The Board also declared a quarterly cash dividend on preferred stock of $0.4375 per depositary share, representing a 1/40th interest in the Series A Preferred Stock. This dividend will be paid on November 15, 2021 to preferred stockholders of record on October 29, 2021.

As previously announced on August 4, 2021, the Bank entered into a definitive agreement to sell two New Jersey branch locations to First Bank, including the owned premises and equipment, all deposits associated with the branches, which totaled

approximately $124 million as of June 30, 2021, as well as selected performing loans totaling approximately $14 million as of June 30, 2021. The Bank has received the required regulatory approval and the closing of the sale and customer conversion is expected to take place in early December.

Impact of COVID-19

On March 16, 2020, the Company announced a series of actions intended to help mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on customers, employees and communities. The Company began offering its Borrower Relief Programs to address the needs of customers who were current on their loan payments as of either December 31, 2019 or the date of the modification. In keeping with regulatory guidance under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, these loan deferrals were not considered troubled debt restructured (“TDR”) loans at September 30, 2021 and will not be reported as past due during the deferral period. As of September 30, 2021, 98.7% of total loans comply with pre-COVID-19 terms.

Further, due to conditions caused by COVID-19, appraisals ordered in the current environment may not be indicative of the underlying loan collateral value. As such, the Company may require multiple valuation approaches (sales comparison approach, income approach, cost approach), as applicable. The Company will assess the individual facts and circumstances of COVID-19 related loan downgrades and, if a new appraisal is not necessary, an additional discount may be applied to an existing appraisal.

The Company also accepted and processed applications for loans under the PPP, which was originally established under the CARES Act. At September 30, 2021, $52.5 million in PPP loans and $2.0 million in deferred fees remained on the consolidated statements of financial condition. There were no PPP loans originated during the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

On December 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations (“CRRSA”) Act of 2021 was signed into law, which contained provisions that directly impacted financial institutions. The CRRSA Act extended the PPP and provided the Company the ability to continue its Borrower Relief Programs and related TDR and past due reporting considerations.

For further discussion, refer to Part I, Item 1A in the December 31, 2020 Form 10-K - Risk Factors - Risks Related to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Analysis of Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents the difference between income on interest-earning assets and expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends upon the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rate earned or paid on them.

The following tables set forth certain information relating to the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The yields and costs, which are annualized, are derived by dividing the income or expense by the average balance of the related assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown except where noted otherwise. Average balances are derived from average daily balances. The yields and costs include certain fees and costs which are considered adjustments to yields.

(1)Amounts represent debt and equity securities, including FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stock, and are recorded at average amortized cost net of allowance for securities credit losses.

(2)Amount is net of deferred loan costs and fees, undisbursed loan funds, discounts and premiums and allowance for loan credit losses, and includes loans held for sale and non-performing loans.

(3)Net interest rate spread represents the difference between the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

(4)Net interest margin represents net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020

Total assets increased by $381.4 million to $11.83 billion at September 30, 2021, from $11.45 billion at December 31, 2020. Cash and due from banks decreased $291.0 million, to $981.1 million at September 30, 2021, from $1.27 billion at December 31, 2020 as excess liquidity was primarily used to purchase securities and fund loan growth. Total debt securities increased by $319.4 million at September 30, 2021, as compared to December 31, 2020. Total loans, excluding PPP loans of $52.5 million and $95.4 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, increased by $468.6 million, to $8.13 billion at September 30, 2021, from $7.66 billion at December 31, 2020.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 1,460,009 shares under its stock repurchase program at a weighted average cost of $20.98, and there were 3,559,136 shares available for repurchase at September 30, 2021 under the existing repurchase programs. Stockholders’ equity per common share increased to $25.47 at September 30, 2021, as compared to $24.57 at December 31, 2020.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020

General

Net income available to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $23.2 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, as compared to net loss available to common stockholders of $6.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period. Net income available to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $84.4 million, or $1.41 per diluted share, as compared to $29.2 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period. Net income available to common stockholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 included merger related expenses of $225,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, branch consolidation expenses of $4.0 million and $5.1 million, respectively, and net loss on equity investments of $466,000 and net gain on equity investments of $8.4 million, respectively. These items decreased net income by $3.6 million and increased net income by $1.7 million, net of tax, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Net loss available to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2020, included merger related expenses, branch consolidation expenses and a net loss on equity investments of $3.2 million, $830,000, and $3.6 million, respectively. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, included merger related expenses, branch consolidation expenses, a net loss on equity investments, the impact of the Two River and Country Bank opening credit loss expense under the CECL model, and FHLB advance prepayment fees of $14.8 million, $4.3 million, $3.6 million, $2.4 million and $924,000, respectively. These items decreased net loss by $5.8 million and decreased net income by $19.9 million, net of tax, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

Interest Income

Interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 decreased to $85.4 million and $253.6 million, respectively, as compared to $93.0 million and $287.0 million for the corresponding prior year periods, respectively. Average interest-earning assets increased by $192.3 million and $590.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods, primarily concentrated in excess balance sheet liquidity. Average loans receivable, net of allowance for loan credit losses, decreased by $486.1 million and $371.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods, primarily due to reductions in PPP loans. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the yield on average interest-earning assets decreased to 3.24% and 3.29%, respectively, from 3.60% and 3.95% for the corresponding prior year periods, respectively.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $8.3 million and $28.9 million, respectively, as compared to $16.2 million and $51.9 million in the corresponding prior year periods, respectively. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $273.0 million and increased $23.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 0.44% and 0.52%, respectively, from 0.83% and 0.93%, respectively, for the corresponding prior year periods. The total cost of deposits (including non-interest bearing deposits) was 0.22% and 0.28% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to 0.49% and 0.58%, respectively, for the same prior year periods.

Net Interest Income and Margin

Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2021, increased to $77.1 million, as compared to $76.8 million for the corresponding prior year period. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 decreased to $224.8 million as compared to $235.1 million for the corresponding prior year period, as a result of the lower interest rate environment. Net interest margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 decreased to 2.93% and 2.91%, respectively, from 2.97% and 3.23%, respectively, for the same prior year periods. The net interest margin compression was primarily due to the excess balance sheet liquidity and the lower interest rate environment.

Benefit/Provision for Credit Losses

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the credit loss benefit was $3.2 million and $10.3 million, respectively, as compared to a credit loss expense of $35.7 million and $55.3 million, respectively, for the corresponding prior year periods. The credit loss benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was significantly influenced by positive trends in the Bank’s asset quality combined with stabilizing trends in economic forecasts, including strong employment levels and GDP growth, partly offset by the economic uncertainty related to supply chain and labor market constraints.

Net loan recoveries were $386,000 and $442,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to net loan charge-offs of $15.0 million and $15.9 million for the corresponding prior year periods, respectively. The three months ended September 30, 2020 included $14.2 million in charge-offs related to the transfer of higher-risk commercial loans to held-for-sale, which were ultimately sold in the fourth quarter of 2020. Non-performing loans held-for-investment totaled $23.3 million at September 30, 2021, as compared to $29.9 million at September 30, 2020.

Non-interest Income

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, other income increased to $9.9 million and $42.5 million, respectively, as compared to $8.2 million and $33.3 million, respectively, for the corresponding prior year periods. Other income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 included a net loss on equity investments of $466,000 and a net gain on equity investments of $8.4 million, respectively. Other income for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 included $3.6 million of net losses on equity investments. The remaining decrease of $1.4 million in other income for the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the corresponding prior year period, was primarily due to decreases in gain on sale of loans of $1.0 million and fees and service charges of $759,000. The remaining decrease of $2.8 million in other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the corresponding prior year period, was primarily due to a decrease in commercial loan swap income of $5.2 million, as a result of lower activity, and lower fees and service charges of $1.3 million, partially offset by increases in bankcard services of $1.7 million, due to lower card activity in the prior year period as a result of the pandemic, gain on sale of loans of $1.3 million, and PPP loan referral fees of $800,000.

Non-interest Expense

Operating expenses increased to $58.7 million and decreased to $162.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to $56.8 million and $175.5 million, respectively, in the same prior year periods. Operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 included $4.2 million and $6.1 million, respectively, of merger related and branch consolidation expenses. Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 included $4.0 million of merger related and branch consolidation expenses. Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 included $20.0 million of merger related expenses, branch consolidation expenses and FHLB advance prepayment fees. The remaining increase of $1.6 million in operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the corresponding prior year period, was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits expense of $1.7 million and data processing expense of $846,000, partly offset by a decrease in equipment expense of $782,000. The remaining increase of $372,000 in operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the corresponding prior year

period, was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits expense of $2.2 million, primarily related to higher benefit costs, federal deposit insurance and regulatory assessments of $1.4 million, and data processing expense of $953,000, partly offset by decreases in equipment expense of $1.8 million, marketing expense of $930,000, other operating expense of $469,000, and occupancy expense of $434,000.

Income Tax Expense/Benefit

The provision for income taxes was $7.4 million and $28.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to a benefit for income taxes of $2.6 million and provision for income taxes of $7.3 million for the same prior year periods, respectively. The effective tax rate was 23.3% and 24.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to 34.6% and 19.5% for the same prior year periods, respectively. The higher effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to the net loss recognized during the quarter. The higher effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to the impact of a New Jersey tax code change and a higher allocation of taxable income to New York.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, FHLB advances, access to the Federal Reserve discount window, other borrowings, including subordinated debt, and to a lesser extent, investment maturities and proceeds from the sale of loans and equity investments. While scheduled amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, loan prepayments, and loan and equity sales are greatly influenced by interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Company has other sources of liquidity if a need for additional funds arises, including various lines of credit at multiple financial institutions.

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Bank had no outstanding overnight borrowings from the FHLB. The Bank utilizes overnight borrowings from time-to-time to fund short-term liquidity needs. There were also no FHLB term advances at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The Company’s cash needs for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were primarily satisfied by the increase in deposits, proceeds from sales of loans and equity investments, principal repayments on debt securities held-to-maturity, and proceeds from maturities and calls of debt securities. The cash was principally utilized for purchases of debt and equity securities, a purchase of a residential loan pool, and loan originations. The Company’s cash needs for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were primarily satisfied by the increase in deposits, net proceeds from the issuance of subordinated notes and preferred stock, principal payments on mortgage-backed securities, proceeds from maturities and calls of debt securities, proceeds from sale of loans, and acquired cash from acquisitions. The cash was principally utilized for loan originations, the repayment of short-term borrowings, and investment purchases.

In the normal course of business, the Bank routinely enters into various off-balance-sheet commitments, primarily relating to the origination and sale of loans. At September 30, 2021, outstanding commitments to originate loans totaled $651.4 million and outstanding undrawn lines of credit totaled $1.22 billion, of which $870.7 million were commitments to commercial borrowers and $353.0 million were commitments to consumer borrowers and residential construction borrowers. The Company expects to have sufficient funds available to meet current commitments in the normal course of business.

Time deposits scheduled to mature in one year or less totaled $586.7 million at September 30, 2021. Management is optimistic about its ability to retain funds from maturing time deposits and placing them in market comparable deposit products.

The Company has a detailed contingency funding plan and obtains comprehensive reporting of funding trends on a monthly and quarterly basis, which are reviewed by management. Management also monitors cash on a daily basis to determine the liquidity needs of the Bank. Additionally, management performs multiple liquidity stress test scenarios on a quarterly basis. The Bank continues to maintain significant liquidity under all stress scenarios. In response to COVID-19, management identified additional sources of contingent liquidity, including expanded borrowing capacity with the FHLB, the Federal Reserve and existing correspondent bank relationships. The Company also strengthened balance sheet liquidity entering the economic downturn.

Under the Company’s stock repurchase program, shares of OceanFirst Financial Corp. common stock may be purchased in the open market and through other privately-negotiated transactions, from time-to-time, depending on market conditions. The repurchased shares are held as treasury stock for general corporate purposes. The Company repurchased 460,009 shares of common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2021, bringing the total shares repurchased to 1,460,009 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

The primary sources of liquidity specifically available to OceanFirst Financial Corp., the holding company of the Bank, are capital distributions from the Bank, the issuance of preferred and common stock, and debt. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company received a dividend payment of $30.0 million from the Bank. The Company’s ability to continue to pay dividends will be largely dependent upon capital distributions from the Bank, which may be adversely affected

by capital restraints imposed by applicable regulations. The Company cannot predict whether the Bank will be permitted under applicable regulations to pay a dividend to the Company. If applicable regulations or regulatory bodies prevent the Bank from paying a dividend to the Company, the Company may not have the liquidity necessary to pay a dividend in the future or pay a dividend at the same rate as historically paid or be able to meet current debt obligations. Additionally, regulations of the Federal Reserve may prevent the Company from either paying or increasing the cash dividend to common stockholders. At September 30, 2021, OceanFirst Financial Corp. held $83.9 million in cash.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company and the Bank satisfy all regulatory capital requirements currently applicable as follows (dollars in thousands):

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in the financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used for general corporate purposes or for customer needs. Corporate purpose transactions are used to help manage credit, interest rate and liquidity risk or to optimize capital. Customer transactions are used to manage customers’ requests for funding. These financial instruments and commitments include undrawn lines of credit and commitments to extend credit. 

The Company enters into loan sale agreements with investors in the normal course of business. The loan sale agreements generally require the Company to repurchase loans previously sold in the event of a violation of various representations and warranties customary to the mortgage banking industry. The Company is also obligated to repurchase loans previously sold under certain circumstances under a loss sharing arrangement with the FHLB relating to loans sold into the Mortgage Partnership Finance program. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, some of these loans were placed on forbearance and the Company may be required to repurchase them in future periods. In the opinion of management, the potential exposure related to the loan sale agreements and loans sold to the FHLB is adequately provided for in the reserve for repurchased loans and loss sharing obligations included in other liabilities. At each of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserve for repurchased loans and loss sharing obligations was $1.2 million.

The following table shows the contractual obligations of the Company by expected payment period as of September 30, 2021 (in thousands). Refer to Note 9 Leases, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for lease obligations.

Commitments to fund undrawn lines of credit and commitments to originate loans are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments.

(1)     PCD loans are not included in non-performing loans or delinquent loans totals.

The Company’s non-performing loans totaled $23.3 million at September 30, 2021, as compared to $36.4 million at December 31, 2020. Included in the non-performing loans total was $9.6 million and $5.2 million of TDR loans at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Non-performing loans do not include $41.4 million and $48.5 million of acquired PCD loans at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. At September 30, 2021, the allowance for loan credit losses totaled $50.2 million, or 0.61% of total loans, as compared to $60.7 million, or 0.78% of total loans, at December 31, 2020. These ratios exclude existing net unamortized credit and PCD marks on acquired loans of $21.3 million and $28.0 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. 

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impact on customers, short-term modification programs that comply with the CARES Act, extended by the CRRSA Act, were implemented to provide temporary payment relief to those borrowers directly impacted by COVID-19. The Commercial Borrower Relief Program allowed for the deferral of principal and interest or principal only. All payments received will first be applied to all accrued and unpaid interest and the balance, if any, on account of unpaid principal, then to fees, expenses and other amounts due to the Bank. Monthly payments will continue until the maturity date when all then unpaid principal, interest, fees, and all other charges are due and payable to the Bank. The Consumer Borrower Relief Program allowed for the deferral of principal and interest. The deferred payments along with interest accrued during the deferral period are due and payable on the maturity date. Provided these loans were current as of either year end or the date of the modification, these loans are not considered TDR loans at September 30, 2021 and will not be reported as past due during the deferral period.

The Company classifies loans and other assets in accordance with regulatory guidelines. The table below excludes any loans held-for-sale (in thousands):

The decrease in special mention and substandard loans was primarily due to the improvement in the Bank’s borrowers’ ability to service their loans.
