Provision for income tax decreased to $1.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, from $1.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

Effective July 1, 2022, the Company early adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-13 which requires an entity to use the new impairment model known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) to calculate the allowance for credit losses. The Company recorded a reduction to retained earnings of approximately $388,000 upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13. The transition adjustment included an increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans of $47,000 and an increase to the allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures of $496,000. The transition adjustment included a corresponding increase in deferred tax assets.

Total assets at March 31, 2023 were $843.0 million compared to $857.6 million at June 30, 2022. Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $9.5 million at March 31, 2023, from $75.8 million at June 30, 2022. Investment securities decreased to $207.7 million at March 31, 2023, from $220.9 million at June 30, 2022. Net loans receivable increased to $578.5 million at March 31, 2023, from $518.9 million at June 30, 2022. Deposits decreased to $691.6 million at March 31, 2023, from $752.0 million at June 30, 2022. The large decrease in deposits and cash and cash equivalents was partially due to approximately $57.6 million in deposits from a public entity that collects real estate taxes that were on deposit at June 30, 2022 and withdrawn in the nine months ended March 31, 2023, when tax monies were distributed. Total borrowings, including repurchase agreements, increased to $67.3 million at March 31, 2023 from $24.2 million at June 30, 2022. Stockholders’ equity increased to $73.7 million at March 31, 2023 from $71.7 million at June 30, 2022. Equity increased primarily due to net income of $4.1 million, and ESOP and stock equity plan activity of $1.2 million, partially offset by a decrease of $1.5 million in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, a decrease of $388,000 due to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, effective July 1, 2022, and the accrual of approximately $1.3 million in dividends to our shareholders, of which about half were still payable as of March 31, 2023, and were subsequently paid on April 14, 2023. The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was primarily due to unrealized depreciation on available-for-sale securities, net of tax.
