NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Critical Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of business - First Northwest Bancorp, a Washington corporation, became the holding company of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles on January 29, 2015, upon completion of the Bank's conversion from a mutual to stock form of organization (the "Conversion"). In connection with the Conversion, the Company issued an aggregate of 12,167,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $10.00 per share for gross proceeds of $121.7 million. An additional 933,360 shares of Company common stock and $400,000 in cash were contributed to the First Federal Community Foundation ("Foundation"), a charitable foundation that was established in connection with the Conversion, resulting in the issuance of a total of 13,100,360 shares. The Company received $117.6 million in net proceeds from the stock offering of which $58.4 million were contributed to the Bank upon Conversion.

Pursuant to the Bank's Plan of Conversion (the "Plan") adopted by its Board of Directors, and as approved by its members, the Company established an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP"). On December 18, 2015, the ESOP completed its open market purchases, with funds borrowed from the Company, of 8% of the common stock issued in the Conversion for a total of 1,048,029 shares.

First Northwest's business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in First Federal. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including the consolidated unaudited financial statements and related data, relates primarily to the Bank.

The Bank is a community-oriented financial institution providing commercial and consumer banking services to individuals and businesses in Western Washington State with offices in Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, King, and Whatcom counties. These services include deposit and lending transactions that are supplemented with borrowing and investing activities.

Basis of presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods.

In preparing the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to a determination of the allowance for loan losses ("ALLL"), fair value of financial instruments, and deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Northwest Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary, First Federal. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Subsequent Events - The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure and has included additional information where appropriate.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In August 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements in ASC 820. This guidance eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements: the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, an entity’s policy for the timing of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy and an entity’s valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance also adds new disclosure requirements for public entities: changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of instruments held at the end of the reporting period, and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop recurring and nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements, including how the weighted average is calculated. Furthermore, this guidance modifies certain requirements which will involve disclosing: transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, purchases and issuances of Level 3 assets and liabilities, and information about the measurement uncertainty of Level 3 fair value measurements as of the reporting date. This guidance is effective for public companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. This ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

In August 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, to provide guidance on implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. The ASU aligns the accounting for such costs with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. Specifically, the ASU amends ASC 350 to include in its scope implementation costs of such arrangements that are service contracts and clarifies that a customer should apply ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs should be capitalized. This ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments. The amendments represent clarification and improvements to the codification and correct unintended application. This standard was effective immediately upon issuance and its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Loss, which updates the guidance on recognition and measurement of credit losses for financial assets. The new requirements, known as the current expected credit loss model (CECL) will require entities to adopt an impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Upon adoption, the Company will change processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. In addition, the current accounting policy and procedures for other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities available for sale will be replaced with an allowance approach.

Additional updates were issued in ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 825), Financial Instruments. This ASU clarifies and improves guidance related to the previously issued standards on credit losses, hedging and recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The amendments provide entities with various measurement alternatives and policy elections related to accounting for credit losses and accrued interest receivable balances. Entities are also able to elect a practical expedient to separately disclose the total amount of accrued interest included in the amortized cost basis as a single balance to meet certain disclosure requirements. The amendments clarify that the estimated allowance for credit losses should include all expected recoveries of financial assets and trade receivables that were previously written off and expected to be written off. The amendments also allow entities to use projections of future interest rate environments when using a discounted cash flow method to measure expected credit losses on variable-rate financial instruments.

In addition, new updates were issued through ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This amendment allows entities to elect the fair value option on certain financial instruments. On adoption, an entity is allowed to irrevocably elect the fair value option on an instrument-by-instrument basis. This alternative is available for all instruments in the scope of Subtopic 326-20 except for existing held-to-maturity debt securities. If an entity elects the fair value option, the difference between the instrument’s fair value and carrying amount is recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 which defers the effective date for this guidance for smaller reporting companies from the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 to the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company plans to defer adoption of CECL until January 1, 2023.

The Company is evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13, ASU No. 2019-04 and ASU No. 2019-05, and will closely monitor developments and additional guidance to determine the potential impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact the implementation of these ASUs will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company's internal project management team continues to review models, work with our third-party vendor, and discuss changes to processes and procedures to ensure the Company is fully compliant with the amendments at the adoption date.

Other Pronouncements

In December 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 simplifies various aspects related to accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The standard also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. Early adoption is permitted.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)-Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction between accounting standards related to equity securities, equity method investments, and certain derivatives including accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. The ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments are effective for the Company as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company does not believe this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Reclassifications - Certain amounts in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current unaudited financial statement presentation with no effect on net income or shareholders' equity.

The Company may hold certain investment securities in an unrealized loss position that are not considered other than temporarily impaired ("OTTI"). At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were 33 and 62 investment securities in an unrealized loss position, respectively.

We believe that the unrealized losses on our investment securities relate principally to the general change in interest rates, market demand, and related volatility, rather than credit quality, that has occurred since the initial purchase, and such unrecognized losses or gains will continue to vary with general interest rate level and market fluctuations in the future. Certain investments in a loss position are guaranteed by government entities or government sponsored entities. The Company does not intend to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position and believes it is not likely it will be required to sell these investments prior to a market price recovery or maturity.

There were no OTTI losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company maintains a general allowance for loan losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, including management’s continuing analysis of the factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, actual loan loss experience, and current and anticipated economic conditions. The reserve is an estimate based upon factors and trends identified by management at the time the financial statements are prepared.

Impaired loans. A loan is considered impaired when First Federal has determined that it may be unable to collect payments of principal or interest when due under the contractual terms of the loan. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for all loans in the portfolio except smaller balance homogeneous loans and certain qualifying troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") loans.

Credit quality indicator. Federal regulations provide for the classification of lower quality loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities, as substandard, doubtful, or loss; risk ratings 6, 7, and 8 in our 8-point risk rating system, respectively. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and pay capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that First Federal will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values. Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

When First Federal classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it may establish a specific allowance to address the risk specifically or allow the loss to be addressed in the general allowance. General allowances represent loss allowances that have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities but that, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to certain problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as a loss, it is required to charge off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. Assets that do not currently expose First Federal to enough risk to warrant classification as substandard or doubtful but do possess identified weaknesses are designated as either watch or special mention assets; risk ratings 4 and 5 in our risk rating system, respectively. Loans not otherwise classified are considered pass graded loans and are rated 1-3 in our risk rating system.

Additionally, First Federal categorizes loans as performing or nonperforming based on payment activity. Loans that are more than 90 days past due and nonaccrual loans are considered nonperforming.

Troubled debt restructuring. A TDR is a loan to a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty that has been modified from its original terms and conditions in such a way that First Federal is granting the borrower a concession of some kind. First Federal has granted a variety of concessions to borrowers in the form of loan modifications. The modifications are generally related to the loan's interest rate, term and payment amount or a combination thereof.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 signed into law on March 27, 2020, ("CARES Act") provided guidance around the modification of loans as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which outlined, among other criteria, that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis to borrowers who were current as defined under the CARES Act prior to any relief, are not TDRs. This includes short-term (i.e., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers are considered current under the CARES Act and related regulatory guidance if they are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had approved COVID-19 pandemic related loan modifications for 297 loans aggregating to $128.4 million, or 12.9% of loans receivable. Loan modifications in accordance with the CARES Act and related regulatory guidance are still subject to an evaluation in regard to determining whether or not a loan is deemed to be impaired.

Note 5 - Federal Taxes on Income

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. These calculations are based on many complex factors including estimates of the timing of reversals of temporary differences, the interpretation of federal income tax laws, and a determination of the differences between the tax and the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates and interpretations used in determining the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

The effective tax rates were 18.9% and 18.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the statutory maximum federal tax rate for 2020 and 2019 of 21%, largely due to the nontaxable earnings on bank owned life insurance and tax-exempt interest income earned on certain investment securities and loans.

Note 6 - Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. In addition, nonvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the components used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Unallocated ESOP shares are not included as outstanding for either basic or diluted earnings per share calculations. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, there were 767,522 and 820,556 shares in the ESOP that remain unallocated, respectively.

Potential dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of EPS if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were 35,508 and zero restricted stock award anti-dilutive weighted-average shares for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively. There were 28,111 and zero restricted stock award anti-dilutive weighted-average shares for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively.

Note 7 - Employee Benefits

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In connection with the Conversion, the Company established an ESOP for eligible employees of the Company and the Bank. Employees of the Company and the Bank who have been credited with at least 1,000 hours of service during a 12-month period are eligible to participate in the ESOP.

Pursuant to the Plan, the ESOP purchased shares in the open market with funds borrowed from First Northwest. The Bank will make contributions to the ESOP in amounts necessary to amortize the ESOP loan payable to First Northwest over a period of 20 years, bearing estimated interest at 2.46%. The loan is secured by shares purchased with the loan proceeds and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from the Bank's discretionary contributions to the ESOP and earnings on the ESOP assets. An annual principal and interest payment of $835,000 was made by the ESOP during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the average daily market prices of the shares and the shares become outstanding for EPS computations. The compensation expense is accrued monthly throughout the year. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings; dividends on unallocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt and accrued interest.

Note 8 - Stock-based Compensation

In May 2020, the Company's shareholders approved the First Northwest Bancorp 2020 Equity Incentive Plan ("2020 EIP"), which provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock shares or restricted stock units, and performance share awards to eligible participants through May 2030. The cost of awards under the 2020 EIP generally is based on the fair value of the awards on their grant date. The maximum number of shares that may be utilized for awards under the 2020 EIP is 520,000. At June 30, 2020, there were 520,000 total shares available for grant under the 2020 EIP, all of which are available to be granted as restricted shares.

As a result of the approval of the 2020 EIP, the First Northwest Bancorp 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2015 EIP") was frozen and no additional awards will be made. At June 30, 2020, there were no shares available for grant under the 2015 EIP. At this date, there were 277,400 shares granted under the 2015 EIP that are expected to vest subject to the 2015 EIP plan provisions.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, 27,500 and 62,600 shares of restricted stock were awarded, respectively, and no stock options were granted. There were no shares of restricted stock awarded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Awarded shares of restricted stock vest ratably over five years from the date of grant provided the eligible participant remains in service to the Company. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the restricted stock awards based on the fair value of the shares at the grant date amortized over five years.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total compensation expense for the 2015 EIP was $250,000 and $270,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total compensation expense for the 2015 EIP was $555,000 and $553,000, respectively.

Included in the above compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, directors' compensation was $86,000 and $85,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, directors' compensation was $171,000 and $170,000, respectively.

As of June 30, 2020, there was $3.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested shares granted as restricted stock awards. The cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 3.42 years.

Note 9 - Fair Value Accounting and Measurement

Fair value is the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the Company’s principal market. The Company has established and documented its process for determining the fair values of its assets and liabilities, where applicable. Fair value is based on quoted market prices, when available, for identical or similar assets or liabilities. In the absence of quoted market prices, management determines the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities using valuation models or third-party pricing services, both of which rely on market-based parameters when available, such as interest rate yield curves, option volatilities and credit spreads, or unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs may be based on management’s judgment, assumptions, and estimates related to credit quality, liquidity, interest rates, and other relevant inputs.

Any changes to valuation methodologies are reviewed by management to ensure they are relevant and justified. Valuation methodologies are refined as more market-based data becomes available.

A three-level valuation hierarchy is used in determining fair value that is based on the transparency of the inputs used in the valuation process. The inputs used in determining fair value in each of the three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Either: (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; (ii) observable inputs, such as interest rates or yield curves; or (iii) inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs.

The hierarchy gives the highest ranking to Level 1 inputs and the lowest ranking to Level 3 inputs. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Qualitative disclosures of valuation techniques - Securities available for sale: where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified as Level 1. Level 1 instruments include highly liquid government bonds, securities issued by the U.S. Treasury, and exchange-traded equity securities.

If quoted prices are not available, management determines fair value using pricing models, quoted prices of similar securities, which are considered Level 2, or discounted cash flows. In certain cases, where there is limited activity in the market for an instrument, assumptions must be made to determine their fair value. Such instruments are classified as Level 3.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis - Assets are considered to be valued on a nonrecurring basis if the fair value measurement of the instrument does not necessarily result in a change in the amount recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Generally, nonrecurring valuation is the result of the application of other accounting pronouncements that require assets or liabilities to be assessed for impairment or recorded at the lower of cost or fair value.

Financial assets and liabilities other than investment securities are not traded in active markets. Estimated fair values require subjective judgments and are approximate. The estimates of fair value in the previous table are not necessarily representative of amounts that could be realized in actual market transactions, or of the underlying value of the Company. The methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as set forth below in accordance with ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, as amended by ASU 2016-01 requiring public entities to use the exit price notion effective January 1, 2018, are as follows:

Securities - Fair values for investment securities are primarily measured using information from a third-party pricing service. The pricing service uses pricing models based on market data. In the event that limited or less transparent information is provided by the third-party pricing service, fair value is estimated using secondary pricing services or non-binding third-party broker quotes.

Loans receivable, net - At June 30, 2020, the fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rate at which similar loans and leases would be made to borrowers with similar credit and for the same remaining maturities. Additionally, to be consistent with the requirements under FASB ASC Topic 820 for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the loans were valued at a price that represents the Company’s exit price or the price at which these instruments would be sold or transferred.

Mortgage servicing rights, net - The estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts when available. If no comparable contract is available, the estimated fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.

General

First Northwest is a bank holding company which primarily engages in the business activity of its subsidiary, First Federal. First Federal is a community-oriented financial institution serving Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, Whatcom, and King counties in Washington, through its Seattle lending center and ten full-service branches. Our business and operating strategy is focused on building sustainable earnings through hiring experienced bankers, geographic expansion, and diversifying our loan product mix, expanding our deposit product offerings that deliver value-added solutions, enhancing existing services and digital service delivery channels, and enhancing our infrastructure to support the changing needs and expectations of our customers.

We offer a wide range of products and services focused on the lending and depository needs of Western Washington. While we have a concentration of first lien one- to four-family mortgage loans, we continue to increase our origination and portfolio balances of commercial real estate and multi-family real estate. We have also increased our auto and consumer loans, through indirect and purchased auto loan programs, in order to diversify our asset portfolio and increase interest income. We continue to originate one- to four-family residential mortgage loans and regularly sell conforming loans into the secondary market to increase noninterest income and manage interest rate risk. We also retain one- to four-family first and second lien loans in our portfolio to generate interest income. We offer consumer and business deposit products, including transaction accounts, savings and money market accounts, and certificates of deposit for individuals, businesses, and nonprofit organizations. Deposits are our primary source of funds for lending and investing activities. We also borrow funds, typically from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, to provide additional funding and interest rate risk management tools.

Table of Contents

First Northwest is affected by prevailing economic conditions as well as government policies and regulations concerning, among other things, monetary and fiscal affairs, housing and financial institutions. Deposit flows are influenced by several factors, including interest rates paid on competing time deposits, alternative investment options available to our customers, account maturities, the number and quality of our deposit originators, digital delivery systems, marketing and promotion, and the overall level of personal income and savings. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for funds, our credit policies, the number and quality of our lenders and credit underwriters, digital delivery systems, and regional economic cycles.

Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on our loans and investments and interest expense paid on our deposits and borrowings. Changes in levels of interest rates and cash flows from existing assets and liabilities affect our net interest income. A secondary source of income is noninterest income, which includes revenue we receive from providing products and services, including service charges on deposit accounts, mortgage banking income, earnings from bank-owned life insurance, investment services income, and gains and losses from sales of securities.

An offset to net interest income is the provision for loan losses, which represents the periodic charge to operations which is required to adequately provide for losses inherent in our loan portfolio through our allowance for loan losses. As credit metrics improve, such as a loan's risk rating, property values increase, or recoveries of amounts previously charged off are received, a recapture of previously recognized provision for loan losses may be added to net income.

Noninterest expenses we incur in operating our business consist of salaries and employee benefit costs, occupancy and equipment expenses, federal deposit insurance premiums and regulatory assessments, data processing expenses, advertising and promotion expenses, marketing and promotion expenses, expenses related to real estate and personal property owned and other miscellaneous expenses.

COVID-19 Pandemic. In late 2019 and early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic manifested its impact on individuals, companies, and governmental entities around the world. It significantly impacted the global economy and created a challenging operating environment. As economic conditions deteriorated in mid-March 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we responded in several ways. Some of the key adjustments and developments include the following:

•	For our employees:

◦

Enhanced the ability of our employees to work remotely, adjusting branch operating hours and restricting lobby access in most cases.

◦

Provided significant support to employees by granting an increase in flexibility with paid leave, temporarily adjusting vacation policies, and increasing the cleaning of facilities to enable a safer environment for those employees that are not able to work from home.

◦

Increased compensation for hourly employees and providing additional compensation for exempt employees below the level of Senior Vice President.

•	For our customers and communities:

◦

Offering short-term loan payment and fee forbearance programs. Many borrowers requested and received temporary forbearance from obligations to assist them with the expected shortage in their near-term cash flow.

◦

Facilitating government programs like the Small Business Administration's Paycheck Protection Program ("SBA PPP") and Main Street Lending Program ("MSLP") established by the Federal Reserve.

◦

Investing in our communities. We plan to use a portion of the proceeds received from the SBA PPP loans and invest in the communities we serve.

•	For our shareholders and regulators:

	◦	Maintained our capital ratios at strong levels and materially increased our provision for loan losses to $2.8 million for the first half of 2020, compared to $669,000 for all of 2019.
	◦	Increasing on balance sheet liquidity, specifically Cash and Cash Equivalents increased by $849,000, a 1.7% increase over December 31, 2019. The investment portfolio, a secondary source of liquidity, increased by $48.7 million, or 16%, as well.

On March 23, 2020, the State of Washington announced the Stay Home, Stay Healthy order for all residents, resulting in the closing of businesses or a substantial reduction in business activity. Conditions have since improved in most of the counties within our footprint allowing many businesses to expand services or reopen under current guidelines. The sectors that continue to be most heavily impacted include hospitality; restaurant and food services; and lessors of commercial real estate to hospitality, restaurant, and retail establishments. At June 30, 2020, the Company’s exposure as a percent of the total loan portfolio to these industries was 5.1%, 0.2%, and 4.9%, respectively.

Table of Contents

The Company has worked with loan customers on loan deferral and forbearance plans. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had granted payment deferral plans on 297 loans totaling $128.4 million compared to 23 loans totaling $1.4 million as of March 31, 2020. These modifications were not classified as TDRs at June 30, 2020, in accordance with the guidance of the CARES Act and related regulatory guidance. The Company is continuing to work on forbearance plans with customers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. For additional information on COVID-19 deferrals, see Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in "Item 1, Financial Statements."

During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we provided assistance to many small businesses through the SBA's Paycheck Protection Program. This program provides small businesses with funds to pay up to eight weeks of payroll costs including benefits. A portion of the funds can also be used to pay interest on mortgages, rent, and utilities. On June 5, 2020, the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act ("PPPFA") was enacted. Main provisions of the PPPFA extended the repayment period from two to five years, extended the covered expense period from eight to 24 weeks, and lowered the percent of forgiveness amount required to be used for eligible payroll costs to 60%. The PPPFA also extends the repayment start date until after the SBA makes a decision on the application for loan forgiveness.

We processed approximately $30.6 million of loans for 440 customers through the SBA PPP program as of June 30, 2020. The average loan amount approved was approximately $69,000. Payments by borrowers on these loans begin six months after the note date, and interest, at 1%, will continue to accrue during the six-month deferment. Loans can be forgiven in whole or part (up to full principal and any accrued interest). We partnered with StreetShares to assist our borrowers with the loan forgiveness application process.

Loan processing fees paid to the Bank from the SBA of 5% on loans of $350,000 or less, 3% on loans of more than $350,000 but less than $2.0 million, and 1% for loans of $2.0 million or more are accounted for as loan origination fees. Net deferred fees are recognized over the life of the loan, or two years, as a yield adjustment on the loans. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had received $1.3 million in processing fees. If a loan is paid off or forgiven by the SBA prior to its maturity date, the remaining unamortized deferred fees will be recognized in interest income at that time. At such time that any of these loans are forgiven or repaid before the scheduled maturity, we expect an increase in interest income and the net interest margin during that period.

Critical Accounting Policies

There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies as disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019

Assets. Total assets increased to $1.48 billion at June 30, 2020 from $1.31 billion at December 31, 2019.

Total loans, excluding loans held for sale, increased $112.6 million to $996.4 million at June 30, 2020, from $883.8 million at December 31, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, one- to four-family residential loans increased $19.3 million, as we purchased a $28.0 million mortgage loan pool. Multi-family loans increased $7.2 million, as we continued to build this part of the loan portfolio. Commercial real estate loans increased by $11.5 million as we continue to build our lending presence in King and Whatcom Counties as well as in our legacy markets. Commercial business loans increased $57.9 million as we funded PPP loans and increased balances generated through the Northpointe Bank Mortgage Participation Program which provides interim financing to mortgage originators based on the contractual sale agreement of a mortgage loan during the first half of 2020. Auto and other consumer loans decreased $2.9 million as we scaled back funding in our specialty auto loan portfolio. Competition for quality commercial credits remains; however, impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic effect both the supply and demand for credit. An increase in refinance activity of one- to-four family residential loans also occurred during the period.

Construction and land loans increased $21.0, or 56.4%, to $58.2 million at June 30, 2020, from $37.2 million at December 31, 2019. The majority of our construction loans are geographically dispersed throughout the Puget Sound region and, as a result, these loans are susceptible to risks that may vary depending on the nature and location of the project. We manage our construction lending by utilizing a licensed third-party vendor to assist us in monitoring our construction projects and intend to begin utilizing internal staffing to monitor certain projects, which we expect will enhance fee income related to these loans. In March 2020, the vast majority of construction projects in Washington State were put on hold as a result of Governor Jay Inslee’s “Stay Home, Stay Safe” order. By June 30, 2020, most projects were able to restart under specific criteria. We continue to monitor the projects currently in our portfolio to determine the impact of COVID-19 on completion. As of this point in time, we have no reason to believe that any of the projects in process will not be completed.

We monitor real estate values and general economic conditions in our market areas, in addition to assessing the strength of our borrowers, in order to prudently underwrite construction loans. For the majority of 2019, we decreased our construction lending, which resulted in a decline in construction balances at the end of the year compared to 2018. In the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020, we increased production in construction lending and our commitments increased accordingly. We continually assess our lending strategies across all product lines and markets within which we do business in order to improve earnings while also prudently managing credit risk.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company originated $276.3 million of loans, of which $145.1 million, or 52.5%, were originated in the Puget Sound region, $115.7 million, or 41.9%, in the North Olympic Peninsula, $11.9 million, or 4.3%, in other areas throughout Washington State, and $3.7 million, or 1.3%, in Oregon. The Company purchased an additional $28.0 million in one- to four-family loans and $15.9 million in specialty auto loans, during the six months ended June 30, 2020. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to grow loans through wholesale channels in order to supplement our organic originations and increase net interest income.

Our allowance for loan losses increased $2.5 million, or 25.8%, to $12.1 million at June 30, 2020, from $9.6 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was due to a $2.8 million loan loss provision, offset by net charge-offs of $285,000 for the six- month period. The provision is largely attributed to qualitative factor adjustments made in response to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as to account for growth in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was 1.2% and 1.1%, respectively.

Nonperforming loans increased $1.6 million, or 86.9%, to $3.4 million at June 30, 2020, from $1.8 million at December 31, 2019, mainly attributable to an increase in nonperforming one- to four-family loans of $845,000, multi-family loans of $297,000, construction and land loans of $108,000, and commercial business loans of $308,000, partially offset by a decrease in commercial real estate loans of $74,000. Nonperforming loans to total loans increased to 0.3% at June 30, 2020, from 0.2% at December 31, 2019. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans decreased to 360.8% at June 30, 2020, from 536.1% at December 31, 2019.

At June 30, 2020, there were $2.5 million in restructured loans, of which $2.4 million were performing in accordance with their modified payment terms and returned to accrual status. Classified loans increased $154,000 to $5.1 million at June 30, 2020, from $5.0 million at December 31, 2019

Asset quality remains consistent with December 31, 2019. Net loan charge-offs are concentrated mainly in our auto loan portfolio. We recently adjusted our indirect auto loan product offerings and underwriting criteria to improve credit quality and reduce future charge-off activity. We continue to monitor the indirect auto loan program in order to prudently balance risk and return within the portfolio. We believe our allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb the known and inherent risks of loss in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2020. While the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and response from Federal and State government remains to be seen, we increased the qualitative factor related to the economy this quarter.

Investment securities increased $48.7 million, or 15.4%, to $364.3 million at June 30, 2020, from $315.6 million at December 31, 2019, due to the purchase and sale of securities, normal payments and prepayment activity, and an increase in the market value of the portfolio. Mortgage-backed securities represent the largest portion of our investment securities portfolio and totaled $110.1 million at June 30, 2020, or 30.2% of the investment securities portfolio, a decrease during the year of $58.4 million, or 34.7%, from $168.5 million at December 31, 2019. Other investment securities, including municipal bonds and other asset-backed securities, were $254.2 million at June 30, 2020, or 69.8% of the investment securities portfolio, an increase of $107.1 million from $147.1 million at December 31, 2019. The investment portfolio, including mortgage-backed securities, had an estimated projected average life of 6.7 years as of June 30, 2020, and 5.0 years as of December 31, 2019, and had an estimated average repricing term of 4.8 years as of June 30, 2020, and 3.7 years as of December 31, 2019, based on the interest rate environment at those times.

The investment portfolio was comprised of 58.9% in amortizing securities at June 30, 2020 and 81.8% at December 31, 2019. The projected average life of our securities may vary due to prepayment activity, which, particularly in the mortgage-backed securities portfolio, is impacted by prevailing mortgage interest rates. Management maintains a focus on enhancing the mix of earning assets by originating loans as a percentage of earning assets; however, we continue to purchase investment securities as a source of additional interest income. For additional information, see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Liabilities. Total liabilities increased $172.1 million to $1.30 billion at June 30, 2020, from $1.13 billion at December 31, 2019, primarily due to an increase in deposits of $168.7 million.

Deposit balances increased 16.8%, to $1.17 billion at June 30, 2020, from $1.00 billion at December 31, 2019. There was an $82.2 million increase in money market accounts, a $62.7 million increase in transaction accounts, and a $6.8 million increase in savings accounts during the year. The increase in deposits is in large part due to the Federal government's response to the pandemic including stimulus payments, additional unemployment benefits, and deferrals of Federal tax payment due dates. These actions, coupled with decreased spending by consumers and business, resulted in higher deposit balances. In addition to collecting customer deposits, we utilize brokered certificates of deposit ("brokered CDs") as an additional funding source in order to manage our cost of funds, reduce our reliance on public funds deposits, and allow flexibility when competing on retail rates. At June 30, 2020, we had $86.3 million in brokered CDs included in the $325.2 million balance of certificates of deposit.

Equity. Total shareholders' equity decreased $536,000 to $176.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was due to $5.5 million the in repurchases of shares of common stock, largely offset by an after-tax increase in other comprehensive income of $2.3 million due to the increased value of our available-for-sale securities portfolio, as well as year-to-date net income of $2.9 million.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

General. Net income decreased $103,000, or 4.9%, to $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to net income of $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease is mainly due to a larger loan loss provision in the current period compared to the same period one year ago, which was partially offset by a decrease in net noninterest expense. An increase in noninterest income driven by mortgage revenue offset an increase in noninterest expense due primarily to higher compensation expenses.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $437,000 to $10.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020., compared to $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 47 basis points to 3.79% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 4.26% for the same period in the prior year. This was due to a decrease in market interest rates and a decrease in the ratio of total loans to assets in the current period compared to one year ago from 67.4% to 69.9%.

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 44 basis points to 0.89% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 1.33% for the same period last year. The decrease was due in part to a reduction in the level and cost of borrowings given the prepayment of higher costing FHLB borrowings in the first quarter of 2020. As a result, our average cost of FHLB borrowings decreased to 1.13% in the first quarter of 2020 compared to 2.99% for the same period one year prior. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased by 17 basis points to 0.87% compared to 1.04% for the three months ended June 30, 2019, given decreasing market rates.

Due to the average yield on interest-earning assets decreasing at a faster pace than our interest-bearing liabilities, the net interest margin decreased 13 basis points to 3.10% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from 3.23% for the same period in 2019. For additional information, see Rate/Volume Analysis contained in Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.

Interest Income. Total interest income decreased $425,000, or 3.3%, to $12.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from $12.8 million for the comparable period in 2019. Interest and fees on loans receivable decreased $237,000, to $10.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from $10.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, due primarily to a decrease in the yield on loans and securities. Average loan yields decreased 34 basis points to 4.40% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 due to a decrease in market rates and an increase in the amount of lower yielding loans as a percentage of loans, including Northpointe and PPP loans.

Interest income on investment securities increased $347,000 to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, due to a $96.6 million increase in average balances partially offset by an 86 basis point decrease in average yield related to a decrease in the yield on variable rate securities. The change in average yield on investment securities does not include the benefit of nontaxable income from municipal bonds. Interest income on mortgage-backed and related securities for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $452,000, or 37.9%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, the result of a decrease of $43.3 million in the average balance and a 49 basis point decrease in the average yield in the 2020 period.

The following table compares average earning asset balances, associated yields, and resulting changes in interest income for the periods shown:

Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased $862,000, or 27.8%, to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, mainly due to an 80.6% decrease in interest paid on borrowings. Interest expense on deposits decreased slightly for the three months ended June 30, 2020, due to lower rates offsetting the impact of increased balances. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $141.2 million, or 17.7%, to $937.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from $795.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as we continued to target deposit growth in new and existing market areas as well as the industry-wide impact of surge deposits during the pandemic. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the average balance of savings accounts increased $9.7 million and the related weighted-average cost decreased 29 basis points compared to the same period in 2019. The average balance of certificates of deposit balances grew $90.5 million and the weighed-average cost decreased by 51 basis points, mainly as a result of the utilization of brokered CDs. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the average balance of money market accounts increased $34.0 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The average cost of deposits decreased by 17 basis points to 0.87% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from 1.04% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Borrowing costs decreased due to a decrease in balances and the average rate paid during the most recent quarter compared to the same period in 2019.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $1.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a $255,000 provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This was mainly due to an increase to the economic qualitative factor resulting from the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 and its potential impact on the loans in our portfolio.

Noninterest income increased $2.7 million, or 188.8%, to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the gain on sales of mortgage loans of $1.9 million, the gain on sale of investment securities of $604,000, and an increase in the cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance of $482,000. Loan and deposit fees decreased by $230,000 due to fewer non-sufficient funds fees as transaction volume reduced during the quarter as well as customers generally carrying higher balances in their deposit accounts.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $2.0 million or 24.3% during the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, mainly due to a 25.5% increase in compensation and benefits driven by additional staffing and higher commissions paid on loan production, which increased 656.4%. Occupancy and equipment increased 18.0% and advertising increased 64.6%.

Income tax expense of $464,000 was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $493,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019, generally due to a decrease in income before taxes of $132,000. For additional information, see Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

General. Net income decreased $1.4 million, or 33.5%, to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to net income of $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, due to an increase in provision for loan losses and noninterest expense partially offset by an increase in noninterest income.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $244,000 to $19.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $19.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was mainly the result of an increase in average earning assets of $60.7 million. The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 36 basis points to 3.87% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 4.23% for the same period in the prior year.

The net interest margin decreased 11 basis points to 3.11% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from 3.22% for the same period in 2019. A 36 basis point decrease in asset yields was offset by a 30 basis point decrease in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest rate spread and net interest margin.

The $244,000 increase in net interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, was the result of a $1.1 million decrease in interest expense driven by an improvement in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities which was partially offset by a decrease in interest income. The decrease in interest expense of borrowings of $1.4 million was the main contributor to the increase in net interest income.

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 0.99% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 1.29% for the same period last year, due primarily to decreases in borrowing volume of $905,000 and decreases attributable to rates of $486,000.

Interest Income. Total interest income decreased $960,000, or 3.8%, to $24.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $25.3 million for the comparable period in 2019, primarily due to a decrease in the average yields on interest-earning assets. Interest and fees on loans receivable decreased $493,000, to $20.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $20.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, in spite of an increase in the average balance of net loans receivable of $24.0 million compared to the prior year. Average loan yields decreased 24 basis points to 4.45% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Total interest income from securities decreased $344,000 to $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from $4.4 million for the same period in 2019. While the average balance of total securities increased $30.5 million, the average yield decreased 48 basis points. Interest income on investment securities increased $406,000, or 20.5% to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, due to an increase in the average balance of $63.2 million partially offset by a decrease in average yield of 71 basis points compared to the same period in 2019. The change in average yields on investment securities does not include the benefit of nontaxable income from municipal bonds. Interest income on mortgage-backed and related securities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $750,000, or 30.6%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, reflecting a $32.7 million decrease in the average balance and a decrease in yield of 41 basis points.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased $1.2 million, or 20.0%, to $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, due to a decrease in borrowing costs of $1.4 million, or 68.7%. Interest expense on deposit costs increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020, by $187,000 due to an increase in average interest-bearing balances. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $97.8 million, or 12.3%, to $893.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $795.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as we continued to target growth in deposits in new and existing market areas and surge deposits related to the pandemic.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, interest expense on cost of certificates of deposit increased due to an increase in average balance of $73.9 million partially offset by a decrease in the average rate paid of 33 basis points, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. During the same period, the average balances of savings, transaction, and money market accounts increased $11.0 million, $3.6 million and $9.3 million, respectively. The average cost of all deposit products decreased to 0.94% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from 1.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Borrowing costs decreased as higher rate long term advances were prepaid during the six months.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $2.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to the uncertainty in economic conditions created by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and growth in the loan portfolio, and was $590,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to charge-off activity in our indirect auto loan portfolio.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $3.7 million, or 140.4%, to $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, mainly due to an increase in gain on sale of mortgage loans of $2.2 million. Gain on sale of investments for the six months ended June 30, 2020, totaled $1.2 million compared to $57,000 recognized in the first six months of 2019. The cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance increased $667,000 in the first six months of 2020 due to a BOLI restructure that resulted in recognition of market gains as well as additional investment in BOLI.

The following table provides a detailed analysis of the changes in the components of noninterest income for the periods shown:

	Six Months Ended June 30,					Increase (Decrease)

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $3.6 million, or 22.3%, to $19.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $16.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily as a result of an increase in compensation and benefits as well as occupancy and equipment as we added staff to generate revenue. Compensation and benefits also increased due to an $829,000 increase in commissions paid on increased mortgage production as well as one-time pandemic related payments made to staff. We also incurred a one-time FHLB prepayment penalty of $210,000 as we retired long term debt to reduced interest expense.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the changes related to outstanding balances and changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

In the normal course of operations, First Federal engages in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in the financial statements. These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks. These transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Liquidity Management

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term and long-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, maturities and sales of securities, and borrowings from the FHLB. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are usually predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, calls of investment securities and borrowed funds, and prepayments on loans and investment securities are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition, which can cause those sources of funds to fluctuate.

Management regularly adjusts our investments in liquid assets based upon an assessment of expected loan demand, expected deposit flows, yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and the objectives of our interest-rate risk and investment policies.

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents followed by available for sale securities. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 2020, cash and cash equivalents totaled $49.6 million, and unpledged securities classified as available-for-sale with a market value of $250.7 million provided additional sources of liquidity. We pledged collateral to support borrowings from the FHLB of $112.4 million and have an established borrowing arrangement with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, for which available-for-sale securities with a market value of $46.2 million were pledged as of June 30, 2020.

At June 30, 2020, we had $1.7 million in loan commitments outstanding, $120.5 million in undisbursed loans and standby letters of credit, including $68.4 million in undisbursed construction loan commitments.

Table of Contents

Certificates of deposit due within one year as of June 30, 2020 totaled $240.1 million, or 73.8% of certificates of deposit with a weighted-average rate of 1.20%. We believe the large percentage of certificates of deposit that mature within one year reflects customers' hesitancy to invest their funds for longer periods as market interest rates have recently declined. If these maturing deposits are not renewed, however, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit, non-maturity deposits, and borrowings. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered as well as through sales and marketing efforts in the markets we serve. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on certificates of deposit. In addition, we believe that our branch network, and the general cash flows from our existing lending and investment activities, will provide us more than adequate long-term liquidity. For additional information, see the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and provides for its own liquidity to pay its operating expenses and other financial obligations. At June 30, 2020, the Company (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $12.4 million.

Capital Resources

At June 30, 2020, shareholders' equity totaled $176.3 million, or 11.9% of total assets. Our book value per share of common stock was $17.07 at June 30, 2020, compared to $16.48 at December 31, 2019.

At June 30, 2020, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and was considered "well capitalized" under FDIC regulatory capital guidelines.

The following table provides the capital requirements and actual results for First Federal at June 30, 2020.

Effect of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements and related financial data presented in this report have been prepared according to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, which require the measurement of financial and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation on our operations is reflected in increased operating costs and the effect that general inflation may have on both short-term and long-term interest rates. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than do general levels of inflation. Although inflation expectations do affect interest rates, interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There has not been any material change in the market risk disclosures contained in First Northwest Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

An evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer), Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), and other members of the Company's management team as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2020, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls.

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

The Company intends to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and to improve its controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that it may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning the Company's business. While the Company believes the present design of its disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve its goal, future events affecting its business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures. The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent every error or instance of fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns in controls or procedures can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is engaged in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, none of which are currently considered to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The disclosures below supplement the risk factors previously disclosed under Part I. Item 1A of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect our customers future results of operations and/or the market price of our stock.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to rapidly evolve, as do federal, state and local efforts to address it. Both the direct effects of the pandemic and the resulting United States governmental responses are of an unprecedented scope as it impacts both the health and the economy of our country and the world at large. No one can predict the extent or duration of the pandemic, or its effect on the markets that we serve. Further, the ongoing efforts and impact of the government in mitigating the health and the economic effects of the pandemic cannot currently be predicted, whether on our business or as to the economy as a whole. The pandemic has thus far resulted in significant volatility in international and United States markets, which could adversely affect the market price of our stock. To date, the pandemic has resulted in significant business disruption and volatility in the international and domestic markets, which has adversely affected the market price of our stock and stocks in general

The Company continues to manage through uncertainties and complexities created by the pandemic. As an essential business, our employees have been able to work safely in our branch locations and over 70% of our workforce has the ability to work from home. However, the economic downturn in local markets we serve could result in increased credit risk associated with the loan portfolio as customers are unable to repay loans and meet their obligations, as well as adversely impact our earnings. We believe our strong capital position will be important in managing through the unknown impact of the pandemic.

Item 5. Other Information

COVID-19 Legislation and Regulation.

General. Governments at the federal, state, and local levels continue to take steps to address the impact of the COVID-19 emergency. On March 27, 2020 the President signed into law the historic $2
trillion federal stimulus package known as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which included $350 billion in stimulus for small businesses under the so-called “Paycheck Protection Program,” along with direct stimulus payments (i.e., “economic impact payments” or “stimulus checks”) for many eligible Americans. The initial amounts available under the Paycheck Protection Program were quickly exhausted in less than two weeks, which prompted Congress to negotiate additional funding. On April 24, 2020, the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enforcement Act was signed into law to replenish funding to the Paycheck Protection Program and to provide other spending for hospitals and virus testing. Further, on July 3, 2020 the President extended the deadline for potential borrowers to apply for Paycheck Protection Program funds until August 8, 2020. The legislative and regulatory landscape surrounding COVID-19 is rapidly changing, and neither the Company nor the Bank can predict with certainty the impact it will have on our operations or business.
