Current report
Net loans receivable decreased by $12.71 million, or 0.9%, to $1.45 billion at March 31, 2026 from $1.46 billion at September 30, 2025, primarily due to decreases in custom and owner/builder construction, land development, commercial construction and one- to four-family loan categories. These decreases were partially offset by increases in multi-family construction, multi-family, and speculative one-to four-family construction loan categories.
Current report
FHLB Stock: FHLB stock increased to $2.10 million at March 31, 2026 from $2.05 million at September 30, 2025. The increase was due to FHLB's required annual share assessment, which is based on total assets.
Current report
Net income increased by $1.73 million, or 12.7%, to $15.35 million for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from $13.62 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025. Net earnings per diluted common share increased by $0.23, or 13.5%, to $1.94 for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from $1.71 for the six months ended March 31, 2025. The increases in net income and net earnings per diluted common share were due to a $3.01 million increase in net interest income and a $187,000 increase in non-interest income. These increases were partially offset by a $830,000 increase in non-interest expense and a $216,000 increase in provision for credit losses.
Current report
Total interest and dividend income increased by $1.09 million, or 4.4%, to $25.96 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 from $24.87 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $38.10 million increase in average loan balances and a nine basis point improvement in loan yields, which together increased loan interset income by $897,000. The improvement on loan yields reflects continued asset repricing, partially offset by a $19.44 million decrease in the average balance of investment securities. Prepayment penalties, non-accrual interest and late fees totaled $38,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 compared to $201,000 in the prior year quarter which reduced the loan portfolio yield by one basis point. Interest income on deposits in banks and CD's increased $450,000 due to an $83.13 million increase in average balances, partially offset by a 73 basis point decline in yields reflecting lower short-term interest rates. These increases were partially offset by a $252,000 decrease in investment securities income driven by both a $19.48 million decrease in average balance and a 15 basis point decline in yields.
Current report
Total interest expense increased by $59,000, or 0.8%, to $7.71 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 from $7.65 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The increase was minimal despite a $78.04 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities, as the average cost of those liabilities declined 12 basis points to 2.35% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 from 2.47% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The lower funding costs reflect repricing of money market accounts and retail certificates of deposit in response to changes in market interest rates, partially offset by higher rates on NOW checking accounts. Average balances of retail CDs, NOW checking accounts and money market accounts increased, while brokered CD and savings account balances declined, reducing higher-cost wholesale funding and reflecting a continued shift toward core deposit funding.
Current report
As a result of changes above, the NIM increased two basis points to 3.81% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 from 3.79% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The improvement reflects the impact of Federal Reserve rate reductions, which drove a 12 basis point decline in funding costs, more than offsetting a six basis point decrease in asset yields as the effect of lower market rates outpaced the benefit from the increase in average loan balances and repricing of adjustable-rate loans
Current report
Net interest income increased by $3.01 million, or 8.8%, to $37.19 million for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from $34.18 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily due to a $101.58 million increase in average interest-earning assets and a three basis point increase in the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets to 5.47% for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from 5.44% for the six months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to the increase in average loan balances and a 19 basis point increase in loan yields. These increases were partially offset by a $76.75 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities, while a 15 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 2.40% for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from 2.55% for the six months ended March 31, 2025 largely offset the impact of the increased liability balances.
Current report
Total interest and dividend income increased $3.03 million, or 6.0%, to $53.15 million for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from $50.12 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $39.28 million increase in average loan balances and a 19 basis point improvement in loan yields to 6.04% for the six months ended March 31, 2026, which together increased loan interest income by $2.54 million. The improvement in loan yields reflects continued asset repricing of adjustable-rate loans, supported by $338,000 in prepayment penalties, non-accrual interest and late fees compared to $316,000 in the prior year period. Interest income on deposits in banks and CDs increased $1.03 million due to an $86.40 million increase in average balances, partially offset by a 75 basis point decline in yields to 3.85% for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from 4.60% for the six months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting lower short-term interest rates. These increases were partially offset by a $528,000 decrease in interest income earned on investment securities primarily due to a $24.1 million decrease in average balances.
Current report
Total interest expense increased by $16,000, or 0.1%, to $15.96 million for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from $15.94 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was limited despite a $76.75 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities, as the average cost of those liabilities declined 15 basis points to 2.40% for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from 2.55% for the six months ended March 31, 2025. The lower funding costs reflect repricing of money market accounts and retail certificates of deposit in response to Federal Reserve rate reductions during the period, partially offset by higher rates on NOW checking accounts. Average balances of retail CDs, NOW checking accounts and money market accounts increased, while brokered CD and savings account balances declined, reducing higher-cost wholesale funding and reflecting a continued shift toward core deposit funding.
Current report
Net interest margin expanded 12 basis points to 3.83% for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from 3.71% for the six months ended March 31, 2025. The improvement reflects a 15 basis point decline in funding costs driven by reductions in money market, certificate of deposit and brokered CD rates following three reductions in the target federal funds rate by the FOMC in the second half of calendar year 2025, to a range of 3.50% to 3.75% in December 2025. These benefits exceeded the three basis point increase in asset yields, which was supported by an increase in average loan balances and the upward repricing of adjustable-rate loans.
Current report
Provision for Credit Losses: A $523,000 provision for credit losses was recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, consisting of a $523,000 provision for credit losses on loans, a $3,000 recapture of credit losses on investment securities, and a $3,000 provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments. The provision for credit losses on loans was primarily due to a commercial real estate loan secured by a hotel in Oregon that is a purchased participation with another community bank. A $246,000 provision for credit losses was recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, consisting of a $237,000 provision for credit losses on loans, a $5,000 recapture of credit losses on investment securities and an $14,000 provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments.
Current report
Total non-interest income for the six months ended March 31, 2026 increased $187,000, or 3.5%, to $5.57 million from $5.38 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily due to a $149,000 increase in gain on sale of loans, a $63,000 increase in servicing income on loans sold and smaller increases in several other categories. These increases were partially offset by a $118,000 decrease in ATM and debit card interchange fees, a $35,000 decrease in service charges on deposits and smaller decreases in several other categories.
Current report
Total non-interest expense increased $830,000, or 3.7%, to $23.09 million for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from $22.26 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an $854,000 increase in salary and employee benefits, due to annual compensation increases and the filling of open lending positions, a $205,000 increase in state and local taxes expense, and a $165,000 increase in premises and equipment expense due to the opening of the University Place branch in January 2026. These increases were partially offset by a $136,000 decrease in professional fees expense and a $29,000 decrease in technology and communications expense.
Current report
The efficiency ratio improved to 53.99% for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from 56.26% for the six months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting growth in net interest income that outpaced the increase in non-interest expense.
Current report
The increase was primarily due to higher pre-tax income. The Company's effective tax rate was 20.0% for the six months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 20.1% for the six months ended March 31, 2025.

Previous report
Net loans receivable decreased by $4.76 million, or 0.3%, to $1.459 billion at December 31, 2025 from $1.464 billion at September 30, 2025, primarily due to decreases in construction and land loans categories. These decreases were partially offset by increases in one- to four- family, multi-family, home equity and second mortgage loan categories.

The increase was primarily due to higher yields earned on loans receivable, and growth in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits in banks and CDs. The average yield on loans increased 28 basis points, reflecting continued asset repricing, while the average balance of loans increased $40.42 million. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits in banks and CDs increased $89.62 million, although the yield on those balances declined 77 basis points due to changes in short-term interest rates, partially offsetting the benefit of higher balances. These increases were partially offset by a $28.67 million decrease in the average balance of investment securities.
Previous report
The average balance of total interest-earning assets increased by $101.38 million, or 5.5%, to $1.95 billion for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from $1.85 billion for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. Prepayment penalties, non-accrual interest and late fees totaled $282,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 compared to $123,000 in the prior year quarter and contributed to a 6 basis point increase in the loan portfolio yield. The overall yield on interest-earning assets increased by 10 basis points to 5.52% for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from 5.42% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024.
Previous report
Total interest expense decreased by $41,000, or 0.5%, to $8.25 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from $8.29 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The decrease occurred despite a $75.50 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities, as the average cost of those liabilities declined 16 basis points to 2.46% for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from 2.62% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The lower funding costs reflects both repricing of deposit products and a shift in funding mix, including growth in lower-costing accounts and a reductions in higher -cost money market and CD accounts. Average balances of CDs and NOW checking accounts increased, partially offset by decreases in money market and savings account balances.
Previous report
As a result of changes above, the net interest margin ("NIM") increased to 3.85% for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from 3.64% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024.

Previous wording
Our net interest income, net interest margin, and net interest spread are primarily influenced by changes in market interest rates, the shape of the yield curve, and the interest rates we earn on interest-earning assets or pay on interest-bearing liabilities. These components of net interest income are also affected by the volume and composition of our interest-earning assets, interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing liabilities, and shareholders’ equity. During the first fiscal quarter of 2026 (fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025), interest rate trends were influenced by monetary policy actions taken by the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve. In the second half of the calendar year 2025, the FOMC reduced the target range for the federal funds rate three times, most recently to a range of 3.50% to 3.75% at December 31, 2025. Despite the decline in market rates, asset yields increased due to the origination of new loans at higher rates and upward repricing of adjustable-rate loans. At the same time, funding costs declined at a slower pace, which moderated the overall benefit to our net interest margin.
Current wording
Our net interest income, net interest margin, ("NIM"), and net interest spread are primarily influenced by changes in market interest rates, the shape of the yield curve, and the interest rates we earn on interest-earning assets or pay on interest-bearing liabilities. These components of net interest income are also affected by the volume and composition of our interest-earning assets, interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing liabilities, and shareholders’ equity. During the six months ended March 31, 2026, interest rate trends were influenced by monetary policy actions taken by the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve. In the second half of calendar year 2025, the FOMC reduced the target range for the federal funds rate three times, most recently to a range of 3.50% to 3.75% in December 2025. Despite the decline in market rates, net interest income improved for both the three and six months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior year periods, driven by growth in interest-earning assets and a decline in funding costs that outpaced the reduction in asset yields. Our NIM improved modestly for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and more meaningfully for the six months then ended, reflecting the benefit of lower deposit and borrowing costs and continued growth in the average balance of our loan portfolio.
Previous wording
The provision for (recapture of) credit losses on loans is dependent on changes in the loan portfolio and management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan portfolio as well as prevailing economic and market conditions. The ACL on loans reflects the amount that management has determined is adequate to cover probable expected credit losses in the loan portfolio. As the loan portfolio increases, or due to an increase in probable expected losses inherent in the loan portfolio, the ACL may increase, resulting in a decrease to net interest income after the provision. Improvement in loan risk ratings, increase in property values, or receipts of recoveries of amounts previously charged off may partially or fully offset any required increases to the ACL on loans due to loan growth or an increase in the probable expected credit losses. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $16,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to a provision for credit losses on loans of $52,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2024.

Previous wording
Net income is also impacted by levels of non-interest income and non-interest expense. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, non-interest income consisted primarily of service charges on deposit accounts, gain on sales of loans, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, BOLI net earnings, servicing income on loans sold, escrow fees and other operating income. Non-interest income may also be affected by net recoveries on investment securities and the reversal of previously recognized OTTI losses, if applicable. Additionally, it is reduced by valuation allowances on loan servicing rights and increased by recoveries of such allowances, when recognized. Non-interest expense for the same periods primarily included salaries and employee benefits, premises and equipment costs, advertising, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, postage and courier expenses, state and local taxes, professional fees, FDIC insurance premiums, loan administration and foreclosure-related expenses, technology and communications expenses, deposit operation expenses, amortization of CDI, and other general operating expenses. In certain periods, non-interest expense may be offset by gains on the sale of premises and equipment or OREO. Both non-interest income and non-interest expense are influenced by the Company’s overall growth and the expansion of its loan and deposit account base.

General: Total assets decreased by $6.65 million, or 0.3%, to $2.006 billion at December 31, 2025 from $2.013 billion at September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in investment securities and decreases in net loans receivable. These decreases were partially offset by increases in cash and cash equivalents.
Current wording
General: Total assets increased by $33.61 million, or 1.7%, to $2.05 billion at March 31, 2026 from $2.01 billion at September 30, 2025.

Previous wording
Total deposits decreased by $12.15 million, or 0.7%, to $1.704 billion at December 31, 2025 from $1.717 billion at September 30, 2025, primarily due to decreases in non-interest deposit account balances, certificates of deposit "CDs" account balances, and savings account balances. These decreases were partially offset by increases in NOW checking and money market account balances.
Current wording
Total deposits increased by $26.58 million, or 1.5%, to $1.74 billion at March 31, 2026 from $1.72 billion at September 30, 2025, primarily due to increases in NOW checking and money market account balances.
