For the same period last year, the Company reported net income of $86,000, or $.07 basic and diluted earnings per common share. The quarterly net loss resulted from non-recurring conversion-related expenses which generated much higher non-interest expense.

Total interest income for the quarter was down $3,000, or less than 1%. Total interest expense increased $30,000, or 27%. Consequently, net interest income before provisions for loan losses decreased $34,000, or 5% for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same quarter in 2017.

Provision for loan losses was $12,000 during fourth quarter 2018, compared to $20,000 for the same period a year earlier. Net loan losses totaled $2,000 for the most recent quarter, and were $18,000 a year ago. A regular analysis of the allowance for loan losses indicated the reserve was adequate at June 30, 2018. This analysis included reviewing changes in volume, composition and quality of the loan portfolio, as well as actual loan loss experience.

Non-interest income was $118,000 for the 3 months ended June 30, 2018. Non-interest income was $132,000 for the same period a year earlier. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $10,000 compared to the same period in 2017.

In addition, during the quarter-ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized $83,000 of impairment and depreciation expense for assets no longer in use. These non-recurring expense items are not expected to adversely impact Company financial statements in future periods.

For the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2018, the Company reported net income of $159,000, or $.14 basic and diluted earnings per common share. Excluding $265,000 of non-recurring expenses and related tax benefit, net income would have been $346,000 or $.30 basic and diluted earnings per common share. The Company reported earnings of $336,000 or $.29 basic and diluted earnings per common share for fiscal 2017.

Net interest income before provisions for loan losses increased $6,000, or less than 1% for fiscal year 2018. Total interest income increased nearly $75,000, or 2%, but was substantially offset by a $69,000, or 16% increase in interest expense for the year.

For 2018, no gains on investment sales were realized and gains on sales of loans totaled $6,000.

Non-interest expense increased $188,000 or 7%, to $3.0 million. As mentioned above, non-recurring expenses led to higher non-interest expense. One-time data system conversion-related charges and associated expenses totaled $182,000. In addition, during the quarter-ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized $83,000 of impairment and depreciation expense for assets no longer in use.

At June 30, 2018, total assets were $73.3 million, compared to $69.7 million at June 30, 2017. During the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, loans outstanding increased $4.6 million, or 10%, to $52.3 million. Cash and cash equivalents and interest-bearing time deposits increased $963,000, from $5.5 million at June 30, 2017 to $6.5 million at June 30, 2018.

Allowances for loan losses were $485,000 at June 30, 2018, and $468,000 at June 30, 2017. Loan loss allowances equaled 0.93% of total loans at June 30, 2018, and 0.98% of total loans a year earlier. Periodic provisions to allowances for loan losses reflect management’s view of risk in the Company’s entire loan portfolio due to a number of dynamic factors, including current economic conditions, quantity of outstanding loans, and loan delinquency trends. Management considered the level of allowances for loan losses at June 30, 2018 adequate to cover probable incurred losses inherent in the loan portfolio at that date.

At June 30, 2018, total deposits were $50.1 million, compared to $50.2 million twelve months earlier. Total borrowings increased to $14.0 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $10.0 million a year earlier.

Factors impacting shareholder equity during fiscal 2018 included net income, four quarterly cash dividends totaling $.16 per share, and a decrease from $11,000 accumulated other comprehensive income at June 30, 2017 to $91,000 accumulated other comprehensive loss at June 30, 2018.
