All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Any differences appearing between the numbers presented in the financial statements and managements discussion and analysis are due to rounding. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year or for any other period.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Unrealized losses on securities have not been recognized because the issuers securities are of high credit quality (rated AA or higher), management does not intend to sell and it is not more likely than not that management would be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value was largely due to changes in interest rates. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach maturity.

NOTE 3 - LOANS (Continued)
No additional loan commitments were outstanding to these borrowers at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. Loans are returned to accrual status after a period of satisfactory payment performance under the terms of the restructuring, but no earlier than six months.
There were no new troubled debt restructurings made during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. There were no troubled debt restructurings for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. There was one troubled debt restructuring in the amount of $202 for which there was a payment default during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and it was placed on non-accrual status.
The terms of certain other loans were modified during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 that did not meet the definition of a troubled debt restructuring. These loan balances were not material in the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.
In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Companys internal underwriting policy.
Credit Quality Indicators:
The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes one to four-family, multi-family and commercial real estate loans, home equity loans, and consumer and other. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves managements close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the Companys 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 Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

NOTE 4 - FAIR VALUES
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (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 value:
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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands, except per share and share data)
NOTE 4 - FAIR VALUES (Continued)
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a companys own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the following items:
Securities: The fair values of trading securities and securities available-for-sale are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2).
Impaired Loans: At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value of underlying collateral. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrowers financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on managements historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and managements expertise and knowledge of the client and clients business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.
Other Real Estate 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. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.
Appraisals for both collateral dependent impaired loans and real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value.

The methods and assumptions, not previously presented, used to estimate fair values are described as follows:
(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1
(b) Securities Held-to-Maturity
The carrying amounts of held to maturity securities are determined using a pricing matrix resulting in a Level 2 classification.

NOTE 4 - FAIR VALUES (Continued)
(c) FHLB Stock
It is not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.
(d) Loans
The fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value as described previously. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.
(e) Accrued Interest Receivable
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value and is classified as Level 2 for securities and Level 3 for loans.
(f) Deposits
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) and are classified as Level 1. The carrying amounts of variable rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date are classified as a Level 2. Fair values for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.
(g) Federal Home Loan Bank Advances
The fair value of fixed rate Federal Home Loan Bank advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on current rates for similar advances resulting in a Level 2 classification
(h) Advances from Borrowers for Taxes
The carrying values of advances from borrowers for taxes approximate fair value and are classified as Level 2.
(i) Accrued Interest Payable
The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value and is classified as Level 2.

NOTE 5 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
According to the provisions of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, non-vested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and are included in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. ESOP shares are considered outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share when the shares are committed to be released. The Companys non-vested restricted stock awards qualify as participating securities.
Net income is allocated between the common stock and participating securities pursuant to the two-class method, based on their rights to receive dividends, participate in earnings or absorb losses. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding participating non-vested restricted shares.
The table below calculates the earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015:

NOTE 6 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
The Companys 2014 Equity Incentive Plan provides for grants of stock options, stock awards, stock units, awards, performance stock awards, stock appreciations rights, and other equity-based awards to key employees and nonemployee directors. As of March 31, 2016, the Company has only granted stock options and stock awards. The Company recognizes stock compensation costs for services received in a share-based payment transaction over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period.
For stock options, certain key employees and nonemployee directors were granted options to purchase shares of the Companys common stock at fair value at the date of the grant (exercise price). The options become exercisable in equal installments over a five-year period from the date of grant, and they expire ten years from the date of grant. Compensation cost is determined by estimating the fair value of the option on the date of the grant using a closed form option valuation (Black-Scholes) model. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Companys common stock. The expected term of options granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferrable. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, there were no options, granted, vested, forfeited or exercised and 1,375 options with a strike price of $20.72 expired. Total unrecognized compensation expense for stock options was $87 as of March 31, 2016. Compensation expense totaled $6 and $7 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Management expects outstanding options to vest over the weighted average remaining vesting period of 3.3 years.
For stock awards, the compensation cost is based on the grant date fair value of the award (as determined by quoted market prices) and is recognized over the vesting period. The Companys stock awards vest based on a service period of five years. The unamortized cost of shares not yet earned (vested) is reported as a reduction of stockholders equity. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, there were 3,000 awards granted, and no awards vested, forfeited or expired. Total unrecognized compensation expense for awards was $455 as of March 31, 2016. Compensation expense totaled $33 and $34 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Management expects outstanding awards to vest over the weighted average remaining vesting period of 3.4 years.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements and information relating to the Company and the Bank that are based on the beliefs of management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words like believe, expect, anticipate, estimate, and intend or future or conditional verbs such as will, should, could, or may and similar expressions or the negative thereof. Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results include, changes in the interest rate environment, changes in general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes that adversely affect the business of the Company and the Bank, and changes in the securities markets. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q to reflect future events or developments.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. By their nature, changes in these assumptions and estimates could significantly affect our financial position or results of operations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
On April 5, 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the JOBS Act) was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. As an emerging growth company we may delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Accordingly, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
Discussed below are selected critical accounting policies that are of particular significance to us.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by charge-offs less recoveries. We estimate the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience; known and inherent losses in the nature and volume of the portfolio that are both probable and estimable; 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 our judgment, should be charged off. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when we believe that the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed.
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or doubtful. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on actual historical loss experience determined by portfolio loan segment adjusted for current factors. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other economic factors based on the risks present for each portfolio loan segment, such as real estate trends and national and local economic conditions. As greater risk is associated with loans classified as special mention and substandard that are not impaired, the Company considers the actual historical loss experience by loan segment, the levels of loans classified as special mention and substandard, and the trends in the collateral associated with these classifications.
Non-performing loans and impaired loans are defined differently. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. A loan is non-performing when it is on non-accrual or greater than 90 days past due. Some loans may be included in both categories, whereas other loans may only be included in one category. Our policy requires that all non-homogeneous loans past due greater than 90 days be classified as impaired and non-performing. However, performing loans may also be classified as impaired when we do not expect to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement even though the borrower may be current or less than 90 days past due on repaying a loan. 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 us 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. We determine the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrowers prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.
Multifamily and commercial real estate loans are individually evaluated for impairment. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loans existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as consumer and residential real estate loans are collectively evaluated for impairment, and accordingly, are not separately identified for impairment disclosures.
Troubled debt restructurings are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loans effective 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, we determine the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan losses.
The following portfolio segments have been identified: One-to four-family, multifamily and commercial, home equity, consumer and other. Substantially all of the loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets, and commercial and residential real estate. Commercial real estate loans are expected to be repaid from cash flows from operations of businesses and consumer loans are expected to be repaid from personal cash flows. There are no significant concentrations of loans to any one industry or customer. Risk factors impacting loans in each of the portfolio segments include local and national real estate values, local and national economic factors affecting borrowers employment prospects and income levels, levels and movement of interest rates and general availability of credit, and overall economic sentiment.
Other Real Estate 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. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Operating costs after acquisition are expensed.
Realization of Deferred Tax Asset. The future realization of a deferred tax asset ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character, (for example, ordinary income or capital gain) within the carry back and carry forward period available under the tax law. We evaluate the future realization of the deferred tax asset on a quarterly basis and establish a valuation allowance predicated on consideration of future performance as well as tax planning strategies available to us. Tax-planning strategies are actions that we would take in order to prevent an operating loss or tax credit carry forward from expiring unused. In order for a tax-planning strategy to be considered, it must be prudent and feasible and result in realization of the deferred tax assets.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 4. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Some of these estimates are not necessarily indicative of an exit price. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.
Overview
We had net income of $172,000, or $0.08 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to net income of $75,000, or $0.04 per share, for the same period in 2015. The increase in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the prior year period was mainly attributable to a $75,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses, and an $85,000 decrease in non-interest expense, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income as a result of $39,000 decline in gain on sale of securities and a $40,000 increase in income tax expense.
Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015
Assets. Total consolidated assets as of March 31, 2016 were $207.0 million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 0.9%, from $208.9 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease was due to declines in securities available-for-sale and net loans, partially offset by an increase in cash and cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents increased $5.1 million, or 17.1%, to $35.0 million at March 31, 2016 from $29.9 million at December 31, 2015. The primary reason for the increase in cash and cash equivalents was due to increased liquidity as a result of a $5.5 million decrease in the securities available-for-sale portfolio, a $1.2 million decrease in net loans, and a $1.9 million increase in deposits, partially offset by the repayment of maturing Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances of $3.0 million.
Securities available-for-sale decreased $5.5 million, or 10.9%, to $44.5 million at March 31, 2016 from $49.9 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease was primarily due to securities available-for-sale principal repayments, calls and sales of $10.0 million exceeding new securities purchases of $4.0 million due to a lack of suitable reinvestment alternatives and an increase in the fair value of available-for-sale securities of $523,000 as a result of the decrease in interest rates during the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Net loans decreased $1.2 million, or 1.1%, to $113.3 million at March 31, 2016 from $114.4 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease was primarily attributable to declines in our multifamily and commercial real estate and home equity loan portfolios during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Multifamily and commercial real estate loans declined $668,000, or 7.7%, to $8.0 million at March 31, 2016 from $8.7 million at December 31, 2015. Home equity loans decreased $294,000, or 4.6%, to $6.1 million at March 31, 2016 from $6.4 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease in the multifamily and commercial real estate loan portfolio was due to aggressive price competition for these loans in the Banks marketplace.
Liabilities. Total liabilities decreased $1.9 million, or 1.1%, to $173.6 million at March 31, 2016 from $175.4 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease in total liabilities was primarily due to declines in FHLB advances and advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance, partially offset by an increase in deposits.
Deposits. Total deposits increased $1.9 million, or 1.1%, to $167.5 million at March 31, 2016 from $165.6 million at December 31, 2015. Money market accounts increased $1.4 million, or 22.5%, to $6.4 million at March 31, 2016 from $5.0 million at December 31, 2015 due to an increase in municipal deposits. Passbook account balances grew $752,000, or 1.1%, to $70.2 million at March 31, 2016 from $69.5 million at December 31, 2015. NOW and checking account balances increased $535,000, or 1.5%, to $35.0 million at March 31, 2016 from $34.5 million at December 31, 2015. The increase in our money market accounts and lower cost core deposits, which we consider being our passbook, NOW and checking accounts, were partially offset by a decrease in our certificates of deposit. Higher cost certificates of deposit decreased $881,000, or 1.6%, to $55.8 million at March 31, 2016 from $56.7
million at December 31, 2015. The decline in the balance of certificates of deposit was attributable to legacy certificate of deposit customers seeking higher yields as accounts re-priced to current lower market interest rates upon maturity and/or moving maturing certificates into more liquid core deposit accounts in anticipation of higher interest rates.
FHLB Advances. FHLB of Chicago advances decreased $3.0 million, or 60.0%, to $2.0 million at March 31, 2016 from $5.0 million at December 31, 2015. We repaid our maturing FHLB advance of $3.0 million with a weighted average interest rate of 2.71% during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The remaining $2.0 million FHLB of Chicago advance at March 31, 2016 carries a fixed rate of 2.32% and matures in May 2016.
ESOP Repurchase Obligation. The ESOP repurchase obligation increased $159,000, or 16.0% to $1.15 million at March 31, 2016 from $993,000 at December 31, 2015. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the market value of the vested portion of the common stock held in the ESOP.
Stockholders Equity. Total stockholders equity decreased $159,000, or 0.5%, to $32.3 million at March 31, 2016 from $32.5 million at December 31, 2015. The Company repurchased 29,400 common shares at an average price of $14.54 per share from the third stock repurchase program for a total cost of $427,000 and paid cash dividends on common stock of $102,000 which were partially offset by net income of $172,000 and a decrease in the unrealized loss on securities classified as available-for-sale of $318,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. In addition, an increase in the ESOP repurchase obligation resulted in a $159,000 decrease in stockholders equity. Book value per share was $14.92 at March 31, 2016 as compared to $14.82 at December 31, 2015.

Non-performing Assets and Allowance for Loan Losses. We had non-performing assets of $1.9 million, or 0.90% of total assets, as of March 31, 2016 and $1.6 million, or 0.78% of total assets, as of December 31, 2015. The increase in nonperforming assets during the quarter was primarily due to an increase in nonaccrual loans with three loans aggregating $457,000 being placed on nonaccrual during the quarter. Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015 were $27,000 and $48,000 respectively. The allowance for loan losses totaled $901,000 at March 31, 2016 and $988,000 at December 31, 2015. This represents a ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans of 0.79% at March 31, 2016 and 0.86% at December 31, 2015. The slight decrease in the allowance for loan losses to total loans was due to a decline in the historical loss factors on multi-family and commercial real estate loans collectively evaluated for impairment, a $3.3 million decrease in the level of classified assets which have higher loss factors assigned, and the continued reduced risk profile of the loan portfolio.
At March 31, 2016, we had 24 one- to four-family residential loans, one home equity loan, and four multifamily and commercial real estate loans with an aggregate principal balance of $1.7 million, none of which had an individual principal balance in excess of $500,000 on nonaccrual status. At December 31, 2015, we had 26 one-to four-family residential loans and home equity lines of credit with an aggregate principal balance of $973,000 and had three commercial real estate loans with an aggregate principal balance of $350,000 on non-accrual.
At March 31, 2016, we had 10 one- to four-family residential loans and four multifamily and commercial real estate loans classified as troubled debt restructurings with an aggregate principal balance of $2.2 million, of which $573,000 was on non-accrual status. At December 31, 2015, we had 11 one-to four- family residential loans and four commercial real estate loans classified as troubled debt restructurings with an aggregate principal balance of $2.2 million of which $381,000 was on non-accrual status.
At December 31, 2015, we had a $3.5 million commercial real estate loan secured by a golf course located in Flossmoor, Illinois which was performing in accordance with its terms and was on accrual status but was classified as substandard. Borrowers risk ratings are reassessed annually when the borrowers financial statements are received. Based on the most recent financial statements of the borrower, we determined that the borrowers improved financial condition supports the expected full collection of principal and interest. As a result, the loan was classified as a pass credit as of March 31, 2016.
Although we record our non-performing assets at the estimated fair value of the property or underlying collateral less costs to sell, there may be additional losses on these loans and other real estate owned properties in the future.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015
General. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $172,000 an increase of $97,000 or 129.7%, compared to net income of $75,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase was mainly attributable to a decline in the provision for loan losses of $75,000, and an $85,000 decrease in non-interest expense, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income primarily due to a $39,000 decline in gain on sale of securities and a $40,000 increase in income tax expense.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $19,000 to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to the same period in 2015. The increase was due to a 10 basis points, or 4.4% improvement in the net interest margin to 2.36% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to 2.26% for the same period in 2015, partially offset by a 2.8% decline in average interest-earning assets.
Interest Income. Total interest income was stable at $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. The slight decrease was primarily due to a $5.6 million, or 2.8% decrease in average interest-earning assets, partially offset by a four basis point increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets to 2.69% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to 2.65% for the same period in 2015. The decline in the average balance of interest-earning assets was primarily due to using the proceeds from calls and repayments of lower yielding securities available-for-sale portfolio and deposit inflows for funding the repayment of maturing FHLB advances.
Interest income from loans decreased by $33,000, or 2.9%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to the same period in 2015. The decline in interest income from loans was due to an 11 basis points decrease in the average yield on loans to 3.78% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from 3.89% for the same period in 2015. The decrease in the average yield on loans was primarily caused by lower yields earned on new loan originations and repayments of higher yielding multifamily and commercial real estate loans as a result of the prolonged low interest rate environment.
Interest income from securities decreased $4,000, or 2.3%, to $171,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $175,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The decrease primarily resulted from a $7.5 million, or 13.8% decrease in the average securities balance, partially offset by a 17 basis points increase in the average securities yield for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015, as proceeds from maturing securities were used to repay FHLB advances. The average yield on securities increased to 1.45% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from 1.28% for the same period in 2015.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $36,000, or 31.9%, to $159,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $195,000 for the same period in 2015. The primary reasons for the decrease were due to the $6.9 million, or 4.5% decrease in the average balance of interest- bearing liabilities and an eight basis points decline in the average interest rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities.
Average interest bearing liabilities were $147.3 million and $154.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the repayment of maturing FHLB advances and lower deposit balances.
Interest expense on deposits decreased by $7,000, or 4.8%, to $139,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $146,000 for the same period in 2015. Our average cost of deposits decreased one basis point to 0.39% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from 0.40% for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Average interest-bearing deposit balances decreased $2.4 million to $143.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $146.2 million for the same period in 2015 due primarily to a $5.5 million decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposit and a $1.8 million decrease in the average balance of money market accounts, partially offset by a $4.0 million increase in the average balance of passbook accounts. The decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposit was attributable to legacy certificates of deposit customers seeking higher yields as accounts re-price to current lower market interest rates upon maturity and/or moving maturing certificates into more liquid core deposit accounts in anticipation of higher interest rates.
Interest expense on FHLB advances decreased $29,000, or 59.2%, to $20,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $49,000 for the same period in 2015. The primary reason for the decrease was a $4.5 million, or 56.3% decrease in the average balance of FHLB of Chicago advances due to the repayment of maturing FHLB advances, and a 16 basis point decrease in the average cost of FHLB advances to 2.29% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 due to the payoff of higher cost advances.
Average Balances, Net Interest Income and Yields Earned and Rates Paid

Provision for Loan Losses. We establish a provision for loan losses, which is charged to operations, at a level management believes is appropriate to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events change. Based on our evaluation of these factors, we recorded a $60,000 credit to the provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and a $15,000 provision for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The credit provision was due to a decline in historical loss factors, reduction in the level of substandard assets and having net charge-offs for the current quarter of $27,000 compared to $48,000 in 2015. The allowance for loan losses was $901,000, or 0.79% of total loans, at March 31, 2016 compared to $988,000, or 0.86% of total loans, at December 31, 2015. The decrease in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was due to a decline in the historical loss factors on one- to-four family, multifamily and commercial real estate loans collectively evaluated for impairment, a $3.3 million decrease in loans classified as substandard which have higher loss factors assigned, and the continued reduced risk profile of the loan portfolio,
Management assesses the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis and makes provisions for loan losses as necessary in order to maintain the adequacy of the allowance. While management uses available information to recognize and provide for losses on loans, future loan loss provisions may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require us to recognize additional provisions based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination. The allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2016 was maintained at a level that represents managements best estimate of inherent losses in the loan portfolio, and such losses that were both probable and reasonably estimable.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $42,000 to $177,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $219,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The decrease was primarily due to a $39,000 decrease in gain on securities sales due to less sales activity in 2016.
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense decreased $85,000, or 6.9%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease was primarily due to a $38,000 decrease in compensation and employee benefits expense, a $23,000 decline in professional and regulatory expense, and a $23,000 decrease in other real estate owned expense/impairment.
Compensation and employee benefits expense decreased $38,000, or 6.3% to $565,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $603,000 for the same period in 2015. The primary reasons for the decrease were lower compensation expense related to reduced headcount, and decreases in medical insurance, payroll tax and stock related compensation expenses.
Professional and regulatory expense decreased $23,000 to $70,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $93,000 for the same period in 2015. The decrease was primarily due to lower legal, audit and SEC reporting fees.
Other real estate owned expense/impairment decreased $23,000 to $6,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $29,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The decrease was primarily due to lower carrying costs primarily due to the sale in the fourth quarter of 2015 of the Banks largest other real estate owned property.
Income Tax Expense. We recorded an income tax expense of $62,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to income tax expense of $22,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in the income tax expense was primarily due to the $137,000 increase in income before income taxes for the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We maintain liquid assets at levels we consider adequate to meet our liquidity needs. Our liquidity ratio averaged 42.4% and 42.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2015, respectively. We adjust our liquidity levels to fund deposit outflows, pay real estate taxes on mortgage loans, to fund the repayment of borrowings and loan commitments. We also adjust liquidity as appropriate to meet our asset and liability management objectives.
Our primary sources of liquidity are deposits, amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, and earnings and funds provided from operations. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. We set the interest rates on our deposits to maintain a desired level of total deposits. In addition, we invest excess funds in short-term interest-earning investments and other assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. Short-term interest-earning deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago amounted to $32.1 million at March 31, 2016 and $26.7 million at December 31, 2015.
A significant portion of our liquidity consists of securities classified as available-for-sale and cash and cash equivalents, which are a product of our operating, investing and financing activities. Our primary sources of cash are principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities and increases in deposit accounts, along with advances from the FHLB of Chicago.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the FHLB of Chicago and JP Morgan Chase which provides an additional source of funds. At March 31, 2016, we had $2.0 million in advances outstanding and were eligible to borrow an additional $70.0 million from the FHLB of Chicago. At March 31, 2016, we had no balance outstanding on the $5.0 million line of credit at JP Morgan Chase. The $2.0 million in FHLB advances outstanding at March 31, 2016 mature in May 2016.
Our cash flows are comprised of three classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $113,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the $493,000 used in the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2016 compared to used in 2015 was primarily due to 2015 period including a $540,000 reduction in dividend payable related to the special $.25 cash dividend declared in 2014 and paid in the first quarter of 2015, and higher net income in the March 31, 2016 quarter compared to the prior year period.
Net cash provided by investing activities, which consists primarily of disbursements for loan originations and the purchase of securities, offset by principal collections on loans, proceeds from the sales, calls, repayments and maturities of securities, was $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Net cash provided by investing activities was $28,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we purchased $4.0 million and sold $3.2 million in securities classified as available-for sale, and during the three months ended March 31, 2015, we purchased $7.0 million and sold $3.3 million in securities classified as available-for-sale.
Net cash used in financing activities, consisting primarily of deposit account activity, FHLB advance and stock activity, repurchases of the Companys common stock, and dividends paid to our stockholders, was $2.2 million and $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease in cash used in the 2016 period was primarily due to $4.0 million in lower FHLB advance repayments.
At March 31, 2016, we had outstanding commitments of $2.3 million to originate loans. This amount does not include the unfunded portion of loans in process. At March 31, 2016, certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in less than one year totaled $29.2 million. Based on prior experience, management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with us, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. In addition, the cost of such deposits may be significantly higher upon renewal in a rising interest rate environment.
We are required to maintain liquid assets in an amount that would ensure our safe and sound operation. Our liquidity ratio at March 31, 2016 was 43.7%.
Regulatory Capital
Prior to 20105, capital requirements did not apply to savings and loan holding companies. Beginning in 2015, as the Company is a Small Savings and Loan Holding Company under the Federal Reserves policy statement with consolidated assets under $1 billion, regulatory capital requirements apply only to the Bank. The Bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, 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. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. The final rules implementing Basel Committee on Banking Supervisions capital guidelines for U.S. banks (Basel III rules) became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015 with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019. Beginning in 2016, a Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB) requirement became effective for banking organizations. The CCB is designed to establish a capital range above minimum requirements to insure
banks from periods of stress and impose constraints on distributions and discretionary bonus payments if capital levels fall below the institution- specific capital buffer level. The CCB in 2016 is 0.625% and increases 0.625% annually through 2019 to 2.5%. The net unrealized gain or loss on available for sale securities, is not included in the computation of regulatory capital. Management believes as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institutions category.
At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action capital ratios. The following table summarizes the Banks capital amounts and ratios, together with capital adequacy requirements including the related CCB, under regulatory requirements as of March 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles are not recorded in our consolidated financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit. The contractual amount of financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk was as follows (dollars in thousands):

Commitments to make loans are generally made for periods of 120 days or less. At March 31, 2016, the fixed rate loan commitments had interest rates ranging from 2.75% to 4.50% and the commitments are to extend credit ranging from 10 to 30 years. The variable rate loan commitments are for home equity lines of credit tied to the prime rate at an initial rate of 3.50% for a term of 5 years.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, we did not engage in any off-balance-sheet transactions other than loan origination commitments, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit in the normal course of our lending activities.
