EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

TEB Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company” or the “Registrant”), has been formed to serve as the holding company for The Equitable Bank, S.S.B. and subsidiaries (the “Bank”) as part of the Bank’s reorganization to the mutual holding company form of organization. As of March 31, 2019, the reorganization had not been completed, and, as of that date, the Registrant had no assets or liabilities, and had not conducted any business other than that of an organizational nature. Accordingly, unaudited financial and other information of the Bank is included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

 

On April 30, 2019, the Bank completed the reorganization into the mutual holding company structure, and the related stock offering of TEB Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), the Bank’s new holding company.  As a result of the reorganization, the Bank has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, the Company has issued and sold 49.9% of its outstanding shares in its stock offering, and the Company has issued 50.1% of its outstanding shares to TEB MHC, which is the Company’s mutual holding company.

 

As part of the reorganization, the Bank changed the fiscal year end from September 30 to June 30, effective June 30, 2018.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and other information contained in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Bank’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and for the year ended September 30, 2017 contained in the Company’s definitive prospectus dated February 11, 2019 (the “Prospectus”) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Securities Act Rule 424(b)(3) on February 22, 2019.

THE EQUITABLE BANK, S.S.B. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of March 31, 2019 (unaudited) and June 30, 2018 and for the Three and Nine Months Ended

March 31, 2019 and 2018 (Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Equitable Bank, S.S.B. (the “Bank”) is a state chartered mutual savings bank providing a full range of financial services. The Bank grants commercial, residential and consumer loans, and accepts deposits from customers primarily in the Metropolitan Milwaukee area, which is in southeastern Wisconsin. Equitable is subject to competition from other financial institutions and nonfinancial institutions providing financial products. Additionally, the Bank is subject to the regulations of certain regulatory agencies and undergoes periodic examination by those regulatory agencies.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Bank were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Bank as of and for the nine months ended June 30, 2018. Reference is made to the accounting policies of the Bank described in the Notes to the consolidated Financial Statements contained in the prospectus of TEB Bancorp, Inc. (“the Company”) dated February 11, 2019.

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2019, and for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 are unaudited and reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are the only adjustments contained in the interim financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the year ending June 30, 2019 or any other period.

 

The Bank evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Equitable Investment Corp. and Savings Financial Corporation. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management of the Bank is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the pension actuarial assumptions, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

 

Going Concern

 

On February 15, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Bank executed a Stipulation and Consent to the Issuance of an Amended Consent Order (“Consent Order”), jointly issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions (“WDFI”). Pursuant to the Consent Order, the Bank has taken certain actions to address issues identified by the FDIC and WDFI. The Consent Order requires the Bank to, among other things, (i) retain qualified management; (ii) increase Board oversight; (iii) maintain minimum Tier 1 capital of 8% of average assets and minimum total risk-based capital of 12% of risk weighted assets; revise the capital plan submitted to the FDIC and WDFI (iv) revise the written plan to manage concentrations of credit; (v) revise the written plan to reduce the level of loan relationships and real estate owned greater than $500,000 and 90 days delinquent or classified substandard or doubtful; (vi) obtain monthly Board approval of the allowance for loan losses; (vii) revise the profit plan; and (viii) provide written status reports to the FDIC following each quarter end. The Consent Order will remain in effect until terminated, modified, or suspended in writing by the FDIC or WDFI. Management is required to submit an annual budget to the regulatory agencies in response to the amended consent order. The most recent budget submitted was as of January 1, 2019. The compliance with these items is monitored by management and the Board of Directors on a monthly basis.

THE EQUITABLE BANK, S.S.B. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of March 31, 2019 (unaudited) and June 30, 2018 and for the Three and Nine Months Ended

March 31, 2019 and 2018 (Unaudited)

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements had been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Non-compliance with the regulatory Consent Order due to low levels of capital raised a substantial doubt about the ability of the Bank to continue as a going concern. Management has a plan to pursue reorganization to a mutual holding company and sell a minority share of the stock to the public which will increase capital levels. The Bank believes it has corrected all outstanding issues other than the low capital levels and returning to profitability. If the Bank is unable to achieve compliance with requirements of the Consent Order, the FDIC or WDFI could force a sale, liquidation, or federal conservatorship or receivership of the Bank. See Note 12 “Regulatory Capital Requirements” for additional information.  The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Ongoing liquidity is needed to meet the financial obligations that arise in the ordinary course of business.  Our primary needs for liquidity are to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers and to fund current and planned expenditures.  Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, proceeds from the sale of loans, and proceeds from maturities of securities.  We also have the ability to borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago and from U.S. Bank.  At March 31, 2019, we had a $100.3 million line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago, and had $45.1 million of borrowings outstanding as of that date. We also had a $5.0 million line of credit with U.S. Bank, with no borrowings outstanding as of that date. 

 

NOTE 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issues Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”s) to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). This section provides a summary description of recent ASUs that management expects may have an impact on the consolidated financial statements issued in the near future. Pursuant to final approvals with respect to the mutual holding reorganization, as discussed in Note 13, the Company will be classified as an emerging growth company and will elect to use the extended transition period for complying with any new or revised financial accounting standards provided pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Effective dates reflect this election.

 

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses which amends the implementation date for nonpublic entities’ annual financial statements to align with their interim financial statements and clarifies the scope of the guidance in ASU 2016-13. The update will allow management to delay implementation of ASU 2016-13 until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years, due to the Company’s status as an emerging growth company. Management is currently evaluating the impact of other aspects in the update on the Bank’s consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans, which amends the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. The amendments in this update removed disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities in fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. The Bank is required to adopt the new standard for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the adoption of the new standard on the Bank’s consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, including the removal, modification to, and addition of certain disclosure requirements. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted. The majority of the disclosure changes are to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently in the process of reviewing this ASU to determine whether the modifications within will be adopted prior to the effective date. Although this ASU has a significant impact to the Company’s fair value disclosures, no additional impact to the financial statements is expected.

 

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which amends FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases, to (1) add an optional transition method that would permit entities to apply the new requirements by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the year of adoption, and (2) provide a practical expedient for lessors regarding the separation of the lease and non-lease components of a contract. This guidance did not change management’s assessment of the impact of ASU No. 2016-02 on the Bank’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

 

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, leases to address certain narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU No. 2016-02. This guidance did not change management’s assessment of the impact of ASU No. 2016-02 on the Bank’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

 

In May 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-06, Codification Improvements to Topic 942, Financial Services - Depository and Lending. This update superseded outdated guidance related to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s Banking Circular 202, Accounting for Net Deferred Tax Charges. Management does not expect the new guidance to have a material impact on the Bank’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

 

NOTE 3 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and establishes a framework for measuring fair value.

 

To determine fair value the Bank utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Bank is able to classify fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

As of March 31, 2019 (unaudited) and June 30, 2018 and for the Three and Nine Months Ended

March 31, 2019 and 2018 (Unaudited)

 

>Level 1 - Fair value is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as listed equities and U.S. Treasury securities.

 

>Level 2 - Fair value is based upon quoted prices for similar, but not identical, assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. This also includes quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

>Level 3 - Fair value is based upon financial models using primarily unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the Bank's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

 

A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Assets

 

Available for sale securities Where quoted prices for securities are available in an active market, those securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If such quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows. Examples of securities with similar characteristics, which would generally be classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, include certain AAA-rated U.S. government sponsored agency securities, municipal obligations, and mortgage-backed securities. A security using financial models based upon primarily unobservable inputs, such as commercial paper, would generally be classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

 

Impaired Loans The Bank does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses may be established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the collateral exceeds the recorded investments in such loans and for which carrying amount will remain at amortized cost. Impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral or expected cash flows require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, less selling costs, the Bank records the impaired loan as a non-recurring Level 3 valuation. At March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, substantially all of the impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral with adjustments to their appraised values ranging from 5-15% for selling costs.

 

Other real estate owned, net Assets on which the underlying collateral has been repossessed are initially recorded at the fair market value of the real estate acquired less estimated costs to sell.

 

Subsequently, other real estate owned is carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, less selling costs, the Bank records the repossessed asset as a non-recurring Level 3 valuation. At March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018 substantially all of the Other real estate owned was evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral with adjustments to their appraised values ranging from 5-15% for selling costs.

Financial Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Accounting guidance requires disclosures of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments and the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate their fair values. Certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments are excluded from the scope of the guidance. Accordingly, the fair value disclosures required by the guidance are only indicative of the value of individual financial instruments, as of the dates indicated and should not be considered an indication of the fair value of Bank.

The methods and assumptions that were used to estimate the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis have been previously disclosed. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

 

Cash and cash equivalents – Due to their short term nature, the carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value and is categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Interest bearing deposits in banks – The carrying amount approximates fair value and is categorized in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Available for sale securities – The fair value is estimated using quoted market prices or by using pricing models and is categorized in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank stock – No secondary market exists for FHLB stock. The stock is bought and sold at par by the FHLB and management believes the carrying amount approximates fair value and is categorized in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Loans– The fair value of variable rate loans that reprice frequently are based on carrying values. The fair value of other loans is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates at which similar

loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and is categorized in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Loans held for sale – Fair value is based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market prices and is categorized in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Accrued interest receivable – The carrying amount approximates fair value and is categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Deposits – Fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as demand deposits, savings, and money market accounts, by definition, is the amount payable on demand on the reporting date. Fair value of fixed rate time deposits is estimated using discounted cash flows applying interest rates currently offered on similar time deposits. Deposits are categorized in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Loans are individually evaluated for impairment once a weakness or adverse trend is identified that may jeopardize the repayment of the loan in accordance with the terms of the loan.

 

The following are the Bank’s risk rating definitions:

 

Pass: Loans in this category are to persons or entities that span from having financial characteristics of unquestioned strength to entities that have potential risks that if left uncorrected could at some point result in deterioration of the Bank’s credit position. Loans in this category are rated “1” through “4” with the lower risk being identified with a lower numerical rating. General characteristics that are monitored include borrower net worth, liquidity and entity profitability.

 

Special Mention: Loans in this category contain some weakness or potential weakness that if left uncorrected may result in the deterioration of the repayment capacity. Loans in this category are rated as a “5”.

 

Substandard: Loans in this category exhibit the same characteristics as “5” rated credits and are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor and/or of the collateral pledged as security for the asset. Loans in this category are rated as a “6”.

 

Real Estate in Judgement: Loans in this category have been placed in non-accrual and the Bank has taken legal action to preserve its position. Loans in this category are rated as a “7”.

 

The following is a summary of loans by risk rating:

Certain directors and executive officers of the Bank, and their related interests, had loans outstanding in the aggregate amounts of $1,050,336 and $1,080,125 at March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively.

 

Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) involve the granting of some concession to a distressed borrower resulting in a loan modification such as; payment schedule changes, interest rate reductions, or principal charge-offs. There were no new TDRs during the nine months ending March 31, 2019. There were also no TDRs that defaulted during the period that were modified within the previous nine months as of March 31, 2019. There were no TDRs as of March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018. There was one accruing commercial non-owner occupied property in the amount of $1,407,541 that transferred out of TDR status for the nine months ending June 30, 2018.

 

Loans that have previously been restructured in a troubled debt restructuring and are no longer impaired based on the terms specified in their restructuring agreement and are now at a rate equal to or greater than a rate the Bank is willing to accept for a loan with comparable risk are transferred out of TDR status.  All loans transferred out of TDR status during 2018 have met the above criteria.

NOTE 8 – Borrowings

 

Borrowings consist of the following:

 

   March 31, 2019   June 30, 2018 
FHLB variable rate advance (2.01% as of June 30, 2018)  $-   $4,100,000 
FHLB fixed rate advance (1.73-2.04%, matures July 2018)   -    17,900,000 
FHLB fixed rate advance (2.07-2.09%, matures August 2018)   -    5,000,000 
FHLB fixed rate advance (2.12%, matures September 2018)   -    9,000,000 
FHLB fixed rate advance (2.15%, matures October 2018)   -    5,000,000 
FHLB fixed rate advance (2.22%, matures November 2018)   -    5,000,000 
FHLB fixed rate advance (2.56-2.61%, matures April 2019)   36,400,000    - 
FHLB fixed rate advance (2.65%, matures July 2019)   8,700,000    - 
   $45,100,000   $46,000,000 

 

The Bank has a master contract agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), which provides for borrowing up to the maximum $100,336,556 at March 31, 2019. The FHLB provides both fixed and floating rate advances. The Bank has an open line of credit with the FHLB with a variable interest rate. There were $0 and $4.1 million outstanding advances on the open line of credit as of March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively.

 

Additionally, the Bank had $45,100,000 and $41,900,000 outstanding in term advances at March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The advances are collateralized by a security agreement pledging a portion of the Bank's real estate mortgages.

 

The Bank has an agreement with U.S. Bank, which provides for borrowing up to the maximum of $5,000,000, at March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018. There were no amounts outstanding as of March 31, 2019 or June 30, 2018.

 

NOTE 9 – Income Taxes

 

The Bank recognized no income tax expense for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019.  Comparatively, this is the first fiscal year of interim consolidated financial statements prepared for the Bank in current form, so management is unable to estimate the tax expense attributed to the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2018.  However, a tax benefit of $425,000 was recognized for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018 primarily as a result of changes in the adoption of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017 allowing Alternative Minimum Tax credits to be refundable and a true up of prior period tax payable balances.  At the end of each interim period, we estimate the effective tax rate we expect to be applicable for the full fiscal year and this rate is applied to the results for the year to date period, and adjusted for any items that are considered discrete in accordance with ASC 740-270.  The primary difference between the statutory tax rate and the effective rate for the period ending March 31, 2019 would be the anticipated change in valuation allowance.  Management records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to not be realized.  All applicable impacts of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act have been reflected in the adopted period of fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.

 

NOTE 10 – Defined Benefit Pension Plan

 

The Bank’s Defined Benefit Pension Plan (the “Plan”) covers substantially all employees hired prior to March 31, 2012. The benefits are based on years of service and the employee's average monthly pay received during the five highest consecutive calendar years in the last 10 years of employment under the Plan. Management contributes annually the amounts necessary to provide for defined benefit payments upon retirement or death as determined by the Plan's actuary. The defined benefit pension plan was frozen effective March 31, 2012 for all employees. No additional benefits are being accrued for active participants after this date, and no new participants will be entered into the Plan.

THE EQUITABLE BANK, S.S.B. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of March 31, 2019 (unaudited) and June 30, 2018 and for the Three and Nine Months Ended

March 31, 2019 and 2018 (Unaudited)

 

In accordance with accounting guidance for defined benefit plans, the Bank recognizes the funded status of defined benefit pension and other post-retirement plans as a net asset or liability on its consolidated balance sheet.

 

Comparatively, this is the first interim consolidated financial statement prepared for the Bank in current form, so management is unable to estimate the pension expense attributed to the three or nine month periods ended March 31, 2018.  The Bank recognized pension income of $30,000 for the three months ended and $93,555 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019.

 

The Bank has a valuation of the Plan completed at fiscal year ending June 30, therefore, there is not a change in pension obligation shown in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) or in the condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity as of March 31, 2019.

 

NOTE 11 – Commitments and Contingencies

 

In the normal course of business, the Bank is involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, financial guarantees and standby letters of credit. They involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of amounts recognized on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and issuing letters of credit as they do for on-balance-sheet instruments.

 

A summary of the contract or notional amount of the Bank's exposure to off-balance-sheet risk is as follows:

 

   March 31, 2019   June 30, 2018 
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk:          
Commitments to extend credit to borrowers  $18,142,736   $18,708,308 
Sold loan commitments   19,494,809    17,437,885 
Credit card commitments   643,265    639,878 

 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties. Credit card commitments are unsecured.

 

As of March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, the Bank does not engage in the use of interest rate swaps, futures or option contracts.

NOTE 12 – Regulatory Capital Requirements

 

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. The final rules implementing BASEL Committee on Banking Supervisor’s Capital Guidance for U.S. banks (“BASEL III rules”) became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015, with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule and fully phased in by January 1, 2019.

 

Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.

 

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table that follows) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), Tier 1 Common Equity (as defined), and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined).

 

As of March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, the Bank was categorized as adequately capitalized. To be categorized as adequately capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, Tier I common equity, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. As of March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, the Bank did not meet all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject under the Consent Order. Management submits a capital plan and annual budget to the regulatory agency in response to the capital levels of the Bank. The most recent budget submitted was as of January 1, 2019.

 

On September 6, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Bank adopted a plan to pursue reorganization to a mutual holding company and sell a minority share of the stock to the public in order to increase capital levels. For more information, see Note 13.

 

Listed below is a comparison of the Bank's actual capital amounts with the minimum requirements for adequately capitalized banks, as defined by the federal regulatory agencies' Prompt Corrective Action Rules, and the requirements of the Consent Order, as of March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018. Under Basel III rules, the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer was phased in to 2.50% effective January 1, 2019. Failure to maintain the full amount of the buffer will result in restrictions on the Bank’s ability to make discretionary payments.

A Wisconsin state-chartered savings bank is required by state law to maintain minimum net worth in an amount equal to at least 6.0% of its total assets. At March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, the Bank’s net worth was approximately $14,042,619 and $14,102,132 or 4.6% and 4.5% of total assets, respectively, which falls below the state of Wisconsin’s minimum net worth requirements.

 

NOTE 13 – Plan of Reorganization and Change in Corporate Form

 

On September 6, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Bank adopted a Plan of Reorganization from a Mutual Savings Bank to a Mutual Holding Company (the “Reorganization”). The Reorganization has the approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the WDFI and the FDIC and was approved by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the total votes eligible to be cast by the voting members of the Bank at a special meeting was held on April 3, 2019. Pursuant to the Reorganization, the Bank proposes to reorganize into a mutual holding company form of ownership. The Bank will convert to a stock savings bank and issue all of its outstanding stock to a new holding company, which will be named TEB Bancorp, Inc. Pursuant to the Reorganization, the new holding company will sell stock to the public, with the total offering value and number of shares of common stock based upon an independent appraiser’s valuation. The stock will be priced at $10.00 per share. TEB Bancorp, Inc. will be organized as a Maryland corporation and will offer 49.9% of its common stock to be outstanding to the Bank’s eligible members and certain other persons. TEB MHC will be organized as a Wisconsin mutual holding company and will own 50.1% of the common stock of TEB Bancorp, Inc. to be outstanding upon completion of the reorganization and stock offering.

 

As part of the reorganization, the Bank changed the fiscal year end from September 30 to June 30.

 

The costs of the reorganization and the issuing of the common stock will be deferred and deducted from the sales proceeds of the offering. If the reorganization is unsuccessful, all deferred costs will be charged to operations. As of March 31, 2019, $985,138 of reorganization costs had been incurred.

 

NOTE 14 – Subsequent Events

 

On April 30, 2019, the Bank completed the reorganization into the mutual holding company structure, and the related stock offering of TEB Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), the Bank’s new holding company.  As a result of the reorganization, the Bank has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, the Company has issued and sold 49.9% of its outstanding shares in its stock offering, and the Company has issued 50.1% of its outstanding shares to TEB MHC, which is the Company’s mutual holding company.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in the Company’s Prospectus.

 

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018

 

Total assets decreased $7.8 million, or 2.5%, to $305.6 million at March 31, 2019 from $313.4 million at June 30, 2018. The decrease in assets related primarily to decreases in loans held for sale and cash and cash equivalents.

 

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $2.2 million, or 36.3%, to $3.9 million at March 31, 2019 from $6.1 million at June 30, 2018. This fluctuation in cash and cash equivalents is a normal part of business operations.

 

Loans held for sale decreased $4.7 million, or 72.7%, to $1.8 million at March 31, 2019 from $6.4 million at June 30, 2018. We currently sell a majority of the fixed-rate one- to four-family residential real estate loans that we originate. The balances at any month end vary based on the timing and volume of loan originations and sales. The purchase market can be somewhat seasonal.

 

Net loans held for investment decreased $2.8 million, or 1.1%, to $261.2 million at March 31, 2019 from $264 million at June 30, 2018. We also had decreases in one- to four-family non-owner occupied residential real estate loans of $2.8 million or 11.8% to $21.0 at March 31, 2019 from $23,8 million, and in commercial real estate loans of $2.0 million, or 6.4%, to $29.6 million at March 31, 2019 from $31.6 million at June 30, 2018. We also experienced a decrease in construction, land and development loans of $1.5 million, or 31.6%, to $3.3 million at March 31, 2019 from $4.8 million at June 30, 2018. The decrease in construction loans resulted from the completion of a construction project and the related $2.0 million loan being converted to permanent financing. The decrease in one- to four-family non-owner occupied residential real estate loans is due to property sales on the underlying collateral. The decrease in commercial real estate loans was primarily related to non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans; we have limited our originations of these types of loans in recent years. Multifamily residential real estate loans increased $3.6 million, or 5.0%, to $74.7 million at March 31, 2019 from $71.1 million at June 30, 2018, and one- to four-family owner-occupied residential real estate loans increased $907,000, or 0.7%, to $123.5 million at March 31, 2019 from $122.6 million at June 30, 2018. The increase in multifamily residential real estate loans resulted from our continued focus on originating these types of loans.

 

Available-for-sale securities remained relatively unchanged, totaling $21.5 million at March 31, 2019 and $20.9 million at June 30, 2018. In recent periods, we have invested excess cash in higher-yielding loans instead of lower-yielding securities as we have been able to grow our loan portfolio.

 

Total deposits decreased $2.8 million, or 1.1%, to $241.7 million at March 31, 2019 from $244.5 million at June 30, 2018. The decrease was due to a decrease in certificates of deposit of $10.6 million, or 10.8%, to $87.3 million at March 31, 2019 from $97.9 million at June 30, 2018. In recent periods we have generally experienced certificate of deposit runoff at maturity because of our inability to pay competitive rates on deposits due to our classification as “adequately capitalized” for regulatory capital purposes, instead funding our operations with borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. Our classification as “adequately capitalized” (rather than “well-capitalized”) for regulatory capital purposes restricts our ability to accept, renew or roll over brokered deposits, and further restricts us from paying interest rates on deposits that exceed 75 basis points above national rates, as posted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Although we have received a waiver from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation that permits us to use local market area rates instead of national rates as the baseline in determining interest rates we may pay on deposits, this restriction has limited our ability to compete for deposits in our market area, based on interest rates, in the current market rate environment. Partially offsetting this decrease, we experienced a $5.6 million, or 8.7%, increase in demand deposits to $70.2 million at March 31, 2019 from $64.5 million at June 30, 2018. Also helping to offset this decrease was an increase in interest-bearing savings and NOW accounts of $2.2 million, or 2.7%, to $84.2 million at March 31, 2019 from $82.0 million at June 30, 2018, due to an increase focus on acquiring commercial deposit customers as well as receiving subscription funds prior to March 31, 2019, as part of our stock offering.

Borrowed funds, consisting solely of Federal Home Loan Bank advances, decreased $900,000, or 2.0%, to $45.1 million at March 31, 2019 from $46.0 million at June 30, 2018. We have had to rely on borrowings to fund our operations in recent periods as a result of deposit runoff, described above. We may use a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to repay Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

 

Total equity decreased $60,000, or 0.4%, to $14.0 million at March 31, 2019 from $14.1 million at June 30, 2018. We experienced a net loss of $469,000 during the nine months ended March 31, 2019, partially offset by a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $409,000, or 18.5%.

 

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018

 

General. Net loss was $281,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to net loss of $660,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The change was primarily due to an increase in net interest income and a decrease in non-interest expense, offset by a decrease in provision for loan losses, described in more detail below.

 

Interest Income. Interest income increased $267,000, or 9.4%, to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Interest income on loans, which is our primary source of interest income, increased $232,000, or 8.6%, to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our annualized average yield on loans increased 21 basis points to 4.48% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from 4.27% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, reflecting recent increases in market interest rates. In addition, the average balance of loans increased $9 million, or 3.6%, to $261.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $252.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $317,000, or 77.7%, to $724,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $407,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, due to increases in the interest rate environment during the period.

 

Interest expense on FHLB borrowings increased $226,000 to $346,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $120,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This increase resulted from increases in both the average balance of FHLB borrowings and the average rate we paid on FHLB borrowings. The average balance of borrowings increased $23.1 million, or 73.5%, to $54.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $31.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and the annualized average rate we paid on borrowings increased 102 basis points to 2.54% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from 1.52% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. As described above, in recent periods, we have relied on borrowings to fund our operations as a result of certificate of deposit runoff. The increase in rates paid on FHLB borrowings reflects recent increases in market interest rates.

 

Interest expense on deposits increased $90,000, or 31.3%, to $378,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $288,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Specifically, interest expense on certificates of deposit increased $91,000, or 34.6%, to $355,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $264,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase resulted from a 56 basis point increase in the annualized average rate we paid on certificates of deposit to 1.61% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from 1.05% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, reflecting recent increases in market interest rates. This was partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposit, which decreased $12.7 million, or 12.6%, to $88.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $101.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. As described above, in recent periods we have generally experienced certificate of deposit runoff at maturity because of our inability to pay competitive rates on deposits due to our classification as “adequately capitalized” for regulatory capital purposes, instead funding our operations with borrowings.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $50,000, or 2.0%, to $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily as a result of a higher balance of borrowings and higher rates paid on certificates of deposit, as discussed above. In addition, our net interest rate spread decreased by 23 basis points to 3.28% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from 3.51% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and our net interest margin decreased by 20 basis points to 3.34% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from 3.54% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as our cost of funds increased faster than the increase in the yield earned on interest-earning assets.

 

Provision for Loan Losses. Provisions for loan losses are charged to operations to establish an allowance for loan losses at a level necessary to absorb known and inherent losses in our loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of the financial statements. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management analyzes several qualitative loan portfolio risk factors including, but not limited to, management’s ongoing review and grading of loans, facts and issues related to specific loans, historical loan loss and delinquency experience, trends in past due and non-accrual loans, existing risk characteristics of specific loans or loan pools, changes in the nature, volume and terms of loans, the fair value of underlying collateral, changes in lending personnel, current economic conditions and other qualitative and quantitative factors which could affect potential credit losses. See Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 6 “Allowance for Loan Losses” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

 

After an evaluation of these factors, we recorded no provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and recorded a provision of $425,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 due to a $904,000 charge-off on a non-owner occupied commercial loan. Our allowance for loan losses was $1.3 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.49% at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, while the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 99.82% at March 31, 2019 and 98.21% at December 31, 2018.

 

To the best of our knowledge, we have recorded all loan losses that are both probable and reasonable to estimate at March 31, 2019.  However, future changes in the factors described above, including, but not limited to, actual loss experience with respect to our loan portfolio, could result in material increases in our provision for loan losses. In addition, the WDFI and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as an integral part of their examination process, will periodically review our allowance for loan losses, and as a result of such reviews, we may have to adjust our allowance for loan losses.

 

Non-interest Income. Non-interest income increased $5,000, or 1.0%, to $497,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $492,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Gain on sale of mortgage loans (consisting solely of one- to four-family residential real estate loans) increased $11,000, or 4.3%, to $261,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $250,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. We sold $17.9 million of mortgage loans during the 2019 period compared to $21.7 million of such sales during the 2018 period, but experienced higher sales margins during the 2019 period.

 

Non-interest Expenses. Non-interest expenses decreased $59,000, or 1.8%, and were $3.2 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Compensation and benefits expense decreased $78,000, or 4.1%, to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as we accrued income related to our pension plan, and as we experienced a decrease in payroll expense, partially due to lower loan officer compensation as a result of decreased loan origination volume. In addition, advertising costs decreased $41,000, or 45.5%, to $49,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $90,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as a result of our continued efforts to reduce expenses. Professional fees increased $34,000 or 180.0% to $53,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $19,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 due to increased costs of being a public company. Other expenses decreased $32,000 or 13.6% to $202,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $234,000 as of March 31, 2018 due to various factors including a reduction in deposit account charge-offs, reduced legal fees related to other real estate owned, and lower miscellaneous mortgage expense.

 

Income Tax Expense. We recognized no income tax expense or benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2019. We did recognize a tax benefit of $61,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 due to a refund of Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) credit carryforwards under the Tax Cut and Jobs Act.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018

 

General. Net loss was $469,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, compared to net loss of $398,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. The change was due primarily to decreases in net interest income and non-interest income, partially offset by a decrease in provision for loan losses, described in more detail below.

 

Interest Income. Interest income increased $508,000, or 5.8%, to $9.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $8.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. Interest income on loans, which is our primary source of interest income, increased $412,000, or 4.9%, to $8.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $8.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. Our annualized average yield on loans increased 14 basis points to 4.48% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from 4.34% for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, reflecting recent increases in market interest rates. In addition, the average balance of loans increased $4.3 million to $261.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $257.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $844,000, or 76.0%, to $2.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $1.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, due to increases in the interest rate environment.

 

Interest expense on FHLB borrowings increased $610,000 to $854,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $244,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. This increase resulted from increases in both the average balance of FHLB borrowings and the average rate we paid on FHLB borrowings. The average balance of borrowings increased $24.0 million to $47.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $23.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, and the annualized average rate we paid on FHLB borrowings increased 100 basis points to 2.41% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from 1.41% for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. As described above, in recent periods, we relied on borrowings to fund our operations as a result of certificate of deposit runoff. The increase in rates paid on borrowings reflects recent increases in market interest rates.

 

Interest expense on deposits increased $234,000, or 27.0%, to $1.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $867,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. Specifically, interest expense on certificates of deposit increased $239,000, or 30.2%, to $1.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $791,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. The increase resulted from a 52 basis point increase in the annualized average rate we paid on certificates of deposit to 1.49% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from 0.97% for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, reflecting recent increases in market interest rates. This was partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposit, which decreased $16.5 million, or 15.2%, to $92.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $108.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. As described above, in recent periods we have generally experienced certificate of deposit runoff at maturity because of our inability to pay competitive rates on deposits due to our classification as “adequately capitalized” for regulatory capital purposes, instead funding our operations with borrowings.

 

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $337,000, or 4.4%, to $7.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $7.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, primarily as a result of a higher balance of borrowings and higher rates paid on certificates of deposit, as discussed above. In addition, our net interest rate spread decreased by 25 basis points to 3.38% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from 3.63% for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, and our net interest margin decreased by 22 basis points to 3.44% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from 3.66% for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, as our cost of funds increased faster than the increase in the yield earned on interest-earning assets.

 

Provision for Loan Losses. Provisions for loan losses are charged to operations to establish an allowance for loan losses at a level necessary to absorb known and inherent losses in our loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of the financial statements.

After an evaluation of these factors, we recorded no provision for loan losses for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and recorded a provision of $425,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018 due to a $904,000 charge-off on a non-owner occupied commercial loan. Our allowance for loan losses was $1.3 million at March 31, 2019 and at June 30, 2018. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.49% at March 31, 2019 and 0.50% at June 30, 2018, while the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 99.82% at March 31, 2019 and 91.68% at June 30, 2018.

 

To the best of our knowledge, we have recorded all loan losses that are both probable and reasonable to estimate at March 31, 2019.  However, future changes in the factors described above, including, but not limited to, actual loss experience with respect to our loan portfolio, could result in material increases in our provision for loan losses. In addition, the WDFI and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as an integral part of their examination process, will periodically review our allowance for loan losses, and as a result of such reviews, we may have to adjust our allowance for loan losses.

 

Non-interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $196,000, or 10.5%, to $1.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $1.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. Gain on sale of mortgage loans (consisting solely of one- to four-family residential real estate loans) decreased $176,000, or 16.6%, to $883,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $1.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, as we sold $67.3 million of mortgage loans during the 2019 period compared to $86.9 million of such sales during the 2018 period. In addition, there was no gain on sale of other real estate owned for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $71,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, as we sold five properties during the 2018 period, compared to three sales for no gain during the 2019 period.

 

Non-interest Expenses. Non-interest expenses decreased $99,000 to $9.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $9.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. Compensation and benefits expense decreased $178,000, or 3.1%, to $5.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $5.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, as we experienced a decrease in payroll expense, partially due to lower loan officer compensation as a result of decreased loan origination volume. In addition, professional fees increased $99,000, or 176.4%, to $155,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from $56,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, due to increase costs of being a public company.

 

Income Tax Expense. We recognized no income tax expense or benefit for the nine months ended March 31, 2019. We recognized a tax benefit of $61,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018 due to a refund of AMT credit carryforwards under the Tax Cut and Jobs Act.

Average Balance Sheets

 

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information at and for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments have been made, as the effects would be immaterial. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accrual loans were included in the computation of average balances. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts, and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or interest expense. Loan balances exclude loans held for sale.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity describes our ability to meet the financial obligations that arise in the ordinary course of business. Liquidity is primarily needed to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers and to fund current and planned expenditures. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, proceeds from the sale of loans, and proceeds from maturities of securities. We also have the ability to borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago and from U.S. Bank. At March 31, 2019, we had a $100.3 million line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago, and had $45.1 million of borrowings outstanding as of that date. We also had a $5.0 million line of credit with U.S. Bank, with no borrowings outstanding as of that date.

While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. Our most liquid assets are cash and short-term investments including interest-bearing demand deposits. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending, and investing activities during any given period.

 

Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.4 million and $2.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and the nine months ended March 31, 2018, respectively. Net cash provided by investing activities, which consists primarily of disbursements for loan originations and the purchase of securities, offset by principal collections on loans, and proceeds from maturing securities and pay downs on securities, was $1.8 million and $5.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and the nine months ended March 31, 2018, respectively. Net cash used in financing activities, consisting of activity in deposit accounts and borrowings, was $(5.5) million and ($8.9) million for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and the nine months ended March 31, 2018, respectively.

 

We are committed to maintaining a strong liquidity position. We monitor our liquidity position on a daily basis. We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to meet our current funding commitments. Based on our deposit retention experience, current pricing strategy and regulatory restrictions, we anticipate that a substantial portion of maturing time deposits will be retained, and that we can supplement our funding with borrowings in the event that we allow these deposits to run off at maturity.

 

TEB Bancorp, Inc. expects to initially invest the net proceeds it retains from the offering in securities issued by the U.S. government and its agencies or government sponsored enterprises, and as otherwise permitted under our investment policy.  TEB Bancorp, Inc. may use a portion of the net proceeds to finance the possible acquisition of other financial service businesses.  We may also use the net proceeds for other general corporate purposes. 

 

The Equitable Bank intends to use the proceeds it receives to originate loans.  It may also purchase securities as permitted under our investment policy, repay Federal Home Loan Bank advances, expand its banking franchise organically through de novo branching or establishing loan production offices, or expand through acquisitions of branch offices, or other financial service businesses.  The Equitable Bank may also use the proceeds it receives to support new loan, deposit or other financial products and services, and for general corporate purposes.

 

At March 31, 2019, The Equitable Bank was classified as “adequately capitalized” for regulatory capital purposes.
