Comments from the Chief Executive Officer and President / Chief Financial Officer
“Despite the ongoing economic uncertainty exacerbated by the extended government shutdown, we continued to execute on our core banking strategies. This is reflected in a 50-basis point year-over-year improvement in our net interest margin, stable operating expenses and strong credit quality. Subsequent to quarter end, we paid down $4 million of our subordinated debt, further demonstrating our strong liquidity and capital positions,” remarked Laurie Stewart, Chief Executive Officer.
"Although the valuation of our mortgage servicing portfolio declined during the quarter, our core earnings returned to levels last seen prior to the higher rate cycle. This improvement reflects our ongoing focus on disciplined expense management and prudent loan portfolio growth," explained Wes Ochs, President and Chief Financial Officer.
Mr. Ochs continued, "Asset quality remains solid and well-managed, supported by a robust commercial pipeline as we head into year-end. While our technology investments have increased costs compared to the prior year, they have already generated operational efficiencies and positioned us to scale effectively for future growth."

Q3 2025 vs. Q2 2025
Interest income decreased $263 thousand, or 1.8%, to $14.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $14.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a lower average balance of interest-earning cash, and a 25 basis point decline in the average yield on loans, offset by a higher average balance of loans.
Interest income on loans decreased $183 thousand, or 1.3%, to $13.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $13.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The average balance of total loans was $910.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $895.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The increase in the average balance of total loans was primarily due to growth in commercial and multifamily loans, construction and land loans, home equity loans, and commercial business loans, partially offset by declines in one-to-four family loans. The average balances for manufactured home, floating home, and other consumer loans remained relatively unchanged from the second quarter of 2025. The average yield on total loans was 5.89% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, down from 6.14% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. This decrease in yield was primarily due to recognition of interest income from the payoff of loans previously on nonaccrual during the second quarter of 2025, which temporarily elevated yields in that period. Because those loans were no longer outstanding in the third quarter, the related income did not recur, resulting in a lower average yield. This impact was partially offset by new loan originations at higher rates and upward repricing of variable-rate loans during the third quarter of 2025.
Interest income on investments was $124 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $123 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Interest income on interest-bearing cash decreased $81 thousand to $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $1.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. This decrease was a result of a lower average balance and yield of interest-earning cash during the quarter.
Interest expense increased $52 thousand or 0.9%, to $5.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The increase in interest expense during the current quarter from the prior quarter was primarily the result of higher average balances and rates paid on savings and money market accounts and higher average balances of certificate accounts, partially offset by lower rates paid on certificate accounts, as well as lower balances on demand and NOW accounts. The average cost of deposits was 2.32% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, down from 2.34% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, as higher costing deposits repriced lower due to market interest rate cuts beginning in September 2024. Interest expense on FHLB advances remained relatively unchanged during the current quarter compared to the prior quarter.
A provision for credit losses of $55 thousand was recorded for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, consisting of a provision for credit losses on loans of $65 thousand and a release of provision for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments of $10 thousand. This compared to a provision for credit losses of $170 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, consisting of a provision for credit losses on loans of $164 thousand and a provision for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments of $6 thousand. The decrease in the provision for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2025 resulted primarily from a smaller increase in the size of the portfolio in the third quarter compared to the second quarter. Although loan growth continued, the smaller overall increase in portfolio size reduced the need for additional reserves. Qualitative adjustments remained largely consistent with the prior quarter, except for new adjustments reflecting a sustained decline in commercial real estate collateral primarily due to loan origination vintage. These adjustments were partially offset by a reduced proportion of consumer loan segments, including floating home loans, which carry higher expected credit loss rates compared to the commercial loan segments that experienced growth during the current quarter. Expected credit loss estimates are based on a range of factors, including market conditions, borrower-specific information, projected delinquencies, and anticipated effects of economic trends on borrowers' ability to repay.
Q3 2025 vs. Q3 2024
Interest income on loans increased $636 thousand, or 4.9%, to $13.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $12.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The average balance of total loans was $910.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, up from $898.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The average yield on total loans was 5.89% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, up from 5.70% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The increase in the average loan yield was primarily due to the origination of new loans at higher interest rates, and upward repricing on variable-rate loans.
Interest income on investments was $124 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $132 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Interest income on interest-bearing cash decreased $814 thousand to $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $1.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was a result of both a lower average yield, resulting from reductions in the rates paid on interest-earning cash, and a lower average balance of interest-bearing cash during the period.
Interest expense decreased $1.3 million, or 18.0%, to $5.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $7.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily the result of a $15.9 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing demand and NOW accounts, a $12.5 million decrease in the average balance of certificate accounts, and a $15.0 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances, as well as lower average rates paid on all categories of interest-bearing deposits, reflecting lower market interest rates. These average-balance decreases were partially offset by a $10.3 million increase in the average balance of savings and money market accounts. The average cost of deposits was 2.32% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, down from 2.74% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The average cost of FHLB advances was 4.27% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, down from 4.32% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.
A provision for credit losses of $55 thousand was recorded for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, consisting of a provision for credit losses on loans of $65 thousand and a release of provision for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments of $10 thousand. This compared to a provision for credit losses of $8 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, consisting of a provision for credit losses on loans of $106 thousand and a release of provision for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments of $98 thousand. The larger provision in the current quarter, compared to the same quarter last year, primarily reflects the significant release of unfunded commitment reserves in the third quarter of 2024. That release was largely driven by both a reduction in unfunded balances as projects were completed and improvements in qualitative factors within the construction loan segment due to improved economic conditions. The provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2024 was also higher relative to the current quarter due to greater loan portfolio growth during the earlier quarter. Subsequent changes in portfolio composition, size, and qualitative factors have reduced the differences in provisions between the comparable periods.

Q3 2025 vs. Q2 2025
The decrease in noninterest income during the current quarter compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was primarily related to:
- a $292 thousand decline in the fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights due to an overall smaller servicing portfolio, as well as a lower market valuation due to changes associated with a decline in interest rates, partially offset by;
- a $50 thousand increase in net gain on sale of loans, primarily related to an increase in the volume of loans sold.
Loans sold during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, totaled $5.3 million, compared to $3.6 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2025. This was as a result of lower market interest rates increasing mortgage origination activity in the current quarter.
Q3 2025 vs. Q3 2024
The decrease in noninterest income during the current quarter compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to:
- a $473 thousand decline in the fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights, for the same reasons noted above, as well as a smaller servicing portfolio; and
- an $18 thousand decrease in mortgage servicing income as a result of a smaller servicing portfolio.
These decreases were partially offset by:
- a $44 thousand increase in service charges and fee income primarily due higher interchange income in the current quarter;
- a $39 thousand increase in earnings from BOLI, primarily due to the strategic decision to surrender and exchange existing policies into higher yielding policies in the first quarter of 2025, with the benefit of improved yields continuing into the third quarter; and
- a $54 thousand increase in net gain on sale of loans due to an increase in the volume of loans sold.

Q3 2025 vs. Q2 2025
Noninterest expense during the current quarter compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was largely unchanged.
Q3 2025 vs. Q3 2024
Noninterest expense during the current quarter compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was largely unchanged. While overall noninterest expense remained flat, there were fluctuations within certain expense categories, as noted below:
- a $210 thousand decrease in salaries and benefits, related to higher deferred salaries as a result of higher loan originations in the current quarter than in the same quarter one year ago; and
- a $57 thousand decrease in operations expense, primarily due to lower expenses across various accounts resulting from ongoing cost -saving initiatives and process improvements, as well as timing effects related to marketing campaigns and charitable contributions.
These decreases were partially offset by:
- a $207 thousand increase in data processing expense, reflecting the amortization of projects implemented at the end of the third quarter of 2024, as well as the deployment of new software technology in 2025 that continues to streamline operations and processes;
- a $32 thousand increase in regulatory assessments, due to higher accruals in the current year based on increased exam costs; and
- a $17 thousand increase in occupancy expense, due to higher building lease charges in 2025 resulting from lease renewals and maintenance charges.
Balance Sheet Review, Capital Management and Credit Quality
Assets totaled $1.06 billion at both September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, down from $1.10 billion at September 30, 2024. The decrease in total assets from September 30, 2024 was primarily a result of lower balances of cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by higher balances of loans held-for-portfolio.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1.4 million, or 1.4%, to $101.2 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $102.5 million at June 30, 2025, and decreased $47.8 million, or 32.1%, from $148.9 million at September 30, 2024. The decrease from September 30, 2024 was primarily due to lower deposit balances and an increase in loans held-for-portfolio.
Investment securities decreased $98 thousand, or 1.0%, to $9.5 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $9.6 million at June 30, 2025, and decreased $635 thousand, or 6.2%, from $10.2 million at September 30, 2024, as pay-offs and paydowns of investments exceeded new purchases. Held-to-maturity securities totaled $1.9 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $2.1 million at both June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024. Available-for-sale securities totaled $7.6 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $7.5 million at June 30, 2025 and $8.0 million at September 30, 2024. The decreases in our available-for-sale portfolio from September 30, 2024 and in our held-to-maturity portfolio from June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 related entirely to principal paydowns. The increase in our available-for-sale portfolio from June 30, 2025 to September 30, 2025 was due to an increase in the market value of our portfolio, resulting in lower unrealized losses.
Loans held-for-portfolio were $909.7 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $904.3 million at June 30, 2025 and $901.7 million at September 30, 2024. The increase from June 30, 2025, was primarily due to new loan originations in commercial and multifamily loans, construction and land loans, and to a lesser extent, home equity loans. The increase from September 30, 2024, reflected growth in home equity, commercial and multifamily, manufactured home, and floating home loans. These increases were partially offset by a decline in one-to-four family loans, driven by fewer new home loans and normal payment amortization, as well as a decrease in construction and land loans due to the completion of projects that were converted to permanent financing.
Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”), which are comprised of nonaccrual loans (including nonperforming modified loans), other real estate owned (“OREO”) and other repossessed assets, decreased $605 thousand, or 16.5%, to $3.1 million at September 30, 2025, from $3.7 million at June 30, 2025, and decreased $5.5 million, or 64.4%, from $8.6 million at September 30, 2024. The decrease in NPAs from June 30, 2025 was primarily due to the payoff of one mortgage loan of $804 thousand, the return of $226 thousand of loans to accrual status, and regular loan payments, partially offset by the addition of four loans totaling $413 thousand to nonaccrual status and $44 thousand of other real estate owned properties. The decrease in NPAs from one year ago was primarily due to payoffs totaling $8.9 million, the return of $411 thousand of loans to accrual status, $266 thousand of loans charged-off, and regular loan payments. These decreases were partially offset by the placement of an additional $4.1 million of loans on nonaccrual status and $229 thousand of new other real estate owned properties.
NPAs to total assets were 0.29%, 0.35% and 0.78% at September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. The allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans outstanding was 0.94% at September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, compared to 0.95% at September 30, 2024. Net loan charge-offs were $37 thousand for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $21 thousand for the second quarter of 2025 and $14 thousand for the third quarter of 2024.

Total deposits decreased $516 thousand, or 0.1%, to $898.9 million at September 30, 2025, from $899.5 million at June 30, 2025 and decreased $31.3 million, or 3.4%, from $930.2 million at September 30, 2024. The decrease in total deposits from both prior dates was primarily due to normal daily fluctuations in customer account balances, reflecting routine activity rather than significant changes in overall deposit levels. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $7.2 million, or 5.8%, to $131.4 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $124.2 million at June 30, 2025 and increased $1.7 million, or 1.3%, from $129.7 million at September 30, 2024. Noninterest-bearing deposits represented 14.6%, 13.7% and 14.0% of total deposits at September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively.
FHLB advances totaled $25.0 million at September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, compared to $40.0 million at September 30, 2024. FHLB advances are primarily used to support organic loan growth and to maintain liquidity ratios in line with our asset/liability objectives. FHLB advances outstanding at September 30, 2025 had maturities ranging from early 2026 through early 2028. Subordinated notes, net totaled $11.8 million at both September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, and $11.7 million at September 30, 2024.
Stockholders’ equity totaled $107.5 million at September 30, 2025, an increase of $1.4 million, or 1.4%, from $106.0 million at June 30, 2025, and an increase of $5.2 million, or 5.1%, from $102.2 million at September 30, 2024. The increase in stockholders’ equity from June 30, 2025 was primarily the result of $1.7 million of net income earned during the current quarter, a $164 thousand decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, and $75 thousand in share-based compensation, partially offset by the payment of $488 thousand in cash dividends to the Company's stockholders.
