             Cascade Financial Reports First Quarter Results:
   Record Growth in Checking Accounts with Balances up 83%; Total Loans
                              Increased 8%

Everett, WA – April 21, 2009 – Cascade Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: CASB), parent company of Cascade
Bank, today reported financial results for the first quarter 2009. During the quarter Cascade increased its provision
for loan losses to $13.9 million, and as a result, reported a net loss of $4.8 million. Income available for common
shareholders, which adjusts for the dividends to the U.S. Treasury paid on preferred stock, was a loss of $5.3 million
or $0.44 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2009, compared to earnings of $2.6 million, or $0.21 per diluted
share in the first quarter a year ago.

“Our underlying business performance for the quarter was strong, with steady loan growth and record checking
deposit growth. Total loans grew 8% year over year. Checking deposits were up 83% year over year and 46% from
the prior quarter,” stated Carol K. Nelson, President and CEO. “Net interest income for the quarter was up 6%, and
pre-tax, pre-provision, pre-Other Than Temporary Impairment (OTTI) earnings were up 17% compared to the year
ago quarter.”

“By increasing our provision for loan losses, we have taken a proactive step to continue to stay ahead of the real
estate and credit cycle curves,” added Nelson. “Our decision to build reserves is consistent with Cascade’s
historically strong credit culture and practices.” Nonperforming loans (NPLs) represented 4.05% of total loans at
March 31, 2009, compared to 3.20% or $40.3 million at the end of the preceding quarter and 1.50% or $17.3 million
at March 31, 2008.

The increased provision exceeded net charge-offs of $5.3 million by $8.6 million which allowed Cascade to
continue to build its allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses to total loans increased from 1.31% at
December 31, 2008, to 2.01% at March 31, 2009.

Items unique in the analysis of first quarter results include:

         Larger than historical provision for loan losses of $13.9 million.

         Fair value gain on Trust Preferred Securities of $1.8 million that represents the downward mark to market
         adjustment to value of Cascade’s $10.0 million 11% TPS obligation.

         Washington Public Deposit Protection Commission (WPDPC) assessment for public deposits of $368,000
         arising from the failure of the Bank of Clark County.

         Increased regular FDIC insurance premiums of $391,000, up 1,500% from first quarter 2008.

         The further OTTI mark to market of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Preferred Stock of $858,000.

Loan Portfolio

Total loans decreased by $7.4 million in the first quarter from the end of the year, but increased 8% or $98.0 million
on a year over year basis to $1.25 billion as of March 31, 2009. Cascade has not engaged in the practice of
subprime residential lending and the loan portfolio does not contain any such loans.

Cascade continues to work diligently to meet the credit needs of its community. As a participant in the U.S.
Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program, Cascade has increased its focus on residential lending as it works to
strengthen the health of the housing market. For example, Cascade has developed a special lending program to help
its builders/developers sell homes by offering low rate, low down payment loans to qualified buyers.

“While the issuance of preferred shares in November has enabled Cascade to increase its lending, total loans were
down as payoffs, pay downs and fortfeitures and foreclosures exceeded new loan originations of $29.0 million for
the first quarter,” said Lars Johnson, Chief Financial Officer. “The slower loan growth is also in response to
reduced market demand as borrowers remain hesitant to increase their obligations in the face of turbulent capital
markets and a weakening economy.”

Construction loans outstanding decreased 17% to $343 million at March 31, 2009, compared to $411 million a year
ago. In addition to payoffs, this reduction was due to the completion of projects which were moved to the
commercial real estate and multifamily portfolios as well as the transfer of $9.1 million of nonperforming loans to
the Real Estate Owned (REO) category. Commercial real estate loans increased 53% to $176 million partially as a
result of the reclassifications of $49.0 million from real estate construction as projects were completed and met the
required cash flow/debt coverage ratio requirements. Permanent multifamily loans increased substantially from year
ago levels to $96.8 million, partly as a result of reclassifications of $14.0 million from real estate construction as
projects were completed and met rental goals. Business loans increased 2% over the same period to $477
million. Home equity and consumer loans increased 9% to $30.6 million, while residential loans grew 25% to $127
million.

Credit Quality

Nonperforming loans (NPLs) increased during the quarter to $50.6 million, which represented 4.05% of total loans
at March 31, 2009, compared to 3.20% three months earlier. Additions to nonperforming loans for the quarter were
comprised of $23.7 million of construction loans less $9.1 million transferred to REO, a $2.3 million reduction
through the partial charge-offs of existing NPLs, and $2.0 million in pay downs. NPLs were $40.3 million at the
end of the preceding quarter and $17.3 million at March 31, 2008.

Total nonperforming loans

“As the Puget Sound housing market remains weak and continues to present challenges, we continue to build our
allowance for loan losses, with a provision expense of $13.9 million during the first quarter compared to net charge-
offs of $5.3 million,” said Disotell. Charge-offs during first quarter were comprised of $3.5 million in impairment of
the value of real estate collateral on construction and acquisition and development loans; a $1.3 million write-down
on property taken into REO; and a $420,000 charge-off on the liquidation of a business

loan. Net charge-offs were $506,000 in the previous quarter and $1.5 million in the first quarter a year ago. “We
are actively managing our loan portfolio, working with our customers to navigate through this challenging
economy,” added Disotell. During the first quarter, $7.7 million was transferred to REO (net of charge-offs)
resulting in total REO of $9.1 million at March 31, 2009. REO was $1.4 million at December 31, 2008.

Nonperforming assets were 3.60% of total assets at March 31, 2009, compared to 2.55% at the end of the preceding
quarter, and 1.16% a year ago. The total allowance for loan losses, which includes an $88,000 allowance for off-
balance sheet loan commitments, was $25.1 million at quarter-end, equal to 2.01% of total loans compared to 1.31%
at December 31, 2008, and 1.10% as of March 31, 2008.
Loans delinquent 31-90 days totaled $4.1 million, or 0.33% of total loans at March 31, 2009, compared to $9.0
million, or 0.73% of total loans at December 31, 2008 and $2.9 million, or 0.25% of total loans at March 31,
2008. The bank had one loan that was 90 days or more past due and still accruing totaling $1.9 million at March 31,
2009.


Deposit Growth

“We continued to successfully grow our total checking account balances, which were up $86.1 million, or 46% from
the prior quarter and up $123.9 million, or 83% compared to a year ago,” said Nelson. “This increase in core low-
cost deposits keeps our funding costs down and improves our net interest margin. It also demonstrates the
effectiveness of our strong sales culture and continued success of our High Performance Checking
program.” Personal checking account balances grew by 100% or $64.7 million over the last twelve months and
business checking balances grew 70% or $59.2 million during the same time period. The growth in business
checking balances was the combination of higher business escrow account balances, and the movement of $40.0
million of public funds previously in money market accounts and CDs into insured checking accounts.

Total deposits

Total assets grew $22.0 million in the first quarter from the year end and $156 million year over year to $1.66 billion
as of March 31, 2009, which is a 10% increase from March 31, 2008. The investment portfolio increased by $28.0
million during the quarter to $285 million. On a year over year basis, the growth in assets resulted from the $98.0
million loan growth, the $21.0 million in investment growth and an increase of $33.0 million in interest bearing
deposits.


Capital Management

Cascade remains well capitalized for regulatory purposes with a Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 9.66% and Risk Based
Capital Ratio of 13.02% as of March 31, 2009. Book value per common share was $9.86 at quarter-end, compared
to $10.27 a year ago and tangible book value was $7.80 per common share at quarter-end, compared to $8.18 a year
ago.

In March 2009, Cascade announced a reduction in its first quarter cash dividend to $0.01 per common share. “The
decision to conserve capital through a reduction in the dividend will further strengthen our ability to grow profitably
and weather this uncertain economic environment,quot; said Nelson.

On November 24, 2008, Cascade completed its $39.0 million capital raise as a participant in the U.S. Treasury
Department’s Capital Purchase Program. Under the terms of the transaction the company issued 38,970 shares of
Series A Fixed-Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, and a warrant to purchase 863,442 shares of the
company’s common stock at an exercise price of $6.77 per share. The preferred stock carries a 5% coupon for five
years, and 9% thereafter.


Operating Results
First quarter net interest income increased 6% to $11.1 million, compared to $10.5 million for the first quarter of
2008. Total other income increased 47% to $3.6 million for the quarter, compared to $2.5 million in the first quarter
a year ago, as FAS 159 fair value gains increased 487% from the first quarter a year ago. This fair value gain reflects
the mark to market as of March 31, 2009 of the Company’s 11% Trust Preferred Securities obligation.

Total other expense was $8.6 million in the first quarter of the year compared to $6.9 million in the first quarter a
year ago. The main increases in expense were the $368,000 assessment from the Washington Public Deposit
Protection Commission concerning the Bank of Clark County, a $364,000 increase in FDIC premiums and the
$858,000 OTTI charge taken during the first quarter of 2009 to position agency preferred securities for potential
sale. Compensation and personnel expenses, which included the cost of the new Burlington branch which opened in
May 2008, were up $100,000 for the quarter. Salary and bonus expense were down $55,000.

The efficiency ratio excluding the OTTI charge improved to 52.4% in the first quarter of 2009 compared to 55.3% in
the previous quarter and 53.6% in the first quarter a year ago.


Net Interest Margin & Interest Rate Risk

Cascade’s net interest margin improved to 3.03% for the first quarter of 2009 compared to 3.01% in the immediate
prior quarter and 3.02% for the first quarter a year ago. “We made steady progress on reducing our branch cost of
deposits and implementing floors on our variable rate loans, which helped our net interest margin during the first
quarter,” said Johnson. “Our yield on earning assets dropped 24 basis points compared to the previous quarter, and
the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 31 basis points.”

The following table depicts Cascade’s yield on assets, its cost of funds and the resulting spread and margin:

Q1 2009 Earning Report of Cascade Financial Corporation

  • 1. Contacts: Carol K. Nelson, CEO Lars Johnson, CFO NEWS RELEASE 425.339.5500 www.cascadebank.com Cascade Financial Reports First Quarter Results: Record Growth in Checking Accounts with Balances up 83%; Total Loans Increased 8% Everett, WA – April 21, 2009 – Cascade Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: CASB), parent company of Cascade Bank, today reported financial results for the first quarter 2009. During the quarter Cascade increased its provision for loan losses to $13.9 million, and as a result, reported a net loss of $4.8 million. Income available for common shareholders, which adjusts for the dividends to the U.S. Treasury paid on preferred stock, was a loss of $5.3 million or $0.44 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2009, compared to earnings of $2.6 million, or $0.21 per diluted share in the first quarter a year ago. “Our underlying business performance for the quarter was strong, with steady loan growth and record checking deposit growth. Total loans grew 8% year over year. Checking deposits were up 83% year over year and 46% from the prior quarter,” stated Carol K. Nelson, President and CEO. “Net interest income for the quarter was up 6%, and pre-tax, pre-provision, pre-Other Than Temporary Impairment (OTTI) earnings were up 17% compared to the year ago quarter.” “By increasing our provision for loan losses, we have taken a proactive step to continue to stay ahead of the real estate and credit cycle curves,” added Nelson. “Our decision to build reserves is consistent with Cascade’s historically strong credit culture and practices.” Nonperforming loans (NPLs) represented 4.05% of total loans at March 31, 2009, compared to 3.20% or $40.3 million at the end of the preceding quarter and 1.50% or $17.3 million at March 31, 2008. The increased provision exceeded net charge-offs of $5.3 million by $8.6 million which allowed Cascade to continue to build its allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses to total loans increased from 1.31% at December 31, 2008, to 2.01% at March 31, 2009. Items unique in the analysis of first quarter results include: Larger than historical provision for loan losses of $13.9 million. Fair value gain on Trust Preferred Securities of $1.8 million that represents the downward mark to market adjustment to value of Cascade’s $10.0 million 11% TPS obligation. Washington Public Deposit Protection Commission (WPDPC) assessment for public deposits of $368,000 arising from the failure of the Bank of Clark County. Increased regular FDIC insurance premiums of $391,000, up 1,500% from first quarter 2008. The further OTTI mark to market of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Preferred Stock of $858,000.
  • 2. 1Q09 Financial Highlights: (compared to 1Q08) Increased loan loss provision to $13.9 million. Allowance for loan losses to total loans grew to 2.01% at quarter end. Capital ratios remain strong: Tier 1 Capital Ratio at 9.66%; Risk Based Capital Ratio at 13.02%. Total loans increased 8% to $1.25 billion. Total deposits grew 7% to $1.02 billion. Total checking account balances increased 83%: Personal checking account balances grew 100%. Business checking account balances grew 70%. Total assets increased 10% to $1.66 billion. (more) Cascade Financial – 1Q09 Results April 21, 2009 Page 2 Loan Portfolio Total loans decreased by $7.4 million in the first quarter from the end of the year, but increased 8% or $98.0 million on a year over year basis to $1.25 billion as of March 31, 2009. Cascade has not engaged in the practice of subprime residential lending and the loan portfolio does not contain any such loans. Cascade continues to work diligently to meet the credit needs of its community. As a participant in the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program, Cascade has increased its focus on residential lending as it works to strengthen the health of the housing market. For example, Cascade has developed a special lending program to help its builders/developers sell homes by offering low rate, low down payment loans to qualified buyers. “While the issuance of preferred shares in November has enabled Cascade to increase its lending, total loans were down as payoffs, pay downs and fortfeitures and foreclosures exceeded new loan originations of $29.0 million for the first quarter,” said Lars Johnson, Chief Financial Officer. “The slower loan growth is also in response to reduced market demand as borrowers remain hesitant to increase their obligations in the face of turbulent capital markets and a weakening economy.” Construction loans outstanding decreased 17% to $343 million at March 31, 2009, compared to $411 million a year ago. In addition to payoffs, this reduction was due to the completion of projects which were moved to the commercial real estate and multifamily portfolios as well as the transfer of $9.1 million of nonperforming loans to the Real Estate Owned (REO) category. Commercial real estate loans increased 53% to $176 million partially as a result of the reclassifications of $49.0 million from real estate construction as projects were completed and met the required cash flow/debt coverage ratio requirements. Permanent multifamily loans increased substantially from year ago levels to $96.8 million, partly as a result of reclassifications of $14.0 million from real estate construction as projects were completed and met rental goals. Business loans increased 2% over the same period to $477 million. Home equity and consumer loans increased 9% to $30.6 million, while residential loans grew 25% to $127 million.

Additions to nonperforming loans for the quarter were comprised of $23.7 million of construction loans less $9.1 million transferred to REO, a $2.3 million reduction through the partial charge-offs of existing NPLs, and $2.0 million in pay downs. NPLs were $40.3 million at the end of the preceding quarter and $17.3 million at March 31, 2008.

Charge-offs during first quarter were comprised of $3.5 million in impairment of the value of real estate collateral on construction and acquisition and development loans; a $1.3 million write-down on property taken into REO; and a $420,000 charge-off on the liquidation of a business (more) Cascade Financial – 1Q09 Results April 21, 2009 Page 3 loan. Net charge-offs were $506,000 in the previous quarter and $1.5 million in the first quarter a year ago. “We are actively managing our loan portfolio, working with our customers to navigate through this challenging economy,” added Disotell. During the first quarter, $7.7 million was transferred to REO (net of charge-offs) resulting in total REO of $9.1 million at March 31, 2009. REO was $1.4 million at December 31, 2008. Nonperforming assets were 3.60% of total assets at March 31, 2009, compared to 2.55% at the end of the preceding quarter, and 1.16% a year ago. The total allowance for loan losses, which includes an $88,000 allowance for off- balance sheet loan commitments, was $25.1 million at quarter-end, equal to 2.01% of total loans compared to 1.31% at December 31, 2008, and 1.10% as of March 31, 2008.
  • 4. Loans delinquent 31-90 days totaled $4.1 million, or 0.33% of total loans at March 31, 2009, compared to $9.0 million, or 0.73% of total loans at December 31, 2008 and $2.9 million, or 0.25% of total loans at March 31, 2008. The bank had one loan that was 90 days or more past due and still accruing totaling $1.9 million at March 31, 2009. Deposit Growth “We continued to successfully grow our total checking account balances, which were up $86.1 million, or 46% from the prior quarter and up $123.9 million, or 83% compared to a year ago,” said Nelson. “This increase in core low- cost deposits keeps our funding costs down and improves our net interest margin. It also demonstrates the effectiveness of our strong sales culture and continued success of our High Performance Checking program.” Personal checking account balances grew by 100% or $64.7 million over the last twelve months and business checking balances grew 70% or $59.2 million during the same time period. The growth in business checking balances was the combination of higher business escrow account balances, and the movement of $40.0 million of public funds previously in money market accounts and CDs into insured checking accounts.

The investment portfolio increased by $28.0 million during the quarter to $285 million. On a year over year basis, the growth in assets resulted from the $98.0 million loan growth, the $21.0 million in investment growth and an increase of $33.0 million in interest bearing deposits. Capital Management Cascade remains well capitalized for regulatory purposes with a Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 9.66% and Risk Based Capital Ratio of 13.02% as of March 31, 2009. Book value per common share was $9.86 at quarter-end, compared to $10.27 a year ago and tangible book value was $7.80 per common share at quarter-end, compared to $8.18 a year ago. In March 2009, Cascade announced a reduction in its first quarter cash dividend to $0.01 per common share. “The decision to conserve capital through a reduction in the dividend will further strengthen our ability to grow profitably and weather this uncertain economic environment,quot; said Nelson. On November 24, 2008, Cascade completed its $39.0 million capital raise as a participant in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program. Under the terms of the transaction the company issued 38,970 shares of Series A Fixed-Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, and a warrant to purchase 863,442 shares of the company’s common stock at an exercise price of $6.77 per share. The preferred stock carries a 5% coupon for five years, and 9% thereafter. Operating Results
  • 5. First quarter net interest income increased 6% to $11.1 million, compared to $10.5 million for the first quarter of 2008. Total other income increased 47% to $3.6 million for the quarter, compared to $2.5 million in the first quarter a year ago, as FAS 159 fair value gains increased 487% from the first quarter a year ago. This fair value gain reflects the mark to market as of March 31, 2009 of the Company’s 11% Trust Preferred Securities obligation. (more) Cascade Financial – 1Q09 Results April 21, 2009 Page 4 Total other expense was $8.6 million in the first quarter of the year compared to $6.9 million in the first quarter a year ago. The main increases in expense were the $368,000 assessment from the Washington Public Deposit Protection Commission concerning the Bank of Clark County, a $364,000 increase in FDIC premiums and the $858,000 OTTI charge taken during the first quarter of 2009 to position agency preferred securities for potential sale. Compensation and personnel expenses, which included the cost of the new Burlington branch which opened in May 2008, were up $100,000 for the quarter. Salary and bonus expense were down $55,000. The efficiency ratio excluding the OTTI charge improved to 52.4% in the first quarter of 2009 compared to 55.3% in the previous quarter and 53.6% in the first quarter a year ago. Net Interest Margin & Interest Rate Risk Cascade’s net interest margin improved to 3.03% for the first quarter of 2009 compared to 3.01% in the immediate prior quarter and 3.02% for the first quarter a year ago. “We made steady progress on reducing our branch cost of deposits and implementing floors on our variable rate loans, which helped our net interest margin during the first quarter,” said Johnson. “Our yield on earning assets dropped 24 basis points compared to the previous quarter, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 31 basis points.” The following table depicts Cascade’s yield on assets, its cost of funds and the resulting spread and margin: 1Q09 4Q08 3Q08 2Q08 1Q08 4Q07 3Q07 2Q07 1Q07 Asset yield 5.83% 6.07% 6.67% 6.31% 6.62% 7.20% 7.29% 7.30% 7.17% Liability cost 3.02% 3.33% 3.44% 3.51% 4.03% 4.32% 4.42% 4.39% 4.38% Spread 2.81% 2.74% 3.23% 2.80% 2.59% 2.88% 2.87% 2.91% 2.79% Margin 3.03% 3.01% 3.52% 3.17% 3.02% 3.38% 3.37% 3.37% 3.26% Conference Call Cascade’s management team will host a conference call on Wednesday, April 22, 2009, at 11:00 a.m. PDT (2:00 p.m. EDT).
