Wake Forest Bancshares, Inc. Announces First Quarter Results
WAKE FOREST, N.C., Jan. 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wake Forest Bancshares, Inc., (OTC BB: WAKE) parent company of Wake Forest Federal Savings and Loan Association, announced today that the Company reported earnings of $304,551 or $0.28 per share for its quarter ended December 31, 2020. The Company reported earnings of $350,678 or $0.32 per share for the same quarter a year earlier. In announcing the earnings, Renee H. Shaw, President and Chief Executive Officer stated that given the challenging times, the Company’s quarterly results exceeded our expectations and the budgetary amounts established at the beginning of its fiscal year. However, earnings for the current quarter continue to be adversely impacted by the Federal Reserve Board’s policy decision in March of 2020 to decrease rates by a combined 150 basis points as a result of the economic impact of the COVID 19 pandemic. As a result, short term rates remain effectively at or near -0- percent and the Company’s overall interest rate margin contracted from 3.56% during the comparable quarter a year ago to 3.07% for its current quarter ended December 31, 2020. Economic conditions and residential home sales continue to be stable in our local markets. Our real estate markets benefit because we are a part of the Research Triangle area which is consistently recognized as one of the top regions in the country for innovation, economic activity and quality of life issues. During the most recent quarter, sales activity remained resilient not only due to historically low mortgage rates, but also because of sizable gains in home prices during the past six months and extremely tight housing inventories. There has been no significant effect on the local housing market as of yet from the COVID 19 pandemic. The Company’s loan portfolio has largely remained unchanged from levels outstanding a year ago. The Company was particularly pleased with its lending performance during the current quarter because given the economic impact of the pandemic, a significant decline was possible, particularly since the size of the Company’s loan portfolio was not distorted by any short term PPP loans. In addition, the pandemic has yet to impact the credit quality of our loan portfolio, perhaps because pandemic financial assistance in the form of stimulus payments, low interest government supported loans, and enhanced unemployment insurance payments have masked the potential long term effects of the economic slowdown. During the spring of 2020 the Company provided loan modifications to certain borrowers adversely and directly impacted by the pandemic but those accommodations ended in September of 2020 and all modified loans have since returned to scheduled payment status. The Company was delighted to report that it had no problem assets or loan charge-offs during the current quarter. As a result, no additional loan loss provisions were considered necessary because of our healthy level of existing loss allowances. The Company’s loan loss allowance amounted to approximately 2.13% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2020. The Company will continue to evaluate the effects of the lingering pandemic on credit quality and consider any future accommodations or adjustments to its loss allowances. Total assets of the Company amounted to $108,818,331 at December 31, 2020. Total loans receivable and deposits outstanding at December 31, 2020 amounted to $67,649,933 and $81,074,284, respectively. Wake Forest Bancshares Inc.’s tier 1 capital leverage ratio was 24.29% at December 31, 2020. Wake Forest Bancshares, Inc. has 1,098,190 shares of common stock outstanding. Based in Wake Forest, North Carolina since 1922, the Company conducts business as Wake Forest Federal from its office in Wake Forest, (Wake County), North Carolina. Contact: Renee H.

Wake Forest Bancshares, Inc. Announces Year End Results
WAKE FOREST, N.C., Dec. 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wake Forest Bancshares, Inc., (OTC BB: WAKE) parent company of Wake Forest Federal Savings and Loan Association, announced today that the Company reported earnings of $1,170,850 or $1.06 per share for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2020.

In announcing the earnings, Renee H. Shaw, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated that given the challenging times, the Company’s fiscal year end and quarterly results were in line with expectations and surprisingly slightly less than budgetary amounts established at the beginning of the year. Earnings for both the current quarter and the Company’s fiscal year were adversely impacted by Federal Reserve rate movements over the past fifteen months but specifically during the month of March, 2020. The Fed decreased rates by a combined 225 basis points since July of 2019, including 150 basis points in March 2020 alone as a result of the economic impact of the COVID 19 pandemic. As a result, the Company’s interest rate margin contracted from 3.69% during its year ended September 30, 2019 to 3.23% for its current fiscal year end. At September 30, 2020, the Company’s net interest rate spread was 2.96%. In addition, the Company incurred approximately $100,000 in data processing expense associated with a core processing conversion this year which impacted current year results.Economic conditions and residential home sales continue to be stable in our local markets. Our real estate markets benefit because we are a part of the Research Triangle area which is consistently recognized as one of the top regions in the country for innovation, economic activity and quality of life issues. During the most recent quarter, sales activity remained resilient not only due to historically low mortgage rates, but also because of stable home prices and tight housing inventories. Although there has been no significant effect on the local housing market as of yet, the COVID 19 pandemic created a sizable increase in the local unemployment rate. However, the pandemic has yet to impact the credit quality of our loan portfolio, perhaps because requested loan modifications and pandemic financial assistance in the form of stimulus payments and enhanced unemployment insurance payments have masked the potential long term effects of the economic slowdown. Earlier forms of government assistance have now essentially ended and the future of additional governmental support is uncertain. In addition, the Company provided loan modifications to certain borrowers adversely and directly impacted by the pandemic but those accommodations have also recently ended. The Company will continue to evaluate the actual impact of the lingering pandemic on credit quality and consider any future accommodations or adjustments to its loss allowances.The Company’s loan portfolio has largely remained unchanged from levels outstanding a year ago. The Company was particularly pleased with its lending performance this past year because given the economic impact of the pandemic, a significant decline was possible, particularly since the size of the Company’s loan portfolio was not distorted by any short term PPP loans. In addition, the Company’s operations continue to be positively impacted by the absence of nonperforming assets and the lack of need for additional loan loss provisions. The Company was delighted to report that it had no problem assets or loan charge-offs during the current year. As a result, no additional loan loss provisions were considered necessary this year because of our healthy level of loss allowances.
