Balance Sheet: December 31, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018
Total assets increased $33.7 million, or 10.5%, to $354.6 million at December 31, 2019, from $320.9 million at December 31, 2018. The growth in total assets was primarily due to increases of $23.0 million in loans receivable, $22.5 million in loans held for sale, $6.0 million in right-of-use asset, $3.6 million in cash and cash equivalents offset by a decrease of $23.6 million in available-for-sale and held-to-maturity investment securities. Included in total assets at December 31, 2019 is a right-of-use asset of $6.0 million as part of the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) on July 1, 2019, which required recognition of the right-to-use asset and associated lease liability.
Total liabilities increased $31.5 million, or 10.9%, to $321.0 million at December 31, 2019, from $289.5 million at December 31, 2018. The increase in total liabilities was primarily from a $17.0 million increase in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, $10.3 million increase in deposits and $6.0 million increase in operating lease liabilities offset by a $2.5 million decrease in securities sold under agreements to repurchase. Deposits increased $10.3 million from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2018 primarily as a result of a $15.2 million increase in our core deposits offset by $4.9 million decrease in certificate of deposits. Our core deposits (consisting of demand deposits, money market deposit accounts, passbook and statement savings accounts, and checking accounts) increased $15.2 million, or 7.6 %, to $215.5 million at December 31, 2019 from $200.3 million at December 31, 2018. Offsetting this increase, was a decrease of $4.9 million, or 6.7% in certificates of deposit to $68.3 million at December 31, 2019 from $73.2 million at December 31, 2018. Included in total liabilities at December 31, 2019 is $6.0 million in operating lease liabilities as part of the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) on July 1, 2019.
Total shareholders’ equity increased $2.2 million, or 7.0%, to $33.6 million at December 31, 2019 compared to $31.4 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to net income of $1.0 million, $530,000 increase in other comprehensive income due to the fair value adjustments, net of deferred tax, on the investment securities available-for-sale portfolio combined with $242,000 increase in share based compensation expense and ESOP shares committed to be released of $132,000. Included in retained earnings at December 31, 2019, is an adjustment of $277,000 for the recognition of the deferred gain on sale-leaseback of buildings as part of the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).

The increase in non-interest income of $892,000 to $1.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 compared to $676,000 for the same period in 2018 was primarily due to a $1.4 million increase in gain on sales of loans, net offset by a decrease of $527,000 in loss from derivative instruments.

The increase for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2018 was primarily a result of increases of $501,000 in salaries and employee benefits, $199,000 in professional fees and other expenses and $124,000 in occupancy expense. Salaries and employee benefits increased as full time equivalent (FTE) employees increased to ninety-seven as of December 31, 2019 from seventy-two as of December 31, 2018 primarily as a result because of the expansion of the Company’s lending and business banking operations.
