```markdown Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION [Item 1. Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited)](index=3&type=section&id=Item%201.%20Consolidated%20Interim%20Financial%20Statements%20(Unaudited)) The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements for TrustCo Bank Corp NY as of September 30, 2020, show a year-over-year decrease in net income and comprehensive income for both the third quarter and the first nine months. Total assets, loans, and deposits grew compared to year-end 2019, while the allowance for loan losses was increased, reflecting the economic environment. The company's capital ratios remain strong and well above regulatory requirements [Consolidated Statements of Income](index=3&type=section&id=Consolidated%20Statements%20of%20Income) For the third quarter of 2020, net income was $14.1 million, a decrease from $14.7 million in the same period of 2019. For the nine-month period, net income fell to $38.6 million from $43.9 million year-over-year. The decline was primarily driven by a decrease in net interest income and a $5.0 million provision for loan losses in 2020, compared to a credit for loan losses in 2019 | Metric (in thousands, except per share) | Q3 2020 | Q3 2019 | Nine Months 2020 | Nine Months 2019 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Net Interest Income | $38,165 | $38,643 | $114,399 | $117,566 | | Provision for Loan Losses | $1,000 | $- | $5,000 | $(41) | | **Net Income** | **$14,071** | **$14,708** | **$38,638** | **$43,933** | | Diluted EPS | $0.146 | $0.152 | $0.400 | $0.453 | [Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition](index=5&type=section&id=Consolidated%20Statements%20of%20Financial%20Condition) As of September 30, 2020, total assets increased to $5.74 billion from $5.22 billion at the end of 2019. This growth was primarily fueled by a significant rise in cash and cash equivalents (from $457 million to $956 million) and an increase in net loans. Total deposits also saw substantial growth, rising to $4.90 billion from $4.45 billion over the same period | Metric (in thousands) | Sep 30, 2020 | Dec 31, 2019 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Total Cash and Cash Equivalents | $956,319 | $456,846 | | Net Loans | $4,165,432 | $4,017,879 | | **Total Assets** | **$5,735,929** | **$5,221,322** | | Total Deposits | $4,899,050 | $4,450,016 | | Total Shareholders' Equity | $560,528 | $538,257 | [Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows](index=7&type=section&id=Consolidated%20Statements%20of%20Cash%20Flows) For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the company experienced a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $499.5 million, a significant reversal from the $53.0 million decrease in the prior-year period. This was driven by strong cash inflows from financing activities, primarily a $449.0 million net increase in deposits, which far outpaced the net cash used in investing activities | Cash Flow Activity (in thousands) | Nine Months Ended Sep 30, 2020 | Nine Months Ended Sep 30, 2019 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Net Cash from Operating Activities | $47,906 | $49,771 | | Net Cash used in Investing Activities | $(19,013) | $(261,063) | | Net Cash from Financing Activities | $470,580 | $158,260 | | **Net Increase (Decrease) in Cash** | **$499,473** | **$(53,032)** | [Notes to Consolidated Interim Financial Statements](index=8&type=section&id=Notes%20to%20Consolidated%20Interim%20Financial%20Statements) The notes provide detailed information on the company's financial position and performance. Key areas include the composition of the loan portfolio, which grew to $4.21 billion, and the related allowance for loan losses, which increased to $49.1 million due to a $5.0 million provision. The company provided significant COVID-19 related loan deferrals, which decreased from $190 million at June 30 to $7 million by September 30, 2020. The company's capital ratios remain well above regulatory minimums, classifying it as 'well capitalized' - Total loans grew to **$4.21 billion** as of September 30, 2020, up from **$4.06 billion** at year-end 2019, with first mortgages on 1-to-4 family properties comprising the largest portion of the portfolio at **$3.65 billion**[45](index=45&type=chunk) - The allowance for loan losses increased to **$49.1 million** at September 30, 2020, from **$44.3 million** at the beginning of the year, primarily due to a **$5.0 million** provision for loan losses[56](index=56&type=chunk) - COVID-19 related loan modifications and payment deferrals totaled approximately **$7 million** as of September 30, 2020, a significant reduction from approximately **$190 million** as of June 30, 2020, as many loans returned to regular payment schedules[75](index=75&type=chunk)[123](index=123&type=chunk) - As of September 30, 2020, the Bank was categorized as '**well capitalized**' under the regulatory framework, with all capital ratios significantly exceeding the minimum requirements[116](index=116&type=chunk)[117](index=117&type=chunk) [Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations](index=41&type=section&id=Item%202.%20Management's%20Discussion%20and%20Analysis%20of%20Financial%20Condition%20and%20Results%20of%20Operations) Management attributes the slight decrease in Q3 2020 net income to a compressed net interest margin (2.73% vs. 3.04% in Q3 2019) and a $1.0 million provision for loan losses due to COVID-19 uncertainty. These negative impacts were partially offset by a $1.4 million reduction in noninterest expenses. The balance of COVID-related loan deferrals dropped sharply from $190 million in Q2 to $7 million in Q3. The company maintained strong capital and liquidity, and continued to grow its loan and deposit portfolios [COVID-19 Impact](index=43&type=section&id=COVID-19%20Impact) The company actively managed the impact of COVID-19 by providing loan deferrals, which saw a significant decrease from 752 loans totaling $189.7 million at June 30, 2020, to just 30 loans totaling $7.2 million at September 30, 2020. Additionally, the company participated in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), processing 663 loans totaling $45.7 million | COVID-19 Loan Deferrals | June 30, 2020 | September 30, 2020 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Number of Loans | 752 | 30 | | Outstanding Balance | $189.7 million | $7.2 million | - As of September 30, 2020, the company had processed **663** Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans totaling **$45.7 million**[142](index=142&type=chunk) [Financial Overview and Net Interest Income](index=49&type=section&id=Financial%20Overview%20and%20Net%20Interest%20Income) Q3 2020 net income was $14.1 million, down slightly from $14.7 million in Q3 2019. The key driver of this change was a 31 basis point decline in the net interest margin to 2.73%, caused by a sharp drop in yields on interest-earning assets, particularly Federal Funds, which outpaced the reduction in deposit costs. Average interest-earning assets grew by $501.2 million year-over-year - The taxable equivalent net interest margin for Q3 2020 was **2.73%**, a decrease of **31 basis points** from **3.04%** in Q3 2019[156](index=156&type=chunk)[164](index=164&type=chunk) - The margin compression was primarily due to a **209 basis point** decrease in the average yield on Federal Funds sold and other short-term investments, coupled with a **32 basis point** drop in the average loan portfolio yield[164](index=164&type=chunk) - The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased by **42 basis points** to **0.52%** in Q3 2020, partially offsetting the decline in asset yields[164](index=164&type=chunk) [Nonperforming Assets and Allowance for Loan Losses](index=55&type=section&id=Nonperforming%20Assets%20and%20Allowance%20for%20Loan%20Losses) Nonperforming loans (NPLs) remained relatively stable at $21.8 million at September 30, 2020. The allowance for loan losses increased to $49.1 million, or 1.17% of total loans, up from 1.09% at year-end 2019. A provision for loan losses of $1.0 million was recorded in Q3 2020, primarily due to economic uncertainty from COVID-19 | Metric | Sep 30, 2020 | Dec 31, 2019 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Nonperforming Loans | $21.8 million | $20.9 million | | Allowance for Loan Losses | $49.1 million | $44.3 million | | Allowance as % of Loans | 1.17% | 1.09% | - The provision for loan losses was **$1.0 million** for Q3 2020, compared to no provision in Q3 2019, reflecting increased economic uncertainty[197](index=197&type=chunk) [Noninterest Income and Expense](index=59&type=section&id=Noninterest%20Income%20and%20Expense) For Q3 2020, noninterest income decreased to $4.3 million from $4.9 million in the prior year. Noninterest expenses showed improvement, declining by $1.4 million to $22.7 million, primarily due to an $826 thousand decrease in salaries and employee benefits, reflecting successful cost control measures - Total noninterest income for Q3 2020 was **$4.3 million**, a decrease from **$4.9 million** in Q3 2019[205](index=205&type=chunk) - Total noninterest expenses decreased by **$1.4 million** year-over-year to **$22.7 million** in Q3 2020, largely driven by lower salaries and benefits expense[207](index=207&type=chunk) [Capital Resources](index=60&type=section&id=Capital%20Resources) The company maintained a strong capital position, with total shareholders' equity rising to $560.5 million. All capital ratios for both the Bank and the consolidated company significantly exceeded the levels required to be considered 'well-capitalized'. The company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.068125 per share, resulting in a dividend payout ratio of 46.68% - Both TrustCo and Trustco Bank's capital levels exceeded the minimum standards to be considered '**well-capitalized**' as of September 30, 2020[212](index=212&type=chunk)[214](index=214&type=chunk)[215](index=215&type=chunk) - A dividend of **$0.068125 per share** was declared in Q3 2020, representing a payout ratio of **46.68%** of net income[211](index=211&type=chunk) - The company's share repurchase program was suspended in **April 2020** and expired in **June 2020**.

Management actively responds to changes in interest rates to meet earnings goals while positioning for future rate shifts.
