PORT ANGELES, Wash., Jan. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Matthew P. Deines, President and CEO, comments on financial results:
"2023 was the most challenging year for many banks since the great recession," said Matthew P. Deines, President and CEO. "That was certainly the case for First Northwest Bancorp and First Fed Bank. In spite of our challenges, we celebrated our 100th anniversary in 2023, and we continue to celebrate our customers, employees and communities as we enter our second century. While we posted an operating loss in the 4th quarter, largely due to a restructure of our bond portfolio, changes to market rates led to an increase in tangible book value per share compared to September 2023 and December 2022. We look forward to a challenging and prosperous 2024 as we remain focused on our customers and their financial needs."
The Board of Directors of First Northwest Bancorp declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per common share. The dividend will be payable on February 23, 2024, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 9, 2024.

First Northwest Bancorp (Nasdaq: FNWB) ("First Northwest" or "Company") today reported a net loss of $5.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to net income of $2.5 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $6.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. Basic and diluted loss per share were $0.62 for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.28 for the third quarter of 2023 and $0.66 for the fourth quarter of 2022. In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company generated a return on average assets of -1.03%, a return on average equity of -14.05% and a return on average tangible common equity* of -14.20%. Loss before provision for income taxes was $6.9 million for the current quarter, compared to income of $3.1 million for the preceding quarter, a decrease of $10.0 million, or 321.3%, and decreased $13.8 million compared to income of $6.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2022.
Results in the fourth quarter of 2023 were impacted by a $5.4 million loss on sale of securities as First Fed took steps to reposition its securities portfolio by selling lower yielding investments. The cash from the transaction was in part reinvested back into the portfolio at current market rates with the remainder used to fund higher yielding loans and increase liquidity. We believe this transaction will better position the Bank for higher levels of interest income in 2024.
The Company sold available-for-sale investment securities with a book value of $46.1 million and weighted-average yield of 2.4% during the fourth quarter of 2023, for a pre-tax realized loss of $5.4 million. The investment securities sold consisted of $17.3 million of municipal bonds, $12.5 million of non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations, $7.8 million of agency collateral mortgage obligations, $2.5 million of U.S. Treasury securities, $4.0 million of collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs") and $1.7 million of international agency securities. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company used the proceeds to purchase $20.4 million of investment securities with a weighted average yield of 6.7%, fund $8.5 million of loans with a weighted-average yield of 8.5% and increase cash levels by $11.7 million at the 5.3% Fed Funds effective rate. The investment securities purchased consisted of $12.1 million of student loan floating rate bonds, $5.4 million of corporate asset-backed securities and $3.6 million of agency CMOs. These securities were all classified as available-for-sale upon purchase. The purchased securities have a positive spread differential of approximately 430 basis points over the securities that were sold, which is anticipated to result in $262,000 of additional pre-tax earnings on an annualized basis. Additionally, increased annualized interest income on loans of $723,000 and cash of $623,000, resulting from the loans funded and increased cash levels, are anticipated to have a total impact on earnings of $1.6 million. The Company estimates that the $5.4 million loss on the sale of securities will be earned back in approximately 3.4 years. The effective duration of the securities sold was 4.0 years compared to 1.0 year for the securities purchased. Upon execution of the repositioning transaction, the Bank's regulatory capital levels remained in excess of those required to be categorized as "well-capitalized." This repositioning of the securities portfolio is projected to be accretive to earnings, net interest margin and return on assets in future periods and is designed to provide the Company with greater flexibility in managing balance sheet growth.
Also during the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company determined that Quil Ventures was no longer a going concern, as their business model was not showing results, making the collectability of the receivable from and investment in Quil Ventures unlikely. Management determined that the related investment of $225,000 and commitment receivable of $1.5 million should be written off during the fourth quarter of 2023, impacting other noninterest income and other noninterest expense, respectively.
Other one-time noninterest expenses recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023 included an accrual for a civil money penalty proposed by the FDIC of $718,000 and a write-off of investor accounting related items totaling $725,000. The FDIC has proposed assessing a civil money penalty in connection with the concerns raised by the consent order entered into by the Bank. The Bank is engaged in discussions with the FDIC about the proposed civil money penalty and, as a result, other noninterest expenses in the fourth quarter of 2023 includes an accrual for a potential assessment of a civil money penalty by the FDIC. Additionally, a one-time gain of $470,000 on the sale of 1,404 shares of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock was recorded in other noninterest income during the fourth quarter of 2023.
Net Interest Income
Total interest income increased $475,000 to $26.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $25.8 million in the previous quarter, and increased $2.7 million from $23.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Interest income increased in the current quarter due to an increased volume of loans and higher yields on loans, investments and interest-earning deposits in banks. Interest and fees on loans increased year-over-year as First Fed's loan portfolio grew as a result of draws on new and existing lines of credit, originations of multi-family and commercial real estate loans, and auto and manufactured home loan purchases. The Northpointe Mortgage Purchase Program ("Northpointe MPP") participation also provided $504,000 of additional loan interest income. Loan yields increased over the prior year due to higher rates on new originations as well as the repricing of variable rate loans tied to the Prime Rate or other indices.
Total interest expense increased $1.2 million to $12.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $10.9 million in the third quarter of 2023, and increased $7.4 million from $4.7 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. Current quarter interest expense was higher due to a 27 basis point increase in the cost of deposits to 2.12% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, from 1.85% for the prior quarter. The increase over the fourth quarter of 2022 was the result of a 150 basis point increase in the cost of deposits from 0.62% in the fourth quarter one year ago, along with higher volumes and rates paid on certificates of deposit ("CDs") and short-term FHLB advances. A shift in the deposit mix from transaction and money market accounts to savings accounts and CDs resulted in higher costs of deposits. Utilization of brokered CDs also contributed to additional deposit costs with a 257 basis point increase to 4.72% for the current quarter compared to 2.15% for the fourth quarter one year ago.
Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the fourth quarter of 2023 decreased $755,000, or 5.1%, to $14.2 million, compared to $15.0 million for the preceding quarter, and decreased $4.7 million, or 25.0%, from the fourth quarter one year ago.
The Company recorded a $1.2 million provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily from the provision for credit losses on loans due to additional charge-offs from the Splash unsecured consumer loan program and an increased loss factor applied to commercial real estate loans. The provision for credit losses on loans was partially offset by a provision recovery on unfunded commitments due to a decrease in volume at quarter end. This compares to a credit loss provision of $371,000 for the preceding quarter. A loan loss provision of $285,000 was recorded for the fourth quarter of 2022, which was estimated using the incurred loss method based on historical loss trends combined with qualitative adjustments that was used prior to 2023.
The net interest margin decreased to 2.84% for the fourth quarter of 2023, from 2.97% for the prior quarter, and decreased 112 basis points compared to 3.96% for the fourth quarter of 2022. Decreases from both the prior quarter and the same quarter one year ago are due to higher funding costs for both deposits and borrowed funds. New loan originations are priced to account for the increasing cost of funds. Organic loan production is augmented with higher-yielding purchased loans through established relationships with loan originators. The Bank's fair value hedging agreement increased quarter-over-quarter interest income by $166,000. We believe the sale and redeployment of investment securities discussed above will also provide an increase in future loan and investment income.
The yield on average earning assets for the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 13 basis points to 5.27% compared to the third quarter of 2023 and increased 32 basis points from 4.95% for the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily attributable to higher loan rates at origination and increased yields on variable-rate loans. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher average loan balances augmented by increases in yields, which were positively impacted by the rising rate environment and overall improvements in the mix of interest-earning assets.
The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities increased 27 basis points to 2.87% for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 2.60% for the third quarter of 2023, and increased 163 basis points from 1.24% for the fourth quarter of 2022. Total cost of funds increased to 2.48% for the fourth quarter of 2023 from 2.23% in the prior quarter and increased from 1.02% for the fourth quarter of 2022. Current quarter increases were due to higher costs on interest-bearing deposits and borrowings in addition to increases in average CD and borrowing balances.
The increase over the same quarter last year was driven by higher rates paid on deposits and borrowings and higher average CD balances. The Company attracted and retained funding through the use of promotional products and a focus on digital account acquisition. The mix of retail deposit balances shifted from no or low-cost transaction accounts towards higher cost term certificate and savings products. Retail CDs represented 30.2%, 27.6% and 17.3% of retail deposits at December 31, 2023, September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Average interest-bearing deposit balances increased $1.3 million, or 0.1%, to $1.38 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2023 and increased $135.8 million, or 10.9%, compared to $1.24 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income decreased 200.9% to a loss of $2.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to income of $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to the $5.4 million loss on sale of securities recognized in the fourth quarter as the Company took steps to reposition the securities portfolio. Partially offsetting the investment securities loss was an increase in the valuation of servicing rights on sold loans of $178,000 and a one-time gain on sale of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock of $470,000 recorded in other income. An additional $200,000 of funds were recouped on Splash loan charge-offs in the current quarter compared to $750,000 recorded in other income in the preceding quarter. Noninterest income decreased 187.0% from $3.4 million in the same quarter one year ago, primarily due to the loss on sale of investment securities, partially offset by the gain on the sale of Visa Class B shares. Saleable mortgage loan production and related gains continued to be impacted by higher market rates on mortgage loans compared to the prior year.
Noninterest income declined $6.3 million to $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, mainly due to the loss on sale of securities in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense totaled $17.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $14.4 million for the preceding quarter and $15.1 million for the fourth quarter a year ago. Increases in other expense were due to the $1.5 million Quil Ventures commitment receivable write-off, an accrual of $718,000 for a potential civil money penalty proposed by the FDIC and a write-off of investor accounting related items totaling $725,000. These other expenses were partially offset by decreases in incentive compensation of $748,000 and marketing expenses of $266,000. The increase in total noninterest expenses compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 reflects the one-time expenses recorded for the commitment receivable, proposed civil money penalty accrual and investor accounting write-off, as well as higher Bank professional fees and FDIC insurance premiums. The year-over-year increases were partially offset by a $287,000 reduction in expenses related to Quin data processing and other expenses, and decreases in Bank incentive compensation, medical premium expenses and marketing expenses. The Company continues to focus on controlling compensation expense and reducing advertising and other discretionary spending. We do not anticipate a recurrence of any of the one-time charges referred to previously.
Noninterest expense decreased 1.4% to $61.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $62.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Compensation expense decreased $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to a $1.5 million reduction related to Quin compensation and lower Bank salaries, commissions, payroll taxes and medical insurance expenses. Quin non-compensation expenses included for the year ended December 31, 2023, totaled $320,000 compared to $2.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2022.

Investment Securities
Investment securities decreased $13.7 million, or 4.4%, to $295.6 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $309.3 million three months earlier, and decreased $31.0 million compared to $326.6 million at December 31, 2022. The market value of the portfolio increased $18.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to a $13.1 million improvement in unrealized losses driven by a decrease in long-term interest rates and $4.9 million of realized losses related to the securities sale. At December 31, 2023, municipal bonds totaled $87.8 million and comprised the largest portion of the investment portfolio at 29.7%. Non-agency issued mortgage-backed securities ("MBS non-agency") were the second largest segment, totaling $76.1 million, or 25.7%, of the portfolio at quarter end. Included in MBS non-agency are $39.2 million of commercial mortgaged-backed securities ("CMBS"), of which 94.9% are in "A" tranches and the remaining 5.1% are in "B" tranches. Our largest exposure is to long-term care facilities, which comprises 76.0%, or $29.8 million, of our private label CMBS securities. All of the CMBS bonds have credit enhancements ranging from 29% to 97%, with a weighted-average credit enhancement of 56%, that further reduce risk of loss on these investments.
The sale of investment securities during the fourth quarter of 2023 resulted in a shift in the investment mix from mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds and U.S. Treasury notes toward more U.S. agency and corporate asset-backed securities.
The estimated average life of the securities portfolio was approximately 7.69 years, compared to 7.65 years in the prior quarter and 8.23 years in the fourth quarter of 2022. The effective duration of the portfolio was approximately 4.75 years at December 31, 2023, compared to 4.91 years in the prior quarter and 5.08 years at the end of the fourth quarter of 2022.

Loans and Unfunded Loan Commitments
Net loans, excluding loans held for sale, increased $24.5 million, or 1.5%, to $1.64 billion at December 31, 2023, from $1.62 billion at September 30, 2023, and increased $111.1 million, or 7.3%, from $1.53 billion one year ago. Commercial business loans increased $10.9 million, primarily attributable to an increase in our Northpointe MPP participation from $162,000 three months prior to $9.5 million at the current quarter end, along with $5.3 million of organic originations partially offset by repayments. One-to-four family loans increased $8.5 million during the current quarter as a result of $13.9 million in residential construction loans that converted to permanent amortizing loans, partially offset by payments received. Multi-family loans increased $7.6 million during the current quarter. The increase was primarily the result of $6.0 million of construction loans converting into permanent amortizing loans, partially offset by scheduled payments. Commercial real estate loans increased $6.5 million during the current quarter compared to the previous quarter as originations exceeded payoffs and scheduled payments. Home equity loans increased $5.5 million over the previous quarter due to draws on new and existing commitments. Auto and other consumer loans increased $344,000 during the current quarter as originations exceeded payoffs and scheduled payments. Construction loans decreased $13.7 million during the quarter, with $19.9 million converting into fully amortizing loans, partially offset by draws on new and existing loans.
The Company originated $4.5 million in residential mortgages during the fourth quarter of 2023 and sold $4.2 million, with an average gross margin on sale of mortgage loans of approximately 2.01%. This production compares to residential mortgage originations of $8.3 million in the preceding quarter with sales of $9.7 million, and an average gross margin of 2.02%. Single-family home inventory remains historically low and higher market rates on mortgage loans continue to limit saleable mortgage loan production. New single-family residence construction loan commitments totaled $2.3 million in the fourth quarter, compared to $6.5 million in the preceding quarter.

Deposits
Total deposits increased $19.1 million to $1.68 billion at December 31, 2023, compared to $1.66 billion at September 30, 2023, and increased $112.6 million, or 7.2%, compared to $1.56 billion one year ago. Increases in brokered CDs of $38.0 million, consumer CDs of $27.1 million, public fund CDs of $3.3 million, business CDs of $2.9 million and business money market accounts of $2.4 million, were offset by decreases in consumer demand accounts of $17.3 million, consumer money market accounts of $12.9 million, business demand accounts of $12.6 million, business savings accounts of $6.5 million and consumer savings accounts of $4.5 million, during the fourth quarter of 2023. Decreases in demand and money market accounts were driven by customer behavior as they sought out higher rates offered in CDs. Deposits originated through digital channels, which are included in the deposits described above, increased $50.8 million, or 339.8%, year-over-year to $65.8 million at December 31, 2023, from $15.0 million at December 31, 2022. The current rate environment has contributed to greater competition for deposits with additional deposit rate specials offered to attract new funds.
The Company estimates that $363.7 million, or 22%, of total deposit balances were uninsured at December 31, 2023. Approximately $235.6 million, or 14%, of total deposits were uninsured business and consumer deposits with the remaining $128.1 million, or 8%, consisting of uninsured public funds. Uninsured public fund balances are fully collateralized. The Bank holds an FHLB letter of credit as part of our participation in the Washington Public Deposit Protection Commission program which covers $110.5 million of related deposit balances. The remaining $17.6 million is fully covered through pledged securities.
Consumer deposits make up 60% of total deposits with an average balance of $24,000 per account. Business deposits make up 20% of total deposits with an average balance of $47,000 per account. Public Fund deposits make up 8% of total deposits with an average balance of $1.5 million per account. We have maintained the majority of our public fund relationships for over 10 years. The remaining 12% of account balances are brokered CDs. Approximately 68% of our customer base is located in rural areas, with 20% in urban areas and the remaining 12% are brokered deposits.

Asset Quality
Nonperforming loans were $18.6 million at December 31, 2023, an increase of $16.3 million from September 30, 2023, primarily attributable to a $15.0 million commercial construction loan placed on nonaccrual due to continued credit concerns, $877,000 of commercial business loans and a newly delinquent single-family residential loan. The percentage of the allowance for credit losses on loans to nonperforming loans decreased to 94% at December 31, 2023, from 714% at September 30, 2023, and from 900% at December 31, 2022. Classified loans increased $12.2 million to $35.1 million at December 31, 2023, due to the downgrade of a commercial loan relationship totaling $9.3 million involving several commercial real estate and business loans along with downgrades of a $3.6 million Small Business Administration loan and a $104,000 commercial business loan during the fourth quarter. The $15.0 million construction loan, which became a classified loan in the fourth quarter of 2022, and the $9.3 million commercial loan relationship account for 69% of the classified loan balance at December 31, 2023. The Bank is actively working with these borrowers to ensure the best possible outcome on these loans, including the potential sale of the underlying collateral to satisfy the real estate loans.
The allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of total loans was 1.05% at December 31, 2023, increasing from 1.04% at both the prior quarter end and one year earlier. The current quarter increase can be attributed to higher loan balances offset by changes in the loan mix with a shift in balances to amortizing loans, which carry lower reserve estimates.

Capital
Total shareholders’ equity increased to $163.3 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $156.1 million three months earlier, due to an increase in the fair market value of the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio, net of taxes, of $14.1 million, partially offset by a net loss of $5.5 million, a $1.2 million decrease in the after-tax fair market value of derivatives, dividends declared of $673,000 and share repurchases totaling $158,000.
Tangible book value per common share* was $16.83 at December 31, 2023, compared to $16.03 at September 30, 2023, and $16.13 at December 31, 2022. Book value per common share was $16.99 at December 31, 2023, compared to $16.20 at September 30, 2023, and $16.31 at December 31, 2022.
Capital levels for both the Company and its operating bank, First Fed, remain in excess of applicable regulatory requirements and the Bank was categorized as "well-capitalized" at December 31, 2023. Common Equity Tier 1 and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratios at December 31, 2023, were 13.1% and 14.1%, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial measures that are not defined in generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Non-GAAP measures are presented where management believes the information will help investors understand the Company’s results of operations or financial position and assess trends. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure is also provided. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of the GAAP and non-GAAP measures are presented below.
