Included in the construction/land category are “rollover” loans, which are loans that will convert upon completion of the construction period to permanent loans. At that time, the loans will be classified according to the underlying collateral. In addition, raw land or buildable lots, where the Company does not intend to finance the construction are included in the construction/land category. At December 31, 2017, we classified $71.4 million of multifamily loans, $35.9 million of commercial land loans, $2.6 million of one-to-four family residential and $5.3 million of commercial real estate loans as construction/land loans to facilitate the review of the composition of our loan portfolio. At December 31, 2016, $62.9 million of multifamily loans, $26.9 million of commercial land loans and $2.6 million one-to-four family residential loans were reclassified to the construction/land category.

At December 31, 2017, and 2016, there were no loans classified as held for sale.

Concentrations of credit. Most of the Bank’s lending activity occurs within the state of Washington. The primary market areas include King and to a lesser extent Pierce, Snohomish and Kitsap counties. At December 31, 2017, the Company’s loan portfolio consists of one-to-four family residential loans which comprised 25.5%, commercial real estate and multifamily loans were 33.0% and 16.9%, respectively, and construction/land loans were 21.7% of the total loan portfolio. Consumer and business loans accounted for the remaining 2.9% of the loan portfolio. Included in the one-to-four family residential, multifamily, commercial real estate, construction/land, and business loan portfolios at December 31, 2017 were $1.0 million, $10.7 million, $39.2 million, $27.4 million and $10.3 million, respectively, to the Company’s five largest borrowing relationships.

The Company originates both adjustable and fixed interest rate loans. The composition of loans receivable at December 31, 2017, and 2016, was as follows:

December 31, 2016
Fixed Rate			Adjustable Rate
Term to Maturity	Principal Balance		Term to Rate Adjustment	Principal Balance
(In thousands)
Due within one year	$	23,513	Due within one year	$	214,794
After one year through three years	106,138		After one year through three years	32,448
After three years through five years	71,251		After three years through five years	118,350

Thereafter	158,708		Thereafter	—
	$	504,673		$	395,514

The majority of the adjustable-rate loans are tied to the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal. The remaining adjustable-rate loans have interest rate adjustment limitations and are generally indexed to the FHLB Long-Term Bullet advance rates published by the FHLB. Future market factors may affect the correlation of the interest rate adjustment with the rates paid on short‑term deposits that have been primarily utilized to fund these loans.

ALLL. When the Company classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, pursuant to Federal regulations, it may establish a specific reserve in an amount deemed prudent to address the risk specifically or may allow the loss to be addressed in the general allowance. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to the particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as a loss, pursuant to Federal regulations, it is required to charge-off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. The determination as to the classification of the Company’s assets and the amount of valuation allowances is subject to review by bank regulators, who can require the establishment of additional loss allowances.

Loan grades are used by the Company to identify and track potential problem loans which do not rise to the levels described for substandard, doubtful, or loss. The grades for watch and special mention are assigned to loans which have been criticized based upon known characteristics such as periodic payment delinquency or stale financial information from the borrower and/or guarantors. Loans identified as criticized (watch and special mention) or classified (substandard, doubtful or loss) are subject to problem loan reporting every three months.

The following tables summarize changes in the ALLL and loan portfolio by type of loan and reserve method for the periods indicated.

Nonaccrual Loans. Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on nonaccrual when they are 90 days delinquent or when, in management’s opinion, the borrower is unable to meet scheduled payment obligations.

In order to return a nonaccrual loan to accrual status, each loan is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The Company evaluates the borrower’s financial condition to ensure that future loan payments are reasonably assured. The Company also takes into consideration the borrower’s willingness and ability to make the loan payments and historical repayment performance. The Company requires the borrower to make loan payments consistently for a period of at least six months as agreed to under the terms of the loan agreement before the Company will consider reclassifying the loan to accrual status.

The following table is a summary of nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2017, and 2016, by type of loan:

Nonperforming loans, net of LIP, were $179,000 and $858,000 at December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. Foregone interest on nonaccrual loans for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 were $26,000, $51,000 and $103,000, respectively.

Impaired loans. The loan portfolio is constantly being monitored by management for delinquent loans and changes in the financial condition of each borrower. When an issue is identified with a borrower and it is determined that the loan needs to be classified as nonperforming and/or impaired, an evaluation of the collateral is performed prior to the end of the financial reporting period and, if necessary, an appraisal is ordered in accordance with the Company’s appraisal policy guidelines. Based on this evaluation, any additional provision for loan loss or charge-offs that may be needed is recorded prior to the end of the financial reporting period.

There were no commitments to advance funds related to impaired loans at December 31, 2017, and 2016.

Troubled Debt Restructurings. The following is a summary of information pertaining to TDRs:

Performing TDRs	$	17,805	$	30,083
Nonaccrual TDRs	—		174
Total TDRs	$	17,805	$	30,257

The accrual status of a loan may change after it has been classified as a TDR. Management considers the following in determining the accrual status of restructured loans: (1) if the loan was on accrual status prior to the restructuring, the borrower has demonstrated performance under the previous terms, and a credit evaluation shows the borrower’s capacity to continue to perform under the restructured terms (both principal and interest payments), the loan will remain on accrual at the time of the restructuring; (2) if the loan was on nonaccrual status before the restructuring, and the Company’s credit evaluation shows the borrower’s capacity to meet the restructured terms, the loan would remain as nonaccrual for a minimum of six months until the borrower has demonstrated a reasonable period of sustained repayment performance (thereby providing reasonable assurance as to the ultimate collection of principal and interest in full under the modified terms).

The following table presents for the periods indicated TDRs and their recorded investment prior to the modification and after the modification:

At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had no commitments to extend additional credit to borrowers whose loan terms have been modified in a TDR. All TDRs are also classified as impaired loans and are included in the loans individually evaluated for impairment in the calculation of the ALLL.

TDRs resulted in no charge-offs to the ALLL for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no payment defaults on loans modified as TDRs within the previous 12 months.

Credit Quality Indicators. The Company utilizes a nine-point risk rating system and assigns a risk rating for all credit exposures. The risk rating system is designed to define the basic characteristics and identify risk elements of each credit extension. Credits risk rated 1 through 5 are considered to be “pass” credits. Pass credits can be assets where there is virtually no credit risk, such as cash secured loans with funds on deposit with the Bank. Pass credits also include credits that are on the Company’s watch list, where the borrower exhibits potential weaknesses, which may, if not checked or corrected, negatively affect the borrower’s financial capacity and threaten their ability to fulfill debt obligations in the future. Credits classified as special mention are risk rated 6 and possess weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. Special mention assets do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification in the substandard, doubtful or loss categories. Substandard credits are risk rated 7. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and payment capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful are risk rated 8 and have all the weaknesses inherent in those credits classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values. Assets classified as loss are risk rated 9 and are considered uncollectible and cannot be justified as a viable asset for the Company. As of December 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company had no loans rated as doubtful or loss.
