Kenneth J. Stephon , William Penn's Chairman , President and CEO , stated “ We are excited to have completed our second - step conversion and stock offering during the quarter . As a result of the share conversion , our tangible book value per share ( 1 ) measured $ 13.79 as of March 31 , 2021. Following the second step , we remain focused on prudent capital management , organic growth , and improving our financial performance . We intend to deploy the second step proceeds to assist us in achieving our strategic and financial growth goals . We continue to experience reduced loan demand as a result of the difficult operating environment related to the COVID - 19 pandemic . The low interest rate environment has made it challenging to effectively deploy the excess cash we hold on our balance sheet from two recent acquisitions and the second step offering . We believe the addition of Alan Turner as Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer will assist us with attaining our loan growth goals while maintaining consistent and conservative lending practices . In addition , we remain focused on maintaining a high- quality investment portfolio that provides a steady stream of cash flows both in the current and in rising interest rate environments .
