Negative trends in forecast factors coupled with an increase in loans receivable contributed to an increase in reserves for collectively evaluated loans during the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Total non-interest expenses were up 3.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from the same period in 2024, increasing from $11,227,000 to $11,590,000. The increase was primarily due to increases in consulting fees, which was partially offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits. The increase in consulting fees was primarily due to staffing searches. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits was primarily due to decreases in stock compensation, contingent compensation and profit sharing expense, which was partially offset by an increase in group insurance expense.
