Insights

Lake Shore Bancorp achieved modest earnings growth with improved margins while reducing wholesale funding and maintaining strong capital position amid economic uncertainty.

Lake Shore Bancorp's Q1 2025 results demonstrate incremental financial improvement amid ongoing market challenges. The bank reported $1.1 million in net income ($0.19 per diluted share), representing a 4.2% increase compared to Q1 2024's $1.0 million.

The standout metric is the bank's net interest margin expansion to 3.49%, improving 39 basis points year-over-year and 18 basis points sequentially from Q4 2024. This margin improvement is particularly noteworthy considering the bank simultaneously reduced its reliance on wholesale funding, paying down $6.3 million in FHLBNY borrowings during the quarter.

Management has executed effectively on expense control initiatives, with non-interest expenses decreasing 7.5% quarter-over-quarter and 2.3% year-over-year. This disciplined approach to costs helped offset a 2.8% year-over-year decline in interest income, which totaled $8.4 million for the quarter.

Balance sheet trends show modest loan growth of 1.3% during the quarter, with net loans receivable increasing to $551.6 million. Total deposits grew by $9.8 million or 1.7% to $582.7 million, providing sufficient funding for loan growth while reducing higher-cost wholesale borrowings.

Credit quality metrics remain stable with the allowance for credit losses on loans at 0.93% of loans at amortized cost, unchanged from year-end 2024. Non-performing assets improved to 0.50% of total assets from 0.55% at December 31, 2024.

The bank's capital position remains robust with a Tier 1 Leverage ratio of 14.31% and Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of 18.67%, both well above regulatory requirements. Book value per share increased slightly to $15.74 from $15.67 at year-end.

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.

"Given the ongoing economic uncertainty, I am pleased with our first quarter 2025 performance," stated Kim C. Liddell, President, CEO, and Director.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

These decreases were partially offset by an increase in total deposits of $9.8 million, or 1.7%.
