PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION

FLUSHING FINANCIAL CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The primary business of Flushing Financial Corporation (the “Holding Company”) is the operation of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Flushing Savings Bank, FSB (the “Savings Bank”). The Holding Company and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Savings Bank, Flushing Commercial Bank, Flushing Preferred Funding Corporation, Flushing Service Corporation, and FSB Properties Inc., are collectively herein referred to as the “Company.” The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) include the collective results of the Company on a consolidated basis.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The information furnished in these interim statements reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for such presented periods of the Company. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed in this Quarterly Report. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations in the interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10, Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior-period consolidated financial statements to conform to the current-period presentation.

2. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

3. Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share is computed in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260 “Earnings Per Share,” which provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and as such should be included in the calculation of earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the total weighted average number of common shares outstanding, which includes unvested participating securities. The Company’s unvested restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards are considered participating securities. Therefore, weighted average common shares outstanding used for computing basic earnings per common share includes common shares outstanding plus unvested restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards. The computation of diluted earnings per share includes the additional dilutive effect of stock options outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents that are anti-dilutive are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share. The numerator for calculating basic and diluted earnings per common share is net income available to common shareholders.

Other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) losses on impaired securities must be fully recognized in earnings if an investor has the intent to sell the debt security or if it is more likely than not that the investor will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost. However, even if an investor does not expect to sell a debt security, it must evaluate the expected cash flows to be received and determine if a credit loss has occurred. In the event that a credit loss has occurred, only the amount of impairment associated with the credit loss is recognized in earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Amounts relating to factors other than credit losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) within Stockholders’ Equity. Additional disclosures regarding the calculation of credit losses as well as factors considered by the investor in reaching a conclusion that an investment is not other-than-temporarily impaired are required.

The Company reviewed each investment that had an unrealized loss at June 30, 2011. An unrealized loss exists when the current fair value of an investment is less than its amortized cost basis. Unrealized losses on available for sale securities, that are deemed to be temporary, are recorded net of tax in AOCL. Unrealized losses that are considered to be other-than-temporary are split between credit related and noncredit related impairments, with the credit related impairment being recorded as a charge against earnings and the noncredit related impairment being recorded in AOCL, net of tax.

The Company evaluates its pooled trust preferred securities, included in the table above in the row labeled “Other”, using an impairment model through an independent third party, which includes evaluating the financial condition of each counterparty. For single issuer trust preferred securities, the Company evaluates the issuer’s financial condition. The Company evaluates its mortgage-backed securities by reviewing the characteristics of the securities, including delinquency and foreclosure levels, projected losses at various loss severity levels and credit enhancement and coverage. In addition, private issue CMOs are evaluated using an impairment model through an independent third party. When an OTTI is identified, the portion of the impairment that is credit related is determined by management by using the following methods: (1) for trust preferred securities, the credit related impairment is determined by using a discounted cash flow model from an independent third party, with the difference between the present value of the projected cash flows and the amortized cost basis of the security recorded as a credit related loss against earnings; and (2) for mortgage-backed securities, credit related impairment is determined for each security by estimating losses based on a set of assumptions, which includes delinquency and foreclosure levels, projected losses at various loss severity levels, credit enhancement and coverage and (3) in the case of private issue CMOs, through an impairment model from an independent third party, and then recording those estimated losses as a credit related loss against earnings.

U.S Government Agencies:

The unrealized losses on U.S. government agencies were caused by movements in interest rates. It is not anticipated that these securities would be settled at a price that is less than the amortized cost of the Company’s investment. Each of these securities is performing according to its terms, and, in the opinion of management, will continue to perform according to its terms. The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not the Company will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of the securities amortized cost basis. This conclusion is based upon considering the Company’s cash and working capital requirements, and contractual and regulatory obligations, none of which the Company believes would cause the sale of the securities. Therefore, the Company did not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2011.

Other Securities:

The unrealized losses in Other securities at June 30, 2011, consist of losses on one single issuer trust preferred security and two pooled trust preferred securities.

The unrealized losses on the single issuer trust preferred security and two pooled trust preferred securities were caused by market interest volatility, a significant widening of credit spreads across markets for these securities, and illiquidity and uncertainty in the financial markets. These securities are currently rated below investment grade. The pooled trust preferred securities do not have collateral that is subordinate to the classes we own. The Company evaluates these securities using an impairment model, through an independent third party, that is applied to debt securities. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost; (2) the current interest rate environment; (3) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, if applicable and (4) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Additionally, management reviews the financial condition of each individual issuer within the pooled trust preferred securities. All of the issuers of the underlying collateral of the pooled trust preferred securities we reviewed are banks.

For each bank, our review included the following performance items:

.	Ratio of tangible equity to assets

.	Tier 1 Risk Weighted Capital

.	Net interest margin

.	Efficiency ratio for most recent two quarters

.	Return on average assets for most recent two quarters

.	Texas Ratio (ratio of non-performing assets plus assets past due over 90 days divided by tangible equity plus the reserve for loan losses)

.	Credit ratings (where applicable)

.	Capital issuances within the past year (where applicable)

.	Ability to complete Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assisted acquisitions (where applicable)

Based on the review of the above factors, we concluded that:

.	All of the performing issuers in our pools are well capitalized banks, and do not appear likely to be closed by their regulators.

.	All of the performing issuers in our pools will continue as a going concern and will not default on their securities.

In order to estimate potential future defaults and deferrals, we segregated the performing underlying issuers by their Texas Ratio. We then reviewed performing issuers with Texas Ratios in excess of 50%. The Texas Ratio is a key indicator of the health of the institution and the likelihood of failure. This ratio compares the problem assets of the institution to the institution’s available capital and reserves to absorb losses that are likely to occur in these assets. There were four issuers with Texas Ratios in excess of 50% for which we concluded there would not be a default, primarily due to their current operating results and demonstrated ability to raise additional capital.

There were no remaining issuers in our pooled trust preferred securities which had a Texas Ratio in excess of 70.00%. For the remaining issuers with a Texas Ratio between 50.00% and 69.99%, we estimated 25% of the related cash flows of the issuer would not be realized. We concluded that issuers with a Texas Ratio below 50.00% are considered healthy, and there was a minimal risk of default. We assigned a zero default rate to these issuers. Our analysis also assumed that issuers currently deferring would default with no recovery, and issuers that have defaulted will have no recovery.

We had an independent third party prepare a discounted cash flow analysis for each of these pooled trust preferred securities based on the assumptions discussed above. Other significant assumptions were: (1) no issuers will prepay; (2) senior classes will not call the debt on their portions; and (3) use of the forward London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) curve. The cash flows were discounted at the effective rate for each security. For each issuer that we assumed a 25% shortfall in the cash flows, the cash flow analysis eliminates 25% of the cash flow for each issuer effective immediately.

One of the pooled trust preferred securities is over 90 days past due and the Company has stopped accruing interest. The remaining pooled trust preferred security as well as the single issuer trust preferred security both are performing according to their terms. The Company also owns a pooled trust preferred security that is carried under the fair value option, where the unrealized losses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income– Net gain (loss) from fair value adjustments. This security is over 90 days past due and the Company has stopped accruing interest.

It is not anticipated at this time that the one single issuer trust preferred security and the two pooled trust preferred securities, would be settled at a price that is less than the amortized cost of the Company’s investment. Each of these securities is performing according to its terms; except for the pooled trust preferred securities for which the Company has stopped accruing interest as discussed above, and, in the opinion of management based on the review performed at June 30, 2011, will continue to perform according to its terms. The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not the Company will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of the securities’ amortized cost basis. This conclusion is based upon considering the Company’s cash and working capital requirements, and contractual and regulatory obligations, none of which the Company believes would cause the sale of the securities. Therefore, the Company did not consider the one single issuer trust preferred security and the two pooled trust preferred securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2011.

At June 30, 2011, the Company held six trust preferred issues which had a current credit rating of at least one rating below investment grade. Two of those issues are carried under the fair value option and therefore, changes in fair value are included in the Consolidated Statement of Income – Net gain (loss) from fair value adjustments.

The following table details the remaining four trust preferred issues that were evaluated to determine if they were other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2011. The class the Company owns in pooled trust preferred securities does not have any excess subordination. The table includes single-issuer or pooled trust preferred securities, class, number of performing banks in the security, amortized cost, fair value, cumulative credit related OTTI, deferrals/defaults as a percentage of the original security, expected deferrals/defaults as a percentage of currently performing issuers and the lowest current rating:

REMIC and CMO:

The unrealized losses in Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit (“REMIC”) and CMO securities at June 30, 2011 consist of five issues from the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), four issues from the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), seven issues from the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) and eight private issues.

The unrealized losses on the REMIC and CMO securities issued by FHLMC, FNMA and GNMA were caused by movements in interest rates. It is not anticipated that these securities would be settled at a price that is less than the amortized cost of the Company’s investment. Each of these securities is performing according to its terms and, in the opinion of management, will continue to perform according to its terms. The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not the Company will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of the securities amortized cost basis. This conclusion is based upon considering the Company’s cash and working capital requirements, and contractual and regulatory obligations, none of which the Company believes would cause the sale of the securities. Therefore, the Company did not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2011.

The unrealized losses at June 30, 2011 on REMIC and CMO securities issued by private issuers were caused by movements in interest rates, a significant widening of credit spreads across markets for these securities, and illiquidity and uncertainty in the financial markets. Each of these securities has some level of credit enhancements, and none are collateralized by sub-prime loans. Currently, five of these securities are performing according to their terms, with three securities remitting less than the full principal amount due. The principal loss for these three securities totaled $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. These losses were anticipated in the cumulative credit related OTTI charges recorded for these three securities.

Credit related impairment for mortgage-backed securities are determined for each security by estimating losses based on the following set of assumptions: (1) delinquency and foreclosure levels; (2) projected losses at various loss severity levels; and (3) credit enhancement and coverage. Based on these reviews, an OTTI charge was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2011, on one private issue CMO of $3.9 million before tax, of which $0.9 million was charged against earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Income and $3.0 million before tax ($1.7 million after-tax) was recorded in AOCL. There was no credit related OTTI charge recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2011.

The portion of the above mentioned OTTI, recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2011, that was related to credit losses was calculated using the following significant assumptions: (1) delinquency and foreclosure levels of 21%; (2) projected loss severity of 50%; (3) assumed default rates of 10% for the first 12 months, 8% for the next 12 months, 6% for the next 12 months and 2% thereafter and (4) prepayment speeds of 10%.

It is not anticipated at this time that the eight private issue securities for which an OTTI charge during the three months ended June 30, 2011was not recorded, would be settled at a price that is less than the current amortized cost of the Company’s investment. Each of these securities is performing according to its terms; except for the three private issue securities that are remitting less than the full principal amount due as discussed above, and in the opinion of management, will continue to perform according to their terms. The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not the Company will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of the securities amortized cost basis. This conclusion is based upon considering the Company’s cash and working capital requirements, and contractual and regulatory obligations, none of which the Company believes would cause the sale of the securities. Therefore, the Company did not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2011.

At June 30, 2011, the Company held 16 private issue CMOs which had a current credit rating of at least one rating below investment grade. Six of those issues are carried under the fair value option and therefore, changes in fair value are included in the Consolidated Statement of Income – Net gain (loss) from fair value adjustments. The following table details the remaining 10 private issue CMOs that were evaluated to determine if they were other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2011. The table includes, by security, amortized cost, fair value, outstanding principal, cumulative credit related OTTI charges, year security was issued, maturity date, current rating, location of underlying collateral and average FICO score of borrower:

5. Loans

Loans are reported at their outstanding principal balance net of any unearned income, charge-offs, deferred loan fees and costs on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans. Interest on loans is recognized on the accrual basis. The accrual of income on loans is generally discontinued when certain factors, such as contractual delinquency of 90 days or more, indicate reasonable doubt as to the timely collectability of such income. Uncollected interest previously recognized on non-accrual loans is reversed from interest income at the time the loan is placed on non-accrual status. A non-accrual loan can be returned to accrual status when contractual delinquency returns to less than 90 days delinquent. Subsequent cash payments received on non-accrual loans that do not bring the loan to less than 90 days delinquent are recorded on a cash basis. Subsequent cash payments can also be applied first as a reduction of principal until all principal is recovered and then subsequently to interest, if in management’s opinion, it is evident that recovery of all principal due is unlikely to occur. Net loan origination costs and premiums or discounts on loans purchased are amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the loans using the level-yield method. Prepayment penalties received on loans which pay in full prior to their scheduled maturity are included in interest income in the period they are collected.

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses at an amount, which, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb probable estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management’s judgment in determining the adequacy of the allowance is based on evaluations of the collectability of loans. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revisions as more information becomes available. In assessing the adequacy of the Company's allowance for loan losses, management considers various factors such as, the current fair value of collateral for collateral dependent loans, the Company's historical loss experience, recent trends in losses, collection policies and collection experience, trends in the volume of non-performing and classified loans, changes in the composition and volume of the gross loan portfolio and local and national economic conditions. The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”) reviews and approves management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis.

The allowance for loan losses is established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. Increases and decreases in the allowance other than charge-offs and recoveries are included in the provision for loan losses. When a loan or a portion of a loan is determined to be uncollectible, the portion deemed uncollectible is charged against the allowance, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The Company recognizes a loan as non-performing when the borrower has indicated the inability to bring the loan current, or due to other circumstances which, in our opinion, indicate the borrower will be unable to bring the loan current within a reasonable time, or if the collateral value is deemed to have been impaired. All loans classified as non-performing, which includes all loans past due 90 days or more, are classified as non-accrual unless there is, in our opinion, compelling evidence the borrower will bring the loan current in the immediate future. Appraisals and/or updated internal evaluations are obtained as soon as practical, and before the loan becomes 90 days delinquent. The loan balances of collateral dependant impaired loans are compared to the loan’s updated fair value. The balance which exceeds fair value is charged-off. Management reviews the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis, and records as a provision the amount deemed appropriate, after considering current year charge-offs, charge-off trends, new loan production, current balance by particular loan categories and delinquent loans by particular loan categories.

A loan is considered impaired when, based upon the most current information, the Company believes it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Interest income on impaired loans is recorded on a cash basis. The Company’s management considers all non-accrual loans impaired.

The Company reviews each impaired loan to determine if a charge-off is to be recorded or if a valuation allowance is to be allocated to the loan. The Company does not allocate a valuation allowance to loans for which we have concluded the current value of the underlying collateral will allow for recovery of the loan balance either through the sale of the loan or by foreclosure and sale of the property.

The Company uses multiple valuation approaches in evaluating the underlying collateral. These include obtaining a third party appraisal, an income approach and a sales approach. When obtained, third party appraisals are given the most weight. The income approach is used for income producing properties, and uses current revenues less operating expenses to determine the net cash flow of the property. Once the net cash flow is determined, the value of the property is calculated using an appropriate capitalization rate for the property. The sales approach uses comparable sales prices in the market. When we do not obtain third party appraisals, we place greater reliance on the income approach to value the collateral.

In preparing internal evaluations of property values, the Company seeks to obtain current data on the subject property from various sources, including: (1) the borrower; (2) copies of existing leases; (3) local real estate brokers and appraisers; (4) public records (such as for real estate taxes and water and sewer charges); (5) comparable sales and rental data in the market; (6) an inspection of the property and (7) interviews with tenants. These internal evaluations primarily focus on the income approach and comparable sales data to value the property.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company utilized recent third party appraisals of the collateral to measure impairment for $88.5 million, or 60.0%, of collateral dependent impaired loans, and used internal evaluations of the property’s value for $59.1 million, or 40.0%, of collateral dependent impaired loans.

The Company may restructure a loan to enable a borrower to continue making payments when it is deemed to be in our best long-term interest. This restructure may include reducing the interest rate or amount of the monthly payment for a specified period of time, after which the interest rate and repayment terms revert to the original terms of the loan. The Company classifies these loans as troubled debt restructured (“TDR”).

The Company reviews its delinquencies on a loan by loan basis and continually explores ways to help borrowers meet their obligations and return them back to current status. Management takes a proactive approach to managing delinquent loans, including conducting site examinations and encouraging borrowers to meet with a Bank representative. We have been developing short-term payment plans that enable certain borrowers to bring their loans current. In addition, we have restructured certain problem loans by either: reducing the interest rate until the next reset date, extending the amortization period thereby lowering the monthly payments, deferring a portion of the interest payment, or changing the loan to interest only payments for a limited time period. At times, certain problem loans have been restructured by combining more than one of these options. These restructurings have not included a reduction of principal balance. We believe that restructuring these loans in this manner will allow certain borrowers to become and remain current on their loans. These restructured loans are classified as TDR. Loans which have been current for six consecutive months at the time they are restructured as TDR remain on accrual status. Loans which were delinquent at the time they are restructured as a TDR are placed on non-accrual status until they have made timely payments for six consecutive months. Loans that are restructured as TDR but are not performing in accordance with the restructured terms are excluded from the TDR table below, as they are placed on non-accrual status and reported as non-performing loans.

The following table shows loans classified as TDR that are performing according to their restructured terms at the periods indicated:

In accordance with our policy and the current regulatory guidelines, we designate loans as “Special Mention,” which are considered “Criticized Loans,” and “Substandard,” “Doubtful,” or “Loss,” which are considered “Classified Loans”. If a loan does not fall within one of the previous mentioned categories then the loan would be considered “Pass.” We designate a loan as Substandard when a well-defined weakness is identified that jeopardizes the orderly liquidation of the debt. We designate a loan Doubtful when it displays the inherent weakness of a Substandard loan with the added provision that collection of the debt in full, on the basis of existing facts, is highly improbable. We designate a loan as Loss if it is deemed the debtor is incapable of repayment. Loans that are designated as Loss are charged to the Allowance for Loan Losses. Loans that are non-accrual are designated as Substandard, Doubtful or Loss. We designate a loan as Special Mention if the asset does not warrant classification within one of the other classifications, but does contain a potential weakness that deserves closer attention.

7. Stock-Based Compensation

For the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s net income, as reported, includes $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation costs and $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of income tax benefits related to the stock-based compensation plans. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s net income, as reported, includes $1.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation costs and $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of income tax benefits related to the stock-based compensation plans.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the exercise price of the award, the expected option term, the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price, the risk-free interest rate over the options’ expected term and the annual dividend yield. The Company uses the fair value of the common stock on the date of award to measure compensation cost for restricted stock unit awards. Compensation cost is recognized over the vesting period of the award using the straight line method. During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company granted 213,095 and 169,820 restricted stock units, respectively. There were no stock options granted during the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. There were no stock options or restricted stock units granted during the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

The 2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Omnibus Plan”) became effective on May 17, 2005 after adoption by the Board of Directors and approval by the stockholders. The Omnibus Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) to grant a variety of equity compensation awards as well as long-term and annual cash incentive awards, all of which can be structured so as to comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal revenue Code”). On May 17, 2011, stockholders approved an amendment to the Omnibus Plan authorizing an additional 625,000 shares for use for full value awards. These additional shares, along with shares remaining that were previously authorized by stockholders under the 1996 Restricted Stock Incentive Plan and the 1996 Stock Option Incentive Plan, are available for use as full value awards and non-full value awards under the Omnibus Plan. As of June 30, 2011, there are 720,283 shares available for full value awards and 300 shares available for non-full value awards. To satisfy stock option exercises or fund restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards, shares are issued from treasury stock, if available, otherwise new shares are issued. Grants and awards under the 1996 Restricted Stock Incentive Plan and the 1996 Stock Option Incentive Plan prior to the effective date of the Omnibus Plan remained outstanding as issued. The Company will maintain separate pools of available shares for full value as opposed to non-full value awards, except that shares can be moved from the non-full value pool to the full value pool on a 3-for-1 basis. The exercise price per share of a stock option grant may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock of the Company, as defined in the Omnibus Plan, on the date of grant, and may not be re-priced without the approval of the Company’s stockholders. Options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock based awards granted under the Omnibus Plan are generally subject to a minimum vesting period of three years with stock options having a 10-year contractual term. Other awards do not have a contractual term of expiration. Restricted stock unit awards include participants who have reached or are close to reaching retirement eligibility, at which time such awards fully vest. These amounts are included in stock-based compensation expense.

Full Value Awards: The first pool is available for full value awards, such as restricted stock unit awards. The pool will be decreased by the number of shares granted as full value awards. The pool will be increased from time to time by: (1) the number of shares that are returned to or retained by the Company as a result of the cancellation, expiration, forfeiture or other termination of a full value award (under the Omnibus Plan or the 1996 Restricted Stock Incentive Plan); (2) the settlement of such an award in cash; (3) the delivery to the award holder of fewer shares than the number underlying the award, including shares which are withheld from full value awards; or (4) the surrender of shares by an award holder in payment of the exercise price or taxes with respect to a full value award. The Omnibus Plan will allow the Company to transfer shares from the non-full value pool to the full value pool on a 3-for-1 basis, but does not allow the transfer of shares from the full value pool to the non-full value pool.

Vested but unissued at June 30, 2011		87,904		$	12.92

As of June 30, 2011, there was $4.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested full value awards granted under the Omnibus Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.1 years. The total fair value of awards vested for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $0.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The total fair value of awards vested for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $1.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The vested but unissued full value awards consist of awards made to employees and directors who are eligible for retirement. According to the terms of the Omnibus Plan, these employees and directors have no risk of forfeiture. These shares will be issued at the original contractual vesting dates.

Non-Full Value Awards: The second pool is available for non-full value awards, such as stock options. The pool will be increased from time to time by the number of shares that are returned to or retained by the Company as a result of the cancellation, expiration, forfeiture or other termination of a non-full value award (under the Omnibus Plan or the 1996 Stock Option Incentive Plan). The second pool will not be replenished by shares withheld or surrendered in payment of the exercise price or taxes, retained by the Company as a result of the delivery to the award holder of fewer shares than the number underlying the award or the settlement of the award in cash.

The following table summarizes certain information regarding the non-full value awards, all of which have been granted as stock options, at or for the six months ended June 30, 2011:

				Weighted-		Weighted-Average		Aggregate

Phantom Stock Plan: the Company maintains a non-qualified phantom stock plan as a supplement to its profit sharing plan for officers who have achieved the level of Senior Vice President and above and completed one year of service. However, officers who had achieved at least the level of Vice President and completed one year of service prior to January 1, 2009 remain eligible to participate in the phantom stock plan. Awards are made under this plan on certain compensation not eligible for awards made under the profit sharing plan, due to the terms of the profit sharing plan and the Internal Revenue Code. Employees receive awards under this plan proportionate to the amount they would have received under the profit sharing plan, but for limits imposed by the profit sharing plan and the Internal Revenue Code. The awards are made as cash awards, and then converted to common stock equivalents (phantom shares) at the then current market value of the Company’s common stock. Dividends are credited to each employee’s account in the form of additional phantom shares each time the Company pays a dividend on its common stock. In the event of a change of control (as defined in this plan), an employee’s interest is converted to a fixed dollar amount and deemed to be invested in the same manner as his interest in the Savings Bank’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Employees vest under this plan 20% per year for 5 years. Employees also become 100% vested upon a change of control. Employees receive their vested interest in this plan in the form of a cash lump sum payment or installments, as elected by the employee, after termination of employment. The Company adjusts its liability under this plan to the fair value of the shares at the end of each period.

The following table summarizes the Phantom Stock Plan at or for the six months ended June 30, 2011:

Phantom Stock Plan	Shares			Fair Value

Outstanding at December 31, 2010		30,970		$	14.00

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense (benefit) for the Phantom Stock Plan of $67,000 and $(9,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The total fair value of the distributions from the Phantom Stock Plan was $1,000 and $2,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense (benefit) for the Phantom Stock Plan of $(30,000) and $33,000, respectively. The total fair value of the distributions from the Phantom Stock Plan during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $2,000 and $4,000, respectively.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company has contributed $117,000 to the Employee Pension Plan, $44,000 to the Outside Director Pension Plan and $25,000 to the Other Postretirement Benefit Plans. As of June 30, 2011, the Company has not revised its expected contributions for the year ending December 31, 2011.

9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company carries certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments” (“ASC Topic 825”), and values those financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC Topic 825 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. At June 30, 2011, the Company carried financial assets and financial liabilities under the fair value option with fair values of $75.1 million and $30.7 million, respectively. At December 31, 2010, the Company carried financial assets and financial liabilities under the fair value option with fair values of $73.0 million and $32.2 million, respectively. The Company elected to measure at fair value securities with a cost of $10.0 million that were purchased during the six months ended June 30, 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company did not elect to carry any additional financial assets or financial liabilities under the fair value option.

The following table presents the financial assets and financial liabilities reported at fair value under the fair value option, and the changes in fair value included in the Consolidated Statement of Income – Net gain from fair value adjustments, at or for the periods ended as indicated:


	Fair Value		Fair Value		Changes in Fair Values For Items Measured at Fair Value

Net gain from fair value adjustments (1) (2)					$	1,043		$	2,623		$	357		$	4,238

(1)	The net gain from fair value adjustments presented in the above table does not include net losses of $1.2 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, from the change in the fair value of interest rate caps.

(2)	The net gain from fair value adjustments presented in the above table does not include net losses of $1.2 million and $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, from the change in the fair value of interest rate caps.

Included in the fair value of the financial assets and financial liabilities selected for the fair value option is the accrued interest receivable or payable for the related instrument. One pooled trust preferred security is over 90 days past due and the Company has stopped accruing interest. The Company continues to accrue on the remaining financial instruments and reports as interest income or interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income the interest receivable or payable on the financial instruments selected for the fair value option at their respective contractual rates.

The borrowed funds had a contractual principal amount of $61.9 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The fair value of borrowed funds includes accrued interest payable of $0.4 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The Company generally holds its earning assets, other than securities available for sale, to maturity and settles its liabilities at maturity. However, fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time and are based on relevant market information. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular instrument. Accordingly, as assumptions change, such as interest rates and prepayments, fair value estimates change and these amounts may not necessarily be realized in an immediate sale.

Disclosure of fair value does not require fair value information for items that do not meet the definition of a financial instrument or certain other financial instruments specifically excluded from its requirements. These items include core deposit intangibles and other customer relationships, premises and equipment, leases, income taxes, foreclosed properties and equity.

Further, fair value disclosure does not attempt to value future income or business. These items may be material and accordingly, the fair value information presented does not purport to represent, nor should it be construed to represent, the underlying “market” or franchise value of the Company.

Financial assets and financial liabilities reported at fair value are required to be measured based on either: (1) quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments (Level 1); (2) significant other observable inputs (Level 2); or (3) significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).

A description of the methods and significant assumptions utilized in estimating the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Level 1 – where quoted market prices are available in an active market. At June 30, 2011, Level 1 includes loans available for sale. The Company did not value any of its assets or liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis as Level 1 at December 31, 2010.

PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION

FLUSHING FINANCIAL CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Level 2 – when quoted market prices are not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar financial instruments and adjusted for differences between the quoted instrument and the instrument being valued. Fair value can also be estimated by using pricing models, or discounted cash flows. Pricing models primarily use market-based or independently sourced market parameters as inputs, including, but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, equity or debt prices, and credit spreads. In addition to observable market information, models also incorporate maturity and cash flow assumptions. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, Level 2 includes mortgage related securities, corporate debt and interest rate caps.

Level 3 – when there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, financial instruments are classified as Level 3. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, Level 3 includes trust preferred securities owned by and junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company.

The methods described above may produce fair values that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with those of other market participants, the use of different methodologies, assumptions and models to determine fair value of certain financial instruments could produce different estimates of fair value at the reporting date.

The following table sets forth the assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis, classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy for the period indicated:

	For the Six months ended

The Company did not have any liabilities that were carried at fair value on a non-recurring basis at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The estimated fair value of each material class of financial instruments at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the related methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are as follows:

Cash and Due from Banks, Overnight Interest-Earning Deposits and Federal Funds Sold, FHLB-NY stock, Bank Owned Life Insurance, Interest and Dividends Receivable, Mortgagors’ Escrow Deposits and Other Liabilities:

The carrying amounts are a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Securities Available for Sale:

Securities available for sale are carried at fair value in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Fair value is based upon quoted market prices (Level 1 input), where available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities and adjusted for differences between the quoted instrument and the instrument being valued (Level 2 input). When there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified as (Level 3 input).

Loans Available for Sale:

Loans available for sale are carried at fair value in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Fair value is based upon quoted market prices (Level 1 input).

Loans:

The estimated fair value of loans, with carrying amounts of $3,231.2 million and $3,276.3 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, was $3,352.0 million and $3,359.8 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Fair value is estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities (Level 2 input).

For non-accruing loans, fair value is generally estimated by discounting management’s estimate of future cash flows with a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with such assets (Level 2 input).

Due to Depositors:

The estimated fair value of due to depositors, with carrying amounts of $3,089.1 million and $3,163.3 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, was $3,111.2 million and $3,212.6 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The fair values of demand, passbook savings, NOW and money market deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting dates (i.e. their carrying value). The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposits are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities (Level 2 input).

Borrowings:

The estimated fair value of borrowings, with carrying amounts of $762.7 million and $708.7 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, was $718.5 million and $736.4 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The fair value of borrowings is estimated by discounting the contractual cash flows using interest rates in effect for borrowings with similar maturities and collateral requirements (Level 2 input) or using a market-standard model (Level 3 input).

Interest Rate Caps:

The estimated fair value of interest rate caps at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $1.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively. The Company has not designated the interest rate cap agreements as hedges as defined under the Derivatives and Hedging Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC. Interest rate caps are carried at fair value in the Consolidated Financial Statements in “Other assets” and changes in their fair value are recorded through earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Income - Net gain (loss) from fair value adjustments. The Company purchased interest rate caps during 2009 with a notional amount of $100.0 million. The Company uses interest rate caps to manage its exposure to rising interest rates on its financial liabilities without stated maturities. Fair value for interest rate caps is based upon broker quotes (Level 2 input). The Company recorded net losses of $1.2 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, from the change in the fair value of interest rate caps and net losses of $1.2 million and $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, from the change in the fair value of interest rate caps.

Other Real Estate Owned:

OREO are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. The fair value is based on appraised value through a current appraisal, or sometimes through an internal review, additionally adjusted by the estimated costs to sell the property (Level 3 input).

Other Financial Instruments:

The fair values of commitments to sell, lend or borrow are estimated using the fees currently charged or paid to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle with the counterparties at the reporting date. For fixed-rate loan commitments to sell, lend or borrow, fair values also consider the difference between current levels of interest rates and committed rates (where applicable).

At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair values of the above financial instruments approximate the recorded amounts of the related fees and were not considered to be material.

The income tax provision in the Consolidated Statements of Income has been provided at effective rates of 39.8% and 38.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 39.4% and 39.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The effective rates differ from the statutory federal income tax rate as follows:

	For the three months										For the six months
	ended June 30,										ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2011					2010					2011					2010

Taxes at federal statutory rate	$	5,273		35.0	%	$	4,392		35.0	%	$	9,827		35.0	%		8,993		35.0	%

The Company has recorded a deferred tax asset of $31.8 million at June 30, 2011, which is included in “Other assets” in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. This represents the anticipated net federal, state and local tax benefits expected to be realized in future years upon the utilization of the underlying tax attributes comprising this balance. The Company has reported taxable income for federal, state, and local tax purposes in each of the past three fiscal years. In management’s opinion, in view of the Company’s previous, current and projected future earnings trend, the probability that some of the Company’s $20.7 million deferred tax liability can be used to offset a portion of the deferred tax asset, as well as certain tax planning strategies, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be fully realized. Accordingly, no valuation allowance was deemed necessary for the deferred tax asset at June 30, 2011.

12. Regulatory

On July 21, 2011, under provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the Savings Bank’s primary regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”), was merged into the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), and the Holding Company’s primary regulator, which had been the OTS, became the Federal Reserve. The OCC, on July 21, 2011, issued an Interim Final Rule containing the regulations issued by the OTS that the OCC has authority to promulgate and enforce as of July 21, 2011. This Interim Final Rule was effective as of July 21, 2011. The Savings Bank and the Holding Company will continue to file regulatory reports through the end of 2011 in accordance with the requirements that existed under the OTS. Beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Savings Bank and the Holding Company will file regulatory reports in accordance with the requirements of the OCC and the Federal Reserve, respectively. Under the regulations of the OTS, the Holding Company was not required to meet capital requirements. Under the regulations of the Federal Reserve, the Holding Company will be required to meet capital requirements similar to that of the Savings Bank. If the Holding Company had been subject to the capital requirements that applied to the Savings Bank, its capital ratios would have been slightly higher than those of the Savings Bank, and it would have been considered “well-capitalized” under regulatory requirements.

13. New Authoritative Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 820. The update requires the following additional disclosures: (1) separately disclose the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers and (2) separately disclose information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using Level 3. The update provides for amendments to existing disclosures as follows: (1) fair value measurement disclosures are to be made for each class of assets and liabilities and (2) disclosures are to be made about valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The update also includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. The update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of this update did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 855 “Subsequent Events.” The update provides that an SEC filer is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date financial statements are issued. However, an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The update was effective as of the date of issuance. Adoption of this update did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 310 “Receivables.” The update is to provide financial statement users with greater transparency about an entity’s allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. The update requires disclosures that facilitate financial statement users’ evaluation of the following: (1) the nature of credit risk inherent in the entity’s portfolio of financing receivables; (2) how that risk is analyzed and assessed in arriving at the allowance for credit losses and (3) the changes and reasons for those changes in the allowance for credit losses. An entity is required to provide disclosures on a disaggregated basis by portfolio segment and class of financing receivables. This update requires the expansion of currently required disclosures about financing receivables as well as requiring additional disclosures about financing receivables. The disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements “Loans.”

In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-01, which temporarily delays the effective date of the required disclosures about troubled debt restructurings contained in ASU No. 2010-20. The delay is intended to allow the FASB additional time to deliberate what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. All other amendments contained in ASU No. 2010-20 are effective as issued. Adoption of this update did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-02, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 310 “Receivables.” The update provides clarifying guidance as to what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The update provides clarifying guidance on a creditor’s evaluation of the following: (1) how a restructuring constitutes a concession and (2) if the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption. In addition, disclosures about troubled debt restructurings which were delayed by the issuance of ASU No. 2011-01, are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011. Adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-03, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860 “Transfers and Servicing.” The amendments in this update remove from the assessment of effective control (1) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011, and should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted. Adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement.” The amendments in this update clarify how to measure and disclose fair value under ASC Topic 820. The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011, and should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted. Adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income.” The amendments eliminate the option to present components of other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ equity. Instead, the new guidance requires entities to present all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity either as a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or as two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011, and must be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

ITEM 2.

This Quarterly Report should be read in conjunction with the more detailed and comprehensive disclosures included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. In addition, please read this section in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein.

As used in this Quarterly Report, the words “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” are used to refer to Flushing Financial Corporation and our consolidated subsidiaries, including Flushing Savings Bank, FSB (the “Savings Bank”) and Flushing Commercial Bank (the “Commercial Bank,” and together with the Savings Bank, the “Banks”).

Statements contained in this Quarterly Report relating to plans, strategies, objectives, economic performance and trends, projections of results of specific activities or investments and other statements that are not descriptions of historical facts may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking information is inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors, which include, but are not limited to, the factors set forth in the preceding paragraph and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, and in other documents filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including, without limitation, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Forward-looking statements may be identified by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “forecasts,” “potential” or “continue” or similar terms or the negative of these terms. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. We have no obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

Executive Summary

We are a Delaware corporation organized in May 1994 at the direction of the Savings Bank. The Savings Bank was organized in 1929 as a New York State chartered mutual savings bank. In 1994, the Savings Bank converted to a federally chartered mutual savings bank and changed its name from Flushing Savings Bank to Flushing Savings Bank, FSB. The Savings Bank converted from a federally chartered mutual savings bank to a federally chartered stock savings bank on November 21, 1995, at which time Flushing Financial Corporation acquired all of the stock of the Savings Bank. The primary business of Flushing Financial Corporation at this time is the operation of its wholly owned subsidiary, the Savings Bank. The Savings Bank owns four subsidiaries: Flushing Commercial Bank, Flushing Preferred Funding Corporation, Flushing Service Corporation, and FSB Properties Inc. In November 2006, the Savings Bank launched an internet branch, iGObanking.com®. The activities of Flushing Financial Corporation are primarily funded by dividends, if any, received from the Savings Bank, issuances of junior subordinated debt and issuances of equity securities. Flushing Financial Corporation’s common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “FFIC.”

Our principal business is attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those deposits together with funds generated from ongoing operations and borrowings, primarily in (1) originations and purchases of one-to-four family (focusing on mixed-use properties, which are properties that contain both residential dwelling units and commercial units), multi-family residential and, to a lesser extent, commercial real estate mortgage loans; (2) construction loans, primarily for residential properties; (3) Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans and other small business loans; (4) mortgage loan surrogates such as mortgage-backed securities; and (5) U.S. government securities, corporate fixed-income securities and other marketable securities. We also originate certain other consumer loans.

Our results of operations depend primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between the income earned on its interest-earning assets and the cost of our interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is the result of our interest rate margin, which is the difference between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, adjusted for the difference in the average balance of interest-earning assets as compared to the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. We also generate non-interest income from loan fees, service charges on deposit accounts, mortgage servicing fees, other fees, income earned on Bank Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”), dividends on Federal Home Bank of New York (“FHLB-NY”) stock and net gains and losses on sales of securities and loans. Our operating expenses consist principally of employee compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment costs, other general and administrative expenses and income tax expense. Our results of operations also can be significantly affected by our periodic provision for loan losses and specific provision for losses on real estate owned.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our strategy is to continue our focus on being an institution serving consumers, businesses and governmental units in our local markets. In furtherance of this objective, we intend to:

·	continue our emphasis on the origination of multi-family residential and one-to-four family mixed-use property mortgage loans;

·	transition from a traditional thrift to a more ‘commercial-like’ banking institution;

·	increase our commitment to the multi-cultural marketplace, with a particular focus on the Asian community in Queens;

·	maintain asset quality;

·	manage deposit growth and maintain a low cost of funds through:

§	business banking deposits,

§	municipal deposits through government banking, and

§	new customer relationships via iGObanking.com®;

·	cross sell to lending and deposit customers;

·	take advantage of market disruptions to attract talent and customers from competitors; and

·	manage interest rate risk and capital.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively implement this strategy. Our strategy is subject to change by the Board of Directors.

Our investment policy, which is approved by the Board of Directors, is designed primarily to manage the interest rate sensitivity of our overall assets and liabilities, to generate a favorable return without incurring undue interest rate risk and credit risk, to complement our lending activities and to provide and maintain liquidity. In establishing our investment strategies, we consider our business and growth strategies, the economic environment, our interest rate risk exposure, our interest rate sensitivity “gap” position, the types of securities to be held, and other factors. We classify our investment securities as available for sale.

We carry a portion of our financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value and record changes in their fair value through earnings in non-interest income on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. A description of the financial assets and financial liabilities that are carried at fair value through earnings can be found in Note 9 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

At June 30, 2011, total assets were $4,323.2 million, a decrease of $1.5 million from $4,324.7 million at December 31, 2010. Total loans, net decreased $46.8 million, or 1.4%, during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $3,201.9 million from $3,248.6 million at December 31, 2010. Loan originations and purchases were $177.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $63.5 million from $240.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decline in originations was attributable to the current economic environment and the shifting of our focus to multi-family properties and deemphasizing commercial real estate and construction lending. However, loan applications in process increased to $197.4 million compared to $164.7 million at March 31, 2011 and $142.2 million at December 31, 2010.

We continue to maintain conservative underwriting standards that include, among other things, a loan-to-value ratio of 75% or less and a debt coverage ratio of at least 125%. Multi-family residential, commercial real estate, and one-to-four family – mixed-use property mortgage loans originated during the second quarter of 2011 had an average loan-to-value ratio of 52.2%, 69.2% and 47.9%, respectively, and an average debt coverage ratio of 210%, 158% and 183%, respectively.

We also focus on the performance of the Savings Bank’s existing loan portfolio. Non-performing loans were $110.0 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $2.0 million from $112.1 million at December 31, 2010. Performing loans delinquent 60 to 89 days were $12.5 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $7.3 million from $19.8 million at December 31, 2010. Performing loans delinquent 30 to 59 days were $65.0 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $8.5 million from $73.5 million at December 31, 2010. The majority of non-performing loans are collateralized by residential income producing properties in the New York City metropolitan area that remain occupied and generate revenue. Given New York City’s low vacancy rates, they have retained value and provided us with low loss content in our non-performing loans. We review the property values of impaired loans quarterly and charge-off amounts in excess of 90% of the value of the loan’s collateral. Net loan charge-offs during the six months ended June 30, 2011 were 52 basis points of average loans, which continue to be below the industry average.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Total liabilities were $3,918.1 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $16.6 million, or 0.4%, from $3,934.7 million at December 31, 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, due to depositors decreased $74.2 million, or 2.4%, to $3,089.1 million, as a result of a $148.5 million decrease in core deposits partially offset by a $74.2 million increase in certificates of deposit. Borrowed funds increased $54.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011, which offset the decrease in due to depositors. Short term borrowings were obtained to replace certain deposits which have seasonal declines. These borrowings will be repaid as these seasonal deposits increase.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $17.0 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 8.7%, compared to $15.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.55 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $0.03, or 5.8%, from $0.52 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Return on average equity was 8.6% for both of the six month periods ended June 30, 2011and 2010. Return on average assets was 0.8% for both of the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

The net interest margin increased 23 basis points to 3.61% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.38% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in the net interest margin was primarily due to a reduction of 49 basis points in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from the comparable prior year period. The decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was primarily attributable to reductions in the rates paid on deposits.

We recorded a provision for loan losses of $10.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011, which was the same as recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The provision was deemed necessary as a result of the regular quarterly analysis of the allowance for loan losses. The regular quarterly analysis is based on management’s evaluation of the risks inherent in the various components of the loan portfolio and other factors, including historical loan loss experience (which is updated quarterly), changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio, collection policies and experience, trends in the volume of non-accrual loans and local and national economic conditions. See “-ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES.”

The Savings Bank continues to be well-capitalized under regulatory requirements, with Core, Tier 1 risk-based and Total risk-based capital ratios of 9.37%, 13.58% and 14.54%, respectively, at June 30, 2011.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010

General. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $9.1 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 18.3%, compared to $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.29 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $0.04, or 16.0%, from $0.25 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Return on average equity was 9.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 8.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Return on average assets was 0.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 0.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Interest Income. Total interest and dividend income decreased $0.4 million, or 0.8%, to $56.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $56.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in interest income was attributable to a 19 basis point decline in the yield of interest-earning assets to 5.54% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 5.73% in the comparable prior year period combined with a $20.2 million decrease in the average balance of total loans to $3,220.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $3,241.1 million for the comparable prior year period. These declines were partially offset by a $102.7 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets to $4,080.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $3,977.7 million for the comparable prior year period. The 19 basis point decline in the yield of interest-earning assets was primarily due to a seven basis point reduction in the yield of the loan portfolio to 5.98% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 6.05% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, combined with a 31 basis point decline in the yield on total securities to 4.18% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 4.49% for the comparable prior year period. In addition, the yield of interest-earning assets was negatively impacted by a $20.2 million decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2011 in the average balance of total loans, net and a $122.9 million increase in the combined average balances of the lower yielding securities portfolio and interest-earning deposits for the three months ended June 30, 2011, both of which have a lower yield than the yield of total interest-earning assets. The seven basis point decrease in the loan portfolio was primarily due to the decline in the rates earned on new loan originations. The 31 basis point decrease in the securities portfolio was primarily due to new securities being purchased at lower yields than the existing portfolio. The yield on the mortgage loan portfolio decreased three basis points to 6.06% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 6.09% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The yield on the mortgage loan portfolio, excluding prepayment penalty income, increased one basis point to 6.06% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 6.05% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $3.8 million, or 16.2%, to $19.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $23.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in interest expense was due to the reduction in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which decreased 44 basis points to 2.09% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 2.53% for the comparable prior year period. This decrease was partially offset with a $56.8 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities to $3,765.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $3,708.8 million for the comparable prior year period. The 44 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was primarily attributable to the Savings Bank reducing the rates it pays on its deposit products and reducing borrowed funds. The cost of certificates of deposit, money market accounts, savings accounts and NOW accounts decreased 54 basis points, 52 basis points, 20 basis points and 34 basis points, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from the comparable prior year period. This resulted in a decrease in the cost of due to depositors of 36 basis points to 1.62% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 1.98% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The cost of borrowed funds remained unchanged from the comparable prior year period at 4.40% for the three months ended June 30, 2011, with the average balance reducing $211.5 million to $668.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $880.2 million for the comparable prior year period.

Net Interest Income. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, net interest income was $36.8 million, an increase of $3.4 million, or 10.0%, from $33.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in net interest income was attributable to a 25 basis point increase in the net-interest spread to 3.45% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.20% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, combined with an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $102.7 million to $4,080.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in the net-interest spread was partially offset by a $20.2 million decrease in the average balance of total loans to $3,220.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $3,241.1 million for the comparable prior year period. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased 19 basis points to 5.54% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 5.73% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. However, this was more than offset by a decline in the cost of funds of 44 basis points to 2.09% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 2.53% for the comparable prior year period. The net interest margin improved 25 basis points to 3.61% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.36% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Excluding prepayment penalty income, the net interest margin would have increased 21 basis points to 3.54% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.33% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses of $5.0 million was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2011, which was the same as that recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2010. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, non-performing loans decreased $6.2 million to $110.0 million from $116.2 million at March 31, 2011. Net charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $3.1 million. Non-performing loans primarily consists of mortgage loans collateralized by residential income producing properties located in the New York City metropolitan market that continue to show low vacancy rates, thereby retaining more of their value. The current loan-to-value ratio for our non-performing loans collateralized by real estate was 63.1% at June 30, 2011. We anticipate that we will continue to see low loss content in this segment of the loan portfolio that constitutes the majority of our non-performing loans. The Savings Bank continues to maintain conservative underwriting standards. However, given the level of non-performing loans, the current economic uncertainties, and the charge-offs recorded in the second quarter of 2011, management, as a result of the regular quarterly analysis of the allowance for loan losses, deemed it necessary to record a $5.0 million provision for possible loan losses in the second quarter of 2011.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $2.1 million, an increase of $0.4 million from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to a $1.0 million decline in OTTI charges recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the comparable prior year period. The decrease in OTTI charges was partially offset by a $0.3 million reduction in other income and a $0.1 million decline in dividends received from the FHLB-NY during the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the comparable prior year period. Additionally, the three months ended June 30, 2011 included a $0.1 million increase in net losses recorded for changes in assets and liabilities carried at fair value from the comparable prior year period.

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense was $18.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $1.3 million, or 7.1%, from $17.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily due to the growth of the Savings Bank over the past year, which included the opening of a new branch in January 2011, an increase in stock based compensation expense, and an increase in foreclosure expense. Salaries and benefits increased $1.1 million due to a new branch, employee salary increases as of January 1, 2011, and increases in stock based compensation, payroll taxes, and employee medical and retirement costs. Other expense increased $0.3 million primarily due to increases in foreclosure expense. These increases were partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in FDIC assessments during the three months ended June 30, 2011 from the comparable prior year period. The efficiency ratio was 48.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 48.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Income before Income Taxes. Income before the provision for income taxes increased $2.5 million, or 20.1%, to $15.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $12.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 for the reasons discussed above.

Provision for Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased $1.1 million to $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The effective tax rate was 39.8% and 38.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010

General. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $17.0 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 8.7%, compared to $15.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.55 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $0.03, or 5.8%, from $0.52 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Return on average equity was 8.6% for both of the six month periods ended June 30, 2011and 2010. Return on average assets was 0.8% for both of the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

Interest Income. Total interest and dividend income decreased $1.2 million, or 1.1%, to $113.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $114.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in interest income was attributable to a 24 basis point decline in the yield of interest-earning assets to 5.55% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 5.79% in the comparable prior year period. The decrease in the yield was partially offset by a $128.2 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets to $4,093.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $3,965.0 million for the comparable prior year period. The 24 basis point decline in the yield of interest-earning assets was primarily due to a 13 basis point reduction in the yield of the loan portfolio to 5.99% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 6.12% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, combined with a 35 basis point decline in the yield on total securities to 4.17% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 4.52% for the comparable prior year period. In addition, the yield of interest-earning assets was negatively impacted by a $116.8 million increase in the combined average balances of the lower yielding securities portfolio and interest-earning deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2011, both of which have a lower yield than the yield of total interest-earning assets. The 13 basis point decrease in the loan portfolio was primarily due to the decline in the rates earned on new loan originations combined with an increase in non-accrual loans for which we do not accrue interest income. The 35 basis point decrease in the securities portfolio was primarily due to new securities being purchased at lower yields than the existing portfolio. The yield on the mortgage loan portfolio decreased 10 basis points to 6.08% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 6.18% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The yield on the mortgage loan portfolio, excluding prepayment penalty income, decreased 14 basis points to 5.99% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 6.13% for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $8.2 million, or 17.2%, to $39.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $47.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in interest expense was due to the reduction in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which decreased 49 basis points to 2.09% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 2.58% for the comparable prior year period. This decrease was partially offset with an $82.4 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities to $3,785.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $3,703.2 million for the comparable prior year period. The 49 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was primarily attributable to the Savings Bank reducing the rates it pays on its deposit products. The cost of certificates of deposit, money market accounts, savings accounts and NOW accounts decreased 57 basis points, 48 basis points, 23 basis points and 37 basis points, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the comparable prior year period. This resulted in a decrease in the cost of due to depositors of 39 basis points to 1.61% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 2.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The cost of borrowed funds increased four basis points to 4.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 4.36% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 with the average balance decreasing $263.1 million to $676.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $939.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Net Interest Income. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net interest income was $74.0 million, an increase of $7.0 million, or 10.5%, from $66.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in net interest income was attributable to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $128.2 million to $4,093.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, combined with an increase in the net interest spread of 25 basis points to 3.46% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.21% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased 24 basis points to 5.55% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 5.79% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. However, this was more than offset by a decline in the cost of funds of 49 basis points to 2.09% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 2.58% for the comparable prior year period. The net interest margin improved 23 basis points to 3.61% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.38% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Excluding prepayment penalty income, the net interest margin would have increased 21 basis points to 3.55% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.34% for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses of $10.0 million was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2011, which was the same as that recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, non-performing loans decreased $2.0 million to $110.0 million from $112.1 million at December 31, 2010. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $8.3 million. Non-performing loans primarily consists of mortgage loans collateralized by residential income producing properties located in the New York City metropolitan market that continue to show low vacancy rates, thereby retaining more of their value. The current loan-to-value ratio for our non-performing loans collateralized by real estate was 63.1% at June 30, 2011. We anticipate that we will continue to see low loss content in this segment of the loan portfolio that constitutes the majority of our non-performing loans. The Savings Bank continues to maintain conservative underwriting standards. However, given the level of non-performing loans, the current economic uncertainties, and the charge-offs recorded in the second quarter of 2011, management, as a result of the regular quarterly analysis of the allowance for loans losses, deemed it necessary to record a $10.0 million provision for possible loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2011. See “-ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES.”

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $3.0 million, a decrease of $1.3 million from $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in net losses recorded for changes in assets and liabilities carried at fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010 and a $0.5 million decrease in other income.

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense was $38.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $3.3 million, or 9.4%, from $35.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily due to the growth of the Savings Bank over the past year, which included the opening of a new branch in January 2011, an increase in stock based compensation expense, and an increase in foreclosure expense. Salaries and benefits increased $2.3 million due to a new branch, employee salary increases as of January 1, 2011, and increases in stock based compensation, payroll taxes, and employee medical and retirement costs. Other expense increased $1.0 million primarily due to an increase in foreclosure expense and several other items. The efficiency ratio was 49.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 49.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

The increase in mortgage-backed securities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to purchases of $105.7 million and a $2.9 million improvement in the mortgage-backed securities fair value. These increases were partially offset by principal repayments of $61.6 million and $0.9 million in OTTI charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, other securities increased $4.7 million, or 9.4%, to $54.8 million from $50.1 million at December 31, 2010.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Liabilities. Total liabilities were $3,918.1 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $16.6 million, or 0.4%, from $3,934.7 million at December 31, 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, due to depositors decreased $74.2 million, or 2.4%, to $3,089.1 million, as a result of a $148.5 million decrease in core deposits partially offset by a $74.2 million increase in certificates of deposit. Borrowed funds increased $54.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011, which offset the decrease in due to depositors.

Equity. Total stockholders’ equity increased $15.1 million, or 3.9%, to $405.2 million at June 30, 2011 from $390.0 million at December 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to net income of $17.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase in other comprehensive income of $1.1 million, the net issuance of 264,008 common shares during the six months ended June 30, 2011 upon vesting of restricted stock awards and the exercise of stock options, and the annual funding of certain employee retirement plans through the release of common shares from the Employee Benefit Trust. These increases were partially offset by the declaration and payment of dividends on the Company’s common stock of $8.0 million. Book value per common share was $12.85 at June 30, 2011 compared to $12.48 at December 31, 2010. Tangible book value per common share was $12.34 at June 30, 2011 compared to $11.95 at December 31, 2010.

The Company did not repurchase any shares during the six months ended June 30, 2011 under its current stock repurchase program. At June 30, 2011, 362,050 shares remain to be repurchased under the current stock repurchase program.

Cash flow. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, funds provided by the Company's operating activities amounted to $26.9 million. The Company's primary business objective is the origination and purchase of one-to-four family (including mixed-use properties), multi-family residential and commercial real estate mortgage loans, and commercial, business and SBA loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, due to a reduction in the level of loan originations, the net total of loan originations and purchases less loan repayments and sales was a $31.5 million inflow of cash. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company had $119.5 million in purchases of securities available for sale. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, additional funds were provided by a $55.6 million net increase in borrowed funds and $68.4 million in proceeds from maturities, sales, calls and prepayments of securities available for sale. These increases funded a $74.8 million decrease in customer deposits. The Company also used funds of $8.0 million for dividend payments during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

INTEREST RATE RISK

The Consolidated Statements of Financial Position have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the changes in fair value of certain investments due to changes in interest rates. Generally, the fair value of financial investments such as loans and securities fluctuates inversely with changes in interest rates. As a result, increases in interest rates could result in decreases in the fair value of the Company’s interest-earning assets which could adversely affect the Company’s results of operation if such assets were sold, or, in the case of securities classified as available-for-sale, decreases in the Company’s stockholders’ equity, if such securities were retained.

The Company manages the mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities on a continuous basis to maximize return and adjust its exposure to interest rate risk. On a quarterly basis, management prepares the “Earnings and Economic Exposure to Changes in Interest Rate” report for review by the Board of Directors, as summarized below. This report quantifies the potential changes in net interest income and net portfolio value should interest rates go up or down (shocked) 200 basis points, assuming the yield curves of the rate shocks will be parallel to each other. The Company’s regulators currently place focus on the net portfolio value, focusing on a rate shock up or down of 200 basis points. Net portfolio value is defined as the market value of assets net of the market value of liabilities. The market value of assets and liabilities is determined using a discounted cash flow calculation. The net portfolio value ratio is the ratio of the net portfolio value to the market value of assets. All changes in income and value are measured as percentage changes from the projected net interest income and net portfolio value at the base interest rate scenario. The base interest rate scenario assumes interest rates at June 30, 2011. Various estimates regarding prepayment assumptions are made at each level of rate shock. However, prepayment penalty income is excluded from this analysis. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. At June 30, 2011, the Company was within the guidelines set forth by the Board of Directors for each interest rate level.

AVERAGE BALANCES

Net interest income represents the difference between income on interest-earning assets and expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends upon the relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rate earned or paid on them. The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown. Average balances are derived from average daily balances. The yields include amortization of fees which are considered adjustments to yields.

TROUBLED DEBT RESTRUCUTURED AND NON-PERFORMING ASSETS

Management continues to adhere to the Savings Bank’s conservative underwriting standards. The majority of the Savings Bank’s non-performing loans are collateralized by residential income producing properties that are occupied, thereby retaining more of their value and reducing the potential loss. The Savings Bank takes a proactive approach to managing delinquent loans, including conducting site examinations and encouraging borrowers to meet with a Savings Bank representative. The Savings Bank has been developing short-term payment plans that enable certain borrowers to bring their loans current. The Savings Bank reviews its delinquencies on a loan by loan basis and continually explores ways to help borrowers meet their obligations and return them back to current status. At times, the Savings Bank may restructure a loan to enable a borrower to continue making payments when it is deemed to be in the best long-term interest of the Savings Bank. This restructure may include making concessions to the borrower that the Savings Bank would not make in the normal course of business, such as reducing the interest rate until the next reset date, extending the amortization period thereby lowering the monthly payments, or changing the loan to interest only payments for a limited time period. At times, certain problem loans have been restructured by combining more than one of these options. The Savings Bank believes that restructuring these loans in this manner will allow certain borrowers to become and remain current on their loans. The Savings Bank classifies these loans as TDR. Loans which have been current for six consecutive months at the time they are restructured as a TDR remain on accrual status. Loans which were delinquent at the time they are restructured as a TDR are placed on non-accrual status until they have made timely payments for six consecutive months. Loans that are restructured as a TDR but are not performing in accordance with the restructured terms are excluded from the TDR table below, as they are placed on non-accrual status and reported as non-performing loans.

The following table shows loans classified as TDR that are performing according to their restructured terms at the periods indicated:

	June 30,		March 31,		December 31,

Total		-		9,599		-
Total performing troubled debt restructured	$	38,372	$	39,599	$	13,896

Interest income on loans is recognized on the accrual basis. The accrual of income on loans is discontinued when certain factors, such as contractual delinquency of 90 days or more, indicate reasonable doubt as to the timely collectability of such income. Additionally, uncollected interest previously recognized on non-accrual loans is reversed from interest income at the time the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Loans in default 90 days or more, as to their maturity date but not their payments, continue to accrue interest as long as the borrower continues to remit monthly payments.

CRITICIZED AND CLASSIFIED ASSETS

Our policy is to review our assets, focusing primarily on the loan portfolio, real estate owned and the investment portfolios, to ensure that the credit quality is maintained at the highest levels. When weaknesses are identified, immediate action is taken to correct the problem through direct contact with the borrower or issuer. We then monitor these assets and, in accordance with our policy and current regulatory guidelines, we designate them as “Special Mention,” which is considered a “Criticized Asset,” and “Substandard,” “Doubtful,” or “Loss,” which are considered “Classified Assets,” as deemed necessary. We designate an asset as Substandard when a well-defined weakness is identified that jeopardizes the orderly liquidation of the debt. We designate an asset as Doubtful when it displays the inherent weakness of a Substandard asset with the added provision that collection of the debt in full, on the basis of existing facts, is highly improbable. We designate an asset as Loss if it is deemed the debtor is incapable of repayment. Loans that are designated as Loss are charged to the Allowance for Loan Losses. Assets that are non-accrual are designated as Substandard, Doubtful or Loss. We designate an asset as Special Mention if the asset does not warrant designation within one of the other categories, but does contain a potential weakness that deserves closer attention. Our total Criticized and Classified assets were $323.5 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $0.2 million from $323.7 million at December 31, 2010.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

On a quarterly basis, all mortgage loans that are designated as Substandard or Doubtful are internally reviewed for impairment, based on updated cash flows for income producing properties or updated independent appraisals. The loan balances of collateral dependant impaired loans are then compared to the loans updated fair value. The balance which exceeds fair value is charged-off to the allowance for loan losses.

We designate investment securities as Substandard when the investment grade rating by one or more of the rating agencies is below investment grade. We have designated a total of 20 investment securities that are held at the Savings Bank as Substandard at June 30, 2011. Our classified investment securities at June 30, 2011 held by the Savings Bank include 16 private issue CMOs rated below investment grade by one or more of the rating agencies, three issues of pooled trust preferred securities, and one private issue trust preferred security. The Investment Securities which are classified as Substandard at June 30, 2011 are securities that were rated investment grade when we purchased them. These securities have each been subsequently downgraded by at least one rating agency to below investment grade. Through June 30, 2011, these securities, with the exception of two of the pooled trust preferred securities and five private issue CMOs, continued to pay interest and principal as scheduled. We test each of these securities quarterly for impairment, through an independent third party.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

We have established and maintain on our books an allowance for loan losses that is designed to provide a reserve against estimated losses inherent in our overall loan portfolio. The allowance is established through a provision for loan losses based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in the various components of the loan portfolio and other factors, including historical loan loss experience (which is updated quarterly), changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio, collection policies and experience, trends in the volume of non-accrual and classified loans and local and national economic conditions. The determination of the amount of the allowance for loan losses includes estimates that are susceptible to significant changes due to changes in appraisal values of collateral, national and local economic conditions and other factors. We incurred total net charge-offs of $3.1 million and $2.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $8.3 million and $4.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The national and regional economies were generally considered to be in a recession from December 2007 through the middle of 2009. This has resulted in increased unemployment and declining property values, although the property value declines in the New York City metropolitan area have not been as great as many other areas of the country. While the national and regional economies have shown signs of improvement since the second half of 2009, unemployment has remained at elevated levels. The deterioration in the economy has resulted in an elevated level of non-performing loans, which totaled $110.0 million at June 30, 2011 and $112.1 million at December 31, 2010. The Savings Bank’s underwriting standards generally require a loan-to-value ratio of no more than 75% at the time the loan is originated. At June 30, 2011, the average outstanding principal balance of our non-performing loans was 63.1% of the estimated current value of the supporting collateral, after considering the charge-offs that have been recorded. We have not been affected by the defaults of sub-prime mortgages as we do not originate, or hold in portfolio, sub-prime mortgages. A provision for loan losses of $5.0 million was recorded for both the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and of $10.0 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

We review our loan portfolio by separate categories with similar risk and collateral characteristics, e.g., multi-family residential, commercial real estate, one-to-four family mixed-use property, one-to-four family residential, co-operative apartment, construction, SBA, commercial business, taxi medallion and consumer loans. Impaired loans are segregated and reviewed separately. All non-accrual loans and TDRs are considered impaired. Impaired loans secured by real estate are reviewed based on the fair value of their collateral. In connection with the determination of the allowance, the market value of collateral ordinarily is evaluated by our staff appraiser. On a quarterly basis, the estimated values of impaired mortgage loans are internally reviewed, based on updated cash flows for income producing properties and, at times, an updated independent appraisal is obtained. The loan balances of collateral dependent impaired loans are then compared to the loans updated fair value. The balance which exceeds fair value is charged-off. We do not allocate additional reserves to loans which have written down to their fair value. When evaluating a loan for impairment, we do not rely on guarantees, and the amount of impairment, if any, is based on the fair value of the collateral. We do not carry loans at a value in excess of the fair value due to a guarantee from the borrower. Impaired mortgage loans that were written down resulted from quarterly reviews or updated appraisals that indicated the properties’ estimated value had declined from when the loan was originated. Loans classified as TDR are evaluated based on the projected discounted cash flow of the restructured loan at the loans effective interest rate prior to restructuring. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated in the amount by which the recorded investment in the TDR exceeds the discounted cash flow. For non-collateralized impaired loans, management estimates any recoveries that are anticipated for each loan. A portion of the allowance is allocated to non-collateralized based on these estimates. Based on the review of impaired loans, which includes loans classified as TDR, a portion of the allowance was allocated to impaired loans in the amount of $4.2 million and $15.9 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General provisions are established against performing loans in our portfolio in amounts deemed prudent by management. A portion of the allowance is allocated to the remaining portfolio based on historical loss experience. In the second quarter of 2011, the historical loss period used for this allocation was reduced to three years as there was sufficient data to make the experience factors from this period relevant and meaningful. In addition, a portion of the allowance is allocated based on current economic conditions, trends in delinquency and classified loans, and concentrations in the loan portfolio. Based on these reviews, management concluded the general portion of the allowance should be $25.1 million and $11.8 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, resulting in a total allowance of $29.4 million and $27.7 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The Board of Directors reviews and approves the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. Management has concluded, and the Board of Directors has concurred, that at June 30, 2011, the allowance was sufficient to absorb losses inherent in our loan portfolio.

The following table sets forth the activity in the Company's allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated:
