LAWRENCEBURG, Ind., April 11, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DSA Financial Corporation (OTCBB: DSFN ) announced its financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014. The Company recorded net earnings of $210,000, or $0.13 per share, reflecting a decrease of $17,000 as compared to the same quarter ended March 31, 2013, when the Company reported net earnings of $227,000, or $0.14 per share.
The quarter-to-quarter decrease in earnings was attributed primarily to a $89,000, or 12.7%, increase in general, administrative and other expense, offset primarily by a $35,000, or 25.4%, increase in other income and a $40,000 decrease in provision for losses on loans. General, administrative and other expense was higher due to a $91,000 increase in operating expenses in our subsidiary which owns two properties acquired through foreclosure. Other income was higher due to a $65,000 insurance claim offset by $29,000 decrease on the gain on sale of loans.
Net earnings for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 were $711,000, or $0.44 per share, a decrease of $114,000, or 13.8%, as compared to the nine month period ended March 31, 2013. The decrease in earnings was attributed primarily to a $67,000, or 2.3%, decrease in net interest income, a $244,000, or 36.0%, decrease in other income and a $42,000, or 1.9%, increase in general, administrative and other expense partially offset by a decrease of $179,000 in provision for losses on loans and a $60,000, or 14.6%, decrease in income taxes. General, administrative and other expense was higher due to property acquired through foreclosure expenses showing an increase of $54,000 as compared to the period ended March 31, 2013. Other income was lower due to a $294,000 decrease on the gain on sale of loans and a $43,000 decrease on the gain on sale of Other Real Estate Owned. These decreases were partially offset by the aforementioned $65,000 insurance claim mentioned above.
