For the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the Company reported net loss of $719,000, or $(0.62) basic and diluted earnings per share. Net income was $118,000 or $.10 basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Second quarter 2021 resulted in a net loss due to extraordinary expenses incurred related to the August 19, 2020 announced sale of Our Community Bank to Crane Credit Union. Specifically, for the quarter-ended December 31, 2020, the Bank made a one-time payment of $1.1 million to withdrawal from a defined employee benefit plan and transfer the plan to an insurance company to provide annuity contracts for individual plan participants. Excluding the effects of the pension plan withdrawal expense and professional fees, net income was $107,000 or $0.09 basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.
Net interest income decreased $36,000 or 5% and totaled $642,000. Total interest income fell $101,000 or 12%, while interest expense decreased $65,000 or 36%. Net interest margin for the quarter was 3.84%, compared to 3.96% for the same period a year earlier.
Loan loss provisions were $10,000 and $15,000 for the quarters-ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. A regular assessment of loan loss allowance adequacy indicated that these provisions were necessary to maintain an appropriate allowance level. Changes in volume, composition and quality of the loan portfolio, as well as actual loan loss experience, influences the need for future loan loss provisions.
Total non-interest income increased $13,000 or 9%, to $153,000 for the quarter. Total non-interest expense for second quarter 2021 increased substantially due to a withdrawal payment of $1.1 million during the quarter to transfer a defined benefit plan obligation from the Bank to individual annuity contracts provided by a selected insurance company. Consequently, non-interest expense increased $1.1 million, to $1.8 million, compared to $673,000 for second quarter 2020. Income tax benefit totaled $270,000, compared to income tax expense of $12,000 for the same quarter a year earlier.
For the six-month period ended December 31, 2020, the Company reported net loss of $746,000, or $(0.65) basic and diluted earnings per share. Net income was $215,000, or $.19 basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended December 31, 2019. As mentioned above, the Bank made a one-time payment of $1.1 million during the December 2020 quarter to withdrawal from a defined employee benefit plan and transfer the plan to an insurance company to provide annuity contracts for individual plan participants. This extraordinary expense, required as part of the announced sale of the Bank, resulted in a substantial decrease in earnings for the six months ending December 31, 2020, compared to the same period a year earlier. Excluding the effects of the pension plan withdrawal expense and professional fees, net income was $175,000 or $0.15 basic and diluted earnings per share for the six-month period ended December 31, 2020.
Net interest income decreased $59,000, or 4%, to $1.3 million for the six-month period ending December 31, 2020. Total interest income decreased $179,000 or 11%. Total interest expense decreased $120,000 or 33%.
Loan loss provisions were $25,000 for the six-months ended December 31, 2020 and $30,000 for the same six-month period a year earlier. Loan loss provisions reflect management’s assessment of various risk factors including, but not limited to, the level and trend of loan delinquencies and losses.
Non-interest income increased $21,000, or 8%, to $307000 for the first half of fiscal 2021, compared to $285,000 for the year-earlier period. This change resulted from gain on sale of securities totaling $45,000 for the six-months ended December 31, 2020, compared to a $4,000 gain on sale of securities for the same period a year earlier. Limiting the overall increase in non-interest income, income from service charges on deposit accounts decreased $27,000 compared to the same period in fiscal 2020.
Non-interest expense increased $1.2 million or 91%. This increase was the result of a withdrawal payment of $1.1 million during the December 2020 quarter to transfer a defined benefit plan obligation from the Bank to individual annuity contracts provided by a selected insurance company. Contributing to the overall increase in non-interest expense, legal and professional fees increased to $327,000, compared to $151,000 for the same period last year. Of this increase, $178,000 was for legal and consulting services specifically tied to a definitive purchase and assumption agreement by and between the Bank and Crane that was announced on August 19, 2020.
At December 31, 2020, total assets were $70.6 million, compared to $73.9 million at June 30, 2020. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $4.5 million or 46% to $5.4 million. Investments available for sale declined 21% to $7.2 million. Total loans decreased $1.4 million or 3%, to $50.9 million.

Non-performing assets included $14,000 in Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”) and repossessed properties at both December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020.
Loan loss allowances were $535,000 or 1.05% of total loans at December 31, 2020, compared to $522,000 or 1.00% of total loans at June 30, 2020.
