| Item 1. |
Security and Issuer
|
This amended and restated Schedule 13D relates to the common stock, $.01 par value (“Common Stock”), of Magyar Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”). The
address of the principal executive offices of the Company is 400 Somerset Street, New Brunswick, New Jersey 08901.
As a result of the transaction reported herein, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own more than 5% of the Common Stock. So, upon the filing of this
amendment, the Reporting Persons will cease to be reporting persons with regard to the Common Stock.
| Item 2. |
Identity and Background
|
| (a) |
This Schedule 13D is filed jointly by (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”): (1) PL Capital Advisors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and SEC registered investment adviser under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940 (“PL Capital Advisors”); (2) Richard J. Lashley, a managing member of PL Capital Advisors and Trustee of the Lashley Family 2012 Trust; (3) John W. Palmer, a managing member of PL Capital Advisors (PL Capital

Trust, an irrevocable grantor trust, as these parties are deemed to constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), by virtue of them coordinating their
activities with regard to the Company. The joint filing agreement of the Reporting Persons is attached as Exhibit 1 hereto.

|
| Item 3. |

|
In aggregate, the Reporting Persons have voting and dispositive power over 319,451 shares of Common Stock acquired at an aggregate cost of $1,540,333.
The PL Reporting Persons have voting and dispositive power over 268,557 shares of Common Stock acquired at an aggregate cost of $1,217,404 and held by the
Clients, using working capital.
Mr. Lashley has voting and dispositive power over 38,790 shares of Common Stock acquired at an aggregate cost of $278,231, using personal funds, and held by

his IRA.
Ms. Lashley has voting and dispositive power over 10,701 shares of Common Stock acquired at an aggregate cost of $33,643, using personal funds, and held by the

From time to time, the PL Reporting Persons may have purchased or held Common Stock on margin provided by Goldman

made by such entities to the Clients. Such loans, if any, generally bear interest at a rate based upon the federal funds rate plus a margin. Such
indebtedness, if any, may be refinanced with other banks or broker-dealers. As of the date of this filing no Clients have margin or other loans outstanding secured by Common Stock other than Financial Edge Strategic Fund, LP. As of the date of
this filing, Mr. Palmer’s IRA has no margin or other loans secured by Common Stock. As of the date of this filing, neither the Lashley Family 2011 Trust nor the Lashley Family 2012 Trust have margin or other loans secured by Common Stock.
| Item 4. |
Purpose of Transaction
|
This is the ninth amendment to the initial Schedule 13D. In the aggregate, the Reporting Persons own 319,451 shares of Common Stock, representing 4.7% of the Company’s outstanding
common stock, based upon the Company’s total outstanding shares as of December 22, 2022. The Reporting Persons acquired the Common Stock because they believed the Common Stock was undervalued at the time of purchase.
On January 31, 2023, the PL Reporting Persons sold 50,000 shares of Common Stock held by the Clients to Magyar Bancorp in a negotiated transaction for $12.92 per share, pursuant to
a Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated January 31, 2023, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3 to this filing.
The Reporting Persons intend to monitor the performance and corporate governance of the Company, as well as the actions of the Company’s management and board. As it deems
necessary, the Reporting Persons will assert their stockholder rights.
The Reporting Persons may make purchases of shares of Common Stock in the future and may also dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.
To the extent the actions described herein may be deemed to constitute a “control purpose” with respect to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
the regulations thereunder, the Reporting Persons have such a purpose. Except as noted in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in
paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Company
The percentages used in this Schedule 13D are calculated based upon the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, 6,742,934, reported as the number of
outstanding shares as of December 15, 2022, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on December 22, 2022.
Because Messrs. Palmer and Lashley are the Managing Members of PL Capital Advisors, the investment manager or adviser to the Clients, they are deemed to have voting and dispositive power over the shares of Common Stock
managed by PL Capital Advisors on behalf of the Clients. Because Mr. Lashley is the Trustee of the Lashley Family 2012 Trust, he is deemed
10 of 12 Pages
CUSIP No. 55977T208
to have voting and dispositive power over the shares of Common Stock held by the Lashley Family 2012 Trust. Because Ms. Lashley is the Trustee of the Lashley
Family 2011 Trust, she is deemed to have voting and dispositive power over the shares of Common Stock held by the Lashley Family 2011 Trust.
PL Capital Advisors made transactions in the Common Stock on behalf of the Clients within the past 60 days as noted below. Messrs. Palmer and Lashley did not
have any transactions in the Common Stock other than the transactions effected by PL Capital Advisors on behalf of the Clients. The Lashley Family 2011 Trust and the Lashley Family 2012 Trust did not have any transactions in the Common Stock within
the past 60 days.
