Carver Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014. The Company has not finalized its assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting and is reviewing its accounting practices with respect to its pension plan and leases. The Company’s management team and its finance and accounting personnel have been working diligently to complete this review; however, the Company is not able to timely complete the preparation of its financial statements and related disclosures to be included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company expects to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014 on or before July 15, 2014.
