Cash and cash equivalents increased $112.1 million, or 103.5%, to $220.5 million at September 30, 2023 from $108.4 million at June 30, 2023 due primarily to a decrease in investment securities.
Total investment securities decreased $136.4 million, or 6.7%, to $1.89 billion at September 30, 2023 from $2.03 billion at June 30, 2023. Total investment securities available for sale decreased $129.0 million due primarily to maturities and prepayments of $85.4 million which included $40.8 million in securities called during the quarter, as well as $47.2 million in investment securities sold at a loss of $1.9 million. The decreases in investment securities available for sale were partially offset by purchases of $22.7 million.

Allowance for Credit Losses and Provision for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") on loans as a percentage of loans receivable was 1.10% at September 30, 2023 compared to 1.09% at June 30, 2023. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a $635,000 reversal of provision for credit losses on loans, compared to a $2.0 million provision for credit losses on loans during the second quarter of 2023. The reversal of the provision for credit losses on loans during the third quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by net recoveries for the quarter of $1.2 million.
During the third quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a $243,000 reversal of provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments compared to a $79,000 reversal of provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments during the second quarter of 2023. The increase in the reversal of provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments during the third quarter of 2023 was due primarily to an increase in loan utilization rates in commercial and industrial loans which reduced the unfunded exposure.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income decreased $206,000, or 0.4%, during the third quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2023 due primarily to an increase of $3.6 million in interest expense partially offset by a $3.4 million increase in interest income. Net interest margin decreased nine basis points to 3.47% during the third quarter of 2023 from 3.56% during the second quarter of 2023. The cost of interest bearing deposits increased 31 basis points to 1.23% for the third quarter of 2023 as compared to 0.92% for the second quarter of 2023. This increase was primarily due to customers transferring balances from non-maturity deposits to higher rate certificates of deposit and secondarily to an increase in brokered deposits. The yield on interest earning assets increased 12 basis points to 4.58% for the third quarter of 2023 as compared to 4.46% for the second quarter of 2023. The yield on loans receivable, net increased 11 basis points to 5.30% during the third quarter of 2023 as compared to 5.19% during the second quarter of 2023 due to higher rates on new and renewed loans. The yield on interest earning deposits increased 32 basis points to 5.42% during the third quarter of 2023 as compared to 5.10% during the second quarter of 2023 due to an increase in market rates.
Net interest income decreased $3.7 million, or 6.2%, during the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 and the net interest margin decreased ten basis points from 3.57% during this same period. The decrease was due primarily to an increase in interest expense due to an increase in deposit rates and borrowing expense partially offset by an increase in yields earned on interest earning assets following increases in market interest rates.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense decreased $355,000, or 0.9%, during the third quarter of 2023 from the second quarter of 2023. Compensation and employee benefits increased $227,000 as one-time adjustments to reduce incentive accruals were made during the second quarter of 2023. Professional services decreased due a decrease in contracted services during the third quarter of 2023. Other expense decreased primarily due to a decrease in customer account loss expense as compared to the second quarter of 2023.
Noninterest expense increased $1.8 million, or 4.7%, during the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due primarily to an $802,000 increase in compensation and employee benefits resulting from an increase in the number of full-time equivalent employees including the addition of commercial and relationship banking teams in 2023 and an increase in salaries and wages due to upward market pressure. Occupancy and equipment expense increased due to the expansion into Eugene, Oregon and Boise, Idaho. Data processing costs increased due primarily to the expansion of digital services including the

addition of the ability to open accounts online. Federal deposit insurance premiums increased due to the increase in the assessment rate starting in January 2023.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
This earnings release contains certain financial measures not presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") in addition to financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Company’s capital, performance and asset quality reflected in the current quarter and comparable period results and to 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 considers the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio and tangible book value per share to be useful measurements of the adequacy of the Company’s capital levels.

Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact, are based on certain assumptions and 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 as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would” and “could.” These statements relate to Heritage Financial Corporation’s (“we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”) financial condition, results of operations, beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, assumptions and statements about future performance or business. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results for future periods to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements by, or on behalf of, the Company and could negatively affect the Company’s operating results and stock price performance. Factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: • potential adverse impacts to economic conditions nationally or in our local market areas, other markets where the Company has lending relationships, or other aspects of the Company’s business operations or financial markets, including, without limitation, as a result of employment levels, labor shortages and the effects of inflation, a potential recession or slowed economic growth; • changes in the interest rate environment, including the recent increases in the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System benchmark rate and duration at which such increased interest rate levels are maintained, which could adversely affect our revenues and expenses, the value of assets and obligations, and the availability and cost of capital and liquidity; • the impact of continuing inflation and the current and future monetary policies of the Federal Reserve in response thereto; • the impact of bank failures or adverse developments at other banks and related negative publicity about the banking industry in general on investor and depositor sentiment regarding the stability and liquidity of banks; • the effects of any federal government shutdown; • legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business, including changes in banking, securities and tax law, in regulatory policies and principles, or the interpretation of regulatory capital or other rules; • credit and interest rate risks associated with the Company’s businesses, customers, borrowings, repayment, investment, and deposit practices; • fluctuations in deposits; • liquidity issues, including our ability to borrow funds or raise additional capital, if necessary; • 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; • effects of critical accounting policies and judgments, including 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; and • the effects of climate change, severe weather events, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics and other public health crises, acts of war or terrorism, and other external events on our business. Further, certain risks and important factors that could affect the Company’s future results are identified in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and other reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including among other things under the heading “Risk Factors” in such Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward- looking statement, whether to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made, to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, or otherwise. Non-GAAP Financial Information The Company reports its results in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP performance measures used in managing the business may provide meaningful information about underlying trends in its business. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Slides containing a discussion and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures are contained at the end of this presentation. All dollars throughout the entire presentation are in millions unless otherwise noted, except per share amounts. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
