Briefing
Reported strong first quarter results driven by margin expansion and industry-leading operating efficiency.
ConnectOne Bancorp reported a net income of $33.0 million for Q1 2021, a significant increase compared to $25.6 million in Q4 2020 and $6.0 million in Q1 2020. The diluted earnings per share were $0.82, up from $0.64 in the previous quarter and $0.15 in the same quarter last year.
