Note1 - Basis of Presentation and Critical Accounting Policies

Organization and nature of business - First Northwest Bancorp, a Washington corporation ("First Northwest"), became the holding company of First Fed Bank ("First Fed" or the "Bank") on* January 29, 2015,upon completion of the Bank's conversion from a mutual to stock form of organization (the "Conversion"). First Northwest and the Bank are collectively referred to as the "Company." On August 5, 2022,*First Northwest's election to be treated as a financial holding company became effective, allowing the Company to engage in non-banking activities that are financial in nature or incidental to financial activities. First Northwest's business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in First Fed. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including the consolidated 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 primarily in western Washington State with offices in Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, King, Snohomish and Whatcom counties. These services include deposit and lending transactions that are supplemented with borrowing and investing activities. On* October 31, 2021,*the Bank converted from a State Savings Bank Charter to a State Commercial Bank Charter and was simultaneously renamed First Fed Bank from First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles.

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 donot include all 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 Form10-K for the year ended* December 31, 2025*. 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 thethree andsix months ended* June 30, 2026*, arenot 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 credit losses ("ACL"), fair value of financial instruments and derivatives, and deferred tax assets and liabilities.

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

Subsequent events- The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In* November 2024,the FASB issued ASU2024*-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic470*-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments*. ASU2024-04 clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. The amendments donot change the accounting for conversions that include the issuance of all equity securities upon conversion. ASU2024-04 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after* December 15, 2025,including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU didnot* have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently issued accounting pronouncementsnot yet adopted

In* November 2024,the FASB issued ASU2024*-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic220*-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*. ASU2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement in response to requests from investors for more information to better understand an entity's performance and potential future cash flows. The new standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. ASU2024-03 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after* December 15, 2026,including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU isnot* expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

10

In* September 2025,the FASB issued ASU2025*-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic350*-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software* which clarifies the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. The new guidance clarifies the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing costs and removes all references to project stages in ASC Subtopic350-40. ASU2025-06 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after* December 15, 2027,including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company doesnot* anticipate this ASU will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In* November 2025,the FASB issued ASU2025*-08, Financial instruments–* Credit Losses (Topic326): Purchased Loans*, which amends the guidance in ASC326 on the accounting for certain purchased loans. Under the ASU, entities must account for acquired loans (excluding credit cards) that meet certain criteria at acquisition ("purchased seasoned loans") by recognizing them at their purchase price plus an allowance for expected credit losses (the "gross-up approach"). ASU2025-08 also introduces an accounting policy election related to the subsequent measurement of expected credit losses for entities that use a method other than a discounted cash flow analysis to estimate credit losses on purchased seasoned loans. If this accounting policy is elected, entities can use the amortized cost basis of the asset to subsequently measure their credit loss allowance. ASU2025-08 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after* December 15, 2026,including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in an interim or annual reporting period in which financial statements havenot* yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU2025-08 on its consolidated financial statements.

Note2 - Securities

The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and estimated fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale at* June 30, 2026* are summarized as follows:

The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and estimated fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale at* December 31, 2025*, are summarized as follows:

11

There wereno securities classified as held-to-maturity at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*. There wasno allowance for credit losses on investment securities recorded at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, based on analysis performed by the Company.

Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities totaled $1.6 million and $1.5 million as of* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, respectively. Accrued interest receivable on securities is reported in accrued interest receivable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and is excluded from the calculation of the allowance for credit losses on investment securities.

The following shows the unrealized gross losses and fair value of the investment portfolio by length of time that individual securities in each category have been in a continuous loss position as of* June 30, 2026*:

The following shows the unrealized gross losses and fair value of the investment portfolio by length of time that individual securities in each category have been in a continuous loss position as of* December 31, 2025*:

Management believes that the unrealized losses on our investment securities relate principally to the general change in interest rates, market liquidity and demand, and market volatility 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. We donot believe the unrealized losses on our securities are related to a deterioration in credit quality. Certain investments in a loss position are guaranteed by government entities or government sponsored entities. The Company doesnot intend, and it is unlikely that we would be required, to sell these investments prior to a market price recovery or maturity. Based on the Company’s evaluation of these securities,no credit impairment was recorded at* June 30, 2026*, or* December 31, 2025*.

12

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities by contractual maturity are shown in the following tables at the dates indicated. Expected maturities of mortgage-backed securities* maydiffer from contractual maturities because borrowers may*have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties; therefore, these securities are shown separately.

Note3 - Loans Receivable

The Company has identifiedthree segments of its loan portfolio that reflect the structure of the lending function, the Company's strategic plan and the manner in which management monitors performance and credit quality. Thethree loan portfolio segments are: Real Estate Loans, Consumer Loans and Commercial Business Loans. These segments are further disaggregated into classes based on similar attributes and risk characteristics.

Loan amounts are presented at amortized cost which is comprised of the loan balance net of unearned loan fees in excess of unamortized costs and unamortized purchase premiums of $22.7 million as of* June 30, 2026* and $21.5 million as of* December 31, 2025*. The amortized cost reflected in total loans receivable doesnot include accrued interest receivable. Accrued interest receivable on loans was $5.6 million as of* June 30, 2026* and $5.0 million as of* December 31, 2025*, and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets and is excluded from the calculation of the allowance for credit losses on loans.

The amortized cost of loans receivable, net of the allowance for credit losses on loans ("ACLL"), consisted of the following at the dates indicated:

13

Nonaccrual Loans. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is90 days delinquent unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. All interest accrued butnot collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on either the cash basis or cost recovery method until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. For those loans placed on nonaccrual status due to payment delinquency, return to accrual status will generallynot occur until the borrower demonstrates repayment ability over a period ofnot less thansix months.

The following table presents the amortized cost of nonaccrual loans by class of loan at the dates indicated:

Interest income recognized on a cash basis on nonaccrual loans for thethree months ended* June 30, 2026and2025*, was $33,000 and $24,000, respectively. Interest income recognized on a cash basis on nonaccrual loans for thesix months ended* June 30, 2026and2025*, was $166,000 and $32,000, respectively.

Past due loans.** Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments havenot been received as of the date such payments were due. There wereno loans past due90 days or more and still accruing interest at June 30, 2026 and* December 31, 2025*.

The following tables present the amortized cost of past due loans (including both accruing and nonaccruing loans) by segment and class as of* June 30, 2026*.

14

The following tables present the amortized cost of past due loans (including both accruing and nonaccruing loans) by segment and class as of* December 31, 2025*.

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 ratings6, 7, and8 in our8-point risk rating system, respectively. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies arenot 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 isnot warranted.

When First Fed classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it* maychoose to individually evaluate the expected credit loss or maydetermine that the characteristics arenot* significantly different from those in pooled loan analysis. The Company evaluates individual loans for expected credit losses when those loans donot share similar risk characteristics with loans evaluated using a collective (pooled) basis. 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 donot currently expose First Fed to sufficient risk to warrant classification as substandard or doubtful but possess identified weaknesses are designated as either watch or special mention assets; risk ratings4 and5 in our risk rating system, respectively. Loansnot otherwise classified are considered pass graded loans and are rated1-3 in our risk rating system.

15

The following table presents the amortized cost of loans receivable by internally assigned risk grade and class of loans as of* June 30, 2026*, as well as gross charge-off activity for thesix months ended* June 30, 2026*. Term loans that are renewed or extended for periods longer than90 days are presented as a new origination in the year of most recent renewal or extension.

(1) Term loans that are renewed or extended for periods longer than90 days are presented as a new origination in the year of most recent renewal or extension.

17

Individually Evaluated Loans. The Company evaluates loans collectively for purposes of determining the ACLL in accordance with ASC326 by aggregating loans deemed to possess similar risk characteristics and individually evaluates loans that it believesno longer possess risk characteristics similar to other loans in the portfolio. These loans are typically identified from a substandard or worse internal risk grade, since the specific attributes and risks associated with such loans tend to become unique as the credit deteriorates. Such loans are typically nonperforming, modified loans made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, and/or are deemed collateral dependent, where the ultimate repayment of the loan is expected to come from the operation of or eventual sale of the collateral.

Loans that are deemed by management to possess unique risk characteristics are evaluated individually for purposes of determining an appropriate lifetime ACLL. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach, using the loan’s effective interest rate, for determining the ACL on individually evaluated loans, unless the loan is deemed collateral dependent. Collateral dependent loans are evaluated based on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated costs to sell. The Company* may*increase or decrease the ACLL for collateral dependent individually evaluated loans based on changes in the estimated expected fair value of the collateral. In cases where the loan is well-secured and the estimated value of the collateral exceeds the amortized cost of the loan,no ACLL is recorded. Changes in the ACLL for all other individually evaluated loans is based substantially on the Company’s evaluation of cash flows expected to be received from such loans.

As of* June 30, 2026*, $23.9 million of loans were individually evaluated with $173,000 of ACLL attributed to such loans. At* June 30, 2026*,two individually evaluated loans with recorded investments totaling $379,000 were evaluated using a discounted cash flow approach and the remaining loans totaling $23.5 million were evaluated based on the underlying value of the collateral. One $4.5 million multi-family loan was accruing interest at quarter end, while all other individually evaluated loans were on nonaccrual status at* June 30, 2026*.

As of* December 31, 2025,$25.9 million of loans were individually evaluated with $151,000 of ACLL attributed to such loans. At December 31, 2025,two individually evaluated loans with recorded investments totaling $303,000 were evaluated using a discounted cash flow approach and the remaining loans totaling $25.6 million were evaluated based on the underlying value of the collateral. One $4.5 million multi-family loan was accruing interest at year end, while all other individually evaluated loans were on nonaccrual status at December 31, 2025.*

Collateral Dependent Loans. Loans that have been classified as collateral dependent are loans where substantially all repayment of the loan is expected to come from the operation of or eventual liquidation of the collateral.

The following table summarizes individually evaluated collateral dependent loans by segment and collateral type as of* June 30, 2026*.

18

The following table summarizes individually evaluated collateral dependent loans by segment and collateral type as of* December 31, 2025*.

Modified Loans to Troubled Borrowers. Modified loans to troubled borrowers ("MLTB") refer to modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. A MLTB arises from a modification made to a loan in order to alleviate temporary difficulties in the borrower’s financial condition and/or constraints on the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, and to minimize potential losses to the Company. GAAP requires that certain types of modifications be reported, which consist of the following: principal forgiveness, interest rate reduction, other-than-insignificant payment delay, term extension, or any combination of the foregoing. The ACLL for MLTBs is measured on a collective basis, as with other loans in the loan portfolio, unless management determines that such loansno longer possess risk characteristics similar to others in the loan portfolio. In those instances, the ACLL for a MLTB is determined through individual evaluation.

There wereno new MLTB during thesix months ended* June 30, 2026*. There wasone new MLTB during thesix months ended* June 30, 2025.The Bank agreed to modify the rate, extend the interest-only payment period and extend the term for a commercial construction loan which had a recorded investment of $5.5 million at the time of modification. This commercial construction loan subsequently converted to an amortizing multi-family loan and was in compliance with the modified terms at June 30, 2026.*

Other Real Estate Owned ("OREO"). The Company held $1.6 million and $1.4 million at* June 30, 2026*, and* December 31, 2025*, respectively, of OREO secured by residential real estate properties included in "prepaid expenses and other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note4 - Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

The Company has identified segments of loans with similar risk characteristics for which it then appliesone oftwo loss methodologies. The Company uses a discounted cash flow ("DCF") methodology for most of its segments to calculate the ACLL. For certain segments with smaller portfolios or where data is prohibitive to running a DCF calculation, management has elected to use a Remaining Life methodology. The Company will evaluate individual loans for expected credit losses when those loans donot share similar risk characteristics with loans evaluated using a collective (pooled) basis. The allowance for individually evaluated loans is calculated using the collateral value method, which considers the likely source of repayment as the value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell, or another method such as the cash flow method, which considers the contractual principal and interest terms and estimated cash flows available from the borrower to satisfy the debt. When the cash flow method is used, cash flows are discounted back by the effective interest rate and compared to the total recorded investment. If the present value of cash flows is less than the total recorded investment, a reserve is calculated.

Determining the ACLL involves the use of significant management judgement and estimates, which are subject to change based on management’s ongoing assessment of the credit quality of the loan portfolio and changes in economic forecasts used in the Bank's Current Expected Credit Loss model. The reserve is an estimate based upon factors and trends at the time the financial statements are prepared.

19

The following tables detail activity in the allowance for credit losses on loans by class for the periods shown:

20

Allowance for Credit Losses on Unfunded Loan Commitments. The Company estimates expected credit losses on unfunded, off-balance sheet commitments over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk from a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The Company has determined thatno allowance is necessary for its home equity line of credit portfolio as it has the contractual ability to unconditionally cancel the available lines of credit. The allowance methodology is similar to the ACLL, but includes an additional estimate of the future utilization of the commitment as determined by historical commitment utilization. The credit risks associated with the unfunded commitments are consistent with the risks outlined for each loan class. This allowance is recognized in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and is adjusted as a provision, or recapture of provision, for credit losses on unfunded commitments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The allowance for unfunded commitments was $483,000 and $594,000 at* June 30, 2026*, and* December 31, 2025*, respectively. The related provision recapture was $112,000 and $49,000 for thesix months ended* June 30, 2026and June 30, 2025*, respectively.

Note5 - Deposits

Deposits and weighted-average interest rates at the dates indicated are as follows:

The aggregate amount of time deposits issued in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insured limit, currently*$250,000,* at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, was $175.5 million and $164.2 million, respectively.

Maturities of certificates at the dates indicated are as follows:

At* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, deposits included $121.3 million and $113.6 million, respectively, in public fund deposits. The Bank had an outstanding letter of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines ("FHLB") with a notional amount of $72.0 million at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, to collateralize public deposits. This letter of credit exceeds the minimum collateral requirements established by the Washington Public Deposit Protection Commission. Also included in deposits at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, were funds held by federally recognized tribes totaling $29.0 million and $31.3 million, respectively. Investment securities with a carrying value of $32.9 million and $40.7 million were pledged as collateral for these deposits at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, respectively. These investment securities exceed the minimum collateral requirements established by the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

21

Interest on deposits by type for the periods shown was as follows:

Note6 - Borrowings

First Fed is a member of the FHLB. As a member, First Fed has a committed line of credit of up to 25% of total assets, subject to the amount of FHLB stock ownership and certain collateral requirements.

First Fed maintains borrowing arrangements with the FHLB to borrow funds primarily under long-term, fixed-rate advance agreements. First Fed also has overnight borrowings through FHLB which renew daily until paid. First Fed periodically uses fixed-rate advances maturing in less thanone year as an alternative source of funds. Available borrowing capacity was $157.7 million and $204.4 million at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, respectively. All borrowings are secured by collateral consisting of single-family, home equity, commercial real estate, and multi-family loans receivable in the amounts of $832.2 million and $871.3 million at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, respectively. The Bank had outstanding letters of credit from the FHLB with notional amounts of $72.0 million to collateralize public deposits, $17.3 million to collateralize assumable rate conversion (ARC) loans and $772,000 to secure the Bellevue, Washington branch lease at both* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*.

First Fed also has an established borrowing arrangement with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco ("FRB") to utilize the discount window for short-term borrowing. Available borrowing capacity was $16.7 million and $17.3 million at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, respectively. Investment securities with a carrying value of $17.3 million and $18.0 million were pledged to the FRB at* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, respectively.

On* March 25, 2021,the Company completed a private placement of $40.0 million of 3.75% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due2031* (the "Notes") to certain qualified institutional buyers and institutional accredited investors. The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Notes were approximately $39.3 million after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. The Notes have been structured to qualify as Tier2 capital for the Company for regulatory capital purposes. The Company used the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes. In* March 2025,the Company redeemed $5.0 million of the Notes at a discount, resulting in a reduction to the outstanding balance and a $905,000 gain on extinguishment of debt recorded in noninterest income. Beginning in March 2026,the Notes bear interest at a variable rate that resets quarterly on the30th* day of* March,** June,** Septemberand Decemberbased on thethree*-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate in effect on the applicable reset date, plus 300 basis points. Accordingly, the interest rate on the Notes increased from 3.75% to 6.69% on* March 30, 2026,and increased to 6.73% on June 30, 2026.*

On* May 20, 2022,First Northwest began a borrowing arrangement with NexBank for a revolving line of credit. The agreement was modified in2025* and the new terms allow a maximum extension of credit of $15.0 million. Borrowings are secured by a blanket lien on First Northwest's personal property assets (with certain exclusions), including all the outstanding shares of First Fed, cash, loans receivable, and limited partnership investments. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at* June 30, 2026*, including fixed coverage, Tier1 leverage, and risk-based capital ratio minimum requirements and classified assets to Tier1 capital and Texas ratio maximum requirements. Available borrowing capacity was $1.5 million at both* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*. The line of credit matures on* November 16, 2026*.

In* October 2023,Pacific Coast Bankers Bank ("PCBB") extended a $50.0 million unsecured Fed Funds Borrowing Facility to the Bank. The Bank must maintain a minimum demand deposit account average balance of $250,000 with PCBB. Availability of funds arenot* guaranteed and facility usage is generally limited toten consecutive days. Available borrowing capacity was $50.0 million at both* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*. This credit facility is authorized for use through* December 31, 2027*.

22

The following table presents information regarding our borrowings as of* June 30, 2026*. The table includes both long- and short-term borrowings.

The amounts by year of maturity and weighted-average interest rate of FHLB long-term, fixed-rate advances at* June 30, 2026* are as follows:

Note7 - Income Tax

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.

Effective tax rates differ from the statutory maximum federal tax rate for2026 and2025 of 21%, largely due to the nontaxable earnings on BOLI and tax-exempt interest income earned on certain investment securities and loans. Included in the benefit from income tax for thefirst half of2026 were additional adjustments related to unrealized gains and penalties. Included in the benefit from income tax for thefirst half of2025 was an estimate for taxes and penalties on the early surrender of a BOLI contract.

The effective tax rate doesnot include a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset. Based on its evaluation of cumulative earnings, including other comprehensive income, available tax planning strategies, projected future earnings and other relevant evidence regarding realizability, management concluded that it is more likely thannot that the net deferred tax asset will be realized.

Note8 - Earnings (Loss) per Common Share

Thetwo-class method is used for computing basic and diluted earnings per share. Under thetwo-class method, EPS is determined for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participating rights in undistributed earnings. The Company has issued restricted shares under share-based compensation plans which qualify as participating securities.

23

The following table presents a reconciliation of the components used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods shown:

Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of EPS if their effect is anti-dilutive. At* June 30, 2026* and2025, antidilutive shares as calculated under the treasury stock method totaled 3,774 and 23,270, respectively.

Note9 - 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. Principal and interest payments of $835,000 were made by the ESOP during thesecond quarter of both2026 and2025.

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.

Compensation expense related to the ESOP for thethree months ended* June 30, 2026and2025*, was $132,000 and $122,000, respectively. Compensation expense related to the ESOP for thesix months ended* June 30, 2026and2025*, was $259,000 and $262,000, respectively.

24

Note11 - Fair Value Measurements

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 orthird-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.

Athree-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 thethree levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

Level1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level2 - 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.

Level3 - Unobservable inputs.

The hierarchy gives the highest ranking to Level1 inputs and the lowest ranking to Level3 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.

The Company used the following methods to measure fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis.

Securities available for sale: Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified as Level1. Level1 instruments include highly liquid government bonds, securities issued by the U.S. Treasury, and exchange-traded equity securities. If quoted prices arenot available, management determines fair value using pricing models, quoted prices of similar securities, which are considered Level2, 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 Level3.

Servicing rights on sold loan, at fair value: The fair value of servicing rights on sold loans is determined through a discounted cash flow analysis, which uses interest rates, prepayment speeds, discount rates, and delinquency rate assumptions as inputs. Servicing rights are classified as Level3 due to reliance on assumptions used in the valuation.

26

Interest rate swap derivative: The fair values of interest rate swap agreements are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level2). The Company’s securities derivatives are traded in an over-the-counter market where quoted market prices arenot always available. The Company also entered into pay-fixed and receive-floating interest rate swaps associated with certain fixed rate loans. The fair values of derivatives are determined using quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs. The inputs will vary based on the type of derivative, but could include interest rates, prices and indices to generate continuous yield or pricing curves, prepayment rates, and volatility factors to value the position. The majority of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including market transactions andthird-party pricing services. The fair values of all interest rate swaps are determined fromthird-party pricing services without adjustment.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis - Assets and liabilities are considered to be valued on a recurring basis if fair value is measured regularly (i.e., daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly). The following tables show the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates indicated:

The following tables provide a description of the valuation technique, unobservable input, and qualitative information about the unobservable inputs for the Company's assets and liabilities classified as Level3 and measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates indicated:

The following tables summarize the changes in Level3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, at the dates indicated:

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 doesnot 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.

Note13 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities

The Company is exposed to certain risk arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates.

Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company is exposed to changes in the fair value of certain of its fixed-rate assets due to changes in benchmark interest rates. The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in fair value on these instruments attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rate. Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges involve the payment of fixed-rate amounts to a counterparty in exchange for the Company receiving variable-rate payments over the life of the agreement without the exchange of the underlying notional amount.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in interest income.

31

The following amounts were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet related to cumulative basis adjustment for fair value hedges for the periods shown.

(1) These amounts include the amortized cost basis of a closed portfolio of AFS securities used to designate hedging relationships in which the hedged item is the stated amount of assets in the closed portfolio anticipated to be outstanding for the designated hedged period. At* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, the amortized cost basis of the closed portfolio used in this hedging relationship was $55.8 million and $56.1 million, respectively; the cumulative basis adjustments associated with this hedging relationship was $228,000 and $980,000, respectively; and the amount of the designated hedged items was $50.0 million for both periods.

(2) These amounts include the amortized cost basis of a closed portfolio of loans receivable used to designate hedging relationships in which the hedged item is the stated amount of assets in the closed portfolio anticipated to be outstanding for the designated hedged period. At* June 30, 2026* and* December 31, 2025*, the amortized cost basis of the closed portfolio used in this hedging relationship was $195.1 million and $213.3 million, respectively; the cumulative basis adjustments associated with this hedging relationship was $10,000 and $903,000, respectively; and the amount of the designated hedged items was $86.2 million and $100.0 million, respectively.

The following table summarizes the Company’s derivative instruments at the date indicated. The Company has master netting agreements with derivative dealers with which it does business, but reflects gross assets and liabilities as “Other assets” and “Other liabilities,” respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as follows:

The following table summarizes the effect of fair value accounting on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the periods shown:

Credit Risk-related Contingent Features

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to hedging instruments. The counterparties to all derivative transactions are major financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. However, this doesnot eliminate the Company’s exposure to credit risk with these institutions. This credit risk is limited to the unrealized gains in such contracts should any of these counterparties fail to perform as contracted.

The Company has interest rate swap agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain provisions where if the Company either defaults or fails to maintain its status as a well or adequately capitalized institution, then the Company could be required to terminate the contract or post additional collateral. At* June 30, 2026*, the Company had derivatives on securities in a net liability position related to these agreements. The Company has minimum collateral posting thresholds with its derivative counterparties and has posted cash of $3.5 million at* June 30, 2026*, to secure the related interest rate swap agreements as needed. In certain cases, the Company will have posted excess collateral compared to total exposure due to initial margin requirements or day-to-day rate volatility.

As of* June 30, 2026*, the Company was in compliance with all credit risk-related contingent features. Given the considerations described above, the Company considers the impact of the risk of counterparty default to be immaterial.

Note14 - Segment Reporting

First Fed is engaged in the business of attracting deposits and providing lending services. Substantially all income is derived from a diverse base of commercial, mortgage, and consumer lending activities and investments. The Company’s activities are considered to be asingle industry segment for financial reporting purposes. The chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is comprised of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer.

The accounting policies of the Bank are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note1 of the Company's Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended* December 31, 2025* ("2025 Form10-K"). The CODM assesses performance for the Bank and decides how to allocate resources based on net income that is reported on the income statement as consolidated net income. The measurement of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.

The CODM uses net income to evaluate income generated from the segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the Bank or into other parts of the entity, such as to pay dividends or a share repurchase plan. Net income is used to monitor budget versus actual results and assess the performance of the Bank.

The Company generates revenue from interest income, fee income and other noninterest income from investments and services. All operations are based in Washington State.No single customer accounts for more than10% of total revenue.

Note15 - Legal contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company* mayhave various legal claims and other similar contingent matters outstanding for which a loss maybe realized. For these claims, the Company establishes a liability for contingent losses when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. For claims determined to be reasonably possible butnot* probable of resulting in a loss, a liability willnot be reserved but the amount of loss or a range of possible losses* may*be disclosed if the amount can be reasonably estimated.
