The Company

1. The Company

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Seacoast Bancorp (the “Company”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Seacoast Bank (the “Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, FSB Service Corporation, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Corporate Structure

The Company is the federally-chartered holding company for the Bank (formerly named Federal Savings Bank). Effective July 16, 2019, pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization from Mutual Savings Bank to Mutual Holding Company and Stock Issuance Plan, the Bank reorganized into the mutual holding company structure, and the Company completed a concurrent stock offering.    

The Bank offers a full range of banking and wealth management services to its customers. The Bank focuses on four core services that center around customer needs. The core services include residential lending, commercial banking, personal banking and wealth management. The Bank offers a full range of commercial and consumer banking services through its network of five full-service branch locations.

Investment management services are offered through FSB Wealth Management. FSB Wealth Management is a division of First Seacoast Bank. The division currently consists of two financial advisors who are located in Dover, New Hampshire. FSB Wealth Management provides access to non-FDIC insured products that include retirement planning, portfolio management, investment and insurance strategies, business retirement plans and college planning to individuals throughout our primary market area. These investments and services are offered through a third-party registered broker-dealer and investment advisor. FSB Wealth Management receives fees from advisory services and commissions on individual investment and insurance products purchased by clients. The assets held for wealth management customers are not assets of the Bank and, accordingly, are not reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Assets under management totaled approximately $88.0 million and $58.4 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Bank is engaged principally in the business of attracting deposits from the public and investing those funds in various types of loans, including residential and commercial real estate loans, and a variety of commercial and consumer loans. The Bank also invests its deposits and borrowed funds in investment securities. Deposits at the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit and Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) for the maximum amount permitted by law.

Banking services, the Company’s only reportable operating segment, is managed as a single strategic unit.
