    (1)Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of liabilities to fund those assets. Interest earned includes actual interest earned on segment assets and, if the segment has excess liabilities, interest credits for providing funding to the other segment. The cost of liabilities includes interest expense on segment liabilities and, if the segment does not have enough liabilities to fund its assets, a funding charge based on the cost of assigned liabilities to fund segment assets.
    (2)Provision for credit losses as calculated using the recently adopted Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) method in 2022 and provision for loan losses as calculated using the previous incurred loss method in 2021, includes shifts in allocation between segments due to various changes, adjustments to qualitative factors, changes in loan balances, and charge-off and recovery activity.

Consumer loans increased $40.3 million, primarily due to an increase of $37.0 million in indirect home improvement loans and $3.2 million in marine loans. Commercial business loans decreased $8.2 million, as a result of decreases of $4.1 million in both commercial and industrial lending and warehouse lending.

    Originations of one-to-four-family loans to purchase and to refinance a home for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

The decrease in purchase and refinance activity compared to the prior quarter reflects a limited availability of homes for sale and increased market interest rates.

    Gross margins on home loan sales increased to 3.10% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to 2.94% in the previous quarter and decreased from 3.82% in the same quarter one year ago. Gross margins are defined as the margin on loans sold (cash sales) without the impact of deferred costs.

    (1)Includes $1.2 million, $60.0 million, and $15.0 million of brokered deposits at June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively.
    (2)Includes $78.8 million, $241,000, and $5.0 million of brokered deposits at June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively.
    (3)Includes $180.3 million, $127.6 million, and $194.8 million of brokered deposits at June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively.
    (4)Prior presentation of interest-bearing checking balances was revised due to the misclassification of certain checking products in previous periods. As a result of the misclassification, interest-bearing checking balances of $122.6 million and $102.6 million as of March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively, were reclassified to noninterest-bearing checking for comparative purposes. Balances as of the dates and average values included herein have been updated to reflect the reclassification.

    At June 30, 2022, nonretail CDs, which include brokered CDs, online CDs, and public funds CDs, increased $63.6 million to $207.8 million, compared to $144.2 million at March 31, 2022, due to an increase of $52.7 million in brokered CDs. The year over year decrease in nonretail CDs of $4.1 million from $211.9 million at June 30, 2021, was primarily the result of a $14.5 million decrease in brokered CDs, offset by an increase of $10.4 million in online CDs.   

    At June 30, 2022, borrowings comprised of FHLB advances increased $42.5 million, or 119.6%, to $78.0 million from $35.5 million at March 31, 2022, and increased $35.5 million, or 83.5% from $42.5 million at June 30, 2021.

    Total stockholders’ equity decreased $13.3 million, to $222.6 million at June 30, 2022, from $236.0 million at March 31, 2022, and decreased $19.1 million, from $241.8 million at June 30, 2021. The decrease in stockholders’ equity during the current quarter was primarily due to net unrealized losses in securities available-for-sale of $9.0 million, net of tax, reflecting increases in market interest rates during the quarter, share repurchases totaling $10.6 million, and dividends paid of $2.4 million, partially offset by net income of $6.7 million and unrealized gains on fair value and cash flow hedges of $1.3 million, net of tax. The Company repurchased 361,251 shares of its common stock at an average price of $29.26 per share. Book value per common share was $29.27 at June 30, 2022, compared to $29.70 at March 31, 2022, and $29.49 at June 30, 2021.

    The Bank is well capitalized under the minimum capital requirements established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation at June 30, 2022, with a CBLR of 11.9%, compared to the normally required CBLR of greater than 9.0%. The Company’s Tier 1 leverage-based ratio was 10.1% at June 30, 2022.

    Credit Quality

    The allowance for credit losses on loans (“ACLL”) at June 30, 2022, increased to $25.0 million, or 1.27% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS, compared to $23.4 million, or 1.28% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS at March 31, 2022, and decreased from $27.2 million, or 1.63% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS, at June 30, 2021. The quarter over quarter increase of $1.6 million in the ACLL was primarily due to the increase in loans. The year over year decrease in the ACLL was primarily due to the one-time cumulative-effect adjustment of $2.9 million as of the CECL adoption date of January 1, 2022. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments increased $295,000 to $3.4 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $3.1 million at March 31, 2022, and increased from $479,000 at June 30, 2021. The year over year increase was primarily due to the one-time cumulative-effect adjustment of $2.4 million as of the CECL adoption date and increases in unfunded loan commitments.

    Nonperforming loans decreased $138,000 to $6.7 million at June 30, 2022, from $6.8 million at March 31, 2022, and increased $354,000 from $6.3 million at June 30, 2021. The decrease in nonperforming loans quarter over linked quarter was primarily due to the reduction in nonperforming home equity loans. The year over year increase was primarily due to an increase in nonperforming commercial business loans.

    Loans classified as substandard decreased $2.5 million to $10.6 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $13.1 million at March 31, 2022, and decreased $11.7 million from $22.3 million at June 30, 2021. The quarter over linked quarter decrease in substandard loans was attributable to a decrease of $2.5 million in commercial and industrial loans. The year over year decrease in substandard loans was primarily due to decreases of $6.2 million in one-to-four-family loans and $4.1 million in commercial and industrial loans. There was one other real estate owned (“OREO”) property in the amount of $145,000 at June 30, 2022, and none at March 31, 2022 or June 30, 2021.

    Operating Results

    Net interest income increased $3.5 million, to $24.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $21.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This comparable quarter over quarter increase was primarily the result of an improved mix of loans versus other interest-bearing assets and increased balances in higher yielding loans funded by lower cost deposits.   Interest income increased $3.1 million, primarily due to an increase of $2.8 million in interest income on loans receivable, including fees, impacted primarily by loan growth. Interest expense decreased $361,000, primarily as a result of repricing deposit rates and a reduction in higher cost borrowings. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the total recognition of net deferred fees on forgiven and amortizing PPP loans was $150,000, as compared to $436,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021.  

    For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net interest income increased by $6.1 million, to $47.5 million, from $41.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 for the same reason as for the three-month comparison described above, with an increase in interest income of $5.0 million and a decrease in interest expense of $1.1 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the total recognition of net deferred fees on forgiven and amortizing PPP loans was $415,000 and $1.1 million, respectively.

    NIM increased 30 basis points to 4.39% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from 4.09% for the same period in the prior year and increased 28 basis points to 4.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from 4.04% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in NIM between both the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, reflects new loan originations at higher interest rates, variable loan repricing following recent increases in market interest rates, an improved asset mix of higher yielding assets as low yielding excess cash funded higher yielding loans and investment securities, and lower deposit and borrowing costs.

    The average total cost of funds, including noninterest-bearing checking, decreased 11 basis points to 0.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from 0.54% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was predominantly due to the decline in cost for market rate deposits and borrowings as well as a managed runoff of higher cost CD funding. The average cost of funds decreased 15 basis points to 0.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from 0.56% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, also reflecting decreases in market interest rates over last year. Management remains focused on matching deposit/liability duration with the duration of loans/assets where appropriate.

    For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the provision for credit losses on loans was $1.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively, compared to none and $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as calculated under the prior incurred loss methodology.   The provision for credit losses on loans reflects the increase in total loans receivable partially offset by a reduction in classified loans that were downgraded based on the COVID-19 pandemic and improved economic factors on credit-deterioration used to calculate the ACLL primarily related to the COVID-19 pandemic as compared to the same time last year.

    For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments was $294,000 and $485,000, respectively, compared to $257,000 and $455,000, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The increase was attributable to a change in methodology as a result of the adoption of CECL, as well as increases in total unfunded commitments during the period.

    During the three months ended June 30, 2022, net charge-offs totaled $16,000, compared to $141,000 for the same period last year. The decrease in net charge-offs was primarily due to decreases in the following loan categories: $98,000 in other consumer loans (which includes deposit net charge-offs of $77,000), and $28,000 in indirect home improvement loans.   Net charge-offs totaled $280,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $439,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to net charge-off decreases of $87,000 in indirect home improvement loans, $48,000 in other consumer loans (which includes deposit net charge-offs of $65,000), and $38,000 in commercial business loans.

    Noninterest income decreased $3.8 million, to $4.4 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease during the period primarily reflects a $4.3 million decrease in gain on sale of loans due primarily to a reduction in origination and sales volume of loans HFS and a reduction in gross margins of sold loans, partially offset by a $574,000 increase in service charges and fee income as a result of less amortization of mortgage servicing rights reflecting increased market interest rates and increased servicing fees from non-portfolio loans. Noninterest income decreased $11.0 million, to $10.2 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $21.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily the result of a $12.2 million decrease in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by a $822,000 increase in service charges and fee income.

    Noninterest expense was unchanged at $18.9 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Noninterest expense increased $2.7 million, to $38.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $35.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase as compared to the same period last year was primarily due to a reduction in the recovery of servicing rights to $1,000 from $2.0 million.

As a result of the inclusion, earnings per share was understated for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and the three months ended March 31, 2022. Basic earnings per share for those periods was updated to $1.02, $2.42, and $0.84, respectively, from $1.00, $2.39, and $0.83 as previously reported. Diluted earnings per share was updated to $0.98, $2.35, and $0.83, respectively, from $0.97, $2.32, and $0.81 as previously reported.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

    In addition to financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States (“GAAP”), this earnings release contains tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated by excluding intangible assets from stockholders’ equity. For this financial measure, the Company’s intangible assets are goodwill and core deposit intangible. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding. The Company believes that this non-GAAP measure is consistent with the capital treatment utilized by the investment community, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios and presents this measure to facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's capital over time and in comparison to its competitors.

    This non-GAAP financial measure has inherent limitations, is not required to be uniformly applied, and is not audited. Further, this non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for book value per share or total stockholders' equity determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

    Reconciliation of the GAAP book value per share and non-GAAP tangible book value per share is presented below.
