MAGYAR BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Magyar Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), its wholly owned subsidiary, Magyar Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries Magyar Service Corporation, Hungaria Urban Renewal, LLC, and Magyar Investment Company. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The unaudited information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.
Operating results for the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2023.2024. The September 30, 20222023 information has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of available-for-sale investment securities, the valuation of other real estate owned (“OREO”), and the assessment of realizability of deferred income tax assets.
The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date of June 30,December 31, 2023 for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was conducted through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.
NOTE B - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In connection with the preparation of quarterly and annual reports in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Securities Exchange Act of 1934, SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 11.M requires the disclosure of the impact that recently issued accounting standards will have on consolidated financial statements when they are adopted in the future.
In June 2016, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 (“CECL”) requires entities (Topic 326), which changed the impairment model for most financial assets. This update was intended to report “expected”improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other commitmentsorganizations. The underlying premise of the update is that financial assets measured at amortized cost should be presented at the net amount expected to extendbe collected, through an allowance for credit rather thanlosses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) should reflect management's current “incurred loss” model. Theseestimate of credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset. The income statement will be affected for the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, held at the reporting date are to be based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The CECL will also require enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant management’s estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit quality and underwriting standards of an entity’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirementslosses that provide additional information abouthave taken place during the amounts recorded in the financial statements.
In October 2019, the FASB votedperiod. With certain exceptions, transition to defer the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 (October 1, 2023 for the Company), and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company continues to evaluate the impact the new standardrequirements will have on the accounting for credit losses. The Company may recognizebe through a one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to the allowance for loan lossesopening retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standardguidance is adopted. This update is effective consistent with regulatory expectations set forth in interagency guidance issued at the end of 2016.
The Company will adopt CECL relatedfor SEC filers that are eligible to Financial Instruments -Credit Losses (Topic 326) on of October 1, 2023, using a modified retrospective approach. The Company’s implementationprocess includes scoping, segmentationbe smaller reporting companies, non-SEC filers, and the design of a methodology appropriate for each respective financial instrument.The process also includes the development of loss forecasting models as well as the incorporation of qualitativeadjustments. Evaluation of technical accounting topics, updatesall other companies, to our allowance policydocumentation, model validation, governance and reporting, processes and related internal controls, as well as overall operationalreadiness will be completed throughout September 30, 2023 in preparation for adoption.fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
BasedThe Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on analyses performed duringOctober 1, 2023 using the quarter ending June 30,modified retrospective approach for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, available-for-sale debt securities and unfunded commitments. The Company recorded a cumulative effect increase to retained earnings of $492,000 ($346,000 net of taxes), which was comprised of a $1,032,000 ($725,000 net of tax) increase related to loans and $540,000 ($379,000 net of tax) decrease related to unfunded commitments. The Company determined that there was no impact to retained earnings related to held-to-maturity securities as a result of adopting this guidance. The results reported for periods beginning on or after October 1, 2023 as well as an implementation analysis utilizing exposures and forecastsare presented under ASC 326, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable accounting standards.
The impact of economic conditions as of June 30, 2023, the Company currently expectschange from the adoption of CECL will result in an adjustmentincurred loss model to the current expected credit loss model is included in the following table:

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
The Company maintains its allowance for credit losses amount(“ACL”) at October 1, 2023 in the range of $630,000a level that management believes to $950,000, which includes unfunded commitments and heldbe appropriate to maturity debt securities. The impact will be reflectedabsorb estimated credit losses as a cumulative effect adjustment, net of taxes. At June 30, 2023, the allowance for loan losses totaled $8.4 million. As the Company is currently finalizing the execution of its implementation controls and processes, the ultimate impact of the adoptiondate of CECL asthe Consolidated Statement of October 1, 2023 could differ fromFinancial Condition. The Company established its allowance in accordance with the guidance included in Accounting Standards Codification 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”). The ACL is a valuation reserve established and maintained by charges against income. Loans, or portions thereof, are charged-off against the ACL when they are deemed uncollectible. The ACL is an estimate of expected credit losses that considers our historical loss experience, the weighted average expected lives of loans, current expectation as it is largely dependent on the economic conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The determination of an appropriate ACL is inherently subjective and may have significant changes from period to period. The methodology for determining the ACL has two main components: evaluation of expected credit losses for certain groups of homogeneous loans that share similar risk characteristics and evaluation of loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans. The ACL is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar characteristics exist. The Company’s loan portfolio is segmented by loan types that have similar risk characteristics and behave similarly during economic cycles.
Historical credit loss experience is the basis for the estimate of expected credit losses. We apply our historical loss rates to pools of loans with similar risk characteristics using the Weighted-Average Remaining Maturity (“WARM”) method. The remaining contractual life of the pools of loans with similar risk characteristics is adjusted by expected scheduled payments and prepayments. After consideration of the historical loss calculation, management applies qualitative adjustments to reflect the current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts not already reflected in the historical loss information. Our reasonable and supportable forecast adjustment is based on a regional economic indicator obtained from the United States Government Publishing Office. The Company selected eight qualitative metrics which were correlated with the Bank and its peer group’s historical loss patterns. The eight qualitative metrics include: changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in national and local economic conditions as well as business conditions, changes in the nature, complexity, and volume of the portfolio, changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lenders and lending management, changes in the volume and severity of past due and classified loans, changes in the value of collateral securing loans, changes in or the existence of credit concentrations, and changes in the legal and/or regulatory landscape. The adjustments are weighted for relevance before applying to each pool of loans. Each quarter, management reviews the recommended adjustment factors and applies any additional adjustments based on current conditions.
The Company has elected to exclude $4.3 million of accrued interest receivable on loans as of December 31, 2023 from the measurement of its ACL. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any outstanding accrued interest is reversed against interest income. Accrued interest on loans is reported in the accrued interest receivable line on the consolidated statements of financial condition.
The ACL for individual loans begins with the use of normal credit review procedures to identify whether a loan no longer shares similar risk characteristics with other pooled loans and, therefore, should be individually assessed. We individually evaluate all commercial loans that meet the following criteria: (1) when it is determined that foreclosure is probable, (2) substandard, doubtful and nonperforming loans when repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, or (3) when it is determined by management that a loan does not share similar risk characteristics with other loans. Credit loss estimates are calculated based on the following three acceptable methods for measuring the ACL: (1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the dateloan’s original effective interest rate; (2) the loan’s observable market price; or (3) the fair value of adoption, but the cumulative effect adjustmentcollateral when the loan is collateral dependent. Our individual loan evaluations consist primarily of the fair value of collateral method because most of our loans are collateral dependent. Collateral values are reduced to retained earningsconsider expected disposition costs when appropriate. A charge-off is recorded when the estimated fair value of the loan is less than the loan balance.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Unfunded Loan Commitments
The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Bank is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Bank. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments is included in accounts payable and other liabilities in the Company’s Statement of Financial Condition and is adjusted through credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur, the amount of funding that will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Held-to-Maturity Securities
The Company accounts for its held-to-maturity securities in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 326-20, Financial Instruments – Credit Loss – Measured at Amortized Cost, which requires that the Company measure expected credit losses on held-to-maturity debt securities on a collective basis by major security type. The estimate of expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
The Company classifies its held-to-maturity debt securities into the following major security types: obligations of U.S. government agencies, obligations of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, private label mortgage-backed securities, obligations of state and political subdivisions and corporate securities. Credit ratings of held-to-maturity debt securities, which are a significant input in calculating the expected credit loss, are reviewed on a quarterly basis. Based on the credit ratings of our held-to-maturity securities and our historical experience of no losses, the Company determined that an allowance for credit losses on its’ held-to-maturity portfolio is not required.
Accrued interest receivable on held-to-maturity debt securities totaled $215 thousand as of December 31, 2023 and is included within accrued interest receivable on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. This amount is excluded from the estimate of expected credit losses. Generally, held-to-maturity debt securities are classified as nonaccrual when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about the further collectability of principal or interest. When held-to-maturity debt securities are placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income is reversed against interest income.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Available-for-Sale Securities
The Company measures expected credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities when the Bank intends to sell, or when it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the amortized cost basis of the security is written down to fair value through income. For available-for-sale debt securities that do not meet the previously mentioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this evaluation indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the changecredit loss, equal to the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income.
The ACL on available-for-sale debt securities is included within the recorded balance of securities available-for-sale on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Changes in the allowance for credit losses upon CECL adoption will not have a material effectare recorded within provision for credit losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Losses are charged against the allowance when the Company believes the collectability of an available-for-sale security is in jeopardy or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.
Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities totaled $26 thousand as of December 31, 2023 and is included within accrued interest receivable on the Company’s capital and regulatory capital amounts and ratios.
In March 2022,Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. This amount is excluded from the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) and Vintage Disclosures estimate of expected credit losses. Generally, available-for-sale debt securities are classified as an updatenonaccrual when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about the further collectability of principal or interest. When available-for-sale debt securities are placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326). The amendments in this ASU eliminate the TDR recognition and measurement guidance and, instead, require that an entity evaluate (consistent with the accounting for other loan modifications) whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The amendments enhance existing disclosure requirements and introduce new requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, ASU 2022-02 requires that an entity disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 will be effective for the Company with its adoption of ASU 2016-13.income is reversed against interest income.
NOTE C - CONTINGENCIES

In the opinion of management, the resolution of this litigation, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.operations as presented in this report.

The Company has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") for the benefit of employees who meet certain eligibility requirements. The ESOP trust purchases shares of common stock in the open market using proceeds of a loan from the Company. The loan is secured by shares of the Company’s stock. The Bank makes cash contributions to the ESOP on an annual basis sufficient to enable the ESOP to make the required loan payments to the Company. As the debt is repaid, shares are released as collateral and allocated to qualified employees. Accordingly, the shares pledged as collateral are reported as unearned ESOP shares in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company accounts for its ESOP in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Employer’s Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans.” As shares are released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for earnings per share computations.
In connection with the Company’s second-step stock offering during its fiscal year ending September 30, 2021, the ESOP trustees purchased 312,800 shares of the Company’s common stock for $3.4 million, reflecting an average cost per share of $10.77.

NOTE G – 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 securities available-for-sale and the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets or liabilities on a non-recurring basis, such as held-to-maturity securities, mortgage servicing rights, loans receivable and OREO. These non-recurring fair value adjustments involve the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
In accordance with ASC 820, the Company groups its assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:
Level 1 - | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. | |
Level 2 - | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. | |
Level 3 - | Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. The results cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability. |
The Company based its fair values on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Securities available-for-sale
The securities available-for-sale portfolio is carried at estimated fair value on a recurring basis, with any unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income/loss in stockholders’ equity. The securities available-for-sale portfolio consists of U.S government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities. The fair values of these securities are obtained from an independent nationally recognized pricing service. An independent pricing service provides the Company with prices which are categorized as Level 2, as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets are generally not available for the securities in the Company’s portfolio. Various modeling techniques are used to determine pricing for Company’s mortgage-backed securities, including option pricing and discounted cash flow models. The inputs to these models include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data.
Derivatives
Magyar Bank executes interest rate swaps with commercial lending customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. The fair values of such derivatives are based on valuation models from a third party using current market terms (including interest rates and fees), the remaining terms of the agreements and the credit worthiness of the counter party as of the measurement date (Level 2).
The following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine the carrying value of the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
ImpairedCollateral Dependent Loans
Loans which meet certain criteriaCollateral dependent loans are evaluated individually for impairment. A loan is impaired when, based on current informationmeasured and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual termsreported at fair value through specific allocations of the loan agreement. All amounts due according to the contractual terms means that both the contractual interest and principal payments of a loan will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement. Three impairment measurement methods are used, depending upon the collateral securing the asset: 1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate (the rate of return implicit in the loan); 2) the asset’s observable market price; or 3)allowance for credit losses based on the fair value of the collateral, less anticipated selling and disposition costs, if the asset is collateral dependent. The regulatory agencies require the last method for loans from which repayment is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral. The Company’s impaired loans are generally collateral dependent and, as such, are carried at the estimated fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Fair value is estimated through current appraisals, and adjusted by management as necessary, to reflect current market conditions and, as such, are generally classified as Level 3.
Appraisals of collateral securing impaired loans are conducted by approved, qualified, and independent third-party appraisers. Such appraisals are ordered via the Company’s credit administration department, independent from the lender who originated the loan, once the loan is deemed impaired, as described in the previous paragraph. Impaired loans are generally re-evaluated with an updated appraisal within one year of the last appraisal. The Company discounts the appraised “as is” value of the collateral for estimated selling and disposition costs and compares the resulting fair value of collateral to the outstanding loan amount. If the outstanding loan amount is greater than the discounted fair value, the Company requires a reduction in the outstanding loan balance or additional collateral before considering an extension to the loan. If the borrower is unwilling or unable to reduce the loan balance or increase the collateral securing the loan, it is deemed impaired and the difference between the loan amount and the fair value of collateral, net of estimated selling and disposition costs, is charged off through a reduction of the allowance for loan loss.
The following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine the carrying value of the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at June 30,December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022.2023.

The following presents the carrying amount, fair value, and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments carried at cost or amortized cost as of June 30,December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022.2023. For short-term financial assets such as cash and cash equivalents and accrued interest receivable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the relatively short time between the origination of the instrument and its expected realization. For financial liabilities such as interest-bearing demand, NOW, and money market savings deposits, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to these products being payable on demand and having no stated maturity.

The Company reviews its investment portfolio on a quarterly basis for indications of impairment.credit losses. This review includes analyzing the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been lower than the cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events which may influence the operations of the issuer and the intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the market. The Company evaluates its intent and ability to hold debt securities based upon its investment strategy for the particular type of security and its cash flow needs, liquidity position, capital adequacy and interest rate risk position. In addition, the risk of future other-than-temporary impairmentcredit losses may be influenced by prolonged recession in the U.S. economy, changes in real estate values and interest deferrals.

The segments of the Company’s loan portfolio are disaggregated to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance. The residential mortgage loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes: first lien, amortizing term loans, and the combination of second lien amortizing term loans and home equity lines of credit. The commercial loan segment is further disaggregated into three classes: loans secured by multifamily structures, loans secured by owner-occupied commercial structures, and loans secured by non-owner occupied nonresidential properties. The construction loan segment consists primarily of developers or investors for the purpose of acquiring, developing and constructing residential or commercial structures and to a lesser extent one-to-four family residential construction loans made to individuals for the acquisition of and/or construction on a lot or lots on which a residential dwelling is to be built. Construction loans to developers and investors have a higher risk profile because the ultimate buyer, once development is completed, is generally not known at the time of the loan. The commercial business loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers and consists primarily of revolving lines of credit.credit and loans partially guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The consumer loan segment consists primarily of stock-secured installment loans, but also includes unsecured personal loans and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts.
Management evaluates individual loans in all segments for possible impairment if the loan either is in nonaccrual status, or is risk rated Substandard and is 90 days or more past due. Loans are considered to be 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 evaluating impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. 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 record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.
Once the determination has been made that a loan is impaired, the recorded investment in the loan is compared to the fair value of the loan using one of three methods: (a) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (b) the loan’s current observable market price; or (c) the fair value of the collateral securing the loan, less anticipated selling and disposition costs. The method is selected on a loan-by loan basis, with management primarily utilizing the fair value of collateral method. If there is a shortfall between the fair value of the loan and the recorded investment in the loan, the Company charges the difference to the allowance for loan loss as a charge-off and carries the impaired loan on its books at fair value. It is the Company’s policy to evaluate impaired loans on an annual basis to ensure the recorded investment in a loan does not exceed its fair value.
The following table presents impaired loans by class, segregated by those for which a specific allowance was required and those for which a specific allowance was not necessary for the periods presented:

Management uses a ten point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six categories are considered not criticized, and are aggregated as “Pass” rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. 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. All loans greater than three months past due are considered Substandard. Any portion of a loan that has been charged off is placed in the Loss category.
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 with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as severe delinquency, bankruptcy, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. The Company’s Commercial Loan Officers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis. The Company’s Asset Review Committee performs monthly reviews of all commercial relationships internally rated 6 (“Watch”) or worse. Confirmation of the appropriate risk grade is performed by an external loan review company that semi-annually reviews and assesses loans within the portfolio. Generally, the external consultant reviews commercial relationships greater than $500,000 and/or criticized relationships greater than $250,000. Detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, are performed on loans classified as Substandard on a monthly basis.
The following table presents the classes of the loan portfolio by origination year summarized by the aggregate Pass and the criticized categories of Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful for loans subject to the Company’s internal risk rating system and by performing status for all other loans as of December 31, 2023.

The Company’s methodology for determining the ALL is based on the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35 for loans individually evaluated for impairment (discussed above) and ASC Subtopic 450-20 for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, as well as the Interagency Policy Statements on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and other bank regulatory guidance.
Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are analyzed with general allowances being made as appropriate. For general allowances, historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio. These historical loss amounts are modified by other qualitative and economic factors.

An allowance for credit losses associated with(“ACL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the existing loan pools to differ from historical loss experience. The additional factors that are evaluated quarterly and updated using information obtained from internal, regulatory, and governmental sources include: national and local economic trends and conditions; levels of and trends in delinquency rates and non-accrual loans; trends in volumes and terms of loans; effects of changes in lending policies; experience, ability, and depth of lending staff; value of underlying collateral; and concentrations of credit from a loan type, industry and/or geographic standpoint.
portfolio. Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis using a defined, consistently applied process in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALL.ACL. When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ALL.ACL. Since loans individually evaluated for impairment are promptly written down to their fair value, typically there is no portion of the ALLACL for loans individually evaluated for impairment.
ASU 2016-13 requires estimated credit losses on loans to be determined based on an expected life of loan model, as compared to an incurred loss model (in effect for periods prior to October 1, 2023). Accordingly, the allowance for losses disclosures subsequent to October 1, 2023 are not always comparable to prior dates. In addition, certain new disclosures required under ASU 2016-13 are not applicable to prior periods. As a result, the following tables present disclosures separately for each period, where appropriate. New disclosures required under ASU 2016-13 are only shown for the current period. Please refer to Note B “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for a summary of the impact of adopting the provisions of ASU 2016-13 on October 1, 2023.
The following tables set forth the allocation of the Bank’s allowance for credit losses by loan category at the dates indicated. The portion of the credit loss allowance allocated to each loan category does not represent the total available for future losses which may occur within the loan category since the total credit loss allowance is a valuation allocation applicable to the entire loan portfolio. The Company generally charges-off the collateral or discounted cash flow deficiency on all loans at 90 days past due and all loans rated substandard or worse that are 90 days past due.
The following table summarizes the ALLpresents, by loan category, the changes in the allowance for credit losses for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and the related activityallowance for loan losses for the ninethree months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:December 31, 2022.

During the three months ended December 31, 2023 and exclusive of the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the changes in the provision for credit losses for each portfolio of loans were primarily due to fluctuations in the outstanding balance of each segment of loans collectively evaluated for impairment. Specifically, we experienced significant growth in our commercial real estate and construction loan portfolios during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and a corresponding increase in the provision for credit losses for these portfolios. The overall increase in the allowance during the three months ended December 31, 2023 is attributed to the previously mentioned growth in our commercial real estate and construction portfolios, partially offset by improved economic metrics with continued low levels of net charge-offs and a decrease in non-performing assets.
The following tables summarize the ALLtable presents, by loan category, segregated into the amount required for loans individually evaluated for impairment and the amount required for loans collectively evaluated for impairment as of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022: 2023.

Management believesthere were no TDRs that the segmentation of the loan portfolio into homogeneous pools and the related historical loss ratios and other qualitative factors, as well as the consistency in the application of assumptions, result in an ALL that is representative of the risk found in the components of the portfolio at any given date.
A TDR is a loan that has been modified whereby the Bank has agreed to make certain concessions to a borrower to meet the needs of both the borrower and the Bank to maximize the ultimate recovery of a loan. TDR occurs when a borrower is experiencing, or is expected to experience, financial difficulties and the loan is modified using a modification that would otherwise not be granted to the borrower. The types of concessions granted generally include, but are not limited to, interest rate reductions, limitations on the accrued interest charged, term extensions, and deferment of principal.
A default on a TDR loan for purposes of this disclosure occurs when a borrower is 90 days past due or a foreclosure or repossession of the applicable collateral has occurredsubsequently defaulted within twelve months of the restructure. The Company did not have any TDR loans default during the three or nine months ended June 30, 2023.modification.

NOTE L - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
The Company may use derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps and interest rate floors and caps, as part of its interest rate risk management. Interest rate caps and floors are agreements whereby one party agrees to pay or receive a floating rate of interest on a notional principal amount for a predetermined period of time if certain market interest rate thresholds are met. The Company considers the credit risk inherent in these contracts to be negligible. As of June 30,December 31, 2023, the Company did not hold any interest rate floors or collars.
The Company is a party to interest rate derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments. Under a program, the Company executes interest rate swaps with commercial lending customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. These interest rate swaps with customers are simultaneously offset by interest rate swaps that the Company executes with a third-party financial institution, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Because the interest rate swaps associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and the offsetting swaps are recognized directly in earnings. The changes in the fair value of the swaps offset each other, except for the credit risk of the counterparties, which is determined by taking into consideration the risk rating, probability of default and loss given default for all counterparties. The Company was not required to pledge any collateral for its interest rate swaps with financial institutions at June 30,December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022.2023.
The following table presents summary information regarding these derivatives as of June 30,December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022.2023.

Total non-performing loans increased $725,000, or 25.6%, to $3.6 million at June 30, 2023 from $2.8 million at September 30, 2022. The increase was attributable to two commercial real estate loans totaling $2.6 million and one residential mortgage loan totaling $171,000, partially offset by repayments totaling $2.1 million on a non-performing construction loan.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30,December 31, 2023 and 2022
Net Income. Net income decreased $199,000,$158,000, or 9.4%8.7%, to $1.9 million$1,652,000 for the three monththree-month period ended June 30,December 31, 2023 compared with net income of $2.1 million$1,810,000 for the three monththree-month period ended June 30,December 31, 2022. The decrease was due to lower net interesthigher provisions for credit loss and dividend income, lower other income, and higher other expenses, partially offset by lower provisions for loan loss.
Net Interest and Dividend Income. Net interest and dividend income decreased $74,000, or 1.1%, to $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was attributable to a 26 basis point decrease in the Company’s net interest margin to 3.46% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from 3.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, partially offset by a $59.4 million increase in the average balance of loans receivable, net, between the periods.
Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income increased $2.3 million, or 30.8%, to $9.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared with $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was attributable to a 92 basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets to 4.91% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from 3.99% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as well as a $48.5 million, or 6.5%, increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. Higher balances of higher-yielding loans receivable funded with lower yielding interest-earning deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank as well as higher market interest rates contributed to the increase in the Company’s interest and dividend income between periods. Partially offsetting the increases were no Paycheck Protection Program loan fees included in interest income on loans receivable for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared with $98,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
The interest earned on loans receivable, net of allowance for loan loss, increased $2.0 million, or 28.7%, to $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $7.0 million for the same period prior year. The increase resulted from an 80 basis point increase in the yield on loans receivable, net to 5.37% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from 4.57% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as well as a $59.4 million, or 9.6%, increase in the average balance of loans receivable to $675.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $615.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Interest earned on investment securities, including interest-earning deposits and excluding FHLBNY stock, increased $267,000, or 60.8%, to $706,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $439,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was attributable to a 101 basis point increase in the average yield on such assets to 2.33% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from 1.32% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, partially offset by an $11.6 million, or 8.6%, decrease in the average balance of investment securities and interest-earning deposits to $122.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $134.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $2.4 million, or 463.9%, to $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $512,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 177 basis points to 2.19% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared with 0.42% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 resulting primarily from higher cost interest-bearing deposits. In addition, the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $42.9 million, or 8.8%, to $529.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $485.3 during the three months ended June 30, 2022.
The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 176 basis points to 2.12% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 from 0.36% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 due to the higher market interest rate environment while the average balance increased $31.1 million, or 6.6%, to $501.3 million from $470.2 million. As a result, interest paid on interest-bearing deposits increased $2.2 million to $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared with $420,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Interest expense on borrowings increased $147,000, or 159.8%, to $239,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $92,000 at June 30, 2022. Higher market interest rates resulted in a 113 basis point increase in the cost of borrowings to 3.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from 2.30% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The average balance of borrowings increased $11.8 million to $28.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 from $16.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 to fund the growth in the Company’s loans receivable.
Provision for Loan Losses. We establish provisions for loan losses, which are charged to earnings, at a level necessary to absorb known and inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of the consolidated financial statements. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group information and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events occur.
After an evaluation of these factors, the Company recorded an $81,000 credit for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared with a $205,000 provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The lower provision for loan losses resulted from improving economic conditions. The Company recorded $386,000 in loan charge-offs and $1,000 in loan recoveries during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared with no charge-offs or recoveries during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The Company is pursuing the guarantor of the one commercial business loan totaling $386,000 that was charged-off during the quarter.
Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Management reviews the level of the allowance on a quarterly basis, and establishes the provision for loan losses based on the factors set forth in the preceding paragraph. As management evaluates the allowance for loan losses, the increased risk associated with larger non-homogenous construction, commercial real estate and commercial business loans may result in larger additions to the allowance for loan losses in future periods.
Other Income. Other income decreased $55,000, or 8.1%, to $621,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared with $676,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The Company did not record any interest rate swap fees or gains on the sale of OREO during the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared with $76,000 and $67,000, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. In addition, there were lower gains from the sale of Small Business Administration 7(a) loans, which decreased $31,000 to $103,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $134,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Offsetting the decline was higher service charge income, which increased $108,000 to $392,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from higher loan prepayment penalties received with the repayment of commercial loans.
Other Expenses. Other expenses increased $454,000, or 10.2%, to $4.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared with $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher compensation and benefit expense, which increased $265,000, or 9.8%, to $3.0 million, due to stock award and stock option expenses related to the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan and increased director fees resulting from the addition of three new directors on September 22, 2022.

Provision for LoanCredit Losses. We establish provisions for loan losses, which are charged to earnings, at a level necessary to absorb known and inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of the financial statements. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group information and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events occur.
After an evaluation of these factors, theThe Company recorded a provision of $432,000$481,000 for the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2023 compared to $376,000$317,000 for the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2022. The higher provision for loan lossesprovisions resulted from growth in the Company’s loan portfolio during the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2023, as well as increased charge-offs.specifically in commercial real estate and construction loans. The Company recorded $487,000 in net loan charge-offs during the nine months ended June 30, 2023 compared with $54,000$461 in net recoveries during the ninethree months ended June 30, 2022. The Company charged off two commercial business loans totaling $488,000December 31, 2023 compared with $0 in net recoveries during the ninethree months ended June 30, 2023 and is pursuing the guarantors on the loans for collection.
Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Management reviews the level of the allowance on a quarterly basis, and establishes the provision for loan losses based on the factors set forth in the preceding paragraph. As management evaluates the allowance for loan losses, the increased risk associated with larger non-homogenous construction, commercial real estate and commercial business loans may result in larger additions to the allowance for loan losses in future periods.December 31, 2022.
Other Income. Other income decreased $46,000,increased $12,000, or 2.4%2.0%, to $1.9 million$609,000 during the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2023 compared to $1.9 million$597,000 for the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2022. The Company did not record anyHigher service charge income from loan prepayment penalties and a $60,000 gain on the sale of land during the quarter were partially offset by lower interest rate swap fees and gains on the sale of OREO during the nine months ended June 30, 2023, compared with $67,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. In addition, there were lower gains from the sale of Small Business Administration 7(a) loans, which decreased $68,000 to $485,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 from $553,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022.

Item 1A. | Risk Factors |
Except for the additional risk factors below, thereThere were no material changes to the risk factors relevant to the Company’s operations as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 20222023 filed on December 22, 2022.
Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, such as actual events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults, or non-performance by financial institutions or transactional counterparties, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Actual events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, transactional counterparties or other companies in the financial services industry or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, have in the past and may in the future lead to market-wide liquidity problems. For example, on May 1, 2023, First Republic Bank went into receivership and its deposits and substantially all of its assets were acquired by JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association. Similarly, on March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank went into receivership, and on March 12, Signature Bank went into receivership.
Inflation and rapid increases in interest rates have led to a decline in the trading value of previously issued government securities with interest rates below current market interest rates. Although the Treasury, FDIC and Federal Reserve Board have announced a program to provide up to $25 billion of loans to financial institutions secured by certain of such government securities held by financial institutions to mitigate the risk of potential losses on the sale of such instruments, widespread demands for customer withdrawals or other liquidity needs of financial institutions for immediately liquidity may exceed the capacity of such program. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the Treasury, FDIC and Federal Reserve Board will provide access to uninsured funds in the future in the event of the closure of other banks or financial institutions, or that they would do so in a timely fashion.
Rising Interest Rates Have Decreased the Value of the Company’s Securities Portfolio, and the Company Would Realize Losses if it Was Required to Sell Such Securities to Meet Liquidity Needs
As a result of inflationary pressures and the resulting rapid increases in interest rates over the last year, the trading value of previously issued government and other fixed income securities has declined significantly. These securities make up a majority of the securities portfolio of most banks in the U.S., including the Company’s, resulting in unrealized losses embedded in the securities portfolios. While the Company does not currently intend to sell these securities, if the Company were required to sell such securities to meet liquidity needs, it may incur losses, which could impair the Company’s capital, financial condition, and results of operations and require the Company to raise additional capital on unfavorable terms, thereby negatively impacting its profitability. While the Company has taken actions to maximize its funding sources, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or sufficient in the event of sudden liquidity needs. Furthermore, while the Federal Reserve Board has announced a Bank Term Funding Program available to eligible depository institutions secured by U.S. treasuries, agency debt and mortgage-backed securities, and other qualifying assets as collateral at par, to mitigate the risk of potential losses on the sale of such instruments, there is no guarantee that such programs will be effective in addressing liquidity needs as they arise.15, 2023.
