BCB Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BCB Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, BCB Community Bank (the “Bank”), BCB Holding Company Investment Corporation, Special Asset REO I, LLC., and Special Asset REO II, LLC. The Company’s business is conducted principally through the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information that would be included in audited consolidated financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial condition and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, or any other future period. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statement of financial condition and revenues and expenses for the periods then ended. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated the events and transactions that occurred between December 31, 2020 and the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.

Risks and Uncertainties - We are subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict.

The severity of the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic and the extent and severity of the impact on the Company's customers and any government or governmental responses thereto, including legislative or regulatory changes as well as the distribution and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. The Company's future results of operations and liquidity could be adversely impacted. As of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may materially impact the Company's financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations is uncertain.

Note 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ASU 2016-13, and related guidance, requires entities to report “expected” credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit rather than the current “incurred loss” model. These expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date are to be based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU will also require enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an entity’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements. The amendments are effective for the Company in 2023. The Company has begun evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements and results of operations. The effect of this change cannot be ascertained at this point, and will depend upon factors including asset components, asset quality and market conditions at the adoption date. The Company has created a Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) task group comprised of members of its finance, credit administration, lending, internal audit, loan operations, compliance, and information systems units. The CECL task group has become familiar with the provisions of ASU 2016-13 and is in the process of implementing the new guidance, which includes, but is not limited to: (1) identifying segments and sub-segments within the loan portfolio that have similar risk characteristics; (2) determining the appropriate methodology for each segment; (3) implementing changes that are necessary to its core operating system and interfaces to be able to capture appropriate data requirements; and (4) evaluating qualitative and economic factors to develop appropriate forecasts for integration into the model. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this guidance may have on its operating results and/or financial position, including assessing any potential impact on its capital.

Note 3 – Reclassification

Certain amounts as of December 31, 2020 and for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. These changes had no effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Note 5 – Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income less dividends on preferred stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. The diluted net income per common share is computed by adjusting the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding to include the effects of outstanding stock options, if dilutive, using the treasury stock method. Dilution is not applicable in periods of net loss. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the difference in the weighted average number of basic and diluted common shares was due solely to the effects of outstanding stock options. No adjustments to net income were necessary in calculating basic and diluted net income per share. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the weighted average number of outstanding options considered to be anti-dilutive were 8,410 and 687, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the weighted average number of outstanding options considered to be anti-dilutive were 14,723 and 18,458, respectively.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) whether the Company intends to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, management performed an assessment for possible OTTI of the Company’s residential mortgage-backed securities and corporate debt on an issue-by-issue basis, relying on information obtained from various sources, including publicly available financial data, ratings by external agencies, brokers and other sources. The extent of individual analysis applied to each security depended on the size of the Company’s investment, as well as management’s perception of the credit risk associated with each security. Based on the results of the assessment, management believes impairment of these securities, at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, to be temporary.

Note 7 – Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan loss is evaluated regularly by management and reflects consideration of all significant factors that affect the collectability of the loan portfolio. The Company’s methodology for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses consists of several key elements. These elements include a general allocated reserve for performing loans, a specific reserve for impaired loans and an unallocated portion.

The Company consistently applies the following comprehensive methodology. During the quarterly review of the allowance for loan losses, the Company considers a variety of qualitative factors that include:

Lending Policies and Procedures

Personnel responsible for the particular portfolio - relative to experience and ability of staff

Trend for past due, criticized and classified loans

Relevant economic factors

Quality of the loan review system

Value of collateral for collateral dependent loans

The effect of any concentrations of credit and the changes in the level of such concentrations

Other external factors

The methodology includes the segregation of the loan portfolio into two divisions. Loans that are performing and loans that are impaired. Loans which are performing are evaluated by loan class or loan type. The allowance for performing loans is evaluated based on historical loan loss experience with an adjustment for qualitative factors referred to above. Impaired loans are loans which are more than 90 days delinquent, troubled debt restructured, or adversely classified. These loans are individually evaluated for loan loss either by current appraisal, or net present value. Management reviews the overall estimate for feasibility and establishes the loan loss provision accordingly. Loan categories for specific business types were stressed due to rising delinquencies within those market sectors (hospitality, restaurants, office space, and commercial condos) to determine the potential for collateral shortfalls.

The loan portfolio is segmented into the following loan segments, where the risk level for each class is analyzed when determining the allowance for loan losses:

Residential one-to-four family real estate loans involve certain risks such as interest rate risk and risk of non-repayment. Adjustable-rate residential real estate loans decrease the interest rate risk to the Bank that is associated with changes in interest rates but involve other risks, primarily because as interest rates rise, the payment by the borrower rises to the extent permitted by the terms of the loan, thereby increasing the potential for default. At the same time, the marketability of the underlying properties may be adversely affected by higher interest rates. Repayment risk may be affected by a number of factors including, but not necessarily limited to, job loss, divorce, illness and personal bankruptcy of the borrower.

Commercial and multi-family real estate lending entails additional risks as compared with residential family property lending. Such loans typically involve large loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. The payment experience on such loans is typically dependent on the successful operation of the real estate project. The success of such projects is sensitive to changes in supply and demand conditions in the market for commercial real estate as well as economic conditions generally.

Construction lending is generally considered to involve a high risk due to the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers and the effects of the general economic conditions on developers and builders. Moreover, a construction loan can involve additional risks because of the inherent difficulty in estimating both a property’s value at completion of the project and the estimated cost (including interest) of the project. The nature of these loans is such that they are generally difficult to evaluate and monitor. In addition, speculative construction loans to a builder are not necessarily pre-sold and thus pose a greater potential risk to the Bank than construction loans to individuals on their personal residence.

Commercial business lending, including lines of credit, is generally considered higher risk due to the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers and the effects of general economic conditions on the business. Commercial business loans are primarily secured by inventories and other business assets. In many cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted commercial business loans will not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance.

Home equity lending entails certain risks such as interest rate risk and risk of non-repayment. The marketability of the underlying property may be adversely affected by higher interest rates, decreasing the collateral value securing the loan. Repayment risk can be affected by job loss, divorce, illness and personal bankruptcy of the borrower. Home equity line of credit lending entails securing an equity interest in the borrower’s home. In many cases, the Bank’s position in these loans is as a junior lien holder to another institution’s superior lien. This type of lending is often priced on an adjustable rate basis with the rate set at or above a predefined index. Adjustable-rate loans decrease the interest rate risk to the Bank that is associated with changes in interest rates but involve other risks, primarily because as interest rates rise, the payment by the borrower rises to the extent permitted by the terms of the loan, thereby increasing the potential for default.

Consumer loans generally have more credit risk because of the type and nature of the collateral and, in certain cases, the absence of collateral. Consumer loans generally have shorter terms and higher interest rates than other lending. In addition, consumer lending collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness, and personal bankruptcy. In many cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan will not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan.

An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimates of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating allocated and general reserves in the portfolio.

Note 7 - Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

A troubled debt restructured loan (“TDR”) is a loan that has been modified whereby the Company has agreed to make certain concessions to a borrower to meet the needs of both the borrower and the Company to maximize the ultimate recovery of a loan. A TDR occurs when a borrower is experiencing, or is expected to experience, financial difficulties and the loan is modified using a concession that would otherwise not be granted to the borrower. Pursuant to the CARES Act, a loan that was current at December 31, 2019 and modified due to the COVID-19 pandemic is not considered a TDR. The types of concessions granted generally include, but are not limited to, interest rate reductions, limitations on the accrued interest charged, term extensions, and deferment of principal. All TDRs were considered impaired and therefore were individually evaluated for impairment in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses. Prior to their classification as TDRs, certain of these loans had been collectively evaluated for impairment in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses.

The Company originated three TDR loans totaling $3,225,525 and no new TDR loans for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, TDRs, for which there was a payment default within twelve months of restructuring, totaled $134,537 for one loan and $0, respectively.

Note 7 - Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

The table below sets forth the amounts and types of non-accrual loans in the Bank’s loan portfolio at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when they become more than 90 days delinquent, or when the collection of principal and/or interest become doubtful. As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, non-accrual loans differed from the amount of total loans past due greater than 90 days due to loans which are maintained on non-accrual status for a minimum of six months until the borrower has demonstrated its ability to satisfy the terms of the restructured loan. There were $10.1 million at June 30, 2021 and $11.9 million at December 31, 2020 in nonaccrual loans that were less than ninety days past due. Nonaccrual loans do not include loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality which were recorded at their fair value at acquisition and totaled $777,000 at June 30, 2021 and $1.1 million at December 31, 2020.

Had non-accrual loans been performing in accordance with their original terms, the interest income recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 would have been approximately $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The Bank has not committed to lend additional funds to the borrowers whose loans have been placed on nonaccrual status. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were $1.7 million and $333,000, respectively, of loans which were more than ninety days past due and still accruing interest.

Note 7 - Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

Criticized and Classified Assets

Company policies provide for a classification system for problem assets. Under this classification system, problem assets are classified as “substandard,” “doubtful,” or “loss.”

When the Company classifies problem assets, the Company may establish general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to particular problem assets. A portion of general loss allowances established to cover possible losses related to assets classified as substandard or doubtful may be included in determining our regulatory capital. Specific valuation allowances for loan losses generally do not qualify as regulatory capital. The loans classified as substandard are secured either by residential real estate, commercial real estate or heavy equipment. The loans that have been classified substandard were classified as such primarily due to payment status, because updated financial information has not been timely provided, or the collateral underlying the loan is in the process of being revalued.

The Company’s internal credit risk grades are based on the definitions currently utilized by the banking regulatory agencies. The grades assigned and definitions are as follows, and loans graded excellent, above average, good and watch list (risk ratings 1-5) are treated as “pass” for grading purposes. The “criticized” risk rating (6) and the “classified” risk ratings (7-9) are detailed below:

6 – Special Mention- Loans currently performing but with potential weaknesses including adverse trends in borrower’s operations, credit quality, financial strength, or possible collateral deficiency.

7 – Substandard- Loans that are inadequately protected by current sound worth, paying capacity, and collateral support. Loans on “nonaccrual” status. The loan needs special and corrective attention.

8 – Doubtful- Weaknesses in credit quality and collateral support make full collection improbable, but pending reasonable factors remain sufficient to defer the loss status.

9 – Loss- Continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. However, this does not preclude future attempts at partial recovery.

The following table presents the loan portfolio types summarized by the aggregate pass rating and the classified ratings of special mention and substandard within the Company’s internal risk rating system as of June 30, 2021 (in thousands). As of June 30, 2021, the Company had no loans with the classified rating of doubtful or loss.

The Bank purchased $60 million of bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) in August, 2020 and an additional $8.5 million in January, 2021. BOLI involves life insurance purchased by the Bank on a chosen group of employees, and the Bank is owner and beneficiary of the policies. At June 30, 2021, the Bank had $71.0 million in BOLI. BOLI is accounted for using the cash surrender value method and is recorded at its net realizable value.

Note 10 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets consist of goodwill and core deposit intangibles in connection with the acquisition of IA Bancorp, Inc. as of April 17, 2018. The initial recording of goodwill and other intangible assets requires subjective judgments concerning estimates of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to annual tests for impairment or more often if events or circumstances indicate it may be impaired.

The Company’s core deposit intangibles are amortized on an accelerated basis using an estimated life of 10 years and in accordance with U.S. GAAP are evaluated annually for impairment. An impairment loss will be recognized if the carrying amount of the intangible asset is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. The carrying amount of the intangible asset is not considered recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset.

The Company believes that the fair values of our goodwill and other intangible assets were in excess of their carrying amounts and there was no impairment at June 30, 2021.

Amortization expense of the core deposit intangibles was $14,000 and $18,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 respectively. The unamortized balance of the core deposit intangibles and the amount of goodwill at June 30, 2021 was $205,000 and $5.2 million, respectively. The unamortized balance of the core-deposit intangibles and the amount of goodwill at June 30, 2020 was $266,000 and $5.2 million, respectively.

Note 11 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Guidance on fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e. supported with little or no market activity).

An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The only assets or liabilities that the Company measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows. (In thousands):

|  |  |  |  | (Level 1) |  | (Level 2) |  |

The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels as of the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities into or out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Note 11 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments (Continued)

The following tables present additional quantitative information as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 about assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and for which the Company has utilized adjusted Level 3 inputs to determine fair value. (Dollars in thousands):

Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
|  | Fair Value | Valuation | Unobservable |
|  | Estimate | Techniques | Input | Range
June 30, 2021: |  |  |  |  |
Impaired Loans | $ | 17,159 | Appraisal of collateral (1) | Appraisal adjustments (2) | 0%-10%
Other real estate owned | $ | 414 | Appraisal of collateral (1) | Appraisal adjustments (2) | 0%-10%

|  | Fair Value | Valuation | Unobservable |
|  | Estimate | Techniques | Input | Range
December 31, 2020: |  |  |  |  |
Impaired Loans | $ | 10,130 | Appraisal of collateral (1) | Appraisal adjustments (2) | 0%-10%
Other real estate owned | $ | 414 | Appraisal of collateral (1) | Appraisal adjustments (2) | 0%-10%

(1)Fair value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which generally include various level 3 inputs which are not objectively determinable.

(2)Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation expenses. The range of liquidation expenses and other appraisal adjustments are presented as a percent of the appraisal.

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Interest-Earning Time Deposits (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated statements of financial condition for cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values.

Securities Available for Sale

The fair value of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) are determined by matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.

Equity Securities

The fair values of available-for-sale securities are based on quoted market prices (Level 1).

Loans Held for Sale (Carried at Lower of Cost or Fair Value)

The fair value of loans held for sale is determined, when possible, using quoted secondary-market prices. If no such quoted prices exist, the fair value of a loan is determined using quoted prices for a similar loan or loans, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value.

Loans Receivable (Carried at Cost)

The fair values of loans, except for certain impaired loans, are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the date of the Statement of Financial Condition that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.

Note 11 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Impaired Loans (Generally Carried at Fair Value)

Impaired loans are those for which the Company has measured and recorded an impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral, less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The fair value at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of the loan balances of $24.1 million net of a valuation allowance of $7.0 million and $14.6 million net of a valuation of loan allowance of $4.4 million, respectively.

Other Real Estate Owned (Generally Carried at Lower of Cost or Fair Value)

Real Estate Owned is generally carried at fair value less estimated costs to sell which is determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties or based upon the expected proceeds from a pending sale. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

FHLB of New York Stock (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amount of restricted investment in bank stock approximates fair value and considers the limited marketability of such securities.

Interest Receivable and Payable (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amount of interest receivable and interest payable approximates its fair value.

Deposits (Carried at Cost)

The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Borrowings and Subordinated Debt (Carried at Cost)

Fair values are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new long-term debt with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. Prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments (Carried at Cost)

Fair values for the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments and unused lines of credit) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account, the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of these commitments was deemed immaterial and is not presented in the accompanying table.

Note 12 – Subordinated debt

On July 30, 2018, the Company issued $33.5 million of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated debentures (the “Notes”) in a private placement. The Notes have a 10-year term and bear interest at a fixed annual rate of 5.625% for the first five years of the term (the "Fixed Interest Rate Period"). From and including August 1, 2023, the interest rate will adjust to a floating rate based on the three-month LIBOR plus 2.72% until redemption or maturity (the "Floating Interest Rate Period"). The Notes are scheduled to mature on August 1, 2028. Subject to limited exceptions, the Company cannot redeem the Notes for the first five years of the term. The Company will pay interest in arrears semi-annually during the Fixed Interest Rate Period and quarterly during the Floating Interest Rate Period during the term of the Notes. The Notes constitute an unsecured and subordinated obligation of the Company and rank junior in right of payment to any senior indebtedness and obligations to general and secured creditors. The Notes qualify as Tier 2 capital for the Company for regulatory purposes, when applicable, and the portion that the Company contributes to the Bank will qualify as Tier 1 capital for the Bank. The additional capital will be used for general corporate purposes including organic growth initiatives. Subordinated debt includes associated deferred costs of $465,000 and $911,000 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The Company also has $4,124,000 of mandatory redeemable trust preferred securities. The interest rate on these floating rate junior subordinated debentures adjusts quarterly, equal to the three-month LIBOR and 2.65%.

As it is anticipated that LIBOR will be discontinued after 2021, the Company is reviewing the agreements for the above debentures to determine alternative reference rates and does not anticipate there will be a significant financial statement impact.

Note 13 – Lease Obligations

The Company leases 28 of its offices under various operating lease agreements. The leases have remaining terms of one year to 12 years. The leases contain provisions for the payment by the Company of its pro-rata share of real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and other variable expenses. The Company will allocate payments made under such leases between lease and non-lease components. Some leases contain renewal options and options to purchase the assets.

The Company has elected not to recognize a lease liability and a right of use asset for leases with a lease term of 12 or fewer months.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, or the PSLRA. Such forward-looking statements, in addition to historical information, involve risk and uncertainties, and are based on the beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our management team. Words such as “expects,” “believes,” “should,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “will,” “potential,” “could,” “intend,” “may,” “outlook,” “predict,” “project,” “would,” “estimated,” “assumes,” “likely,” and variation of such similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those that we anticipated in our forward-looking statements and future results could differ materially from historical performance.

Overview

BCB Bancorp, Inc. is a New Jersey corporation, and is the holding company parent of BCB Community Bank, or the Bank. The Company has not engaged in any significant business activity other than owning all of the outstanding common stock of BCB Community Bank. Our executive office is located at 104-110 Avenue C, Bayonne, New Jersey 07002. At June 30, 2021, we had approximately $2.895 billion in consolidated assets, $2.446 billion in deposits and $258.5 million in consolidated stockholders’ equity.

BCB Community Bank opened for business on November 1, 2000 as Bayonne Community Bank, a New Jersey chartered commercial bank. The Bank changed its name from Bayonne Community Bank to BCB Community Bank in April 2007. At June 30, 2021, the Bank operated through 29 branches in Bayonne, Carteret, Edison, Jersey City, Hoboken, Fairfield, Holmdel, Lyndhurst, Maplewood, Monroe Township, Newark, Parsippany, Plainsboro, River Edge, Rutherford, South Orange, Union, and Woodbridge, New Jersey, as well as three branches in Hicksville and Staten Island, NY, and through executive offices located at 104-110 Avenue C and an administrative office located at 591-595 Avenue C, Bayonne, New Jersey 07002. The Bank’s deposit accounts are insured by the FDIC, and the Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System.

We are a community-oriented financial institution. Our business is to offer FDIC-insured deposit products and to invest funds held in deposit accounts at the Bank, together with funds generated from operations, in loans and investment securities. We offer our customers:

loans, including commercial and multi-family real estate loans, one- to four-family mortgage loans, home equity loans, construction loans, consumer loans and commercial business loans. In recent years the primary growth in our loan portfolio has been in loans secured by commercial real estate and multi-family properties;

FDIC-insured deposit products, including savings and club accounts, interest and non-interest bearing demand accounts, money market accounts, certificates of deposit and individual retirement accounts; and

retail and commercial banking services including wire transfers, money orders, safe deposit boxes, a night depository, debit cards, online banking, mobile banking, gift cards, fraud detection (positive pay), and automated teller services.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We regularly evaluate these estimates and assumptions including those used to determine the allowance for loan losses, deferred taxes, fair value measurements, goodwill and other intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other factors and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These form the basis for making judgments on the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Although our current estimates contemplate current economic conditions and how we expect them to change in the future, for the remainder of 2021, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions may be worse than anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

See further discussion of these critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and Note 2, Basis of Presentation, to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. There has been no change in critical accounting policies since the Company’s last annual report on Form 10-K.

COVID-19 Response

With the global outbreak of COVID-19, the Company remains focused on protecting the health and well-being of its employees and the communities in which it operates while assuring the continuity of its business operations.

The Company activated its dedicated pandemic team that proactively implemented its business continuity plans and has taken a variety of measures to ensure the ongoing availability of services, while taking health and safety measures, including enhanced cleaning and hygiene protocols in all of its facilities and remote work policies, where possible. To date, as a result of these business continuity measures, the Company has not experienced significant disruptions in its operations.

Operational Initiatives

o Management meets on an as-needed basis and actively monitors guidance released by regulators, banking associations as well as state and local government.

o Most employees have returned to work, however social distancing is still encouraged for those that are unvaccinated.

o Barriers are in place in branches and back offices to provide protection.

o Branch and operational offices are cleaned and sanitized as needed and employees have access to masks, gloves and disinfectant.

o Management provides updates to employees as needed.

o The Call Center is open six days a week to assist with customer inquiries.

o Branch offices are open; however, customers have the ability to make an appointment if they choose. The Bank is encouraging customers to utilize the ATM, drive-through and electronic banking services whenever possible.

o The Bank worked with a local provider in April/May to have the vaccine administered at one of the bank’s locations.

Allowance for Loan Losses (“ALLL”)

o The Bank increased its loan loss reserves through the addition of $2.3 million in loan loss provisions for the second quarter of 2021, as compared to $3.3 million for the same period last year. The Bank considered qualitative factors, such as changes in underwriting policies, current economic conditions, delinquency statistics, the adequacy of the underlying collateral and the financial strength of borrowers in arriving at its loan loss provision. All of these factors are likely to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Loan categories for specific business types were stressed due to rising delinquencies within those market sectors (hospitality, restaurants, office space, industrial, residential 1-4 (that had previously been granted deferrals) and commercial condos) to determine the potential for collateral shortfalls. The impact of COVID-19 is likely to be felt over the next several quarters. Adjustments to the ALLL may be required as the full impact of COVID-19 on the borrowers’ capacity to make payments and the value of the underlying collateral becomes known.

Loan Deferments

o The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, was signed into law on March 27, 2020, and provided over $2.0 trillion in emergency economic relief to individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Under Section 4013 of the CARES Act, loans less than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019 will be considered current for COVID-19 modifications. A financial institution can then suspend the requirements under GAAP for loan modifications related to COVID-19 that would otherwise be categorized as a TDR, and suspend any determination of a loan modified as a result of COVID-19 as being a TDR, including the requirement to determine impairment for accounting purposes. Most of these loans are accruing interest and the Bank is considering the loans within the overall allowance for loan loss analysis.

o The Bank continues to monitor customers that previously requested loan deferments and entered into COVID-19 modifications. The loan balances for these customers at June 30, 2021 was approximately $52.3 million. The modifications generally provide a short-term, interest-only period. The Bank does not believe that these modified loans will result in losses, so long as the borrowers' representation of cash flows is realized. Borrowers that have requested modifications with less definitive cash flow projections have been denied and are being analyzed as part of the loan stress testing and Allowance for Loan Loss calculation.

Paycheck Protection Program (PPP)

o The Bank partnered with The Loan Source, Inc. and recognized $472,000 in referral fees for the second round of PPP loans in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The PPP program ended on May 31, 2021.

IT Changes

o To protect the well-being of our staff and customers, the Company has set up resources for some employees to work from home. To facilitate the move, we allocated laptop computers to staff and enhanced our ability to access the network offsite. We have taken additional steps to minimize the increased risk of security breaches (including privacy breaches and cyber-attacks), given the increased number of employees working remotely.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

o The Company was well positioned with adequate levels of cash and liquid assets as of June 30, 2021, as well as wholesale borrowing capacity of over $800 million. At June 30, 2021, the Bank’s community bank leverage ratio (tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets) (“CBLR”) was 10.03 percent and the Bank is considered “well capitalized” under its regulatory requirements. The Company will continue to monitor the effects of COVID-19 in determining future cash dividends and any requirement for additional capital each quarter.

o As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $328.3 million of cash on hand and available wholesale borrowing capacity of over $800 million.

Financial Condition

Total assets increased by $74.2 million, or 2.6 percent, to $2.895 billion at June 30, 2021, from $2.821 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase in total assets was mainly related to increases in total cash and cash equivalents and loans receivable, partly offset by a decrease in investment securities.

Total cash and cash equivalents increased by $67.0 million, or 25.7 percent, to $328.3 million at June 30, 2021 from $261.3 million at December 31, 2020. This increase was primarily due to an increase in deposits, partly offset by net repayments of borrowings.

Loans receivable, net, increased by $17.5 million, or 0.8 percent, to $2.313 billion at June 30, 2021 from $2.295 billion at December 31, 2020. Total loan increases for the first six months of 2021 included increases of $25.3 million in construction loans, $24.0 million in commercial real estate and multi-family loans, partly offset by decreases of $15.0 million in residential one-to-four family loans, $12.2 million in commercial business loans, $334,000 in home equity loans, and $363,000 in consumer loans. The allowance for loan losses increased $3.9 million to $37.5 million, or 169.0 percent of non-accruing loans and 1.59 percent of gross loans, at June 30, 2021 as compared to an allowance for loan losses of $33.6 million, or 205.2 percent of non-accruing loans and 1.44 percent of gross loans, at December 31, 2020.

Total investment securities decreased by $13.1 million, or 11.1 percent, to $104.4 million at June 30, 2021 from $117.5 million at December 31, 2020, representing repayments, calls and maturities, partly offset by purchases of $11.1 million.

26

Deposit liabilities increased by $127.8 million, or 5.5 percent, to $2.446 billion at June 30, 2021 from $2.318 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase in deposit liabilities mainly related to the recent payments to individuals under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, adopted in March of this year to provide additional relief for individuals and businesses affected by the coronavirus pandemic, and proceeds from the second round of PPP loans. Total increases for the six months ended June 30, 2021, included $89.9 million in non-interest-bearing deposit accounts, $29.3 million in money market checking accounts, $18.5 million in savings and club accounts and $5.3 million in NOW deposit accounts. The increase in deposits was partly offset by a decrease of $15.2 million in certificates of deposit, including listing service and brokered deposit accounts. The Company utilizes listing service and brokered certificates of deposit when needed as additional sources of deposit liquidity to fund loan growth. At June 30, 2021, the Company had $17.0 million in listing service deposits and no brokered certificates of deposit.

Debt obligations decreased by $62.6 million, or 27.4 percent, to $165.6 million at June 30, 2021 from $228.2 million at December 31, 2020. The weighted average interest rate of FHLB advances was 1.40 percent at June 30, 2021 and 1.66 percent at December 31, 2020. The fixed interest rate of our subordinated debt balances was 5.625 percent at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company opted to extinguish $73.0 million in FHLB advances which held a weighted average rate of 1.99%. The advances were originally set to mature in 2021 through 2024. The effect of the extinguishment of the debt reduced the weighted average cost of FHLB borrowings by approximately 21 basis points on an annualized basis. The related expense for the extinguishment of this debt is included in noninterest expense.

Stockholders’ equity increased by $9.3 million, or 3.7 percent, to $258.5 million at June 30, 2021 from $249.2 million at December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in retained earnings of $9.8 million, or 16.8 percent, to $68.1 million at June 30, 2021 from $58.3 million at December 31, 2020, related to the net effect of net income less dividends paid for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Results of Operations comparison for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Net interest income increased by $6.1 million, or 33.8 percent, to $24.1 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $18.0 million for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in net interest income resulted primarily from a $5.3 million decrease in interest expense and an increase of $798,000 in interest income.

Interest income increased by $798,000, or 2.9 percent, to $28.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $27.2 million for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in interest income mainly related to an increase in the average balance of loans receivable of $67.0 million, or 2.9 percent, to $2.344 billion for the second quarter of 2021 from $2.277 billion for the second quarter of 2020. Interest income on loans also included $201,000 of amortization of purchase credit fair value adjustments related to a prior acquisition for the three months ended June 30, 2021, which added approximately three basis points to the average yield on interest earning assets. The increase in interest income on loans was partly offset by a $141,000 decrease in interest income on FHLB Stock and interest earning assets resulting from a decrease in the average balance of total interest-earning deposits of $228.0 million, or 41.4 percent, to $323.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $550.9 million for the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in the average balance of interest-earning deposits mainly relates to a decrease in the Company’s level of average cash balances for the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the second quarter of 2020, relating to decreases in the average balances of deposits and FHLB advances.

Interest expense decreased by $5.3 million, or 57.2 percent, to $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $9.2 million for the second quarter of 2020. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities of 81 basis points to 0.74 percent for the second quarter of 2021 from 1.55 percent for the second quarter of 2020, as well as a decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $250.0 million, or 10.5 percent, to $2.129 billion for the second quarter of 2021 from $2.379 billion for the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in the average cost of funds primarily resulted from the declining interest rate environment and an increased focus on managing funding costs. The decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities primarily resulted the Company’s strategy of continued deleveraging.

Net interest margin was 3.47 percent for the second quarter of 2021, compared to 2.45 percent for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in the net interest margin compared to the prior-year period was the result of the volatile financial markets in 2020 attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the current low interest rate environment. Management has been proactive in managing the Company’s cost of funds and has significantly decreased the average cost of total interest-bearing liabilities, while improving the average yield on interest-earning assets for the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020. Despite the ongoing pandemic, the Company has been able to increase its average balance of loans receivable for the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in cost of funds and the increase in the yield on interest-earning assets highlight management’s efforts to maintain a strong net interest margin.

Non-interest income increased by $1.7 million, or 154.5 percent, to $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in total noninterest income was mainly related to BOLI income of $729,000 in the current quarter, an increase in fees and service charges of $492,000, a gain on the sale of premises of $371,000 in the current quarter and an increase in the gain on the sales of loans of $161,000. The BOLI income relates to an initial purchase of $60.0 million of BOLI product in the third quarter of 2020, and an additional purchase of $8.5 million in the first quarter of 2021. The higher fees and service charges related primarily to $144,000 of referral fees for PPP loans. The gains on loan sales are based on market conditions. The gain on the sale of premises results from the sale of a branch office.

Non-interest expense increased by $1.2 million, or 10.1 percent, to $13.2 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $12.0 million for the second quarter of 2020. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $830,000, or 14.6 percent, to $6.5 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $5.7 million for the second quarter of 2020, primarily related to $1.1 million of costs deferred for PPP loans in the prior-year period and normal compensation increases, partly offset by fewer full-time equivalent employees. The PPP costs deferred in the prior-year period represent salaries and benefit costs associated with direct PPP loan origination costs. The number of full-time equivalent employees for the second quarter of 2021 was 288, as compared with 340 for the same period in 2020. Occupancy and equipment expense decreased by $242,000, or 8.3 percent, to $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $2.9 million for the second quarter of 2020, largely related to the termination of building

sanitization costs associated with the COVID-19 pandemic in the current quarter and the closure of two of the Company’s branch offices in the fourth quarter of 2020. The Company recognized an expense of $194,000 for a loss on extinguishment of debt, related to the prepayment of higher-cost FHLB borrowings in the second quarter of 2021. Other noninterest expense increased by $223,000, or 16.5 percent, to $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2020. Other noninterest expense consisted of loan expense, business development, office supplies, correspondent bank fees, telephone and communication and miscellaneous fees and expenses. The increase in other noninterest expense in the current period was primarily related to curtailed business development and loan-related expenses in the prior-year period, largely attributable to the pandemic condition.

The income tax provision increased by $2.3 million, or 201.7 percent, to $3.4 million for the second quarter of 2021 from $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in the income tax provision was a result of higher taxable income for the second quarter of 2021 as compared with that same period for 2020. The consolidated effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2021 was 29.6 percent compared to 29.1 percent for the second quarter of 2020. The higher rate in the current period related primarily to a one percent increase in the New Jersey surtax rate.

Results of Operations comparison for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Net interest income increased by $10.9 million, or 29.5 percent, to $47.6 million for the first six months of 2021 from $36.7 million for the first six months of 2020. The increase in net interest income resulted primarily from a $11.4 million decrease in interest expense, partly offset by a decrease of $546,000 in interest income.

Interest income decreased by $546,000, or 1.0 percent, to $56.1 million for the first six months of 2021 from $56.6 million for the first six months of 2020. The decrease in interest income mainly related to a $2.0 million reduction in interest income from FHLB stock and other interest earning assets, relating to lower average cash balances and lower yields, and a decrease in the average balance of total interest-earning deposits of $271.9 million, or 48.1 percent, to $293.8 million for the first six months of 2021 from $565.8 million for the first six months of 2020. The decrease in the average balance of interest-earning deposits mainly relates to a decrease in the Company’s level of average cash balances for the first six months of 2021 as compared to the first six months of 2020, relating to decreases in the average balances of deposits and FHLB advances. This decrease in interest income was partly offset by an increase in the average balance of loans receivable of $104.4 million, or 4.7 percent, to $2.335 billion for the first six months of 2021 from $2.231 billion for the first six months of 2020. Interest income on loans also included $412,000 of amortization of purchase credit fair value adjustments related to the acquisition of IAB for the six months ended June 30, 2021, which added approximately two basis points to the average yield on interest earning assets.

Interest expense decreased by $11.4 million, or 57.4 percent, to $8.5 million for the first six months of 2021 from $19.9 million for the first six months of 2020. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities of 86 basis points to 0.80 percent for the first six months of 2021 from 1.66 percent for the first six months of 2020, as well as a decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $262.1 million, or 11.0 percent, to $2.125 billion for the first six months of 2021 from $2.387 billion for the first six months of 2020. The decrease in the average cost of funds primarily resulted from the declining interest rate environment and an increased focus on managing funding costs. The decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities primarily resulted the Company’s strategy of continued deleveraging.

Our net interest margin was 3.48 percent for the first six months of 2021, compared to 2.54 percent for the first six months of 2020. The increase in the net interest margin compared to the prior-year period was the result of the volatile financial markets in 2020 attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the current low interest rate environment. Management has been proactive in managing the Company’s cost of funds and has significantly decreased the average cost of total interest-bearing liabilities, while improving the average yield on interest-earning assets for the first six months of 2021 compared to the first six months of 2020. Despite the ongoing pandemic, the Company has been able to increase its average balance of loans receivable for the first six months of 2021 as compared to the first six months of 2020.

Total non-interest income increased by $3.0 million, or 166.3 percent, to $4.8 million for the first six months of 2021 from $1.8 million for the first six months of 2020. The increase in total non-interest income was mainly related to $1.4 million in BOLI income, an increase of $877,000 in fees and service charges, an increase in the gain on sale of loans of $374,000, a gain on the sale of premises of $371,000 and an increase of $301,000 in unrealized gains on equity securities, partly offset by a decrease in other non-interest income of $270,000. The BOLI income relates to an initial purchase of $60.0 million of BOLI product in the third quarter of 2020, and an additional purchase of $8.5 million in the first quarter of 2021. The higher fees and service charges related primarily to $472,000 of referral fees for PPP loans. The gains on loan sales are based on market conditions. The decrease in other non-interest income related primarily to the reversal of certain liabilities previously recorded for acquired loans that paid-off during the first six months of 2020. The gain on the sale of premises results from the sale of a branch office.

Total non-interest expense increased by $424,000, or 1.6 percent, to $26.7 million for the first six months of 2021 from $26.3 million for the first six months of 2020. Salaries and employee benefits expense was unchanged at $13.1 million for the first six months of 2021 and 2020, despite having $1.1 million of costs deferred for PPP loans in the prior year period. The PPP costs deferred in the prior-year period represent salaries and benefit costs associated with direct PPP loan origination costs. The number of full-time equivalent employees for the six months of 2021 was 300, as compared with 356 for the same period in 2020. The Company recognized an expense of $734,000 for a loss on extinguishment of debt, related to the prepayment of higher-cost FHLB borrowings in the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The income tax provision increased by $4.1 million, or 188.1 percent, to $6.3 million for the first six months of 2021 from $2.2 million for the first six months of 2020. The increase in the income tax provision was a result of higher taxable income for the first six months of 2021 as compared to that same period for 2020. The consolidated effective tax rate for the first six months of 2021 was 29.4 percent compared to 29.5 percent for the same period of 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

The overall objective of our liquidity management practices is to ensure the availability of sufficient funds to meet financial commitments and to take advantage of lending and investment opportunities. The Company manages liquidity in order to meet deposit withdrawals on demand or at contractual maturity, to repay borrowings and other obligations as they mature, and to fund loan and investment portfolio opportunities as they arise.

The Company’s primary sources of funds to satisfy its objectives are net growth in deposits (primarily retail), principal and interest payments on loans and investment securities, proceeds from the sale of originated loans and FHLB and other borrowings. The scheduled amortization of loans is a predictable source of funds. Deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Company has other sources of liquidity if a need for additional funds arises, including unsecured overnight lines of credit and other collateralized borrowings from the FHLB and other correspondent banks.

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no overnight borrowings outstanding with the FHLB. The Company utilizes overnight borrowings from time to time to fund short-term liquidity needs. The Company had total FHLB borrowings of $133.3 million at June 30, 2021 and $191.2 million at December 31, 2020. The average rate of FHLB advances was 1.38 percent at June 30, 2021 and 1.66 percent at December 31, 2020. The subordinated debentures have a ten-year term and bear interest at a fixed annual rate of 5.625% for the first five years of the term. From and including August 1, 2023, the interest rate will adjust to a floating rate based on the LIBOR plus 2.72% until redemption or maturity. The Notes are scheduled to mature on August 1, 2028.

As it is anticipated that LIBOR will be discontinued after 2021, the Company is reviewing the agreements for the above debentures to determine alternative reference rates and does not anticipate there will be a significant financial statement impact.

The Company had the ability at June 30, 2021 to obtain additional funding from the FHLB of up to $245.7 million, utilizing unencumbered loan collateral. The Company expects to have sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments in the normal course of business through typical sources of liquidity. Time deposits scheduled to mature in one year or less totaled $586.0 million at June 30, 2021. Based upon historical experience, management estimates that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Company.

The Company was well positioned with adequate levels of cash and liquid assets as of June 30, 2021, as well as wholesale borrowing capacity of over $800 million, to cover the decrease in cash flow resulting from COVID-19 loan deferments.

Capital Resources

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet the minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings and other factors.

On September 17, 2019, the FDIC passed a final rule providing qualifying community banking organizations the ability to opt-in to a new community bank leverage ratio (tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets) (“CBLR”) framework, with a minimum requirement of 9% for institutions under $10 billion in assets. Such institutions meeting that requirement may elect to utilize the CBLR in lieu of the general applicable risk-based capital requirements under Basel III. Such institutions that meet the CBLR and certain other qualifying criteria will automatically be deemed to be well-capitalized. The Bank decided to opt-in to the new CBLR, effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Pursuant to the CARES Act, the federal banking regulators in April 2020 issued interim final rules to set the CBLR at 8.0% beginning in the second quarter of 2020 through the end of 2020. Beginning in 2021, the CBLR increased to 8.5% for the calendar year. Community banks will have until January 1, 2022 before the CBLR requirement will return to 9%.

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, BCB Community Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements to which it was subject. The following table sets forth the regulatory capital ratios for BCB Community Bank as well as regulatory capital requirements for the periods presented.

The Company will continue to monitor the effects of COVID-19 in determining future cash dividends and any requirement for additional capital each quarter. The Company had $1.3 million of stock repurchases for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
