Credit Quality Indicators . The Company assigns a risk rating to all credit exposures based on a risk rating system designed to define the basic characteristics and identify risk elements of each credit extension. The Company utilizes a nine point risk rating system. A description of the general characteristics of the risk grades is as follows: • Grades 1 through 5: These grades are considered to be “pass” credits. These include assets where there is virtually no credit risk, such as cash secured loans with funds on deposit with the Company. Pass credits also include credits that are on the Company’s watch list (grade 5), where the borrower exhibits potential weaknesses, which may, if not checked or corrected, negatively affect the borrower’s financial capacity and threaten their ability to fulfill debt obligations in the future. • Grade 6: These credits, classified as “special mention”, possess weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. Special mention assets do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification in the substandard, doubtful or loss categories. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration in the Company’s credit position at a future date. • Grade 7: These credits, classified as “substandard”, present a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. These credits have well-defined weaknesses which jeopardize the orderly liquidation of the debt and are inadequately protected by the current net worth and payment capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged. • Grade 8: These credits are classified as “doubtful” and possess well defined weaknesses which make the full collection or liquidation of the loan highly questionable and improbable. This classification is used where significant risk exposures are perceived but the exact amount of the loss cannot yet be determined due to pending events. • Grade 9: Assets classified as “loss” are considered uncollectible and cannot be justified as a viable asset for the Company. There is little or no prospect of near-term recovery and no realistic strengthening action of significance is pending. The grades for watch and special mention loans are used by the Company to identify and track potential problem loans which do not rise to the levels described for substandard, doubtful, or loss. These are loans which have been criticized based upon known characteristics such as periodic payment delinquency, failure to comply with contractual terms of the loan or stale financial information from the borrower and/or guarantors. Loans identified as criticized (watch and special mention) or classified (substandard, doubtful or loss) are subject to problem loan reporting every three months. Management considers the guidance in ASC 310-20 when determining whether a modification, extension, or renewal of loan constitutes a current period origination. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had no loans rated as doubtful or loss.

ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans are charged off against the ACL when management believes the non-collectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Expected recoveries may not exceed the aggregate amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off. The allowance for credit losses, as reported in our consolidated statements of financial conditions, is adjusted by a provision for credit losses, which is reported in earnings, and reduced by the charge-offs of loan amounts, net of recoveries. When the Company classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, pursuant to Federal regulations, or identifies a loan where it is uncertain if the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan, it may establish a specific allowance in an amount deemed prudent to address the risk specifically. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to the particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as a loss, pursuant to Federal regulations, it is required to charge off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. The determination as to the classification of the Company’s assets and the amount of valuation allowance is subject to review by bank regulators, who can require the establishment of additional allowances for credit losses. At June 30, 2023, total loans receivable included $629,000 of loans originated under the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) compared to $784,000 at December 31, 2022. Although these loans were included in the population of loans collectively evaluated for impairment, no general allowance was allocated to them as these loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA.

Nonperforming Loans. When a loan becomes 90 days past due, the Company generally places the loan on nonaccrual status. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status prior to being 90 days past due if there is an identified problem that indicates the borrower is unable to meet their scheduled payment obligations. Nonaccrual loans were $201,000 at June 30, 2023 and $193,000 at December 31, 2022.

Impaired Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses - Prior to the implementation of Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) on January 1, 2023, a loan was considered impaired when, based on current information and circumstances, the Company determines it was probable that it would be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. Factors considered in determining impairment included, but were not limited to, the financial condition of the borrower, the value of the underlying collateral and the status of the economy. Impaired loans were comprised of loans on nonaccrual, TDRs that were performing under their restructured terms, and loans that were 90 days or more past due but were still on accrual.
