Security Federal reported a net income of $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease from $2.7 million in the same period last year. The decline was attributed to factors like an increase in the cost of funds and expenses. The company saw decreases in net interest income and an increase in both provision for credit losses and non-interest expense. Despite these challenges, the company experienced growth in total interest income and non-interest income. The bank's credit quality remained stable with a slight decrease in non-performing assets and a consistent allowance for credit losses. Total assets increased year-over-year, while cash and cash equivalents decreased due to repayments. Net loans receivable and total deposits saw positive growth, while investment securities experienced a decrease. The company's financial ratios remained strong, and it operates through various branches in South Carolina and Georgia.
