ConnectOne Bancorp (CNOB) reported a net income of $23.4 million for Q1 2023, down from $31.0 million in Q4 2022 and $29.9 million in Q1 2022. The diluted earnings per share decreased to $0.59, reflecting a $7.6 million drop in net income largely due to a $10.9 million decline in net interest income. Liquidity has been strengthened to nearly $4 billion, covering 250% of uninsured deposits. The tangible common equity ratio stood at 8.9%, while the CET1 ratio was 10.5%. The net interest margin compressed to 3.00%, driven by rising interest costs and increased competition. Despite these challenges, the company increased its quarterly common dividend by 9.7% to $0.17 per share and repurchased 205,000 shares. The outlook for 2023 suggests flat loan and expense growth amid economic uncertainty.
