Interest expense increased to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Deposits decreased to $556.5 million at September 30, 2019, from $607.0 million at June 30, 2019. The large decreases in total assets, cash and cash equivalents, and deposits were due to approximately $55.3 million in deposits from a public entity that collects real estate taxes that was on deposit at June 30, 2019 and withdrawn in the three months ended September 30, 2019, when tax monies were distributed. Total borrowings, including repurchase agreements, increased to $35.1 million at September 30, 2019 from $26.0 million at June 30, 2019. Stockholders’ equity decreased to $77.3 million at September 30, 2019 from $82.5 million at June 30, 2019. Equity decreased primarily due to a repurchase of 304,181 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of approximately $6.8 million and dividends payable of $521,000, partially offset by net income of $1.1 million, an increase of $870,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, and ESOP and stock equity plan activity of $160,000.
