Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)  Basis of Presentation:  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Bank (the "Bank") (collectively, "the Company") were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements have been included.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2020 (“2020 Form 10-K”).  The unaudited consolidated results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2021.

(b)  Principles of Consolidation:  The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Service Corporation.   All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

(c)  Operating Segment:  The Company has one reportable operating segment which is defined as community banking in western Washington under the operating name, "Timberland Bank."

(d)  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(e)  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2021 presentation with no change to previously reported net income or total shareholders’ equity.

The Company has evaluated the investment securities in the above tables and has determined that the declines in their fair value are temporary.  The unrealized losses are primarily due to changes in market interest rates and spreads in the market for mortgage-related products. The fair value of these securities is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity dates and/or as the pricing spreads narrow on mortgage-related securities.  The Company has the ability and the intent to hold the investments until the fair value recovers.  Furthermore, as of June 30, 2021, management does not have the intent to sell any of the securities classified as available for sale for which the estimated fair value is below the recorded value and believes that it

13

is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell such securities before a recovery of cost (or recorded value if previously written down).

The Company bifurcates OTTI into (1) amounts related to credit losses which are recognized through earnings and (2) amounts related to all other factors which are recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). To determine the component of the gross OTTI related to credit losses, the Company compared the amortized cost basis of the OTTI security to the present value of its revised expected cash flows, discounted using its pre-impairment yield.  The revised expected cash flow estimates for individual securities are based primarily on an analysis of default rates, prepayment speeds and third-party analytic reports.  Significant judgment by management is required in this analysis that includes, but is not limited to, assumptions regarding the collectability of principal and interest, net of related expenses, on the underlying loans.  

The following table presents a summary of the significant inputs utilized to measure management’s estimates of the credit loss component on OTTI securities as of June 30, 2021 and 2020:

	Range				Weighted
	Minimum		Maximum		Average
June 30, 2021
Constant prepayment rate	6.00	%	15.00	%	12.84	%

During the nine months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a $5,000 net realized loss (as a result of investment securities being deemed worthless) on 12 held to maturity investment securities, all of which had been recognized previously as a credit loss. During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $65,000 net realized loss (as a result of investment securities being deemed worthless) on 9 held to maturity investment securities, all of which had been recognized previously as a credit loss.

The recorded amount of investment securities pledged as collateral for public fund deposits, federal treasury tax and loan deposits, FHLB collateral and other non-profit organization deposits totaled $98.62 million and $81.03 million at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

The contractual maturities of debt securities at June 30, 2021 were as follows (dollars in thousands).  Expected maturities may differ from scheduled maturities due to the prepayment of principal or call provisions.

(3) GOODWILL AND CDI

Goodwill is initially recorded when the purchase price paid in a business combination exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Goodwill is presumed to have an indefinite useful life and is analyzed annually for impairment.  The Company performs an annual review during the third quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine if the recorded goodwill is impaired. For purposes of goodwill impairment testing, the services offered through the Bank and its subsidiary are managed as one strategic unit and represent the Company's only reporting unit.

The annual goodwill impairment test begins with a qualitative assessment of whether it is "more likely than not" that the reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount. If an entity concludes that it is not "more likely than not" that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it need not perform a two-step impairment test. If the Company's qualitative assessment concluded that it is "more likely than not" that the fair value of its reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it must perform the two-step impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of

15

goodwill impairment loss to be recognized, if any. The first step of the goodwill impairment test compares the estimated fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, or the book value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit equals or exceeds its book value, goodwill is considered not impaired, and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary.

The second step, if necessary, measures the amount of goodwill impairment loss to be recognized. The reporting unit must determine fair value for all assets and liabilities, excluding goodwill. The net of the assigned fair value of assets and liabilities is then compared to the book value of the reporting unit, and any excess book value becomes the implied fair value of goodwill. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds the newly calculated implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount required to write-down the goodwill to the implied fair value.

Management's qualitative assessment takes into consideration macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost or margin factors, financial performance and share price of the Company's common stock. The Company performed its fiscal year 2021 goodwill impairment test during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Based on this assessment, the Company determined that it is not "more likely than not" that the Company's fair value is less than its carrying amount, and, therefore goodwill was determined not to be impaired at May 31, 2021.

A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of goodwill impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include, among others: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a sustained, significant decline in the Company's stock price and market capitalization; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; adverse assessment or action by a regulator; and unanticipated competition. Any change in these indicators could have a significant negative impact on the Company's financial condition, impact the goodwill impairment analysis or cause the Company to perform a goodwill impairment analysis more frequently than once per year.

As of June 30, 2021, management believes that there have been no events or changes in the circumstances since May 31, 2021 that would indicate a potential impairment of goodwill. No assurances can be given, however, that the Company will not record an impairment loss on goodwill in the future. If adverse economic conditions or decreases in the Company's stock price and market capitalization as a result of the novel coronavirus of 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic were to be deemed sustained rather then temporary, it may significantly affect the fair value of the Company's goodwill and may trigger impairment charges. Any impairment charge could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. The recorded amount of goodwill at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 remained unchanged at $15.13 million.

CDI represents the future economic benefit of the potential cost savings from acquiring core deposits as part of a business combination compared to the cost of alternative funding sources. CDI is amortized to non-interest expense using an accelerated method based on an estimated runoff of related deposits over a period of ten years. CDI is evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable, with any changes in estimated useful life accounted for prospectively over the revised remaining life. As of June 30, 2021, management believes that there have been no events or changes in the circumstances that would indicate a potential impairment of CDI.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company uses credit risk grades which reflect the Company’s assessment of a loan’s risk or loss potential.  The Company categorizes loans into risk grade categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors such as the estimated fair value of the collateral.  The Company uses the following definitions for credit risk ratings as part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of its loan portfolio:

Pass:  Pass loans are defined as those loans that meet acceptable quality underwriting standards.

Watch:  Watch loans are defined as those loans that still exhibit acceptable quality, but have some concerns that justify greater attention.  If these concerns are not corrected, a potential for further adverse categorization exists.  These concerns could relate to a specific condition peculiar to the borrower, its industry segment or the general economic environment.

Special Mention: Special mention loans are defined as those loans deemed by management to have some potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the payment prospects of the loan. 

Substandard:  Substandard loans are defined as those loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor, or of the collateral pledged.  Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt.  If the weakness or weaknesses are not corrected, there is the distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained.

Doubtful: Loans in this classification have the weaknesses of substandard loans with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make the collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. At both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, there were no loans classified as doubtful.

Loss:  Loans in this classification are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as bankable assets is not warranted.  This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this loan even though partial recovery may be realized in the future. At both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, there were no loans classified as loss.

Impaired Loans

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts (principal and interest) when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential mortgage loans and consumer loans, may be collectively evaluated for impairment. When a loan has been identified as being impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured by using discounted cash flows, except when, as an alternative, the current estimated fair value of the collateral (reduced by estimated costs to sell, if applicable) or observable market price is used. The valuation of real estate collateral is subjective in nature and may be adjusted in future periods because of changes in economic conditions.  Management considers third-party appraisals, as well as independent fair market value assessments from realtors or persons involved in selling real estate, in determining the estimated fair value of particular properties.  In addition, as certain of these third-party appraisals and independent fair market value assessments are only updated periodically, changes in the values of specific properties may have occurred subsequent to the most recent appraisals.  Accordingly, the amounts of any such potential changes and any related adjustments are generally recorded at the time that such information is received. When the estimated net realizable value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest and net deferred loan origination fees or costs), impairment is recognized by creating or adjusting an allocation of the allowance for loan losses, and uncollected accrued interest is reversed against interest income. If ultimate collection of principal is in doubt, all cash receipts on impaired loans are applied to reduce the principal balance. The categories of non-accrual loans and impaired loans overlap, although they are not identical.

_____________________________________________

(1) For the year ended September 30, 2020.

A troubled debt restructured loan ("TDR") is a loan for which the Company, for reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that the Company would not otherwise consider.  Examples of such concessions include, but are not limited to: a reduction in the stated interest rate; an extension of the maturity at an interest rate below current market rates; a reduction in the face amount of the debt; a reduction in the accrued interest; or re-amortizations, extensions, deferrals and renewals.  TDRs are considered impaired and are individually evaluated for impairment.  TDRs are classified as non-accrual (and considered to be non-performing) unless they have been performing in accordance with modified terms for a period of at least six months. The Company had $2.57 million and $3.07 million in TDRs included in impaired loans at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively, and had no commitments at these dates to lend additional funds on these loans.  There was no allowance for loan losses allocated to TDRs at June 30, 2021, and, at September 30, 2020, there was $3,000 in allowance for loan losses allocated to TDRs. There were no TDRs for which there was a payment default within the first 12 months of the modification during the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

25

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 signed into law on March 27, 2020 ("CARES Act") provided guidance around the modification of loans as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which outlined, among other criteria, that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis to borrowers who were current as defined under the CARES Act prior to any relief, are not TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers are considered current under the CARES Act and related regulatory guidance if they are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 ("CAA 2021") was signed into law. Among other purposes, this act provides coronavirus emergency response and relief, including extending relief offered under the CARES Act related to restructured loans as a result of COVID-19 through January 1, 2022 or 60 days after the end of the the national emergency declared by the President, whichever is earlier.

In response to requests from borrowers, the Company made payment deferral modifications (typically 90-day payment deferrals with interest continuing to accrue or scheduled to be paid monthly) on a number of loans. Nearly all of these borrowers had resumed making payments as of June 30, 2021, and as of that date, only one loan with a balance of $1.70 million remained on deferral status under a COVID-19 loan modification forbearance agreement. Loan modifications in accordance with the CARES Act and related regulatory guidance are still subject to an evaluation in regard to determining whether or not a loan is deemed to be impaired. See Note 10 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

The following tables set forth information with respect to total COVID-19 loan modifications, on deferral status, as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

(5) LEASES

The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standard Board's ("FASB's") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842, Leases ("ASC 842") on October 1, 2019 and began recording operating lease liabilities and operating lease ROU assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has operating leases for three retail bank branch offices. The ROU assets totaled $2.89 million at October 1, 2019. The Company's leases have remaining lease terms of sixteen months to eleven years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to five years.

The components of lease cost (included in the premises and equipment expense category in the consolidated statements of income) are as follows for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2021		Nine Months Ended June 30, 2021
Lease cost:

The following table provides supplemental information to operating leases at or for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (dollars in thousands):

	At or For Three Months Ended June 30, 2021				At or For Nine Months Ended June 30, 2021
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities:
Operating cash flows from operating leases	$	80			$	240

Weighted average remaining lease term-operating leases	9.5			years	9.5			years
Weighted average discount rate-operating leases	2.22		%		2.22		%

The Company's leases typically do not contain a discount rate implicit in the lease contracts. As an alternative, the weighted average discount rate used to value the future value of lease payments due in calculating the value of the ROU asset and lease liability was determined by utilizing the September 30, 2019 fixed-rate advances issued by the FHLB, for all leases entered into prior to the October 1, 2019 adoption date.

(6) NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period without considering any dilutive items.  Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents for items that are dilutive, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the treasury stock method at the average share price for the Company’s common stock during the period.  Common stock equivalents arise from the assumed conversion of outstanding stock options to purchase common stock.  

Information regarding the calculation of basic and diluted net income per common share for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

(8) STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS

Under the Company’s 2003 Stock Option Plan, the Company was able to grant options for up to 300,000 shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors and directors emeriti.  Under the Company's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company is able to grant options and awards of restricted stock (with or without performance measures) for up to 352,366 shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors and directors emeriti. Under the Company's 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, which was approved by shareholders on January 28, 2020, the Company is able to grant options and awards or restricted stock (with or

30

without performance measures) for up to 350,000 shares of common stock, of which 300,000 shares are reserved to be awarded to employees, including officers, and 50,000 shares are reserved to be awarded to directors and directors emeriti.  Shares issued may be purchased in the open market or may be issued from authorized and unissued shares.  The exercise price of each option equals the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Generally, options and restricted stock vest in 20% annual installments on each of the five anniversaries from the date of the grant, and options generally have a maximum contractual term of ten years from the date of grant. At June 30, 2021, there were 29,926 shares of common stock available which may be awarded as options or restricted stock pursuant to future grant under the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. At June 30, 2021, there were 298,500 shares of common stock available which may be awarded as options or restricted stock pursuant to future grant under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan.

At both June 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no unvested restricted stock awards. There were no restricted stock grants awarded during the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Stock option activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is summarized as follows:

	Nine Months Ended June 30, 2021			Nine Months Ended June 30, 2020
	Number of Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price		Number of Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price

(9) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined under GAAP as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of three levels. These levels are:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The Company's assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of investment securities available for sale and investments in equity securities. The estimated fair values of MBS are based upon market prices of similar securities or observable inputs (Level 2). The estimated fair values of mutual funds are based upon quoted market prices (Level 1).

The Company had no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. The Company's assets measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

There were no transfers among Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended September 30, 2020.

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with GAAP.  These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market value that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period.

The Company uses the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value on a non-recurring basis:

Impaired Loans: The estimated fair value of impaired loans is calculated using the collateral value method or on a discounted cash flow basis.  The specific reserve for collateral dependent impaired loans is based on the estimated fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell, if applicable.  In some cases, adjustments are made to the appraised values due to various factors including age of the appraisal, age of comparables included in the appraisal and known changes in the market and in the collateral. Such adjustments may be significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Investment Securities Held to Maturity: The estimated fair value of investment securities held to maturity is based upon the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the investment security.  Such assumptions include quoted market prices (Level 1), market prices of similar securities or observable inputs (Level 2) and unobservable inputs such as dealer quotes, discounted cash flows or similar techniques (Level 3).

OREO and Other Repossessed Assets, net:  OREO and other repossessed assets are recorded at estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell.  Estimated fair value is generally determined by management based on a number of factors, including third-party appraisals of estimated fair value in an orderly sale.  Estimated costs to sell are based on standard market factors.  The valuation of OREO and other repossessed assets is subject to significant external and internal judgment (Level 3).

The following table summarizes the balances of assets measured at estimated fair value on a non-recurring basis at June 30, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

GAAP requires disclosure of estimated fair values for certain financial instruments. Such estimates are subjective in nature, and significant judgment is required regarding the risk characteristics of various financial instruments at a discrete point in time. Therefore, such estimates could vary significantly if assumptions regarding uncertain factors were to change. In addition, as the Company normally intends to hold the majority of its financial instruments until maturity, it does not expect to realize many of the estimated amounts disclosed. The disclosures also do not include estimated fair value amounts for certain items which are not defined as financial instruments but for which may have significant value. The Company does not believe that it would be practicable to estimate a representative fair value for these types of items as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. Because GAAP excludes certain items from fair value disclosure requirements, any aggregation of the fair value amounts presented would not represent the underlying value of the Company. Additionally, in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses the exit price notion in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

(10) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended by ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10 and ASU 2019-11. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred losses methodology with a current expected losses methodology with respect to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and

35

other receivables, loans, held to maturity investment securities and off-balance sheet commitments. In addition, ASU 2016-13 requires credit losses relating to available for sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction of the carrying amount. ASU 2016-13 also changes the accounting for purchased credit-impaired securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 retains many of the current disclosure requirements in GAAP and expands certain disclosure requirements. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Upon adoption, the Company expects a change in the processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in the assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. In addition, the current policy for OTTI on investment securities available for sale will be replaced with an allowance approach. The Company is reviewing the requirements of ASU 2016-13 and has begun developing and implementing processes and procedures to help ensure that it is fully compliant with the amendments at the adoption date. At this time, the Company anticipates that the allowance for loan losses will increase as a result of the implementation of this ASU; however, until its evaluation is complete, the magnitude of the increase will be unknown.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill and eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) at the impairment testing date following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by

which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax

deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption ASU 2017-04 is not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The following disclosure requirements were removed from ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement: (1) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; (2) the policy for timing of transfers between levels; and (3) the valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU clarifies that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. This ASU adds the following disclosure requirements for Level 3 measurements: (1) changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for the recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period, and (2) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 effective October 1, 2020, and it did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The amendments in this ASU broaden the scope of ASC Subtopic 350-40 to include costs incurred to implement a hosting arrangement that is a service contract. The amendments align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred

in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The costs are capitalized or expensed depending on the nature of the costs and the project stage during which they are incurred, consistent with the accounting for internal-use software costs. The amendments in this ASU result in consistent capitalization of implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract and implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this ASU. ASU 2018-15 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2018-15 effective October 1, 2020, and it did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Simplifying the accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles

36

in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidelines. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020,

including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU applies to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or other rate references expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU permits an entity to make necessary modifications to eligible contracts or transactions without requiring contract remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. This ASU is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has not adopted ASU 2020-04 as of June 30, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2020-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements.

On March 22, 2020, federal banking regulators issued an interagency statement that included guidance on their approach for the accounting for loan modifications in light of the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The guidance interprets current accounting standards and indicates that a lender can conclude that a borrower is not experiencing financial difficulty if short-term modifications are made in response to COVID-19, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant related to the loans in which the borrower is less than 30 days past due on its contractual payments at the time a modification is implemented. The agencies confirmed in working with the staff of the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs.

(11) REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

ASC 606 applies to all contracts with customers to provide goods or services in the ordinary course of business, except for contracts that are specifically excluded from its scope. The majority of the Company's revenues are composed of interest income, deferred loan fee accretion, premium/discount accretion, gains on sales of loans and investments, BOLI net earnings, servicing income on loans sold and other loan fee income, which are not within the scope of ASC 606. Revenue reported as service charges on deposits, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, merchant services fees, non-deposit investment fees and escrow fees are within the scope of ASC 606. All of the Company's revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 is recognized in non-interest income with the exception of gains on sales of OREO and gains on sales/disposition of premises and equipment, which are included in non-interest expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $948,000 in service charges on deposits, $1.36 million in ATM and debit card interchange fees, $64,000 in escrow fees, and $8,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales, all considered within the scope of ASC 606. For the nine months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $2.94 million in service charges on deposits, $3.76 million in ATM and debit card interchange fees, $243,000 in escrow fees, and $14,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales, all considered within the scope of ASC 606. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $858,000 in service charges on deposits, $1.07 million in ATM and debit card interchange fees, $81,000 in escrow fees, and $0 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales, all considered within the scope of ASC 606. For the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $3.14 million in service charges on deposits, $3.18 million in ATM and debit card interchange fees, $211,000 in escrow fees, and $13,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales, all considered within the scope of ASC 606.

If a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligation. Descriptions of the Company's revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606 are as follows:

•Service Charges on Deposits: The Company earns fees from its deposit customers from a variety of deposit products and services. Non-transaction based fees such as account maintenance fees and monthly statement fees are considered to be provided to the customer under a day-to-day contract with ongoing renewals. Revenue for these non-transaction fees are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Transaction-based fees such as non-sufficient fund charges, stop payment charges and wire fees are recognized at the time the transaction is executed, as the contract duration does not extend beyond the service performed.

•ATM and Debit Card Interchange Transaction Fees: The Company earns fees from cardholder transactions conducted through third-party payment network providers which consist of interchange fees earned from the payment networks

37

as a debit card issuer. These fees are recognized when the transaction occurs, but may settle on a daily or monthly basis.

•Escrow Fees: The Company earns fees from real estate escrow contracts with customers. The Company receives and disburses money and/or property according to the customer's contract. Fees are recognized when the escrow contract closes.

•Fee Income from Non-deposit Investment Sales: The Company earns fees from contracts with customers for investment activities. Revenues are generally recognized on a monthly basis and are generally based on a percentage of the customer's assets under management or based on investment solutions that are implemented for the customer.

Overview

Timberland Bancorp, Inc., a Washington corporation, is the holding company for Timberland Bank. The Bank opened for business in 1915 and serves consumers and businesses across Grays Harbor, Thurston, Pierce, King, Kitsap and Lewis counties, Washington with a full range of lending and deposit services through its 24 offices (including its main office in Hoquiam). At June 30, 2021, the Company had total assets of $1.74 billion, net loans receivable of $1.00 billion, total deposits of $1.52 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $203.49 million.  The Company's business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in the Bank. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including consolidated financial statements and related data, relates primarily to the Bank's operations.

The Bank is a community-oriented bank which has traditionally offered a variety of savings products to its retail and business customers while concentrating its lending activities on real estate secured loans. Lending activities have been focused primarily on the origination of loans secured by real estate, including residential construction loans, one- to four-family residential loans, multi-family loans and commercial real estate loans. The Bank also originates commercial business loans and other consumer loans.

The profitability of the Company’s operations depends primarily on its net interest income after provision for (recapture of) loan losses.  Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that the Company earns on interest-earning assets, which are primarily loans and investments, and interest expense, the amount that the Company pays on its interest-bearing liabilities, which are primarily deposits and borrowings (as needed).  Net interest income is affected by changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets, the interest earned on those assets, the volume and mix of interest-bearing liabilities and the interest paid on those interest-bearing liabilities. Management attempts to maintain a net interest margin placing it within the top quartile of its Washington State peers. Because the length of the COVID-19 pandemic and the efficacy of the extraordinary measures being put in place to address its economic consequences are unknown, including the 150 basis point reductions in the targeted federal funds rate in March 2020, until the pandemic subsides, the Company expects that its net interest income and net interest margin will be adversely affected.

The provision for (recapture of) loan losses is dependent on changes in the loan portfolio and management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan portfolio as well as prevailing economic and market conditions.  The allowance for loan losses reflects the amount that the Company believes is adequate to cover probable credit losses inherent in its loan portfolio. The Company did not record a provision for loan losses for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, primarily reflecting the improving economy and resulting decline in forecasted probable loan losses from COVID-19 during this period. The Company recorded a provision

39

for loan losses of $1.00 million and $3.20 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $3.70 million for the year ended September 30, 2020. The provisions recorded during the year ended September 30, 2020 were primarily due to forecasted probable loan losses reflecting the potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy.

The Company maintains its commitment to supporting its community and customers during these unprecedented times as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company remains focused on keeping its employees safe and the Bank running effectively to serve its customers. The Bank is managing branch access and occupancy levels in relation to cases and close contact scenarios, following governmental restrictions and public health authority guidelines. Some of the Company's employees are working remotely or have flexible work schedules, and protective measures within the Company's offices have been established to help ensure the safety of those employees who must work on-site.

The Company has worked with loan customers on loan deferral and forbearance plans. In response to requests from borrowers, the Company made payment deferral modifications (typically 90-day payment deferrals with interest continuing to accrue or scheduled to be paid monthly) on a number of loans. Nearly all of these borrowers have resumed making regular payments and only one commercial mortgage loan with a balance of $1.70 million remained on payment deferral status as of June 30, 2021. This COVID-19 related modification was not classified as a TDR at June 30, 2021 in accordance with the guidance of the CARES Act and related regulatory guidance. The Company will continue to work on forbearance plans with customers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic as needed going forward. The CARES Act also authorized the SBA to temporarily guarantee loans under a new loan program called the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"). As a qualified SBA lender, the Company was automatically authorized to originate PPP loans in April 2020 and originated $127.54 million in PPP loans through the program's initial conclusion in August 2020. The CAA 2021, which was signed into law on December 27, 2020, renewed and extended the PPP until May 31, 2021. As a result, the Company began originating PPP loans again in January 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $95.63 million in PPP loans to new and existing customers who are small to midsize businesses as well as non-profit organizations, independent contractors, and partnerships as allowed under PPP guidance.

Net income is also affected by non-interest income and non-interest expense.  For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021, non-interest income consisted primarily of service charges on deposit accounts, gain on sales of loans, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, an increase in the cash surrender value of BOLI, servicing income on loans sold and other operating income.  Non-interest income is also increased by net recoveries on investment securities and reduced by net OTTI losses on investment securities, if any.  Non-interest income is also decreased by valuation allowances on loan servicing rights and increased by recoveries of valuation allowances on loan servicing rights, if any.  Non-interest expense consisted primarily of salaries and employee benefits, premises and equipment, advertising, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, OREO and other repossessed asset expenses, postage and courier expenses, state and local taxes, professional fees, FDIC insurance premiums, loan administration and foreclosure expenses, data processing and telecommunication expenses, deposit operation expenses, amortization of CDI, and other non-interest expenses.  Non-interest expense in certain periods is reduced by gains on the sale of premises and equipment and gains on the sale of OREO. Non-interest income and non-interest expense are affected by the growth of the Company's operations and growth in the number of loan and deposit accounts.

Results of operations may be affected significantly by general and local economic and competitive conditions, changes in market interest rates, governmental policies and actions of regulatory authorities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company has identified several accounting policies that as a result of judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to an understanding of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.” That discussion highlights estimates that the Company makes that involve uncertainty or potential for substantial change. There have been no material changes in the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates as previously disclosed in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020

The Company’s total assets increased by $174.48 million, or 11.1%, to $1.740 billion at June 30, 2021 from $1.566 billion at September 30, 2020.  The increase in total assets was primarily due to increased cash and cash equivalents, and to a much lesser

40

extent, an increase in investment securities, partially offset by decreases in CDs held for investment and loans receivable. The increase in total assets was funded primarily by an increase in total deposits.

Net loans receivable decreased by $12.31 million, or 1.2%, to $1.002 billion at June 30, 2021 from $1.014 billion at September 30, 2020, primarily due to a decrease in SBA PPP loans and smaller decreases in several other loan categories. These decreases to net loans receivable were partially offset by a decrease to the undisbursed portion of construction loans in process, increases in multi-family and commercial mortgage loans, and smaller increases in several other loan categories.  

Total deposits increased by $164.25 million, or 12.1%, to $1.523 billion at June 30, 2021 from $1.358 billion at September 30, 2020, primarily due to increases in non-interest-bearing demand account balances, savings account balances, NOW checking account balances, and money market account balances. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in certificates of deposit account balances.

Shareholders’ equity increased by $15.86 million, or 8.5%, to $203.49 million at June 30, 2021 from $187.63 million at September 30, 2020.  The increase in shareholders' equity was primarily due to net income, partially offset by the payment of dividends to common shareholders.

A more detailed explanation of the changes in significant balance sheet categories follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents and CDs Held for Investment: Cash and cash equivalents and CDs held for investment increased by $154.95 million, or 40.8%, to $534.94 million at June 30, 2021 from $380.00 million at September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in total deposits, which exceeded the funds required for loan originations and used for purchases of investment securities.

Investment Securities:  Investment securities (including investments in equity securities) increased by $33.99 million, or 39.2%, to $120.76 million at June 30, 2021 from $86.77 million at September 30, 2020. This increase was primarily due to the purchase of additional mortgage-backed investment securities and U.S. Treasury securities during the nine months ended June 30, 202,1 as the Company placed a portion of its excess overnight liquidity into higher-earning investment securities during the period. These increases were partially offset by maturities, prepayments and scheduled amortization of other investment securities. For additional information on investment securities, see Note 2 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in “Item 1, Financial Statements.”

FHLB Stock: FHLB stock increased $181,000, or 9.4% to $2.10 million at June 30, 2021 from $1.92 million at September 30, 2020, due to purchases required by the FHLB from the increase in total assets.

Other Investments: Other investments consist solely of the Company's investment in the Solomon Hess SBA Loan Fund LLC, which was unchanged at $3.00 million at both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. This investment is utilized to help satisfy compliance with the Bank's Community Reinvestment Act investment test requirements.

Loans: Net loans receivable decreased by $12.31 million, or 1.2%, to $1.002 billion at June 30, 2021 from $1.014 billion at September 30, 2020.  The decrease was primarily due to a $31.19 million decrease in SBA PPP loans, a $7.28 million decrease in land loans, a $2.04 million decrease in construction loans, and a smaller decreases in several other loan categories. These decreases to net loans receivable were partially offset by a $10.23 million decrease in the undisbursed portion of construction loans in process, a $9.70 million increase in multi-family mortgage loans, a $5.32 million increase in commercial mortgage loans, and smaller increases in several other loan categories. The SBA PPP loan balances decreased primarily due to borrowers applying for forgiveness from the SBA and the loans being subsequently paid off by the SBA and was partially offset by new SBA PPP loans funded after the renewal of the program in December 2020.

Loan originations decreased by $12.72 million, or 2.6%, to $470.32 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $483.04 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.  The decrease in loan originations was primarily due to a decrease in the amount of SBA PPP loans funded. The Company continued to sell longer-term fixed rate one- to four-family mortgage loans for asset liability management purposes and to generate non-interest income. The Company also periodically sells the guaranteed portion of SBA loans.  Sales of fixed rate one- to four-family mortgage loans increased by $12.05 million, or 10.6%, to $126.19 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $114.14 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to increased refinance activity for one- to four-family loans due to the decrease in mortgage interest rates.

For additional information, see Note 4 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in “Item 1, Financial Statements.”

41

Premises and Equipment:  Premises and equipment decreased by $516,000, or 2.2%, to $22.52 million at June 30, 2021 from $23.04 million at September 30, 2020.  This decrease was primarily due to normal depreciation.

OREO (Other Real Estate Owned): OREO and other repossessed assets decreased by $893,000, or 85.0%, to $157,000 at June 30, 2021 from $1.05 million at September 30, 2020, primarily due to the sale of three land parcels.  At June 30, 2021, total OREO and other repossessed assets consisted of three land parcels totaling $157,000.

BOLI (Bank Owned Life Insurance): BOLI increased by $445,000 or 2.1%, to $22.04 million at June 30, 2021 from $21.60 million at September 30, 2020. The increase was due to net BOLI earnings, representing the increase in the cash surrender value of the BOLI policies.

Goodwill and CDI:  The recorded amount of goodwill remained unchanged at $15.13 million at both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. CDI decreased by $271,000, or 16.7%, to $1.35 million at June 30, 2021 from $1.63 million at September 30, 2020 due to scheduled amortization. For additional information on goodwill and CDI, see Note 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in “Item 1, Financial Statements.”

Deposits: Deposits increased by $164.25 million, or 12.1%, to $1.523 billion at June 30, 2021 from $1.358 billion at September 30, 2020. The increase in total deposits was primarily due to a $54.05 million increase in non-interest bearing demand account balances, a $53.05 million increase in NOW checking account balances, a $40.47 million increase in money market account balances, and a $35.23 million increase in savings account balances. These increases were partially offset by a $18.56 million decrease in certificates of deposit account balances.

Deposits consisted of the following at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

	June 30, 2021				September 30, 2020
	Amount		Percent		Amount		Percent

Total	$	1,522,652	100.0	%	$	1,358,406	100.0	%

FHLB Borrowings: The Company has short- and long-term borrowing lines with the FHLB with total credit available on the lines equal to 45% of the Bank's total assets, limited by available collateral. FHLB borrowings decreased to $5.00 million at June 30, 2021 from $10.00 million at September 30, 2020, and consisted of one $5.00 million borrowing, with a scheduled maturity in March 2025.

Shareholders’ Equity:  Total shareholders’ equity increased by $15.86 million, or 8.5%, to $203.49 million at June 30, 2021 from $187.63 million at September 30, 2020.  The increase was primarily due to net income of $21.57 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and $616,000 from the exercise of stock options, which was partially offset by dividend payments to common shareholders of $6.00 million and the repurchase of 19,588 shares of the Company's common stock for $527,000 (an average price of $26.89 per share). During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company adopted a new stock repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to 5% of the Company's outstanding shares, or 415,970 shares. The new stock repurchase program replaced the then existing stock repurchase program, which had 141,952 shares available to be repurchased upon expiration. For additional information, see Item 2 of Part II of this Form 10-Q.

Asset Quality: The non-performing assets to total assets ratio was 0.14% at June 30, 2021 compared to 0.27% at September 30, 2020. Total non-performing assets decreased by $1.80 million, or 43.2%, to $2.37 million at June 30, 2021 from $4.16 million at September 30, 2020. The decrease in non-performing assets was due to an $893,000 decrease in OREO and other repossessed assets, a $876,000 decrease in non-accrual loans, and a $30,000 decrease in non-accrual investment securities.

The Company received inquiries and requests from borrowers for some type of payment relief due to the COVID 19-pandemic. In response, the Company made payment deferral modifications (typically 90-day payment deferral with interest continuing to accrue or scheduled to be paid monthly) on a number of loans. All loans modified due to COVID-19 are separately monitored, and any request for continuation of relief beyond the initial modification is reassessed at that time to determine if a further modification should be granted and if a downgrade in risk rating is appropriate. At June 30, 2021, only one commercial mortgage loan with a balance of $1.70 million remained on payment deferral status. For additional information on these loan modifications, see Note 4 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in "Item 1, Financial Statements."

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Net income increased by $813,000, or 13.1%, to $7.02 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $6.21 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Net income per diluted common share increased by $0.09, or 12.2%, to $0.83 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $0.74 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The increases in net income and net income per diluted common share for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were primarily due to a $1.00 million decrease in the provision for loan losses, a $677,000 increase in net interest income, and a $48,000 decrease in non-interest expense, which were partially offset by a $589,000 decrease in non-interest income, and a $323,000 increase in the provision for income taxes.

Net income increased by $3.65 million, or 20.4%, to $21.57 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $17.91 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. Net income per diluted common share increased by $0.43, or 20.3%, to $2.55 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $2.12 for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The increases in net income and net income per diluted common share were primarily due to a $3.20 million decrease in the provision for loan losses, a $1.24 million increase in non-interest income, and a $386,000 increase in net interest income which were partially offset by a $255,000 increase in non-interest expense and a $916,000 increase in the provision for income taxes.

A more detailed explanation of the income statement categories is presented below.

Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased by $677,000, or 5.4%, to $13.16 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $12.48 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to a increase in the average balance of interest earning assets and a decline in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by a decrease in the yield of interest-earning assets.

Total interest and dividend income increased by $197,000, or 1.4%, to $13.87 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $13.67 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets partially offset by a decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets.

Average total interest-earning assets increased by $260.73 million, or 19.0%, to $1.64 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $1.38 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Average interest-bearing deposits in banks and CDs increased by $209.35 million, or 75.3%, average investment securities increased by $34.55 million, or 46.0%, and average loans receivable increased by $16.63 million, or 1.6%, between the periods. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the accretion of the purchase accounting fair value discount on loans acquired in the October 2018 acquisition of South Sound Bank ("South Sound Acquisition") increased interest income on loans by $84,000 compared to $170,000 for the quarter ended June 30 , 2020. The incremental accretion will change during any period based on the volume of prepayments, but is expected to decrease over time as the balance of the net discount declines. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, there was a total of $443,000 of pre-payment penalties, non-accrual interest and late fees collected, compared to $177,000 collected for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Partially offsetting the increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was a decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased to 3.39% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from 3.97% for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as market interest rates decreased following the 150 basis point decline in the targeted federal funds rate in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, to a range of 0.00% to 0.25% at June 30, 2021.

Also impacting the average yield and average interest-earning asset balances during the current quarter were SBA PPP loans originated. These PPP loans have a prescribed interest rate of 1.00% and are also subject to loan origination fees which are accreted into interest income over the life of each loan. For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, average PPP loans were $118.05 million and the Company recorded $293,000 in interest income and accreted $1.30 million in PPP loan origination fees into income. At June 30, 2021, PPP deferred loan origination fees of $3.31 million remain to be accreted into interest income during the remaining life of the loans

Total interest expense decreased by $480,000, or 40.4%, to $708,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $1.19 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 0.28% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from 0.55% for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $146.18 million, or 16.9%, to $1.01 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $866.46 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to increases in the average

44

balances of savings accounts, NOW checking accounts, and money market accounts partially offset by a decline in the average balance of certificates of deposit accounts.

As a result of these changes, the net interest margin ("NIM") decreased to 3.22% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from 3.63% for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Net interest income increased by $386,000, or 1.0%, to $38.75 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $38.36 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to a increase in the average balance on interest earning assets and a decline in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by a decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets.

Total interest and dividend income decreased by $808,000, or 1.9%, to $41.18 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $41.99 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to a decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased to 3.50% for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from 4.47% for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as market interest rates decreased following the 150 basis point decline in the targeted federal funds rate in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, to a range of 0.00% to 0.25% at June 30, 2021. Substantially offsetting the decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets was an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. Average total interest-earning assets increased by $315.20 million, or 25.2%, to $1.57 billion for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $1.25 billion for nine months ended June 30, 2020. Average interest-bearing deposits in banks and CDs increased by $201.75 million, or 89.2%, average loans receivable increased by $85.91 million, or 9.0%, and average investment securities increased by $27.18 million, or 38.4%, between the periods.

Total interest expense decreased by $1.19 million, or 32.9%, to $2.43 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $3.63 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 0.34% for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from 0.60% for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $158.99 million, or 19.6%, to $970.83 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $811.84 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, due primarily to increases in the average balances of NOW checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, and borrowings partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposit accounts.

As a result of these changes, the NIM decreased to 3.30% for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from 4.08% for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

Rate Volume Analysis

The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on the net interest income of the Company.   Information is provided with respect to the (i) effects on interest income attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate), (ii) effects on interest income attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume), and (iii) the net change (sum of the prior columns).  Changes in rate/volume have been allocated to rate and volume variances based on the absolute values of each (dollars in thousands).

Provision for Loan Losses: There was no provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to a $1.00 million provision for loans losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 due primarily to improvement in forecasted probable credit losses from the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy as of June 30, 2021. For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, there were net recoveries of $35,000 compared to net recoveries of $4,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Non-accrual loans decreased by $876,000 or 30.2%, to $2.03 million at June 30, 2021, from $2.91 million at September 30, 2020 and decreased by $986,000, or 32.7%, from $3.02 million at June 30, 2020. Total delinquent loans (past due 30 days or more) and non-accrual loans decreased by $806,000, or 21.5%, to $2.94 million at June 30, 2021, from $3.75 million at September 30, 2020 and decreased by $610,000, or 17.2%, from $3.55 million one year ago. 

The $95.63 million balance of SBA PPP loans was omitted from the Company's normal allowance for loan losses calculation at June 30, 2021, as these loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA, and management expects that most PPP borrowers will seek full or partial forgiveness of their loan obligations from the SBA within a short time frame, which will in turn reimburse the Bank for the amount forgiven.

There was no provision for loan losses for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a $3.20 million provision for loan losses for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 due primarily to forecasted probable credit losses reflecting the potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy as of June 30, 2020. For the nine months ended June 30, 2021, there were net recoveries of $55,000 compared to net recoveries of $4,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

The Company has established a comprehensive methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses.  On a quarterly basis, the Company performs an analysis that considers pertinent factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio.  These

48

factors include changes in the amount and composition of the loan portfolio, historic loss experience for various loan segments, changes in economic conditions, delinquency rates, a detailed analysis of impaired loans, and other factors to determine an appropriate level of allowance for loan losses. Impaired loans are subjected to an impairment analysis to determine an appropriate reserve amount to be allocated to each loan.  The aggregate principal impairment reserve amount determined at June 30, 2021 was $171,000 compared to $41,000 at September 30, 2020 and $63,000 at June 30, 2020. 

In accordance with GAAP, loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition were recorded at their estimated fair value, which resulted in a net discount to the loan's contractual amounts, of which a portion reflects a discount for possible credit losses. Credit discounts are included in the determination of fair value, and, as a result, no allowance for loan losses is recorded for acquired loans at the acquisition date. The discount recorded on the acquired loans is not reflected in the allowance for loan losses or related allowance coverage ratios. The remaining fair value discount on loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition was $499,000 at June 30, 2021. The Company believes that this should be considered by investors when comparing the Company's allowance for loan losses to total loans in periods prior to the South Sound Acquisition.

Based on its comprehensive analysis, management believes that the allowance for loan losses of $13.47 million at June 30, 2021 (1.33% of loans receivable and 663.8% of non-performing loans) was adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio based on an evaluation of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio at that date.  The allowance for loan losses was $13.41 million (1.31% of loans receivable and 461.8% of non-performing loans) at September 30, 2020 and $12.89 mil1ion (1.26% of loans receivable and 427.7% of non-performing loans) at June 30, 2020. While the Company believes that it has established its existing allowance for loan losses in accordance with GAAP, there can be no assurance that bank regulators, in reviewing the Company's loan portfolio, will not request the Company to significantly increase its allowance for loan losses. In addition, because future events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that the existing allowance for loan losses is adequate or that substantial increases will not be necessary should the quality of any loans deteriorate. A decline in national and local economic conditions, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors, could result in a material increase in the allowance for loan losses and may adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations. For additional information, see Note 4 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in “Item 1, Financial Statements.”

Non-interest Income: Total non-interest income decreased by $589,000, or 12.1%, to $4.27 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $4.86 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. This decrease was primarily due to a $534,000 decrease in gain on sales of loans, a $201,000 decrease in other non-interest income, a $179,000 increase in the valuation allowance on loan servicing rights, and smaller decreases in several other categories. These decreases to non-interest income were partially offset by a $294,000 increase in ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees and smaller increases in several other categories. The decrease in gain on sales of loans was primarily due to a decrease in the dollar amount of fixed-rate one- to four-family loans originated and sold during the current quarter and a decrease in the average pricing margin compared to the same period last year. The decrease in the other non-interest income category was related to a non-recurring $200,000 recovery (during the quarter ended June 30, 2020) of a previously charged off receivable acquired in the South Sound Acquisition. The valuation allowance on loan servicing rights was primarily due to an increase in the projected mortgage prepayment speeds as mortgage interest rates decreased during the quarter. The increase in ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees was primarily due to an increase in the dollar volume of debit card transactions.

Total non-interest income for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $1.24 million, or 9.9%, to $13.71 million from $12.47 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was primarily due to a $1.54 million increase in gain on sales of loans, a $577,000 increase in ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, and smaller increases in several other categories. These increases were partially offset by a $491,000 decrease in the other non-interest income category, a $193,000 decrease in services charges on deposits, and smaller decreases in several other categories. The increase in gain on sales of loans was primarily due to an increase in the dollar amount of fixed-rate one- to four-family loans originated and sold during the current period and an increase in the average pricing margin compared to the same period last year. The increase in ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees was primarily due to an increase in the dollar volume of debit card transactions. The decrease in the other non-interest income category was related to non-recurring recoveries of $483,000 (during the nine months ended June 30, 2020) of previously charged off receivables acquired in the South Sound Acquisition. The decrease in service charges on deposits was primarily due to a decrease in overdraft fee income.

Non-interest Expense:  Total non-interest expense decreased by $48,000, or 0.6%, to $8.61 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $8.66 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. This decrease was primarily due to an $82,000 decrease in premises and equipment expense and smaller decreases in several other categories, which were partially offset by smaller increases in several categories. The efficiency ratio for the current quarter improved to 49.43% from 49.96% for the comparable quarter one year ago.

49

Total non-interest expense increased by $255,000, or 1.0%, to $25.57 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $25.32 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to a $185,000 increase in FDIC insurance expense, a $166,000 increase in data processing and telecommunications expense, and smaller increases in several other categories, which were partially offset by a $149,000 improvement in OREO and other repossessed assets expense due primarily to gains on the sale of OREO and smaller decreases in several categories. The increase in FDIC insurance expense was primarily due to an assessment credit which reduced the expense in the comparable period in 2020. The increase in data processing and telecommunications expense was primarily due to the addition of several technology products and increased processing volumes. The efficiency ratio for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 improved to 48.75% from 49.81% for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

Provision for Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes increased by $323,000, or 22.1%, to $1.79 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from $1.46 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The provision for income tax increased by $916,000, or 20.8%, to $5.32 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from $4.40 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. These increases in the provision for income taxes were primarily due to higher income before income taxes. The Company's effective income tax rate was 20.27% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and 19.06% for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The Company's effective tax rate was 19.79% for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 19.73% for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

Liquidity

The Company’s primary sources of funds are customer deposits, proceeds from principal and interest payments on loans, the sale of loans, maturing investment securities, maturing CDs held for investment and FHLB borrowings (if needed).  While maturities and the scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

Liquidity management is both a short and long-term responsibility of the Bank’s management.  The Bank adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon management’s assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) projected loan sales, (iii) expected deposit flows, and (iv) yields available on interest-bearing deposits.  Excess liquidity is invested generally in interest-bearing overnight deposits and other short-term investments.

The Bank generally maintains sufficient cash and short-term investments to meet short-term liquidity needs.  At June 30, 2021, the Bank’s regulatory liquidity ratio (net cash, and short-term and marketable assets, as a percentage of net deposits and short-term liabilities) was 38.48%.

The Company’s total cash and cash equivalents and CDs held for investment increased by $154.95 million, or 40.8%, to $534.94 million at June 30, 2021 from $380.00 million at September 30, 2020. If the Bank requires funds that exceed its ability to generate them internally, it has additional borrowing capacity with the FHLB, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco ("FRB") and Pacific Coast Bankers' Bank ("PCBB"). At June 30, 2021, the Bank maintained an uncommitted credit facility with the FHLB that provided for immediately available borrowings up to an aggregate amount equal to 45% of total assets, limited by available collateral. At June 30, 2021, the Bank had $5.00 million in FHLB borrowings outstanding and $402.02 million available for additional FHLB borrowings. Additionally, the Bank maintains a short-term borrowing line with the FRB with available total credit based on eligible collateral.  At June 30, 2021, the Bank had $65.41 million available for borrowings with the FRB and there was no outstanding balance on this borrowing line. The Bank also maintains a $50.00 million overnight borrowing line with PCBB. At June 30, 2021, the Bank did not have an outstanding balance on this borrowing line.

The Bank’s primary investing activity is the origination of one- to four-family mortgage loans, commercial mortgage loans, construction loans, consumer loans, and commercial business loans.  At June 30, 2021, the Bank had loan commitments totaling $148.29 million and undisbursed construction loans in process totaling $90.33 million.  The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments.  CDs that are scheduled to mature in less than one year from June 30, 2021 totaled $87.95 million.

Capital Resources

The Bank, as a state-chartered, federally insured savings bank, is subject to the capital requirements established by the FDIC. Under the FDIC's capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weighting and other factors.

Based on its capital levels at June 30, 2021, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements as of that date. Consistent with the Bank's goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, it is the Bank's policy to maintain a "well-capitalized" status under the regulatory capital categories of the FDIC. Based on capital levels at June 30, 2021, the Bank was considered to be "well-capitalized" under applicable regulatory requirements. Management monitors the capital levels to provide for current and future business opportunities and to maintain the Bank's "well-capitalized" status.

The following table compares the Bank’s actual capital amounts at June 30, 2021 to its minimum regulatory capital requirements at that date (dollars in thousands):

	Actual			Regulatory Minimum To Be “Adequately Capitalized”			To Be “Well Capitalized” Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions
	Amount	Ratio		Amount	Ratio		Amount	Ratio
Leverage Capital Ratio:
Tier 1 capital	$185,369	10.87	%	$68,190	4.00	%	$85,238	5.00	%
Risk-based Capital Ratios:
Common equity tier 1 capital	185,369	20.90		39,912	4.50		57,651	6.50
Tier 1 capital	185,369	20.90		53,216	6.00		70,955	8.00
Total capital	196,489	22.15		70,955	8.00		88,693	10.00

In addition to the minimum common equity Tier 1 ("CET1"), Tier 1 and total capital ratios, the Bank is required to maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional CET1 capital greater than 2.5% of risk-weighted assets above the required minimum levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses based on percentages of retained income that could be utilized for such actions. At June 30, 2021, the Bank's CET1 capital exceeded the required capital conservation buffer.

Timberland Bancorp, Inc. is a bank holding company registered with the Federal Reserve. Bank holding companies are subject to capital adequacy requirements of the Federal Reserve under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and the regulations of the Federal Reserve. For a bank holding company with less than $3.0 billion in assets (as of June 30th of the preceding year), the capital guidelines apply on a bank only basis, and the Federal Reserve expects the holding company's subsidiary bank to be well capitalized under the prompt corrective action regulations. If Timberland Bancorp, Inc. were subject to regulatory guidelines for bank holding companies with $3.0 billion or more in assets, at June 30, 2021, Timberland Bancorp, Inc. would have exceeded all regulatory requirements. The following table presents for informational purposes the regulatory capital ratios for Timberland Bancorp, Inc. as of June 30, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

	Actual
	Amount	Ratio
Leverage Capital Ratio:
Tier 1 capital	$188,406	11.03	%

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There were no material changes in information concerning market risk from the information provided in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company’s senior management as of the end of the period covered by this report.  The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2021 the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

(b)Changes in Internal Controls:  There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  The Company continued, however, to implement suggestions from its internal auditor and independent auditors to strengthen existing controls.  The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud.  A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns in controls or procedures can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.  The design of any control procedure is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; as over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II.   OTHER INFORMATION

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended by ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10 and ASU 2019-11. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred losses methodology with a current expected losses methodology with respect to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and

other receivables, loans, held to maturity investment securities and off-balance sheet commitments. In addition, ASU 2016-13 requires credit losses relating to available for sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction of the carrying amount. ASU 2016-13 also changes the accounting for purchased credit-impaired securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 retains many of the current disclosure requirements in GAAP and expands certain disclosure requirements. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Upon adoption, the Company expects a change in the processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in the assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. In addition, the current policy for OTTI on investment securities available for sale will be replaced with an allowance approach. The Company is reviewing the requirements of ASU 2016-13 and has begun developing and implementing processes and procedures to help ensure that it is fully compliant with the amendments at the adoption date. At this time, the Company anticipates that the allowance for loan losses will increase as a result of the implementation of this ASU; however, until its evaluation is complete, the magnitude of the increase will be unknown.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill and eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) at the impairment testing date following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by

which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax

deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption ASU 2017-04 is not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The following disclosure requirements were removed from ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement: (1) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; (2) the policy for timing of transfers between levels; and (3) the valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU clarifies that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. This ASU adds the following disclosure requirements for Level 3 measurements: (1) changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for the recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period, and (2) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 effective October 1, 2020, and it did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The amendments in this ASU broaden the scope of ASC Subtopic 350-40 to include costs incurred to implement a hosting arrangement that is a service contract. The amendments align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred

in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The costs are capitalized or expensed depending on the nature of the costs and the project stage during which they are incurred, consistent with the accounting for internal-use software costs. The amendments in this ASU result in consistent capitalization of implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract and implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this ASU. ASU 2018-15 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2018-15 effective October 1, 2020, and it did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Simplifying the accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles

in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidelines. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020,

including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU applies to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or other rate references expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU permits an entity to make necessary modifications to eligible contracts or transactions without requiring contract remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. This ASU is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has not adopted ASU 2020-04 as of June 30, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2020-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements.

On March 22, 2020, federal banking regulators issued an interagency statement that included guidance on their approach for the accounting for loan modifications in light of the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The guidance interprets current accounting standards and indicates that a lender can conclude that a borrower is not experiencing financial difficulty if short-term modifications are made in response to COVID-19, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant related to the loans in which the borrower is less than 30 days past due on its contractual payments at the time a modification is implemented. The agencies confirmed in working with the staff of the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)  Basis of Presentation:  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Bank (the "Bank") (collectively, "the Company") were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements have been included.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2020 (“2020 Form 10-K”).  The unaudited consolidated results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2021.

(b)  Principles of Consolidation:  The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Service Corporation.   All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

(c)  Operating Segment:  The Company has one reportable operating segment which is defined as community banking in western Washington under the operating name, "Timberland Bank."

(d)  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(e)  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2021 presentation with no change to previously reported net income or total shareholders’ equity.

The Company has evaluated the investment securities in the above tables and has determined that the declines in their fair value are temporary.  The unrealized losses are primarily due to changes in market interest rates and spreads in the market for mortgage-related products. The fair value of these securities is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity dates and/or as the pricing spreads narrow on mortgage-related securities.  The Company has the ability and the intent to hold the investments until the fair value recovers.  Furthermore, as of June 30, 2021, management does not have the intent to sell any of the securities classified as available for sale for which the estimated fair value is below the recorded value and believes that it

is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell such securities before a recovery of cost (or recorded value if previously written down).

The Company bifurcates OTTI into (1) amounts related to credit losses which are recognized through earnings and (2) amounts related to all other factors which are recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). To determine the component of the gross OTTI related to credit losses, the Company compared the amortized cost basis of the OTTI security to the present value of its revised expected cash flows, discounted using its pre-impairment yield.  The revised expected cash flow estimates for individual securities are based primarily on an analysis of default rates, prepayment speeds and third-party analytic reports.  Significant judgment by management is required in this analysis that includes, but is not limited to, assumptions regarding the collectability of principal and interest, net of related expenses, on the underlying loans.  

The following table presents a summary of the significant inputs utilized to measure management’s estimates of the credit loss component on OTTI securities as of June 30, 2021 and 2020:

	Range				Weighted
	Minimum		Maximum		Average
June 30, 2021

During the nine months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a $5,000 net realized loss (as a result of investment securities being deemed worthless) on 12 held to maturity investment securities, all of which had been recognized previously as a credit loss. During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $65,000 net realized loss (as a result of investment securities being deemed worthless) on 9 held to maturity investment securities, all of which had been recognized previously as a credit loss.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

Goodwill and CDI

GOODWILL AND CDI

Goodwill is initially recorded when the purchase price paid in a business combination exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Goodwill is presumed to have an indefinite useful life and is analyzed annually for impairment.  The Company performs an annual review during the third quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine if the recorded goodwill is impaired. For purposes of goodwill impairment testing, the services offered through the Bank and its subsidiary are managed as one strategic unit and represent the Company's only reporting unit.

The annual goodwill impairment test begins with a qualitative assessment of whether it is "more likely than not" that the reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount. If an entity concludes that it is not "more likely than not" that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it need not perform a two-step impairment test. If the Company's qualitative assessment concluded that it is "more likely than not" that the fair value of its reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it must perform the two-step impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of

goodwill impairment loss to be recognized, if any. The first step of the goodwill impairment test compares the estimated fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, or the book value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit equals or exceeds its book value, goodwill is considered not impaired, and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary.

The second step, if necessary, measures the amount of goodwill impairment loss to be recognized. The reporting unit must determine fair value for all assets and liabilities, excluding goodwill. The net of the assigned fair value of assets and liabilities is then compared to the book value of the reporting unit, and any excess book value becomes the implied fair value of goodwill. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds the newly calculated implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount required to write-down the goodwill to the implied fair value.

Management's qualitative assessment takes into consideration macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost or margin factors, financial performance and share price of the Company's common stock. The Company performed its fiscal year 2021 goodwill impairment test during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Based on this assessment, the Company determined that it is not "more likely than not" that the Company's fair value is less than its carrying amount, and, therefore goodwill was determined not to be impaired at May 31, 2021.

A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of goodwill impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include, among others: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a sustained, significant decline in the Company's stock price and market capitalization; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; adverse assessment or action by a regulator; and unanticipated competition. Any change in these indicators could have a significant negative impact on the Company's financial condition, impact the goodwill impairment analysis or cause the Company to perform a goodwill impairment analysis more frequently than once per year.

As of June 30, 2021, management believes that there have been no events or changes in the circumstances since May 31, 2021 that would indicate a potential impairment of goodwill. No assurances can be given, however, that the Company will not record an impairment loss on goodwill in the future. If adverse economic conditions or decreases in the Company's stock price and market capitalization as a result of the novel coronavirus of 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic were to be deemed sustained rather then temporary, it may significantly affect the fair value of the Company's goodwill and may trigger impairment charges. Any impairment charge could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. The recorded amount of goodwill at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 remained unchanged at $15.13 million.

CDI represents the future economic benefit of the potential cost savings from acquiring core deposits as part of a business combination compared to the cost of alternative funding sources. CDI is amortized to non-interest expense using an accelerated method based on an estimated runoff of related deposits over a period of ten years. CDI is evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable, with any changes in estimated useful life accounted for prospectively over the revised remaining life. As of June 30, 2021, management believes that there have been no events or changes in the circumstances that would indicate a potential impairment of CDI.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company uses credit risk grades which reflect the Company’s assessment of a loan’s risk or loss potential.  The Company categorizes loans into risk grade categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors such as the estimated fair value of the collateral.  The Company uses the following definitions for credit risk ratings as part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of its loan portfolio:

Pass:  Pass loans are defined as those loans that meet acceptable quality underwriting standards.

Watch:  Watch loans are defined as those loans that still exhibit acceptable quality, but have some concerns that justify greater attention.  If these concerns are not corrected, a potential for further adverse categorization exists.  These concerns could relate to a specific condition peculiar to the borrower, its industry segment or the general economic environment.

Special Mention: Special mention loans are defined as those loans deemed by management to have some potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the payment prospects of the loan. 

Substandard:  Substandard loans are defined as those loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor, or of the collateral pledged.  Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt.  If the weakness or weaknesses are not corrected, there is the distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained.

Doubtful: Loans in this classification have the weaknesses of substandard loans with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make the collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. At both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, there were no loans classified as doubtful.

Loss:  Loans in this classification are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as bankable assets is not warranted.  This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this loan even though partial recovery may be realized in the future. At both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, there were no loans classified as loss.

The following tables present an analysis of loans by credit quality indicator and portfolio segment at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

Impaired Loans

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts (principal and interest) when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential mortgage loans and consumer loans, may be collectively evaluated for impairment. When a loan has been identified as being impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured by using discounted cash flows, except when, as an alternative, the current estimated fair value of the collateral (reduced by estimated costs to sell, if applicable) or observable market price is used. The valuation of real estate collateral is subjective in nature and may be adjusted in future periods because of changes in economic conditions.  Management considers third-party appraisals, as well as independent fair market value assessments from realtors or persons involved in selling real estate, in determining the estimated fair value of particular properties.  In addition, as certain of these third-party appraisals and independent fair market value assessments are only updated periodically, changes in the values of specific properties may have occurred subsequent to the most recent appraisals.  Accordingly, the amounts of any such potential changes and any related adjustments are generally recorded at the time that such information is received. When the estimated net realizable value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest and net deferred loan origination fees or costs), impairment is recognized by creating or adjusting an allocation of the allowance for loan losses, and uncollected accrued interest is reversed against interest income. If ultimate collection of principal is in doubt, all cash receipts on impaired loans are applied to reduce the principal balance. The categories of non-accrual loans and impaired loans overlap, although they are not identical.  

The following table is a summary of information related to impaired loans by portfolio segment as of June 30, 2021 and for the three and nine months then ended (dollars in thousands):

(1) For the year ended September 30, 2020.

A troubled debt restructured loan ("TDR") is a loan for which the Company, for reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that the Company would not otherwise consider.  Examples of such concessions include, but are not limited to: a reduction in the stated interest rate; an extension of the maturity at an interest rate below current market rates; a reduction in the face amount of the debt; a reduction in the accrued interest; or re-amortizations, extensions, deferrals and renewals.  TDRs are considered impaired and are individually evaluated for impairment.  TDRs are classified as non-accrual (and considered to be non-performing) unless they have been performing in accordance with modified terms for a period of at least six months. The Company had $2.57 million and $3.07 million in TDRs included in impaired loans at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively, and had no commitments at these dates to lend additional funds on these loans.  There was no allowance for loan losses allocated to TDRs at June 30, 2021, and, at September 30, 2020, there was $3,000 in allowance for loan losses allocated to TDRs. There were no TDRs for which there was a payment default within the first 12 months of the modification during the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 signed into law on March 27, 2020 ("CARES Act") provided guidance around the modification of loans as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which outlined, among other criteria, that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis to borrowers who were current as defined under the CARES Act prior to any relief, are not TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers are considered current under the CARES Act and related regulatory guidance if they are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 ("CAA 2021") was signed into law. Among other purposes, this act provides coronavirus emergency response and relief, including extending relief offered under the CARES Act related to restructured loans as a result of COVID-19 through January 1, 2022 or 60 days after the end of the the national emergency declared by the President, whichever is earlier.

In response to requests from borrowers, the Company made payment deferral modifications (typically 90-day payment deferrals with interest continuing to accrue or scheduled to be paid monthly) on a number of loans. Nearly all of these borrowers had resumed making payments as of June 30, 2021, and as of that date, only one loan with a balance of $1.70 million remained on deferral status under a COVID-19 loan modification forbearance agreement. Loan modifications in accordance with the CARES Act and related regulatory guidance are still subject to an evaluation in regard to determining whether or not a loan is deemed to be impaired. See Note 10 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

The following tables set forth information with respect to total COVID-19 loan modifications, on deferral status, as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

LEASES

The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standard Board's ("FASB's") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842, Leases ("ASC 842") on October 1, 2019 and began recording operating lease liabilities and operating lease ROU assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has operating leases for three retail bank branch offices. The ROU assets totaled $2.89 million at October 1, 2019. The Company's leases have remaining lease terms of sixteen months to eleven years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to five years.

The components of lease cost (included in the premises and equipment expense category in the consolidated statements of income) are as follows for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (dollars in thousands):

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Net Income Per Common Share

NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period without considering any dilutive items.  Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents for items that are dilutive, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the treasury stock method at the average share price for the Company’s common stock during the period.  Common stock equivalents arise from the assumed conversion of outstanding stock options to purchase common stock.  

Information regarding the calculation of basic and diluted net income per common share for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

Stock Compensation Plans

STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS Under the Company’s 2003 Stock Option Plan, the Company was able to grant options for up to 300,000 shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors and directors emeriti.  Under the Company's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company is able to grant options and awards of restricted stock (with or without performance measures) for up to 352,366 shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors and directors emeriti. Under the Company's 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, which was approved by shareholders on January 28, 2020, the Company is able to grant options and awards or restricted stock (with or

without performance measures) for up to 350,000 shares of common stock, of which 300,000 shares are reserved to be awarded to employees, including officers, and 50,000 shares are reserved to be awarded to directors and directors emeriti.  Shares issued may be purchased in the open market or may be issued from authorized and unissued shares.  The exercise price of each option equals the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Generally, options and restricted stock vest in 20% annual installments on each of the five anniversaries from the date of the grant, and options generally have a maximum contractual term of ten years from the date of grant. At June 30, 2021, there were 29,926 shares of common stock available which may be awarded as options or restricted stock pursuant to future grant under the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. At June 30, 2021, there were 298,500 shares of common stock available which may be awarded as options or restricted stock pursuant to future grant under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined under GAAP as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of three levels. These levels are:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The Company's assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of investment securities available for sale and investments in equity securities. The estimated fair values of MBS are based upon market prices of similar securities or observable inputs (Level 2). The estimated fair values of mutual funds are based upon quoted market prices (Level 1).

The Company had no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. The Company's assets measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Total	$	977	$	57,907	$	—	$	58,884

There were no transfers among Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended September 30, 2020.

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with GAAP.  These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market value that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period.

The Company uses the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value on a non-recurring basis:

Impaired Loans: The estimated fair value of impaired loans is calculated using the collateral value method or on a discounted cash flow basis.  The specific reserve for collateral dependent impaired loans is based on the estimated fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell, if applicable.  In some cases, adjustments are made to the appraised values due to various factors including age of the appraisal, age of comparables included in the appraisal and known changes in the market and in the collateral. Such adjustments may be significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Investment Securities Held to Maturity: The estimated fair value of investment securities held to maturity is based upon the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the investment security.  Such assumptions include quoted market prices (Level 1), market prices of similar securities or observable inputs (Level 2) and unobservable inputs such as dealer quotes, discounted cash flows or similar techniques (Level 3).

OREO and Other Repossessed Assets, net:  OREO and other repossessed assets are recorded at estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell.  Estimated fair value is generally determined by management based on a number of factors, including third-party appraisals of estimated fair value in an orderly sale.  Estimated costs to sell are based on standard market factors.  The valuation of OREO and other repossessed assets is subject to significant external and internal judgment (Level 3).

The following table summarizes the balances of assets measured at estimated fair value on a non-recurring basis at June 30, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

Total	$	—	$	8	$	1,741

The following table presents quantitative information about Level 3 fair value measurements for financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

	Estimated Fair Value		Valuation Technique(s)	Unobservable Input(s)	Range
Impaired loans	$	691	Market approach	Appraised value less estimated selling costs	NA
OREO and other repossessed assets	$	1,050	Market approach	Lower of appraised value or listing price less estimated selling costs	NA

GAAP requires disclosure of estimated fair values for certain financial instruments. Such estimates are subjective in nature, and significant judgment is required regarding the risk characteristics of various financial instruments at a discrete point in time. Therefore, such estimates could vary significantly if assumptions regarding uncertain factors were to change. In addition, as the Company normally intends to hold the majority of its financial instruments until maturity, it does not expect to realize many of the estimated amounts disclosed. The disclosures also do not include estimated fair value amounts for certain items which are not defined as financial instruments but for which may have significant value. The Company does not believe that it would be practicable to estimate a representative fair value for these types of items as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. Because GAAP excludes certain items from fair value disclosure requirements, any aggregation of the fair value amounts presented would not represent the underlying value of the Company. Additionally, in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses the exit price notion in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The recorded amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments were as follows as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

ASC 606 applies to all contracts with customers to provide goods or services in the ordinary course of business, except for contracts that are specifically excluded from its scope. The majority of the Company's revenues are composed of interest income, deferred loan fee accretion, premium/discount accretion, gains on sales of loans and investments, BOLI net earnings, servicing income on loans sold and other loan fee income, which are not within the scope of ASC 606. Revenue reported as service charges on deposits, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, merchant services fees, non-deposit investment fees and escrow fees are within the scope of ASC 606. All of the Company's revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 is recognized in non-interest income with the exception of gains on sales of OREO and gains on sales/disposition of premises and equipment, which are included in non-interest expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $948,000 in service charges on deposits, $1.36 million in ATM and debit card interchange fees, $64,000 in escrow fees, and $8,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales, all considered within the scope of ASC 606. For the nine months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $2.94 million in service charges on deposits, $3.76 million in ATM and debit card interchange fees, $243,000 in escrow fees, and $14,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales, all considered within the scope of ASC 606. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $858,000 in service charges on deposits, $1.07 million in ATM and debit card interchange fees, $81,000 in escrow fees, and $0 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales, all considered within the scope of ASC 606. For the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $3.14 million in service charges on deposits, $3.18 million in ATM and debit card interchange fees, $211,000 in escrow fees, and $13,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales, all considered within the scope of ASC 606.

If a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligation. Descriptions of the Company's revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606 are as follows:

•Service Charges on Deposits: The Company earns fees from its deposit customers from a variety of deposit products and services. Non-transaction based fees such as account maintenance fees and monthly statement fees are considered to be provided to the customer under a day-to-day contract with ongoing renewals. Revenue for these non-transaction fees are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Transaction-based fees such as non-sufficient fund charges, stop payment charges and wire fees are recognized at the time the transaction is executed, as the contract duration does not extend beyond the service performed.

•ATM and Debit Card Interchange Transaction Fees: The Company earns fees from cardholder transactions conducted through third-party payment network providers which consist of interchange fees earned from the payment networks

as a debit card issuer. These fees are recognized when the transaction occurs, but may settle on a daily or monthly basis.

•Escrow Fees: The Company earns fees from real estate escrow contracts with customers. The Company receives and disburses money and/or property according to the customer's contract. Fees are recognized when the escrow contract closes.

•Fee Income from Non-deposit Investment Sales: The Company earns fees from contracts with customers for investment activities. Revenues are generally recognized on a monthly basis and are generally based on a percentage of the customer's assets under management or based on investment solutions that are implemented for the customer.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Jun. 30, 2021

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation:  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Bank (the "Bank") (collectively, "the Company") were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements have been included.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2020 (“2020 Form 10-K”).  The unaudited consolidated results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2021.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation:  The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Service Corporation.   All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Operating Segment

Operating Segment:  The Company has one reportable operating segment which is defined as community banking in western Washington under the operating name, "Timberland Bank."

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2021 presentation with no change to previously reported net income or total shareholders’ equity.
