Northeast Community Bancorp: A Year of Strong Fundamentals and Clean Assets

Northeast Community Bancorp US6641211007

Northeast Community Bancorp has reported a robust performance for its 2025 fiscal year, characterized by significant equity growth and a pristine balance sheet. The complete elimination of non-performing assets and a substantial pipeline of loan commitments suggest the bank's operational momentum is well-positioned to continue.

The bank concluded the year with a net income of $44.4 million. For the full year 2025, earnings per share stood at $3.25. The fourth quarter alone contributed a net profit of $10.8 million, or $0.79 per share. This profitability was driven by a net interest income of $26.4 million in Q4, out of total revenues amounting to $39.6 million for the quarter.

Asset Quality and Balance Sheet Strength

A key highlight of the year-end report is the exceptional quality of the bank's assets. Northeast Community Bancorp successfully reduced its non-performing assets to zero. The total balance sheet reached $2.1 billion, supported by a 10.5% year-over-year increase in equity, which now totals $351.7 million.

The lending business remains a core strength. As of December 31, undisbursed loan commitments exceeded $680 million. This strong pipeline, coupled with active lending and sustained regional demand in the Northeast, provides a foundation for maintaining earnings dynamics in the new fiscal year.
