Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements are comprised of the accounts of Northfield Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Northfield Investments, Inc. and Northfield Bank (the Bank) and the Bank’s wholly-owned significant subsidiaries, NSB Services Corp. and NSB Realty Trust. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and the consolidated results of operations for the unaudited periods presented have been included.  The results of operations and other data presented for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”); management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated.  Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to change are: the allowance for loan losses; the evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets, impairment on investment securities, fair value measurements of assets and liabilities, and income taxes.  Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are deemed necessary. While management uses its best judgment, actual amounts or results could differ significantly from those estimates. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these material estimates.

 

Certain information and note disclosures usually included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the preparation of interim financial statements.  The consolidated financial statements presented should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, of Northfield Bancorp, Inc. as filed with the SEC.

 

On January 24, 2013, Northfield Bancorp, Inc. completed its conversion from the mutual holding company to the stock holding company form of organization. A total of 35,558,927 shares of common stock were sold in the subscription and community offerings at a price of $10.00 per share, including 1,422,357 shares of common stock purchased by the Northfield Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan. As part of the conversion, each existing share of Northfield Bancorp, Inc., a Federal Corporation, (“Northfield-Federal”) common stock held by public shareholders was converted into the right to receive 1.4029 shares of Northfield Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, (“Northfield-Delaware”) common stock. The exchange ratio ensured that, after the conversion and offering, the public shareholders of Northfield-Federal maintained approximately the same ownership interest in Northfield-Delaware as they owned previously. 58,199,819 shares of Northfield-Delaware common stock were outstanding after the completion of the offering and the exchange. The Company incurred costs of approximately $11.5 million related to the conversion. 

 

Share amounts at December 31, 2012, have been restated to reflect the conversion at a rate of 1.4029-to-one, unless noted otherwise.
