Insights
TL;DR: Loan and deposit growth lifted net interest income, but a quarterly net loss and sizable unrealized AFS losses weigh on capital metrics.
The company shows clear balance sheet expansion: loans increased to $1.673 billion and deposits to $1.416 billion, which drove loan interest income to $19.8 million and net interest income to $11.64 million, a meaningful sequential and year-over-year improvement. However, the quarter produced a net loss of $1.957 million and six-month loss of $4.649 million, producing negative EPS of $(0.10) for the quarter. Non-interest expense remains elevated at $13.539 million. From an investor perspective, the rising core earnings potential from loan growth is tempered by ongoing losses and $22.4 million of unrealized available-for-sale security markdowns that reduce shareholders' equity to $321.3 million.
TL;DR: Credit metrics stable but interest-rate driven valuation risk in securities and hedging volatility remain notable.
Allowance for credit losses on loans equals $13.304 million, modestly higher versus year-end, with net charge-offs minimal in the period, indicating current credit performance is controlled. Past-due balances and non-accrual loans are disclosed and limited in aggregate relative to total loans. That said, the securities portfolio shows significant unrealized losses ($22.355 million AFS and $2.543 million HTM unrealized losses), attributed to interest rate and liquidity movements rather than credit, and the company holds $426.0 million notional in interest-rate swaps to hedge funding costs. The hedge positions produce unrealized OCI volatility, which has reduced accumulated other comprehensive income and will affect future interest expense reclassification.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Blue Foundry Bancorp (the “Company”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Blue Foundry Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, TrackView LLC and Blue Foundry Investment Company (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Blue Foundry Bancorp owns 100 % of the common stock of Blue Foundry Bank.
Segment Reporting
The Company operates as a single operating segment for financial reporting purposes.
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Certain information and note disclosures usually included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the preparation of the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and with Regulation S-X. The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated statements of income for the periods presented. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Some items in the prior year financial statements may be reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The results of operations and other data presented for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for subsequent periods or the full year results. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed on March 27, 2025.
The accounting policies of the Company conform to U.S. GAAP and to general practice within the financial services industry. A discussion of these policies can be found in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except for the below, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies since December 31, 2024.
Accounting Standards Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“the FASB”) issued ASU 2023-09, Income Tax- Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740), which requires reporting companies to break out their income tax expense and tax rate reconciliation in more detail. For public companies, the requirements will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. This ASU did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-03) (“ASU 2024-03”) Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 Clarifying the Effective Date of ASU 2024-03 (“ASU 2026-01”). ASU 2024-03 requires entities to disclose specified information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to financial statements at each interim and annual reporting period, including the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depletion included in each relevant expense caption. For the employee compensation category, bank holding companies may continue to present compensation expense on the face of the income statement in accordance with Regulation S-X Rule 210.9-04. A qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively are also required to be disclosed. In addition, entities must disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, their definition of selling expenses. ASU 2025-01 clarified the

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
effective date of ASU 2024-03, which is to be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments may be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures; however, the impact is not expected to be material.
As an “emerging growth company” as defined in Title 1 of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (“JOBS”) Act, the Company elected to use the extended transition period to delay the adoption of new or reissued accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements were made applicable to private companies.

Credit Quality Indicators
Credit ratings are a key measure for estimating the probability of a bond’s default and for monitoring credit quality on an on-going basis. For bonds other than U.S. Treasuries and bonds issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies, credit ratings issued by one or more nationally recognized statistical rating organization are considered in conjunction with an assessment by the Company’s management. Investment grade reflects a credit quality of BBB- or above. None of the Company’s securities are on non-accrual status, nor are any past due.
The table below indicates the credit profile of the Company’s debt securities held-to-maturity at amortized cost for the periods shown.

Of the available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2025, 52 were comprised of U.S. Government agency obligations, Treasury notes, and mortgage-backed securities. These securities were all issued by U.S. Government-sponsored entities and agencies, which the government has affirmed its commitment to support. Corporate bonds, obligations issued by U.S. states and their political subdivisions and asset-backed securities in an unrealized loss position all experienced a decline in fair value, which is attributable to changes in interest rates and liquidity, not credit quality. The Company does not intend to sell these securities, nor does it foresee being required to sell them before the anticipated recovery or maturity.

Loans are recorded at amortized cost, which includes principal balance, net deferred fees or costs, premiums and discounts. The Company elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from amortized cost. Accrued interest receivable is reported separately in the consolidated balance sheets and totaled $7.6 million and $6.7 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net fee or cost is recognized in interest income as an adjustment of yield. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, net deferred loan fees totaled $2.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
The portfolio classes in the above table have unique risk characteristics with respect to credit quality:
•Payment on multifamily and commercial real estate mortgages is driven principally by operating results of the managed properties or underlying business and secondarily by the sale or refinance of such properties. Both primary and secondary sources of repayment and the value of the properties in liquidation, may be affected to a greater extent by adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy in general.
•Properties underlying construction loans often do not generate sufficient cash flows to service debt and thus repayment is subject to the ability of the borrower and, if applicable, guarantors, to complete development or construction of the property and carry the project, often for extended periods of time. As a result, the performance of these loans is contingent upon future events whose probability at the time of origination is uncertain.
•Commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loans include C&I revolving lines of credit, term loans, SBA 7a loans and to a lesser extent, Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans. Payments on C&I loans are driven principally by the cash flows of the businesses and secondarily by the sale or refinance of any collateral securing the loans. Both the cash flow and value of the collateral in liquidation may be affected by adverse general economic conditions.
•The ability of borrowers to service debt in the residential and junior liens portfolios is generally subject to personal income which may be impacted by general economic conditions, such as increased unemployment levels. These loans are predominately collateralized by first and second liens on single family properties. If a borrower cannot maintain the loan, the Company’s ability to recover against the collateral in sufficient amount and in a timely manner may be significantly influenced by market, legal and regulatory conditions.
•The consumer loan portfolio primarily includes loans purchased from Bankers Healthcare Group, LLC (“BHG”). BHG originates loans nationwide to licensed or unlicensed or otherwise skilled business professionals and the loans are unsecured and have a reserve deposit account with the Company equal to 3% of the loan balance.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the quality and realizable value of collateral, if any, and the ability of borrowers to service their debts such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans by credit risk. This analysis is performed whenever credit is extended, renewed, or modified, or when an observable event occurs indicating a potential decline in credit quality, and no less than annually for large balance loans. The Company used the following definitions for risk ratings for loan classification:
Pass – Loans classified as pass are loans performing under the original contractual terms, do not currently pose any identified risk and can range from the highest to pass/watch quality, depending on the degree of potential risk.
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 the Company’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard – Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound 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 repayment and liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by a distinct possibility that the Company 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 known facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loss – Assets classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off the asset even though partial recovery may be effected in the future.

Modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may include principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other than insignificant payment delays, term extensions or a combination thereof intended to minimize economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral. If the borrower has demonstrated performance under the previous terms and our underwriting process shows the borrower has the capacity to continue to perform under the restructured terms, the loan will continue to accrue interest.
There were no modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. There were no modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty in the second quarter of 2024.

Allowance for Credit Losses - Off-Balance-Sheet Exposures
The allowance for credit losses on off-balance-sheet exposures is reported in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The liability represents an estimate of expected credit losses arising from off-balance-sheet exposures such as letters of credit, guarantees and unfunded loan commitments. The process for measuring lifetime expected credit losses on these exposures is consistent with that for loans as discussed above, but is subject to an additional estimate reflecting the likelihood that funding will occur. No liability is recognized for off-balance-sheet credit exposures that are unconditionally cancellable by the Company. Adjustments to the liability are reported as a component of provision for credit losses.
At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the balance of the allowance for credit losses for off-balance-sheet exposures was $479 thousand and $157 thousand, respectively. The Company recorded a provision for credit loss on off-balance-sheet exposures of $323 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and a release of provision for credit loss on off-balance-sheet exposures of $49 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit loss on off-balance-sheet exposures of $322 thousand compared to a release of provision for credit loss on off-balance-sheet exposures of $170 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

NOTE 7 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
The Company maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”), a tax-qualified plan designed to invest primarily in the Company’s common stock. The ESOP provides employees with the opportunity to receive a funded retirement benefit from the Bank, based primarily on the value of the Company’s common stock.
The ESOP borrowed funds from the Company to purchase 2,281,800 shares of stock at $10 per share. The loan is secured by the shares purchased, which are held until allocated to participants. Shares are released for allocation to participants as loan payments are made. Loan payments are principally funded by discretionary cash contributions by the Bank, as well as dividends, if any, paid to the ESOP on unallocated shares. When loan payments are made, ESOP shares are allocated to participants at the end of the plan year (December 31) based on relative compensation, subject to federal tax law limits. Participants receive the allocated vested shares at the end of employment. Dividends on allocated shares, if any, increase participants’ accounts.
At June 30, 2025, the principal balance on the ESOP loan was $19.9 million. There were no
At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were 1,916,712 365,088 18.3 million and $18.8 million, respectively, computed using the closing trading price of the Company’s common stock on each date.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, ESOP compensation expense for the shares committed to be released from unallocated was $226 thousand and $203 thousand, respectively. ESOP compensation expense for the shares committed to be released from unallocated for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $444 thousand and $417 thousand, respectively.

Equity Incentive Plan
At the annual meeting held on August 25, 2022, shareholders of the Company approved the Blue Foundry Bancorp 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (“Equity Plan”) which provides for the granting of up to 3,993,150 shares (1,140,900 restricted stock awards and 2,852,250 stock options) of the Company’s common stock.
Restricted shares granted under the Equity Plan generally vest in equal installments, over a service period between five and seven years beginning one year from the date of grant. Additionally, certain restricted shares awarded can be performance vesting awards, which may or may not vest depending upon the attainment of certain corporate financial targets. The vesting of the awards accelerate upon death, disability or an involuntary termination at or following a change in control. The product of the number of shares granted and the grant date closing market price of the Company’s common stock determine the fair value of restricted shares under the Equity Plan. Management recognizes compensation expense for the fair value of time-based restricted shares on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Performance based awards are expensed based on the fair value of the shares and the probability of achieving the performance goals.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company granted to certain employees, under the 2022 Equity Plan, 28,500 270 three-year
There were no performance shares granted during the first and second quarters of 2025.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements.
The Company had interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $426.0 million and $349.0 million at June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, they were designated as cash flow hedges of certain Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances and brokered deposits. They were determined to be highly effective during all periods presented. The Company expects the hedges to remain highly effective during the remaining terms of the swaps.

NOTE 10 – FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
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 other 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.
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:
Securities: For securities available-for-sale and equity securities, fair value was estimated using a market approach. The majority of the Company’s securities are fixed income instruments that are not quoted on an exchange, but are traded in active markets. Prices for these instruments are obtained through third-party data service providers or dealer market participants with which the Company has historically transacted both purchases and sales of securities. Prices obtained from these sources include market quotations and matrix pricing. Matrix pricing, a Level 2 input as defined by ASC 820, is a mathematical technique used principally to value certain securities to benchmark or comparable securities. The Company also holds debt instruments issued by the U.S. government and U.S. government sponsored agencies that are traded in active markets with readily observable quoted market prices that are considered Level 1 inputs.
Derivatives: The fair values of derivatives are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2). The Company’s derivatives are traded in an over-the-counter market where quoted market prices are not always available. Therefore, the fair values of derivatives are determined using quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs. The inputs will vary based on the type of derivative, but could include interest rates, prices and indices to generate continuous yield or pricing curves, prepayment rates and volatility factors to value the position. The majority of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including brokers, market transactions and third-party pricing services.
Impaired loans: The fair value of collateral dependent impaired loans is generally based on 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.
Other real estate owned (OREO): Property acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure is carried at fair value less estimated disposal costs of the acquired property. Fair value of OREO is based on the appraised value of the collateral using discount rates similar to those used in impaired loan valuation.

Other Fair Value Disclosures
Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions for the Company’s financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are set forth below.
Securities held-to-maturity: The Company’s securities held-to-maturity portfolio is carried at amortized cost less allowance for credit losses. The fair values of debt securities held-to-maturity are provided by a third-party pricing service. The pricing service may use quoted market prices of comparable instruments or a variety of other forms of analysis, incorporating inputs that are currently observable in the markets for similar securities. Inputs that are often used in the valuation methodologies include, but are not limited to, benchmark yields, credit spreads, default rates, prepayment speeds and non-binding broker quotes.
Loans, net: Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type, such as residential mortgage and consumer. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms and by performing and non-performing categories. Estimated fair value of loans is determined using a discounted cash flow model that employs an exit discount rate that reflects the current market pricing for loans with similar characteristics and remaining maturity, adjusted for estimated credit losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance sheet date.
Time deposits: The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using rates for currently offered deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Federal Home Loan Bank advances: The fair value of borrowings is based on securities dealers’ estimated fair values, when available, or estimated using discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rates used approximate the rates offered for similar borrowings of similar remaining terms.

NOTE 11 – REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS AND OTHER INCOME
All of the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers in the scope of ASC 606 is recognized within non-interest income in the statements of income.
The following table presents the Company’s sources of revenue from contracts with customers for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively:

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts: The Company earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based account maintenance. Transaction based fees, which include services such as stop payment charges, statement rendering and wire transfer fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation.
Interchange Income: The Company earns interchange fees from ATM and debit cardholder transactions conducted through a payment network. Interchange fees from debit cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder. In addition, the Company earns interchange fees from credit cardholder transactions through its partnership with a third party.
NOTE 12 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) represents income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares (such as unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock) were exercised or converted into additional common shares that would then share in the earnings of the entity. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, plus the effect of potential dilutive common share equivalents.
Shares held by the ESOP that have not been allocated to employees in accordance with the terms of the ESOP, referred to as “unallocated ESOP shares,” are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations.

Due to the Company’s net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock awards had an antidilutive effect on diluted earnings per share.
NOTE 13 - SEGMENT REPORTING
We conduct our operations through a single business segment. Substantially all of our interest and fees on loans and long-lived assets relate to our operations. Pursuant to FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments represent components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker in determining how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The chief operating decision maker uses a variety of measures to assess the performance of the business as a whole, depending on the nature of the activity. The Company generates revenue from several business channels. Those streams are organized by the types of partners we work with to reach our customers, with success principally measured based on interest and fees on loans, loan receivables, active accounts and other sales metrics. Detailed profitability information of the nature that could be used to allocate resources and assess the performance and operations for each sales platform individually, however, is not used by our chief operating decision maker. Expense activities, including funding costs, credit losses and operating expenses, are not measured for each platform but instead are managed for the Company as a whole.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This section is intended to assist in the understanding of the financial performance of the Company and its subsidiary through a discussion of our financial condition as of June 30, 2025, and our results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. This section should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which are based on certain current assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, can generally be identified by the use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “plan,” “potential,” “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “target” and similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations of management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements: changes in the interest rate environment that may reduce our margins and yields, the fair value of financial instruments or our level of loan originations, or increase the level of defaults, losses and prepayments on loans we have made and make; adverse changes in the securities or secondary mortgage markets; changes in monetary or fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board; general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas, that are worse than expected, including potential recessionary conditions, the imposition of tariffs or other domestic or international governmental policies and retaliatory responses; changes in the amount and trend of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in estimates and the methodology for calculating the allowance for credit losses; our ability to access cost-effective funding; fluctuations in real estate values and both residential and commercial real estate market conditions; demand for loans and deposits in our market area; our ability to implement and change our business strategies; competition among depository and other financial institutions; changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees, capital requirements and insurance premiums; changes in the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios; technological changes that may be more difficult or expensive than expected; a failure or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, including cyber-attacks; the inability of third-party providers to perform as expected; our ability to manage market risk, credit risk and operational risk in the current economic environment; our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities; our ability to successfully integrate into our operations any assets, liabilities, customers, systems and management personnel we may acquire and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames and any goodwill charges related there to; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the bank regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC or the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; our ability to retain key employees; the current or anticipated impact of military conflict, terrorism or other geopolitical events; the ability of the U.S. Government to manage federal debt limits; and changes in the financial condition, results of operations or future prospects of issuers of securities that we own.
Because of these and other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, we do not undertake, and we specifically disclaim any obligation, to release publicly the results of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
General. The Company recorded a net loss of $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a net loss of $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Interest Income. Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $23.4 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 10.1%, from $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, largely driven by the increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets and the increase in rates earned on interest-earning assets. The yield on average interest-earning assets increased 21 basis points to 4.58% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from 4.37% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Interest Expense. Interest expense was $11.8 million and $11.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $79 thousand driven by a $111.6 million increase average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. This was primarily offset by an 18 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 2.76% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from 2.94% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $2.1 million to $11.6 million for the second quarter of 2025 from $9.6 million for the second quarter of 2024. Net interest rate spread increased 39 basis points to 1.82% and net interest margin increased 32 basis points to 2.28%.
Provision for Credit Losses. The Company recorded a $463 thousand provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2025, compared to a $762 thousand release of provision for credit losses for the same period of 2024. The provision included an increase in the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans and off-balance-sheet commitments of $147 thousand and $323 thousand, respectively and a release of provision of $7 thousand on HTM securities. The provision was primarily driven by the increase in unfunded loan commitments and the shift in the composition of the loan portfolio. As of June 30, 2025, the ACL on loans as a percentage of total loans was 0.80%.
Non-interest Income. Non-interest income totaled $405 thousand and $536 thousand for the second quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively, a decrease of $131 thousand when comparing the two periods. The second quarter of 2024 included the gain of $123 thousand on the sale of REO property that did not occur in the 2025 quarter.
Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense was $13.5 million for the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $324 thousand driven by increases of $185 thousand and $133 thousand in compensation and benefits expenses and data processing, respectively. Compensation and benefits expense increased primarily due to increases in variable compensation accruals and data processing reflects increased costs. In addition, advertising expense increased $88 thousand from the second quarter of 2024 to the 2025 period due to increased marketing efforts.
Income Tax Expense. The Company did not record a tax benefit for the loss incurred during the current or previous year quarter due to the full valuation allowance required on its deferred tax assets. The Company’s current tax position reflects the previously established full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. At June 30, 2025, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets was $25.6 million.
On July 4, 2025, subsequent to the end of the Company’s second quarter, the “One Big Beautiful Bill” (“OBBB”) was enacted into law. The legislation includes a number of significant tax-related provisions, including changes affecting corporate tax incentives, international tax provisions, and various business credits and deductions. Pursuant to ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company will recognize the effects of the OBBB in the third quarter of 2025, the period in which the legislation was enacted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the OBBB on its financial statements and, based on its preliminary assessment, does not currently expect the legislation to have a material impact.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
General. The Company recorded a net loss of $4.6 million and $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Interest Income. Interest income totaled $46.2 million and $42.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. This represents an increase of $4.0 million, or 9.5%, driven primarily by increases in average loan balances and rates earned on most categories of interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets increased $64.2 million from the prior year period to $2.03 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The yield on average interest-earning assets increased 25 basis points to 4.55% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, from 4.30% for the same period in 2024.
Interest Expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, interest expense totaled $23.8 million and $23.1 million, respectively, an increase of $623 thousand, or 2.7%, due primarily to increases in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $91.0 million when compared to the 2024 period. This was partially offset by the seven basis point decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities to 2.82% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from 2.89% for the same period in 2024.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $3.4 million to $22.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $19.0 million for the year-to-date period in 2024. Net interest rate spread was 1.72% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 1.41%, an increase of 31 basis points. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the net interest margin was 2.22% and 1.94%, respectively, an increase of 28 basis points.
Provision for Credit Losses. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses totaling $664 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and a release of provision for credit losses totaling $1.3 million for the same period in 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the provision on loans and off-balance-sheet exposures totaled $350 thousand and $322 thousand, respectively, while an $8 thousand release of provision was recorded on securities. The increase in the provision for credit losses on loans was primarily driven by an increase in loan balances and the increase in the provision on off-balance-sheet exposures for the 2025 period was due to an increase in commitments as well as unused lines.
Non-interest Income. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, non-interest income was $799 thousand and $987 thousand, respectively. The decrease of $188 thousand was due, in part, to a gain on sale of REO property of $123 thousand recorded in the second quarter of 2024 that did not occur in the 2025 period.
Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense totaled $27.2 million and $26.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $711 thousand. The increase was primarily driven by increases of $474 thousand in compensation and benefits expense due to the reset of variable compensation accruals and $233 thousand in data processing expense.
Income Tax Expense. The Company did not record a tax benefit for the loss incurred during the first six months of the current or previous year due to the full valuation allowance required on its deferred tax assets. The Company’s current tax position reflects the previously established full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. At June 30, 2025, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets was $25.6 million.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024
Total Assets. Total assets were $2.13 billion and $2.06 billion at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $625 thousand, or 1.5%, to $41.9 million at June 30, 2025 from $42.5 million at December 31, 2024.
Securities available-for-sale. Securities available-for-sale decreased $12.8 million, or 4.3%, to $284.2 million at June 30, 2025 from $297.0 million at December 31, 2024, due to maturities, calls and pay downs partially offset by purchases and a $5.8 million improvement in the unrealized loss position.
Securities held-to-maturity. Held-to-maturity securities decreased $4.0 million or 12.1% to $29.1 million at June 30, 2025 from $33.1 million at December 31, 2024, due to calls in the portfolio.
Gross Loans. Gross loans held for investment increased by $89.6 million to $1.67 billion at June 30, 2025, from $1.56 billion at December 31, 2024. Consumer, commercial real estate and construction loans increased $76.5 million, $33.5 million, and $11.7 million, respectively. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in multifamily loans of $37.3 million. During the first half of 2025, the Company purchased residential loans totaling $25.5 million. In addition, the Bank purchased consumer loans totaling $80.4 million from BHG. These loans have a reserve deposit account with the Company equal to 3% of the loan balance.

Total Deposits. Total deposits were $1.42 billion at June 30, 2025, an increase of $73.0 million, or 5.4%, from December 31, 2024. This was largely the result of increases of $61.9 million and $23.4 million in NOW and demand accounts and certificate of deposits, respectively. Core deposits (defined as non-interest bearing checking, NOW and demand accounts and savings accounts) increased by $49.6 million since December 31, 2024 and represented 48.4% of total deposits at June 30, 2025, compared to 47.3% at December 31, 2024. Brokered deposits totaled $225.0 million and $155.0 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The increase in brokered deposits replaced the reduction in retail time deposits and funded loan originations. At June 30, 2025, total uninsured and uncollateralized deposits to third-party customers totaled $168.6 million.

Borrowings. The Company had $343.0 million and $339.5 million of borrowings at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, an increase of $3.5 million, or 1.0%. Borrowings consist solely of Federal Home Loan Bank of New York advances.
Total Shareholders’ Equity. Total shareholders’ equity decreased by $10.9 million, or 3.3%, to $321.3 million at June 30, 2025 compared to $332.2 million at December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the repurchase of shares, including shares netted for income tax withholding on vested equity awards, at a cost of $8.5 million. Additionally, the year-to-date loss, partially offset by favorable changes in accumulated other comprehensive income and unallocated ESOP, contributed to the decrease in shareholders’ equity.
Derivatives. To help manage our interest rate position, the Company had $426.0 million in interest rate hedges at June 30, 2025, with a weighted average duration of 2.1 years. This represents an increase of $77.0 million from December 31, 2024, when interest rate hedges totaled $349.0 million with a weighted average duration of 2.4 years. See Note 8, Derivatives and Hedging Activities, of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in “Item 1- Financial Statements.”
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Qualitative Analysis. Our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk because, as a financial institution, the majority of our assets and liabilities are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Therefore, a principal part of our operations is to manage interest rate risk and limit the exposure of our balance sheet and results of operations to changes in market interest rates. Our ALCO/Investment Committee, which consists of members of management, is responsible for evaluating the interest rate risk inherent in our assets and liabilities, for determining the level of risk that is appropriate, given our business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with the policy and guidelines approved by our board of directors. We currently utilize a modeling program, on a quarterly basis, to evaluate our sensitivity to changing interest rates, given our business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with the guidelines approved by the board of directors.
We have sought to manage our interest rate risk in order to minimize the exposure of our earnings and capital to changes in interest rates. We have implemented the following strategies to manage our interest rate risk: growing target deposit accounts, such as small business accounts; utilizing our investment securities portfolio and interest rate swaps as part of our balance sheet asset and liability and interest rate risk management strategy to reduce the impact of movements in interest rates on net interest income and economic value of equity, which can create temporary valuation adjustments to equity in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income; continuing the diversification of our loan portfolio by adding more commercial and consumer loans, which typically have shorter maturities and/or balloon payments.
By following these strategies, we believe that we are positioned to react to increases and decreases in market interest rates.
Other than cash flow hedging on interest expense, we generally do not engage in hedging activities such as engaging in futures or options, or investing in high-risk mortgage derivatives such as collateralized mortgage obligation residual interests, real estate mortgage investment conduit residual interests or stripped mortgage-backed securities.
46
The Company has entered into derivative financial instruments to reduce risk associated with interest rate volatility by matching asset maturities and liability maturities. These derivatives had an aggregate notional amount of $426 million as of June 30, 2025.
Quantitative Analysis. We compute amounts by which the net present value of our cash flow from assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet items would change in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. The economic value of equity (“EVE”) analysis estimates the change in the net present value (“NPV”) of assets and liabilities and off-balance-sheet contracts over a range of immediate rate shock interest rate scenarios. This model uses a discounted cash flow analysis and an option-based pricing approach to measure the interest rate sensitivity of net portfolio value. The model estimates the economic value of each type of asset, liability and off-balance-sheet contract under the assumption that the United States Treasury yield curve increases or decreases instantaneously by 100 to 200 basis points in 100 basis point increments. A basis point equals one-hundredth of one percent, and 100 basis points equals one percent. An increase in interest rates from 3% to 4% would mean, for example, a 100-basis point increase in the “Basis Point Change in Interest Rates” column below.
The following table sets forth, at June 30, 2025, the calculation of the estimated changes to the Bank’s net interest income, at the Bank level, that would result from the specified immediate changes in the United States Treasury yield curve. For purposes of this table, 100 basis points equals 1%.

The following table sets forth, at June 30, 2025, the calculation of the estimated changes in our net portfolio value, at the Bank level, that would result from the specified immediate changes in the United States Treasury yield curve. For purposes of this table, 100 basis points equals 1%.

The tables above indicates that at June 30, 2025, in the event of an instantaneous 100 basis point increase in interest rates, we would experience a 15.4% decrease in EVE. In the event of an instantaneous 100 basis point decrease in interest rates, we would experience a 14.8% increase in EVE.

Certain short comings are inherent in the methodologies used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The above tables assume that the composition of our interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the date indicated remains constant uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the table provides an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, the data does not reflect any actions we may take in response to changes in interest rates. In addition, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our NPV and will differ from actual results.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term and long-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, maturity of securities, wholesale funding such as borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York and brokered deposits and, to a lesser extent, proceeds from the sale of securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, calls of investment securities and borrowed funds and prepayments on loans are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
Management regularly adjusts our investments in liquid assets based upon an assessment of (1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and (4) the objectives of our interest-rate risk and investment policies.
At June 30, 2025, we had $45.7 million in commitments to originate loans and unused lines of credit totaled $103.9 million. We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds available to meet our current loan origination and lines of credit commitments. Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature in less than one year from June 30, 2025 totaled $721.0 million, including $225.0 million of brokered time deposits. Management expects, based on historical experience, that a deposit relationship will be retained with a substantial portion of certificate holders. However, if a substantial portion of these deposits is not retained, we may borrow against our available borrowing capacity or raise interest rates on deposits to attract new accounts, which may result in higher levels of interest expense. Available borrowing capacity at June 30, 2025 was $256.1 million with Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, a $110.3 million line of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and a $30.0 million unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank. Total available borrowing capacity is 2.4x times total uninsured and uncollateralized deposits to third-party customers. The estimated fair market value of unencumbered securities totaled $188.5 million or 60.7% of the portfolio at June 30, 2025.
We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to originate loans, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit, which involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. Our exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments that we do for on-balance sheet instruments. Management believes that our current sources of liquidity are more than sufficient to fulfill our obligations as of June 30, 2025 pursuant to off-balance-sheet arrangements and contractual obligations.
