CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements often include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “targets,” “potentially,” “probably,” “projects,” “outlook” or similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such

Table of Contents

as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would” and “could.” The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Moreover, you should treat these statements as speaking only as of the date they are made and based only on information then actually known to the Company. The Company does not undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements. These risks could cause our actual results for future periods to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements by, or on behalf of, us, and could negatively affect the Company’s operating results and stock price performance.

The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting us, our customers, counterparties, employees, and third-party service providers, and the ultimate extent of the impacts on our business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity, and prospects is uncertain. Deterioration in general business and economic conditions, including increases in unemployment rates, or turbulence in domestic or global financial markets could adversely affect our revenues and the values of our assets and liabilities, reduce the availability of funding, lead to a tightening of credit, and increase stock price volatility. In addition, changes to statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies or practices as a result of, or in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways. Other factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to:

• the credit risks of lending activities, including changes in the level and trend of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in our ACL on loans and provision for credit losses on loans that may be effected by deterioration in the housing and CRE markets, which may lead to increased losses and nonperforming assets in our loan portfolio, and may result in our ACL on loans no longer being adequate to cover actual losses, and require us to increase our ACL on loans;

• changes in general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas;

• changes in the levels of general interest rates, and the relative differences between short-term and long-term interest rates, deposit interest rates, our net interest margin and funding sources;

• risks related to acquiring assets in or entering markets in which we have not previously operated and may not be familiar;

• fluctuations in the demand for loans, the number of unsold homes and other properties and fluctuations in real estate values in our market areas;

• results of examinations of us by the bank regulators, including the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, initiate an enforcement action against the Company or our bank subsidiary which could require us to increase our ACL on loans, write-down assets, change our regulatory capital position, affect our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, or impose additional requirements on us, any of which could affect our ability to continue our growth through mergers, acquisitions or similar transactions and adversely affect our liquidity and earnings;

• legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business;

• implementing regulations, changes in regulatory policies and principles, or the interpretation of regulatory capital or other rules;

• our ability to control operating costs and expenses;

• 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;

• difficulties in reducing risk associated with the loans on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition;

• staffing fluctuations in response to product demand or the implementation of corporate strategies that affect our workforce and potential associated charges;

• disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events, failures or interruptions in, or attacks on, our information technology systems or on the third-party vendors who perform several of our critical processing functions;

• our ability to retain key members of our senior management team;

• costs and effects of litigation, including settlements and judgments;

• our ability to implement our growth strategies;

• our ability to successfully integrate any assets, liabilities, customers, systems, and management personnel we may acquire into our operations and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames or at all, and any goodwill charges related thereto and costs or difficulties relating to integration matters, including but not limited to customer and employee retention, which might be greater than expected;

• increased competitive pressures among financial service companies;

• changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;

• the availability of resources to address changes in laws, rules, or regulations or to respond to regulatory actions;

• adverse changes in the securities markets;

• inability of key third-party providers to perform their obligations to us;

• changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the financial institution regulatory agencies or the FASB, including additional guidance and interpretation on accounting issues and details of the implementation of new accounting methods and as a result of the CARES Act and the CA Act; and

• other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services, including as a result of the CARES Act, CA Act and recent COVID-19 pandemic vaccination efforts, and the other risks detailed from time to time in our filings with the SEC including our 2020 Annual Form 10-K.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(1) Description of Business, Basis of Presentation, Significant Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

(a) Description of Business

The Company is primarily engaged in the business of planning, directing and coordinating the business activities of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Heritage Bank. The Bank is headquartered in Olympia, Washington and conducts business from its 53 branch offices as of June 30, 2021 located throughout Washington State and the greater Portland, Oregon area. The Bank’s business consists primarily of commercial lending and deposit relationships with small and medium-sized businesses and their owners in its market areas and attracting deposits from the general public. The Bank also makes real estate construction and land development loans, consumer loans and originates first mortgage loans on residential properties primarily located in its market areas. The Bank's deposits are insured by the FDIC.

The Company announced a plan in July 2021 to consolidate four branches during October 2021 to create a more efficient branch footprint. This will reduce the branch count from 53 to 49 . The Company plans to integrate these locations into other branches within its network.

(b) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. It is recommended that these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes be read with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes included in the 2020 Annual Form 10-K. In management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

To prepare unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided. Management believes that the judgments, estimates, and assumptions used in the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are appropriate based on the facts and circumstances at the time. Actual results, however, could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to management's estimate of ACL on loans, management's estimate of ACL on unfunded commitments, management's evaluation of goodwill impairment and management's estimate of the fair value of financial instruments.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions among the Company and the Bank have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain prior year amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on the prior years' net income or stockholders’ equity.

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are disclosed in greater detail in the 2020 Annual Form 10-K. There have not been any material changes in the Company's significant accounting policies from those contained in the 2020 Annual Form 10-K during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

(d) Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

FASB ASU 2016-13 , Financial Instruments: Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , as amended by ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, ASU 2019-11, and ASU 2020-02, was originally issued in June 2016. This ASU replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology, which is commonly referred to as the "CECL" methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans receivable. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures such as loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments. In addition, CECL Adoption made changes to the accounting for credit losses on investment securities available for sale. This ASU requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. For public business entities, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted for fiscal years after December 15, 2018 and can be delayed under a provision of the CARES Act until the end of the official health emergency declaration. The Bank adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and unfunded commitments. At adoption, the Bank elected not to measure an ACL on accrued interest receivable on loans receivable or accrued interest receivable on

Table of Contents

investment securities available for sale as Bank policy is to reverse interest income for uncollectible accrued interest receivable balances in a timely manner.

The adoption of ASU 2016-13 included an increase to the ACL on loans of $ 3.4 million and an increase to the ACL on unfunded commitments of $ 3.7 million, resulting in a pretax cumulative-effect adjustment of $ 7.1 million. The impact of this adjustment to beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2020 was $ 5.6 million, net of tax.

FASB ASU 2020-04 , Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) , as amended by ASU 2021-01, was issued in March 2020 and provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The amendments are elective, apply to all entities, and provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The Bank’s swap-related transactions are the majority of the Company's LIBOR exposure. Effective January 25, 2021, the Company adhered to the Interbank Offered Rate Fallbacks Protocol as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. and recommended by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its business operations and the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

(2) Investment Securities

The Company’s investment policy is designed primarily to provide and maintain liquidity, generate a favorable return on assets without incurring undue interest rate and credit risk, and complement the Bank’s lending activities.

The Company evaluated investment securities available for sale as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and determined that any declines in fair value were attributable to changes in interest rates relative to where these investments fall within the yield curve and individual characteristics. Management monitors published credit ratings for adverse changes for all rated investment securities and none of these securities had a below investment grade credit rating as of both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. In addition, the Company does not intend to sell these securities nor does the Company consider it more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before the recovery of the amortized cost basis, which may be upon maturity. Therefore, no ACL on investment securities available for sale was recorded as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

No amounts of accrued interest receivable on investment securities available for sale were reversed against interest income on investment securities available for sale during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.

(3) Loans Receivable

(a) Loan Origination/Risk Management

The Bank originates loans in the ordinary course of business and has also acquired loans through mergers and acquisitions. Accrued interest receivable was excluded from disclosures presenting the Bank's amortized cost of loans receivable as it was deemed insignificant.

The Bank categorizes the individual loans in the total loan portfolio into four segments: commercial business; residential real estate; real estate construction and land development; and consumer. Within these segments are classes of loans for which management monitors and assesses credit risk in the loan portfolios. A detailed description of the portfolio segments and classes is contained in the 2020 Annual Form 10-K.

The amortized cost of loans receivable, net of ACL on loans at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of the following portfolio segments and classes:

Unamortized net discount on acquired loans	$	( 5,006 )	$	( 6,575 )
Unamortized net deferred fee	$	( 17,994 )	$	( 15,458 )

(b) Concentrations of Credit

Most of the Bank’s lending activity occurs within its primary market areas which are concentrated along the I-5 corridor from Whatcom County to Clark County in Washington State and Multnomah County and Washington County in Oregon, as well as other contiguous markets and represents a geographic concentration. Additionally, our loan portfolio is concentrated in commercial-type loans, including commercial business loans and commercial and multifamily real estate construction and land development loans.

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to (i) the risk grade of the loans, (ii) the level of classified loans, (iii) net charge-offs, (iv) nonperforming loans, (v) past due status, and (vi) the general economic conditions of the United States of America, and specifically the states of Washington and Oregon.

The Bank utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 10. Risk grades are aggregated to create the risk categories of Pass for grades 1 to 6, Special Mention or "SM" for grade 7, Substandard or "SS" for grade 8, Doubtful for grade 9 and Loss for grade 10. Descriptions of the general characteristics of the risk grades, including qualitative information on how the risk grades relate to the risk of loss, are contained in the 2020 Annual Form 10-K. Numerical loan grades for loans are established at the origination of the loan. Changes to loan grades are considered at the time new information about the performance of a loan becomes available, including the receipt of updated financial information from the borrower, results of annual term loan reviews and scheduled loan reviews. For consumer loans, the Bank follows the FDIC’s Uniform Retail Credit Classification and Account Management Policy for subsequent classification in the event of payment delinquencies or default. Typically, an individual loan grade will not be changed from the prior period unless there is a specific indication of credit deterioration or improvement. Credit deterioration is evidenced by delinquency, direct communications with the borrower, or other borrower information that becomes known to management. Credit improvements are evidenced by known facts regarding the borrower or the collateral property.

Loan grades relate to the likelihood of losses in that the higher the grade, the greater the loss potential. Loans with a pass grade may have some estimated inherent losses, but to a lesser extent than the other loan grades. The SM loan grade is transitory in that the Bank is waiting on additional information to determine the likelihood and extent of the potential loss. The likelihood of loss for SM graded loans, however, is greater than Watch graded loans because there has been measurable credit deterioration. Loans with a SS grade are generally loans with higher risk of loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. For Doubtful and Loss graded loans, the Bank is almost certain of the losses and the outstanding principal balances are generally charged off to the realizable value.

Regulatory agencies provided guidance regarding credit risk ratings, delinquency reporting and nonaccrual status for loans adversely impacted by COVID-19. The Bank has and will continue to exercise judgment in determining the risk rating for impacted borrowers and will not automatically adversely classify credits that are affected by COVID-19. The Bank also will not designate loans with payment deferrals granted due to COVID-19 as past due because of the deferral. Due to the short-term nature of the forbearance and other relief programs the Bank is offering as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, management expects that borrowers granted relief under these programs will generally not be reported as nonaccrual during the deferral period.

There have been no significant changes to the collateral securing individually evaluated loans for credit losses and for which repayment was expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral during the six months ended June 30, 2021, except changes due to additions or deletions of loans into this classification.

(g) Troubled Debt Restructured Loans

A TDR is a restructuring in which the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to a borrower that it would not otherwise consider. The TDR modifications or concessions are made to increase the likelihood that these borrowers with financial difficulties will be able to satisfy their debt obligations as amended.

The concessions granted in the restructurings largely consisted of maturity extensions. The Bank typically grants shorter extension periods to continually monitor these TDR loans despite the fact that the extended date might not be the date the Bank expects the scheduled cash flow from these borrowers. The Bank does not consider these modifications a subsequent default of a TDR as new loan terms, specifically new maturity dates, were granted.

The CARES Act, CA Act and regulatory agencies provided guidance around the modification of loans as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and outlined, among other criteria, that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis to borrowers who were current as defined by the guidance are not TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g. six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers were considered current if they were less than 30 days past due on the contractual payments as of December 31, 2019 under the CARES Act and at the time a modification program is implemented under related regulatory guidance. The CA Act extended relief offered under the CARES Act through January 1, 2022 or 60 days after the end of the national emergency declared by the President, whichever is earlier. The Bank elected to apply the temporary relief under the applicable guidance to certain eligible short-term modifications and did not classify the modifications as TDRs for accounting or disclosure purposes. However, COVID

(1) Number of contracts and amortized cost represent loans which have balances as of period end, net of subsequent payments after modifications. Certain modified loans may have been paid-down or charged-off during the three or six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.

(2) As the Bank did not forgive any principal or interest balance as part of the loan modifications, the Bank’s amortized cost in each loan at the date of modification (pre-modification) did not change as a result of the modification (post-modification).

The Bank had an ACL on loa ns of $ 1.7 million an d $ 1.5 million at June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively, related to these TDR loans which were restructured during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

The unfunded commitment to borrowers related to TDR loans was $ 4.9 million and $ 2.6 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 all of the TDR loans in the tables above defaulted because each was past its modified maturity date and the borrower had not subsequently repaid the credits. The Bank chose not to extend further the maturity date on these loans. The Bank had an ACL on lo ans of $ 7,000 and $ 494,000 at June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively, related to these TDR loans which defaulted during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

(h) Accrued interest receivable on loans receivable

Accrued interest receivable on loans receivable totaled $ 12.8 million and $ 15.8 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. It is excluded from the calculation of the ACL on loans as interest accrued, but not received, is reversed timely.

(i) Foreclose proceedings in process

At June 30, 2021, there was one consumer mortgage loan secured by a residential real estate property (included in loans receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position) of $ 79,000 for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process.

(4) Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

Effective January 1, 2020, the Bank adopted ASU 2016-13. Risk characteristics by segment considered in the CECL model are the same as those disclosed in the 2020 Annual Form 10-K.

The baseline loss rates used to calculate the ACL on loans at June 30, 2021 utilized the Bank's average quarterly historical loss information from December 31, 2012 through the balance sheet date. There were no changes to this assumption during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Bank believes the historic loss rates are viable inputs to the current CECL model as the Bank's lending practice and business has remained relatively stable throughout the periods. While the Bank's assets have grown, the credit culture has stayed relatively consistent.

Prepayments included in the CECL model at June 30, 2021 were based on the 48-month rolling historical averages for each segment, which management believes is an accurate representation of future prepayment activity. There were no changes to this assumption during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Table of Contents

The reasonable and supportable period used in the CECL model as of June 30, 2021 was five quarters. There were no changes to this assumption during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Management believes that forecasts beyond this five quarter time period tend to diverge in economic assumptions and may be less comparable to actual future events. As the length of the reasonable and supportable period increases, the degree of judgment involved in estimating the allowance will likely increase.

The Bank used a two-quarter reversion period in calculating the ACL on loans as of June 30, 2021 as it believes the historical loss information is relevant to the expected credit losses and recognizes the declining precision and increasing uncertainty of estimating credit losses in those periods beyond which it can make reasonable and supportable forecasts. There were no changes to this assumption during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 , the ACL on loans decreased $ 18.6 million, or 26.5 %, due primarily to a reversal of provision for credit losses on loans of $ 19.0 million fo llowing improvements in the economic forecast at June 30, 2021 as compared to the forecast at December 31, 2020 and secondarily due to a decrease in total loans receivable, excluding SBA PPP loans which are fully guaranteed by the SBA and not provisioned for in the ACL on loans.

A summary of the changes in the ACL on loans during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

(5) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

(a) Goodwill

The Company’s goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in the following mergers: Premier Commercial Bancorp and Puget Sound Bancorp in 2018; Washington Banking Company in 2014; Valley Community Bancshares in 2013; Western Washington Bancorp in 2006 and North Pacific Bank in 1998. The Company’s goodwill is assigned to the Bank and is evaluated for impairment at the Bank level (reporting unit).

There were no additions to goodwill during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Management analyzes its goodwill on an annual basis on December 31 and between annual tests in certain circumstances such as material adverse changes in legal, business, regulatory and economic factors. An impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. The Company performed an annual impairment assessment as of December 31, 2020 and concluded that there was no impairment.

(b) Other Intangible Assets

Other intangible assets represent core deposit intangibles acquired in business combinations. The useful life of the core deposit intangibles was estimated to be ten years for the acquisitions of Premier Commercial Bancorp, Puget Sound Bancorp, Washington Banking Company, and Valley Community Bancshares.

The following table presents the change in other intangible assets for the periods indicated:

(6) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company utilizes interest rate swap derivative contracts to facilitate the needs of its commercial customers whereby it enters into an interest rate swap with a customer while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with another financial institution. The transaction allows the Company’s customer to effectively convert a variable rate loan to a fixed rate and the Company recognizes immediate income based upon the difference in the bid/ask spread of the underlying transactions with its customers and the third-party. These interest rate swaps are not designated as hedging instruments.

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk as part of the transaction. However, the Company acts as an intermediary for its customer therefore changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts for the most part offset each other and do not significantly impact the Company’s results of operations.

Fee income related to interest rate swap derivative contract transactions is recorded in Interest rate swap fees on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The fair value of derivative positions outstanding is included in Prepaid expenses and other

Table of Contents

assets and Accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The gains and losses due to changes in fair value and all cash flows are included in Other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income, but typically net to zero based on the identical back-to-back interest rate swaps unless a credit valuation adjustment is recorded to appropriately reflect nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement. Various factors impact changes in the credit valuation adjustments over time, including changes in the risk ratings of the parties to the contracts, as well as changes in market rates and volatilities, which affect the total expected exposure of the derivative instruments.

The following table presents the notional amounts and estimated fair values of interest rate derivative contracts outstanding at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:


	June 30, 2021				December 31, 2020
	Notional Amounts		Estimated Fair Value		Notional Amounts		Estimated Fair Value
	(In thousands)
Non-hedging interest rate derivatives
Interest rate swap asset (1)	$	321,519	$	19,342	$	308,126	$	25,740
Interest rate swap liability (1)	321,519		( 19,510 )		308,126		( 26,162 )

(1) The estimated fair value of derivatives with customers was $ 15.4 million and $ 25.4 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The estimated fair value of derivatives with third parties was $( 15.6 ) million and $( 25.9 ) million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to these agreements. Credit risk with the customer is controlled through the credit approval, limits, and monitoring procedures and concentrated within our primary market areas. Credit risk for derivatives with third-parties is concentrated among four well-known broker dealers.

(b) Dividends

The timing and amount of cash dividends paid on the Company's common stock depends on the Company’s earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other relevant factors. Dividends on common stock from the Company depend substantially upon receipt of dividends from the Bank, which is the Company’s predominant source of income.

The FDIC and the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions, Division of Banks have the authority under their supervisory powers to prohibit the payment of dividends by the Bank to the Company. Additionally, current guidance from the Federal Reserve provides, among other things, that dividends per share on the Company’s common stock generally should not exceed earnings per share, measured over the previous four fiscal quarters. Current regulations allow the Company and the Bank to pay dividends on their common stock if the Company’s or the Bank’s regulatory capital would not be reduced below the statutory capital requirements set by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC.

The Company has had various stock repurchase programs since March 1999. On October 23, 2014, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 5 % of the Company's outstanding common shares, or 1,512,600 shares, under the eleventh stock repurchase plan. On March 12, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 5 % of the Company's outstanding common shares, or 1,799,054 shares, under the twelfth stock repurchase plan after all shares under the eleventh stock repurchase plan had been repurchased. The number, timing and price of shares repurchased under the twelfth stock repurchase plan will depend on business and market conditions and other factors, including opportunities to deploy the Company's capital.

The following table provides total repurchased shares and average share prices under the applicable plans for the periods indicated:

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 : Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, or interest in open-end mutual funds that allow the Company to sell its ownership interest back to the fund at net asset value on a daily basis. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets, liabilities, or funds.

Level 2 : Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or valuations using methodologies with observable inputs.

Level 3 : Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, such as option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques using unobservable inputs, and not based on market exchange, dealer, or broker traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.

(a) Recurring and Nonrecurring Basis

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to measure the fair value of certain assets on a recurring and nonrecurring basis:

Investment Securities Available for Sale :

The fair values of all investment securities are based upon the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the security. If available, fair values of investment securities are determined by quoted market prices (Level 1). For investment securities where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices on similar securities (Level 2). For investment securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated by using observable and unobservable inputs such as discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Investment security valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services.

Collateral-Dependent Loans :

Collateral-dependent loans are identified for the calculation of the ACL on loans. The fair value used to measure credit loss for this type of loan is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals which are generally obtained at least every 18 months or earlier if there are changes to risk characteristics of the underlying loan. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. The Bank also incorporates an estimate of cost to sell the collateral when the sale is probable. Such adjustments may be significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value based on the borrower’s financial statements or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation and management’s expertise and knowledge of the customer and customer’s business (Level 3). Individually evaluated loans are analyzed for credit loss on a quarterly basis and the ACL on loans is adjusted as required based on the results.

Appraisals on collateral-dependent loans are performed by certified general appraisers for commercial properties or certified residential appraisers for residential properties whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Bank. Once received, the Bank reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics.

Derivative Financial Instruments:

The Bank obtains broker or dealer quotes to value its interest rate derivative contracts, which use valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2), and incorporates credit valuation adjustments to reflect nonperformance risk in the measurement of fair value (Level 3). Although the Bank has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its interest rate swap derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as borrower risk ratings, to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Bank assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustment on the overall valuation of its interest rate swap derivatives and determined that the credit valuation adjustment was not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate swap derivatives. As a result, the Bank has classified its interest rate swap derivative valuations in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Branches held for sale :

Branches held for sale are recorded at fair value less costs to sell when transferred from Premises and equipment, net to Prepaid expenses and other assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition with any valuation adjustment recorded within Other noninterest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The fair value of branches held for sale is determined based on a real estate appraisal or broker price opinion. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal and broker price opinion process by independent appraisers and commercial real estate brokers, respectively, to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in Level 3

(b) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Broadly traded markets do not exist for most of the Company’s financial instruments; therefore, the fair value calculations attempt to incorporate the effect of current market conditions at a specific time. These determinations are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and do not include tax ramifications; therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision, substantiated by comparison to independent markets and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the instruments. There may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results. For all of these reasons, the aggregation of the fair value calculations presented herein do not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of the Company.

The following tables present the carrying value amount of the Company’s financial instruments and their corresponding estimated fair values at the dates indicated:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The information contained in this section should be read with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes included herein, the Forward Looking Statements included herein and the December 31, 2020 audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes included in our 2020 Annual Form 10-K.

Overview

Heritage Financial Corporation is a bank holding company which primarily engages in the business activities of our wholly-owned financial institution subsidiary, Heritage Bank. We provide financial services to our local communities with an ongoing strategic focus on our commercial banking relationships, market expansion and asset quality. The Company’s business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in the Bank. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report relates primarily to the Bank’s operations.

Our business consists primarily of commercial lending and deposit relationships with small to medium sized businesses and their owners in our market areas and attracting deposits from the general public. We also make real estate construction and land development loans and consumer loans. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we ceased indirect auto loan originations, included in our consumer portfolio. We additionally originate for sale or for investment purposes residential real estate loans on single family properties located primarily in our markets.

Our core profitability depends primarily on our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on interest earning assets, comprised primarily of loans and investment securities, and interest expense, which is the amount we pay on our interest bearing liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits. Management manages the repricing characteristics of the Company's interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities to protect net interest income from changes in market interest rates and changes in the shape of the yield curve. Like most financial institutions, our net interest income is significantly affected by general and local economic conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates, and by governmental policies and actions of regulatory agencies. Net interest income is additionally affected by changes on the volume and mix of interest earning assets, interest earned on these assets, the volume and mix of interest bearing liabilities and interest paid on these liabilities.

Our net income is affected by many factors, including the provision for credit losses on loans. The provision for credit losses on loans is dependent on changes in the loan portfolio and management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan portfolio as well as prevailing economic and market conditions. Management believes that the ACL on loans reflects the amount that is appropriate to provide for current expected credit losses in our loan portfolio based on our consistent methodology.

Net income is also affected by noninterest income and noninterest expense. Noninterest income primarily consists of service charges and other fees and other income. Noninterest expense consists primarily of compensation and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing and professional services. Compensation and employee benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for retirement and other employee benefits. Occupancy and equipment expenses are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, and consists primarily of lease expenses, depreciation charges, maintenance and utilities. Data processing consists primarily of processing and network services related to the Bank’s core operating system, including the account processing system, electronic payments processing of products and services, and internet and mobile banking channels as well as software-as-a-service providers. Professional services consists primarily of third party service providers, such as auditors, consultants and legal fees.

Results of operations may also be significantly affected by general and local economic and competitive conditions, governmental policies and actions of regulatory authorities, especially changes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the

Table of Contents

governmental actions taken to address it. Net income is also impacted by growth of operations through organic growth or acquisitions.

COVID-19 Pandemic Response

The Company maintains its commitment to supporting its community and customers during the COVID-19 pandemic and remains focused on keeping its employees safe and the Bank running effectively to serve its customers. The governors of Washington and Oregon, where our branches are located, recently announced the easing of restrictions which were implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Accordingly, all Bank branches were reopened with normal hours, remote employees commenced a phased-in return to the office over the summer and substantially all employees are expected to return to their go-forward working environments by Labor Day. The Bank will continue to monitor branch access and occupancy levels in relation to cases and close contact scenarios and follow governmental restrictions and public health authority guidelines.

Earnings Summary

Comparison of quarter ended June 30, 2021 to the comparable quarter in the prior year

Net income was $32.7 million , or $0.90 per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $6.1 million, or $(0.17) per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Net income increased $38.8 million, or 632.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due primarily to a reversal of provision for credit losses of $14.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a provision for credit losses of $28.6 million for the same period in 2020.

The efficiency ratio consists of noninterest expense divided by the sum of net interest income plus noninterest income. The Company’s efficiency ratio was 58.18% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 63.31% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The change in the efficiency ratio was attributable primarily to the increase in net interest income.

Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2021 to the comparable period in the prior year.

Net income was $58.0 million , or $1.60 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared t o $6.1 million, or $0.17 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net income increase d $52.0 million , or 859.1% , for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due primarily to a reversal o f provision for credit losses of $21.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a provision for credit losses of $36.5 million for the same period in 2020.

The Company’s efficiency ratio was 59.84% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 63.75% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change in the efficiency ratio was attributable primarily to the increase in net interest income.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Overview

One of the Company's key sources of earnings is net interest income. There are several factors that affect net interest income including, but not limited to, the volume, pricing, mix and maturity of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities; the volume of noninterest earning assets, noninterest bearing demand deposits, other noninterest bearing liabilities and stockholders' eq uity; market interest rate fluctuations; and asset quality.

Comparison of quarter ended June 30, 2021 to the comparable quarter in the prior year

Net interest income increased $4.0 million, or 7.9%, to $54.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $50.3 million for the same period in 2020 due primarily to increases in loan yield and secondarily due to the Bank decreasing deposit rates following decreases in short-term market interest rates since the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Loan yield benefited from the impact of SBA PPP loan forgiveness, which prompted the recognition of the remaining net deferred fees outstanding for the underlying forgiven SBA PPP loans, and recoveries of $2.0 million of interest and fees on loans classified as nonaccrual, including $1.5 million related to the full payoff of an agricultural business relationship of $10.7 million which was initially classified as nonaccrual during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

(3) Yields on tax-exempt securities and loans have not been stated on a tax-equivalent basis.

Net interest income as a percentage of average interest earning assets, or net interest margin, decreased due primarily to the change in the mix of total interest earning assets, including a significant increase in average interest earning deposits to 15.2% of total earning assets at June 30, 2021 compared to 3.3% at June 30, 2020, and decreases in yields on interest earning assets over the past year following decreases in short-term market rates during the quarter ended March 31, 2020. The decrease in net interest margin was offset partially by a decrease in the cost of total interest bearing deposits reflecting the decreases in short-term market rates.

The following table presents the loan yield and the impacts of SBA PPP loans and the incremental accretion on purchased loans on this financial measure for the periods presented below:

Loan yield, excluding SBA PPP loans and incremental accretion on purchased loans (non-GAAP)	4.45	%	4.56	%

(1) See Reconciliations of "Non-GAAP Financial Measures section."

(2) Represents the amount of interest income recorded on purchased loans in excess of the contractual stated interest rate in the individual loan notes due to incremental accretion of purchased discount or premium. Purchased discount or premium is the difference between the contractual loan balance and the fair value of acquired loans at the acquisition date, or as modified by CECL Adoption. The purchased discount is accreted into income over the remaining life of the loan. The impact of incremental accretion on loan yield will change during any period based on the volume of prepayments, but it is expected to decrease over time as the balance of the purchased loans decreases.

The impact to loan yield from recoveries of interest and fees on loans classified as nonaccrual was 18 basis points and one basis point, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2021 to the comparable period in the prior year

Net interest income increase d $7.6 million, or 7.7%, to $106.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $98.9 million for the same period in 2020 due primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans receivable, net, predominately from SBA PPP loans and secondarily due to the Bank decreasing deposit rates following decreases in short-term market interest rates. The increase in net interest income was offset partially by decreases in the yield for all interest earning assets, reflecting the decreases in market interest rates.

Provision for Credit Losses Overview

The aggregate of the provision for credit losses on loans and the provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments is presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the provision for credit losses. The ACL on unfunded commitments is included on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition within Accrued expenses and other liabilities. The methodology for determining the ACL on loans is disclosed in the Analysis of Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans section below. The methodology for determining the ACL on unfunded commitments uses loss rates calculated in the ACL on loans by segment and an estimate of the likelihood of utilization of the unfunded commitment, both applied to the outstanding balance of unfunded commitments by segment.

Comparison of quarter ended June 30, 2021 to the comparable quarter in the prior year

Total noninterest expense	$	73,638	$	74,333	$	(695)	(0.9)	%

Noninterest expense decrease d due primari ly to lower professional services expense discussed above and secondarily due to the decrease in other expense driven primarily by a reduction of discretionary expenses, including employee business travel as a result of the Company's suspension of non-essential travel due to COVID-19. The decrease in noninterest expense was offset partially by a n increase in data processing expense as the Bank continues to invest in technology and an increase in the Federal deposit insurance premium expense as the Bank used its remaining FDIC's small bank credit assessments during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The increase in total assets was offset partially by a decrease in loan receivable, net, which is discussed in more detail in the "Lending Activities Overview" section below, and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets due primarily to the return of the New Market Tax Credit equity method investment.

Total liabilities and stockholder's equity increased due primarily to an increase in deposits, which is discussed in more detail in the "Deposit Activities Overview" section below and net income.

Lending Activities Overview

Changes by loan type

The Bank is a full-service commercial bank which originates a wide variety of loans with a focus on commercial business loans. Loans receivable decreased $261.1 million compared to December 31, 2020 due primarily to a decrease in SBA PPP loans as a result of forgiveness payments received from the SBA in excess of origin ations, a decrease in demand for commercial and industrial loans and a decrease in consumer loans primarily from continued runoff of the indirect auto loan portfolio following the cessation of this business line during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

The following table provides a comparison of the changes in the Company's loan portfolio by type of loan from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021:

COVID Modifications

The Company continues to accommodate a variety of loan modifications under the CARES Act, CA Act and related regulatory guidance as a direct result of COVID-19 pandemic issues impacting these borrowers. At June 30, 2021, approximately 57 loans totaling $40.9 million were in payment deferral modification status compared to 177 loans totaling $92.5 million at December 31, 2020. The top three customer relationships in payment deferral modification status at June 30, 2021 represented $31.7 million, or 77.5% of all loans in payment deferral modification status. These three customer relationships are related to the travel and accommodations industry and will be in payment deferral modification status until December 31, 2021.

SBA Paycheck Protection Program

The Company has supported its community and customers during the COVID-19 pandemic through its participation in the SBA's PPP. The Company has identified its SBA PPP loans separately in two tranches based on the date of origination with the first tranche comprised of the SBA PPP loans originated in accordance with the CARES Act ("PPP1") and the second tranche comprised of SBA PPP loans originated under the SBA's PPP in accordance with the CA Act ("PPP2"). PPP1 and PPP2 ended on August 8, 2020 and May 31, 2021, respectively.

The Bank earns 1% interest on these loans as well as a fee from the SBA to cover processing costs, which is amortized over the life of the loan. The Bank began processing loan forgiveness applications and receiving SBA PPP forgiveness payments during the three months ended December 31, 2020.

The following are key statistics from inception of the SBA's PPP through June 30, 2021:

(1) Potential problem loans are risk rated SM or worse that are not classified as a performing TDR or nonaccrual loan and are not individually evaluated for credit loss, but which management is closely monitoring because the financial information of the borrower causes concern as to their ability to meet their loan repayment terms.

Nonaccrual Loans

N onaccrual loans decreased $22.8 million to 0.84% of loans receivable and 0.50% of total assets at June 30, 2021 from 1.30% of loans receivable and 0.88% of total assets at December 31, 2020. The following table reflects the changes in nonaccrual loans during the periods indicated:

The decrease in nonaccrual loans during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was due primarily to payoffs, including a payoff of an agricultural business relationship of $10.7 million which was initially classified as nonaccrual during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The Company also recovered $1.5 million of interest and fees on loans related to this payoff.

Analysis of Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

We adopted CECL on January 1, 2020. Under this methodology, certain nonaccrual loans and certain performing TDR loans are not considered to have similar risk characteristics as other loans; therefore, they are evaluated for credit loss on an individual basis. The allowance for individually evaluated loans is calculated using either the collateral value method, which considers the likely source of repayment as the value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell if applicable, or the net present value method, which considers the contractual principal and interest terms and estimated cash flows available from the borrower to satisfy the debt.

The remaining loans not individually evaluated are disaggregated based on similar risk characteristics into segments and collectively evaluated for ACL using baseline loss rates that are calculated using the Bank's average quarterly historical loss information for those segments. The baseline loss rates are applied to each loan's estimated cash flows over the life of the loan under the remaining life method, including prepayment estimates, to determine the baseline loss estimate for each loan. The CECL methodology also includes consideration of the forecasted direction of the economic and business environment and its likely impact to the estimated allowance as compared to the historical losses over the reasonable and supportable time frame. The impact of those macroeconomic factors to each segment, positive or negative, using the reasonable and supportable period,

are added to the calculated baseline loss rate and are used to establish a macroeconomic allowance. After the reasonable and supportable period, the estimated credit losses revert back to historical baseline loss levels under a reversion period on a straight-lined, input reversion basis. Management can also consider other qualitative factors to adjust the ACL on loans if internal or external conditions suggest changes to the modeled ACL on loans are appropriate.

The following table provides information regarding changes in the ACL on loans at and for the periods indicated:

The ACL on loans decreased $18.6 million, or 26.5%, to $51.6 million, or 1.23% of loans receivable, at June 30, 2021 from $70.2 million, or 1.57% of loans receivable, at December 31, 2020. The decrease in the ACL on loans was due primarily to a reversal of prov ision for credit losses on loans of $19.0 million recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021 following improvements in the economic forecast used in the CECL model at June 30, 2021 as compared to the forecast at December 31, 2020 . The ACL on loans does not include a reserve for SBA PPP loans as these loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA. The ACL on loans receivable, excluding SBA PPP loans was 1.41% and 1.87% at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. See "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures" for the calculation of the ACL on loans receivable, excluding SBA PPP.

Deposits and Other Borrowings Overview

Total deposits	$	6,061,706	100.0	%	$	5,597,990	100.0	%	$	463,716	8.3	%

The increase in deposits is primarily due to proceeds from SBA PPP loans originated during the six months ended June 30, 2021 which were deposited directly into the customers' deposit accounts.

The Bank also utilizes securities sold under agreement to repurchase, which are secured by available for sale investment securities, as a supplement to its funding sources. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, only three customers utilized this product with total balances of $46.4 million and $35.7 million, respectively.

In addition to deposits and securities sold under agreement to repurchase, borrowings may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in other sources of funds. Borrowings may also be used on a longer-term basis to support expanded lending activities and match the maturity of repricing intervals of assets.

The Company has junior subordinated debentures with a par value of $25.0 million which pay quarterly interest based on the three-month LIBOR plus 1.56% and mature in 2037. The balance of the junior subordinated debentures was $21.0 million at June 30, 2021, which reflects the fair value of the junior subordinated debentures established as part of the merger with Washington Banking Company on May 1, 2014, adjusted for the accretion of discount from purchase accounting fair value adjustment.

Additionally, the Bank maintained credit facilities with the FHLB for $1.01 billion and credit facilities with the Federal Reserve Bank for $49.5 million at June 30, 2021. There were no FHLB or Federal Reserve Bank advances outstanding under either facility at June 30, 2021 and these credit facilities were not utilized during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The average balance of FHLB advances was $2.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The credit facility with the Federal Reserve Bank was not utilized during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The Bank also maintains lines of credit with five correspondent banks to purchase federal funds totaling $215.0 million as of June 30, 2021. These lines of credit were not utilized during both the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The Bank was approved to utilize the PPPLF with the Federal Reserve Bank for $560.6 million, which is the principal balance of SBA PPP loans outstanding at June 30, 2021. We did not utilize the PPPLF during both the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. On June 25, 2021, the Federal Reserve announced it will extend the PPPLF for a final time by an additional month to July 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Cash Flows

Our primary sources of funds are customer and local government deposits, loan principal and interest payments, loan sales and payments of interest earned on and proceeds from sales, and maturities of investment securities. These funds, together with retained earnings, equity and other borrowed funds, are used to make loans, acquire investment securities and other assets, and fund continuing operations. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by the level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

Heritage Bank: The principal objective of the Bank’s liquidity management program is to maintain the ability to meet day-to-day cash flow requirements of its customers who either wish to withdraw funds or to draw upon credit facilities to meet their cash needs. The Bank monitors the sources and uses of funds on a daily basis to maintain an acceptable liquidity position. In addition to liquidity from core deposits and the repayment and maturities of loans and investment securities, the Bank can utilize established credit facilities and lines of credit totaling $1.84 billion as discussed in the Deposits and Other Borrowings Overview section above or may initiate the sale of investment securities.

Heritage Financial Corporation: The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are obtained from dividends declared and paid by the Bank. There are statutory and regulatory provisions that could limit the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company. However, management believes that such restrictions will not have an adverse impact on the ability of the Company to meets its ongoing cash obligations. At June 30, 2021, the Company (on an unconsolidated basis) had cash and cash equivalents of $9.0 million.

We are required to maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the availability of sufficient funds for loan originations and deposit withdrawals, satisfy other financial commitments and fund operations. We generally maintain sufficient cash and investments to meet short-term liquidity needs. At June 30, 2021, cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.26 billion, or 17.8% of total assets. Investment securities available for sale totaled $1.05 billion, of which $222.7 million were pledged to secure public deposits, borrowing arrangements or securities sold under agreement to repurchase. Management considers unpledged investment securities available for sale to be another source of liquidity. The fair value of investment securities available for sale that were unpledged totaled $826.8 million, or 11.6% of total assets, at June 30, 2021. The fair value of investment securities available for sale with maturities of one year or less totaled $34.0 million, or 0.5% of total assets, at June 30, 2021.

Consolidated Cash Flows: As disclosed in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, net cash provided by operating activities was $29.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and primarily consisted of net income of $58.0 million, offset partially by non-cash adjustments, including reversal of provision for credit losses of $21.2 million and depreciation, amortization, and accretion of $13.9 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash provided by investing activities was $32.5 million, which consisted primarily of net loan payments of $295.6 million (including SBA PPP loan principal reduction

Table of Contents

of $549.9 million compared to SBA PPP originations of $380.0 million) and net cash activity in investment securities available for sale of $260.7 million (including $388.6 million of purchases). Net cash provided by financing activities was $459.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and primarily consisted of a net increase in deposits of $463.7 million as discussed above.

Stockholders' Equity and Regulatory Capital Requirements Overview

The Company’s stockholders' equity to assets ratio was 12.0% and 12.4% at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The following table reflects the changes to stockholders' equity during the periods indicated:

No shares were repurchased under the Company's stock repurchase plans during the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased the remaining 639,922 shares available under the eleventh stock repurchase plan at a weighted average price per share of $23.95 and repurchased 155,778 shares under the twelfth stock repurchase plan at a weighted average share price of $20.34, totaling 795,700 shares repurchased under both plans at a weighted average share price of $23.25. In addition to the stock repurchases under a plan, the Company repurchased shares to pay withholding taxes on the vesting of restricted stock awards and units.

The Company has historically paid cash dividends to its common shareholders. Payments of future cash dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account various factors, including our business, operating results and financial condition, capital requirements, current and anticipated cash needs, plans for expansion, any legal or contractual limitation on our ability to pay dividends and other relevant factors. Dividends on common stock from the Company depend substantially upon receipt of dividends from the Bank, which is the Company’s predominant source of income. On July 21, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.20 per common share which is payable on August 18, 2021 to shareholders of record on August 4, 2021.

The Company is a bank holding company under the supervision of the Federal Reserve Bank. Bank holding companies are subject to capital adequacy requirements of the Federal Reserve under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and the regulations of the Federal Reserve. Heritage Bank is a federally insured institution and thereby is subject to the capital requirements established by the FDIC. The Federal Reserve capital requirements generally parallel the FDIC requirements. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management believes that as of June 30, 2021, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's categories. The following table represents the minimum required ratios of the Company and the Bank and the actual capital ratios at the periods indicated:

As of both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the capital measures reflect the revised CECL capital transition provisions adopted by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC that allow the Bank the option to delay for two years an estimate of CECL’s effect on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology’s effect on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period.

Under applicable capital requirements both the Company and the Bank are required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of common equity Tier 1 capital above 2.5% to avoid restrictions on certain activities including payment of dividends, stock repurchases and discretionary bonuses to executive officers. At June 30, 2021, the capital conservation buffer was 7.1% and 6.8% for the Company and the Bank, respectively.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures

This Form 10-Q contains certain financial measures not presented in accordance with GAAP in addition to financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-Q because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Company’s performance and asset quality reflected in the current quarter and comparable period results and facilitate comparison of its performance with the performance of its peers. These non-GAAP 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 financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures are presented below.

The Company believes presenting loan yield, excluding the effect of discount accretion on purchased loans, is useful in assessing the impact of acquisition accounting on loan yield as the effect of loan discount accretion is expected to decrease as the acquired loans mature or roll off our balance sheet. Similarly, presenting loan yield, excluding the effect of SBA PPP loans, is useful in assessing the impact of these special program loans that are anticipated to substantially decrease upon forgiveness by the SBA within a short time frame.

The Company considers presenting the ratio of ACL on loans to loans receivable, excluding SBA PPP loans, to be a useful measurement in evaluating the adequacy of the Company's ACL on loans as the balance of SBA PPP loans is significant to the loan portfolio, and since SBA PPP loans are guaranteed by the SBA, the Company has not provided an ACL on loans for SBA PPP loans.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to interest rate risk through our lending and deposit gathering activities. Our results of operations are highly dependent upon our ability to manage interest rate risk. We consider interest rate risk to be a significant market risk that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Interest rate risk is measured and assessed on a quarterly basis. In our opinion, there has not been a material change in our interest rate risk exposure since the information disclosed in our 2020 Annual Form 10-K.

Neither the Company nor the Bank maintains a trading account for any class of financial instrument or engages in hedging activities or purchases high risk derivative instruments. Moreover, neither the Company nor the Bank is subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk.

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 Section 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”)) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Company’s Disclosure Committee as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021 are 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 SEC’s rules and forms.
