Fort Lee, NJ  -  Bancorp of New Jersey, Inc. (NYSE-AMEX:  BKJ), the holding company of Bank of New Jersey, reported its finest quarterly net income since opening in May, 2006.  Net income for the first quarter of 2011 reached $638 thousand compared to $514 thousand for the first quarter of 2010, representing an increase of $124 thousand, or approximately 24.1%.  Earnings per diluted share reached $0.12 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $0.10 per diluted share for the same period in 2010.  The net income generated during the first quarter of 2011 represents the highest net income ever achieved by the company during any fiscal quarter.  The net income generated during this quarter also represents the company’s seventeenth consecutive quarter of profitability.

During the first quarter of 2011, net interest income increased by 19.4%, or approximately $583 thousand, to $3.6 million from $3.0 million for the first quarter of 2010.  Offsetting the increased net interest income were an increase in non-interest expense of approximately $238 thousand, or 12.8% and an increase in the provision for loan losses of approximately $116 thousand.  The increase in non-interest expense primarily reflected increases in operating costs as well as increased expenses related to other real estate owned.  The increase in the provision for loan losses is the result of greater loan growth and other factors considered in the company’s allowance for loan losses methodology to ensure the allowance is maintained at an adequate level.
