OSWEGO — Net income available to common shareholders at Pathfinder Bancorp (NASDAQ: PBHC), the holding company for Pathfinder Bank, was $670,000 in the third quarter, down from $874,000 in the same period a year ago.
The drop resulted mainly from a reduction of $451,000 in net gains on the sales and redemptions of investment securities, according to Pathfinder. Earnings per share for the period totaled 22 cents, compared with 11 cents a year earlier.
Earnings per share were lower last year because of the company’s exit from the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program, according to Pathfinder.

“This growth is the result of strategic focus and resource allocation over the past three years. We believe that quality, diversified loan growth is the key determinant to sustainable earnings growth.”
Oswego–based Pathfinder has total assets of $479.4 million and eight branches in Oswego and Onondaga counties.
