However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 (“2025 Form 10-K”). The unaudited consolidated results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2026. (b) Principles of Consolidation: The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank, and the Bank's wholly owned subsidiary, Timberland Service Corp. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. (c) Operating Segment: The Company's revenue is primarily derived from the business of banking. Management has assigned certain responsibilities by business-line and evaluates financial performance on a Company-wide basis. The Company's financial performance is monitored on a consolidated basis by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer, which are considered the Company's chief operating decision makers ("CODMs") for financial oversight. The primary measure of performance is consolidated net income. Financial performance is reviewed monthly by the CODMs. The presentation of financial performance is consistent with amounts and financial statement line items shown in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income. All of the Company's operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. (d) The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (e) Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2026 presentation with no change to previously reported net income or total shareholders’ equity. 11 Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (2) INVESTMENT SECURITIES Held to maturity and available for sale investment securities have been classified according to management’s intent and were as follows as of June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands): Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Allowance for Credit Losses June 30, 2026 Held to Maturity U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities $ 56,844 $ — $ ( 2,168 ) $ 54,676 $ — Mortgage-backed securities ("MBS"): U.S. government agencies 47,025 39 ( 1,553 ) 45,511 — Private label residential 13,718 174 ( 836 ) 13,056 30 Total $ 117,587 $ 213 $ ( 4,557 ) $ 113,243 $ 30 June 30, 2026 Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Available for Sale MBS: U.S. government agencies $ 91,961 $ 106 $ ( 1,583 ) $ 90,484 Total $ 91,961 $ 106 $ ( 1,583 ) $ 90,484 September 30, 2025 Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Allowance for Credit Losses Held to Maturity U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities $ 69,646 $ 15 $ ( 2,760 ) $ 66,901 $ — MBS: U.S. government agencies 48,735 199 ( 1,357 ) 47,577 — Private label residential 17,376 196 ( 822 ) 16,750 35 Municipal securities 605 6 — 611 — Bank issued trust preferred securities 499 — ( 4 ) 495 1 Total $ 136,861 $ 416 $ ( 4,943 ) $ 132,334 $ 36 September 30, 2025 Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Available for Sale U.S. government securities $ 4,968 $ — $ — $ 4,968 MBS: U.S. government agencies 73,649 382 ( 759 ) 73,272 Total $ 78,617 $ 382 $ ( 759 ) $ 78,240 12 Held to maturity and available for sale investment securities with unrealized losses were as follows as of June 30, 2026 (dollars in thousands): Less Than 12 Months 12 Months or Longer Total Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Quantity Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Quantity Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Held to maturity U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities $ — $ — — $ 54,676 $ ( 2,168 ) 13 $ 54,676 $ ( 2,168 ) MBS: U.S. government agencies 14,217 ( 78 ) 9 23,269 ( 1,475 ) 36 37,486 ( 1,553 ) Private label residential 1,712 ( 39 ) 3 11,155 ( 797 ) 13 12,867 ( 836 ) Total $ 15,929 $ ( 117 ) 12 $ 89,100 $ ( 4,440 ) 62 $ 105,029 $ ( 4,557 ) Available for sale MBS: U.S. government agencies $ 33,993 $ ( 866 ) 12 $ 24,943 $ ( 717 ) 22 $ 58,936 $ ( 1,583 ) Total $ 33,993 $ ( 866 ) 12 $ 24,943 $ ( 717 ) 22 $ 58,936 $ ( 1,583 ) Held to maturity and available for sale investment securities with unrealized losses were as follows as of September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands): Less Than 12 Months 12 Months or Longer Total Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Quantity Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Quantity Estimated Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Held to maturity U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities $ — $ — — $ 56,960 $ ( 2,760 ) 14 $ 56,960 $ ( 2,760 ) MBS: U.S. government agencies 7 — 1 27,776 ( 1,357 ) 42 27,783 ( 1,357 ) Private label residential 341 ( 2 ) 3 14,646 ( 820 ) 14 14,987 ( 822 ) Bank issued trust preferred securities 495 ( 4 ) 1 — — — 495 ( 4 ) Total $ 843 $ ( 6 ) 5 $ 99,382 $ ( 4,937 ) 70 $ 100,225 $ ( 4,943 ) Available for sale U.S. government securities $ 3,977 $ — 1 $ — $ — — $ 3,977 $ — MBS: U.S. government agencies 11,922 ( 67 ) 3 28,947 ( 692 ) 24 40,869 ( 759 ) Total $ 15,899 $ ( 67 ) 4 $ 28,947 $ ( 692 ) 24 $ 44,846 $ ( 759 ) During the nine months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a $ 22,000 net realized gain on 15 held to maturity investment securities, all of which had been recognized previously as a credit loss. During the nine months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a $ 3,000 net realized loss on 13 held to maturity investment securities all of which had been recognized previously as credit losses. 13 The recorded amount of investment securities pledged as collateral for public fund deposits, federal treasury tax and loan deposits, FHLB collateral and other non-profit organization deposits to taled $ 197.68 million and $ 195.93 million at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively. The contractual maturities of investment securities at June 30, 2026 were as follows (dollars in thousands). Expected maturities may differ from scheduled maturities due to the prepayment of principal or call provisions. Held to Maturity Available for Sale Amortized Cost Estimated Fair Value Amortized Cost Estimated Fair Value Due within one year $ 25,746 $ 25,488 $ — $ — Due after one year to five years 39,886 37,913 3,130 3,124 Due after five years to ten years 31 140 177 176 Due after ten years 51,924 49,702 88,654 87,184 Total $ 117,587 $ 113,243 $ 91,961 $ 90,484 Credit Quality Indicators and Allowance for Credit Losses Available for Sale Investment Securities The Company assesses each available for sale investment security that is in an unrealized loss position to determine whether the decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis results from a credit loss or other factors. The Company did not record an ACL on any available for sale investment securities at June 30, 2026 or September 30, 2025. As of both dates, the Company considered the unrealized losses across the classes of major security-type to be related to fluctuations in market conditions, primarily interest rates, and not reflective of a deterioration in credit value. The Company expects the fair value of these securities to recover as the securities approach their maturity dates or sooner if market yields decline. The Company does not believe that the unrealized losses are attributed to credit deterioration or issuer or industry specific events. The Company has the ability and intent to hold the investments until their fair value recovers. Held to Maturity Investment Securities The Company measures expected credit losses on held to maturity investment securities, which are comprised of U.S. government agency and U.S. government mortgage-backed securities, private label mortgage-backed securities, municipal securities, and other bonds. The Company’s agency and mortgage-backed securities are issued by U.S. government entities and agencies and are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by the major rating agencies, and have a long history of no credit losses. As such, no ACL has been established for these securities. The ACL on the private label mortgage-backed securities, municipal securities, and other bonds within the held to maturity securities portfolio is calculated using the probability of default/loss given default ("PD/LGD") method. The calculation is completed on a quarterly basis using the default studies provided by an industry leading source. At June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, the ACL on the held to maturity securities portfolio t otaled $ 30,000 and $ 36,000 , respectively. 14 The following tables set forth information for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 regarding activity in the ACL by portfolio segment (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Beginning Allowance Recapture of Credit Losses Ending Allowance Beginning Allowance Recapture of Credit Losses Ending Allowance Held to Maturity MBS: Private label residential $ 31 $ ( 1 ) $ 30 $ 48 $ ( 3 ) $ 45 Bank issued trust preferred securities — — — 2 ( 1 ) 1 Total $ 31 $ ( 1 ) $ 30 $ 50 $ ( 4 ) $ 46 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 Beginning Allowance Recapture of Credit Losses Ending Allowance Beginning Allowance Recapture of Credit Losses Ending Allowance Held to Maturity MBS: Private label residential $ 35 $ ( 5 ) $ 30 $ 55 $ ( 10 ) $ 45 Bank issued trust preferred securities 1 ( 1 ) — 5 ( 4 ) 1 Total $ 36 $ — $ ( 6 ) $ 30 $ 60 $ ( 14 ) $ 46 The ACL on held to maturity securities is included within investment securities held to maturity on the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the ACL are recorded through the provision for (recapture of) credit losses on the consolidated income statement. Accrued interest receivable on held to maturity investment securities totaled $ 321,000 a t June 30, 2026 and is included in accrued interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheet. This amount is excluded from the estimate of expected credit losses. Held to maturity investment securities are typically classified as non-accrual when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about the further collectability of principal or interest. When held to maturity investment securities are placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest credited to income is reversed. The Company ha d $ 29,000 of private label mortgage-backed held to maturity investment securities in non-accrual status at June 30, 2026. The Company monitors the credit quality of investment securities held to maturity using credit ratings from Moody's, S&P and Fitch. The Company monitors the credit ratings on a quarterly basis. The following tables set forth the Company's held to maturity investment securities at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, by credit quality indicator (dollars in thousands): Credit Ratings As of June 30, 2026 AAA/AA/A BBB/BB/B Unrated Total Held to Maturity U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities $ 56,844 $ — $ — $ 56,844 MBS: U.S. government agencies 47,025 — — 47,025 Private label residential 9,615 — 4,103 13,718 Total held to maturity $ 113,484 $ — $ 4,103 $ 117,587 15 Credit Ratings As of September 30, 2025 AAA/AA/A BBB/BB/B Unrated Total Held to Maturity U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities $ 69,646 $ — $ — $ 69,646 MBS: U.S. government agencies 48,735 — — 48,735 Private label residential 12,455 — 4,921 17,376 Municipal securities 605 — — 605 Bank issued trust preferred securities — — 499 499 Total held to maturity $ 131,441 $ — $ 5,420 $ 136,861 Prior to adopting ASU 2016-13 during the year ended September 30, 2024, the Company bifurcated other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") into (1) amounts related to credit losses which are recognized through earnings and (2) amounts related to all other factors which are recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). To determine the component of the gross OTTI related to credit losses, the Company compared the amortized cost basis of the OTTI security to the present value of its revised expected cash flows, discounted using its pre-impairment yield. The revised expected cash flow estimates for individual securities are based primarily on an analysis of default rates, prepayment speeds and third-party analytic reports. Significant judgment by management was required in this analysis that included, but not limited to, assumptions regarding the collectability of principal and interest, net of related expenses, on the underlying loans. The amounts written off due to credit loss remain and continue to be recovered on a cash basis. The following table presents a roll forward of the credit loss component of held to maturity investment securities that have been written down for OTTI with the credit loss component recognized in earnings for the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 (dollars in thousands): Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 Beginning balance of credit loss $ 788 $ 803 Subtractions: Net realized loss previously recorded as credit losses ( 3 ) ( 3 ) Recovery of prior credit loss ( 19 ) ( 6 ) Ending balance of credit loss $ 766 $ 794 16 (3) GOODWILL AND CDI Goodwill is initially recorded when the purchase price paid in a business combination exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is presumed to have an indefinite useful life and is analyzed annually for impairment. The Company performs an annual review during the third quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine if goodwill is impaired. For purposes of goodwill impairment testing, the services offered through the Bank and its subsidiary are managed as one strategic unit and represent the Company's only reporting unit. An assessment of qualitative factors is completed to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the qualitative analysis concludes that further analysis is required, then a quantitative impairment test is completed. The quantitative goodwill impairment test is used to identify the existence of impairment and the amount of impairment loss and compares the reporting unit’s estimated fair value, including goodwill, to its carrying amount. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not considered impaired. If the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the amount of the excess, limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company performed its fiscal year 2026 goodwill impairment test during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 with the assistance of an independent third-party firm specializing in goodwill impairment valuations for financial institutions. Based on this assessment, the Company determined that it is not "more likely than not" that the Company's reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount, and, therefore, goodwill was determined not to be impaired at May 31, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, management believes that there have been no events or changes in the circumstances since May 31, 2026 that would indicate a potential impairment of goodwill. No assurance can be given, however, that the Company will not record an impairment loss on goodwill in the future. If adverse economic conditions or decreases in the Company's stock price and market capitalization were deemed to be other than temporary, they may significantly affect the fair value of the Company's reporting unit and may trigger impairment charges. Any impairment charge could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. CDI represents the future economic benefit of the potential cost savings from acquiring core deposits as part of a business combination compared to the cost of alternative funding sources. CDI is amortized to non-interest expense using an accelerated method based on the estimated runoff of related deposits over a period of ten years. CDI is evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable, with any changes in estimated useful life accounted for prospectively over the revised remaining life. As of June 30, 2026, management believes that there have been no events or changes in circumstances that would indicate a potential impairment of CDI. 17 (4) LOANS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES Loans receivable by portfolio segment consisted of the following at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2026 September 30, 2025 Amount Percent Amount Percent Mortgage loans: One- to four-family (1) $ 299,921 18.5 % $ 317,691 20.1 % Multi-family 214,583 13.2 207,767 13.2 Commercial real estate 646,376 39.9 610,692 38.7 Construction - custom and owner/builder 113,303 7.0 130,341 8.3 Construction - speculative one- to four-family 28,445 1.8 10,745 0.7 Construction - commercial 12,991 0.8 21,818 1.4 Construction - multi-family 91,271 5.6 45,660 2.9 Construction - land development 530 — 15,324 1.0 Land 37,416 2.3 35,952 2.3 Total mortgage loans 1,444,836 89.1 1,395,990 88.6 Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgage 54,971 3.4 50,479 3.2 Other 1,915 0.1 2,034 0.1 Total consumer loans 56,886 3.5 52,513 3.3 Commercial loans: Commercial business 118,852 7.4 126,937 8.1 U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans — — 58 — Total commercial loans 118,852 7.4 126,995 8.1 Total loans receivable 1,620,574 100.0 % 1,575,498 100.0 % Less: Undisbursed portion of construction loans in process ("LIP") 100,275 88,289 Deferred loan origination fees, net 5,399 5,528 ACL 19,249 18,091 Subtotal 124,923 111,908 Loans receivable, net $ 1,495,651 $ 1,463,590 __________________ (1) Does not include one- to four-family loans held for sale totaling $ 2.77 million and $ 1.13 million at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively.

Credit Quality Indicators The Company uses credit risk grades that reflect the Company’s assessment of a loan’s risk or loss potential. The Company categorizes loans into risk grade categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, including current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors such as the estimated fair value of the collateral. The Company uses the following definitions for credit risk ratings as part of the ongoing monitoring of the credit quality of its loan portfolio: Pass: Pass loans are defined as loans that meet acceptable quality underwriting standards. Watch: Watch loans are defined as loans that still exhibit acceptable quality, but have some concerns that justify greater attention. If these concerns are not corrected, a potential for further adverse categorization exists. These concerns could relate to a specific condition peculiar to the borrower, its industry segment or the general economic environment. Special Mention: Special mention loans are defined as loans deemed by management to have some potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the payment prospects of the loan. Substandard: Substandard loans are defined as loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged. Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. If the weakness or weaknesses are not corrected, there is a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained. Doubtful: Loans in this classification have the weaknesses of substandard loans with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make the collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. At June 30, 2026, no loans were classified as doubtful. At September 30, 2025, there was one loan classified as doubtful which was supported by an SBA guarantee of the remaining balance. Loss: Loans in this classification are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off the loan, even though partial recovery may be realized in the future. At June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, there were no loans classified as loss.

construction LIP Allowance for Credit Losses The ACL is an estimate of the expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. The ACL is evaluated and calculated on a collective basis for loans that share similar risk characteristics. For loans that do not share similar risk characteristics and cannot be evaluated on a collective basis, the Company evaluates the loan individually. The Company estimates expected credit losses over the loans' contractual terms, adjusted for expected prepayments. The ACL is calculated for loan segments utilizing loan level information and relevant information from internal and external sources related to past events and current conditions. Management has adopted the discounted cash flow ("DCF") methodology for all segments. The Company incorporates a reasonable and supportable forecast using current period national gross domestic product ("GDP") and national unemployment figures. All loan segments are impacted by those factors. Prepayment rates are established for each segment based on historical averages, which management believes is representative of future prepayment activity. Loans that are evaluated individually are not included in the collective analysis. The ACL on loans that are evaluated individually may be estimated based on their expected cash flows, or in the case of loans for which repayment is expected substantially through the operation or sale of collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, is measured based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified amounts are charged against the ACL. The existence of some or all of the following criteria will generally confirm that a loss has been incurred: the loan is significantly delinquent and the borrower has not demonstrated the ability or intent to bring the loan current; the Company has no recourse to the borrower, or if it does, the borrower has insufficient assets to pay the debt; and/or the estimated fair value of the loan collateral is significantly below the current loan balance, and there is little or no near-term prospect for improvement. Management's evaluation of the ACL is based on ongoing, quarterly assessments of the known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio. Loss factors are based on the Company's historical loss experience with additional consideration and adjustments made for changes in economic conditions, changes in the amount and composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency rates, changes in collateral values, seasoning of the loan portfolio, duration of the current business cycle, a detailed analysis of individually evaluated loans and other factors deemed appropriate by management. Management also assesses the risk related to the reasonable and supportable forecasts. These factors are evaluated on a quarterly basis. Loss rates used by the Company are affected by changes in these factors from quarter to quarter. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's ACL and may require the Company to make adjustments to the ACL based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations. 23 The following tables set forth information for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 regarding activity in the ACL by portfolio segment (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Beginning Allowance Provision for (Recapture of) Credit Losses Charge- Offs Recoveries Ending Allowance Mortgage loans: One- to four-family $ 2,821 $ ( 285 ) $ — $ — $ 2,536 Multi-family 1,639 ( 86 ) — — 1,553 Commercial real estate 7,479 409 — — 7,888 Construction – custom and owner/builder 1,175 324 — — 1,499 Construction – speculative one- to four-family 181 111 — — 292 Construction – commercial 257 81 — — 338 Construction – multi-family 969 484 — — 1,453 Construction – land development 80 ( 68 ) — — 12 Land 684 ( 112 ) — — 572 Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgage 452 ( 88 ) — — 364 Other 51 1 — 1 53 Commercial business loans 2,860 ( 171 ) — — 2,689 Total $ 18,648 $ 600 $ — $ 1 $ 19,249 Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Beginning Allowance Provision for (Recapture of) Credit Losses Charge- Offs Recoveries Ending Allowance Mortgage loans: One- to four-family $ 2,800 $ 93 $ — $ — $ 2,893 Multi-family 1,315 265 — — 1,580 Commercial real estate 6,983 180 — — 7,163 Construction – custom and owner/builder 1,217 25 — — 1,242 Construction – speculative one- to four-family 89 8 — — 97 Construction – commercial 358 ( 101 ) — — 257 Construction – multi-family 543 ( 165 ) — — 378 Construction – land development 375 38 — — 413 Land 852 ( 39 ) — — 813 Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgage 345 66 — — 411 Other 33 4 — 1 38 Commercial business loans 2,615 ( 23 ) — 1 2,593 Total $ 17,525 $ 351 $ — $ 2 $ 17,878 24 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 Beginning Allowance Provision for (Recapture of) Credit Losses Charge- Offs Recoveries Ending Allowance Mortgage loans: One-to four-family $ 2,892 $ ( 356 ) $ — $ — $ 2,536 Multi-family 1,625 ( 72 ) — — 1,553 Commercial real estate 7,147 741 — — 7,888 Construction – custom and owner/builder 1,268 231 — — 1,499 Construction – speculative one- to four-family 112 180 — — 292 Construction – commercial 348 ( 10 ) — — 338 Construction – multi-family 400 1,053 — — 1,453 Construction – land development 412 ( 400 ) — — 12 Land 797 ( 225 ) — — 572 Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgage 435 ( 71 ) — — 364 Other 58 ( 6 ) — 1 53 Commercial business loans 2,597 75 — 17 2,689 Total $ 18,091 $ 1,140 $ — $ 18 $ 19,249 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 Beginning Allowance Provision for (Recapture of) Credit Losses Charge- Offs Recoveries Ending Allowance Mortgage loans: One-to four-family $ 2,632 $ 261 $ — $ — $ 2,893 Multi-family 1,308 272 — — 1,580 Commercial real estate 6,934 229 — — 7,163 Construction – custom and owner/builder 1,328 ( 86 ) — — 1,242 Construction – speculative one-to four-family 128 ( 31 ) — — 97 Construction – commercial 537 ( 280 ) — — 257 Construction – multi-family 456 ( 78 ) — — 378 Construction – land development 335 78 — — 413 Land 793 20 — — 813 Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgage 348 63 — — 411 Other 39 2 ( 4 ) 1 38 Commercial business loans 2,640 190 ( 241 ) 4 2,593 Total $ 17,478 $ 640 $ ( 245 ) $ 5 $ 17,878 25 Non-Accrual Loans When a loan is 90 days delinquent the accrual of interest is generally discontinued and the loan is placed on non-accrual. All interest accrued but not collected for loans placed on non-accrual is reversed out of interest income. Generally, payments received on non-accrual loans are applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the loan. At times interest may be accounted for on a cash basis, depending on the collateral value and the borrower's payment history. A loan is generally not removed from non-accrual until all delinquent principal, interest and late fees have been brought current and the borrower demonstrates repayment ability over a period of not less than six months and all taxes are current. The following tables present an analysis of loans by aging category and portfolio segment at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands): 30–59 Days Past Due 60-89 Days Past Due Non- Accrual (1) Past Due 90 Days or More and Still Accruing Total Past Due Current Total Loans June 30, 2026 Mortgage loans: One- to four-family $ — $ — $ 1,930 $ — $ 1,930 $ 297,991 $ 299,921 Multi-family 18 — — — 18 214,565 214,583 Commercial real estate — — 4,534 — 4,534 641,842 646,376 Construction – custom and owner/builder (2) — — — — — 68,746 68,746 Construction – speculative one- to four-family (2) — — — — — 12,901 12,901 Construction – commercial (2) — — — — — 11,906 11,906 Construction – multi-family (2) — — — — — 52,300 52,300 Construction – land development (2) — — — — — 412 412 Land — — — — — 37,416 37,416 Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgage — — 452 — 452 54,519 54,971 Other — — 20 — 20 1,895 1,915 Commercial business loans — 134 1,620 — 1,754 117,098 118,852 Total $ 18 $ 134 $ 8,556 $ — $ 8,708 $ 1,511,591 $ 1,520,299 (1) Includes loans past due 90 days or more and other loans classified as non-accrual.

The following table is a summary of the amortized cost of collateral dependent non-accrual loans as of June 30, 2026 (in thousands): Recorded Investment Related ACL Mortgage loans: One- to four-family $ 1,930 $ — Commercial real estate 4,534 480 Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgage 452 — Other 20 20 Commercial business loans 1,620 530 Total $ 8,556 $ 1,030 27 At September 30, 2025, the Company had $ 1.31 million of non-accrual loans with an ACL of $ 360,000 and $ 3.10 million of non-accrual loans with no ACL. The following table is a summary of the amortized cost of collateral dependent non-accrual loans as of September 30, 2025 (in thousands): Recorded Investment Related ACL Mortgage loans: One- to four-family $ 1,781 $ — Commercial real estate 159 — Construction - custom and owner/builder 553 — Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgage 602 — Other 22 22 Commercial business loans 1,290 338 Total $ 4,407 $ 360 Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty Occasionally, the Company offers modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty by providing principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, term extensions or any combination of these. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of the forgiveness is charged-off against the ACL for loans. Upon the Company's determination that a modified loan (or portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is charged-off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the ACL for loans is adjusted by the same amount. The ACL on modified loans is measured using the same credit loss estimation methods used to determine the ACL for all other loans held for investment. These methods incorporate the post-modification of loan terms, as well as defaults and charge-offs associated with historical modified loans. The following tables present the amortized cost basis of loans that were experiencing financial difficulty and modified during the nine months ended June 30, 2026, by loan class and modification type (dollars in thousands): Term Extension June 30, 2026 Amortized Cost Basis % of Total Loan Type Financial Effect Home Equity and Second Mortgage $ 54 0.10 % Loan extended five years .

The Company's leases have remaining terms ranging from three to 24 years, and include options to extend the leases for up to a total of fifteen years . Lease extensions are not certain, and the Company evaluates each lease based on the specific circumstances for the location to determine the probability of exercising the extension in the calculation of ROU assets and lease liabilities. The components of lease cost (included in the premises and equipment expense category in the consolidated statements of income) for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Nine Months Ended June 30, Lease cost: 2026 2025 2026 2025 Operating lease cost $ 147 $ 87 $ 404 $ 284 Short-term lease cost — — — — Total lease cost $ 147 $ 87 $ 404 $ 284 The following table provides supplemental information related to operating leases at or for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 (dollars in thousands): At or For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 At or For the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows from operating leases $ 117 $ 306 Weighted average remaining lease term-operating leases 14.5 years 14.5 years Weighted average discount rate-operating leases 4.22 % 4.22 % At or For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 At or For the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows from operating leases $ 84 $ 252 Weighted average lease term-operating leases 5.5 years 5.5 years Weighted average discount rate-operating leases 2.35 % 2.35 % The Company's leases typically do not contain a discount rate implicit in the lease contracts. As an alternative, the weighted average discount rate used to estimate the present value of future lease payments in calculating the value of the ROU asset and lease liability was determined by utilizing the FHLB fixed-rate credit advance borrowing rate for the term correlating to the remaining term of each lease. Maturities of operating lease liabilities at June 30, 2026 for future fiscal years are as follows (dollars in thousands): Remainder of Fiscal 2026 $ 123 Fiscal 2027 494 Fiscal 2028 504 Fiscal 2029 505 Fiscal 2030 499 Thereafter 4,235 Total lease payments 6,360 Less imputed interest 2,037 Total $ 4,323 29 (6) NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without considering any dilutive items. Nonvested shares of restricted stock are included in the computation of basic earnings per share because the holder has voting rights and participates in non-forfeitable dividends during the vesting period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding for items that are dilutive, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the treasury stock method at the average share price for the Company’s common stock during the period. Common stock equivalents arise from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options. Information regarding the calculation of basic and diluted net income per common share for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, is as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended June 30, Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Basic net income per common share computation Numerator – net income $ 7,720 $ 7,100 $ 23,068 $ 20,715 Denominator – weighted average common shares outstanding 7,805,218 7,893,308 7,855,474 7,929,626 Basic net income per common share $ 0.99 $ 0.90 $ 2.94 $ 2.61 Diluted net income per common share computation Numerator – net income $ 7,720 $ 7,100 $ 23,068 $ 20,715 Denominator – weighted average common shares outstanding 7,805,218 7,893,308 7,855,474 7,929,626 Effect of dilutive stock options (1) 50,189 28,454 44,754 33,786 Weighted average common shares outstanding - assuming dilution 7,855,407 7,921,762 7,900,228 7,963,412 Diluted net income per common share $ 0.98 $ 0.90 $ 2.92 $ 2.60 ____________________________________________ (1) For the three months ended June 30, 2026, all outstanding options were included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share. For the nine months ended June 30, 2026, average options to purchase 273 shares of common stock were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, average options to purchase 137,720 and 120,049 shares of common stock, respectively, were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. 30 (7) ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) The changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") by component during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, are as follows (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025 June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025 Changes in fair value of available for sale securities (1) Changes in fair value of available for sale securities (1) Changes in fair value of available for sale securities (1) Changes in fair value of available for sale securities (1) Balance of AOCI at the beginning of period $ ( 350 ) $ ( 670 ) $ ( 298 ) $ 20 Other comprehensive (loss) ( 817 ) ( 105 ) ( 869 ) ( 795 ) Balance of AOCI at the end of period $ ( 1,167 ) $ ( 775 ) $ ( 1,167 ) $ ( 775 ) __________________ (1) All amounts are net of income taxes. (8) STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS The Company maintains one active stock compensation plan, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan"). Under the 2019 Plan, the Company may grant options and awards of restricted stock (with or without performance measures) for up to 350,000 shares of common stock, of which 300,000 shares are reserved for issuance to employees and officers, and 50,000 shares are reserved for issuance to directors and directors emeriti. Shares issued under the 2019 Plan may be purchased in the open market or issued from the Company's authorized and unissued shares. The exercise price of each stock option equals the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Stock options generally vest in equal annual installments over five years beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date and have a maximum contractual term of ten years . Restricted stock awards typically vest in equal annual installments over a three - or five-year period beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date. At June 30, 2026, 133,135 shares of common stock remained available for further issuance under the 2019 Plan, either as stock options or restricted stock awards. The Company's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2014 Plan") expired on January 27, 2025; therefore, no further awards may be granted under the plan. As of June 30, 2026, there were 85,750 options outstanding to purchase shares of common stock that had been previously granted under the 2014 Plan, of which 74,150 were vested and 11,600 were unvested. Stock option activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, is summarized as follows: Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 Number of Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Number of Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Options outstanding, beginning of period 215,530 $ 26.22 306,240 $ 25.21 Exercised ( 61,680 ) 25.84 ( 41,960 ) 19.47 Forfeited ( 1,800 ) 27.68 ( 11,300 ) 28.41 Options outstanding, end of period 152,050 $ 26.35 252,980 $ 26.02 The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

There were no restricted stock awards granted during the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The following table presents the activity related to restricted stock for the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025: Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 Number of Unvested Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Number of Unvested Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Restricted stock outstanding beginning of period 70,450 $ 31.94 49,015 $ 29.28 Forfeited ( 2,280 ) 29.93 ( 1,830 ) 28.70 Vested — — ( 200 ) 27.37 Restricted stock outstanding end of period 68,170 $ 32.00 46,985 $ 29.31 The fair value of restricted stock awards is equal to the fair value of the Company's stock on the date of the grant. The related stock-based compensation expense is recorded over the requisite service period. At June 30, 2026, unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards was $ 1.71 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.25 years. (9) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is defined under GAAP as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of three levels. These levels are: 32 Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2: Significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company's assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of investment securities available for sale and investments in equity securities. The estimated fair values of available for sale investment securities are based upon quoted market prices (Level 1) and market prices of similar securities or observable inputs (Level 2). The estimated fair values of mutual funds are based upon quoted market prices (Level 1). The Company had no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025. The Company's assets measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, were as follows (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2026 Estimated Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Available for sale investment securities MBS: U.S. government agencies $ — $ 90,484 $ — $ 90,484 Investments in equity securities Mutual funds 858 — — 858 Total $ 858 $ 90,484 $ — $ 91,342 September 30, 2025 Estimated Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Available for sale investment securities U.S. government securities $ 4,968 $ — $ — $ 4,968 MBS: U.S. government agencies — 73,272 — 73,272 Investments in equity securities Mutual funds 864 — — 864 Total $ 5,832 $ 73,272 $ — $ 79,104 There were no transfers among Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and the year ended September 30, 2025. The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with GAAP. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market value that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period. The Company uses the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value on a non-recurring basis: Individually Evaluated Collateral-Dependent Loans: Loans for which repayment is substantially expected to be provided through the operation or sale of collateral are considered collateral dependent, and are valued based on the estimated fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell, where applicable. Accordingly, collateral dependent loans are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. OREO and Other Repossessed Assets, net: OREO and other repossessed assets are recorded at estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Estimated fair value is generally determined by management based on a number of factors, including 33 third-party appraisals of estimated fair value in an orderly sale. Estimated costs to sell are based on standard market factors. The valuation of OREO and other repossessed assets is subject to significant external and internal judgment (Level 3). The following table summarizes the balances of assets measured at estimated fair value on a non-recurring basis at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands): Estimated Fair Value Total Estimated June 30, 2026 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value Individually evaluated collateral-dependent loans: Mortgage loans: Commercial real estate $ — $ — $ 3,830 $ 3,830 Commercial business loans — — 667 667 Total loans — — 4,497 4,497 OREO and other repossessed assets — — 221 221 Total $ — $ — $ 4,718 $ 4,718 Estimated Fair Value Total Estimated September 30, 2025 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value Individually evaluated collateral-dependent loans: Commercial business loans $ — $ — $ 177 $ 177 Total loans — — 177 177 OREO and other repossessed assets — — 221 221 Total $ — $ — $ 398 $ 398 The following table presents quantitative information about Level 3 inputs for financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025: Valuation Technique(s) Significant Unobservable Input(s) Range Individually evaluated collateral-dependent loans Market approach Appraised value less estimated selling costs 8 % OREO and other repossessed assets Market approach Lower of appraised value or listing price less estimated selling costs 8 % GAAP requires disclosure of estimated fair values for certain financial instruments. Such estimates are subjective in nature, and significant judgment is required regarding the risk characteristics of various financial instruments at a discrete point in time. Therefore, such estimates could vary significantly if assumptions regarding uncertain factors were to change. In addition, as the Company normally intends to hold the majority of its financial instruments until maturity, it does not expect to realize many of the estimated amounts disclosed. The disclosures also do not include estimated fair value amounts for certain items that are not defined as financial instruments but which may have significant value. The Company does not believe that it would be practicable to estimate a fair value for these types of items as of June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025. Because GAAP excludes certain items from fair value disclosure requirements, any aggregation of the fair value amounts presented would not represent the underlying value of the Company. Additionally, the Company uses the exit price notion in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. 34 The recorded amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments were as follows as of June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2026 Fair Value Measurements Using: Recorded Amount Estimated Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 246,082 $ 246,082 $ 246,082 $ — $ — CDs held for investment 7,964 7,964 7,964 — — Investment securities 208,071 203,727 54,676 149,051 — Investments in equity securities 858 858 858 — — FHLB stock 1,653 1,653 1,653 — — Other investments 3,000 3,000 3,000 — — Loans held for sale 2,774 2,820 2,820 — — Loans receivable, net 1,495,651 1,485,508 — — 1,485,508 Accrued interest receivable 7,321 7,321 7,321 — — Financial liabilities Certificates of deposit 448,226 447,554 — — 447,554 FHLB borrowings 10,000 9,997 — — 9,997 Accrued interest payable 1,790 1,790 1,790 — — September 30, 2025 Fair Value Measurements Using: Recorded Amount Estimated Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 243,428 $ 243,428 $ 243,428 $ — $ — CDs held for investment 7,217 7,217 7,217 — — Investment securities 215,101 210,574 71,870 138,704 — Investments in equity securities 864 864 864 — — FHLB stock 2,045 2,045 2,045 — — Other investments 3,000 3,000 3,000 — — Loans held for sale 1,127 1,159 1,159 — — Loans receivable, net 1,463,590 1,441,850 — — 1,441,850 Accrued interest receivable 7,393 7,393 7,393 — — Financial liabilities Certificates of deposit 442,521 442,024 — — 442,024 FHLB borrowings 20,000 20,009 — — 20,009 Accrued interest payable 1,963 1,963 1,963 — — (10) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued accounting standard update ("ASU") 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . The amendments in this ASU are intended to provide more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate 35 reconciliation and income tax paid information. The ASU requires disclosure in the rate reconciliation of specific categories as well as additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The amendment requires on an annual basis a reconciliation broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity should apply the amendments in this ASU on a prospective basis. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-09 in its annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026. The adoption of this ASU is expected to affect disclosure requirements only. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement (Topic 220): Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures . The amendments in this ASU require disclosure, in the notes to the financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. In conjunction with recent standards that enhanced the disaggregation of revenue and income tax information, the disaggregated expense information will enable investors to better understand the major components of an entity's income statement. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects this ASU to only impact its disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material impact on its business operations or the Company's consolidated financial statements. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement (Subtopic 220-40): Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregations Disclosures: Clarifying the Effective Date . The amendments in this ASU amend the effective date for ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of ASU 2025-01 is permitted. In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-08, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Purchased Loans . The ASU expands the use of the gross-up method for accounting for certain acquired loans, specifically purchased seasoned loans ("PSLs"). This method allows entities to recognize an allowance for credit losses at the acquisition date, which results in the asset's amortized cost basis. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to impact the Company's consolidated financial statements. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270) Narrow-Scope Improvements. The ASU adds additional interim disclosures from various Codification Topics to ASC 270. It requires entities to disclose events that occurred since the end of the last annual reporting period that materially affect the entity. The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects this ASU to only impact its disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material impact on its business operations or the Company's consolidated financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not currently expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. (11) REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606") applies to all contracts with customers to provide goods or services in the ordinary course of business, except for contracts that are specifically excluded from its scope. The majority of the Company's revenues are composed of interest income, deferred loan fee accretion, premium/discount accretion, gains on sales of loans and investments, BOLI net earnings, servicing income on loans sold and other loan fee income, which are not within the scope of ASC 606. Revenue reported as service charges on deposits, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, non-deposit investment fees and escrow fees are within the scope of ASC 606. All of the Company's revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 is recognized in non-interest income with the exception of gains on sales of OREO and gains on sales/disposition of premis es and equipment, which are included in non-interest expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized $ 956,000 in service charges on deposits, $ 1.19 million in ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, $ 42,000 in escrow fees, and $ 17,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales included in "Other, net" in non-interest income on the consolidated statement of income, all considered within the scope of ASC 606. For the nine months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized $ 2.88 million in service charges on deposits, $ 3.52 million in ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, $ 94,000 in escrow fees, and $ 53,000 in fee income from non- 36 deposit investment sales included in "Other, net" in non-interest income on the consolidated statement of income, all considered within the scope of ASC 606. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized $ 966,000 in service charges on deposits, $ 1.26 million in ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, $ 32,000 in escrow fees, and $ 9,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized $ 2.92 million in service charges on deposits, $ 3.71 million in ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, $ 66,000 in escrow fees, and $ 12,000 in fee income from non-deposit investment sales. If a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligation. Descriptions of the Company's revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606 are as follows: • Service Charges on Deposits: The Company earns fees from its deposit customers from a variety of deposit products and services. Non-transaction based fees such as account maintenance fees and monthly statement fees are considered to be provided to the customer under a day-to-day contract with ongoing renewals. Revenue for these non-transaction fees are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Transaction-based fees such as non-sufficient fund charges, stop payment charges and wire fees are recognized at the time the transaction is executed, as the contract duration does not extend beyond the service performed. • ATM and Debit Card Interchange Transaction Fees: The Company earns fees from cardholder transactions conducted through third-party payment network providers which consist of interchange fees earned from the payment networks as a debit card issuer. These fees are recognized when the transaction occurs, but may settle on a daily or monthly basis. • Escrow Fees: The Company earns fees from real estate escrow contracts with customers. The Company receives and disburses money and/or property according to the customer's contract. Fees are recognized when the escrow contract closes. • Fee Income from Non-deposit Investment Sales: The Company earns fees from contracts with customers for investment activities. Revenues are generally recognized monthly and are generally based on a percentage of the customer's assets under management or based on investment solutions that are implemented for the customer. (12) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In the normal course of business, the Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit - worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party. However, such loan to value ratios will subsequently change, based on increases and decreases in the supporting collateral values. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate, land and income-producing commercial properties. A summary of the Company's commitments at June 30, 2026 and 2025, are listed below (in thousands): June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025 Undisbursed portion of construction loans in process (see Note 4) $ 100,275 $ 76,272 Undisbursed lines of credit 123,495 125,623 Commitments to extend credit 41,303 35,233 $ 265,073 $ 237,128 37 The Company maintains a separate ACL related to unfunded loan commitments. Management estimates the amount of expected losses related to unfunded, off-balance sheet commitments over the contractual period in which there is exposure to credit risk from a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless the Company has determined that obligation is unconditionally cancellable. The methodology for calculating the ACL on unfunded loan commitments is similar to the methodology for calculating the ACL on loans but also includes an estimate of the future utilization of the commitment as determined by historical utilization. Credit risk associated with the unfunded commitments is consistent with the loss ratio for each loan segment within the ACL for loans. The ACL on unfunded commitments is recognized in other liabilities and accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets and is adjusted as a provision for (recapture of) credit losses on the consolidated income statements. The ACL on unfunded loan commitments totaled $ 295,000 and $ 413,000 at June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively The following table sets forth information for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, regarding activity in the ACL on unfunded loan commitments (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Beginning ACL $ 386 $ 320 Provision for (recapture of) credit losses ( 91 ) 93 Ending ACL $ 295 $ 413 ACL Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 Beginning ACL $ 432 $ 327 Provision for (recapture of) credit losses ( 137 ) 86 * Ending ACL $ 295 $ 413 *Amount differs from Income Statement due to rounding. The Bank has an employee severance compensation plan which expires in 2027 that provides severance pay benefits to eligible employees in the event of a change in control of Timberland Bancorp or the Bank (as defined in the plan). In general, all employees with two or more years of service are eligible to participate in the plan. Under the plan, in the event of a change in control of Timberland Bancorp or the Bank, eligible employees who are terminated or who terminate employment (but only upon the occurrence of events specified in the plan) within 12 months of the effective date of a change in control would be entitled to a payment based on years of service or officer rank with the Bank. The maximum payment for any eligible employee would be equal to 18 months of the employee’s current compensation. Timberland Bancorp has employment agreements with its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Lending Officer and Chief Technology Officer which provide for severance payments and other benefits if the officers are involuntarily terminated following a change in control of Timberland Bancorp or the Bank. The maximum value of the severance benefits under these agreements is equal to 2.99 times the officer's average annual compensation during the five-year period preceding the effective date of the change in control. Because of the nature of its activities, the Company is subject to various pending and threatened legal actions which arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, liabilities arising from these claims, if any, will not have a material effect on the future consolidated financial position of the Company.
