________________________

&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) Provision for credit losses on loans as calculated using the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") method adopted January 1, 2022, and provision for loan losses as calculated using the previous incurred loss method in 2021. The change in methodology reflects shifts in allocation between segments due to various changes, adjustments to qualitative factors, changes in loan balances, and charge-off and recovery activity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) 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, 2022, the Company recorded a net increase in fair value of $181,000 and a net decrease in fair value of $1.7 million, as compared to a net increase in fair value of $26,000 and a net decrease in fair value of $29,000 for the three months and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were $14.0 million and $16.1 million, respectively, in residential mortgage loans recorded at fair value as they were previously transferred from held for sale to loans held for investment.

**Asset Summary**

Total assets decreased $19.2 million, or 0.7%, to $2.63 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $2.65 billion at September 30, 2022, and increased $346.5 million, or 15.2%, from $2.29 billion at December 31, 2021. The quarter over linked quarter decrease in total assets was primarily due to decreases in total cash and cash equivalents of $118.4 million, loans held for sale ("HFS") of $3.4 million, Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") stock of $3.0 million, and other assets of $2.7 million, partially offset by increases in loans receivable, net of $106.9 million and securities available-for-sale ("AFS") of $1.3 million. The year over year increase was primarily due to increases in loans receivable, net of $462.3 million, cash and cash equivalents of $14.9 million, deferred tax asset, net of $6.7 million, FHLB stock of $5.8 million, other assets of $5.0 million, accrued interest receivable of $3.6 million, operating lease right-of-use of $1.7 million, and servicing rights of $1.0 million, partially offset by decreases in loans HFS of $105.7 million, securities AFS of $42.1 million, and certificates of deposit ("CDs") at other financial institutions of $5.8 million.

The decrease in loan purchase and refinance activity, as well as sales activity, compared to the prior periods reflects the impact of rising market interest rates.

Gross margins on home loan sales decreased to 2.15% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, compared to 2.31% in the previous quarter and decreased from 3.66% 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) Includes $2.3 million, $1.2 million, and $90.0 million of brokered deposits at December 31, 2022, September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Noninterest-bearing accounts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Includes $59.7 million, $66.8 million, and $5.0 million of brokered deposits at December 31, 2022, September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Includes $332.0 million, $256.6 million, and $97.6 million of brokered deposits at December 31, 2022, September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Interest-bearing checking balance as of December 31, 2021, was revised due to the misclassification of certain checking products in previous periods. As a result of the misclassification, interest-bearing checking balance as of December 31, 2021, of $121.2 million were reclassified to noninterest-bearing checking for comparative purposes.

At December 31, 2022, certificates of deposit ("CDs"), which include retail and nonretail CDs, totaled $729.8 million, compared to $360.7 million at September 30, 2022, and $369.1 million at December 31, 2021, with nonretail CDs representing 49.3%, 78.8% and 30.9% of total CDs at such dates, respectively. At December 31, 2022, nonretail CDs, which include brokered CDs, online CDs, and public funds CDs, increased $75.2 million to $359.6 million, compared to $284.4 million at September 30, 2022, due to an increase of $75.4 million in brokered CDs. The year over year increase in nonretail CDs of $245.4 million from $114.2 million at December 31, 2021, was primarily the result of a $234.4 million increase in brokered CDs.

At December 31, 2022, borrowings comprised of FHLB advances decreased $74.3 million, or 28.5%, to $186.5 million from $260.8 million at September 30, 2022, and increased $144.0 million, or 338.6% from $42.5 million at December 31, 2021.

Total stockholders' equity increased $11.2 million, to $231.7 million at December 31, 2022, from $220.5 million at September 30, 2022, and decreased $15.8 million from $247.5 million at December 31, 2021. The increase in stockholders' equity during the current quarter reflects net income of $7.6 million, partially offset by dividends paid of $1.5 million. In addition, stockholders' equity was positively impacted by increased unrealized net gains in securities AFS of $4.1 million, net of tax, reflecting changes in market interest rates during the quarter, partially offset by unrealized losses on fair value and cash flow hedges of $428,000, net of tax, resulting in a net $3.7 million

decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Book value per common share was $30.42 at December 31, 2022, compared to $29.07 at September 30, 2022, and $30.75 at December 31, 2021.

The Bank is well capitalized under the minimum capital requirements established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") with a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.7%, a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 11.3%, and a common equity Tier 1 ("CET1") capital ratio of 12.5% at December 31, 2022.

The Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.0%, a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 9.7%, and a CET1 ratio of 10.7% at December 31, 2022.

**Credit Quality**

The allowance for credit losses on loans ("ACLL") at December 31, 2022, increased to $28.0 million, or 1.26% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS, compared to $26.4 million, or 1.25% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS at September 30, 2022, and $25.6 million, or 1.46% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS, at December 31, 2021. The $1.6 million increase in the ACLL through the provision of credit losses was primarily due to higher risks from economic uncertainty, the increase in loans, and increased reserves on individually evaluated nonaccrual loans. The $2.4 million increase in the ACLL at December 31, 2022, from December 31, 2021, was primarily due to the growth in loans, partially offset by the one-time cumulative-effect adjustment of $2.9 million as of the CECL adoption date of January 1, 2022. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments decreased $545,000 to $2.5 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $3.1 million at September 30, 2022, and increased $2.0 million from $499,000 at December 31, 2021.

Nonperforming loans increased $411,000 to $8.7 million at December 31, 2022, from $8.2 million at September 30, 2022, and increased $2.8 million from $5.8 million at December 31, 2021. The increase in nonperforming loans at December 31, 2022, compared to the linked quarter was primarily due to an increase in nonperforming indirect home improvement loans of $455,000 and compared to the same period last year was primarily due to an increase in nonperforming commercial business loans of $1.9 million, indirect home improvement loans of $525,000, one-to-four-family loans of $440,000, and marine loans of $211,000.

Loans classified as substandard increased $3.6 million to $20.2 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $16.6 million at September 30, 2022, and increased $2.1 from $18.1 million at December 31, 2021. The quarter over linked quarter increase in substandard loans was attributable to increases of $2.1 million in one-to-four-family loans and $1.9 million in commercial real estate loans, partially offset by a decrease of $806,000 in commercial and industrial loans. The year over year increase in substandard loans was primarily due to increases of $4.5 million in commercial real estate loans, $522,000 in indirect home improvement loans, and $450,000 in one-to-four-family loans, partially offset by a decrease of $3.3 million in commercial and industrial loans. There was one other real estate owned ("OREO") property in the amount of $570,000 at December 31, 2022, one OREO in the amount of $145,000 at September 30, 2022, compared to none at December 31, 2021.

At December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, the Company had two commercial business loans totaling $3.7 million and $3.8 million, respectively, classified as troubled debt restructured ("TDRs") loans, compared to none at December 31, 2021. These TDRs were nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

**Operating Results**

Net interest income increased $6.6 million, to $29.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from $22.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. This comparable quarter over quarter increase was primarily the result of an improved mix of loans versus other interest-bearing assets and increased balances in

------

FS Bancorp Q4 Earnings<br>January 25, 2023<br>Page 8

higher yielding loans. Interest income increased $11.0 million, primarily due to an increase of $10.6 million in interest income on loans receivable, including fees, impacted primarily by loan growth and rising interest rates. Interest expense increased $4.4 million, primarily as a result of higher market interest rates.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net interest income increased by $17.6 million, to $104.3 million, from $86.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 for the same reasons as described for the three-month comparison above, with an increase in interest income of $22.3 million and an increase in interest expense of $4.7 million.

NIM increased 42 basis points to 4.62% for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from 4.20% for the same period in the prior year, and increased 33 basis points to 4.46% for the year ended December 31, 2022, from 4.13% for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in NIM for both the three months and year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, reflects new loan originations at higher market interest rates, variable rate interest-earning assets repricing higher following recent increases in market interest rates, and an improved asset mix of higher yielding assets as lower yielding excess cash funded higher yielding loans. The benefit from higher rates and interest earning assets were partially offset by rising deposit and borrowing costs. Increases in average balances of higher costing CDs and borrowings placed additional pressure on the NIM.

The average total cost of funds, including noninterest-bearing checking, increased 69 basis points to 1.12% for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from 0.43% for the three months ended December 31, 2021. This increase was predominantly due to the rise in cost for market rate deposits. The average total cost of funds increased 16 basis points to 0.67% for the year ended December 31, 2022, from 0.51% for the year ended December 31, 2021. Management remains focused on matching deposit/liability duration with the duration of loans/assets where appropriate.

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2022, the provision for credit losses on loans was $1.6 million and $6.2 million, respectively, compared to a recovery from the allowance for loan losses of $1.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and provision for loan losses on loans of $500,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021, as calculated under the prior incurred loss methodology. The provision for credit losses on loans reflects a deterioration of current economic factors, the increase in total loans receivable, and increased reserves on individually evaluated nonaccrual loans.

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a recovery from the allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments of $545,000 and $365,000, compared to provisions for loan losses on unfunded commitments of $3,000 and $92,000, for the three months and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, under the prior incurred loss methodology. The recovery from the allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments in 2022 was primarily attributed to a decline in the amount of unfunded commitments.

During the three months ended December 31, 2022, net charge-offs totaled $564,000, compared to $290,000 for the same period last year, primarily due to net charge-off increases of $175,000 in indirect home improvement loans and $98,000 in marine loans. Net charge-offs totaled $1.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $1.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. The year over year increase was primarily due to a net charge-off increase of $326,000 in other consumer loans (which included an increase in deposit overdraft net charge-offs of $301,000) and a net charge-off increase of $94,000 in marine loans, partially offset by reductions in net charge-offs of $38,000 in commercial business loans and $12,000 in indirect home improvement loans.

Noninterest income decreased $4.2 million, to $3.7 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from $7.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The decrease reflects a $5.5 million decrease in gain on sale of loans due to a reduction in origination and sales volume of loans HFS and a reduction in gross margins of sold loans, partially offset by an increase of $1.1 million in service charges and fee income as a result of less amortization of mortgage servicing rights reflecting increased market interest rates and increased servicing fees from non-portfolio serviced loans. Noninterest income decreased $19.4 million to $18.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, from $37.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. This decrease was primarily the result of a $23.2 million decrease in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by increases of $4.2 million in service charges and fee income.

Noninterest expense increased $890,000 to $21.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from $21.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase in noninterest expense primarily reflects an increase of $898,000 in acquisition costs related to the pending branch acquisition, compared to none in the same period last year. Other increases included $567,000 in data processing and $275,000 in FDIC insurance. These increases were partially offset by a $868,000 reduction in salaries and benefits, primarily due to a reduction in incentive compensation and commissions. Noninterest expense increased $2.9 million, to $79.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, from $76.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase as compared to the same period last year was primarily due to a reduction in the recovery of servicing rights to $1,000 from $2.1 million, along with increases of $1.1 million in data processing, $898,000 in acquisition costs mentioned above, $588,000 in FDIC insurance, $273,000 in occupancy, and $263,000 in marketing and advertising, partially offset by a decrease of $2.1 million in salaries and benefits, primarily due to a reduction in incentive compensation and commissions and employee stock ownership plan expense.

____________________________

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Earnings per share for the three months and year ended December 31, 2021, was revised due to the improper inclusion of certain unvested shares in the denominator of basic and diluted earnings per share. As a result of the inclusion, earnings per share was understated for the three months ended and year ended December 31, 2021. Basic earnings per share for those periods was updated to $1.05 and $4.48, respectively, from $1.04 and $4.42 as previously reported. Diluted earnings per share was updated to $1.03 and $4.37, respectively, from $1.01 and $4.32 as previously reported.

**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 contains tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common stockholders' equity by the number of common shares outstanding. Tangible common stockholders' equity is calculated by excluding intangible assets from stockholders' equity. For this financial measure, the Company's intangible assets are goodwill and core deposit intangible. The Company believes that this non-GAAP measure is consistent with the capital treatment utilized by the investment community, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios and presents this measure to facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's capital over time and in comparison to its competitors.

This non-GAAP financial measure has inherent limitations, is not required to be uniformly applied, and is not audited. Further, this non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for book

value per share or total stockholders' equity determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Reconciliation of the GAAP book value per share and non-GAAP tangible book value per share is presented below.
