The Kentucky First Federal Bancorp (“Kentucky First” or the “Company”) was incorporated under federal law in March 2005, and is the mid-tier holding company for First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Hazard, Hazard, Kentucky (“First Federal of Hazard”) and Frankfort First Bancorp, Inc. (“Frankfort First”). Frankfort First is the holding company for First Federal Savings Bank of Kentucky, Frankfort, Kentucky (“First Federal of Kentucky”). First Federal of Hazard and First Federal of Kentucky (hereinafter collectively the “Banks”) are Kentucky First’s primary operations, which consist of operating the Banks as two independent, community-oriented savings institutions.
In December 2012, the Company acquired CKF Bancorp, Inc., a savings and loan holding company which operated three banking locations in Boyle and Garrard Counties in Kentucky. In accounting for the transaction the assets and liabilities of CKF Bancorp were recorded on the books of First Federal of Kentucky in accordance with accounting standard ASC 805, Business Combinations.
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which represent the condensed consolidated balance sheets and results of operations of the Company, were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three-month period ended September 30, 2018, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for an entire fiscal year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K annual report for 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Frankfort First, and its wholly-owned banking subsidiaries, First Federal of Hazard and First Federal of Kentucky (collectively hereinafter “the Banks”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications - Certain amounts presented in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on prior years’ net income or shareholders’ equity.

1. Basis of Presentation (continued)
Adoption of New Accounting Standards - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606,) and subsequently issued several amendments to the standard. The primary principle of the guidance is that entities should recognize revenue in a manner consistent with the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that represents the consideration that the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 also requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Most of the revenues earned by the Company are excluded from the scope of the new standard. Revenue streams within the scope of this guidance include service charges and fees on deposits, interchange fees earned on payments processing, and certain components of other service charges, commissions and fees. The Company has analyzed each stream under Topic 606 and determined that there were no material changes to existing recognition practices except with regard to recognition of gain on the sale of other real estate owned (“REO.”) The Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09 effective July 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment of $441,000 directly to retained earnings as an offset to the carrying value of deferred revenue.
The Company’s revenue-generating activities accounted for under Topic 606 includes primarily service charges and fees on deposits and other service charges and fees and comprise the majority of other non-interest income on the statement of income.
Service charges and fees on deposits are primarily overdraft fees, dormant account fees, and service charges on checking and savings accounts. Overdraft fees are recognized at the time an account is overdrawn. Dormant account fees are recognized when an account is inactive for at least 365 days. Service charges on checking and savings accounts are primarily account maintenance services performed and recognized in the same calendar month. Other deposit-based service charges and fees include transaction-based services completed at the request of the customer and recognized at the time the transaction is completed. These transaction-based services include ATM usage and stop payment services. All service charges and fees on deposits are withdrawn from the customer’s account at the time the service is provided.
Other service charges and fees include interchange fees. Interchange fees are earned primarily from debit card holder transactions conducted through the Mastercard payment network and other networks, and such fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are received and recognized daily, concurrent with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder.
In January 2016, the FASB issued an update ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities and, in February 2018, issued an amendment for technical corrections and improvements related to this guidance. The amendments in this ASU require all equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through net income. Additionally, this ASU eliminates the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. Public business entities must use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-01 effective July 1, 2018, with no material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption. However, fair value estimates for all financial instruments now require exit price. Fair value disclosures, which can be found in Note 5, have been modified to consider the exit price notion.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards: (continued)
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 provide guidance on the following eight specific cash flow issues:
1. Debt Prepayment or Debt Extinguishment Costs;
2. Settlement of Zero-Coupon Debt Instruments or Other Debt Instruments with Coupon Interest Rates That Are Insignificant in Relation to the Effective Interest Rate of the Borrowing;
3. Contingent Consideration Payments Made after a Business Combination;
4. Proceeds from the Settlement of Insurance Claims;
5. Proceeds from the Settlement of Corporate-Owned Life Insurance Policies, including Bank-Owned Life Insurance Policies;
6. Distributions Received from Equity Method Investees;
7. Beneficial Interests in Securitization Transactions; and
8. Separately Identifiable Cash Flows and Application of the Predominance Principle.
The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-15 effective July 1, 2018, with no material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards:
FASB ASC 326 - In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The final standard will change estimates for credit losses related to financial assets measured at amortized cost such as loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, and certain other contracts. For estimating credit losses, the FASB is replacing the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model. The Company will now use forward-looking information to enhance its credit loss estimates. The amendment requires enhanced disclosures to aid investors and other users of financial statements to better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of our portfolio. The largest impact to the Company will be on its allowance for loan and lease losses, although the ASU also amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The standard is effective public companies for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, or in the Company’s case the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2020. ASU 2016-13 will be applied through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings (modified-retrospective approach), except for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date. A prospective transition approach is required for these debt securities. We have formed a functional committee that is assessing our data and system needs and are evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, but cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements. However, the Company does expect ASU 2016-13 to add complexity and costs to its current credit loss evaluation process.

New Accounting Standards (continued)
FASB ASC 310 – In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables- Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities, to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments requite the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The amendments in this update more closely align the amortization period of premiums and discounts to expectations incorporated in market pricing on the underlying securities, which, in turn, are expected to more closely align interest income recorded on bonds held at a premium or a discount with the economics of the underlying instrument. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and the interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Changes resulting from the amendments in this update should be recognized on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Additionally, in the period of adoption, an entity should provide disclosures about a change in accounting principle. Management elected to adopt the guidance in the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and there was not a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

3. Investment Securities (continued)
We evaluated securities in unrealized loss positions for evidence of other-than-temporary impairment, considering duration, severity, financial condition of the issuer, our intention to sell or requirement to sell. Those securities were agency bonds, which carry a very limited amount of risk. Also, we have no intention to sell nor feel that we will be compelled to sell such securities before maturity. Based on our evaluation, no impairment has been recognized through earnings.

Troubled Debt Restructurings:
A Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) is the situation where the Bank grants a concession to the borrower that the Banks would not otherwise have considered due to the borrower’s financial difficulties. All TDRs are considered “impaired.” During the three months ended September 30, 2018, a secondary mortgage loan of $219,000 was renewed and an additional $30,000 was loaned to a borrower to finish construction of an 8-plex. The construction project had experienced cost overruns. The Company carries the first mortgage on this project and both the primary and secondary loans are secured by the 8-plex and additional real estate collateral. At September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company had $1.9 million and $1.7 million of loans classified as TDRs, respectively. Of the TDRs at September 30, 2018, approximately 33.3% were related to the borrower’s completion of Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings with no reaffirmation of the debt to the Banks.

Credit Quality Indicators:
The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on an annual basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above-described process are considered to be pass rated loans. Loans listed that are not rated are included in groups of homogeneous loans and are evaluated for credit quality based on performing status. See the aging of past due loan table above. As of September 30, 2018, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows:

5. Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
ASC topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (exit price) at the measurement date. ASC topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in active markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Securities
Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. Level 2 securities include agency mortgage-backed securities and agency bonds.

5. Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities (continued)
Impaired Loans
At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is evaluated for loss based on the fair value of collateral securing the loan if the loan is collateral dependent. If a loss is identified, a specific allocation will be established as part of the allowance for loan losses such that the loan’s net carrying value is at its estimated fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. For collateral-dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.
Other Real Estate
Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

The following is a disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. For financial instruments where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value and other valuation methods.
The methods used are greatly affected by the assumptions applied, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Therefore, the fair values presented may not represent amounts that could be realized in an exchange for certain financial instruments.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from June 30, 2018 to September 30, 2018
Assets: At September 30, 2018, the Company’s assets totaled $316.7 million, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 0.5%, from total assets at June 30, 2018. This decrease was attributed primarily to decreases in loans and time deposits in other financial institutions, which were somewhat offset by an increase in investment securities.
Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents decreased $12,000 or 0.1% to $9.9 million at September 30, 2018.
Time deposits in other financial institutions: Time deposits in other financial institutions decreased by $740,000 or 13.0% to $5.0 million at September 30, 2018, as short-term time deposits matured and we seek to employ liquidity at the highest earning level possible.
Investment securities: At September 30, 2018 our securities portfolio consisted of an agency bond and mortgage-backed securities. Investment securities increased $398,000 to $1.4 million at September 30, 2018.
Loans: Loans receivable, net, decreased by $1.4 million or 0.5% to $268.9 million at September 30, 2018. Management continues to look for high-quality loans to add to its portfolio and will continue to emphasize loan originations to the extent that it is profitable, prudent and consistent with our interest rate risk strategies.
Non-Performing and Classified Loans: At September 30, 2018, the Company had non-performing loans (loans 90 or more days past due or on nonaccrual status) of approximately $8.8 million, or 3.3% of total loans (including loans purchased in the acquisition), compared to $7.7 million or 3.1%, of total loans at June 30, 2018. The Company’s allowance for loan losses totaled $1.6 million million at both September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2018, represented 17.8% of nonperforming loans and 0.6% of total loans (including loans purchased in the acquisition), while at June 30, 2018, the allowance represented 20.6% of nonperforming loans and 0.6% of total loans.
The Company had $12.4 million in assets classified as substandard for regulatory purposes at September 30, 2018, including loans ($11.7 million) and real estate owned (“REO”) ($795,000), including loans acquired in the CKF Bancorp transaction. Classified loans as a percentage of total loans (including loans acquired) was 4.3% and 4.4% at September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively. Of substandard loans, 93.7% were secured by real estate on which the Banks have priority lien position.

At September 30, 2018, the Company’s real estate acquired through foreclosure represented 6.4% of substandard assets compared to 5.6% at June 30, 2018. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company sold property with a carrying value of $74,000 for $80,000, while during the year ended June 30, 2018, property with a carrying value of $133,000 was sold for $144,000. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company made made one loan totaling $80,000 to facilitate the purchase of its other real estate owned by qualified borrowers, while for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, $169,000 in loans to facilitate an exchange were made. Loans to facilitate the sale of other real estate owned, which were included in substandard loans, totaled $237,000 and $241,000 at September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively.

At September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company had $1.1 million of loans classified as special mention, respectively (including loans acquired in the CKF Bancorp transaction on December 31, 2012.) This category includes assets which do not currently expose us to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification, but do possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving our close attention.
Liabilities: Total liabilities decreased $1.9 million, or 0.7% to $249.3 million at September 30, 2018, primarily as a result of a decrease in FHLB advances, which decreased $3.0 million or 5.7% to $50.0 million at September 30, 2018. Short-term advances were repaid as the Company received loan repayments and additional retail deposits. Deposits increased $1.2 million or 0.6% and totaled $196.8 million at quarter end.
Shareholders’ Equity: At September 30, 2018, the Company’s shareholders’ equity totaled $67.4 million, an increase of $171,000 or 0.1% from the June 30, 2018 total. The change in shareholders’ equity was primarily associated with a change in accounting principle and net profits for the period less dividends paid on common stock.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from June 30, 2018 to September 30, 2018 (continued)
The Company paid dividends of $364,000 or 263.8% of net income for the three month period just ended. On July 5, 2018, the members of First Federal MHC for the seventh time approved a dividend waiver on annual dividends of up to $0.40 per share of Kentucky First Federal Bancorp common stock. The Board of Directors of First Federal MHC applied for approval of another waiver. The Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland has notified the Company that it did not object to the waiver of dividends paid by the Company to First Federal MHC, and, as a result, First Federal MHC will be permitted to waive the receipt of dividends for quarterly dividends up to $0.10 per common share through the third calendar quarter of 2019. Management believes that the Company has sufficient capital to continue the current dividend policy without affecting the well-capitalized status of either subsidiary bank. Management cannot speculate on future dividend levels, because various factors, including capital levels, income levels, liquidity levels, regulatory requirements and overall financial condition of the Company are considered before dividends are declared. However, management continues to believe that a strong dividend is consistent with the Company’s long-term capital management strategy. See “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018 for additional discussion regarding dividends.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Month Periods Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017
General
Net income totaled $138,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease of $142,000 or 50.7% from net income of $280,000 for the same period in 2017.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased $87,000 or 3.6% to $2.3 million for the three month period just ended. Interest income increased by $145,000, or 5.0%, to $3.0 million, while interest expense increased $232,000 or 49.6% to $700,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Interest income on loans increased $118,000 or 4.3% to $2.9 million, due primarily to an increase in the average volume of the loan portfolio. The average balance of the loan portfolio increased $12.5 million or 4.8% to $270.3 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2018, while the rate earned on the loan portfolio decreased 3 basis points to 4.27%. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities decreased $4,000 or 33.3% to $8,000 for the quarterly period just ended due to lower interest rate and volume of asset level. Interest income from interest-bearing deposits and other increased $30,000 or 25.2% to $149,000 for the quarter just ended primarily as a result of an increase in the average rate earned on those assets which increased 47 basis points to 2.9% compared to the period a year ago.
Interest expense on deposits increased $148,000 or 50.3% to $442,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, while interest expense on borrowings increased $84,000 or 48.3% to $258,000 for the same period. The increase in interest expense on deposits was attributed primarily to an increase in the average rate paid on deposits, which increased 27 basis points to 92 basis points for the recently ended quarter. The average balance of deposits increased $11.4 million or 6.3% to $192.4 million for the most recent period. The increase in interest expense on borrowings was attributed chiefly to higher interest rate levels. The average rate paid on borrowings increased 72 basis points to 210 basis points for the most recent period, while the average balance of borrowings outstanding decreased $1.3 million or 2.6% to $49.1 million for the recently ended three month period. Net interest yield decreased from 3.35% for the prior year quarterly period to 3.02% for the quarter ended September 30, 2018.

Kentucky First Federal Bancorp
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Month Periods Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 (continued)
Provision for Losses on Loans
The Company recorded a provision for losses on loans of $11,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to no provision for the three months ended September 30, 2017. There can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance will be adequate to absorb unidentified losses on loans in the portfolio, which could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income decreased $71,000 or 50.7% to $69,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily because of decreased gain on the sale of REO and increased write-downs on REO period to period. Net gain on sale of REO decreased $38,000 to $5,000 for the recently ended quarter compared to the prior year, while REO write-downs totaled $18,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to zero for the prior year period.
Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense increased $66,000 or 3.1% to $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to an increase in employee compensation and benefits expense, which resulted from increased costs associated with the Company’s defined benefit (“DB”) pension plan. Employee compensation and benefits increased $85,000 or 6.2% to $1.5 million for the quarter just ended due to increased funding of the DB plan, which increased $87,000 or 50.4% to $261,000 for the recently-ended quarter. The Company is required to maintain minimum funding levels for the DB plan or be subject to various limitations. Various factors contribute to the increased cost of the DB plan including a long period of low interest rates, higher administrative fees and higher Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation premiums. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $12,000 or 7.6% to $170,000 for the quarter just ended due primarily to amortization of recently-added data information system costs. Somewhat offsetting the increased expenses were decreased costs associated with auditing and accounting, other non-interest expense, foreclosure and REO expenses. Auditing and accounting expense decreased $32,000 or 48.5% to $34,000 for the three months just ended, while other non-interest expense decreased $12,000 or 5.5% to $205,000 for the most recent quarter ended, as management seeks to trim expenses. Foreclosure and REO expenses decreased $11,000 or 32.4% to $23,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, as the Company deals with fewer instances of REO.
Federal Income Tax Expense
Federal income taxes expense totaled $42,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $135,000 in the prior year period. The effective tax rates were 23.3% and 32.5% for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, primarily due to the change in income tax law, which reduced the top income tax rate for corporations beginning January 1, 2018.
