Note 9 – Change in Corporate Form -

On July 9, 2019, Eureka Homestead (the “Bank”) converted to a federal stock savings and loan association and established a stock holding company, Eureka Homestead Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), as parent of the Bank.

In connection with the conversion, the Bank issued all of its common stock to the Company, becoming the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company issued and sold shares of its capital stock pursuant to an independent valuation appraisal of the Bank and the Company. The stock was priced at $10.00 per share. In addition, the Bank’s board of directors adopted an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) which subscribed for 8% of the common stock sold in the offering. The Conversion was completed on July 9, 2019 and resulted in the issuance of 1,429,676 common shares by the Company. The cost of the Conversion and issuing the capital stock totaled $1.2 million and was deducted from the proceeds of the offering.

In accordance with OCC regulations, at the time of the Conversion, the Bank substantially restricted retained earnings by establishing a liquidation account. The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders who continue to maintain their accounts at the Bank after the Conversion. The liquidation account will be reduced annually to the extent that eligible holders have reduced their qualifying deposits. Subsequent increases will not restore an eligible account holder’s interest in the liquidation account. In the event of a complete liquidation by the Bank, and only in such event, each eligible account holder will be entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account in an amount proportionate to the adjusted qualifying account balances then held. The Bank may not pay dividends if those dividends would reduce equity capital below the required liquidation account amount.

The Conversion was accounted for as a change in corporate form with the historic basis of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and equity unchanged as a result.
