NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Catalyst Bancorp, Inc. (“Catalyst Bancorp” or the “Company”) is the holding company for Catalyst Bank (the “Bank”), formerly known as St. Landry Homestead Federal Savings Bank. The Bank has been in operation in the Acadiana region of south-central Louisiana since 1922 and offers commercial and retail banking products through six full-service locations.

The Company was incorporated by the Bank in February 2021 as part of the conversion of the Bank from the mutual to the stock form of organization (the “Conversion”). The Conversion was completed on October 12, 2021, at which time the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Bank and became the holding company for the Bank. Shares of the Company’s common stock were issued and sold in an offering to certain depositors of the Bank and others. The Company was not engaged in operations and had not issued any shares of stock prior to the completion of the Conversion.

As used in this report, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company” refer to Catalyst Bancorp, and the term the “Bank” refers to Catalyst Bank, the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In addition, unless the context otherwise requires, references to the operations of the Company include the operations of the Bank.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X and do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties and could reflect materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Methodologies the Company uses when applying critical accounting policies and developing critical estimates are included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

On March 23, 2022, the Board of Directors adopted the 2022 Stock Option Plan and the 2022 Recognition and Retention Plan and Trust Agreement (“2022 Recognition and Retention Plan”), which were approved by shareholders at our annual meeting on May 17, 2022. Under the terms of both plans, officers, employees and directors selected by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors are eligible to receive benefits. A total of 529,000 shares of common stock, or 10% of the shares sold in the conversion offering, have been reserved for the future issuance pursuant to the 2022 Stock Option Plan. Options to acquire shares of common stock will be awarded with an exercise price no less than the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. Under the terms of the 2022 Recognition and Retention Plan, the Company will contribute sufficient funds to the Recognition and Retention Plan Trust so that the Trust can purchase 211,600 shares of common stock, or 4.0% of the shares sold in the conversion offering. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the 2022 Recognition and Retention Plan commenced purchasing shares in the open market to the extent available.

On September 1, 2022, the Company granted a total of 295,340 awards under the 2022 Stock Option Plan and 119,336 awards under the 2022 Recognition and Retention Plan. In accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, the Company measures stock compensation expense based on the fair market value of the instrument as of

the grant date and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. All awards issued on September 1, 2022 were issued with a five year vesting period.

There were no other material changes from the significant accounting policies previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In preparing the financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature and include appropriate estimated provisions.

Certain amounts reported in prior periods may have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported equity or net income.

NOTE 2. COMPLETION OF STOCK OFFERING

The Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of stock in connection with the Bank’s conversion from the mutual to the stock form of organization on October 12, 2021. Information for periods prior to the completion of the Conversion are for the Bank only.

The Company issued a total of 5,290,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, for an aggregate of $52.9 million in total offering proceeds, including shares issued to the Company’s employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”). The Company made a loan to the ESOP in the amount of $4.2 million, which the ESOP used to purchase 423,200 shares. The Company’s common stock trades on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CLST”.

The costs of issuing the common stock were deferred and deducted from the sales proceeds of the IPO at December 31, 2021. Conversion costs totaled $2.1 million at December 31, 2021. The net proceeds of the IPO of $50.8 million are reflected in the Company’s shareholders’ equity.

NOTE 3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (ASC 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments introduce an impairment model that is based on current expected credit losses (“CECL”), rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including loans, held-to-maturity securities and certain off-balance sheet financial instruments. The CECL should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating the CECL. The allowance for credit losses for purchased financial assets with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination that are measured at amortized cost basis is determined in a similar manner to other financial assets measured at amortized cost basis; however, the initial estimate of expected credit loss would be recognized through an allowance for credit losses with an offset to the purchase price at acquisition. Only subsequent changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as a credit loss expense for these assets. The ASU also amends the current available-for-sale security impairment model for debt securities whereby credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. The amendments will be applied through a modified retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. On October 18, 2019, FASB approved an effective date delay applicable to smaller reporting companies and non-public business entities until January 2023. The Company has elected to delay implementation of the standard until January 2023. The Company has completed the implementation of a vendor provided software application and is currently conducting parallel testing of several CECL estimation methodologies. The Company expects the adoption of the ASU to increase the allowance for loan losses. The extent of the impact upon adoption is not known and will depend on the characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio and economic conditions on that date as well as forecasted conditions thereafter.

Table of Contents

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) and Vintage Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU respond to feedback received by the FASB during the post-implementation review of the amendments included in ASU 2016-13. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 eliminate the accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors in ASC 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors and enhance disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Stakeholders have observed that the additional designation of a loan modification as a TDR and the related accounting under current GAAP are unnecessarily complex and do not provide decision-useful information after the adoption of ASU 2016-13 since credit losses from TDRs are incorporated under the CECL model. Under the amendments in ASU 2022-02, an entity must apply the guidance under ASC 310-20 to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan rather than applying the guidance for TDRs. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2022-02 also require an entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC 326-20. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 are effective at the time of adoption of the amendments in ASU 2016-13. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of the amendment; however, we do not expect that the adoption of ASU 2022-02 will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
