PROXY STATEMENT
Annual Meeting of Stockholders
Wednesday, June 26, 2019

GENERAL INFORMATION

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Broadway Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the "Annual Meeting") to be held at the Company's principal executive offices, 5055 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 500, Los Angeles, California, 90036, at 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 26, 2019, and at any postponement or adjournment thereof. This Proxy Statement and the accompanying form of proxy were first mailed to stockholders on or about May 17, 2019.

The Company was incorporated under Delaware law in September 1995 for the purpose of acquiring and holding all of the outstanding capital stock of Broadway Federal Bank, f.s.b. ("Broadway Federal" or the "Bank") as part of the Bank's conversion from a federally chartered mutual savings and loan association to a federally chartered stock savings bank (the "Conversion"). The Conversion was completed and the Bank became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company on January 8, 1996. Throughout this Proxy Statement, the terms "we", "us", "our" and the "Company" refer to Broadway Financial Corporation and, unless otherwise indicated, such references include the Bank as the Company's predecessor.

THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND THE COMPANY'S ANNUAL REPORT TO STOCKHOLDERS ARE
AVAILABLE AT http://www.broadwayfederalbank.com

RECORD DATE AND VOTING OF SHARES

The Board has selected May 3, 2019 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. A total of 19,123,455 shares of the Company's voting common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Voting Common Stock"), were outstanding at the close of business on that date. A majority of the shares of Voting Common Stock entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders will be entitled to cast one vote for each share of Voting Common Stock held by them of record at the close of business on the record date on any matter that may be presented at the Annual Meeting for consideration and action by the stockholders and on which they are entitled to vote.

Table of Contents

Abstentions will be treated as shares of Voting Common Stock that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, but as not voted for purposes of determining the approval of any matter submitted for a vote of the stockholders. If a broker indicates on its proxy that the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter as to certain shares of Voting Common Stock, commonly referred to as "broker non-votes", then those shares will be counted for general quorum purposes, but will not be considered as present and entitled to vote with respect to that matter.

A plurality of votes cast by the holders of shares of Voting Common Stock will be required for the election of directors. The affirmative vote of the majority of the shares of Voting Common Stock voting on the proposal will be required to: (i) ratify the appointment of Moss Adams LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, and (ii) adopt the non-binding proposal to approve executive compensation described in this Proxy Statement. Thus, abstentions and broker non-votes will not have any effect in the voting on these proposals.

All valid proxies received in response to this solicitation will be voted in accordance with the instructions indicated thereon by the stockholders giving such proxies. If no contrary instructions are given, such proxies will be voted FOR the election of the nominees named in this Proxy Statement as directors, and FOR approval of each of the other proposals described in this Proxy Statement. Although the Board currently knows of no other matter to be presented at the Annual Meeting, if other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting and may properly be acted upon, the proxies solicited hereby will be voted in accordance with the best judgment of the persons named in such proxies.

REVOCATION OF PROXIES

Any stockholder may revoke his or her proxy at any time before it is voted at the Annual Meeting by delivering a later signed and dated proxy card or other written notice of revocation to Alice Wong, Corporate Secretary of the Company, at 5055 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 500, Los Angeles, California 90036. A proxy will also be considered revoked if the stockholder executing the proxy is present at the Annual Meeting and chooses to vote in person.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

Proxies are being solicited by this Proxy Statement on behalf of the Board. The principal solicitation of proxies is being conducted by mail. Computershare, the Company's transfer agent, will assist in the solicitation of proxies at no additional fee, but will be reimbursed for certain expenses. To the extent necessary, proxies may be solicited by officers, directors and employees of the Company or the Bank, and the Company's financial advisor, none of whom will receive additional compensation for such solicitation. Proxies may be solicited by telephone, personal contact or other means. The Company will bear the cost of this solicitation of proxies, including postage, printing and handling, and will reimburse brokers and other nominee holders of shares of the Company's Voting Common Stock for their expenses incurred in forwarding solicitation material to beneficial owners of such shares.

Director Independence

We have adopted standards for director independence pursuant to the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") listing standards. The Board has considered relationships, transactions and/or arrangements with each of its directors, and has determined that all of the Company's non-employee directors are "independent" under applicable Nasdaq listing standards and Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules.

Board Leadership Structure

The Company currently operates under a leadership structure in which the positions of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company are separated, such that each position is held by a different person. The position of Chairman of the Board is held by Mr. Roberts, who is an independent director. As the Chairman of the Board, Mr. Roberts provides leadership to the Board and works with the Board and executive management to define the Board's structure and coordinate its activities in the fulfillment of its responsibilities. In addition, he presides over periodic executive sessions of the Board, coordinates the agenda for meetings and serves as a liaison between the independent directors and management.

Mr. Bradshaw serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. As such, he has general responsibility for supervision and management of the business affairs of the Company, and is responsible for assuring that policy decisions of the Board are implemented as adopted. He, in conjunction with the Board, is responsible for the development and implementation of the Company's strategic plans.

The Board intends to continue to separate the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions. This structure ensures a greater role for the independent directors in the oversight of the Company and active participation of the independent directors in setting agendas and establishing priorities and procedures for the work of the Board. In addition, this structure allows Mr. Bradshaw to focus his attention on implementing the Company's strategic plans, while a separate Chairman can devote full attention to Board leadership functions. The Board will continue to periodically review our leadership structure and may make such changes in the future as it deems appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Risk Oversight

The Board's role in the Company's risk management process includes reviewing regular reports from senior management on areas of material risk to the Company, including operational, financial, legal, regulatory, strategic and reputational risks. The Board reviews these reports to enable it to understand and assess the Company's risk identification, risk management and risk mitigation strategies. While the Board has the ultimate oversight responsibility for the risk management process, various committees of both management and the Board also have responsibility for risk management. The Risk and Compliance Committee of the Bank's board of directors reviews the development, implementation and maintenance of risk management processes from a Company-wide perspective, and assesses the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company's risk management policies. In accordance with our audit committee charter, the Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight of the Company's risk assessment and risk management policies as well as the procedures and the safety and soundness of the Company. The Loan Committee evaluates and manages credit risk and loan concentration risk, while the Internal Asset Review Committee reviews loan classifications and loss risk in the Bank's loan portfolio. In addition, the Asset and Liability Committee manages investment, interest rate, and financial risk exposure, the Compensation and Benefits Committee oversees the management of risks relating to our executive and non-executive compensation

Table of Contents

plans and arrangements and the Corporate Governance Committee manages risks associated with the independence of the Board, potential conflicts of interest, and overall governance of the Company. While each committee oversees certain risks and the management of such risks, the entire Board is regularly informed of such risks through committee and management reports.

Identifying and Evaluating Nominees for Director

The Company's Corporate Governance Committee is charged with the responsibilities of identifying and recommending candidates to be nominated for election as directors. The committee considers candidates suggested by its members, other directors and stockholders in anticipation of upcoming director elections and other potential or expected Board vacancies. The committee will consider candidates nominated by stockholders provided that the stockholder submitting a nomination has complied with procedures set forth in the Company's Bylaws. See "Stockholder Proposals for Presentation at the Annual Meeting" for additional information regarding stockholder nominations of director candidates.

All director candidates, including those nominated by stockholders, are evaluated on the same basis. In determining the needs of the Board and the Company, the Corporate Governance Committee considers the qualifications of current directors and consults with other members of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer and, where appropriate, external advisors. Generally the committee believes that all directors should exemplify the highest standards of personal and professional integrity, have broad experience in positions with a high degree of responsibility and the ability to commit adequate time and effort to serve as a director. Director candidates who are not current directors are interviewed by members of the committee and the Chief Executive Officer and the results of those interviews are considered by the Committee and the Board in their deliberations.

Neither the Corporate Governance Committee nor the Board has a formal policy on the consideration of diversity in identifying director candidates, although both consider diversity when identifying and evaluating candidates. The Board may require a candidate to be sufficiently diverse from the other Board members, in ethnicity, gender, educational, professional and/or managerial backgrounds and experience, to provide a range of perspectives and interests among the members of the Board.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The following Audit Committee Report does not constitute soliciting material and shall not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other filings by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under the Exchange Act, except to the extent we specifically incorporate this Report by reference.

The Audit Committee oversees the Company's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. Management has the primary responsibility for the consolidated financial statements and the reporting process, including the Company's systems of internal controls. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for auditing the Company's consolidated financial statements and expressing an opinion as to their conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board. The Charter provides, among other things, that the Audit Committee has full authority to engage the independent auditor, independent advisors, and consultants.

In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report with management and the independent auditors, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles applied, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

The Audit Committee reviewed with the independent registered public accounting firm such matters as are required to be discussed with the Committee under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"), including PCAOB Auditing Standard 1301, "Communications with Audit Committees". In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the auditors' independence from management and the Company, including the matters in the written disclosures received by the Committee as required by the rules of the PCAOB regarding the independence of such auditors, and has considered the compatibility of non-audit services provided by the auditors with the auditors' independence.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company's internal and independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. The Audit Committee meets with the internal and independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations or audits, their evaluations of the Company's internal controls and the overall quality of the Company's financial reporting.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Audit Committee also approved the selection of Moss Adams LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

U. S. Treasury Department's TARP compensation regulations), and eligibility to participate in all employee benefit plans applicable to senior executive officers, including the Bank's annual cash incentive compensation plan (excluding Mr. Bradshaw to the extent required by the TARP compensation regulations), the Company's 401(k) plan (with continuation of the Company's employee contribution matching policy as of the effective date of the Employment Agreements), and medical, dental, life and long-term disability programs.

The Employment Agreements may be terminated by the Company with or without Cause, may be terminated by the NEO with or without Good Reason, and will also terminate in the event of the death or Disability (as defined in the Employment Agreements) of an NEO. "Cause" is defined in the Employment Agreements to include, among other reasons: failure substantially to perform the NEO's duties, or material breach by the NEO of the Employment Agreement or any material written policy of the Company, in each case if not cured within 30 days after notice from the Board requiring such cure; willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (excluding traffic violations and similar offenses); entry of a final regulatory cease and desist order against the NEO; and other offenses involving fraud, moral turpitude, or dishonesty involving personal profit. "Good Reason" is defined in the Employment Agreements to mean, among events: demotion, or loss of title or authority, of an NEO; reduction of an NEO's base salary; relocation of an NEO's primary work location by more than 20 miles; or material breach of an NEO's Employment Agreement by the Company.

In the event of termination of an Employment Agreement by the Company due to Disability or without Cause, or by the NEO for Good Reason, the NEO would be entitled to receive all amounts accrued for payment to the NEO to the date of termination and not previously paid, including base salary, unreimbursed business expenses, vested amounts under the Company's 401(k) Plan and other employee benefit plans (collectively, the "Accrued Obligations"). The NEO would also be entitled to continue to receive an amount equal the NEO's monthly base salary for a specified period (the "Severance Period") and would continue during the Severance Period to be entitled to receive the NEO's automobile allowance and payment by the Company of the NEO's life, long-term disability, medical and dental insurance premiums provided for in the NEO's Employment Agreement (such payments during the Severance Period being collectively referred to as the "Severance Payments"). The Severance Periods specified in the Employment Agreements for the respective NEOs are: Mr. Bradshaw 36 months; Ms. Battey 24 months; Mr. Bellefeuille 30 months; and Ms. McCloud 18 months. In the event of termination of an Employment Agreement for Cause, or due to death or voluntary termination by an NEO without Good Reason, the NEO or the NEO's estate would only be entitled to receive payment of the Accrued Obligations for such NEO.

The Employment Agreements provide that if the employment of an NEO is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the NEO for Good Reason within two years after a Change in Control of the Company has occurred, the NEO will be entitled to receive a single lump sum payment equal to the present value of the Severance Payments described above. The present value of the Severance Payments would be calculated using the Applicable Federal Rate published by the Internal Revenue Service from time to time. "Change in Control" is defined in the Employment Agreements to include: events that would be required to be reported as such pursuant to the Exchange Act or federal banking laws and regulations; any person or entity acquiring beneficial ownership of 50% or more of the Company's outstanding securities; and changes in the composition of the Board of the Company that result, with certain exceptions, in directors who were members of the Board as of the effective date of the Employment Agreements ceasing to constitute a majority of the Board.

Incentive Compensation

The Bank's Incentive Plan for Management ("Incentive Plan") is designed to reward management for productivity, high performance and implementing the business plan and vision of the Bank. The Compensation and Benefits Committee establishes performance objectives in advance of each year. These performance objectives are derived from the Strategic Plan, which is reviewed and approved by the Board annually, and typically covers the ensuing three years. The compensation payable under the Incentive Plan is tied directly to the attainment of the pre-established performance objectives. The Incentive Plan provides for a minimum, target and maximum incentive opportunity equal to 25%, 40% and 65%, respectively, of base salary for the CEO and 20%, 35% and 50%, respectively, of base salary for the senior executive officers. Due to restrictions applicable to companies that participated in the U.S. Treasury Department's Capital Assistance Program, the CEO cannot participate in the Incentive Plan until the aggregate financial assistance received by the Company from U.S. Treasury has been repaid.

In order for the Incentive Plan participants to receive any form of payout, a minimum financial threshold of 80% of the Board approved consolidated net earnings for the Incentive Plan year must be achieved. For year 2018, the Board established specific objectives in the following areas:

•: Net Earnings
•: Capital
•: Compliance
•: Net Loan Growth
•: Asset Quality
•: Core Deposit Growth

At the end of the Incentive Plan year, each goal was assessed and results calculated. The Compensation and Benefits Committee, pursuant to the terms of the Incentive Plan, determined that the pre-established objectives for year 2018 were achieved.

Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2018

There were no grants of restricted stock or options to the NEOs for the year ended December 31, 2018. The CEO was awarded 97,195 and 129,270 cash-settled restricted stock units ("RSUs") during 2018 and 2017, respectively. All RSUs vest at the end of two years from the date of the grant and are subject to forfeiture until vested. Each RSU entitles the CEO to receive cash equal to the fair market value of one share of common stock on the applicable payout date.
