FIRST NORTHWEST BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY

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, became the holding company of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles on January 29, 2015, upon completion of the Bank's conversion from a mutual to stock form of organization (the "Conversion"). 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 Federal. 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, 2019. 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. The Company changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31 effective December 31, 2017. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2020, 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 Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary, First Federal. 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.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In August 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements in ASC 820. This guidance eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements: the amount of and reasons

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, an entity’s policy for the timing of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy and an entity’s valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance also adds new disclosure requirements for public entities: changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of instruments held at the end of the reporting period, and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop recurring and nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements, including how the weighted average is calculated. Furthermore, this guidance modifies certain requirements which will involve disclosing: transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, purchases and issuances of Level 3 assets and liabilities, and information about the measurement uncertainty of Level 3 fair value measurements as of the reporting date. This guidance is effective for public companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. This ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, to provide guidance on implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. The ASU aligns the accounting for such costs with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. Specifically, the ASU amends ASC 350 to include in its scope implementation costs of such arrangements that are service contracts and clarifies that a customer should apply ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs should be capitalized. This ASU, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments. The amendments represent clarification and improvements to the codification and correct unintended application. This standard was effective immediately upon issuance and its adoption 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

10

FIRST NORTHWEST BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

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 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, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. Early adoption is permitted.

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, is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

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, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were 41 and 62 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, 2020 and 2019.

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 First Federal 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 First Federal 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 First Federal 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 First Federal 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, First Federal 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 First Federal is granting the borrower a concession of some kind. First Federal 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.

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 18.9% and 18.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the statutory maximum federal tax rate for 2019 and 2018 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.

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, 2020 and 2019.

Basic earnings per share	$	0.09			$	0.22
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.09			$	0.22

Unallocated ESOP shares are not included as outstanding for either basic or diluted earnings per share calculations. As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, there were 780,785 and 833,782 shares in the ESOP that remain unallocated, respectively.

Potential dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of EPS if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were 16,256 and zero restricted stock award anti-dilutive weighted-average shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Note 7 - Employee Benefits

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 was paid by the ESOP during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

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, 2020 and 2019, was $151,000 and $207,000, respectively.

Note 8 - Stock-based Compensation

On November 16, 2015, the Company's shareholders approved the First Northwest Bancorp 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2015 EIP"), which provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units to eligible participants. The cost of awards under the 2015 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 2015 EIP is 1,834,050. The 2015 EIP provides for the use of authorized but unissued shares or shares that have been reacquired by First Northwest to fund share-based awards. At March 31, 2020, there were 1,322,050 total shares available for grant under the 2015 EIP, including 12,014 shares available to be granted as restricted stock.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, 35,100 shares of restricted stock were awarded and no stock options were granted. There were no shares of restricted stock awarded during the three and three months ended March 31, 2019. Awarded shares of restricted stock vest ratably over 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 five years.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, total compensation expense for the 2015 EIP was $304,000 and $283,000, respectively.

Included in the above compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, directors' compensation was $85,000 and $85,000, respectively.

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

As of March 31, 2020, there was $3.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested shares granted as restricted stock awards. The cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 3.46 years.

Subsequent to quarter-end, on May 5, 2020, the Company's shareholders approved the First Northwest Bancorp 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the "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. 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. The 2020 EIP provides for the use of authorized but unissued shares or shares that have been reacquired by First Northwest to fund share-based awards. The 2020 EIP is separate from the 2015 EIP. The adoption of the 2020 EIP neither affects nor is affected by the continued existence of the 2015 EIP, except that after May 5, 2020, no further awards will be granted under the 2015 EIP.

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, 2020, 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

Consequently, the Company incorporated several COVID-19 pandemic measures to assist the communities we serve. We are actively assisting customers and supporting the businesses in our communities.

million of PPP loans for more than 377 customers in SBA PPP loan fundings as of May 7, 2020, with an average loan amount approved of approximately $77,000. Payments by borrowers on these loans begin six months after the note date, and interest, at 1%, will continue to accrue during the six-month deferment. Loans can be forgiven in whole or part (up to full principal and any accrued interest).

The success of our banking operation relies entirely on the safety and well-being of our employees and customers. On March 20, 2020, we began restricting lobby activities at all branches to appointment only and encouraged the use of drive-up services, ITM/ATM machines, digital banking applications and our contact center.

General

First Northwest is a bank holding company which primarily engages in the business activity of its subsidiary, First Federal. First Federal is a community-oriented financial institution serving Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, Whatcom, and King counties in Washington, through its Seattle lending center and ten full-service branches. Our business and operating strategy is focused on diversifying our loan portfolio through geographic expansion and loan product mix, expanding our deposit product offerings by adding additional value-added products, 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 lending and depository needs of the communities we serve. While we have a concentration of first lien one- to four-family mortgage loans, over the past five years, we increased our origination and portfolio balances of commercial real estate, multi-family real estate, and have increased our auto and consumer loans, through indirect auto lending and purchased auto loan programs, in order to diversify 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 improve our interest rate risk. We also retain one- to four-family first and second lien loans in our portfolio to enhance 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 our lending and investing activities. We also

borrow funds, typically from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, which provides additional funding and interest rate risk tools to the Bank.

First Federal is significantly 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, marketing and promotion, and the overall level of personal income and savings. 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, 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, 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 a loan's risk rating improves, property values increase, or recoveries of amounts previously charged off are received, a recapture of previously recognized provision for loan losses may be added to net income.

The 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, advertising and promotion expenses, marketing and promotion expenses, expenses related to real estate and personal property owned and other miscellaneous expenses.

COVID-19 Pandemic. In late 2019 and early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic manifested its impact on individuals, companies, and governmental entities around the world. It significantly impacted the global economy and created a challenging operating environment. As economic conditions deteriorated in mid-March 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we responded in several ways. Some of the key adjustments and developments include the following:

•	For our employees:

◦	Enhancing the ability of our employees to work remotely, adjusting branch operating hours and restricting lobby access in most cases.

◦	Providing significant support to employees by granting an increase in flexibility with paid leave, temporarily adjusting vacation policies, and increasing the cleaning of facilities to enable a safer environment for those employees that are not able to work from home.

◦	Increasing compensation for hourly employees and providing additional compensation for exempt employees below the level of Senior Vice President.

•	For our customers and communities:

◦	Offering short-term loan payment and fee forbearance programs. May borrowers requested and received temporary forbearance from obligations to assist them with the expected shortage in their near-term cash flow.

◦	Facilitating government programs like the Small Business Administration's Paycheck Protection Program ("SBA PPP").

◦	Investing in our communities. We plan to use a portion of the proceeds received from the SBA PPP loans and invest in the communities we serve.

•	For our shareholders and regulators:

◦	Maintaining our capital ratios at strong levels and materially increasing our provision for loan losses to $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared to $669,000 for all of 2019.

◦	Increasing on balance sheet liquidity, specifically Cash and Cash Equivalents increased by $58.4 million, a 120% increase over December 31, 2019.

On March 23, 2020, the State of Washington announced the Stay Home, Stay Healthy order for all residents, resulting in the closing of businesses or a substantial reduction in business activity. The sectors that have been most heavily impacted include hospitality; restaurant and food services; lessors of commercial real estate to hospitality, restaurant, and retail establishments; and professional services. At March 31, 2020, the Company’s exposure as a percent of the total loan portfolio to these industries was 5.6%, 0.2%, 5.3%, and 1.6%, respectively.

36

Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we provided assistance to many small businesses through the SBA's Paycheck Protection Program. This program provides small businesses with funds to pay up to eight weeks of payroll costs including benefits. A portion of the funds can also be used to pay interest on mortgages, rent, and utilities.

We processed approximately $29.1 million of PPP loans for more than 377 customers in SBA PPP loan fundings as of May 7, 2020. The average loan amount approved was approximately $77,000. Payments by borrowers on these loans begin six months after the note date, and interest, at 1%, will continue to accrue during the six-month deferment. Loans can be forgiven in whole or part (up to full principal and any accrued interest).

Loan processing fees paid to the Bank from the SBA are accounted for as loan origination fees. Net deferred fees are recognized over the life of the loan, or two years, as a yield adjustment on the loans. If a loan is paid off or forgiven by the SBA prior to its maturity date, the remaining unamortized deferred fees will be recognized in interest income at that time. At such time that any of these loans are forgiven or repaid before the scheduled maturity, we expect an increase in interest income and the net interest margin during that period.

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, 2019.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019

Assets. Total assets increased to $1.40 billion at March 31, 2020 from $1.31 billion at December 31, 2019.

Total loans, excluding loans held for sale, increased $21.9 million to $905.7 million at March 31, 2020, from $883.8 million at December 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, one- to four-family residential loans declined $3.3 million, due to repayment and secondary market sale activity exceeding new originations held in portfolio. Multi-family loans decreased $7.3 million, due to prepayment activity outpacing new loan originations. Commercial real estate loans increased by $4.6 million as we continue to build our lending presence in King and Whatcom Counties as well as in our legacy markets. Auto and other consumer and construction and land loans increased $2.1 million and $11.4 million, respectively, as we maintain our specialty auto loan portfolio and fund construction loan commitments. Competition for quality commercial credits remains; however, impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic is impacting both the supply and demand for credit. An increase in refinance activity of one- to-four family residential loans also occurred during the period.

Construction and land loans increased 30.6% to $48.6 million at March 31, 2020, from $37.2 million at December 31, 2019. The majority of our construction loans are geographically dispersed throughout the Puget Sound region and, as a result, these loans 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. In March 2020, the vast majority of construction projects in Washington State were put on hold as a result of Governor Jay Inslee’s “Stay Home, Stay Safe” order. By May 5, 2020, certain projects were able to restart under specific criteria. We do not believe any of the projects currently in our portfolio will not be completed due to the order and subsequent impacts of COVID-19.

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. For the majority of 2019, we decreased our construction lending, which resulted in a decline in construction balances at the end of the year compared to 2019. In the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020, we increased production in construction lending and our commitments increased accordingly. 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, 2020, the Company originated $98.8 million of loans, of which $69.0 million, or 69.9%, were originated in the Puget Sound region, $29.5 million, or 29.9%, in the North Olympic Peninsula, and $0.2 million, or 0.2%, in other areas throughout Washington State. The Company purchased an additional $11.6 million in specialty auto loans, during the three months ended March 31, 2020. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to grow loans through wholesale channels in order to supplement our organic originations and improve net interest income, if the credit risk profile of such loans appears appropriate.

Our allowance for loan losses increased $1.2 million, or 12.5%, to $10.8 million at March 31, 2020, from $9.6 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was due to a $1.3 million loan loss provision made in the first quarter due to qualitative factor adjustments made in response to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as to account for growth in the portfolio. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was 1.2% and 1.1%, respectively.

Nonperforming loans decreased $56,000, or 3.1%, to $1.7 million at March 31, 2020, from $1.8 million at December 31, 2019, mainly attributable to a decrease in nonperforming one- to four-family loans of $231,000 and other consumer loans of $139,000, partially offset by an increase multi-family loans of $297,000. Nonperforming loans to total loans remained the same at 0.2% at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans increased to 622.4% at March 31, 2020, from 536.1% at December 31, 2019, and classified loans decreased $374,000 to $4.6 million at March 31, 2020, from $5.0 million at December 31, 2019.

At March 31, 2020, there were $3.5 million in restructured loans, of which $3.4 million were performing in accordance with their modified payment terms and returned to accrual status.

Asset quality remains consistent with December 31, 2019. Net loan charge-offs are concentrated mainly in our auto loan portfolio. We recently adjusted our indirect auto loan product offerings and underwriting criteria to improve credit quality and reduce future charge-off activity. We continue to monitor the indirect auto loan 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, 2020. While the ultimate impact of the COVID-19

pandemic and response from the Federal and State governments remains to be seen, we increased the qualitative factor related to the economy this quarter to account for losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

Total investment securities increased $1.9 million, or 0.6%, to $317.5 million at March 31, 2020, from $315.6 million at December 31, 2019, due to a net increase of purchases and sales of certain securities, and normal repayment and prepayment activity, which were partially offset by a decrease in the market value of the portfolio. As of March 31, 2020, corporate collateralized loan obligations and agency student loan market values decreased by $10.5 million. We believe the impact to the valuations on these securities is temporary and was driven by market liquidity disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Mortgage-backed securities represent the largest portion of our investment securities portfolio and totaled $154.3 million at March 31, 2020, or 48.6% of the investment securities portfolio, a decrease during the year of $14.2 million, or 8.4%, from $168.5 million at December 31, 2019. Other investment securities, including municipal bonds and other asset-backed securities, were $163.3 million at March 31, 2020, or 51.4% of the investment securities portfolio, an increase of $16.2 million from $147.1 million at December 31, 2019. The investment portfolio, including mortgage-backed securities, had an estimated projected average life of 5.3 years as of March 31, 2020, and 5.0 years as of December 31, 2019, and had an estimated average repricing term of 3.6 years as of March 31, 2020, and 3.7 years as of December 31, 2019, based on the interest rate environment at those times.

The investment portfolio was comprised of 77.9% in amortizing securities at March 31, 2020 and 81.8% at December 31, 2019. As a result, the projected average life of our securities may vary due to prepayment activity, which, particularly in the mortgage-backed securities portfolio, is affected by prevailing mortgage interest rates. Management maintains a focus on improving 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 $99.3 million to $1.23 billion at March 31, 2020, from $1.13 billion at December 31, 2019, primarily due to an increase in borrowings of $37.1 million and an increase in deposit account balances of $62.3 million.

41

---

Deposit balances increased 6.2%, to $1.1 billion at March 31, 2020, from $1.0 billion at December 31, 2019. There was a $5.1 million increase in money market accounts offset by a $3.2 million decrease in savings accounts during the quarter. 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 more effectively, reduce our reliance on public funds deposits, and become more selective when competing on rate. At March 31, 2020, we had $90.4 million in brokered CDs included in our balance of certificates of deposit.

Equity. Total shareholders' equity decreased $9.7 million during the year to $167.2 million at March 31, 2020. The decrease was due to the decline in the value of our available-for-sale securities portfolio, which resulted in a $6.7 million decrease in our accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, as well as a $3.8 million in repurchases of shares of common stock during the quarter. The decrease was partially offset by net income of $873,000 in net income.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019

General. Net income decreased $1.3 million, or 60.4%, to $873,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to net income of $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease is mainly due to a combination of a decrease in net interest income, higher operating expenses, and a larger loan loss provision in the current period compared to the same period one year ago.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $193,000 to $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased twenty-two basis points to 3.97% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 4.19% for the same period in the prior year. This was due to a decrease in market interest rates and a decrease in the ratio of total loans to assets in the current period compared to one year ago.

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 14 basis points to 1.11% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 1.25% for the same period last year, due primarily to a decrease in market deposit and borrowing rates. This was partially due to the prepayment of higher costing FHLB borrowings in the fourth quarter of 2019 and first quarter of 2020. As a result, our average cost of FHLB borrowings decreased to 2.18% in the first quarter of 2020 compared to 2.95% for the same period one year prior.

Due to the average yield on interest-earning assets decreasing at a faster pace than our interest-bearing liabilities, the net interest margin decreased eleven basis points to 3.11% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from 3.22% for the same period in 2019. For additional information, see Rate/Volume Analysis contained in Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.

Interest Income. Total interest income decreased $535,000, or 4.3%, to $12.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from $12.5 million for the comparable period in 2019. Interest and fees on loans receivable decreased $256,000, to $9.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, due primarily to a decrease in the yield on loans and securities. Average loan yields decreased 12 basis points to 4.52% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Interest income on investment securities increased $59,000 to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, due to a $29.6 million increase in average balance partially offset by a 51 basis point decrease in average yield. The change in average yield on investment securities does not include the benefit of nontaxable income from municipal bonds. Interest income on mortgage-backed and related securities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 decreased $298,000, or 23.7%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, the result of a decrease of $22.0 million in the average balance and a 37 basis point decrease in the average yield in the 2020 period.

The following table compares average earning asset balances, associated yields, and resulting changes in interest income for the periods shown:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020							2019							Increase (Decrease) in Interest Income
	Average Balance Outstanding				Yield			Average Balance Outstanding				Yield
	(Dollars in thousands)
Loans receivable, net	$	870,739			4.52	%		$	870,901			4.64	%		$	(256	)

Mortgage-backed securities	161,666				2.37			183,716				2.74			(298		)
FHLB stock	4,707				3.99			6,844				5.14			(41		)
Interest-bearing deposits in banks	21,248				1.28			11,873				2.26			1
Total interest-earning assets	$	1,208,314			3.97			$	1,193,684			4.19			$	(535	)

Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased $342,000, or 11.7%, to $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, mainly due to an 11.1% increase in deposit costs, which was offset by a 56.2% decrease in borrowing costs. Interest expense on deposits increased for the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to increased balances and a reallocation of non-maturity deposits into higher-yielding accounts. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $54.5 million, or 6.9%, to $849.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from $794.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as we continued to target deposit growth in new and existing market areas. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the average balance of savings accounts increased $12.2 million and the related weighted-average cost remained flat, compared to the same period in 2019. The average balance of certificates of deposit balances grew $57.5 million and the weighed-average cost increased by 14 basis points, mainly as a result of the utilization of brokered CDs. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the average balance of money market accounts decreased $15.4 million compared to the same period in the prior year, as customers moved money into higher-yielding certificates of deposit and savings accounts at First Federal. The average cost of deposits increased by 4 basis points to 1.01% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from 0.97% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Borrowing costs decreased due to a decrease in balances and the average rate paid during the most recent quarter compared to the same period in 2019. We prepaid $25.0 million in FHLB advances during the most recent quarter that had an average rate of 3.81%, which better positions us to align our funding costs more closely with earning asset yields going forward. The prepayment penalty for this transaction was $210,000.

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

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020							2019							Increase (Decrease) in Interest Expense

Total interest-bearing liabilities	$	928,855			1.11			$	929,156			1.25			$	(342	)

Provision for Loan Losses. There was a provision for loan losses of $1.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to a $335,000 provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This was mainly due to an increase to the economic qualitative factor resulting from the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 and its economic impact.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $1.6 million or 20.3% during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, mainly due to a 17.2% increase in compensation and benefits as we hired additional bankers, a 90.2% increase to advertising expense, and a one-time FHLB prepayment penalty of $210,000.

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 Federal 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, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, 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, 2020, cash and cash equivalents totaled $107.2 million, and unpledged securities classified as available-for-sale with a market value of $212.8 million provided additional sources of liquidity. We pledged collateral to support borrowings from the FHLB of $150.0 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 $50.9 million were pledged as of March 31, 2020.

At March 31, 2020, we had $630,000 in loan commitments outstanding, $110.8 million in undisbursed loans and standby letters of credit, including $69.7 million in undisbursed construction loan commitments.

Certificates of deposit due within one year as of March 31, 2020 totaled $289.7 million, or 80.8% of certificates of deposit with a weighted-average rate of 1.60%. 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 interest rates have dropped. 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 afford 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 to pay its operating expenses and other financial obligations. At March 31, 2020, the Company (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $14.0 million.

Capital Resources

At March 31, 2020, shareholders' equity totaled $167.2 million, or 12.0% of total assets. Our book value per share of common stock was $16.02 at March 31, 2020, compared to $16.48 at December 31, 2019.

At March 31, 2020, 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 Federal at March 31, 2020.

	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)	$	149,708			11.8	%		$	50,968			4.0	%		$	63,710			5.0	%
Common equity tier I (to risk-weighted assets)	149,708				16.8			40,064				4.5			57,871				6.5
Tier I risk-based capital (to risk-weighted assets)	149,708				16.8			53,419				6.0			71,225				8.0
Total risk-based capital (to risk-weighted assets)	160,800				18.1			71,225				8.0			89,032				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 most industrial companies, 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, 2019.

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, 2020, 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, 2020, 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, 2019.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect our customers future results of operations 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 and stocks in general

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 as customers are unable to repay loans and meet their obligations, as well as adversely impact our earnings. We believe our strong capital position will be important in managing through the unknown impact of the pandemic.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

First Northwest Bancorp 2020 Equity Incentive Plan

On May 5, 2020, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the First Northwest Bancorp 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan"). The 2020 Plan replaces the Company's 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. Under the 2020 Plan, the Company may grant awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted awards and performance share awards to the Company's employees and non-employee directors. The Company may grant stock-based awards for up to 520,000 shares of the Company's common stock under the 2020 Plan.

For more details regarding the 2020 Plan, please see the Company's Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under cover of Schedule 14A on March 20, 2020, under the caption "Proposal 2 – Approval of First Northwest Bancorp 2020 Equity Incentive Plan." The above description of the 2020 Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2020 Plan, which is attached to this report as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

COVID-19 Legislation and Regulation.

Governments at all levels are rapidly taking steps to address and remediate the COVID-19 emergency.  On March 27, 2020, the President signed into law the historic $2 trillion federal stimulus package known as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which includes many provisions that will impact us and our customers.  For example, the CARES Act includes $350 billion in stimulus for small businesses under the so-called “Paycheck Protection Program” of the U.S. Small Business Administration and an additional $500 billion for the U.S. Department of Treasury to make loans to distressed American businesses.  The various banking agencies have strongly encouraged banks to work with borrowers impacted by COVID-19, and the CARES Act authorizes banks to elect to suspend GAAP for certain loan modifications that would otherwise be classified as a troubled debt restructure (which, in part, allows banks to provide immediate relief to their impacted borrowers).  To ease the financial impacts of COVID-19, these agencies have further encouraged banks to consider offering responsible small-dollar loans to their consumers and small businesses affected by the pandemic.

The CARES Act also provides for direct stimulus payments (i.e., “economic impact payments” or “stimulus checks”) for many eligible Americans, subject to certain income thresholds.  These economic impact payments will typically range from $1,200 to $3,400 and are designed to provide a level of financial relief to those most impacted by COVID-19.  We anticipate that many of our customers will receive these economic impact payments, which the IRS intends to distribute via direct deposit to their accounts or by mailing paper checks.  Overall, the legislative and regulatory landscape surrounding COVID-19 is rapidly changing, and we cannot predict with certainty the impact it will have on our operations or business.

The initial amounts available under the Paycheck Protection Program were quickly exhausted in less than two weeks, leaving many pending loan applications in limbo as Congress negotiated additional funding.  On April 24, 2020, the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act was signed into law to replenish funding to the Paycheck Protection Program and to provide other spending for hospitals and virus testing.  In part, the bill includes an additional $320 billion to make new loans under the Paycheck Protection Program, set aside $30

billion of the loans for banks and credit unions with $10 billion to $50 billion in assets, and set aside another $30 billion for even smaller institutions.  The bill also includes $60 billion in loans and grants under the Economic Industry Disaster Loan program and makes farms and ranches eligible for loans.  The SBA resumed accepting applications under the Paycheck Protection Program on April 27, 2020.
