Current report

Gain on sale of loans was $112,000 compared to a loss on sale of loans of $712,000 in the comparative period. The loss in the prior year period was primarily the result of the sale of three related nonperforming commercial real estate loans held-for-sale.

Current report

Net occupancy expense of premises increased $212,000 to $3.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily driven by higher snow removal expenses due to abnormally harsh winter conditions.

Gain on sale of loans was $616,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 compared to a loss on sale of loans of $393,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2024.

Previous report

Other non-interest expense decreased $724,000 to $3.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. This decrease reflected a decrease in OREO expenses following the sale of a our sole OREO asset in January 2024.

Previous report

The decrease in income tax expense reflected the absence of discrete tax costs related to the BOLI restructure recorded in the prior comparative period, partially offset by pre-tax income in the current period compared to a pre-tax net loss in the prior comparative period.

Previous report

In March 2020, the federal banking agencies announced an interim final rule to delay the estimated impact on regulatory capital stemming from the implementation of CECL. The interim final rule provides banks the option to delay for two years an estimate of CECL’s effect on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss method, followed by a three-year transition period established in the previous rule (five-year transition option). We have adopted the capital transition relief over the permissible five-year period. The two-year delay ended for us as of June 30, 2022 and we then began the three-year transition period.

Details surrounding the composition of, and changes to, net interest income are presented in the table below which reflects the components of the average balance sheet and of net interest income for the periods indicated. We derived the average yields and costs by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented with daily balances used to derive average balances. No tax equivalent adjustments have been made to yield or costs. Non-accrual loans were included in the calculation of average balances, however interest receivable on these loans has been fully reserved for and therefore not included in interest income. The yields and costs set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.
