注1。 | 重要會計政策摘要 (未經審計) |
業務描述
第五區銀行股份有限公司(「第五區銀行股份有限公司」或「公司」)成立於2024年2月15日,是一家馬里蘭公司,旨在充當第五區儲蓄銀行(「第五區」或「銀行」)的銀行控股公司,與銀行從相互轉變爲股份組織形式(「轉變」)有關。 轉變工作於2024年7月31日完成。 與轉變相關,第五區銀行股份有限公司收購
銀行是一家聯邦特許股票儲蓄銀行,吸收來自普通公衆的存款,主要用這些存款發放以居民自住家庭爲抵押的貸款。銀行的主要監管機構是美國國家貨幣監理局(OCC)。銀行的活動由位於新奧爾良大區的分支機構向銀行客戶提供;但是,貸款和存款客戶分散在更廣泛的地理區域,覆蓋路易斯安那州東南部。該銀行作爲
呈現基礎
公司的會計和報告政策與美國通用會計準則(U.S. GAAP)以及銀行業內主流做法一致。
管理層認爲,附帶的未經審計的基本財務報表已經進行了必要的調整,以公平地展示截至2024年9月30日和2023年12月31日的公司財務狀況,截至2024年9月30日和2023年的三個月和九個月的經營業績,以及截至2024年9月30日和2023年的現金流量。所有調整均爲正常和經常性質,並且是附帶的未經審計的合併財務報表中唯一包括的調整。中期結果未必能夠反映全年的結果。
合併原則
截至2024年9月30日的合併基本報表包括第五區域銀行公司及其全資子公司第五區域的金額。所有公司內部交易和餘額已被消除。
截至2023年9月30日的基本報表代表僅銀行,因爲轉換爲股份制形式,包括第五區域銀行公司的形成,已於2024年7月31日完成。在此提及的有關「公司」的內容,應該是指在股份轉換完成之前的「銀行」。
8
估算值的使用
根據美國公認會計原則編制財務報表要求管理層做出估算和假設,這些估計和假設會影響財務報表日報告的資產負債金額和或有資產負債的披露以及報告期內報告的收入和支出金額。實際結果可能與這些估計值有所不同。
在短期內特別容易受到重大變化的實質性估計與信用損失備抵額、遞延稅收和金融工具公允價值的估值有關。
信貸損失備抵是否充足的確定所依據的估算值特別容易受到經濟環境和市場條件重大變化的影響。在確定貸款和無準備金承付款的估計損失方面,管理層需要對大量抵押品進行獨立評估。儘管管理層利用現有信息確認貸款損失,但根據當地經濟條件的變化,可能需要進一步減少貸款的賬面金額。此外,作爲審查程序不可分割的一部分,監管機構定期審查貸款的估計損失。根據此類審查,公司可能會根據對審查時所獲得信息的判斷,決定確認額外損失。由於這些因素,估計的貸款損失有可能在短期內發生重大變化。但是,無法估計合理可能的變更金額。
現金和現金等價物
就合併現金流量表而言,現金和現金等價物包括手頭現金、現金項目、銀行應付金額、原始到期日爲90天或更短的其他金融機構的計息存款以及出售的聯邦基金。通常,聯邦基金的銷售期限爲一天。
來自銀行的現金和應付賬款包括總額約爲 $ 的銀行存款帳戶
公司可能需要在聯邦儲備銀行維持現金儲備。該要求取決於公司的手頭現金或非計息餘額。有
投資證券
歸類爲持有至到期的債務證券是指無論市場狀況、流動性需求或總體經濟狀況的變化如何,公司都有意和能力持有至到期的債務證券。這些證券按成本記賬,並根據溢價的攤銷和折扣的增加進行調整。購買溢價和折扣使用證券條款的實際利息法在利息收入中確認,證券條款確定爲保費的追加日和折扣的到期日。該公司持有
歸類爲可供出售的債務證券是公司打算無限期持有但不一定到期的債務證券。出售歸類爲可供出售的證券的任何決定都將基於各種因素,包括利率的重大變動、公司資產和負債到期組合的變化、流動性需求、監管資本考慮和其他類似因素。這些證券由第三方定價服務機構按估計的公允價值進行記賬
9
未實現收益或虧損不計入淨收益,以累計其他綜合收益(虧損)形式列報,扣除相關的遞延所得稅影響後,該收益作爲股東權益的單獨組成部分列報。
被歸類爲交易的債務證券被收購和持有的主要目的是短期內出售。這些證券由第三方定價服務機構按估計的公允價值記賬,任何未實現的收益或虧損都包含在淨收益中,並在合併運營報表中以非利息收入形式列報。該公司持有
根據所售特定證券的調整後成本基礎確定的債務證券銷售所實現的收益和虧損包含在經營報表的非利息收入中。所有類別投資證券的股息和利息收入,包括攤銷溢價和收購時產生的折扣的增加,均包含在合併運營報表的利息收入中。
限制性股票
限制性股票是聯邦住房貸款銀行(FHLB)和第一國民銀行家銀行(FNBB)的股票,其適銷性受到限制。由於這些投資沒有現成市場,也沒有報價市值,因此公司對這些股票的投資按成本計提。限制性股票投資是否存在減值的確定每年進行一次,包括對發行人當前財務狀況的審查。
信貸損失備抵金——可供出售的投資證券
對於可供出售的證券,管理層每季度評估所有處於未實現虧損狀況的投資,當經濟或市場條件需要進行此類評估時,更頻繁地進行評估。如果公司打算出售證券,則該證券將減記爲公允價值,並將全部虧損記入收益。
如果不滿足上述任一標準,公司將評估公允價值的下降是信貸損失還是其他因素造成的。在進行評估時,公司可以考慮各種因素,包括公允價值在多大程度上低於攤銷成本、標的抵押品的表現、評級機構下調證券評級、發行人未能按期支付利息或本金以及與證券特別相關的不利條件。如果評估表明存在信貸損失,則將預期收取的現金流的現值與證券的攤銷成本基礎進行比較,任何超出部分都記作信用損失備抵金,僅限於公允價值低於攤銷成本基礎的金額,在運營報表中確認爲信用損失準備金。任何未通過信用損失備抵記錄的與信貸無關的未實現虧損均計入其他綜合收益。
信用損失備抵額的變動記作信貸損失費用的準備金(或追回)。當管理層認爲可供出售的證券已確認無法收回時,或者當有關出售意向或要求的任一標準得到滿足時,損失將從信用損失備抵中扣除。在 2024 年 9 月 30 日和 2023 年 12 月 31 日,有
可供出售證券的應計應收利息總額約爲 $
10
貸款應收賬款
管理層有意願和能力持有的貸款,直到可預見的未來、到期或還款時,按照攤銷成本報告。攤銷成本是指未償還的本金餘額,扣除購買溢價和折扣以及遞延費用和成本。
與貸款相關的應計利息應收款總額約爲 $
當貸款逾期90天且缺乏足夠的擔保,並且正在收款過程中,或者當管理層在考慮經濟和業務狀況以及收款努力後認爲,主本金或利息在正常業務過程中無法收回時,利息的累積通常會被停止。逾期狀態基於貸款的合同條款。當預定付款在合同到期日後30天內未收到時,貸款被認爲已逾期。
當貸款被置於非累積狀態時,所有應計利息將會衝抵利息收入。在這些貸款上收到的利息將採用成本回收法進行會計處理,直到符合恢復到累積的條件。在成本回收法下,利息收入在貸款餘額減少到零之前不會被確認。當所有按合同到期的本金和利息金額被結清,且有持續的償還表現,以及未來的付款 reasonably assured,貸款將恢復到累積狀態。
信貸損失準備金 - 應收貸款
信貸損失準備金是一個評估帳戶,從貸款的攤餘成本基礎中扣除,以呈現預期可收回的淨額。當管理層認爲貸款餘額的不可收回性已確認時,貸款將從準備金中核銷。預期的回收不超過先前已覈銷和預計將被覈銷的總金額。應計利息應收款不包含在信貸損失的估算中。
信貸損失準備金代表管理層截至資產負債表日期對貸款的生命週期信貸損失的估計。信貸損失準備金是由管理層使用相關的可用信息進行估算的,這些信息來自內部和外部來源,涉及過去事件、當前狀況和合理且可支持的預測。
當存在相似風險特徵時,預期信貸損失在池基礎上進行測量,採用加權平均剩餘壽命法。加權平均剩餘壽命法對給定貸款池的損失率進行應用,這基於歷史數據。貸款損失由於貸款組合的性質和相對簡單性,採用加權平均剩餘壽命法進行計算。
11
公司已經識別並對以下每個投資組合細分計算信用損失準備金:
貸款組合 |
| 風險特徵 |
一至四家庭抵押貸款 | 這一類別包括以住宅房地產爲抵押的貸款。這些貸款的表現可能會受到當地住宅房地產市場狀況、利率環境和通貨膨脹等多種因素的負面影響。 | |
施工貸款 | 這一類別包括用於資助住宅和空地貸款的從零開始的施工和/或改善的貸款。施工貸款的表現通常依賴於對最終用戶的改善和/或土地開發的成功完成。計劃中的改善和開發的成功完成可能會受到施工完成後估計的物業價值變化、預期成本以及導致項目延誤的其他條件的負面影響。 | |
房屋淨值貸款/信用額度 | 該類別包含以住宅房地產業的第一和次級留置權作爲擔保的貸款。這些貸款的表現可能會受到多個因素的不利影響,包括當地住宅房地產市場情況、利率環境和通貨膨脹。 | |
商業貸款 | 該類別包括向各類從業者和其他專業人士發放的商業貸款。這些貸款通常最初由綜合UCC-1提交進行擔保。當貸款被購買時,銀行購買 | |
消費貸款 | 這一類別包括向個人提供的家庭、家庭和其他個人使用的貸款。這些貸款的表現可能會受到國家和地方經濟條件、通貨膨脹及其他影響借款人可用於償還債務的收入的因素的負面影響。 |
此外,信用損失準備金的計算包括針對可能導致預估信用損失與歷史經驗差異的定性風險因素的主觀調整。這些定性調整可能會增加或減少準備金水平,包括對貸款管理經驗和風險承受能力、貸款審查和審計結果、資產質量和投資組合趨勢、貸款組合增長、行業集中度、基礎擔保的趨勢、外部因素以及尚未反映的經濟條件的調整。公司估計合理且可支持的預期信用損失預測,並在貸款池的剩餘生命週期內,對於預測期之外的期間回歸到歷史損失信息。
不具有相似風險特徵的貸款將單獨評估。當借款人面臨財務困難,並且預計通過擔保的操作或銷售來提供還款時,預期信用損失基於報告日擔保的公允價值,適當時調整估計的銷售成本。
12
信用損失準備金 - 未融資承諾
金融工具包括諸如爲了滿足客戶融資需求而發放的貸款承諾等表外信用工具。公司在金融工具的表外貸款承諾中,如果另一方未能履約,其信用損失的風險由這些工具的合同金額表示。這類金融工具在獲得資金時進行記錄。
公司在表外信用風險上記錄信用損失準備金,除非信用擴展的承諾可以無條件取消,通過對合並運營報表中未融資承諾的準備金提取來進行。表外信用風險的信用損失準備金是按貸款細分在每個資產負債表日根據當前預期信用損失模型進行估算,使用與組合貸款相同的方法,考慮到融資發生的可能性以及任何第三方擔保。未融資承諾的準備金被納入合併資產負債表的其他負債中。
銀行持有人壽保險
銀行是某些銀行高管生命保險合同的受益人,這些合同按現金退保價值報告。截止到2024年9月30日和2023年12月31日,生命保險合同總計約爲$
房屋和設備
房屋和設備按成本扣除累計折舊進行覈算。折舊通常採用直線法計算,基於資產的估計使用壽命。建築物和改進的估計使用壽命區間爲
對物業的主要支出以及那些大幅延長使用壽命的支出被資本化。維護、修理和小型更換的支出如未對相關資產的使用壽命產生顯著改善或延長,則作爲費用在發生時計入。
當資產被報廢或以其他方式處置時,其成本和相關累計折舊將從相應帳戶中移除,任何收益或損失將反映在其他非利息收入或支出中。
房地產所有權
通過貸款止贖獲得的房地產業的初始記錄爲收購日期的公允價值,減去估計的銷售成本。收購時的任何減值均計入信貸損失準備金。收購後的後續評估準備金將根據需要建立,以報告這些資產的較低值(a)公允價值減去估計銷售成本或(b)成本。
公司能夠收回房地產業的賬面價值取決於未來對所擁有房地產業的銷售。實現這種收回的能力受市場條件和其他因素的影響,其中許多因素超出了公司的控制範圍。此類物業的經營收入,扣除相關費用以及處置的盈虧,將包含在合併的運營報表中。公司在某個時間點有$

所得稅
遞延所得稅資產和負債是根據責任(或資產負債表)方法確定的。根據這種方法,淨遞延所得稅資產或負債是基於公司資產和負債的財務報表賬面金額與稅基之間的暫時差異的稅收影響確定的。遞延所得稅資產和負債反映了按照預期實現或結算遞延所得稅資產和負債的期間適用的當前頒佈的所得稅率。隨着稅法或稅率的變化的頒佈,遞延所得稅資產和負債通過繳納所得稅費用進行調整。在管理層認爲遞延所得稅資產的某部分或全部不太可能實現時,遞延所得稅資產減少了估值準備。
根據所有可用證據,管理層認爲更有可能在檢驗期間保留該立場的情況下,會認可稅收處理的好處,並在一體化財務報表中承認這一利益,包括上訴或訴訟程序的解決,如果有的話。所採取的稅收立場的評估被視爲獨立考慮,而不與其他立場相抵銷或合併。符合更有可能認可門檻的稅收立場被計量爲在與適用徵稅機構結算時更有50%以上可能實現的稅收利益最大金額。
與上述所述金額相比超出的與所採取稅收立場相關的利益部分被反映爲未確認稅收利益的負債,在一體化資產負債表中列示,連同在檢驗時將支付給徵稅機構的任何相關利息和罰款。與未確認稅收利益相關的利息和罰款被分類爲一體化損益表中的額外所得稅。
美國普遍接受的會計原則提供了有關公司在稅務申報中可能存在不確定性立場的會計和披露指導。公司相信其對所採取的任何稅務立場都有適當的支持,管理層已經確定在合併財務報表中不存在任何對財務狀況有重大影響的不確定稅務立場。
公司在截至2024年6月30日的六個月內實現了
該銀行不再受2021年之前的美國聯邦審查的約束。
綜合收益(損失)
綜合收益(損失)包括淨利潤(損失)和其他綜合收益(損失),扣除適用所得稅。其他綜合收益(損失)包括可供出售證券的未實現收益和損失,以及除淨週期性養老金成本之外的養老金相關變動。累計其他綜合(損失)包括可供出售證券的累計未實現收益和損失,以及養老金計劃責任的資金狀況累計未實現盈利或虧損,扣除稅金。
每股收益
每股收益(損失)代表可供普通股股東支配的收入或損失,除以期間內普通股股份加權平均數。由ESOP持有的未分配普通股股份顯示爲股東權益減少,並從加權平均數中排除。

The Company had no dilutive or potentially dilutive securities during the period ended September 30, 2024.
Revenue Recognition
In the ordinary course of business, the Company recognizes income from various revenue generating activities. Revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606 is measured based on the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services as the related performance obligation is satisfied. Some obligations are satisfied at a point in time while others are satisfied over a period of time. A performance obligation is deemed to be satisfied when the control over goods or services is transferred to the customer.
The majority of the Company’s revenue is specifically excluded from the scope of ASC 606. Service charges on deposit accounts and ATM and check card fees are the most significant categories of revenue within the scope of ASC 606 and is included in non-interest income on the consolidated statements of operations.
Service charges on deposit accounts include charges related to depository accounts under standard service agreements. Fees are generally recognized at a point in time as services are delivered to or consumed by the customer or as penalties are assessed.
ATM and check card fees includes interchange fees from credit and debit cards processed through card association networks, annual fees, and other transaction and account management fees. Interchange rates are generally set by the credit card associations and based on purchase volumes and other factors. The Company records interchange fees as services are provided. Transaction and account management fees are recognized as services are provided, except for annual fees which are recognized over the applicable period. The costs of related loyalty rewards programs are netted against interchange revenue as a direct cost of the revenue generating activity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). This ASU applies to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or other rate references expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform and provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP if certain criteria are met. The updated guidance was originally effective upon issuance through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 which deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. Management does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting- Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This amendment is intended to improve disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and addresses requests from investors and other decision makers for additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses. The amendment applies to all public entities that are required to report segment information in accordance with Topic 280. All public entities will be required to report segment information in accordance with the new guidance starting in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented and segment expense categories should be based on the categories identified at adoption. The Company does not currently expect adoption of the amendment to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, which amended the Income Taxes topic in the Accounting Standards Codification 742 to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company uses the following criteria to assess risk ratings with respect to its loan portfolio, which are consistent with regulatory guidelines:
Pass - Loans that comply in all material respects with the loan policies that are adequately secured with conforming collateral and that are extended to borrowers with documented ability to safely cover their total debt service requirements.
Special Mention - Includes loans that do not warrant adverse classification but do possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses that deserve close attention.
Substandard - Includes loans that are inadequately protected by the collateral pledged or the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower. Such loans have one or more weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and expose the Company to loss if the weaknesses are not corrected.
The Company’s credit quality indicators are reviewed and updated annually.

Collateral-Dependent Loans
The Company designates individually evaluated loans on nonaccrual status as collateral-dependent loans, as well as other loans that management of the Company designates as having higher risk. Collateral-dependent loans are loans for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. These loans do not share common risk characteristics and are not included within the collectively evaluated loans for determining the allowance for credit losses. For collateral-dependent loans, the Company has adopted the practical expedient to measure the allowance for credit losses based on the fair value of collateral. The allowance for credit losses is calculated on an individual loan basis based on the shortfall between the fair value of the loan’s collateral, which is adjusted for liquidation costs/discounts, and amortized cost. If the fair value of the collateral exceeds the amortized cost, no allowance is required.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The decrease in the allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2024 as compared to December 31, 2023 was driven by various factors, including the evolving economic outlook, values in the local real estate market, low net charge-offs, and refining our peer group selection to better align with peers whose loan portfolios reflect the composition of our own loan portfolio and the current local economic conditions. Adjusting this component of our estimate has resulted in a reduced peer group loss rate and corresponding adjustments to our peer comparisons. This change in accounting estimate was recognized prospectively. In turn our CECL reserve percentage was decreased resulting in a $

Modifications Made to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
The allowance for credit losses incorporates an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses and is recorded on each asset upon asset origination or acquisition. The starting point for the estimate of the allowance for credit losses is historical loss information, which includes losses from modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The Company uses a probability of default/loss given default model to determine the allowance for credit losses. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made on the date of a modification.
Because the effect of most modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the allowance for credit losses because of the measurement methodologies used to estimate the allowance, a change to the allowance for credit losses is generally not recorded upon modification. Occasionally, the Company modifies loans by providing principal forgiveness on certain of its loans. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amortized cost basis of the asset is written off against the allowance for credit losses. The amount of the principal forgiveness is deemed to be uncollectible; therefore, that portion of the loan is written off, resulting in a reduction of the amortized cost basis and a corresponding adjustment to the allowance for credit losses.
In some cases, the Company will modify a certain loan by providing multiple types of concessions. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted.
25
Upon determination that a modified loan (or portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectable, the loan (or portion of the loan) is written off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the allowance for credit losses is adjusted by the same amount.

Unfunded Commitments
The Company did not record an adjustment for unfunded commitments for the adoption of ASC 326. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, provision for credit losses for unfunded commitments totaled approximately ($
Related Party Loans
In the normal course of business, loans are made to officers and directors of the Company, as well as to their affiliates. Such loans are made in the ordinary course of business with substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral) as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. They do not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

The Company generally requires an inspection of the property before disbursement of funds during the term of the construction loan and inspections are typically performed by one of the Company’s directors. There is no revenue or expense recorded by the Company related to those services as the customer pays these fees through their closing costs.
Note 5. | Regulatory Matters |
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by its primary federal regulator, the OCC. Failure to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the
26
Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under the regulatory capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines involving quantitative measures of the assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items, as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of common equity Tier I capital, Tier I capital and total capital to risk-weighted assets and Tier I capital to average assets. The final rules implementing Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks (Basel Ill rules) became fully effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Management believes, as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, that the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the most recent notification from the OCC categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total ratios as disclosed in the table below. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s prompt corrective action category.
The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are also presented in the table below (dollar amounts in thousands):

Note 6. | Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk |
In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of the involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Bank had made various commitments to extend credit totaling approximately $
27
approximately $
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being fully drawn upon, the total commitment amount disclosed above does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if considered necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.
Note 7. | Fair Value Measurements |
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, accounting guidance has established a hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:
Level 1 Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in instruments traded in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2 Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis
The following describes the hierarchy designation, valuation methodology, and key inputs to measure fair value on a recurring basis for designated financial instruments:
Investment Securities Available-for-Sale
Where available, fair value estimates for available-for-sale securities are based on quoted market prices in an active market (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics, quoted prices of identical securities in less active markets, discounted cash flow techniques or matrix pricing models (Level 2). In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 are not available, securities are classified as Level 3 of the hierarchy. The carrying amount of accrued interest on securities approximates its fair value.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis
The following describes the hierarchy designation, valuation methodologies, and key inputs for those assets that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis:
Collateral Dependent Loans
For collateral dependent loans, fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans and is classified at a Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Collateral dependent loans consist of one-to-four family mortgages secured by residential properties. The value of residential property collateral is determined based on appraisal by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Company. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available.
Foreclosed Assets and Real Estate Owned
Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired and classified at a Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. These assets are subsequently accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated cost to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Bank to estimate fair value of financial instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Fair value approximates carrying value.
Investment Securities Available-for-Sale - Fair value is obtained from an independent pricing service based on quoted market prices or quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics, quoted prices of identical securities in less active markets, discounted cash flow techniques, or matrix pricing models.
30
Restricted Stock - Consists of stock held as required by the respective institutions for membership and are carried at cost. While a fixed stock amount is required, the Federal Home Loan Bank stock requirement increases or decreases with the level of borrowing activity.
Loans Receivable, Net – Fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit rating and for the same remaining maturity. The fair value of loans is measured using an exit price notion.
Bank Owned Life Insurance - Fair value approximates carrying value.
Deposits - For NOW, savings and certain money market fund accounts, fair value is equal to the amount payable on demand or carrying value. For time deposits, fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow method.
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances- Fair value approximates carrying value.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Fair value estimates may not be realizable in an immediate settlement of the instrument. In some instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments, in which case fair values may be based on estimates using the present value or other valuation techniques, or based on judgements regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of financial instruments, or other factors. Those techniques are significantly affected by assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimate of future cash flows. Subsequent changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Because of these and a wide variety of other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company assumes no obligation and disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Critical Accounting Estimates
The discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which are prepared in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of income and expenses. We consider the accounting policy discussed below to be our critical accounting policy. The estimates and assumptions that we use are based on historical experience and various other factors and are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, resulting in a change that could have a material impact on the carrying value of our assets and liabilities and our results of operations.
The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (JOBS Act) contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. As an “emerging growth company” we may delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Accordingly, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

We consider the accounting policy for the allowance for credit losses to be our critical accounting policy. Effective January 1, 2023, we adopted the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) methodology. Under the CECL methodology, the allowance for credit losses represents management’s estimate of lifetime credit losses in loans as of the balance sheet date using relevant available information, from both internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. For reporting periods before January 1, 2023 and the adoption of CECL, we used the incurred loss impairment method to estimate the allowance for loan losses on loans receivable. Under the incurred loss impairment methodology, the allowance for loan losses was based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, and other factors, and consisted of allocated and unallocated components.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to our allowance for credit losses that existed as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We concluded that our procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2023 and un-remediated as of September 30, 2024. Specifically, we identified, the following material weaknesses in our internal control over our financial reporting:
● | management did not maintain sufficient evidence of independent review or supporting documentation related to key methodologies, assumptions, and calculations, including support for the qualitative factors, utilized in the allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023; and |
● | management did not maintain sufficient evidence of independent review or supporting documentation, including support for the qualitative factors, related to the January 1, 2023 adoption of Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2016-13 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. |
These material weaknesses could result in misstatements of our allowance for credit losses and related disclosures that would result in a material misstatement of our financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
We intend to remediate these material weaknesses. We currently are assessing and improving our processes and control procedures to ensure they will operate at an acceptable level of assurance. The remedial measures we will take to address these material weaknesses include calculating an allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments; revising the peer group of institutions to include institutions whose loan portfolios better reflect the composition of our loan portfolio; obtaining updated independent appraisals for loans being evaluated for impairment; enhancing qualitative factors support to include data points tied to a specified timeframe, such as, for example, the unemployment rate, to consistently allocate basis point reserves for each reporting period; using qualitative factors to adjust the allowance for credit losses for economic conditions that impact us and documenting the adjustments in a narrative accompanying the allowance calculation; and assigning an independent individual to review the allowance calculation to assure its accuracy and completeness.
We believe these actions and any other that we may determine need to be implemented, when complete, will remediate the control weaknesses. However, the weaknesses will not be considered fully remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time for management to test the results for operating effectiveness. Once implemented, we intend to continue periodic testing and reporting of the internal controls to ensure continuity of compliance.
The decrease in the allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2024 as compared to December 31, 2023 was driven by various factors, including the evolving economic outlook, values in the local real estate market, low net charge-offs, and refining our peer group selection to better align with peers whose loan portfolios reflect the composition of our own loan portfolio and the current local economic conditions. Adjusting this component of our estimate has
35
resulted in a reduced peer group loss rate and corresponding adjustments to our peer comparisons. In turn our CECL reserve percentage was decreased resulting in a $1.1 million reversal in our allowance for credit loss.
Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023
Total Assets. Total assets were $523.8 million at September 30, 2024, an increase of $43.0 million, or 9.0%, compared to $480.8 million at December 31, 2023. This increase is primarily due to $14.8 million increase in cash and cash equivalents, $25.9 million increase in investment securities available-for-sale, and $2.7 million increase in loans receivable, net.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $14.8 million, or 76.6%, to $34.1 million at September 30, 2024 from $19.3 million at December 31, 2023. This increase resulted primarily from the cash received for subscriptions to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in its initial public offering. The net proceeds of the public offering are reflected in Stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2024.
Investment Securities Available-for-Sale. Investment securities available-for-sale increased $25.9 million, or 38.1%, to $93.8 million at September 30, 2024 from $67.9 million at December 31, 2023. Securities purchased totaled $48.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, securities sold totaled $18.7 million, and calls, maturities, and repayments totaled $5.3 million.
Loans Receivable, Net. Loans receivable, net, increased by $2.7 million, or 0.7%, to $367.7 million at September 30, 2024 from $365.0 million at December 31, 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, loan originations were $26.9 million and loan repayments totaled $24.2 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, commercial and industrial loans increased by $3.7 million, primarily from the purchase of the guaranteed portion of government loans, and Bankers Healthcare loans. 1-4 single family mortgages decreased by $2.8 million, home equity loans decreased by $629,000, construction loans increased by $1.5 million, and we reversed $1.1 million from our allowance for credit losses.
Deposits. Deposits decreased by $5.9 million, or 1.5%, to $384.1 million at September 30, 2024, from $390.0 million at December 31, 2023. Certificates of deposit increased $3.6 million, or 1.59%, to $231.8 million at September 30, 2024, from $228.1 million at December 31, 2023. The majority of the increase in certificates of deposit was driven by new customer activity and migration from lower yielding money markets accounts. NOW accounts increased $2.0 million, or 3.9%, to $52.8 million at September 30, 2024, from $50.8 million at December 31, 2023. MMDA accounts decreased $4.4 million, or 16.8%, to $22.0 million at September 30, 2024, from $26.4 million at December 31, 2023. Savings Accounts decrease $7.1 million, or 8.37%, to $77.5 million at September 30, 2024, from $84.6 million at December 31, 2023.
Total Stockholders’ Equity. Total stockholders’ equity increased by $50.1 million, or 64.4%, to $127.9 million at September 30, 2024, from $77.8 million at December 31, 2023. The increase resulted from the sale of stock in the initial public offering that totaled $53.2 million, offset by the unearned ESOP of $4.3 million, the accumulated other comprehensive loss (as a result of market value adjustment of investment securities available-for-sale due to the rise in market interest rates during the period) declining $2.5 million and retained earnings decreasing $1.2 million due to the net loss for the period ended September 30, 2024.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
General. Net income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was ($788,000), a decrease of $827,000, or 2,120.5%, compared to $39,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The net loss was primarily from an increase in non-interest expense of $1.6 million resulting from a $1.3 million charitable contribution to establish the Fifth District Community Foundation, a $508,000 increase in interest expense, partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in interest income, and a $220,000 decrease in provision for income taxes.
38
Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income increased by $1.0 million, or 25.0%, to $5.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase is attributed to a $252,000, or 7.0%, increase in interest on loans, a $433,000, or 346.4%, increase in interest on other interest-earning assets and $353,000, or 84.3%, increase in interest on investment securities available-for-sale.
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, average loans receivable, net, increased by $6.9 million, or 1.9%, from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The average yield on loans increased to 4.16% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from 3.96% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, due to the rising market rate environment.
The average balance of investment securities available-for-sale increased $13.4 million, or 19.4%, to $82.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from $69.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The average yield on available-for-sale investment securities increased to 3.71% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from 2.40% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in the average yield on available-for-sale investment securities was primarily due to the rising market interest rate environment.
Interest income on cash and cash equivalents, comprised primarily of overnight deposits, increased by $433,000, or 376.5%, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, due to an increase in the average yield to 5.37% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from 4.80% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in interest income was mainly due to the increase in the balance of cash and cash equivalents arising from the cash received for the purchase of stock in the IPO. The increase in average yield was due to the rise in market interest rates.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased $508,000 or 28.2%, to $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the average cost of deposits to 2.27% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from 1.81% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, reflecting the rising market interest rate environment. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased by $18.7 million, or 4.9%, to $403.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from $384.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $530,000, or 22.5%, to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase reflects the increase in the interest rate spread to 1.91% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from 1.89% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, while average net interest-earning assets increased $36.0 million period-to-period. The net interest margin increased to 2.32% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from 2.11% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased from 3.73% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, to 4.18% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased from 1.84% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, to 2.27% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase in the average rate paid on certificates of deposit from 3.22% in 2023 to 3.81% in 2024. The increase in the average rate paid on certificates of deposit contributed to migration from lower yielding savings accounts and money market accounts, to higher yielding certificates of deposit. The average balance of certificates of deposit increased from $208.6 million as of September 30, 2023, to $235.2 million as September 30, 2024, while over the same period the average balance of savings accounts decreased from $93.1 million to $79.8 million, and the average balance of money market accounts decreased from $31.7 million to $22.2 million.
Provision (Recovery) for Credit Losses. The recovery of credit losses on loans decreased $100,000 to $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $100,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The allowance for credit losses on loans represented 0.46% of total loans at September 30, 2024, and 0.76% of total loans at September 30, 2023. The recovery of credit losses is based on our evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses throughout the reporting period.
39
The recovery of credit losses on unfunded commitments increased $110,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to no recovery for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The recovery of credit losses on unfunded commitments is based on an evaluation of the historical usage rate.
Total non-performing loans were $647,000 at September 30, 2024, compared to $0 at September 30, 2023. We did not have any loans over 90 days delinquent at September 30, 2023 compared to $647,000 at September 30, 2024. Classified loans totaled $647,000 at September 30, 2024, compared to $106,000 at September 30, 2023. As a percentage of nonperforming loans, the allowance for credit losses on loans was 262.6% at September 30, 2024, and there were no non-performing loans at September 30, 2023.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income totaled $252,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $3,000, or 1.2%, from $249,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $1.6 million, or 59.9%, to $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $243,000, or 15.9%, an increase in occupancy and equipment expense of $28,000, or 6.5%, an increase in professional and legal fees of $16,000, or 41.0%, an increase in data processing expense of $9,000, or 3.3%, an increase in audit and examination fees of $68,000, or 194.3%, and an increase in charitable contributions of $1.3 million, or 9,615.4% from establishing the Fifth District Community Foundation, partially offset by a $5,000, or 8.8%, decrease in FDIC insurance expense, an $18,000, or 19.8% decrease in directors fees, and a $25,000, or 45.5% decrease in advertising.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. The provision (benefit) for income taxes decreased by $220,000, or 2,200.0%, to ($210,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $10,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was due to a $1.0 million, or 2,136.7%, decrease in pretax income. The effective tax rate was 21% for both periods.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
General. Net income (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was ($1.2) million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 299.8%, compared to $619,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The net loss was primarily from an increase in non-interest expense of $1.9 million resulting from a $1.3 million charitable contribution to establish the Fifth District Community Foundation, an increase in interest expense of $2.6 million, a decrease in non-interest income of $956,000, partially offset by an increase in interest income of $2.0 million, and a $493,000 decrease in provision for income taxes.
Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income increased by $2.0 million, or 16.1%, to $14.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $12.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in interest income is attributed to a $931,000, or 8.9%, increase in interest on loans, a $624,000, or 135.4%, increase in interest on other interest-earning assets and $402,000, or 31.6%, increase in interest on investment securities available-for-sale.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, average loans receivable, net, increased by $9.6 million, or 2.7%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The average yield on loans increased to 4.13% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from 3.89% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to the rising market interest rate environment.
The average balance of investment securities available-for-sale decreased $1.8 million, or 2.4%, to $71.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from $73.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The average yield on available-for-sale investment securities increased to 3.13% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from 2.32% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in the average yield on
40
available-for-sale investment securities was primarily due to the rising market interest rate environment as well as selling low yielding bonds to reinvest in higher yielding bonds.
Interest income on cash and cash equivalents, comprised primarily of certificate of deposit in other financial institutions and overnight deposits, increased by $620,000, or 140.8%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, due to an increase in the average yield to 5.20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from 4.55% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in average yield was due to the rise in market interest rates.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased $2.6 million, or 58.6%, to $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the average cost of deposits to 2.36% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from 1.48% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, reflecting the rising market interest rate environment. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased by $1.6 million, or 0.4%, to $390.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from $388.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $602,000, or 7.7%, to $7.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease reflects the decrease in the interest rate spread to 1.67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from 2.16% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, while average net interest-earning assets increased $21.6 million period-to-period. The net interest margin decreased to 2.06% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from 2.34% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Both the interest rate spread and net interest margin decreased due to the rising interest rate environment. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased from 3.65% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to 4.04% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased from 1.49% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to 2.37% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase in the average rate paid on certificates of deposit from 2.71% in 2023 to 3.81% in 2024. The increase in the average rate paid on certificates of deposit contributed to migration from lower yielding savings accounts, NOW accounts and money market accounts, to higher yielding certificates of deposit. The average balance of certificates of deposit increased from $201.3 million as of September 30, 2023, to $236.3 million as of September 30, 2024, while over the same period the average balance of savings accounts decreased from $97.5 million to $81.9 million, the average balance of NOW accounts decreased from $53.9 million to $48.0 million and the average balance of money market accounts decreased from $35.6 million to $23.9 million.
Provision (Recovery) for Credit Losses. The recovery of credit losses on loans increased $1.0 million to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The recovery was primarily due to changes in the peer group for the CECL calculation. The allowance for credit losses on loans represented 0.46% of total loans at September 30, 2024, and 0.86% of total loans at September 30, 2023. The recovery of credit losses is based on our evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses throughout the reporting period.
The recovery of credit losses on unfunded commitments increased $110,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to no recovery for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The recovery of credit losses on unfunded commitments is based on an evaluation of the historical usage rate.
Total non-performing loans were $647,000 at September 30, 2024, compared to $0 at September 30, 2023. We did not have any loans over 90 days delinquent at September 30, 2023 compared to $647,000 at September 30, 2024. Classified loans totaled $647,000 at September 30, 2024, compared to $106,000 at September 30, 2023. As a percentage of nonperforming loans, the allowance for credit losses on loans was 262.6% at September 30, 2024, and there were no non-performing loans at September 30, 2023.
Noninterest Income (Loss). Noninterest income (loss) totaled ($231,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $956,000, or 131.9%, from $725,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the $1.1 million realized loss on the sale of investment securities available-for-sale and a $10,000, or 3.3%, decrease in ATM and check card fees, offset by a $34,000, or 14.4%, increase in the cash surrender value of the
41
bank owned life insurance, a $13,000, or 8.6%, increase in deposit service charges and fees, and a $141,000 gain on sale of property.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $1.9 million, or 24.2%, to $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $7.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $382,000, or 8.4%, an increase in occupancy and equipment expense of $109,000, or 8.8%, an increase in FDIC insurance of $36,000, or 30.8%, an increase in data processing expense of $93,000, or 11.7%, an increase in audit and examination fees of $118,000, or 105.4%, an increase in other fees of $45,000 or 11.6%, and an increase in charitable contributions of $1.3 million, or 3,289.5% from establishing the Fifth District Community Foundation, offset by a $90,000, or 45.7%, decrease in advertising expense, and a $56,000, or 20.4% decrease in directors fees.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. The provision (benefit) for income taxes decreased by $493,000, or 300.6%, to ($329,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $164,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was due to a $2.3 million, or 300.0%, decrease in pretax income. The effective tax rate was 21% for both periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity describes our ability to meet the financial obligations that arise in the ordinary course of business. Liquidity is primarily needed to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers and to fund current and planned expenditures. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, and proceeds from maturities of securities. We also have the ability to borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas and from two correspondent banks and, until March 11, 2024, had the ability to obtain advances under the Federal Reserve Board’s Bank Term Funding Program. Under the terms of the Bank Term Funding Program, advances cannot be obtained after March 11, 2024. At September 30, 2024, we had no outstanding advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas. At September 30, 2024, we had no outstanding balances under the correspondent bank credit facilities and no outstanding balance under the Bank Term Funding Program.
Time deposits that meet or exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit of $250,000 at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $45.2 million and $42.2 million, respectively.
Based on collateral pledged, consisting of all shares of FHLB stock owned and the blanket pledge of approximately $237.0 million of its qualifying mortgage loans as of September 30, 2024, the Company was eligible to borrow up to an additional $180.5 million as of September 30, 2024.
The Company has an unsecured federal funds line of credit with FNBB that expires on September 30, 2025. The Company is eligible to borrow up to $27.2 million. There was no amount outstanding on this line of credit as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The Company is eligible to borrow from TIB’s Federal Funds Purchase Line Program, which provides overnight liquidity through pledge of certain qualifying securities. The Bank is eligible to borrow up to $15.0 million and repayment is due the next day. There was no amount outstanding on this line of credit as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. Our most liquid assets are cash and short-term investments. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending, and investing activities during any given period.
42
Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing activities, and cash flows from financing activities. See the accompanying Statements of Cash Flows for further information.
Fifth District Bancorp, Inc. is a separate legal entity from Fifth District Savings Bank and must provide for its own liquidity to pay its operating expenses and other financial obligations. Its primary source of income is dividends received from the Bank. The amount of dividends that the Bank may declare and pay to the Company is governed by applicable bank regulations. At September 30, 2024, the Company (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $21.4 million.
We believe we maintain a strong liquidity position, and are committed to maintaining it. We monitor our liquidity position on a daily basis. We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to meet our current funding commitments. Based on our deposit retention experience and current pricing strategy, we anticipate that a significant portion of maturing time deposits will be retained.
At September 30, 2024, the Bank was categorized as well-capitalized under applicable bank regulatory capital guidelines. Management is not aware of any conditions or events since the most recent notification that would change its category.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At September 30, 2024, we had $23.6 million of outstanding commitments to originate loans, which primarily consists of $8.4 million of remaining funds to be disbursed on construction loans in process and $13.4 million of unused balances of home equity lines of credit. At September 30, 2024, certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature on or before September 30, 2025 totaled $215.2 million. Management expects that a substantial portion of the maturing certificates of deposit will be renewed. However, if a substantial portion of these deposits is not retained, we may raise interest rates on deposits to attract new accounts or utilize Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas advances, which may result in higher levels of interest expense.
Management of Market Risk
General. Our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk because, as a financial institution, the majority of our assets and liabilities are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Therefore, a principal part of our operations is to manage interest rate risk and limit the exposure of our financial condition and results of operations to changes in market interest rates. All directors participate in discussions during the regular board meetings evaluating the interest rate risk inherent in our assets and liabilities, and the level of risk that is appropriate. These discussions take into consideration our business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives consistent with the policy and guidelines approved by them. The board of directors establishes policies and guidelines for managing interest rate risk.
Our asset/liability management strategy attempts to manage the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income, our primary source of earnings. Among the techniques we are using to manage interest rate risk are:
● | maintaining capital levels that substantially exceed the thresholds for well-capitalized status under federal regulations; |
● | maintaining a high liquidity level; |
● | growing our core deposit accounts; and |
● | managing our investment securities portfolio to reduce the average maturity and effective life of the portfolio. |
By following these strategies, we believe that we are better positioned to react to increases and decreases in market interest rates.
43
We have not engaged in hedging activities, such as investing in futures or options. We do not anticipate entering into hedging transactions in the future.
Economic Value of Equity. We compute amounts by which the net present value of our assets and liabilities (economic value of equity or “EVE”) would change in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. This model uses a discounted cash flow analysis and an option-based pricing approach to measure the interest rate sensitivity of net portfolio value. The model estimates the economic value of each type of asset, liability and off-balance sheet contract under the assumptions that the United States Treasury yield curve increases instantaneously by 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis point increments or decreases instantaneously by 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis point increments, with changes in interest rates representing immediate and permanent, parallel shifts in the yield curve.
The following table sets forth, as of September 30, 2024, the calculation of the estimated changes in our EVE that would result from the designated immediate changes in the United States Treasury yield curve. All estimated changes presented in the table are within the policy limits established by the board of directors.

The table above indicates that as of September 30, 2024, we would have experienced a 16.31% decrease in net interest income in the event of an instantaneous parallel 200 basis point increase in market interest rates and a 2.52% increase in net interest income in the event of an instantaneous 200 basis point decrease in market interest rates.
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodologies used in the above interest rate risk measurement. Modeling changes in EVE and NII require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. For instance, the EVE and NII tables presented above assume that the composition of our interest-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. However, the shape of the yield curve changes constantly and the value and pricing of our assets and liabilities, including our deposits, may not closely correlate with changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, although the EVE and NII tables may provide an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time and in the context of a particular yield curve, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on EVE and NII and will differ from actual results.
EVE and net interest NII calculations also may not reflect the fair values of financial instruments. For example, decreases in market interest rates can increase the fair values of our loans, deposits and borrowings.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The information in Item 2 under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Management of Market Risk” is incorporated in this Item 3 by reference.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September 30, 2024. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses disclosed above in Item 2 under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.”
45
During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, except as follows to address the material weaknesses disclosed above in Item 2 under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Internal Control Over Financial Reporting”: We currently are assessing and improving our processes and control procedures to ensure they will operate at an acceptable level of assurance. The remedial measures we will take to address these material weaknesses include calculating an allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments; revising the peer group of institutions to include institutions whose loan portfolios better reflect the composition of our loan portfolio; obtaining updated independent appraisals for loans being evaluated for impairment; enhancing qualitative factors support to include data points tied to a specified timeframe, such as, for example, the unemployment rate, to consistently allocate basis point reserves for each reporting period; using qualitative factors to adjust the allowance for credit losses for economic conditions that impact us and documenting the adjustments in a narrative accompanying the allowance calculation; and assigning an independent individual to review the allowance calculation to assure its accuracy and completeness.
