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") which purchased in the open market, with funds borrowed from the Company,
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 provides commercial and consumer banking services to individuals and businesses located primarily on the Olympic Peninsula in the State of Washington. These services include deposit and lending transactions that are supplemented with other 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 fiscal year ended
June 30, 2016
. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been included. Operating results for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
June 30, 2017
. 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"), mortgage servicing rights, fair value of financial instruments, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the valuation of impaired loans.
The Company completed its stock offering and became a public company on
January 29, 2015
. The Conversion was accounted for as a change in corporate form with the historic basis of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and equity unchanged as a result.
Principles of consolidation
- The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Northwest Bancorp; its wholly owned subsidiary, First Federal; and First Federal's wholly owned subsidiary, North Olympic Peninsula Services, Inc. ("NOPS"), majority-owned Craft3 Development IV, LLC ("Craft3"), and majority-owned 202 Master Tenant, LLC ("Master Tenant"). NOPS was dissolved on February 12, 2016, at which time the building owned by NOPS and rented in whole to First Federal became the property of the Bank. Craft3 is a partnership investment formed to provide a loan qualifying under the New Markets Tax Credit ("NMTC") rules. The Craft3 partnership was a
seven
year commitment, commensurate with the NMTC period, which expired June 6, 2015. First Federal subsequently entered a membership redemption and assignment agreement which terminated its membership interest in the Craft3 partnership effective September 30, 2015. In August 2016 First Federal entered into a partnership with the Peninsula College Foundation forming 202 Master Tenant, LLC. An initial equity contribution of
$274,000
was made in September 2016 with a final contribution of
$1.1 million
due once a historic tax credit has been granted and all remaining items outlined in the agreement satisfied. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(Unaudited)
Subsequent Events
- The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure and determined there are no such events or transactions requiring recognition or disclosure.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
- In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09,
Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting
. This ASU includes provisions intended to simplify various aspects related to how share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has early-adopted this ASU.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15,
Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments
. The ASU provides specific guidance on eight classification issues in order to achieve more consistent reporting. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-15 will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated 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.
Note 2 - Securities
The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and estimated fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale and held-to-maturity at

The Company may hold certain investment securities in an unrealized loss position that are not considered other than temporarily impaired ("OTTI"). At
September 30, 2016
, there were
17
investment securities with
$954,000
of unrealized losses and a fair value of approximately
$56.2 million
. At
June 30, 2016
, there were
15
investment securities with
$1.3 million
of unrealized losses and a fair value of approximately
$65.6 million
.
We believe that the unrealized losses on our investment securities relate principally to the general change in interest rates and illiquidity, and not credit quality, that has occurred since the initial purchase, and such unrecognized losses or gains will continue to vary with general interest rate level 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
September 30, 2016
or
2015
.

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

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

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. In the process of identifying loans as impaired, management takes into consideration factors that include payment history and status, collateral value, financial condition of the borrower, and the probability of collecting scheduled payments in the future. Minor payment delays and insignificant payment shortfalls typically do not result in a loan being classified as impaired. The significance of payment delays and shortfalls is considered by management on a case-by-case basis after taking into consideration the totality of circumstances surrounding the loans and the borrowers, including payment history and amounts of any payment shortfall, length and reason for delay, and likelihood of return to stable performance. 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 First Federal may 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 particular 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 sufficient risk to warrant classification as substandard or doubtful but possess identified weaknesses are designated as either watch or special mention assets; risk ratings 4 and 5 in our risk rating system, respectively. At
September 30, 2016
and
June 30, 2016
, First Federal had
$4.0 million
and
$4.6 million
, respectively, of loans classified as substandard and
no
loans classified as doubtful or loss. 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 granted can generally be described in the following categories:
Rate modification
- A modification in which the interest rate is changed.
Term modification
- A modification in which the maturity date, timing of payments, or frequency of payments is changed.
Payment modification
- A modification in which the dollar amount of the payment is changed. Interest-only modifications in which a loan is converted to interest-only payments for a period of time are included in this category.
Combination modification
- Any other type of modification, including the use of multiple categories above.
Upon identifying a receivable as a TDR loan, First Federal classifies the loan as impaired for purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses. This requires the loan to initially be evaluated individually for impairment, generally based on the expected cash flows under the new terms discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rates. For TDR loans that subsequently
21
FIRST NORTHWEST BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
default, the method of determining impairment is generally the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Certain qualifying TDR loans are subsequently measured for impairment using the factor for the corresponding segment and risk rating.
TDR loans may be upgraded in their classification and placed on accrual status once there is a sustained period of repayment performance, usually six months or longer, and there is a reasonable assurance that repayment will continue. First Federal allows reclassification of a troubled debt restructuring back into the general loan pool (as a non-troubled debt restructuring) if the borrower is able to refinance the loan at then-current market rates and meet all of the underwriting criteria of First Federal required of other borrowers. The refinance must be based on the borrower’s ability to repay the debt and no special concessions of rate and/or term are granted to the borrower.

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.
Under current Federal income tax regulations, charitable contribution deductions are limited to 10% of taxable income. Due to this limitation, the Company currently has a valuation allowance of
$1.9 million
for financial statement reporting purposes related to its contribution to the Foundation. The contribution carryforward and related valuation allowance will expire in 2020. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company evaluates whether its deferred tax assets will be realized and adjusts the amount of its valuation allowance, if necessary.
The effective tax rates were
33.9%
and
25.3%
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
and
2015
, respectively. The Company's tax rate is reduced from the statutory tax rate in part as a result of permanent tax exclusions of noninterest income from bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI") and tax-exempt interest.
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. Certain of the Company's nonvested restricted stock awards qualify as participating securities.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the components used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share for the
three months ended

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 in the open market
8%
of the common stock issued in the Conversion for a total of
1,048,029
shares at an average price of $
12.45
per share with funds borrowed from the Company. It is anticipated that the Bank will make contributions to the ESOP in amounts necessary to amortize the ESOP loan payable to the Company over a period of
20
years. At
September 30, 2016
, the weighted average interest rate paid on the ESOP loan payable was
2.46%
per annum.
Shares purchased by the ESOP with the loan proceeds are held in a suspense account and allocated to ESOP participants on a pro rata basis as principal and interest payments are made annually by the ESOP to the Company. 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. Payments of principal and interest are due annually on
June 30
. No payment of principal or interest was made during the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
.
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
September 30, 2016
and
2015
was
$195,000
and
$148,000
, respectively.

Note 8 - Stock-based Compensation
On
November 16, 2015
, the Company's shareholders approved the First Northwest Bancorp 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "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 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 EIP is
1,834,050
. Shares of common stock issued under the EIP may be authorized but unissued shares or repurchased shares.
During the

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 a particular instrument, assumptions must be made to determine their fair value. Such instruments are classified as Level 3.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis
- Assets and liabilities are considered to be fair valued on a recurring basis if fair value is measured regularly (i.e., daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly). The following tables show the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates indicated:

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. Fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Company's financial instruments:
29
FIRST NORTHWEST BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Financial instruments with book value equal to fair value
- The fair value of financial instruments that are short-term or reprice frequently and that have little or no risk are considered to have a fair value equal to book value. These instruments include cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits with banks, FHLB stock, accrued interest receivable, and accrued interest payable. FHLB stock is not publicly traded, however, it may be redeemed on a dollar-for-dollar basis, for any amount the Bank is not required to hold, subject to the FHLB's discretion. The fair value is therefore equal to the book value.
Securities
- Fair values for investment securities are primarily measured using information from a third-party pricing service. The pricing service uses evaluated 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 held for sale
- The fair value of loans held for sale is based on quoted market prices from Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), which are updated daily and represent prices at which loans are exchanged in high volumes and in a liquid market.
Loans receivable, net
- Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type, including fixed and variable one- to four-family residential real estate, commercial, and consumer loans. There is an accurate and reliable secondary market for one- to four-family residential mortgage production, and available market benchmarks are used to establish discount factors for estimating fair value for these types of loans. Commercial and consumer loans use market benchmarks when available; however, due to the varied term structures and credit issues involved, they mainly rely on cash flow projections and repricing characteristics within the loan portfolio. These amounts are discounted further by embedded probable losses expected to be realized in the portfolio.
Valuations of impaired loans, real estate owned and repossessed assets are periodically performed by management, and the fair values of these loans are carried at the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated costs to sell. Fair value of the underlying collateral may be determined using an appraisal performed by a qualified independent appraiser.
Mortgage servicing rights
- The estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts, when available, or alternatively, is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.
Deposits
- The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as non-interest bearing deposits, savings and interest checking accounts, and money market accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand as of
September 30, 2016
and
June 30, 2016
. The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Borrowings
- The fair value of FHLB advances and other borrowings are calculated using a discounted cash flow method, adjusted for market interest rates and terms to maturity.
Off-balance-sheet financial instruments
- Commitments to extend credit represent all off-balance-sheet financial instruments. The fair value of these commitments is not significant.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward‑looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact, are based on certain assumptions and are generally identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates” or similar expressions. Forward‑looking statements include, but are not limited to:
•
statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;
•
statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;
•
statements regarding the quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and
•
estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits.
These forward‑looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward‑looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:
•
changes in general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market area, that are worse than expected;
•
the credit risks of our lending activities, including changes in the level and trend of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in our allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses that may be impacted by deterioration in the housing and commercial real estate markets;
•
fluctuations in the demand for loans, the number of unsold homes, land and other properties and fluctuations in real estate values in our market area;
•
a decrease in the secondary market demand for loans that we originate for sale;
•
management’s assumptions in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses;
•
our ability to control operating costs and expenses, especially new costs associated with our operation as a public company;
•
whether our management team can implement our operational strategy, including but not limited to our loan growth;
•
our ability to successfully integrate any newly acquired assets, liabilities, customers, systems, and management personnel into our operations and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames and any goodwill charges related thereto;
•
our success in opening new branches;
•
increases in premiums for deposit insurance;
•
the use of estimates in determining fair value of certain of our assets, which estimates may prove to be incorrect and result in significant declines in valuation;
•
changes in the levels of general interest rates, and the relative differences between short and long-term interest rates, deposit interest rates, our net interest margin and funding sources;
•
increased competitive pressures among financial services companies;
•
our ability to attract and retain deposits;
•
changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;
•
our ability to successfully manage our growth in compliance with regulatory requirements;
31
•
results of examinations of us by the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions, Department of Banks, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, or other regulatory authorities, including the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, require us to increase our reserve for loan losses, write-down assets, change our regulatory capital position or affect our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, which could adversely affect our liquidity and earnings;
•
legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business, including the effects of the Dodd-Frank Act and Basel III, changes in regulatory policies and principles, or the interpretation of regulatory capital or other rules;
•
adverse changes in the securities markets;
•
changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the financial institutions regulatory agencies, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or the Financial Accounting Standards Board;
•
costs and effects of litigation, including settlements and judgments;
•
inability of key third-party vendors to perform their obligations to us; and
•
other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technical factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services and other risks described elsewhere in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including this Form 10-Q.
These developments could have an adverse impact on our financial position and our results of operations.
Any of the forward looking statements that we make in this report and in other public statements we make may turn out to be wrong because of inaccurate assumptions we might make, because of the factors illustrated above or because of other factors that we cannot foresee. Any forward-looking statements are based upon management’s beliefs and assumptions at the time they are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this document or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those contained in such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking statements discussed in this report might not occur, and you should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
General
First Northwest Bancorp (or the "Company") is a bank holding company which primarily engages in the business activity of its subsidiary, First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles ("First Federal" or the "Bank"). First Federal is a community-oriented financial institution primarily serving the North Olympic Peninsula region of Washington. We have eleven banking locations in Washington State, eight of which are located within Clallam and Jefferson counties, one in Kitsap County, and two in Whatcom County. We anticipate opening a Home Lending Center in Seattle, Washington during the second quarter of fiscal 2017, focused on the origination of loans secured by one- to four-family residential properties, which may be sold into the secondary market or retained in our loan portfolio, subject to management's growth and investment objectives. We offer a wide range of products and services focused on the lending and depository needs of the communities we serve. Historically, lending activities have been primarily directed toward the origination of first lien one- to four-family mortgage loans, and, to a lesser extent, commercial and multi-family real estate loans, construction and land loans (including lot loans), commercial business loans, and consumer loans, consisting primarily of home equity loans and lines of credit. While we have a large concentration of first lien one- to four-family mortgage loans, we have revised our operating strategy to diversify our loan portfolio, expand our deposit product offerings, and enhance our infrastructure. We have increased the origination of higher-yielding commercial real estate, multi-family real estate, and construction loans, and decreased reliance on originating and retaining longer-term, fixed-rate, residential mortgage loans. We may sell conforming single-family owner-occupied fixed-rate mortgage loans into the secondary market to increase noninterest income and improve our interest rate risk, or we may retain select 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.
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
32
flows are influenced by a number of factors, including interest rates paid on competing time deposits, available alternative investments, account maturities, and the overall level of personal income and savings. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for funds, the number and quality of lenders, and regional economic cycles.
Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, which is the interest that we pay on our deposits and borrowings. Changes in levels of interest rates 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, 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 probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio. 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 interest income.
The noninterest expenses we incur in operating our business consist of salaries and employee benefits and expenses, occupancy and equipment expenses, federal deposit insurance premiums and regulatory assessments, data processing expenses, expenses related to real estate and personal property owned and other miscellaneous expenses.
Salaries and employee benefits consist primarily of salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for health insurance, retirement plans and other employee benefits, including employee compensation expenses stemming from recognition of expense related to the ESOP and the adoption of the new equity incentive plan. The actual amount of these new stock-related compensation and benefit expenses are based on the fair market value of the shares of common stock at specific points in the future, and it is difficult to determine exactly what those costs will be.

, to
$670.2 million
at
September 30, 2016
, from

0.7%
, to
$17.0 million
at
September 30, 2016
from
$16.9 million
at
June 30, 2016
, as we continue to focus on increasing our commercial lending activity.
Additionally, the balance of construction and land loans increased
$2.0 million
during the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
to
$52.3 million
at
September 30, 2016
from
$50.4 million
at
June 30, 2016
. Our construction loans are geographically disbursed throughout the State of Washington and, as a result, these loans are susceptible to risks that may be different than the risks of construction lending in our primary market area. We manage all of our construction lending by utilizing a licensed third party vendor to assist us in monitoring our construction projects throughout the state of Washington. There were
$38.2 million
in undisbursed construction commitments at
September 30, 2016
, an increase of
$8.3 million
compared to
$29.9 million
at
June 30, 2016
. Undisbursed construction commitments at
September 30, 2016
included
$16.5 million
of one- to four-family
33
residential,
$7.4 million
of multi-family residential, and
$14.3 million
of commercial real estate. Commercial real estate construction commitments include
$10.9 million
of one- to four-family speculative construction projects, of which $7.8 million is located in Kitsap County, $2.1 million in King County, and $907,000 in Thurston County, Washington.
There was also an increase in other consumer loans of
$1.6 million
during
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, primarily as a result of our indirect auto lending program. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in home equity loans of
$156,000
. We continue to focus on increasing our loan balances as a percentage of earning assets.

During the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, the Company originated
$56.7 million
of loans, of which
$30.3 million
, or
53.4%
, were originated in the North Olympic Peninsula,
$26.3 million
, or
46.4%
, in the Puget Sound region of Washington, and
$88,000
, or
0.2%
, in other areas in Washington. During the same period, we purchased
$30.3 million
and originated
$17.1 million
of one- to four-family residential loans, of which
$10.2 million
were sold into the secondary market. As lending activity increases from the opening of our Home Lending Center in Seattle, Washington, we intend to retain in our portfolio originations of one- to four-family residential loans in order to meet our loan growth objectives, while selling off excess production into the secondary market, and relying less on the purchase of one- to four-family residential loan pools.
Our allowance for loan losses increased
$443,000
, or
6.1%
, from
$7.2 million
at
June 30, 2016
to
$7.7 million
at
September 30, 2016
, primarily due to an increase in total loans during the quarter. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans remained the same at
1.2%
of total loans at both
September 30, 2016
and
June 30, 2016
. There was no material change in our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans during the period as o
ur asset quality has remained stable. We believe our allowance for loan losses is adequate, with normal fluctuations in the balance of nonperforming assets and other credit quality measures expected as we increase our loan portfolio.

During the three months ended

, total investment securities decreased
$21.9 million
, or
6.8%
, to
$302.0 million
at
September 30, 2016
, from
$323.9 million
at
June 30, 2016
. Mortgage-backed securities totaled
$207.6 million
at
September 30, 2016
, a decrease of
$16.3 million
, or
7.3%
, from
$223.9 million
at
June 30, 2016
. Other investment securities, including municipal bonds and other asset-backed securities, were
$94.4 million
at
September 30, 2016
, a decrease of
$5.6 million
, or
5.6%
, from
$100.0 million
at
June 30, 2016
. As of
September 30, 2016
, the investment portfolio, including mortgage-backed securities, had an estimated projected average life and average repricing term of
4.2
years and
3.7
years, respectively, based on the interest rate environment at that time. The investment portfolio contains
83.0%
of amortizing securities at
September 30, 2016
, and the projected average life of our securities may vary due to prepayment activity, which, particularly in the mortgage-backed securities portfolio, is generally affected by changing interest rates. Management continues to focus on improving the mix of earning assets by originating loans and decreasing securities as a percentage of earning assets; however, we may purchase investment securities as a source of interest income in lieu of carrying higher cash balances at nominal interest rates. 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
$38.9 million
, or
4.7%
, to
$859.2 million
at
September 30, 2016
, from
$820.4 million
at
June 30, 2016
. This increase was primarily the result of deposit account balances increasing
$53.0 million
, or
7.3%
, to
$776.3 million
at
September 30, 2016
, from
$723.3 million
at
June 30, 2016
. Transaction, savings, and money market account deposits increased
$43.7 million
, or
7.7%
, to
$607.9 million
at
September 30, 2016
from
$564.2 million
at
June 30, 2016
, including an increase in personal and business transaction accounts of
$12.1 million
and
$9.4 million
, respectively. Deposit account increases were primarily the result of our continuing efforts to expand commercial and consumer deposit relationships in Silverdale and Bellingham, Washington, as well as within our historic Clallam and Jefferson County, Washington locations.
Borrowings decreased
$5.6 million
, or
6.9%
, from
$80.7 million
at
June 30, 2016
to
$75.1 million
at
September 30, 2016
, as a result of repayment on our Fed Funds advance account from the FHLB.
Equity
.
Total shareholders' equity decreased
$467,000
, or
0.2%
, from
$189.7 million
at
June 30, 2016
to
$189.3 million
at
September 30, 2016
, primarily due to a net decrease of $1.1 million related to the repurchase and
37
award of shares of restricted common stock under the Company's 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and decreases in unrealized changes in market values of available for sale securities of
$236,000
, partially offset by employee stock ownership plan shares committed to be released of
$195,000
and net income of
$651,000
during the quarter.
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended
September 30, 2016
and
2015
General.
The Company recorded net income for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
of
$651,000
compared to net income of
$1.2 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
, a decrease of
$577,000
, or
47.0%
, primarily as a result of an increase in noninterest expense of
$1.5 million
.
Net Interest Income.
Net interest income increased
$1.1 million
to
$7.4 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, from
$6.3 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in interest income related to the increased average volume of loans receivable.
The net interest margin increased
28
basis points to
3.06%
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, from
2.78%
for the same period in
2015
. The net interest margin increased due primarily to an increase in the average balance of total loans receivable earning higher yields and a reduction in lower yielding cash and investment alternatives, as well as increases in the average yield of investment and mortgage-backed securities. Reduced borrowing costs related to the prepayment of long-term FHLB advances also contributed to improved margins during the quarter ended
September 30, 2016
, as compared to the same period one year prior. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits in banks decreased
$17.8 million
to
$15.1 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
from
$32.9 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
. Of the
$1.1 million
increase in net interest income during the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
compared to the same period in
2015
,
$1.3 million
was the result of an increase in volume offset by a decrease of
$246,000
attributable to changes in rates. Loans receivable was the primary contributor to the increase in net interest income with a
$1.6 million
increase due to volume offset by a
$343,000
decrease due to rate. The yield on average interest-earning assets increased
24
basis points to
3.56%
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, compared to
3.32%
for the same period in the prior year, due primarily to the increase in the average balance of loans receivable and the average yield earned on investment securities. The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities decreased
seven
basis points to
0.68%
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, compared to
0.75%
for the same period in the prior year, due primarily to the decrease in the average balance and rate paid on FHLB borrowings.
Interest Income.
Total interest income increased
$1.0 million
, or
13.3%
, to
$8.5 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
from
$7.5 million
for the comparable period in
2015
. Interest income on loans increased
$1.2 million
, or
21.8%
, during the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, primarily reflecting an increase in the average balance of loans receivable to
$629.3 million
at
September 30, 2016
from
$490.3 million
at
September 30, 2015
, combined with a decrease in average yield to
4.27%
at
September 30, 2016
from
4.49%
at
September 30, 2015
, as higher yielding loans were repaid and replaced with loans at lower average yields.
Interest income on investment securities decreased
$140,000
to
$649,000
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
compared to
$789,000
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
, primarily the result of a decrease in the average balance of
$41.0 million
, or
30.0%
, to
$95.8 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
compared to
$136.8 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
. The average yield on investment securities for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
increased
40
basis points due primarily to investments purchased with higher yields compared to the same period in
2015
.
Interest income on mortgage backed securities decreased
$78,000
primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of
$24.3 million
to
$216.0 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
from
$240.3 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
. The average yield on mortgage-backed securities for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
increased
eight
basis points, primarily due to investments purchased with higher yields compared to the same period in
2015
.

$38,000
, or
3.1%
, and was
$1.2 million
for both the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
and 2015. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
compared to the same period in
2015
primarily due to a lower average balance and cost of borrowings offset by increases in the average balance and cost of deposits. The rates paid on money market accounts and certificates of deposit increased as the result of targeted promotional efforts in new and existing market areas.
The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased
$65.5 million
, or
11.6%
, to
$631.8 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
from
$566.3 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
, primarily the result of an increase in the average balance of money market accounts and certificates of deposit of
$36.9 million
and
$17.2 million
, respectively. The average balances of both transaction and savings accounts also increased by
$6.3 million
and
$5.0 million
, respectively. These increases are primarily the result of pricing promotions and the development of consumer and commercial customer relationships as we continue to focus on increasing our customer deposit base in new and existing markets.
Borrowing costs declined
$184,000
to
$542,000
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
from
$726,000
for the comparable period in
2015
due to a decline of
$22.1 million
in the average balance of borrowings.

Provision for Loan Losses.
The provision for loan losses was
$350,000
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
compared to no provision for loan losses during the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
, due primarily to the growth in our loan portfolio. We continue to see improvement in our asset quality as well, as reflected in the decrease in nonperforming loans, classified loans, and ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans. These improvements are primarily a result of improving economic conditions. Management considers the allowance for loan losses at
September 30, 2016
to be adequate to cover probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. While management believes the estimates and assumptions used in its determination of the adequacy of the allowance are
39
reasonable, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will not be proven incorrect in the future, or that the actual amount of future provisions will not exceed the amount of past provisions or that any increased provisions that may be required will not adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of the amount of our allowance for loan losses is subject to review by bank regulators, as part of the routine examination process, which may result in the establishment of additional reserves based upon their judgment or information available to them at the time of their examination.

Noninterest Income.
Noninterest income increased
$181,000
, or
14.3%
, to
$1.4 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, from
$1.3 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2015
, primarily as a result of an increase in net gain on sale of loans of
$227,000
due to selling, rather than retaining in portfolio, a portion of our originations of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. We also had an increase of
$131,000
in the cash surrender value of BOLI that was primarily a result of changes to policies underlying a portion of BOLI. The changes in policies produced a higher return on BOLI than for the comparable period in 2015. We also had significant improvements in returns on the underlying investments held by existing BOLI. The purchase of an additional $10.0 million of BOLI during the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
also contributed to the increase in BOLI income. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in other income of
$166,000
, primarily the result of income of $140,000 recognized during the quarter ended
September 30, 2015
related to the dissolution of our Craft3 subsidiary.

Noninterest Expense.
Noninterest expense increased

, or

, to
$7.5 million
for the
three months ended
September 30, 2016
, compared to
$5.9 million
for the same period in
2015
, primarily as a result of an increase in compensation and benefits of
$887,000
compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in compensation and benefits expense is partially attributable to stock awards issued during the quarter ended
September 30, 2016
as part of our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, which will be expensed over a five year vesting period, resulting in additional compensation and benefits of
$256,000
compared to the same quarter in 2015. We
40
incurred increased compensation and benefits expenses related to the addition of personnel in loan production, staff and management of new branch locations, and support staff and management added in support of our expansion and growth efforts. Real estate owned and repossessed assets expense increased
$381,000
to
$39,000
for the three months ended
September 30, 2016
compared to income of
$342,000
for the same period in 2015, primarily the result of a gain on the sale of a commercial real estate property of $352,000 during the three months ended
September 30, 2015
. In addition, occupancy, equipment, depreciation and amortization expense increased due to our market expansion and growth. We expect further increases in noninterest expenses related to the opening and operations of our Home Lending Center in Seattle, Washington, which we anticipate will occur during the second quarter of fiscal 2017. We believe that these expenses are necessary to support and maintain the infrastructure needed for prudent and sustainable growth.
The following table provides an analysis of the changes in the components of noninterest expense for the periods shown:

Average Balances, Interest and Average Yields/Cost
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities as well as the total dollar amounts of interest income from average interest‑earning assets and interest expense on average interest‑bearing liabilities, resultant yields, interest rate spread, net interest margin (otherwise known as net yield on interest‑earning assets), and the ratio of average interest‑earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities. Also presented are the weighted average yields on interest-earning assets, rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant spread at
September 30, 2016
and
2015
. Income and all average balances are monthly average balances, which management deems to be not materially different than daily averages. Nonaccruing loans have been included in the table as loans carrying a zero yield.

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
September 30, 2016
and the year ended
June 30, 2016
, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions likely to have a material effect on the 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 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
September 30, 2016
, cash and cash equivalents totaled
$29.8 million
. Securities classified as available-for-sale, whose aggregate market value exceeds cost, provide additional sources of liquidity and had a market value of
$247.1 million
at
September 30, 2016
. In addition, at
September 30, 2016
, we had FHLB stock of
$4.2 million
and have pledged collateral to support borrowings from the FHLB of
$75.1 million
. We have also established a borrowing arrangement with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco; however, no collateral has been pledged as of
September 30, 2016
.
44
At
September 30, 2016
, we had
$514,000
in loan commitments outstanding and an additional
$75.8 million
in undisbursed loans and standby letters of credit, including
$38.2 million
in undisbursed construction loan commitments.
Certificates of deposit due within one year of
September 30, 2016
totaled
$57.9 million
, or
34.4%
of certificates of deposit. The large percentage of certificates of deposit that mature within one year reflects customers' hesitancy to invest their funds for longer periods at historically low interest rates. Management believes, based on past experience, that a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will be renewed or rolled into money market accounts. If these maturing deposits are not renewed, however, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit and borrowings. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered. 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, which is presently comprised of 11 banking locations throughout our market area, and the general cash flows from our existing lending and investment activities, will afford us sufficient 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
September 30, 2016
, the Company (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of
$40.7 million
.
Capital Resources
At
September 30, 2016
, shareholders' equity totaled
$189.3 million
, or
18.1%
of total assets. Our book value per share of common stock was
$14.60
at
September 30, 2016
, compared to
$14.97
at
June 30, 2016
. Consistent with our goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy for First Federal is to maintain its “well-capitalized” status in accordance with regulatory standards.
At
September 30, 2016
, the Bank and consolidated Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements, and the Bank was considered "well capitalized" under FDIC regulatory capital guidelines.

As a small bank holding company, First Northwest Bancorp is not required to file regulatory ratios until March 31, 2017. Ratios were calculated voluntarily in preparation of the filing requirement.
In addition to the minimum common equity Tier 1 ("CET1"), Tier 1 and total capital ratios, the Bank now has to maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional CET1 capital above the required minimum levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary
45
bonuses based on percentages of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions. This new capital conservation buffer requirement began to be phased in starting in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented to an amount equal to 2.5% of risk-weighted assets in January 2019.
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 fiscal year ended
June 30, 2016
.
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
September 30, 2016
, 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 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
September 30, 2016
, 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
46
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.
