Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Asset Growth: Total assets increased 4.8% ($45.8 million), driven primarily by a $77.2 million increase in loans receivable, offset by decreases in cash, investment securities, and bank-owned life insurance (BOLI).
- Loan Portfolio Shift: Commercial real estate (CRE) loans grew 15.6% to $533.2 million, now comprising 62.1% of the total portfolio. Construction and land loans increased 28.9%. Conversely, commercial business loans declined 16.5%.
- Profitability: Net income rose 25.4% to $9.8 million, fueled by a $3.9 million increase in net interest income. Net interest margin expanded 20 basis points.
- Provision for Credit Losses: The provision for credit losses on loans increased to $653 thousand from $182 thousand, reflecting portfolio growth in higher expected loss rate segments (CRE and construction). However, a $251 thousand recovery in the allowance for unfunded commitments offset some of this expense.
- Asset Quality: Non-performing loans increased to $451 thousand, consisting entirely of residential and home equity loans. Non-performing CRE loans were $0.
- Deposits: Total deposits grew 2.2%. Certificates of deposit (CDs) increased significantly ($50.3 million), while money market accounts declined ($35.6 million).
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Outlook: Management expects to continue increasing commercial real estate and commercial business loans throughout fiscal year 2026 while managing non-interest expenses to enhance profitability.
Capital Management: The Company declared five dividends totaling $0.29 per share in 2025 and intends to continue regular quarterly dividends. A new stock repurchase program was authorized in May 2025 for up to 5% of outstanding shares (approx. 323,547 shares).
Liquidity: Day 1 available liquidity was 46.6% of non-contractual funding. The Company has significant borrowing capacity remaining with the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ($164.1 million) and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ($77.5 million).
Risks and Contingencies:

- Cybersecurity: No material cybersecurity incidents occurred during the fiscal year, though the Company maintains an Incident Response Plan.

Investor Verification Checklist
- CRE Exposure: Verify the specific performance of the $299 million non-owner occupied CRE portfolio, which represents 56.1% of total CRE loans.
- Deposit Stability: Assess the retention rate of the $80.6 million in CDs maturing within one year and the cost of replacing them if they do not roll over.
- Provision Adequacy: Review the qualitative adjustments made to the Allowance for Credit Losses, particularly regarding the growth in construction and CRE segments.
- Stock Repurchase Execution: Monitor the pace and pricing of the new 5% stock repurchase program authorized in May 2025.
- Uninsured Deposits: Note that $127.9 million of deposits exceeded FDIC insurance limits and were not collateralized.
