Current report
Loans. Loans receivable, net, increased $29.2 million, or 3.7%, to $826.4 million at September 30, 2025 from $797.2 million at June 30, 2025, driven by a net growth in residential mortgage loans of $12.5 million and a net growth in total commercial loans of $16.0 million, in each case as a result of strong market demand due to the lower rate environment.
Current report
Noninterest income decreased $236,000, or 29.5%, to $565,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $801,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in other income of $123,000 and a decrease in service charges and fees of $66,000 primarily due to a lower volume of account fees and card charges incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Current report
Noninterest expense increased $275,000, or 4.0%, to $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, due to a $613,000, or 18.9%, increase in salaries and employee benefits expense primarily driven by stock awards granted to non-employee directors and certain officers and employees of the Company after September 30, 2024. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was offset by a decrease of $210,000 in other expenses, driven by a decrease of $71,000 in the amortization expense of fair value adjustments resulting from the acquisition of Regal Bank in September 2023, a decrease of $96,000 in occupancy expenses due to the closure of a retail branch location and a decrease of $89,000 in data processing fees.

Loans. Loans receivable, net, increased $48.9 million, or 6.7%, to $780.8 million at March 31, 2025 from $731.9 million at June 30, 2024, driven by an increase in residential mortgage loans of $19.2 million and an increase in multi-family commercial loans of $28.3 million through an increased emphasis on this type of lending. Commercial loans (consisting of multi-family and commercial real estate loans and commercial and industrial loans) accounted for 45.5% of loans at March 31, 2025. For further information about our loans, see "Lending Activities" below.

Noninterest income increased $25,000, or 4.8%, to $541,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $516,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily as a result of an increase of $37,000 in service charges and fees, offset by a decrease of $19,000 in realized gain on sale of investments.
Previous report
Noninterest expense decreased $509,000, or 6.7%, to $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, due to a $399,000, or 42.0%, decrease in data processing expenses, as the 2024 period included $242,000 of one-time deconversion fees related to the Merger, and a $215,000, or 27.8%, decrease in occupancy expenses driven by the consolidation of branch offices, offset by an increase in professional fees of $110,000 primarily due to the costs of becoming compliant with the additional audit and reporting requirements under FDICIA, attendant with exceeding the $1 billion asset threshold.

General. Net income increased $10.7 million, or 137.4%, to $2.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from a net loss of $7.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024. Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 included $2.4 million of net accretion income related to fair value adjustments resulting from the Merger. Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 included a $5.4 million charitable contribution and $4.1 million of merger-related costs, offset by $2.9 million of net accretion income related to fair value adjustments.
Previous report
Interest Income. Interest income increased $5.0 million, or 17.0%, to $34.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from $29.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 due to a 22 basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets and a $103.2 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. The increase resulted from a $7.3 million, or 30.8%, increase in interest income on loans due to the increased size of the loan portfolio, largely as a result of the Merger as well as subsequent loan growth, and a higher average yield on the loan portfolio due to higher market rates and an increased proportion of higher-yielding commercial real estate loans, offset by a $641,000 decrease in interest income on securities, and a $1.7 million decrease in interest income from other interest-earning assets, in each case due to lower average balances and a lower interest rate environment. The decrease in interest income on securities was due to a $48.4 million decrease in the average balance of securities, resulting primarily from the sale of $35.4 million of lower-yielding securities in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 as part of a balance sheet repositioning, that resulted in only a three basis point decrease in the average yield on securities notwithstanding the lower interest rate environment.
Previous report
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $4.4 million, or 55.1%, to $12.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from $8.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 primarily due to a $3.0 million increase in interest expense on demand accounts. Interest expense on interest-bearing demand deposits increased due to an increase of $107.9 million in the average balance and an increase of 126 basis points in the cost of interest-bearing deposits to 1.63% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from 0.37% for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 as the Bank raised rates on certain interest-bearing deposit products in an effort to remain competitive in the market area. Interest expense on certificates of deposit increased $1.3 million as the average balance on certificates of deposit increased $34.0 million, or 14.0%, to $275.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from $241.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 due to the highly competitive interest rate environment in our market area. Interest expense on borrowings also increased by $135,000 due to a higher average outstanding balance and higher average rates paid.
Previous report
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $585,000, or 2.7%, to $22.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from $21.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024. Net interest rate spread decreased 40 basis points to 2.34% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from 2.74% for the nine months ended March 31, 2024. Net interest margin decreased 25 basis points to 2.93% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from 3.18% for the nine months ended March 31, 2024.

The decreases in the Bank’s net interest rate spread and net interest margin were primarily a result of the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increasing at a higher rate than the yield on interest-earning assets.

Noninterest income increased $571,000, or 41.0%, to $2.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 from $1.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024, primarily as a result of an increase of $206,000 in service charges and fees, and a $128,000 increase in the cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance resulting from an increase in the average balance of the underlying assets, for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2024.

Income Tax Expense. The provision for income taxes was $776,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, compared to a benefit of $1.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024, resulting from a net operating loss due to Merger related expenses.

The net proceeds from the offering significantly increased our capital resources. Our financial condition and results of operations were enhanced by the net proceeds from the offering, resulting in increased net interest-earning assets and net interest income. However, due to the increase in equity resulting from the net proceeds raised in the offering, our return on equity was adversely affected following the offering until such excess funds can be deployed.

Previous wording
Allowance for Credit Losses: The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”), calculated in accordance with ASC 326, is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans. The ACL represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb the lifetime expected credit losses that may be experienced on outstanding loans at the balance sheet date based on the evaluation of the size and current risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions and prepayment experience. The allowance for credit losses is measured and recorded upon the initial recognition of a financial asset. Determination of the adequacy of the allowance is inherently complex and requires the use of significant and highly subjective estimates. Loans are charged-off against the allowance when deemed uncollectible by management. Adjustments to the allowance are reported in our income statement as a component of the provision for credit losses.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Our intangible assets consist of goodwill and core deposit intangibles. The initial recording of goodwill and other intangible assets requires subjective judgments concerning estimates of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to annual tests for impairment, or more often if events or circumstances indicate it may be impaired. We may elect to perform a qualitative assessment as a part of the annual impairment test. If the qualitative assessment indicates it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, or if we elect not to perform a qualitative assessment, then we would be required to perform a quantitative test for goodwill impairment. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit less than the carrying value, goodwill is impaired and is written down to its estimated fair value.

Our allowance for credit losses ("ACL") is maintained at a level necessary to absorb the lifetime expected credit losses. Management, in determining the allowance for credit losses, considers the losses in our loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of loan activities, along with the general economic and real estate market conditions. A description of our methodology in establishing our allowance for credit losses is set forth in the section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of SR Bancorp—Critical Accounting Policies-Allowance for Credit Losses” in our Form 10-K as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024 and in this Form 10-Q. The allowance for credit losses as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024 were maintained at levels that represent management’s best estimate of current expected losses in the loan portfolio. However, this analysis process is inherently subjective, as it requires us to make estimates that are susceptible to revisions as more information becomes available. Although we believe that we have established the allowance at levels to absorb current expected losses, future additions may be necessary if economic or other conditions in the future differ from the current environment.

The decrease resulted from a $513,000, or 51.1%, decrease in interest income on interest bearing deposits at other banks and a $179,000, or 23.0%, decrease in interest income on securities, partially offset by a $527,000, or 5.4%, increase in interest income on loans. The increase in the interest income on loans was due to a $71.5 million increase in the average balance of loans from $707.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $778.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, offset in part by a 23 basis point decrease in the yield on loans in a lower interest rate environment. The decrease in interest income on securities was due to a $48.2 million decrease in the average balance of securities resulting primarily from the sale of $35.4 million of lower-yielding securities in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 as part of a balance sheet repositioning, which resulted in a two basis point increase in the yield notwithstanding the lower interest rate environment.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $919,000, or 27.2%, to $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, due to a $981,000 increase in interest expense on interest-bearing demand deposits and a $156,000 increase in interest expense on borrowings, offset in part by a decrease in interest expense on certificates of deposit of $203,000 primarily resulting from a 28 basis point decrease in the average rate. The increase in interest expense on interest-bearing demand deposits was due to an increase of $101.5 million, or 49.9%, in the average balance and an increase of 106 basis points in the cost of interest-bearing deposits to 1.75% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from 0.69% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as the Bank raised rates on certain interest-bearing deposit products in an effort to remain competitive in the market area.

Current wording
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $467,000, or 12.1%, to $4.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024,due to a $55.1 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities and an nine basis point increase in the cost. The increase in the average balance was primarily due to a $22.6 million, or 187.4%, increase in the average balance of borrowings for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024 and an increase of $61.4 million, or 22.5%, in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits. The increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was primarily due to an increase of 51 basis points in the cost of interest-bearing deposits to 1.87% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 1.36% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as the Bank raised rates on certain interest-bearing deposit products in an effort to remain competitive in the market area, offset by a 50 basis point decrease in the average rate of certificates of deposit.

General. Our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk because, as a financial institution, the majority of our assets and liabilities are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Therefore, a principal part of our operations is to manage interest rate risk and limit the exposure of our financial condition and results of operations to changes in market interest rates. Our ALCO/Investment Committee, which consists of members of management, is responsible for evaluating the interest rate risk inherent in our assets and liabilities, for determining the level of risk that is appropriate, given our business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with the policy and guidelines approved by our Board of Directors. We currently utilize a third-party modeling program, prepared on a quarterly basis, to evaluate our sensitivity to changing interest rates.

Liquidity is the ability to fund assets and meet obligations as they come due. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, and repayments from investment securities. In addition, we have the ability to borrow in the wholesale markets or from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. Our ALCO/Investment Committee is responsible for establishing and monitoring our liquidity targets and strategies in order to ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for meeting the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawals of our customers as well as unanticipated contingencies. We seek to maintain a ratio of liquid assets (including cash and federal funds sold) as a percentage of total deposits ranging between 4% and 30%. At March 31, 2025, this ratio was 7.4%. We believe that we have sufficient sources of liquidity to satisfy our short- and long-term liquidity needs as of March 31, 2025.

Our consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than the effects of inflation.
