William Penn recorded core net income⁽¹⁾ of $1.2 million and $4.2 million, or $0.08 and $0.30 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to core net income⁽¹⁾ of $745 thousand and $3.5 million, or $0.05 and $0.24 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

In addition, William Penn announced that its Board of Directors has declared a cash dividend of $0.03 per share, payable on August 11, 2022, to common shareholders of record at the close of business on August 1, 2022.

Kenneth J. Stephon, William Penn's Chairman, President and CEO, stated, "we made good progress during the fourth quarter on our strategic priorities of sound balance sheet management and prudent capital management for the benefit of our shareholders. We continued to improve our asset mix during the quarter, as we used cash to fund $36.3 million of new loans and to purchase $24.9 million of high-quality investment securities, while also using $20.0 million to prepay high-cost advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh. Net interest income improved through these actions, and our net interest margin expanded by 14 basis points sequentially from the prior quarter."

Stephon added, "we are pleased to announce our third quarterly cash dividend since the completion of our second-step conversion and stock offering in March 2021 and we are also pleased with the progress of our share repurchase programs. On March 11, 2022, we announced our first stock repurchase program, which became effective on March 25, 2022, and authorized the purchase of up to 758,528 shares, or 5% of outstanding shares. On June 9, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program to acquire up to 771,445 shares, or 5% of outstanding shares. As of June 30, 2022, we had exhausted our first stock repurchase program and began repurchasing shares under our second program with a total of 766,936 shares purchased under these repurchase programs at a total cost of $9.1 million, or $11.84 per share. We remain focused on organic growth, payment of a sustainable cash dividend, and the opportunistic buyback of our stock to deliver maximum value to our shareholders."

Highlights for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2022 are as follows:

• The Company commenced its previously announced stock repurchase program on March 25, 2022, which authorized the Company to purchase up to 5% of its outstanding stock, or 758,528 shares. On June 9, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program to acquire up to 771,445 shares, or 5% of outstanding shares. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had repurchased 766,936 shares under these repurchase programs at a total cost of $9.1 million, or $11.84 per share.
• William Penn recorded net income of $1.1 million and $4.2 million, or $0.08 and $0.30 per basic and diluted share, and core net income⁽¹⁾ of $1.2 million and $4.2 million, or $0.08 and $0.30 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
• William Penn improved its asset mix and funded $113.3 million of new loans and purchased $207.5 million of high-quality investment securities during the year ended June 30, 2022, including $36.3 million of new loans funded and $24.9 million of investment securities purchased during the fourth quarter.
• William Penn's net interest margin measured 3.20% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to 3.06% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and 2.89% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.
• During the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company made a strategic decision to prepay $41.0 million of high-cost advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Pittsburgh, including $20.0 million during the fourth quarter.
• Core deposits increased $82.5 million, or 21.0%, during the year ended June 30, 2022.
• William Penn's cost of deposits remained low at 30 basis points during the year ended June 30, 2022.
• Asset quality metrics remain strong with non-performing assets to total assets of 0.74% as of June 30, 2022. Our allowance for loan losses totaled $3.4 million, or 0.71% of total loans and 0.94% of total loans, excluding acquired loans⁽²⁾, as of June 30, 2022, compared to $3.6 million, or 0.78% of total loans and 1.19% of total loans, excluding acquired loans⁽²⁾, as of June 30, 2021.
• Book value per share measured $12.91 as of June 30, 2022 compared to $14.30 as of June 30, 2021. Tangible book value per share⁽³⁾ measured $12.54 as of June 30, 2022 compared to $13.92 as of June 30, 2021. The decline in both book value per share and tangible book value per share was primarily due to the payment of a $0.30 per share one-time special cash dividend in August 2021 and two $0.03 per share quarterly cash dividends in February 2022 and May 2022, as well as a $15.3 million increase in the accumulated other comprehensive loss component on available-for-sale securities. These decreases to book value per share and tangible book value per share were partially offset by the repurchase of 766,936 shares at a weighted average cost of $11.84 per share during the year ended June 30, 2022 under the Company's previously announced share repurchase programs.

Statement of Financial Condition

Total assets increased $57.6 million, or 7.0%, to $880.0 million at June 30, 2022, from $822.4 million at June 30, 2021, primarily due to a $53.5 million increase in deposits and a $24.0 million increase in advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh, partially offset by a $24.6 million decrease in total stockholders' equity.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $132.5 million, or 78.6%, to $36.2 million at June 30, 2022, from $168.7 million at June 30, 2021. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily driven by $207.5 million of investment purchases, $113.3 million of new loans funded, the payment of cash dividends totaling $5.3 million, and the repurchase of 766,936 shares at a cost of $9.1 million, partially offset by a $53.5 million increase in deposits, $99.0 million of loan paydowns and payoffs, a $24.0 million increase in advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh and $24.0 million of investment paydowns.

Total investments increased $163.8 million, or 132.8%, to $287.1 million at June 30, 2022, from $123.3 million at June 30, 2021. During the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company deployed excess cash into mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds in the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity investment portfolios. The Company remains focused on maintaining a high-quality investment portfolio that provides a steady stream of cash flows both in the current and in rising interest rate environments.

Net loans increased $14.3 million, or 3.1%, to $475.5 million at June 30, 2022, from $461.2 million at June 30, 2021. During the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company originated $113.3 million of new loans, including $95.7 million of commercial loans, that were partially offset by $99.0 million of loan paydowns and payoffs. The COVID-19 pandemic and interest rate environment have created a highly competitive market for lending. The Company maintains conservative lending practices and is focused on lending to borrowers with high credit quality within its market footprint.

Bank-owned life insurance increased $4.0 million, or 11.2%, to $39.2 million at June 30, 2022, from $35.2 million at June 30, 2021. Management purchased $2.9 million of bank-owned life insurance during the year ended June 30, 2022. Management believes that bank-owned life insurance is a low-risk investment alternative with an attractive yield.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company transferred properties with a total carrying value of $1.6 million to the held for sale classification and recorded a $20 thousand loss on disposition of fixed assets. The Company intends to sell these properties by December 31, 2022.

Deposits increased $53.5 million, or 9.7%, to $606.6 million at June 30, 2022, from $553.1 million at June 30, 2021. The increase in deposits was primarily due to an $82.5 million, or 21.0%, increase in core deposits, partially offset by a $29.0 million decrease in non-core time deposits. The decrease in time deposits was consistent with the planned run-off associated with our re-pricing of higher-cost, non-relationship-based deposit accounts.

Borrowings increased $24.0 million, or 58.5%, to $65.0 million at June 30, 2022, from $41.0 million at June 30, 2021. The increase in borrowings was due to $65.0 million of new short-term advances, partially offset by the strategic prepayment of $41.0 million of high-cost, long-term advances during the year ended June 30, 2022.

Stockholders' equity decreased $24.6 million, or 11.3%, to $192.3 million at June 30, 2022, from $216.9 million at June 30, 2021. The decrease in stockholders' equity was primarily due to a $15.3 million increase in the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of the unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities, the repurchase of 766,936 shares at a cost of $9.1 million, or $11.84 per share, the payment of a $0.30 per share one-time special cash dividend in August 2021 totaling $4.6 million and the payment of two $0.03 quarterly cash dividends in February 2022 and May 2022 totaling $592 thousand, partially offset by $4.2 million of net income recorded during the year ended June 30, 2022. Book value per share measured $12.91 as of June 30, 2022 compared to $14.30 as of June 30, 2021, and tangible book value per share⁽³⁾ measured $12.54 as of June 30, 2022 compared to $13.92 as of June 30, 2021.

Net Interest Income

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, net interest income was $6.2 million, an increase of $821 thousand, or 15.2%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest income on investments and a decrease in interest expense on deposits and borrowings, partially offset by a decrease in interest income on loans. We improved our asset mix by utilizing excess cash to purchase high-quality investments resulting in an increase in the average balance and yield on investments. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we also originated $36.3 million of new loans, including $31.4 million of commercial loans. In addition, we experienced a $231 thousand decrease in interest expense primarily due to the re-pricing of deposits and the prepayment of high-cost, long-term advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we replaced the high-cost, long-term advances with short-term advances. The net interest margin measured 3.20% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to 3.06% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and 2.89% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The increase in the net interest margin during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to the previously mentioned improvement in asset mix and prepayment of high-cost advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. The year-over-year increase in the net interest margin was primarily due to the decrease in the cost of deposit funds and borrowed funds, as well as an increase in our yield on investment securities.

For the year ended June 30, 2022, net interest income was $23.0 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 6.99%, from the year ended June 30, 2021. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest income on investments and a decrease in interest expense on deposits and borrowings, partially offset by a decrease in interest income on loans. As previously discussed, we improved our asset mix by utilizing some of the excess cash we hold to purchase high-quality investments resulting in an increase in interest income on investments. During the year ended June 30, 2022, we originated $113.3 million of new loans, including $89.5 million of commercial loans, that were partially offset by significant payoffs primarily in the residential portfolio. In addition, we experienced a $1.8 million decrease in interest expense primarily due to the re-pricing of deposits and the prepayment of advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. During the year ended June 30, 2022, we replaced high-cost, long-term advances with short-term advances. The net interest margin measured 3.02% for the year ended June 30, 2022 compared to 3.03% for the same period in 2021. The decrease in the net interest margin is consistent with the decrease in interest rates and margin compression during the period that was primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the economy and interest rate environment.

Non-interest Income

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, non-interest income totaled $391 thousand, a decrease of $162 thousand, or 29.3%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $146 thousand unrealized loss on equity securities recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 and an $82 thousand decrease in the net gain on disposition of fixed assets during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. These decreases to non-interest income were partially offset by a $110 thousand increase in earnings on bank-owned life insurance due to the purchase of additional bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI") during the fourth quarter of 2021 and during 2022.

For the year ended June 30, 2022, non-interest income totaled $2.1 million, a decrease of $293 thousand, or 12.4%, from the year ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to a $495 thousand net gain on the disposition of premises recorded during the year ended June 30, 2021 in connection with the sale of several properties acquired as part of the acquisitions of Fidelity Savings Association of Bucks County and Washington Savings Bank in May 2020, a $206 thousand net gain on the sale of other real estate owned recorded during the year ended June 30, 2021 and a $242 thousand unrealized net loss on equity securities recorded during the year ended June 30, 2022. These decreases to non-interest income were partially offset by a $565 thousand increase in earnings on bank-owned life insurance and a $78 thousand increase in service fees consistent with our increase in core deposits.

Non-interest Expense

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, non-interest expense totaled $5.3 million, an increase of $167 thousand, or 3.3%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to a $330 thousand increase in salaries and employee benefits due to annual merit increases and the addition of new employees in connection with the build out of the Company's commercial lending and credit functions and branch expansion, $187 thousand of prepayment penalties associated with the prepayment of $20.0 million of advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh during the quarter ended June 30, 2022. These increases to non-interest expense were partially offset by a $163 thousand decrease in occupancy and equipment expense and a $162 thousand loss on lease abandonment recorded during the year ended June 30, 2021 associated with the closure of our former Frankford branch office effective June 30, 2021 as part of our branch consolidation efforts.

For the year ended June 30, 2022, non-interest expense totaled $20.3 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 6.8%, from the year ended June 30, 2021. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in salaries and employee benefits due to annual merit increases and the addition of new employees in connection with the build out of the Company's commercial lending and credit functions and branch expansion and a $299 thousand increase in prepayment penalties associated with the prepayment of advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. These increases to non-interest expense were partially offset by a $117 thousand gain on lease abandonment recorded during the year ended June 30, 2022 associated with the release from a lease agreement related to the former Frankford branch office that was closed effective June 30, 2021 and a $162 thousand loss on lease abandonment was recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Income Taxes

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a provision for income taxes of $258 thousand, reflecting an effective tax rate of 19.3%, compared to a $158 thousand provision for income taxes, reflecting an effective tax rate of 19.2%, for the same period in 2021. The increase in the provision for income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period a year ago is primarily due an increase in income before income taxes. For the year ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a provision for income taxes of $568 thousand, reflecting an effective tax rate of 11.8%, compared to a $947 thousand provision for income taxes, reflecting an effective tax rate of 20.0%, for the same period in 2021. The decrease in the provision for income taxes for the year ended June 30, 2022 compared to the prior fiscal year is primarily due to a $288 thousand income tax benefit recorded during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 related to refunds received associated with the carryback of net operating losses under the CARES Act. The effective tax rate for the year ended June 30, 2022 compared to the prior fiscal year was also impacted by the previously discussed income tax benefit from refunds received associated with the carryback of net operating losses under the CARES Act.

Asset Quality

The provision for loan losses was a $20 thousand net recovery during the year ended June 30, 2022 compared to an expense of $133 thousand during the year ended June 30, 2021. The provision credit for the year ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to stable asset quality metrics, including continued low levels of net charge-offs and non-performing assets. Our allowance for loan losses totaled $3.4 million, or 0.71% of total loans and 0.94% of total loans, excluding acquired loans⁽²⁾, as of June 30, 2022, compared to $3.6 million, or 0.78% of total loans and 1.19% of total loans, excluding acquired loans⁽²⁾, as of June 30, 2021.

Capital

The Bank's capital position remains strong relative to current regulatory requirements. The Bank continues to have substantial liquidity that has been retained in cash or invested in high quality government-backed securities. As of June 30, 2022, William Penn's stockholders' equity to assets totaled 21.86% and tangible capital to tangible assets⁽⁴⁾ totaled 21.36%. In addition, at June 30, 2022, we had the ability to borrow up to $292.7 million from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. The federal regulators issued a final rule, effective January 1, 2020, that set the elective community bank leverage ratio at 9% of tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets. The Bank has elected to follow this alternative framework. As of June 30, 2022, William Penn Bank had a community bank leverage ratio of 18.28% and is considered well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action framework.
