Together

President’s Letter

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

When Romain Fry and his fellow visionaries 
founded what was then Minerva National Bank 
in 1965, they started with $300,000 in capital, 
five employees, and a modern bank building 
on Route 30, just east of downtown Minerva, 
a village 25 miles 
southeast of Canton. 
The founders were 
responding to bank 
consolidations that 
they believed were 
restricting access to 
the capital needed to grow businesses and farms 
in their local communities. Ultimately, they were 
investing in their town because, as entrepreneurs, 
they believed that they could make a difference. 
Over the past 58 years, a unique mix of 

Original Minerva National Bank building opened in 1965.

In fiscal year 2023, the bank reached 
an industry milestone, as it crossed 
the $1 billion in assets threshold.

shareholders, 
directors, employees, 
and customers 
embraced the 
original vision and 
contributed to the 

bank’s growth and success. In fiscal year 2023, 
the bank reached an industry milestone, as it 
crossed the $1 billion in assets threshold.

2024. To counter  
the continued margin 
pressure, we have 
prioritized efforts to  
gain lower-cost 
transactional deposit 
accounts and increase 
noninterest income.

The company also realized record core earnings 
(net of PPP-related earnings) in fiscal year 2023.  
In a period marked by unprecedented market 
rate increases, inflationary pressures, an 
increasingly competitive deposit environment, 
and a stalled residential 
mortgage market, 
core 2023 earnings 
increased by $1.63 
million, or 18% to $10.67 
million. During this 
period, higher yields 
on new loans, slower 
loan runoff, and the 
bank’s legacy transaction and savings account 
balances all reduced the impact of rising  
rates on our net interest margin. 2023 
continued a trend in which asset growth has 
resulted in operating efficiencies. At 2.27,  
the bank’s total operating expense to asset  
ratio declined eight basis points from  
quarter-end June 2022 and is 11 basis points 
lower than our regulatory peer group. Since 

Since 1965, the cumulative trust and support 
of our customers has made Consumers a 
$1 billion community bank. Focusing on the 
needs of one customer at a time, we have 
built diversified deposit and loan portfolios. 
56% of deposit balances are held in personal 
accounts, and 42% are held in non-personal 
account types. 60% of deposits are checking 
or traditional savings products. Developed

over a large, diverse territory, our stable core 
deposit base showed its collective confidence 
in the bank as deposit and repurchase balances 
increased to $48 million, or 5% during the six-
month period ending June 30, 2023 — a period 
when the industry absorbed the fallout from 
the March 2023 banking crisis. During the 
same period, the bank’s uninsured deposit 
ratio, a measure of reliance on large, non-core 
deposits, decreased to approximately 28%, which 
includes fully collateralized public funds. Net of 
public funds, the ratio is approximately 18%.

The bank strives for a stable loan portfolio  
that represents the diversity of our markets and 
customer base. While total loan production, 
including residential mortgage loans originated 
for sale, decreased by 20% to $255 million, the 
bank’s portfolio growth of $99 million was 
dispersed across these main portfolios.

Over the last 10 years, outstanding 
loan balances have increased at a 
12.5% compounded annual growth 
rate, without sacrificing credit  
quality or underwriting standards. 

Over the last 10 years, outstanding loan balances 
have increased at a 12.5% compounded annual 
growth rate, without sacrificing credit quality or 
underwriting standards. Through fiscal year 2023, 
net charge-off and delinquency ratios continued 
to trend downward and were consistently lower 
than that of our peers throughout the growth 
period. Since 2018, Consumers’ total past-due 
loan ratio has averaged 72 basis points below 
the average of our regulatory peer group. 
Consumers Bank has evolved into a full-service 
commercial lender with growing residential 
and consumer loan departments. With this 
growth, the bank has maintained a fundamental 
commitment to credit quality across all business 
lines. At June 30, nonaccrual loans were 0.01% 
of total loans, and net charge-offs in 2023 totaled 
0.04% of average loans outstanding. We will

weather economic pressures.

The commercial portfolio, which comprises 67% 
of total bank commitments, is diversified in both 
industry segments and in number of individual 
credit concentrations. The five largest industry 
segments represent 1,319 individual credits and 
only account for 48% of total loan balances.

While our residential mortgage business was 
down close to 50% in fiscal year 2023, the 
purchase mortgage market has shown signs of 
life, and our pipeline has once again started to 
grow as borrowers get used to higher market 
interest rates and take advantage of our robust 
secondary market and portfolio product lines. 
We also believe that there are opportunities to 
help consumers manage their credit card debt 
load by taking advantage of the substantial gains 
in equity that homeowners have experienced 
over the past few years.

We realized a 33% increase in personal  
installment lending in 2023 and expect continued 
growth as we add to our in-market dealer 
network and increase cross-selling efforts in the 
branches. We believe our focus on credit quality 
(763 weighted average credit score in 2023)  
and loan structure (86% weighted average loan  

Market interest rates, which rose rapidly and 
have stayed higher for longer, continue to 
impact the fair value of the bank’s securities 
portfolio. The $38 million valuation adjustment 
at June 30 and the related $30 million 
accumulated comprehensive loss are temporary 
and pertain to the market rates. This unrealized 
loss in securities is temporary and is adjusted 
monthly for additional market interest rate 
fluctuations, principal paydowns, calls, and 
maturities. Consumers has significant sources  
of liquidity and, therefore, does not expect  
to have to sell securities to fund growth.

Along the journey to $1 billion, the bank has 
methodically expanded its market area, which 
now encompasses a unique mix of rural, urban, 
and suburban communities. With more than 
half of our locations developed or acquired 
since 2011, Consumers now has 22 offices 
across six Ohio counties.

Our 11 business bankers, six mortgage loan 
officers, and three commercial deposit specialists 
work together to develop business in these and 
the 14 surrounding counties, a 9,000-square-
mile territory that includes seven separate MSAs 
in three states. There are 1.5 million households

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholders,

It has been my privilege to serve on the Board 
of Directors of Consumers Bancorp, Inc., for 
over 36 years, and it is with great pride and 
gratitude that I share my thoughts on what  
it means to reach $1 billion in assets. When  
I reflect on the bank’s significant growth since 
1965, I credit the investment of our local 
shareholders, the tenacity of the Board of 
Directors, the focus of local management and 
staff, and the support of our local businesses, 
organizations, and individuals who enabled 
Consumers to reach this benchmark and  
to make a difference in 22 local communities.

When the founders came together to raise the 
required capital to open this bank, they were 
relentless in their pursuit. We hear many stories 
from original shareholders who were asked to 
invest in the new local bank, many of whom and 
whose family members continue to hold those 
shares today. They have seen their investment 
grow with the bank through stock splits, 
increased share price, and consistent dividends. 
We are grateful to those of you who took a 
chance on the new local bank and to all of our 
shareholders who have supported Consumers 
throughout the past 58 years.

You can see that same tenacity our founding 
directors possessed in the Board members 
today. They are invested, committed, and 
diligent in their support of the bank, and they

step up to meet any challenges we face.  
The Board is made up of diverse individuals  
with a broad spectrum of expertise that live 
and work in the various communities served 
by Consumers. Diversity is valued as it brings 
options, open discussion, and thought-provoking 
concepts and ideas, yet the Board of Directors 
has remained united from day one in the mission 
to make a difference in the communities served 
by Consumers National Bank.

Our staff is made up of local, experienced 
bankers who are capable and dedicated  
to serving you. They keep their eye on the  
ball and are focused on 
meeting the bank’s goals.  
They make a significant 
impact in expanding and 
growing the bank and 
in making Consumers 
“the community bank.” 
We hear from our 
customers, our partners, 
and our community 
the stories of how their 
community banker has 
gone above and beyond to help a customer  
and how our staff is cooperative, prepared,  
and equipped with the necessary expertise to 
respond to our auditors and banking partners. 
We are proud of our leaders and associates  
who have propelled this bank forward.

We understand that the success of our customers 
is the success of Consumers. Providing our 
customers with the community bank experience 
is what sets us apart. When we provide a small 
business the funding to purchase equipment  
or expand their operation, or when we make  
a personal loan to a customer for their first car, 
or guide a family through the process of buying 
their first home, it is a rewarding experience for 
both the customer and the banker. It is why they 
want to refer their family and friends. It is why 
we are thankful they chose Consumers as their 
lender of choice. It is why as of June 30, 2023, 
Consumers loan balances were at $710.4 million.

Although deposits are not a bank asset,they  
are leveraged to fund loans, which make up the 
majority of Consumers’ assets. The expansion 
of our branch network to 21 branches and the 
increase in our deposit base provide a good 
way to measure overall growth. The following 
deposits as of June 30, 2023, show the 
expansion and growth of Consumers. Minerva, 
our first office founded in 1965, had deposits  
of $130.2 million, and Salem, our second office, 
opened in 1975, had $76.2 million. Carrollton, 
opened in 1994, and Lisbon, in 2000, had $83.0 
million and $73.3 million in deposits, respectively.

The Board is made up of 
diverse individuals with a broad 
spectrum of expertise that  
live and work in the  
various communities served 
by Consumers.

Branches with over 
$50 million in deposits 
include Alliance  
(1999), Calcutta (2021), 
and Jackson-Belden 
(2012), totaling over 
$163 million, and  
those with over $30 
million are Bergholz 
(2017), East Canton 
(2000), Louisville 
(2000), Hartville  

(2011), Malvern 2006), Waynesburg (1986), and 
Wellsville (2021), totaling over $269 million.  
The remaining branches, Adena (2020), Brewster 
(2019),Dillonvale (2020), Fairlawn (2018), Green 
(2021), Hanoverton (1989), and Mt. Pleasant 
(2020), contributed over $157 million in deposits.

Thank you to our shareholders, customers, 
directors, management, and associates. 
Together, we grew to $1.0 billion in assets, 
and together, we will move forward.

Laurie McClellan

Item 1—Business  
(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)  

General  

Consumers Bancorp, Inc. (Corporation) is a bank holding company as defined under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, 
as amended (BHCA), and is a registered bank holding company under that act and was incorporated under the laws of the State of 
Ohio in 1994. In February 1995, the Corporation acquired all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Consumers National Bank 
(Bank), a bank chartered under the laws of the United States of America. The Corporation’s activities have been limited primarily 
to holding the common stock of the Bank. 

Consumers National Bank is a community-oriented financial institution that offers a wide range of commercial and consumer 
loan and deposit products, as well as mortgage, financial planning and investment services to individuals, farmers and small and 
medium sized businesses in our markets. Since 1965, the Bank’s main office has been serving Minerva, Ohio, and surrounding areas 
from its location at 614 East Lincoln Way, Minerva, Ohio. The Bank seeks to be the provider of choice for financial solutions to 
customers who value exceptional personalized service, local decision making, and modern banking technology. The Bank’s business 
involves attracting deposits from businesses and individual customers and using such deposits to originate commercial, mortgage 
and consumer loans in its market area, consisting primarily of Carroll, Columbiana, Jefferson, Mahoning, Stark, Summit and Wayne 
counties in Ohio. Its market includes these counties as well as the contiguous counties in northeast Ohio, western Pennsylvania, and 
northern West Virginia. As of June 30, 2023, the Bank had 21 full-service branch locations and one loan production office. The 
Bank also invests in securities consisting primarily of obligations of U.S. government-sponsored entities, municipal obligations and 
mortgage-backed securities issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae. 

On  July 16,  2021,  the  Corporation  completed  its  acquisition  (branch  acquisition)  of  two  branches  located  in  Calcutta  and 
Wellsville, Ohio from CFBank, National Association. In connection with the branch acquisition, the Corporation assumed $104,538 
in branch deposits for a deposit premium of 1.75%. In addition, the Corporation acquired $15,602 of subordinated debt securities 
issued by unrelated financial institutions, $19,943 of loans, and recorded goodwill of $1,616. This transaction qualified as a business 
combination. 

Supervision and Regulation  

The Corporation and the Bank are subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Board of 
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve Board), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and other 
federal  and  state  regulators.  The  regulatory  framework  is  intended  primarily  for  the  protection  of  depositors,  federal  deposit 
insurance funds and the banking system as a whole and not for the protection of shareholders and creditors. Earnings and dividends 
of the Corporation are affected by state and federal laws and regulations and by policies of various regulatory authorities. Changes 
in  applicable  law  or  in  the  policies  of  various  regulatory  authorities  could  affect  materially  the  business  and  prospects  of  the 
Corporation and the Bank. The following describes selected federal and state statutory and regulatory provisions that have, or could 
have, a material impact on the Corporation. The following discussion of supervision and regulation is qualified in its entirety by 
reference to the statutory and regulatory provisions discussed. 

Regulation of the Corporation  

The Bank Holding Company Act: As a bank holding company, the Corporation is subject to regulation under the BHCA, 
and  the  examination  and  reporting  requirements  of  the  Federal  Reserve  Board.  Under  the  BHCA,  the  Corporation  is  subject  to 
periodic examination by the Federal Reserve Board and is required to file periodic reports regarding its operations and any additional 
information that the Federal Reserve Board may require. 

The BHCA generally limits the activities of a bank holding company to banking, managing or controlling banks, furnishing 
services  to  or  performing  services  for  its  subsidiaries  and  engaging  in  any  other  activities  that  the  Federal  Reserve  Board  has 
determined to be so closely related to banking or to managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident to those activities. In 
addition, subject to certain exceptions, the BHCA requires every bank holding company to obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve 
Board prior to acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank, acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% 
of the voting shares of a bank or merging or consolidating with another bank holding company. 

Under Federal Reserve Board policy, a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to each 
subsidiary  bank  and  to  commit  resources  to  support  those  subsidiary  banks.  Under  this  policy,  the  Federal  Reserve  Board  may 

4 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
  
  
  
  
  
require a bank holding company to contribute additional capital to an undercapitalized subsidiary bank and may disapprove of  the 
payment of dividends to shareholders if the Federal Reserve Board believes the payment of such dividends would be an unsafe or 
unsound practice. The Federal Reserve Board has extensive enforcement authority over bank holding companies for violations of 
laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. 

Privacy Provisions of Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act: The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 contains extensive provisions on a 
customer’s  right  to  privacy  of  non-public  personal  information.  Under  these  provisions,  a  financial  institution  must  provide  its 
customers  with  the  institution’s  policies  and  procedures  regarding  the  handling  of  customers’  non-public  personal  information. 
Except  in  certain  cases,  an  institution  may  not  provide  personal  information  to  unaffiliated  third  parties  unless  the  institution 
discloses  that  such  information  may  be  disclosed,  and  the  customer  is  given  the  opportunity  to  opt  out  of  such  disclosure.  The 
Corporation  and  the  Bank  are  also  subject  to  certain  state  laws  that  deal  with  the  use  and  distribution  of  non-public  personal 
information. 

Sarbanes-Oxley Act: The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 contains important requirements for public companies in the areas of 
financial disclosure and corporate governance. In accordance with section 302(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, written certifications 
by  the  Corporation’s  Chief  Executive  Officer  and  Chief  Financial  Officer  are  required.  These  certifications  attest  that  the 
Corporation’s quarterly and annual reports filed with the SEC do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state 
a material fact. 

Regulation of the Bank  

As a national bank, the Bank is subject to regulation, supervision, and examination by the OCC and by the Federal Deposit 

Insurance Corporation (FDIC). These examinations are designed primarily for the protection of the depositors of the Bank. 

Dividend  Restrictions:  Dividends  from  the  Bank  are  the  primary  source  of  funds  for  payment  of  dividends  to  the 
Corporation’s shareholders. There are statutory limits, however, on the amount of dividends the Bank can pay without regulatory 
approval.  Under  regulations  promulgated  by  the  OCC,  the  Bank  may  not  declare  a  dividend  in  excess  of  its  undivided  profits. 
Additionally, the Bank may not declare a dividend if the total amount of all dividends, including the proposed dividend, declared by 
the Bank in any calendar year exceeds the total of its retained net income of that year to date, combined with its retained net income 
of the two preceding years, unless the dividend is approved by the OCC. The Bank may not declare or pay any dividend if, after 
making the dividend, the Bank would be “undercapitalized,” as defined in the federal regulations. 

FDIC:  The  FDIC  is  an  independent  federal  agency,  which  insures  the  deposits  of  federally  insured  banks  and  savings 
associations up to certain prescribed limits and safeguards the safety and soundness of financial institutions. The deposits of the 
Bank  are  subject  to  the  deposit  insurance  assessments  of  the  Deposit  Insurance  Fund  of  the  FDIC.  Under  the  FDIC’s  deposit 
insurance  assessment  system,  the  assessment  rate  for  any  insured  institution  varies  according  to  regulatory  capital  levels  of  the 
institution and other factors such as supervisory evaluations. 

The FDIC is authorized to prohibit any insured institution from engaging in any  activity that poses a serious threat to the 
insurance fund and may initiate enforcement actions against banks, after first giving the institution’s primary regulatory authority 
an opportunity to take such action. The FDIC may also terminate the deposit insurance of any institution that has engaged in or is 
engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable 
law, order or condition imposed by the FDIC. 

Current Expected Credit Loss Model: In December 2018, the OCC, the Federal Reserve Board, and the FDIC issued a final 
rule to address regulatory treatment of credit loss allowances under the current expected credit loss (CECL) model. The rule revised 
the federal banking agencies’ regulatory capital rules to identify which credit loss allowances under the CECL model are eligible 
for inclusion in regulatory capital and to provide banking organizations the option to phase in over three years the day one  adverse 
effects on regulatory capital that may result from the adoption of the CECL model. The Bank adopted the CECL model on July 1, 
2023 since it’s a smaller reporting company and expects to elect to phase in the day-one effect of adopting CECL for regulatory 
capital purposes. 

Risk-Based Capital Requirements: The Federal Reserve Board and the OCC employ similar risk-based capital guidelines 
in  their  examination  and  regulation  of  bank  holding  companies  and  national  banks,  respectively.  The  Corporation  meets  the 
definition of a Small Bank Holding Company and, therefore, was exempt from maintaining consolidated regulatory capital ratios. 
Instead, regulatory capital ratios only apply at the subsidiary bank level. The guidelines involve a process of assigning various risk 
weights to different classes of assets, then evaluating the sum of the risk-weighted balance sheet structure against the capital base. If 
capital falls below the minimum levels established by the guidelines, the bank holding company or bank may be denied approval to 
acquire or establish additional banks or non-bank businesses or to open new facilities. In addition, failure to satisfy capital guidelines 
could  subject  a  banking  institution  to  a  variety  of  enforcement  actions  by  federal  bank  regulatory  authorities,  including  the 
termination of deposit insurance by the FDIC and a prohibition on the acceptance of “brokered deposits.”

Effective  January  1,  2020,  qualifying  community  banking  organizations  may  elect  to  comply  with  a  greater  than  9% 
community bank leverage ratio (CBLR) requirement in lieu of the currently applicable requirements for calculating and reporting 
risk-based capital ratios. The CBLR is equal to Tier 1 capital divided by average total consolidated assets. In order to qualify for the 
CBLR election, a community bank must (i) have a leverage capital ratio greater than 9 percent, (ii) have less than $10 billion in 
average total consolidated assets, (iii) not exceed certain levels of off-balance sheet exposure and trading assets plus trading liabilities 
and (iv) not be an advanced approaches banking organization. A community bank that meets the above qualifications and elects to 
utilize the CBLR is considered to have satisfied the risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the generally applicable capital 
rules and is also considered to be "well capitalized" under the prompt corrective action rules. The Bank has not elected to be subject 
to the CBLR. 

Unless a community bank qualifies for, and elects to comply with the CBLR beginning on January 1, 2020, national banks are 
required  to  maintain  the  Basel  III  minimum  levels  of  regulatory  capital.  The  Basel  III  capital  requirements  for  U.S.  banking 
organizations became effective on January 1, 2015 and were fully phased in by January 1, 2019. Under Basel III, the Bank is required 
to maintain a minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6%, a total capital ratio of 8%,  and a 
Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4%. Basel III also established a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% above the new regulatory minimum 
capital requirements, which effectively resulted in a minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 7%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 
8.5%, a total capital ratio of 10.5% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 6.5%. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses 
during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a common equity Tier 1 ratio to risk-weighted assets above the minimum 
but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of 
the shortfall. 

The OCC and the  FDIC may take various corrective actions against any undercapitalized bank and any bank that fails to 
submit an acceptable capital restoration plan or fails to implement a plan accepted by the OCC or the FDIC.  These powers include, 
but are not limited to, requiring the institution to be recapitalized, prohibiting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid, requiring 
prior  approval  of  capital  distributions  by  any  bank  holding  company  that  controls  the  institution,  requiring  divestiture  by  the 
institution of its subsidiaries or by the holding company of the institution itself, requiring new election of directors, and requiring 
the dismissal of directors and officers. The OCC’s final supervisory judgment concerning an institution’s capital adequacy could 
differ significantly from the conclusions that might be derived from the absolute level of an institution’s risk-based capital ratios. 
Therefore, institutions generally are expected to maintain risk-based capital ratios that exceed the minimum ratios. As of June 30, 
2023, the Bank exceeded minimum regulatory capital requirements to be considered well-capitalized.   

Dodd-Frank  Wall  Street  Reform  and  Consumer  Protection  Act:  The  Dodd-Frank  Wall  Street  Reform  and  Consumer 
Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) established the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), which regulates consumer financial 
products and services and certain financial services providers. The CFPB is authorized to prevent unfair, deceptive and abusive acts 
or practices and seeks to ensure consistent enforcement of laws so that consumers have access to fair, transparent and competitive 
markets for consumer financial products and services. Since it was established the CFPB has exercised extensive rulemaking and 
interpretive authority.  

Interstate Banking and Branching: The Interstate Banking and Branch Efficiency Act of 1995 has eased restrictions on 
interstate  expansion  and  consolidation  of  banking  operations  by,  among  other  things:  (i) permitting  interstate  bank  acquisitions 
regardless of host state laws, (ii) permitting interstate merger of banks unless specific states have opted out of this provision, and 
(iii) permitting banks to establish new branches outside the state provided the law of the host state specifically allows interstate bank 
branching. 

Community  Reinvestment  Act:  The  Community  Reinvestment  Act  (CRA)  requires  depository  institutions  to  assist  in 
meeting the credit needs of their market areas, including low- and moderate-income areas, consistent with safe and sound banking 
practices. Under this Act, each institution is required to adopt a statement for each of its market areas describing the depository 
institution’s efforts to assist in its community’s credit needs. Depository institutions are periodically examined for compliance and 
assigned ratings. Banking regulators consider these ratings when considering approval of a proposed transaction by an institution. 
The Bank’s most recent CRA rating is satisfactory. 

USA PATRIOT Act: In 2001, Congress enacted the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools 
Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Patriot Act). The Patriot Act is designed to deny terrorists and criminals 
the ability to obtain access to the United States’ financial system and has significant implications for depository institutions, brokers, 
dealers,  and  other  businesses  involved  in  the  transfer  of  money.  The  Patriot  Act  mandates  that  financial  services  companies 
implement  additional  policies  and  procedures  with  respect  to  additional  measures  designed  to  address  any  or  all  the  following 
matters: money laundering, terrorist financing, identifying and reporting suspicious activities and currency transactions, and currency 
crimes.

The Anit-Money Laundering Act: In 2021, Congress enacted the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (AMLA), which 
amended the Bank Secrecy Act of 1970 (BSA). The AMLA is intended to be a comprehensive reform and modernization to U.S. 
bank  secrecy  and  anti-money  laundering  laws.  Among  other  things,  the  AMLA  codifies  a  risk-based  approach  to  anti-money 
laundering  compliance  for  financial  institutions;  requires  the  development  of  standards  for  evaluating  technology  and  internal 
processes  for  BSA  compliance;  expands  enforcement-related  and  investigation-related  authority,  including  increasing  available 
sanctions for certain BSA violations and instituting BSA whistleblower initiatives and protections. 

Office of Foreign Assets Control Regulation: The U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) 
administers and enforces economic and trade sanctions against targeted foreign countries and regimes, under authority of various 
laws, including designated foreign countries, nationals and others. OFAC publishes lists of specially designated targets and countries. 
We are responsible for, among other things, blocking accounts of, and transactions with, such targets and countries, prohibiting 
unlicensed trade and financial transactions with them and reporting blocked transactions after their occurrence. Failure to comply 
with  these  sanctions  could  have  serious  financial,  legal  and  reputational  consequences,  including  applicable  bank  regulatory 
authorities not approving merger or acquisition transactions when regulatory approval is required or prohibiting such transactions 
even if approval is not required. Regulatory authorities have  imposed cease and desist  orders and civil money penalties against 
institutions found to be violating these obligations. 

Cybersecurity:  In  March  2015,  federal  regulators  issued  two  related  statements  regarding  cybersecurity.  One  statement 
indicates that financial institutions should design multiple layers of security controls to establish lines of defense and to ensure that 
their risk management processes also address the risk posed by compromised customer credentials, including security measures to 
reliably authenticate customers accessing internet-based services of the financial institution. The other statement indicates that a 
financial  institution’s  management  is  expected  to  maintain  sufficient  business  continuity  planning  processes  to  ensure  the  rapid 
recovery, resumption and maintenance of the institution’s operations after a cyberattack involving destructive malware. A financial 
institution  is  also  expected  to  develop  appropriate  processes  to  enable  recovery  of  data  and  business  operations  and  address 
rebuilding  network  capabilities  and  restoring  data  if  the  institution  or  its  critical  service  providers  fall  victim  to  this  type  of 
cyberattack. 

In  February  2018,  the  SEC  published  interpretive  guidance  to  assist  public  companies  in  preparing  disclosures  about 
cybersecurity  risks  and  incidents.  These  SEC  guidelines,  and  any  other  regulatory  guidance,  are  in  addition  to  notification  and 
disclosure requirements under state and federal banking law and regulations. In addition, in July 2023, the SEC adopted rules that 
require  disclosure  of  material  cybersecurity  incidents,  processes,  if  any,  for  assessing,  identifying  and  managing  material 
cybersecurity  risk  as  well  as  whether  any  risks  from  cybersecurity  threats,  including  as  a  result  of  any  previous  cybersecurity 
incidents, have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Corporation.  

In  November  2021,  the  OCC,  the  FRB  and  the  FDIC  issued  a final rule,  which became effective  in  May  2022,  requiring 
banking organizations that experience a computer-security incident to notify certain entities. A computer-security incident occurs 
when actual or potential harm to the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of an information system or the information occurs, or 
there is a violation or imminent threat of a violation to banking security policies and procedures. The affected bank must notify its 
respective federal regulator of the computer-security incident as soon as possible and no later than 36 hours after the bank determines 
a computer-security incident that rises to the level of a notification event has occurred. These notifications are intended to promote 
early  awareness  of  threats  to  banking  organizations  and  will  help  banks  react  to  those  threats  before  they  manifest  into  larger 
incidents. This rule also requires bank service providers to notify their bank organization customers of a computer-security incident 
that has caused, or is reasonably likely to cause, a material service disruption or degradation. 

Furthermore,  the  Cyber  Incident  Reporting  for  Critical  Infrastructure  Act,  enacted  in  March  2022,  will  require,  once 
administrative rules are adopted, certain covered entities, including those in the financial services industry, to report a covered cyber 
incident to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) within 72 hours 
after it reasonably believes an incident has occurred. Separate reporting to CISA will also be required within 24 hours if a ransom 
payment is made as a result of a ransomware attack. 

State  regulators  have  also  been  increasingly  active  in  implementing  privacy  and  cybersecurity  standards  and  regulations. 
Recently, several states have adopted regulations requiring certain financial institutions to implement cybersecurity programs and 
many  states  have  also  recently  implemented  or  modified  their  data  breach  notification,  information  security  and  data  privacy 
requirements. We expect this trend of state-level activity in those areas to continue and we are monitoring developments in the states 
in which our customers are located. 

In the ordinary course of business, electronic communications and information systems are relied upon to conduct operations, 
to deliver services to customers and to store sensitive data. The Corporation employs a variety of preventative and detective tools to 
monitor, block, and provide alerts regarding suspicious activity, as well as to report on any suspected advanced persistent threats. 
Risks and exposures related to cybersecurity attacks are expected to remain high for the foreseeable future due to the rapidly evolving 

7 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
nature and sophistication of these threats, increasing volume of attacks, as well as due to the expanding use of internet banking, 
mobile banking and other technology-based products and services by the Corporation and its customers. 

Government Monetary Policy: The earnings of the Corporation are affected by general and local economic conditions and 
by the policies of various governmental regulatory authorities. In particular, the Federal Reserve Board regulates money and credit 
conditions and interest rates to influence general economic conditions, primarily through open market acquisitions or dispositions 
of United States Government securities, varying the discount rate on member bank borrowings and setting reserve requirements 
against member and nonmember bank deposits. Federal Reserve Board monetary policies have had a significant effect on the interest 
income and interest expense of commercial banks, including the Bank, and are expected to continue to do so in the future. 

Executive and Incentive Compensation: Under the Dodd-Frank Act and rules adopted by the SEC in October 2022, public 
companies will be required, once stock exchanges adopt additional listing requirements, to adopt and implement “clawback” policies 
for incentive compensation payments and to disclose the details of the procedures for recovery of incentive compensation that was 
paid on the basis of erroneous financial information necessitating an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with 
financial reporting requirements.  Such clawback policies are intended to apply to compensation paid within the three  completed 
fiscal years immediately preceding the date the issuer is required to prepare a restatement and would cover all executives (including 
former executives) who received incentive awards. 

Employees  

As of June 30, 2023, the Bank employed 173 full-time and 21 part-time employees. None of the employees are represented 

by a collective bargaining group. Management considers its relations with employees to be good.

Management does not have knowledge of the prices paid in all transactions and has not verified the accuracy of those prices 
that have been reported. Because of the lack of an established market for the Corporation’s common shares, these prices may not 
reflect the prices at which the common shares would trade in an active market. 

The Corporation’s management is currently committed to continuing to pay regular cash dividends; however, there can be no 
assurance as to future dividends because they are dependent on the Corporation’s future earnings, capital requirements and financial 
condition.  The  Corporation’s  principal  source  of  funds  for  dividend  payment  is  dividends  received  from  the  Bank.  Banking 
regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior approval of regulatory agencies. Under these regulations, 
the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s net profits, combined with the retained 
net  profits  of  the  preceding  two  years,  subject  to  the  capital  requirements  described  above.  See  Note  1  and  Note  13  to  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 
for dividend restrictions. 

There were no repurchases of the Corporation’s securities during fiscal year 2023.

Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations  
(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)  

General  

The following is management’s analysis of the Corporation’s financial condition and results of operations as of and for the 
years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. This discussion is designed to provide a more comprehensive review of the operating results 
and financial position than could be obtained from an examination of the financial statements alone. This analysis should be read in 
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes and the selected financial data included elsewhere in 
this report. 

Forward-Looking Statements  

Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which are not statements of historical fact, constitute forward-
looking  statements  within  the  meaning  of  the  Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform  Act  of  1995.  The  words  “may,”  “continue,” 
“estimate,”  “intend,”  “plan,”  “seek,”  “will,”  “believe,”  “project,”  “expect,”  “anticipate”  and  similar  expressions  are  intended  to 
identify  forward-looking  statements. These  forward-looking  statements  may  involve  risks  and  uncertainties  that  are  difficult  to 
predict, may be beyond our control, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such statements. Any 
such  forward-looking  statements  are  made  only  as of  the  date  of  this  report  or  the  respective  dates  of  the  relevant  incorporated 
documents,  as  the  case  may  be,  and,  except  as  required  by  law,  we  undertake  no  obligation  to  update  these  forward-looking 
statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results for future periods to 
differ materially from those anticipated or projected include, but are not limited to:

changes  in  local,  regional  and  national  economic  conditions  becoming  less  favorable  than  we  expect,  resulting  in  a 
deterioration in asset credit quality or debtors being unable to meet their obligations because of high unemployment rates 
and inflationary pressures; 
rapid fluctuations in market interest rates could result in changes in fair market valuations and a decline in net interest 
income; 
changes in the level of non-performing assets and charge-offs; 
unanticipated changes in our liquidity position, including, but not limited to, changes in the cost of liquidity and our ability 
to find alternative funding sources; 
the effect of changes in laws and regulations (including laws and regulations concerning taxes, banking, securities, and 
insurance) with which we must comply; 
the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Federal 
Reserve Board; 
breaches of security or failures of our technology systems due to technological or other factors and cybersecurity threats;  
changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; 
declining asset values impacting the underlying value of collateral; 
changes in accounting policies, rules and interpretations; 
our ability to attract and retain qualified employees; 
competitive pressures on product pricing and services; and 
changes in the reliability of our vendors, internal control systems or information systems. 

The risks and uncertainties identified above are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently 
known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial also may adversely affect us. Should any known or unknown risks and 
uncertainties develop into actual events, those developments could have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, 
and results of operations.  

Overview  

Consumers Bancorp, Inc., a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of Ohio, owns all the issued and 
outstanding  capital  stock  of  Consumers  National  Bank,  a  bank  chartered  under  the  laws  of  the  United  States  of  America.  The 
Corporation’s  activities  have  been  limited  primarily  to  holding  the  common  stock  of  the  Bank.  The  Bank’s  business  involves 
attracting  deposits  from  businesses  and  individual  customers  and  using  such  deposits  to  originate  commercial,  mortgage  and 
consumer loans in its market area, consisting primarily of Carroll, Columbiana, Jefferson,  Mahoning, Stark, Summit, and Wayne 
counties in Ohio. Its market includes these counties as well as the contiguous counties in northeast Ohio, western Pennsylvania, and 
northern West Virginia. The Bank also invests in securities consisting primarily of U.S. government-sponsored entities, municipal 
obligations, mortgage-backed and collateralized mortgage obligations issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae. 

On July 16, 2021, the Corporation completed the branch acquisition and assumed $104,538 of branch deposits for a 1.75% 
deposit premium and purchased $15,602 in subordinated debt securities issued by unrelated financial institutions and $19,943  in

loans. In relation to the branch acquisition, the Corporation recorded goodwill of $1,616. This transaction qualified as a business 
combination. 

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Years Ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022  

Net Income. Net income was $10,674 for fiscal year 2023 compared with $11,192 for fiscal year 2022. The following key 

factors summarize our results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2023 compared with the same prior year period: 

● 

● 

● 

net interest income increased by $969, or 3.0%, in fiscal year 2023, primarily because of a $51,065, or 5.6%, increase 
in average interest-earning assets; 
a $855 provision for loan loss expense was recorded during fiscal year  2023 compared with $735 during fiscal year 
2022; and 
total other expenses increased by $1,470, or 6.3%, in fiscal year 2023 due to increases in salaries and employee benefits; 
occupancy and equipment expenses; and professional and director fees. 

Return on average equity and return on average assets were 20.27% and 1.05%, respectively, for fiscal year 2023 compared 

with 16.43% and 1.17%, respectively, for the same period last year.  

Net Interest Income. Net interest income, the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest 
expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the largest component of the Corporation’s earnings. Net interest income is affected 
by changes in the volumes, rates and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, prevailing 
economic conditions, fiscal and monetary policies, and the policies of various regulatory agencies all affect market rates of interest 
and the availability and cost of credit, which, in turn, can significantly affect net interest income.  

Net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis (FTE) by total interest-earning 
assets. FTE income includes tax-exempt income, restated to a pre-tax equivalent, based on the statutory federal income tax rate of 
21.0%. All average  balances are daily average balances.  Non-accruing loans are included in average loan balances and  average 
securities include unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, while yields are based on average amortized cost.

FTE net interest income for fiscal year 2023 was $33,919, an increase of $660 or 2.0%, from $33,259 in fiscal year 2022. The 
Corporation’s tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.37% for fiscal year 2023 and 3.60% for fiscal year 2022. FTE interest income 
for fiscal year 2023 was $41,143, an increase of $6,470, or 18.70%, from fiscal year 2022, primarily due to a $51,065, or 5.6%, 
increase in average interest-earning assets from fiscal year 2022. The growth in average interest-earning assets was primarily a result 
of a $65,313, or 10.9%, increase in average loans. In fiscal year 2022, interest income was positively impacted by $2,612 in interest 
and fee income that was recognized on Paycheck Protection Program loans. The Corporation’s yield on average interest-earning 
assets was 4.09% for the 2023 fiscal year compared with 3.75% for the same period last year. 

Interest expense for fiscal year 2023 was $7,224, an increase of $5,810 from fiscal year 2022 primarily because of the rapid 
increase in current market interest rates and the increased competition for deposits. The Corporation’s average cost of funds was 
1.03% for fiscal year 2023 compared with 0.22% for the same prior year period.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses represents the charge to income necessary to adjust the allowance 
for loan losses to an amount that represents management’s assessment of the estimated probable credit losses in the Corporation’s 
loan  portfolio  that  have  been  incurred  at  each  balance  sheet  date.  The  amount  of  the  provision  is  affected  by  loan  charge-offs, 
recoveries  and  changes  in  specific  and  general  allocations  required  for  the  allowance  for  loan  losses.  Management  considers  a 
number of factors that impact the provision for loan losses, such as historical loss experience, the present and prospective financial 
condition of borrowers, the current conditions within the markets where the Corporation originates loans, the status of nonperforming 
assets, the estimated underlying value of the collateral and other factors related to the ultimate collectability of the loan portfolio.  

A provision for loan loss expense of $855 was recorded in fiscal year 2023 compared with $735 in fiscal year 2022. The loan 
loss provision expense recorded in fiscal year 2023 was primarily due to the organic growth within the loan portfolio. For fiscal year 
2023, net charge offs of $291, or 0.04% of total loans, were recorded compared with $46, or 0.01% of total loans, for the same period 
last year. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 1.09% at June 30, 2023 and 1.17% at June 30, 2022. The decline 
in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was due to the improvement in economic conditions as the economy 
has remained resilient following the pandemic and through the rapid rise in short-term interest rates. Also, substandard and non-
accrual loans are at very low levels.   

Non-performing loans were $104, or 0.01% of total loans, as of June 30, 2023. This compared with $440, or 0.07% of total 
loans, as of June 30, 2022. Non-performing loans declined primarily because two loans that had a balance of $382 as of June 30, 
2022 were returned to accrual status during fiscal year 2023. Non-performing loans have been considered in management’s analysis 
of the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses. Management and the Board of Directors closely monitor these loans and 
believe the prospect for recovery of principal, less identified specific reserves, are favorable. 

Other  Income. Total other income  increased by $12, or  0.3%, to $4,747 for fiscal year 2023. Service  charges on deposit 
accounts increased by $138, or 9.5%, in fiscal year 2023 primarily as a result of increases in personal and business service charges 
on demand deposit accounts. Debit card interchange income increased by $112, or 5.4% in fiscal year 2023 because of increased 
debit card usage and an increase in the number of cards issued. These increases were partially offset by mortgage banking activity

income decreasing by $287 in fiscal year 2023 because of the increase in mortgage rates impacting refinancing and new home sales 
volume.  

Other Expenses. Total other expenses were $24,685 for the year ended June 30, 2023; an increase of $1,470, or 6.3%, from 

$23,215 for the year ended June 30, 2022. 

Salaries and employee benefit expenses increased by $760, or 5.7%, during fiscal year 2023 primarily due to merit and cost 
of living increases and lower deferred loan costs. These increases were partially offset by lower salary continuation plan expenses 
because of an increase in the discount rate and lower incentive expenses.  

Professional and director fees increased by $187, or 21.3%, during fiscal year 2023 from the same period last year primarily 
because of an increase in director fees and consulting expenses. Director fees increased mainly due to the issuance of restricted stock 
awards and units in fiscal year 2023 as the Corporation started issuing restricted stock units in fiscal year 2023 to better align the 
expense recognition with the performance criteria. In addition, consulting fees were higher in fiscal year 2023 as the Corporation 
prepared for the additional documentation and audit requirements of the FDIC Improvement Act of 1991 since the Corporation now 
has over $1 billion in total assets and as it prepared for the adoption of the current expected credit loss model accounting standard. 

Financial institutions tax expenses decreased by $64, or 11.8%, in fiscal year 2023 since this is a capital-based tax and total 

capital was lower as of the measurement date in fiscal year 2023 because of the accumulated other comprehensive loss. 

Other expenses increased by $256, or 12.7%, because of increases primarily in insurance, postage, and loan expenses as a 

result of the growth in the organization. 

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense totaled $2,248 and $2,339 and the effective tax rates were 17.4% and 17.3% for 
the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Income tax expense was calculated utilizing a statutory federal income 
tax rate of 21.0% in fiscal years 2023 and 2022. The effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate as a result of tax-exempt 
income from obligations of states and political subdivisions, loans and bank owned life insurance earnings. 

Financial Condition 

Total assets as of June 30, 2023 were $1,060,024 compared with $977,313 at June 30, 2022, an increase of $82,711, or 8.5%. 
The growth in total assets is mainly attributable to an increase of $98,519, or 16.1%, in total loans and was primarily funded by a 
$65,971, or 7.4%, increase in total deposits. 

Securities. Total securities were $286,575 at June 30, 2023, of which $279,605 were classified as available-for-sale and $6,970 
were classified as held-to-maturity. The securities portfolio is mainly comprised of mortgage-backed securities and collateralized 
mortgage  obligations  issued  by  Fannie  Mae,  Freddie  Mac  and  Ginnie  Mae,  state  and  political  subdivisions  and  government-
sponsored enterprises. The following tables summarize the amortized cost and fair value of available-for-sale securities at June 30,

The weighted average interest rates are based on coupon rates for securities purchased at par value and on effective yields 
considering amortization or accretion if the securities were purchased at a premium or discount. The weighted average yield on tax-
exempt obligations has been calculated on a tax equivalent basis. Average yields are based on amortized cost balances. 

Loans. Loan receivables increased by $98,519, or 16.1%, to $710,362 at June 30, 2023 compared to $611,843 at June 30, 
2022. Commercial loans increased by $25,547, or 29.3%, primarily because of a third-party residential mortgage warehouse line-of-
credit that had a balance of $10,000 as of June 30, 2023 and had a zero balance as of June 30, 2022. Consumer loans increased by 
$20,588, or 45.9%, primarily as a result of the expansion of indirect auto lending and an increase in direct auto loans due to successful 
marketing campaigns. Major classifications of loans, net of deferred loan fees and costs, were as follows as of June 30:

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses balance and the provision charged to expense are judgmentally 
determined by management based upon a periodic review of the loan portfolio for valuation purposes and to determine the adequacy 
of the allowance for loan losses. Management establishes allowances for estimated losses on loans based upon its evaluation of the 
pertinent factors underlying the types and quality of loans; historical loss experience based on volume and types of loans; trend in 
portfolio  volume  and  composition;  level  and  trend  of nonperforming  assets;  detailed  analysis  of  individual  loans  for which  full 
collectability may not be assured; determination of the existence and realizable value of the collateral and guarantees securing such 
loans and the current economic conditions affecting the collectability of loans in the portfolio.  

Failure to receive principal and interest payments when due on any loan results in efforts to restore such loan to a current 
status. Loans are classified as non-accrual when, in the opinion of management, full collection of principal and accrued interest is 
not expected. The loans must be brought and kept current for six sustained payments before being considered for removal from non-
accrual status. Commercial and commercial real estate loans are classified as impaired if management determines that full collection 
of principal and interest, in accordance with the terms of the loan documents, is not probable. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the 
allowance is allocated so the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate 
or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected from the collateral. Loans are evaluated for impairment when payments are 
delayed, typically 90 days or more, or when it is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to 
the original terms of the loan. As of June 30, 2023, impaired loans totaled $405, of which $54 are included in non-accrual loans. 
Continued unsuccessful collection efforts generally lead to initiation of foreclosure or other legal proceedings.

The non-performing loans are either in the process of foreclosure or efforts are being made to work with the borrower to bring 
the loan current. Properties and vehicles acquired by the Corporation as a result of foreclosure or repossession, or by deed in lieu of 
foreclosure, are classified as “other real estate and repossessed assets owned” until they are sold or otherwise disposed of.

While management’s periodic analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses may allocate portions of the allowance 
for specific problem loan situations, the entire allowance is available for any loan charge-off that may occur. While the Corporation 
has historically experienced strong trends in asset quality, due to the current economic concerns with high inflation and rising interest 
rates,  uncertainty  remains  regarding  future  levels  of  criticized  and  classified  loans,  nonperforming  loans  and  charge-offs. 
Management will continue to closely monitor changes in the loan portfolio and adjust the provision accordingly.

Other Assets: As of June 30, 2023, the total accrued interest receivable and other assets were $22,967 compared with $10,184 
as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, a $10,250 investment in a limited partnership that invests in qualified affordable housing 
projects that will generate tax benefits for the investors is included in other assets. See Note 16—Affordable Tax Credit Partnership 
to the Consolidated Financial Statements, for information concerning the low-income housing tax credit investment. 

Deposits. Total deposits increased by $65,971, or  7.4%, from $886,562 at June 30, 2022 to $952,533 at June 30, 2023. As 
market rates have risen, customers have chosen to move funds from savings and money market deposit products to higher yielding 
certificates of deposits. As of June 30, 2023, the Corporation maintained a favorable funding mix with 26.3% of total deposits in 
noninterest-bearing demand deposits, 16.0% in interest-bearing demand deposits, 35.2% in savings and money market deposits, and 
22.5% in certificates and other time deposits.

Short-term Borrowings: Short-term borrowings increased by $5,072, or 23.8%, to $26,367 at June 30, 2023 from $21,295 at 
June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily associated with large new deposits from existing local commercial customers into the 
sweep repurchase agreement product that is fully collateralized. See Note 8—Short-Term Borrowings to the Consolidated Financial 
Statements, for information concerning short-term borrowings. 

Other Liabilities: As of June 30, 2023, the total accrued interest payable and other liabilities was $16,864 compared with 
$7,230 as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, an unfunded commitment of $9,668 associated with an affordable housing tax 
credit investment was included in other liabilities.  See Note 16—Affordable Tax Credit Partnership to the Consolidated Financial 
Statements, for information concerning the low-income housing tax credit investment. 

Capital Resources  

Total shareholders’ equity increased by $1,514 from $53,970 as of June 30, 2022 to $55,484 at June 30, 2023. The primary 
reason for the increase in shareholders’ equity was because of net income of $10,674 for the 2023 fiscal year which was partially 
offset by an increase of $7,855 in the accumulated other comprehensive loss from the mark-to-market of available-for-sale securities 
and from cash dividends paid of $2,095. The total accumulated other comprehensive loss was $29,961 as of June 30, 2023. Available-
for-sale  securities  and  shareholders’  equity  were  impacted  by  rapidly  rising  interest  rates  during  2022  and  2023  causing  the 
accumulated other comprehensive loss to increase as available-for-sale securities are marked to fair market value. As market interest 
rates rise, the fair value of fixed-rate securities decline with a corresponding net of tax decline recorded in the accumulated other 
comprehensive loss portion of equity. This unrealized loss in securities is temporary and is adjusted monthly for additional market 
interest rate fluctuations, principal paydowns, calls, and maturities. The Corporation has significant sources of liquidity and therefore 
does not expect to have to sell securities to fund growth.

For fiscal year 2023, the average equity to average total assets ratio was 5.16% and the dividend payout ratio was 19.6%. For 

fiscal year 2022, the average equity to average total assets ratio was 7.10% and the dividend payout ratio was 17.4%.   

At June 30, 2023, management believes the Bank complied with all regulatory capital requirements. Based on the Bank’s 
computed regulatory capital ratios, the OCC has determined the Bank to be well capitalized under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act 
as  of  its  latest  exam  date.  The  Bank’s  actual  and  required  capital  amounts  are  disclosed  in  Note  13-Regulatory  Matters  to  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements. Management is not aware of any matters occurring subsequent to that exam that would cause the 
Bank’s capital category to change. 

At June 30, 2023, the Corporation had no unconsolidated, related special purpose entities, nor did the Corporation engage in 
hedging contracts, such as interest rate swaps, which may expose the Corporation to liabilities greater than the amounts recorded on 
the  consolidated  balance  sheet.  The  Corporation’s  investment  policy  prohibits  engaging  in  derivative  contracts  for  speculative 
trading purposes; however, in the future, the Corporation may pursue certain contracts, such as interest rate swaps, to execute a 
sound and defensive interest rate risk management policy. 

Liquidity  

Management considers the asset position of the Bank to be sufficiently liquid to meet normal operating needs and conditions. 
The Bank’s earning assets are divided primarily between loans and available-for-sale securities, with any excess funds placed in 
federal funds sold or interest-bearing deposit accounts with other financial institutions. 

For fiscal year 2023, net cash inflows from operating activities were $13,316, net cash inflows from financing activities were 
$69,706 and net cash outflows from investing activities were $92,219. Major sources of cash were a $65,971 net increase in deposits 
and $37,794 in cash received from sales, maturities, or principal pay downs of available-for-sale securities. Major uses of cash were 
a  $98,945  net  increase  in  loans  and  $31,799  of  purchases  of  available-for-sale  securities.  Total  cash  and  cash  equivalents  were 
$20,952 as of June 30, 2023 compared to $18,529 at June 30, 2022. 

The Bank groups its loan portfolio into four major categories: commercial loans; commercial real estate loans; 1-4 family 
residential real estate loans; and consumer loans. The Bank’s 1-4 family residential real estate loan portfolio primarily consists of 
fixed and variable rate mortgage loans for terms generally not longer than thirty years and variable rate home equity lines of credit. 
Commercial and commercial real estate loans are comprised of both variable rate notes subject to interest rate changes based on the 
prime rate or Treasury index, and fixed rate notes having maturities of generally not greater than  twenty years. Consumer loans 
offered by the Bank are generally written for periods of up to seven years, based on the nature of the collateral. These may be either 
installment loans having regular monthly payments or demand type loans for short periods of time. 

Funds  not  allocated  to  the  Bank’s  loan  portfolio  are  invested  in  various  securities  having  diverse  maturity  schedules.  A 
majority of the Bank’s securities are held in obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored entities, mortgage-backed securities, and 
investments in tax-exempt municipal bonds. 

The Bank offers several forms of deposit products to its customers. We believe the rates offered by the Bank and the fees 
charged for them are competitive with others currently available in the market area. While the Bank continues to be under competitive 
pressures in the Bank’s market area as financial institutions attempt to attract and keep new deposits, we believe many commercial 
and retail customers are turning to community banks. Compared to our peers, the Corporation’s core deposits consist of a larger 
percentage of noninterest-bearing demand deposits resulting in a lower cost of funds of 1.03% for fiscal year 2023. 

Jumbo  time  deposits  (those  with  balances  of  $250  and  over)  were  $46,822  and  $18,164  at  June 30,  2023  and  2022, 
respectively. These deposits are monitored closely by the Bank and typically priced on an individual basis. When these deposits are 
from a municipality, certain bank-owned securities are pledged to guarantee the safety of these public fund deposits as required by 
Ohio law. The Corporation has the option to use a fee paid broker to obtain deposits from outside its normal service area as  an 
additional source of funding. However, these deposits are not relied upon as a primary source of funding and there were no brokered 
deposits as of June 30, 2023 or 2022.  

To provide additional sources of liquidity, the Corporation has lines of credit with other financial institutions and has entered 
into agreements with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB) and the Federal Reserve Discount Window. As of June 
30, 2023, advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati totaled $8,776 compared with $8,256 as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, 
the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional $109,442 from the FHLB of Cincinnati based on a blanket pledge of qualifying first 
mortgage and multi-family loans. The Corporation considers the FHLB of Cincinnati to be a reliable source of liquidity funding, 
secondary to its deposit base.

Dividends from the Bank are the primary source of funds for payment of dividends to our shareholders. However, there are 
statutory limits on the amount of dividends the Bank can pay without regulatory approval. Under these regulations, the amount of 
dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s net profits, combined with the retained net profits of 
the preceding two years, subject to the capital requirements described above. Additionally, the Bank may not declare or pay any 
dividend if, after making the dividend, the Bank would be “undercapitalized,” as defined in the federal regulations. As of  June 30, 
2023, the Bank could, without prior approval, declare a dividend of approximately $21,811. 

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices  

The financial statements and related data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted 
accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and results of operations primarily in terms of historical 
dollars without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial 
companies, virtually  all the assets and liabilities of the  Corporation are monetary in nature. Therefore, as a financial institution, 
interest rates have a more significant impact on the Corporation’s performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest 
rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services. The liquidity, 
maturity structure and quality of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance 
levels.   

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Significant Estimates 

The  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations  for  the  Corporation  presented  in  the  Consolidated  Financial  Statements, 
accompanying notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and management’s discussion and analysis are, to a  large degree, 
dependent upon the Corporation’s accounting policies. The selection and application of these accounting policies involve judgments, 
estimates and uncertainties that are susceptible to change. The most significant accounting policies followed by the Corporation are 
presented in Note 1-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Consolidated Financial Statements. These policies, along 
with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are 
valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined. 

Management views critical accounting policies to be those which are highly dependent on subjective or complex judgments, 
estimates and assumptions, and where changes in those estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on the financial 
statements. In the event different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the 
possibility of materially different financial condition or results of operations is a reasonable likelihood. Management has identified 
the following as critical accounting policies: 

Allowance for Loan Losses. The determination of the allowance for loan losses involves considerable subjective judgment 
and estimation by management. The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through a provision for loan losses charged to 
expense, which represents management’s best estimate of probable losses that have been incurred within the existing portfolio of 
loans. The balance in the allowance for loan losses is determined based on management’s review and evaluation of the loan portfolio 
in  relation  to  past  loss  experience,  the  size  and  composition  of  the  portfolio,  current  economic  events  and  conditions  and  other 
pertinent factors, including management’s assumptions as to future delinquencies, recoveries, and losses. All these factors may be 
susceptible to significant change. Among the many factors affecting the allowance for loan losses, some are quantitative while others 
require qualitative judgment. Although management believes its process for determining the allowance adequately considers all the 
potential factors that could potentially result in credit losses, the process includes subjective elements and may be susceptible to 
significant change. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management’s estimates, additional provisions for loan losses may be 
required that would adversely impact the Corporation’s financial condition or earnings in future periods. 

Goodwill. The Corporation accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the 
identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition with 
any excess of the cost of the acquisition over the fair value recorded as goodwill. The carrying value of goodwill is tested annually 
for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The evaluation 
for impairment involves comparing the current estimated fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value. If the current estimated 
fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, no additional testing is required, and an impairment loss is not recorded. If 
the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value, further valuation procedures are performed that could result in impairment of 
goodwill being recorded. Further valuation procedures would include allocating the estimated fair value to all assets and liabilities 
of the reporting unit to determine an implied goodwill value. If the implied value of goodwill of a reporting unit is less than the 
carrying amount of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.  

Management evaluated goodwill as of April 30, 2023, the measurement date, utilizing an income approach that incorporated 
a  discounted  cash  flow  model  that  involved  management  assumptions  based  upon  future  growth  and  earnings  projections.  The 
estimated fair value of the reporting unit was then compared to the current carrying value to determine if impairment had occurred. 
It is our opinion that, as of the measurement date, the aggregate fair value of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying value of the 

22 

 
 
 
  
  
 
  
  
  
 
 
reporting  unit.  Therefore,  management  concluded  that  goodwill  was  not  impaired.  Although  we  believe  our  assumptions  are 
reasonable, actual results may vary significantly and it is impossible to know the future impact of evolving economic conditions. If 
for any future period it is determined that there has been impairment in the carrying value of our goodwill balances, the Corporation 
will record a charge to earnings, which could have a material adverse effect on net income, but not risk based capital ratios. 

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM  

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors  
Consumers Bancorp, Inc. 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Consumers Bancorp, Inc and subsidiaries (the “Company”) 
as of June 30, 2023 and 2022; the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' 
equity, and cash flows for the years then ended; and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In 
our  opinion,  the  financial  statements  referred  to  above  present  fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the  financial  position  of  the 
Company as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended in 
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 

Basis for Opinion 

The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 
Company’s  financial  statements  based  on  our  audits.  We  are  a  public  accounting  firm  registered  with  the  Public  Company 
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in 
accordance  with  the  U.S.  federal  securities  laws  and  the  applicable  rules  and  regulations  of  the  Securities  and  Exchange 
Commission and the PCAOB. 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 
audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  consolidated  financial  statements  are  free  of  material  misstatement, 
whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an  audit of its internal 
control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain 
an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness 
of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due 
to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, 
evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting 
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial 
statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

Critical Audit Matter 

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that 
was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are 
material  to  the  financial  statements  and  (2)  involved  our  especially  challenging,  subjective,  or  complex  judgments.  The 
communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and 
we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the 
accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Critical Audit Matter Description 

The allowance for loan losses (allowance) represents management’s best estimate of probable losses that have been incurred 
within the existing portfolio of loans. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates 
to loans that are individually classified as impaired. The general component covers nonimpaired loans and is based on historical 
loss  experience  adjusted  for  current  factors  based  on  the  risks  present  for  each  portfolio  segment.  These  factors  include 
consideration of the following: levels of and trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and 
underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures and practices; experience, ability and depth of lending 
management and other relevant staff; volume and severity of past-due loans and other similar conditions; quality of the loan 
review system; value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans; national and local economic trends and conditions; 
industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations.

We identified the Company’s significant assumptions in general reserves in the allowance for loan losses as a critical audit matter. 
Given the significant estimates and assumptions management makes to estimate the current factor adjustments of the allowance 
for loan losses, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions required 
a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort. 

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit 

Our audit procedures related to the qualitative factors within the allowance included the following, among others:  

•  We obtained an understanding of management’s process for determining the need for qualitative factor adjustments, 

identifying appropriate factors, and measuring the direction and magnitude of the adjustments. 

•  We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s judgments and tests of accuracy of underlying support related to 

the qualitative factors. 

•  We  evaluated  the  design  of  controls  over  the  application  of  management’s  qualitative  factor  methodology  in  the 

estimate of general reserves. 

•  We evaluated management's rationale for determining qualitative adjustments were relevant and warranted for each 

loan segment and assessed the measurement of qualitative factor adjustments applied by management. 

•  Where  applicable,  we  tested  the  accuracy  and  completeness  of  data  used  by  management  in  the  measurement  of 

qualitative factor adjustments or vouched factors to relevant external data sources. 

•  We assessed changes in qualitative factors year over year against overall trends in credit quality within the Company 
and broader trends within the industry and local and national economies to evaluate reasonableness of management’s 
qualitative factor adjustments.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
June 30, 2023 and 2022 
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data) 

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  

Principles  of  Consolidation:  The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  Consumers  Bancorp,  Inc. 
(Corporation)  and  its  wholly  owned  subsidiary,  Consumers  National  Bank  (Bank),  together  referred  to  as  the  Corporation.  All 
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. 

Nature of Operations: Consumers Bancorp, Inc. is a bank holding company headquartered in Minerva, Ohio that provides, 
through its banking subsidiary, a broad array of products and services throughout its primary market  area of Carroll, Columbiana, 
Jefferson,  Mahoning,  Stark,  Summit  and  Wayne  counties  in  Ohio.  Its  market  includes  these  counties  as  well  as  the  contiguous 
counties in northeast Ohio, western Pennsylvania, and northern West Virginia. The Bank’s business involves attracting deposits 
from businesses and individual customers and using such deposits to originate  commercial, mortgage and consumer loans in its 
primary market area. 

Business  Segment  Information:  The  Corporation  is  engaged  in  the  business  of  commercial  and  retail  banking,  which 
accounts for substantially all its revenues, operating income, and assets. Accordingly, all its operations are reported in one segment, 
banking. 

Acquisition:  At  the  date  of  acquisition  the  Corporation  records  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  acquired  companies  on  the 
Consolidated Balance Sheet at their fair value. The results of operations for acquired companies are included in the Corporation’s 
Consolidated Statements of Income beginning at the acquisition date. Expenses arising from acquisition activities are recorded in 
the Consolidated Statements of Income during the periods incurred. 

Use  of  Estimates:  To  prepare  financial  statements  in  conformity  with  U.S.  generally  accepted  accounting  principles, 
management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts 
reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash, deposits with other financial institutions with original 
maturities  of  less  than  90  days  and  federal  funds  sold.  Cash  flows  are  reported  on  a  net  basis  for  customer  loan  and  deposit 
transactions, interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions and short-term borrowings.   

Interest–Bearing Deposits in Other Financial Institutions: Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions mature 

within one year and are carried at cost. 

Certificates of Deposit in Financial Institutions: Certificates of deposit in other financial institutions are carried at cost. 

Cash Reserves: The Bank is required to maintain cash on hand and noninterest-bearing balances on deposit with the Federal 
Reserve Bank to meet regulatory reserve and clearing requirements. The required reserve balance was zero at June 30, 2023 and 
2022. 

Securities: Securities are generally classified into either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity 
securities are carried at amortized cost and are those the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Available-
for-sale securities are those the Corporation may decide to sell before maturity if needed for liquidity, asset-liability management, 
or  other  reasons.  Available-for-sale  securities  are  reported  at  fair  value,  with  unrealized  gains  or  losses  included  in  other 
comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of equity, net of tax. 

Interest income includes amortization of purchase premiums and accretion of discounts. Premiums and discounts on securities 
are amortized on the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage-backed securities and collateralized 
mortgage obligations where prepayments are anticipated. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined 
using the specific identification method. 

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when 
economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. The evaluation of securities includes consideration given to the length 
of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, 
whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and whether the Corporation has the intent to sell the security 
or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. In analyzing an issuer's 
financial condition, management may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, or U.S. 
Government sponsored enterprises, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the 

32 

 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

issuer's financial condition. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity 
and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time. 

When OTTI occurs, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether the Corporation intends to sell the 
security,  or  it  is  more  likely  than  not  it  will  be  required  to  sell  the  security  before  recovery  of  its  amortized  cost  basis.  If  the 
Corporation intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost 
basis, the OTTI will be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the security's amortized cost basis and its fair 
value at the balance sheet date. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized 
cost basis of the security. If a security is determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired, but the Corporation does not intend to 
sell the security, only the credit portion of the estimated loss is recognized in earnings, with the other portion of the loss recognized 
in other comprehensive income. 

Equity  Securities:  Equity  securities  are  carried  at  fair  value,  with  changes  in  fair  value  reported  in  net  income.  Equity 
securities without readily determinable fair values are carried at cost, minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting 
from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment. 

Federal Bank and Other Restricted Stocks: The Bank is a member of the FHLB system. Members are required to own a 
certain amount of stock based on the  level of borrowings and other  factors and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock, 
included with Federal bank and other restricted stocks on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, is carried at cost, classified as a restricted 
security and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Federal Reserve Bank stock is also 
carried at cost. Since these stocks are viewed as a long-term investment, impairment is based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both 
cash and stock dividends are reported as income. 

Loans Held for Sale: Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of 
aggregate cost or fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. Mortgage loans held for sale are generally 
sold with servicing rights released. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings. 
Gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related 
loan sold. 

Mortgage Banking Derivatives: Commitments to fund mortgage  loans (interest rate locks) to be sold into the secondary 
market are accounted for as free-standing derivatives. The fair value of the interest rate lock is recorded at the time the commitment 
to fund the mortgage loan is executed and is adjusted for the expected exercise of the commitment before the loan is funded. Changes 
in the fair values of these derivatives are included in net gains on sales of loans. 

Loans: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are 
reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs, and an allowance for loan losses. Interest income 
is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized 
in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments. The recorded investment in loans includes accrued 
interest receivable. 

Interest income on commercial, commercial real estate and 1-4 family residential loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 
90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later 
than 120 days past due. Past due status is determined by the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on non-
accrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. 

All interest accrued but not received on loans placed on non-accrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on 
such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to 
accrual status when the customer has exhibited the ability to repay and demonstrated this ability over at least a consecutive six-
month period and future payments are reasonably assured. 

Loan  Commitments  and  Related  Financial  Instruments:  Financial  instruments  include  off-balance  sheet  credit 
instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of  credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The 
face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial 
instruments are recorded when funded. 

Concentrations  of  Credit  Risk:  The  Bank grants  consumer,  real  estate,  and  commercial  loans  primarily  to  borrowers  in 
Carroll, Columbiana, Jefferson, Mahoning, Stark, Summit, Wayne, and contiguous counties. Therefore, the Corporation’s exposure 
to credit risk is significantly affected by changes in the economy in these counties. Automobiles and other consumer assets, business 
assets and residential and commercial real estate secure most loans.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan 
losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent 
recoveries, if any, are credited to the  allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required based on past loan loss 
experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, 
economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is 
available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off.  

The  allowance  consists  of  specific  and general  components.  The  specific  component  relates  to  loans  that  are  individually 
classified as impaired. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for 
current factors. 

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable 
to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans, for which the terms have been modified, 
resulting  in  a  concession,  and  for  which  the  borrower  is  experiencing  financial  difficulties,  are  considered  troubled  debt 
restructurings, and classified as impaired. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, 
collateral  value,  and  the  probability  of  collecting  scheduled  principal  and  interest  payments  when  due.  Loans  that  experience 
insignificant  payment  delays  and  payment  shortfalls  generally  are  not  classified  as  impaired.  Management  determines  the 
significance  of  payment  delays  and  payment  shortfalls  on  a  case-by-case  basis,  taking  into  consideration  all  the  circumstances 
surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment 
record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. 

Impairment is evaluated collectively for smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgage, consumer loans 
and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so the loan is reported, 
net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is 
expected from the collateral. Loans are evaluated for impairment when payments are delayed, typically 90 days or more, or when it 
is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the original terms of the loan. Troubled  debt 
restructurings are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash 
flows using the loan’s effective interest rate at inception. If a troubled debt restructuring is considered to be a collateral dependent 
loan,  the  loan  is  reported,  net,  at  the  fair  value  of  the  collateral.  For  troubled  debt  restructurings  that  subsequently  default,  the 
Corporation determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan losses. 

The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors based 
on the risks present for each portfolio segment. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on 
the actual loss history experienced by the Corporation over the most recent  three-year period, depending on loan segment. This 
actual loss experience is supplemented with economic and other factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. These 
factors include consideration of the following: levels of and trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk 
selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures, and practices; experience, ability and depth of 
lending management and other relevant staff; volume and severity of past due loans and other similar conditions; quality of the loan 
review system; value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans;  national and local economic trends and conditions; 
industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations. The following portfolio segments have been identified: 

Commercial: Commercial loans are made for a wide variety of general business purposes, including financing for equipment, 
inventories and accounts receivable. The term of each commercial loan varies by its purpose. Commercial loans are underwritten 
after  evaluating  and  understanding  the  borrower’s  ability  to  operate  profitably  and  prudently  expand  its  business.  Current  and 
projected cash flows are evaluated to determine the ability of the borrower to repay their obligations as agreed. Commercial loans 
are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the  borrower and secondarily  made based  on the underlying collateral 
provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans 
may fluctuate in value. Most commercial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts 
receivable or inventory and usually incorporate a personal guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured 
basis.  In  the  case  of  loans  secured  by  accounts  receivable,  the  availability  of  funds  for  the  repayment  of  these  loans  may  be 
substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers. The commercial loan portfolio 
includes loans to a wide variety of corporations and businesses across many industrial classifications in the areas where the Bank 
operates. 

Commercial Real Estate: Commercial real estate loans include mortgage loans to farmers, owners of multi-family investment 
properties, developers and owners of commercial real estate. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal 
amounts and the repayment of these loans is generally largely dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the 
loan, the business conducted on the property securing the loan or, in the case of loans to farmers, management and operation of the 

34 

 
 
 
 
  
 
  
  
  
  
  
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

farm. Commercial real estate loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy. 
The properties securing the Corporation’s commercial real estate portfolio are diverse in terms of type and geographic location. This 
diversity helps reduce the Corporation’s exposure to adverse economic events that affect any single market or industry. Management 
monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on collateral, geography and risk grade criteria. In addition, management 
tracks the level of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans versus nonowner-occupied loans. 

1-4 Family Residential Real Estate: Residential real estate loans are secured by one to four family residential properties and 
include both owner occupied, non-owner occupied and home equity loans. Credit approval for residential real estate loans requires 
demonstration of sufficient income to repay the principal and interest and the real estate taxes and insurance, stability of employment, 
an established credit record and an appropriately appraised value of the real estate securing the loan that generally requires that the 
residential real estate loan amount be no more than 85% of the purchase price or the appraised value of the real estate securing the 
loan unless the borrower provides private mortgage insurance.  

Consumer: The Corporation originates direct and indirect consumer loans, primarily automobile loans, personal lines of credit, 
and unsecured consumer loans in its primary market areas. Credit approval for consumer loans requires income sufficient to repay 
principal and interest due, stability of employment, an established credit record and sufficient collateral for secured loans. Consumer 
loans typically have shorter terms and lower balances with higher yields as compared to real estate mortgage loans, but generally 
carry higher risks of default. Consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are 
more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. 

Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC): The Corporation has invested in LIHTCs through funds that assist corporations 
in  investing  in  limited partnerships  and  limited  liability  companies  that  own,  develop  and operate  low  income  residential  rental 
properties  for  purposes  of  qualifying  for  the  LIHTCs.  These  investments  are  accounted  for  under  the  proportional  amortization 
method which recognizes the amortization of the investment in proportion to the tax credit and other tax benefits received. 

Other Real Estate and Repossessed Assets Owned: Real estate properties and other repossessed assets, which are primarily 
vehicles, acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell at the date of acquisition, 
establishing a new cost basis. Any reduction to fair value from the carrying value of the related loan at the time of acquisition is 
accounted for as a loan loss. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If 
the fair value declines after acquisition, a valuation allowance is recorded as a charge to income. Operating costs after acquisition 
are expensed. Gains and losses on disposition are reported as a charge to income. 

Transfers of Financial Assets:  Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been 
relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Corporation, 
the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the 
transferred  assets,  and  the  Corporation  does  not  maintain  effective  control  over  the  transferred  assets  through  an  agreement  to 
repurchase them before their maturity. 

Premises and Equipment: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. 
Depreciation is computed primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the owned asset and, for leasehold 
improvements, generally over the lesser of the remaining term of the lease facility or the estimated economic life of the improvement. 
Useful lives range from three years for software to thirty-nine and one-half years for buildings. 

Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance: The Bank has purchased single-premium life insurance policies to insure the lives 
of current and former participants in the salary continuation plan. As of June 30, 2023, the Bank had policies with total death benefits 
of $19,167 and total cash surrender values of $10,222. As of June 30, 2022, the Bank had policies with total death benefits of $19,128 
and  total  cash  surrender  values  of  $9,959.  Bank  owned  life  insurance  is  recorded  at  the  amount  that  can  be  realized  under  the 
insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that 
are probable at settlement. Tax-exempt income is recognized from the periodic increases in cash surrender value of these policies. 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Goodwill results from business acquisitions and represents the excess of the purchase 
price over the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities. Core deposit intangible assets arise from whole bank or branch acquisitions 
and are measured at fair value and then are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Goodwill is not amortized but is assessed at 
least annually for impairment. Any such impairment will be recognized in the period identified. The Corporation has selected April 
30 as the date to perform the annual impairment test. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the Corporation’s 
balance sheet. 

Long-Term Assets: Premises, equipment and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their 

carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value. 

35 

 
 
 
 
  
  
  
 
  
  
  
  
 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Repurchase Agreements: Substantially all repurchase agreement liabilities, which are classified as short-term borrowings, 
represent amounts advanced by various customers. Securities are pledged to cover these liabilities, which are not covered by federal 
deposit insurance. 

Retirement Plans: The Bank maintains a 401(k) savings and retirement plan covering all eligible employees and matching 

contributions are expensed as made. Salary continuation plan expense allocates the benefits over years of service. 

Income Taxes: The Corporation files a consolidated federal income tax return. Income tax expense is the sum of the current-
year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the 
expected future  tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities, 
computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. 
The  Corporation applies a more  likely than not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties in accordance with U.S. generally 
accepted accounting principles. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that the position would be 
sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax 
benefit greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. The Corporation recognizes interest and/or penalties related to 
income tax matters in income tax expense.  

Earnings per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share is net income divided by the weighted average number of 
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential 
common shares issuable upon the vesting of restricted stock awards. 

Stock-Based  Compensation:  Compensation  cost  is  recognized  for  restricted  stock  awards  issued  to  employees  over  the 
required service period, generally defined as the vesting period. The fair value of restricted stock awards is estimated by using the 
market  price  of  the  Corporation’s  common  stock  at  the  date  of  grant.  For  awards  with  graded  vesting,  compensation  cost  is 
recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Forfeitures are recognized as incurred. 

Comprehensive  Income:  Comprehensive  income  consists  of  net  income  and  other  comprehensive  income  (loss).  Other 
comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale, which are also recognized as a 
separate component of equity, net of tax. 

Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are 
recorded  as  liabilities  when  the  likelihood  of  loss  is  probable,  and  an  amount  or  range  of  loss  can  be  reasonably  estimated. 
Management does not believe there are such matters that will have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements. 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair value of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information 
and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 15 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Fair value estimates involve 
uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, discounted cash flows, prepayments, and other 
factors,  especially  in  the  absence  of  broad  markets  for  particular  items.  Changes  in  assumptions  or  in  market  conditions  could 
significantly affect these estimates. 

Dividend Restrictions: Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by 

the Bank to the holding company or by the holding company to shareholders. 

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the June 30, 2022 financial statements to be comparable to the 

June 30, 2023 presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on prior year net income or shareholders’ equity. 

Recently  Issued  Accounting  Pronouncements  Not  Yet  Effective:  In  June  2016,  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board 
(FASB)  issued  ASU  2016-13,  Financial  Instruments—Credit  Losses  (Topic  326):  Measurement  of  Credit  Losses  on  Financial 
Instruments. This ASU added a new Topic 326 to the codification and removed the thresholds that companies apply to measure 
credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, receivables, and held-to-maturity debt securities. 
Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, companies generally recognized credit losses when it is probable that the loss 
had been incurred. ASU 2016-13 removes all current loss recognition thresholds and requires companies to recognize an allowance 
for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that 
the corporation expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. The new guidance also amended the credit loss measurement 
guidance for available-for-sale debt securities and beneficial interests in securitized financial assets. The guidance in ASU 2016-13 
was effective for “public business entities,” as defined in the guidance, that are SEC filers for fiscal years and for interim periods 
within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption of the guidance was permitted for fiscal years beginning 
after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. However, during July 2019, FASB unanimously voted 

36 

 
 
 
 
  
  
  
 
 
  
  
  
  
  
  
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

for a proposal to delay this ASU to January 2023 for  smaller reporting companies. On October 16, 2019, FASB approved a final 
ASU delaying the effective date. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022 
for certain entities, including smaller reporting companies. The Corporation is a smaller reporting company. 

The  Corporation  adopted  this  new  guidance  on  July  1,  2023.  Management  analyzed  and  finalized  its  pool  segmentation, 
established the peer group that will be used as the source of loss experience data, and completed parallel calculations in preparation 
for adoption of the new methodology. The Net Present Value of Discounted Cash Flow methodology is being used for all loan pools 
and the implementation of ASU No. 2016-13 is expected to increase the balance of the allowance for loan losses by less than $250. 
In addition, a reserve for unfunded commitments that are not unconditionally cancellable will be established and is expected to be 
between $275 and $350. Upon adoption of the new guidance, a one-time adjustment to the allowance for loan losses and reserve for 
unfunded commitments will be made with an offsetting decrease to retained earnings, net of tax. The Corporation is also developing 
disclosure documentation related to adoption of this standard.  

In March 2022, FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (ASC 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings 
(TDRs) and Vintage Disclosures. The guidance amends ASC 326 to eliminate the accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors, while 
enhancing  disclosure  requirements  for  certain  loan  refinancing  and  restructuring  activities  by  creditors  when  a  borrower  is 
experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying TDR recognition and measurement guidance, creditors will be 
required to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or continuation of existing loan. These amendments are intended 
to enhance existing disclosure requirements and introduce new requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to 
borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Additionally, the amendments in ASC 326 require that an entity disclose current-period 
gross write-offs by year of origination within the vintage disclosures, which require that an entity disclose the amortized cost basis 
of financing receivables by credit quality indicator and class of financing receivable by year of origination. The guidance is only for 
entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2016-13 for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning 
after December 15, 2022. This update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements. 

NOTE 2—ACQUISITION 

On July 16, 2021, the Corporation completed its acquisition of two branches located in Calcutta and Wellsville, Ohio from 
CFBank, National Association. In connection with the branch acquisition, the Corporation assumed $104,538 in branch deposits for 
a  deposit  premium of  1.75%.  In  addition,  the  Corporation acquired  $15,602 of  subordinated  debt  securities  issued  by  unrelated 
financial institutions and $19,943 of loans. This transaction qualifies as a business combination. 

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by the Corporation at 
the date of acquisition. The core deposit intangible will be amortized over ten years on a straight-line basis. Goodwill will not be 
amortized, but instead will be evaluated for impairment.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when 
economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. The securities portfolio is evaluated for OTTI by segregating the portfolio 
into two general segments and applying the appropriate OTTI model. Investment securities are generally evaluated for OTTI under 
FASB ASC Topic 320, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. 

In determining OTTI under the ASC Topic 320 model, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time 
and  the  extent  to  which  the  fair  value  has  been  less  than  cost,  (2) the  financial  condition  and  near-term  prospects  of the  issuer, 
(3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt 
security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether 
an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available 
to management at a point in time. 

As  of  June  30,  2023,  the  Corporation’s  securities  portfolio  consisted  of  414  available-for-sale  and  four  held-to-maturity 
securities.  There  were  400  available-for-sale  securities  in  an  unrealized  loss  position  at  June  30,  2023,  333  of  which  were  in  a 
continuous loss position for twelve or more months.  There were four held-to-maturity securities in an unrealized loss position at 
June 30, 2023. The unrealized losses within the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity security portfolios in fiscal year 2023 was 
primarily attributed to  a change in rates. The mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations were primarily 
issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae, institutions which the government has affirmed its commitment to support. 
The Corporation does not own any private label mortgage-backed securities. Also, management monitors the financial condition of 
the individual municipal securities to ensure they meet minimum credit standards, all are paying as agreed, and there have been no 
missed payments. Since the Corporation does not intend to sell these securities and it is not likely the Corporation will be required 
to  sell  these  securities  at  an  unrealized  loss  position  prior  to  any  anticipated  recovery  in  fair  value,  which  may  be  maturity, 
management does not believe there is any OTTI related to these securities at June 30, 2023. Also, there was no OTTI recognized at 
June 30, 2022. 

As of June 30, 2023, the Corporation owned equity securities with an amortized cost of $400. The following table presents the 
net unrealized gains and losses on equity securities recognized in earnings for the  twelve months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. 
There were no realized gains or losses on the sale of equity securities during the periods presented.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDR): 

The Corporation has certain loans that have been modified in order to maximize collection of loan balances that are classified 
as TDRs. A modified loan is usually classified as a TDR if, for economic reasons, management grants a concession to the original 
terms and conditions of the loan to a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulties that it would not have otherwise considered.  

The Corporation had $351 and $318 of loans classified as TDRs as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. There were no 
specific reserves allocated to these loans and TDRs are also included as impaired loans that are listed above. For the years ended 
June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no loans modified that were classified as a troubled debt restructuring. 

There  were  no  loans  classified  as  troubled  debt  restructurings  for  which  there  was  a  payment  default  within  12  months 
following the modification during the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. A loan is considered in payment default 
once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms. 

Credit Quality Indicators: 

The Corporation 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 Corporation analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. 
This  analysis  includes  loans  with  a  total  outstanding  loan  relationship  greater  than  $100  and  non-homogeneous  loans,  such  as 
commercial and commercial real estate loans. This analysis is performed monthly. The Corporation 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, based on 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 as not rated are either less than $100 or are included in groups of homogeneous loans. These loans are

As of June 30, 2023, the Corporation leased real estate for seven office locations and various equipment under operating lease 
agreements. The lease agreements have maturity dates ranging from one year or less to May 31, 2035, including extension periods. 
Lease agreements for  two locations have a lease term of 12 months or less and are therefore considered short-term leases. Most 
leases include one or more options to renew. The exercise of lease renewal options is typically at our sole discretion. The majority 
of renewals to extend the lease terms are included in our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as they are reasonably certain of 
exercise. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use the fully collateralized FHLB borrowing rate, commensurate 
with the lease terms based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease 
payments. The weighted average remaining life of the lease term for the leases with a term over 12 months was 7.87 years as of June 
30, 2023 and the weighted-average discount rate was 1.95%.

Goodwill and the core deposit intangible assets resulted from the acquisition of Peoples Bancorp of Mt. Pleasant, Inc. that was 
completed on January 1, 2020, and the branch acquisition that was completed on July 16, 2021. Goodwill is not amortized but is 
evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset might be impaired. 
Impairment  exists  when  a  reporting  unit’s  carrying  amount  exceeds  its  fair  value.  For  the  goodwill  impairment  analysis,  the 
Corporation  is  the  only  reporting  unit.  Management  performed  a  quantitative  impairment  assessment  at  April  30,  2023.  The 
assessment estimated fair value on an income approach that incorporated a discounted cash flow model that involved management 
assumptions based upon future growth and earnings projections. The results of the assessment indicated no impairment as of the 
measurement date. Goodwill is the only intangible asset on the Corporation’s balance sheet with an indefinite life. Management will 
continue to monitor its goodwill for possible impairment. 

The  core deposit intangible asset is amortized on a  straight-line basis over ten years. The Corporation recorded intangible 
amortization expense of $56 in 2023 and $54 in 2022. The intangible amortization expense is expected to be $57 per year for each 
of the next four fiscal years and $186 thereafter.

Pursuant to collateral agreements with the FHLB, advances are secured by all the stock invested in the FHLB and certain 
qualifying first mortgage and multi-family loans. The advances were collateralized by $169,993 and $152,868 of first mortgage and 
multi-family loans under a blanket lien arrangement at June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Based on this collateral, the Bank was 
eligible to borrow up to a total of $109,442 in additional advances at June 30, 2023. 

NOTE 10—EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS  

The  Bank  maintains  a  401(k)  savings  and  retirement  plan  that  permits  eligible  employees  to  make  before-  or  after-tax 
contributions to the plan, subject to the dollar limits from Internal Revenue Service regulations. The Bank matches 100% of the 
employee’s voluntary contributions to the plan based on the amount of each participant’s contributions up to a maximum of 4% of 
eligible compensation. All regular full-time and part-time employees who complete six months of service and are at least 21 years 
of age are eligible to participate. Amounts charged to operations were $390 and $364 for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 
respectively. 

The Bank maintains a nonqualified Salary Continuation Plan (SCP) to reward and encourage certain Bank executives to remain 
employees of the Bank. The SCP is considered an unfunded plan for tax and Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) 
purposes and all obligations arising under the SCP are payable from the general assets of the Corporation. The estimated present 
value of future benefits to be paid to certain current and former executives totaled  $3,687 as of June 30, 2023 and $3,564 as of 
June 30, 2022 and is included in other liabilities. For purposes of calculating the present value of future benefits, a discount rate of 
5.75% was used to project the liability through June 30, 2023 and 3.0% was used at June 30, 2022. For the years ended June 30, 
2023 and 2022, $256 and $534, respectively, have been charged to expense in connection with the SCP. Distributions to participants 
were $133 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 and $110 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. 

The Amended and Restated 2010 Omnibus Incentive Plan (2010 Plan) is a nonqualified share-based compensation plan. The 
2010 Plan was established to promote alignment between key employees’ performance and the Corporation’s shareholder interests 
by motivating performance through the award of stock-based compensation. The purpose of the 2010 Plan was to attract, retain, and 
motivate talented employees and compensate outside directors for their service to the Corporation. The 2010 Plan was approved by 
the Corporation’s shareholders. The Compensation Committee of the Corporation’s Board of Directors has sole authority to select 
the employees, establish the awards to be issued, and approve the terms and conditions of each award contract.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Under the 2010 Plan, the Corporation could grant, among other things, nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, 
stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or any combination thereof to any employee and outside director. 
Each award was evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the number of shares awarded, the vesting period, the performance 
requirements, and such other provisions as the Compensation Committee determines. Upon a change-in-control of the Corporation, 
as defined in the 2010 Plan, all outstanding awards immediately vest. 

The Corporation has granted restricted stock awards and restricted stock units to certain employees and directors. Restricted 
stock units and awards are issued at no cost to the recipient and can be  settled in shares or cash at the end of the vesting period 
depending on the type of award. Restricted stock awards  are made  at the end of the measurement period once certain specified 
performance targets as established by the Compensation Committee are achieved with some awards fully vesting on the date of grant 
and others vesting 25% on the grant date, with the remaining vesting 25% per year over a three-year period. Restricted stock awards 
provide the holder with dividends during the vesting period. Cash dividends are reinvested into shares of stock and are subject to the 
same restrictions and vesting as the initial award.  Restricted stock units begin to vest at the end of the measurement period once 
certain specified performance targets as established by the Compensation Committee are achieved. Some units, primarily the awards 
made to directors and senior management, are 100% vested at the end of the measurement period. For other unit awards, primarily 
the awards made to executive management, 25% vest at the end of the performance period, with the remaining vesting 25% per year 
over a three-year period. The fair value of the restricted stock units and awards, which is used to measure compensation expense, is 
the closing market price of the Corporation’s common stock on the date of the grant and compensation expense is recognized over 
the vesting period. All dividends are forfeitable in the event the shares do not vest.

June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the Corporation had no unrecognized tax benefits recorded. The Corporation does not expect the 
total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase within the next twelve months. There were no interest or penalties 
recorded for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and there were no amounts accrued for interest and penalties at June 30, 2023 
and 2022. 

The Corporation and the Bank are subject to U.S. federal income tax as an income-based tax and a capital-based financial 
institutions tax in the State of Ohio. The Corporation and the Bank are no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for 
years before 2019.

NOTE 13—REGULATORY MATTERS  

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. 
Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective-action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain 
off-balance-sheet  items  calculated  under  regulatory  accounting  practices.  Capital  amounts  and  classifications  are  also  subject  to 
qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors and the regulators can lower classifications 
in certain cases. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on 
the financial statements.  

The  prompt  corrective  action  regulations  provide  five  classifications,  including  well  capitalized,  adequately  capitalized, 
undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall 
financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital 
distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required. 

As of fiscal year-end 2023 and 2022, the Corporation met the definition of a Small Bank Holding Company and, therefore, 
was exempt from maintaining consolidated regulatory capital ratios. Instead, regulatory capital ratios only apply at the subsidiary 
bank level. The Basel III Capital Rules include a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% that is designed to absorb losses during periods 
of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets above the minimum 
but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of 
the  shortfall.  The  net  unrealized  gain  or  loss  on  available  for  sale  securities  is  not  included  in  computing  regulatory  capital. 
Management believes as of June 30, 2023, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject.   

The following table presents actual and required capital ratios as of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 for the Bank:

As of the latest regulatory examination, the Bank was categorized as well capitalized. There are no conditions or events since 

that examination that management believes may have changed the Bank’s category. 

The Corporation’s principal source of funds for dividend payment is dividends received from the Bank. Banking regulations 
limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior approval of regulatory agencies. Under these regulations, the amount 
of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s net profits, combined with the retained net profits 
of the preceding two years, subject to the capital requirements described above. As of June 30, 2023 the Bank could, without prior 
approval, declare a dividend of approximately $21,811.

 NOTE 14—COMMITMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK  

The  Bank  is  a  party  to  commitments  to  extend  credit  in  the  normal  course  of business  to  meet  the  financing  needs  of  its 
customers. Commitments are agreements to lend to customers providing that there are no violations of any condition established in 
the  contract.  Commitments  to  extend  credit  have  a  fixed  expiration date  or  other  termination  clause.  These  instruments  involve 
elements of credit and interest rate risk more than the amount recognized in the statements of financial position. The Bank uses the 
same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. 

The  Bank  evaluates  each  customer’s  credit  on  a  case-by-case  basis.  The  amount  of  collateral  obtained  is  based  on 
management’s credit evaluation of the customer. The amount of commitments to extend credit and the exposure to credit loss for 
non-performance  by  the  customer  (before  considering  collateral)  was  $142,767  and  $148,390  as  of  June  30,  2023  and  2022, 
respectively. As of June 30, 2023, $126,698 of the commitments carried variable rates and $16,069 carried fixed rates with interest 
rates  ranging from  3.05% to 11.00% with maturity dates from July 2023 to August 2060. As of June 30, 2022, $119,637 of the 
commitments carried variable rates and $28,753 carried fixed rates with interest rates ranging from 2.62% to 8.25% with maturity 
dates from July 2022 to December 2053. Financial standby letters of credit were $1,178 and $1,110 as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, 
respectively. In addition, commitments to extend credit of $11,834 and $11,621 as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, were 
available to checking account customers related to the overdraft protection program. Since some loan commitments expire without 
being used, the amount does not necessarily represent future cash commitments. 

NOTE 15—FAIR VALUE  

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal 
or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement 
date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values: 

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access 

as of the measurement date. 

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; 

quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. 

Level  3:  Significant  unobservable  inputs  that  reflect  a  company’s  own  assumptions  about  the  assumptions  that  market 

participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. 

Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include the following: 

Securities available-for-sale and equity securities: When available, the fair values of available-for-sale and equity securities 
are  determined  by  obtaining quoted  prices  on  nationally  recognized  securities  exchanges  (Level  1  inputs).  For  securities  where 
quoted market prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2 inputs). For 
securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted 
cash flows or other unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below, segregated by the level of the valuation 

inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the 2023 or the 2022 fiscal year. 

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at 
fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances. Assets and liabilities measured at 
fair value on a non-recurring basis include the following: 

Impaired Loans: At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans 
carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses or are charged down to their fair value. 
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 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. 

Other  Real  Estate  and  Repossessed  Assets  Owned:  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. Real estate owned properties and other repossessed assets, which are primarily 
vehicles, are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. There was no other real estate owned 
or other repossessed assets being carried at fair value as of June 30, 2023 or June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, the balance of other 
real estate owned was $124. 

There were no assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at June 30, 2023 or 2022 and there was no impact to the 

provision for loan losses for the twelve months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

The assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows: 

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying value of cash and deposits in other financial institutions were considered to approximate 
fair value resulting in a Level 1 classification. 

Certificates of deposits in other  financial institutions: Fair value of certificates of deposits in other financial institutions was 
estimated using current rates for deposits of similar remaining maturities resulting in a Level 2 classification. 

Accrued interest receivable  and payable,  demand and  savings deposits and short-term borrowings: The carrying value of 
accrued interest receivable and payable, demand and savings deposits and short-term borrowings were considered to approximate 
fair value due to their short-term duration resulting in a Level 2 classification. 

Loans held for sale: The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party 
investors resulting in a Level 2 classification. 

Loans: Fair value for loans was estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics.  The estimated fair value 
approximates carrying value for variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk. The fair 
value of fixed-rate loans and variable-rate loans which reprice on an infrequent basis is estimated by discounting future cash flows 
using the current interest rates at which similar loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting 
in a Level 3 classification. An overall valuation adjustment is made for specific credit risks as well as general portfolio credit risk. 
The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price. 

Securities  held-to-maturity:  The  held-to-maturity  securities  are  general  obligation  and  revenue  bonds  issued  by  local 
municipalities. The fair value of these securities are calculated using a spread to the applicable municipal fair market curve resulting 
in a Level 3 classification. 

Time deposits: Fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit was estimated using the rates offered at June 30, 2023 and 2022 
for deposits of similar remaining maturities, resulting in Level 2 classification. Estimated fair value does not include the benefit that 
results from low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market. 

Federal Home Loan Bank advances: Fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances was estimated using current rates at June 
30, 2023 and 2022 for similar financing resulting in a Level 2 classification. 

Federal bank and other restricted stocks, at cost: Federal bank and other restricted stocks include stock acquired for regulatory 
purposes, such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock and Federal Reserve Bank stock that are accounted for at cost due to restrictions 
placed on their transferability, and, therefore, are not subject to the fair value disclosure requirements. 

Off-balance sheet commitments: The Corporation’s lending commitments have variable interest rates and “escape” clauses if the 
customer’s credit quality deteriorates. Therefore, the fair values of these items are not significant and are not included in the above 
table. 

NOTE 16—AFFORDABLE TAX CREDIT PARTNERSHIP 

In April 2023, the Corporation invested in a limited partnership that will in turn invest in qualified affordable housing projects 
that will generate tax benefits for the limited partner investors, including federal low-income housing tax credits pursuant to Section 
42 of the Internal Revenue Code. This partnership investment is  an unconsolidated Variable Interest Entity (VIE) for which the 
Corporation  holds  an  interest  in  but  is  not  the  primary  beneficiary  of  the  VIE.  The  purpose  of  this  investment  is  to  achieve  a 
satisfactory return on capital, to facilitate the sale of additional affordable housing product offerings, and to assist in achieving goals 
associated  with  the  Community  Reinvestment  Act.  The  primary  activities  of  the  limited  partnership  include  the  identification, 
development,  and  operation  of  multi-family  housing  that  is  leased  to  qualifying  residential  tenants.  Generally,  these  types  of 
investments are funded through a combination of debt and equity. 

The Corporation uses the proportional amortization method to account for its investment. The investment is included in other 
assets and the unfunded commitment is included in other liabilities. As of June 30, 2023, the balance of the affordable housing tax 
credit investment was $10,250 and the balance of the associated unfunded commitment was $9,668. As a limited partner, there is no 
recourse to the Corporation by the creditors of the limited partnership, however, the tax credits are generally subject to recapture 
should the partnership fail to comply with the applicable government regulations.

NOTE 18—EARNINGS PER SHARE 

Basic earnings per share is the amount of earnings available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting 
period and is equal to net income divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings 
per share is the amount of earnings available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period adjusted to 
include the effect of potentially dilutive common shares that may be issued upon the vesting of restricted stock awards and restricted 
stock units. There were 14,800 shares of restricted stock and 9,078 restricted stock units that were anti-dilutive for the year ending 
June 30, 2023. There were 7,911 shares of restricted stock that were anti-dilutive for the year ending June 30, 2022. The following 
table details the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

NOTE 20 – REVENUE RECOGNITION 

The Corporation accounts for revenues from contracts with customers under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. 
Interest income, net securities gains (losses), gains from the sale of mortgage loans and bank-owned life insurance are not included 
within the scope of ASC 606. For the revenue streams in the scope of ASC 606, service charges on deposits and electronic banking fees, 
there are no significant judgments related to the amount and timing of revenue recognition. All the Corporation's revenue from contracts 
with customers is recognized within noninterest income. 

Service  charges  on  deposit  accounts:  The  Corporation  earns  fees  from  its  deposit  customers  for  transaction-based,  account 
maintenance and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as stop payment charges, statement rendering 
and other fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Corporation fulfills the customer's 
request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing 
the period over which the Corporation satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the 
overdraft occurs. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer's account balance. 

Interchange  income:  The  Corporation  earns  interchange  income  from  cardholder  transactions  conducted  through  the  various 
payment networks. Interchange income from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are 
recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder. The gross amount of these fees are 
processed through noninterest income.  

Other income: Other noninterest income consists of other recurring revenue streams such as check order fees, wire transfer fees, 
and other miscellaneous revenue streams. Check order income mainly represents fees charged to customers for checks. Wire transfer 
fees represent revenue from processing wire transfers. 

The following table presents the Corporation's sources of noninterest income for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. 

Noninterest income 
In scope of Topic 606: 

Service charges on deposit accounts 
Debit card interchange income

Item 9A—Controls and Procedures   

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

With the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an 
evaluation  of  the  effectiveness  of  the  Corporation’s  disclosure  controls  and procedures  (as  defined  under  Rule  13a-15(e)  of  the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) was performed, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based 
on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and 
procedures were effective. 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 

The  management  of  Consumers  Bancorp,  Inc.  is  responsible  for  establishing  and  maintaining  adequate  internal  control  over 
financial  reporting.  Internal  control over  financial  reporting  is  a process  designed  by, or  under  the  supervision  of,  our  principal 
executive  and  principal  financial  officers  and  effected  by  the  board  of  directors,  management,  and  other  personnel  to  provide 
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes 
in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. 

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023 based on the criteria 
for  effective  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  established  in  “Internal  Control-Integrated  Framework,”  issued  by  the 
Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  (COSO)  of  the  Treadway  Commission  in  2013.  Based  on  that  assessment,  we  have 
concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria. 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Corporation’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal 
control  over  financial  reporting.  Management’s  report  was  not  subject  to  attestation  by  the  Corporation’s  registered  public 
accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Corporation to provide only management’s report in this annual report. 

Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 

There were no changes in the Corporation’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of 
fiscal year 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal controls over 
financial reporting.
