The parts that mattered.
Pulled out of the filing itself, with the figures the company reported.
- Quarterly profitability maintained
- Net income of $125,000 in Q3 2025 (diluted EPS $0.04) was essentially unchanged versus Q3 2024 net income of $129,000 (diluted EPS $0.04) — the Company remains profitable on a quarterly basis.
- YTD turned to profit
- Nine months ended September 30, 2025 net income was $66,277 versus a net loss of $(72,131) for the nine months in 2024, showing year-to-date improvement of $138,408.
- Deposit-funded balance sheet growth
- Total deposits increased $19,880,000 to $329,069,000 as of September 30, 2025 (from $309,189,000 at December 31, 2024), supporting loan growth.
- Loan growth
- Loans, net of deferred fees and costs increased to $215,320,000 at September 30, 2025 from $205,219,000 at December 31, 2024 (increase of $10,101,000).
- Mortgage activity contribution from acquisition
- Mortgage commissions were $192,000 in Q3 2025 (the line was $0 in Q3 2024), reflecting contribution from the August 15, 2025 acquisition of VA Wholesale Mortgage Incorporated.
- Improvement in accumulated other comprehensive income
- Other comprehensive income (net of tax) improved by $2,829,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, reducing accumulated other comprehensive loss to $(16,174,000) from $(19,003,000) at December 31, 2024.
And the other side of it.
The offsets in the same document — the things a summary that only listed the good news would have left out.
- Significant drop in cash & cash equivalents
- Cash and cash equivalents decreased $12,237,000 to $12,227,000 at September 30, 2025 from $24,464,000 at December 31, 2024, tightening short-term liquidity.
- Operating cash flow negative
- Net cash used in operating activities was $(1,218,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (compared with $756,000 provided in the prior year nine‑month period).
- Large unrealized losses in AFS portfolio
- Gross unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities totaled $22,335,000 as of September 30, 2025 (fair value $104,141,000), indicating interest-rate driven valuation pressure.
- Rising noninterest expense
- Noninterest expense increased to $3,271,000 in Q3 2025 from $2,991,000 in Q3 2024 (increase of $280,000), driven by higher salary and professional fees (salary & benefits $1,865,000; legal/professional $478,000).
- Allowance for credit losses modestly reduced
- Allowance for credit losses decreased to $2,568,000 at September 30, 2025 from $2,839,000 at December 31, 2024 (a decline of $271,000) while unfunded commitments remain $37.5 million, which could be a vulnerability if credit conditions worsen.
- Goodwill and integration costs from acquisition
- Goodwill of $317,000 appears on the September 30, 2025 balance sheet following the August 15, 2025 acquisition of VA Wholesale Mortgage Incorporated; integration could add near-term costs (Q3 legal/professional fees rose to $478,000).

What they said about what is next.
The MD&A does not provide explicit numeric fiscal guidance. Management completed the acquisition of VA Wholesale Mortgage on August 15, 2025 and states the acquisition 'is expected to enhance overall mortgage lending products and services,' but no quantitative outlook or numeric guidance ('expects to', 'anticipates') was provided in the 10-Q.
