Northeast Community Bancorp Reports Q2 2025 Earnings

Northeast Community Bancorp (Nasdaq: NECB) has announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, revealing strong earnings per share (EPS) amidst a backdrop of declining revenue. The bank reported diluted EPS of $0.82, exceeding analyst expectations of $0.79 by $0.03.

$25.93 million, falling short of estimates by $0.028 million. This figure represents a decline from $26.95 million in the same quarter one year ago. As a result, the net income for the second quarter was $11.2 million, down 13% from $12.8 million recorded in Q2 2024.

Half-Year Performance

$21.7 million, a decrease from $24.2 million in the same period in 2024. The net interest margin (NIM) saw a dip to 5.35%, compared to 5.79% one year prior. This decline was attributed to pressures from increased funding costs and compressed lending yields.

40.52% from 35.24% the previous year. This indicates that the operating expenses of the bank are rising quicker than its income, raising concerns about financial management. In addition, total assets diminished by $35.7 million, which is a 1.8% drop, leaving the total at $2.0 billion as of June 30, 2025, compared to year-end 2024.

Changes in Deposits

$191.2 million or 11.5%, largely driven by reductions in certificates of deposit. Despite these setbacks, the bank maintained a strong focus on construction lending, reporting $338.8 million in construction loan originations during the first half of 2025. This sector continues to attract attention, with management noting a strong demand for construction and cooperative building lending.

0.04% as of June 30, 2025, which suggests effective risk management in its lending practices. Additionally, non-interest income rose by 17.4%, totaling $858,000, helped along by increased loan fees and favorable market valuations of equity securities.

Rising Costs and Share Repurchases

non-interest expenses surged by 10.6%, mainly due to increases in salaries, employee benefits, real estate owned expenses, and data processing costs. This rising expense trend raises questions about the bank’s operational efficiency.

1.09 million shares repurchased at a cost of $17.2 million from May 2023 through June 30, 2025.

Future Insights

$636 million in yet-to-be-funded loan commitments, the bank is poised to keep its focus on growth, particularly in sectors like construction lending that show ongoing demand.
