Lake Shore Bancorp, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Finanznachrichten News

DUNKIRK, N.Y., April 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lake Shore Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: LSBK), the holding company for Lake Shore Savings Bank (the "Bank"), reported unaudited net income of $1.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $1.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024. The Company's financial performance for the first quarter of 2025 was positively impacted by an increase in net interest income along with a decrease in non-interest expenses because of efforts to optimize operating expenses while continuing to reduce its reliance on wholesale Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLBNY") funding by $6.3 million.

"Given the ongoing economic uncertainty, I am pleased with our first quarter 2025 performance," stated Kim C. Liddell, President, CEO, and Director. "We continue to focus efforts on improving the efficiency of our core operations while maintaining a disciplined approach to balance sheet management."

First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights:

  • Net income increased to $1.1 million during the first quarter of 2025, an increase of $43,000, or 4.2%, when compared to the first quarter of 2024. Net income was positively impacted by an increase in net interest income of $332,000, or 6.5%, when compared to the first quarter of 2024;
  • Net interest margin increased to 3.49% during the first quarter of 2025, an increase of 18 basis points when compared to net interest margin of 3.31% during the fourth quarter of 2024 and an increase of 39 basis points when compared to net interest margin of 3.10% during the first quarter of 2024;
  • Reduced reliance on wholesale funding by repaying $6.3 million of FHLBNY borrowings during the first quarter of 2025;
  • At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company's percentage of uninsured deposits to total deposits was 11.8% and 13.5%, respectively;
  • Book value per share increased 0.4% to $15.74 per share at March 31, 2025 as compared to $15.67 per share at December 31, 2024; and
  • The Bank's capital position remains "well capitalized" with a Tier 1 Leverage ratio of 14.31% and a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of 18.67% at March 31, 2025.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2025 increased by $124,000, or 2.3%, to $5.5 million as compared to $5.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 and increased $332,000, or 6.5%, as compared to $5.1 million for the first quarter of 2024. Net interest margin and interest rate spread were 3.49% and 2.94%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2025 as compared to 3.31% and 2.72%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2024 and 3.10% and 2.55%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2024.

Interest income for the first quarter of 2025 was $8.4 million, a decrease of $223,000, or 2.6%, compared to $8.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, and a decrease of $242,000, or 2.8%, compared to $8.6 million for the first quarter of 2024.

The decrease in interest income from the prior quarter was primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $18.0 million, or 2.8%. Interest earned on interest-earning deposits decreased by $265,000, or 53.1%, due to a 63 basis points decrease in average yield and a $19.8 million decrease in the average balance of interest-earning deposits during the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the prior quarter.

The decrease in interest income from the prior year quarter was primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $35.0 million, or 5.3%. The decrease was partially offset by a 14 basis points increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets. During the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, there was a $364,000 decrease in interest earned on interest-earning deposits due to a decrease in the average balance and yield of interest-earning deposits of $20.5 million, or 46.5%, and 146 basis points, respectively. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, there was a $44,000 decrease in interest earned on securities due to a decrease in the average balance and yield of securities of $3.9 million, or 6.4%, and 11 basis points, respectively. These decreases were partially offset by a $166,000 increase in interest income on loans due to a 22 basis points increase in the average yield on loans.

Interest expense for the first quarter of 2025 was $2.9 million, a decrease of $347,000, or 10.7%, from the fourth quarter of 2024, and a decrease of $574,000, or 16.5%, from $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2024.

The decrease in interest expense when compared to the previous quarter was primarily due to a 21 basis points decrease in the average interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities and a $14.1 million, or 2.8%, decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. During the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the previous quarter, interest expense on deposits decreased by $301,000, or 9.6%, due to a $9.7 million decrease in the average balance of deposits and a 20 basis points decrease in the average interest rate paid on deposit accounts. The decrease in the average interest rate paid on deposit accounts was primarily due to the decrease in market interest rates and time deposit repricing. Average interest-bearing deposit balances were $477.8 million, a 2.0% decrease during the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the previous quarter due to a decrease in the average balance of all deposit categories. Interest expense on borrowed funds and other interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $46,000 primarily due to a $4.4 million, or 41.4%, decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds and other interest-bearing liabilities due to the repayment of $6.3 million of our FHLBNY borrowings during the first quarter of 2025.

The decrease in interest expense when compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to a 25 basis points decrease in average interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities and a $39.9 million, or 7.6%, decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. During the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, interest expense on deposits decreased by $402,000, or 12.4%, due to a 24 basis points decrease in the average interest rate paid on deposit accounts and a $16.6 million, or 3.4%, decrease in the average balance of deposits. The decrease in the average interest rate paid on deposit accounts was primarily due to the decrease in market interest rates and time deposit repricing. Average interest-bearing deposit balances decreased 3.4% during the first quarter of 2025 from the first quarter of 2024 due to a decrease in all deposit categories except money market accounts. During the first quarter of 2025, interest expense on borrowed funds and other interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $172,000, or 74.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to a $23.3 million, or 78.9%, decrease in average borrowed funds and other interest-bearing liabilities outstanding due to the repayment of $25.0 million of FHLBNY borrowings during 2024 and $6.3 million during the first quarter of 2025.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income was $724,000 for the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of $344,000, or 32.2%, as compared to $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, and an increase of $17,000, or 2.4%, as compared to $707,000 for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease from the prior quarter was primarily due to a $139,000 decrease in earnings on annuity assets in connection with the purchase of annuities during the fourth quarter of 2024, a $135,000 decrease in earnings on bank-owned life insurance during the first quarter of 2025 as the result of the recognition of a death benefit in the fourth quarter of 2024, and a decrease of $31,000 in service charges and fees. The increase from the prior year quarter was primarily due to a $35,000 increase in unrealized gain on equity securities and a $22,000 increase in earnings on annuity assets in connection with the purchase of annuities during the fourth quarter of 2024.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense was $4.9 million for the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of $397,000, or 7.5%, as compared to $5.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, and a decrease of $117,000, or 2.3%, as compared to $5.0 million for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease from the prior quarter was primarily due to a decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense of $382,000, or 11.6%, along with a decrease in professional services expense of $50,000, or 13.7%. The decrease from the first quarter of 2024 was primarily related to a decrease in FDIC insurance of $207,000, or 74.2%.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $206,000 for the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of $72,000, or 25.9%, as compared to $278,000 for the fourth quarter of 2024, and an increase of $23,000, or 12.6%, as compared to $183,000 for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in income tax expense from the prior quarter was primarily related to the decrease in pre-tax income earned during the current quarter, partially offset by an increase in the effective tax rate during the first quarter of 2025. The increase in income tax expense from the prior year quarter was due to an increase in pre-tax income earned during the current quarter along with an increase in the effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2025. The effective tax rate was 16.3% for the first quarter of 2025 as compared to 15.9% for the fourth quarter of 2024 and 15.3% for the first quarter of 2024.

Credit Quality

The Company's allowance for credit losses on loans was $5.2 million as of March 31, 2025 as compared to $5.1 million as of December 31, 2024. The Company's allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments was $323,000 as of March 31, 2025 as compared to $314,000 as of December 31, 2024. Non-performing assets as a percent of total assets decreased to 0.50% at March 31, 2025 as compared to 0.55% at December 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in non-performing assets of $332,000, or 8.7%. On March 26, 2025, one commercial relationship with two loans representing a total amortized cost of $1.2 million on non-accrual status was sold at foreclosure. Subject to customary foreclosure proceedings, the Bank expects the sale to close during the second quarter of this year. The Company's allowance for credit losses on loans as a percent of loans at amortized cost was 0.93% at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $48,000 for the first quarter of 2025, of which $39,000 related to the loan portfolio and $9,000 related to the reserve for unfunded commitments.

The increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans and unfunded commitments and the corresponding provision for credit losses recognized during the first quarter of 2025 was the result of an increase to the quantitative estimated loss calculation inclusive of forecasted economic trends, primarily related to the mortgage loan pools, including residential mortgages and commercial real estate mortgages.

Balance Sheet Summary

Total assets at March 31, 2025 were $689.0 million, a $3.5 million increase, or 0.5%, as compared to $685.5 million at December 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $2.7 million, or 8.2%, from $33.1 million at December 31, 2024 to $30.4 million at March 31, 2025. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to an increase in loans receivable, net of $7.0 million, or 1.3%, and a decrease in long-term debt due to the repayment of FHLBNY borrowings of $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in total deposits of $9.8 million, or 1.7%. Securities available for sale were $55.8 million at March 31, 2025 as compared to $56.5 million at December 31, 2024 which decrease was primarily due to repayments during the first quarter of 2025. Net loans receivable at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $551.6 million and $544.6 million, respectively. Total deposits at March 31, 2025 were $582.7 million, an increase of $9.8 million, or 1.7%, compared to $573.0 million at December 31, 2024.
