Exhibit 99.1
Bogota Financial Corp. Reports Results for the
Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
NEWS PROVIDED BY
Bogota Financial Corp.
Teaneck, New Jersey, April 30, 2024 – Bogota Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: BSBK) (the “Company”), the holding company for Bogota Savings Bank (the “Bank”), reported net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 of $441,000, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $993,000, or $0.08 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable prior year period.
Other Financial Highlights:
| • | Total assets increased $21.9 million, or 2.3%, to $961.2 million at March 31, 2024 from $939.3 million at December 31, 2023, due to an increase in securities, offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and loans. |
| • | Cash and cash equivalents decreased $10.5 million, or 42.1%, to $14.4 million at March 31, 2024 from $24.9 million at December 31, 2023 as excess funds were used to purchase securities. |
| • | Securities increased $37.0 million, or 26.1%, to $178.5 million at March 31, 2024 from $141.5 million at December 31, 2023. |
| • | Net loans decreased $5.9 million, or 0.8%, to $708.8 million at March 31, 2024 from $714.7 million at December 31, 2023. |
| • | Total deposits at March 31, 2024 were $665.5 million, increasing $40.2 million, or 6.4%, as compared to $625.3 million at December 31, 2023, primarily due to a $41.0 million increase in interest-bearing deposits primarily in certificates of deposit, offset by a $780,000 decrease in non-interest bearing demand accounts. The average rate on deposits increased 32 basis points to 3.74% for the first quarter of 2024 from 3.42% for 2023 due to higher interest rates and a larger percentage of deposits consisting of higher-costing certificates of deposit. |
| • | Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $18.4 million, or 11.0% to $149.3 million at March 31, 2024 from $167.7 million as of December 31, 2023. |
Kevin Pace, President and Chief Executive Officer, said “Interest rates remaining elevated will continue to negatively impact funding costs and our net interest margin. We are actively employing strategies to combat the ‘higher for longer’ interest rate expectations of the Federal Reserve. Our credit quality remains strong and we will continue to be prudent lenders in this environment. We continue to remain positive in our ability to navigate the current landscape. Growth remains a key focus in our strategic plan as we remain committed to delivering value to our shareholders and customers.”
“The Bank opened its newest branch location in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, on April 13th. We are excited for the opportunity this expansion will bring to our growth strategy. This physical location allows us to enhance our presence in the northern Bergen County market and become more active in those communities.”
Income Statement Analysis
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023
Net income decreased by $1.4 million, or 144.4%, to a net loss of $441,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from net income of $993,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $1.9 million in net interest income, partially offset by a decrease of $585,000 in income tax expense.
Interest income increased $1.0 million, or 11.6%, from $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 due to higher yields on interest-earning assets, offset by a decrease in the average balance of loans.
1
Interest income on cash and cash equivalents increased $45,000, or 42.9%, to $150,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $105,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due a 126 basis point increase in the average yield from 4.84% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to 6.10% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 due to the higher interest rate environment. The increase was also due to a $1.1 million increase in the average balance to $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, reflecting the increase of liquidity due to increased deposits and lower loan originations.
Interest income on loans increased $508,000, or 6.6%, to $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due primarily to 29 basis point increase in the average yield from 4.32% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to 4.61% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, offset by a $4.5 million decrease in the average balance to $713.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $718.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Interest income on securities increased $433,000, or 39.5%, to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily due to a 96 basis point increase in the average yield from 2.71% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to 3.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and, to a lesser extent, to a $4.7 million increase in the average balance to $166.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $162.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Interest expense increased $2.9 million, or 64.9%, from $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 due to higher costs and average balances on interest-bearing liabilities.
Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits increased $2.3 million, or 60.7%, to $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was due to a 157 basis point increase in the average cost of deposits to 3.82% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from 2.25% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in the average cost of deposits was due to the higher interest rate environment and a change in the composition of the deposit portfolio. The average balances of certificates of deposit increased $13.1 million to $516.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $503.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 while average NOW and money market accounts and savings accounts decreased $43.3 million and $10.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings increased $663,000, or 85.3%, from $777,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of borrowings of $56.7 million to $153.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $96.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was also due to an increase in the average cost of borrowings of 51 basis points to 3.78% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from 3.27% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to the new borrowings being at higher rates. Cash flow hedges used to manage interest rate risk totaled $105.0 million at March 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the use of the cash flow hedges reduced the interest expense on the Federal Home Loan Bank advances and certificates of deposit by $288,000.
Net interest income decreased $1.9 million, or 41.4%, to $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease reflected a 100 basis point decrease in our net interest rate spread to 0.68% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from 1.68% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Our net interest margin decreased 87 basis points to 1.18% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from 2.05% for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
We recorded a $35,000 provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to no provision for credit losses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. The provision in the first quarter of 2024 was due to an increase in corporate securities.
Non-interest income increased by $16,000, or 5.6%, to $299,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $283,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Bank-owned life insurance income increased $26,000, or 14.0%, due to higher balances during 2024, which was partially offset by a lower gain on sale of loans.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, non-interest expense increased $126,000, or 3.6%, over the comparable 2023 period. Professional fees increased $48,000, or 31.8% due to higher consulting expense related to strategic business planning. FDIC insurance premiums increased $41,000, or 67.7%, due to a higher assessment rate in 2024. Data processing expense increased $27,000, or 9.6%, due to higher processing costs. The decrease in advertising expense of $37,000, or 25.3%, was due to reduced promotions for branch locations and less promotions on deposit and loan products. Other expense increased $67,000, or 37.6%, due to higher loan expense.
Income tax expense decreased $585,000, or 196.2%, to a benefit of $287,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from a $298,000 expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was due to $2.0 million of lower taxable income.

Balance Sheet Analysis
Total assets were $961.2 million at March 31, 2024, representing an increase of $21.9 million, or 2.3%, from December 31, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $10.5 million during the period primarily due to the purchase of new securities offset by loan repayments. Net loans decreased $5.9 million, or 0.82%, due to $11.8 million in repayments, partially offset by new production of $5.9 million, including $6.1 million of commercial real estate loans. Due to the interest rate environment, we have seen a decrease in demand for residential and construction loans, which have been primary drivers of our loan growth in recent periods. Securities held to maturity increased $3.8 million, or 5.3%, and securities available for sale increased $33.2 million or 48.1%, due to new purchases of mortgage-backed securities.
Delinquent loans increased $840,000 to $13.4 million, or 1.89% of total loans, at March 31, 2024. The increase was mostly due to one commercial real estate loan with a balance of $766,000. During the same timeframe, non-performing assets decreased slightly to $12.4 million and were 1.30% of total assets at March 31, 2024. No loans were charged-off during the three months ended March 31, 2024 or March 31, 2023. The Company’s allowance for credit losses was 0.40% of total loans and 22.69% of non-performing loans at March 31, 2024 compared to 0.39% of total loans and 21.81% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2023. The Bank does not have any exposure to commercial real estate loans secured by office space.
Total liabilities increased $22.3 million, or 2.8%, to $824.4 million mainly due to a $41.0 million increase in interest bearing deposits, offset by an $18.4 million decrease in borrowings. Total deposits increased $40.2 million, or 6.4%, to $665.5 million at March 31, 2024 from $625.3 million at December 31, 2023. The increase in deposits reflected an increase in certificate of deposit accounts, which increased by $24.8 million to $518.1 million from $493.3 million at December 31, 2023 and by an increase in NOW deposit accounts, which increased by $16.5 million to $57.8 million from $41.3 million at December 31, 2023, offset by decreases in noninterest bearing demand and money market accounts, which decreased by $1.3 million from $45.2 million at December 31, 2023 to $43.9 million at March 31, 2024. At March 31, 2024, brokered deposits were $90.3 million or 13.6% of deposits and municipal deposits were $59.4 million or 8.9% of deposits. At March 31, 2024, uninsured deposits represented 8.4% of the Bank’s total deposits. Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $18.4 million, or 11.0%, due to repayment of matured borrowings. Total borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank is $316.5 million of which $149.3 million has been advanced.
Total stockholders’ equity decreased $346,000 to $136.8 million, due to a net loss of $441,000, the repurchase of 33,083 shares of stock at a cost of $270,000, offset by a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss for securities available for sale of $80,000 and stock compensation of $234,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. At March 31, 2024, the Company’s ratio of average stockholders’ equity-to-total assets was 14.36%, compared to 15.24% at December 31, 2023.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on net interest income. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. Changes attributable to changes in both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionally based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.
