The Company reported a 46% increase in its net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025, to $2.5 million compared with net income of $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 was $7.2 million compared with net income of $5.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.40 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $0.27 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $1.16 for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $0.82 for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared an increase in its quarterly cash dividend to $0.08 per share, which will be paid on August 21, 2025 to stockholders of record as of August 7, 2025. "Our Community Banking strategy continues to produce strong financial results," stated John Fitzgerald, President and Chief Executive Officer of Magyar Bancorp. "Solid loan growth for the first nine months of our fiscal year, combined with prudent balance sheet management produced a 46% increase in net income year over year, and further expansion of our net interest margin on a linked quarter basis. Despite the market volatility during the April through June timeframe, our stock price increased over 17% during the quarter, and our performance was recognized by Keefe Bruyette & Woods who included us in their 2025 Honor Roll, comprised of elite, high performing banks with consistent earnings growth over the past decade. We are proud of this accomplishment, and feel Magyar is well positioned to continue to produce solid results as we head into the final quarter of our fiscal year." Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Net income increased $779 thousand, or 46.1%, to $2.5 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2025 compared with $1.7 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2024, from higher net interest income and other income, partially offset by higher provisions for credit loss, other expenses and income tax expense. The Company's net interest and dividend income increased $1.4 million, or 20.5%, to $8.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 from the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to a 33-basis point increase in the Company's net interest margin to 3.35% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from 3.02% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as well as a $78.4 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets between the periods. Interest and dividend income increased $1.7 million, or 13.5%, to $14.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $12.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to a 24-basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets to 5.74% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from 5.50% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as well as a $77.6 million, or 10.4%, increase in the average balance of net loans receivable between the periods. Interest expense increased $267 thousand, or 4.8%, to $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. An $85.5 million, or 12.4%, increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities accounted for the increase in interest expense between the periods. Partially offsetting the higher balance was a 22-basis point decrease in the cost of such liabilities to 3.02% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with 3.24% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The Company recorded a net provision for credit losses totaling $101 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with a net recovery of credit losses totaling $54 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The higher provision for credit losses resulted from growth in commercial real estate, residential mortgage and commercial business loans, partially offset by lower construction loan balances, which require higher provisions for credit loss. The Company recorded $3 thousand in net loan recoveries during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $1 thousand in net loan recoveries during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Other income increased $227 thousand, or 55.5%, to $636 thousand during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $409 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher income on bank owned life insurance, which increased $79 thousand, or 84.9%, to $172 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $93 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024 resulting from the restructure of policies totaling $7.9 million during the current fiscal year. In addition, the Company recorded higher service fee income, which increased $58 thousand, or 20.6%, to $340 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $282 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024 primarily from higher commercial loan prepayment charges and late charges on loans. Other expenses increased $184 thousand, or 3.6%, to $5.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to higher compensation and benefit expense, which increased $211 thousand, or 7.3%, to $3.1 million, due to higher medical benefits and incentive accruals as well as annual merit increases. The Company recorded tax expense of $1.0 million on pre-tax income of $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared with $501 thousand on pre-tax income of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in income tax expense was driven by higher pre-tax income as well as changes in deferred tax items that lowered the Company's tax expense during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 28.9% compared with 22.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Results from Operations for the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 Net income increased $2.0 million, or 38.1%, to $7.2 million during the nine-month period ended June 30, 2025 compared with $5.2 million for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2024 due to higher net interest income, lower provisions for credit loss, and higher other income, partially offset by higher other expenses and income tax expense. The Company's net interest and dividend income increased $2.5 million, or 12.2%, to $23.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from $21.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to a $67.0 million, or 7.6%, increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets between the periods as well as a 14-basis point increase in the Company's net interest margin to 3.30% for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from 3.16% for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. Interest and dividend income increased $4.6 million, or 12.9%, to $40.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from $35.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to a 27-basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets to 5.67% for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from 5.40% for the nine months ended June 30, 2024, as well as a $79.0 million, or 10.9%, increase in the average balance of net loans receivable. Interest expense increased $2.1 million, or 13.9%, to $16.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from $14.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $100.2 million, or 15.5%, to $746.9 million from higher money market account and time deposit account balances. Despite the growth in interest-bearing liabilities, the average cost decreased by four basis points to 3.03% for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 compared with 3.07% for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. A 29-basis point decrease in the cost of the Company's $494.2 million average balance in money market and interest-bearing checking account balances more than offset a 43-basis point increase in the Company's $166.7 million average balance of time deposits. The Company's provision for credit losses was $172 thousand for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $441 thousand for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The lower provision for credit losses resulted from lower construction loan commitments, which require higher provisions for credit loss, that more than offset growth in commercial real estate, residential mortgage and commercial business loans. The Company recorded $111 thousand in net loan recoveries during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $67 thousand in net loan recoveries during the nine months ended June 30, 2024. Other income increased $1.3 million, or 74.5%, to $2.9 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $1.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher gains from the sale of Small Business Administration 7(a) loans, which increased $506 thousand to $848 thousand for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from $342 thousand for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. In addition, the Company recorded higher gains from the sale of OREO, commercial loan prepayment charges, late charges on loans and income from its bank-owned life insurance policies. Other expenses increased $863 thousand, or 5.7%, to $16.0 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 from $15.2 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to higher compensation and benefit expense, which increased $663 thousand, or 7.6%, to $9.4 million, due to higher medical benefits and incentive accruals as well as annual merit increases. In addition, occupancy expense increased $222 thousand, or 9.2%, to $2.6 million, due to lease termination expenses related to the closure of the Bank's Bridgewater office in the Company's first fiscal quarter. The Company recorded tax expense of $2.9 million on pre-tax income of $10.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025, compared with $1.7 million on pre-tax income of $7.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The Company's effective tax rate for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 was 28.6% compared with 24.8% for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. Balance Sheet Comparison Total assets increased $35.6 million, or 3.7%, to $987.5 million at June 30, 2025 from $951.9 million at September 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to higher loans receivable, partially offset by lower cash and investment securities. Cash and interest-earning deposits with banks decreased $18.5 million, or 72.5% to $7.1 million at June 30, 2025 from $25.6 million at September 30, 2024 resulting from deployment of these funds into loans receivable during the nine months ended June 30, 2025. The Company's cash balance reflects seasonal deposit outflows from municipal accounts that historically return the following calendar quarter. At June 30, 2025, investment securities totaled $91.1 million, reflecting a decrease of $4.3 million, or 4.5%, from September 30, 2024. The decrease resulted from matured and called bonds totaling $8.5 million and payments from mortgage-backed securities totaling $5.2 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2025. Offsetting these decreases were purchases of mortgage-backed securities totaling $6.9 million and corporate notes totaling $2.5 million.

The Company's book value per share increased to $18.03 at June 30, 2025 from $16.98 at September 30, 2024.
