FS Bancorp, Inc. Announces Strong 2014 Results Including $4.5 Million in Net Income or $1.52 Per
Diluted Share and Eighth Consecutive Quarterly Cash Dividend

MOUNTLAKE TERRACE, WA – January 29, 2015 - FS Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: FSBW) (“FS Bancorp” or the “Company”), the holding company for 1st Security Bank of Washington (the “Bank”) today reported 2014 net income of $4.5 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.9 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $1.5 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared to $537,000, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013.

“Annualized loan growth was 25.0% in the fourth quarter of 2014, and 37.3% for 2014.  Loan growth, coupled with increased gain on sale of loans, including the sale of held for sale consumer loans, resulted in a record quarter of earnings.  I am also pleased to announce that our Board of Directors has approved our eighth quarterly cash dividend,” stated Joe Adams, CEO of FS Bancorp.  The $0.06 dividend will be paid on February 26, 2015, to shareholders of record as of February 12, 2015.

  2014 Fourth Quarter and Year End Highlights

•    
Net income increased $387,000, or 33.8% to $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to $1.1 million for the previous quarter, and $537,000 for the comparable quarter one year ago;
•    
Total loans increased $32.3 million, or 8.9% to $394.2 million at December 31, 2014, compared to $361.9 million at September 30, 2014, and $287.2 million at December 31, 2013;
•    
Total assets increased $38.2 million, or 8.1% to $509.8 million at December 31, 2014, compared to $471.6 million at September 30, 2014, and $419.2 million at December 31, 2013;
•    
Relationship-based transactional deposits (noninterest, interest-bearing checking, and escrow accounts) increased 19.0% to $86.3 million at December 31, 2014, compared to $75.7 million at September 30, 2014, and $72.5 million at December 31, 2013;
•    
Total non-performing assets remained low at $433,000 as of December 31, 2014, compared to $409,000 at September 30, 2014, and $3.2 million at December 31, 2013;
 •    
The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets remained virtually unchanged at 0.1% at both December 31, 2014, and at September 30, 2014, and improved from 0.8% at December 31, 2013;
•    
Capital levels at the Bank reflect total risk-based capital of 14.7% and a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 11.2% as of December 31, 2014 compared to 16.6% and 12.6% as of December 31, 2013, respectively.

A portion of the California originated solar loans totaling $9.1 million were sold in the fourth quarter of 2014. The sale resulted in a gain of $377,000 or 4.1% of the amount sold.

One-to-four-family originations of loans held for sale, including loans brokered to other institutions, increased 20.0% to $97.4 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2014, compared to $81.2 million for the preceding quarter, and $46.9 million for the same quarter one year ago.  The increase in originations was attributed to new production staff hired in the third and fourth quarter of 2014 and a favorable reduction in market interest rates. The percentage of one-to-four-family mortgage loan originations for purchases was 68.1% of the total volume of originations versus 31.9% of volume for refinances during the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to 80.1% in purchase volume versus 19.9% in refinance volume for the third quarter of 2014.  During the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company sold $90.2 million of one-to-four-family mortgage loans compared to sales of $74.4 million for the preceding quarter, and sales of $45.9 million for the same quarter one year ago.

Total deposits increased $40.2 million, or 10.6% to $420.4 million at December 31, 2014, from $380.3 million at September 30, 2014, and increased $83.6 million from $336.9 million at December 31, 2013.  Relationship-based transactional deposits increased $10.6 million to $86.3 million as of December 31, 2014, from $75.7 million at September 30, 2014, and increased $13.8 million from $72.5 million at December 31, 2013.  Money market and savings accounts increased $30.8 million to $174.2 million at December 31, 2014, from $143.4 million at September 30, 2014, and increased from $134.5 million at December 31, 2013.  Time deposits decreased $1.2 million, or 0.7% to $160.0 million at December 31, 2014, from $161.2 million at September 30, 2014, and increased from $129.9 million at the same period last year.  Non-retail deposits which include $19.1 million of brokered certificates of deposit, $15.6 million of online certificates of deposit, and $1.7 million of public funds, decreased to $36.4 million as of December 31, 2014, compared to $40.6 million and $24.1 million at September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Borrowings decreased $5.5 million to $17.0 million as of December 31, 2014, from $22.6 million at September 30, 2014, as the Company repaid Federal Home Loan Bank advances upon maturity.  Additional borrowings were not required during the quarter as our asset growth was funded by the growth in deposits.

Total equity increased $1.8 million to $65.8 million at December 31, 2014, from $64.0 million at September 30, 2014.  The increase in equity from the third quarter of 2014 was predominantly a result of net income of $1.5 million, and an increase of $180,000 in other comprehensive income for the quarter ended December 31, 2014.

Book value per common share was $22.48 as of December 31, 2014, compared to $21.90 as of September 30, 2014, and $20.55 as of December 31, 2013.

The Bank is well capitalized with a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.7% and a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 11.2% at December 31, 2014, compared to 16.6% and 12.6% at December 31, 2013, respectively.  The Company has a total risk-based capital ratio of 17.1% and Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 13.2%, as of December 31, 2014, compared to 20.3% and 15.5% at December 31, 2013, respectively.

Operating Results

Net interest income increased $1.3 million, or 25.6%, to $6.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, from $4.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2014, net interest income increased $2.6 million, or 13.2%, to $22.1 million compared to $19.5 million for the same period in the prior year.

The net interest margin ("NIM") decreased 21 basis points to 5.12% for the year ended December 31, 2014, from 5.33% for the same period in the prior year. The reduced NIM reflects growth in lower yielding loan types as part of our loan diversification strategy.  The loan diversification strategy will continue to pressure the NIM as real estate and business loans have a lower yield than consumer loan products.  As a percentage, consumer loans to total loans were 34.7% as of December 31, 2014, compared to 42.7% as of December 31, 2013. The average cost of funds decreased 17 basis points to 0.63% for the three months ended December 31, 2014, from 0.80% for the three months ended December 31, 2013, and decreased seven basis points to 0.70% for the year ended December 31, 2014, from 0.77% for the same period in the prior year.  Deposit costs continue to decrease due to increases in noninterest bearing deposits and repricing certificates of deposit upon maturity at current market rates.

The provision for loan losses was $450,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and for the three months ended December 31, 2013.  The provision for loan losses decreased to $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to the decrease in non-performing assets.  Non-performing loans were $433,000, or 0.1% of total gross loans at December 31, 2014, compared to $1.1 million or 0.4% of total gross loans at December 31, 2013.  During the three months ended December 31, 2014, net charge-offs totaled $172,000 compared to $669,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2013.  During the year ended December 31, 2014, net charge-offs totaled $801,000 compared to $1.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.

Noninterest income increased $1.6 million, or 101.8%, to $3.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, from $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013.  The increase during the period was primarily due to a $1.4 million increase in gain on sale of loans.  Noninterest income increased $1.1 million, or 12.5%, to $10.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, from $8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013.  The increase was due to a $1.2 million increase in gain on sale of loans, a $271,000 increase in other noninterest income primarily due to a $203,000 increase in brokered loan fees, partially offset by a decrease of $305,000 in gain on sale of investments, and a $45,000 decrease in service charges and fee income.

Noninterest expense increased $1.7 million, or 31.7%, to $6.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, from $5.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013.  Changes in noninterest expense included a $1.4 million, or 53.7% increase in salaries and benefits, including commissions and incentives for production staff, as well as compensation associated with the equity incentive plan, a $318,000, or 42.0% increase in operations costs, and a $109,000, or 37.8% increase in data processing associated with the continued investment in increasing the lending and deposit franchise.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $171,000, or 100.0% of OREO fair value impairments as there was no OREO at both December 31, 2014, and September 30, 2014.  Noninterest expense increased $3.5 million, or 17.4%, to $23.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, from $20.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily as a result of a $3.2 million, or 29.2% increase in salaries and benefits due to hiring and increased commissions and incentive compensation associated with the

Company’s loan growth and the implementation of the equity incentive plan.  Increases in operation costs and occupancy costs of $453,000 and $210,000, respectively, were mostly offset by a $476,000 decrease in OREO fair value impairments, and a $123,000 decrease in OREO expenses.
