(the “Company”), its wholly owned subsidiary, ESSA Bank & Trust (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, ESSACOR Inc.; Pocono Investments Company; ESSA Advisory Services, LLC; Integrated Financial Corporation; and Integrated Abstract Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of Integrated Financial Corporation. The primary purpose of the Company is to act as a holding company for the Bank. On November 6, 2014, the Company converted its status from a savings and loan holding company to a bank holding company. In addition, the Bank converted from a Pennsylvania-chartered savings association to a Pennsylvania-chartered savings bank. The Bank’s primary business consists of the taking of deposits and granting of loans to customers generally in Monroe, Northampton, Lehigh, Delaware, Chester, Montgomery, Lackawanna, and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania. The Bank is subject to regulation and supervision by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). The investment in the Bank on the parent company’s financial statements is carried at the parent company’s equity in the underlying net assets. ESSACOR, Inc. is a Pennsylvania corporation that has been used to purchase properties at tax sales that represent collateral for delinquent loans of the Bank and is currently inactive. Pocono Investment Company is a Delaware corporation formed as an investment company subsidiary to hold and manage certain investments, including certain intellectual property. ESSA Advisory Services, LLC is a Pennsylvania limited liability company owned 100 percent by ESSA Bank & Trust. ESSA Advisory Services, LLC is a full-service insurance benefits consulting company offering group services such as health insurance, life insurance, short-term and long-term disability, dental, vision, and 401(k) retirement planning as well as individual health products. Integrated Financial Corporation is a Pennsylvania corporation that provided investment advisory services to the general public and is currently inactive. Integrated Abstract Incorporated is a Pennsylvania corporation that provided title insurance services and is currently inactive. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods and are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the three month period ended December 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2018.

The amendments in this Update shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beg For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Additionally, in the period of adoption, an entity should provide disclosures about a change in accounting principle. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Such system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, type and market value of collateral and financial condition of the borrowers. Specific loan loss allowances are established for identified losses based on a review of such information. A loan evaluated for impairment is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All loans identified as impaired are evaluated independently. The Company does not aggregate such loans for evaluation purposes. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by 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. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential mortgage loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are part of a larger relationship that is impaired, or are classified as a troubled debt restructuring. A loan is considered to be a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) loan when the Company grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider because of the borrower’s financial condition. Such concessions include the reduction of interest rates, forgiveness of principal or interest, or other modifications of interest rates that are less than the current market rate for new obligations with similar risk. TDR loans that are in compliance with their modified terms and that yield a market rate at the time of modification may be removed from TDR status after one year of performance. The following tables include the recorded investment and unpaid principal balances for impaired loans with the associated allowance amount at the dates indicated, if applicable (in thousands): Recorded Investment Unpaid Principal Balance Associated Allowance December 31, 2017 With no specific allowance recorded: Real estate loans Residential $ 4,388 $ 5,833 $ — Construction — — — Commercial 6,868 8,901 — Commercial 1,234 1,477 — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit 221 305 — Auto loans 267 436 — Other 29 35 — Total 13,007 16,987 — With an allowance recorded: Real estate loans Residential 1,235 1,435 144 Construction — — — Commercial 19 97 16 Commercial 1 13 5 Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit 5 5 1 Auto loans 508 526 215 Other — — — Total 1,768 2,076 381 Total: Real estate loans Residential 5,623 7,268 144 Construction — — — Commercial 6,887 8,998 16 Commercial 1,235 1,490 5 Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit 226 310 1 Auto loans 775 962 215 Other 29 35 — Total Impaired Loans $ 14,775 $ 19,063 $ 381 Recorded Investment Unpaid Principal Balance Associated Allowance September 30, 2017 With no specific allowance recorded: Real Estate Loans Residential $ 4,392 $ 5,730 $ — Construction — — — Commercial 7,191 9,396 — Commercial 1,385 1,575 — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit 176 258 — Auto Loans 123 237 — Other 30 36 — Total 13,297 17,232 — With an allowance recorded: Real Estate Loans Residential 1,810 2,264 154 Construction — — — Commercial 20 1,193 19 Commercial — — — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit — — — Auto Loans 449 468 172 Other — — — Total 2,279 3,925 345 Total: Real Estate Loans Residential 6,202 7,994 154 Construction — — — Commercial 7,211 10,589 19 Commercial 1,385 1,575 — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit 176 258 — Auto Loans 572 705 172 Other 30 36 — Total Impaired Loans $ 15,576 $ 21,157 $ 345 The following tables represent the average recorded investments in the impaired loans and the related amount of interest recognized during the time within the period that the impaired loans were impaired (in thousands): For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2017 2016 Average Recorded Investment Average Recorded Investment Interest Income Recognized Interest Income Recognized With no specific allowance recorded: Real estate loans Residential $ 4,429 $ 6,526 $ 10 $ 11 Construction — — — — Commercial 7,006 10,564 72 105 Commercial 1,289 1,693 27 33 Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit 206 317 — — Auto loans 137 135 1 1 Other 10 8 — — Total 13,077 19,243 110 150 With an allowance recorded: Real estate loans Residential 1,527 2,066 — — Construction — — — — Commercial 20 348 — — Commercial — 19 — — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit 2 2 — — Auto loans 262 215 — 4 Other — — — — Total 1,811 2,650 — 4 Total: Real estate loans Residential 5,956 8,592 10 11 Construction — — — — Commercial 7,026 10,912 72 105 Commercial 1,289 1,712 27 33 Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit 208 319 — — Auto loans 399 350 1 5 Other 10 8 — — Total Impaired Loans $ 14,888 $ 21,893 $ 110 $ 154 The Company uses a ten-point internal risk-rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six categories are considered not criticized and are aggregated as Pass-rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are fundamentally sound yet exhibit potentially unacceptable credit risk or deteriorating trends or characteristics which, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans more than 90 days past due are considered Substandard. Loans in the Doubtful category have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified as Substandard with the added characteristic that their weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loans in the Loss category are considered uncollectible and of little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. Certain residential real estate loans, construction loans, home equity loans and lines of credit, auto loans and other consumer loans are underwritten and structured using standardized criteria and characteristics, primarily payment performance, and are normally risk rated and monitored collectively on a monthly basis. These are typically loans to individuals in the consumer categories and are delineated as either performing or non-performing. To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Bank has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as bankruptcy, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. The Bank’s Commercial Loan Officers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating recommendation for the loans in their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis. The Bank’s Commercial Loan Officers perform an annual review of all commercial relationships $750,000 or greater. Confirmation of the appropriate risk grade is included in the review on an ongoing basis. The Bank engages an external consultant to conduct loan reviews on at least a semi-annual basis. Generally, the external consultant reviews commercial relationships greater than $1,000,000 and/or all criticized relationships. Detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, are performed on loans classified as Substandard on a quarterly basis. Loans in the Special Mention and Substandard categories that are collectively evaluated for impairment are given separate consideration in the determination of the allowance. The following tables present the classes of the loan portfolio summarized by the aggregate Pass and the criticized categories of Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful or Loss within the internal risk rating system at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 (in thousands): Pass Special Mention Substandard Doubtful or Loss Total December 31, 2017 Commercial real estate loans $ 344,891 $ 2,144 $ 9,075 $ — $ 356,110 Commercial 47,642 12 1,096 — 48,750 Obligations of states and political subdivisions 55,555 — — — 55,555 Total $ 448,088 $ 2,156 $ 10,171 $ — $ 460,415 Pass Special Mention Substandard Doubtful or Loss Total September 30, 2017 Commercial real estate loans $ 300,554 $ 3,376 $ 14,393 $ — $ 318,323 Commercial 40,996 32 3,101 — 44,129 Obligations of states and political subdivisions 58,079 — — — 58,079 Total $ 399,629 $ 3,408 $ 17,494 $ — $ 420,531 All other loans are underwritten and structured using standardized criteria and characteristics, primarily payment performance, and are normally risk rated and monitored collectively on a monthly basis. These are typically loans to individuals in the consumer categories and are delineated as either performing or non-performing. The following tables present the risk ratings in the consumer categories of performing and non-performing loans at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 (in thousands): Performing Non- performing Purchased Credit Impaired Total December 31, 2017 Real estate loans: Residential $ 577,708 $ 6,733 $ — $ 584,441 Construction 4,269 — — 4,269 Home equity loans and lines of credit 45,274 327 324 45,925 Auto loans 187,616 794 — 188,410 Other 2,675 33 — 2,708 Total $ 817,542 $ 7,887 $ 324 $ 825,753 Performing Non-performing Purchased Impaired Credit Total September 30, 2017 Real estate loans: Residential $ 580,116 $ 6,592 $ — $ 586,708 Construction 3,097 — — 3,097 Home equity loans and lines of credit 45,576 313 330 46,219 Auto loans 185,910 736 — 186,646 Other 2,807 38 — 2,845 Total $ 817,506 $ 7,679 $ 330 $ 825,515 The Company further monitors the performance and credit quality of the loan portfolio by analyzing the age of the portfolio as determined by the length of time a recorded payment is past due. The following tables present the classes of the loan portfolio summarized by the aging categories of performing loans and nonaccrual loans as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 (in thousands): 31-60 Days 61-90 Days Greater than 90 Days Past Due and Total Purchased Credit Impaired Total Current Past Due Past Due Accruing Non­accrual Past Due Accruing Non­accrual Loans December 31, 2017 Real estate loans: Residential $ 574,224 $ 2,490 $ 994 $ — $ 6,733 $ 10,217 $ — $ — $ 584,441 Construction 4,269 — — — — - — — 4,269 Commercial 349,686 146 103 — 2,319 2,568 467 3,389 356,110 Commercial 48,367 — — — 176 176 — 207 48,750 Obligations of states and political subdivisions 55,555 — — — — — — — 55,555 Home equity loans and lines of credit 45,215 51 8 — 327 386 — 324 45,925 Auto loans 186,765 788 63 — 794 1,645 — — 188,410 Other 2,657 15 3 — 33 51 — — 2,708 Total $ 1,266,738 $ 3,490 $ 1,171 $ — $ 10,382 $ 15,043 $ 467 $ 3,920 $ 1,286,168 31-60 Days 61-90 Days Greater than 90 Days Past Due and Total Purchased Credit Impaired Total Current Past Due Past Due Accruing Non­accrual Past Due Accruing Non­accrual Loans September 30, 2017 Real estate loans: Residential $ 577,034 $ 2,661 $ 421 $ — $ 6,592 $ 9,674 $ — $ — $ 586,708 Construction 3,097 — — — — — — — 3,097 Commercial 312,098 172 — — 2,278 2,450 612 3,163 318,323 Commercial 43,298 18 — — 530 548 — 283 44,129 Obligations of states and political subdivisions 58,079 — — — — — — — 58,079 Home equity loans and lines of credit 45,460 101 15 — 313 429 — 330 46,219 Auto loans 185,247 631 32 — 736 1,399 — — 186,646 Other 2,789 14 4 — 38 56 — — 2,845 Total $ 1,227,102 $ 3,597 $ 472 $ — $ 10,487 $ 14,556 $ 612 $ 3,776 $ 1,246,046 The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level necessary to absorb loan losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable. Management, in determining the allowance for loan losses, considers the losses inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of loan activities, along with the general economic and real estate market conditions. The allowance for loan losses consists of two elements: (1) an allocated allowance, which comprises allowances established on specific loans and class allowances based on historical loss experience and current trends, and (2) an allocated allowance based on general economic conditions and other risk factors in our markets and portfolios. We maintain a loan review system, which allows for a periodic review of our loan portfolio and the early identification of potential impaired loans. Such system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, type and market value of collateral and financial condition of the borrowers. General loan loss allowances are based upon a combination of factors including, but not limited to, actual loan loss experience, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, management’s judgment and losses which are probable and reasonably estimable. The allowance is increased through provisions charged against current earnings and recoveries of previously charged-off loans. Loans that are determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance. While management uses available information to recognize probable and reasonably estimable loan losses, future loss provisions may be necessary, based on changing economic conditions. Payments received on impaired loans generally are either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal. The allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2017 was maintained at a level that represents management’s best estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio, and such losses were both probable and reasonably estimable. In addition, the FDIC and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities, as an integral part of their examination process, have periodically reviewed our allowance for loan losses. The banking regulators may require that we recognize additions to the allowance based on its analysis and review of information available to it at the time of its examination. Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis using a defined, consistently applied process in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the allowance for loan losses (“ALL”). When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ALL. The following table summarizes changes in the primary segments of the ALL for the three month periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands): Home Obligations of Equity States and Loans and Real Estate Loans Commercial Political Lines of Other Residential Construction Commercial Loans Subdivisions Credit Auto Loans Loans Unallocated Total ALL balance at September 30, 2017 $ 3,878 $ 23 $ 1,758 $ 987 $ 248 $ 470 $ 1,836 $ 21 $ 144 $ 9,365 Charge-offs (43 ) — (1 ) (133 ) — — (536 ) (6 ) — (719 ) Recoveries 3 — 2 10 — 1 170 1 — 187 Provision (69 ) 10 560 190 (35 ) (22 ) 492 5 (131 ) 1,000 ALL balance at December 31, 2017 $ 3,769 $ 33 $ 2,319 $ 1,054 $ 213 $ 449 $ 1,962 $ 21 $ 13 $ 9,833 ALL balance at September 30, 2016 $ 4,426 $ 13 $ 852 $ 882 $ 215 $ 455 $ 1,880 $ 25 $ 308 $ 9,056 Charge-offs (76 ) — (91 ) (19 ) — — (517 ) (4 ) — (707 ) Recoveries 2 — 10 — — 1 228 2 — 243 Provision 98 10 24 102 19 (15 ) 471 2 39 750 ALL balance at December 31, 2016 $ 4,450 $ 23 $ 795 $ 965 $ 234 $ 441 $ 2,062 $ 25 $ 347 $ 9,342 Acquired loans are recorded at fair value on their purchase date without a carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. The Company allocated increased provisions to commercial real estate loans due primarily to increased loan balances for the three month period ended December 31, 2017. The Company allocated increased provisions to commercial loans due primarily to increase loan balances and charge off activity for the three month period ended December 31, 2017. The Company allocated decreased provisions to commercial real estate loans for the three month period ended December 31, 2016 due to declining loss experience. The Company allocated increased provisions to commercial loans for the period ended December 31, 2016 due to increased balances and impairment evaluation in those segments. The following table summarizes the primary segments of the ALL, segregated into two categories, the amount required for loans individually evaluated for impairment and the amount required for loans collectively evaluated for impairment as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 (in thousands): Home Obligations of Equity States and Loans and Real Estate Loans Commercial Political Lines of Other Residential Construction Commercial Loans Subdivisions Credit Auto Loans Loans Unallocated Total Individually evaluated for impairment $ 144 $ — $ 16 $ 5 $ — $ 1 $ 215 $ — $ — $ 381 Collectively evaluated for impairment 3,625 33 2,303 1,049 213 448 1,747 21 13 9,452 ALL balance at December 31, 2017 $ 3,769 $ 33 $ 2,319 $ 1,054 $ 213 $ 449 $ 1,962 $ 21 $ 13 $ 9,833 Individually evaluated for impairment $ 154 $ — $ 19 $ — $ — $ — $ 172 $ — $ — $ 345 Collectively evaluated for impairment 3,724 23 1,739 987 248 470 1,664 21 144 9,020 ALL balance at September 30, 2017 $ 3,878 $ 23 $ 1,758 $ 987 $ 248 $ 470 $ 1,836 $ 21 $ 144 $ 9,365 The allowance for loan losses is based on estimates, and actual losses will vary from current estimates. Management believes that the granularity of the homogeneous pools and the related historical loss ratios and other qualitative factors, as well as the consistency in the application of assumptions, result in an ALL that is representative of the risk found in the components of the portfolio at any given date. Despite the above allocations, the allowance for loan losses is general in nature and is available to absorb losses from any loan segment. The following is a summary of troubled debt restructuring granted during the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 (dollars in thousands): For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2017 Number of Contracts Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Troubled Debt Restructurings Real estate loans: Residential 2 $ 243 $ 240 Construction — — — Commercial — — — Commercial — — — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit — — — Auto loans — — — Other — — — Total 2 $ 243 $ 240 For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2016 Number of Contracts Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Troubled Debt Restructurings Real estate loans: Residential 2 $ 259 $ 259 Construction — — — Commercial — — — Commercial — — — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — — Home equity loans and lines of credit — — — Auto loans — — — Other — — — Total 2 $ 259 $ 259 The two new troubled debt restructurings granted for the three months ended December 31, 2017, totaled $240,000 and were granted interest rate and principal concessions.

Equity Incentive Plan	9 . Equity Incentive Plan The Company previously maintained the ESSA Bancorp, Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provided for a total of 2,377,326 shares of common stock for issuance upon the grant or exercise of awards. Of the shares that were available under the Plan, 1,698,090 were available to be issued in connection with the exercise of stock options and 679,236 were available to be issued as restricted stock. The Plan allowed for the granting of non-qualified stock options (“NSOs”), incentive stock options (“ISOs”), and restricted stock. Options granted under the plan were granted at no less than the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. As of the effective date of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (detailed below), no further grants will be made under the Plan and forfeitures of outstanding awards under the Plan will be added to the shares available under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company replaced the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan with the ESSA Bancorp, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) which was approved by shareholders on March 3, 2016. The 2016 Plan provides for a total of 250,000 shares of common stock for issuance upon the grant or exercise of awards. The 2016 Plan allows for the granting of restricted stock, restricted stock units, ISOs and NSOs. Certain officers, employees and outside directors were granted in aggregate 1,140,469 NSOs; 317,910 ISOs; and 590,320 shares of restricted stock on May 23, 2008. Certain officers were granted in aggregate 30,000 shares of restricted stock on April 1, 2013, 19,880 shares of restricted stock on July 22, 2014, 21,843 shares of restricted stock on May 20, 2015, 23,491 shares of restricted stock on March 4, 2016, 20,675 shares of restricted stock on December 13, 2016, 3,296 shares of restricted stock on March 29, 2017, 1,250 shares of restricted stock on October 23, 2017 and 24,278 of restricted stock on December 6, 2017. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company expenses the fair value of all share-based compensation grants over the requisite service periods. The Company classifies share-based compensation for employees and outside directors within “Compensation and employee benefits” in the Consolidated Statement of Income to correspond with the same line item as compensation paid. Stock options vest over a five-year service period and expire ten years after the grant date. The Company recognized compensation expense for the fair values of these awards, which vested on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. The 2013 restricted stock shares vested over an 18 month service period. The 2014 restricted shares vest over a 39 month service period. The 2015 restricted shares vest over a 40 month service period. The March 4, 2016 restricted shares vest over a 43 month service period. The December 13, 2016 restricted shares vest over a 46 month service period. The March 29, 2017 restricted shares vest over 42 months for 1,296 shares and over 18 months for 2,000 shares. The October 23, 2017 restricted shares vest over a 23 month service period. The December 6, 2017 restricted shares vest over a 46 month service period. The product of the number of shares granted and the grant date market price of the Company’s common stock determines the fair value of restricted shares under the Company’s restricted stock plan. For the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded $80,273 and $66,006 of share-based compensation expense, respectively, comprised of restricted stock expense. Expected future compensation expense relating to the restricted shares issued in 2015, at December 31, 2017 is $61,000 over the remaining vesting period of 0.75 years. Expected future compensation expense relating to the restricted shares issued in March 2016, at December 31, 2017 is $149,000 over the remaining vesting period of 1.75 years. Expected future compensation expense relating to the restricted shares issued in December 2016, at December 31, 2017 is $246,000 over the remaining vesting period of 2.75 years. Expected future compensation expense relating to the restricted shares (1,296) issued in March 2017, at December 31, 2017 is $15,000 over the remaining vesting period of 2.75 years. Expected future compensation expense relating to the restricted shares (2,000) issued in March 2017, at December 31, 2017 is $14,000 over the remaining vesting period of 0.75 years. Expected future compensation expense relating to the restricted shares issued in October 2017, at December 31, 2017 is $17,000 over the remaining vesting period of 1.75 years. Expected future compensation expense relating to the restricted shares issued in December 2017, at December 31, 2017 is $75,000 over the remaining vesting period of 3.75 years.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurement	10. Fair Value Measurement The following disclosures show the hierarchal disclosure framework associated within the level of pricing observations utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The definition of fair value maintains the exchange price notion in earlier definitions of fair value but focuses on the exit price of the asset or liability. The exit price is the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability adjusted for certain inherent risks and restrictions. Expanded disclosures are also required about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The following tables present information about the Company’s securities, derivatives, other real estate owned, impaired loans and mortgage servicing rights measured at fair value as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Bank to determine such fair value: Fair Value Measurement at December 31, 2017 Fair Value Measurements Utilized for the Company’s Financial Assets (in thousands): Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Balances as of December 31, 2017 Securities available-for-sale measured on a recurring basis Mortgage backed securities $ — $ 237,992 $ — $ 237,992 Obligations of states and political subdivisions — 64,806 — 64,806 U.S. government agencies — 17,196 — 17,196 Corporate obligations — 40,872 7,826 48,698 Other debt securities — 22,485 — 22,485 Equity securities-financial services 25 — — 25 Total debt and equity securities $ 25 $ 383,351 $ 7,826 $ 391,202 Derivatives $ — $ 1,649 $ — $ 1,649 Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis: Foreclosed real estate $ — $ — $ 1,365 $ 1,365 Impaired loans $ — $ — $ 14,394 $ 14,394 Mortgage servicing rights $ — $ — $ 227 $ 227 Fair Value Measurement at September 30, 2017 Fair Value Measurements Utilized for the Company’s Financial Assets (in thousands): Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Balances as of September 30, 2017 Securities available-for-sale measured on a recurring basis Mortgage backed securities $ — $ 233,823 $ — $ 233,823 Obligations of states and political subdivisions — 65,358 — 65,358 U.S. government agencies — 18,671 — 18,671 Corporate obligations — 41,518 7,224 48,742 Other debt securities — 23,833 0 23,833 Equity securities-financial services 25 — — 25 Total debt and equity securities $ 25 $ 383,203 $ 7,224 $ 390,452 Derivatives $ — $ 1,215 $ — $ 1,215 Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis: Foreclosed real estate $ — $ — $ 1,424 $ 1,424 Impaired loans $ — $ — $ 15,231 $ 15,231 Mortgage Servicing rights $ — $ — $ 232 $ 232 The following tables present a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level III investments for the three month periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands). Fair Value Measurement Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level III) Three Months Ended December 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Beginning balance $ 7,224 $ 7,485 Purchases, sales, issuances, settlements, net 500 756 Total unrealized gain (loss): Included in earnings — — Included in other comprehensive loss 102 (3 ) Transfers in and/or out of Level III — — $ 7,826 $ 8,238 Each financial asset and liability is identified as having been valued according to a specified level of input, 1, 2 or 3. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy, within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls, has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset. The measurement of fair value should be consistent with one of the following valuation techniques: market approach, income approach, and/or cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). For example, valuation techniques consistent with the market approach often use market multiples derived from a set of comparables. Multiples might lie in ranges with a different multiple for each comparable. The selection of where within the range the appropriate multiple falls requires judgment, considering factors specific to the measurement (qualitative and quantitative). Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach include matrix pricing. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique used principally to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on a security’s relationship to other benchmark quoted securities. Most of the securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quoted market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. Securities reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs are limited to actively traded equity securities whose market price is readily available from the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ exchange. A few securities are valued using Level 3 inputs, all of these are classified as available for sale and are reported at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Mortgage servicing rights are also valued by an independent pricing service. Foreclosed real estate is measured at fair value, less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. Income and expenses from operations and changes in valuation allowance are included in the net expenses from foreclosed real estate. Impaired loans are reported at fair value utilizing level three inputs. For these loans, a review of the collateral is conducted and an appropriate allowance for loan losses is allocated to the loan. At December 31, 2017, 166 impaired loans with a carrying value of $14.8 million were reduced by specific valuation allowance totaling $381,000 resulting in a net fair value of $14.4 million based on Level 3 inputs. At September 30, 2017, 164 impaired loans with a carrying value of $15.6 million were reduced by a specific valuation totaling $345,000 resulting in a net fair value of $15.2 million based on Level 3 inputs.

Fair value is defined as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. If a quoted market price is available for a financial instrument, the fair value would be calculated based upon the market price per trading unit of the instrument. If no readily available market exists, the fair value for financial instruments should be based upon management’s judgment regarding current economic conditions, interest rate risk, expected cash flows, future estimated losses, and other factors as determined through various option pricing formulas or simulation modeling. As many of these assumptions result from judgments made by management based upon estimates which are inherently uncertain, the resulting values may not be indicative of the amount realizable in the sale of a particular financial instrument. In addition, changes in the assumptions on which the values are based may have a significant impact on the resulting estimated values. As certain assets and liabilities, such as deferred tax assets, premises and equipment, and many other operational elements of the Bank, are not considered financial instruments but have value, this fair value of financial instruments would not represent the full market value of the Company. The Company employed simulation modeling in determining the fair value of financial instruments for which quoted market prices were not available based upon the following assumptions: Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accrued Interest Receivable, Short-Term Borrowings, Advances by Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance, and Accrued Interest Payable The fair value approximates the current book value. Bank-Owned Life Insurance The fair value is equal to the cash surrender value of the Bank-owned life insurance. Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities Available for Sale and Regulatory Stock The fair value of investment and mortgage-backed securities available for sale is equal to the available quoted market price. If no quoted market price is available, fair value is estimated using the quoted market price for similar securities. Since the Regulatory stock is not actively traded on a secondary market and held exclusively by member financial institutions, the fair market value approximates the carrying amount. For certain securities which are not traded in active markets or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations are adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, and such adjustments are generally based on available market evidence (Level 3). In the absence of such evidence, management’s best estimate is used. Management’s best estimate consists of both internal and external support on certain Level 3 investments. Internal cash flow models using a present value formula that includes assumptions market participants would use along with indicative exit pricing obtained from broker/dealers (where available) are used to support fair values of certain Level 3 investments, if applicable. Loans Receivable, Net The fair values of loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Mortgage Servicing Rights The Company utilizes a third party provider to estimate the fair value of certain loan servicing rights. Fair value for the purpose of this measurement is defined as the amount at which the asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Derivatives Fair values of interest rate cap and interest rate swap contracts are based on dealer quotes. Deposits (including Certificates of Deposit) The fair values disclosed for demand, savings, and money market deposit accounts are valued at the amount payable on demand as of quarter-end. Fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies contractual costs currently being offered in the existing portfolio to current market rates being offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Other Borrowings Fair values for other borrowings are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies contractual costs currently being offered in the existing portfolio to current market rates being offered for other borrowings of similar remaining maturities. Commitments to Extend Credit These financial instruments are generally not subject to sale, and fair values are not readily available. The carrying value, represented by the net deferred fee arising from the unrecognized commitment, and the fair value, determined by discounting the remaining contractual fee over the term of the commitment using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar credit risk, are not considered material for disclosure.

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivatives and Hedging Activities	12. Derivatives and Hedging Activities Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to certain variable rate borrowings. Fair Values of Derivative Instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheet The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 (in thousands). Fair Values of Derivative Instruments Asset Derivatives As of December 31, 2017 As of September 30, 2017 Balance Sheet Location Fair Value Balance Sheet Location Fair Value Derivatives designated as hedging instruments Interest Rate Products Other Assets $ 1,649 Other Assets $ 1,215 Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest income and expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company has entered into interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed payments. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had three interest rate swaps with a notional principal amount of $75.0 million associated with the Company’s cash outflows associated with various FHLB advances. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings), net of tax, and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings. The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged transactions. The Company did not recognize any hedge ineffectiveness in earnings during the period ended December 31, 2017. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivatives that will be reclassified to interest income/expense as interest payments are made/received on the Company’s variable-rate assets/liabilities. During the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company had $23,000 of gains reclassified to interest expense. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $0 will be reclassified as a decrease in interest expense. The tables below present the pre-tax net gains (losses) of the Company’s cash flow hedges for the three month periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and where they were recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income, (in thousands).

The Company also has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well / adequately capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements. As of December 31, 2017 the Company had no derivatives in a net liability position and was not required to post collateral against its obligations under these agreements. If the Company had breached any of these provisions at December 31, 2017, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at the termination value.

Contingent Liabilities	13. Contingent Liabilities Legal Proceedings The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of Management, the resolution of these legal actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. The Bank was named as the defendant in an action commenced on September 13, 2016 by one plaintiff. The plaintiff alleges that the Bank repossessed motor vehicles, sold the vehicles and sought to collect deficiency balances in a manner that did not comply with the notice requirements of the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”). The plaintiff seeks to pursue the action as a class action on behalf of the named plaintiff and other similarly situated plaintiffs who had their automobiles repossessed and seek to recover damages under the UCC. The Bank denies the plaintiff’s allegations. The parties attended a mediation in October, 2017 where they reached an agreement to resolve the claims asserted against the Bank on a class wide basis. The terms of the settlement calls for the Bank to make a payment of $1,325,000 to the plaintiffs. The Bank’s insurance carrier will cover the payment made by the Bank in excess of a $125,000 retention. The court has entered an order preliminarily approving the settlement. The court has set a final approval hearing for April 2018. The Bank was named as a defendant in an action commenced on December 8, 2016 by one plaintiff who will also seek to pursue this action as a class action on behalf of the entire class of people similarly situated. The plaintiff alleges that a bank previously acquired by ESSA Bancorp, Inc., in the process of making loans, received unearned fees and kickbacks in violation of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act. In an order dated January 29, 2018, the court granted the Bank’s motion to dismiss the case. The plaintiff still has the opportunity to appeal the court’s ruling.

Income Taxes	14. Income Taxes The reconciliation of the federal statutory rate and the Company’s effective income tax rate is as follows (in thousands): For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Amount % of Pretax Income Amount % of Pretax Income Provision at statutory rate $ 595 24.3 % $ 795 34.0 % Income from bank-owned life insurance (62 ) (2.7 ) (90 ) (3.8 ) Tax-exempt income (135 ) (5.8 ) (216 ) (9.3 ) Low-income housing credits (95 ) (4.1 ) (49 ) (2.1 ) Tax rate change 3,780 161.9 — — Other, net 10 0.5 (40 ) (1.7 ) Actual tax expense and effective rate $ 4,093 174.1 % $ 400 17.1 % On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"). The Tax Act amends the Internal Revenue Code to reduce tax rates and modify policies, credits, and deductions for individuals and businesses. For businesses, the Tax Act reduces the corporate federal tax rate from a maximum of 35% to a flat 21% rate. The corporate tax rate reduction was effective January 1, 2018. Because the Company has a fiscal year end of September 30, the reduced corporate tax rate will result in the application of a blended federal statutory tax rate for its fiscal year 2018 and then a flat 21% thereafter. As a result, the carrying value of net deferred tax assets was reduced, which increased income tax expense by $3.8 million. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. These calculations are based on many complex factors including estimates of the timing of reversals of temporary differences, the interpretation of federal income tax laws, and a determination of the differences between the tax and the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates and interpretations used in determining the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Under GAAP, a valuation allowance is required to be recognized if it is “more likely than not” that a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Our policy is to evaluate our deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and record a valuation allowance for our deferred tax asset if we do not have sufficient positive evidence indicating that it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will be realized. Each quarter, we consider positive evidence, which may include taxes paid in carryback years, reversing timing differences, available tax planning strategies, and projected taxable income and weigh it against negative evidence, which may include cumulative losses in the most recent three year period and uncertainty regarding short-term future earnings, among other items. At December 31, 2017, management determined that no valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset was required. This determination was based on sufficient positive evidence associated with our return to profitability, demonstrated through cumulative earnings over the recent three year period, strong quarterly income, and our projections for future taxable income.
