MCMINNVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Security Bancorp, Inc. (“Company”) (OTCBB: “SCYT”), the holding company for Security Federal Savings Bank of McMinnville, Tennessee, today announced its consolidated earnings for the second quarter of its fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $819,000, or $2.24 per share, compared to $744,000, or $2.03 per share, for the same quarter last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company’s net income was $1.6 million or $4.32 per share, compared to $1.3 million, or $3.58 per share, for the same period in 2022.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net interest income increased $320,000, or 14.9%, to $2.5 million from $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net interest income increased $746,000, or 18.2%, to $4.8 million from $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in net interest income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily the result of an increase in loan balances, an increase in interest rates on loans offset by a lesser increase in interest expense. Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.4 million, an increase of $290,000, or 13.7%, from the same period in the previous year. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net interest income after provision for loan losses increased $687,000, or 17.1%, to $4.7 million from $4.0 million for the same period in 2022. The primary reason for the increase during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2023 was an increase in net interest income offset by a slight increase in the provision for loan losses.
Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $411,000 compared to $500,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 also decreased to $823,000 compared to $892,000 for the same period of the prior year. The decrease during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the gains on the sale of loans due to a decrease in the volume of mortgage activities as a result of the rise in interest rates on mortgage loans.
Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $1.7 million, an increase of $92,000, or 5.7% from $1.6 million for the same period of the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, non-interest expense was $3.4 million, an increase of $239,000, or 7.5%, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to an increase in occupancy expenses and data processing expenses.
Consolidated assets of the Company were $314.8 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $301.8 million at December 31, 2022. The $13.1 million, or 4.3%, increase in assets was a result of an increase in interest-bearing deposits with banks and loans receivable. Loans receivable, net, increased $10.0 million, or 4.6%, to $227.5 million at June 30, 2023 from $217.5 million at December 31, 2022. The increase in loans receivable was primarily attributable to a $7.0 million increase in mortgage and construction loans and a $2.1 million increase in commercial loans.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023 the provision for loan losses was $60,000 compared to $30,000 for the same period in 2022. The provision for loan losses was $120,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $61,000 in the comparable period in 2022, an increase of $59,000.
Non-performing assets increased $37,000, or 11.9%, to $347,000 at June 30, 2023 from $310,000 at December 31, 2022. The increase is attributable to an increase in non-performing loans. Based on its analysis of delinquent loans, non-performing loans and classified loans, management believes that the Company’s allowance for loan losses of $2.3 million at June 30, 2023 was adequate to absorb known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio. At June 30, 2023, the allowance for loan losses to non-performing assets was 656.77% compared to 692.90% at December 31, 2022.
Investment and mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale at June 30, 2023 decreased $5.1 million, or 9.5%, to $49.2 million from $54.3 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease was due to investment maturities and paydowns. There were no investment and mortgage-backed securities held-to-maturity at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Deposits increased $11.0 million, or 4.0%, to $282.6 million at June 30, 2023 from $271.6 million at December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in savings account balances and certificates of deposit.
Stockholders’ equity increased $1.8 million or 6.7% to $29.1 million, or 9.2% of total assets at June 30, 2023 compared to $27.2 million, or 9.0%, of total assets, at December 31, 2022.
