REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees, Plan Administrator, and Plan Participants of the ESSA Bank & Trust
401(k) Plan
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the ESSA Bank & Trust 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022; the related statement of changes in net assets
available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2023; and the related notes to the financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm
registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan, in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such
procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Supplemental Information
The supplemental information in the accompanying schedule, Schedule H, Line 4i – Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2023, has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with
the audit of the Plan’s financial statements. The supplemental information is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but includes supplemental information required by the Department
of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our audit procedures included determining whether
the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental
information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information in the accompanying schedule, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with the Department of Labor’s Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information in the accompanying schedule is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial
statements as a whole.
We have served as the Plan’s auditor since 2005.

ESSA BANK & TRUST 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
The following brief description of the ESSA Bank & Trust 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) for employees of ESSA Bank & Trust (the “Bank”) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer
to the Plan Document for a more comprehensive description of the Plan’s provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering the employees of the Bank who have attained the age of 21 and have met the service requirements. The Plan’s initial service requirements are 166 hours in 60 days. If
the service requirements are not met in the first 60 days, the requirement reverts to 1,000 hours from hire date to anniversary date. If the service requirements are still not met after the first anniversary year, the requirement switches to 1,000
hours in a plan year (1/1 to 12/31). An employee is eligible to participate in the first day of the quarter (January, April, July, October) coincident with or next following the date that the eligibility requirements are met. The Plan includes a
401(k) before-tax and after-tax savings features, which permits participants to defer compensation under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”),
as amended. The Benefits Committee is responsible for oversight of the Plan. The Benefits Committee determines the appropriateness of the Plan’s investment offerings, and monitors investment performance.
Contributions
Employees may elect to contribute any amount up to the maximum percentage allowable, not to exceed the limits of Internal Revenue Code Sections 401(k), 402(g), 404, and 415. Participants who have attained age 50
before the end of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions. The participants may direct their accounts into several different investment options. Contributions are subject to certain limitations. The Bank will match 100 percent
of the participant’s annual elective deferrals that do not exceed 3 percent of the participant’s compensation, plus 50 percent of the amount of the participant’s annual elective deferrals that exceed 3 percent but that do not exceed 5 percent of
the participant’s compensation.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions, as well as allocations of Plan earnings based upon participant’s account balances at the beginning of the valuation period. Participant
accounts are charged with an allocation of administrative expenses that are paid by the Plan. Allocations are based on participant earnings, account balances, or specific participant transactions, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is
entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

ESSA BANK & TRUST 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (Continued)
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions and actual earnings thereon. Employer contributions are also immediately vested.
Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of service due to death, disability, or retirement, participants whose accounts do not exceed $1,000 may receive a lump-sum amount equal to the value of their account. Participants whose accounts
are between $1,000 and $5,000 may receive a lump-sum distribution or may have the balance of their account rolled over into an Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”). Participants whose vested account balance at the time of termination exceeds
$5,000 may receive a lump-sum distribution or may defer payments of benefits until April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year during which the participant reaches age 73. For termination of service for other reasons, a participant
may receive the value of the vested interest in his or her account as a lump sum distribution.
Notes Receivable from Participants
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their account balance. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s
account and bear interest ranging from 4.25 to 9.50 percent, which is commensurate with local prevailing rates. Principal and interest are paid ratably through monthly payroll deductions. Loans may be requested for hardship purposes only.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting principles followed by the Plan and the methods of applying these principles conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting.
A summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies applied in the presentation of the accompanying financial statements follows:
Use of Estimates
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The Plan’s investments are reported at fair value. The fair value of ESSA Bancorp, Inc. common
6
ESSA BANK & TRUST 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition (Continued)
stock fund is determined based on a quoted market price. The fair value of mutual funds is determined based on a quoted market price and the fair value of the collective investment trust is determined based on
information provided by the fund house.
Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The net appreciation (depreciation) in fair
value of investments includes investments purchased, sold, and held during the year.
Notes Receivable from Participants
Notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Delinquent participants’ loans are reclassified as distributions based upon the terms of the
Plan Document. No allowance for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Payment of Benefits
Benefit payments to participants are recorded upon distribution.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses of the Plan relating to investment management and recordkeeping fees are paid by the Plan. Fees relating to accounting and miscellaneous administrative expenses are paid by the Plan’s
sponsor.
NOTE 3 - PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Bank has the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.
NOTE 4 - TAX STATUS
The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on June 30, 2020, in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan Administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code.
Plan management is required to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by
the Internal Revenue Service. The Plan Administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2023, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of
a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The Plan Administrator believes it is no longer subject
to income tax examinations for years prior to 2020.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 5 -RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS
Certain Plan investments, such as collective investment trust and mutual funds are managed by Great-West Trust Company, LLC, the custodian of the Plan. Therefore, related transactions qualify as party-in-interest
transactions.
The Plan’s sponsor absorbs fees related to accounting and miscellaneous administrative expenses. Such costs amounted to $23,050 and $20,150 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Plan held 171,949 and 171,936 shares, respectively of ESSA Bancorp, Inc. common stock. Dividends received on these shares in 2023 totaled $103,095.
NOTE 6 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The following disclosures show the hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observations utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels of pricing
observations are as follows:
| Level I: |
Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.
|
| Level II: |
Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are
available but traded less frequently and items that are fair-valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.
|
| Level III: |
Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
|
This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data, when available.

NOTE 6 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)
The following table presents the assets reported on the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits at their fair value as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, by level within the fair value hierarchy. Financial assets
and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

In accordance with Subtopic 820-10, certain investments that were measured at net asset value per share (or its equivalent) have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts
presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the line items presented in the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
|
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Common Stock Fund
Valued at the closing price of ESSA Bancorp, Inc.’s common stock reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded plus the carrying value of the cash component of the fund, which
approximates fair value.

Collective Investment Trust:
The NAV, as provided by the trustee, is used as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. This practical expedient is not used when it is determined to be probable that the fund or accounts will
sell the investment for an amount different than the reported NAV.

NOTE 7 - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with
certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported
in the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
