  • Total assets decreased $66.7 million, or 6.9%, to $904.9 million at December 31, 2025 from $971.5 million at December 31, 2024, largely due to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and loans, offset by an increase in securities available for sale.

  • Cash and cash equivalents decreased $16.6 million, or 31.8%, to $35.6 million at December 31, 2025 from $52.2 million at December 31, 2024, due to cash used to purchase securities available for sale.

  • Securities available for sale increased $17.8 million, or 12.7%, to $158.1 million at December 31, 2025 from $140.3 million at December 31, 2024.  Average yields on securities available for sale increased 143 basis points from 3.88% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, to 5.31% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, due to the balance sheet restructuring that took place in December 2024.

  • Net loans decreased $64.1 million, or 9.0%, to $647.6 million at December 31, 2025 from $711.7 million at December 31, 2024 due to decreases in residential, multi-family, commercial and industrial and construction loans, offset by an increase in commercial real estate loans. Average yields on net loans increased 19 basis points from 4.69% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, to 4.88% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 due to a higher proportion of commercial real estate loans.

The average rate paid on deposits decreased 43 basis points to 3.30% for 2025 from 3.73% for 2024 due to lower market interest rates and an increase in NOW accounts, which increased $10.5 million, or 19.0%, to $65.5 million at December 31, 2025 from $55.0 million at December 31, 2024.

After navigating a challenging period, we made significant strides returning to profitability with 2025 net income of $2.1 million compared to a loss of $2.2 million the prior year.  With a more resilient balance sheet and a clear focus on responsible growth, we are well positioned to deliver long-term value for our shareholders and a meaningful impact across our communities.

Interest expense decreased $1.4 million, or 17.7%, from $8.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 to $6.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 due to lower costs on interest-bearing liabilities and a $72.1 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities from $805.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 to $733.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

We recorded a $218,000 recovery for credit losses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to no provision for credit losses for the three-month period ended December 31, 2025.  The recovery in the fourth quarter of 2024 and no provisions in the fourth quarter of 2025 reflects the decrease in the loan portfolio and no charge-offs.

Non-interest income decreased bthe193,000, or 46.1%, to $226,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 from $419,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2024.  Gain on sale of loans decreased $20,000, or 100.0%, due to no sales during 2025 and gain on sale of assets in 2024 was higher by $68,000 as proceeds from the sale-leaseback transaction exceeded the loss on securities. Other income decreased $96,000 due to a net loss on the investment in a limited partnership.

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, non-interest expense increased $229,000, or 6.3%, over the comparable December 31, 2024 period. Occupancy and equipment increased $380,000, or 109.0%, due to higher lease expense associated with the sale leaseback transaction that took place in December 2024. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $10,000, or 0.4%, due to lower headcount. Professional fees increased $15,000, or 13.6%, due to higher legal costs in 2025. FDIC insurance premiums decreased $16,000, or 14.0%, due to a lower assessment rate in 2025. Data processing expense decreased $33,000, or 11.9%, due to lower processing costs. Director fees decreased $104,000, or 66.7%, due to lower pension expense. The decrease in advertising expense of $20,000, or 32.4%, was due to reduced promotions for branch locations and less promotions on deposit and loan products. Other expense increased $15,000, or 7.1%, due to higher miscellaneous expenses.

Income tax expense decreased $460,000, or 102.3%, to a benefit of $11,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 from an expense of $450,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was due to tax reserves on uncertain deferred tax assets that were required in 2024.

Non-interest income increased by $420,000, or 31.1%, primarily due to an increase in bank owned life insurance of $564,000, or 64.7%, due to collection of death proceeds in 2025 offset by a decrease of $96,000 in other income due to a net loss on the investment in a limited partnership.

Balance Sheet Analysis

Total assets were $904.9 million at December 31, 2025, representing a decrease of $66.7 million, or 6.9%, from December 31, 2024.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased $16.6 million during the period primarily due to purchases of securities available for sale. Net loans decreased $64.1 million, or 9.0%, due to $105.1 million in repayments, partially offset by new production of $41.0 million. This resulted in a $28.9 million decrease in the balance of residential loans, a $21.1 million decrease in construction loans, a $3.0 decrease in commercial and industrial loans and a decrease of $15.2 million in multi-family loans. These decreases were offset by a $4.0 million increase in commercial real estate loans.  Due to the interest rate environment, we have seen a decrease in demand for residential and construction loans, which have been primary drivers of our loan growth in recent periods.  Securities available for sale increased $17.8 million or 12.7%, due to the purchases of mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds. The Company also made a $2.5 million equity investment as part of a $10 million commitment to fund a limited partnership that invests in sale leaseback transactions.

Delinquent loans increased $13.3 million to $27.6 million, or 3.1% of total loans, at December 31, 2025. The increase was mostly due to three commercial real estate loans with a balance of $13.7 million with no specific reserves needed. During the same timeframe, non-performing assets decreased to $13.1 million and were 1.5% of total assets at December 31, 2025. No loans were charged-off during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.  The Company’s allowance for credit losses was 0.39% of total loans and 18.7% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2025 compared to 0.37% of total loans and 18.8% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2024.  At December 31, 2025, $10.9 million, or 83.2%, of the total non-performing loans consisted of one construction loan with a loan -to-value of 45%, which required no specific reserve. The Bank has limited exposure to commercial real estate loans secured by office space.

Total liabilities decreased $70.3 million, or 8.4%, to $764.0 million mainly due to a $78.9 million decrease in borrowings offset by a $10.3 million increase in deposits.  Total deposits increased $10.3 million, or 1.6%, to $652.4 million at December 31, 2025 from $642.2 million at December 31, 2024.  The increase in deposits reflected an increase in certificate of deposit accounts, which increased by $11.0 million to $493.9 million from $482.9 million at December 31, 2024, an increase in NOW deposits of $10.5 million to $65.5 million at December 31, 2025 from $55.0 million at December 31, 2024 and an increase in savings accounts which increased by $7.6 million from $47.0 million at December 31, 2024 to $54.6 million at December 31, 2025. These increases were offset by a decrease in money market deposit accounts, which decreased by $14.3 million to $10.2 million from $24.6 million at December 31, 2024 and by a decrease in noninterest bearing demand accounts, which decreased by $4.5 million from $32.7 million at December 31, 2024 to $28.2 million at December 31, 2025.  At December 31, 2025, brokered deposits were $109.7 million or 16.8% of deposits and municipal deposits were $45.1 million or 6.9% of deposits.  At December 31, 2025, uninsured deposits represented 6.9% of the Bank’s total deposits. Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $78.9 million, or 45.8% due to the increase in deposits and the decrease in assets. Total borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank is $232.9 million, of which $93.3 million is advanced.

Total stockholders’ equity increased $3.6 million to $140.9 million at December 31, 2025, from $137.3 million at December 31, 2024. The increase was due to a reduction in the accumulated other comprehensive loss on the securities portfolio of $1.6 million and net income of $2.1 million, offset by the repurchase of 123,603 shares of stock at a total cost of $1.1 million. At December 31, 2025, the Company’s ratio of average stockholders’ equity-to-average total assets was 15.13%, compared to 14.10% at December 31, 2024.

Average Balance Sheets and Related Yields and Rates 

The following tables present information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting annualized average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Average balances have been calculated using daily balances. Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances only. Loan fees are included in interest income on loans and are not material.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on net interest income. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. Changes attributable to changes in both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionally based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.
