Timberland Bancorp Announces Fiscal Fourth Quarter and Year End Results



HOQUIAM, WA   November 6, 2009 -- Timberland Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSBK)
("Timberland" or "the Company") today reported fiscal fourth quarter net
income of $47,000, or $0.01 per diluted common share.  Income available to
common shareholders after adjusting for the preferred stock dividend and the

For fiscal 2009, the Company reported net income of $73,000.  Income available
to common shareholders after adjusting for the preferred stock dividend and

million provision to its allowance for loan losses during the current quarter.

compared to $7.70 million at June 30, 2009.  The balance was comprised of 26
individual properties representing 14 relationships.  During the quarter nine
OREO properties were sold.  These nine OREO properties represented $2.16
million of the OREO balance reported at June 30, 2009.  Six additional OREO
properties have earnest money agreements which, if closed, will result in a
$1.4 million reduction in the OREO balance.  The largest OREO property has a
balance of $2.31 million and consists of a 78 lot plat located in Richland,
Washington.  The Richland/Kennewick/Pasco market is currently one of
Washington State's better performing economic areas.  Timberland continues to
actively manage the disposition of OREO properties and has observed increased
buyer interest in OREO properties.


Balance Sheet Management

Total assets increased by 4% during the quarter to $702.5 million at September
30, 2009 from $675.5 million at June 30, 2009.  The $27.1 million increase in
total assets was primarily a result of a $25.7 million increase in cash
equivalents and a $1.4 million increase in net loans receivable.  The Company
continues to maintain a high level of liquidity, both on balance sheet and
through off-balance sheet access to funds.  Liquidity as measured by cash
equivalents and available for sale investments securities to liabilities
increased to 13.5% at September 30, 2009, from 9.9% one year ago.

Net loans receivable increased by $1.4 million during the quarter to $547.2
million at September 30, 2009.  The increase was primarily due to a $9.3
million increase in commercial real estate loans, which was partially offset
by a $2.3 million decrease in construction and land development loans. "We
continue to improve the mix of loans in our portfolio," said Dean Brydon,
Chief Financial Officer.  "We have reduced our exposure to construction and
land development loans by $47 million, year over year."  During the current
quarter the one-to-four family speculative construction portfolio decreased by
12% and the land development portfolio decreased by 7%.   During the full
fiscal year, the one-to-four family speculative construction portfolio
decreased by 45% and the land development portfolio decreased by 32%.
"Overall, we have reduced our total exposure to construction and land
development loans by 25% from one year ago," Brydon added.

Loan originations decreased during the current quarter as the demand to
refinance one-to-four family mortgage loans declined.  Loan originations
totaled $49.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 compared to
$94.8 million for the preceding quarter and $50.0 million for the quarter
ended one year ago. Timberland continues to sell fixed rate one-to-four family
mortgage loans into the secondary market for asset liability management
purposes and to generate non-interest income.  During the quarter ended
September 30, 2009, fixed-rate one-to-four family mortgage loan sales totaled
$21.7 million compared to $69.6 million for the preceding quarter and $9.4
million for the quarter ended one year ago.

Timberland's investment securities decreased by $2.2 million during the
quarter to $21.9 million at June 30, 2009 from $24.1 million at June 30, 2009,
primarily as a result of regular amortization and prepayments and an $857,000
credit related other-than-temporary-impairment ("OTTI") charge on private
label mortgage-backed securities that were acquired in the in-kind redemption
from the AMF family of mutual funds in June 2008.

Total deposits increased by 4% to $505.7 million at September 30, 2009, from
$487.4 million at June 30, 2009 primarily as a result of a $15.2 million
increase in N.O.W. checking account balances and a $2.3 million increase in
savings account balances.  Timberland had no true brokered funds in its
deposit base at September 30, 2009.  The $3.75 million noted as brokered
deposits consisted of reciprocal deposits in the Certificate of Deposits
Account Registry Service ("CDARS") program.

Total shareholders' equity decreased $685,000 to $88.1 million at September
30, 2009, from $88.8 million at June 30, 2009.  The decrease was primarily due
to the payment of $630,000 in dividends to common and preferred shareholders
and a $171,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss.  These items
were partially offset by net income of $47,000.


Operating Results

Fiscal fourth quarter operating revenue (net interest income before provision
for loan losses, plus non-interest income excluding OTTI charges), increased
by 2% to $9.0 million compared to $8.9 million in the like quarter a year ago.
The increase was primarily a result of increased non-interest income, which
was partially offset by a decrease in net interest income.  The increased
non-interest income was primarily due to a $174,000 increase in gains on sale
of loans, a $169,000 valuation recovery on the Bank's mortgage servicing
rights ("MSRs") and $139,000 in income recorded for property easements sold.
In addition, the Bank recorded a $337,000 death claim benefit from its bank
owned life insurance ("BOLI") policies.

For fiscal 2009, operating revenues (excluding OTTI charges and loss on
redemption of mutual funds) increased by 6% to $35.9 million from $33.9
million in fiscal 2008.  The increase was primarily a result of increased
non-interest income, which was partially offset by a decrease in net interest
income.  The increased non-interest income was primarily due to a $1.8 million
increase in gain on sale of loans, an $819,000 increase in fee income on
deposit accounts and $139,000 in income for property easements sold.  In
addition BOLI income was increased due to a $337,000 death claim benefit and a
$134,000 gain from moving a number of the Bank's BOLI insurance policies to a
new insurance carrier.

Net interest income before the provision for loan losses decreased by 9% to
$6.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, from $6.8 million for
the like quarter one year ago with interest and dividend income decreasing by
11% and interest expense decreasing by 16%.  The decrease in net interest
income was primarily due to an increase in loans placed on non-accrual status
and margin compression due to the lower interest rate environment.  In spite
of the challenging interest rate environment, Timberland's net interest margin
remained strong at 3.93% for the current quarter; an increase of 7 basis
points from 3.86% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and a decrease of 43
basis points from 4.36% for the quarter a year ago.  The reversal of interest
income on loans placed on non-accrual status during the quarter ended
September 30, 2009 reduced the net interest margin by approximately 16 basis
points.

For fiscal 2009, net interest income before the provision for loan losses
decreased by 6% to $25.3 million from $26.9 million in the like period a year
ago.  Net interest margin for the year was 4.01%, down 40 basis points from
one year ago.

In the fourth fiscal quarter Timberland recorded a $3.2 million provision to
its allowance for loan losses, compared to $1.0 million in the preceding
quarter and $1.5 million in the like quarter in the prior fiscal year.  For
fiscal 2009, the provision for loan losses totaled $10.7 million, compared to
$3.9 million for fiscal 2008.  Net charge-offs for the quarter ended September
30, 2009 totaled $1.47 million compared to $609,000 for the quarter ended June
30, 2009 and $526,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  For fiscal
2009, net charge-offs were $4.4 million compared to $647,000 for fiscal 2008.

Timberland's total operating (non-interest) expenses decreased slightly to
$5.39 million for the fourth fiscal quarter from $5.40 million from the like
quarter one year ago and decreased by 15% from $6.37 million for the
immediately prior quarter.  Contributing to the decreased quarterly expense
was a capital gain on the sale of bank owned property, which reduced premises
and equipment expense by $235,000.  The Bank sold a portion of its Edgewood
branch office property in lieu of an eminent domain action to facilitate a
road widening project in Edgewood, Washington.

For fiscal 2009, total operating expenses increased by 12% to $22.7 million
from $20.4 million for fiscal 2008.  The increased expenses during the current
year were primarily due to increased FDIC insurance expenses (including an
FDIC special assessment of $300,000), increased OREO related expenses,
increased premises and equipment expenses, increase salaries and employee
benefits, and increased loan monitoring and collection related expenses.

In the fourth fiscal quarter Timberland's federal income tax benefit was
increased by approximately $180,000 due to adjustments made to the Company's
deferred tax asset valuation allowance for a previously non-deductible capital
loss carry forward related to the 2008 mutual fund redemption.
