GENERAL
Current report
Overview
Current report
As part of our commitment to delivering long-term shareholder value and sustained value creation, we are executing a strategic transformation plan designed to evolve into a fully diversified bank with a strong balance sheet, a robust capital position and consistent earnings power.
Current report
Our plan is guided by six strategic pillars: driving transformation and financial resilience, growing our core operations, executing a disciplined commercial banking and lending strategy, enhancing operational efficiency, developing talent and leadership and aligning regulatory and risk management.
Current report
To support these pillars, we have established strategic priorities focused on transforming the Company into a top-tier relationship-driven regional bank, creating a customer-centric culture that prioritizes valuable relationships, and building an effective risk management mindset that supports safe and sound operations.
Current report
Since initiating this plan in 2024, we have made measurable progress, including key leadership additions, reduction of non-core assets, and improved funding mix. We believe that successful execution of this plan will enhance our financial resilience, drive sustainable earnings and position us to deliver greater long-term value to shareholders.
Current report
Merger of Flagstar Financial, Inc. and Flagstar Bank N.A.
Current report
On July 24, 2025, the Company, as part of an internal reorganization to streamline its corporate structure, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Plan of Merger”) with its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Flagstar Bank, N.A., a nationally chartered banking association. Under the terms of the Plan of Merger, the Company will be merged with and into the Bank (the “Merger”), with the Bank continuing as the surviving entity (the “Surviving Entity”). The Merger is expected to be completed, subject to shareholder and OCC approval, before the end of 2025.
Current report
At the effective time of the Merger, the outstanding shares of the Company’s common and Series A preferred stock will be cancelled and cease to exist, and the outstanding shares of the Company’s common and Series A preferred stock will automatically be converted into an equivalent number of shares of the Surviving Entity’s common and Series A preferred stock. The Company’s Series B and Series D preferred stock shall also be converted into common stock of the Bank, except that such conversion shall instead be into non-voting equity securities that are substantially identical to the Series B and Series D preferred stock to the extent that ownership of the additional common stock would otherwise be prohibited by law or require approval by a government entity. As a result, subject to the foregoing limitations, the shares of capital stock of the Surviving Entity will be owned directly by the Company’s shareholders in the same proportion as their ownership of the Company’s capital stock immediately prior to the Merger. Further, each warrant to purchase either Series D preferred stock or common stock of the Company will be converted automatically into a warrant to purchase common stock of the Surviving Entity.
Current report
Immediately following the Merger, the Surviving Entity will have substantially the same outstanding capital stock with substantially the same rights and privileges as the outstanding capital stock of the Company immediately prior to the Merger. Immediately after the Merger, the Surviving Entity will have substantially the same consolidated assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity as the Company. The Surviving Entity will assume the Company’s debt obligations, equity incentive plans, equity compensation plans, and other compensation plans. As an initial step of closing the Merger, the Company will be an interim federal savings association, which will immediately merge with the Bank, with the Bank then continuing as the Surviving Entity.
Current report
Following the Merger, we expect that the Surviving Entity will be a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the same ticker symbol currently used by the Company, “FLG.” The Surviving Entity’s common stock will be registered with the Surviving Entity’s primary banking regulator, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Current report
Total non-interest expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $19 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in general and administrative expenses as we continue to focus on operating expense management.
Current report
(2)Excludes ADC loans.
Current report
Our multi-family loan portfolio decreased $2.2 billion at June 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, primarily due to $1.9 billion of par payoffs since December 31, 2024, with greater than 50 percent of the payoffs from substandard loans. The reduction in our multi-family loan portfolio is consistent with our strategic decision to continue to diversify our loan portfolio by reducing our exposure to multi-family loans.
Current report
One-to-four family loans increased $244 million at June 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, primarily driven by new originations.

Previous report
Our MF loan portfolio decreased $656 million at March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, primarily due to our strategic decision to continue to diversify our loan portfolio by reducing our exposure to MF loans.
Previous report
We classify loans as held for sale when we originate or purchase loans that we intend to sell and when we change our intent with regard to loans originated as held for investment. Our one-to-four family mortgage loans held for sale are carried at fair value. Other loans held for sale are carried at the lower of amortized cost or market. These loans are typically recorded based on recent appraisals less estimated disposal costs. We estimate the fair value of mortgage loans based on quoted market prices for securities backed by similar types of loans, where available, or by discounting estimated cash flows using observable inputs inclusive of interest rates, prepayment speeds and loss assumptions for similar collateral.
Previous report
Asset quality information excludes loans with repurchased government guarantees that are insured by U.S. government agencies.
Previous report
Approximately 41 percent of our non-accrual loans are current on their contractual payment terms. In determining whether to place a loan on non-accrual we have considered whether a borrower will be able to service its debt under terms expected within the next 18 months based on current collateral and net operating income. Where net operating income is below the projected debt service and the collateral value is below the loan amount, we place loans on non-accrual.
Previous report
The ACL on loans and leases to total loans held for investment ratio decreased to 1.75 percent at March 31, 2025, compared to 1.76 percent at December 31, 2024. Excluding loans with government guarantees, the allowance for credit losses was 1.76 percent at March 31, 2025, compared to 1.77 percent at December 31, 2024.
Previous report
Our ACL is determined based on quantitative modeling that incorporates various economic forecast scenarios. The key inputs to our quantitative allowance for credit losses models include borrowers' projected debt service based on the most recent financial information available and underlying collateral property values. Property values are particularly meaningful for our multi-family and commercial real estate portfolios. Our models consider the entire life of the loan, including both the interest only period of the loan, if applicable, and the amortization period, to assess the probability of default and the loss given default. For our multi-family portfolio, we obtain and utilize current and projected geography-specific market information in our forecasts. In estimating the qualitative component of our allowance for credit losses, we have adjusted key inputs used by the model on an average basis for certain loans, most notably net operating income and property values to reflect weaknesses in the underlying data, including the recency of appraisal values, and the lack of significant loss history in available data, particularly for rent-regulated multi-family loans. We have also considered our recent appraisal experience and the valuation risk present in loans with outstanding appraisals in estimating the qualitative component of our allowance for credit losses.
Previous report
The following table presents information on the Company's net charge-offs:
Previous report
As of March 31, 2025, the net unrealized loss on securities available for sale, net of tax, was $560 million, compared to $653 million at December 31, 2024, a decrease of $93 million, reflecting changes in market interest rates.
Previous report
Bank-Owned Life Insurance (BOLI)
Previous report
At March 31, 2025, BOLI increased $10 million due to an increase in the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. Bank-owned life insurance is recorded at the total cash surrender value of the policies.
Previous report
A loan generally is classified as a non-accrual loan when it is 90 days or more past due or when it is deemed to be impaired because there is significant uncertainty about whether we will be able to collect all principal and interest amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When a loan is in non-accrual, we cease recording interest income on the loan, previously accrued and uncollected interest is reversed against interest income, and any subsequent interest collected is recorded as a reduction in the loan carrying amount. A loan is returned to accrual status only when the loan is current (minimum of six months of payment performance), and we have reasonable assurance that all contractual principal and interest related to the loan will be fully collectible. At March 31, 2025, $1.3 billion, or approximately 41 percent, of non-accrual loans were current based on their existing payment terms.

Previous wording
Net interest income is our primary source of income. The amount of our net interest income is a function of the amount of interest-earning assets we hold, the manner in which we fund these assets, including interest-bearing liabilities, and the spread between the interest rates we earn on assets and the interest rates we pay on liabilities. These factors are influenced by both the pricing and mix of our interest-earning assets and our interest-bearing liabilities which, in turn, are impacted by various external factors, including the local economy, competition for loans and deposits, the monetary policy of the Federal Open Market Committee, and prevailing interest rates.
Current wording
NII is our primary source of income. The amount of our NII is a function of the amount of interest-earning assets we hold, the manner in which we fund these assets, including interest-bearing liabilities, and the spread between the interest rates we earn on assets and the interest rates we pay on liabilities. These factors are influenced by both the pricing and mix of our interest-earning assets and our interest-bearing liabilities which, in turn, are impacted by various external factors, including the local economy, competition for loans and deposits, the monetary policy of the FOMC, and prevailing interest rates.
Previous wording
Our interest-bearing liabilities are comprised of customer deposits and funds we borrow. The average term of our fixed rate deposits is less than twelve months, therefore the cost of our deposits and most of our borrowed funds is largely based on short-term interest rates, the level of which is partially impacted by the actions of the Federal Open Market Committee. The yields on our held for-investment loans and investment securities are generally more sensitive to intermediate-term interest rates. However, a sizable portion of our held for investment loans have fixed rates and generally reset to the then current intermediate-term interest rates when they reach repricing dates.

Current wording
The following table summarizes the change in NII attributable to changes in rate and volume:
Previous wording
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, Net Interest Margin (“NIM”) stabilized compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. Additionally, net interest income decreased $51 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily as a result of lower average mortgage and other loans due to the strategic reduction of our Multi-Family (“MF”), Commercial Real Estate (“CRE”) and non-core Commercial and Industrial ("C&I") loans that began in early 2024, lower overall market interest rates, and lower average interest earning cash and cash equivalents primarily due to the pay down of wholesale borrowings. The decrease in net interest income was partially offset by the payoff of brokered certificates of deposit reflecting our strategy to reduce higher cost funding, a reduction in custodial deposits associated with the sale of our Mortgage Operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024, and lower overall market interest rates.
Current wording
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, NIM increased 7 basis points and NII increased $9 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. This was primarily as a result of the payoff of brokered certificates of deposit reflecting our actions to reduce higher cost funding, the pay down of wholesale borrowings and improved multi-family loan yield resets, partially offset by lower average total loans and leases due to the strategic reduction in our multi-family, CRE and non-core C&I loans that began in early 2024.
Previous wording
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, NIM decreased by 54 basis points compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. Additionally, net interest income decreased $214 million compared to the prior year, primarily as a result of lower average mortgage and other loans due to the sale of our Mortgage Operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024, and our warehouse lending portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2024, the strategic reduction in MF, CRE, and C&I loans and lower interest rates. The decrease was partially offset by lower average borrowed funds driven by the pay down of wholesale borrowings during 2024.
Current wording
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, NIM decreased by 36 basis points and NII decreased $352 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This was primarily as a result of lower average total loans and leases due to the strategic reduction in multi-family, CRE, and C&I loans, the sale of our mortgage third party origination business and mortgage servicing business ("Mortgage Operations") during the three months ended December 31, 2024, the sale of our warehouse lending portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2024, and lower interest rates. The decrease was partially offset by lower average borrowed funds driven by the pay down of wholesale borrowings during 2024 and the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Previous wording
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the provision for credit losses decreased $236 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease is primarily due to lower net charge-offs, our continued focus on credit reviews and the receipt of recent appraisals. Additionally, our ACL balance decreased since March 31, 2024, as result of the on-going strategic reduction of our MF, CRE and non-core C&I portfolios. The reduction in our ACL balance was partially offset by the negatively trending macro-economic environment.
Current wording
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the provision for credit losses decreased $15 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. This decrease is primarily due to the strategic reduction in our multi-family, CRE and non-core C&I loan portfolio, a reduction in our criticized assets, our continued focus on credit reviews and the receipt of recent appraisals. Additionally, our ACL balance decreased since March 31, 2025 as a result of the on-going strategic reduction in our multi-family, CRE and non-core C&I portfolios. The reduction in our ACL balance was partially offset by negatively trending macro-economic conditions.
Previous wording
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the provision for credit losses decreased $66 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. This decrease is primarily due to lower net charge-offs, our continued focus on credit reviews and the receipt of recent appraisals. Additionally, our Allowance for Credit Losses ("ACL") balance decreased since December 31, 2024, as result of the on-going strategic reduction of our MF, CRE and non-core C&I portfolios. The reduction in our ACL balance was partially offset by the negatively trending macro-economic environment.
Current wording
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the provision for credit losses decreased $562 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease is primarily due to improving credit trends as property values and borrower financials normalize which has resulted in a stabilization in our ACL and lower net charge-offs in our multi-family and CRE portfolios. Additionally, our ACL balance decreased since June 30, 2024 as a result of the on-going strategic reduction in our multi-family, CRE and non-core C&I portfolios. The reduction in our ACL balance was partially offset by negatively trending macro-economic conditions.
Previous wording
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, non-interest income decreased by $84 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. The decline in non-interest income was primarily due to the non-recurrence of an $89 million gain and lower fee income as a result of the sale of our Mortgage Operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024, partially offset by net gains on MF and CRE loan sales.
Current wording
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, non-interest income decreased by $3 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decline in non-interest income was a result of certain insignificant items.
Previous wording
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, non-interest income increased $71 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to the non-recurrence of the $121 million reduction in the Signature Transaction bargain purchase gain, partially offset by lower mortgage servicing rights fees, lower fee income, and lower net loan administration income as a result of the sale of our Mortgage Operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Current wording
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, non-interest income increased $34 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to the non-recurrence of the $121 million reduction in the Signature Transaction bargain purchase gain, partially offset by lower MSRs fees, fee income, net gain on loan sales and securitizations and net loan administration income as a result of the sale of our Mortgage Operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Previous wording
Total non-interest expenses decreased $186 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily due to the non-recurrence of the asset impairment charges of $77 million, lower compensation and benefits costs stemming from the actions taken to optimize costs which continued in the three months ended March 31, 2025, lower FDIC insurance costs as a result of a lower asset base and lower brokered deposits due to the sale of our Mortgage Operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024, and the continued execution of our cost savings initiatives.
Current wording
Total non-interest expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $359 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to lower compensation and benefits costs stemming from the actions taken to optimize costs which continued in the six months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily due to the sale of our Mortgage Operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024 and as we continue to focus on operating expense management. Additionally, we had lower FDIC insurance costs as a result of a lower asset base and lower brokered deposits due to the sale of our Mortgage Operations, and lower merger-related expenses.
Previous wording
We compute our tax benefit for interim periods by applying the estimated annual effective tax to year-to-date (Loss) before income taxes and adjust for discrete items that occur in the quarter. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we were unable to make a reliable estimate of our estimated annual effective tax rate as a result of our expected break-even results for 2025; therefore we used our actual effective tax rate to compute our income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The majority of our multi-family loans are non-recourse and are secured by rental apartment buildings. At March 31, 2025, $18.6 billion or 56 percent of the Company’s total MF loan portfolio was secured by properties in New York State, many of which are subject to rent regulation laws to varying degrees. The New York Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019 significantly limits the ability to increase rents on regulated apartments upon vacancy. These limitations may reduce a borrower’s ability to generate additional revenues on those units to offset higher operating expenses due to inflation and the current interest rate environment. This could result in lower net operating income and could impact a borrower’s ability to satisfy repayment obligations during the term of the loan. In addition, the level of income generated by the property may be insufficient to qualify for refinancing at maturity.

In addition, the level of income generated by the property may be insufficient to qualify for refinancing at maturity.

To mitigate our exposure to rent regulated properties, we are curtailing future originations of such loans secured by rent-regulated properties. We are no longer utilizing mortgage brokers to refer loan origination opportunities to us. We are focusing originations and renewal retention on borrowers with whom we will have broader customer relationships beyond lending. Additionally, we are strategically diversifying our loan portfolio to shift from MF loans to other loan sectors.

Historically, our MF loans may have contained an initial interest-only period; however, they were underwritten on a fully amortizing basis, including calculation of the debt service coverage ratio. Whether a borrower qualified for an interest-only period was based on the individual credit profile of the borrower, particularly the loan-to-value of the property. Our multi-family loan portfolio had $11.5 billion outstanding with interest-only payments at March 31, 2025. The weighted average interest-only period remaining was 19.3 months as of March 31, 2025, with approximately 73 percent of these loans entering their amortization period by the end of 2025.

We continue to monitor our loans held for investment portfolio and the related allowance for credit losses, particularly, given the economic pressures facing the commercial real estate and multi-family markets. Although occupancy levels, have historically tended to be stable due to below market rents, rent-regulated loans that are repricing are incurring debt service levels, by themselves, that when combined with inflationary pressure on operating costs and limits on the ability to increase rental rates, approach or exceed some properties’ net operating income and may require the borrower to support the loan from sources unrelated to the collateral until elevated interest rates subside.

C&I loans are often secured by business assets and personal guarantees of the borrower and include financial covenants to monitor the borrower’s financial stability. We continue to add experienced commercial, corporate and specialized industries banking professionals and credit underwriting and portfolio management personnel which will impact our noninterest expense as we continue to strategically diversify our loan portfolio to shift from multi-family loans to other portfolios, most notably C&I.
