Looking Forward

Lever # 1 - Loan Growth Total YTD loans grew $1.5 billion or 4% annualized, and we expect mid-single digit loan growth in 2018. Lever # 2 - Significant Reinvestment Opportunities We have $1.7 billion of cash earning 1.99%. $13.9 billion of loans with average coupon of 3.37% contractually maturing or reaching their option re-pricing date over the next 3 years. Over the next 18 months we could potentially see $8.4-$12.0 billion of loans refinancing before their contractual maturity dates, depending on CPR speeds. Current interest rates on our traditional 5 year multi-family product are about 4.50%, compared to a current coupon of 3.48% Lever # 3 - Further Improvements In Operating Expenses Annual cost savings in 2018 are expected to be > $100 million. In 2019 we anticipate additional cost save opportunities bringing our overall operating expense base to the low $500 million level. Focusing on what we can control – Three levers for future earnings growth Growth Levers Continued strong originations Reinvestment of cash Lower operating expenses Results Mid-single digit loan growth Higher loan yields Lower efficiency ratio Higher operating leverage

CAGR 1993-2009: 25.7% CAGR 2009-9/30/18: 2.0% Dodd-Frank Enacted Lever # 1 – Back in growth mode Asset growth prior to and since Dodd-Frank was enacted

Lever # 2 - Loan Re-pricing Opportunities → Over the next 3 years, approximately $13.9 billion of MF and CRE loans with an average coupon of 3.37%, are reaching their contractual maturity date or their option re-pricing date. If the borrower does not refinance or pay us off, before the contractual maturity or option re-pricing date, they will have 2 options: Convert to variable rate loan at Prime plus 275-300 bps Convert to fixed rate loan indexed to 5 year FHLB plus 275-300 bps, and a 1.00% fee to exercise this option → Separately, over the next 18 months, based on current CPR speeds $8.4 billion in MF/CRE loans could refinance before their contractual maturity dates; if CPR speeds double this amount could increase to approximately $12.0 billion.

Lever # 2 - Portfolio coupons may have bottomed Coupon Rate at 9/30/2018 Multi Family: 3.48% CRE: 3.99%

NYCB Efficiency Ratio Prior to and Since Dodd-Frank Our efficiency ratio has increased significantly since the enactment of Dodd-Frank. We expect substantial cost savings in the remainder of 2018 and into 2019 on top of regulatory-related cost savings. Lever # 3 – Lower operating expenses We have already expended significant costs to prepare for SIFI; with the threshold being raised to $250 billion in assets and the elimination of many regulatory requirements, the risk of higher SIFI-related expenses is eliminated.

→ $ 300 million Share Repurchase Program (approximately 5% of Total Shares Outstanding) Flexibility during uncertain equity markets conditions Accretive to EPS Improves ROE Accelerates internal capital generation No impact on total capital ratios No impact on CRE concentration levels → Subordinated Debt Issuance Diversifies capital structure similar to peers Attractive tax-adjusted interest rate → Merger of our two subsidiary banks into one Additional organizational & capital flexibility Provides operational efficiencies Cost save opportunities Recent Developments

→ The Economic Growth Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (S.2155) was signed into law in late May. A key element of the new law is increasing the asset threshold to be considered a SIFI to $250 billion from $50 billion. → What regulatory relief means for us: DFAST no longer required Immediate exemption from LCR requirements Not subject to resolution planning (“living wills”) Exempt from CCAR requirements Results: Greater flexibility with our corporate structure; Further reduces our operating expenses due to lower regulatory compliance costs. We are a main beneficiary of the recently enacted regulatory relief legislation

Our Business Model Asset Quality

. → Of the loans in our portfolio that are collateralized by multi-family buildings in the five boroughs of New York City, 88% are collateralized by buildings with rent-regulated units featuring below-market rents. → Rent-regulated buildings are more likely to retain their tenants – and, therefore, their revenue stream – in downward credit cycles. → Average rent growth and net operating income (“NOI”) growth have been positive since 1990, regardless of the interest rate and economic environment. Asset Quality − Our focus on the rent regulated niche has distinguished our performance from others

Asset Quality – Best in Class Underwriting Conservative Underwriting Conservative loan-to-value ratios Conservative debt service coverage ratios: 120% for multi-family loans and 130% for CRE loans Multi-family and CRE loans are based on the lower of economic or market value. Active Board Involvement The Mortgage Committee and the Credit Committee approve all mortgage loans >$50 million and all “other C&I” loans >$5 million; the Credit Committee also approves all specialty finance loans >$15 million. A member of the Mortgage or Credit Committee participates in inspections on multi-family loans in excess of $7.5 million, and CRE and ADC loans in excess of $4.0 million. All loans of $20 million or more originated by the Community Bank and all loans of $10 million or more originated by the Commercial Bank are reported to the Board. Multiple Appraisals All properties are appraised by independent appraisers. All independent appraisals are reviewed by in-house appraisal officers. A second independent appraisal review is performed on loans that are large and complex.

Non-Performing Loans(a)(b) / Total Loans(a) Non-performing loans and total loans exclude covered loans and non-covered purchased credit-impaired (“PCI”) loans. Non-performing loans are defined as non-accrual loans and loans 90 days or more past due but still accruing interest. Our non-performing loans at 12/31/16 ,12/31/17, and 9/30/18 exclude taxi medallion-related loans. SNL B&T data is for 2Q 2018. 3Q 2018 data was not available as of the date of this presentation.

… and very few of our non-performing loans have resulted in actual losses. Net Charge-Offs / Average Loans Cumulative Total NYCB: 101 bp SNL U.S. Bank and Thrift Index (c) : 2,350 bp The calculation of our net charge-offs to average loans for 2017 excludes charge-offs of $59.6 million on taxi medallion-related loans.

Our Business Model Efficiency

Historical Drivers of Our Efficiency Going forward, our efficiency ratio should continue to benefit from the expected cost savings in 2018 (> $100 million) plus additional cost reductions in 2019. Multi-family and CRE lending are both broker-driven, with the borrower paying fees to the mortgage brokerage firm. Products and services are typically developed by third-party providers; their sales are a complementary source of revenues. Efficiency Ratio Peer Group (a) NYCB We remain committed to reducing our efficiency ratio. Peer Group data is for 2Q 2018. 3Q 2018 data was not available as of the date of this presentation.

Appendix

While average stockholders’ equity, average assets, return on average assets, and return on average stockholders’ equity are financial measures that are recorded in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), average tangible stockholders’ equity, average tangible assets, return on average tangible assets, and return on average tangible stockholders’ equity are not. Nevertheless, it is management’s belief that these non-GAAP measures should be disclosed in our SEC filings, earnings releases, and other investor communications, for the following reasons: Average tangible stockholders’ equity is an important indication of the Company’s ability to grow organically and through business combinations, as well as our ability to pay dividends and to engage in various capital management strategies. Returns on average tangible assets and average tangible stockholders’ equity are among the profitability measures considered by current and prospective investors, both independent of, and in comparison with, our peers. We calculate average tangible stockholders’ equity by subtracting from average stockholders’ equity the sum of our average goodwill and core deposit intangibles (“CDI”), and calculate average tangible assets by subtracting the same sum from our average assets. Average tangible stockholders’ equity, average tangible assets, and the related non-GAAP profitability measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for average stockholders’ equity, average assets, or any other profitability or capital measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate these non-GAAP measures may differ from that of other companies reporting non-GAAP measures with similar names. The following table presents reconciliations of our average common stockholders’ equity and average tangible common stockholders’ equity, our average assets and average tangible assets, and the related GAAP and non-GAAP profitability measures at or for the three months ended September 30, 2018: To calculate our returns on average assets and average common stockholders’ equity for a period, we divide the net income available to common shareholders generated during that period by the average assets and the average common stockholders’ equity recorded during that time. To calculate our returns on average tangible assets and average tangible common stockholders’ equity for a period, we adjust the net income available to common shareholders generated during that period by adding back the amortization of CDI, net of tax, and then divide that adjusted net income by the average tangible assets and the average tangible common stockholders’ equity recorded during that time. Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures (dollars in thousands) For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018 Average common stockholders’ equity $ 6,301,525 Less: Average goodwill and core deposit intangibles (2,436,131) Average tangible common stockholders’ equity $ 3,865,394 Average assets $50,608,283 Less: Average goodwill and core deposit intangibles (2,436,131) Average tangible assets $48,172,152 Net income available to common shareholders (1) $98,565 Add back: Amortization of core deposit intangibles, net of tax -- Adjusted net income (2) $98,565 GAAP: Return on average assets 0.84% Return on average common stockholders’ equity 6.26 Non-GAAP: Return on average tangible assets 0.89 Return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity 10.20
