Operating Results
Net interest income decreased $576 thousand, or 6.6%, to $8.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $8.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and decreased $1.4 million, or 14.9%, from $9.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in the current quarter compared to the prior quarter was primarily the result of increases in the rates paid on and balances of money market and certificate accounts, while the yield earned on interest-earning assets remained relatively flat. The decrease compared to the third quarter of 2022 was primarily the result of a higher average balance of and rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a higher average balance of and yield earned on average interest-earning assets.
Interest income increased $274 thousand, or 2.2%, to $12.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $12.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and increased $1.9 million, or 17.7%, from $10.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The increase from the prior quarter was primarily due to higher average balances on investments and interest-bearing cash and a 49 basis point increase in the average yield on investments and interest-bearing cash following continued increases in the targeted federal funds rate, partially offset by lower average balances of loans and a six basis point decline in the average yield on loans. The increase in interest income from the same quarter last year was due primarily to higher average balances of loans, investments and interest-bearing cash, a 38 basis point increase in the average loan yield and a 285 basis point increase in the average yield on investments and interest-bearing cash.
Interest income on loans decreased $46 thousand, or 0.4%, to $11.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $11.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and increased $1.2 million, or 11.4%, from $10.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of total loans was $862.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $866.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and $833.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The average yield on total loans was 5.29% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to 5.35% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and 4.92% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The decline in the average loan yield during the current quarter compared to the prior quarter was due to recovery of deferred interest upon the payoff of a multifamily loan in the prior quarter. The decline in the average balance during the current quarter was primarily due to loan growth late in the quarter and loan prepayments at the end of the second quarter. The increase in the average loan yield during the current quarter compared to the third quarter of 2022 was primarily due to variable rate loans adjusting to higher market interest rates and new loan originations at higher interest rates. The increase in the average balance of loans was primarily due to the loan growth during the latter half of 2022, partially offset by higher prepayments during 2023. Interest income on investments and interest-bearing cash increased $320 thousand to $1.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $861 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and increased $732 thousand from $449 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, due to a higher average yield on investments and interest-bearing cash and higher average balances.
Interest expense increased $850 thousand, or 23.2%, to $4.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from $3.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and increased $3.3 million, or 283.2%, from $1.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The increase in interest expense during the current quarter from the prior quarter was primarily the result of $29.0 million and $14.0 million increases in the average balance of savings and money market accounts and certificate accounts, respectively, as well as higher average rates paid on all categories of interest-bearing deposits (other than demand and NOW accounts), partially offset by a $20.6 million decrease in the average balance of demand and NOW accounts and a $5.3 million decrease in the average balance of borrowings, which were comprised of Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances. The increase in interest expense during the current quarter from the comparable period a year ago was primarily the result of a $163.3 million increase in the average balance of certificate accounts, as well as higher average rates paid on all interest-bearing liabilities (excluding subordinated notes), partially offset by a $91.6 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits other than certificate accounts. The average cost of FHLB advances decreased to 4.38% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from 4.56% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and increased from 2.40% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of our total borrowings, which included FHLB advances and subordinated notes, decreased to $54.5 million from $59.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and from $58.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, as deposit growth was used to repay borrowings.
NIM (annualized) was 3.38% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to 3.71% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and 4.13% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in NIM from the prior quarter was primarily due to the cost of funding increasing at a faster pace than the yield earned on interest-earning assets, driven by the higher average balance of money market and certificate accounts at higher interest rates. The decrease from the same quarter a
2
year ago was the result of an increase in the cost of funding, partially offset by an increase in interest income on interest-earning assets, driven by the higher average balance of and yield earned on loans and investments.
A provision for credit losses of $75 thousand was recorded for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, consisting of a provision for credit losses on loans of $224 thousand and a release of reserve for unfunded loan commitments of $149 thousand. This compared to a release of provision for credit losses of $331 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, consisting of a release of provision for credit losses on loans of $242 thousand and a release of reserve for unfunded loan commitments of $89 thousand, and a provision for credit losses of $346 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, consisting of a provision for loan losses of $375 thousand and a release of the reserve for unfunded loan commitments of $29 thousand. The Company adopted the CECL standard as of January 1, 2023. All amounts prior to January 1, 2023 reflect our use of the incurred loss methodology to compute our allowance for credit losses, which is not directly comparable to the new, current expected credit loss methodology. The increase in the provision for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2023 resulted primarily from the increase in our loans held-for-portfolio and an additional adjustment to our forecast related to the interest rate environment. In addition, expected loss estimates consider various factors including customer specific information, changes in risk ratings, projected delinquencies, and the impact of economic conditions on borrowers' ability to repay.
Noninterest income decreased $810 thousand, or 42.8%, to $1.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $1.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and increased $55 thousand, or 5.4% from $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The decrease from the prior quarter was primarily related to $568 thousand in earnings on death benefits paid under our BOLI policies in the second quarter of 2023. Additionally, the decrease in noninterest income from the prior quarter was due to a $174 thousand decrease in the fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights due to the size of the servicing portfolio shrinking at a faster rate than we can replace the loans due to the current interest rate environment. The increase in noninterest income from the comparable period in 2022 was due to $70 thousand in miscellaneous income related to an agreement with Mastercard, a $29 thousand increase in the cash surrender value of our bank-owned life insurance due to fluctuating market rates, and a $28 thousand increase in net gain on sale of loans as a result of an increase in the rate earned on loans originated for sale, partially offset by an $87 thousand decrease in the fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights primarily due to the size of the servicing portfolio shrinking at a faster rate than we can replace the loans due to the current interest rate environment. Loans sold during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, totaled $4.1 million, compared to $6.4 million and $2.3 million of loans sold during the quarters ended June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.
Noninterest expense increased $213 thousand, or 2.8%, to $7.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $7.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and increased $645 thousand, or 9.1%, from $7.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The increase from the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was primarily a result of higher operations expense and data processing expense, partially offset by lower salaries and benefits expense. The increase in operations expense was primarily due to various expenses, including debit card processing, communications and marketing partially due to timing of transactions and the level of transactional activity. Data processing expense increased as a result of $317 thousand in software costs related to new technology being implemented at the Bank, higher processing charges related to a higher volume of transactional activity, and the recovery of the write off of one large project during the second quarter of 2023. These increases were partially offset by lower salary and incentive compensation expense due partially to lower net income during the quarter as certain incentive compensation in the prior quarter included the impact from non-recurring income, higher deferred compensation, lower expense for temporary staffing or consultants, and lower medical expense as a result of an increase in claims during the second quarter moving back to normalized levels. The increase in noninterest expense compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to an increase in salaries and benefits of $104 thousand reflecting higher wages, lower deferred compensation and higher medical expense, partially offset by a decrease in incentive compensation as a result of fewer loans originated, changes to incentive compensation programs, including the addition of non-production performance requirements, and lower commission expense related to a decline in mortgage originations. Data processing expense increased as a result of the $317 thousand in software costs related to new technology being implemented at the Bank and higher processing charges related to a higher volume of transactional activity.

Balance Sheet Review, Capital Management and Credit Quality
Assets at September 30, 2023 totaled $1.03 billion, compared to $1.01 billion at June 30, 2023 and $982.2 million at September 30, 2022. The increase in total assets from June 30, 2023 was primarily due to an increase in loans held-for-portfolio. The increase from one year ago was primarily a result of increases in cash and cash equivalents and loans held-for-portfolio, partially offset by lower balances in investment securities.
Cash and cash equivalents increased $1.7 million, or 1.7%, to $101.9 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $100.2 million at June 30, 2023, and increased $25.8 million, or 34.0%, from $76.1 million at September 30, 2022. The increase from one year ago was primarily due to increases in deposits, partially offset by an increase in loans held-for-portfolio.
Investment securities decreased $426 thousand, or 4.0%, to $10.2 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $10.6 million at June 30, 2023, and decreased $2.4 million, or 19.4%, from $12.6 million at September 30, 2022. Held-to-maturity securities totaled $2.2 million at September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022. Available-for-sale securities totaled $8.0 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $8.4 million at June 30, 2023 and $10.4 million at September 30, 2022. The decrease in available-for-sale securities from the prior quarter-end was primarily due to regularly scheduled payments and higher net unrealized losses resulting from a decrease in market values during the current quarter. The decrease from one year ago was primarily due to the call of one municipal bond in the fourth quarter of 2022, regularly scheduled payments and maturities, and net unrealized losses resulting from the increases in market interest rates during the past 12 months, and the maturity of $1.6 million in treasury securities in the first quarter of 2023.
Loans held-for-portfolio increased to $875.4 million at September 30, 2023, from $855.4 million at June 30, 2023 and $851.4 million at September 30, 2022. The increase in loans held-for-portfolio at September 30, 2023, compared to June 30, 2023, primarily resulted from increases across all loan categories, with the largest increases occurring in one-to-four family real estate loans, manufactured loans and floating home loans. The increase in one-to-four family real estate loans from June 30, 2023 primarily resulted from an increase in bridge loans and an increase in related party loans. The increases in manufactured homes and floating home loans was primarily due to marketing campaigns. The increase in loans held-for-portfolio at September 30, 2023, compared to one year ago, primarily resulted from increases across all loan categories, excluding commercial and multifamily real estate loans. The increase from September 30, 2022 in loans held-for-portfolio primarily resulted from greater economic and lending activity in our market area during the fourth quarter of 2022.
Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”), which are comprised of nonaccrual loans, including nonperforming loan modifications, other real estate owned (“OREO”) and other repossessed assets, increased $251 thousand, or 12.1%, to $2.3 million at September 30, 2023, from $2.1 million at June 30, 2023 and decreased $808 thousand, or 25.7%, from $3.1 million at September 30, 2022. The increase in NPAs from the prior quarter-end was primarily due to the addition of three loans totaling $314 thousand to nonaccrual status, partially offset by payoffs and normal payment amortization. The decrease from one year ago was primarily due to the payoff of $1.5 million in nonperforming one-to-four family real estate loans related to a single borrower, the payoff of a $243 thousand other consumer loan, the write-off of one residential property for $84 thousand, and payoffs and normal amortization, partially offset by $1.2 million in additions, which included $740 thousand in one-to-four family real estate loans during the same period.
NPAs to total assets were 0.23%, 0.21% and 0.32% at September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. The allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans outstanding was 0.96%, 0.96% and 0.88% at September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. Net loan charge-offs for the third quarter of 2023 totaled $3 thousand, compared to $73 thousand for the second quarter of 2023, and $3 thousand for the third quarter of 2022.

(1) Represents the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses on January 1, 2023. Since that date, as a result of adopting ASU 2016-13, our methodology to compute our allowance for credit losses has been based on a current expected credit loss methodology, rather than the previously applied incurred loss methodology.
Deposits increased $38.6 million, or 4.7%, to $860.9 million at September 30, 2023, from $822.3 million at June 30, 2023 and increased $45.5 million, or 5.6%, from $815.4 million at September 30, 2022. The increase in deposits compared to the prior quarter-end was primarily a result of higher balances in certificate and money market accounts, partially offset by decreases in noninterest-bearing, interest-bearing and savings accounts. The overall increase was largely driven by one new related party depositor relationship for $32.6 million in the quarter. The increase in our deposits compared to one year ago was mainly a result of an increase in certificate accounts and the $32.6 million deposit relationship mentioned above, which were primarily used to fund organic loan growth,. Our noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $4.6 million, or 2.9%, to $153.9 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $158.5 million at June 30, 2023 and decreased $38.4 million, or 19.9%, from $192.3 million at September 30, 2022. Noninterest-bearing deposits represented 17.9%, 19.3% and 23.6% of total deposits at September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.
There were $40.0 million of outstanding FHLB advances at September 30, 2023, as compared to $60.0 million at June 30, 2023 and $44.5 million at September 30, 2022. FHLB advances are primarily used to support organic loan growth and to maintain liquidity ratios in line with our asset/liability objectives. Of the $40.0 million of FHLB advances outstanding at September 30, 2023, all were long-term with maturities ranging from late 2024 through early 2028. Subordinated notes, net totaled $11.7 million at each of September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022.
Stockholders’ equity totaled $100.2 million at September 30, 2023, an increase of $314 thousand, or 0.3%, from $99.9 million at June 30, 2023, and an increase of $5.3 million, or 5.6%, from $95.0 million at September 30, 2022. The increase in stockholders’ equity from June 30, 2023 was primarily the result of $1.2 million of net income earned during the current quarter, $88 thousand in share-based compensation and $17 thousand in proceeds from exercises of stock options, partially offset by the payment of $489 thousand in cash dividends to Company stockholders, a $243 thousand increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, and $228 thousand in stock repurchases. In addition, stockholders' equity at both September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 was negatively impacted by the adoption of CECL in the first quarter of 2023, which resulted in an after-tax decrease to opening retained earnings of $1.1 million.
