Federal Home Loan Bank of New York Announces Second Quarter 2024 Operating Highlights

NEW YORK, July 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (?FHLBNY?) today released its unaudited financial highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.? ?

?Throughout the first six months of 2024, the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York executed on our foundational liquidity mission, delivering stable and reliable funding to our members to help facilitate the flow of credit to households, communities and small businesses across our region,? said Jos? R. Gonz?lez, president and CEO of the FHLBNY. ?We also continued to provide significant support for affordable housing and community development initiatives during this time, launching the 2024 Rounds of our Affordable Housing Program (?AHP?) and Homebuyer Dream Program with a record $100 million in total grant funding available between the two programs, as well as other programs aimed at supporting growth at the local level. Additionally, through the first half of the year, we have set aside approximately $45 million for our 2025 AHP Round directly from our earnings.?

Highlights from the second quarter of 2024 include:

• Net income for the quarter was $181.3 million, a decrease of $34.5 million, or 16.0%, from net income of $215.8 million for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease was driven primarily by record performance in the second quarter of 2023 as the FHLBNY responded to challenges experienced in the banking sector in the Spring of 2023. Net interest income for the quarter was $247.7 million, a decrease of $27.1 million, or 9.8%, from $274.8 million in the second quarter of last year, mainly driven by a year-over-year decrease in average advances balances of 9.8%. Non-interest expense increased by $12.7 million to $63.8 million in the second quarter of 2024 primarily due to increases in headcount, technology investments, and voluntary contributions to housing and community development initiatives.
  
  
• Return on average equity (?ROE?) for the quarter was 8.54% (annualized), compared to ROE of 9.84% for the second quarter of 2023.
  
  
• As of June 30, 2024, total assets were $168.1 billion, an increase of $9.8 billion, or 6.2%, from total assets of $158.3 billion at December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, advances (par amount) were $115.4 billion, an increase of $5.6 billion, or 5.1%, from $109.8 billion at December 31, 2023.
  
  
• As of June 30, 2024, total capital was $8.7 billion, an increase of $0.5 billion from total capital of $8.2 billion at December 31, 2023. The FHLBNY?s retained earnings increased by $0.2 billion to $2.5 billion as of June 30, 2024, of which $1.3 billion were unrestricted retained earnings and $1.1 billion were restricted retained earnings. At June 30, 2024, the FHLBNY continued to meet its regulatory capital requirements.
  
  
• The FHLBNY allocated $20.2 million from its second quarter 2024 earnings for its Affordable Housing Program.
  

The FHLBNY expects to file its Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2024 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on or before August 8, 2024.
