KRNY--
The amendment, signed by both Kearny Bank and Craig L. Montanaro, deletes Article XI of the SERP, which had previously frozen additional benefit accruals. This change will enable Montanaro to accrue benefits under the plan from July 1, 2025, onward. The rest of the plan's terms remain unchanged [1].
Kearny Financial operates in the financial services industry, with its primary subsidiary being Kearny Bank. The company has a market capitalization of $399.7 million as of June 19, 2025. Analysts have given KRNY a Buy rating with a price target of $8.50, indicating potential upside in the stock's performance [2].
However, the company faces significant challenges, including declining income and inconsistent cash flow, which have impacted its financial stability. Despite these challenges, the company's stock has shown some short-term momentum, but valuation concerns due to unprofitability overshadow the high dividend yield [2].
The recent amendment to the SERP is part of strategic adjustments in executive compensation. While the impact on Montanaro's retirement benefits is positive, the broader implications for the company's financial health remain to be seen.
