(the “Company”) is a federally-chartered corporation organized as a mid-tier holding company for Northeast Community Bank (the “Bank”), in conjunction with the Bank’s reorganization from a mutual savings bank to the mutual holding company structure on July 5, 2006. The Bank is a New York State-chartered savings bank and completed its conversion from a federally-chartered savings bank effective as of the close of business on June 29, 2012. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, New England Commercial Properties, LLC (“NECP”) and NECB Financial Services Group, LLC. NECB Financial Services Group was formed by the Bank in the second quarter of 2012 as a complement to the Bank’s existing investment advisory and financial planning services division, Hayden Wealth Management. As of the filing of this Form 10-Q, NECB Financial Services Group has not conducted any business. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information as well as instructions for Form ~~10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.~~10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information or footnotes necessary for the presentation of financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the ~~nine-month~~six-month period ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period. The December 31, ~~2012~~2013 consolidated statement of financial condition data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. That data, along with the interim financial information presented in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition, income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2012.~~2013.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain recorded amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimate pertains to the allowance for loan losses. In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated the events that occurred after ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 and through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.

Loans

Loans are stated at unpaid principal balances plus net deferred loan origination costs less an allowance for loan losses. Interest on loans receivable is recorded on the accrual basis. An allowance for uncollected interest is established on loans where management has determined that the borrowers may be unable to meet contractual principal and/or interest obligations or where interest or principal is 90 days or more past due, unless the loans are well secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, an allowance for uncollected interest is established and charged against current income. Thereafter, interest income is not recognized unless the financial condition and payment record of the borrower warrant the recognition of interest income. Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six consecutive months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. Interest on loans that have been restructured is accrued according to the renegotiated terms, unless on non-accrual. Net loan origination fees and costs are deferred and amortized into income over the contractual lives of the related loans by use of the level yield method. Past due status of loans is based upon the contractual due date.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the statement of financial condition date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors.

Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Risk characteristics associated with the types of loans the Company underwrites are as follows:

Multi-family, Mixed-use and Non-residential Real Estate Loans. Loans secured by multi-family, mixed-use, and non-residential real estate generally have larger balances and involve a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Of primary concern in multi-family, mixed-use and non-residential real estate lending is the current and potential cash flow of the property and the borrower’s demonstrated ability to operate that type of property. Payments on loans secured by income properties often depend on successful operation and management of the properties. As a result, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent than residential real estate loans to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. To monitor cash flows on income producing properties, we require borrowers to provide annual financial statements for all multi-family, mixed-use and non-residential real estate loans. In reaching a decision on whether to make a multi-family, mixed-use or non-residential real estate loan, we consider the net operating income of the property, the borrower’s expertise, credit history and profitability and the value of the underlying property. In addition, with respect to non-residential real estate properties, we also consider the term of the lease and the quality of the tenants. An appraisal of the real estate used as collateral for the real estate loan is also obtained as part of the underwriting process. We have generally required that the properties securing these real estate loans have debt service coverage ratios (the ratio of earnings after subtracting all operating expenses to debt service payments) of at least 1.25x. In underwriting these loans, we take into account projected increases in interest rates in determining whether a loan meets our debt service coverage ratios at the higher interest rate under the adjustable rate mortgage. Environmental surveys and property inspections are utilized for all loans.

Commercial and Industrial Loans. Unlike ~~multi-family, mixed-use, and non-residential~~residential mortgage loans, which are generally made on the basis of a borrower’s ability to make repayment from the operation and cash flow from the real property whose value tends to be more ascertainable, commercial and industrial loans are of higher risk and tend to be made on the basis of a borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial and industrial loans may depend substantially on the success of the business itself. Further, any collateral securing such loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value.

Construction Loans. Construction financing ~~affords us the opportunity to achieve higher interest rates and fees with shorter terms to maturity than does residential mortgage loans. However, construction financing~~ is generally considered to involve a higher degree of risk of loss than long-term ~~financing on~~loans secured by improved, occupied real estate due toto: (1) the increased difficulty at the time the loan is made of estimating the building costs and the selling price of the property to be built; (2) the increased difficulty and costs of monitoring the loan; (3) the higher degree of sensitivity to increases in market rates of interest; and (4) the increased difficulty of working out loan problems. ~~We have~~The Company sought to minimize ~~this risk~~these risks by limiting the amount of construction loans outstanding at any time, by limiting our construction loans to borrowers who have in effect pre-sold their construction project, and by ~~spreading the loans among multi-family, mixed-use and non-residential projects. In connection with~~limiting our construction loans ~~that convert~~ to ~~permanent loans with us, we underwrite these loans using the same underwriting standards as our~~ multi-family ~~mixed-use~~ and ~~non-residential real estate loans. If we do not offer permanent financing to the borrower, we minimize risks by requiring the borrower to obtain permanent financing from another financial institution.~~

~~Residential One-to-Four Family Loans.~~~~Residential one-to-four~~single family mortgage loans are secured by the borrower’s personal residence. These loans have varying loan rates, depending on the financial condition of the borrower and the loan to value ratio, and have amortizations up to 30 years. Such loans are considered to have a lower degree of risk when compared to our other loan types.projects.

Consumer Loans. We offer personal loans, loans secured by passbook savings accounts, certificates of deposit accounts or statement savings accounts, and overdraft protection for checking accounts. We do not believe these loans represent a significant risk of loss to the Company.

The allowance for loan losses consists of specific and general ~~components.~~reserves. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For loans that are classified as impaired, a specific allowance is established or a partial charge-off is taken when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Continued)~~

~~Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)~~

~~Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company discontinued the use of specific allowances. If an impairment is identified, the Company now charges off the impaired portion immediately.~~ A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment records, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis.

The Company does not evaluate ~~consumer or~~individual one-to-four family residential ~~one- to four-family~~real estate and consumer loans for impairment, unless such loans are part of a larger relationship that is impaired, or are classified as a troubled debt ~~restructuring.~~restructuring (“TDR”).

The estimated fair values of substantially all of the Company’s impaired loans are measured based on the estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral or discounted cash flows.

For loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through in-house or third-party appraisals. When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary. This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property. Appraised values might be discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value. The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property.

For loans secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, estimated fair values are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets.

Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

The general component covers pools of loans by loan class including loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate and consumer loans. These pools of loans are evaluated for loss exposure based upon historical loss rates, adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative risk factors include:

Changes in policies and procedures in underwriting standards and collections.

Changes in economic conditions.

Changes in nature and volume of lending.

Experience of origination team.

Changes in past due loan volume and severity of classified assets.

Quality of loan review system.

Collateral values in general throughout lending territory.

Concentrations of credit.

Competition, legal and regulatory issues.

Each factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on management’s best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. Adjustments to the factors are supported through documentation of changes in conditions in a narrative accompanying the allowance for loan loss calculation.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)~~

The allowance for loan losses calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories. The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payments, for commercial, residential and consumer loans. Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss. Loans criticized as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects. Loans classified substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.

Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable. Loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible and are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Loans not classified are rated pass.

The allowance calculation for each pool of loans is also based on the loss factors that reflect the Company’s historical charge-off experience adjusted for current economic conditions applied to loan groups with similar characteristics or classifications in the current portfolio. To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Company has a structured loan rating process which allows for a periodic review of its loan portfolio and the early identification of potential impaired loans. Such system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, type of collateral and financial condition of the borrowers. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is ultimately responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loan portfolio.

Loans whose terms are modified are classified as ~~troubled debt restructurings~~TDRs if the Company grants such borrowers concessions and it is deemed that those borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions granted under a ~~troubled debt restructuring~~TDR generally involve a temporary reduction in interest rate or an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date. Adversely classified, non-accrual ~~troubled debt restructurings~~TDRs may be ~~reclassified~~returned to accrued status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for six consecutive months after modification. All TDR loans are classified as impaired.

In addition, banking regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013.~~2014.

Goodwill

Goodwill totaled $749,000 at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and consists of goodwill acquired in the business combination completed by the Company in November 2007. The Company ~~recognized~~tests goodwill ~~in connection with the acquisition of its wealth management division in 2007. In~~during the fourth quarter of ~~2012,~~each year for impairment, or more frequently if certain indicators are present or changes in circumstances suggest that impairment may exist. The Company utilizes a two-step approach. The first step requires a comparison of the ~~Company performed an impairment test and determined that~~carrying value of the reporting unit to the fair value of ~~this division was less than~~the unit. The Company estimates the fair value of the reporting unit through internal analyses and external valuation, which utilizes an income approach based on the present value of future cash flows. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, impairment exists and the Company will perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test, if necessary, compares the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with its carrying value.

The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner that the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination is determined. The Company allocates the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets and ~~accordingly,~~liabilities of that unit, including identifiable intangible assets, as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Any excess of the value of a reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. No impairment charges were recorded ~~an impairment charge of $227,000 in 2012.~~for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company determined that an adjustment to the goodwill impairment previously recorded in 2012 was necessary. As a result, an additional impairment charge of $334,000 was recognized during the second quarter of 2013.

The impairment charges were the result of a reduction in expected cash flow from this division resulting from the departure of two employees, one of which had generated significant other commission income from sales of insurance and annuity products. We expect future commission income to decline 50% from prior levels. This decline resulted in a decrease in the value of this division.

NOTE 2 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed in a manner similar to basic earnings per common share except that the weighted average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the incremental common shares (as computed using the treasury stock method) that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents were issued during the period. Common stock equivalents may include restricted stock awards and stock options. Anti-dilutive shares are common stock equivalents with weighted-average exercise prices in excess of the weighted-average market value for the periods presented. The Company has not granted any restricted stock awards or stock options and ~~during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012,~~ had no potentially dilutive common stock ~~equivalents.~~equivalents during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Unallocated common shares held by the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) are not included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating both basic and diluted earnings per common share until they are committed to be released.

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The Company’s securities ~~available for sale~~available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, we may be required to record at fair value other assets and liabilities on a non-recurring basis, such as impaired loans and other real estate owned. U.S. GAAP has established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Table of Contents

NOTE 6 –~~Fair Value~~ FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES(Continued)

	Level 1:	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

	Level 2:	Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

	Level 3:	Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity).

An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

For financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used are as follows:

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES (Continued)

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 and December 31, ~~2012:~~2013:

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Certificates of Deposit and Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable

For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~NOTE 6 –Fair Value DISCLOSURES(Continued)~~

Securities

Fair values for securities ~~available for sale~~available-for-sale and ~~held to maturity~~held-to-maturity are determined utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Companyobtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Loans ~~Receivable~~

Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. The total loan portfolio is first divided into performing and non-performing categories. Performing loans are then segregated into adjustable and fixed rate interest terms. Fixed rate loans are segmented by type, such as construction, ~~and land development,~~ other loans secured by real estate, commercial and industrial loans, and ~~loans to individuals.~~consumer. Certain types, such as commercial loans and consumer loans, ~~to individuals,~~ are further segmented by maturity and type of collateral.

For performing loans, fair value is calculated by discounting scheduled future cash flows through estimated maturity using a ~~current~~ market ~~rate.~~rate that reflects the credit and interest-rate risks inherent in the loans. The discounted value of the cash flows is reduced by a credit risk adjustment ~~basedon~~based on internal loan ~~classifications~~.

classifications. For ~~certain impaired~~non-performing loans, fair value is calculated by ~~first reducing the carrying value by a credit risk adjustment based on internal loan classifications, and then~~ discounting the estimated future cash flows from the remaining carrying value at a market rate.

For ~~the remaining~~ impaired loans which the Company has measured and recorded impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral, fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party ~~appraisals~~appraisal of the ~~properties.~~properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are typically included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

FHLB of New York Stock

The carrying amount of the FHLB of New York stock approximates its fair value, and considers the limited marketability of this security.

Deposit Liabilities

The fairvalue of deposits with no stated maturity, such as non-interest-bearing demand deposits, money market accounts, interest checking accounts, and savings accounts is equal to the amount payable on demand. Time deposits are segregated by type, size, and remaining maturity. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is based on rates currently offered in the market.

FHLB of New York Advances

The fair value of the FHLB advances is estimated based on the discounted value of future contractual payments. The discount rate is equivalent to the estimated rate at which the Company could currently obtain similar financing.

Off-Balance- Sheet Financial Instruments

The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated based on an analysis of the interest rates and fees currently charged to enter into similar transactions, considering the remaining terms of the commitments and the credit-worthiness of the potential borrowers. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 and December 31, ~~2012,~~2013, the estimated fair values of these off-balance-sheet financial instruments were immaterial.

Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sale transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective year-ends and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates.

NOTE 8 – EFFECT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July ~~2012,~~2013, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting ~~Standards~~Standard Update (“ASU”) ~~2012-02,~~2013-11,~~Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.~~Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists,which provides guidance on financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss (NOL) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The FASB’s objective in issuing this ASU is to ~~ASU 2011-08, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 250) - Testing Goodwill for Impairment.~~ ~~ASU 2012-02 addresses the growing cost and complexity~~eliminate diversity in practice resulting from a lack of ~~performing an analysis to evaluate indefinite-lived intangible assets (other than goodwill) for impairment.~~guidance on this topic in current U.S. GAAP. This ASU introduces qualitative factors which would simplify the analysis if facts and circumstances make it more-likely-than-not that impairment would not exist. Rather than requiring a purely quantitative impairment test, the ASU providesapplies to all entities with unrecognized tax benefits that also have tax loss or tax credit carryforwards in the ~~option to first examine qualitative factors to make this determination. Factors to be considered would include, but are not limited to:~~

~~Increases in interest rates, salaries, or other operating expenses, which would have a negative impact on future earnings or cash flows;~~

~~Recent financial performance and cash flow trends;~~

~~Aspects of the legal and regulatory environment which are expected to impact future cash flows, such as the Dodd-Frank Act;~~

~~Management turnover;~~

~~Economic and industry conditions.~~

~~Entities are required by~~same tax jurisdiction as of the reporting date. For public entities, the guidance to consider both positive and negative impacts of such factors before determining whether it is more-likely-than-not (i.e. greater than 50% probability) that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. It should be noted that the qualitative portion of the analysis is optional for all issuers.

~~This ASU~~ is effective for ~~impairment tests performed during~~ fiscal years beginning after ~~September~~December 15, ~~2012,~~2013 and ~~may be early adopted if the entity’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal or~~ interim ~~period have not yet been issued.~~periods within those years. The ~~Company adopted~~adoption of this guidance ~~effective January 1, 2013. The adoption had no~~did not have a material ~~effect~~impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU ~~2013-02:~~2014-04,~~Comprehensive Income (Topic 220)~~Receivables – ~~Reporting~~Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, which clarifies that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of ~~Amounts Reclassified Out~~residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loans, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of ~~Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.The objective of this ASU is to improve~~a foreclosure or (2) the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This ASU requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income, by component, on the respective line itemsborrower conveying all interest in the ~~income statement if~~residential real estate property to the ~~amount being reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)~~creditor to ~~be reclassified~~satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in ~~its entirety to net income. Reclassifications that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in~~lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the ~~same reporting period are required to be cross-referenced to other U.S. GAAP disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. This is the case when a portion~~amendments require interim and annual disclosure of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account rather than directly to income or expense in the same reporting period. For example, some portion of net periodic pension cost is immediately reported in net income, but other portions may be capitalized to an asset balance such as fixed assets or inventory. An entity with significant defined benefit pension costs reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income but not to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period should identifyboth (1) the amount of ~~each pension cost component reclassified out~~foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of ~~accumulated other comprehensive income and make reference~~foreclosure according to ~~the relevant pension cost disclosure that provides greater detail about these reclassifications.~~

~~The amendments do not change the current~~local requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. However, the amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the ~~statement where net income~~applicable jurisdiction. For public entities, the guidance is ~~presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income.~~

~~The provisions of this ASU are~~ effective for ~~public entities prospectively for reporting~~annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, ~~2012.~~2014. The Company ~~adopted~~does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On May 28, 2014, the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) issued ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The ASU is effective ~~January 1, 2013.~~for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016.

NOTE 9 – DIVIDEND RESTRICTION

NorthEast Community Bancorp MHC (the “MHC”) held 7,273,750 shares, or ~~57.5%~~58.8%, of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, and the minority public shareholders held ~~42.5%~~41.2% of outstanding stock, at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013.~~2014. The MHC filed notice with, and received approval from, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia to waive its right to receive cash dividends for the period from November ~~9, 2012~~13, 2013 through November ~~9, 2013.~~12, 2014.

The MHC has waived receipt of all past dividends paid by the Company through ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013,~~2014, with the exception of the dividend for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Because the MHC determined not to waive receipt of the dividend for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the MHC received $218,000 in dividends in August 2012. The dividends waived are considered as a restriction on the retained earnings of the Company. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 and December 31, ~~2012,~~2013, the aggregate retained earnings restricted for cash dividends waived were ~~$5,019,000~~$5,674,000 and ~~$4,364,000,~~$5,237,000, respectively.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions and may describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project” or similar expressions. The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, national and regional economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board, the quality and composition of the loan or investment portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in the Company’s market area, changes in real estate market values in the Company’s market area, and changes in relevant accounting principles and guidelines. Additional factors that may affect the Company’s results are discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K under “Item 1A. Risk Factors.” These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to release publicly the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We consider accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income to be critical accounting policies. We consider the allowance for loan losses and valuation of goodwill to be a critical accounting policy. There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies and procedures during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

~~Allowance for Loan Losses.~~The allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to cover probable credit losses in the loan portfolio at the statement of financial condition date. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses, which is charged to income. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Among the material estimates required to establish the allowance are: loss exposure at default; the amount and timing of future cash flows on impaired loans; value of collateral; and determination of loss factors to be applied to the various elements of the portfolio. All of these estimates are susceptible to significant change. Management reviews the level of the allowance on a quarterly basis and establishes the provision for loan losses based upon an evaluation of the portfolio, past loss experience, current economic conditions and other factors related to the collectability of the loan portfolio. Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation.

Due to the conversion of the Bank to a New York State-chartered savings bank on June 29, 2012, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the New York State Department of Financial Services (“NYS”) are now the Bank’s primary regulators. As such, the FDIC and NYS, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. The FDIC and NYS could require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examinations. A large loss or a series of losses could deplete the allowance and require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would negatively affect earnings. For additional ~~discussion, see~~information on our critical accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 toof the consolidated financial statements included in ~~the Company’s~~our 2013 Annual Report on Form ~~10-K~~10-K.

Second Quarter Performance Highlights

The Company’s earnings for the ~~year~~quarter ended June 30, 2014 increased by $75,000 compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to an increase in net interest income, an increase in non-interest income, and a decrease in non-interest expense, partially offset by a credit in provision for loan losses that was less than the same period in 2013 and an increase in provision for income taxes. The Company had a credit of $217,000 in provision for loan losses during the June 30, 2014 quarter compared to a credit of $423,000 in provision for loan losses during the June 30, 2013 quarter.

Non-performing loans increased by $6.0 million, or 128.1%, to $10.6 million as of June 30, 2014 from $4.7 million as of December 31, ~~2012.~~2013. The increase in non-performing loans was primarily due to the addition of five non-performing mortgage loans totaling $5.3 million and two non-performing commercial and industrial loans totaling $2.5 million, partially offset by the conversion from non-performing to performing status of one mortgage loan totaling $830,000, the satisfaction of one mortgage loan totaling $789,000, and the partial charge-off of $325,000 for one mortgage loan.

The ~~Company recorded goodwill~~increase in the construction mortgage loan portfolio was due to the Company’s entry in 2012 in the Massachusetts construction market through the origination of construction loans secured by the construction of multi-family and single family properties and the Company’s entry during the latter part of 2013 into the New York State construction market through the origination of construction loans secured by the construction of multi-family properties located in New York State.

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $6.1 million, or 19.4%, to $37.6 million at June 30, 2014 from $31.5 million at December 31, 2013 due primarily to increases in deposits. Bank owned life insurance increased by $309,000, or 1.5%, to $20.8 million at June 30, 2014 from $20.5 million at December 31, 2013 due to accrued earnings during 2014. Accrued interest receivable increased by $189,000, or 14.9%, to $1.5 million at June 30, 2014 from $1.3 million at December 31, 2013 due primarily to an increase in ~~connection with~~ the Hayden Financial Group acquisition in 2007.

The Company identified an impairment on its outstanding goodwill as a result of its most recent testing conducted in December 2012. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $227,000 in 2012. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company determined that an adjustment to the goodwill impairment of $227,000 previously recorded in 2012 was necessary. As a result, the Company recognized an additional impairment charge of $334,000 during the second quarter of 2013. The impairment was caused primarily by the expected decrease in other revenue from this division resulting from a reduction in personnel.

~~Third Quarter Performance Highlights~~

The Company’s earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased by $1.4 million compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to a credit to the allowance for loan losses in the 2013 period and a decrease in non-interest expenses, partially offset by a decrease in net interest income, a decrease in non-interest income, and an increase in the provision (benefit) for income taxes. The credit to the allowance for loan losses in 2013 was due to a decrease in the balance of non-performing loans.

Non-performing loans decreased by $1.7 million, or 41.6%, to $2.3 million as of September 30, 2013 from $4.0 million as of December 31, 2012. The decrease in non-performing loans was due to the identification, monitoring, and resolution of several non-performing loans that were paid-off or became performing as of, or prior to, September 30, 2013. We will continue to monitor our loan portfolio closely and adjust the level of allowance for loan losses appropriately as updated information becomes available.

The decrease in non-interest expense was due primarily to a decrease in expenses related to salaries and employee benefits in 2013 as the Company continues its efforts to control such expenses by reducing staff in various departments, including the mortgage brokerage department, the wealth management department, and branch operations.

Our interest rate spread decreased to 3.45% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from 3.93% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and our net interest margin decreased to 3.69% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from 4.17% for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Due to market conditions, we discontinued purchasing participation interests in construction loans in 2009. In 2012, we commenced originating construction loans secured by multi-family or non-residential properties as an accommodation to maintain and/or develop relationships with our deposit and loan customers. Recently, we have expanded our construction lending department and currently expect that our origination of construction loans for multi-family, mixed-use and non-residential buildings will increase.

~~Securities held-to-maturity decreased by $3.0 million, or 24.6%, to $9.0 million at September 30,~~ 2013 ~~from $12.0 million at December 31, 2012~~ due primarily to repayments of $3.0 million.

FHLB stock decreased by $481,000, or 35.5%, to $874,000 at September 30, 2013 from $1.4 million at December 31, 2012 due primarily to a decrease in the amount of FHLB stock that we are required to hold as a result of decreases in FHLB advances.

Bank owned life insurance increased by $480,000, or 2.4%, to $20.3 million at September 30, 2013 from $19.9 million at December 31, 2012 due to accrued earnings during 2013. Real estate owned decreased by $450,000, or 10.5%, to $3.8 million at September 30, 2013 from $4.3 million at December 31, 2012 due to the sale of a foreclosed property.$956,000.

In this regard, we obtained $17.1 million in non-broker certificates of deposit since December 31, 2013. The increase in deposits was primarily attributable to efforts by the Company to increase liquidity, fund loan originations, and increase reliance on long term certificates of deposit.

Interest income on loans increased by $112,000, or 2.4%, to $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The ~~decrease~~increase was primarily the result of an increase of $45.1 million, or 13.1%, in the average balance of the loan portfolio to $388.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $343.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as originations outpaced repayments and charge-offs, net of recoveries. The increase in the average balance of the loan portfolio was offset by a decrease of 3852 basis points in the average yield on loans to ~~5.07%~~4.93% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from 5.45% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012.~~2013. The decrease in ~~interest income and~~ the average yield on loans was ~~also~~ due to the pay-off of numerous higher yielding mortgage loans and the refinancing and/or re-pricing to lower interest rates of numerous mortgage loans in our loan portfolio. This resulted in a decrease of $13.6 million, or 3.9%, in the average balance of the loan portfolio to $339.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $353.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as repayments outpaced originations and charge-offs, net of recoveries.

The increase in the interest expense on deposits was also a result of offering competitive interest rates to generate deposits in connection with the opening of two new branches in Framingham and Quincy, Massachusetts during the latter part of the third quarter of 2012. These two factors resulted in an increase of 14three basis points in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits to ~~1.02%~~1.03% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from ~~0.88%~~1.00% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2012.

This also resulted in a 3 basis point increase in the average interest cost to 0.38% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from 0.35% for the three months ended September 30, 2012.~~2013.

The interest expense of our interest-bearing savings and club deposits ~~decreased~~increased by ~~$5,000,~~$8,000, or ~~4.3%~~7.2%, to ~~$112,000~~$118,000 for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from ~~$117,000~~$110,000 for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012.~~2013.

The increase in our interest-bearing certificates was due to management’s decision to continue offering competitive interest rates to generate deposits through a nationwide certificate of deposit listing service. The increase in interest expense of our interest-bearing certificates of deposit was ~~also due to~~offset by a 14three basis point ~~increase~~decrease in the average interest cost on such certificates to ~~1.56%~~1.51% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from ~~1.42%~~1.54% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012.~~2013. The decrease in the average interest cost of our interest-bearing certificates of deposit was due to the re-pricing of maturing certificates of deposit and the acquisition of competitively priced interest-bearing certificates of deposit through a non-broker nationwide certificate of deposit listing service.

Interest expense on borrowings decreased by ~~$93,000,~~$12,000, or ~~66.9%~~26.7%, to ~~$46,000~~$33,000 for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from ~~$139,000~~$45,000 for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $10.0 million, or 66.7%, in the average balance of borrowed money to $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $15.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012.2013. The decrease in interest expense on borrowings was ~~also~~ due to a decrease of 3283 basis points in the cost of borrowed money to ~~3.68%~~0.77% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from ~~3.71%~~3.60% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012~~2013 due primarily to the maturity and repayment of higher costing FHLB advances during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 and new lower cost FHLB advances obtained during the first six months of 2014. The decrease in interest expense on borrowings was partially offset by an increase of $12.1 million, or 241.0%, in the average balance of borrowed money to $17.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from ~~2012 to~~$5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

The allowance to non-performing loans ratio ~~increased~~decreased to ~~173.78%~~36.93% at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from ~~40.70%~~195.40% at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012~~2013 due primarily to ~~a decrease~~an increase in non-performing loans to ~~$2.3~~$10.6 million at ~~September~~June 30, 2014 from $2.2 million at June 30, 2013 ~~from $14.0 million at September 30, 2012, offset by~~and a decrease in the allowance for loan losses. The ~~decrease~~increase in non-performing loans was due to the ~~identification, monitoring~~addition of seven mortgage loans totaling $7.6 million and ~~resolution~~four commercial and industrial loans totaling $2.5 million, partially offset by the conversion from non-performing to performing status of ~~several non-performing~~three mortgage loans ~~that were paid-off or became performing as~~totaling $1.0 million and the satisfaction of ~~or prior to, September 30, 2013.~~one mortgage loan totaling $727,000.

The allowance for loan losses was ~~$4.01~~$3.93 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013, $4.65~~2014, $4.02 million at December 31, ~~2012,~~2013, and ~~$5.71~~$4.21 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012.~~2013. We recorded a credit provision for loan losses of ($~~191,000)~~217,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to a credit provision for loan losses of ($423,000) for the three month period ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013 compared to provision for loan losses of $1.9 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2012.~~2013. The reduction in the ~~provision~~allowance for loan losses was due to ~~a decrease~~the Company’s assessment that there are no losses anticipated in connection with the increase in non-performing loans beyond the amounts already charged-off, that there has been an improvement in the ~~amount~~Company’s historical charge-offs, and that the level of ~~non-performing loans~~allowance for loan losses was adequate due to improvements in the ~~loan portfolio.~~economy and the multi-family, mixed-use and non-residential real estate market.

We had no charge-offs of $398,000 during the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 compared to charge-offs of ~~$85,000~~$105,000 during the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012.~~2013. We recorded no recoveries of $340,000 during the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 compared to recoveries of ~~$11,000~~$27,000 during the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012.~~2013.

Non-interest Income. Non-interest income ~~decreased~~increased by ~~$230,000,~~$21,000, or ~~32.8%~~4.5%, to ~~$472,000~~$487,000 for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from ~~$702,000~~$466,000 for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012.~~2013. The ~~decrease~~increase was primarily due to ~~a $171,000 decrease~~increases of $20,000 in advisory fee income generated by our wealth management division, and $8,000 in other loan fees and service charges, ~~primarily~~offset by a decrease of $7,000 in earnings on bank owned life insurance. The increase in advisory fee income from our wealth management division was due to an increase in assets under management. The increase in other loan fees and service charges was due to an increase in loan fees as our loan portfolio increased. The decrease in earnings on bank owned life insurance was due to a decrease ~~of $147,000~~ in ~~mortgage broker fee income, and a $59,000 decrease in fee income generated by our wealth management division. The decrease in mortgage broker fee income was due to~~ the ~~elimination in January 2013~~effective yield of the ~~1-4 family residential mortgage loan brokerage department and the termination of the related staff.~~underlying investments.

Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense decreased by ~~$1.1 million,~~$296,000, or ~~22.5%~~6.8%, to ~~$3.7~~$4.1 million for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 from ~~$4.8~~$4.4 million for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2012.~~2013. The decrease resulted primarily from decreases of ~~$692,000~~$334,000 in ~~salaries and employee benefits, $305,000~~impairment loss on goodwill, $136,000 in ~~other non-interest expense, $81,000~~real estate owned expenses, $14,000 in equipment expense, ~~$68,000~~and $10,000 in advertising ~~expense, $36,000 in outside data processing expense, and $23,000 in occupancy~~ expense, partially offset by increases of ~~$64,000~~$105,000 in salaries and employee benefits, $38,000 in FDIC insurance expense, $37,000 in other non-interest expense, $10,000 in occupancy expense, and ~~$59,000~~$8,000 in ~~real estate owned expenses.~~outside data processing expense.

The impairment loss on goodwill during the second quarter of ~~full time equivalent employees to 102 at September 30,~~ 2013 ~~from 126 at September 30, 2012. The decrease in full time employees~~ was due to the Company’s ~~efforts~~determination that an adjustment to ~~control~~ the ~~increase~~goodwill impairment of $227,000 previously recorded in ~~salaries and employee benefits~~2012 was necessary. The goodwill was recorded in connection with the Hayden Financial Group acquisition in 2007. The impairment was caused primarily by ~~reducing staff in various departments, including~~ the ~~mortgage brokerage department, the wealth management department, and branch operations from September 30, 2012 to September 30, 2013. The~~expected decrease in ~~salaries and employee benefits was also due to the resignation of the former chief financial officer~~other revenue from this division resulting from a reduction in ~~July 2013 that resulted in the reversal of certain forfeited benefits.~~personnel.

~~Other non-interest~~Real estate owned expense decreased by ~~$305,000,~~$136,000, or ~~25.0%~~78.6%, to ~~$914,000~~$37,000 in 2014 from $173,000 in 2013 ~~from $1.2 million in 2012~~ due ~~mainly~~ to ~~decreases of $170,000 in recruitment~~operating expenses related to one foreclosed property during the ~~hiring~~quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to two foreclosed properties during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and a loss of ~~additional personnel in~~$51,000 on the Company’s Headquarters and Massachusetts locations, $111,000 in directors, officers and employee expenses, $32,000 in regulatory assessments, $16,000 in office supplies and stationery, $14,000 in legal fees, and $8,000 in service contracts.

Liquidity Management. Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, maturities and sales of securities, and borrowings 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 loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

Table of Contents

We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of: (1) expected loan demands; (2) expected deposit flows; (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities; and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability management policy.

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending, and investing activities during any given period. Cash and cash equivalents totaled ~~$30.6~~$37.6 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 and ~~consist~~consisted primarily of interest-bearing deposits at other financial institutions and miscellaneous cash items. The Company can alsoborrow anadditional ~~$92.5~~ $80.8 million from the FHLB of New York to provide additional liquidity.

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013,~~2014, we had ~~$41.5~~$97.3 million in loan commitments outstanding, consisting of ~~$23.1~~$38.6 million of real estate loan commitments, $26.9 million in unused commercial and industrial loan lines of credit, ~~$9.6~~$25.2 million ~~of real estate loan commitments, $6.5~~in unused loans in process, $3.8 million in unused real estate equity lines of credit, ~~$2.1~~$2.7 million ~~in unused loans in process, $197,000~~ in commercial and industrial loan commitments, and ~~$133,000~~$158,000 in consumer lines of credit. Certificates of deposit due within one year of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 totaled ~~$69.5~~$62.2 million. This represented ~~46.9%~~36.8% of certificates of deposit at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013.~~2014. We believe a large percentage of certificates of deposit that mature within one year reflects customers’ hesitancy to invest their funds for long periods in the current interest rate environment. If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit and borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we paid on the certificates of deposit due on or before ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013.~~2014. We believe, however, based on past experience, a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

Our primary investing activities are the origination of loans and the purchase of securities. Our primary financing activities consist of deposit accounts and FHLB ~~advances~~.advances. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013,~~2014, we had the ability to borrow ~~$92.5~~$80.8 million, net of ~~$5.0~~$20.9 million in outstanding advances, from the FHLB of New York. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013,~~2014, we had no overnight advances outstanding. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by us and our local competitors and other factors. We generally manage the pricing of our deposits to be competitive and to maintain or increase our core deposit relationships depending on our level of real estate loan commitments outstanding. Occasionally, we offer promotional rates on certain deposit products to attract deposits or to lengthen repricing time frames.

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. In addition to its operating expenses, the Company is responsible for paying any dividends declared to its shareholders and for the repurchase, if any, of its shares of common stock. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013,~~2014, the Company had liquid assets of ~~$13.7~~$11.7 million.

Capital Management.The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FDIC, including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013,~~2014, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. The Bank is considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines.

~~Table of Contents~~

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, letters of credit and lines of credit.

For the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013~~2014 and the year ended December 31, ~~2012,~~2013, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Qualitative Aspects of Market Risk.The Company’s most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. We manage the interest rate sensitivity of our interest-bearing liabilities and interest-earning assets in an effort to minimize the adverse effects of changes in the interest rate environment. Deposit accounts typically react more quickly to changes in market interest rates than mortgage loans because of the shorter maturities of deposits. As a result, sharp increases in interest rates may adversely affect our earnings while decreases in interest rates may beneficially affect our earnings. To reduce the potential volatility of our earnings, we have sought to improve the match between asset and liability maturities and rates, while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread.

Our strategy for managing interest rate risk emphasizes: originating mortgage real estate loans that re-price to market interest rates in three to five years; purchasing securities that typically re-price within a three year time frame to limit exposure to market fluctuations; and, where appropriate, offering higher rates on long term certificates of deposit to lengthen the re-pricing time frame of our liabilities. We currently do not participate in hedging programs, interest rate swaps or other activities involving the use of derivative financial instruments.

We have an Asset/Liability Committee, comprised of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Retail Banking Officer, and three Chief Lending ~~Officer – New England Region, and Chief Lending Officer – Mid-Atlantic Region,~~Officers, whose function is to communicate, coordinate and control all aspects involving asset/liability management. The committee establishes and monitors the volume, maturities, pricing and mix of assets and funding sources with the objective of managing assets and funding sources to provide results that are consistent with liquidity, growth, risk limits and profitability goals.

Our goal is to manage asset and liability positions to moderate the effects of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income and net income.

Quantitative Aspects of Market Risk. We use an interest rate sensitivity analysis prepared by an independent third party to review our level of interest rate risk. This analysis measures interest rate risk by computing changes in the net portfolio value of our cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. Net portfolio value represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. These analyses assess the risk of loss in market risk-sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained 50100 to ~~300~~400 basis point increase or ~~50 and~~ 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counter the effect of that interest rate movement.

The following table presents the change in our net portfolio value at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2013that~~2014 that would occur in the event of an immediate change in interest rates based on the independent third party assumptions, with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counteract that change.

~~Table of Contents~~

We use various assumptions in assessing interest rate risk. These assumptions relate to interest rates, loan prepayment rates, deposit decay rates and the market values of certain assets under differing interest rate scenarios, among others. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the methods of analyses presented in the foregoing tables. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates.

Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, have features that restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early withdrawals from certificates could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table. Prepayment rates can have a significant impact on interest income. Because of the large percentage of loans we hold, rising or falling interest rates have a significant impact on the prepayment speeds of our earning assets that in turn affect the rate sensitivity position. When interest rates rise, prepayments tend to slow. When interest rates fall, prepayments tend to rise. Our asset sensitivity would be reduced if prepayments slow and vice versa. While we believe these assumptions to be reasonable, there can be no assurance that assumed prepayment rates will approximate actual future loan repayment activity.

Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

On October 31, 2011, a complaint was filed by Stilwell Value Partners IV, L.P. in the Supreme Court of New York, New York County (the “Court”), against the ~~Company, the~~ MHC and each of the directors of the Company and the ~~MHC.~~MHC as defendants, and against the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleged that the directors had breached their fiduciary duties by not expanding the Company board to allow for disinterested consideration of a “second-step” conversion of the MHC. As relief, the complaint requested, among other things, that the Company’s board of directors be increased by at least three new members, that such new members be given sole responsibility to determine whether the Company should engage in a second-step conversion and that the Court order the Company to engage in a second-step conversion. A motion to dismiss the Complaint was filed on December 14, 2011. On September 27, 2012, the Court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss and dismissed the complaint granting Stilwell leave to file an amended complaint within 20 days. On December 14, 2012 Stilwell filed an amended complaint, alleging that the directors had breached their fiduciary duties by not voting to authorize a ~~second-step~~second step conversion or permitting disinterested consideration by new, independent board members of a second step conversion. Stilwell asserted claims against the MHC, as majority shareholder of the Company, for breach of fiduciary duty and for aiding and abetting the directors’ alleged breach of fiduciary duty.

The defendants and the Company filed a motion to dismiss on February 1, 2013. Stilwell filed his opposition on March 8, 2013, and the defendants and the Company filed ~~its~~their reply brief on March 29, 2013. The Court held a hearing on the motion on June 12, 2013. On October 23, 2013, the Court denied the motion to dismiss, holding ~~that~~ the Court could not say that Stilwell had not alleged a viable claim, and thus the Court allowed the lawsuit against the Company’s directors and the MHC to proceed. The defendants and the Company appealed that decision to the Supreme Court of the State of New York’s Appellate Division, First Department, (“Appellate Division”) on November 27, 2013. The defendants and the Company filed their opening appeal brief on February 18, 2014. Stilwell filed his response brief on March 26, 2014. The defendants and the Company filed their reply brief on April 4, 2014. The Appellate Division heard oral argument on May 22, 2014. Additionally, on February 21, 2014, Stilwell moved to disqualify the Company’s counsel, which represents the Company, the individual directors, and MHC in this litigation. Stilwell argued that he was suing the directors and MHC on behalf of the Company and thus that there was a conflict of interest among the defendants that required the Company to have separate counsel. The defendants opposed the motion on March 7, 2014. Stilwell filed a reply on March 13, 2014. The Court held oral argument on April 9, 2014, and denied the disqualification motion. Plaintiff filed its opening brief on July 1, 2014. Defendant’s opposition was filed on August 6, 2014, and briefing of that appeal is on-going.

On July 3, 2014, Salvatore Randazzo, a former director of the MHC, the Company and the Bank, retained separate counsel to represent him in the litigation.

The parties are continuing to conduct discovery, including document production, depositions and third party discovery.

The Company and Bank are also subject to claims and litigation that arise primarily in the ordinary course of business. Based on information presently available and advice received from legal counsel representing the Company and Bank in connection with such claims and litigation, it is the opinion of management that the disposition or ultimate determination of such claims and litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.
