STROUDSBURG, PA / ACCESSWIRE / July 24, 2024 / ESSA Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:ESSA), the holding company for ESSA Bank & Trust (the "Bank"), a $2.2 billion asset financial institution providing full service commercial and retail banking, asset management and trust, and investment services in eastern Pennsylvania, today announced financial results for the fiscal third quarter and fiscal nine months periods ended June 30, 2024.
Net income was $3.9 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared with $4.4 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. For the nine months ended June 30, 2024, net income was $12.8 million, or $1.34 per diluted share, compared with $13.9 million, or $1.44 per diluted share, for the nine months ended June 30, 2023.
Gary S. Olson, President and CEO, commented: "The Company delivered another quarter of steady earnings and enhanced shareholder value by focusing on operating efficiently, maintaining asset strength, and managing the diversity and risk characteristics of our loan, deposit and investment portfolios.
"Commercial and residential lending activity generated significant year-over-year interest income growth in the third quarter and year to date periods. At the same time, higher interest rates have continued to pressure margins, particularly the higher cost of interest-bearing liabilities including borrowings and retail deposits.
"Generating and retaining retail deposits continues to be one of the Bank's key initiatives. We have selectively adjusted rates on interest bearing accounts and avoided chasing customers by offering the highest rates. We are committed to maintaining a desirable loan-to-deposit ratio.
"Expense management and asset quality are critical to supporting quality earnings. The 0.56% ratio of non-performing assets to total assets at June 30, 2024, reflected the ongoing strength of our credit and risk management practices, as did a reduction in the provision for credit losses based on anticipated risk.
"Noninterest expenses, including salaries and benefits, remained relatively flat year-over-year. We are committed to providing attractive compensation and benefits to retain an outstanding team of banking professionals. They have played a critical role in the Company's performance, and in providing the financial solutions to our valued customers."
