Bogota Financial Corp. Reports Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

TEANECK, N.J., Nov. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bogota Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: BSBK) (the “Company”), the holding company for Bogota Savings Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income for the three months ended September 30, 2025 of $455,000, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $367,000, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable prior year period. The Company reported net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 of $1.4 million, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable prior year period. Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 included a one-time death benefit from a bank-owned life insurance policy related to a former employee of approximately $543,000. On August 12, 2025, the Company announced it had received regulatory approval for the repurchase of up to 237,590 shares of its common stock, or approximately 5% of its then outstanding common stock (excluding shares held by Bogota Financial, MHC). The repurchase program does not have a scheduled expiration date and the Board of Directors has the right to suspend or discontinue the program at any time. As of September 30, 2025, 4,821 shares have been repurchased pursuant to the program at a cost of $42,000. Other Financial Highlights: Total assets decreased $45.7 million, or 4.7%, to $925.8 million at September 30, 2025 from $971.5 million at December 31, 2024, due largely to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and loans, offset by an increase in securities. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $21.0 million, or 40.2%, to $31.2 million at September 30, 2025 from $52.2 million at December 31, 2024 as excess funds were used to pay down borrowings and to purchase securities. Securities increased $20.4 million, or 14.6%, to $160.7 million at September 30, 2025 from $140.3 million at December 31, 2024 due to purchases of mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds. Net loans decreased $42.5 million, or 6.0%, to $669.2 million at September 30, 2025 from $711.7 million at December 31, 2024, primarily due to decreases in residential mortgages and construction loans. Total deposits at September 30, 2025 were $646.8 million, increasing $4.6 million, or 0.7%, compared to $642.2 million at December 31, 2024, due to a $9.3 million increase in certificates of deposit and a $5.7 million increase in savings accounts. The increases were offset by a $3.6 million decrease in money market accounts, a $3.4 million decrease in noninterest bearing accounts and a $3.4 million decrease in NOW accounts. The average rate on deposits decreased 26 basis points to 3.69% for the first three quarters of 2025 from 3.95% from comparable period a year ago, which was due to lower interest rates and average balances of certificates of deposit. Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $52.8 million, or 30.6% to $119.4 million at September 30, 2025 from $172.2 million as of December 31, 2024. The decrease in borrowings was largely attributable to advances that were paid down during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Kevin Pace, President and Chief Executive Officer, said “Our third quarter results reflect our continued resilience despite a challenging interest rate environment. We continue to focus on growth in our commercial portfolio and maintaining high quality credit. Improved core deposit relationships and maintaining exceptional customer service remain a focal point.” “We recently received regulatory approval for our sixth stock buyback program. As we move into the final quarter of 2025, we remain focused on sustainable growth, operational efficiency and delivering long-term value for our customers and shareholders." Income Statement Analysis Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 Net income increased $822,000 to $455,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from a net loss of $367,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $1.2 million in net interest income, partially offset by a decrease of $326,000 in income tax benefit. Interest income increased $8,000, or 0.1%, and was $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2025. Interest income on cash and cash equivalents increased $41,000, or 29.7%, to $179,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $138,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 due to a $6.5 million increase in the average balance to $16.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $10.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, reflecting loan repayments, which were offset by a reduction of borrowings. This was offset by a 112-basis point decrease in the average yield from 5.39% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to 4.27% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due to the lower interest rate environment. Interest income on loans decreased $168,000, or 2.0%, as a $28.6 million decrease in the average balance of loans was offset by an eight basis point increase in the yield. Interest income on securities increased $206,000, or 10.9%, due to a 141-basis point increase in the average yield offset by a $33.3 million decrease in the average balance. The changes in the yield and average balance reflect that, in the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company sold approximately $66.0 million in amortized cost ($57.1 million in market value) of securities with a weighted average yield of 1.89% and reinvested $32.7 million of those proceeds into securities with a weighted average yield of 5.60%. Interest expense decreased $1.2 million, or 15.4%, from $8.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $6.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due to lower costs on deposits and lower balances on borrowings. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the use of hedges reduced the interest expense on the Federal Home Loan Bank advances and brokered deposits by $205,000. At September 30, 2025, cash flow hedges used to manage interest rate risk had a notional value of $85.0 million, while fair value hedges totaled $60.0 million in notional value. Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits decreased $535,000, or 8.7%, to $5.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $6.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was due to a 46-basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits to 3.58% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 4.04% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in the average cost of deposits was due to the lower interest rate environment and a decrease in the rate paid on certificates of deposit offset by an increase in the rate paid on transactional accounts. Our rates on certificates of deposit decreased 61 basis points to 3.89% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 4.50% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, while the average balances of certificates of deposit increased $5.4 million to $502.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $497.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The average balance of NOW/money market accounts and savings accounts increased $4.9 million and $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $694,000, or 38.5%, from $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of $80.8 million to $116.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $196.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was offset by an increase in the average cost of borrowings of 15 basis points to 3.79% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 3.64% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 due to the new borrowings being shorter durations at higher rates. Net interest income increased $1.2 million, or 46.6%, to $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase reflected a 64-basis point increase in our net interest rate spread to 1.30% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 0.66% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Our net interest margin increased 65 basis points to 1.80% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 1.15% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. We recorded a $50,000 recovery of credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to no provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 due to lower loan balances and commitments. Non-interest income decreased $6,000, or 1.8%, to $321,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $327,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 due to the gain on sale of loans of $12,000 in 2024. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, non-interest expense increased $133,000, or 3.7%, over the comparable 2024 period. Professional fees increased $113,000, or 45.6%, due to an increase in legal and consulting fees. Occupancy and equipment costs increased $259,000, or 68.0%, as a result of the lease-buyback transaction completed in the fourth quarter of 2024, which resulted in increased lease expense going forward. These increases were offset by a $79,000, or 3.8%, reduction in salaries and employee benefits, which decreased due to lower headcount, a $75,000, or 87.9%, decrease in advertising expenses and a $58,000, or 26.9%, decrease in other non-interest expense. Income tax expense increased $326,000 to an expense of $73,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from a $253,000 benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was due to an increase of $1.1 million in pre-tax income. Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 Net income increased by $2.7 million to net income of $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from a net loss of $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $3.1 million in net interest income and a $200,000 decrease in the provision for credit losses, partially offset by a $478,000 increase in non-interest expense and an increase of $814,000 in income tax expense. Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 included a one-time death benefit of approximately $543,000 from a bank-owned life insurance policy related to a former employee. Interest income increased $900,000, or 2.9%, from $31.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $32.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 due to higher yields on interest-earning assets, offset by a decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets. Interest income on cash and cash equivalents increased $135,000, or 32.5%, to $550,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $415,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 due to a $5.3 million increase in the average balance to $14.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $9.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This was partially offset by a 100-basis point decrease in the average yield from 6.09% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 5.09% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, due to the lower interest rate environment. Interest income on loans increased $221,000, or 0.9%, to $25.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $24.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 due primarily to a 16-basis point increase in the average yield from 4.66% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 4.82% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, offset by a $16.5 million decrease in the average balance to $695.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $711.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Interest income on securities increased $595,000, or 11.3%, to $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to a 142-basis point increase in the average yield from 3.92% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 5.34% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, which was offset by a $33.0 million decrease in the average balance to $146.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $179.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in the average balance and the increase in the yield was as a result of the balance sheet restructuring undertaken in the fourth quarter of 2024, where certain lower-yielding securities were sold and a portion of the proceeds were reinvested into higher-yielding securities and all remaining held to maturity securities were reclassified as available for sale. Interest expense decreased $2.2 million, or 9.7%, from $23.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $20.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to lower average balances on certificates of deposit and borrowings and a lower rate paid on certificates of deposit. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the use of hedges reduced the interest expense on the Federal Home Loan Bank advances and brokered deposits by $568,000. At September 30, 2025, cash flow hedges used to manage interest rate risk had a notional value of $85.0 million, while fair value hedges totaled $60.0 million in notional value. Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits decreased $1.5 million, or 8.0%, to $16.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $18.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was due to a 26-basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits to 3.69% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from 3.95% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in the average cost was driven by a 34-basis point decrease in the average cost of certificates of deposit to 4.05% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from 4.39% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in the average cost of deposits was due to the lower interest rate environment and a change in the composition of the deposit portfolio as the average balance of certificates of deposit declined while the average balance of transactional accounts increased. The average balances of certificates of deposit decreased $20.6 million to $489.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $510.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 while average NOW/money market accounts and savings accounts increased $6.8 million and $4.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $756,000, or 16.0%. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of $36.9 million to $134.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $171.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was offset by an increase in the average cost of borrowings of 26 basis points to 3.93% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from 3.67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 due to the new borrowings being for shorter durations at higher rates. Net interest income increased $3.1 million, or 38.9%, to $11.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase reflected a 53-basis point increase in our net interest rate spread to 1.21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from 0.68% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Our net interest margin increased 55 basis points to 1.73% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from 1.18% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. We recorded a $130,000 recovery of credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to a $70,000 provision for credit losses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in the allowance for credit losses was due to the decrease in loans and held-to-maturity securities. Non-interest income increased $612,000, or 65.9%, to $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $930,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Bank-owned life insurance income increased $564,000, or 87.1%, due to a death benefit related to a former employee and higher balances during 2025. In addition to the death benefit, gains on sale of loans also increased by $26,000 when compared to the comparable period in 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, non-interest expense increased $478,000, or 4.4%, over the comparable 2024 period. Professional fees increased $250,000, or 36.7%, due to higher legal and consulting expense. Occupancy and equipment costs increased $833,000, or 74.4%, as a result of the lease-buyback transaction completed in the fourth quarter of 2024, which resulted in increased lease expense going forward. These were offset by a $241,000, or 3.8%, reduction in salaries and employee benefit, which decreased due to lower headcount, advertising expense, which decreased by $179,000, or 57.6%, and other non-interest expense, which decreased $183,000, or 24.4%. Income tax expense increased $814,000, or 99.1%, to a benefit of $8,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from a $821,000 benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was due to an increase of $3.5 million in pre-tax income. Included in the net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was a one-time death benefit of approximately $543,000 from a bank-owned life insurance policy, which was a non-taxable event and reduced the Company's effective tax rate for the period. Balance Sheet Analysis Total assets were $925.8 million at September 30, 2025, representing a decrease of $45.7 million, or 4.7%, from December 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $21.0 million during the period primarily due to the paydown of borrowings. Net loans decreased $42.5 million, or 6.0%, due to $68.4 million in repayments, partially offset by new production of $24.0 million. This resulted in a $23.2 million decrease in the balance of residential loans, an $18.0 million decrease in construction loans and a decrease of $3.8 million of multi-family loans. These decreases were offset by a $4.8 million increase in commercial real estate loans. Due to the interest rate environment, we have seen a decrease in demand for residential and construction loans, which have been primary drivers of our loan growth in recent periods. Securities available for sale increased $20.4 million or 14.6%, due to new purchases of mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds. The Company also made a $2.5 million equity investment as part of a $10 million commitment to fund a limited partnership which invests in sale leaseback transactions. Delinquent loans increased $7.5 million to $21.8 million, or 3.24% of total loans, at September 30, 2025, compared to $14.3 million at December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to one commercial real estate loan with a balance of $7.1 million, which is considered well-secured, accruing and in the process of collection. During the same timeframe, non-performing assets increased from $14.0 million at December 31, 2024 to $20.5 million, which represented 2.21% of total assets at September 30, 2025. No loans were charged off during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2025 or September 30, 2024. The Company’s allowance for credit losses related to loans was 0.38% of total loans and 12.42% of non-performing loans at September 30, 2025 compared to 0.37% of total loans and 18.77% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2024. The Bank has limited exposure to commercial real estate loans secured by office space. At September 30, 2025, the Company did not hold any held-to-maturity securities at September 30, 2025 or at December 31, 2024. Total liabilities decreased $49.1 million, or 5.9%, to $785.1 million mainly due to a $52.8 million decrease in borrowings. Total deposits increased $4.6 million, or 0.7%, to $646.8 million at September 30, 2025 from $642.2 million at December 31, 2024. The increase in deposits reflected an increase in certificate of deposit accounts, which increased by $9.3 million to $502.5 million from $493.3 million at December 31, 2024 and an increase in savings accounts which increased by $5.7 million from $46.9 million at December 31, 2024 to $52.6 million at September 30, 2025. These increases were offset by a decrease in NOW deposit accounts, which decreased by $3.4 million to $52.0 million from $55.4 million at December 31, 2024, a decrease in money market deposit accounts, which decreased by $3.6 million to $10.4 million from $14.0 million at December 31, 2024, and by a decrease in noninterest bearing demand accounts, which decreased by $3.4 million from $32.7 million at December 31, 2024 to $29.2 million at September 30, 2025. At September 30, 2025, brokered deposits were $112.9 million or 17.5% of deposits and municipal deposits were $33.5 million or 5.2% of deposits. At September 30, 2025, uninsured deposits represented 9.2% of the Bank’s total deposits. Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $52.8 million, or 30.6%, due to paydown of existing borrowings. Short-term borrowings increased $5.5 million, or 18.6%, to $35.0 million at September 30, 2025 from $29.5 million at December 31, 2024, while long-term borrowings decreased $58.3 million, or 40.8%, to $84.4 million at September 30, 2025 from $142.7 million at December 31, 2024. Total borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank is $234.1 million of which $119.4 million has been advanced. Total stockholders’ equity increased $3.4 million to $140.7 million, primarily due to net income of $1.4 million and less unrealized losses related to available-for-sale securities of $1.7 million. At September 30, 2025, the Company’s ratio of average stockholders’ equity-to-total assets was 14.97%, compared to 13.99% at December 31, 2024. About Bogota Financial Corp.
