NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Presentation of Interim Information

Mid-Southern Bancorp, Inc., (the “Company”) was incorporated in January 2018 and became the holding company for Mid-Southern Savings Bank, FSB (the “Bank”), on July 11, 2018, upon the completion of the Bank’s conversion from the mutual holding company ownership structure and the Company’s related public stock offering. Please see Note 2 – Conversion and Stock Issuance for more information. Accordingly, the reported results and financial information for periods ending prior to September 30, 2018 relate solely to the Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mid-Southern Investments, Inc.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 22, 2019 (“2018 Form 10-K”).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. All of these adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Such adjustments are the only adjustments included in the unaudited consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any other period.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity. In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of foreclosed real estate and the underlying collateral of impaired loans, deferred tax assets, and the fair value of financial instruments.

2. Conversion and Stock Issuance

The Company, an Indiana corporation, was organized by Mid-Southern, M.H.C. (“the MHC”) and the Bank in connection with the MHC's plan of conversion from mutual to stock form of ownership (the “Conversion”). Upon consummation of the Conversion, which occurred on July 11, 2018, the Company became the holding company for the Bank and now owns all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Bank’s common stock.

In connection with the Conversion, the Company sold a total of 2,559,871 shares of common stock in an offering to certain depositors of the Bank and others, including 204,789 shares purchased by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) funded by a loan from the Company (see Note 6). All shares were sold at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. Costs to complete the stock offering were deducted from the gross proceeds of the offering.

-8-

MID-SOUTHERN BANCORP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Proceeds from the offering, net of $1.2 million in expenses, totaled $24.4 million. The Company used $2.0 million of the net proceeds to fund the ESOP and made a $10.2 million capital contribution to the Bank. In addition, concurrent with the offering, shares of Bank common stock owned by public stockholders were exchanged for 2.3462 shares of the Company’s common stock, with cash being paid in lieu of issuing any fractional shares. As a result of the offering, exchange and cash in lieu of fractional shares, the Company issued 3,565,430 shares.

The Company has established a liquidation account in an amount equal to the MHC's ownership interest in the stockholders' equity of the Bank as reflected in the latest consolidated balance sheet contained in the final prospectus plus the value of the net assets of the MHC as reflected in the latest balance sheet of the MHC prior to the effective date of the conversion (excluding its ownership of Bank common stock). The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders who maintain deposit accounts with the Bank after conversion.

The conversion was accounted for as a change in corporate form with the historic basis of the Bank's assets, liabilities and equity unchanged as a result.

3. Investment Securities

Investment securities have been classified in the consolidated balance sheets according to management’s intent. Debt securities held by the Company include mortgage-backed securities and other debt securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a U.S. government agency, and mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), which are government-sponsored enterprises. Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) represent participating interests in pools of long-term first mortgage loans originated and serviced by the issuers of the securities. Collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMO”) are complex mortgage-backed securities that restructure the cash flows and risks of the underlying mortgage collateral. The Company also holds debt securities issued by municipalities and political subdivisions of state and local governments.

Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recover in fair value.

At September 30, 2019, the debt securities in the available for sale classification in a loss position had depreciated approximately 0.70% from the amortized cost basis. All of the debt securities in a loss position at September 30, 2019 were backed by residential first mortgage loans or were obligations issued by federal or local government-sponsored enterprises. These unrealized losses relate principally to current interest rates for similar types of securities. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition for purposes of evaluating whether declines in value are other-than-temporary, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government, its agencies or sponsored enterprises or local governments, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. As the Company has the ability to hold the debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future if classified as available for sale, no declines are deemed to be other-than-temporary.

While management does not anticipate any credit-related impairment losses at September 30, 2019, additional deterioration in market and economic conditions may have an adverse impact on credit quality in the future.

There were no securities sales during the three month period ended September 30, 2019. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2019, the Company realized a gross gain of $7,000 on the sale of an available for sale municipal security. There were no securities sales during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018.

4. Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company’s loan and allowance for loan loss policies are as follows:

Loans Held for Investment. Loans are stated at unpaid principal balances, less net deferred loan fees and the allowance for loan losses. The Company grants real estate mortgages, commercial business and consumer loans. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans to customers in southern Indiana. The ability of the Company’s customers to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in this area.

Loan origination and commitment fees, as well as certain direct costs of underwriting and closing loans, are deferred and amortized as a yield adjustment to interest income over the lives of the related loans using the interest method. Amortization of net deferred loan fees is discontinued when a loan is placed on nonaccrual status.

Nonaccrual Loans. The recognition of income on a loan is discontinued and previously accrued interest is reversed when interest or principal payments become 90 days past due unless, in the opinion of management, the outstanding interest remains collectible. Past due status is determined based on contractual terms. Generally, by applying the cash receipts method, interest income is subsequently recognized only as received until the loan is returned to accrual status. The cash receipts method is used when the likelihood of further loss on the loan is remote. Otherwise, the Company applies the cost recovery method and applies all payments as a reduction of the unpaid principal balance until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. Interest income on impaired loans is recognized using the cost recovery method, unless the likelihood of further loss on the loan is remote.

A loan is restored to accrual status when all principal and interest payments are brought current and the borrower has demonstrated the ability to make future payments of principal and interest as scheduled, which generally requires that the borrower demonstrate a period of performance of at least six consecutive months.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Additions to the allowance for loan losses are made by the provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The Company uses a disciplined process and methodology to evaluate the allowance for loan losses on at least a quarterly basis that is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually evaluated for impairment or loans otherwise classified as doubtful or substandard. For such loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows or collateral value of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan.

The general component covers non-classified loans and classified loans that are found, upon individual evaluation, to not be impaired. Such loans are pooled by portfolio segment and losses are modeled using annualized historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on the Company’s actual loss history over the most recent twenty calendar quarters unless the historical loss experience is not considered indicative of the level of risk in the remaining balance of a particular portfolio segment, in which case an adjustment is determined by management. The Company’s historical loss experience is then adjusted for qualitative factors that are reviewed on a quarterly basis.

Management’s determination of the allowance for loan losses considers changes and trends in the following qualitative loss factors: lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collection, charge-off and recovery practices and management experience, national and local economic conditions, new loan trends, past due and nonaccrual loans, loan reviews, collateral values, credit concentrations and other internal and external factors such as competition, legal and regulatory changes. Each loan pool’s historical loss rate is adjusted based on positive or negative changes in the qualitative loss factor. This adjustment is what determines the adjust loss rate used in management’s allowance for loan loss adequacy calculation.

Management exercises significant judgment in evaluating the relevant historical loss experience and the qualitative factors. Management also monitors the differences between estimated and actual incurred loan losses for loans considered impaired in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the estimation process and make any changes in the methodology as necessary.

The following portfolio segments are considered in the allowance for loan loss analysis: one-to-four family residential real estate, multi-family residential real estate, residential construction, commercial construction, commercial real estate non owner occupied, commercial real estate owner occupied, junior liens, home equity lines of credit, commercial business, and consumer loans.

Residential real estate loans primarily consist of loans to individuals for the purchase or refinance of their primary residence, with a smaller portion of the segment secured by non-owner-occupied residential investment properties and multi-family residential investment properties. Also, included within the residential real estate loan portfolio are home equity loans and junior lien loans, which are secured by liens on the borrower’s personal residence. The risks associated with residential real estate loans are closely correlated to the local housing market and general economic conditions, as repayment of the loans is primarily dependent on the borrower's or tenant's personal cash flow and employment status.

The Company’s construction loan portfolio consists of single-family residential properties, multi-family properties and commercial projects, and includes both owner-occupied and speculative investment properties. Risks inherent in construction lending are related to the market value of the property held as collateral, the cost and timing of constructing or improving a property, the borrower's ability to use funds generated by a project to service a loan until a project is completed, movements in interest rates and the real estate market during the construction phase, and the ability of the borrower to obtain permanent financing.

Commercial real estate loans are comprised of loans secured by various types of collateral including farmland, office buildings, warehouses, retail space and mixed-use buildings located in the Company’s primary lending area. Risks related to commercial real estate lending are related to the market value of the property taken as collateral, the underlying cash flows and general economic condition of the local real estate market. Repayment of these loans is generally dependent on the ability of the borrower to attract tenants at lease rates or general business operating cash flows that provide for adequate debt service and can be impacted by local economic conditions which impact vacancy rates and the general level of business activity. The Company generally obtains loan guarantees from financially capable parties for commercial real estate loans.

Commercial business loans include lines of credit to businesses, term loans and letters of credit secured by business assets such as equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, or other assets excluding real estate and are generally made to finance capital expenditures or fund operations. Commercial loans contain risks related to the value of the collateral securing the loan and the repayment is primarily dependent upon the financial success and viability of the borrower. As with commercial real estate loans, the Company generally obtains loan guarantees from financially capable parties for commercial business loans.

Consumer loans consist primarily of home improvement loans, automobile and truck loans, boat loans, mobile home loans, loans secured by savings deposits, and other personal loans. The risks associated with these loans are related to the local housing market and local economic conditions including the unemployment level.

Loan Charge-Offs. For portfolio segments other than consumer loans, the Company’s practice is to charge-off any loan or portion of a loan when the loan is determined by management to be uncollectible due to the borrower’s failure to meet repayment terms, the borrower’s deteriorating or deteriorated financial condition, the depreciation of the underlying collateral, the loan’s classification as a loss by regulatory examiners, or for other reasons. A partial charge-off is recorded on a loan when the collectability of a portion of the loan has been confirmed, such as when a loan is discharged in bankruptcy, the collateral is liquidated, a loan is restructured at a reduced principal balance, or other identifiable events that lead management to determine the full principal balance of the loan will not be repaid. A specific reserve is recognized as a component of the allowance for estimated losses on loans individually evaluated for impairment. Partial charge-offs on nonperforming and impaired loans are included in the Company’s historical loss experience used to estimate the general component of the allowance for loan losses as discussed above. Specific reserves are not considered charge-offs in management’s evaluation of the general component of the allowance for loan losses because they are estimates and the outcome of the loan relationship is undetermined. At September 30, 2019, the Company had 10 loans for which partial charge-offs in the aggregate of $243,000 had been recorded.

Consumer loans not secured by real estate are typically charged off at 90 days past due, or earlier if deemed uncollectible, unless the loans are in the process of collection. Overdrafts are charged off after 60 days past due. A charge-off is typically recorded on a loan secured by real estate when the property is foreclosed upon when the carrying value of the loan exceeds the property’s fair value less the estimated costs to sell.

Impaired Loans. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

Values for collateral dependent loans are generally based on appraisals obtained from independent licensed real estate appraisers, with adjustments applied for estimated costs to sell the property, costs to complete unfinished or repair damaged property and other factors. New appraisals or valuations are generally obtained for all significant properties (if the value is estimated to exceed $100,000) when a loan is identified as impaired. Subsequent appraisals are obtained or an internal evaluation is prepared annually, or more frequently if management believes there has been a significant change in the market value of a collateral property securing a collateral dependent impaired loan. In instances where it is not deemed necessary to obtain a new appraisal, management bases its impairment evaluation on the original appraisal with adjustments for current conditions based on management’s assessment of market factors and inspection of the property.

At September 30, 2019, there were no loans secured by residential real estate property for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process. At December 31, 2018, the recorded investment in loans secured by residential real estate property for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process was $170,000.

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, public information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company classifies loans based on credit risk at least quarterly. The Company uses the following regulatory definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention: Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard: Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful: Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss: Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance on the institution’s books as an asset is not warranted.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans.

Modification of a loan is considered to be a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") if the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. By granting the concession, the Company expects to obtain more cash or other value from the debtor, or to increase the probability of receipt, than would be expected by not granting the concession. The concession may include, but is not limited to, reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan, reduction of accrued interest, extension of the maturity date or reduction of the face amount of the debt. A concession will be granted when, as a result of the restructuring, the Company does not expect to collect all amounts due, including interest at the original stated rate. A concession may also be granted if the debtor is not able to access funds elsewhere at a market rate for debt with similar risk characteristics as the restructured debt. The Company’s determination of whether a loan modification is a TDR considers the individual facts and circumstances surrounding each modification.

A TDR can involve loans remaining on nonaccrual, moving to nonaccrual, or continuing on accrual status, depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the restructuring. A TDR on nonaccrual status is restored to accrual status when the borrower has demonstrated the ability to make future payments in accordance with the restructured terms, including consistent and timely payments for at least six consecutive months in accordance with the restructured terms.

For TDRs that were restructured during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the terms of modifications included a reduction of the stated interest rate, extension of the maturity date, and the renewal or refinancing of loans where the debtor was unable to access funds elsewhere at a market interest rate for debt with similar risk characteristics.

There were no principal charge-offs recorded as a result of TDRs and there was no specific allowance for loan losses related to TDRs modified during both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

There were no TDRs modified within the previous 12 months for which there was a subsequent payment default (defined as the loan becoming more than 90 days past due, being moved to nonaccrual status, or the collateral being foreclosed upon) during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. In the event that a TDR subsequently defaults, the Company evaluates the restructuring for possible impairment. As a result, the related allowance for loan losses may be increased or charge-offs may be taken to reduce the carrying amount of the loan.

5. Supplemental Disclosure for Earnings Per Share

Nonvested restricted stock shares and unallocated ESOP shares are not considered as outstanding for purposes of computing weighted average common shares outstanding. No stock options for common stock and no restricted stock awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share because their effect was antidilutive for both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Share amounts for 2018 have been restated to give retroactive recognition to the exchange ratio applied in the Conversion (2.3462 to one).

6. Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In connection with the Conversion, the Bank established a leveraged ESOP for eligible employees of the Company and the Bank. The ESOP trust purchased 204,789 shares of Company common stock at the initial public offering price of $10.00 per share financed by a 20-year term loan with the Company. The loan is secured by shares purchased with the loan proceeds and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from the Company's discretionary contributions to the ESOP and earnings on ESOP assets. The employer loan and the related interest income are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements as the debt is serviced by employer contributions. Dividends payable on allocated shares are charged to retained earnings and are satisfied by the allocation of cash dividends to participant accounts. Dividends payable on unallocated shares are not considered dividends for financial reporting purposes. Shares held by the ESOP trust are held in a suspense account and allocated to participant accounts as principal and interest payments are made by the ESOP to the Company. Payments of principal and interest are due annually on December 31st, the Company's fiscal year end.

As shares are committed to be released for allocation to participant accounts from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the average fair value of shares committed to be released during the year with a corresponding credit to stockholders’ equity and the shares become outstanding for earnings per share computations. The compensation expense is accrued throughout the year.

Compensation expense recognized for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 was $33,000 and $98,000, respectively. Compensation expense recognized for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 was $28,000. The ESOP trust held 5,147 allocated shares and 199,642 unallocated shares of Company common stock at September 30, 2019. The fair value of the unallocated shares was $2.7 million at September 30, 2019.

7. Stock-based Compensation Plans

The Company’s stock-based compensation plans are described below.

2010 Equity Incentive Plan

The Bank had an equity incentive plan (the “2010 Plan”) adopted on July 27, 2010 which was assumed by the Company in connection with the Conversion. Under the 2010 Plan, 127,849 shares of common stock, as adjusted for the Conversion exchange ratio, were approved for awards of stock options and restricted stock. As of September 30, 2019, on an adjusted basis, awards for stock options totaling 2,199 shares and awards for restricted stock totaling 3,179 shares of Company common stock have been granted, net of any forfeitures, to participants in the Plan.

The vesting dates for stock option awards are determined by the Compensation Committee appointed by the board of directors. All unvested options become exercisable upon an option holder’s death or disability and in the event of a change in control. Option prices may not be less than the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of the grant of the award. Restricted stock awards generally vest over a period of five years. The Plans provides that unvested restricted stock awards become fully vested upon a holder’s death or disability and in the event of a change in control. Compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period with a corresponding credit to stockholders' equity. The requisite service period for restricted shares is the vesting period.

The fair market value of stock options granted is determined at the date of grant using the binomial option pricing model. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company's stock (for periods prior to the Conversion, the historical volatility of the Bank’s common stock). The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding and is based on historical trends. The risk free rate for the expected life of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

A summary of option activity under the 2010 Plan as of September 30, 2019, and changes during the nine month period then ended is presented below:

	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value

Outstanding at beginning of year		2,808	$	5.97
Granted		-		-
Exercise		-		-
Forfeited or expired		(609)		6.56

Outstanding at end of period		2,199	$	5.81		2.7	$	17,000

Vested and expected to vest		2,199	$	5.81		2.7	$	17,000

Exercisable at end of period		2,152	$	5.83		2.7	$	16,000

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized no compensation expense related to the stock option plan as the amount of compensation cost determined under ASC Topic 718 was insignificant.

A summary of the activity for the Company’s nonvested restricted shares as of September 30, 2019 and changes during the nine month period then ended is presented below:

	Number of Shares			Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value

Nonvested at beginning of year		280			$ 7.12
Granted		-			-
Vested		(92	)		6.59
Forfeited		(141	)		8.18

Nonvested at end of period		47			$ 5.00

The total fair value of shares vested during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, was $1,000 and $3,000, respectively. At September 30, 2019, unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted shares was $1,000. The compensation expense is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 0.7 years.

2019 Equity Incentive Plan

In September 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”) which provides for the award of stock options and restricted stock. Under the 2019 Plan the Compensation Committee may grant stock options that, upon exercise, result in the issuance of 255,987 shares of common stock and may grant 102,395 shares of restricted stock. At September 30, 2019, no awards of stock options or restricted stock have been granted under the 2019 Plan.

8. Fair Value Measurements

FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC Topic 820 are described as follows:

Level 1:

Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets

Level 2:

Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3:

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

These valuation methodologies were applied to all of the Company’s financial and nonfinancial assets carried at fair value or the lower of cost or fair value. The table below presents the balances of assets measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based on internally developed models or obtained from third parties that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters or a matrix pricing model that employs the Bond Market Association’s standard calculations for cash flow and price/yield analysis and observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value, or the lower of cost or fair value. These adjustments may include unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments have been applied consistently over time. The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Securities Available for Sale. Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value on a recurring basis. These securities are classified as Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy where quoted market prices from reputable third-party brokers are available in an active market. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. These securities are reported using Level 2 inputs and the fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, U.S. government and agency yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the security’s terms and conditions, among other factors. Changes in fair value of securities available for sale are recorded in other comprehensive income, net of income tax effect.

Impaired Loans. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. The fair value of impaired loans is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Impaired loans are carried at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan's effective interest rate or the fair value of collateral less estimated costs to sell if the loan is collateral dependent. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, all impaired loans were considered to be collateral dependent for the purpose of determining fair value. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets, including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable. The fair value of the collateral is generally determined based on real estate appraisals or other independent evaluations by qualified professionals, adjusted for estimated costs to sell the property, costs to complete or repair the property and other factors to reflect management’s estimate of the fair value of the collateral given the current market conditions and the condition of the collateral. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of collateral dependent impaired loans included a discount from appraised value (including estimated costs to sell the collateral) of 10%. The Company recognized a reduction in the allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans of $3,000 and $10,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company recognized a reduction in the allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans of $19,000 and $50,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Real Estate Held for Sale. Real estate held for sale is reviewed and evaluated on at least an annual basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. The fair value of real estate held for sale is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of real estate held for sale included a discount from appraised value (including estimated costs to sell the property) of 10%. The Company recognized charges to write down real estate held for sale of $104,000 during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. The Company recognized charges to write down real estate held for sale of $32,000 during the both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

There have been no changes in the valuation techniques and related inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. There were no transfers into or out of the Company’s Level 3 financial assets for both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

GAAP requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company. The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:

9.	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

As an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Title 1 of Jumpstart Our Business Startups (“JOBS”) Act, the Company has elected to use the extended transition period to delay adoption of new or reissued accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards. As of September 30, 2019, the Company does not believe there is a significant difference in the comparability of the financial statements as a result of this extended transition period, however, the Company’s assessment of its revenue recognition policies under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Topic 606 is not yet complete.

The following are summaries of recently issued or adopted accounting pronouncements that impact the accounting and reporting practices of the Company:

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The ASU provides a five-step revenue recognition model for all revenue arising from contracts with customers and affects all entities that enter into contracts to provide goods or services to their customers (unless the contracts are included in the scope of other standards). The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The ASU is effective for public entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017; early adoption is not permitted. The ASU is effective for nonpublic entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. For financial reporting purposes, the ASU allows for either full retrospective adoption, meaning the ASU is applied to all of the periods presented, or modified retrospective adoption, meaning the ASU is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application. As a bank, key revenue sources, such as interest income have been identified as out of the scope of this new guidance. The Company’s analysis suggests that the adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as substantially all of the Company’s revenues are excluded from the scope of the new guidance.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The ASU requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities arising from operating leases. A lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. A lessee should include payments to be made in an optional period only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease. For a finance lease, interest payments should be recognized separately from amortization of the right-of-use asset in the statement of comprehensive income. For operating leases, the lease cost should be allocated over the lease term on a generally straight-line basis. For public entities the amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For nonpublic entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early application of the amendments in the ASU is permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements. This ASU amended the new leases standard to give entities another option for transition and to provide lessors with a practical expedient. The transition option allows entities to not apply the new leases standard in the comparative periods they present in their financial statements in the year of adoption. The practical expedient provides lessors with an option to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease components when certain criteria are met and requires them to account for the combined component in accordance with the new revenue standard if the associated non-lease components are the predominant components. The amendments have the same effective date as ASU 2016-02. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842), Codification Improvements. This ASU amended the new leases standard to reinstate the exception in Leases (Topic 842) for lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers in regards to determining the fair value of the underlying assets. Specifically, those lessors will use their cost, reflecting any volume or trade discounts that may apply, as the fair value of the underlying asset unless a significant lapse of time occurs between the acquisition of the underlying asset and lease commencement, in which case, those lessors will be required to apply the definition of fair value (exit price) in Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820). In addition, this ASU amended the new leases standard to clarify the presentation on the Statement of Cash Flows principal payments received under leases for depository and lending institutions for Sales-Type and Direct Financing Leases. Specifically for these entities and leases, all principal payments received under leases will be presented within investing activities on the Statement of Cash Flows. Finally, this ASU amended the new leases standard to explicitly provide an exception to paragraph 250-10-50-3 interim disclosure requirements for an entity electing the transition method of implementation. The amendments have the same effective date as ASU 2016-02. The effect of the adoption of these ASUs will depend on leases at time of adoption. Once adopted, the Company expects to report higher assets and liabilities as a result of including right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to certain banking offices under noncancelable operating lease agreements, however, based on current leases, the adoption is expected to increase our consolidated balance sheets by less than 5% and not to have a material impact on its regulatory capital ratios.

The FASB originally issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) as amended by ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-05, in June 2016. The update replaces the incurred loss methodology for recognizing credit losses under current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. Under the new guidance, an entity will measure all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The expected loss model will apply to loans and leases, unfunded lending commitments, held-to-maturity debt securities and other debt instruments measured at amortized cost. The impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities will require the recognition of credit losses through a valuation allowance when fair value is less than amortized cost, regardless of whether the impairment is considered to be other-than-temporary. ASU 2019-05, issued in April 2019, further provides that entities that have certain financial instruments measured at amortized cost that have credit losses, to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10, upon adoption of Topic 326. The fair value option applies to available-for-sale debt securities. The amendments in these ASUs are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022, assuming the adoption of an ASU implementing the FASB board decision in October 2019 extending the adoption date for certain registrants, including the Company, with early adoption permitted. Once adopted, the Company expects its allowance for loan losses to increase through a one-time adjustment to retained earnings, however, until its evaluation is complete, the magnitude of the increase will be unknown.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU is intended to address the appropriate classification of eight specific cash flow issues on the cash flow statement. Debt prepayment costs should be classified as an outflow for financing activities. Settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments divides the interest portion as an outflow for operating activities and the principal portion as an outflow for financing activities. Contingent consideration payments made after a business combination should be classified as outflows for financing and operating activities. Proceeds from the settlement of bank-owned life insurance policies should be classified as inflows from investing activities. Other specific areas are identified in the ASU as to the appropriate classification of the cash inflows or outflows. For public entities the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For nonpublic business entities the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted and must be applied using retrospective transition method to each period presented. Adoption of the ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The ASU shortens the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The standard will take effect for SEC filers for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU amends the accounting for shared-based payments awards to nonemployees to align with the accounting for employee awards. Under the new guidance, the existing employee guidance will apply to nonemployee share-based transactions (as long as the transaction is not effectively a form of financing), with the exception of specific guidance related to the attribution of compensation cost. The cost of nonemployee awards will continue to be recorded as if the grantor had paid cash for the goods or services. In addition, the contractual term will be able to be used in lieu of an expected term in the option-pricing model for nonemployee awards. For public entities the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For nonpublic business entities the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of the ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The update removes, modifies and adds certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Among other changes, entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements, but will be required to disclose the range and weighted average of significant observable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of the update. The adoption of the ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Overview

Our principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those funds, along with borrowed funds, in loans secured by first and second mortgages on one- to four-family residences (including home equity loans and lines of credit), commercial and multifamily, consumer and commercial business loans and, to a lesser extent, construction and land loans. We offer a wide variety of consumer loan products, including automobile loans, boat loans, manufactured homes not secured by permanent dwellings and recreational vehicle loans. We intend to continue emphasizing our residential mortgage, home equity and consumer lending, while also expanding our emphasis in commercial and multifamily and commercial business lending.

Our operating revenues are derived principally from earnings on interest earning assets, service charges and fees. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances and other borrowings, and payments received on loans and securities. We offer a variety of deposit accounts that provide a wide range of interest rates and terms, generally including savings, money market, term certificate and checking accounts. Our noninterest expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, expenses for occupancy, marketing and computer services and FDIC deposit insurance premiums. Salaries and benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for retirement and other employee benefits. Occupancy expenses, which are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, consist primarily of lease payments, property taxes, depreciation charges, maintenance and costs of utilities.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of income and expenses. We consider the accounting policies discussed below to be significant accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions that we use are based on historical experience and various other factors and are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, resulting in a change that could have a material impact on the carrying value of our assets and liabilities and our results of operations.

The following represent our significant accounting policies:

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the date of the statement of condition and it is recorded as a reduction of loans. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely. Because all identified losses are immediately charged off, no portion of the allowance for loan losses is restricted to any individual loan and the entire allowance is available to absorb all loan losses.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on our past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For loans that are classified impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows or collateral value of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan.

-40-

The general component covers pools of loans, by loan class, including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogenous loans, such as residential real estate, home equity and other consumer loans. These pools of loans are evaluated for loss exposure based on historical loss rates for each of these categories of loans, which are adjusted for qualitative factors. The qualitative factors include:

•	Lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collection, charge-off and recovery practices;

•	National, regional and local economic and business conditions as well as the condition of various market segments;

•	Nature and volume of the portfolio and terms of the loans;

•	Experience, ability and depth of the lending management and staff;

•	Changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans;

•	The existence and effect of any concentrations of credit, and changes in the level of such concentrations;

•	The effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the institution’s existing portfolio;

•	Volume and severity of past due, classified and non-accrual loans, as well as other loan modifications; and

•	Quality of our loan review system and the degree of oversight by our board of directors.

Each factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on management's best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. Adjustments to the factors are supported through documentation of changes in conditions in a narrative accompanying the allowance for loan loss analysis and calculation.

An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management's estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

In addition, various bank regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require an increase in the provision for possible loan losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examination.

Income Taxes. Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of certain transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements. Income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to temporary differences between the financial reporting and income tax basis of the allowance for loan losses, premises and equipment, certain state tax credits, and deferred loan origination costs. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of the temporary differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.

Estimation of Fair Values. Fair values for securities available-for-sale are obtained from an independent third-party pricing service. Where available, fair values are based on quoted prices on a nationally recognized securities exchange. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using quoted market prices for similar benchmark securities. Management generally makes no adjustments to the fair value quotes provided by the pricing source. The fair values of foreclosed real estate and the underlying collateral value of impaired loans are typically determined based on evaluations by third parties, less estimated costs to sell. When necessary, appraisals are updated to reflect changes in market conditions.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018

Total assets increased $8.4 million, or 4.2%, to $209.1 million at September 30, 2019 from $200.7 million at December 31, 2018.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $7.2 million, or 56.5%, to $19.9 million at September 30, 2019 from $12.7 million at December 31, 2018 primarily due to an increase in advances from the FHLB.

Loans. Our primary lending activity is the origination of loans secured by real estate. We originate one-to-four family residential loans, multifamily residential loans, commercial real estate loans and construction loans. To a lesser extent, we originate commercial business loans and consumer loans. Net loans receivable decreased $2.1 million, or 1.7%, to $124.2 million at September 30, 2019 from $126.3 million at December 31, 2018. The decrease in net loans receivable was due primarily to decreases in one-to-four family residential loans partially offset by increases in multi-family residential and commercial business loans.

Securities Available for Sale. Our available for sale securities portfolio consists primarily of U.S. government agency debt securities, including mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, and municipal obligations. Securities available for sale increased $4.3 million, or 8.1%, to $57.4 million at September 30, 2019 from $53.1 million at December 31, 2018. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was due primarily to the purchases of $6.6 million of municipal obligations and $2.0 million of mortgage-backed securities and a $2.3 million increase in the gross unrealized gain of the portfolio, partially offset by principal collections on federal agency mortgage-backed securities of $5.7 million and sales and maturities of municipal obligations and mortgage-backed securities of $278,000 and $506,000 respectively.

Securities Held to Maturity. Our held to maturity securities portfolio consists primarily of U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities, as well as municipal obligations. Securities held to maturity decreased $56,000, or 56.0%, to $44,000 at September 30, 2019 from $100,000 at December 31, 2018 primarily due to maturities of municipal obligations.

Deposits. Deposit accounts, primarily obtained from individuals and businesses throughout our local market area, are the primary source of funds for our lending and investments. Our deposit accounts are comprised of noninterest-bearing checking, interest-bearing checking, savings, and money market accounts and certificates of deposit. Deposits decreased $3.5 million, or 2.3%, to $147.7 million at September 30, 2019 from $151.1 million at December 31, 2018.

Borrowings. On June 27, 2019, the Company borrowed $10.0 million from the FHLB which matures on June 27, 2024. The Company had no outstanding borrowings at December 31, 2018.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $2.1 million to $50.9 million at September 30, 2019 from $48.8 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to net income of $764,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, of $1.7 million primarily due to improvements in the fair market value of our available-for-sale investments. These increases were partially offset by the purchase of 24,100 treasury shares at an average cost per share of $12.74 or $307,000 in total due to the Company’s implementation of a stock repurchase program in August 2019.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

Net Income. Net income was $105,000 ($0.03 per common share diluted) for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to net income of $276,000 ($0.08 per common share diluted) for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Net income was $764,000 ($0.23 per common share diluted) for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to net income of $893,000 ($0.26 per common share diluted) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The primary reason for the reduction in net income between the periods was increased noninterest expenses partially offset by increased net interest income.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income after provision for loan losses increased $42,000, or 2.5%, to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 primarily due to an increase in the interest rate spread.

Total interest income increased $129,000, or 6.8%, to $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase resulted from increases in both the average balance and the average yield of interest-earning assets. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased to $199.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $197.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets was 4.17% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 3.91% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 primarily due to higher yields earned on the investment portfolio reflecting higher market interest rates on new securities purchases.

Total interest expense increased $81,000, or 43.5%, to $267,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $186,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 due to an increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to $140.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $140.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.76% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 0.53% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. As a result of the changes in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the interest rate spread increased to 3.41% from 3.38% and the net interest margin increased to 3.64% from 3.53% for the quarters ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Net interest income after provision for loan losses increased $542,000, or 11.4%, to $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 primarily due to an increase in the interest rate spread.

Total interest income increased $664,000, or 12.5%, to $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase resulted from increases in both the average balance of and yield earned on interest-earning assets. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased to $193.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $183.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets was 4.22% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 3.93% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Total interest expense increased $116,000, or 21.4%, to $658,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $542,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to an increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to $133.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $140.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.66% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 0.51% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. As a result of the changes in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the interest rate spread increased to 3.56% from 3.42% and the net interest margin increased to 3.77% from 3.54% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Provision for Loan Losses. Non-performing loans decreased to $1.1 million, or 0.9% of total loans, at September 30, 2019 compared to $1.3 million, or 1.0% of total loans at December 31, 2018. At September 30, 2019, $780,000 or 70.9% of nonperforming loans were current on their loan payments. Based on an analysis of the factors described in "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Allowance for Loan Losses”, the Company recorded a $6,000 provision for loan losses for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to no provision for the same periods of 2018.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $5,000, or 2.4%, to $215,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $210,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to increased ATM and debit card fee income of $11,000, partially offset by a decrease in deposit account service charges of $5,000.

Noninterest income increased $7,000, or 1.1%, to $631,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $624,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to increased ATM and debit card fee income of $25,000 and a realized net gain on sale of securities available for sale of $7,000 partially offset by decreases in deposit account service charges of $20,000 and a $4,000 decrease in other income.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $299,000, or 18.8%, to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Data processing expense increased $195,000, or 89.0%, to $414,000 for the current quarter compared to $219,000 for the same quarter last year primarily due to $193,000 of contract termination expenses related to the Bank’s core processing system conversion which began in October 2019. The Bank does not anticipate any additional contract termination and deconversion expenses to be recognized during 2019. Professional fees increased $11,000, or 7.1%, to $166,000 compared to $155,000 for the same quarter last year due to increased legal services. Occupancy expense increased $5,000, or 4.8% to $109,000 for the current quarter compared to $104,000 for the same quarter last year. The Company recorded an impairment loss on real estate held for sale of $104,000 in the current quarter, compared to $32,000 for the same quarter in 2018. Stockholder meeting expense increased $44,000, to $45,000 for the current quarter, compared to $1,000 for the same quarter last year due to a special stockholder meeting held in September 2019. Other expenses increased $17,000, or 9.5%, to $196,000 for the current quarter, compared to $179,000 for the same quarter last year due to increased ATM and debit card fees reflecting higher transaction volume. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $28,000, or 3.4%, in compensation and benefits, supervisory examination fees of $10,000, or 37.0%, and deposit insurance premiums of $6,000, or 42.9%.

Noninterest expense increased $790,000, or 18.3%, to $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Compensation and benefits increased $110,000, or 4.9%, to $2.4 million compared to $2.3 million due primarily to an increase in medical insurance premiums and ESOP compensation expense. Data processing expense increased $414,000, or 69.3%, to $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $597,000 primarily due to $389,000 of contract termination expenses recognized during the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 related to the Bank’s core processing system conversion. Professional fees increased $113,000, or 30.2%, to $487,000 compared to $374,000 for the same period last year primarily due to increased legal services. The Company recorded an impairment loss on real estate held for sale of $104,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $32,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Stockholder meeting expense increased $66,000, to $73,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $7,000 for the same period last year due to a special stockholder meeting held in September 2019. Other expenses increased $58,000, or 12.2%, to $534,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $476,000 for the same period last year. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $27,000, or 8.1%, in occupancy and equipment expenses, supervisory examination fees of $11,000, or 17.5%, and deposit insurance premiums of $7,000, or 17.5%.

Income Tax Expense. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $24,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to expense of $57,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Income tax expense was $84,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $196,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 resulting from the reduction in our effective corporate income tax rate to 9.9% compared to 18.0%. The decrease in the effective tax rate is due largely to increased tax-exempt investment income proportionate to overall pre-tax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity management is both a daily and longer-term function of management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as overnight deposits and federal funds. On a longer term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products and investment securities, including municipal and mortgage-backed securities. We use our sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits, fund deposit withdrawals and fund loan commitments.

We maintain cash and investments that qualify as liquid assets to maintain adequate liquidity to ensure safe and sound operation and meet demands for customer funds (particularly withdrawals of deposits). At September 30, 2019, we had $77.3 million in cash and investment securities available for sale generally available for its cash needs. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, we have additional borrowing capacity with the FHLB of Indianapolis and additional collateral eligible for repurchase agreements. We are required to have enough cash and investments that qualify as liquid assets in order to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure safe and sound operations. Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon the availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to the return on loans. Historically, we have maintained liquid assets above levels believed to be adequate to meet the requirements of normal operations, including potential deposit outflows. Cash flow projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity is maintained.

Liquidity management involves the matching of cash flow requirements of customers, who may be either depositors desiring to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs and our ability to manage those requirements. We strive to maintain an adequate liquidity position by managing the balances and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities so that the balance we have in short-term investments at any given time will cover adequately any reasonably anticipated, immediate need for funds. Additionally, we maintain relationships with correspondent banks, which could provide funds on short-term notice if needed. Our liquidity, represented by cash and cash-equivalents, is a product of our operating, investing and financing activities.

The Company is a separate legal entity from Mid-Southern Savings Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. Sources of capital and liquidity for the Company include any net proceeds retained upon completion of the Conversion, any distributions from the Bank and the issuance of debt or equity securities. Dividends and other capital distributions from the Bank are subject to regulatory notice. On a stand-alone basis, the Company had liquid assets of $12.1 million at September 30, 2019.

Our liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents and investment securities, is a product of our operating, investing and financing activities. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. We also generate cash through borrowings. We utilize FHLB advances to leverage our capital base and provide funds for our lending and investment activities, and to enhance our interest rate risk management.

We use our sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and to fund loan commitments. At September 30, 2019, the approved outstanding loan commitments, including unused lines and letters of credit, amounted to $17.3 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at September 30, 2019, totaled $25.6 million. It is management’s policy to manage deposit rates that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on this management strategy, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will remain with us.

The Bank is subject to minimum capital requirements imposed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”). Consistent with our goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy is for the Bank to maintain a "well-capitalized" status under the capital categories of the OCC. Based on capital levels at September 30, 2019, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and met the requirements to be deemed "well-capitalized" under applicable OCC regulatory guidelines.

The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table.

						Minimum for Capital					Minimum to be Well
						Adequacy Purposes					Capitalized under
						with Capital					Prompt Corrective
	Actual					Conservation Buffer:					Action Provisions:
(Dollars in thousands)	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio

As of September 30, 2019:

Total Capital (to risk
weighted assets)	$	38,520		33.4	%	$	12,096		10.500	%	$	11,520		10.0	%

Tier 1 Capital (to risk

Tier 1 Capital (to average
adjusted total assets)	$	37,080		17.7	%	$	8,369		4.000	%	$	10,461		5.0	%

As of December 31, 2018:

Total Capital (to risk
weighted assets)	$	37,542		31.9	%	$	11,608		9.875	%	$	11,755		10.0	%

Tier 1 Capital (to risk

Common equity Tier 1
Capital (to risk
weighted assets)	$	36,073		30.7	%	$	7,494		6.375	%	$	7,641		6.5	%

Tier 1 Capital (to average
adjusted total assets)	$	36,073		18.0	%	$	8,024		4.000	%	$	10,030		5.0	%

In addition to the minimum capital ratios, the Bank has to maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional common equity Tier 1 capital greater than 2.5% of risk-weighted assets above the required minimum levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses based on percentages of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions. At September 30, 2019, the Bank’s common equity Tier 1 capital exceeded the required capital conservation buffer.

For a bank holding company with less than $3.0 billion in assets, the capital guidelines apply on a bank only basis and the Federal Reserve expects the holding company’s subsidiary banks to be well capitalized under the prompt corrective action regulations. If Mid-Southern Bancorp, Inc. was subject to regulatory guidelines for bank holding companies with $3.0 billion or more in assets, at September 30, 2019, Mid-Southern Bancorp, Inc. would have exceeded all regulatory capital requirements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with GAAP, are not recorded on the Company’s financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are primarily used to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and letters of credit.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company did not engage in any off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

For information regarding the Company’s market risk, see “Risk Factors” in the Company’s 2018 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2019, the market risk of the Company has not changed materially from those disclosed in the 2018 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) was carried out as of September 30, 2019 under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and several other members of the Company’s senior management. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

The Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that based on their evaluation at September 30, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to Company management, including its CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the nine-months ended September 30, 2019, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by override of the control. The design of any control procedure is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
