(1) Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of liabilities to fund those assets. Interest earned includes actual interest earned on segment assets and, if the segment has excess liabilities, interest credits for providing funding to the other segment. The cost of liabilities includes interest expense on segment liabilities and, if the segment does not have enough liabilities to fund its assets, a funding charge based on the cost of assigned liabilities to fund segment assets.
(2) Noninterest income includes activity from certain residential mortgage loans that were initially originated for sale and measured at fair value, and subsequently transferred to loans held for investment. Gains and losses from changes in fair value for these loans are reported in earnings as a component of noninterest income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a net decrease in fair value of $520,000 and a net increase in fair value of $57,000, respectively, as compared to a net decrease in fair value of $516,000 and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were $14.3 million and $14.9 million, respectively, in residential mortgage loans recorded at fair value as they were previously transferred from loans held for sale to loans held for investment.
Asset Summary
Total assets increased $122.8 million, or 4.4%, to $2.91 billion at June 30, 2023, compared to $2.78 billion at March 31, 2023, and increased $506.4 million, or 21.1%, from $2.40 billion at June 30, 2022. The quarter over linked quarter increase in total assets included increases in total cash and cash equivalents of $73.9 million, loans receivable, net of $42.8 million, certificates of deposit (“CDs”) at other financial institutions of $10.0 million, other assets of $7.9 million, and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock of $2.7 million, partially offset by decreases in loans held for sale (“HFS”) of $6.6 million, securities available-for-sale of $6.5 million, and core deposit intangible (“CDI”), net of $1.0 million. The increases in cash and cash equivalents and CDs at other financial institutions was the result of management’s decision to maintain excess liquidity as a result of the recent turmoil in the banking industry following the failure of several banks. The $506.4 million increase in total assets at June 30, 2023, compared to June 30, 2022 was primarily due to organic loan growth funded through deposits received from the purchase of seven retail branches from Columbia State Bank completed on February 24, 2023 (“Branch Acquisition”). The year over year increase includes increases in loans receivable, net of $396.4 million, total cash and cash equivalents of $103.4 million, CDI, net of $15.6 million, CDs at other financial institutions of $9.8 million, other assets of $7.3 million, premises and equipment, net of $5.6 million, accrued interest receivable of $3.7 million, operating lease right-of-use of $2.6 million, goodwill of $1.3 million, deferred tax asset, net of $1.1 million, partially offset by decreases in securities available-for-sale of $22.0 million due to declines in fair value, loans HFS of $18.3 million, and servicing rights of $889,000.

The quarter over linked quarter saw a $27.2 million increase in consumer loans and a $16.3 million increase in commercial business loans, with the largest increases occurring in indirect home improvement loans which increased $26.2 million or 4.9%, and commercial and industrial loans which increased $13.7 million or 6.1%, respectively. Total real estate loans decreased slightly, primarily as a result of a $25.4 million decrease in construction and development loans, partially offset by increases in one-to-four-family loans (excluding loans HFS) of $20.6 million, commercial real estate loans of $3.2 million, and home equity loans of $1.7 million.Originations of one-to-four-family loans to purchase and to refinance a home for the periods indicated were as follows:

During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold $127.0 million of one-to-four-family loans compared to $77.3 million during the previous quarter and $196.3 million during the same quarter one year ago. The decrease in loan purchase and refinance activity, as well as sales activity, compared to the comparable period in 2022 reflects the impact of rising market interest rates and low available housing inventory in our market areas.Gross margins on home loan sales increased to 3.07% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to 3.05% in the previous quarter and decreased from 3.10% in the same quarter one year ago. Gross margins are defined as the margin on loans sold (cash sales) without the impact of deferred costs.

(3) Includes $51,000, $50.3 million, and $78.8 million of brokered deposits at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2022, respectively.
(4) Includes $295.7 million, $266.1 million, and $180.3 million of brokered deposits at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2022, respectively.At June 30, 2023, CDs, which include retail and nonretail CDs, totaled $918.8 million, compared to $774.4 million at March 31, 2023 and $432.6 million at June 30, 2022, with nonretail CDs representing 33.7%, 37.5% and 48.0% of total CDs at such dates, respectively. At June 30, 2023, nonretail CDs, which include brokered CDs, online CDs, and public funds CDs, increased $19.6 million to $310.0 million, compared to $290.4 million at March 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase of $29.6 million in brokered CDs. Nonretail CDs totaled $310.0 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $207.8 million at June 30, 2022.
At June 30, 2023, the Bank had uninsured deposits of $587.6 million, compared to $633.4 million at March 31, 2023, and $642.2 million at June 30, 2022.
At June 30, 2023, borrowings comprised of overnight borrowings of $106.0 million, advances from the Federal Reserve Bank’s Term Funding Program of $90.0 million and FHLB fixed-rate advances of $3.9 million, increased $192.4 million to $199.9 million from $7.5 million at March 31, 2023, and increased $121.9 million from $78.0 million at June 30, 2022. The increased borrowings primarily were used to fund loan growth and to provide excess liquidity in accordance with management’s strategic objectives.
Total stockholders’ equity increased $8.1 million, to $249.9 million at June 30, 2023, from $241.8 million at March 31, 2023, and increased $27.3 million, from $222.6 million at June 30, 2022. The increase in stockholders’ equity during the current quarter reflects net income of $9.1 million, partially offset by dividends paid of $1.9 million. In addition, stockholders’ equity was positively impacted by unrealized gains on fair value and cash flow hedges of $3.2 million, net of tax, partially offset by unrealized net losses in securities available-for-sale of $2.9 million, net of tax, reflecting changes in market interest rates during the quarter, resulting in a $279,000 net decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Book value per common share was $32.71 at June 30, 2023, compared to $31.69 at March 31, 2023, and $29.27 at June 30, 2022.

The Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.3%, a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 8.8%, and a CET1 ratio of 10.0% at June 30, 2023.
Credit Quality
The allowance for credit losses on loans (“ACLL”) increased to $30.4 million, or 1.28% of gross loans receivable (excluding loans HFS) at June 30, 2023, compared to $29.9 million, or 1.29% of gross loans receivable, (excluding loans HFS) at March 31, 2023, and $25.0 million, or 1.27% of gross loans receivable (excluding loans HFS) at June 30, 2022. The quarter over linked quarter increase of $413,000 in the ACLL was primarily due to an increase in loans. The year over year increase of $5.4 million in the ACLL was primarily due to organic loan growth and the addition of loans acquired in the Branch Acquisition. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments decreased $347,000 to $1.9 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $2.3 million at March 31, 2023, and decreased $1.4 million from $3.4 million at June 30, 2022. The decrease was attributable to a decline in unfunded construction loan commitments over the periods.
Nonperforming loans increased $566,000 to $9.3 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $8.7 million at March 31, 2023 and increased $2.6 million from $6.7 million at June 30, 2022. The quarter over linked quarter increase was primarily due to increases in nonperforming commercial real estate loans of $1.1 million and indirect home improvement loans of $559,000, partially offset by decreases in commercial business loans of $680,000 and one-to-four-family loans of $438,000. The year over year increase in nonperforming loans was primarily due to increases in indirect home improvement loans of $1.3 million, commercial real estate loans of $1.1 million, commercial business loans of $586,000, and marine loans of $380,000, partially offset by decreases in one-to-four-family loans of $590,000 and home equity loans of $101,000.
Loans classified as substandard decreased $3.2 million to $16.4 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $19.6 million at March 31, 2023, and increased $5.8 million from $10.6 million at June 30, 2022. The quarter over linked quarter decrease in substandard loans was primarily attributable to decreases of $2.9 million in commercial real estate loans, $496,000 in commercial business loans, and $447,000 in one-to-four-family loans, partially offset by an increase of $559,000 in indirect home improvement loans. The year over year increase in substandard loans was primarily due to increases of $1.9 million in commercial real estate loans, $1.3 million in one-to-four-family loans, $1.3 million in indirect home improvement loans, $949,000 in commercial and industrial loans, and $380,000 in marine loans, partially offset by a decrease of $101,000 in home equity loans. There was one other real estate owned property (“OREO”) in the amount of $570,000 (a closed branch in Centralia, WA) at both June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, compared to one OREO in the amount of $145,000 at June 30, 2022.
Operating Results
Net interest income increased $6.8 million to $31.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from $24.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in loans and variable rate interest-earning assets repricing higher following recent increases in market interest rates. Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2023, increased $13.9 million compared to the same period last year, primarily due to an increase of $12.9 million in interest income on loans receivable, including fees, impacted primarily by loan growth and rising interest rates. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, interest expense increased $7.1 million, primarily as a result of higher market interest rates, higher utilization of borrowings and a shift in deposit mix from transactional accounts to higher cost CDs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net interest income increased $14.8 million to $62.2 million, from $47.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 for the same reason as for the three-month comparison described above, with an increase in interest income of $27.9 million and a decrease in interest expense of $13.1 million.
NIM (annualized) increased 27 basis points to 4.66% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from 4.39% for the same period in the prior year, and increased 36 basis points to 4.68% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from 4.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in NIM for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022, reflects new loan originations at higher market interest rates and variable rate interest-earning assets repricing higher following recent increases in market interest rates. The benefit from higher rates and interest earning assets were partially offset by rising deposit and borrowing costs. Increases in average balances of higher costing CDs and borrowings placed additional pressure on the NIM.
The average total cost of funds, including noninterest-bearing checking, increased 105 basis points to 1.48% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from 0.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was predominantly due to the rise in cost for market rate for deposits. The average cost of funds increased 99 basis points to 1.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from 0.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, also reflecting increases in market interest rates over last year. Management remains focused on matching deposit/liability duration with the duration of loans/assets where appropriate.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the provision for credit losses on loans was $1.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively, compared to $1.6 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The provision for credit losses on loans reflects an increase in total loans receivable and net charge-offs in indirect home improvement and marine loans.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, net charge-offs totaled $651,000, compared to $16,000 for the same period last year, primarily due to increased net charge-offs of $476,000 in indirect home improvement loans and $152,000 in marine loans. Net charge-offs totaled $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $280,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily due to net charge-off increases of $585,000 in indirect home improvement loans and $199,000 in marine loans. Net charge-offs have been steadily increasing over the last several years primarily attributable to volatile economic conditions.
Noninterest income increased $478,000, to $4.8 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase reflects a $584,000 increase in service charges and fee income, primarily as a result of less amortization of mortgage servicing rights reflecting increased market interest rates and increased servicing fees from non-portfolio serviced loans, partially offset by a $119,000 decrease in the gain on sale of loans. Noninterest income decreased $179,000, to $10.1 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from $10.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily the result of a $2.5 million decrease in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by a $1.7 million increase in service charges and fee income and $630,000 increase in other noninterest income.
Noninterest expense increased $5.3 million to $24.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from $18.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily a result of a $1.8 million increase in salaries and benefits largely due to the Branch Acquisition and growth in FTEs. Other increases included $1.3 million in operations expense, $851,000 in amortization of CDI, $406,000 in FDIC insurance and $304,000 in occupancy expense. Noninterest expense increased $9.7 million to $47.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from $38.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily for the same reasons stated above. Increases during the six month period ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period last year included $3.7 million in salaries and benefits, $1.6 million in acquisition costs, $1.5 million in operations, $1.1 million in amortization of CDI, $829,000 in FDIC insurance, $601,000 in occupancy and $436,000 in data processing.

(1) Includes loans HFS.Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
In addition to financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States (“GAAP”), this earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures: net income adjusted for acquisition costs, and acquisition-related CDI amortization, net of tax, tangible book value per share, and tangible common equity ratio. Management believes that adjusting net income for acquisition costs and acquisition-related CDI amortization, net of tax, provides useful and comparative information to assess trends reflected in the current quarter’s results and facilitates the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. The after-tax impact of acquisition-related costs to net income which we have recorded in connection with the Branch Acquisition provides meaningful supplemental information that management believes is useful to readers.
Further, management believes that providing the Company’s tangible book value per share and tangible common equity ratio is consistent with the capital treatment utilized by the investment community, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios and facilitates comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's capital over time and in comparison to its competitors. Where applicable, the Company has also presented comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures.
These non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for total stockholders' equity or operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
