Q4 2023 earnings report from New York Community Bank was weaker-than-expected almost all across the board. Company reported lower revenue than expected as well as unexpected adjusted loss per share. A big source of concern is a massive reserve build with provisions for credit losses coming in at $552 million, over $500 million more than market expected. A point to note is that NYCB loan-to-deposit ratio exceeds 100%, meaning that the company does not have much liquidity reserve to cope with unexpected contingencies.
Bank said that it has moved to a stricter regulatory category following acquisition of collapsed Signature Bank's deposit, and it was one of the reasons for a boost to provision for loan losses. Weaker credit outlook, weighting on earnings, as well as higher reserve build led to an around-70% dividend cut, with quarterly payout shrinking from $0.17 per share to $0.05 per share. Nevertheless, bank's authorities believe that those actions will better align the bank with peers and provide a solid foundation for the future.
