NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Critical Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of business - First Northwest Bancorp, a Washington corporation ("First Northwest"), became the holding company of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles ("First Fed" or the "Bank") on January 29, 2015, upon completion of the Bank's conversion from a mutual to stock form of organization (the "Conversion"). First Northwest and the Bank are collectively referred to as the "Company." In connection with the Conversion, the Company issued an aggregate of 12,167,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $10.00 per share for gross proceeds of $121.7 million. An additional 933,360 shares of Company common stock and $400,000 in cash were contributed to the First Federal Community Foundation ("Foundation"), a charitable foundation that was established in connection with the Conversion, resulting in the issuance of a total of 13,100,360 shares. The Company received $117.6 million in net proceeds from the stock offering of which $58.4 million were contributed to the Bank upon Conversion.

Pursuant to the Bank's Plan of Conversion (the "Plan") adopted by its Board of Directors, and as approved by its members, the Company established an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP"). On December 18, 2015, the ESOP completed its open market purchases, with funds borrowed from the Company, of 8% of the common stock issued in the Conversion for a total of 1,048,029 shares.

First Northwest's business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in First Fed. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including the consolidated unaudited financial statements and related data, relates primarily to the Bank.

The Bank is a community-oriented financial institution providing commercial and consumer banking services to individuals and businesses in Western Washington State with offices in Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, King, and Whatcom counties. These services include deposit and lending transactions that are supplemented with borrowing and investing activities.

Basis of presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods.

In preparing the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to a determination of the allowance for loan losses ("ALLL"), fair value of financial instruments, and deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Northwest and its wholly owned subsidiary, First Fed. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Subsequent Events - The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure and has included additional information where appropriate. See Note 10 for additional information.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 simplifies various aspects related to accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The standard also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)-Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction between accounting standards related to equity securities, equity method investments, and certain derivatives including accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. The ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Loss, which updates the guidance on recognition and measurement of credit losses for financial assets. The new requirements, known as the current expected credit loss model (CECL) will require entities to adopt an impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Upon adoption, the Company will change processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in 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 accounting policy and procedures for other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities available for sale will be replaced with an allowance approach.

Additional updates were issued in ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 825), Financial Instruments. This ASU clarifies and improves guidance related to the previously issued standards on credit losses, hedging and recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The amendments provide entities with various measurement alternatives and policy elections related to accounting for credit losses and accrued interest receivable balances. Entities are also able to elect a practical expedient to separately disclose the total amount of accrued interest included in the amortized cost basis as a single balance to meet certain disclosure requirements. The amendments clarify that the estimated allowance for credit losses should include all expected recoveries of financial assets and trade receivables that were previously written off and expected to be written off. The amendments also allow entities to use projections of future interest rate environments when using a discounted cash flow method to measure expected credit losses on variable-rate financial instruments.

In addition, new updates were issued through ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This amendment allows entities to elect the fair value option on certain financial instruments. On adoption, an entity is allowed to irrevocably elect the fair value option on an instrument-by-instrument basis. This alternative is available for all instruments in the scope of Subtopic 326-20 except for existing held-to-maturity debt securities. If an entity elects the fair value option, the difference between the instrument’s fair value and carrying amount is recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 which defers the effective date for this guidance for smaller reporting companies from the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 to the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company plans to defer adoption of CECL until January 1, 2023.

The Company is evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13, ASU No. 2019-04 and ASU No. 2019-05, and will closely monitor developments and additional guidance to determine the potential impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact the implementation of these ASUs will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company's internal project management team continues to review models, work with our third-party vendor, and discuss changes to processes and procedures to ensure the Company is fully compliant with the amendments at the adoption date.

Other Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments are effective for the Company as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company does not believe this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Reclassifications - Certain amounts in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current unaudited financial statement presentation with no effect on net income or shareholders' equity.

The Company may hold certain investment securities in an unrealized loss position that are not considered other than temporarily impaired ("OTTI"). At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 71 and 36 investment securities in an unrealized loss position, respectively.

We believe that the unrealized losses on our investment securities relate principally to the general change in interest rates, market demand, and related volatility, rather than credit quality, that has occurred since the initial purchase, and such unrecognized losses or gains will continue to vary with general interest rate level and market fluctuations in the future. Certain investments in a loss position are guaranteed by government entities or government sponsored entities. The Company does not intend to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position and believes it is not likely it will be required to sell these investments prior to a market price recovery or maturity.

There were no OTTI losses during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company maintains a general allowance for loan losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, including management’s continuing analysis of the factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, actual loan loss experience, and current and anticipated economic conditions. The reserve is an estimate based upon factors and trends identified by management at the time the financial statements are prepared.

Impaired loans. A loan is considered impaired when the Bank has determined that it may be unable to collect payments of principal or interest when due under the contractual terms of the loan. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for all loans in the portfolio except smaller balance homogeneous loans and certain qualifying troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") loans.

Credit quality indicator. Federal regulations provide for the classification of lower quality loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities, as substandard, doubtful, or loss; risk ratings 6, 7, and 8 in our 8-point risk rating system, respectively. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and pay capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values. Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

When the Bank classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it may establish a specific allowance to address the risk specifically or allow the loss to be addressed in the general allowance. General allowances represent loss allowances that have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities but that, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to certain problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as a loss, it is required to charge off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. Assets that do not currently expose the Bank to enough risk to warrant classification as substandard or doubtful but do possess identified weaknesses are designated as either watch or special mention assets; risk ratings 4 and 5 in our risk rating system, respectively. Loans not otherwise classified are considered pass graded loans and are rated 1-3 in our risk rating system.

Additionally, the Bank categorizes loans as performing or nonperforming based on payment activity. Loans that are more than 90 days past due and nonaccrual loans are considered nonperforming.

Troubled debt restructuring. A TDR is a loan to a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty that has been modified from its original terms and conditions in such a way that the Bank is granting the borrower a concession of some kind. First Fed has granted a variety of concessions to borrowers in the form of loan modifications. The modifications are generally related to the loan's interest rate, term and payment amount or a combination thereof.

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 (i.e., 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. This relief was extended under the Consolidated Appropriations Act 2021, to the earlier of 60 days after the COVID-19 pandemic national emergency termination date or January 1, 2022. Through  March 31, 2021, the Company had granted COVID-19 pandemic related temporary loan modifications on a total of 357 loans aggregating to $175.0 million, or 15.0% of total loans. 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.

Note 5 - Federal Taxes on Income

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. These calculations are based on many complex factors including estimates of the timing of reversals of temporary differences, the interpretation of federal income tax laws, and a determination of the differences between the tax and the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates and interpretations used in determining the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

The effective tax rates were 13.2% and 18.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the statutory maximum federal tax rate for 2021 and 2020 of 21%, largely due to the nontaxable earnings on bank owned life insurance and tax-exempt interest income earned on certain investment securities and loans. Additionally, a cumulative adjustment was recorded in the first quarter of 2021.

Note 6 - Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. In addition, nonvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the components used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Unallocated ESOP shares are not included as outstanding for either basic or diluted earnings per share calculations. As of March 31, 2021 and 2020, there were 727,859 and 780,785 shares in the ESOP that remain unallocated, respectively.

Note 7 - Employee Benefits

Change from Multi-employer to Single-employer Pension Plan

Effective March 23, 2021, the Company withdrew from the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan for Financial Institutions ("Pentegra DB Plan") and established the First Federal Defined Benefit Plan ("Bank DB Plan"). On March 23, 2021, all assets and liabilities were transferred from the Pentegra DB Plan to the newly established Bank DB Plan.

The Bank DB Plan is a defined benefit pension plan covering current and former employees. Benefits available under the plan are frozen. The plan provides defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary prior to the freeze. The Company uses December 31 as the measurement date for this plan. The initial measurement period will be March 23, 2021 – December 31, 2021.

The fair value of plan assets and projected benefit obligation on the March 23, 2021, Bank DB Plan adoption date were $14,705,000 and $14,197,000, respectively. A $2,717,599 cash contribution was made to the Pentegra DB Plan in March 2021 prior to the transition. A prior service cost of $1,745,519, net of tax, was included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Company's balance sheet at March 31, 2021. The prior service cost is expected to be amortized over 15 years.

Weighted-average assumptions used to determine pension benefit obligations at year-end include a 2.95% discount rate and a 0% rate of compensation increase. The weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic pension cost include 2.95% discount rate, 5.75% expected return on plan assets and a 0% rate of compensation increase. The 5.75% weighted average expected long-term rate of return is estimated based on current trends in similar plan assets, as well as projected future rates of returns on similar assets.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In connection with the Conversion, the Company established an ESOP for eligible employees of the Company and the Bank. Employees of the Company and the Bank who have been credited with at least 1,000 hours of service during a 12-month period are eligible to participate in the ESOP.

Pursuant to the Plan, the ESOP purchased shares in the open market with funds borrowed from First Northwest. The Bank will make contributions to the ESOP in amounts necessary to amortize the ESOP loan payable to First Northwest over a period of 20 years, bearing estimated interest at 2.46%. The loan is secured by shares purchased with the loan proceeds and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from the Bank's discretionary contributions to the ESOP and earnings on the ESOP assets. No principal or interest payment was made by the ESOP during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the average daily market prices of the shares and the shares become outstanding for EPS computations. The compensation expense is accrued monthly throughout the year. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings; dividends on unallocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt and accrued interest.

Note 8 - Stock-based Compensation

In May 2020, the Company's shareholders approved the First Northwest Bancorp 2020 Equity Incentive Plan ("2020 EIP"), which provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock shares or restricted stock units, and performance share awards to eligible participants through May 2030. The cost of awards under the 2020 EIP generally is based on the fair value of the awards on their grant date. The maximum number of shares that may be utilized for awards under the 2020 EIP is 520,000. As of  March 31, 2021, there were 336,480 total shares available for grant under the 2020 EIP, all of which are available to be granted as restricted shares.

As a result of the approval of the 2020 EIP, the First Northwest Bancorp 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2015 EIP") was frozen and no additional awards will be made. As of  March 31, 2021, there were no shares available for grant under the 2015 EIP. At this date, there are 189,500 shares granted under the 2015 EIP that are expected to vest subject to the 2015 EIP plan provisions.

There were 84,896 and 35,100 shares of restricted stock awarded, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. Awarded shares of restricted stock vest ratably over periods ranging from three to five years from the date of grant provided the eligible participant remains in service to the Company. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the restricted stock awards based on the fair value of the shares at the grant date amortized over the stated period.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, total compensation expense for the equity incentive plans was $404,000 and $304,000, respectively.

Included in the above compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, was directors' compensation of $91,000 and $85,000, respectively.

The following table provide a summary of changes in non-vested restricted stock awards for the period shown:

Note 9 - Fair Value Accounting and Measurement

Fair value is the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the Company’s principal market. The Company has established and documented its process for determining the fair values of its assets and liabilities, where applicable. Fair value is based on quoted market prices, when available, for identical or similar assets or liabilities. In the absence of quoted market prices, management determines the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities using valuation models or third-party pricing services, both of which rely on market-based parameters when available, such as interest rate yield curves, option volatilities and credit spreads, or unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs may be based on management’s judgment, assumptions, and estimates related to credit quality, liquidity, interest rates, and other relevant inputs.

Any changes to valuation methodologies are reviewed by management to ensure they are relevant and justified. Valuation methodologies are refined as more market-based data becomes available.

A three-level valuation hierarchy is used in determining fair value that is based on the transparency of the inputs used in the valuation process. The inputs used in determining fair value in each of the three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Either: (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; (ii) observable inputs, such as interest rates or yield curves; or (iii) inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs.

The hierarchy gives the highest ranking to Level 1 inputs and the lowest ranking to Level 3 inputs. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Qualitative disclosures of valuation techniques - Securities available for sale: where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified as Level 1. Level 1 instruments include highly liquid government bonds, securities issued by the U.S. Treasury, and exchange-traded equity securities.

If quoted prices are not available, management determines fair value using pricing models, quoted prices of similar securities, which are considered Level 2, or discounted cash flows. In certain cases, where there is limited activity in the market for an instrument, assumptions must be made to determine their fair value. Such instruments are classified as Level 3.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis - Assets are considered to be valued on a nonrecurring basis if the fair value measurement of the instrument does not necessarily result in a change in the amount recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Generally, nonrecurring valuation is the result of the application of other accounting pronouncements that require assets or liabilities to be assessed for impairment or recorded at the lower of cost or fair value.

Financial assets and liabilities other than investment securities are not traded in active markets. Estimated fair values require subjective judgments and are approximate. The estimates of fair value in the previous table are not necessarily representative of amounts that could be realized in actual market transactions, or of the underlying value of the Company. The methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as set forth below in accordance with ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, as amended by ASU 2016-01 requiring public entities to use the exit price notion effective January 1, 2018, are as follows:

Securities - Fair values for investment securities are primarily measured using information from a third-party pricing service. The pricing service uses pricing models based on market data. In the event that limited or less transparent information is provided by the third-party pricing service, fair value is estimated using secondary pricing services or non-binding third-party broker quotes.

Loans receivable, net - At March 31, 2021, the fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rate at which similar loans and leases would be made to borrowers with similar credit and for the same remaining maturities. Additionally, to be consistent with the requirements under FASB ASC Topic 820 for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the loans were valued at a price that represents the Company’s exit price or the price at which these instruments would be sold or transferred.

Mortgage servicing rights, net - The estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts when available. If no comparable contract is available, the estimated fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.

Note 10- Subsequent Event

On April 15, 2021, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement (the "Joint Venture Agreement") with the Bank, POM Peace of Mind, Inc. ("POM"), and Quin Ventures, Inc. ("Quin"). Subsequent to quarter end, the Company partially fulfilled its commitment to extend $15.0 million to Quin under a capital financing agreement and related promissory note and issued 29,719 shares of the Company's common stock to POM with a value of approximately $500,000.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact, are based on certain assumptions and are generally identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

• statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;

• statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;

• statements regarding the quality of our loan and investment portfolios;

• estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits; and

• statements concerning the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Bank's business and financial results and conditions.

These forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations of management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:

• the scope and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic;

• the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including on our credit quality and operations, as well as its impact on general economic conditions;

• legislative or regulatory changes, including actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic;

• the risks associated with lending and potential adverse changes in the credit quality of loans in our portfolio;

• a decrease in the market demand for loans that we originate for sale;

• our ability to control operating costs and expenses;

• whether our management team can implement our operational strategy including but not limited to our efforts to achieve loan and revenue growth;

• our ability to successfully execute on merger and/or acquisition strategies and integrate any newly acquired assets, liabilities, customers, systems, and management personnel into our operations and our ability to realize related cost savings within expected time frames;

• our ability to successfully execute on growth strategies related to our entry into new markets;

• our ability to develop user-friendly digital applications to serve existing customers and attract new customers;

• the use of estimates in determining fair value of certain of our assets, which estimates may prove to be incorrect and result in significant declines in valuation;

• changes in the levels of general interest rates, and the relative differences between short and long-term interest rates, deposit interest rates, our net interest margin and funding sources;

• increased competitive pressures among financial services companies, particularly from non-traditional banking entities such as challenger banks, fintech, and mega technology companies;

• our ability to attract and retain deposits;

• changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits, resulting in reduced demand for banking products and services;

• results of examinations of us by the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions, Department of Banks, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, or other regulatory authorities, which could result in restrictions that may adversely affect our liquidity and earnings;

• legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business;

• disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events, failures or interruptions in, or attacks on, our information technology systems or on the third-party vendors who perform several of our critical processing functions;

• any failure of key third-party vendors to perform their obligations to us; and

• other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technical factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services and other risks described elsewhere in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including this Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

34

Further, statements about the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Bank’s businesses and financial results and condition may constitute forward-looking statements and are subject to the risk that the actual effects may differ, possibly materially, from what is reflected in those forward-looking statements due to factors and future developments that are uncertain, unpredictable and in many cases beyond the Bank’s control, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic, and the direct and indirect impact of the pandemic on the Bank, its customers and third parties. These developments could have an adverse impact on our financial position and our results of operations.

Any of the forward-looking statements that we make in this report and in other statements we make may turn out to be wrong because of inaccurate assumptions we might make, because of the factors illustrated above or because of other factors that we cannot anticipate or predict. Any forward-looking statements are based upon management’s beliefs and assumptions at the time they are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this document or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those contained in such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Due to these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking statements discussed in this report might not occur, and you should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

General

First Northwest is a bank holding company which primarily engages in the business activity of its subsidiary, First Fed. First Fed is a community-oriented financial institution serving Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, Whatcom, and King counties in Washington State, through its Seattle lending center and ten full-service branches. Our business and operating strategy is focused on building sustainable earnings through employing experienced bankers, geographic expansion, diversifying our loan product mix, expanding our deposit product offerings that deliver value-added solutions, enhancing existing services and digital service delivery channels, and enhancing our infrastructure to support the changing needs and expectations of our customers.

We offer a wide range of products and services focused on the financial security and payment needs of the communities we serve. Lending activities include the origination of first lien one- to four-family mortgage loans, commercial and multi-family real estate loans, construction and land loans (including lot loans), commercial business loans, and consumer loans, consisting primarily of automobile loans as well as home equity loans and lines of credit. We continue to increase the origination of commercial real estate, multi-family real estate, construction, and commercial business loans. More recently we have increased our consumer loan portfolio through our manufactured home and auto loan purchase programs, in order to diversity our asset portfolio and increase interest income. We continue to originate one- to four-family residential mortgage loans and regularly sell conforming loans into the secondary market to increase noninterest income and manage interest rate risk. We also retain one- to four-family first and second lien loans in our portfolio to generate interest income. We offer traditional consumer and business deposit products, including transaction accounts, savings and money market accounts, and certificates of deposit for individuals, businesses, and nonprofit organizations. Deposits are our primary source of funds for lending and investing activities. We also borrow funds, typically from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, as a way to provide cost effective liquidity and manage interest rate risk.

35

First Northwest is affected by prevailing economic conditions as well as government policies and regulations concerning, among other things, monetary and fiscal affairs, housing and financial institutions. Deposit flows are influenced by several factors, including interest rates paid on competing time deposits, alternative investment options available to our customers, account maturities, the number and quality of our deposit originators, digital delivery systems, branding and customer acquisition, and the overall level of personal income and savings in the markets where we do business. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for funds, our credit policies, the number and quality of our lenders and credit underwriters, digital delivery systems, branding and customer acquisition, and regional economic cycles.

Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on our loans and investments and interest expense paid on our deposits and borrowings. Changes in levels of interest rates and cash flows from existing assets and liabilities affect our net interest income. A secondary source of income is noninterest income, which includes revenue we receive from providing products and services, including service charges on deposit accounts, mortgage banking income, interest rate swap fee income, earnings from bank-owned life insurance, investment services income, and gains and losses from sales of securities.

An offset to net interest income is the provision for loan losses, which represents the periodic charge to operations which is required to adequately provide for losses inherent in our loan portfolio through our allowance for loan losses. As credit metrics improve, such as a loan's risk rating, increased property values, improvements in the economic environment, or recoveries of amounts previously charged off are received, a recapture of previously recognized provision for loan losses may be added to net income.

Noninterest expenses we incur in operating our business consist of salaries and employee benefit costs, occupancy and equipment expenses, federal deposit insurance premiums and regulatory assessments, data processing expenses, marketing and customer acquisition expenses, expenses related to real estate and personal property owned, and other expenses.

Recent Developments. On March 22, 2021, the Company announced that First Fed has entered into an agreement with Sterling Bank and Trust of Southfield, Michigan to purchase its Bellevue, Washington branch, subject to applicable regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. The agreement includes the purchase of approximately $77.7 million in deposits as of the announcement date. First Fed anticipates closing the transaction by the end of the second quarter of 2021.

As discussed in more detail below under the subheading "Liabilities," on March 25, 2021, the Company issued $40.0 million in 3.75% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due 2031 to certain qualified institutional buyers and institutional accredited investors. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes for general corporate purposes.

On April 15, 2021, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement (the "Joint Venture Agreement") with the Bank, POM Peace of Mind, Inc. ("POM"), and Quin Ventures, Inc. ("Quin"). Under the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and POM have established Quin to develop a digital financial wellness platform that will offer personal financial services to the general public. Under a related Marketing and Banking Services Agreement, Quin will promote the services offered through the digital financial wellness platform and the Bank will provide banking services to the customers who utilize the platform. The Marketing and Banking Services Agreement sets forth the terms governing the parties' commercial and economic commitments and responsibilities, including the fees to be paid by the Bank to fund the costs of acquiring customers and the distribution of interchange fees. The Company also committed to extend $15.0 million to Quin under a capital financing agreement and related promissory note and issued 29,719 shares of the Company's common stock to POM with a value of approximately $500,000.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictive measures taken by governments, businesses and individuals caused unprecedented uncertainty, volatility and disruption in financial markets and in governmental, commercial and consumer activity in the United States and globally, including the markets that we serve. As initial restrictive measures were eased during 2020 and into 2021, the U.S. economy started to recover and with the availability and distribution of a COVID-19 vaccine, we anticipate continued improvements in commercial and consumer activity and the U.S. economy. As of March 31, 2021, the governor of Washington eased restrictions initially set in place, allowing businesses to increase capacities, but short of full capacity.

We recognize that our business and consumer customers are experiencing varying degrees of financial distress, which is expected to continue through the remainder of 2021, especially if new COVID-19 variant infections increase and new restrictions are mandated. Commercial activity has improved but has not returned to the levels existing prior to the outbreak of the pandemic, which may result in our customers’ inability to meet their loan obligations to us. In addition, the economic pressures and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in changes in consumer spending behaviors, which may negatively impact the demand for loans and other services we offer. Our borrowing base includes customers in industries such as hospitality; restaurant and food services; and lessors of commercial real estate to hospitality, restaurant, and retail establishments, all of which have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. At March 31, 2021, the Company’s exposure as a percent of the total loan portfolio to these industries was 4.4%, 0.2%, and 4.3%, respectively. We recognize that these industries may take longer to recover as consumers may be hesitant to return to full social interaction or may change their spending habits on a more permanent basis as a result of the pandemic. We continue to monitor these customers closely.

We have taken deliberate actions to ensure that we have the balance sheet strength to serve our clients and communities, including increases in liquidity and managing our assets and liabilities in order to maintain a strong capital position; however, future economic conditions are subject to significant uncertainty. Uncertainties associated with the pandemic include the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and any related variant infections, the availability and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines, and the impact on our customers, employees, vendors and the economy. While uncertainty still exists, we believe we are well-positioned to operate effectively through the present economic environment.

We continue to provide banking and financial services to our customers, with drive-thru access available at all our branch locations and in-person services available by appointment. Our branch locations are currently open and operating, having returned to normal business hours at the beginning of May 2021. In addition, we continue to provide access to banking and financial services through online banking, Interactive Teller Machines ("ITMs"), Automated Teller Machines ("ATMs"), and by telephone. We continue to take additional precautions within all our locations, including providing personal protection equipment and enhanced cleaning procedures, to ensure the safety of our customers and our employees.

36

We provided assistance to many small businesses applying for the SBA's Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") funding. As of March 31, 2021, we processed $32.4 million of loans for 307 customers through the current round of SBA PPP funding with an average loan amount of $106,000. We processed $32.2 million of loans for 515 customers through the initial round of SBA PPP funding during 2020 with an average loan amount of $63,000. Payments by borrowers on these loans can be deferred up to sixteen months after the note date, and interest, at 1%, will continue to accrue during the deferment period. Loans can be forgiven in whole or part (up to full principal and any accrued interest). We partnered with a third-party financial technology provider to assist our borrowers with the loan forgiveness application process. As of March 31, 2021, $16.6 million, or 51.4%, of the first-round loans were forgiven.

Critical Accounting Policies

There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies as disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020

Assets. Total assets increased to $1.74 billion at March 31, 2021 from $1.65 billion at December 31, 2020.

Total loans, excluding loans held for sale, increased $14.5 million to $1.16 billion at March 31, 2021, from $1.14 billion at December 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, auto and other consumer loans increased $10.9 million, with $7.3 million in purchases of manufactured home loans and $14.2 million in purchased auto loans offset by prepayment activity. One- to four-family residential loans decreased $14.0 million as prepayment of loans exceeded originations during the period. Commercial business loans decreased $17.2 million as newly funded PPP loans were offset by PPP forgiveness payments received during the period and participation in the Northpointe Bank Mortgage Participation Program decreased to $5.7 million at March 31, 2021, from $47.3 million at December 31, 2020. Competition for quality commercial credits remains; however, continuing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have reduced the demand for credit. 

Construction and land loans increased $33.7 million, or 27.2%, to $157.3 million at March 31, 2021, from $123.6 million at December 31, 2020. Our construction loans are geographically dispersed throughout Western Washington (with one loan in Oregon) and, as a result, are susceptible to risks that may vary depending on the nature and location of the project. We manage our construction lending by utilizing a licensed third-party vendor to assist us in monitoring our construction projects and intend to begin utilizing internal staffing to monitor certain projects, which we expect will enhance fee income related to these loans. We continue to monitor the projects currently in our portfolio to determine the impact of COVID-19 on completion. As of this point in time, we have no reason to believe that any of the projects in process will not be completed.

We monitor real estate values and general economic conditions in our market areas, in addition to assessing the strength of our borrowers, in order to prudently underwrite construction loans. We continually assess our lending strategies across all product lines and markets within which we do business in order to improve earnings while also prudently managing credit risk.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company originated $187.0 million of loans, of which $125.1 million, or 66.8%, were originated in the Puget Sound region, $47.1 million, or 25.2%, in the North Olympic Peninsula, $2.9 million, or 1.6%, in other areas throughout Washington State, and $11.9 million, or 6.4%, in Oregon. The Company purchased an additional $14.2 million in auto loans and $7.3 million in manufactured home loans during the three months ended March 31, 2021. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to acquire assets through wholesale channels in order to supplement our organic originations and increase net interest income.

Our allowance for loan losses increased $418,000, or 3.0%, to $14.3 million at March 31, 2021, from $13.8 million at December 31, 2020. The increase was due to a $500,000 loan loss provision, offset by net charge-offs of $82,000 for the three-month period. The provision is attributed to qualitative factor adjustments as well as to account for growth in the loan portfolio. We continue to monitor the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the anticipated impact is included in the qualitative factor adjustments. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans at both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was 1.2%.

Nonperforming loans decreased $138,000, or 6.1%, to $2.1 million at March 31, 2021, from $2.3 million at December 31, 2020, mainly attributable to improvements in nonperforming one- to four-family loans of $116,000 and multi-family loans of $284,000, offset by additions in auto and other consumer loans of $255,000. Nonperforming loans to total loans was 0.2% at both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans increased to 668.1% at March 31, 2021, from 609.2% at December 31, 2020.

At March 31, 2021, there were $2.0 million in restructured loans, of which $1.9 million were performing in accordance with their modified payment terms and returned to accrual status. Classified loans increased $6.6 million to $14.1 million at March 31, 2021, from $7.5 million at December 31, 2020 due to one deteriorating commercial real estate loan.

Net loan charge-offs are concentrated mainly in our indirect auto loan portfolio. We removed one of our indirect auto loan product offerings in 2020 to effectively eliminate new production and reduce future charge-off activity. We continue to monitor the program in order to prudently balance risk and return within the portfolio. We believe our allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb the known and inherent risks of loss in the loan portfolio as of March 31, 2021. As the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and response from Federal and State government remains to be seen, we continue to incorporate this into the qualitative factor related to the economy.

Investment securities increased $29.2 million, or 8.0%, to $393.5 million at March 31, 2021, from $364.3 million at December 31, 2020, due to the purchase of securities, normal payments and prepayment activity. Mortgage-backed securities totaled $114.2 million at March 31, 2021, or 29.0% of the investment securities portfolio, an increase during the year of $25.0 million, or 28.0%, from $89.3 million at December 31, 2020. Other investment securities, including municipal bonds and other asset-backed securities, were $279.3 million at March 31, 2021, or 71.0% of the total investment securities portfolio, an increase of $4.2 million from $275.0 million at December 31, 2020. The investment portfolio, including mortgage-backed securities, had an estimated projected average life of 7.5 years as of March 31, 2021, and 7.3 years as of December 31, 2020, and had an estimated average repricing term of 5.3 years as of March 31, 2021, and 5.0 years as of December 31, 2020, based on the interest rate environment at those times. The net change in unrealized gains (losses) on our municipal bonds and mortgage-backed investment securities declined $4.4 million during the first quarter of 2021 as a result of declining market values.

The investment portfolio was comprised of 48.0% in amortizing securities at both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The projected average life of our securities may vary due to prepayment activity, which, particularly in the mortgage-backed securities portfolio, is impacted by prevailing mortgage interest rates. Management maintains a focus on enhancing the mix of earning assets by originating loans as a percentage of earning assets; however, we continue to purchase investment securities as a source of additional interest income. For additional information, see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Liabilities. Total liabilities increased to $1.55 billion at March 31, 2021, from $1.47 billion at December 31, 2020, primarily due to an increase in deposits of $101.3 million and the issuance of subordinated debt of $40.0 million in March 2021.

Deposit balances increased 7.6%, to $1.43 billion at March 31, 2021, from $1.33 billion at December 31, 2020. There was a $66.1 million increase in money market accounts, a $34.9 million increase in transaction accounts, and a $21.7 million increase in savings accounts during the period while the balance of certificates of deposits decreased $21.5 million. The increase in deposits is in large part due to organic growth, the Federal government's continued response to the pandemic including stimulus payments, deposit of additional PPP funding, and deferrals of Federal tax payment due dates. We strategically increased noninterest-bearing and other core deposits to manage overall funding costs. In addition to collecting customer deposits, we utilize brokered certificates of deposit ("brokered CDs") as an additional funding source in order to manage our cost of funds, reduce our reliance on public funds deposits, and allow flexibility when competing on retail rates. At March 31, 2021, we had $85.9 million in brokered CDs included in the $287.2 million balance of certificates of deposit.

On March 25, 2021, the Company completed a private placement of $40.0 million of 3.75% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) to certain qualified institutional buyers and institutional accredited investors. The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Notes were approximately $39.3 million after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. The Notes have been structured to qualify as Tier 2 capital for the Company for regulatory capital purposes. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes and has provided $20.0 million to the Bank as Tier 1 capital.

Equity. Total shareholders' equity decreased $4.2 million to $182.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was due to an after-tax decline in unrealized gain on available-for-sale investments of $3.5 million and a $1.7 million adjustment in other comprehensive income reflecting the recognition of prior service cost related to the transfer out of participation in a multiemployer pension plan into a single employer plan. The Company recorded year-to-date net income of $3.1 million, partially offset by $2.2 million in repurchases of shares of common stock.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

General. Net income increased $2.2 million, or 257.4%, to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to net income of $873,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to an increase in net interest income after provision for loan losses compared to the same period in 2020 and a modest increase in noninterest income partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $4.1 million to $13.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This increase was mainly the result of an increase in average earning assets of $341.0 million. The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 19 basis points to 3.78% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to 3.97% for the same period in the prior year due to a decrease in reinvestment loan and investment securities rates.

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 0.40% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to 1.11% for the same period last year, due primarily to a decrease in rates on interest-bearing deposits of 67 basis points combined with a decrease in borrowing volume of $24.2 million and lower borrowing rates due to the restructure of long-term FHLB advances and declining rates on short-term advances. Total cost of funds decreased 63 basis points to 32 basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from 95 basis points for the same period in 2020. The net interest margin increased 37 basis points to 3.48% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from 3.11% for the same period in 2020.

Interest Income. Total interest income increased $2.7 million, or 22.2%, to $14.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from $12.0 million for the comparable period in 2020, primarily due to an increase in the average balances on interest-earning assets. Interest and fees on loans receivable increased $2.7 million, to $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from $9.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, related to an increase in the average balance of net loans receivable of $261.5 million compared to the prior year. Average loan yields decreased 9 basis points to 4.43% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Total interest-earning assets	$	1,549,316		3.78	%	$	1,208,314		3.97	%	$	2,654

Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased $1.4 million, or 55.3%, to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to a decrease in interest expense on deposits of $1.2 million resulting from a 67 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $242.9 million, or 28.6%, to $1.09 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from $849.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as we grew deposits in new and existing market areas. Additionally, the growth was supported by many of the Government programs put in place to support the economy during the COVID-19 pandemic.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, interest expense on cost of certificates of deposit decreased due to a decrease in the average balance of $19.8 million and a decrease of 99 basis points in the average rate paid, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. During the same period, the average balances of savings, transaction, and money market accounts increased $7.7 million, $46.4 million and $208.5 million, respectively. The average cost of all deposit products decreased to 0.27% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from 0.85% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, due in large part to the expiration of promotional rates and a shift in balances to transaction accounts. Borrowing costs decreased as the average cost of FHLB advances decreased 80 basis points from declining short-term borrowing rates and lower rates on a long-term advance restructure in addition to a decrease in the average balance of $24.2 million compared to the same period in 2020.

The following table details average balances, cost of funds and the change in interest expense for the periods shown:

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $500,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to growth in the loan portfolio, and was $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to the uncertainty in economic conditions created by the COVID-19 pandemic and growth in the loan portfolio.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the changes related to outstanding balances and changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

In the normal course of operations, First Fed engages in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in the financial statements. These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks. These transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Liquidity Management

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term and long-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, maturities and sales of securities, and borrowings from the FHLB. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are usually predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, calls of investment securities and borrowed funds, and prepayments on loans and investment securities are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition, which can cause those sources of funds to fluctuate.

Management regularly adjusts our investments in liquid assets based upon an assessment of expected loan demand, expected deposit flows, yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and the objectives of our interest-rate risk and investment policies.

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents followed by available for sale securities. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At March 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents totaled $99.3 million, and unpledged securities classified as available-for-sale with a market value of $284.0 million provided additional sources of liquidity. We pledged collateral to support borrowings from the FHLB of $433.0 million and have an established borrowing arrangement with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, for which available-for-sale securities with a market value of $24.4 million were pledged as of March 31, 2021.

At March 31, 2021, we had $569,000 in loan commitments outstanding, $222.6 million in undisbursed loans and standby letters of credit, including $162.6 million in undisbursed construction loan commitments.

46

Certificates of deposit due within one year as of March 31, 2021 totaled $184.1 million, or 64.1% of certificates of deposit with a weighted-average rate of 0.81%. We believe the large percentage of certificates of deposit that mature within one year reflects customers' hesitancy to invest their funds for longer periods as market interest rates have recently declined. If these maturing deposits are not renewed, however, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit, non-maturity deposits, and borrowings. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered as well as through sales and marketing efforts in the markets we serve. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on certificates of deposit. In addition, we believe that our branch network, and the general cash flows from our existing lending and investment activities, will provide us more than adequate long-term liquidity. For additional information, see the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and provides for its own liquidity. At March 31, 2021, the Company, on an unconsolidated basis, had liquid assets of $26.5 million. In addition to its operating expenses, the Company is responsible for paying dividends declared, if any, to its shareholders, funds paid for Company stock repurchases, and payments on subordinated notes held at the Company level. The Company has the ability to receive dividends or capital distributions from the Bank, although there are regulatory restrictions on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends.

Capital Resources

At March 31, 2021, shareholders' equity totaled $182.1 million, or 10.5% of total assets. Our book value per share of common stock was $17.86 at March 31, 2021, compared to $18.20 at December 31, 2020.

At March 31, 2021, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and was considered "well capitalized" under FDIC regulatory capital guidelines.

The following table provides the capital requirements and actual results for First Fed at March 31, 2021.

	Actual					Minimum Capital Requirements					Minimum Required to be Well-Capitalized
	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio
						(Dollars in thousands)
Tier I leverage capital (to average assets)	$	182,690		11.2	%	$	65,371		4.0	%	$	81,714		5.0	%
Common equity tier I (to risk-weighted assets)		182,690		15.1			54,340		4.5			78,491		6.5
Tier I risk-based capital (to risk-weighted assets)		182,690		15.1			72,453		6.0			96,604		8.0
Total risk-based capital (to risk-weighted assets)		197,281		16.3			96,604		8.0			120,755		10.0

In order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses, the Bank must maintain common equity tier 1 capital ("CET1") at an amount greater than the required minimum levels plus a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%.

Effect of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements and related financial data presented in this report have been prepared according to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, which require the measurement of financial and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation on our operations is reflected in increased operating costs and the effect that general inflation may have on both short-term and long-term interest rates. Unlike companies in many other industries, virtually all the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than do general levels of inflation. Although inflation expectations do affect interest rates, interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There has not been any material change in the market risk disclosures contained in First Northwest Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 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 (Principal Executive Officer), Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), and other members of the Company's management team as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 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 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, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission'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 March 31, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

The Company intends to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and to improve its controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that it may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning the Company's business. While the Company believes the present design of its disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve its goal, future events affecting its business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures. The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent every error or instance of 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; over time, controls 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

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is engaged in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, none of which are currently considered to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The disclosures below supplement the risk factors previously disclosed under Part I. Item 1A of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect the future results of operations of our customers and/or the market price of our stock.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to rapidly evolve, as do federal, state and local efforts to address it. Both the direct effects of the pandemic and the resulting United States governmental responses are of an unprecedented scope as it impacts both the health and the economy of our country and the world at large. No one can predict the extent or duration of the pandemic, or its effect on the markets that we serve. Further, the ongoing efforts and impact of the government in mitigating the health and the economic effects of the pandemic cannot currently be predicted, whether on our business or as to the economy as a whole. The pandemic has thus far resulted in significant volatility in international and United States markets, which could adversely affect the market price of our stock. To date, the pandemic has resulted in significant business disruption and volatility in the international and domestic markets, which has adversely affected the market price of our stock.

The Company continues to manage through uncertainties and complexities created by the pandemic. As an essential business, our employees have been able to work safely in our branch locations and over 70% of our workforce has the ability to work from home. However, the economic downturn in local markets we serve could result in increased credit risk associated with the loan portfolio to the extent that customers are unable to repay loans and meet their obligations, as well as adversely impacting our earnings. We believe our strong capital position will be important in managing through the effects of the pandemic.

Item 5. Other Information

COVID-19 Legislation and Regulation.

Governments at the federal, state, and local levels continue to take steps to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law, which included $350 billion in stimulus for small businesses under the SBA PPP, along with direct stimulus payments (i.e., "economic impact payments" or "stimulus checks") for many eligible Americans. Shortly thereafter, the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enforcement Act was signed into law and replenished funding to the SBA PPP and provided other spending for hospitals and virus testing. On June 5, 2020, the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act ("PPPFA") was enacted. Main provisions of the PPPFA extended the PPP loan repayment period from two to five years, extended the covered expense period from eight to 24 weeks, and lowered the percentage of forgiveness amount required to be used for eligible payroll costs to 60%. The PPPFA also extended the repayment start date until after the SBA finalized the application process for loan forgiveness. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, enacted in December 2020, included another $284 billion to fund an expansion of the SBA PPP, subject to certain changes in eligibility requirements and program design. Most recently, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 became law in March 2021 and provides for a $1.9 billion stimulus package that, among other financial aid measures, includes a new round of PPP funding with an application deadline of May 31, 2021.

Exhibit 10.3

Fiscal 2021 Officer Cash Incentive Plan

Objectives

The objectives of the First Federal (the “Bank”) Fiscal 2021 Cash Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) are to reward and incent designated officers for their contributions to the performance and success of the Bank. The Plan seeks to reward financial performance which the Management Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) determines to be critical to the Bank’s growth and profitability. This document provides an overview of the elements and features of the Plan. The document operates in conjunction with the Plan participation agreement that is entered into by each employee who is designated for participation in the Plan.

The key objectives for the Plan are as follows:

● Communicate expectations in terms of the Bank’s business goals and results;

● Recognize and reward achievement of the Bank’s short-term performance objectives;

● Motivate and reward high performance;

● Attract and retain talent needed for the Bank’s success;

● Encourage teamwork and collaboration; and

● Ensure incentives are appropriately risk-balanced (i.e., do not unintentionally motivate inappropriate risk taking).

Plan Year

The Plan Year will correspond with the Bank’s fiscal year, January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021.

Eligibility/Participation

Eligibility - Eligibility for participation in the Plan will include non-executive officers who impact organization-wide results, excluding those participating in other incentive programs such as retail incentive programs or the executive incentive program. Actual participation will be based upon determinations made by the Committee, which will consider among other matters input from the Chief Executive Officer. To participate in the Plan, the employee must meet the following requirements:

● Employees hired before October 1^st will receive a pro-rata award based on the number of full months employed during the Plan Year.

● Employees hired after September 30^th must wait until the following Plan Year to participate.

● Any designated employee must enter into a Plan participation agreement that specifies, with respect to the employee, and for the Plan Year, the annual incentive targets, applicable weightings between corporate and team performance, the performance goals, the corporate performance weightings, the applicable team performance weightings, and such other provisions that the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate.

2021 Plan Year Incentive Award Opportunity

Each participant is assigned a target award level, expressed as a percentage of “Eligible Earnings” (as defined in the “PAYOUTS” section below – generally base salary determined prior to pretax deferrals), and range that defines their incentive opportunity. Actual awards will be allocated based on specific performance goals defined for each participant and will range from 0% to 150% of the participant’s target incentive opportunity. Performance goals will be determined at “target”, “threshold” and “stretch” levels, where “target” represents the expected level of achievement, “threshold” represents the minimum level of performance for which a payment may be made, and “stretch” represents outstanding performance resulting in a maximum level of payment.

Awards may be determined based on a weighted combination of corporate and team performance.

2021 Plan Year Incentive Award Opportunity

Each participant is assigned a target award level, expressed as a percentage of “Eligible Earnings” (as defined in the “PAYOUTS” section below – generally base salary determined prior to pretax deferrals), and range that defines their incentive opportunity. Actual awards will be allocated based on specific performance goals defined for each participant and will range from 0% to 150% of the participant’s target incentive opportunity. Performance goals will be determined at “target”, “threshold” and “stretch” levels, where “target” represents the expected level of achievement, “threshold” represents the minimum level of performance for which a payment may be made, and “stretch” represents outstanding performance resulting in a maximum level of payment.

Awards may be determined based on a weighted combination of corporate and team performance.

2021 Plan Year Corporate Performance Measures

For the 2021 Plan Year, the Committee has approved the following corporate performance measures based upon the consolidated performance of First Northwest Bancorp (FNWB):

● Return on Average Equity (“ROAE”), which is defined as Plan Year net income divided by annual average total equity.

● Growth in Total Assets, which is defined as total assets at 12/31/2021 less total assets at 12/31/2020, divided by total assets at 12/31/2020.

● Total Non-Interest Income, which is defined as Non-Interest Income for the year ended 12/31/2021.

● Coverage Ratio, which is defined Non-Performing Assets plus Loans 90 days Past Due/ Tangible Equity + LLR (%) at 12/31/2021.

● Efficiency Ratio, which is defined as Noninterest expense, less amortization of intangible assets, divided by net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis and noninterest income for the Plan Year. Assumes an effective tax rate of 21%.

Financial performance determination for the corporate performance measures will be made at the holding company level.

Payouts

Payouts will be made in a cash lump sum. In order to receive payment, a participant must be employed on the date the payment is processed. Payment of earned incentives under the Plan, if any, will occur within two weeks of the form 10-K filing, following the end of the Plan Year. Incentive awards will be considered taxable income, unless the participant elects to defer payments into the 401(k) or deferred compensation plans.

Each participant’s payout is calculated on Eligible Earnings. Eligible Earnings reflect the annualized base salary as of the end of the Plan Year determined prior to any pretax deferrals. The actual incentive calculation is then based on each participant’s performance goals as outlined in the participant’s participation agreement. Actual payouts for each performance goal will be pro-rated between target and stretch levels to reward incremental improvement.

Performance of each specific goal is calculated independently to determine the payout for the goal. The sum of the awards for each of the performance goals determines the total incentive award. Performance that meets Threshold but is below Target will be paid at the Threshold rate. Performance that meets Target will be paid at Target rate. Performance exceeding Target to just below Stretch will be determined using straight line interpolation. Performance meeting or exceeding Stretch will be paid at the Stretch rate.

Committee Discretion

The Committee reserves the right to apply positive or negative discretion to the payments as needed to reflect the business environment and market conditions that may affect First Northwest Bancorp’s financial and stock price performance. The Committee also reserves the right to amend, modify and adjust payouts as necessary, including but not limited to complying with any statutory or regulatory requirements. However, no change may be made regarding when or how the payments are made, if such change would violate any Federal or state law or regulation, specifically including Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

General Terms and Conditions

This section provides a general overview of the major terms and conditions of the Plan.  These provisions are subject to change and do not constitute a binding agreement.

Effective Date

The Plan will become effective on the date it is approved by the Committee. The Plan will be reviewed annually by the Committee, with input from the Bank’s executive management, to ensure proper alignment with the Bank’s business objectives.

Plan Administration

The Plan is authorized by the Bank Board of Directors and administered by the Committee. The Committee has the sole authority to interpret the Plan and all participation agreements and to make or nullify any rules and procedures, as necessary, for proper administration. Any determination by the Committee will be final and binding on all participants.

Program Changes or Discontinuance

The Bank has developed the Plan on the basis of existing business, market and economic conditions; current services; and staff assignments. If substantial changes occur that affect these conditions, services, assignments, or forecasts, the Bank may add to, amend, modify or discontinue any of the terms or conditions of the Plan or any participation agreement at any time.

The Committee may, at its sole discretion, waive, change or amend any of the Plan or participation agreement provisions as it deems appropriate.

Program Funding

Plan payouts are made solely from the Bank’s general assets. The Plan is funded and accrued based on holding company performance results for a given year. Achieving higher levels of performance will increase the Plan payouts to participants. Similarly, achieving less than target performance will reduce the Plan payouts.

Any rights accruing to a participant or his/her beneficiary under the Plan shall be solely those of an unsecured general creditor of the Bank. Nothing contained in the Plan, and no action taken pursuant to the provisions hereof, will create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a pledge, or a fiduciary relationship between the Bank or the Committee and the participant or any other person. Nothing herein will be construed to require the Bank to maintain any fund or to segregate any amount for a participant’s benefit.

New Hires, Reduced Work Schedules, Promotions, Transfers, Performance

Participants who are not employed by the Bank at the beginning of the Plan Year will receive a pro rata incentive award based on their length of employment during a given year. Employees hired after September 30^th will not be eligible to participate until the next Plan Year.

If a participant changes his/her role or is promoted during the Plan Year, he/she will be eligible for the new role’s target incentive award opportunity on a pro rata basis (i.e., the award will be prorated based on the number of full months employed in the respective positions). In the event of an approved leave of absence, the award opportunity level for the year will be adjusted to reflect the time in active status. For example, a participant on leave status for 13 weeks during a Plan Year will have his or her calculated award reduced by one-fourth (13 weeks/52 weeks) to reflect the period of leave. The manner of adjustment shall be determined solely by the Committee.

If an employee is on a performance improvement plan or other performance related disciplinary action, the Bank may, at its discretion, choose to reduce or pay no incentive to a participant. The employee must also have received a total comprehensive performance score of 2.0 or greater in the most recent evaluation period to be eligible for an incentive payout.

Clawback

The Plan will be subject to the Bank’s clawback policy, as it may be modified from time to time.

In the event that the Bank or FNWB is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the Bank will recover incentive compensation awarded to current or former officers (during the preceding three years) to the extent the original awards exceeded the amounts that would have been paid under the restated results. By accepting participation in this Plan, the employee agrees to be bound by this repayment requirement, and such repayment shall be fully made within 60 days of when requested by the Bank.

Death or Disability

In the event of a participant’s death during active service or termination due to disability, then to the extent it is determined by the Committee following the end of the Plan Year that the performance goals have been attained, the participant shall be entitled to a full payment based on the actual achievement of performance goals during the entire performance period. Payment under these circumstances, if any, shall be made at the time payments are made to participants who did not terminate service during the Plan Year.

Interpretation

If there is any ambiguity as to the meaning of any terms or provisions of this Plan or any questions as to the correct interpretation of any information contained therein, the Bank’s interpretation expressed by the Committee will be final and binding.

Miscellaneous

The Plan will not be deemed to give any participant the right to be retained as an employee of the Bank, nor will the Plan interfere with the right of the Bank to discharge any participant at any time.

In the absence of an authorized, written employment contract, the relationship between employees and the Bank is one of at-will employment. The Plan does not alter the relationship.

This Plan and the transactions and payments hereunder shall, in all respect, be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington and where applicable Federal law.

Each provision in this Plan and any participation agreement is severable, and if any provision is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not, in any way, be affected or impaired thereby.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT

I have read, understand and agree to the information outlined in the First Federal 2021 Officer Cash Incentive Plan (“the Plan”), including the Terms and Conditions. I further acknowledge that I have the sole responsibility to maintain copies of any documents referenced in the Plan. I also have the sole responsibility to consult my manager or Human Resources Representative if I have any questions or concerns relating to this Plan.

I authorize the Company to deduct, from any compensation I would otherwise be eligible to receive, any outstanding debt I owe to the Company including, but not limited to, overpayments, payroll errors, advances, personal expenses incurred on Company credit cards, moving expenses, and the costs of any equipment not returned to the Company upon Company’s request or upon my last day of employment.

Nothing in this Plan, either alone or in conjunction with any other documents, may be construed to create expressly or by implication an employment relationship for a specified duration. The participant or the Company may terminate the participant’s employment for any reason at any time.

Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block]

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Critical Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of business - First Northwest Bancorp, a Washington corporation ("First Northwest"), became the holding company of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles ("First Fed" or the "Bank") on January 29, 2015, upon completion of the Bank's conversion from a mutual to stock form of organization (the "Conversion"). First Northwest and the Bank are collectively referred to as the "Company." In connection with the Conversion, the Company issued an aggregate of 12,167,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $10.00 per share for gross proceeds of $121.7 million. An additional 933,360 shares of Company common stock and $400,000 in cash were contributed to the First Federal Community Foundation ("Foundation"), a charitable foundation that was established in connection with the Conversion, resulting in the issuance of a total of 13,100,360 shares. The Company received $117.6 million in net proceeds from the stock offering of which $58.4 million were contributed to the Bank upon Conversion.

Pursuant to the Bank's Plan of Conversion (the "Plan") adopted by its Board of Directors, and as approved by its members, the Company established an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP"). On December 18, 2015, the ESOP completed its open market purchases, with funds borrowed from the Company, of 8% of the common stock issued in the Conversion for a total of 1,048,029 shares.

First Northwest's business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in First Fed. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including the consolidated unaudited financial statements and related data, relates primarily to the Bank.

The Bank is a community-oriented financial institution providing commercial and consumer banking services to individuals and businesses in Western Washington State with offices in Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, King, and Whatcom counties. These services include deposit and lending transactions that are supplemented with borrowing and investing activities.

Basis of presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods.

In preparing the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to a determination of the allowance for loan losses ("ALLL"), fair value of financial instruments, and deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Northwest and its wholly owned subsidiary, First Fed. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Subsequent Events - The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure and has included additional information where appropriate. See Note 10 for additional information.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 simplifies various aspects related to accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The standard also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)-Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction between accounting standards related to equity securities, equity method investments, and certain derivatives including accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. The ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Loss, which updates the guidance on recognition and measurement of credit losses for financial assets. The new requirements, known as the current expected credit loss model (CECL) will require entities to adopt an impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Upon adoption, the Company will change processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in 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 accounting policy and procedures for other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities available for sale will be replaced with an allowance approach.

Additional updates were issued in ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 825), Financial Instruments. This ASU clarifies and improves guidance related to the previously issued standards on credit losses, hedging and recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The amendments provide entities with various measurement alternatives and policy elections related to accounting for credit losses and accrued interest receivable balances. Entities are also able to elect a practical expedient to separately disclose the total amount of accrued interest included in the amortized cost basis as a single balance to meet certain disclosure requirements. The amendments clarify that the estimated allowance for credit losses should include all expected recoveries of financial assets and trade receivables that were previously written off and expected to be written off. The amendments also allow entities to use projections of future interest rate environments when using a discounted cash flow method to measure expected credit losses on variable-rate financial instruments.

In addition, new updates were issued through ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This amendment allows entities to elect the fair value option on certain financial instruments. On adoption, an entity is allowed to irrevocably elect the fair value option on an instrument-by-instrument basis. This alternative is available for all instruments in the scope of Subtopic 326-20 except for existing held-to-maturity debt securities. If an entity elects the fair value option, the difference between the instrument’s fair value and carrying amount is recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 which defers the effective date for this guidance for smaller reporting companies from the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 to the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company plans to defer adoption of CECL until January 1, 2023.

The Company is evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13, ASU No. 2019-04 and ASU No. 2019-05, and will closely monitor developments and additional guidance to determine the potential impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact the implementation of these ASUs will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company's internal project management team continues to review models, work with our third-party vendor, and discuss changes to processes and procedures to ensure the Company is fully compliant with the amendments at the adoption date.

Other Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.

The Company may hold certain investment securities in an unrealized loss position that are not considered other than temporarily impaired ("OTTI"). At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 71 and 36 investment securities in an unrealized loss position, respectively.

We believe that the unrealized losses on our investment securities relate principally to the general change in interest rates, market demand, and related volatility, rather than credit quality, that has occurred since the initial purchase, and such unrecognized losses or gains will continue to vary with general interest rate level and market fluctuations in the future. Certain investments in a loss position are guaranteed by government entities or government sponsored entities. The Company does not intend to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position and believes it is not likely it will be required to sell these investments prior to a market price recovery or maturity.

There were no OTTI losses during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities by contractual maturity are shown in the following tables at the dates indicated. Expected maturities of mortgage-backed securities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties; therefore, these securities are shown separately.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company maintains a general allowance for loan losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, including management’s continuing analysis of the factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, actual loan loss experience, and current and anticipated economic conditions. The reserve is an estimate based upon factors and trends identified by management at the time the financial statements are prepared.

The following tables summarize changes in the ALLL and loan portfolio by segment and impairment method for the periods shown:

Impaired loans. A loan is considered impaired when the Bank has determined that it may be unable to collect payments of principal or interest when due under the contractual terms of the loan. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for all loans in the portfolio except smaller balance homogeneous loans and certain qualifying troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") loans.

Credit quality indicator. Federal regulations provide for the classification of lower quality loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities, as substandard, doubtful, or loss; risk ratings 6, 7, and 8 in our 8-point risk rating system, respectively. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and pay capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values. Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

When the Bank classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it may establish a specific allowance to address the risk specifically or allow the loss to be addressed in the general allowance. General allowances represent loss allowances that have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities but that, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to certain problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as a loss, it is required to charge off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. Assets that do not currently expose the Bank to enough risk to warrant classification as substandard or doubtful but do possess identified weaknesses are designated as either watch or special mention assets; risk ratings 4 and 5 in our risk rating system, respectively. Loans not otherwise classified are considered pass graded loans and are rated 1-3 in our risk rating system.

Additionally, the Bank categorizes loans as performing or nonperforming based on payment activity. Loans that are more than 90 days past due and nonaccrual loans are considered nonperforming.

Troubled debt restructuring. A TDR is a loan to a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty that has been modified from its original terms and conditions in such a way that the Bank is granting the borrower a concession of some kind. First Fed has granted a variety of concessions to borrowers in the form of loan modifications. The modifications are generally related to the loan's interest rate, term and payment amount or a combination thereof.

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 (i.e., 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. This relief was extended under the Consolidated Appropriations Act 2021, to the earlier of 60 days after the COVID-19 pandemic national emergency termination date or January 1, 2022. Through  March 31, 2021, the Company had granted COVID-19 pandemic related temporary loan modifications on a total of 357 loans aggregating to $175.0 million, or 15.0% of total loans. 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.

The following table is a summary of COVID-19 modified loans that remain on deferral as of  March 31, 2021:

Note 5 - Federal Taxes on Income

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. These calculations are based on many complex factors including estimates of the timing of reversals of temporary differences, the interpretation of federal income tax laws, and a determination of the differences between the tax and the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates and interpretations used in determining the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

The effective tax rates were 13.2% and 18.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the statutory maximum federal tax rate for 2021 and 2020 of 21%, largely due to the nontaxable earnings on bank owned life insurance and tax-exempt interest income earned on certain investment securities and loans. Additionally, a cumulative adjustment was recorded in the first quarter of 2021.

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

Note 6 - Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. In addition, nonvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the components used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Note 7 - Employee Benefits

Change from Multi-employer to Single-employer Pension Plan

Effective March 23, 2021, the Company withdrew from the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan for Financial Institutions ("Pentegra DB Plan") and established the First Federal Defined Benefit Plan ("Bank DB Plan"). On March 23, 2021, all assets and liabilities were transferred from the Pentegra DB Plan to the newly established Bank DB Plan.

The Bank DB Plan is a defined benefit pension plan covering current and former employees. Benefits available under the plan are frozen. The plan provides defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary prior to the freeze. The Company uses December 31 as the measurement date for this plan. The initial measurement period will be March 23, 2021 – December 31, 2021.

The fair value of plan assets and projected benefit obligation on the March 23, 2021, Bank DB Plan adoption date were $14,705,000 and $14,197,000, respectively. A $2,717,599 cash contribution was made to the Pentegra DB Plan in March 2021 prior to the transition. A prior service cost of $1,745,519, net of tax, was included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Company's balance sheet at March 31, 2021. The prior service cost is expected to be amortized over 15 years.

Weighted-average assumptions used to determine pension benefit obligations at year-end include a 2.95% discount rate and a 0% rate of compensation increase. The weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic pension cost include 2.95% discount rate, 5.75% expected return on plan assets and a 0% rate of compensation increase. The 5.75% weighted average expected long-term rate of return is estimated based on current trends in similar plan assets, as well as projected future rates of returns on similar assets.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In connection with the Conversion, the Company established an ESOP for eligible employees of the Company and the Bank. Employees of the Company and the Bank who have been credited with at least 1,000 hours of service during a 12-month period are eligible to participate in the ESOP.

Pursuant to the Plan, the ESOP purchased shares in the open market with funds borrowed from First Northwest. The Bank will make contributions to the ESOP in amounts necessary to amortize the ESOP loan payable to First Northwest over a period of 20 years, bearing estimated interest at 2.46%. The loan is secured by shares purchased with the loan proceeds and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from the Bank's discretionary contributions to the ESOP and earnings on the ESOP assets. No principal or interest payment was made by the ESOP during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the average daily market prices of the shares and the shares become outstanding for EPS computations. The compensation expense is accrued monthly throughout the year. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings; dividends on unallocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt and accrued interest.

Compensation expense related to the ESOP for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, was $217,000 and $151,000, respectively.

Shares issued to the ESOP as of the dates indicated are as follows:

Note 8 - Stock-based Compensation

In May 2020, the Company's shareholders approved the First Northwest Bancorp 2020 Equity Incentive Plan ("2020 EIP"), which provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock shares or restricted stock units, and performance share awards to eligible participants through May 2030. The cost of awards under the 2020 EIP generally is based on the fair value of the awards on their grant date. The maximum number of shares that may be utilized for awards under the 2020 EIP is 520,000. As of  March 31, 2021, there were 336,480 total shares available for grant under the 2020 EIP, all of which are available to be granted as restricted shares.

As a result of the approval of the 2020 EIP, the First Northwest Bancorp 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2015 EIP") was frozen and no additional awards will be made. As of  March 31, 2021, there were no shares available for grant under the 2015 EIP. At this date, there are 189,500 shares granted under the 2015 EIP that are expected to vest subject to the 2015 EIP plan provisions.

There were 84,896 and 35,100 shares of restricted stock awarded, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. Awarded shares of restricted stock vest ratably over periods ranging from three to five years from the date of grant provided the eligible participant remains in service to the Company. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the restricted stock awards based on the fair value of the shares at the grant date amortized over the stated period.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, total compensation expense for the equity incentive plans was $404,000 and $304,000, respectively.

Included in the above compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, was directors' compensation of $91,000 and $85,000, respectively.

Note 9 - Fair Value Accounting and Measurement

Fair value is the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the Company’s principal market. The Company has established and documented its process for determining the fair values of its assets and liabilities, where applicable. Fair value is based on quoted market prices, when available, for identical or similar assets or liabilities. In the absence of quoted market prices, management determines the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities using valuation models or third-party pricing services, both of which rely on market-based parameters when available, such as interest rate yield curves, option volatilities and credit spreads, or unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs may be based on management’s judgment, assumptions, and estimates related to credit quality, liquidity, interest rates, and other relevant inputs.

Any changes to valuation methodologies are reviewed by management to ensure they are relevant and justified. Valuation methodologies are refined as more market-based data becomes available.

A three-level valuation hierarchy is used in determining fair value that is based on the transparency of the inputs used in the valuation process. The inputs used in determining fair value in each of the three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Either: (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; (ii) observable inputs, such as interest rates or yield curves; or (iii) inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs.

The hierarchy gives the highest ranking to Level 1 inputs and the lowest ranking to Level 3 inputs. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Qualitative disclosures of valuation techniques - Securities available for sale: where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified as Level 1. Level 1 instruments include highly liquid government bonds, securities issued by the U.S. Treasury, and exchange-traded equity securities.

If quoted prices are not available, management determines fair value using pricing models, quoted prices of similar securities, which are considered Level 2, or discounted cash flows. In certain cases, where there is limited activity in the market for an instrument, assumptions must be made to determine their fair value. Such instruments are classified as Level 3.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis - Assets and liabilities are considered to be valued on a recurring basis if fair value is measured regularly (i.e., daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly). The following tables show the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates indicated:

The significant unobservable inputs in the fair value measurement of the Company's Level 3 securities are noted below. Significant fluctuations in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly different fair value measurement.

The following table presents quantitative information about recurring Level 3 fair value measurements at the date indicated:

December 31, 2020	Fair Value (In thousands)	Valuation Technique	Unobservable Input	Range (a)
Corporate debt	$ 1,540	Consensus pricing	Offered quotes	89 - 91
			Comparability adjustments (%)	-0.7% - +1.3%
	1,000	Consensus pricing	Offered quotes	92 - 100
			Comparability adjustments (%)	-7.4% - 0%
MBS corporate	6,372	Consensus pricing	Offered quotes	104 - 107
			Comparability adjustments (%)	-1.5% - +1.5%
(a) Unobservable inputs were weighted by the relative fair value of the instruments.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis - Assets are considered to be valued on a nonrecurring basis if the fair value measurement of the instrument does not necessarily result in a change in the amount recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Generally, nonrecurring valuation is the result of the application of other accounting pronouncements that require assets or liabilities to be assessed for impairment or recorded at the lower of cost or fair value.

The following tables present the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at the dates indicated:

Financial assets and liabilities other than investment securities are not traded in active markets. Estimated fair values require subjective judgments and are approximate. The estimates of fair value in the previous table are not necessarily representative of amounts that could be realized in actual market transactions, or of the underlying value of the Company. The methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as set forth below in accordance with ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, as amended by ASU 2016-01 requiring public entities to use the exit price notion effective January 1, 2018, are as follows:

Securities - Fair values for investment securities are primarily measured using information from a third-party pricing service. The pricing service uses pricing models based on market data. In the event that limited or less transparent information is provided by the third-party pricing service, fair value is estimated using secondary pricing services or non-binding third-party broker quotes.

Loans receivable, net - At March 31, 2021, the fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rate at which similar loans and leases would be made to borrowers with similar credit and for the same remaining maturities. Additionally, to be consistent with the requirements under FASB ASC Topic 820 for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the loans were valued at a price that represents the Company’s exit price or the price at which these instruments would be sold or transferred.

Mortgage servicing rights, net - The estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts when available. If no comparable contract is available, the estimated fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Basis of presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods.

In preparing the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to a determination of the allowance for loan losses ("ALLL"), fair value of financial instruments, and deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Northwest and its wholly owned subsidiary, First Fed. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Subsequent Events, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Subsequent Events - The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure and has included additional information where appropriate. See Note 10 for additional information.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 simplifies various aspects related to accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The standard also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)-Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction between accounting standards related to equity securities, equity method investments, and certain derivatives including accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. The ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Loss, which updates the guidance on recognition and measurement of credit losses for financial assets. The new requirements, known as the current expected credit loss model (CECL) will require entities to adopt an impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Upon adoption, the Company will change processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in 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 accounting policy and procedures for other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities available for sale will be replaced with an allowance approach.

Additional updates were issued in ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 825), Financial Instruments. This ASU clarifies and improves guidance related to the previously issued standards on credit losses, hedging and recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The amendments provide entities with various measurement alternatives and policy elections related to accounting for credit losses and accrued interest receivable balances. Entities are also able to elect a practical expedient to separately disclose the total amount of accrued interest included in the amortized cost basis as a single balance to meet certain disclosure requirements. The amendments clarify that the estimated allowance for credit losses should include all expected recoveries of financial assets and trade receivables that were previously written off and expected to be written off. The amendments also allow entities to use projections of future interest rate environments when using a discounted cash flow method to measure expected credit losses on variable-rate financial instruments.

In addition, new updates were issued through ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This amendment allows entities to elect the fair value option on certain financial instruments. On adoption, an entity is allowed to irrevocably elect the fair value option on an instrument-by-instrument basis. This alternative is available for all instruments in the scope of Subtopic 326-20 except for existing held-to-maturity debt securities. If an entity elects the fair value option, the difference between the instrument’s fair value and carrying amount is recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 which defers the effective date for this guidance for smaller reporting companies from the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 to the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company plans to defer adoption of CECL until January 1, 2023.

The Company is evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13, ASU No. 2019-04 and ASU No. 2019-05, and will closely monitor developments and additional guidance to determine the potential impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact the implementation of these ASUs will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company's internal project management team continues to review models, work with our third-party vendor, and discuss changes to processes and procedures to ensure the Company is fully compliant with the amendments at the adoption date.

Other Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments are effective for the Company as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company does not believe this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Reclassification, Comparability Adjustment [Policy Text Block]

Reclassifications - Certain amounts in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current unaudited financial statement presentation with no effect on net income or shareholders' equity.
