Loans
Total loans were $169.7 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $154.8 million for the first quarter ending March 31, 2023, an increase of $14.9 million, or 9.6%. When compared to December 31, 2022, total loans increased $13.1 million, or 8.4%. The Bank funded$35.4million in new loans/advances in the second quarter of 2023. The fundings were offset by $20.5million in payoffs, most of which were expected based on the contractual terms of the loans. The Bank's loan to deposit ratio increased to 63.5% as of June 30, 2023, from 57.2% as of March 31, 2023, and increased from 54.6% from a year ago.
The Bank's ALLL decreased 30 basis points to 1.38% from 1.68% due to a partial charge-off of $377 thousand during the quarter ended June 30, 2023. This amount was fully reserved as of the end of the previous quarter and the quarter ended June 30, 2022 thereby decreasing the allowance rate. The charge off was on the Bank's sole non-performing relationship.
Yield on total loans increased to 9.50% during the second quarter of 2023, compared to 9.38% from first quarter of 2023 and 6.45% in the second quarter a year ago.
Deposits
Total deposits equaled to $267.1 million at June 30, 2023, a decrease of $3.4 million, or -1.3% from the first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of $9.2 million, or -3.3% from December 31, 2022. Interest-bearing deposits decreased by $18.8 million, or -13.4% when compared to the first quarter of 2023 and decreased $10.2 million, or -7.7% when compared to December 31, 2022. Noninterest-bearing demand accounts increased $15.4 million, or 11.9% during the second quarter to $145.2 million as of June 30, 2023, and comprise 54.4% of total deposits. Noninterest-bearing demand accounts increased $956 thousand, or 0.7% when compared to December 31, 2022.
In response to the increases in the federal funds rates approved by the Federal Open Market Committee since March 2022, the Bank increased rates paid on interest-bearing deposits in late 2022 and then again in the first quarter of 2023. This resulted in an increase in the Bank's cost of funds to 1.48% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to 1.06% for the previous linked quarter and 0.32% for the same quarter last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Bank's cost of funds was 1.27% up 96 basis points from same period last year.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net interest income was $8.1 million, an increase of $3.2 million, or 63.9% from same period in 2022.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, non-interest income totaled $167 thousand, a decrease of $9 thousand, or -5.1%.

The increase over the first quarter of 2023 was driven primarily by an increase in salaries and employee benefits which is tied to and driven by the Bank's increase in net income and other performance indicators. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, non-interest expense increased $959 thousand to $4.4 million from June 30, 2022. This increase over like periods in 2022 is reflected in the change in the average assets per employee and efficiency ratios. The average assets per employee for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 remained flat at $9.3 million when compared to March 31, 2023 and decreased from $10.5 million as of June 30, 2022.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Bank's income tax expense equaled $1.1 million, an increase of $695 thousand, or 180.5% from the same period last year.

Common stock totaled $34.4 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $33.6 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $838 thousand, or 2.5% due primarily to the exercise of options on 77,000 shares of stock.
The book value of the Bank's common stock was $9.34 as of June 30, 2023, up from $9.11 as of March 31, 2023, and $8.03 at June 30, 2022. The book value of the common stock increased due to the additional income earned for the quarter plus the exercise of stock options at $10 per share offset by the increase in the unrealized loss on investment securities for the quarter. The investment portfolio consists entirely of government agency or government sponsored enterprise securities and therefore, the risk of incurring an actual loss is unmeasurably low. Although the Bank holds its investment securities ("securities") as available for sale, we do not have the intent to sell any securities at this time. These securities are pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank and provide the Bank with liquidity by allowing us to borrow approximately 95% of the fair market value of the portfolio. Also, the securities are amortizing which provides the bank with additional liquidity of approximately $800 thousand in monthly payments that are reinvested in higher yielding assets. As of June 30, 2023, the portfolio has an average life of 3.4 years.
