________________________

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of liabilities to fund those assets. Interest earned includes actual interest earned on segment assets and, if the segment has excess liabilities, interest credits for providing funding to the other segment. The cost of liabilities includes interest expense on segment liabilities and, if the segment does not have enough liabilities to fund its assets, a funding charge based on the cost of assigned liabilities to fund segment assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Noninterest income includes activity from certain residential mortgage loans that were initially originated for sale and measured at fair value and subsequently transferred to loans held for investment. Gains and losses from changes in fair value for these loans are reported in earnings as a component of noninterest income. For the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 , the Company recorded a net increase in fair value of $65,000 and $534,000, respectively, as compared to a net decrease in fair value of $396,000 and a net increase in fair value of $52,000 for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 , respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 , there were $13.2 million and $12.7 million, respectively, in residential mortgage loans recorded at fair value as they were previously transferred from loans held for sale to loans held for investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Noninterest expense includes allocated overhead expense from general corporate activities. Allocation is determined based on a combination of segment assets and FTEs. For the three months and years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 , the Home Lending segment included allocated overhead expenses of $1.9 million and $7.4 million, compared to $1.8 million and $6.6 million for the same periods in 2024, respectively.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, the Company sold $180.1 million of one-to-four-family loans compared to $156.4 million during the previous quarter and $138.9 million during the same quarter one year ago. The increase in the volume of loans sold during the current quarter compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to decreases in market rates between periods. Gross margins on home loan sales decreased to 3.08% for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, compared to 3.14% in both the previous quarter and in the same quarter one year ago. Gross margins are defined as the margin on loans sold (cash sales) without the impact of deferred costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Primarily noninterest-bearing accounts based on applicable state law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Comprised of FHLB advances and Federal Reserve Bank borrowings.

At December 31, 2025, the Bank had uninsured deposits of approximately $718.1 million, compared to approximately $694.4 million in September 30, 2025, and approximately $652.7 million at December 31, 2024. The uninsured amounts are estimated based on the methodologies and assumptions used for the Bank's regulatory reporting requirements.

In the table above, the linked quarter increase in stockholders' equity at December 31, 2025, compared to September 30, 2025, was primarily due to net income of $8.4 million and unrealized gain in fair value on securities available for sale of $1.6 million, net of tax, partially offset by dividends paid of $2.1 million. Gains and losses in fair value reflect changes in market interest rates during the period.

The Bank is considered "well capitalized" under the minimum capital requirements established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and the Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. At December 31, 2025, capital ratios presented for the Bank and the Company were as follows:

---

The increase in nonaccrual loans year-over-year was partly driven by one commercial construction relationship, which remains in active development. Disbursements on this relationship, net of partial charge-offs of $2.3 million, contributed to a $5.1 million net increase in the nonaccrual balance of these loans compared to the same period last year. These funds were provided for the completion of the projects in order to improve the probability of protecting the collateral value. Increases in consumer loans and mortgage loan delinquencies also contributed to the rise in nonaccrual loans between the periods.

**Operating Results**

Net interest income increased $2.5 million to $33.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, from $31.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily as a result of an increase in interest income on loans receivable, including fees, partially offset by an increase in interest expense. Total interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2025, increased $3.8 million compared to the same period last year, primarily due to an increase of $3.2 million in interest income on loans receivable, including fees. This growth was primarily attributable to new loan growth and variable rate loans repricing higher following increases in market interest rates. Total interest expense increased $1.3 million to $17.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period last year, primarily as a result of growth in interest bearing deposits.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, net interest income increased $7.3 million to $130.4 million, from $123.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, as a $12.4 million increase in interest income was partially offset by a $5.1 million increase in interest expense.

NIM increased four basis points to 4.35% for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to 4.31% for the same period in the prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2025, NIM increased three basis points to 4.33% from 4.30% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increases in NIM for the three months ended and year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024, were due to higher net interest income as a result of an increase in average interest-earning assets, particularly due to growth in commercial and speculative construction and development loans.

The average total cost of funds, including noninterest-bearing checking, was 2.38% for both the fourth quarter of 2025, and the same quarter of 2024. The unchanged rate reflects a shift in deposit mix, with a higher relative mix of CDs, offset by favorable CD repricing throughout 2025. For the full year, the average cost of funds decreased four basis points to 2.39%, primarily due to growth in noninterest-bearing deposits and favorable deposit repricing on CDs and other interest-bearing deposits. Management remains focused on aligning deposit and liability durations with loan and asset durations where possible.

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, the provision for credit losses on loans was $3.9 million and $9.0 million, compared to $1.6 million and $5.6 million, for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024, respectively. The increase in provision for credit losses on loans reflects a specific credit provision of $1.0 million on a single commercial construction relationship for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and relatively higher consumer loan charge-offs and organic loan growth between the periods.

During the three months ended December 31, 2025, net charge-offs increased $1.0 million to $2.0 million, compared to $983,000 in the same period last year. The increase primarily reflected higher net charge-offs of $824,000 in indirect home improvement loans, $144,000 in commercial business loans and $33,000 in other loans. For the year ended December 31, 2025, net charge-offs increased $3.6 million to $8.9 million, compared to $5.3 million in 2024. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to a $2.3 million partial charge-off of a commercial construction loan reflecting the expected loss on the project, along with $2.1 million in increased net charge-offs in indirect home improvement loans. These increases were partially offset by decreases in charge-offs of C&I loans of $551,000 and marine loans of $292,000. Management attributes the increase in net charge-offs over the year primarily to economic volatility, as well as a single commercial construction charge-off driven by project-specific factors. Management recorded an additional $1.0 million in credit provision on the same project for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

Total noninterest income increased $1.8 million to $6.4 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2025, from $4.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to mortality proceeds on bank owned life insurance policies, which contributed $1.0 million, along with other miscellaneous noninterest income. Total noninterest income increased $721,000 to $22.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $21.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily the result of a $2.4 million increase in other noninterest income, primarily due to the $1.2 million bank owned life insurance mortality income and a $473,000 increase from increases in fair value on retained loans, partially offset by a $900,000 decrease in service charges and fee income, a $277,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans, and a net decrease of $520,000 from no activity in gains on sale of MSRs and investment securities, compared to an $8.4 million net gain on sale of MSRs, partially offset by a $7.8 million loss on sale of investment securities in 2024.

Noninterest expense increased $1.7 million to $26.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, from $24.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily the result of a $614,000 change in the fair value of MSRs, from a $583,000 recovery in the prior year quarter to a $31,000 impairment, a $572,000 increase in salaries and benefits, primarily driven by increases in salaries and benefits, and a $505,000 increase in operations expense primarily due to increased Washington State business and occupation tax. Noninterest expense increased $4.4 million, to $102.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $97.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to increases of $2.7 million in salaries and benefits and $1.4 million in operations expense, as well as the aforementioned change in the fair value and related impairment of MSRs between periods.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures:**

In addition to financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States ("GAAP"), this earnings release presents non-GAAP financial measures that include tangible book value per share and tangible common equity ratio. Management believes that providing the Company's tangible book value per share and tangible common equity ratio is consistent with the capital treatment utilized by the investment community, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios and facilitates comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's capital over time and to its competitors. Where applicable, the Company has also presented comparable GAAP information.

These non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for total stockholders' equity or operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
