North Fork Bancorporation, Inc. (NYSE: NFB) announced today that
S&P affirmed its ratings and revised its outlook to Positive.
An excerpt from the S&P release is as follows: "Standard &
Poor's Ratings Services said today that it affirmed its ratings on
Long Island, N.Y.- based North Fork Bancorp and its subsidiaries,
including its 'BBB+/A-2' counterparty credit rating on North Fork.
At the same time, the outlook was revised to positive from stable."
The outlook revision acknowledged the smooth integration of the
October 2004 GreenPoint Financial acquisition, and positive
momentum for the company's core deposit and loan growth.
"GreenPoint doubled North Fork's asset base; strengthened its
franchise with leading deposit market shares in Suffolk, Nassau,
and Queens counties; and complemented its commercial-oriented
focus," according to S&P. The release noted the positive impact
on geographic diversity that GreenPoint's national mortgage banking
subsidiary had on North Fork. The release also cited the company's
continued strong asset quality and the successful incorporation of
GreenPoint's mortgage bank into its consolidated corporate
strategy. S&P concluded by identifying the following factors
which could lead to a rating upgrade: "If asset quality and
improved capital measures are maintained, and earnings trends
remain good, ratings could be raised." Complete ratings information
is available to subscribers of RatingsDirect, Standard & Poor's
Web-based credit analysis system, at www.ratingsdirect.com. All
ratings affected by this rating action can be found on Standard
& Poor's public Web site at www.standardandpoors.com. North
Fork is a regional bank holding company headquartered in New York
with approximately $60 billion in assets conducting commercial and
retail banking from 360 branch locations in the Tri-State area with
a complementary national mortgage banking business.
