**First Northwest Bancorp and First Fed Announce the Retirement of Norman Tonina, Jr. from Boards of Directors**

PORT ANGELES, Wash., December 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Fed Bank and its holding company, First Northwest Bancorp (NASDAQ: FNWB) (collectively the "Company"), announced the retirement of Norman J. Tonina, Jr. from the Company's Boards of Directors, effective at the regular Board meetings on December 9, 2025.

"Norm's commitment and contribution to the Company and Boards for the last 12 years cannot be understated. His leadership and dedication were critical to our most recent executive search and recruitment process. We are grateful his many years of service and wish him all the best in his retirement," said Cindy Finnie, Board Chair of FNWB and First Fed.

Mr. Tonina joined the First Fed Board in 2012 and was an inaugural member of the FNWB Board starting in 2015. He served as Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for both Boards during his tenure on the Boards. "One of the highlights of my time on the Board was leading the rigorous recruiting process that culminated in the hiring of Curt Queyrouze as CEO. Curt brings deep experience and strong leadership to guide the Bank forward, and I couldn't be more thrilled. The Board's thoughtful succession planning also enabled the appointment of experienced board members to succeed me on the First Fed Bank and FNWB Boards and lead the organization into the future. It has been an honor to serve alongside the Bank's leaders, employees, and fellow board members over the past 12 years, making a meaningful difference in the communities and for the customers that First Fed Bank serves."

Mr. Tonina began his career as a finance manager, rising to become Senior Director of Finance for Microsoft's Platforms and Applications business. In 1999, he transitioned to Human Resources at Microsoft, where he directed strategic global Human Resources initiatives in the areas of culture, leadership, and talent. He is an active non-profit board member and currently serves as President of the First Fed Foundation and has served as an adjunct faculty member in Seattle Pacific University's graduate program in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. Mr. Tonina earned his BA in Business Administration from Northeastern University, a certificate in Human Resources from the University of Michigan, and a Master's in Organizational Psychology from Antioch University.

The Boards, through the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, are continually engaged in succession planning and director recruitment efforts. The Committee will determine whether adding a new Board member is in the best interest of the Company at this time.
