Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Consolidated Financial Statement Presentation |
|
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Bank and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary, the Service Corp. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
|
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the consolidated statements of financial condition and revenues and expenses for the periods then ended. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. |
|
A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change relates to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. While management uses all available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions in the Bank’s market area. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examinations. |
|
The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the consolidated statement of financial condition date of December 31, 2014 for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was conducted through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. |
|
Effective November 17, 2014, the Company changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31. The six month period ended December 31, 2014 is the Company’s transitional period for its change in fiscal year end. |
Comparability of Prior Year Financial Data, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Prior Period Adjustment |
|
During the Transition Period, we determined that income taxes for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were misstated by an aggregate of $122,000. The misstatements related to the calculation of deferred income taxes. Accordingly, a restatement adjustment was made, effective June 30, 2011, to reduce both deferred income tax assets and stockholders’ equity by $122,000. For purposes of the audited consolidated financial statements, the restatement is reflected in the opening balances of the earliest year presented. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
|
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and amounts due from depository institutions and interest-bearing deposits with banks with original maturities of three months or less. |
Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Securities |
|
Investments in debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity securities and reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of being sold in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses included in earnings. Debt and equity securities not classified as trading securities or as held to maturity securities are classified as available for sale securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains or losses, net of applicable income taxes, reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The Company had no trading or available for sale securities as of December 31, 2014, June 30, 2014 or June 30, 2013. |
|
Individual securities are considered impaired when their fair value is less than amortized cost. Management evaluates all securities with unrealized losses quarterly to determine if such impairments are “temporary” or “other-than-temporary” in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. Accordingly, the Company accounts for temporary impairments based upon a security’s classification as trading, available for sale or held to maturity. Temporary impairments on available for sale securities are recognized, on a tax-effected basis, through other comprehensive income (loss) with offsetting entries adjusting the carrying value of the security and the balance of deferred taxes. Temporary impairments of held to maturity securities are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements; however, information concerning the amount and duration of impairments on held to maturity securities is disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The carrying value of securities held in the trading portfolio is adjusted to fair value through earnings on a monthly basis. |
|
Other-than-temporary impairments on securities that the Company has decided to sell or will more likely than not be required to sell prior to the full recovery of their fair value to a level equal to or exceeding amortized cost are recognized in earnings. Otherwise, the other-than-temporary impairment is bifurcated into credit-related and noncredit-related components. The credit-related impairment generally represents the amount by which the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected on a debt security falls below its amortized cost. The noncredit-related component represents the remaining portion of the impairment not otherwise designated as credit-related. Credit-related other-than-temporary impairments are recognized in earnings while noncredit-related other-than-temporary impairments are recognized, net of deferred taxes, in other comprehensive income (loss). |
|
The Company reviews its investment portfolio on a quarterly basis for indications of impairment. This review includes analyzing the length of time and the extent to which the fair value of a security has been lower than the cost, and the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events which may influence the operations of the issuer. The Company also assesses its intent with regard to selling or holding each security as well as any conditions which may require the sale of security prior to the recovery of fair value to a level which equals or exceeds amortized cost. |
|
Discounts and premiums on securities are accreted/amortized to maturity by use of the level-yield method. Gain or loss on sales of securities is based on the specific identification method. |
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration of Risk |
|
The Bank’s lending activities are concentrated in loans secured by real estate located in the State of New Jersey. |
Loans and Leases Receivable, Lease Financing, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Loans Receivable |
|
Loans are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of an allowance for loan losses and any deferred fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct loan origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield (interest income) of the related loans. The Company is generally amortizing these amounts over the contractual life of the loan. |
|
For all classes of loans receivable, the accrual of interest is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or when management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing. Certain loans may remain on accrual status if they are in the process of collection and are either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Interest received on nonaccrual loans, including impaired loans, generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal. Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments. |
Loans and Leases Receivable, Allowance for Loan Losses Policy [Policy Text Block] | Allowance for Credit Losses |
|
The allowance for credit losses consists of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the statement of financial condition date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for unfunded lending commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in its unfunded loan commitments and is recorded in other liabilities, when required, on the consolidated statement of financial condition. The allowance for credit losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable that are deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management determines that the repayment of that amount is highly unlikely. Any subsequent recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan losses. Non-residential consumer loans are generally charged off no later than 120 days past due on a contractual basis, earlier in the event of bankruptcy, or if there is an amount deemed uncollectible. |
|
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 the Company’s 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, the 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. |
|
In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examinations. |
|
The allowance calculation methodology includes segregation of the total loan portfolio into segments. The Company’s loans receivable portfolio is comprised of the following segments: residential mortgage, commercial real estate, construction, commercial and industrial and consumer. Some segments of the Company’s loan receivable portfolio are further disaggregated into classes which allow management to more accurately monitor risk and performance. |
|
The residential mortgage loan segment is disaggregated into two classes: one-to-four family loans, which are primarily first liens, and home equity loans, which consist of first and second liens. The commercial real estate loan segment includes owner and non-owner occupied loans which have medium risk based on historical experience with these type of loans. The construction loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes: one-to-four family owner-occupied, which includes land loans, whereby the owner is known and there is less risk, and other, whereby the property is generally under development and tends to have more risk than the one-to-four family owner-occupied loans. The commercial and industrial loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers. The majority of commercial and industrial loans are secured by real estate and thus carry a lower risk than traditional commercial and industrial loans. The consumer loan segment consists primarily of installment loans and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts. |
|
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 as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers pools of loans by loan class. These pools of loans are evaluated for loss exposure based upon historical loss rates for each of these classes of loans, adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative risk factors include: |
|
1 | Lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collection, charge-off, and recovery practices. | |
2 | National, regional, and local economic and business conditions as well as the condition of various market segments, including the value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans. | |
3 | Nature and volume of the portfolio and terms of loans. | |
4 | Experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff. | |
5 | Volume and severity of past due, classified and nonaccrual loans as well as and other loan modifications. | |
6 | Quality of the Company’s loan review system, and the degree of oversight by the Company’s Board of Directors. | |
7 | Existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations. | |
8 | Effect of external factors, such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements. | |
|
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. |
|
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. |
Impaired Financing Receivable, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Impaired Loans |
|
Management evaluates individual loans in all of the loan segments (including loans in the residential mortgage and consumer segments) for possible impairment if the recorded investment in the loan is greater than $200,000 and if the loan is either in nonaccrual status or is risk rated Substandard or worse or has been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. 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. |
|
Loans whose terms are modified are classified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) if the Company grants such borrowers concessions and it is deemed that those borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions granted under a TDR generally involve a reduction in interest rate below market rate given the associated credit risk, or an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date or capitalization of interest and/or escrow. Nonaccrual TDRs are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for six consecutive months after modification. Loans classified as TDRs are designated as impaired until they are ultimately repaid in full or foreclosed and sold. The nature and extent of impairment of TDRs, including those which experienced a subsequent default, is considered in the determination of an appropriate level of allowance for loan losses. |
|
Once the determination has been made that a loan is impaired, impairment is measured by comparing the recorded investment in the loan to one of the following: (a) the present value of expected cash flows (discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate), (b) the loan’s observable market price or (c) the fair value of collateral adjusted for expected selling costs. The method is selected on a loan by loan basis with management primarily utilizing the fair value of collateral method. |
|
The estimated fair values of the real estate collateral are determined primarily through third-party appraisals. When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary. This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property. Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value. The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property. |
|
The estimated fair values of the non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging schedules or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets. |
|
The evaluation of the need and amount of the allowance for impaired loans and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis. The Company’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition. |
Real Estate Owned, Valuation Allowance, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”) |
|
Other real estate owned represents real estate acquired through formal foreclosure or by taking possession of the real estate and is initially recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling costs establishing a new cost basis. Write-downs required at the time of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan losses establishing a new cost basis. Thereafter, the Company maintains an allowance for decreases in the properties’ estimated fair value, through charges to earnings. Such charges are included in other non-interest expense along with any additional property maintenance. OREO totaled $1,283,000, $409,000 and $530,000, respectively, at December 31, 2014, June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Premises and Equipment |
|
Premises and equipment are comprised of land, at cost, and buildings, building improvements, furnishings and equipment and leasehold improvements, at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization charges are computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: |
|
| | Years |
Building and improvements | | May-50 |
Furnishings and equipment | | 3 – 7 |
Leasehold improvements | | Shorter of useful life or term of lease |
|
Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized to the premises and equipment account. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in the year incurred. Rental income is netted against occupancy costs in the consolidated statements of income. |
Securities Owned Not Readily Marketable, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Federal Home Loan Bank Stock |
|
Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system to hold restricted stock of its district’s FHLB according to a predetermined formula based on advances available and outstanding. The restricted stock is carried at cost. Management’s determination of whether these shares are impaired is based on an assessment of the ultimate recoverability of its cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB. |
|
Management believes no impairment charge was necessary related to the FHLB restricted stock during the six months ended December 31, 2014 or the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 or 2013. |
Policyholder Accounts, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Bank Owned Life Insurance |
|
Bank owned life insurance is carried at net cash surrender value. The change in the net cash surrender value is recorded as a component of non-interest income. |
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, Pensions, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Defined Benefit Plans |
|
In accordance with applicable guidance prescribed in FASB ASC 715, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits”, the Company recognizes the over-funded or under-funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in the consolidated statement of financial condition, with changes in the funded status recorded through other comprehensive income (loss) in the year in which those changes occur. The funded status of the plan is calculated using actuarial concepts which involve making assumptions regarding discount rate, mortality, expected rate of compensation increases and others. |
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block] | Stock-based Compensation Plans |
|
In accordance with FASB ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, the Company recognizes compensation expense for the total of the fair value of all share-based compensation awards granted over the requisite service periods. In addition, ASC 718 requires that cash flow activity be reported on a financing rather than an operating cash flow basis for the benefits, if any, of realized tax deductions in excess of previously recognized tax benefits on compensation expense. |
Advertising Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Advertising |
|
The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as incurred. |
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Income Taxes Expense (Benefit) |
|
The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return with the MHC. Federal income taxes are allocated based on the contribution of their respective income or loss to the consolidated income tax return. Separate state income tax returns are filed. |
|
Federal and state income taxes have been provided in these consolidated financial statements on the basis of reported income (loss). The amounts reflected on the income tax returns differ from these provisions due principally to temporary differences in the reporting of certain items of income and expense for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes. Deferred income taxes are recorded to recognize such temporary differences. |
|
The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, formerly FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN48”). ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognizing, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the Company’s evaluation under ASC 740, no significant income tax uncertainties have been identified. Therefore, the Company recognized no adjustment for unrecognized income tax benefits for the six months ended December 31, 2014 or the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the consolidated statement of income (loss). The Company did not recognize any interest and penalties for the six months ended December 31, 2014 or the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The tax years subject to examination by the taxing authorities are the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, 2012, and 2011. |
Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Exposure, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Off-Balance Sheet Credit-Related Financial Instruments |
|
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into commitments to extend credit, including commitments under lines of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. |
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Earnings (Loss) per Share |
|
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, exclusive of the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) shares not yet committed to be released. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding to include the effect of contracts or securities exercisable (such as stock options) or which could be converted into common stock, if dilutive, using the treasury stock method. Diluted earnings (loss) per share did not differ from basic earnings (loss) per share for the six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 (unaudited) or the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, as the 275,410 weighted average number of outstanding stock options for the six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 (unaudited) or the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, were all anti-dilutive and the Company incurred a net loss during the year ended June 30, 2013. |
Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) |
|
Other comprehensive income (loss) includes benefit plans amounts recognized under ASC 715, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits”. This item of other comprehensive income (loss) reflects, net of tax, prior service costs and unrealized net losses that had not been recognized in the consolidated financial statements prior to the implementation of ASC 715 along with actuarial losses arising during the current period. |
Interest Expense, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Interest Rate Risk |
|
The Bank is principally engaged in the business of attracting deposits from the general public and using these deposits, together with other funds, to purchase securities and to make loans primarily secured by real estate. The potential for interest-rate risk exists as a result of the generally shorter duration of the Bank’s interest-sensitive liabilities compared to the generally longer duration of its interest-sensitive assets. In a rising rate environment, liabilities will generally reprice faster than assets, thereby reducing net interest income. For this reason, management regularly monitors the maturity structure of the Bank’s assets and liabilities in order to measure its level of interest-rate risk and to plan for future volatility. |
