Anchor Anchor Anchor Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 – Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include Broadway Financial Corporation (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, City First Bank, National Association (the “Bank” and, together with the Company, “City First Broadway”). Also included in the unaudited consolidated financial statements are the following subsidiaries of City First Bank: 1432 U Street LLC, Broadway Service Corporation, City First Real Estate LLC, City First Real Estate II LLC, City First Real Estate III LLC, City First Real Estate IV LLC, and CF New Markets Advisors, LLC (“CFNMA”). In addition, CFNMA also consolidates CFC Fund Manager II, LLC; City First New Markets Fund II, LLC; City First Capital IX, LLC; and City First Capital 45, LLC (“CFC 45”) into its financial results. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with the Company’s consolidated annual financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (“2022 Form 10-K”) and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with such audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.

Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date these financial statements were issued.

Except as discussed below, our accounting policies are described in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of our audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2022 Form 10-K.

Allowance for Credit Losses – Securities

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company accounts for the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on securities in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 326 (“ASC 326”) – Financial Instruments-Credit Losses . The ACL on securities is recorded at the time of purchase or acquisition, representing the Company’s best estimate of current expected credit losses (“CECL”) as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition.

For available-for-sale investment securities, the Company performs a qualitative evaluation for those securities that are in an unrealized loss position to determine if the decline in fair value is credit related or non-credit related. In determining whether a security’s decline in fair value is credit related, the Company considers a number of factors including, but not limited to: (i) the extent to which the fair value of the investment is less than its amortized cost; (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; (iii) any downgrades in credit ratings; (iv) the payment structure of the security, (v) the ability of the issuer of the security to make scheduled principal and interest payments, and (vi) general market conditions which reflect prospects for the economy as a whole, including interest rates and sector credit spreads. For investment securities where the Company has reason to believe the credit loss exposure is remote, a zero credit loss assumption is applied. Such investment securities typically consist of those guaranteed by the U.S. government or other government enterprises, where there is an explicit or implicit guarantee by the U.S. government, that are highly rated by rating agencies, and historically have had no credit loss experience.

If it is determined that the unrealized loss, or a portion thereof, is credit related, the Company records the amount of credit loss through a charge to the provision for credit losses in current period earnings. However, the amount of credit loss recorded in current period earnings is limited to the amount of the total unrealized loss on the security, which is measured as the amount by which the security’s fair value is below its amortized cost. If the Company intends to sell a security that is in an unrealized loss position, or if it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell a security in an unrealized loss position, the total amount of the unrealized loss is recognized in current period earnings through the provision for credit losses. Unrealized losses deemed non-credit related are recorded, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The Company’s assessment of available-for-sale investment securities as of June 30, 2023, indicated that an ACL was not required. The Company analyzed available-for-sale investment securities that were in an unrealized loss position and determined the decline in fair value for those securities was not related to credit, but rather related to changes in interest rates and general market conditions. As such, no ACL was recorded for available-for-sale securities as of June 30, 2023.

Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company accounts for credit losses on loans in accordance with ASC 326, which requires the Company to record an estimate of expected lifetime credit losses for loans at the time of origination or acquisition. The ACL is maintained at a level deemed appropriate by management to provide for expected credit losses in the portfolio as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition. Estimating expected credit losses requires management to use relevant forward-looking information, including the use of reasonable and supportable forecasts. The measurement of the ACL is performed by collectively evaluating loans with similar risk characteristics. The Company measures the ACL for each of its loan segments using the weighted-average remaining maturity (“WARM”) method. The weighted average remaining life, including the effect of estimated prepayments, is calculated for each loan pool on a quarterly basis. The Company then estimates a loss rate for each pool using both its own historical loss experience and the historical losses of a group of peer institutions during the period from 2004 through the most recent quarter.

The Company’s ACL model also includes adjustments for qualitative factors, where appropriate. Since historical information (such as historical net losses) may not always, by itself, provide a sufficient basis for determining future expected credit losses, the Company periodically considers the need for qualitative adjustments to the ACL. Qualitative adjustments may include, but are not limited to factors such as: (i) changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collections, charge offs, and recovery practices; (ii) changes in international, national, regional, and local conditions; (iii) changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio and terms of loans; (iv) changes in the experience, depth, and ability of lending management; (v) changes in the volume and severity of past due loans and other similar conditions; (vi) changes in the quality of the organization’s loan review system; (vii) changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans; (viii) the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the levels of such concentrations; and (ix) the effect of other external factors (i.e., competition, legal and regulatory requirements) on the level of estimated credit losses.

The Company has a credit portfolio review process designed to detect problem loans. Problem loans are typically those of a substandard or worse internal risk grade, and may consist of loans on nonaccrual status, loans that have recently been modified in response to a borrower’s deteriorating financial condition, loans where the likelihood of foreclosure on underlying collateral has increased, collateral dependent loans, and other loans where concern or doubt over the ultimate collectability of all contractual amounts due has become elevated. Such loans may, in the opinion of management, be deemed to no longer possess risk characteristics similar to other loans in the loan portfolio, because the specific attributes and risks associated with the loan have likely become unique as the credit quality of the loan deteriorates. As such, these loans may require individual evaluation to determine an appropriate ACL for the loan. When a loan is individually evaluated, the Company typically measures the expected credit loss for the loan based on a discounted cash flow approach, unless the loan has been deemed collateral dependent. Collateral dependent loans are loans where the repayment of the loan is expected to come from the operation of and/or eventual liquidation of the underlying collateral. The ACL for collateral dependent loans is determined using estimates of the fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated selling costs.

The estimation of the appropriate level of the ACL requires significant judgment by management. Although management uses the best information available to make these estimations, future adjustments to the ACL may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory, and other conditions that may extend beyond the Company’s control. Changes in management’s estimates of forecasted net losses could materially change the level of the ACL. Additionally, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s ACL and credit review process. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the ACL based on judgments different from those of management.

The Company has segmented the loan portfolio according to loans that share similar attributes and risk characteristics. Each segment possesses varying degrees of risk based on, among other things, the type of loan, the type of collateral, and the sensitivity of the borrower or industry to changes in external factors such as economic conditions. The Company determines the ACL for loans based on this more detailed loan segmentation and classification. These segments, and the risks associated with each segment, are as follows:

Real Estate: Single Family – Subject to adverse employment conditions in the local economy leading to increased default rate, decreased market values from oversupply in a geographic area and incremental rate increases on adjustable-rate mortgages which may impact the ability of borrowers to maintain payments.

Real Estate: Multi‑Family – Subject to adverse various market conditions that cause a decrease in market value or lease rates, changes in personal funding sources for tenants, oversupply of units in a specific region, population shifts and reputational risks.

Real Estate: Commercial Real Estate – Subject to adverse conditions in the local economy which may lead to reduced cash flows due to vacancies and reduced rental rates, and decreases in the value of underlying collateral.

Real Estate: Church – Subject to adverse economic and employment conditions, which may lead to reduced cash flows from members’ donations and offerings, and the stability, quality, and popularity of church leadership.

Table of Contents

Real Estate: Construction – Subject to adverse conditions in the local economy, which may lead to reduced demand for new commercial, multi‑family, or single family buildings or reduced lease or sale opportunities once the building is complete.

Commercial and SBA Loans – Subject to industry and economic conditions including decreases in product demand.

Consumer – Subject to adverse employment conditions in the local economy, which may lead to higher default rates.

Modified Loans to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

In certain instances, the Company makes modifications to loans in order to alleviate temporary difficulties in the borrower’s financial condition and/or constraints on the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, and to minimize potential losses to the Company. Modifications may include: changes in the amortization terms of the loan, reductions in interest rates, acceptance of interest only payments, and reductions to the outstanding loan balance (or any combination of such changes). Such loans are typically placed on nonaccrual status when there is doubt concerning the full repayment of principal and interest or the loan has been in default for a period of 90 days or more. Such loans may be returned to accrual status when all contractual amounts past due have been brought current, and the borrower’s performance under the modified terms of the loan agreement and the ultimate collectability of all contractual amounts due under the modified terms is no longer in doubt. The Company typically measures the ACL on these loans on an individual basis as the loans are deemed to no longer have risk characteristics that are similar to other loans in the portfolio. The determination of the ACL for these loans is based on a discounted cash flow approach, unless the loan is deemed collateral dependent, which requires measurement of the ACL based on the estimated expected fair value of the underlying collateral, less selling costs.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 – Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 32 6): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . This ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment model in previous GAAP with a model that reflects current expected credit losses. The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. CECL also requires credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities be measured through an allowance for credit losses when the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. The new guidance also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures. The ASU requires that all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date be measured based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The ASU also requires enhanced disclosures, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures that provide additional information about significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses. The provisions of this ASU became effective for the Company for all annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2023.

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04 – Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815-Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825-Financial Instruments . This ASU was issued as part of an ongoing project on the FASB’s agenda for improving the Codification or correcting for its unintended application. The amendments in this ASU became effective for all interim and annual reporting periods for the Company on January 1, 2023. The Company adopted the provisions within this ASU in conjunction with the implementation of ASC 326, including: (i) the election to not measure credit losses on accrued interest receivable when such balances are written-off in a timely manner when deemed uncollectable and (ii) the election to not include the balance of accrued interest receivable as part of the amortized cost of a loan or security.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05 - Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief . This ASU was issued to allow entities that have certain financial instruments within the scope of ASC 326-20 - Financial Instruments-Credit Losses-Measured at Amortized Cost to make an irrevocable election to elect the fair value option for those instruments in accordance with ASC 825 – Financial Instruments upon the adoption of ASC 326, which for the Company was January 1, 2023. The fair value option is not applicable to held-to-maturity debt securities. Entities are required to make this election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of its financial assets upon the adoption of ASC 326.

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 326 through the application of the modified retrospective transition approach, and recorded a net decrease of $ 1.3 million to the beginning balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2023 for the cumulative effect adjustment. The following table illustrates the impact of the adoption of the CECL model under ASC 326 on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position as of January 1, 2023:

	Pre-CECL Adoption	Impact of CECL Adoption
		(In thousands)

Allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities	$ –	$ –	$	–
Allowance for credit losses on loans	4,388	1,809		6,197

Liabilities:
Allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet exposures	412	( 45	)	367
Stockholders’ equity:
Retained earnings	9,294	( 1,256	)	8,038

The Company’s assessment of available-for-sale investment securities as of January 1, 2023 indicated that an ACL was not required. The Company analyzed available-for-sale investment securities that were in an unrealized loss position as of the date of adoption and determined the decline in fair value for those securities was not related to credit, but rather related to changes in interest rates and general market conditions. As such, no ACL was recorded for available-for-sale securities as of January 1, 2023.

Upon the adoption of ASC 326, the Company did not reassess purchased loans with credit deterioration (previously classified as purchased credit impaired loans under ASC 310-30).

In February 2019, the U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies approved a final rule modifying their regulatory capital rules and providing an option to phase in the adverse regulatory capital effects of the impact of adoption of ASC 326 over a three-year period. As a result, entities have the option to gradually phase in the full effect of CECL on regulatory capital over a three-year transition period. The Company implemented its CECL model commencing January 1, 2023 and elected to phase in the effect of CECL on regulatory capital over the three-year transition period.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02 – Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) : Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures . The FASB issued this ASU in response to feedback the FASB received from various stakeholders in its post-implementation review process related to the issuance of ASU 2016-13. The amendments in this ASU include the elimination of accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) in Subtopic 310-40 – Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors , and introduce new disclosures and enhance existing disclosures concerning certain loan refinancings and restructurings when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Under the provisions of this ASU, an entity must determine whether a modification results in a new loan or the continuation of an existing loan. Further, the amendments in this ASU require that an entity disclose current period gross charge-offs on financing receivables within the scope of ASC 326 by year of origination and class of financing receivable. The amendments in this ASU became effective for the Company on January 1, 2023, for all interim and annual periods. The adoption of the provisions in this ASU are applied prospectively and have resulted in additional disclosures concerning modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, as well as disaggregated disclosure of charge-offs on loans.

NOTE 2 – Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

Basic earnings per share of common stock is computed pursuant to the two-class method by dividing net income available to common stockholders less dividends paid on participating securities (unvested shares of restricted common stock) and any undistributed earnings attributable to participating securities by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average common shares outstanding includes the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding less the weighted average number of unvested shares of restricted common stock. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) shares are considered outstanding for this calculation unless unearned. Diluted earnings per share of common stock includes the dilutive effect of unvested stock awards and additional potential common shares issuable under stock options.

The following table shows how the Company computed basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock for the periods indicated:

(1) Including Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans.

(2) The allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2022 was accounted for under ASC 450 and ASC 310, which is reflective of probable incurred losses as of the date of the consolidated statement of financial condition. Effective January 1, 2023, the allowance for credit losses is accounted for under ASC 326, which is reflective of estimated expected lifetime credit losses.

Prior to the adoption of ASC 326, loans that were purchased in a business combination that showed evidence of credit deterioration since their origination and for which it was probable, at acquisition, that not all contractually required payments would be collected were classified as purchased-credit impaired (“PCI”). The Company accounted for PCI loans and associated income recognition in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-30 – Receivables-Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Upon acquisition, the Company measured the amount by which the undiscounted expected cash future flows on PCI loans exceeded the estimated fair value of the loan as the “accretable yield,” representing the amount of estimated future interest income on the loan. The amount of accretable yield was re-measured at each financial reporting date, representing the difference between the remaining undiscounted expected cash flows and the current carrying value of the PCI loan. The accretable yield on PCI loans was recognized in interest income using the interest method.

Following the adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, the Company analyzes all acquired loans at the time of acquisition for more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since their origination date. Such loans are classified as purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans. Acquired loans classified as PCD are recorded at an initial amortized cost, which is comprised of the purchase price of the loans and the initial ACL determined for the loans, which is added to the purchase price, and any resulting discount or premium related to factors other than credit. PCI loans were considered to be PCD loans at the date of adoption of ASC 326. The Company accounts for interest income on PCD loans using the interest method, whereby any purchase discounts or premiums are accreted or amortized into interest income as an adjustment of the loan’s yield. An accretable yield is not determined for PCD loans.

As part of the CFBanc merger on April 1, 2021, the Company acquired PCI loans. Prior to the CFBanc merger, there were no such acquired loans . The carrying amount of those loans was as follows:

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company accounts for credit losses on loans in accordance with ASC 326. ASC 326 requires the Company to recognize estimates for lifetime losses on loans and off-balance sheet loan commitments at the time of origination or acquisition. The recognition of losses at origination or acquisition represents the Company’s best estimate of the lifetime expected credit loss associated with a loan given the facts and circumstances associated with the particular loan, and involves the use of significant management judgement and estimates, which are subject to change based on management’s on-going assessment of the credit quality of the loan portfolio and changes in economic forecasts used in the model. The Company uses the WARM method when determining estimates for the ACL for each of its portfolio segments. The weighted average remaining life, including the effect of estimated prepayments, is calculated for each loan pool on a quarterly basis. The Company then estimates a loss rate for each pool using both its own historical loss experience and the historical losses of a group of peer institutions during the period from 2004 through the most recent quarter.

The Company’s ACL model also includes adjustments for qualitative factors, where appropriate. Qualitative adjustments may include, but are not limited to factors such as: (i) changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collections, charge offs, and recovery practices; (ii) changes in international, national, regional, and local conditions; (iii) changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio and terms of loans; (iv) changes in the experience, depth, and ability of lending management; (v) changes in the volume and severity of past due loans and other similar conditions; (vi) changes in the quality of the organization’s loan review system; (vii) changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans; (viii) the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the levels of such concentrations; and (ix) the effect of other external factors (i.e., competition, legal and regulatory requirements) on the level of estimated credit losses.

The increase in ACL during the three months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to growth in multi-family, construction and other commercial loans. The increase in ACL during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was due to the implementation of the CECL methodology adopted by the Bank effective January 1, 2023, which increased the ACL by $ 1.8 million , in addition to growth in the loan portfolio, primarily during the second quarter. The CECL methodology includes estimates of expected loss rates in the future, whereas the former Allowance for Loan and Lease (“ALLL”) methodology did not .

Prior to the Company’s adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, the Company maintained ALLL in accordance with ASC 310 and ASC 450 that covered estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans that were determined to be impaired, as well as estimated probable incurred losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio.

Beginning on January 1, 2023, the Company evaluates loans collectively for purposes of determining the ACL in accordance with ASC 326. Collective evaluation is based on aggregating loans deemed to possess similar risk characteristics. In certain instances, the Company may identify loans that it believes no longer possess risk characteristics similar to other loans in the loan portfolio. These loans are typically identified from those that have exhibited deterioration in credit quality, since the specific attributes and risks associated with such loans tend to become unique as the credit deteriorates. Such loans are typically nonperforming, downgraded to substandard or worse, and/or are deemed collateral dependent, where the ultimate repayment of the loan is expected to come from the operation of or eventual sale of the collateral. Loans that are deemed by management to no longer possess risk characteristics similar to other loans in the portfolio, or that have been identified as collateral dependent, are evaluated individually for purposes of determining an appropriate lifetime ACL. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach, using the loan’s effective interest rate, for determining the ACL on individually evaluated loans, unless the loan is deemed collateral dependent, which requires evaluation based on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated selling costs. The Company may increase or decrease the ACL for collateral dependent loans based on changes in the estimated fair value of the collateral.

The following table presents collateral dependent loans by collateral type as of the date indicated:

	June 30, 2023 — Single Family	Multi-Use Residential	Church	Business Assets	Total

Table of Contents

At June 30, 2023, $ 6.8 million of individually evaluated loans were evaluated based on the underlying value of the collateral and no individually evaluated loans were evaluated using a discounted cash flow approach. These loans had an associated ACL of $ 119 thousand as of June 30, 2023. The increase in multi-use residential loans was due to one loan whose payments were being supported by a guarantor as of June 30, 2023. There was no ACL associated with this loan as of June 30, 2023. None of these collateral dependent loans were on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2023 .

Prior to the adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, the Company classified loans as impaired when, based on current information and events, it was probable that the Company would be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement or it was determined that the likelihood of the Company receiving all scheduled payments, including interest, when due was remote. Credit losses on impaired loans were determined separately based on the guidance in ASC 310. Beginning January 1, 2023, the Company accounts for credit losses on all loans in accordance with ASC 326, which eliminates the concept of an impaired loan within the context of determining credit losses, and requires all loans to be evaluated for credit losses collectively based on similar risk characteristics. Loans are only evaluated individually when they are deemed to no longer possess similar risk characteristics with other loans in the loan portfolio.

There were no loans 90 days or more delinquent that were accruing interest as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Modified Loans to Troubled Borrowers

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2022-02, which introduces new reporting requirements for modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. GAAP requires that certain types of modifications of loans in response to a borrower’s financial difficulty be reported, which consist of the following: (i) principal forgiveness, (ii) interest rate reduction, (iii) other-than-insignificant payment delay, (iv) term extension, or (v) any combination of the foregoing. The ACL for loans that were modified in response to a borrower’s financial difficulty is measured on a collective basis, as with other loans in the loan portfolio, unless management determines that such loans no longer possess risk characteristics similar to others in the loan portfolio. In those instances, the ACL for such loans is determined through individual evaluation. There were no loan modifications to borrowers that were experiencing financial difficulty during the three or six months ended June 30, 2023.

Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs)

Prior to the adoption of ASU 2022-02 – Financial Instruments-Credit Losses: Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures on January 1, 2023, the Company accounted for TDRs in accordance with ASC 310-40. When a loan to a borrower that was experiencing financial difficulty was modified in response to that difficulty, the loan was classified as a TDR. At December 31, 2022, loans classified as TDRs totaled $ 1.7 million, of which $ 144 thousand were included in non-accrual loans and $ 1.6 million were on accrual status. The Company had allocated $ 7 thousand of specific reserves for accruing TDRs as of December 31, 2022. TDRs on accrual status were comprised of loans that were accruing at the time of restructuring or loans that have complied with the terms of their restructured agreements for a satisfactory period of time and for which the Company anticipates full repayment of both principal and interest. TDRs that were on non-accrual status could be returned to accrual status after a period of sustained performance, generally determined to be six months of timely payments, as modified.

ASU 2022-02 eliminated the concept of TDRs in current GAAP, and therefore, beginning January 1, 2023, the Company no longer reports loans modified as TDRs except for those loans modified and reported as TDRs in prior period financial information under previous GAAP.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. For single family residential, consumer and other smaller balance homogenous loans, a credit grade is established at inception, and generally only adjusted based on performance. Information about payment status is disclosed elsewhere herein. The Company analyzes all other loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed at least on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

● Watch. Loans classified as watch exhibit weaknesses that could threaten the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors. Watch graded loans are generally performing and are not more than 59 days past due. A watch rating is used when a material deficiency exists, but correction is anticipated within an acceptable time frame.

● Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

● Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

● Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

● Loss. Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that to continue to carry the loan as an active asset is no longer warranted.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans. Pass rated loans are generally well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor and/or by the value of the underlying collateral. Pass rated loans are not more than 59 days past due and are generally performing in accordance with the loan terms.

Allowance for Credit Losses for Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet commitments related to unfunded loans and lines of credit, which is included in other liabilities of the consolidated statements of financial condition. Upon the Company’s adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, the Company applies an expected credit loss estimation methodology for off-balance sheet commitments. This methodology is commensurate with the methodology applied to each respective segment of the loan portfolio in determining the ACL for loans held-for-investment. The loss estimation process includes assumptions for the probability that a loan will fund, as well as the expected amount of funding. These assumptions are based on the Company’s own historical internal loan data.

The allowance for off-balance sheet commitments was $ 404 thousand and $ 412 thousand at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. This amount is included in other liabilities on the balance sheet.

NOTE 6 – Borrowings

T he Company enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. Under these arrangements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets. As a result, these repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing agreements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The obligation to repurchase the sec urities is reflected as a liability in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition, w hile the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts. In other words, there is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities. These agreements mature on a daily basis. As of June 30, 2023 securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled $ 71.4 million at an average rate of 3.01 %. The market value of securities pledged totaled $ 86.3 million as of June 30, 2023 , and included $ 33.5 million of U.S. Treasuries, $ 31.3 million of U.S. Government Agency securities, $ 14.5 million of mortgage-backed securities and $ 7.0 million of federal agency CMO. As of December 31, 2022, securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled $ 63.5 million at an average rate of 0.38 %. The market value of securities pledged totaled $ 64.4 million as of December 31, 2022, and included $ 33.3 million of federal agency debt, $ 19.2 million of U.S. Treasuries and $ 11.9 million of federal agency mortgage-backed securities.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding advances from the FHLB totaling $ 210.3 million and $ 128.3 million, respectively. The weighted interest rate was 4.74 % and 3.74 % as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The weighted average contractual maturity was 3 months and 13 months as of June 30 , 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The advances were collateralized by loans with a fair value of $ 446.3 million at June 30 , 2023 and $ 328.1 million at December 31, 202 2. The Company is currently approved by the FHLB of Atlanta to borrow up to 25 % of total assets to the extent the Company provides qualifying collateral and holds sufficient FHLB stock. Based on collateral pledged and FHLB stock as of June 30 , 2023 , the Company was eligible to borrow an additional $ 120.8 million as of June 30 , 2023 .

In addition, the Company had additional lines of credit of $ 10.0 million with other financial institutions as of June 30, 2023. These lines of credit are unsecured, bear interest at the Federal funds rate as of the date of utilization, and mature in 30 days.

In connection with the New Market Tax Credit activities of the Bank, CFC 45 is a partnership whose members include CFNMA and City First New Markets Fund II, LLC. This community development entity (“CDE”) acts in effect as a pass-through for a Merrill Lynch allocation totaling $ 14.0 million that needed to be deployed. In December 2015, Merrill Lynch made a $ 14.0 million non-recourse loan to CFC 45, whereby CFC 45 passed that loan through to a Qualified Active Low-Income Business (“QALICB”). The loan to the QALICB is secured by a Leasehold Deed of Trust that, due to the pass-through, non-recourse structure, is operationally and ultimately for the benefit of Merrill Lynch rather than CFC 45. Debt service payments received by CFC 45 from the QALICB are passed through to Merrill Lynch in return for which CFC 45 receives a servicing fee. The financial statements of CFC 45 are consolidated with those of the Bank and the Company.

There are two notes for CFC 45. Note A is in the amount of $ 9.9 million with a fixed interest rate of 5.2 % per annum. Note B is in the amount of $ 4.1 million with a fixed interest rate of 0.24 % per annum. Quarterly interest only payments commenced in March 2016 and continued through March 2023 for Notes A and B. Beginning in September 2023, quarterly principal and interest payments will be due for Notes A and B. Both notes will mature on December 1, 2040 .

NOTE 7 – Fair Value

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

The fair values of securities available-for-sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs).

The fair value of loans that are collateral dependent is generally based upon the fair value of the collateral, which is obtained from 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. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Collateral dependent loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional required calculation adjustments (taken as part of the ACL) and adjusted accordingly.

Assets acquired through or by transfer in lieu of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals which are updated every nine months. 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. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Real estate owned properties are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Appraisals for collateral-dependent loans and assets acquired through or by transfer of in lieu of foreclosure are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, an independent third-party licensed appraiser reviews the appraisals for accuracy and reasonableness, reviewing the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics.

In accordance with ASU No. 2016-01, the fair value of financial assets and liabilities was measured using an exit price notion. Although the exit price notion represents the value that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, the actual price received for a sale of assets or paid to transfer liabilities could be different from exit price disclosed.

NOTE 8 – Stock-based Compensation

Prior to June 21, 2023, the Company issued stock-based compensation awards to its directors and officers under the 2018 Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) which allowed the grant of non-qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, full value awards and cash incentive awards. The maximum number of shares that could be awarded under that plan was 1,293,109 shares.

During February of 2023 and 2022, the Company issued 73,840 and 47,187 shares of stock, respectively, to its directors under the LTIP, which were fully vested. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $ 95 thousand and $ 58 thousand of director stock compensation expense, respectively, based on the fair value of the stock, which was determined using the fair value of the stock on the dates of the awards.

During March of 2022, the Company issued 495,262 shares of restricted stock to its officers and employees under the LTIP, of which 82,556 shares have been forfeited as of June 30, 2023. Each restricted stock award was valued based on the fair value of the stock on the date of the award. These awarded shares of restricted stock fully vest over periods ranging from 36 months to 60 months from their respective dates of grant. Stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $ 37 thousand and $ 43 thousand of stock-based compensation expense, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $ 75 thousand and $ 45 thousand of stock-based compensation expense, respectively.

On June 21, 2023, the Company issued 741,758 shares to its officers and employees under the Amended and Restated LTIP, of which no shares have been forfeited as of June 30, 2023. Each restricted stock award was valued based on the fair value of the stock on the date of the award. These awarded shares of restricted stock fully vest over periods ranging from 36 months to 60 months from their respective dates of grant. Stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded $ 16 thousand of stock-based compensation expense related to these restricted stock awards.

NOTE 9 – ESOP Plan

Employees participate in the ESOP after attaining certain age and service requirements. In 2022, the ESOP purchased 466,955 shares of the Company’s common stock at an average cost of $ 1.07 per share for a total cost of $ 500 thousand and during the first six months of 2023 the ESOP purchased 2,369,086 shares of the Company’s common stock at an average cost of $ 1.18 per share for a total cost of $ 2.8 million. These purchases were funded with a $ 5.0 million line of credit from the Company. The loan will be repaid from the Bank’s annual discretionary contributions to the ESOP, net of dividends paid, over a period of 20 years . Shares of the Company’s common stock purchased by the ESOP are held in a suspense account until released for allocation to participants. When loan payments are made, shares are allocated to each eligible participant based on the ratio of each such participant’s compensation, as defined in the ESOP, to the total compensation of all eligible plan participants. As the unearned shares are released from the suspense account, the Company recognizes compensation expense equal to the fair value of the ESOP shares during the periods in which they become committed to be released. To the extent that the fair value of the ESOP shares released differs from the cost of such shares, the difference is charged or credited to equity as additional paid-in capital. Any dividends on allocated shares increase participant accounts. Any dividends on unallocated shares will be used to repay the loan. Participants will receive shares for their vested balance at the end of their employment. Compensation expense related to the ESOP was $ 10 thousand and $ 27 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $ 22 thousand and $ 45 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

NOTE 10 – Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Matters

On June 7, 2022, the Company issued 150,000 shares of Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred stock, Series C (“Series C Preferred Stock”), for the capital investment of $ 150.0 million from the U.S. Treasury under the Emergency Capital Investment Program (“ECIP”). ECIP investment is treated as Tier 1 Capital for the regulatory capital treatment.

The Series C Preferred stock may be redeemed at the option of the Company on or after the fifth anniversary of issuance (or earlier in the event of loss of regulatory capital treatment), subject to the approval of the appropriate federal banking regulator in accordance with the federal banking agencies’ regulatory capital regulations.

The initial dividend rate of the Series C Preferred Stock is zero percent for the first two years after issuance, and thereafter the floor dividend rate is 0.50 % and the ceiling dividend rate is 2.00 %.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company completed the exchange of all the Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, with an aggregate liquidation rate of $ 3 million, plus accrued dividends, for 1,193,317 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exchange price of $ 2.51 per share of Class A Common Stock.

The Bank’s capital requirements are administered by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) and involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the OCC. Failure to meet capital requirements can result in regulatory action.

As a result of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act, the federal banking agencies have developed a “Community Bank Leverage Ratio” (“CBLR”) (the ratio of a bank’s tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets) for financial institutions with assets of less than $10 billion. A “qualifying community bank” that exceeds this ratio will be deemed to be in compliance with all other capital and leverage requirements, including the capital requirements to be considered “well capitalized” under Prompt Corrective Action statutes. The federal banking agencies have set the Community Bank Leverage Ratio at 9%. Actual and required capital amounts and ratios as of the dates indicated are presented below:

	Actual — Amount	Ratio	Minimum Required to Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions — Amount	Ratio
	(Dollars in thousands)
June 30 , 2023 :
Community Bank Leverage Ratio	$ 182,198	15.35 %	$ 106,847	9.00 %
December 31 , 2022 :
Community Bank Leverage Ratio	$ 181,304	15.75 %	$ 103,591	9.00 %

At June 30, 2023, the Company and the Bank met all the capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject. In addition, the Bank was “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since June 30 , 2023 that would materially adversely change the Bank’s capital classifications. From time to time, the Bank may need to raise additional capital to support its further growth and to maintain its “well capitalized” status.

NOTE 11 – Income Taxes

T he Company and its subsidiary are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management evaluated both positive and negative evidence, including the existence of cumulative losses in the current year and the prior two years , the amount of taxes paid in available carry-back years, the forecasts of future income and tax planning strategies.

Table of Contents

At June 30, 2023, the Company maintained a $ 369 thousand valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets because the number of shares sold in the private placements completed on April 6, 2021 triggered limitations on the use of certain tax attributes under the Section 382 of the federal tax code. The ability to use net operating losses (“NOLs”) to offset future taxable income will be restricted and these NOLs could expire or otherwise be unavailable. In general, under Section 382 of the Code and corresponding provisions of state law, a corporation that undergoes an “ownership change” is subject to limitations on its ability to utilize its pre-change NOLs to offset future taxable income. For these purposes, an ownership change generally occurs where the aggregate stock ownership of one or more stockholders or groups of stockholders who owns at least 5% of a corporation’s stock increases its ownership by more than 50 percentage points over its lowest ownership percentage within a specified testing period.

NOTE 12 – Concentration of Credit Risk

The Bank has a significant concentration of deposits with one customer that accounted for approximately 9 % of its deposits as of June 30, 2023. The Bank a lso h as a significant concentration of short-term borrowings from one customer that accounted for 76 % of the outstanding balance of securities sold under agreements to repurchase as of June 30, 2023. The Company expects to maintain the relationships with these customers for the foreseeable future.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in Part I “Item 1, Financial Statements,” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Certain statements herein are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements typically include words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “poised,” “optimistic,” “prospects,” “ability,” “looking,” “forward,” “invest,” “grow,” “improve,” “deliver” and other similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual future results to differ materially from historical results or from those anticipated or implied by such statements. Readers should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates or, if no date is provided, then as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Critical accounting policies are those that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations under different assumptions and conditions. This discussion highlights those accounting policies that management considers critical. All accounting policies are important; however, and therefore you are encouraged to review each of the policies included in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Principles” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2022 Form 10-K to gain a better understanding of how our financial performance is measured and reported. Management has identified the Company’s critical accounting policies as follows:

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company accounts for credit losses on loans in accordance with ASC 326, which requires the Company to record an estimate of expected lifetime credit losses for loans at the time of origination or acquisition. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) is maintained at a level deemed appropriate by management to provide for expected credit losses in the portfolio as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition. Estimating expected credit losses requires management to use relevant forward-looking information, including the use of reasonable and supportable forecasts. The measurement of the ACL is performed by collectively evaluating loans with similar risk characteristics. The Company measures the ACL for each of its loan segments using the weighted-average remaining maturity (“WARM”) method. The weighted average remaining life, including the effect of estimated prepayments, is calculated for each loan pool on a quarterly basis. The Company then estimates a loss rate for each pool using both its own historical loss experience and the historical losses of a group of peer institutions. The Company’s ACL model also includes adjustments for qualitative factors, where appropriate.

Certain loans, such as those that are nonperforming or are considered to be collateral dependent, are deemed to no longer possess risk characteristics similar to other loans in the loan portfolio, because the specific attributes and risks associated with the loan have likely become unique as the credit quality of the loan deteriorates. As such, these loans may require individual evaluation to determine an appropriate ACL for the loan. When a loan is individually evaluated, the Company typically measures the expected credit loss for the loan based on a discounted cash flow approach, unless the loan has been deemed collateral dependent in which case the ACL is determined using estimates of the fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated selling costs.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Prior to the adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, the ALLL was accounted for under the guidance of ASC 310 and 450. The ALLL was considered a critical estimate due to the high degree of judgment involved, the subjectivity of the underlying assumptions used, and the potential for changes in the economic environment that could have resulted in material changes in the amount of the ALLL considered necessary. The ALLL was evaluated on a regular basis by management and the Board of Directors and was based on a periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and size of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers’ ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing economic conditions, and feedback from regulatory examinations.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and that are determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate the necessity for such impairment tests to be performed. The Company has selected November 30th as the date to perform the annual impairment test. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the Company’s consolidated statement of financial condition.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets when, based upon the available evidence including historical and projected taxable income, it is more likely than not that some or all the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management evaluates both positive and negative evidence, including the existence of any cumulative losses in the current year and the prior two years, the amount of taxes paid in available carry‑back years, forecasts of future income and available tax planning strategies. This analysis is updated quarterly.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (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. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant 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 company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Fair values are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.

Overview

Total assets increased by $47.1 million to $1.2 billion at June 30, 2023 from December 31, 2022, primarily due to growth in loans receivable held for investment of $56.6 million, partially offset by a decrease of securities available-for-sale of $6.2 million and a decrease of cash and cash equivalents of $5.4 million.

Loans held for investment, net of the ACL, increased by $56.6 million to $824.6 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $768.0 million at December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to loan originations of $98.2 million during the first six months of 2023, which consisted of $38.6 million of multi-family loans, $36.6 million of construction loans and $23.0 million of other commercial loans, offset in part by loan payoffs and repayments of $41.6 million.

Deposits decreased by $40.9 million to $646.1 million at June 30, 2023, from $686.9 million at December 31, 2022, with $29.4 million of the decrease occurring in the first quarter of 2023. Management has made reasonable attempts to be responsive to the higher interest rate environment, but some depositors have left the Bank for the highest rates available from other financial institutions in response to rate increases by the Federal Reserve. As of June 30, 2023, our uninsured deposits, including deposits from affiliates, represented 38% of our total deposits, as compared to 31% as of December 31, 2022.

Total borrowings increased by $89.8 million to $295.6 million at June 30, 2023 , from $205.8 million at December 31, 2022, primarily due to a net increase of $81.9 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (the “FHLB”) of Atlanta and $7.9 million in additional securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

Stockholders’ equity was $277.3 million, or 22.5% of the Company’s total assets, at June 30, 2023, compared to $279.5 million, or 23.6% of the Company’s total assets, at December 31, 2022. Upon adoption of CECL on January 1, 2023, the Company recognized a net decrease in retained earnings of $1.3 million. S tockholders’ equity also decreased due to an increase in unearned shares in the employee stock ownership plan of $2.8 million. These decreases were offset by year-to-date net earnings of $1.8 million and a reduction of $54 thousand in the accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Book value per share was $1.71 at June 30, 2023 and $1.76 at December 31, 2022.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company reported consolidated net earnings of $246 thousand compared to consolidated net earnings of $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in net earnings was primarily due to an increase in interest expense before provision for credit losses of $4.0 million, which more than offset growth in interest income of $3.3 million. The decrease in net earnings was also attributable to a provision for credit losses of $768 thousand during the second quarter of 2023, compared to a recapture of credit losses of $577 thousand during the second quarter of 2022, and an increase in non-interest expense of $155 thousand.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company reported net income of $1.8 million compared to net income of $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease primarily resulted from a provision for credit losses of $810 thousand during the first six months of 2023, compared to a recapture of credit losses of $429 thousand during the first six months of 2022. In addition, non-interest expense increased by $447 thousand during the first six months of 2023, compared to the first six months of 2022. These amounts were partially offset by improvement in net interest income of $332 thousand during the first six months of 2023, compared to the first six months of 2022.

Net Interest Income

Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022

Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $7.3 million, representing a decrease of $770 thousand, or 9.6%, from net interest income before loan loss provision of $8.0 million for the second quarter of 2022. The decrease resulted from additional interest expense due to an increase of $154.5 million in average borrowings during the second quarter of 2023, compared to the second quarter of 2022, at an average borrowing rate of 4.30% during the second quarter of 2023, compared to an average borrowing rate of 0.42% during the second quarter of 2022. The increase in borrowings was due to a decrease in average deposits of $187.3 million during the second quarter of 2023, compared to the second quarter of 2022, with all but $17.4 million of the decrease in average deposits occurring prior to the start of the second quarter of 2023. Net interest margin decreased to 2.52% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 3.00% for the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to an increase of 190 basis points in the average cost of funds, which reflected higher rates paid on deposits and borrowings because of the ten interest rate increases implemented by the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve (the “Federal Reserve” or “FRB”) from March of 2022 through June of 2023. The impact of the rising cost of funds was partially offset by an increase in the yield on interest-earnings assets of 86 basis points, primarily due to higher rates earned on securities, interest-earning deposits, and, to a lesser extent, the loan portfolio.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022

Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 totaled $15.5 million, representing an increase of $332 thousand, or 2.2%, over net interest income before loan loss provision of $15.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase resulted from additional interest income, primarily generated from growth of $81.9 million in average interest-earning assets during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. In addition, the overall rate earned on interest-earning assets increased by 88 basis points as the Bank earned higher rates on securities, interest-earning deposits, and, to a lesser extent, the loan portfolio. Net interest margin decreased, however, to 2.74% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 2.89% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase of 149 basis points in the average cost of funds, which grew to 1.76% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from 0.27% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in the cost of funds reflected the higher rates that the Bank paid on deposits and borrowings because of the interest rate increases implemented by the FRB.

The following tables set forth the average balances, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. All average balances are daily average balances. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred loan fees, and discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense. We do not accrue interest on loans on non-accrual status, but the balance of these loans is included in the total average balance of loans receivable, which has the effect of reducing average loan yields.

Credit loss provision

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a provision for credit loss under the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) methodology of $768 thousand , compared to a loan loss provision recapture under the previously used incurred loss model of $577 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $810 thousand , compared to a loan loss provision recapture of $429 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increases in the provisions for credit losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were due to growth in our loan portfolio and increases in loans rated as watch and special mention, which require additional provision for credit losses. The provisions for credit losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 include provisions for off-balance sheet loan commitments of $83 thousand and $37 thousand, respectively. The loan loss provision recaptures during the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022 were due to the Company’s capital contribution of $75 million to the Bank in June 2022, which reduced the multi-family and commercial real estate loan concentration levels, and thereby, the risk associated with the qualitative factors used to estimate the required allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) at that time.

The ACL increased to $7.0 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $4.4 million as of December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the implementation of the CECL methodology adopted by the Bank effective January 1, 2023, which increased the ACL by $1.8 million. In addition, the Bank recorded an additional increase in the provision for credit losses of $685 thousand and $773 thousand during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The CECL methodology includes estimates of expected loss rates over the remaining life of loans in the portfolio, whereas the former ALLL methodology did not.

The Bank had no non-accrual loans at June 30, 2023. No loan charge-offs were recorded during the three or six months ended June 30, 2023 or June 30, 2022.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $260 thousand, compared to $261 thousand for the second quarter of 2022.

For the first six months of 2023, non-interest income totaled $549 thousand, compared to $542 thousand for the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $70 thousand in fees from a revenue sharing agreement with another financial institution and an increase in branch services fees of $14 thousand for the first six months of 2023, compared to the first six months of 2022. These increases were partially offset by lower management fees from new market tax credit projects of $76 thousand in the first six months of 2023.

Non-interest Expense

Total non-interest expense was $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 2.5% from $6.3 million for the second quarter of 2022. The increase of $155 thousand was primarily due to higher compensation and benefits expense of $427 thousand and supervisory costs of $101 thousand. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in professional services expense of $351 thousand and a decrease of $22 thousand in various other operating expenses.

For the first six months of 2023, non-interest expense totaled $12.7 million, representing an increase of 4.0% from $12.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase of $447 thousand primarily resulted from increases in compensation and benefits expense of $557 thousand, public relations expense of $60 thousand, trade organization expense of $55 thousand, Delaware franchise taxes of $46 thousand, occupancy expense of $46 thousand, supervisory costs of $38 thousand and various other operating expenses of $37 thousand. These increases were partially offset by decreases in professional services expense of $210 thousand and IT consulting costs of $182 thousand.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% and the combined California and Washington, D.C. income tax rate of 9.75% to taxable income. The Company recorded income tax expense of $93 thousand for the second quarter of 2023 and $757 thousand for the second quarter of 2022. The decrease in tax expense reflected a decrease of $2.3 million in pre-tax income between the two periods. The effective tax rate was 27.43% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 29.00% for the second quarter of 2022.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, income tax expense was $767 thousand, compared to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in tax expense reflected a decrease in pretax earnings of $1.3 million between the two periods. The effective tax rate was 29.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 , compared to 28.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 .

Financial Condition

Total Assets

Total assets increased by $47.1 million at June 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, reflecting growth in loans receivable held for investment of $56.6 million, partially offset by a decrease of securities available-for-sale of $6.2 million and a decrease of cash and cash equivalents of $5.4 million.

Securities Available-For-Sale

Securities available-for-sale totaled $322.5 million at June 30, 2023, compared with $328.7 million at December 31, 2022. The $6.2 million of decrease in securities available-for-sale during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to principal paydowns of $6.8 million, offset by increases in the carrying value of $511 thousand due to the amortization of net discounts and $77 thousand due to improvement in the fair value of the securities.

The table below presents the carrying amount, weighted average yields and contractual maturities of our securities as of June 30, 2023. The table reflects stated final maturities and does not reflect scheduled principal payments or expected payoffs.

Loans Receivable

Loans receivable held for investment, net of the ACL, increased by $56.6 million to $824.6 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $768.0 million at December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to loan originations of $98.2 million during the first six months of 2023, which consisted of $38.6 million of multi-family loans, $36.6 million of construction loans and $23.0 million of other commercial loans, offset in part by loan payoffs and repayments of $41.6 million.

The following tables presents loan categories by maturity for the period indicated. Actual repayments historically have, and will likely in the future, differ significantly from contractual maturities because individual borrowers generally have the right to prepay loans, with or without prepayment penalties.

Certain multi-family loans have adjustable rate features based on SOFR, but are fixed for the first five years. Our experience has shown that these loans typically payoff during the first five years and do not reach the adjustable rate phase. Multi-family loans in their initial fixed period totaled $24.3 million or 2.93% of our loan portfolio as of June 30, 2023.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company accounts for credit losses on loans in accordance with ASC 326 – Financial Instruments-Credit Losses , to determine the ACL. ASC 326 requires the Company to recognize estimates for lifetime losses on loans and off-balance sheet loan commitments at the time of origination or acquisition. The recognition of losses at origination or acquisition represents the Company’s best estimate of the lifetime expected credit loss associated with a loan given the facts and circumstances associated with the particular loan, and involves the use of significant management judgment and estimates, which are subject to change based on management’s on-going assessment of the credit quality of the loan portfolio and changes in economic forecasts used in the model. The Company uses the WARM method when determining estimates for the ACL for each of its portfolio segments. The weighted average remaining life, including the effect of estimated prepayments, is calculated for each loan pool on a quarterly basis. The Company then estimates a loss rate for each pool using both its own historical loss experience and the historical losses of a group of peer institutions during the period from 2004 through the most recent quarter.

Since historical information (such as historical net losses) may not always, by itself, provide a sufficient basis for determining future expected credit losses, the Company periodically considers the need for qualitative adjustments to the ACL.

The Company has a credit portfolio review process designed to detect problem loans. Problem loans are typically those of a substandard or worse internal risk grade, and may consist of loans on nonaccrual status, loans that have recently been modified in response to a borrower’s deteriorating financial condition, loans where the likelihood of foreclosure on underlying collateral has increased, collateral dependent loans, and other loans where concern or doubt over the ultimate collectability of all contractual amounts due has become elevated. Such loans may, in the opinion of management, may be deemed to no longer possess risk characteristics similar to other loans in the loan portfolio, because the specific attributes and risks associated with the loan have likely become unique as the credit quality of the loan deteriorates. As such, these loans may require individual evaluation to determine an appropriate ACL for the loan. When a loan is individually evaluated, the Company typically measures the expected credit loss for the loan based on a discounted cash flow approach, unless the loan has been deemed collateral dependent. The ACL for collateral dependent loans is determined using estimates of the fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated selling costs.

The ACL, formerly known as the allowance for loan losses, was $7.0 million or 0.85% of gross loans held for investment at June 30, 2023, compared to an ALLL of $4.4 million, or 0.57% of gross loans held for investment, at December 31, 2022.

There were no recoveries or charge-offs recorded during either the three or six month period ending June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Collateral dependent loans at June 30, 2023 were $6.8 million, which had an associated ACL of $119 thousand.

There were no delinquent loans greater than 30 days delinquent as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

There were no non-performing loans as of June 30, 2023 compared to $144 thousand as of December 31, 2022. Non-performing loans consist of delinquent loans that are 90 days or more past due and other loans, including loans modified in response to a borrower's financial difficulty, that do not qualify for accrual status.

We believe that the ACL is adequate to cover currently expected losses in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2023, but there can be no assurance that actual losses will not exceed the estimated amounts. The OCC and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) periodically review the ACL as an integral part of their examination process. These agencies may require an increase in the ACL based on their judgments of the information available to them at the time of their examinations.

The following table details our allocation of the ALLL to the various categories of loans held for investment and the percentage of loans in each category to total loans at the dates indicated:

	June 30, 2023 — Amount	Percent of Loans in Each Category to Total Loans	December 31, 2022 — Amount	Percent of Loans in Each Category to Total Loans	June 30, 2022 — Amount	Percent of Loans in Each Category to Total Loans

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The core deposit intangible asset is amortized on an accelerated basis reflecting the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed or otherwise used up. The estimated life of the core deposit intangible is approximately 10 years. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $97 thousand and $108 thousand, respectively, of amortization expense related to the core deposit intangible. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $195 thousand and $217 thousand, respectively, of amortization expense related to the core deposit intangible.

An assessment of goodwill impairment was performed by a third party as of December 31, 2022, in which no impairment was determined. No impairment charges were recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022, for goodwill or the core deposit intangible.

Total Liabilities

Total liabilities increased by $49.2 million to $953.9 million at June 30, 2023 from $904.6 million at December 31, 2022, largely due to an increase in FHLB borrowings which was partially offset by a decrease in deposits.

Table of Contents

Deposits

Deposits decreased by $40.9 million to $646.1 million at June 30, 2023, from $686.9 million at December 31, 2022, with $29.4 million of the decrease occurring in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in deposits was attributable to decreases of $36.7 million in liquid deposits (demand, interest checking and money market accounts), $17.8 million in Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) deposits (ICS deposits are the Bank’s money market deposit accounts in excess of FDIC insured limits whereby the Bank makes reciprocal arrangements for insurance with other banks), $6.4 million in other certificates of deposit accounts and $1.9 million of savings deposits, partially offset by an increase of $22.0 million in Certificate of Deposit Registry Service (“CDARS”) deposits (CDARS deposits are similar to ICS deposits, but involve certificates of deposit, instead of money market accounts). The decrease in deposits was primarily due to customers who left the Bank for higher interest rates available elsewhere. As of June 30, 2023, our uninsured deposits, including deposits from affiliates, represented approximately 38% of our total deposits, as compared to approximately 31% as of December 31, 2022.

The following table presents the maturity of time deposits as of the dates indicated:

	Three Months or Less	Three to Six Months	Six Months to One Year	Over One Year	Total

Time deposits of $250,000 or less	$ 44,630	$ 35,440	$ 29,822	$ 16,023	$ 125,915

Borrowings

Total borrowings increased by $89.8 million to $295.6 million at June 30, 2023, from $205.8 million at December 31, 2022, due to a net increase of $81.9 million in advances from the FHLB of Atlanta and $7.9 million in additional securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding advances from the FHLB totaling $210.3 million and $128.3 million, respectively. The weighted interest rate was 4.74% and 3.74% as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The weighted average contractual maturity was 3 months and 13 months as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The advances were collateralized by loans with a fair value of $446.3 million at June 30, 2023 and $328.1 million at December 31, 2022. The Company is currently approved by the FHLB of Atlanta to borrow up to 25% of total assets to the extent the Company provides qualifying collateral and holds sufficient FHLB stock. Based on collateral pledged and FHLB stock as of June 30, 2023, the Company was eligible to borrow an additional $120.8 million as of June 30, 2023.

The Company enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. Under these arrangements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets. As a result, these repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing agreements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts. In other words, there is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities. These agreements mature on a daily basis. As of June 30, 2023 securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled $71.4 million at an average rate of 3.01%. The market value of securities pledged totaled $86.3 million as of June 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled $63.5 million at an average rate of 0.38%. The market value of securities pledged totaled $64.4 million as of December 31, 2022.

One relationship accounted for 76% of our balance of securities sold under agreements to repurchase as of June 30, 2023. We expect to maintain this relationship for the foreseeable future.

In connection with the New Market Tax Credit activities of the Company, CFC 45 is a partnership whose members include CFNMA and City First New Markets Fund II, LLC. This CDE acts in effect as a pass-through for a Merrill Lynch allocation totaling $14.0 million that needed to be deployed. In December 2015, Merrill Lynch made a $14.0 million non-recourse loan to CFC 45, whereby CFC 45 passed that loan through to a QALICB. The loan to the QALICB is secured by a Leasehold Deed of Trust that, due to the pass-through, non-recourse structure, is operationally and ultimately for the benefit of Merrill Lynch rather than CFC 45. Debt service payments received by CFC 45 from the QALICB are passed through to Merrill Lynch in return for which CFC 45 receives a servicing fee. The financial statements of CFC 45 are consolidated with those of the Company.

Stockholders’ Equity

Stockholders’ equity was $277.3 million, or 22.5%, of the Company’s total assets, at June 30, 2023, compared to $279.5 million, or 23.6% of the Company’s total assets at December 31, 2022. Upon adoption of CECL on January 1, 2023, the Company recognized a net decrease in retained earnings of $1.3 million. S tockholders’ equity also decreased due to an increase in unearned shares in the employee stock ownership plan of $2.8 million. These decreases were offset by year-to-date net earnings of $1.8 million and a reduction of $54 thousand in the accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Book value per share was $1.71 at June 30, 2023 and $1.76 at December 31, 2022.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company completed the exchange of all the Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, with an aggregate liquidation value of $3 million, plus accrued dividends, for 1,193,317 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exchange price of $2.51 per share of Class A Common Stock.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company closed a private placement of shares of the Company’s Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C (“Series C Preferred Stock”), pursuant to a Purchase Agreement with the United States Department of the Treasury (the “Purchaser”) as part of the Emergency Capital Investment Program (“ECIP”), which has provided funding to Minority Depository Institutions and Community Development Financial Institutions to increase access to capital for underserved communities that may have been disproportionately impacted by the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser acquired an aggregate of 150,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price equal to $150.0 million in cash, which is intended to qualify as Tier 1 Capital.

In December of 2022, the Company issued a $5 million line of credit the Employee Stock Ownership Plan to purchase additional shares of Company stock for the Plan. In December of 2022, the ESOP purchased 466,955 shares of the Company’s common stock at an average cost of $1.07 per share for a total cost of $500 thousand and during the first six months of 2023 the ESOP purchased 2,369,086 shares of the Company’s stock at an average cost of $1.18 per share for a total cost of $2.8 million.

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company issued 741,758 shares of restricted stock to its officers and employees based on performance during 2022 under the Amended LTIP and, during the first quarter of 2022, the Company issued 495,262 shares of restricted stock to its officers and employees based on performance during 2021 undet the LTIP. All the shares issued to officers and employees vest over periods ranging from 36 months to 60 months.

During the first quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2022, the Company issued 73,840 and 47,187 shares of stock, respectively to its directors which were fully vested.

Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP measurement that excludes goodwill and the net unamortized core deposit intangible asset, which were both originally recorded in connection with the merger. The Company uses this non-GAAP financial measure to provide supplemental information regarding the Company’s financial condition and operational performance. A reconciliation between book value and tangible book value per common share is shown as follows:

	Common Equity Capital		Per Share Amount
	(Dollars in thousands)
June 30, 2023:
Common book value	$ 127,289	74,237,227	$ 1.71

Liquidity

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that we have the continuing ability to fund operations and meet our obligations on a timely and cost-effective basis. The Bank’s sources of funds include deposits, advances from the FHLB, other borrowings, proceeds from the sale of loans and investment securities, and payments of principal and interest on loans and investment securities. The Bank is currently approved by the FHLB of Atlanta to borrow up to 25% of total assets, or $343.9 million, to the extent the Bank provides qualifying collateral and holds sufficient FHLB stock. Based on FHLB stock held and collateral pledged as of June 30, 2023, the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional $120.8 million from the FHLB of Atlanta. In addition, the Bank had additional lines of credit of $10.0 million with other financial institutions as of June 30, 2023. The Bank had unpledged securities of $241.4 million as of June 30, 2023 which could be used as collateral for borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank under the Bank Term Funding Program.

The Bank’s primary uses of funds include originations of loans, withdrawals of and interest payments on deposits, purchases of investment securities, and the payment of operating expenses. Also, when the Bank has more funds than required for reserve requirements or short-term liquidity needs, the Bank invests in federal funds with the Federal Reserve Bank or in money market accounts with other financial institutions. The Bank’s liquid assets at June 30, 2023 consisted of $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $241.4 million in securities available-for-sale that were not pledged, compared to $16.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and $250.3 million in securities available-for-sale that were not pledged at December 31, 2022. Currently, we believe the Bank has sufficient liquidity to support growth over the next twelve months and in the longer term.

The Bank has a significant concentration of deposits with one customer that accounted for approximately 9% of its deposits as of June 30, 2023. The Bank also has a significant concentration of short-term borrowings from one customer that accounted for 76% of the outstanding balance of securities sold under agreements to repurchase as of June 30, 2023. The Bank expects to maintain its relationships with these customers for the foreseeable future.

The Company’s liquidity, separate from the Bank, is based primarily on the proceeds from financing transactions, such as the private placement completed in June of 2022 and previous private placements. The Bank is currently under no prohibition to pay dividends to the Company, but is subject to restrictions as to the amount of the dividends based on normal regulatory guidelines.

The Company recorded consolidated net cash outflows from investing activities of $53.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to consolidated net cash outflows from investing activities of $91.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Net cash outflows from investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily due to the funding of new loans, net of repayments, of $58.7 million and purchases of FHLB stock of $3.8 million, partially offset by proceeds from principal paydowns on available-for-sale securities of $6.8 million. Net cash outflows from investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 were primarily due to purchases of investment securities of $104.7 million, partially offset by $9.2 million in proceeds from principal paydowns on available-for-sale securities and $3.4 million in net payoffs of loans receivable, net of new loans originated.

The Company recorded consolidated net cash inflows from financing activities of $46.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to consolidated net cash inflows of $140.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Net cash inflows from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily due to proceeds from FHLB advances of $82.0 million along with a net increase in securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $7.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in deposits of $40.9 million. Net cash inflows from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 were primarily attributable to proceeds from the private placement of preferred stock of $150.0 million, a net increase in deposits of $28.1 million and a net increase of $15.3 million in securities sold under agreements to repurchase, partially offset by net of repayments of FHLB advances of $53.0 million.

Capital Resources and Regulatory Capital

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary, actions by the regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s 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. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Bank exceeded all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject and meets the qualifications to be considered “well capitalized.” (See Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Matters.)

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives of ensuring that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures, and is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. There is no assurance that our disclosure controls and procedures will operate effectively under all circumstances. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures was performed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) as of June 30, 2023. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as specified above. Management does not expect, however, that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions, and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
