See notes to consolidated financial statements 4 THE FIRST OF LONG ISLAND CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY JUNE 30, 2001 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The First of Long Island Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island (collectively referred to as the "Corporation"). The consolidated financial information included herein as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods. The December 31, 2000 consolidated balance sheet was derived from the Company's December 31, 2000 audited consolidated financial statements. 5 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected the Corporation's financial condition and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements. The Corporation's financial condition and operating results principally reflect those of its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island (the "Bank"). The Corporation's primary service area is Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Long Island. Overview The Corporation earned $1.71 per share for the first half of 2001 as compared to $1.47 for the same period last year, an increase of approximately 16%. Based on net income of $4,985,000, the Corporation returned 1.58% on average total assets and 13.94% on average total equity. This compares to returns on assets and equity of 1.51% and 13.52%, respectively, for the same period last year. Total assets and deposits each grew by approximately 9% when comparing balances at June 30, 2001 to those at June 30, 2000. In addition, during this same time period and despite continued purchases under the Corporation's stock repurchase program, total capital before unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities grew by approximately 7%. The Corporation's capital ratios continue to substantially exceed the current regulatory criteria for a well-capitalized bank. The growth in earnings for the first half of 2001 when compared to the same period last year was primarily attributable to increases in service charge income, net interest margin, average checking balances, and average money market type savings balances. The positive impact of these factors was partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense, some of which is attributable to new branch offices opened during the latter part of 2000 and the early part of 2001. Net Interest Income Average Balance Sheet; Interest Rates and Interest Differential. The following table sets forth the average daily balances for each major category of assets, liabilities and stockholders' equity as well as the amounts and average rates earned or paid on each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. 6

(1) Tax-equivalent basis. Interest income on a tax-equivalent basis includes the additional amount of interest income that would have been earned if the Corporation's investment in tax-exempt loans and investment securities had been made in loans and investment securities subject to Federal income taxes yielding the same after-tax income. The tax-equivalent amount of $1.00 of nontaxable income was $1.52 in each period presented, based on a Federal income tax rate of 34%. (2) For the purpose of these computations, nonaccruing loans are included in the daily average loan amounts outstanding. (3) Includes official check and treasury tax and loan balances. 7 Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table sets forth the effect of changes in volumes, changes in rates, and changes in rate/volume on tax-equivalent interest income, interest expense and net interest income.

(1) Tax-equivalent basis. (2) Represents the change not solely attributable to change in rate or change in volume but a combination of these two factors. Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis increased by $1,576,000, or 11.6%, from $13,596,000 for the first half of 2000 to $15,172,000 for the same period this year. As can be seen from the above rate/volume analysis, the increase is primarily comprised of a positive volume variance of $1,289,000 and a positive rate variance of $319,000. The positive volume variance was largely caused by: (1) growth in average checking deposits and the use of such funds to purchase investment securities and originate loans; and (2) growth in money market type deposits and the use of such funds to increase the Bank's overnight position in federal funds sold and to purchase securities and originate loans. When comparing the first half of 2001 to the same period last year, average checking deposits increased by $12,822,000, or approximately 7.2%, and average savings and money market deposits increased by $30,516,000, or 10.4%. Although the checking increase was less than that experienced during the first half of recent prior years, it was nevertheless a significant contributing factor with respect to the six months' earnings growth. Funding interest-earning asset growth with growth in checking deposits has a greater impact on net interest income than funding such growth with interest-bearing deposits because checking deposits, unlike interest-bearing deposits, have no associated interest cost. This is the primary reason that the growth of checking balances has historically been one of the Corporation's key strategies for increasing earnings per share. The Bank's new business program is a significant factor that favorably impacted the growth in average checking balances noted when comparing the first half of 2001 to the 8 same period last year, and competitive pricing is a significant contributing factor with respect to the growth in average interest-bearing deposits noted during the same period. In addition, the growth in both checking and interest-bearing deposits is also believed to be attributable to the Bank's attention to customer service and local economic conditions. The Bank's net interest spread and yield increased from 3.57% and 4.98%, respectively, for the first half of 2000 to 3.87% and 5.09%, respectively, for the same period this year. It would appear that the principal cause of these increases was the significant decline in short-term interest rates experienced during the first half of 2001. During this period, both the federal funds target rate and the Bank's prime lending rate decreased by 275 basis points. As more fully discussed in the Market Risk section of this discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, a decline in interest rates should initially have a positive impact on net interest income. However, over the longer term, the impact should be negative. Allowance and Provision For Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses was virtually unchanged during the first half of 2001, amounting to $1,951,000 at June 30, 2001 as compared to $1,943,000 at December 31, 2000. The allowance represented approximately 1% of total loans at each date. During the first half of 2001, the Bank recorded loan chargeoffs and recoveries of $7,000 and $15,000, respectively. The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management currently believes will be adequate to absorb estimated inherent losses in the Bank's loan portfolio. Because the process for estimating credit losses and determining the allowance for loan losses as of any balance sheet date is subjective in nature and requires material estimates, there is not an exact amount but rather a range for what constitutes an appropriate allowance. In estimating a range the Bank selectively reviews individual credits in its portfolio and, for those loans deemed to be impaired, measures impairment losses based on either the fair value of collateral or the discounted value of expected future cash flows. Losses for loans that are not specifically reviewed are determined on a pooled basis taking into account a variety of factors including historical losses; levels of and trends in delinquencies and nonaccruing loans; trends in volume and terms of loans; changes in lending policies and procedures; experience, ability and depth of lending staff; national and local economic conditions; concentrations of credit; and environmental risks. Management also considers relevant loan loss statistics for the Bank's peer group. The amount of future chargeoffs and provisions for loan losses will be affected by, among other things, economic conditions on Long Island. Such conditions affect the financial strength of the Bank's borrowers and the value of real estate collateral securing the Bank's mortgage loans. In addition, future provisions and chargeoffs could be affected by environmental impairment of properties securing the Bank's mortgage loans. Loans secured by real estate represent approximately 78% of total loans outstanding at June 30, 2001. Environmental audits for commercial mortgages were instituted by the Bank in 1987. Under the Bank's current policy, an environmental audit is required on practically all commercial-type properties that are considered for a mortgage loan. At the present time, the Bank is not aware of any existing loans in the portfolio where there is environmental pollution originating on the mortgaged properties that would materially affect the value of the portfolio. 9 Asset Quality The Corporation has identified certain assets as risk elements. These assets include nonaccruing loans, foreclosed real estate, loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments and still accruing and troubled debt restructurings. These assets present more than the normal risk that the Corporation will be unable to eventually collect or realize their full carrying value. The Corporation's risk elements at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 are as follows: June 30, December 31, 2001 2000 ----------- ----------- (dollars in thousands) Nonaccruing loans ................................. $ 121 $ -- Foreclosed real estate ............................ -- -- ----------- ----------- Total nonperforming assets ...................... 121 -- Troubled debt restructurings ...................... -- -- Loans past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments and still accruing 225 173 ----------- ----------- Total risk elements ............................. $ 346 $ 173 =========== =========== Nonaccruing loans as a percentage of total loans .. .06% .00% =========== =========== Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans and foreclosed real estate ...................... .06% .00% =========== =========== Risk elements as a percentage of total loans and foreclosed real estate .......................... .17% .09% =========== =========== Noninterest Income, Noninterest Expense, and Income Taxes Noninterest income consists primarily of service charges on deposit accounts and Trust Department income. Service charge income increased by $376,000, or 27.1%, from $1,388,000 for the first half of 2000 to $1,764,000 for the same period this year. The increase, which is largely comprised of increases in overdraft check charges and maintenance/activity charges, is largely attributable to revisions made to the Bank's service charge schedule in the third quarter of 2000 and the implementation during the current period of more stringent criteria with respect to fee waivers. Noninterest expense is comprised of salaries, employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expense and other operating expenses incurred in supporting the various business activities of the Corporation. Noninterest expense increased by $1,011,000, or 11.6%, from $8,720,000 for the first half of 2000 to $9,731,000 for the same period this year. The increase is comprised of an increase in salaries of $423,000, or 10.5%, an increase in employee benefits expense of $219,000, or 14.1%, an increase in occupancy and equipment expense of $155,000, or 12.3%, and an increase in other operating expenses of $214,000, or 11.3%. The increase in salaries is attributable to normal annual salary adjustments, filling of staff, and additions to staff resulting from, among other things, the opening of three new branch offices in the latter part of 2000 and one new branch office in the early part of 2001. The increase in employee benefits expense is largely attributable to the increased number of employees and revisions made to the Bank's incentive compensation program. Increases in depreciation expense, maintenance costs, and computer processing costs, a 10 portion of which resulted from new branch openings and new technology, and increased consulting expense are the larger items that account for the increases in occupancy and equipment expense and other operating expenses. Income tax expense as a percentage of book income was 26.3% for the first half of 2001 as compared to 27.3% for the same period last year. These percentages vary from the statutory Federal income tax rate of 34% primarily because of state income taxes and tax-exempt interest on municipal securities. The decrease in the percentage for 2001 is primarily attributable to an increase in the amount of tax-exempt income on municipal securities and increased funding by the Bank of its REIT (real estate investment trust) and investment subsidiaries. Results of Operations - Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 Versus June 30, 2000 Net income for the second quarter of 2001 was $2,650,000, or $.91 per share, as compared to $2,208,000, or $.74 per share, earned for the same quarter last year. The primary reasons for the 23% increase in earnings per share are substantially the same as those discussed with respect to the six-month periods. Although earnings increased in both the first and second quarters of 2001, the second quarter increase was larger because, among other things, declining interest rates had a greater positive impact on second quarter net interest income. The second quarter not only benefited from the full impact of the rate reductions which occurred in the first quarter, but also benefited from further rate reductions made in the second quarter. Capital Under current regulatory capital standards, banks are classified as well capitalized, adequately capitalized or undercapitalized. The Corporation's capital management policy is designed to build and maintain capital levels that exceed the minimum requirements for a well-capitalized bank. The following table sets forth the Corporation's capital ratios at June 30, 2001 and the minimum ratios necessary to be classified as well capitalized and adequately capitalized. The Corporation's capital ratios at June 30, 2001 substantially exceed the requirements for a well-capitalized bank.

Total stockholders' equity increased by $2,267,000, or from $70,866,000 at December 31, 2000 to $73,133,000 at June 30, 2001. The increase in stockholders' equity is primarily attributable to the combined effect of net income of $4,985,000, unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities of $411,000, stock repurchases amounting to $2,305,000, and cash dividends of $1,082,000. Stock Repurchase Program. Since 1988, the Corporation has had a stock repurchase program under which it can purchase, from time to time, shares of its own common stock in market or private transactions. Under plans previously approved by the Board of Directors, the Corporation purchased 58,830 shares thus far in 2001 and can purchase 58,196 shares in the future. 11 The stock repurchase program has been used by management to enhance earnings per share and return on average stockholders' equity. When comparing the first half of 2001 to the same period last year, earnings per share are up 24 cents. Of the 24-cent increase, approximately 3 cents is attributable to shares repurchased in 2000 and thus far this year. On a full-year basis, these repurchases should add approximately 9 cents to earnings per share. Cash Flows and Liquidity Cash Flows. During the first six months of 2001, cash and cash equivalents increased by $25,370,000. As shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows, this occurred primarily because the cash provided by operations and deposit growth exceeded the cash used for loan growth, investment securities growth, cash dividends, and stock repurchases. The deposit growth, which amounted to $45,192,000, is primarily attributable to growth in money market type balances, checking balances, and IOLA balances (interest on lawyer accounts). Liquidity. The Corporation's primary sources of liquidity are its overnight position in federal funds sold, its short-term investment securities portfolio which generally consists of securities purchased to mature within one year and securities with average lives of one year or less, maturities and monthly payments on the balance of the investment securities portfolio and the loan portfolio, and investment securities designated as available-for-sale. At June 30, 2001, the Corporation had $108,800,000 in federal funds sales, a short-term securities portfolio of $29,135,000, and available-for-sale securities of $96,525,000. The Corporation's liquidity is enhanced by its stable deposit base which primarily consists of checking, savings, and money market accounts. Such accounts comprised 93.5% of total deposits at June 30, 2001, while time deposits of $100,000 and over and other time deposits comprised only 2.2% and 4.3%, respectively. The Bank attracts all of its deposits through its banking offices primarily from the communities in which those banking offices are located and does not rely on brokered deposits. In addition, the Bank has not historically relied on purchased or borrowed funds as sources of liquidity. Market Risk The Bank invests in interest-earning assets which are funded by interest-bearing deposits, noninterest-bearing deposits, and capital. The Bank's results of operations are subject to risk resulting from interest rate fluctuations generally and having assets and liabilities that have different maturity, repricing, and prepayment/withdrawal characteristics. The Bank defines interest rate risk as the risk that the Bank's earnings and/or net portfolio value will change when interest rates change. The principal objective of the Bank's asset/liability management activities is to maximize net interest income while at the same time maintain acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risk and facilitate the funding needs of the Bank. During the first six months of 2001, there was a significant decrease in short-term interest rates as evidenced by a 275 basis point reduction in both the federal funds target rate and the Bank's prime lending rate. In addition, rates on intermediate term securities and loans also decreased but by lesser amounts. Because the Bank's loans and investment securities generally reprice slower than its interest-bearing deposit accounts, a decrease in interest rates should initially have a positive impact on the Bank's net interest 12 income. However, since approximately 39% of the Bank's average interest-earning assets are funded by noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital, if rates are sustained at the lower levels and the Bank purchases securities and originates loans at yields lower than those maturing and reprices loans at lower yields, the eventual impact on net interest income should be negative. The reverse should be true of an increase in interest rates. It is believed that the Corporation's exposure to interest rate risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2000. Legislation Commercial checking deposits currently account for approximately 26% of the Bank's total deposits. Congress is considering legislation that would allow customers to cover checks by sweeping funds from interest-bearing deposit accounts each business day and repeal the prohibition of the payment of interest on corporate checking deposits in the future. Although management currently believes that the Bank's earnings could be more severely impacted by permitting the payment of interest on corporate checking deposits than the daily sweeping of funds from interest-bearing accounts to cover checks, either could have a material adverse impact on the Bank's future results of operations. Forward Looking Statements "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contains various forward-looking statements with respect to financial performance and business matters. Such statements are generally contained in sentences including the words "expect" or "could" or "should" or "would". The Corporation cautions that these forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, and therefore actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. In addition, the Corporation assumes no duty to update forward-looking statements. 13 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. NONE ITEM 2. NONE ITEM 3. NONE ITEM 4.
