Loans Receivable Major classifications of loans are as follows: At June 30, At December 31, (In thousands) 2024 2023 Residential mortgages: One- to four-family $ 169,502 $ 168,387 169,502 168,387 Commercial loans: Real estate - nonresidential 13,864 14,437 Multi-family 777 832 Commercial business 14,902 18,821 29,543 34,090 Consumer: Home equity and junior liens 15,096 13,632 Manufactured homes 46,209 48,681 Automobile 19,459 22,424 Student 1,441 1,569 Recreational vehicle 21,403 22,915 Other consumer 8,897 9,555 112,505 118,776 Total Loans 311,550 321,253 Net deferred loan costs 13,897 15,351 Fair value credit and yield adjustment (115) (149) Less allowance for loan losses (3,177) (2,973) Loans receivable, net $ 322,155 $ 333,482 The Company originates residential mortgage, commercial, and consumer loans to customers, principally located in the Finger Lakes Region of New York State and extending north to Orleans County. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its debtors’ abilities to honor their contracts is dependent upon the counties’ employment and economic conditions. To further diversify the loan portfolio, the Company also purchases loans that have been originated outside of the region. High quality automobile loans, originated in the Northeastern United States, are purchased regularly from a Connecticut based company. In 2019, the Company also began to purchase modular home loans originated throughout the United States, the seller of which then services the loans for the Company. In 2020, the Company began to purchase automobile and recreational vehicle loans originated in New York State. In 2022, the Company began to purchase one- to four-family, owner-occupied residential real estate loans from a third-party originator. These loans are serviced by the Company and primarily located in Cayuga, Ontario, Orleans, and Seneca counties. Loan Origination / Risk Management The Company has lending policies and procedures in place that are designed to maximize loan income within an acceptable level of risk. Management reviews and approves these policies and procedures on a regular basis. A reporting system supplements the review process by frequently providing management with reports related to loan production, loan quality, loan delinquencies, non-performing, and potential problem loans. Diversification in the loan portfolio is a means of managing risk associated with fluctuations in economic conditions. The loan portfolio is segregated into risk rating categories based on the borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors, and value of collateral, if appropriate. The risk ratings are evaluated at least annually for commercial loans. Risk ratings are also reviewed when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payments, for commercial, residential mortgage, or consumer loans. Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss. Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and are charged to the allowance for credit loss. Loans not classified are rated as pass. The following table presents the classes of the loan portfolio summarized by the credit quality indicator: At June 30, 2024 Special (In thousands) Pass Mention Substandard Doubtful Total Residential mortgages: One- to four-family $ 166,231 $ 1,265 $ 2,006 $ — $ 169,502 166,231 1,265 2,006 — 169,502 Commercial loans: Real estate - nonresidential 11,974 1,610 280 — 13,864 Multi-family 777 — — — 777 Commercial business 14,004 521 377 — 14,902 26,755 2,131 657 — 29,543 Consumer: Home equity and junior liens 14,911 98 87 — 15,096 Manufactured homes 45,708 233 268 — 46,209 Automobile 19,341 49 69 — 19,459 Student 1,409 5 27 — 1,441 Recreational vehicle 20,704 333 366 — 21,403 Other consumer 8,844 53 — — 8,897 110,917 771 817 — 112,505 Total loans $ 303,903 $ 4,167 $ 3,480 $ — $ 311,550 At December 31, 2023 Special (In thousands) Pass Mention Substandard Doubtful Total Residential mortgages: One- to four-family $ 164,940 $ 1,169 $ 2,278 $ — $ 168,387 164,940 1,169 2,278 — 168,387 Commercial loans: Real estate - nonresidential 12,505 1,633 299 — 14,437 Multi-family 832 — — — 832 Commercial business 16,016 615 2,190 — 18,821 29,353 2,248 2,489 — 34,090 Consumer: Home equity and junior liens 13,486 61 85 — 13,632 Manufactured homes 48,286 72 323 — 48,681 Automobile 22,216 88 120 — 22,424 Student 1,543 — 26 — 1,569 Recreational vehicle 21,974 650 291 — 22,915 Other consumer 9,428 56 71 — 9,555 116,933 927 916 — 118,776 Total loans $ 311,226 $ 4,344 $ 5,683 $ — $ 321,253 Management has reviewed its loan portfolio and determined that, to the best of its knowledge, little or no exposure exists to sub-prime or other high-risk residential mortgages. The Company is not in the practice of originating these types of loans. Non-accrual and Past Due Loans Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received within thirty days of the payment due date. 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 management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan may be currently performing. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest is reversed and charged to interest income. Interest received on non-accrual 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, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. Non-accrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for six When future collectability of the recorded loan balance is expected, interest income may be recognized on a cash basis. In the case where a non-accrual loan had been partially charged off, recognition of interest on a cash basis is limited to that which would have been recognized on the recorded loan balance at the contractual interest rate. Cash interest receipts in excess of that amount are recorded as recoveries to allowance for loan losses until prior charge-offs have been fully recovered.

Non-accrual loans may have an allowance for credit losses or a negative allowance for credit losses from expected recoveries of amounts previously written off. Non-accrual loans may not have an allowance for credit losses if the loss expectations are zero given a solid collateral value.

The starting point for the estimate of the allowance for credit losses is historical loss information, which includes losses from modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The Company uses a probability of default/loss given default model to determine the allowance for credit losses. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made on the date of a modification. Because the effect of most modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the allowance for credit losses because of the measurement methodologies used to estimate the allowance, a change to the allowance for credit losses is generally not recorded upon modification. Occasionally, the Company modifies loans by providing principal forgiveness on certain of its real estate loans. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amortized cost basis of the asset is written off against the allowance for credit losses. The amount of the principal forgiveness is deemed to be uncollectible; therefore, that portion of the loan is written off, resulting in a reduction of the amortized cost basis and a corresponding adjustment to the allowance for credit losses. In some cases, the Company will modify a certain loan by providing multiple types of concessions. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted. There were no loans modified with financial difficulty during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
