Fueled by Strong Loan and Deposit Growth;Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.05 per Share

PORT ANGELES, Wash., July 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Northwest Bancorp (Nasdaq: FNWB) (Company), the holding company for First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles (Bank or "First Federal"), today reported net income of $2.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2020, reflecting strong loan and deposit growth and an addition to loan loss reserves related to the economic disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic. These results compare to net income of $873,000, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2020, and $2.1 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, net income was $2.9 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, from $4.3 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2019.

The Company also announced today that the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per common share outstanding, payable on August 28, 2020, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 14, 2020.

Our second quarter financial results demonstrate the strength of our franchise, with significant mortgage refinance activity and revenue generation from gains on loan sales. Additionally, Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans originated during the quarter had a meaningful impact on loan and deposit growth, which also bolstered second quarter results, stated Matthew P. Deines, President and CEO. The safety and well-being of our customers and employees remains our primary focus. As one of the first regions to experience COVID-19 infections, we were early adopters of COVID-19 pandemic safety protocols. We resumed lobby activities with modified hours at all branches on May 26, 2020, and we are encouraging the use of drive-up services, ITM/ATM machines, digital banking, and telephone banking, during extended hours.

The State of Washington has slowly been reopening under a Four Phase approach following the lifting of the Stay Home, Stay Healthy order, which expired on May 31, 2020. From March 23 to May 31, 2020, stay at home mandates resulted in the closing of businesses or a substantial reduction in business activity, and at June 30, 2020, there were still some business types that werent allowed to fully open yet under current phase guidelines. The sectors 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 Companys exposure as a percent of the total loan portfolio to these industries was 5.1%, 0.2%, and 4.9%, respectively.

Asset quality at quarter end remained strong, with very few delinquencies in the loan portfolio, as we continued to build our reserves in response to the pandemic and the economic impact of shutdowns on our customers and communities. We recorded a $1.5 million loan loss provision in response to the slowing economic activities which impacted businesses in our market and around the world, said Deines.

We are actively assisting customers and supporting the businesses in our communities, added Deines. Our participation in the Paycheck Protection Program offered through the Small Business Administration (SBA) helped service the needs of our customers and the community. We were able to assist approximately 440 of our customers receive $30.6 million in loans from the program. We also began serving small business in accessing the Federal Reserves Main Street Lending Program near the end of the quarter. The Federal Reserves Main Street Lending Program was announced on April 9, 2020. Under the plan, the Federal Reserve agrees to purchase 95% of each qualified loan that banks provide to small and mid-sized businesses.

We continue to focus our strategic efforts on growing the loan portfolio, while maintaining investment securities for liquidity and generating interest income," said Geri Bullard, EVP/Chief Financial Officer. At June 30, 2020, the market values for our bond portfolio increased significantly compared to March 31, 2020, as the bond market started to stabilize.

Total loans, excluding loans held for sale, increased $87.2 million to $986.4 million at June30, 2020, from $899.2 million at March31, 2020, and increased $112.4 million from $874.0 million a year ago. Our participation in the SBAs Paycheck Protection helped fuel loan production during the quarter, with $30.6 million in new PPP loans as of June 30, 2020," said Terry Anderson, EVP/Chief Credit Officer. "Additionally, we enhanced credit underwriting procedures during the quarter, as we anticipate a more difficult operating environment for the majority of businesses this year.

The Company originated $56.6 million in new residential mortgages during the quarter, and sold $61.1 million in residential mortgages, with an average gross margin on sale of mortgage loans of approximately 2.46%. This production compares to residential mortgage originations of $30.7 million in the preceding quarter with sales of $16.0 million. The continued high volume of mortgage activity will be dependent on the low rate environment. In the event mortgage rates begin to rise, this activity could slow down. In addition to new originations, the Company also purchased a $28.0 million pool of mortgage loans during the quarter.

We continue to monitor the sectors that have been most heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The table below presents selected information on loans to these industries as of June 30, 2020.

Total deposits increased $106.4 million, or 10.0%, to $1.17 billion at June30, 2020, compared to $1.06 billion at March31, 2020 and increased $237.1 million, or 25.4% when compared to $933.3 million a year ago. Savings accounts increased 10.8% compared to a year ago, to $175.7 million at June30, 2020, and represent 15.0% of total deposits; transaction accounts increased 30.1% compared to a year ago to $339.2 million at June30, 2020, and represent 29.0% of total deposits; money market accounts increased 31.6% compared to a year ago to $330.3 million, and represent 28.2% of total deposits, and certificates of deposit increased 26.3% compared to a year ago to $325.2 million at quarter-end, and represent 27.8% of total deposits.

Deposit balances increased across the board save for certificates, said Bullard. We continue to strategically use brokered certificates of deposit ("brokered CDs") as an additional funding source to lower overall funding costs. We had $86.3 million in brokered CDs included in our balance of certificates of deposit or 7.4% of total deposits, at June30, 2020, and $90.4 of brokered CDs or 8.5% of total deposits at March31, 2020. The weighted-average cost of brokered CDs was 1.12% for the quarter ending June 30, 2020, comparted to 1.71% for the previous quarter. We were able to reduce our total cost of funding over the quarter by reducing our retail deposit rates as well as the cost of borrowings. Total cost of funds for the three months ending June 30, 2020 was 0.77% compared to 0.97% for the three months ending March 31, 2020.

Total shareholders' equity was $176.3 million at June30, 2020, compared to $167.2 million three months earlier, and $176.4 million a year earlier. The $9 million quarter-over-quarter increase in equity was due an increase to other comprehensive income based on the improvement in the market value of the investment portfolio. The year-over-year decrease resulted from dividends paid and the repurchase of shares of common stock. Book value per common share increased to $17.07 at June30, 2020, compared to $16.02 at March31, 2020 and $16.15 at June 30, 2019.

Operating Results

Total interest income increased to $12.4 million for the second quarter of 2020, compared to $12.0 million in the previous quarter and decreased compared to $12.8 million in the second quarter of 2019. The year over year decrease is mainly due to a combination of a decrease in yield on investment securities of 57 basis points and a decrease in yield average loans receivable of 34 basis points. Total interest expense was $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2020, compared to $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2020, and $3.1 million in the second quarter a year ago. The decrease in interest expense is due to decreases in both the average balance and the cost of borrowings as well as a decrease in the cost of deposits.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased 7.5% during the quarter to $10.1 million, compared to $9.4 million for the preceding quarter and increased 4.5% compared to $9.7 million in the second quarter a year ago. For the first six months of 2020, net interest income before the provision for loan losses increased 1.3% to $19.5 million, compared to $19.3 million for the first six months of 2019. Reflecting the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent declining business environment, the Company recorded a $1.5 million provision for loan losses during the second quarter of 2020. This compares to a provision for loan losses of $1.3 million for the preceding quarter, and $255,000 for the second quarter of 2019. Year to date, the provision for loan losses was $2.8 million, compared to $590,000 for the same period one year earlier.

The net interest margin decreased one basis point to 3.10% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 3.11% for the first quarter of 2020 and was unchanged compared to for the second quarter in 2019. We were able to manage our net interest margin during this historically low rate environment by lowering our cost of funds which offset the decrease in asset yields, said Bullard. For the first six months of 2020, the net interest margin was 3.11% compared to 3.22% in the first six months of 2019 due to reduced yields on loans and investments and a higher level of cash in banks.

The yield on earning assets decreased 18 basis points to 3.79% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 3.97% for the first quarter of 2020 and decreased from 4.26% for the second quarter in 2019. The decrease was due to lower yields on the investment portfolio and average loans as well as higher levels of investments and invested cash as a percentage of interest-earning assets. The yield on the loan portfolio decreased to 4.40% for the second quarter 2020 from 4.52% for the first quarter 2020 and 4.74% for the second quarter in 2019. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 22 basis points to 0.89% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 1.11% for the first quarter of 2020 and decreased from 1.33% for the second quarter in 2019. We are actively working on changing the mix of our funding profile and managing the rates paid on deposits. We anticipate our cost of funds will continue to decline as retail deposit rates decrease, said Bullard.

Noninterest income increased 77.3% to $4.1 million for the second quarter 2020 from $2.3 million for the first quarter 2020 and increased 188.8% compared to $1.4 million for the second quarter in 2019. Second quarter of 2020 included a $2.0 million gain on sale of loans compared to a $383,000 gain on sale of loans in the preceding quarter and an $88,000 gain on sale of loans in the second quarter a year ago. Mortgage activity, specifically refinance activity, resulted in strong loan sale activity which boosted quarterly non -interest income. Loan and deposit service fees totaled $765,000 for the second quarter 2020, compared to $881,000 for the preceding quarter and $995,000 for the second quarter a year ago. Loan and deposit service fees were lower during the second quarter, largely due to accommodations we made to help customers affected by the halt on the economy, said Bullard. For the first six months of 2020, noninterest income increased 140.4% to $6.4 million, compared to $2.7 million in the first six months of 2019, reflecting increases in gain on sale of investment securities and gain on sale of loans.

Noninterest expense totaled $10.3 million for the second quarter of 2020, compared to $9.4 million for the preceding quarter and $8.3 million for the second quarter a year ago. The quarterly increase is attributable to higher compensation, including salaries, commissions and benefits, increased data processing fees and FDIC insurance premiums, partially offset by a decrease in prepayment fees. For the first six months of 2020, noninterest expense increased to $19.7 million, compared to $16.1 million in the first six months of 2019 due to production related commission payments, additional key hires, increased advertising spend and increases in operational expenses associated with growth.

Capital Ratios and Credit Quality

Common Equity Tier 1 and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratios at June 30, 2020 were 15.1% and 16.4%, respectively.

The percentage of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 674.2% at June30, 2020, from 622.4% at March31, 2020, and 753.8% at June30, 2019. Classified loans increased $528,000 during the current quarter to $5.1 million at June30, 2020, reflecting small increases in several categories. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.2% at June 30, 2020, compared to 1.2% at March31, 2020, and 1.1% at June 30, 2019.
