Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. (the "Company"), an Iowa corporation formed in 1983, is a bank holding company under the BHCA and a financial holding company under the GLBA. Our principal executive offices are located at 102 South Clinton Street, Iowa City, Iowa 52240.

The Company owns all of the outstanding common stock of MidWestOne Bank, an Iowa state non-member bank chartered in 1934 with its main office in Iowa City, Iowa. We operate primarily through MidWestOne Bank, our bank subsidiary.

On June 9, 2022, the Company acquired Iowa First Bancshares Corp., a bank holding company whose wholly-owned banking subsidiaries were First National Bank of Muscatine and First National Bank in Fairfield, community banks located in Muscatine and Fairfield, Iowa, respectively. Immediately following the completion of the acquisition, First National Bank of Muscatine and First National Bank in Fairfield were merged with and into the Bank. As consideration for the merger, we paid cash in the amount of $46.7 million.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements are omitted. In the opinion of management, all significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated and adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals and considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim periods, have been included. The current period's results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that ultimately may be achieved for the year. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect: (1) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (2) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and (3) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information available to management at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 may not be indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2023, or for any other period.

All significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the quarterly financial statements are disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023.

Segment Reporting

The Company’s activities are considered to be one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes. The Company is engaged in the business of commercial and retail banking and trust and investment management services with operations throughout central and eastern Iowa, the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area of Minnesota, southwestern Wisconsin, Naples and Fort Myers, Florida, and Denver, Colorado. Substantially all income is derived from a diverse base of commercial, mortgage and retail lending activities, and investments.

Effect of New Financial Accounting Standards

Accounting Guidance Pending Adoption at March 31, 2023

On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (ASC 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASC 848 contains optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. Certain optional expedients and exceptions for contract modifications and hedging relationships were amended in ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope Refinement, issued on January 7, 2021. In addition, ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset

Table of Contents

Date of Topic 848, deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024, after which time entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848. The adoption of ASU 2020-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Guidance Adopted at March 31, 2023

On March 31, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. For creditors that have adopted the CECL accounting guidance within ASU 2016-13, the amendments eliminate the accounting guidance for TDRs within ASC 310-40, while also enhancing the disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, public business entities must also disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC 326-20. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and should be applied prospectively, with an option to apply a modified retrospective transition approach for the recognition and measurement of TDRs. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 was applied prospectively and did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

2. Business Combinations

On June 9, 2022, the Company acquired 100% of the equity of IOFB through a merger and acquired its wholly-owned subsidiaries FNBM and FNBF for cash consideration of $46.7 million. The primary reasons for the acquisition were to enter the Muscatine, Iowa market and increase our presence in Fairfield, Iowa. Immediately following the completion of the acquisition, FNBM and FNBF were merged with and into the Bank.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible, were recorded at their fair values as of the June 9, 2022 acquisition date net of any applicable tax effects using a methodology similar to the Company's legacy assets and liabilities (refer to Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements for additional information regarding the fair value methodology). The bargain purchase gain, which is recorded in 'Other' noninterest income, was generated as a result of the estimated fair value of identifiable net assets acquired exceeding the merger consideration. Bargain purchase gains are recorded net of deferred taxes and are treated as permanent differences, resulting in lower effective tax rate in the period recorded.

The table below summarizes the amounts recognized as of the acquisition date for each major class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

3. Debt Securities

On January 1, 2022, the Company transferred, at fair value, $1.25 billion of mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and securities issued by state and political subdivisions from the available for sale classification to the held to maturity classification. The net unrealized after tax loss of $11.5 million associated with those re-classified securities remained in accumulated other comprehensive loss and will be amortized over the remaining life of the securities. At March 31, 2023, there was $8.2 million of net unrealized after tax loss remaining in accumulated other comprehensive loss. No gains or losses were recognized in earnings at the time of the transfer.

The following tables summarize the amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses and the resulting fair value of debt securities for the periods indicated.

The Company evaluates debt securities held to maturity for current expected credit losses. There were no debt securities held to maturity classified as nonaccrual or past due as of March 31, 2023. Held-to-maturity securities are evaluated on a quarterly basis using historical probability of default and loss given default information specific to the investment category. If this evaluation determines that credit losses exist, an allowance for credit loss is recorded and included in earnings as a component of credit loss expense. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that no allowance for credit loss for these securities was required.

Loans with unpaid principal in the amount of $1.24 billion and $1.01 billion at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, were pledged to the FHLB as collateral for borrowings.

Non-accrual and Delinquent Status

Loans are placed on non-accrual when (1) payment in full of principal and interest is no longer expected or (2) principal or interest has been in default for 90 days or more for all loan types, except owner occupied residential real estate, which are moved to non-accrual at 120 days or more past due, unless the loan is both well secured with marketable collateral and in the process of collection. All loans rated doubtful or worse, and certain loans rated substandard, are placed on non-accrual.

A non-accrual loan may be restored to an accrual status when (1) all past due principal and interest has been paid (excluding renewals and modifications that involve the capitalizing of interest) or (2) the loan becomes well secured with marketable collateral and is in the process of collection. An established track record of performance is also considered when determining accrual status.

Loans are considered past due or delinquent when the contractual principal or interest due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement or any portion thereof remains unpaid after the due date of the scheduled payment.

The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans based on delinquency status:

Credit Quality Information

The Company aggregates loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, and other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually to classify the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes non-homogenous loans, such as agricultural, commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and non-owner occupied residential real estate loans. Loans not meeting the criteria described below that are analyzed individually are considered to be pass-rated. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention/Watch - A special mention/watch asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention/watch assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

Substandard - Substandard loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Table of Contents

Doubtful - Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently known facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss - Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.

Homogenous loans, including owner occupied residential real estate and consumer loans, are not individually risk rated. Instead, these loans are categorized based on performance: performing and nonperforming. Nonperforming loans include those loans on nonaccrual and loans greater than 90 days past due and on accrual.

The following table sets forth the amortized cost basis of loans by class of receivable by credit quality indicator, and vintage, in addition to the current period gross write-offs by class of receivable and vintage, based on the most recent analysis performed, as of March 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2023, there were no 'loss' rated credits.

Allowance for Credit Losses

At March 31, 2023, the economic forecast used by the Company showed the following: (1) Midwest unemployment – increases over the next four forecasted quarters; (2) Year-to-year change in national retail sales - increases over the next four forecasted quarters; (3) Year-to-year change in CRE Index - increase in the first forecasted quarter and declines in the second through fourth forecasted quarters; (4) Year-to-year change in U.S. GDP - increases over the next four forecasted quarters; (5) Year-to-year change in National Home Price Index – declines over the next four forecasted quarters; and (6) Rental Vacancy - increases over the next four forecasted quarters. In addition, management utilized qualitative factors to adjust the calculated ACL as appropriate. Qualitative factors are based on management’s judgment of company, market, industry or business specific data, changes in underlying loan composition of specific portfolios, trends relating to credit quality, delinquency, non-performing and adversely rated loans, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions.

The increase in the ACL between March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is primarily driven by reserves taken to support loan growth. Net loan charge-offs were $0.3 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to net loan charge-offs of $2.2 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2022.

We have made a policy election to report interest receivable as a separate line on the balance sheet. Accrued interest receivable, which is recorded within 'Other Assets', totaled $16.0 million at March 31, 2023 and $15.3 million at December 31, 2022 and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. The changes in the allowance for credit losses by portfolio segment were as follows:

The Company uses derivative instruments to hedge its exposure to economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk. Certain hedging relationships are formally designated and qualify for hedge accounting under GAAP as fair value or cash flow hedges.

Fair Value Hedges - Derivatives are designated as fair value hedges to limit the Company's exposure to changes in the fair value of assets or liabilities due to movements in interest rates. The Company entered into pay-fixed receive-floating interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in fair value in certain fixed-rate assets. The gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in interest income.

Cash Flow Hedges - Derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges in order to minimize the variability in cash flows of earning assets or forecasted transactions caused by movement in interest rates. In March 2023, the Company entered into pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swaps with a cumulative notional amount of $50.0 million to hedge against adverse fluctuations in interest rates by reducing exposure to variability in cash flows relating to interest payments on the Company's variable rate debt. The interest rate swaps were designated as a cash flow hedge. The gain or loss on the derivative was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into interest expense, as applicable, in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. During 2023, the Company estimates that an additional $561 thousand of income will be reclassified into interest expense.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Interest Rate Swaps - The Company periodically enters into commercial loan interest rate swap agreements in order to provide commercial loan customers with the ability to convert from variable to fixed interest rates. These derivative contracts relate to transactions in which the Company enters into an interest rate swap with a customer, while simultaneously entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with an institutional counterparty.

Credit Risk Participation Agreements -The Company enters into RPAs to manage the credit exposure on interest rate contracts associated with a syndicated loan. The Company may enter into protection purchased RPAs with institutional counterparties to decrease or increase its exposure to a borrower. Under the RPA, the Company will receive or make payment if a borrower defaults on the related interest rate contract. The notional amount of the RPAs reflects the Company’s pro-rata share of the derivative instrument.

Interest Rate Forward Loan Sales Contracts & Interest Rate Lock Commitments - The Company enters into forward delivery contracts to sell residential mortgage loans at specific prices and dates in order to hedge the interest rate risk in its portfolio of mortgage loans held for sale and its residential mortgage interest rate lock commitments.

Offsetting of Derivatives

The Company has entered into agreements with certain counterparty financial institutions, which include master netting agreements. However, the Company has elected to account for all derivatives with counterparty institutions on a gross basis. The Company manages the risk of default by its borrower counterparties through its normal loan underwriting and credit monitoring policies and procedures.

The table below presents gross derivatives and the respective collateral received or pledged in the form of other financial instruments as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, which are generally marketable securities and/or cash. The collateral amounts in the table below are limited to the outstanding balances of the related asset or liability (after netting is applied); thus instances of over-collateralization are not shown. Further, the net amounts of derivative assets or liabilities can be reconciled to the tabular disclosure of fair value. The tabular disclosure of fair value provides the location that derivative assets and liabilities are presented on the consolidated balance sheets.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company has an unsecured federal funds line with its institutional derivative counterparty. The Company has an agreement with its institutional derivative counterparty that contains a provision under which if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. The Company also has an agreement with its derivative counterparty that contains a provision under which the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on the indebtedness.

The trust preferred securities are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the junior subordinated notes at the stated maturity date or upon redemption of the junior subordinated notes. Each trust’s ability to pay amounts due on the trust preferred securities is solely dependent upon the Company making payment on the related junior subordinated notes. The Company’s obligation under the junior subordinated notes and other relevant trust agreements, in aggregate, constitutes a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of each trust’s obligations under the trust preferred securities issued by each trust. The Company has the right to defer payment of interest on the junior subordinated notes and, therefore, distributions on the trust preferred securities, for up to five years, but not beyond the stated maturity date in the table above. During any such deferral period the Company may not pay cash dividends on its stock and generally may not repurchase its stock.

Subordinated Debentures

On July 28, 2020, the Company completed the private placement offering of $65.0 million of its subordinated notes, of which $63.75 million have been exchanged for subordinated notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The 5.75% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes are due July 30, 2030. At March 31, 2023, 100% of the subordinated notes qualified as Tier 2 capital. Per applicable Federal Reserve rules and regulations, the amount of the subordinated notes qualifying as Tier 2 regulatory capital will be phased-out by 20% of the amount of the subordinated notes in each of the five years beginning on the fifth anniversary preceding the maturity date of the subordinated notes.

Other Long-Term Debt

As a member of the FHLBDM, the Bank may borrow funds from the FHLB in amounts up to 45% of the Bank’s total assets, provided the Bank is able to pledge an adequate amount of qualified assets to secure the borrowings. Advances from the FHLB are collateralized primarily by one- to four-family residential, commercial and agricultural real estate first mortgages equal to various percentages of the total outstanding notes. See Note 4. Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses of the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements. At March 31, 2023, FHLB long-term borrowings included advances

12. Regulatory Capital Requirements and Restrictions on Subsidiary Cash

Regulatory Capital and Reserve Requirement - The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. 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 Company's consolidated financial statements. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Bank was not required to maintain reserve balances in cash on hand or on deposit with Federal Reserve Banks, and therefore the total amount held in reserve for each of these periods was zero dollars.

Subordinated Notes - The Company completed a private placement of $65.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes on July 28, 2020. The subordinated notes are intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Credit-related financial instruments - The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commitments to sell loans, and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.

The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. The following table summarizes the Bank’s commitments as of the dates indicated:


	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
(in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit	$	1,205,902	$	1,190,607
Commitments to sell loans	2,553		612
Standby letters of credit	17,374		18,398
Total	$	1,225,829	$	1,209,617

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, crops, livestock, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties.

Table of Contents

Commitments to sell loans are agreements to sell loans held for sale to third parties at an agreed upon price.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and, generally, have terms of one year or less. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank holds collateral, which may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, equipment and income-producing properties, that support those commitments, if deemed necessary. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Bank would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Bank could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount shown in the summary above. If the commitment is funded, the Bank would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer.

Liability for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Losses - The Company records a liability for off-balance sheet credit losses through a charge to credit loss expense (or a reversal of credit loss expense) on the Company's consolidated statements of income and other liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the liability for off-balance-sheet credit losses totaled $4.8 million. For the three-months ended March 31, 2023, no credit loss expense was recorded, while a credit loss expense of $0.3 million was recorded for the three-months ended March 31, 2022.

Litigation - In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries have been named, from time to time, as defendants in various legal actions. Certain of the actual or threatened legal actions may include claims for substantial compensatory and/or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages. Management, after consulting with legal counsel, is of the opinion that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from these pending or threatened actions and proceedings will not have a material effect on the financial statements of the Company.

Concentrations of credit risk - Substantially all of the Bank’s loans, commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit have been granted to customers in the Bank’s market areas. Although the loan portfolio of the Bank is diversified, approximately 63% of the loans are real estate loans, excluding farmland, and approximately 7% are agriculturally related. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in Note 4. Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses. Commitments to extend credit are primarily related to commercial loans and home equity loans. Standby letters of credit were granted primarily to commercial borrowers. Investments in securities issued by state and political subdivisions involve certain governmental entities within Iowa, California, and Minnesota. The carrying value of investment securities of Iowa, California and Minnesota political subdivisions totaled 14%, 12%, and 10%, respectively, as of March 31, 2023.

14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for 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 on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

•Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

•Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

For additional information regarding the valuation methodologies used to measure the Company's assets recorded at fair value, and for estimating fair value for financial instruments not recorded at fair value, see Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies and Note 20. Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023.

The Company uses fair value to measure certain assets and liabilities on a recurring basis, primarily available for sale debt securities, derivatives and mortgage servicing rights. For assets measured at the lower of cost or fair value, the fair value measurement criteria may or may not be met during a reporting period, and such measurements are therefore considered "nonrecurring" for purposes of disclosing the Company's fair value measurements. Fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to adjust carrying values for collateral dependent individually analyzed loans and other real estate owned.

We and our representatives may, from time to time, make written or oral statements that are “forward-looking” and provide information other than historical information. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from any results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. These factors include, among other things, the factors listed below. Forward-looking statements, which may be based upon beliefs, expectations and assumptions of our management and on information currently available to management, are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “plans,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “may” or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements.

Additionally, we undertake no obligation to update any statement in light of new information or future events, except as required under federal securities law.

Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors that could have an impact on our ability to achieve operating results, growth plan goals and future prospects include, but are not limited to, the following:

•the risks of mergers (including with IOFB), including, without limitation, the related time and costs of implementing such transactions, integrating operations as part of these transactions and possible failures to achieve expected gains, revenue growth and/or expense savings from such transactions;

•credit quality deterioration or pronounced and sustained reduction in real estate market values, or uncertainties, including the impact of inflationary pressures on economic conditions and our business, resulting in an increase in the allowance for credit losses, an increase in the credit loss expense, and a reduction in net earnings;

•the effects of actual and expected increases in inflation and interest rates, including on our net income and the value of our securities portfolio;

•changes in the economic environment, competition, or other factors that may affect our ability to acquire loans or influence the anticipated growth rate of loans and deposits and the quality of the loan portfolio and loan and deposit pricing;

•fluctuations in the value of our investment securities;

•governmental monetary and fiscal policies;

•changes in and uncertainty related to benchmark interest rates used to price loans and deposits, including the expected elimination of LIBOR, and the adoption of a substitute;

•legislative and regulatory changes, including changes in banking, securities, trade, and tax laws and regulations and their application by our regulators, including the new 1.0% excise tax on stock buybacks by publicly traded companies and any changes in response to the recent failures of other banks;

•the ability to attract and retain key executives and employees experienced in banking and financial services;

•the sufficiency of the allowance for credit losses to absorb the amount of actual losses inherent in our existing loan portfolio;

•our ability to adapt successfully to technological changes to compete effectively in the marketplace;

•credit risks and risks from concentrations (by geographic area and by industry) within our loan portfolio;

•the effects of competition from other commercial banks, thrifts, mortgage banking firms, consumer finance companies, credit unions, securities brokerage firms, insurance companies, money market and other mutual funds, financial technology companies, and other financial institutions operating in our markets or elsewhere or providing similar services;

•the failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of allowances for credit losses and estimation of values of collateral and various financial assets and liabilities;

•volatility of rate-sensitive deposits;

•operational risks, including data processing system failures or fraud;

•asset/liability matching risks and liquidity risks;

•the costs, effects and outcomes of existing or future litigation;

•changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions, nationally, internationally or in the communities in which we conduct business;

•changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by state and federal regulatory agencies and the FASB;

•war or terrorist activities, including the war in Ukraine, widespread disease or pandemic, or other adverse external events, which may cause deterioration in the economy or cause instability in credit markets;

•the effects of cyber-attacks;

•the imposition of tariffs or other domestic or international governmental policies impacting the value of the agricultural or other products of our borrowers;

•effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including its effects on the economic environment, our customers, employees and supply chain;

•the concentration of large deposits from certain clients who have balances above current FDIC insurance limits and may withdraw deposits to diversify their exposure;

•the effects of recent developments and events in the financial services industry, including the large-scale deposit withdrawals over a short period of time at other banks that resulted in failure of those institutions; and

•factors and risks described under “Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q and in other reports we file with the SEC.

We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by the foregoing cautionary statements. Because of these risks and other uncertainties, our actual future results, performance or achievement, or industry results, may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. In addition, our past results of operations are not necessarily indicative of our future results.

OVERVIEW

The Company provides financial services to individuals, businesses, governmental units and institutional customers located primarily in the upper Midwest through its bank subsidiary, MidWestOne Bank. The Bank has locations throughout central and eastern Iowa, the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area of Minnesota, southwestern Wisconsin, Naples and Fort Myers, Florida, and Denver, Colorado.

On June 9, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of IOFB, a bank holding company headquartered in Muscatine, Iowa, and the parent company of FNBM and FNBF. Immediately following the completion of the acquisition, FNBM and FNBF were merged with and into the Bank. As consideration for the merger, we paid cash of $46.7 million. The acquisition added to the Company's existing presence in Fairfield, Iowa and expanded the Company's footprint into Muscatine, Iowa.

The Bank is focused on delivering relationship-based business and personal banking products and services. The Bank provides commercial loans, real estate loans, agricultural loans, credit card loans, and consumer loans. The Bank also provides deposit products including demand and interest checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, and time deposits. Complementary to our loan and deposit products, the Bank also provides products and services including treasury management, Zelle, online and mobile banking, credit and debit cards, ATMs, and safe deposit boxes. The Bank also has a trust department through which it offers services including the administration of estates, personal trusts, and conservatorships and the management of real property. Finally, the Bank’s investment services department offers financial planning, investment advisory, and retail securities brokerage services (the latter of which is provided through an agreement with a third-party registered broker-dealer).

Our results of operations are significantly affected by our net interest income. Results of operations are also affected by noninterest income and expense, credit loss expense and income tax expense. Significant external factors that impact our results of operations include general economic and competitive conditions, as well as changes in market interest rates, government policies, and actions of regulatory authorities.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes and the statistical information and financial data appearing in this report as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023. Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results to be attained for any other period.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY

The Company reported net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 of $1.4 million, a decrease of $12.5 million, compared to $13.9 million of net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022, with diluted earnings per share of $0.09 and $0.88 for the respective annual periods.

The period as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was also highlighted by the following results:

Balance Sheet:

•Total assets decreased to $6.41 billion at March 31, 2023 from $6.58 billion at December 31, 2022, primarily as a result of the sale of $231 million in book value of available for sale debt securities in the first quarter of 2023.

•At March 31, 2023 the total amount of the held to maturity debt securities was $1.12 billion and the total amount of the debt securities available for sale was $954.1 million. There were $1.13 billion held to maturity debt securities at December 31, 2022, while the total amount of the debt securities available for sale was $1.15 billion.

•Gross loans held for investment increased $78.1 million, from $3.85 billion at December 31, 2022, to $3.93 billion at March 31, 2023. This increase was primarily driven by new loan production, draws on construction loans, and higher line of credit usage during the first quarter of 2023.

•The allowance for credit losses was $49.8 million, or 1.27% of total loans as of March 31, 2023, compared with $49.2 million, or 1.28% of total loans, at December 31, 2022.

•Nonperforming assets declined $1.5 million, from $15.9 million at December 31, 2022, to $14.4 million at March 31, 2023.

•Total deposits increased $86.2 million from $5.47 billion at December 31, 2022, to $5.56 billion at March 31, 2023, which is primarily reflective of the increase in brokered deposits.

•Short-term borrowings declined to $144.0 million at March 31, 2023, from $391.9 million at December 31, 2022, and long-term debt decreased to $138.0 million at March 31, 2023 from $139.2 million at December 31, 2022.

•The Company is well-capitalized with a total risk-based capital ratio of 12.31% at March 31, 2023.

Table of Contents

Income Statement:

•Tax equivalent net interest income (a non-GAAP financial measure - see the "Non-GAAP Presentations" section for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP equivalent) was $41.3 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $2.8 million, from $38.5 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase in tax equivalent net interest income was due primarily to an increase of $15.3 million in loan interest income and an increase of $2.0 million in interest income earned from investment securities. The increase in loan interest income was reflective of higher loan volume from the IOFB acquisition and organic loan growth, coupled with an increase in loan yield, while the increase in interest income earned from investment securities stemmed from the higher yield on such securities. Partially offsetting these identified increases in tax equivalent interest income were increases in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits and borrowed funds of $12.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively.

•Credit loss expense of $0.9 million was recorded during the first quarter of 2023, with no credit loss expense recorded in the first quarter of 2022. Credit loss expense in the current quarter was primarily attributable to loan growth.

•Noninterest income decreased $15.7 million, from $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2022 to a loss of $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to investment security losses of $13.2 million related to the Company's balance sheet repositioning.

•Noninterest expense increased $1.7 million, from $31.6 million in the first quarter of 2022, to $33.3 million in the first quarter of 2023, due primarily to increases of $0.9 million and $0.5 million in compensation and employee benefits and amortization of intangibles, respectively. These increases primarily reflected costs associated with the acquired operations of IOFB, which closed in the second quarter of 2022.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management has identified the accounting policies related to the ACL, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, and the annual impairment testing of goodwill and other intangible assets to be critical accounting policies. Information about our critical accounting estimates is included under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023, and there have been no material changes in these critical accounting policies since December 31, 2022.

(1) Tax equivalent, using a federal statutory tax rate of 21%.

Our tax equivalent net interest income for the first quarter of 2023 was $41.3 million, an increase of $2.8 million, or 7.3%, as compared to $38.5 million for the first quarter of 2022. The increase in tax equivalent net interest income in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to the first quarter of 2022 was due primarily to an increase of $17.5 million, or 40.8%, in interest income, which more than offset the increase of $14.7 million, or 325.8%, in interest expense. The change in interest income reflected an increase of $15.3 million, or 48.2%, in loan interest income, which reflected higher loan volume from the IOFB acquisition and organic loan growth, and an increase in loan yield. The change in interest income also reflected an increase of $2.0 million, or 17.7%, in interest income earned from investment securities, which stemmed from the higher yield on such securities. The change in interest expense reflected increases in interest paid on interest bearing deposits and borrowed funds of $12.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively, due to higher costs and volumes.

The tax equivalent net interest margin for the first quarter of 2023 declined to 2.75%, from 2.79% for the first quarter of 2022, driven by higher funding costs, partially offset by higher interest earning asset yields. The cost of interest bearing liabilities increased 117 bps to 1.59%, due to interest bearing deposit costs of 1.38%, short-term borrowing costs of 2.82%, and long-term debt costs of 6.19%, which increased 109 bps, 252 bps and 189 bps, respectively from the first quarter of 2022. Total interest earning assets yield increased 90 bps primarily as a result of an increase in loan and securities yields of 97 bps and 43 bps, respectively.

Credit Loss Expense

Credit loss expense of $0.9 million was recorded during the first quarter of 2023, with no credit loss expense recorded in the first quarter of 2022. The increase in credit loss expense was primarily attributable to loan growth. Net loan charge-offs were $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to net loan charge-offs of $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. The economic forecast factors utilized by the Company for its loan credit loss estimation process are: (1) Midwest unemployment – increases over the next four forecasted quarters; (2) Year-to-year change in national retail sales - increases over the next four forecasted quarters; (3) Year-to-year change in CRE Index - increase in the first forecasted quarter and declines in the second through fourth forecasted quarters; (4) Year-to-year change in U.S. GDP - increases over the next four forecasted quarters; (5) Year-to-year change in National Home Price Index – declines over the next four forecasted quarters; and (6) Rental Vacancy - increases over the next four forecasted quarters. In addition, management utilized qualitative factors to adjust the calculated ACL as appropriate. Qualitative factors are based on management’s judgment of company, market, industry or business specific data, changes in underlying loan composition of specific portfolios, trends relating to credit quality, delinquency, non-performing and adversely rated loans, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions.

Total noninterest income for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $15.7 million, or 134.7%, to a loss of $4.0 million from $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to investment security losses of $13.2 million related to the Company's balance sheet repositioning. In addition, noninterest income declined from the comparative period due to the first quarter of 2022 benefiting from a larger increase in the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights, as well as a larger gain on sale from residential mortgage loans as a result of higher mortgage origination volumes.

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2023 increased $1.7 million, or 5.3%, to $33.3 million from $31.6 million for the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to increases of $0.9 million and $0.5 million in compensation and employee benefits and amortization of intangibles, respectively. These increases primarily reflected costs associated with the acquired operations of IOFB, which closed in the second quarter of 2022. Partially offsetting the increases above was a decline of $0.6 million in legal and professional expenses stemming primarily from reductions in legal expenses related to litigation and executive recruitment.

On January 1, 2022, the Company re-classified, at fair value, from available for sale to held to maturity, $1.25 billion of mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and securities issued by state and political subdivisions. The net unrealized after tax loss of $11.5 million associated with those re-classified securities remained in accumulated other comprehensive loss and will be amortized over the remaining life of the securities. No gains or losses were recognized in earnings at the time of the transfer.

As of March 31, 2023, there were $0.1 million of gross unrealized gains and $95.4 million of gross unrealized losses in our debt securities available for sale portfolio for a net unrealized loss of $95.3 million. As of March 31, 2023 there were no gross unrealized gains and $179.2 million of gross unrealized losses in our held to maturity debt securities.

During the first quarter of 2023, the Company undertook a balance sheet repositioning related to its debt securities portfolio. Specifically, the Company executed the sale of $231 million in book value of its AFS debt securities, with a pre-tax loss of $13.2 million and $220 million of proceeds that were used to pay off short-term borrowings and reinvest in higher yielding, floating rate securities.

Loans held for investment, net of unearned income at March 31, 2023, increased $78.8 million, or 2.1%, from December 31, 2022 to $3.92 billion, driven primarily by new loan production, draws on construction loans, and higher line of credit usage during the first quarter of 2023. See Note 4. Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses to our consolidated financial statements for additional information related to our loan portfolio.

Commitments under standby letters of credit, unused lines of credit and other conditionally approved credit lines totaled approximately $1.22 billion and $1.21 billion as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Our loan to deposit ratio increased to 70.55% as of March 31, 2023 as compared to 70.22% as of December 31, 2022. The loan to deposit ratio increased when compared to the prior year-end due to new loan production, draws on construction loans and higher line of credit usage, which offset the increase in total deposits.

Nonperforming Assets

(3) Nonperforming assets ratio is calculated as total nonperforming assets divided by total assets at the end of the period.

When compared to December 31, 2022, overall asset quality improved. The nonperforming loans ratio declined 4 basis points from the prior year-end to 0.37%, while the nonperforming assets ratio declined 1 basis points from the prior year-end to 0.23%.

Loan Review and Classification Process for Agricultural, Commercial and Industrial, and Commercial Real Estate Loans:

The Bank maintains a loan review and classification process which involves multiple officers of the Bank and is designed to assess the general quality of credit underwriting and to promote early identification of potential problem loans. All commercial and agricultural loan officers are charged with the responsibility of risk rating all loans in their portfolios and updating the ratings, positively or negatively, on an ongoing basis as conditions warrant. Risk ratings are selected from an 8-point scale with ratings as follows: ratings 1- 4 Satisfactory (pass), rating 5 Watch (potential weakness), rating 6 Substandard (well-defined weakness), rating 7 Doubtful, and rating 8 Loss.

When a loan officer originates a new loan, based upon proper loan authorization, they document the credit file with an offering sheet summary, supplemental underwriting analysis, relevant financial information and collateral evaluations. Segregation of

Table of Contents

owner-occupied and non-owner occupied residential real estate loans is made at the time of origination. This information is used in the determination of the initial loan risk rating. The Bank’s loan review department undertakes independent credit reviews of relationships based on either criteria established by loan policy, risk-focused sampling, or random sampling. Credit relationships with larger exposure may pose incrementally higher risks. As a result, the Bank's loan review department is required to review all credit relationships with total exposure of $5.0 million or more at least annually. In addition, the individual loan reviews consider such items as: loan type; nature, type and estimated value of collateral; borrower and/or guarantor estimated financial strength; most recently available financial information; related loans and total borrower exposure; and current and anticipated performance of the loan. The results of such reviews are presented to both executive management and the audit committee of the Company's board of directors.

Through the review of delinquency reports, updated financial statements or other relevant information, the lending officer and/or loan review personnel may determine that a loan relationship has weakened to the point that a Watch (risk rating 5) or Classified (risk ratings 6 through 8) status is warranted. At least quarterly, the loan strategy committee will meet to discuss loan relationships with total exposure of $1.0 million or above that are Watch rated credits, loan relationships with total exposure of $500 thousand and above that are Substandard or Worse rated credits, as well as loan relationships with total exposure of $250 thousand and above that are on non-accrual. Loan relationships outside these designated thresholds are reviewed upon request. The lending officer is charged with preparing a loan strategy summary worksheet that outlines the background of the credit problem, current repayment status of the loans, current collateral evaluation and a workout plan of action. This plan may include goals to improve the credit rating, assist the borrower in moving the loans to another institution and/or collateral liquidation. All such reports are presented to the loan strategy committee. The minutes of the loan strategy committee meetings are provided to the board of directors of the Bank.

Depending upon the individual facts and circumstances and the result of the classified/watch review process, loan officers and/or loan review personnel may categorize a loan relationship as requiring an individual analysis. Once that determination has occurred, the credit analyst will complete an individually analyzed worksheet that contains an evaluation of the collateral (for collateral-dependent loans) based upon the estimated collateral value, adjusting for current market conditions and other local factors that may affect collateral value. Loan review personnel may also complete an independent individual analysis when deemed necessary. These judgmental evaluations may produce an initial specific allowance for recognition in the Company’s allowance for credit losses calculation. An analysis for the underlying collateral value of each individually analyzed loan relationship is completed in the last month of the quarter. The individually analyzed worksheets are reviewed by the Credit Administration department prior to quarter-end. The board of directors of the Bank on a quarterly basis reviews the classified/watch reports including changes in credit grades of 5 or higher as well as all individually analyzed loans, the related allowances and foreclosed assets, net.

The review process also provides for the upgrade of loans that show improvement since the last review. All requests for an upgrade of a credit are approved by the proper authority based upon the aggregate credit exposure before the rating can be changed.

Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

Infrequently, the Company makes modification to certain loans in order to alleviate temporary difficulties in the borrower's financial condition and/or constraints on the borrower's ability to repay a loan, and to minimize potential losses to the Company. GAAP requires that certain types of modifications be reported, including:

•Principal forgiveness.

•Interest rate reduction.

•An other than-insignificant payment delay.

•Term extension.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the amortized cost of the loans that were modified to borrowers in financial distress was $2.0 million, which represented 0.05% of total loans held for investment, net of unearned income.

(1) Net (charge-off) recovery ratio is calculated as the annualized net (charge-offs) recoveries divided by average loans held for investment, net of unearned income and average loans held for sale, during the period.

Actual Results: Our ACL as of March 31, 2023 was $49.8 million, which was 1.27% of loans held for investment, net of unearned income as of that date. This compares with an ACL of $49.2 million as of December 31, 2022, which was 1.28% of loans held for investment, net of unearned income. The increase in the ACL primarily reflected an additional reserve taken to support loan growth. The liability for off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled $4.8 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and is included in 'Other liabilities' on the balance sheet.

The Company recorded a credit loss expense related to loans of $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to a credit loss benefit related to loans of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Gross charge-offs for the first three months of 2023 totaled $0.5 million, while there were $0.2 million in gross recoveries of previously charged-off loans. The ratio of annualized net charge-offs to average loans for the first three months of 2023 was 0.03% compared to 0.28% for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Economic Forecast: At March 31, 2023, the economic forecast used by the Company showed the following: (1) Midwest unemployment – increases over the next four forecasted quarters; (2) Year-to-year change in national retail sales - increases over the next four forecasted quarters; (3) Year-to-year change in CRE Index - increase in the first forecasted quarter and declines in the second through fourth forecasted quarters; (4) Year-to-year change in U.S. GDP - increases over the next four

Table of Contents

forecasted quarters; (5) Year-to-year change in National Home Price Index – declines over the next four forecasted quarters; and (6) Rental Vacancy - increases over the next four forecasted quarters. In addition, management utilized qualitative factors to adjust the calculated ACL as appropriate. Qualitative factors are based on management’s judgment of company, market, industry or business specific data, changes in underlying loan composition of specific portfolios, trends relating to credit quality, delinquency, non-performing and adversely rated loans, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions.

Loan Policy: We review all nonaccrual loans greater than $250,000 individually on a quarterly basis to measure any amount to be recognized in the Company's allowance for credit losses by analyzing the borrower's ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies, and other relevant factors. In addition, PCD loans greater than $250,000 are evaluated individually to determine the required ACL. Loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty performing in accordance with their modified contractual terms for a reasonable period of time may be included in the Company’s existing pools based on the underlying risk characteristics of the loan to measure the ACL. Upon the Company's determination that a modified loan (or a portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is written off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the allowance for credit losses is adjusted by the same amount. We review loans 90 days or more past due that are still accruing interest no less than quarterly to determine if the asset is both well secured and in the process of collection. If not, such loans are placed on non-accrual status.

Based on the inherent risk in the loan portfolio, management believed that as of March 31, 2023, the ACL was adequate; however, there is no assurance losses will not exceed the ACL. In addition, growth in the loan portfolio or general economic deterioration may require the recognition of additional credit loss expense in future periods. See Note 4. Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information related to the allowance for credit losses.

Deposits increased $86.2 million from December 31, 2022, or 1.6%. Brokered deposits as of March 31, 2023 totaled $366.5 million, compared with $126.8 million as of December 31, 2022. Approximately 84.0% of our total deposits were considered “core” deposits as of March 31, 2023, compared to 88.5% at December 31, 2022. We consider core deposits to be the total of all deposits other than time deposits greater than $250k and non-reciprocal brokered deposits. Deposit inflows and outflows are influenced by prevailing market interest rates, competition, local and national economic conditions, and fluctuations in our business customers own liquidity needs and may also be influenced by recent developments in the financial services industry. See Note 8. Deposits to our consolidated financial statements for additional information related to our deposits.

(1)A non-GAAP financial measure - see the “Non-GAAP Presentations” section for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP equivalent.

Shareholders' Equity: Total shareholders’ equity was $500.7 million as of March 31, 2023, compared to $492.8 million as of December 31, 2022, an increase of $7.9 million, or 1.6%, primarily due to a decrease in AOCI due to a decrease in the unrealized loss on available for sale debt securities, which was partially offset by a decrease in retained earnings.

Capital Adequacy: Risk-based capital guidelines require the classification of assets and some off-balance-sheet items in terms of credit-risk exposure and the measuring of capital as a percentage of the risk-adjusted asset totals. Management believed that, as of March 31, 2023, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which we were subject. As of that date, the Bank was “well capitalized” under regulatory prompt corrective action provisions. See Note 12. Regulatory Capital Requirements and Restrictions on Subsidiary Cash to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information related to our capital.

Stock Compensation

Restricted stock units were granted to certain officers and directors of the Company on February 15, 2023, in the aggregate amount of 80,745. Additionally, during the first three months of 2023, 68,962 shares of common stock were issued in connection with the vesting of previously awarded grants of restricted stock units, of which 17,614 shares were surrendered by grantees to satisfy tax requirements, and 446 unvested restricted stock units were forfeited.

Liquidity

Liquidity management involves meeting the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers. We conduct liquidity management on both a daily and long-term basis, and adjust our investments in liquid assets based on expected loan demand, projected loan maturities and payments, expected deposit flows, yields available on interest-bearing deposits, and the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Excess liquidity is invested generally in short-term U.S. government and agency

Table of Contents

securities, short- and medium-term state and political subdivision securities, and other investment securities. Our most liquid assets are cash and due from banks, interest-bearing bank deposits, and federal funds sold. The balances of these assets are dependent on our operating, investing, and financing activities during any given period.

Cash and cash equivalents are summarized in the table below. Since December 31, 2022, interest-bearing deposits have been used to fund loan growth.


(dollars in thousands)	As of March 31, 2023		As of December 31, 2022
Cash and due from banks	$	63,945	$	83,990
Interest-bearing deposits	5,273		2,445

Total	$	69,218	$	86,435

Generally, our principal sources of funds are deposits, advances from the FHLB, principal repayments on loans, proceeds from the sale of loans, proceeds from the maturity and sale of investment securities, our federal funds lines, and funds provided by operations. While scheduled loan amortization and maturing interest-bearing deposits are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by economic conditions, the general level of interest rates, and competition. We utilized particular sources of funds based on comparative costs and availability. The Bank maintains unsecured lines of credit with several correspondent banks and secured lines with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and the FHLB that would allow us to borrow funds on a short-term basis, if necessary. We also hold debt securities classified as available for sale that could be sold to meet liquidity needs if necessary.

Net cash provided by operations was another major source of liquidity. The net cash provided by operating activities was $17.6 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2023 and $26.2 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2022.

Inflation

The effects of price changes and inflation can vary substantially for most financial institutions. While management believes that inflation affects the growth of total assets, it is difficult to assess its overall impact on the Company. The price of one or more of the components of the Consumer Price Index may fluctuate considerably and thereby influence the overall Consumer Price Index without having a corresponding effect on interest rates or upon the cost of those goods and services normally purchased by us. Inflation and related increases in market rates by the Federal Reserve generally decrease the market value of investments and loans held and may adversely affect liquidity, earnings and shareholders' equity. Ongoing higher inflation levels and higher interest rates could have a negative impact on both our consumer and commercial borrowers. We anticipate our noninterest income may be adversely affected in future periods as a result of increasing interest rates and inflationary pressure, which has begun to and will continue to adversely affect mortgage originations and mortgage banking revenue. Additionally, the economic impact of the recent rise in inflation and rising interest rates could place increased demand on our liquidity if we experience significant credit deterioration and as we meet borrowers' needs. There is also a risk that interest rate increases to fight inflation could lead to a recession.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

During the normal course of business, we are a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in order to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commitments to sell loans, and standby letters of credit. We follow the same credit policy (including requiring collateral, if deemed appropriate) to make such commitments as is followed for those loans that are recorded in our financial statements.

Our exposure to credit losses in the event of nonperformance is represented by the contractual amount of the commitments. Management does not expect any significant losses as a result of these commitments, and also expects to have sufficient liquidity available to cover these off-balance-sheet instruments. Off-balance-sheet transactions are more fully discussed in Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes to the Company's contractual obligations existing at December 31, 2022, as disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain ratios and amounts not in conformity with GAAP are provided to evaluate and measure the Company’s operating performance and financial condition, including return on average tangible equity, tangible common equity, tangible book value per share, tangible common equity ratio, efficiency ratio, net interest margin (tax equivalent), and core net interest margin.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

In general, market risk is the risk of change in asset values due to movements in underlying market rates and prices. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and capital arising from movements in interest rates. Interest rate risk is the most significant market risk affecting us as other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of our business activities.

In addition to interest rate risk, economic conditions in recent years have made liquidity risk (namely, funding liquidity risk) a more prevalent concern among financial institutions. In general, liquidity risk is the risk of being unable to fund an entity’s obligations to creditors (including, in the case of banks, obligations to depositors) as such obligations become due and/or fund its acquisition of assets.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity refers to our ability to fund operations, to meet depositor withdrawals, to provide for our customers’ credit needs, and to meet maturing obligations and existing commitments. Our liquidity principally depends on cash flows from operating activities, investment in and maturity of assets, changes in balances of deposits and borrowings, and our ability to borrow funds.

Net cash inflows from operating activities were $17.6 million in the first three months of 2023, compared with $26.2 million in the first three months of 2022. Net cash inflows from investing activities were $132.5 million in the first three months of 2023, compared to net cash outflows of $113.8 million in the comparable three-month period of 2022. Net cash outflows from financing activities in the first three months of 2023 were $167.4 million, compared with net cash outflows of $56.4 million for the same period of 2022.

To manage liquidity risk, the Bank has several sources of liquidity in place to maximize funding availability and increase the diversification of funding sources. The criteria for evaluating the use of these sources include volume concentration (percentage of liabilities), cost, volatility, and the fit with the current asset/liability management plan. These acceptable sources of liquidity include:

•Federal Funds Lines

•Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window/Bank Term Funding Program

•Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

•Brokered Deposits

•Brokered Repurchase Agreements

Federal Funds Lines - Routine liquidity requirements are met by fluctuations in the federal funds position of the Bank. The principal function of these funds is to maintain short-term liquidity. Unsecured federal funds purchased lines are viewed as a volatile liability and are not used as a long-term funding solution, especially when used to fund long-term assets. The current federal funds purchased limit is 10% of total assets, or the amount of established federal funds lines, whichever is smaller. As of March 31, 2023, the Bank maintains several unsecured federal funds lines totaling $155.0 million, which lines are tested annually to ensure availability.

Table of Contents

Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window and Bank Term Funding Program - The Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window and the Bank Term Funding Program are additional sources of liquidity, particularly during periods of economic uncertainty or stress. The Bank has a borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago limited by the amount of municipal securities pledged against the line. As of March 31, 2023, the Bank had municipal securities with an approximate market value of $494.1 million pledged for liquidity purposes, and had a borrowing capacity of $509.7 million. There were no outstanding borrowings through the FRB Discount Window, nor the Bank Term Funding Program at March 31, 2023.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances - FHLB advances provide both a source of liquidity and long-term funding for the Bank. Advances from the FHLBDM are collateralized primarily by one- to four-family residential, commercial and agricultural real estate first mortgages equal to various percentages of the total outstanding notes. The current FHLB borrowing limit is 45% of total assets. As of March 31, 2023, the Bank had $6.5 million of short-term FHLB advances and $17.3 million in long-term FHLB borrowings, leaving $777.2 million available for liquidity needs, based on collateral capacity.

Brokered Deposits and Reciprocal Deposits - The Bank has brokered time deposit and non-maturity deposit relationships available to diversify its funding sources. Brokered deposits offer several benefits relative to other funding sources, such as: maturity structures which cannot be duplicated in the current retail market, deposit gathering which does not cannibalize the existing deposit base, the unsecured nature of these liabilities, and the ability to quickly generate funds. The Bank’s internal policy limits the use of brokered deposits as a funding source to no more than 10% of total assets. Board approval is required to exceed this limit. The Bank will also have to maintain a “well capitalized” standing to access brokered deposits, as an “adequately capitalized” rating would require an FDIC waiver to do so, and an “undercapitalized” rating would prohibit it from using brokered deposits altogether. The Company had $366.5 million as of March 31, 2023 and $126.8 million as of December 31, 2022 of brokered deposits.

Under a final rule that was issued by the FDIC in December 2018, financial institutions that are considered "well capitalized" qualify for the exemption of certain reciprocal deposits from being considered brokered deposits. Such exemption is limited to the lesser of 20 percent of total liabilities or $5 billion, with some exceptions for financial institutions that do not meet such criteria. At March 31, 2023, the Company had $6.0 million of reciprocal time deposits and $39.3 million of reciprocal non-maturity deposits that qualified for the brokered deposit exemption. These reciprocal deposits are part of the IntraFi Network Deposits program, which is used by financial institutions to spread deposits that exceed the FDIC insurance coverage limits out to numerous institutions in order to provide insurance coverage for all participating deposits.

Brokered Repurchase Agreements - Brokered repurchase agreements may be established with approved brokerage firms and banks. Repurchase agreements create rollover risk (the risk that a broker will discontinue the relationship due to market factors) and are not used as a long-term funding solution, especially when used to fund long-term assets. Collateral requirements and availability are evaluated and monitored. The current policy limit for brokered repurchase agreements is 10% of total assets. There were no outstanding brokered repurchase agreements at March 31, 2023.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is defined as the exposure of net interest income and fair value of financial instruments (interest-earning assets, deposits and borrowings) to movements in interest rates. The Company’s results of operations depend to a large degree on its net interest income and its ability to manage interest rate risk. The Company considers interest rate risk to be a significant market risk. The major sources of the Company’s interest rate risk are timing differences in the maturity and re-pricing characteristics of assets and liabilities, changes in the shape of the yield curve, changes in customer behavior and changes in relationships between rate indices (basis risk). Management measures these risks and their impact in various ways, including through the use of income simulation and valuation analyses. Multiple interest rate scenarios are used in this analysis which include changes in interest rates, spread narrowing and widening, yield curve twists and changes in assumptions about customer behavior in various interest rate scenarios. A mismatch between maturities, interest rate sensitivities and prepayment characteristics of assets and liabilities results in interest-rate risk. Like most financial institutions, we have material interest-rate risk exposure to changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates, as well as variable interest rate indices (e.g., the prime rate, LIBOR, or SOFR).

The Bank’s asset and liability committee meets regularly and is responsible for reviewing its interest rate sensitivity position and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. Our asset and liability committee seeks to manage interest rate risk under a variety of rate environments by structuring our balance sheet and off-balance-sheet positions in such a way that changes in interest rates do not have a large negative impact. The risk is monitored and managed within approved policy limits.

We use a third-party service to model and measure our exposure to potential interest rate changes. For various assumed hypothetical changes in market interest rates, numerous other assumptions are made, such as prepayment speeds on loans and

Table of Contents

securities backed by mortgages, the slope of the Treasury yield-curve, the rates and volumes of our deposits, and the rates and volumes of our loans. There are two primary tools used to evaluate interest rate risk: net interest income simulation and economic value of equity ("EVE"). In addition, interest rate gap is reviewed to monitor asset and liability repricing over various time periods.

Net Interest Income Simulation - Management utilizes net interest income simulation models to estimate the near-term effects of changing interest rates on its net interest income. Net interest income simulation involves projecting net interest income under a variety of scenarios, which include varying the level of interest rates and shifts in the shape of the yield curve. Management exercises its best judgment in making assumptions regarding events that management can influence, such as non-contractual deposit re-pricings, and events outside management’s control, such as customer behavior on loan and deposit activity and the effect that competition has on both loan and deposit pricing. These assumptions are subjective and, as a result, net interest income simulation results will differ from actual results due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes, changes in market conditions, customer behavior and management strategies, among other factors. We perform various sensitivity analyses on assumptions of deposit attrition and deposit re-pricing.

The following table presents the anticipated effect on net interest income over a twelve month period if short- and long-term interest rates were to sustain an immediate decrease of 100 basis points or 200 basis points, or an immediate increase of 100 basis points or 200 basis points:


	Immediate Change in Rates
(dollars in thousands)	-200			-100			+100			+200
March 31, 2023
Dollar change	$	6,426		$	4,191		$	(5,520)		$	(11,286)
Percent change	3.8		%	2.5		%	(3.3)		%	(6.7)		%
December 31, 2022
Dollar change	$	8,398		$	5,637		$	(6,738)		$	(13,921)
Percent change	5.2		%	3.5		%	(4.2)		%	(8.7)		%

As of March 31, 2023, 28.6% of the Company’s earning asset balances will reprice or are expected to pay down in the next twelve months, and 44.4% of the Company’s deposit balances are low cost or no cost deposits.

Economic Value of Equity - Management also uses EVE to measure risk in the balance sheet that might not be taken into account in the net interest income simulation analysis. Net interest income simulation highlights exposure over a relatively short time period, while EVE analysis incorporates all cash flows over the estimated remaining life of all balance sheet positions. The valuation of the balance sheet, at a point in time, is defined as the discounted present value of asset cash flows minus the discounted present value of liability cash flows. EVE analysis addresses only the current balance sheet and does not incorporate the run-off replacement assumptions that are used in the net interest income simulation model. As with the net interest income simulation model, EVE analysis is based on key assumptions about the timing and variability of balance sheet cash flows and does not take into account any potential responses by management to anticipated changes in interest rates.

Interest Rate Gap - The interest rate gap is the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities re-pricing within a given period and represents the net asset or liability sensitivity at a point in time. An interest rate gap measure could be significantly affected by external factors such as loan prepayments, early withdrawals of deposits, changes in the correlation of various interest-bearing instruments, competition, or a rise or decline in interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, and the Chief Accounting Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, and the Chief Accounting Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, and the Chief Accounting Officer, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023.

Table of Contents

The effectiveness of our or any system of disclosure controls and procedures is subject to certain limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, and evaluating the controls and procedures, the assumptions used in identifying the likelihood of future events, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. As a result, there can be no assurance that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors or fraud or ensure that all material information will be made known to appropriate management in a timely fashion. By their nature, our or any system of disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
