Flushing Financial Co.

Shareholders approved the election of 13 directors, the advisory say-on-pay, the 2026 Stock Incentive Plan and ratification of Deloitte & Touche.

The pending Flushing transaction will add ~30 branches and Warburg Pincus is expected to invest $225 million at closing, which management says should improve profitability metrics and speed New York expansion. OceanFirst plans further margin expansion, automation of routine processes and expects meaningful profitability progress over the next six to eight quarters. » More on finance.yahoo.com
