Loans receivable, net increased $29.2 million to $1.31 billion for September 30, 2019, from $1.28 billion at June 30, 2019, and increased $363.7 million from $947.6 million at September 30, 2018. The quarter over linked quarter increase in total real estate loans was $9.0 million, including increases in multi-family of $19.2 million and one-to-four-family portfolio of $4.9 million, partially offset by decreases in construction and development of $13.4 million, commercial real estate of $1.3 million, and home equity of $253,000. Consumer loans increased $14.2 million, primarily due to increases of $12.6 million in indirect home improvement loans and $2.0 million in marine loans. Commercial business loans increased $6.9 million, primarily due to an increase in warehouse lending of $8.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in commercial and industrial loans of $1.2 million. This $1.2 million decrease primarily reflects the sale of four U.S. Department of Agriculture loans in the amount of $8.4 million, with a gain on sale of $122,000.
One-to-four-family loans originated through the home lending segment, which includes loans HFS, loans held for investment, fixed rate seconds, and loans brokered to other institutions, were $288.9 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $80.9 million, or 38.9%, compared to $208.0 million for the preceding quarter, and an increase of $95.9 million, or 49.7% from $193.0 million, for the comparable quarter one year ago. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, originations through the home lending segment were $638.7 million, an increase of $83.4 million, or 15.0%, compared to $555.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, the Company sold $247.3 million of one-to-four-family loans, compared to sales of $173.4 million during the previous quarter, and sales of $174.9 million during the same quarter one year ago. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company sold $551.6 million of one-to-four-family loans compared to sales of $490.6 million during the same period last year.

The allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) at September 30, 2019 increased to $12.8 million, or 0.96% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS, compared to $12.3 million, or 0.95% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS at June 30, 2019, and $12.0 million, or 1.3% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS, at September 30, 2018. Non-performing loans increased to $2.2 million at September 30, 2019, from $1.6 million at June 30, 2019, and was unchanged from $2.2 million at September 30, 2018. Substandard loans increased $898,000 to $7.4 million at September 30, 2019, compared to $6.5 million at June 30, 2019, and was unchanged from the prior year. The quarter over linked quarter increase was primarily due to an increase in non-performing one-to-four-family loans of $512,000. There were two other real estate owned (“OREO”) properties totaling $178,000 at September 30, 2019, and three OREO properties totaling $254,000 at June 30, 2019, compared to no OREO properties at September 30, 2018.
Included in the carrying value of gross loans are net discounts on loans purchased in the Anchor Acquisition. The remaining net discount on loans acquired in the Anchor Acquisition was $3.1 million and $3.7 million, on $223.7 million and $278.4 million of gross loans at September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively.
Total deposits increased to $1.39 billion at September 30, 2019, compared to $1.33 billion at June 30, 2019, and increased $442.1 million from $944.5 million at September 30, 2018. Relationship-based transactional deposits (noninterest-bearing checking, interest-bearing checking, and escrow accounts) increased $18.2 million from June 30, 2019, primarily due to a $16.3 million increase in interest-bearing checking accounts, and increased $172.6 million from September 30, 2018. Money market and savings accounts increased $8.2 million from June 30, 2019, and increased $54.3 million from September 30, 2018. Time deposits increased $26.0 million from June 30, 2019, and increased $215.2 million, from September 30, 2018. Year over year increases were due to deposits assumed in the Anchor Acquisition and organic deposit growth.
At September 30, 2019, non-retail CDs which include brokered CDs, online CDs, public deposits CDs, and public funds CDs increased $22.2 million to $141.1 million, compared to $118.9 million at June 30, 2019, mainly due to a $21.7 million increase in brokered deposits. The year over year increase in non-retail CDs of $16.7 million from $124.4 million at September 30, 2018, was driven by a $12.8 million increase in brokered deposits and $3.2 million in online CDs. Management remains focused on increasing our lower cost relationship-based deposits to fund long-term asset growth.

At September 30, 2019, borrowings decreased $6.3 million, or 7.6%, to $76.9 million, from $83.2 million at June 30, 2019, and decreased $9.7 million from $86.5 million at September 30, 2018. The quarter and year to date decreases in borrowings were primarily related to a reduction in FHLB advances due to the growth in deposits.
Total stockholders’ equity increased $4.8 million, to $194.3 million at September 30, 2019, from $189.4 million at June 30, 2019, and increased $61.1 million, from $133.1 million at September 30, 2018. The increase in stockholders’ equity from the second quarter was primarily due to net income of $7.1 million, partially offset by common stock repurchases of $2.3 million. The Company repurchased 46,562 shares of its common stock during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, at an average price of $48.88 per share. At September 30, 2019, 125,816 shares remained available for repurchase pursuant to our January 2019 Share Repurchase Plan. Book value per common share was $44.61 at September 30, 2019, compared to $43.18 at June 30, 2019, and $37.10 at September 30, 2018.
The Bank is well capitalized under the minimum capital requirements established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) with a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.5%, a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 11.6%, and a common equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital ratio of 13.6% at September 30, 2019.
The Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.2%, a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 11.3%, and a CET1 ratio of 13.3% at September 30, 2019.
Operating Results
Net interest income increased $4.9 million, to $17.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from $12.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was primarily a result of a $6.8 million increase in loans receivable interest income, including additional interest from loans acquired in the Anchor Acquisition, partially offset by a $2.4 million increase in deposit interest expense due to assumed deposits and continued organic growth combined with higher market interest rates. Net interest income increased $16.7 million, to $53.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, from $36.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, mostly attributable to a $23.7 million increase in interest income on loans receivable, partially offset by a $7.5 million increase in interest expense on deposits. The increases in interest income and interest expense were primarily impacted by the loans acquired and deposits assumed in the Anchor Acquisition.
The net interest margin (“NIM”) decreased one basis point to 4.54% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from 4.55% for the same period in the prior year, and decreased one basis point to 4.61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, from 4.62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The quarter over quarter NIM was positively impacted by incremental interest accretion on loans acquired in the Anchor Acquisition of 14 basis points. The year over year NIM was positively impacted from incremental interest accretion on loans acquired in the Anchor Acquisition of 17 basis points. The average cost of funds increased 31 basis points to 1.37% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from 1.06% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was predominantly due to growth in higher market rate deposits, primarily those assumed in the Anchor Acquisition along with overall deposit growth. The year over year average cost of funds increased 47 basis points to 1.36% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, from 0.89% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 reflecting the increase in market interest rates over the last year. Management remains focused on matching deposit/liability duration with the duration of loans/assets where appropriate.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the provision for loan losses was $573,000 and $2.2 million, compared to $450,000, and $1.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, net charge-offs totaled $147,000, compared to net recoveries of $24,000 for the same period last year. Net charge-offs totaled $1.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to net recoveries of $39,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in net charge-offs during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, was primarily due to the charge-off of a commercial line of credit of $1.2 million in the first quarter, and one commercial business relationship totaling $431,000 in the second quarter of 2019.
Noninterest income increased $1.9 million, to $6.7 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase primarily reflects a $903,000 increase in service charges and fee income, mainly driven by deposit accounts assumed in the Anchor Acquisition and deposit growth, and a $765,000 increase in gain on sale of loans primarily due to higher sales volume. Noninterest income increased $1.9 million, to $17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, from $15.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The year over year increase included increases in service charges and fee income of $3.1 million, other noninterest income of $455,000, and earnings on cash surrender value of BOLI of $393,000, partially offset by a decrease of $1.9 million in gain on sale of loans.
Noninterest expense increased $2.9 million, to $14.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from $11.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily as a result of the Anchor Acquisition and growth in our operations with increases of $1.1 million in operations, $826,000 in salaries and benefits, including an increase of $1.1 million in incentives and commissions for the loan production staff associated with strong loan production growth this quarter, $523,000 in data processing, and $360,000 in occupancy expense, partially offset by decreases in acquisition costs of $186,000 and FDIC insurance of $166,000 as a result of a small bank credit awarded by the FDIC recognized during the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The Bank has $174,000 in small bank credits on future assessments remaining at September 30, 2019, which may be recognized in future periods when allowed for by the FDIC upon insurance fund levels being met. Noninterest expense increased $11.6 million to $46.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, from $35.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase during the period was primarily as a result of the Anchor Acquisition and growth in our operations with increases of $3.0 million in salaries and benefits, including an increase of $255,000 in incentives and commissions, $2.9 million in operations, $1.8 million in data processing, $1.4 million in acquisition costs, and $1.3 million in occupancy expense. Acquisition costs were $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $443,000 for the same period last year, primarily due to the integration of the Anchor Bank core processing platform.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States (“GAAP”), this earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures: net income and diluted earnings per share, excluding net accretion/amortization on loans, CDs, and borrowings, acquisition costs, and acquisition-related CDI amortization, net of tax; and tangible book value per share. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends reflected in the current quarter’s results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. The after-tax impact of acquisition-related costs to net income which we have recorded in connection with the Anchor Acquisition provides meaningful supplemental information that management believes is useful to readers. Where applicable, the Company has also presented comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures.
Tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated by excluding intangible assets from stockholders’ equity. For this financial measure, the Company’s intangible assets are goodwill and core deposit intangible. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding. The Company believes that this measure is consistent with the capital treatment by the investment community, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios and presents this measure to facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's capital over time and in comparison to its competitors.
These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for total stockholders' equity or operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Reconciliation of net income, excluding net accretion/amortization on loans, CDs and borrowings, acquisition costs and acquisition-related CDI amortization, net of tax is presented below.
