Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise stated) (Unaudited) NORTHEAST COMMUNITY BANCORP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The following is a description of the Company’s business and significant accounting and reporting policies: Nature of Business: Northeast Community Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation that was incorporated in May 2021 to be the successor to NorthEast Community Bancorp, Inc., a federally chartered corporation (the “Mid-Tier Holding Company”), upon completion of the second-step conversion of NorthEast Community Bank (the “Bank”) from the two-tier mutual holding company structure to the stock holding company structure. NorthEast Community Bancorp, MHC was the former mutual holding company for the Mid-Tier Holding Company prior to the completion of the second-step conversion. In conjunction with the second-step conversion, each of NorthEast Community Bancorp, MHC and the Mid-Tier Holding Company merged out of existence and now cease to exist. ​ The Bank is a New York State-chartered savings bank and the Company’s primary activity is the ownership and operation of the Bank. ​ The Bank is headquartered in White Plains, New York. The Bank was founded in 1934 and is a community oriented financial institution dedicated to serving the financial services needs of individuals and businesses within its market area. The Bank currently conducts business through its eleven branch offices located in the Bronx, New York, Orange, Rockland, and Sullivan Counties in New York and Essex, Middlesex and Norfolk Counties in Massachusetts and three loan production offices located in White Plains, New York, New City, New York, and Danvers, Massachusetts. The Bank’s principal business consists of originating primarily construction loans and, to a lesser extent, commercial and industrial loans and multifamily and mixed-use residential real estate loans and non-residential real estate loans. The Bank offers a variety of retail deposit products to the general public in the areas surrounding its main office and its branch offices, with interest rates that are competitive with those of similar products offered by other financial institutions operating in its market area. The Bank also utilizes borrowings as a source of funds. The Bank’s revenues are derived primarily from interest on loans and, to a lesser extent, interest on investment securities and mortgage-backed securities. The Bank also generates revenues from other income including deposit fees, service charges and investment advisory fees. The Bank also previously offered investment advisory and financial planning services under the name Harbor West Wealth Management Group, a division of the Bank, through a networking arrangement with a registered broker-dealer and investment advisor. The Bank entered into an agreement to sell all the Bank’s assets relating to Harbor West Wealth Management Group to a third party in December 2023, and the sale closed in January 2024. The Bank no longer offers these services. New England Commercial Properties LLC (“NECP”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in October 2007 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank. New England Commercial Properties, LLC currently owns one foreclosed property located in Pennsylvania. NECB Financial Services Group, LLC (“NECB Financial”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in the third quarter of 2012 as a complement to Harbor West Wealth Management Group to sell life insurance and fixed rate annuities. NECB Financial is licensed in New York State. 10 Table of Contents NECB Financial terminated its license in Connecticut on February 22, 2024 due to the sale of all the Bank’s assets relating to Harbor West Wealth Management Group to a third party in January 2024. This subsidiary is currently inactive. 72 West Eckerson LLC (“72 West Eckerson”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in April 2015 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank and currently owns the Bank branch locations in Spring Valley, New York and Monroe, New York. 166 Route 59 Realty LLC (“166 Route 59 Realty”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in April 2021 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank and currently owns the property for the Bank branch located in Airmont, New York. 3 Winterton Realty LLC, a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in October 2021 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank and currently owns the property for the Bank branch located in Bloomingburg, New York. Principal of Consolidations: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank, NECP, NECB Financial, 72 West Eckerson, 166 Route 59 Realty, and 3 Winterton Realty LLC (collectively the “Company”) and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the operating results for the interim periods have been included. The results of operations for periods of less than a year are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any other period. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to change in the near term are used in connection with the determination of the allowance for credit losses. Loan Receivable: Loans are stated at unpaid principal balances plus net deferred loan origination fees and costs less an allowance for credit losses. Interest on loans receivable is recorded on the accrual basis. An allowance for uncollected interest is established on loans where management has determined that the borrowers may be unable to meet contractual principal and/or interest obligations or where interest or principal is 90 days or more past due, unless the loans are well secured with a reasonable expectation of collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, an allowance for uncollected interest is established and charged against current income. Thereafter, interest income is not recognized unless the financial condition and payment record of the borrower warrant the recognition of interest income. 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. Interest on loans that have been restructured is accrued according to the renegotiated terms. Net loan origination fees and costs are deferred and amortized into interest income over the contractual lives of the related loans by use of the level yield method. Past due status of loans is based upon the contractual due date. 11 Table of Contents Loan Concentration Risk: The Company’s lending activity is concentrated in construction loans secured by the construction of multi-family properties in Massachusetts and by the construction primarily of multi-family, residential condominium properties, and occasionally non-residential properties located in New York State. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had a majority of construction loans located in New York State, including $ 680.8 million and $ 626.0 million in the Bronx, $ 202.3 million and $ 198.5 million in the Town of Monroe, $ 134.6 million and $ 133.7 million in the Hamlet of Monsey, and $ 103.8 million and $ 105.9 million in the Village of Spring Valley. At March 31, 2024, the Company had $ 78.1 million, or 6.0 %, of construction loans located in Rockland County, New York, related to office space or commercial use. ​ ​ Note 2 — Regulatory Capital The Company and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements promulgated by the federal banking agencies. The Federal Reserve establishes capital requirements, including well capitalized standards, for the consolidated bank holding company, and the FDIC has similar requirements for the Company’s subsidiary bank. The Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The following table presents information about the Bank’s capital levels at the dates presented: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Regulatory Capital Requirements ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Minimum Capital ​ For Classification as ​ ​ Actual ​ Adequacy(1) ​ Well-Capitalized ​ Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ​ ​ (Dollars in Thousands) As of March 31, 2024: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ $ 270,492 13.78 % $ ≥ 157,081 ≥ 8.00 % $ ≥ 196,352 ≥ 10.00 % Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 264,439 13.47 ​ ≥ 117,811 ≥ 6.00 ​ ≥ 157,081 ≥ 8.00 ​ Common equity tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 264,439 13.47 ​ ≥ 88,358 ≥ 4.50 ​ ≥ 127,628 ≥ 6.50 ​ Core (Tier 1) capital (to adjusted total assets) ​ 264,439 14.65 ​ ≥ 72,195 ≥ 4.00 ​ ≥ 90,243 ≥ 5.00 ​ As of December 31, 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ $ 255,252 13.43 % $ ≥ 152,097 ≥ 8.00 % $ ≥ 190,121 ≥ 10.00 % Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 249,013 13.10 ​ ≥ 114,072 ≥ 6.00 ​ ≥ 152,097 ≥ 8.00 ​ Common equity tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 249,013 13.10 ​ ≥ 85,554 ≥ 4.50 ​ ≥ 123,579 ≥ 6.50 ​ Core (Tier 1) capital (to adjusted total assets) ​ 249,013 14.43 ​ ≥ 69,007 ≥ 4.00 ​ ≥ 86,259 ≥ 5.00 ​ (1) Ratios do not include the capital conservation buffer. Based on the most recent notification by the FDIC, the Bank was categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There have been no conditions or events that have occurred since notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category. ​ ​ Note 3 — Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period less any unvested restricted shares. Unallocated common shares held by the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) are not included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic net income per common share until they are committed to be released. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result 12 Table of Contents from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the weighted average shares outstanding used in the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share.

Management concluded that the unrealized loss reflected above was temporary in nature since the unrealized loss was related primarily to market interest rate volatility, and was not related to the underlying credit quality of the issuers of the securities. Additionally, the Company has the ability and intent to hold the securities for the time necessary to recover the amortized cost. At December 31, 2023, there were thirty-two mortgage-backed securities that had unrealized losses due to interest rate volatility. Credit Quality Indicators ​ The held to maturity securities portfolio consists of agency mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds. All agency mortgage-backed securities are issued by U.S. government entities and agencies. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. The seven municipal bonds in the portfolio carry no lower than A ratings from the rating agencies at March 31, 2024 and have no realized losses since they were issued. The Company regularly monitors the municipal bonds sector of the market and reviews collectability including such factors as the financial condition of the issuers as well as credit ratings in effect as of the reporting period. ​ 15 Table of Contents Note 6 — Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses The composition of loans was as follows at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ March 31, ​ December 31, ​ ​ 2024 2023 ​ ​ ​ (In Thousands) ​ Residential real estate: ​ ​ ​ One-to-four family ​ $ 4,647 ​ $ 5,252 ​ Multi-family ​ 197,946 ​ 198,927 ​ Mixed-use ​ 28,500 ​ 29,643 ​ Total residential real estate ​ 231,093 ​ 233,822 ​ Non-residential real estate ​ 19,130 ​ 21,130 ​ Construction ​ 1,293,871 ​ 1,219,413 ​ Commercial and industrial ​ 108,882 ​ 111,116 ​ Consumer ​ 1,650 ​ 1,240 ​ Total Loans ​ 1,654,626 ​ 1,586,721 ​ Deferred loan costs, net ​ ( 52 ) ​ 176 ​ Allowance for credit losses ​ ( 4,927 ) ​ ( 5,093 ) ​ ​ ​ $ 1,649,647 ​ $ 1,581,804 ​ ​ Loans serviced for the benefit of others totaled approximately $ 44.2 million and $ 40.7 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The value of mortgage servicing rights was not material at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The allowance for credit losses on loans 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 allowance for credit losses is increased by the provision for credit losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for credit losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely. The allowance for credit losses on loans 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 relevant available information from internal and external sources related to past events and current conditions, as well as the incorporation of reasonable and supportable forecasts. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. 16 Table of Contents The following tables summarize the allocation of the allowance for credit losses and loans receivable by loan class and credit loss method at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023: At March 31, 2024: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Non- ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential ​ residential ​ ​ ​ ​ and ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Real Estate Real Estate Construction Industrial Consumer Total ​ ​ (In Thousands) Allowance for credit losses: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Ending balance ​ $ 2,229 ​ $ 110 ​ $ 1,969 ​ $ 422 ​ $ 197 ​ $ 4,927 Ending balance: individually evaluated for credit loss ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — Ending balance: collectively evaluated for credit loss ​ $ 2,229 ​ $ 110 ​ $ 1,969 ​ $ 422 ​ $ 197 ​ $ 4,927 Loans receivable: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Ending balance ​ $ 231,093 ​ $ 19,130 ​ $ 1,293,871 ​ $ 108,882 ​ $ 1,650 ​ $ 1,654,626 Ending balance: individually evaluated for credit loss ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ 4,385 ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ 4,385 Ending balance: collectively evaluated for credit loss ​ $ 231,093 ​ $ 19,130 ​ $ 1,289,486 ​ $ 108,882 ​ $ 1,650 ​ $ 1,650,241 ​ ​ At December 31, 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Non- ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential ​ residential ​ ​ ​ ​ and ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Real Estate ​ Real Estate ​ Construction ​ Industrial ​ Consumer ​ Total ​ ​ (In Thousands) Allowance for credit losses: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Ending balance ​ $ 2,433 ​ $ 126 ​ $ 1,914 ​ $ 472 ​ $ 148 ​ $ 5,093 Ending balance: individually evaluated for credit loss ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — Ending balance: collectively evaluated for credit loss ​ $ 2,433 ​ $ 126 ​ $ 1,914 ​ $ 472 ​ $ 148 ​ $ 5,093 Loans receivable: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Ending balance ​ $ 233,822 ​ $ 21,130 ​ $ 1,219,413 ​ $ 111,116 ​ $ 1,240 ​ $ 1,586,721 Ending balance: individually evaluated for credit loss ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ 4,385 ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ 4,385 Ending balance: collectively evaluated for credit loss ​ $ 233,822 ​ $ 21,130 ​ $ 1,215,028 ​ $ 111,116 ​ $ 1,240 ​ $ 1,582,336 ​ ​ 17 Table of Contents The activity in the allowance for credit loss by loan class for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Non- ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential ​ residential ​ ​ ​ ​ and ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Real Estate Real Estate Construction Industrial Consumer Unallocated Total ​ ​ (In Thousands) Allowance for credit losses: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Balance - December 31, 2023 ​ $ 2,433 ​ $ 126 ​ $ 1,914 ​ $ 472 ​ $ 148 ​ $ — ​ $ 5,093 Charge-offs ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ( 21 ) ​ — ​ ( 21 ) Recoveries ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — Provision (reversal of) ​ ( 204 ) ​ ( 16 ) ​ 55 ​ ( 50 ) ​ 70 ​ — ​ ( 145 ) Balance -March 31, 2024 ​ $ 2,229 ​ $ 110 ​ $ 1,969 ​ $ 422 ​ $ 197 ​ $ — ​ $ 4,927 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Non- ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential ​ residential ​ ​ ​ ​ and ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Real Estate ​ Real Estate ​ Construction ​ Industrial ​ Consumer ​ Unallocated ​ Total ​ ​ (In Thousands) Allowance for credit losses: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Balance - December 31, 2022 ​ $ 528 ​ $ 131 ​ $ 3,835 ​ $ 955 ​ $ 18 ​ $ 7 ​ $ 5,474 Impact of adopting ASC 326 ​ ​ 895 ​ ​ 7 ​ ​ ( 2,086 ) ​ ​ ( 437 ) ​ ​ 44 ​ ​ ( 7 ) ​ ​ ( 1,584 ) Charge-offs ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ( 21 ) ​ — ​ ( 21 ) Recoveries ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — Provision (reversal of) ​ 51 ​ ( 16 ) ​ 93 ​ ( 12 ) ​ 81 ​ — ​ 197 Balance - March 31, 2023 ​ $ 1,474 ​ $ 122 ​ $ 1,842 ​ $ 506 ​ $ 122 ​ $ — ​ $ 4,066 ​ During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the reversal of provision recorded for residential real estate loans was primarily attributed to the decreased loan balances and reduced credit risk. The reversal of provision recorded for non-residential real estate loans and commercial and industrial loans was primarily attributed to the decreased loan balances. The provision expenses recorded for consumer loans were primarily attributed to the increased deposit account overdraft balances. The provision expenses recorded for constructions loans were primarily attributed to the increased construction loan balances, offset by improving economic conditions during the first quarter of 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the provision expenses recorded for construction loans and residential real estate loans were primarily attributed to the increased loan balances. The provision expenses recorded for consumer loans were primarily attributed to the increased deposit account overdraft balances. The Company has two individually evaluated loans, totaling $ 4.4 million, which were collateral-dependent construction loans, secured by multi-family real estate, at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The two loans are secured by the same project located in the Bronx, New York, and are currently placed on non-accrual status. There was no interest income recognized from non-accrual loans as of March 31, 2024. The Company had no individually evaluated loans at March 31, 2023, and there was no interest income recognized from individually evaluated loans as of March 31, 2023. ​ 18 Table of Contents The following table shows our recorded investment, unpaid principal balance and allocated allowance for credit losses for loans that were considered nonperforming as of and for the periods presented: As of and for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 ​ Recorded Unpaid Principal Related Average Recorded Interest Income 2024 - Individually evaluated ​ Investment ​ Balance ​ Allowance ​ Investment ​ Recognized ​ ​ (In Thousands) With no related allowance recorded: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential real estate ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — Non-residential real estate ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — Construction ​ 4,385 ​ 4,353 ​ — ​ 4,385 ​ — Commercial and industrial ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 4,385 ​ 4,353 ​ — ​ 4,385 ​ — With an allowance recorded ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential real estate ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — Non-residential real estate ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — Construction ​ 4,385 ​ 4,353 ​ — ​ 4,385 ​ — Commercial and industrial ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ​ $ 4,385 ​ $ 4,353 ​ $ — ​ $ 4,385 ​ $ — ​ ​ As of and for the Year Ended December 31, 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Recorded Unpaid Principal Related Average Recorded Interest Income 2023 - Individually evaluated ​ Investment ​ Balance ​ Allowance ​ Investment ​ Recognized ​ ​ (In Thousands) With no related allowance recorded: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential real estate ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — Non-residential real estate ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ​ — Construction ​ 4,385 ​ 4,353 ​ — ​ 5,930 ​ ​ — Commercial and industrial ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 4,385 ​ 4,353 ​ — ​ 5,930 ​ — With an allowance recorded ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential real estate ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — Non-residential real estate ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — Construction ​ 4,385 ​ 4,353 ​ — ​ 5,930 ​ — Commercial and industrial ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ — ​ ​ $ 4,385 ​ $ 4,353 ​ $ — ​ $ 5,930 ​ $ — ​ ​ 19 Table of Contents The following tables provide information about delinquencies in our loan portfolio at the dates indicated.

The Company analyzes loans individually to classify the loans as to credit risk. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings: Pass – Loans that are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor (or guarantors, if any) or by the fair value, less cost to acquire and sell, of any underlying collateral in a timely manner. Special Mention – Loans which do not currently expose the Company to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant an adverse classification but have some credit deficiencies or other potential weaknesses. Substandard – Loans which are inadequately protected by the paying capacity and net worth of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful – Loans which have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified as Substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values. ​ 21 Table of Contents The following table presents the risk category of loans at March 31, 2024 by loan segment and vintage year: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Revolving ​ Revolving ​ ​ ​ ​ Term Loans Amortized Costs Basis by Origination Year ​ Loans ​ Loans ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Amortized ​ Converted ​ ​ March 31, 2024 ​ ​ 2024 ​ 2023 ​ 2022 ​ 2021 ​ 2020 ​ Prior ​ Cost Basis ​ to Term ​ Total Residential real estate ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Risk Rating ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Pass ​ $ -

When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged-off against the allowance for credit losses. In some cases, the Company provides multiple types of concessions on one loan. 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 to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended March 31, 2024 or the year ended December 31, 2023. Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Commitments: The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses related to off-balance sheet commitments, that is included in Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses on the consolidated statement of financial condition, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Allowance for Credit Loss Balance – December 31, 2023 ​ $ 1,038 Provision for (reversal of) credit loss ​ ​ ( 17 ) Balance – March 31, 2024 ​ $ 1,021 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Allowance for Credit Loss Balance – December 31, 2022 ​ $ - Impact of adopting ASC 326 ​ ​ 1,586 Provision for (reversal of) credit loss ​ ​ ( 200 ) Balance – March 31, 2023 ​ $ 1,386 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Note 7 — Real Estate Owned (“REO”) The Company owned one foreclosed property valued at approximately $ 1,456,000 at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, consisting of an office building located in Pennsylvania. The property was acquired through foreclosure in December 2014. Further declines in real estate values may result in impairment charges in the future. Routine holding costs are charged to expense as incurred and improvements to real estate owned that enhance the value of the real estate are capitalized. REO expense recorded in the consolidated statements of income amounted to $ 11,000 and $ 21,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. ​ 24 Table of Contents Note 8 — Borrowings Our borrowings include Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB”) advances and short-term borrowings from the Discount Window at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“FRBNY”). FHLB advances are summarized as follows at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ March 31, ​ December 31, ​ ​ ​ 2024 ​ 2023 ​ ​ ​ Weighted Average ​ Weighted Average ​ ​ ​ Amount ​ Interest Rate ​ Amount ​ Interest Rate ​ ​ ​ (Dollars in Thousands) ​ Advances maturing in: ​ ​ ​ ​ One year or less ​ $ — ​ — % $ 7,000 ​ 2.86 % ​ After one to three years ​ ​ — — ​ ​ — — ​ ​ After three to four years ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ After five years (due 2030) ​ 7,000 1.61 % 7,000 1.61 % ​ ​ ​ $ 7,000 1.61 % $ 14,000 2.24 % ​ ​ At March 31, 2024, none of the above advances were subject to early call or redemption features. All advances had fixed interest rates, with the remaining term of six years for the advance. At March 31, 2024, the advances were secured by a pledge of the Company’s investment in the capital stock of the FHLB and a blanket assignment of the Company’s otherwise unpledged qualifying mortgage loans. At March 31, 2024, these unpledged qualifying mortgage loans were not pledged to any company other than the FHLB. At March 31, 2024, the Company had the ability to borrow $ 32.1 million, net of $ 7.0 million in outstanding advances, from the FHLB and $ 8.0 million from Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (“ACBB”). ​ On August 30, 2023, the FRBNY approved the Company’s eligibility to pledge loans under the Borrower-in-Custody program of the FRBNY thereby allowing the Company to borrow from the Discount Window at the FRBNY. As of March 31, 2024, the borrowing from FRBNY was $ 40.0 million and bears an interest rate of 5.5 % . This borrowing matures in June 2024. The Company had an available borrowing limit of $ 928.8 million from the FRBNY as of March 31, 2024. ​ Note 9 — Benefits Plans ​ Outside Director Retirement Plan (“DRP”) The DRP is an unfunded non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering all non-employee directors meeting eligibility requirements as specified in the plan document. The following table sets forth information regarding the components of net pension periodic expense measured as of March 31, 2024 and 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended March 31, ​ ​ 2024 2023 ​ ​ (Dollars In Thousands) Net periodic pension expense: ​ ​ ​ Service cost ​ $ 23 ​ $ 31 Interest cost ​ 21 ​ 10 Actuarial gain recognized ​ ( 13 ) ​ ( 8 ) Total net periodic pension expense included in other non-interest expenses ​ $ 31 ​ $ 33 ​ Unrecognized net loss of $ 18,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were included in accumulated other comprehensive income. 25 Table of Contents Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) The SERP is a non-contributory defined benefit plan that covers certain officers of the Company. Under the SERP, each of these individuals will be entitled to receive upon retirement an annual benefit paid in monthly installments equal to 50 % of his average base salary in the three-year period preceding retirement. Each individual may also retire early and receive a reduced benefit upon the attainment of certain age and years of service combination. Additional terms related to death while employed, death after retirement, disability before retirement and termination of employment are fully described within the plan document. The benefit payment term is the greater of 15 years or the executive’s remaining life. No benefits are expected to be paid during the next five years . Expenses of $ 130,000 and $ 60,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were recorded for this plan and are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income under Salaries and Employee Benefits. Stock-Based Deferral Plan In June 2021, the Company established a stock-based deferral plan for eligible key executives and members of the Board of Directors of the Company to elect to defer compensation received from the Company for their services and make deemed investments of that deferred compensation in shares of the Company’s common stock. At March 31, 2024, the Company did not have any obligations under the plan. 401(k) Plan The Company maintains a 401(k) plan for all eligible employees. Participants are permitted to contribute from 1 % to 15 % or 60 % of their annual compensation up to the maximum permitted under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company provided no matching contribution during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) In conjunction with the Mid-Tier Holding Company’s public stock offering in 2006, the Bank established an ESOP for all eligible employees (substantially all full-time employees). The ESOP borrowed $ 5,184,200 from the Mid-Tier Holding Company and used those funds to acquire 518,420 shares of the Mid-Tier Holding Company common stock at $ 10.00 per share. The loan from the Mid-Tier Holding Company, which has been assumed by the Company, carries an interest rate of 8.25 % and is repayable in twenty annual installments through 2025. In conjunction with the Company’s second-step conversion offering, on July 12, 2021, the ESOP borrowed $ 7,827,260 from the Company and used those funds to acquire 782,726 shares of Company common stock at $ 10.00 per share. The loan from the Company carries an interest rate equal to 3.25 % and is repayable in fifteen annual installments through 2035. Each year, the Bank makes discretionary contributions to the ESOP equal to the principal and interest payment required on the loan from the Company. The ESOP may further pay down the principal balance of the loans by using dividends paid, if any, on the shares of Company common stock it owns. The balance remaining on the first ESOP loan was $ 919,000 at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The balance remaining on the second ESOP loan was $ 6,417,000 at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Shares purchased for the ESOP with the loan proceeds serve as collateral for the loan and are held in a suspense account for future allocation among ESOP participants. As the loan principal is repaid, shares will be released from the suspense account and become eligible for allocation. The allocation among plan participants will be as described in the ESOP governing document. ESOP shares initially pledged as collateral were recorded as unearned ESOP shares in the stockholders’ equity section of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. Thereafter, on a monthly basis over the terms of the ESOP loans, approximately 2,894 shares for the ESOP loan made in 2006 and approximately 4,348 shares for the ESOP loan made in 2021 are committed to be released, respectively. Compensation expense is recorded equal to the shares committed to be released multiplied by the average closing price of the Company’s stock during that month. ESOP expense totaled approximately $ 352,000 and $ 326,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, 26 Table of Contents respectively. Dividends on unallocated shares, which totaled approximately $ 70,000 and $ 47,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, are recorded as a reduction of the ESOP loan. Dividends on allocated shares, which totaled approximately $ 78,000 and $ 42,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, are charged to retained earnings. ESOP shares are summarized as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ March 31, ​ December 31, ​ ​ 2024 2023 ​ Allocated shares ​ ​ 781,762 ​ 694,842 ​ Shares committed to be released ​ ​ 21,729 ​ 86,920 ​ Unearned shares ​ ​ 673,918 ​ 695,647 ​ Total ESOP Shares ​ ​ 1,477,409 ​ 1,477,409 ​ Less allocated shares distributed to former or retired employees ​ ​ ( 143,612 ) ​ ( 143,612 ) ​ Total ESOP Shares Held by Trustee ​ ​ 1,333,797 ​ 1,333,797 ​ Fair value of unearned shares ​ $ 10,600,730 ​ $ 12,340,778 ​ ​ ​ ​ Note 10 — Leases The Company has operating leases and finance leases all of which are comprised of real estate property. The operating leases comprise substantially all of the Company’s obligations in which the Company is the lessee, with remaining lease terms ranging between 1 and 10 years . Most operating lease agreements consist of initial lease terms ranging between 5 and 10 years , with options to renew the leases or extend the term. The finance lease has a remaining lease term of 93 years . The payment structure of all leases is fixed rental payments with lease payments increasing on pre-determined dates at either a predetermined amount or change in the consumer price index. In accordance with ASC 842, the Company recognized operating and financing lease assets and corresponding lease liabilities related to office facilities and retail branches. The operating and financing lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and the lease liability represents the Company’s obligation to make lease payments over the lease term. The Company has elected that any short term leases would be expensed as incurred. The operating and financing lease asset and lease liability are determined at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of the lease payments. Our leases do not provide an implicit interest rate. The Company used its incremental borrowing rate, the rate of interest to borrow on a collateralized basis for a similar term, at the lease commencement date. All of the leases are net leases and, therefore, do not contain non-lease components. The Company either pays directly or reimburses the lessor for property and casualty insurance cost and the property taxes assessed on the property, as well as a portion of the common area maintenance associated with the property, which are categorized as non-components as outlined in the applicable guidance. ​ 27 Table of Contents At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the quantitative data relating to the Company’s leases are as follows (in thousands): ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ March 31, December 31, ​ ​ 2024 ​ 2023 Finance Lease Amounts: ​ ​ ​ ROU asset ​ $ 350 ​ $ 351 ​ Lease liability ​ $ 580 ​ $ 571 ​ Operating Lease Amounts: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ROU assets ​ $ 4,427 ​ $ 4,566 ​ Lease liabilities ​ $ 4,497 ​ $ 4,625 ​ Weighted-average remaining lease term ​ ​ ​ Finance lease ​ 92.75 years ​ 93 years ​ Operating leases ​ 8.40 years ​ 8.58 years ​ Weighted-average discount rate ​ ​ ​ Finance lease ​ 9.50 % 9.50 % Operating leases ​ 5.20 % 5.18 % ​ The components of lease expense and cash flow information related to leases as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended March 31, ​ ​ 2024 2023 ​ ​ (Dollars In Thousands) ​ Finance Lease Cost ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Amortization of ROU asset ​ $ 1 ​ $ 1 ​ Interest on lease liability ​ $ 10 ​ $ 9 ​ Operating Lease Costs ​ $ 197 ​ $ 144 ​ Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities ​ ​ ​ ​ Finance lease ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ Operating leases ​ $ 183 ​ $ 142 ​ ​ Maturities of lease liabilities at March 31, 2024 are as follows (in thousands): ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Operating Finance ​ ​ Leases ​ Lease Years ended December 31: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2024 ​ $ 556 ​ $ 23 2025 ​ 738 ​ 30 2026 ​ 622 ​ 31 2027 ​ 637 ​ 36 2028 ​ 595 ​ 36 Thereafter ​ 2,475 ​ 4,016 Total lease payments ​ $ 5,623 ​ $ 4,172 Interest ​ ( 1,126 ) ​ ( 3,592 ) Lease liability ​ $ 4,497 ​ $ 580 ​ ​ ​ Note 11 — Fair Value Disclosures The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The Company’s marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company has to record at fair value other assets and liabilities on a non-recurring basis, such as securities held to maturity, individually evaluated loans and other real estate owned. U.S. GAAP has established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The 28 Table of Contents hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 : Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 : Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity). The level of the asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows: For real estate owned, fair value is generally determined through independent appraisals or fair value estimations of the underlying properties which generally include various Level 3 inputs which are not identifiable. The appraisals or fair value estimation may be adjusted by management for qualitative reasons and estimated liquidation expenses. Management’s assumptions may include consideration of location and occupancy of the property and current economic conditions. Subsequently, as these properties are actively marketed, the estimated fair values may be periodically adjusted through incremental subsequent write-downs to reflect decreases in estimated values resulting from sales price observations and the impact of changing economic and market conditions. A loan is considered individually evaluated for credit loss when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all scheduled payments in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Individually evaluated loans that are collateral dependent are written down to fair value through the establishment of specific reserves, a component of the allowance for credit losses or through partial charge-offs, and as such are carried at the lower of cost or the fair value. Estimates of fair value of the collateral are determined based on a variety of information, including available valuations from certified appraisers for similar assets, present value of discounted cash flows and inputs that are estimated based on commonly used and generally accepted industry liquidation advance rates and estimates and assumptions developed by management. The appraisals may be adjusted by management for estimated liquidation expenses and qualitative factors such as economic conditions. If real estate is not the primary source of repayment, present value of discounted cash flows and estimates using generally accepted industry liquidation advance rates are utilized. Due to the multitude of assumptions, many of which are subjective in nature, and the varying inputs and techniques used by appraisers, the Company recognizes that valuations could differ across a wide spectrum of valuation techniques employed and accordingly, fair value estimates for impaired loans are classified as Level 3. Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective year-ends and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each year-end. 30 Table of Contents Fair values for marketable equity securities are determined by quoted market prices on nationally recognized and foreign securities exchanges (Level 1). Fair values for equity securities and securities held to maturity are determined 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 quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

The Company’s services that fall within the scope of ASC 606 are presented within noninterest income and are recognized as revenue as the Company satisfies its obligation to the customer. Services within the scope of ASC 606 include deposit service charges on deposits, electronic banking fees and charges income, and investment advisory fees. A contract asset balance occurs when an entity performs a service for a customer before the customer pays consideration (resulting in a contract receivable) or before payment is due (resulting in a contract asset). A contract liability balance is an entity’s obligation to transfer a service to a customer for which the entity has already received payment (or payment is due) from the customer. The Company’s noninterest revenue streams are largely based on transactional activity, or standard month-end revenue accruals such as referral fees based month end reports. Consideration is often received immediately or shortly after the Company satisfies its performance obligation and revenue is recognized. The Company does not typically enter into long-term revenue contracts with customers, and therefore, does not experience significant contract balances. As of March 31, 2024, the Company did not have any significant contract balances. All of the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 is recognized within noninterest income. The following table presents the Company’s sources of noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Sources of revenue outside the scope of ASC 606 are noted as such: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended March 31, ​ ​ ​ 2024 2023 ​ ​ ​ (In Thousands) ​ Non-interest income: ​ ​ ​ ​ Deposit-related fees and charges ​ $ 15 ​ $ 14 ​ Loan-related fees and charges (1) ​ 211 ​ 350 ​ Electronic banking fees and charges ​ 236 ​ 243 ​ Income from bank owned life insurance (1) ​ 157 ​ 150 ​ Investment advisory fees ​ — ​ 117 ​ Unrealized (loss) gain on equity securities (1) ​ ( 82 ) ​ 225 ​ Miscellaneous (1) ​ 17 ​ 16 ​ Total non-interest income ​ $ 554 ​ $ 1,115 ​ (1) Not within the scope of ASC 606. A description of the Company’s revenue streams accounted for under ASC 606 is as follows: Service Charges on Deposit Accounts The Company earns fees from deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, and ACH fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed at the point in the time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. The Company discontinued the imposition of overdraft fees on all consumer and business accounts in August 2022. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer’s account balance. 32 Table of Contents Electronic Banking Fee Income The Company earns interchange fees from debit and credit card holder transactions conducted through various payment networks. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided by an outsourced technology solution. Investment Advisory Fees The Company earns fees from investment advisory and financial planning services under the name of Harbor West Wealth Management Group, a division of the Company through a networking arrangement with a registered broker-dealer and investment advisor. The registered broker-dealer deducts investment advisory fees and financial planning services fees from the client’s assets under management and remits the fees, net of administrative fees, to the Company on a monthly basis. The Company recognizes the fees into non-interest income upon receipt of the monthly remittances. ​ As previously noted, in January 2024, the Bank sold all of the Bank’s assets relating to Harbor West Wealth Management Group to a third party. As such, the Bank no longer generates investment advisory fees following the completion of the sale transaction. ​ Note 13 — Other Non-Interest Expenses The following is an analysis of other non-interest expenses: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended March 31, ​ ​ ​ 2024 2023 ​ ​ ​ (In Thousands) ​ Other ​ $ 1,103 ​ $ 766 ​ Service contracts ​ 424 ​ 319 ​ Consulting expense ​ 231 ​ 189 ​ Telephone ​ 170 ​ 157 ​ Directors' compensation ​ 246 ​ 224 ​ Audit and accounting ​ 135 ​ 111 ​ Insurance ​ 102 ​ 95 ​ Director, officer, and employee expense ​ 79 ​ 58 ​ Legal fees ​ 66 ​ 120 ​ Office supplies and stationary ​ 51 ​ 50 ​ Recruiting expense ​ 27 ​ 2 ​ ​ ​ $ 2,634 ​ $ 2,091 ​ ​ ​ ​ Note 14 — Stock Compensation Plans At a special shareholders meeting held on September 29, 2022, the Company’s shareholders approved the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan whereby 1,369,771 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved from authorized but unissued shares for purposes of grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units to selected employees and non-employee directors of the Company. The product of the number of shares granted and the grant date market price of the Company’s common stock determine the fair value of restricted stock under the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive plan. Management recognizes compensation expense for the fair value of restricted stock on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 132,759 shares available for future awards under this plan, which includes 98,311 shares available for stock options and 34,448 shares available for restricted stock awards. 33 Table of Contents A summary of the Company’s restricted stock activity and related information for the three months ended March 31 follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2024 ​ ​ ​ ​ Weighted ​ ​ ​ ​ Average ​ Shares Market Price Outstanding at December 31, 2023 ​ ​ 352,037 $ 13.67 Granted ​ ​ — ​ — Forfeited ​ ​ — ​ — Vested ​ ​ — ​ — Outstanding at March 31, 2024 ​ ​ 352,037 ​ $ 13.67 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2023 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Weighted ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Average ​ Shares Market Price Outstanding at December 31, 2022 ​ ​ 352,037 $ 13.67 Granted ​ ​ — ​ — Forfeited ​ ​ — ​ — Vested ​ ​ — ​ — Outstanding at March 31, 2023 ​ ​ 352,037 ​ $ 13.67 ​ Compensation expense related to restricted stock was $ 252,000 and $ 241,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Note 15 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvement: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, which incorporates several SEC disclosure requirements into US GAAP and adds interim and annual disclosure requirements to a variety of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, including those focusing on accounting changes, earnings per share, debt and repurchase agreements. For entities subject to the SEC disclosure requirements and those “required to file or furnish financial statements with or to the SEC in preparation for the sale of or for purposes of issuing securities that are not subject to contractual restrictions on transfer,” the US GAAP requirements will be effective when the removal of the related SEC rule is effective. Early adoption is not permitted for these entities. For all other entities, the effective date will be two years later, and early adoption is permitted. That is, financial statements issued after the effective date of each amendment are required to include on a prospective basis the related disclosure incorporated into US GAAP by this ASU. However, if the SEC does not act to remove its related requirements by June 30, 2027, any related FASB amendments will be removed from the Codification and will not be effective for any entities. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, requires the amount of net income taxes paid for federal, state, and foreign taxes, as well as the amount paid to any jurisdiction that net taxes exceed a 5% quantitative threshold. The amendments will require the disclosure of pre-tax income disaggregated between domestic and foreign, as well as income tax expense disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign. The amendment also eliminates certain disclosures related to unrecognized tax benefits and certain temporary differences. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted in any annual period where financial statements have not yet been issued. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis but retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of the standard to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. 35 Table of Contents In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), amended the guidance in ASC 718 to add an example showing how to apply the scope guidance to determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for as share-based payment arrangements. For public business entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements. This ASU removes various references to the FASB’s Concepts Statements from the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification. The FASB does not expect these updates to have a significant effect on current accounting practice. That is because in most cases the amendments to the Codification remove references to Concept Statements that are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. However, the FASB has provided transition guidance if applying the updated guidance results in accounting changes for some entities. The amendments in ASU 2024-02 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. ​
