Earnings for the current quarter were impacted by $197,000 in merger-related expenses relating to the closing of the Fairmount acquisition and the pending merger with Fraternity Community Bancorp, Inc. ("Fraternity". Excluding merger expenses, the Company would have reported pre-tax income of $304,000 compared to pre-tax income of $99,000 for the same quarter a year ago--an increase of $205,000 or 207% quarter over quarter. For the nine months ending December 31, 2015, the Company reported a net loss of $210,000, or $(0.07) per common share, compared to a net loss of $173,000, or $(0.05) per common share, for the same period a year ago.

The increase in the most recent period is due to two commercial real estate loans to one borrower totaling $3.3 million that were placed on non-accrual in accordance with regulatory guidelines. Both loans to this borrower are classified as a Troubled Debt Restructure and the borrower continues to make interest-only payments as agreed to under the modified terms of these loans.

The Company was able to charge lower provisions despite organic loan growth as a result of its reduction in net charge-offs, including $304,000 in loan recoveries in the most recent quarter. In October 2015, the Company completed its due diligence and entered into a definitive agreement to merge with Fraternity. During the most recent quarter, the Company completed and submitted its regulatory applications. The Company is currently awaiting both regulatory and Fraternity shareholder approval for the potential acquisition.
