EUREKA FINANCIAL CORP. ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS
FOR THE QUARTER AND YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2014

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania – Eureka Financial Corp., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (the “Company”), the parent company for Eureka Bank (the “Bank”), today announced net income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 of $415,000, or $0.35 diluted earnings per share, as compared to $371,000, or $0.31 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2013.  For the year ended September 30, 2014, the Company reported net income of $1.5 million, or $1.28 diluted earnings per share, as compared to net income of $1.4 million, or $1.14 diluted earnings per share, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.  The increase in income for the quarter and year ended September 30, 2014 was primarily due to higher net interest income, which was partially offset by increases in non-interest expense.

President and Chief Executive Officer Edward Seserko stated, “The Company is pleased to report that fiscal 2014 was another very strong year despite the difficult economic environment.  The Company continued to manage liquidity and used a $10.4 million increase in deposit growth to increase cash and investments and fund the loan portfolio, which increased by $6.7 million to $128.1 million from $121.4 million at September 30, 2013. This reallocation of funds helped the Company maintain an annualized yield on interest earning assets of 4.85% and a net interest margin of 4.15% for the year ended September 30, 2014.  The Bank continues to exceed all minimum capital requirements and is considered “well capitalized.”  Also, non-accruing loans, or loans over 90 days delinquent, consisted of only two loans totaling $848,000 at September 30, 2014 on a loan portfolio in excess of $128 million.”

The Bank, founded in 1886, is a federally chartered stock savings bank and operates two offices in the city of Pittsburgh.  The Company’s common stock trades in the over-the-counter market under the symbol “EKFC.”
