GOUVERNEUR, N.Y., Jan. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gouverneur Bancorp, Inc. (OTCQB: GOVB) (the “Company”), the holding company for Gouverneur Savings and Loan Association (the “Bank”), today announced the Company’s results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 ended December 31, 2024.

The Company reported net income of $160,000, or $0.15 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, compared to net income of $118,000, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Summary of Financial Results

Our results of operations depend primarily on our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets, consisting primarily of loans and securities, and the interest we pay on our interest-bearing liabilities, consisting of savings and club accounts, NOW and money market accounts and time certificates. Our results of operations also are affected by our provisions for credit losses, non-interest income and non-interest expense. Non-interest income currently consists primarily of service charges, earnings on bank owned life insurance and loan servicing fees. Non-interest expense currently consists primarily of salaries and employee benefits, directors’ fees, occupancy and data processing expense and professional fees. Our results of operations also may be affected significantly by general and local economic and competitive conditions, changes in market interest rates, governmental policies and actions of regulatory authorities.

Total assets decreased by $0.5 million or 0.25%, from $197.3 million at September 30, 2024 to $196.8 million at December 31, 2024. Securities available for sale decreased $1.8 million, or 4.00%, from $45.3 million as of September 30, 2024 to $43.5 million as of December 31, 2024 as the Bank received principal paydowns and maturities along with a decrease in the market value as market rates fluctuate. Net loans increased by $0.7 million or 0.54%, from September 30, 2024 to December 31, 2024. The Bank made a $15,000 provision for credit loss during the first quarter of fiscal 2025, a decrease from the $70,000 provision made in the same period of fiscal 2024.

Deposits decreased $0.2 million or 0.14%, to $159.7 million at December 31, 2024 from $159.9 million at September 30, 2024 due to seasonal fluctuations. The Bank currently holds no Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances or brokered deposits.

Shareholders’ equity was $31.7 million at December 31, 2024, representing a decrease of 3.12% from the September 30, 2024 balance of $32.8 million. The decrease in shareholders’ equity was primarily a result of a $1.1 million decrease to the market value of the securities portfolio included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company declared dividends of $0.08 per share totaling $89,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2024. The Company’s book value was $28.68 per common share based on 1,107,134 shares issued and 1,106,790 shares outstanding at December 31, 2024. The Company’s book value was $29.59 per common share based on 1,107,134 shares issued and outstanding at September 30, 2024.

Total interest income increased $38,000, or 1.79%, from $2.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 to $2.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. Interest income on loans increased $91,000, or 5.68%, from $1.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 to $1.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 due to an increase in market rates resulting in higher interest rates on loan originations and repricing.

Total interest expense increased $77,000, or 23.77%, from $324,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 to $401,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. Interest expense on deposits increased $158,000, from $243,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 to $401,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. Interest expense on FHLB borrowings decreased $131,000 as the Bank currently holds no FHLB advances.

Net interest spread, the difference between the rate earned on interest-earning assets and the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, was 3.78% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 and 3.84% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 as interest rates on interest bearing deposits increased faster than the interest rates on loans during fiscal 2024.

Non-interest income increased $97,000, from $147,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 to $244,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. This includes the unrealized market value loss on swap agreements held with FHLBNY of $9,000 and $143,000 for the quarters ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Other non-interest income increased $52,000 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the recognition of additional income from a tax-related refund.
