Mt. Washington Savings Bank Reports Financial Results For The Three And Six Months Ended December 31, 2014

CINCINNATI, Feb. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Mt. Washington Savings Bank (the "Bank"), the wholly-owned subsidiary of MW Bancorp, Inc. (OTC Pink Marketplace: MWBC), announced net income of $81,000 and $79,000 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014, respectively. This compares to net losses of $411,000 and $435,000 for the three and six-months ended December 31, 2013.

Net interest income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014 increased $91,000 and $158,000, respectively, from the comparable periods in 2013 due primarily to an increase in the net interest margin.

The provision for loan losses for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014 was $185,000 and $200,000 less than the comparable periods in 2013, as the Bank experienced declines in net loan charge-offs, non-accrual loans, classified loans and loans past due 30 days or more at and for the six months ended December 31, 2014 compared to the same period ended December 31, 2013.

Non-interest income increased for the three-and six-month periods ended December 31, 2014, by $57,000 and $15,000, respectively, due primarily to an increase in gains on sales of mortgage loans and, in the three month period, an improvement in gain (loss) on sale of foreclosed assets.

Non-interest expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014 was $159,000 and $156,000 less than the comparable periods ended December 31, 2013. The Bank reported decreases in salaries and employee benefits, along with other expense items, due to management's continuing focus on cost controls.
