HOQUIAM, Wash., July 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Timberland Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSBK) (“Timberland” or “the Company”), the holding company for Timberland Bank (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $7.72 million, or $0.98 per diluted common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. This compares to net income of $7.10 million, or $0.90 per diluted common share for the comparable quarter one year ago, and $7.13 million, or $0.90 per diluted common share, for the preceding quarter.
For the first nine months of fiscal 2026, Timberland’s net income increased 11% to $23.07 million, or $2.92 per diluted common share, from $20.72 million, or $2.60 per diluted common share, for the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
“Timberland delivered another strong quarter, with net income and earnings per share up 8% and 9%, respectively, from the prior quarter, and up 9% from the year ago quarter,” stated Dean Brydon, Chief Executive Officer. “Net interest margin expanded, loan growth was solid, and most of our income-related ratios compared favorably with both the linked-quarter and year-over-year. We remain encouraged by our business model and believe we are well positioned as we head into the end of our fiscal year.”
“As a result of Timberland’s strong earnings and capital position, our Board of Directors announced a 3% increase to the quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $0.30 per share, payable on August 24, 2026, to shareholders of record on August 10, 2026,” stated Jonathan Fischer, President and Chief Operating Officer. “This represents the 55th consecutive quarter Timberland will have paid a cash dividend and demonstrates the Board’s continued confidence in our long-term outlook.”
“Overall, this was a relatively clean quarter from an earnings standpoint, with minimal non-recurring items impacting results,” said Marci Basich, Chief Financial Officer. “Net interest margin improved this quarter, up four basis points after a modest decline last quarter and improved five basis points year-over-year. Our balance sheet positioning and proactive deposit pricing strategies continue to help mitigate the headwinds of the current interest rate environment. On the deposit side, total deposits grew 1% from the prior quarter and 6% year over year. Maintaining a disciplined funding mix and stable margin will remain a top priority going forward.”
“Net loans were up 3% from the prior quarter and 4% year-over-year,” Brydon continued. “Even with a shifting rate environment, demand across our lending categories has remained healthy. Credit quality held steady with modest improvements in non-performing asset levels, delinquency levels, and substandard loan levels. Our markets continue to offer solid growth opportunities, and we remain confident in the quality of our loan portfolio and our disciplined approach to credit risk management.”

Operating Results
Operating revenue (net interest income before the provision for credit losses plus non-interest income) for the current quarter increased 4% to $21.79 million from $21.05 million for the preceding quarter and increased 6% from $20.50 million for the comparable quarter one year ago. The increase in operating revenue compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to an increase in interest income on loans receivable, and to a lesser extent, an increase in non-interest income, which was partially offset by an increase in interest expense on deposits. Operating revenue increased 7%, to $64.56 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 from $60.06 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2025, primarily due to increases in interest income on loans receivable, interest income on interest-bearing deposits in banks, and non-interest income which were partially offset by a decrease in interest income from investments securities.
Net interest income increased $562,000, or 3%, to $18.81 million for the current quarter from $18.24 million for the preceding quarter and increased $1.18 million, or 7%, from $17.62 million for the comparable quarter one year ago. The increase in net interest income compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to a $14.62 million increase in the average interest-earning assets, a five-basis point increase in the weighted average yield on interest-bearing assets and, to a lesser extent, a two-basis point decrease in the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 increased $4.19 million, or 8%, to $56.00 million from $51.81 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2025, primarily due to a $99.58 million increase in average interest-earning assets and a 15-basis point decrease in the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities.
Timberland’s NIM for the current quarter increased to 3.85% from 3.81% for the preceding quarter and from 3.80% for the comparable quarter one year ago. The NIM for the current quarter was increased by approximately two basis points due to the collection of $82,000 in pre-payment penalties, non-accrual interest, and late fees, and the accretion of $8,000 of the fair value discount on acquired loans. The NIM for the preceding quarter was increased by approximately one basis point due to the collection of $38,000 in pre-payment penalties, non-accrual interest, and late fees, and the accretion of $10,000 of the fair value discount on acquired loans. The NIM for the comparable quarter one year ago was increased by approximately four basis points due to the collection of $102,000 in pre-payment penalties, non-accrual interest, and late fees, and the accretion of $68,000 of the fair value discount on acquired loans. Timberland’s NIM expanded to 3.84% for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 from 3.74% for the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
A $600,000 provision for credit losses on loans was recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The provision was primarily due to loan portfolio growth and changes in the composition of the loan portfolio. This compares to a $523,000 provision for credit losses on loans for the preceding quarter and a $351,000 provision for credit losses on loans for the comparable quarter one year ago.
Non-interest income increased $181,000, or 6%, to $2.99 million for the current quarter from $2.81 million for the preceding quarter and increased $113,000, or 4%, from $2.88 million for the comparable quarter one year ago. The increase in non-interest income compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to a $91,000 increase in BOLI net earnings, a $62,000 increase in ATM and debit card interchange fees and smaller increases in several other categories. These increases were partially offset by an $86,000 decrease in net gain on sales of loans. Fiscal year-to-date non-interest income increased by 4%, to $8.56 from $8.26 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
Total operating (non-interest) expenses for the current quarter decreased $21,000, or less than 1%, to $11.64 million from $11.66 million for the preceding quarter and increased $471,000, or 4%, from $11.17 million for the comparable quarter one year ago. The slight decrease in operating expenses compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to decreases in salary and employee benefits expense and technology and communications expense and smaller decreases and increases in several other expense categories. The efficiency ratio for the current quarter improved to 53.40% from 55.38% for the preceding quarter and 54.48% for the comparable quarter one year ago. Fiscal year-to-date operating expenses increased 4% to $34.73 million from $33.43 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
The provision for income taxes for the current quarter increased $190,000, or 11%, to $1.93 million from $1.74 million for the preceding quarter, primarily due to higher taxable income. Timberland’s effective income tax rate was 20.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 19.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and 20.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Timberland’s effective income tax rate was 20.0% for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared to 20.1% for the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
Balance Sheet Management
Total assets increased $14.44 million, or 1%, during the quarter to $2.06 billion at June 30, 2026, from $2.05 billion at March 31, 2026, and increased $103.63 million, or 5%, from $1.96 billion one year ago. The increase during the quarter was primarily due to increases in net loans receivable and bank owned life insurance, which were partially offset by a decrease in total cash and cash equivalents.
Liquidity
Timberland has continued to maintain a strong liquidity position, both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet. Liquidity, as measured by the sum of cash and cash equivalents, CDs held for investment, and available for sale investment securities, was 19.3% of total liabilities at June 30, 2026, compared to 22.1% at March 31, 2026, and 17.0% one year ago. Timberland also had secured borrowing line capacity of $791 million available through the FHLB and the Federal Reserve at June 30, 2026. With a strong and diversified deposit base, only 17% of Timberland’s deposits were uninsured or uncollateralized at June 30, 2026. (Note: This calculation excludes public deposits that are fully collateralized.)
Loans
Net loans receivable increased $44.77 million, or 3%, during the quarter to $1.50 billion at June 30, 2026, from $1.45 billion at March 31, 2026, and increased $54.16 million, or 4%, from $1.44 billion at June 30, 2025. The increase during the quarter was primarily due to a $35.26 million increase in commercial real estate loans, a $30.48 million increase in construction loans and smaller increases in several other loan categories. These increases were partially offset by an $11.58 million decrease in one- to four-family loans, a $9.70 million increase in the undisbursed portion of construction loans in process and smaller changes in several other loan categories.

Timberland originated $133.67 million in loans during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to $71.12 million for the preceding quarter and $81.99 million for the comparable quarter one year ago. Timberland continues to originate fixed-rate one- to four-family mortgage loans, a portion of which are sold into the secondary market for asset-liability management purposes and to generate non-interest income. During the current quarter, fixed-rate one- to four-family mortgage loans totaling $7.83 million were sold compared to $11.36 million for the preceding quarter and $5.11 million for the comparable quarter one year ago.
Investment Securities
Timberland’s investment securities and CDs held for investment increased $863,000 or less than 1%, to $216.89 million at June 30, 2026, from $216.03 million at March 31, 2026. The increase was primarily due to the purchase of additional CDs and U.S. government agency mortgage-backed investment securities, which were partially offset by maturities of U.S. Treasury Securities and scheduled amortization.
Bank Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”)
BOLI increased $15.25 million, or 69%, to $37.39 million at June 30, 2026, from $22.14 million at March 31, 2026. The increase was primarily due to $15.00 million in additional BOLI policies purchased during the quarter.
Deposits
Total deposits increased $20.34 million, or 1%, during the quarter to $1.76 billion at June 30, 2026, from $1.74 billion at March 31, 2026, and increased $94.07 million, or 6%, from $1.67 billion at June 30, 2025. The quarter’s increase consisted of a $7.00 million increase in certificates of deposit account balances, a $5.56 million increase in money market account balances, a $4.09 million increase in NOW account balances, a $2.99 million increase in non-interest-bearing deposit account balances, and a $700,000 increase in savings account balances.

Borrowings
Total borrowings decreased $10.00 million, or 50%, to $10.00 million at June 30, 2026, from $20.00 million as March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025.
Shareholders’ Equity and Capital Ratios
Total shareholders’ equity increased $2.12 million, or 1%, to $273.21 million at June 30, 2026, from $271.09 million at March 31, 2026, and increased $16.54 million, or 6%, from $256.66 million at June 30, 2025. The increase in shareholders’ equity during the quarter was primarily due to net income of $7.72 million and proceeds from stock option exercises of $140,000. These increases to shareholders’ equity were partially offset by the payment of $2.27 million in dividends to shareholders and the repurchase of 70,000 shares of common stock for $2.83 million (an average price of $40.49 per share), and a $817,000 increase of accumulated other comprehensive loss. At June 30, 2026, Timberland had 157,977 shares available to be repurchased in accordance with the terms of its existing stock repurchase plan.
Timberland remains well capitalized with a total risk-based capital ratio of 20.87%, a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 12.82%, a tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio (non-GAAP) of 12.61%, and a shareholders’ equity to total assets ratio of 13.26% at June 30, 2026. Timberland’s held to maturity investment securities were $117.59 million at June 30, 2026, with a net unrealized loss of $4.37 million (pre-tax). Although not permitted by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), including these unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) would result in a ratio of shareholders’ equity to total assets of 13.11%, compared to 13.26%, as reported.
Asset Quality
Timberland’s non-performing assets to total assets ratio was 0.43% at June 30, 2026, compared to 0.47% at March 31, 2026, and 0.21% at June 30, 2025. Net recoveries were $1,000 for the current quarter compared to net charge-offs of less than $1,000 for the preceding quarter and net recoveries of $1,000 for the comparable quarter one year ago. During the current quarter, a $600,000 provision for credit losses on loans was made, which was offset by a $91,000 recapture of credit losses on unfunded commitments and a $1,000 recapture of credit losses on investment securities. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) for loans as a percentage of loans receivable was 1.27% at June 30, 2026, compared to 1.27% at March 31, 2026, and 1.23% one year ago.
Total delinquent loans (past due 30 days or more) and non-accrual loans decreased $1.69 million, or 16%, to $8.71 million at June 30, 2026, from $10.40 million at March 31,2026, and increased $2.54 million, or 41%, from $6.17 million at June 30, 2025. Non-accrual loans decreased $849,000 or 9%, to $8.56 million at June 30, 2026 from $9.41 million at March 31, 2026, and increased $4.71 million, or 123%, from $3.84 million at June 30, 2025. Loans graded “Substandard” decreased $874,000, or 9%, to $8.66 million at June 30, 2026 from $9.54 million at March 31, 2026 and decreased $23.71 million, or 73%, from $32.37 million at June 30, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Timberland believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information useful in understanding the Company’s financial performance; however, readers of this report are urged to review these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP results as reported.
Financial measures that exclude intangible assets are non-GAAP measures. To provide investors with a broader understanding of capital adequacy, Timberland provides non-GAAP financial measures for tangible common equity, along with the GAAP measure. Tangible common equity is calculated as shareholders’ equity less goodwill and CDI. In addition, tangible assets equal total assets less goodwill and CDI.
The following table provides a reconciliation of ending shareholders’ equity (GAAP) to ending tangible shareholders’ equity (non-GAAP) and ending total assets (GAAP) to ending tangible assets (non-GAAP).
