ConnectOne Bancorp completed a significant multifamily loan sale that reduced its commercial real estate risk and improved its credit profile by lowering rent-stabilized exposure to 2% of assets. The bank reported better-than-expected Q3 core earnings, supported by net interest margin expansion and strong deposit growth, indicating ongoing profitability. This transaction also brought the bank's commercial real estate concentration below regulatory limits. The analyst maintains a Buy rating, expecting 2024 earnings per share around $3.65 and potential stock price growth as the company trades near 10 times earnings.
