Current report

Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment increased by $4,000, or less than 1%, to $21.49 million at both June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024. The modest increase reflects capitalized additions related to facility improvements and equipment purchases during the period, which were largely offset by scheduled depreciation expense.

Current report

Other Assets: Other assets increased $1.05 million, or 16.87% to $7.30 million at June 30, 2025 from $6.24 million at September 30, 2024. This was due to a $724,000 balance due from the SBA and a $397,000 increase in federal income tax benefit.

Current report

The shift in the deposit mix toward higher-cost funding sources, such as certificates of deposits, reflects continued competitive pricing pressures in the market and customer preferences for higher-yielding deposit products amid the current interest rate environment. Conversely, balances in non-interest-bearing and money market accounts declined, contributing to a modest increase in the Company’s overall cost of deposits.

Current report

At June 30, 2025, the loan-to-deposit ratio was approximately 86.39%, unchanged from September 30, 2024, reflecting continued disciplined loan growth largely funded by core deposit activity. Management continues to monitor deposit pricing and mix in the context of liquidity management and efforts to support net interest income and profitability.

Current report

Substandard loans increased $23.94 million to $32.37 million at June 30, 2025 from $8.43 million at September 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2025, substandard loans are 1.55% of total loans receivable. The increase is primarily a result of downgrading three relationships that were previously classified watch and special mention. The loans are not classified as non-accrual and were performing according to their repayment terms.

Current report

Total interest and dividend income increased $5.88 million, or 8.42%, to $75.67 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from $69.79 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to increases in the average yield and average balance of loans receivable, the average balance of interest bearing deposits in bank and CDs held for investment and a higher average yield on investment securities. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of investment securities and a decrease in the average yield on interest-bearing deposits in banks and CDs held for investment.

Current report

Total interest expense increased by $1.69 million, or 7.6%, to $23.86 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from $22.17 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in interest expense was due to an increase in the average cost of interest bearing liabilities and an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $58.86 million, or 4.9%, to $1.26 billion for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from $1.20 billion for the nine months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to increases in the average balances of certificates of deposit and money market accounts, partially offset by decreases in NOW checking and savings accounts. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 2.53% for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from 2.46% for the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

Current report

Total non-interest income for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 increased 55,000, or 0.7%, to $8.26 million from $8.20 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The modest increase reflects offsetting movements across several components. The primary reasons for the increase were a $115,000 increase in gain on sales of loans, a $64,000 increase in servicing income on loans sold and a $32,000 increase in BOLI net earnings. These increases were largely offset by a $100,000 decrease in service charges on deposits, reflecting continued moderation in customer overdraft activity, and a $67,000 decrease in ATM and debit card interchange fees consistent with lower card-based transaction volume.

Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment decreased by $50,000, or 0.2%, to $21.44 million at March 31, 2025 from $21.49 million at September 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to scheduled depreciation.

Other Assets: Other assets increased $3.09 million, or 33.4% to $9.33 million at March 31, 2025 from $6.24 million at September 30, 2024.

Previous report

Total non-interest income for the six months ended March 31, 2025 decreased $29,000, or 0.5%, to $5.38 million from $5.41 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to a $53,000 decrease in service charges on deposits and a $33,000 decrease in ATM and debit card interchange fees. These decreases were partially offset by a $45,000 increase in gain on sale of loans and a $19,000 increase in BOLI net earnings.

Previous wording

The provision for (recapture of) credit losses is dependent on changes in the loan portfolio and management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan portfolio as well as prevailing economic and market conditions. The ACL on loans reflects the amount that management has determined is adequate to cover probable expected credit losses in the loan portfolio. As the loan portfolio increases, or due to an increase in probable expected losses inherent in the loan portfolio, the ACL may increase, resulting in a decrease to net interest income after the provision. Improvement in loan risk ratings, increase in property values, or receipts of recoveries of amounts previously charged off may partially or fully offset any required increases to the ACL on loans due to loan growth or an increase in the probable expected credit losses. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $237,000 and $289,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025, respectively, primarily due to changes in the composition of the portfolio. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $166,000 and $545,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $351,000 and $640,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, due to loan portfolio growth and the annual update of model assumptions. The annual update of model assumptions reflects routine adjustments to key inputs used in the credit loss estimation process, including changes in economic forecasts, historical loss experience, prepayment speeds, and other risk factors that influence expected credit losses under the Company's current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $264,000 and $810,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.

Previous wording

Net income is also impacted by levels of non-interest income and non-interest expense. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2025, non-interest income consisted primarily of service charges on deposit accounts, gain on sales of loans, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, BOLI net earnings, servicing income on loans sold, escrow fees and other operating income. Non-interest income may also be affected by net recoveries on investment securities and the reversal of previously recognized OTTI losses, if applicable. Additionally, it is reduced by valuation allowances on loan servicing rights and increased by recoveries of such allowances, when recognized. Non-interest expense for the same periods primarily included salaries and employee benefits, premises and equipment costs, advertising, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, postage and courier expenses, state and local taxes, professional fees, FDIC insurance premiums, loan administration and foreclosure-related expenses, technology and communications expenses, deposit operation expenses, amortization of CDI, and other general operating expenses. In certain periods, non-interest expense may be offset by gains on the sale of premises and equipment or OREO. Both non-interest income and non-interest expense are influenced by the Company’s overall growth and the expansion of its loan and deposit account base.
