EXPLANATORY NOTE
Introduction
In connection with the preparation of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, the Audit Committee (the "Audit Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Company, after discussion with management and the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, Crowe LLP, concluded that the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for each year in the three year period ended December 31, 2023, and its unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the interim periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, June 30, 2024 and 2023 and September 30, 2024 and 2023 (collectively, the "Restated Financial Periods") should no longer be relied upon because of errors identified in such financial statements, as described below.
The errors relate to the Company’s accounting for loans originated pursuant to third-party loan origination programs. These programs go back as far as 2012. As part of these programs, the third-party providers offered various credit enhancements with respect to loans originated under the programs, including contributions to reserve accounts, yield maintenance and certain other payments. Historically, the Company accounted for all borrower payments and credit enhancement payments under these programs on a single unit, or net basis, with all such payments presented as interest income representing the Company’s effective yield on the portfolios. The Company has determined that these payments should instead be accounted for on a separate unit of account, or gross basis, with loan yields and interest income recorded at the gross borrower loan rate, credit losses and associated provisions for credit losses recorded on a gross basis over the life of the loans, and with all credit enhancement payments recorded separately as a credit enhancement derivative.
As a result of the above, the Company is restating the consolidated financial statements (i) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and (ii) for the year ended December 31, 2022, as presented in the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

PART I
ITEM 1 – BUSINESS
Our Company
Midland States Bancorp, Inc., an Illinois corporation formed in 1988, is a diversified financial holding company headquartered in Effingham, Illinois. Our banking subsidiary, Midland States Bank, an Illinois state-chartered bank formed in 1881, has branches across Illinois and in Missouri, and provides a full range of commercial and consumer banking products and services, business equipment financing, merchant credit card services, trust and investment management, and insurance and financial planning services. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had total assets of $7.51 billion, and our wealth management group had assets under administration of approximately $4.15 billion.
Our strategic plan focuses on delivering a superior customer experience through a high-tech, high-touch approach, while remaining committed to core community banking and relationship-driven growth. We continue to enhance our regional franchise approach that serves our core customers with a consistent, high-performance culture rooted in our One Midland values and with a strong foundation in Enterprise Risk Management.
Our Principal Businesses
Community Banking. Our community banking business primarily consists of commercial and retail lending and deposit taking. We deliver a comprehensive range of banking products and services to individuals, businesses, municipalities and other entities within our market areas, which include Illinois and the St. Louis metropolitan area, where we operated 53 full-service banking offices as of December 31, 2024.
Our lending strategy is to maintain a broadly diversified loan portfolio based on the type of customer (i.e., businesses versus individuals), type of loan product (e.g., owner occupied commercial real estate, commercial loans, agricultural loans, etc.), geographic location and industries in which our business customers are engaged (e.g., manufacturing, retail, hospitality, etc.). We principally focus our commercial lending activities on loans that we originate from borrowers located in our market areas.
We market our lending products and services to qualified lending customers primarily through branch offices and high touch personal service. We focus our business development and marketing strategy primarily on middle market businesses. Our primary products and services include the following:
Commercial Loans. Our commercial loan portfolio is comprised primarily of term loans to purchase capital equipment and lines of credit for working capital and operational purposes to small and midsized businesses. Although most loans are made on a secured basis, loans may be made on an unsecured basis where warranted by the overall financial condition of the borrower. Part of our commercial loan portfolio includes loans extended to finance agricultural equipment and production.
These loans are typically short-term loans extended to farmers and other agricultural producers to purchase seed, fertilizer and equipment.
Commercial Real Estate Loans. We offer real estate loans for owner occupied and non-owner occupied commercial property. The real estate securing our existing commercial real estate loans includes a wide variety of property types, such as owner occupied offices, warehouses and production facilities, office buildings, hotels, mixed-use residential and commercial facilities, retail centers, multifamily properties and assisted living facilities. Our commercial real estate loan portfolio includes farmland loans. Farmland loans are generally made to a borrower actively involved in farming rather than to passive investors.
Construction and Land Development Loans. Our construction portfolio includes loans to small and midsized businesses to construct owner-user properties, loans to developers of commercial real estate investment properties and residential developments and, to a lesser extent, loans to individual clients for construction of single family homes in our market areas. These loans are typically disbursed as construction progresses and carry interest rates that may vary with SOFR.
The following table presents the balance and associated percentage of the major property types within our commercial real estate and construction and land development loan portfolios at December 31, 2024 and 2023:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Total commercial real estate and construction and land development loans | $ | 2,891,506 | | | 100.0 | % | | $ | 2,859,438 | | | 100.0 | % |
Residential Real Estate Loans. We offer first and second mortgage loans to our individual customers primarily for the purchase of primary residences. We also offer home equity lines of credit, consisting of loans secured by first or second mortgages primarily on owner occupied primary residences.
Consumer Installment Loans. We provide consumer installment loans for the purchase of cars, boats and other recreational vehicles, as well as for the purchase of major appliances and other home improvement projects. Our major appliance and other home improvement lending is originated principally through national and regional retailers and other vendors of these products and services. We have historically originated these loans through GreenSky and LendingPoint. However, during the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company ceased originating consumer loans through both GreenSky and LendingPoint. Subsequently, we sold our LendingPoint portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2024, and in April 2025 sold participation interests in consumer loans with an aggregate principal amount of $317.5 million that were originated through the GreenSky program.
Commercial Equipment Leasing. We originate and manage custom leasing and financing programs for commercial customers on a nationwide basis. The industries we service include manufacturing, construction, transportation and healthcare. The financings generated are typically retained and serviced by the Bank, and are generally leases between $50,000 and $500,000, but can be larger in certain circumstances.
Deposit Taking. We offer traditional depository products, including checking, savings, money market and certificates of deposits, to individuals, businesses, municipalities and other entities throughout our market areas. We also offer sweep accounts to our business customers. Deposits at the Bank are insured by the FDIC up to statutory limits. We also offer sweep accounts that are guaranteed through repurchase agreements to our business and municipal customers. Our ability to gather deposits, particularly core deposits, is an important aspect of our business franchise.
Wealth Management. Our wealth management group operates under the name Midland Wealth Management and provides a comprehensive suite of trust and wealth management products and services, including financial and estate planning,
trustee and custodial services, investment management, tax and insurance planning, business planning, corporate retirement plan consulting and administration and retail brokerage services through a nationally recognized third party broker dealer.
Competition
We compete in a number of areas, including commercial and retail banking, residential mortgages, wealth management and commercial equipment leasing. These industries are highly competitive, and the Bank and its subsidiaries face strong direct competition for deposits, loans and leases, wealth management, and other financial-related services. We compete primarily with other community banks, thrifts and credit unions. In addition, we compete with large banks and other financial intermediaries, such as consumer finance companies, private credit funds, brokerage firms, mortgage banking companies, business leasing and finance companies, insurance companies, securities firms, mutual funds and certain government agencies as well as major retailers, all actively engaged in providing various types of loans and other financial services. Additionally, we face growing competition from so-called "online businesses" with few or no physical locations, including online banks, lenders and consumer and commercial lending platforms, and FinTech companies, as well as automated retirement and investment service providers. We believe that the range and quality of products that we offer, the knowledge of our personnel and our emphasis on building long-lasting relationships set us apart from our competitors.

Human Capital Resources
At December 31, 2024, we had 896 employees, including 32 part-time employees. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining group. Management considers its employee relations to be good. We believe our ability to attract and retain employees is a key to our success. Accordingly, we strive to offer competitive salaries and employee benefits to all employees and monitor salaries in our market areas.
In addition, we are committed to developing our staff through continuing and specialty education within banking. In this regard, we have developed and provided all employees with access to our Midland University training program. This program was developed to provide continuing education required or advisable regarding regulatory matters (such as anti-money laundering, bank secrecy, etc.) as well as other matters important to our organization and culture (e.g., social inclusion, diversity
and non-discrimination, etc.). Additionally, our Midland University program provides for continuing education in areas specifically related to our banking and financial services business.
Leadership and professional development at Midland is reinforced through programs designed to cultivate talent and accelerate development. Our MASTERS program—Midland’s Advanced Study for Talent Enrichment and Resource Strengthening— enhances the career growth of high-potential employees who demonstrate the qualities essential for the Company’s continued success. More than 110 employees have participated in this program since 2016. Additionally, we support professional growth and community-building through affinity groups such as Midland WOMEN and the African American Affinity Group. Midland WOMEN is dedicated to advancing the leadership development of women at all levels of the organization, offering programs and initiatives that engage employees across the Company. The African American Affinity Group provides a platform for personal and professional development, fostering opportunities for advancement and mentorship. Executive management actively supports these groups.

Supervision and Regulation
General
FDIC-insured institutions, their holding companies and their affiliates are extensively regulated under federal and state law. As a result, the Company’s growth and earnings performance may be affected not only by management decisions and general economic conditions, but also by the requirements of federal and state statutes and by the regulations and policies of various banking agencies, including the DFPR, the Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the CFPB. Furthermore, taxation laws administered by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities, accounting rules developed by the FASB, securities laws administered by the SEC and state securities authorities, and anti-money laundering laws and sanctions enforced by the Treasury have an impact on the Company’s business. The effect of these statutes, regulations, regulatory policies and accounting rules are significant to the Company’s operations and results.
Federal and state banking laws impose a comprehensive system of supervision, regulation and enforcement on the operations of FDIC-insured institutions, their holding companies and affiliates that is intended primarily for the protection of the FDIC-insured deposits and depositors of banks, rather than shareholders. These laws, and the regulations of the banking agencies issued under them, affect, among other things, the scope of the Company’s business, the kinds and amounts of investments that the Company and the Bank may make, required capital levels relative to assets, the nature and amount of collateral for loans, the establishment of branches, the ability of the Company or the Bank to merge, consolidate and acquire, dealings with the Company’s and the Bank’s insiders and affiliates and the Company’s payment of dividends. In reaction to the global financial crisis and particularly following the passage of the Dodd Frank Act, the Company experienced heightened regulatory requirements and scrutiny. Although the reforms primarily targeted large banking organizations and systemically important financial institutions, their influence filtered down in varying degrees to community banks over time and caused the Company’s compliance and risk management processes, and the costs thereof, to increase. However, in May 2018, the Regulatory Relief Act was enacted by Congress in part to provide regulatory relief for community banks and their holding companies. To that end, the law eliminated questions about the applicability of certain Dodd-Frank Act reforms to community bank systems, including relieving the Company of any requirement to engage in mandatory stress tests, maintain a risk committee or comply with the Volcker Rule’s complicated prohibitions on proprietary trading and ownership of private funds. The Company believes these reforms are favorable to its operations. It is anticipated that the Trump Administration and the current U.S. Congress likely will not increase the regulatory burden on community banking organizations and may seek to reduce and streamline certain prudential and regulatory requirements applicable to these banking organizations at a federal level based on statements made by relevant congressional leaders and the acting leaders of certain federal banking agencies. At this time, however, it is not possible to predict with any certainty the actual impact that the Trump Administration may have on the banking industry or the operations of the Company or the Bank.
The supervisory framework for U.S. banking organizations subjects banks and bank holding companies to regular examination by their respective banking agencies, which results in examination reports and ratings that are not publicly available and that can impact the conduct and growth of their business. These examinations consider not only compliance with applicable laws and regulations, but also capital levels, asset quality and risk, management ability and performance, earnings,
liquidity, and various other factors. The banking agencies generally have broad discretion to impose restrictions and limitations on the operations of a regulated entity where the agencies determine, among other things, that such operations are unsafe or unsound, fail to comply with applicable law or are otherwise inconsistent with laws and regulations. The approach to supervision adopted by each banking agency may have significant impacts on the operations and results of the Company and the Bank, as well as the banking industry in general. Based on statements made by congressional leaders and the acting leaders of certain federal banking agencies, there may be changes in the supervisory processes and approach made by the federal banking agencies.
The following is a summary of the material elements of the supervisory and regulatory framework applicable to the Company and the Bank. It does not describe all of the statutes, regulations and regulatory policies that apply, nor does it restate all of the requirements of those that are described. The descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the particular statutory and regulatory provision.
The Role of Capital
Regulatory capital represents the net assets of a banking organization available to absorb losses. Because of the risks attendant to their business, FDIC-insured institutions, such as the Bank, as well as their holding companies (i.e., banking organizations) are generally required to hold more capital than other businesses, which directly affects the Company’s earnings capabilities. While capital has historically been one of the key measures of the financial health of both bank holding companies and banks, its role became fundamentally more important in the wake of the global financial crisis, as the banking agencies recognized that the amount and quality of capital held by banking organizations prior to that crisis was insufficient to absorb losses during periods of severe stress. Certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act and the Basel III Rule, defined and discussed below, establish capital standards for banks and bank holding companies that are meaningfully more stringent than those in place previously.
Minimum Required Capital Levels. Banking organizations have been required to hold minimum levels of capital based on guidelines established by the Federal banking agencies since 1983. The minimum capital levels for banking organizations have been expressed in terms of ratios of “capital” divided by “total assets”. As discussed below, bank capital measures have become more sophisticated over the years and have focused more on the quality of capital and the risks of bank assets. Bank holding companies have historically had to comply with less stringent capital standards than their bank subsidiaries and have been able to raise capital with hybrid instruments such as trust preferred securities. The Dodd-Frank Act mandated the Federal Reserve to establish minimum capital levels for bank holding companies on a consolidated basis as stringent as those required for FDIC-insured institutions. A result of this change is that the proceeds of hybrid instruments, such as trust preferred securities, were excluded from capital over a phase-out period. However, if such securities were issued prior to May 19, 2010 by bank holding companies with less than $15 billion of assets, they may be retained, subject to certain restrictions. Because the Company has assets of less than $15 billion, the Company is able to maintain its trust preferred proceeds as capital but the Company has to comply with new capital mandates in other respects and will not be able to raise capital in the future through the issuance of trust preferred securities.
The Basel International Capital Accords. The risk-based capital guidelines for U.S. banking organizations since 1989 were based upon the 1988 capital accord known as “Basel I” adopted by the international Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, a committee of central banks and bank supervisors that acts as the primary global standard-setter for prudential regulation, as implemented by the U.S. banking agencies on an interagency basis. The accord recognized that bank assets for the purpose of the capital ratio calculations needed to be assigned risk weights (the theory being that riskier assets should require more capital) and that off-balance sheet exposures needed to be factored in the calculations. Basel I had a very simple formula for assigning risk weights to bank assets from 0% to 100% based on four categories. In 2008, the banking agencies collaboratively began to phase-in capital standards based on a second capital accord, referred to as “Basel II,” for large or “core” international banks (generally defined for U.S. purposes as having total assets of $250 billion or more, or consolidated foreign exposures of $10 billion or more) known as “advanced approaches” banks. The primary focus of Basel II was on the calculation of risk weights based on complex models developed by each advanced approaches bank. Because most banks were not subject to Basel II, the U.S. banking agencies worked to improve the risk sensitivity of the Basel I standards without imposing the complexities of Basel II. This “standardized approach” increased the number of risk-weight categories and recognized risks well above the original 100% maximum risk weight. It is institutionalized by the Dodd-Frank Act for all banking organizations, even for the advanced approaches banks, as a floor.
On September 12, 2010, the Group of Governors and Heads of Supervision, the oversight body of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, announced an agreement on a strengthened set of capital requirements for banking organizations around the world, known as "Basel III", to address deficiencies recognized in connection with the global financial crisis.
The Basel III Rule. In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking agencies approved the implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms in pertinent part, and, at the same time, promulgated rules effecting certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act (the "Basel III Rule"). In contrast to capital requirements historically, which were in the form of guidelines, Basel III was released in the form of enforceable regulations by each of the federal banking agencies. The Basel III Rule is applicable to all banking organizations that are subject to minimum capital requirements, including national and state banks and savings and loan associations, as well as to bank and savings and loan holding companies, other than “small bank holding companies” (generally holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $3 billion) and certain qualifying banking organizations that may elect a simplified framework (which the Company has not done.) Thus, the Company and the Bank are each currently subject to the Basel III Rule as described below.
The Basel III Rule increased the required quantity and quality of capital and, for nearly every class of assets, it requires a more complex, detailed and calibrated assessment of risk and calculation of risk-weight amounts.
Not only did the Basel III Rule increase most of the required minimum capital ratios in effect prior to January 1, 2015, but it introduced the concept of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, which consists primarily of common stock, related surplus (net of Treasury stock), retained earnings, and Common Equity Tier 1 minority interests subject to certain regulatory adjustments. The Basel III Rule also changed the definition of capital by establishing more stringent criteria that instruments must meet to be considered Additional Tier 1 Capital (primarily non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock that meets certain requirements) and Tier 2 Capital (primarily other types of preferred stock and subordinated debt, subject to limitations). A number of instruments that qualified as Tier 1 Capital under Basel I do not qualify, or their qualifications changed. For example, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, which qualified as simple Tier 1 Capital under Basel I, does not qualify as Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, but qualifies as Additional Tier 1 Capital. The Basel III Rule also constrained the inclusion of minority interests, mortgage-servicing assets, and deferred tax assets in capital and requires deductions from Common Equity Tier 1 Capital in the event that such assets exceed a certain percentage of a banking organization’s Common Equity Tier 1 Capital.
The Basel III Rule requires banking organizations to maintain minimum capital ratios as follows:
•A ratio of minimum Common Equity Tier 1 Capital equal to 4.5% of risk-weighted assets;
•An increase in the minimum required amount of Tier 1 Capital from 4% to 6% of risk-weighted assets;
•A continuation of the minimum required amount of Total Capital (Tier 1 plus Tier 2) at 8% of risk-weighted assets; and
•A minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 Capital to total quarterly average assets equal to 4% in all circumstances.
In addition, banking organizations that want to make capital distributions (including for dividends and repurchases of stock) and pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers without restriction must also maintain 2.5% in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital attributable to a capital conservation buffer. The purpose of the conservation buffer is to ensure that banking organizations maintain a buffer of capital that can be used to absorb losses during periods of financial and economic stress. Factoring in the conservation buffer increases the minimum ratios depicted above to 7% for Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, 8.5% for Tier 1 Capital and 10.5% for Total Capital.
In July 2023, the Biden Administration federal banking agencies had proposed wide-ranging and significant changes to the Basel III Rule (the “Basel III Endgame Proposal”), which would have, among other requirements, imposed structural changes to the calculation of capital requirements and risk-weighted assets in an effort to finish the implementation of the Basel III accords. The Basel III Endgame Proposal would generally have impacted the capital requirements applicable to banking organizations with $100 billion or more in total assets, and, as a general matter, would not have had a significant impact on the Company or the Bank. The Basel III Endgame Proposal has not been, and is not expected to be, adopted in a form substantially similar to the Basel III Endgame Proposal. Based on statements made by the current leaders of the federal banking agencies, as well as the Secretary of the Treasury, the agencies may issue a new version of this proposal.
Well-Capitalized Requirements. The capital ratios described above are minimum standards in order for banking organizations to be considered “adequately capitalized.” Banking agencies uniformly encourage banking organizations to hold more capital and be “well-capitalized” and, to that end, federal law and regulations provide various incentives for banking organizations to maintain regulatory capital at levels in excess of minimum regulatory requirements. For example, a banking organization that is well-capitalized may: (i) qualify for exemptions from prior notice or application requirements otherwise applicable to certain types of activities; (ii) qualify for expedited processing of other required notices or applications; and (iii) accept, roll-over or renew brokered deposits. Higher capital levels could also be required if warranted by the particular circumstances or risk profiles of individual banking organizations. For example, the Federal Reserve’s capital guidelines
contemplate that additional capital may be required to take adequate account of, among other things, interest rate risk, or the risks posed by concentrations of credit, nontraditional activities or securities trading activities. Further, any banking organization experiencing or anticipating significant growth would be expected to maintain capital ratios, including tangible capital positions (i.e., Tier 1 Capital less all intangible assets), well above the minimum levels.
Under the capital regulations of the Federal Reserve, in order to be well-capitalized, a banking organization must maintain:
•A Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio to risk-weighted assets of 6.5% or more;
•A ratio of Tier 1 Capital to total risk-weighted assets of 8% or more;
•A ratio of Total Capital to total risk-weighted assets of 10% or more; and
•A leverage ratio of Tier 1 Capital to total adjusted average quarterly assets of 5% or greater.
It is possible under the Basel III Rule to be well-capitalized while remaining out of compliance with the capital conservation buffer discussed above.
As of December 31, 2024: (i) the Bank was not subject to a directive from the Federal Reserve or the DFPR to increase its capital; and (ii) the Bank was well-capitalized, as defined by Federal Reserve regulations. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had regulatory capital in excess of the Federal Reserve’s requirements and met the Basel III Rule requirements to be well-capitalized. The Company is also in compliance with the capital conservation buffer.
Prompt Corrective Action. The concept of a banking organization being “well-capitalized” is part of a regulatory enforcement regime that provides the federal banking agencies with broad power to take “prompt corrective action” to resolve the problems of undercapitalized depository institutions based on the capital level of each particular institution. The extent of the banking agencies’ powers depends on whether the banking organization in question is “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” or “critically undercapitalized,” in each case as defined by regulation. Depending upon the capital category to which a banking organization is assigned, the banking agencies’ corrective powers include: (i) requiring the institution to submit a capital restoration plan; (ii) limiting the institution’s asset growth and restricting its activities; (iii) requiring the institution to issue additional capital stock (including additional voting stock) or to sell itself; (iv) restricting transactions between the institution and its affiliates; (v) restricting the interest rate that the institution may pay on deposits; (vi) ordering a new election of directors of the institution; (vii) requiring that senior executive officers or directors be dismissed; (viii) prohibiting the institution from accepting deposits from correspondent banks; (ix) requiring the institution to divest certain subsidiaries; (x) prohibiting the payment of principal or interest on subordinated debt; and (xi) ultimately, appointing a receiver for the institution.
Community Bank Capital Simplification. Community banking organizations have long raised concerns with the federal banking agencies about the regulatory burden, complexity, and costs associated with certain provisions of the Basel III Rule. In response, the U.S. Congress provided an “off-ramp” for institutions, like the Company, with total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion as part of the Regulatory Relief Act. Section 201 of the Regulatory Relief Act specifically instructed the federal banking agencies to establish a single CBLR of between 8% and 10%. Under the final rule, a community banking organization is eligible to elect to comply with its capital requirements the CBLR framework if it has (i) less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, (ii) limited amounts of certain assets and off-balance sheet exposures, and (iii) a CBLR greater than 9%. Nevertheless, the Company has not currently determined to elect the CBLR, but it may elect the framework at any time.
Supervision and Regulation of the Company
General. The Company, as the sole shareholder of the Bank, is a bank holding company that has elected financial holding company status. As a bank holding company, the Company is registered with, and is subject to regulation supervision and enforcement by, the Federal Reserve under the BHCA. The Company is legally obligated to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to the Bank and to commit resources to support the Bank in circumstances where the Company might not otherwise do so. Under the BHCA, the Company is subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve. The Company is required to file with the Federal Reserve periodic reports of the Company’s operations and such additional information regarding the Company and its subsidiaries as the Federal Reserve may require.
Acquisitions, Activities and Financial Holding Company Election. The primary purpose of a bank holding company is to control and manage banks. The BHCA generally requires the prior approval of the Federal Reserve for any merger involving a bank holding company or any acquisition by a bank holding company of another bank or bank holding company. Subject to certain conditions (including deposit concentration limits established by the BHCA), the Federal Reserve may allow a bank
holding company to acquire banks located in any state of the United States. In approving interstate acquisitions, the Federal Reserve is required to give effect to applicable state law limitations on the aggregate amount of deposits that may be held by the acquiring bank holding company and its FDIC-insured institution affiliates in the state in which the target bank is located (provided that those limits do not discriminate against out-of-state institutions or their holding companies) and state laws that require that the target bank have been in existence for a minimum period of time (not to exceed five years) before being acquired by an out-of-state bank holding company. Furthermore, in accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act, bank holding companies must be well-capitalized and well-managed in order to effect interstate mergers or acquisitions. For a discussion of the capital requirements, see “The Role of Capital” above.
The BHCA generally prohibits the Company from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of 5% or more of a class of the voting shares of any company that is not a bank and from engaging in any business other than that of banking, managing and controlling banks or furnishing services to banks and their subsidiaries. This general prohibition is subject to a number of exceptions. The principal exception allows bank holding companies to engage in, and to own shares of companies engaged in, certain businesses found by the Federal Reserve prior to November 11, 1999 to be “so closely related to banking ... as to be a proper incident thereto.” This authority permits the Company to engage in a variety of banking-related businesses, including the ownership and operation of a savings association, or any entity engaged in consumer finance, equipment leasing, the operation of a computer service bureau (including software development) and mortgage banking and brokerage services. The BHCA does not place territorial restrictions on the domestic activities of nonbank subsidiaries of bank holding companies. In addition to approval from the Federal Reserve that may be required in certain circumstances, prior approval for acquisitions by the Company may be required from other agencies, such as the DFPR or other agencies that regulate the target company of an acquisition.
Additionally, bank holding companies that meet certain eligibility requirements prescribed by the BHCA and elect to operate as financial holding companies may engage in, or own shares in companies engaged in, a wider range of nonbanking activities, including securities and insurance underwriting and sales, merchant banking and any other activity that the Federal Reserve, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines by regulation or order is financial in nature or incidental to any such financial activity or that the Federal Reserve determines by order to be complementary to any such financial activity and does not pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of FDIC-insured institutions or the financial system generally. In 2006, the Company elected to operate as a financial holding company. In order to maintain its status as a financial holding company, the Company and the Bank must be well-capitalized, well-managed, and the Bank must have a least a satisfactory CRA rating. If the Federal Reserve determines that a financial holding company is not well-capitalized or well-managed, the Company has a period of time in which to achieve compliance, but during the period of noncompliance, the Federal Reserve may place any limitations on the Company that it believes to be appropriate. Furthermore, if the Federal Reserve determines that a financial holding company’s subsidiary bank has not received a satisfactory CRA rating, that company will not be able to commence any new financial activities or acquire a company that engages in such activities.
Change in Control. Federal law prohibits any person or company from acquiring “control” of an FDIC-insured depository institution or its holding company without prior notice to the appropriate federal banking agency. “Control” is conclusively presumed to exist upon the acquisition of 25% or more of the outstanding voting securities of a bank or bank holding company, but may arise under certain circumstances between 10% and 24.99% ownership.
Capital Requirements. Bank holding companies are required to maintain capital in accordance with Federal Reserve capital adequacy requirements. For a discussion of capital requirements, see “The Role of Capital” above.
Dividend Payments. The Company’s ability to pay dividends to the Company’s shareholders may be affected by both general corporate law considerations and the policies and capital requirements of the Federal Reserve applicable to bank holding companies. As an Illinois corporation, the Company is subject to the limitations of the Illinois Business Corporations Act, as amended, which allows us to pay dividends unless, after such dividend, (i) the Company would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or (ii) the Company’s total assets would be less than the sum of the Company’s total liabilities plus any amount that would be needed if it were to be dissolved at the time of the dividend payment, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders whose rights are superior to the rights of the shareholders receiving the distribution.
As a general matter, the Federal Reserve has indicated that the board of directors of a bank holding company should eliminate, defer or significantly reduce dividends to shareholders if: (i) the company’s net income available to shareholders for the past four quarters, net of dividends previously paid during that period, is not sufficient to fully fund the dividends; (ii) the prospective rate of earnings retention is inconsistent with the company’s capital needs and overall current and prospective financial condition; or (iii) the company will not meet, or is in danger of not meeting, its minimum regulatory capital adequacy ratios. The Federal Reserve also possesses enforcement powers over bank holding companies and their non-bank subsidiaries to
prevent or remedy actions that represent unsafe or unsound practices or violations of applicable statutes and regulations. Among these powers is the ability to proscribe the payment of dividends by banks and bank holding companies. In addition, under the Basel III Rule, banking organizations that want to pay unrestricted dividends have to maintain 2.5% in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital attributable to the capital conservation buffer. See “The Role of Capital” above.
Incentive Compensation. There have been a number of developments in recent years focused on incentive compensation plans sponsored by bank holding companies and banks, reflecting recognition by the federal banking agencies and U.S. Congress that flawed incentive compensation practices in the financial industry were one of many factors contributing to the global financial crisis. The result is interagency guidance on sound incentive compensation practices for banking organizations.
The interagency guidance recognized three core principles. Effective incentive plans should: (i) provide employees incentives that appropriately balance risk and reward; (ii) be compatible with effective controls and risk-management; and (iii) be supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the organization’s board of directors. Much of the guidance is directed at large banking organizations and, because of the size and complexity of their operations, the federal banking agencies expect those organizations to maintain systematic and formalized policies, procedures, and systems for ensuring that the incentive compensation arrangements for all executive and non-executive employees covered by this guidance are identified and reviewed, and appropriately balance risks and rewards. Under the guidance, smaller banking organizations like the Company that use incentive compensation arrangements are expected to implement less extensive, formalized, and detailed policies, procedures, and systems than those of larger banks.
In May 2024, certain of the federal banking and other financial services agencies released a proposed rule regarding certain incentive-based compensation arrangements at certain financial institutions with at least $1 billion in assets, as required under Section 956 of the Dodd-Frank Act. This proposal was largely based on an earlier 2016 proposal. The Federal Reserve and the SEC, however, did not join this proposal and it was not published in the Federal Register, signaling potential interagency misalignment. In March 2025, the FDIC withdrew its support for this proposed rule, making it unlikely that any rule in a substantially similar form will be finalized.
Monetary Policy. The monetary policy of the Federal Reserve has a significant effect on the operating results of bank holding companies and their subsidiaries. Among the tools available to the Federal Reserve to affect the money supply are open market transactions in U.S. government securities, changes in the discount rate on bank borrowings and changes in reserve requirements against bank deposits. These means are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and their use may affect interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits, which may impact the business and operations of the Company and the Bank.
Federal Securities Regulation. The Company’s common stock is registered with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Exchange Act. Consequently, the Company is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading and other restrictions and requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act.
Corporate Governance. The Dodd-Frank Act addressed many investor protection, corporate governance and executive compensation matters that will affect most U.S. publicly traded companies. The Dodd Frank Act increased shareholder influence over boards of directors by requiring companies to give shareholders a nonbinding vote on executive compensation and so-called “golden parachute” payments, and authorizing the SEC to promulgate rules that would allow shareholders to nominate and solicit voters for their own candidates using a company’s proxy materials. The Dodd-Frank Act also directed the Federal Reserve, together with the other federal banking and financial services agencies, to promulgate rules prohibiting excessive compensation paid to executives of bank holding companies, regardless of whether such companies are publicly traded.
Supervision and Regulation of the Bank
General. The Bank is an Illinois-chartered bank. The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured by the FDIC’s DIF to the maximum extent provided under federal law and FDIC regulations, currently $250,000 per insured depositor category. As an Illinois-chartered FDIC-insured bank, the Bank is subject to the examination, supervision, reporting and enforcement requirements of the DFPR, the chartering authority for Illinois banks, and, as a bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Reserve.
Deposit Insurance. As an FDIC-insured institution, the Bank is required to pay deposit insurance premium assessments to the FDIC. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based assessment system whereby FDIC-insured institutions pay insurance premiums at rates based on their risk classification. For institutions like the Bank that are not considered large and
highly complex banking organizations, assessments are now based on examination ratings and financial ratios. The total base assessment rates, effective as of January 1, 2023, currently range from 2.5 basis points to 32 basis points.
At least semi-annually, the FDIC updates its loss and income projections for the DIF and, if needed, increases or decreases the assessment rates, following notice and comment on proposed rulemaking.
For this purpose, the reserve ratio is the DIF balance divided by estimated insured deposits. In response to the global financial crisis, the Dodd-Frank Act increased the minimum reserve ratio from 1.15% to 1.35% of the estimated amount of total insured deposits. In its October 2024 semiannual update, the FDIC stated that the reserve ratio likely will reach the statutory minimum by the September 30, 2028 deadline; and no adjustments to the base assessment rates is currently projected.
In addition, because the total cost of the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank to the DIF was approximately $24.1 billion, the FDIC adopted a special assessment for banking organizations with assets of $5 billion or more, at an annual rate of 13.4 basis points beginning with the first quarterly assessment period of 2024, and an invoice payment date of June 28, 2024. The FDIC will continue to collect special assessments for an anticipated total of eight quarterly assessment periods. The base for the special assessment is equal to an insured depository institution’s estimated uninsured deposits for the December 31, 2022 reporting period, adjusted to exclude the first $5 billion in estimated uninsured deposits. Although the Bank was technically subject to the FDIC special assessment as part of a banking organization with assets of $5 billion or more, the Bank does not have to pay this assessment.
Supervisory Assessments. All Illinois-chartered banks are required to pay supervisory assessments to the DFPR to fund the operations of that agency. The amount of the assessment is calculated on the basis of the Bank’s total assets. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Bank paid supervisory assessments to the DFPR totaling approximately $0.5 million.
Capital Requirements. Banks are generally required to maintain capital levels in excess of other businesses. For a discussion of capital requirements, see “The Role of Capital” above.
Liquidity Requirements. Liquidity is a measure of the ability and ease with which bank assets may be converted to cash to meet financial obligations, such as deposits or other funding sources. Banks are required to implement liquidity risk management frameworks that ensure they maintain sufficient liquidity, including a cushion of unencumbered, high quality liquid assets, to withstand a range of stress events. The level and speed of deposit outflows contributing to the failures of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and First Republic Bank in the first half of 2023 was unprecedented and contributed to acute liquidity and funding strain. These events have further underscored the importance of liquidity risk management and contingency funding planning by insured depository institutions like the Bank, as highlighted in a 2023 addendum to existing interagency guidance on funding and liquidity risk management.
The primary roles of liquidity risk management are to: (i) prospectively assess the need for funds to meet financial obligations; and (ii) ensure the availability of cash or collateral to fulfill those needs at the appropriate time by coordinating the various sources of funds available to the institution under normal and stressed conditions. Because the global financial crisis was in part a liquidity crisis, the Basel III Rule includes a liquidity framework that requires the largest FDIC-insured institutions to measure their liquidity against specific liquidity tests. One test, referred to as the liquidity coverage ratio, or LCR, is designed to ensure that the banking organization has an adequate stock of unencumbered high-quality liquid assets that can be converted easily and immediately in private markets into cash to meet liquidity needs for a 30-calendar day liquidity stress scenario. The other test, known as the net stable funding ratio, or NSFR, is designed to promote more medium- and long-term funding of the assets and activities of FDIC-insured institutions over a one-year horizon. These tests provide an incentive for banks and bank holding companies to increase their holdings in Treasury securities and other sovereign debt as a component of assets, increase the use of long-term debt as a funding source and rely on stable funding like core deposits (in lieu of brokered deposits).
In addition to liquidity guidelines already in place, the federal banking agencies implemented the Basel III LCR in September 2014, which requires large financial firms to hold levels of liquid assets sufficient to protect against constraints on their funding during times of financial turmoil, and in 2016 proposed implementation of the NSFR. While these rules do not, apply to the Bank, it continues to review its liquidity risk management policies in light of developments. For instance, in July 2024, the FDIC released a request for information on deposits, soliciting information on whether and to what extent certain types of deposits may behave differently from each other (particularly during periods of economic or financial stress), the results of which may impact liquidity monitoring and risk management requirements going forward.
Dividend Payments. The primary source of funds for the Company is dividends from the Bank. Under Illinois banking law, Illinois-chartered banks generally may pay dividends only out of undivided profits. The DFPR may restrict the declaration
or payment of a dividend by an Illinois-chartered bank, such as the Bank. The Federal Reserve Act also imposes limitations on the amount of dividends paid by state member banks, such as the Bank. Without Federal Reserve approval, a state member bank may not pay dividends in any calendar year that, in the aggregate, exceed that bank’s calendar year-to-date net income plus the bank’s retained income for the two preceding calendar years.
The payment of dividends by any FDIC-insured institution is affected by the requirement to maintain adequate capital pursuant to applicable capital adequacy guidelines and regulations, and an FDIC-insured institution generally is prohibited from paying any dividends if, following payment thereof, the institution would be undercapitalized. As described above, the Bank exceeded its capital requirements under applicable guidelines as of December 31, 2024. Notwithstanding the availability of funds for dividends, however, the Federal Reserve, the FDIC, and the DFPR may prohibit the payment of dividends by the Bank any of them determine such payment would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. In addition, under the Basel III Rule, institutions that want to pay unrestricted dividends have to maintain 2.5% in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital attributable to the capital conservation buffer. See “The Role of Capital” above.
State Bank Investments, Activities and Acquisitions. The Bank is permitted to make investments and engage in activities directly or through subsidiaries as authorized by Illinois law. However, under federal law and FDIC regulations, FDIC-insured state banks are prohibited, subject to certain exceptions, from making or retaining equity investments of a type, or in an amount, that are not permissible for a national bank. Federal law and FDIC regulations also prohibit FDIC-insured state banks and their subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, from engaging as principal in any activity that is not permitted for a national bank unless the bank meets, and continues to meet, its minimum regulatory capital requirements and the FDIC determines that the activity would not pose a significant risk to the DIF. These restrictions have not had, and are not currently expected to have, a material impact on the operations of the Bank.
The Bank may be required to seek approval from the DFPR and the Federal Reserve (or in some cases, the FDIC) before engaging in certain acquisitions or mergers under applicable state and federal law. In 2024, each of the OCC and the FDIC separately released updated policy statements—and in the case of the OCC, a final rule—regarding how each banking agency reviews applications submitted pursuant to the Bank Merger Act based on statutory factors. In March 2025, the FDIC issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to repeal its 2024 policy statement and reinstate its prior policy statement on bank mergers, while it considers wider changes to its bank merger review practices. Although the Federal Reserve, the Bank’s primary federal regulator, did not release any updated policy statement or rules regarding its review process under the Bank Merger Act in recent years, management of the Company has considered the impact that the OCC’s and FDIC’s rules and guidance may have on the review of any relevant transactions that the Bank undertakes.
Insider Transactions. The Bank is subject to certain restrictions imposed by federal law on “covered transactions” between the Bank and its “affiliates.” The Company is an affiliate of the Bank for purposes of these restrictions, and covered transactions subject to the restrictions include extensions of credit to the Company, investments in the stock or other securities of the Company and the acceptance of the stock or other securities of the Company as collateral for loans made by the Bank. The Dodd-Frank Act enhanced the requirements for certain transactions with affiliates, including an expansion of the definition of “covered transactions” and an increase in the amount of time for which collateral requirements regarding covered transactions must be maintained.
Certain limitations and reporting requirements are also placed on extensions of credit by the Bank to its directors and officers, to directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries, to principal shareholders of the Company and to “related interests” of such directors, officers and principal shareholders. In addition, federal law and regulations may affect the terms upon which any person who is a director or officer of the Company or the Bank, or a principal shareholder of the Company, may obtain credit from banks with which the Bank maintains a correspondent relationship.
Safety and Soundness Standards/Risk Management. The federal banking agencies have adopted operational and managerial standards to promote the safety and soundness of FDIC-insured institutions. The standards apply to internal controls, information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, compensation, fees and benefits, asset quality and earnings.
In general, the safety and soundness standards prescribe the goals to be achieved in each area, and each institution is responsible for establishing its own procedures to achieve those goals. Although regulatory standards do not have the force of law, if an institution operates in an unsafe and unsound manner, the FDIC-insured institution’s primary federal regulator may require the institution to submit a plan for achieving and maintaining compliance. If an FDIC-insured institution fails to submit an acceptable compliance plan, or fails in any material respect to implement a compliance plan that has been accepted by its primary federal regulator, the banking agency is required to issue an order directing the institution to cure the deficiency. Until the deficiency cited in the agency’s order is cured, the agency may restrict the FDIC-insured institution’s rate of growth, require
the FDIC-insured institution to increase its capital, restrict the rates the institution pays on deposits or require the institution to take any action the agency deems appropriate under the circumstances. Noncompliance with safety and soundness may also constitute grounds for other enforcement action by the federal banking agencies, including cease and desist orders and civil money penalty assessments.
During the past decade, the banking agencies have increasingly emphasized the importance of sound risk management processes and strong internal controls when evaluating the activities of the FDIC-insured institutions they supervise. Properly managing risks has been identified as critical to the conduct of safe and sound banking activities and has become even more important as new technologies, product innovation, and the size and speed of financial transactions have changed the nature of banking markets. The banking agencies have identified a spectrum of risks facing a banking organization including, but not limited to, credit, market, liquidity, operational, legal, and reputational risk. The key risk themes identified for 2024 are: (i) elevated operational risk as banks adapt to an evolving technology environment and persistent cybersecurity risks, (ii) the need for banks to prepare for a cyclical change in credit risk while credit performance is strong, (iii) elevated interest rate risk due to lower rates continuing to compress net interest margins, and (iv) strategic risks from non-depository financial institutions, use of innovative and evolving technology, and progressive data analysis capabilities. The Bank is expected to have active board and senior management oversight; adequate policies, procedures, and limits; adequate risk measurement, monitoring, and management information systems; and comprehensive internal controls. The federal banking agencies also have released specific risk management guidance on certain topics, including third-party relationships, in response to the proliferation of relationships between banking organizations and financial technology companies (although the guidance applies more broadly).
Privacy and Cybersecurity. The Bank is subject to many U.S. federal and state laws and regulations governing requirements for maintaining policies and procedures to protect non-public personal and confidential information of their customers. These laws require the Bank to periodically disclose its privacy policies and practices relating to sharing such information and permit consumers to opt out of their ability to share information with unaffiliated third parties under certain circumstances. They also impact the Bank’s ability to share certain information with affiliates and non-affiliates for marketing and/or non-marketing purposes, or to contact customers with marketing offers. In addition, the Bank is required to implement a comprehensive information security program that includes administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to ensure the security and confidentiality of customer records and information. These security and privacy policies and procedures, for the protection of personal and confidential information, are in effect across all businesses and geographic locations. The Bank and the Company also are subject to a number of federal and state laws and regulations requiring notifications and disclosures regarding certain cybersecurity incidents. The Bank must also consider and address cybersecurity considerations as part of its risk management processes.
Branching Authority. Illinois banks, such as the Bank, have the authority under Illinois law to establish branches anywhere in the State of Illinois, subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals. The establishment of new interstate branches has historically been permitted only in those states the laws of which expressly authorize such expansion. The Dodd-Frank Act permits well-capitalized and well-managed banks to establish new interstate branches or the acquisition of individual branches of a bank in another state (rather than the acquisition of an out-of-state bank in its entirety) without impediments. Federal law permits state and national banks to merge with banks in other states subject to: (i) regulatory approval; (ii) federal and state deposit concentration limits; and (iii) state law limitations requiring the merging bank to have been in existence for a minimum period of time (not to exceed five years) prior to the merger.
Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of a FHLB, which serves as a central credit facility for its members. The FHLB is funded primarily from proceeds from the sale of obligations of the FHLB system. It makes loans to member banks in the form of FHLB advances. All advances from the FHLB are required to be fully collateralized as determined by the FHLB.
Community Reinvestment Act Requirements. The CRA requires the Bank to have a continuing and affirmative obligation in a safe and sound manner to help meet the credit needs of the entire community, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. The Federal Reserve regularly assess the Bank’s record of meeting the credit needs of its communities. The Bank's CRA ratings derived from these examinations can have significant impacts on the activities in which the Bank and the Company may engage. For example, a low CRA rating may impact the review of applications for acquisitions by the Bank or the Company's financial holding company status.
On October 24, 2023, the federal banking agencies issued a final rule to strengthen and modernize the CRA regulations (the “CRA Rule”). Elements of this rule were supposed to become effective on April 1, 2024 (while other elements had much later effective dates). However, the effective date of the CRA Rule was paused because of an order issued as part of ongoing litigation claiming that the federal banking agencies exceeded their statutory authority in promulgating the CRA Rule.
Despite the lawsuit, management of the Bank is continuing to assess the impact of the CRA Rule on its CRA lending and investment activities in its respective markets.
The CRA Rule is designed to update how CRA activities qualify for consideration, where CRA activities are considered, and how CRA activities are evaluated. More specifically, the federal banking agencies described the goals of the CRA Rule as follows: (i) to expand access to credit, investment, and basic banking services in low and moderate income communities; (ii) to adapt to changes in the banking industry, including mobile and internet banking by modernizing assessment areas while maintaining a focus on branch based areas; (iii) to provide greater clarity, consistency, and transparency in the application of the regulations through the use of standardized metrics as part of CRA evaluation and clarifying eligible CRA activities focused on low and moderate income communities and underserved rural communities; (iv) to tailor CRA rules and data collection to bank size and business model; and (v) to maintain a unified approach among the regulators.
In 2022, the Bank, like all Illinois-chartered banks, became subject to the state level CRA standards, following passage of the Illinois CRA. This means that, in addition to the federal CRA review, the Bank will be reviewed by the DFPR to assess the Bank’s record of meeting the credit needs of its communities. Like the potential impact under the federal CRA, applications for additional acquisitions or activities would be affected by the evaluation of the Bank’s effectiveness in meeting its Illinois CRA requirements.
Anti-Money Laundering/Sanctions. The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) is the common name for a series of laws and regulations enacted in the United States to combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism. They are designed to deny terrorists and criminals the ability to obtain access to the U.S. financial system and haves significant implications for FDIC-insured institutions, brokers, dealers and other businesses involved in the transfer of money. The so-called Anti-Money Laundering/ Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) regime under the BSA provides a foundation to promote financial transparency and deter and detect those who seek to misuse the U.S. financial system to launder criminal proceeds, financed terrorist acts or move funds for other illicit purposes The laws require financial services companies to have policies and procedures with respect to measures designed to address: (i) customer identification programs; (ii) money laundering; (iii) terrorist financing; (iv) identifying and reporting suspicious activities and currency transactions; (v) currency crimes; and (vi) cooperation between FDIC-insured institutions and law enforcement authorities. The Bank must also comply with stringent economic and trade sanctions regimes administered and enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
Concentrations in CRE. Concentration risk exists when FDIC-insured institutions deploy too many assets to any one industry or segment. A concentration in commercial real estate is one example of regulatory concern, which has been subject to additional scrutiny by federal banking agencies as well as the SEC (for publicly-traded banking organizations) in recent years. Interagency CRE Guidance provides supervisory criteria, including the following numerical indicators, to assist bank examiners in identifying banks with potentially significant CRE loan concentrations that may warrant greater supervisory scrutiny:
(i) commercial real estate loans exceeding 300% of capital and increasing 50% or more in the preceding three years; or
(ii) construction and land development loans exceeding 100% of capital. The CRE Guidance does not limit banks’ levels of CRE lending activities, but rather guides institutions in developing risk management practices and levels of capital that are commensurate with the level and nature of their CRE concentrations. On December 18, 2015, and again in recent years, the federal banking agencies issued statements to reinforce prudent risk-management practices related to CRE lending, having observed substantial growth in many CRE asset and lending markets, increased competitive pressures, rising CRE concentrations in banks, and an easing of CRE underwriting standards. The federal banking agencies also have reminded FDIC-insured institutions to maintain underwriting discipline and exercise prudent risk-management practices to identify, measure, monitor, and manage the risks arising from CRE lending. In addition, FDIC-insured institutions must maintain capital commensurate with the level and nature of their CRE concentration risk. As of December 31, 2024, the Bank did not exceed these guidelines.
Consumer Financial Services. The historical structure of federal consumer protection regulation applicable to all providers of consumer financial products and services changed significantly on July 21, 2011, when the CFPB commenced operations to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws. The CFPB has broad rule making authority for a wide range of consumer protection laws that apply to all providers of consumer products and services, including the Bank, as well as the authority to prohibit “unfair, deceptive or abusive” acts and practices. The CFPB has examination and enforcement authority over providers with more than $10 billion in assets. FDIC-insured institutions with $10 billion or less in assets, like the Bank, continue to be examined by their applicable primary federal banking regulators.
Because abuses in connection with residential mortgages were a significant factor contributing to the global financial crisis, many rules issued by the CFPB, as required by the Dodd-Frank Act, addressed mortgage and mortgage-related products,
their underwriting, origination, servicing and sales. The Dodd-Frank Act significantly expanded underwriting requirements applicable to loans secured by 1-4 family residential real property and augmented federal law combating predatory lending practices. In addition to numerous disclosure requirements, the Dodd-Frank Act imposed new standards for mortgage loan originations on all lenders, including banks and savings associations, in an effort to strongly encourage lenders to verify a borrower’s ability to repay, while also establishing a presumption of compliance for certain “qualified mortgages.”
The current acting leader of the CFPB has indicated that the CFPB will adopt a deregulatory approach, and the CFPB has recently announced that it plans to roll back certain rulemakings adopted over the last several years. The U.S. Congress is also pursuing Congressional Review Act resolutions or otherwise taking steps to overturn certain recent CFPB rulemaking. While some of the CPFB’s recent rulemakings did not impact the Bank directly, the CFPB’s retreat from the aggressive approach to regulation (and supervision, where applicable) that it has previously adopted may benefit the operations of the Bank.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS
The material risks that management believes affect the Company are described below. You should carefully consider the risks, together with all of the information included herein. The risks described below are not the only risks the Company faces. Additional risks not presently known or that the Company believes are immaterial also may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.
Macroeconomic and Credit Risks
A decline in general business and economic conditions and any regulatory responses to such conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and growth prospects.
Our business and operations are sensitive to business and economic conditions in the United States generally and the state of Illinois and the St. Louis metropolitan area in particular. If the national, regional and local economies experience worsening economic conditions, including as a result of recent changes in U.S. trade policy and U.S. and global tariff rates, our growth and profitability could be harmed. Weak economic conditions are characterized by, among other indicators, elevated levels of unemployment, fluctuations in debt and equity capital markets, increased delinquencies on mortgage, commercial and consumer loans, residential and commercial real estate price declines, and lower home sales and commercial activity. All of these factors are generally detrimental to our business. Our business is significantly affected by monetary and other regulatory policies of the U.S. federal government, its agencies and government-sponsored entities. Changes in any of these policies are influenced by macroeconomic conditions and other factors that are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and growth prospects.
If we do not effectively manage our credit risk, we may experience increased levels of nonperforming loans, charge-offs and delinquencies, which could require increases in our provision for credit losses on loans.
There are risks inherent in making any loan, including risks inherent in dealing with individual borrowers, risks of nonpayment, risks resulting from uncertainties as to the future value of collateral and cash flows available to service debt, and risks resulting from changes in economic and market conditions. We cannot guarantee that our credit underwriting and monitoring procedures will reduce these credit risks, and they cannot be expected to completely eliminate our credit risks. If the overall economic climate in the United States generally, or our market areas specifically, declines, our borrowers may experience difficulties in repaying their loans, and the level of nonperforming loans, charge-offs and delinquencies could rise and require further increases in the provision for credit losses on loans, which would cause our net income, return on equity and capital to decrease. We maintain our allowance for credit losses on loans at a level that management considers adequate to absorb expected credit losses on loans based on an analysis of our portfolio and market environment.
As of December 31, 2024, our allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of total loans was 2.15% and as a percentage of total nonperforming loans was 73.69%. Although management believed, as of such date, that the allowance for credit losses on loans was adequate to absorb losses on any existing loans that may become uncollectible, we may be required to take additional provisions for credit losses on loans in the future to further supplement the allowance for credit losses on loans, either due to management’s decision to do so or because our banking regulators require us to do so. Our bank regulatory agencies will periodica
lly review our allowance for credit losses on loans and the value attributed to nonaccrual loans or to real estate acquired through foreclosure and may require us to adjust our determination of the value for these items. These adjustments may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
A significant portion of our loan portfolio is secured by real estate, the value and liquidity of which can be negatively affected by economic conditions and environmental issues.
At December 31, 2024, approximately 63.3% of our loan portfolio was comprised of loans with real estate as a primary or secondary component of collateral. As a result, adverse developments affecting real estate values in our market areas could increase the credit risk associated with our real estate loan portfolio. The market value of real estate can fluctuate significantly in a short period of time as a result of interest rate levels and by market conditions in the area in which the real estate is located. Adverse changes affecting real estate values and the liquidity of real estate in one or more of our markets could increase the credit risk associated with our loan portfolio, significantly impair the value of property pledged as collateral on loans and affect our ability to sell the collateral upon foreclosure without a loss or additional losses, which could result in losses that would adversely affect profitability. Such declines and losses could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and growth prospects.
In addition, if hazardous or toxic substances are found on properties pledged as collateral, the value of the real estate could be impaired. If we foreclose on and take title to such properties, we may be liable for remediation costs, as well as for personal injury and property damage. Environmental laws may require us to incur substantial expenses to address unknown liabilities and may materially reduce the affected property’s value or limit our ability to use or sell the affected property.
Many of our loans are to commercial borrowers, which have a higher degree of risk than other types of loans.
Commercial loans represented 82.3% of our total loan portfolio at December 31, 2024. Commercial loans are often larger and involve greater risks than other types of lending. Because payments on such loans often depend on the successful operation or development of the property or business involved, repayment of such loans is often more sensitive than other types of loans to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the general business climate and economy. Accordingly, a downturn in the real estate market and a challenging business and economic environment may increase our risk related to commercial loans, particularly commercial real estate loans. Unlike residential mortgage loans, which generally are made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from their employment and other income and which are secured by real property, the value of which tends to be more easily ascertainable, commercial loans typically are made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the commercial venture. Our operating commercial loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flow of the borrower and secondarily on the collateral underlying the loans. Most often, this collateral consists of accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Inventory and equipment may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business. If the cash flow from business operations is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired. Due to the larger average size of each commercial loan as compared with other loans such as residential loans, as well as collateral that is generally less readily-marketable, losses incurred on even a small number of commercial loans could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
The small to midsized businesses that we lend to may have fewer resources to weather adverse business developments, which may impair a borrower’s ability to repay a loan, and such impairment could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We target our business development and marketing strategy primarily to serve the banking and financial services needs of small to midsized businesses. These businesses generally have fewer financial resources in terms of capital or borrowing capacity than larger entities, frequently have smaller market shares than their competition, may be more vulnerable to economic downturns, often need substantial additional capital to expand or compete and may experience substantial volatility in operating results, any of which may impair a borrower’s ability to repay a loan. In addition, the success of a small or midsized business often depends on the management talents and efforts of one or two people or a small group of people, and the death, disability or resignation of one or more of these people could have a material adverse impact on the business and its ability to repay its loan. If general economic conditions negatively impact the markets in which we operate and small to midsized businesses are adversely affected or our borrowers are otherwise affected by adverse business developments, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
In addition, we have provided an aggregate of $230.2 million of financing to the two third-party buyers that purchased participation interests in consumer loans that were originated through GreenSky's consumer loan origination platform. The ability of each of these buyers to repay the obligations to us will depend significantly on the performance of the consumer loans.
Real estate construction loans are based upon estimates of costs and values associated with the complete project. These estimates may be inaccurate, and we may be exposed to significant losses on loans for these projects.
Real estate construction loans comprised approximately 5.8% of our total loan portfolio as of December 31, 2024, and such lending involves additional risks because funds are advanced upon the security of the project, which is of uncertain value prior to its completion, and costs may exceed realizable values in declining real estate markets. Because of the uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs and the realizable market value of the completed project and the effects of governmental regulation of real property, it is relatively difficult to evaluate accurately the total funds required to complete a project and the related loan-to-value ratio. As a result, construction loans often involve the disbursement of substantial funds with repayment dependent, in part, on the success of the ultimate project and the ability of the borrower to sell or lease the property, rather than the ability of the borrower or guarantor to repay principal and interest. If our appraisal of the value of the completed project proves to be overstated or market values or rental rates decline, we may have inadequate security for the repayment of the loan upon completion of construction of the project. If we are forced to foreclose on a project prior to or at completion due to a default, we may not be able to recover all of the unpaid balance of, and accrued interest on, the loan as well as related foreclosure and holding costs. In addition, we may be required to fund additional amounts to complete the project and may have to hold the property for an unspecified period of time while we attempt to dispose of it.
Real estate market volatility and future changes in our disposition strategies could result in net proceeds that differ significantly from our other real estate owned fair value appraisals.
As of December 31, 2024, we had $4.9 million of other real estate owned. Our other real estate owned portfolio consists of properties that we obtained through foreclosure or through an in-substance foreclosure in satisfaction of loans. Properties in our other real estate owned portfolio are recorded at the lower of the recorded investment in the loans for which the properties previously served as collateral or the “fair value,” which represents the estimated sales price of the properties on the date acquired less estimated selling costs.
In response to market conditions and other economic factors, we may utilize alternative sale strategies other than orderly disposition, such as immediate liquidation sales. In this event, as a result of the significant judgments required in estimating fair value and the variables involved in different methods of disposition, the net proceeds realized from such sales transactions could differ significantly from appraisals, comparable sales and other estimates used to determine the fair value of our other real estate owned properties, potentially resulting in additional losses.
Nonperforming assets take significant time to resolve and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition, and could result in further losses in the future.
Our nonperforming assets adversely affect our net income in various ways. We do not record interest income on nonaccrual loans or other real estate owned, thereby adversely affecting our net income and returns on assets and equity, increasing our loan administration costs and adversely affecting our efficiency ratio. When we take collateral in foreclosure and similar proceedings, we are required to mark the collateral to its then-fair market value, which may result in a loss. These nonperforming loans and other real estate owned also increase our risk profile and the level of capital our regulators believe is appropriate for us to maintain in light of such risks. The resolution of nonperforming assets requires significant time commitments from management and can be detrimental to the performance of their other responsibilities. If we experience increases in nonperforming loans and nonperforming assets, our net interest income may be negatively impacted and our loan administration costs could increase, each of which could have an adverse effect on our net income and related ratios, such as return on assets and equity.
Operational, Strategic and Reputational Risks
The occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches or failures of our information security controls or cybersecurity-related incidents could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
As a bank, we are susceptible to fraudulent activity, information security breaches and cybersecurity-related incidents that may be committed against us or our clients, which may result in financial losses or increased costs to us or our clients, disclosure or misuse of our information or our client information, misappropriation of assets, privacy breaches against our clients, litigation or damage to our reputation. Such fraudulent activity may take many forms, including check fraud, electronic fraud, wire fraud, phishing, social engineering and other dishonest acts. Information security breaches and cybersecurity-related incidents may include fraudulent or unauthorized access to systems used by us or our clients, denial or degradation of service attacks and malware or other cyber-attacks. See Item 1C - "Cybersecurity" appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
In recent periods, there continues to be a rise in electronic fraudulent activity, security breaches and cyber-attacks within the financial services industry, especially in the commercial banking sector due to cyber criminals targeting commercial bank accounts. Moreover, in recent periods, several large corporations, including financial institutions and retail companies, have suffered major data breaches, in some cases exposing not only confidential and proprietary corporate information, but also sensitive financial and other personal information of their customers and employees and subjecting them to potential fraudulent activity. Some of our clients may have been affected by these breaches, which could increase their risks of identity theft and other fraudulent activity that could involve their accounts with us.
Information pertaining to us and our clients is maintained, and transactions are executed, on networks and systems maintained by us and certain third party partners, such as our online banking, mobile banking or accounting systems. The secure maintenance and transmission of confidential information, as well as execution of transactions over these systems, are essential to protect us and our clients against fraud and security breaches and to maintain the confidence of our clients. Breaches of information security also may occur through intentional or unintentional acts by those having access to our systems or the confidential information of our clients, including employees. In addition, increases in criminal activity levels and sophistication, advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries, vulnerabilities in third party technologies (including browsers and operating systems) or other developments could result in a compromise or breach of the technology, processes and controls that we use to prevent fraudulent transactions and to protect data about us, our clients and underlying transactions, as well as the technology used by our clients to access our systems. Our third party partners’ inability to anticipate, or failure to adequately mitigate, breaches of security could result in a number of negative events, including losses to us or our clients, loss of business or clients, damage to our reputation, the incurrence of additional expenses, disruption to our business, additional regulatory scrutiny or penalties or our exposure to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
We depend on information technology and telecommunications systems of third parties, and any systems failures, interruptions or data breaches involving these systems could adversely affect our operations and financial condition.
Our business is highly dependent on the successful and uninterrupted functioning of our information technology and telecommunications systems, third party servicers, accounting systems, mobile and online banking platforms and financial intermediaries. We outsource to third parties many of our major systems, such as data processing and mobile and online banking. The failure of these systems, or the termination of a third party software license or service agreement on which any of these systems is based, could interrupt our operations. Because our information technology and telecommunications systems interface with and depend on third party systems, we could experience service denials if demand for such services exceeds capacity or such third party systems fail or experience interruptions. A system failure or service denial could result in a deterioration of our ability to process loans, gather deposits or provide customer service, compromise our ability to operate effectively, result in potential noncompliance with applicable laws or regulations, damage our reputation, result in a loss of customer business or subject us to regulatory action and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. In addition, failures of third parties to comply with applicable laws and regulations, or fraud or misconduct on the part of employees of any of these third parties, could disrupt our operations or adversely affect our reputation.
It may be difficult for us to replace some of our third party vendors, particularly vendors providing our core banking and information services, in a timely manner if they are unwilling or unable to provide us with these services in the future for any reason, and even if we are able to replace them, it may be at higher cost or result in the loss of customers. Any such events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
Our operations rely heavily on the secure processing, storage and transmission of information and the monitoring of a large number of transactions on a minute-by-minute basis, and even a short interruption in service could have significant consequences. We also interact with and rely on retailers, for whom we process transactions, as well as financial counterparties and regulators. Each of these third parties may be targets of the same types of fraudulent activity, computer break-ins and other cyber security breaches described above, and the cyber security measures that they maintain to mitigate the risk of such activity may be different than our own and may be inadequate.
As a result of financial entities and technology systems becoming more interdependent and complex, a cyber incident, information breach or loss, or technology failure that compromises the systems or data of one or more financial entities could have a material impact on counterparties or other market participants, including ourselves. As a result of the foregoing, our ability to conduct business may be adversely affected by any significant disruptions to us or to third parties with whom we interact.
We are subject to certain operational risks, including, but not limited to, customer or employee fraud and data processing system failures and errors.
Employee errors and employee and customer misconduct could subject us to financial losses or regulatory sanctions and seriously harm our reputation. Misconduct by our employees could include hiding unauthorized activities from us, improper or unauthorized activities on behalf of our customers or improper use of confidential information. It is not always possible to prevent employee errors and misconduct, and the precautions we take to prevent and detect this activity may not be effective in all cases. Employee errors could also subject us to financial claims for negligence.
We maintain a system of internal controls and insurance coverage to mitigate against operational risks, including data processing system failures and errors and customer or employee fraud. However, it is possible that these protections may not be sufficient to eliminate the significant and growing risks in this area, including risks relating to the use of artificial intelligence in fraud schemes. If our internal controls fail to prevent or detect an occurrence, or if any resulting loss is not insured or exceeds applicable insurance limits, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Any acquisitions we may engage in could expose us to financial, execution and operational risks that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and growth prospects.
Any acquisition transactions we engage in could require us to use a substantial amount of cash, or other liquid assets and/or incur debt. There are risks associated with acquisitions, including the following:
•We may incur time and expense associated with evaluating potential acquisitions and negotiating potential transactions, resulting in management’s attention being diverted from the operation of our existing business.
•We could be exposed to potential asset and credit quality risks and unknown or contingent liabilities of the banks or businesses we acquire. If these issues or liabilities were to exceed our estimates, our earnings, capital and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.
•The acquisition of other entities generally requires integration of systems, procedures and personnel of the acquired entity. This integration process is complicated and time consuming and can also be disruptive to the customers and employees of the acquired business and our business. If the integration process is not conducted successfully, we may not realize the anticipated economic benefits of acquisitions within the expected time frame, or ever, and we may lose customers or employees of the acquired business. We may also experience greater than anticipated customer losses even if the integration process is successful.
•To finance an acquisition, we may borrow funds or pursue other forms of financing, such as issuing voting and/or non-voting common stock or preferred stock, which may have high dividend rights or may be highly dilutive to holders of our common stock, thereby increasing our leverage and diminishing our liquidity.
•We may be unsuccessful in realizing the anticipated benefits from acquisitions. For example, we may not be successful in realizing anticipated cost savings. We also may not be successful in preventing disruptions in service to existing customer relationships of the acquired institution, which could lead to a loss in revenues.
In addition to the foregoing, we may face additional risks in acquisitions to the extent we acquire new lines of business or new products, or enter new geographic areas, in which we have little or no current experience, especially if we lose key employees of the acquired operations. If we choose to engage in an acquisition transaction, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in overcoming these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with acquisitions. Our inability to overcome risks associated with acquisitions could have an adverse effect on our ability to grow our business and profitability.
We may not be able to continue growing our business, particularly if we cannot increase loans through organic loan growth.
While we intend to continue to grow our business through organic loan growth, certain of our market areas are comprised of mature, rural communities with limited population growth, which presents a challenging market for loan origination. Our growth will also depend upon our ability to attract deposits and to identify favorable loan and investment opportunities and on whether we can continue to fund growth while maintaining cost controls and asset quality, as well on other factors beyond our control, such as national, regional and local economic conditions and interest rate trends.
We are highly dependent on our management team, and the loss of our senior executive officers or other key employees could harm our ability to implement our strategic plan, impair our relationships with customers and adversely affect our business, results of operations and growth prospects.
Our success is dependent, to a large degree, upon the continued service and skills of our existing executive management team, particularly Mr. Jeffrey G. Ludwig, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Eric T. Lemke, our Chief Financial Officer.
Our business and growth strategies are built primarily upon our ability to retain employees with experience and business relationships within their respective market areas. The loss of Mr. Ludwig, Mr. Lemke or any of our other key personnel could have an adverse impact on our business and growth because of their skills, years of industry experience, knowledge of our market areas and the difficulty of finding qualified replacement personnel, particularly in light of the fact that we are not headquartered in a major metropolitan area. In addition, although we have non-competition agreements with each of our executive officers and with several others of our senior personnel, we do not have any such agreements with other employees who are important to our business, and in any event the enforceability of non-competition agreements varies across the states in which we do business. While our mortgage originators, loan officers and wealth management professionals are generally subject to non-solicitation provisions as part of their employment, our ability to enforce such agreements may not fully mitigate the injury to our business from the breach of such agreements, as such employees could leave us and immediately begin soliciting our customers. The departure of any of our personnel who are not subject to enforceable non-competition agreements could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and growth prospects.
We may be liable to purchasers of mortgage loans and mortgage servicing rights, including as a result of any breach of representations and warranties we make to the purchasers.
When we sell or securitize mortgage loans in the ordinary course of business, we are required to make certain representations and warranties to the purchaser about the mortgage loans and the manner in which they were originated. Under these agreements, we may be required to repurchase mortgage loans if we have breached any of these representations or warranties, in which case we may record a loss. In addition, if repurchase and indemnity demands increase on loans that we sell from our portfolios, our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. In addition, we have sold residential mortgage servicing rights to third parties pursuant to customary purchase agreements, under which we could be required to indemnify the purchasers for losses resulting from pre-closing servicing errors or breaches of our representations and warranties, which could affect our results of operations.
Our ability to maintain our reputation is critical to the success of our business, and the failure to do so may materially adversely affect our business and the value of our stock.
We are a community bank, and our reputation is one of the most valuable components of our business. Similarly, each of our subsidiaries operate in niche markets where reputation is critically important. As such, we strive to conduct our business in a manner that enhances our reputation. This is done, in part, by recruiting, hiring and retaining employees who share our core values of being an integral part of the communities we serve, delivering superior service to our customers and caring about our customers and associates. If our reputation is negatively affected, by the actions of our employees or otherwise, our business and, therefore, our operating results and the value of our stock may be materially adversely affected.
We have a continuing need for technological change, and we may not have the resources to effectively implement new technology or we may experience operational challenges when implementing new technology.
The financial services industry is undergoing rapid technological changes with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services, such as those using artificial intelligence. In addition to better serving customers, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to reduce costs. Our future success will depend in part upon our ability to address the needs of our customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands for convenience as well as to create additional efficiencies in our operations as we continue to grow and expand our market area. We may experience operational challenges as we implement these new technology enhancements, or seek to implement them across all of our offices and business units, which could result in us not fully realizing the anticipated benefits from such new technology or require us to incur significant costs to remedy any such challenges in a timely manner.
Many of our larger competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements. As a result, they may be able to offer additional or superior products to those that we will be able to offer, which would put us at a competitive disadvantage. Accordingly, a risk exists that we will not be able to effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing such products and services to our customers.
We depend on the accuracy and completeness of information provided by customers and counterparties.
In deciding whether to extend credit or enter into other transactions with customers and counterparties, we may rely on information furnished to us by or on behalf of customers and counterparties, including financial statements and other financial information. We also may rely on representations of customers and counterparties as to the accuracy and completeness of that information. In deciding whether to extend credit, we may rely upon our customers’ representations that their financial statements conform to GAAP and present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the customer. We also may rely on customer representations and certifications, or other audit or accountants’ reports,
with respect to the business and financial condition of our clients. Our financial condition, results of operations, financial reporting and reputation could be negatively affected if we rely on materially misleading, false, inaccurate or fraudulent information.
We face strong competition from financial services companies and other companies that offer banking, mortgage, leasing, and wealth management services, which could harm our business.
Our operations consist of offering banking and mortgage services, and we also offer trust, wealth management and leasing services to generate noninterest income. Many of our competitors offer the same, or a wider variety of, banking and related financial services within our market areas. These competitors include national banks, regional banks and other community banks. We also face competition from many other types of financial institutions, including savings and loan institutions, finance companies, private credit funds, brokerage firms, insurance companies, credit unions, mortgage banks and other financial intermediaries. In addition, a number of out-of-state financial intermediaries have opened production offices or otherwise solicit deposits in our market areas. Additionally, we face growing competition from so-called “online businesses” with few or no physical locations, including online banks, lenders and consumer and commercial lending platforms, and FinTech companies, as well as automated retirement and investment service providers. Increased competition in our markets may result in reduced loans, deposits and commissions and brokers’ fees, as well as reduced net interest margin and profitability. Ultimately, we may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors. If we are unable to attract and retain banking, mortgage, leasing and wealth management customers, we may be unable to continue to grow our business and our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Consumers and businesses are increasingly using non-banks to complete their financial transactions, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Technology and other changes are allowing consumers and businesses to complete financial transactions that historically have involved banks through alternative methods. For example, the wide acceptance of internet-based commerce has resulted in a number of alternative payment processing systems and lending platforms in which banks play only minor roles. Customers can now maintain funds in prepaid debit cards or digital currencies, and pay bills and transfer funds directly without the direct assistance of banks. The diminishing role of banks as financial intermediaries has resulted and could continue to result in the loss of fee income, as well as the loss of customer deposits and the related income generated from those deposits. The loss of these revenue streams and the potential loss of lower cost deposits as a source of funds could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The development of our BaaS platform may expose us to liability for compliance violations by BaaS partners or fall short of its targeted impact on our financial performance.
During 2022, we invested in the development of a BaaS platform that will enable us to enter into partnerships with financial technology companies through which we will provide banking services to the customers of these companies. We believe that these partnerships will contribute to loan production, deposit gathering, and fee income generation in future years. We intend to be very selective in our approach to developing BaaS partnerships to ensure that any partners that are added meet our high standards for risk management. However, we are subject to compliance and regulatory risk if partners do not follow our servicing policies, lending laws, and regulations. Our bank regulators may hold us responsible for the activities of our BaaS partners with respect to the marketing or administration of their programs, which may result in increased compliance costs for us or potentially compliance violations as a result of BaaS partner activities. In addition, we may not find enough suitable partnerships for the BaaS platform to have a meaningful impact on our overall financial performance.
Legal, Accounting and Compliance Risks
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which material weaknesses could adversely affect our ability to report our results of operations and financial condition accurately and in a timely manner.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our management is likewise required, on a quarterly basis, to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and to disclose any changes and material weaknesses identified through such evaluation in those internal controls. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
As described elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over the risk assessment process for identifying whether third-party loan origination and servicing contracts
present unique accounting considerations that should be further evaluated and the financial reporting related to our accounting and financial reporting of third party lending and servicing arrangements. See Item 9A — Controls and Procedures. As a result of these material weaknesses, our independent registered public accounting firm concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. In addition, we restated our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the interim quarterly periods in 2024 and 2023 Any failure to maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting could adversely impact our ability to report our financial position and results from operations on a timely and accurate basis. We can give no assurance that our plans to remediate these material weaknesses will be successful or prevent any future material weaknesses, or that further restatements of financial results will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or circumvention of these controls. In addition, our controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or errors, which could affect the fair presentation of our consolidated financial statements.
We may incur impairment charges to the goodwill that we recorded in connection with prior business acquisitions, which would negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Goodwill represents the amount by which the cost of an acquisition exceeded the fair value of net assets we acquired in connection with the purchase. We review goodwill for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset might be impaired. We determine impairment by comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment charge is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Any such adjustments are reflected in our results of operations in the periods in which they become known.
For example, during the first quarter of 2025, Management determined that a triggering event had occurred at its Banking reporting unit as a result of further deteriorated credit quality coupled with the trends in the stock price. The Company performed a quantitative impairment test on its Banking reporting unit as of March 31, 2025, and engaged a third-party service provider to assist Management with the determination of the fair value. The resulting calculation indicated that the carrying amount exceeded the fair value of the Company's Banking reporting unit. As a result of the assessment, the Company expects to recognize goodwill impairment expense between $135.0 million and $154.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. This non-cash impairment expense did not impact our regulatory capital ratios, tangible common equity ratio nor our liquidity position, and will not result in future cash expenditures. There can be no assurance that our future evaluations of our existing goodwill or goodwill we may acquire in the future will not result in additional findings of impairment and related charges, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our risk management framework may not be effective in mitigating risks and/or losses to us.
Our risk management framework is comprised of various processes, systems and strategies, and is designed to manage the types of risk to which we are subject, including, among others, credit, market, liquidity, interest rate and compliance. Our framework also includes financial or other modeling methodologies that involve management assumptions and judgment. Our risk management framework may not be effective under all circumstances or may not adequately mitigate risk or loss to us. If our framework is not effective, we could suffer unexpected losses and our business, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects could be materially and adversely affected. We may also be subject to potentially adverse regulatory consequences.
We are and may become involved from time to time in suits, legal proceedings, information-gathering requests, investigations and proceedings by governmental and self-regulatory agencies that may lead to adverse consequences.
Many aspects of our business and operations involve the risk of legal liability, and in some cases we or our subsidiaries have been named or threatened to be named as defendants in various lawsuits arising from our business activities. For example, some of the services we provide, such as wealth management services, require us to act as fiduciaries for our customers and others. From time to time, third parties make claims and take legal action against us pertaining to the performance of our fiduciary responsibilities. In addition, companies in our industry are frequently the subject of governmental and self-regulatory agency information-gathering requests, reviews, investigations and proceedings. We believe we face an elevated risk of the foregoing proceedings in connection with the matters leading us to restate our financial statements and in connection with LendingPoint's 2023 system conversion and any potential effects on certain loans, as discussed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The results of such proceedings could lead to significant civil or criminal penalties, including monetary penalties, damages, adverse judgments, settlements, fines, injunctions, restrictions on the way in which we conduct our business, or
reputational harm. We are not able to estimate the likelihood of such developments or the likely magnitude or significance of any liability or other outcomes of any such proceedings.
Although we establish accruals for legal proceedings when information related to the loss contingencies represented by those matters indicates both that a loss is probable and that the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, we do not have accruals for all legal proceedings where we face a risk of loss. In addition, due to the inherent subjectivity of the assessments and unpredictability of the outcome of legal proceedings, amounts accrued may not represent the ultimate loss to us from the legal proceedings in question. Accordingly, our ultimate losses may be higher, and possibly significantly so, than the amounts accrued for legal loss contingencies, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Legislative and regulatory actions taken now or in the future may increase our costs and impact our business, governance structure, financial condition or results of operations.
Compliance with applicable bank regulations by us and our third party vendors has resulted, and may continue to result, in additional operating and compliance costs and restrictions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. In addition, new proposals for legislation may continue to be introduced in the U.S. Congress that could further substantially change regulation of the bank and non-bank financial services industries and impose restrictions on the operations and general ability of firms within the industry to conduct business consistent with historical practices. Federal and state regulatory agencies also frequently adopt changes to their regulations or change the manner in which existing regulations are applied. Legislation and regulations may be impacted by the political ideologies of the executive branches of the U.S. government as well as the heads of regulatory and administrative agencies, which may change as a result of elections. Certain aspects of current or proposed regulatory or legislative changes to laws applicable to the financial industry, if enacted or adopted, may impact the profitability of our business activities, require more oversight or change certain of our business practices, including the ability to offer new products, obtain financing, attract deposits, make loans and achieve satisfactory interest spreads and could expose us to additional costs, including increased compliance costs. These changes also may require us to invest significant management attention and resources to make any necessary changes to operations to comply and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to stringent capital requirements, and failure to comply with these requirements may impact dividend payments and limit our activities.
As a result of the implementation of the Basel III Rule, we are required to meet minimum capital requirements. The failure to meet applicable regulatory capital requirements of the Basel III Rule could result in one or more of our regulators placing limitations or conditions on our activities, including our growth initiatives, or restricting the commencement of new activities, and could affect customer and investor confidence, our costs of funds and FDIC insurance costs, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock, our ability to make acquisitions, and our business, results of operations and financial conditions, generally. In addition, banking institutions that do not maintain a capital conservation buffer, comprised of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, of 2.5% above the regulatory minimum capital requirements face constraints on the payment of dividends, stock repurchases and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers based on the amount of the shortfall, unless prior regulatory approval is obtained. Accordingly, if the Bank or the Company fails to maintain the applicable minimum capital ratios and the capital conservation buffer, distributions by the Bank to the Company, or dividends or stock repurchases by the Company, may be prohibited or limited.
Federal and state regulators periodically examine our business, and we may be required to remediate adverse examination findings.
The Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the DFPR periodically examine our business, including our compliance with laws and regulations. If, as a result of an examination, a banking agency were to determine that our financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity or other aspects of any of our operations had become unsatisfactory, or that we were in violation of any law or regulation, they may take a number of different remedial actions as they deem appropriate. These actions include the power to enjoin “unsafe or unsound” practices, to require affirmative action to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced, to direct an increase in our capital, to restrict our growth, to assess civil money penalties, to fine or remove officers and directors and, if it is concluded that such conditions cannot be corrected or there is an imminent risk of loss to depositors, to terminate our deposit insurance and place us into receivership or conservatorship. Any regulatory action against us could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We face a risk of noncompliance and enforcement action with the Bank Secrecy Act and other anti-money laundering statutes and regulations.
The Bank Secrecy Act, the USA PATRIOT Act and other laws and regulations require financial institutions, among other duties, to institute and maintain an effective anti-money laundering program and to file reports such as suspicious activity reports and currency transaction reports. We are required to comply with these and other anti-money laundering requirements. The federal banking agencies and Financial Crimes Enforcement Network are authorized to impose significant civil money penalties for violations of those requirements and have engaged in coordinated enforcement efforts against banks and other financial services providers with the U.S. Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration and Internal Revenue Service. We are also subject to increased scrutiny of compliance with the rules enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control. If our policies, procedures and systems are deemed deficient, including those of our third party vendors, we could be subject to liability, including fines and regulatory actions, which may include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends and the necessity to obtain regulatory approvals to proceed with certain aspects of our business plan, including our acquisition plans.
Failure to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could also have serious reputational consequences for us. Any of these results could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
We are subject to numerous laws designed to protect consumers, including the Community Reinvestment Act and fair lending laws, and failure to comply with these laws could lead to a wide variety of sanctions.
The CRA, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Housing Act and other fair lending laws and regulations prohibit discriminatory lending practices by financial institutions. The U.S. Department of Justice, federal banking agencies, and other federal agencies are responsible for enforcing these laws and regulations. A challenge to an institution’s compliance with fair lending laws and regulations could result in a wide variety of sanctions, including damages and civil money penalties, injunctive relief, restrictions on mergers and acquisitions activity, restrictions on expansion, and restrictions on entering new business lines. Private parties may also challenge an institution’s performance under fair lending laws in private class action litigation. Such actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
The Federal Reserve may require us to commit capital resources to support the Bank.
As a matter of policy, the Federal Reserve expects a bank holding company to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to a subsidiary bank and to commit resources to support such subsidiary bank. The Dodd-Frank Act codified the Federal Reserve’s policy on serving as a source of financial strength. Under the “source of strength” doctrine, the Federal Reserve may require a bank holding company to make capital injections into a troubled subsidiary bank and may charge the bank holding company with engaging in unsafe and unsound practices for failure to commit resources to a subsidiary bank. A capital injection may be required at times when the holding company may not have the resources to provide it and therefore may be required to borrow the funds or raise capital. Any loans by a holding company to its subsidiary banks are subordinate in right of payment to deposits and to certain other indebtedness of such subsidiary bank. In the event of a bank holding company’s bankruptcy, the bankruptcy trustee will assume any commitment by the holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank. Moreover, bankruptcy law provides that claims based on any such commitment will be entitled to a priority of payment over the claims of the institution’s general unsecured creditors, including the holders of its note obligations. Thus, any borrowing that must be done by the Company to make a required capital injection becomes more difficult and expensive and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The financial services industry, as well as the broader economy, may be subject to new legislation, regulation, and government policy.
At this time, it is difficult to predict the legislative and regulatory changes that will result from having a new President of the United States. The new administration and Congress may cause broad economic changes due to changes in governing ideology and governing style, included as a result of implementation of proposed policies regarding tariffs, mass deportations and tax regulations. New appointments to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve could affect monetary policy and interest rates, and changes in fiscal policy could affect broader patterns of trade and economic growth. Future legislation, regulation, and government policy could affect the banking industry as a whole, including our business and results of operations, in ways that are difficult to predict. In addition, our results of operations also could be adversely affected by changes in the way in which existing statutes and regulations are interpreted or applied by courts and government agencies.
Market and Interest Rate Risks
Monetary policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition to being affected by general economic conditions, our earnings, capital ratios and growth are affected by the policies of the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve reduced the federal funds rate several times in 2024 based upon improving economic conditions. These recent reductions have resulted in decreases in asset yields and funding costs. Future rate reductions of the Federal Reserve could continue to have positive effects on our business, by increasing loan demand, decreasing our costs of deposits and other sources of funding, improving the value of our securities portfolio, and increasing the earnings of our wealth management business. Lower interest rates can also positively affect our customers’ businesses and financial condition, and the value of collateral securing loans in our portfolio.
Fluctuations in interest rates may reduce net interest income and otherwise negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations.
Shifts in short-term interest rates may reduce net interest income, which is the principal component of our earnings. Net interest income is the difference between the amounts received by us on our interest-earning assets and the interest paid by us on our interest-bearing liabilities. When interest rates rise, the rate of interest we pay on our liabilities, such as deposits, generally rises more quickly than the rate of interest that we receive on our interest-bearing assets, such as loans, which may cause our profits to decrease. The impact on earnings is more adverse when the slope of the yield curve flattens, that is, when short-term interest rates increase more than long-term interest rates or when long-term interest rates decrease more than short-term interest rates.
Interest rate increases often result in larger payment requirements for our borrowers, which increases the potential for default. At the same time, the marketability of the underlying property may be adversely affected by any reduced demand resulting from higher interest rates. In a declining interest rate environment, there may be an increase in prepayments on loans as borrowers refinance their mortgages and other indebtedness at lower rates.
Changes in interest rates also can affect the value of loans, securities and other assets. An increase in interest rates that adversely affects the ability of borrowers to pay the principal or interest on loans, or that adversely affects the value of collateral securing those loans, may lead to an increase in nonperforming assets and a reduction of income recognized, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows. Further, when we place a loan on nonaccrual status, we reverse any accrued but unpaid interest receivable, which decreases interest income. Subsequently, we continue to have a cost to fund the loan, which is reflected as interest expense, without any interest income to offset the associated funding expense. Thus, an increase in the amount of nonperforming assets would have an adverse impact on net interest income.
If short-term interest rates remain at low levels for a prolonged period, and assuming longer term interest rates fall, we could experience net interest margin compression as our interest earning assets would continue to reprice downward while our interest-bearing liability rates could fail to decline in tandem. This would have a material adverse effect on our net interest income and our results of operations.
We could recognize losses on securities held in our securities portfolio, particularly if interest rates continue to increase or economic and market conditions deteriorate.
Factors beyond our control can significantly influence the fair value of securities in our portfolio and can cause potential adverse changes to the fair value of these securities. For example, fixed-rate securities acquired by us are generally subject to decreases in market value when interest rates rise. Additional factors include, but are not limited to, rating agency downgrades of the securities or our own analysis of the value of the security, defaults by the issuer or individual mortgagors with respect to the underlying securities, and continued instability in the credit markets. We may be required to record additional credit reserve charges if our investment securities suffer a decline in fair value that has resulted from credit losses or other factors. If we determine that a significant reserve is needed, we would be required to charge against earnings the credit-related portion, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the periods in which the write-offs occur. In addition, we may determine to sell securities in our available-for-sale investment securities portfolio, and any such sale could cause us to realize currently unrealized losses that resulted from the increases in the prevailing interest rates.
Our mortgage banking revenue has been and could continue to be adversely impacted by an elevated interest rate environment.
Mortgage production, especially refinancing activity, is adversely affected by high or rising interest rate environments. Though the Federal Reserve reduced the federal funds rate several times in 2024, should interest rates remain elevated, it could adversely affect our mortgage production levels. Because we sell a substantial portion of the mortgage loans we originate, the
revenue and profitability of our mortgage banking business also depends in large part on our ability to aggregate a high volume of loans and sell them in the secondary market at a gain. Thus, in addition to our dependence on the interest rate environment, we are dependent upon (i) the existence of an active secondary market and (ii) our ability to profitably sell loans or securities into that market. To the extent we are not able to achieve a high level of mortgage production, our revenue and profitability will depend upon our ability to reduce our costs commensurate with the reduction of revenue from our mortgage operations.
Liquidity and Funding Risks
Liquidity risks could affect operations and jeopardize our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Liquidity is essential to our business. An inability to raise funds through deposits, borrowings, the sale of loans and/or investment securities and from other sources could have a substantial negative effect on our liquidity. Our most important source of funds consists of our customer deposits, including escrow deposits held in connection with our commercial mortgage servicing business. Such deposit balances can decrease when customers perceive alternative investments, such as the stock market, as providing a better risk/return tradeoff, or, in connection with our commercial mortgage servicing business, third parties for whom we provide servicing choose to terminate that relationship with us. If customers move money out of bank deposits and into other investments, we could lose a relatively low cost source of funds, which would require us to seek wholesale funding alternatives in order to continue to grow, thereby increasing our funding costs and reducing our net interest income and net income.
Our access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance or capitalize our activities or on terms that are acceptable to us could be impaired by factors that affect us directly or the financial services industry or economy in general, such as disruptions in the financial markets or negative views and expectations about the prospects for the financial services industry.
Any decline in available funding could adversely impact our ability to continue to implement our strategic plan, including originate loans, invest in securities, meet our expenses, pay dividends to our shareholders or to fulfill obligations such as repaying our borrowings or meeting deposit withdrawal demands, any of which could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity, business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may need to raise additional capital in the future, and if we fail to maintain sufficient capital, whether due to losses, an inability to raise additional capital or otherwise, our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, as well as our ability to maintain regulatory compliance, would be adversely affected.
We face significant capital and other regulatory requirements as a financial institution. The Company, on a consolidated basis, and the Bank, on a stand-alone basis, must meet certain regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity. Importantly, regulatory capital requirements could increase from current levels, which could require us to raise additional capital or contract our operations. Our ability to raise additional capital depends on conditions in the capital markets, economic conditions and a number of other factors, including investor perceptions regarding the banking industry, market conditions and governmental activities, and on our financial condition and performance. In addition, as a result of the delayed filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, we will not be eligible to register the offer and sale of our securities using a registration statement on Form S-3 until we have timely filed all periodic reports required under the Exchange Act for at least 12 calendar months, which could negatively affect our ability to raise any additional capital in a timely and efficient manner. We cannot assure you that we will be able to raise additional capital if needed or on terms acceptable to us. If we fail to maintain capital to meet regulatory requirements, our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
We may be adversely affected by the soundness of other financial institutions.
Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions and the perceived strength of our Bank could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services companies are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty, and other relationships. We have exposure to different industries and counterparties, and through transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, including brokers and dealers, commercial banks, investment banks, and other institutional clients. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services companies, or the financial services industry generally, have led to market-wide liquidity problems and deposit volatility, and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. These issues could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. Additionally, if our competitors were extending credit on terms we found to pose excessive risks, or at interest rates which we believed did not warrant the credit exposure, we may not be able to maintain our business volume and could experience deteriorating financial performance.
ITEM 1B – UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 1C – CYBERSECURITY
We rely extensively on various information systems and other electronic resources to operate our business. In addition, nearly all of our customers, service providers and other business partners on whom we depend, including the providers of our online banking, mobile banking and accounting systems, use these systems and their own electronic information systems. Any of these systems can be compromised, including through intentional acts or carelessness by employees, customers and other individuals who are authorized to use them, and by criminals, who often use sophisticated and constantly evolving set of software, tools and strategies to do so. The nature of our business, as a financial services provider, and our relative size, make us and our business partners high-value targets for these bad actors to pursue, and any intrusion into our systems could result in material financial losses and operational problems. See “Operational, Strategic and Reputational Risks.”
Accordingly, we have developed an informational security program and devoted resources for assessing, identifying and managing risks associated with cybersecurity threats, including:
•established a dedicated internal cybersecurity team that is responsible for conducting regular assessments of our information systems, existing controls, vulnerabilities and potential improvements;
•implemented continuous monitoring tools and a third-party Security Operations Center that can detect and respond to cybersecurity threats in real-time;
•perform ongoing due diligence with respect to our third-party service providers, including their cybersecurity practices, and requiring contractual commitments from our service providers to take certain measures to mitigate their cybersecurity risk;
•retain third-party cybersecurity consultants who conduct periodic penetration testing, vulnerability assessments and other procedures to identify potential weaknesses in our systems and processes;
•conduct frequent cybersecurity training and testing for our workforce;
•provide our board of directors with regular updates regarding threat levels, including analyses that demonstrate the overall cybersecurity posture and health of the organization;
•engage in periodic assessments of our cyber resilience with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA);
•conduct scheduled reviews of our Incident Response Plan to assess the responsiveness during a cybersecurity event or Ransomware attack; and
•maintain third party vendor management program, which includes requirements for how our partners transmit, store and use Bank information.
This information security program is a key part of our overall risk management system, which is administered by our Chief Risk Officer and Chief Information Security Officer. The program includes administrative, technical and physical safeguards to help ensure the security, integrity and confidentiality of customer records and information, and prohibit unauthorized access to our critical operating systems. These security and privacy policies and procedures are in effect across all of our businesses and geographic locations.
From time-to-time, we have identified cybersecurity threats and cybersecurity incidents, including with respect to our commercial customers and vendors, that require us to make changes to our processes and implement additional safeguards. While none of these identified threats or incidents have materially affected us, it is possible that future threats and incidents could have a material adverse effect on our business strategy, results of operations and financial condition, even if the threat or incident is promptly identified and countermeasures are implemented. Such events could lead to direct financial loss or require the expenditure of significant amounts to obtain the release of critical data and/or restore our operating systems or those of our customers and/or vendors if the incident was the result of a security breach for which we are held legally responsible.
Our management team is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks we face, including our Chief Information Security Officer. Our Chief Information Security Officer has 20 years of information technology and information security experience, and before joining our Company has held the positions of Chief Technology Officer and Director of IT and Information Security Officer at his prior places of employment.
In addition, our board of directors, as a whole and through its Risk Policy & Compliance Committee (the “Risk Committee”), is responsible for the oversight of risk management. In that role, our board of directors and Risk Committee, with support from the Company’s cybersecurity advisors, are responsible for ensuring that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. To carry out those duties, both our board of directors and the Risk Committee receive quarterly reports from our management team, including from our Chief Risk Officer and our Chief Information Security Officer regarding cybersecurity risks, and the Company’s efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate and remediate any cybersecurity incidents.
ITEM 2 – PROPERTIES
Our corporate headquarters office building is located at 1201 Network Centre Drive, Effingham, Illinois 62401. We own our corporate headquarters office building, which was built in 2011 and also houses our primary operations center. We have additional operations centers located in St. Louis, Missouri and Rockford, Illinois, supporting our banking and wealth management businesses. At December 31, 2024, the Bank operated a total of 53 full-service banking centers, including 42 located in Illinois and 11 located in the St. Louis metropolitan area. Of these facilities, 43 are owned, and 10 are leased from unaffiliated third parties.
We believe that the leases to which we are subject are generally on terms consistent with prevailing market terms. None of the leases are with our directors, officers, beneficial owners of more than 5% of our voting securities or any affiliates of the foregoing. We believe that our facilities are in good condition and are adequate to meet our operating needs for the foreseeable future.
ITEM 3 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which we or any of our subsidiaries is a party or of which any of our property is the subject. However, given the nature, scope and complexity of the extensive legal and regulatory landscape applicable to our business, we, like all banking organizations, are subject to various legal proceedings from time to time, including those referenced in "Note 21 - Commitments, Contingencies and Credit Risk" to our consolidated financial statements.

Overview
Midland States Bancorp, Inc. is a diversified financial holding company headquartered in Effingham, Illinois. Its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Midland States Bank, has branches across Illinois and in Missouri, and provides a full range of commercial and consumer banking products and services, business equipment financing, merchant credit card services, and trust and investment management services and insurance and financial planning services. As of December 31, 2024, we had assets of $7.51 billion, deposits of $6.20 billion and shareholders’ equity of $710.8 million.
Our strategic plan focuses on delivering a superior customer experience through a high-tech, high-touch approach, while remaining committed to core community banking and relationship-driven growth. We continue to enhance our regional franchise approach that serves our core customers with a consistent, high-performance culture rooted in our One Midland values and with a strong foundation in Enterprise Risk Management.
Our principal lines of business include community banking and wealth management. Our community banking business primarily consists of commercial and retail lending and deposit taking. Our wealth management group provides a comprehensive suite of trust and wealth management products and services, and had $4.15 billion of assets under administration as of December 31, 2024.
Our principal business activity has been lending to and accepting deposits from individuals, businesses, municipalities and other entities. We have derived income principally from interest charged on loans and leases and, to a lesser extent, from interest and dividends earned on investment securities. We have also derived income from noninterest sources, such as: fees received in connection with various lending and deposit services; wealth management services; residential mortgage loan originations and sales; and, from time to time, gains on sales of assets. Our principal expenses include interest expense on deposits and borrowings, operating expenses, such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses, data processing costs, professional fees, provisions for credit losses, income tax expense, and other noninterest expenses.
Actions Taken to Address Credit Deterioration in Fourth Quarter 2024
During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company took several actions to address its credit quality issues. Our deteriorating credit quality issues were primarily within three sectors of our business: non-core consumer loans, Specialty Finance Group and Midland Equipment Financing.
The Company decided to accelerate the reduction of our non-core consumer loan portfolio through sales. These loans were originated through our FinTech partners, LendingPoint and GreenSky. In December 2024, we sold our $87.1 million LendingPoint portfolio, recognizing net charge-offs of $17.3 million on the sale. We also committed to a plan to sell our GreenSky consumer loan portfolio and recognized net charge-offs of $35.0 million when these loans were transferred to held for sale. On April 9, 2025, we sold participation interests in $317.5 million of our GreenSky consumer loan portfolio, with the intent to retain the remaining portion of the portfolio.
The Specialty Finance Group provides bridge loan financing for commercial real estate projects, primarily multi-family and healthcare. These projects can include construction and seek short term financing in anticipation of obtaining permanent secondary market financing. The loans are typically outside of the Company’s primary market areas. We completed a strategic review of this portfolio including obtaining updated appraisals on loans that had shown elevated credit risk in the third and fourth quarters. As a result of this review, five loans with balances of $57.8 million were moved from substandard to nonperforming with recognized charge-offs of $6.6 million. In addition, updated appraisals were obtained for five non-performing loans with a total balance of $55.8 million which resulted in charge-offs of $18.8 million recognized in the fourth
quarter of 2024. In addition, we recognized impairment expense on an OREO property related to a former assisted living loan of $3.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
The strategic review also included all criticized loans, construction loans and loans that failed our stress test in all portfolios. In addition, the Company tightened credit standards going forward and will not originate new construction loans in the Specialty Finance Group. We believe that our strategic actions around credit administration will better position the Company going forward.
The equipment finance portfolio includes loans and leases originated to customers throughout the United States. During 2024, we experienced elevated charge-offs primarily within the trucking industry. Charge-offs in this portfolio were $15.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 as we evaluated equipment values for nonaccrual assets. Nonaccrual loans and leases in the finance portfolio decreased to $11.3 million from $13.7 million at December 31, 2023. Additionally, based on further deterioration in the industry, we evaluated salvage values of the leases and loans related to this industry, along with the carrying values of repossessed and off-lease equipment, and recognized impairment expense of $7.9 million.
Additional Factors Affecting Comparability
Each factor listed below affects the comparability of our results of operations and financial condition in 2024 and 2023, and may affect the comparability of financial information we report in future fiscal periods.
Balance Sheet Repositioning. In 2023, the Company took advantage of certain market conditions to reposition out of lower yielding securities into other structures, which resulted in improved overall margin, liquidity and capital allocations. These transactions resulted in losses of $9.4 million.
In addition, in the third quarter of 2023, the Company surrendered certain low-yielding life insurance policies and purchased additional policies. The Company recognized a $4.5 million tax charge related to the surrender of the policies.
Redemption of Subordinated Notes. In 2024, the Company redeemed $16.0 million of outstanding subordinated notes. The weighted average redemption price was 98.5% of the aggregate principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recorded net gains totaling $0.2 million on these redemptions.
In 2023, the Company redeemed $6.6 million of outstanding subordinated notes. The weighted average redemption price was 89.2% of the aggregate principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recorded gains totaling $0.7 million on these redemptions.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, we generated net income of $38.0 million, or diluted earnings per common share of $1.32, compared to net income of $61.2 million, or diluted earnings per common share of $2.33, in the year ended December 31, 2023. Earnings for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, decreased primarily due to a $12.5 million decrease in net interest income, a $37.8 million increase in provision for credit losses and a $14.8 million increase in noninterest expense. These results were partially offset by a $24.0 million increase in noninterest income and an $18.0 million decrease in income tax expense.
Net Interest Income and Margin. Our primary source of revenue is net interest income, which is the difference between interest income from interest-earning assets (primarily loans and securities) and interest expense of funding sources (primarily interest-bearing deposits and borrowings). Net interest income is influenced by many factors, primarily the volume and mix of interest-earning assets, funding sources and interest rate fluctuations. Noninterest-bearing sources of funds, such as demand deposits and shareholders’ equity, also support earning assets. Net interest margin is calculated as net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Net interest margin is presented on a tax-equivalent basis, which means that tax-free interest income has been adjusted to a pretax-equivalent income, assuming a federal income tax rate of 21% for 2024 and 2023.
In 2024, the Federal Reserve cut its benchmark interest rate three times by a total of 1.00 percentage point, marking the first reductions in four years. These rate cuts lowered the federal funds rate into a range of 4.25% to 4.50%, back to levels in December 2022.
The latest rate cut, announced December 18, 2024, was accompanied by Federal Open Market Committee member forecasts, which reflected expectations of fewer and slower additional interest rate cuts through the end of 2025, 2026 and 2027 than the FOMC forecasted in September 2024. On January 29, 2025, the FOMC left unchanged its overnight borrowing rate in a range between 4.25% and 4.50%. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) concluded its May 2025 meeting with the Federal Reserve maintaining its target range for the federal funds rate at 4.25%-4.50%, as expected. This was the third consecutive meeting that the Federal Reserve held interest rates steady, based in part on concerns over the potential impact of tariffs. The FOMC updated its statement to reflect its view that risks to both of its mandates, the potential for higher unemployment and higher inflation, have risen. A healthy labor market, with unemployment low at 4.20%, gives the Federal Reserve some flexibility to assess the potential impact of tariffs on inflation and the economy. Inflation has been approaching the Federal Reserve's 2.0% target, but tariffs are expected to result in at least a one-time rise in prices. The central bank’s preferred gauge, personal consumption expenditure, showed headline inflation at 2.3%.
In 2024, net interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased $12.5 million to $237.2 million with a tax-equivalent net interest margin of 3.35% compared to net interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, of $249.6 million and a tax-equivalent net interest margin of 3.43% in 2023.

(1)Interest income and average rates for tax-exempt loans and securities are presented on a tax-equivalent basis, assuming a statutory federal income tax rate of 21%. Tax-equivalent adjustments totaled $0.8 million, $0.8 million and $1.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(2)Average loan balances include nonaccrual loans. Interest income on loans includes amortization of deferred loan fees, net of deferred loan costs.
(3)Net interest margin during the periods presented represents: (i) the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and the interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, divided by (ii) average interest-earning assets for the period.
Interest Rates and Operating Interest Differential. Increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in average interest rates. The following table shows the effect that these factors had on the interest earned on our interest-earning assets and the interest incurred on our interest-bearing liabilities. The effect of changes in volume is determined by multiplying the change in volume by the previous period’s average rate. Similarly, the effect of rate changes is calculated by multiplying the change in average rate by the previous period’s volume. Changes which are not due solely to volume or rate have been allocated proportionally to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Interest Income. For the year ended December 31, 2024, interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased $9.0 million to $426.9 million as compared to the prior year. The yield on earning assets increased 28 basis points to 6.03% from 5.75%, primarily due to the impact of increasing market interest rates.
Average earning assets decreased to $7.08 billion in 2024 from $7.27 billion in 2023. Average loans decreased $452.0 million, which was partially offset by an increase in investment securities of $261.6 million.
Average loans decreased $452.0 million in 2024 compared to 2023 primarily due to continued reductions in our equipment financing and consumer loan portfolios. Average equipment finance loan and lease balances decreased $192.7 million to $899.7 million in 2024 as the Company continued to reduce its concentration of this product within the overall loan portfolio. Average consumer loans decreased $327.3 million primarily due to loan payoffs and a cessation in loans originated through GreenSky and LendingPoint.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $21.5 million to $189.8 million in 2024 compared to 2023. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 3.31% compared to 2.87% for the prior year due to the increase in deposit and short-term borrowing costs as a result of the rate increases previously enacted by the Federal Reserve.
Interest expense on deposits increased $23.7 million to $160.7 million in 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to increases in interest rates on deposits. Average balances of interest-bearing deposit accounts decreased $73.9 million, or 1.4%, to $5.17 billion for 2024 compared to the same period one year earlier. Decreases in interest checking and savings account balances of $158.4 million and $79.1 million, respectively, were partially offset by increases in time and brokered time deposits of $31.8 million and $131.8 million, respectively.
Interest expense on FHLB advances and other borrowings decreased $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, from the prior year, due to decreases in both average balances and interest rates. The average balances decreased $79.3 million in 2024 compared to 2023, while the average borrowing rates decreased to 4.32% in 2024 compared to 4.49% in 2023.
Provision for Credit Losses. The Company's provision for credit losses was $120.3 million and $82.6 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. In 2024, the provisions for credit losses on loans and on unfunded commitments were $119.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. As previously disclosed, the Company recognized charge-offs in its specialty finance and equipment financing units of $25.3 million and $28.8 million, respectively in 2024. These charge-offs, recognized to reduce future credit risk, resulted in the increase in provision expense in 2024.
The provision for credit losses on loans recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024 was made at a level deemed necessary by management to absorb estimated losses in the loan portfolio. A detailed evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is completed quarterly by management, the results of which are used to determine provision for credit losses. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts along with other qualitative and quantitative factors.
Noninterest Income. The following table sets forth the major components of our noninterest income for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022:

Assets. Total assets were $7.51 billion at December 31, 2024, as compared to $7.79 billion at December 31, 2023.
Loans. The loan portfolio is the largest category of our assets. The principal segments of our loan portfolio are discussed below:
Commercial loans. We provide a mix of variable and fixed rate commercial loans. The loans are typically made to small- and medium-sized manufacturing, wholesale, retail and service businesses for working capital needs, business expansions and farm operations. Commercial loans generally include lines of credit and loans with maturities of five years or less. The loans are generally made with business operations as the primary source of repayment, but may also include collateralization by inventory, accounts receivable and equipment, and generally include personal guarantees. The commercial loan category also includes loans originated by the equipment financing business that are secured by the underlying equipment.
Commercial real estate loans. Our commercial real estate loans consist of both real estate occupied by the borrower for ongoing operations and non-owner occupied real estate properties. The real estate securing our existing commercial real estate loans includes a wide variety of property types, such as owner occupied offices, warehouses and production facilities, office buildings, hotels, mixed-use residential and commercial facilities, retail centers, multifamily properties, skilled nursing and assisted living facilities. Our commercial real estate loan portfolio also includes farmland loans. Farmland loans are generally made to a borrower actively involved in farming rather than to passive investors.
Construction and land development loans. Our construction and land development loans are comprised of residential construction, commercial construction and land acquisition and development loans. Interest reserves are generally established on real estate construction loans.
The following table presents the balance and associated percentage of the major property types within our commercial real estate and construction and land development loan portfolios at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Total loans decreased $936.0 million, or 15.3%, to $5.17 billion at December 31, 2024, as compared to December 31, 2023. The decrease is primarily due to the Company’s strategic reduction in its non-core consumer loan portfolios, and the continuation of the Company’s plan to decrease its equipment financing portfolio. Consumer loans decreased $740.5 million to $144.3 million at December 31, 2024, primarily due to the loan portfolio sale, transfer to held for sale and loan paydowns. Equipment finance loan and lease balances decreased $196.1 million to $808.4 million at December 31, 2024, as the Company continued to reduce its concentration of this product within the overall loan portfolio. Equipment financing and consumer loans comprised 15.6% and 2.8%, respectively, of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2024, compared to 16.5% and 14.5%, respectively, at
December 31, 2023.

Loan Quality
We use what we believe is a comprehensive methodology to monitor credit quality and prudently manage credit concentration within our loan portfolio. Our underwriting policies and practices govern the risk profile, credit and geographic concentration for our loan portfolio. We also have what we believe to be a comprehensive methodology to monitor these credit quality standards, including a risk classification system that identifies potential problem loans based on risk characteristics by loan type as well as the early identification of deterioration at the individual loan level.
Analysis of the Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans. The allowance for credit losses on loans was $111.2 million, or 2.15% of total loans, at December 31, 2024, compared to $159.3 million, or 2.61% of total loans, at December 31, 2023.

We measure expected credit losses over the life of each loan utilizing a combination of models which measure probability of default and loss given default, among other things. The measurement of expected credit losses is impacted by loan and borrower attributes and certain macroeconomic variables. Models are adjusted to reflect the impact of certain current macroeconomic variables as well as their expected changes over a reasonable and supportable forecast period.
In estimating expected credit losses as of December 31, 2024, we utilized certain forecasted macroeconomic variables from Oxford Economics in our models. The forecasted projections included, among other things, (i) U.S. gross domestic product ranging from 2.5% to 2.6% over the next four quarters; (ii) the 10-year treasury rate ranging from 4.2% to 4.3% over the next four quarters; and (iii) Illinois unemployment rate averaging 5.5% through the fourth quarter of 2025.
We qualitatively adjust the model results based on this scenario for various risk factors that are not considered within our modeling processes but are nonetheless relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within our loan pools. These Q-
Factor adjustments are based upon management judgment and current assessment as to the impact of risks related to changes in lending policies and procedures; economic and business conditions; loan portfolio attributes and credit concentrations; and external factors, among other things, that are not already fully captured within the modeling inputs, assumptions and other processes. Management assesses the potential impact of such items within a range of severely negative impact to positive impact and adjusts the modeled expected credit loss by an aggregate adjustment percentage based upon the assessment. The qualitative factor adjustment at December 31, 2024, was approximately 67 basis points of total loans, increasing from 41 basis points at December 31, 2023. The Q-Factor adjustment at December 31, 2024 was based primarily on declining credit quality indicators and increased collateral valuation risks within the commercial real estate secured loan segments.
The allowance allocated to commercial loans totaled $42.8 million, or 3.15% of total commercial loans, at December 31, 2024, compared to $29.7 million, or 1.97%, at December 31, 2023. Modeled expected credit losses increased $13.6 million primarily related to one third-party loan program. Qualitative factor adjustments related to commercial loans increased $1.2 million due to increases in the credit quality factor as a result of the deteriorating credit quality metrics. Specific allocations for commercial loans that were individually evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis decreased $1.8 million from December 31, 2023, as these loans were charged-off in 2024.
The allowance allocated to commercial real estate loans totaled $36.8 million, or 1.42% of total commercial real estate loans, at December 31, 2024, increasing $16.6 million, from $20.2 million, or 0.84% of total commercial real estate loans, at December 31, 2023. Modeled expected credit losses increased $0.6 million. Qualitative factor adjustments increased $5.5 million due to increases in the credit quality and collateral adequacy factors. Specific allocations for loans that were individually evaluated increased $10.5 million related to two relationships in our Specialty Finance Group. The commercial real estate portfolio does not include significant exposure to urban office properties.
The allowance allocated to construction and land development loans totaled $3.6 million, or 1.18% of total construction and land development loans, at December 31, 2024, decreasing $0.6 million, from $4.2 million, or 0.92% of total constructions loans, at December 31, 2023. Modeled expected credit losses decreased $1.2 million and qualitative factor adjustments related to construction loans increased $0.6 million. There were no specific allocations for construction loans that were evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis at December 31, 2024.
The allowance allocated to residential real estate loans totaled $8.0 million, or 2.10% of total residential real estate loans, at December 31, 2024, increasing $2.4 million, from $5.6 million, or 1.46% of total residential real estate loans, at December 31, 2023. Modeled expected credit losses and qualitative factor adjustments increased $2.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Recent charge-off activity resulted in the increase in modeled expected losses.

The allowance allocated to consumer loans totaled $5.4 million, or 3.74% of total consumer loans, at December 31, 2024, compared to $86.8 million, or 9.81%, at December 31, 2023. Consumer loans at December 31, 2024, totaled $144.3 million, a decrease of $740.5 million from December 31, 2023, as a result of the sale of the LendingPoint portfolio and the transfer of a significant portion of the GreenSky portfolio to held for sale. The related allowances for credit losses for both portfolios were eliminated at December 31, 2024, due to the these actions. Specific allocations for consumer loans that were evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis decreased $0.1 million.
The allowance allocated to the lease portfolio totaled $14.6 million, or 3.74% of total commercial leases, at December 31, 2024, increasing $1.7 million, from $12.9 million, or 2.73% of total commercial leases at December 31, 2023. Modeled expected credit losses increased $1.4 million as recent charge-off activity led to an increase in loss given default factors in the model. Qualitative factor adjustments and specific allocation reserves increased $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
The following table provides an analysis of the allowance for credit losses on loans, provision for credit losses on loans and net charge-offs for the years ended 2024, 2023, and 2022:

Individual loans considered to be uncollectible are charged-off against the allowance. Factors used in determining the amount and timing of charge-offs on loans include consideration of the loan type, length of delinquency, sufficiency of collateral value, lien priority and the overall financial condition of the borrower. Collateral value is determined using updated appraisals and/or other market comparable information. Charge-offs are generally taken on loans when the collectability of a loan balance is unlikely. Recoveries on loans previously charged-off are added to the allowance.

Consumer loan charge-offs totaled $98.1 million in 2024, increasing $64.9 million from 2023, primarily due to the recognition of charge-offs of $17.3 million in connection with the sale of our Lending Point portfolio and $35.0 million in connection with the planned sale and transfer of the GreenSky portfolio to held for sale. Our equipment finance business saw charge-offs increase to $28.8 million in 2024 from $9.6 million in 2023, due primarily to continued weakness within the trucking sector.
Nonperforming Loans. The following table presents the change in our non-performing loans for the year ended December 31, 2024:

Non-performing loans increased $94.5 million to $150.9 million at December 31, 2024, compared to $56.4 million at December 31, 2023. The majority of the increase is attributable to multi-family construction or multi-family project nonperforming loans of $57.6 million and health care related loans, including assisted living and skilled nursing, which increased $15.5 million. These loans are outside of the Company’s core market.
The following table sets forth our nonperforming assets by asset categories as of the dates indicated. Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. The balances of nonperforming loans reflect the net investment in these assets.

Liabilities. At December 31, 2024, liabilities totaled $6.80 billion compared to $7.07 billion at December 31, 2023.
Deposits. We emphasize developing total client relationships with our customers in order to increase our retail and commercial core deposit bases, which are our primary funding sources. Our deposits consist of noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand, savings and time deposit accounts.
Total deposits decreased $112.3 million to $6.20 billion at December 31, 2024, as compared to December 31, 2023. Decreases in noninterest-bearing demand account, interest-bearing checking account, and savings account balances of $89.8 million, $133.6 million and $52.0 million, respectively, during this period, were partially offset by increases in money market account and time deposit account balances. Brokered time deposit account balances increased to $259.5 million at December 31, 2024 from $94.5 million at December 31, 2023, accounting for the increase in time deposit account balances. Deposit outflows were primarily related to certain larger commercial clients moving funds to the Company's wealth management business.

Capital Resources and Liquidity Management
Capital Resources. Shareholders’ equity is influenced primarily by earnings, dividends, issuances and redemptions of common and preferred stock and changes in accumulated other comprehensive income caused primarily by fluctuations in unrealized holding gains or losses, net of taxes, on available-for-sale investment securities, fair value hedges and cash flow hedges.
Shareholders’ equity decreased $4.3 million to $710.8 million at December 31, 2024, as compared to December 31, 2023. The change in shareholders’ equity was the primarily the result of net income of $38.0 million, less dividends to common shareholders of $27.1 million, dividends to preferred shareholders of $8.9 million, the repurchases of common stock of $5.5 million and increase in accumulated other comprehensive losses of $5.2 million.
On December 5, 2023, the Company’s board of directors authorized a share repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $25.0 million of common stock through December 31, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 228,266 shares of its common stock at a weighted average price of $23.93 under its stock repurchase program. The program terminated effective December 31, 2024.
Liquidity Management. Liquidity refers to the measure of our ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers, while at the same time meeting our operating, capital and strategic cash flow needs, all at a reasonable cost. We continuously monitor our liquidity position to ensure that assets and liabilities are managed in a manner that will meet all short-term and long-term cash requirements. We manage our liquidity position to meet the daily cash flow needs of customers, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives of our shareholders.
Integral to our liquidity management is the administration of short-term borrowings. To the extent we are unable to obtain sufficient liquidity through core deposits, we seek to meet our liquidity needs through wholesale funding or other borrowings on either a short- or long-term basis.
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which are classified as secured borrowings, generally mature within one to four days from the transaction date. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction, which represents the amount of the Bank’s obligation. The Bank may be required to provide additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities. Investment securities with a carrying amount of $15.0 million and $20.9 million at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, were pledged for securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

The Company is a corporation separate and apart from the Bank and, therefore, must provide for its own liquidity. The Company’s main source of funding is dividends declared and paid to it by the Bank. There are statutory, regulatory and debt covenant limitations that affect the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company. Management believed at December 31, 2024, that these limitations will not impact our ability to meet our ongoing short-term cash obligations.
Regulatory Capital Requirements
We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking regulators. Failure to meet regulatory capital requirements may result in certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by
regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for “prompt corrective action”, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting policies.
The Company adopted the five-year CECL transition option in 2020 provided for by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve, and the FDIC in March 2020. At the end of 2024 this transition will be complete.
At December 31, 2024, the Company and the Bank exceeded the regulatory minimums and met the regulatory definition of well-capitalized. The following table presents the Company's and the Bank’s capital ratios and the minimum requirements at December 31, 2024:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have limited off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
In the normal course of business, we enter into various transactions, which, in accordance with GAAP, are not included in our consolidated balance sheets. We enter into these transactions to meet the financing needs of our customers. These transactions include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in our consolidated balance sheets. Most of these commitments mature within two years and are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Standby letters of credit are included in the determination of the amount of risk-based capital that the Company and the Bank are required to hold.
We enter into contractual loan commitments to extend credit, normally with fixed expiration dates or termination clauses, at specified rates and for specific purposes. Substantially all of our commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards until the time of loan funding. We decrease our exposure to losses under these commitments by subjecting them to credit approval and monitoring procedures. We assess the credit risk associated with certain commitments to extend credit and establish a liability for probable credit losses.
Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. In the event that the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, we would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. If the commitment is funded, we would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. Our policies generally require that standby letter of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants similar to those contained in loan agreements.
We guarantee the distributions and payments for redemption or liquidation of the trust preferred securities issued by our wholly owned subsidiary business trusts to the extent of funds held by the trusts. Although this guarantee is not separately
recorded, the obligation underlying the guarantee is fully reflected on our consolidated balance sheets as junior subordinated debentures held by subsidiary trusts. The junior subordinated debentures currently qualify as Tier 1 capital under the Federal Reserve capital adequacy guidelines.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Risk. Market risk represents the risk of loss due to changes in market values of assets and liabilities. We incur market risk in the normal course of business through exposures to market interest rates, equity prices, and credit spreads. We are primarily exposed to interest rate risk as a result of offering a wide array of financial products to our customers and secondarily to price risk from investments in securities.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings arising from changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from timing differences in the repricings and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (reprice risk), changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities arising from embedded options, such as borrowers’ ability to prepay residential mortgage loans at any time and depositors’ ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity (option risk), changes in the shape of the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a nonparallel fashion (yield curve risk), and changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries and SOFR (basis risk).
Interest rate risk management is an active process that encompasses monitoring loan and deposit flows complemented by investment, funding and hedging activities. Effective management of interest rate risk begins with understanding the dynamic characteristics of assets and liabilities and determining the appropriate interest rate risk posture given business forecasts, management objectives, market expectations, and policy constraints.
Changes in market interest rates may result in changes in the fair market value of our financial instruments, cash flows, and net interest income. We seek to achieve a stable net interest income profile while managing volatility arising from shifts in market interest rates. Our Board of Directors’ Risk Policy and Compliance Committee oversees interest rate risk, as well as the establishment of risk measures, limits, and policy guidelines for managing the amount of interest rate risk and its effect on net interest income. The Committee meets quarterly to monitor the level of interest rate risk sensitivity to ensure compliance with the board of directors’ approved risk limits.
An asset sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate higher net interest income, as rates earned on our interest-earning assets would reprice upward more quickly than rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities, thus expanding our net interest margin. Conversely, a liability sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate lower net interest income, as rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities would reprice upward more quickly than rates earned on our interest-earning assets, thus compressing our net interest margin.
Interest rate risk measurement is calculated and reported to the Risk Policy and Compliance Committee at least quarterly. The information reported includes period-end results and identifies any policy limits exceeded, along with an assessment of the policy limit breach and the action plan and timeline for resolution, mitigation, or assumption of the risk.
We use NII at Risk to model interest rate risk utilizing various assumptions for assets, liabilities, and derivatives. NII at Risk uses net interest income simulation analysis which involves forecasting net interest earnings under a variety of scenarios including changes in the level of interest rates, the shape of the yield curve, and spreads between market interest rates. The sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates is measured using numerous interest rate scenarios including shocks, gradual ramps, curve flattening, curve steepening as well as forecasts of likely interest rates scenarios. Modeling the sensitivity of net interest earnings to changes in market interest rates is highly dependent on numerous assumptions incorporated into the modeling process. To the extent that actual performance is different than what was assumed, actual net interest earnings sensitivity may be different than projected. We use various ad-hoc reports to continuously refine, stress and validate these assumptions. Assumptions and methodologies regarding administered rate liabilities (e.g., savings accounts, money market accounts and interest-bearing checking accounts), balance trends, and repricing relationships reflect our best estimate of expected behavior and these assumptions are reviewed periodically.
The following table shows NII at Risk at the dates indicated:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

We report NII at Risk to isolate the change in income related solely to interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The NII at Risk results included in the table above reflect the analysis used quarterly by management. It models -200, −100, +100 and +200 basis point parallel shifts in market interest rates. We were within board policy limits for all scenarios at December 31, 2024.
Tolerance levels for risk management require the continuing development of remedial plans to maintain residual risk within approved levels as we adjust the balance sheet. NII at Risk reported at December 31, 2024 projects that our earnings exhibit increasing profitability in a declining rate environment, consistent with our modeling at December 31, 2023. Throughout the course of 2024, the bank exhibited similar trends to the industry concerning its beta assumptions related to its non-maturity deposit portfolio. Coupled with the Federal Reserve lowering rates in the second half of 2024, the Bank continued its strategy of layering on protection to lower short-term rates through deposit pricing, securities purchase selection and hedging. These aspects are reflective of the bank becoming more biased to lower rates year over year.
Price Risk. Price risk represents the risk of loss arising from adverse movements in the prices of financial instruments that are carried at fair value and are subject to fair value accounting. We have price risk from investment securities, derivative instruments, and equity investments.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our most significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Certain of these accounting policies require management to use significant judgment and estimates, which can have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, and we consider these policies to be our critical accounting estimates. The judgment and assumptions made are based upon historical experience, future forecasts, or other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgment and assumptions, actual results could differ from estimates, which could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
The following accounting estimates materially affect our reported earnings and financial condition and requires significant judgments and assumptions. Management has reviewed these critical accounting estimates and related disclosures with our Audit Committee.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans. Management’s evaluation process used to determine the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses on loans is subject to the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments. The evaluation process combines many factors: management’s ongoing review and grading of the loan portfolio leveraging probability of default and loss given default, consideration of historical loan loss and delinquency experience, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, risk characteristics of the various classifications of loans, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries, existing economic conditions and forecasts, the fair value of underlying collateral, and other qualitative and quantitative factors which could affect future credit losses. Because current economic conditions and forecasts can change and future events are inherently difficult to predict, the anticipated amount of estimated credit losses on loans, and therefore the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses on loans, could change significantly. It is difficult to estimate how potential changes in any one economic factor or input might affect the overall allowance because a wide variety of factors and inputs are considered in estimating the allowance and changes in those factors and inputs considered may not occur at the same rate and may not be consistent across all product types. Additionally, changes in factors and inputs may be directionally inconsistent, such that improvement in one factor may offset deterioration in others. As an integral part of their examination process, various regulatory agencies also review the allowance for credit losses on loans. Such agencies may require additions to the allowance for credit losses on loans or may require that certain loan balances be charged-off or downgraded into criticized loan categories when their credit evaluations differ from those of management, based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. The Company believes the level of the allowance for credit losses on loans is appropriate. See Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 3 - Loans of the notes to consolidated financial statements.
Goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is subject to impairment testing, which must be conducted at least annually or upon the occurrence of a triggering event. Various factors, such as the Company’s results of operations, the trading price of the Company’s common stock relative to the book value per share, macroeconomic conditions and conditions in the banking sector, inform whether a triggering event for an interim goodwill impairment test has occurred. Goodwill is recorded and evaluated for impairment at its reporting units, Banking and Wealth Management. The Company's policy is to test goodwill for impairment annually as of August 31, or on an interim basis if an event triggering an impairment assessment is determined to have occurred.
Testing of goodwill impairment comprises a two-step process. First, the Company performs a qualitative assessment to evaluate relevant events or circumstances to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that an impairment has occurred, it proceeds to the quantitative impairment test, whereby it calculates the fair value of the reporting unit and compares it with its carrying amount, including goodwill. In its performance of impairment testing, the Company has the unconditional option to proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test, bypassing the qualitative assessment. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value, up to the carrying value of goodwill, is recorded through earnings as an impairment charge. If the results of the qualitative assessment indicate that it is not more likely than not that an impairment has occurred, or if the quantitative impairment test results in a fair value of the reporting unit that is greater than the carrying amount, then no impairment charge is recorded.
The Company performed a quantitative impairment test on its Banking reporting unit as of December 31, 2024, and engaged a third-party service provider to assist Management with the determination of the fair value. The resulting calculation indicated that the fair value exceeded the carrying amount of the Company's Banking reporting unit by approximately 7% as of December 31, 2024, which resulted in a determination of no impairment loss.
The method employed was a discounted cash flow analysis. Significant judgment is necessary in the determination of the fair value of a reporting unit. The income valuation methodology requires an estimation of future cash flows, considering
the after-tax results of operations, the extent and timing of credit losses, and appropriate discount and growth rates. Actual future cash flows may differ from forecasted results based on the assumptions used.
In performing the discounted cash flow analysis, the Company utilized multi-year cash projections that rely on internal forecasts of loan and deposit growth, bond mix, financing composition, market pricing of securities, credit performance, forward interest rates, future returns driven by net interest margin, fee generation and expense incurrence, industry and economic trends, and other relevant considerations. The long-term growth rate used in the calculation of fair value was derived from published projections of the inflation rate, along with Management estimates.
The discount rate was calculated as the cost of equity capital using the modified capital asset pricing model, which includes variables including the risk-free interest rate, beta, equity risk premium, size premium and company-specific risk premium.
Subsequently, during the first quarter of 2025, Management determined that a triggering event had occurred at its Banking reporting unit as a result of further deteriorated credit quality coupled with the trends in the stock price. The Company performed a quantitative impairment test on its Banking reporting unit as of March 31, 2025, and engaged a third-party service provider to assist Management with the determination of the fair value. The resulting calculation indicated that the carrying amount exceeded the fair value of the Company's Banking reporting unit. As a result of the assessment, the Company expects to recognize goodwill impairment expense between $135.0 million and $154.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. This non-cash impairment expense will not impact our regulatory capital ratios, tangible common equity ratio nor our liquidity position, and will not result in future cash expenditures. Management has evaluated and will continue to evaluate economic conditions in interim periods for triggering events.
Third-party loan origination and servicing programs. The Company operated three significant programs to originate and service unsecured commercial and consumer loans. Loan options under the programs include traditional fully-amortizing loans and promotional loans with no interest, or “same-as-cash”, features if the loan is fully repaid in the promotional window. The loans are originated at par in the Company’s name and have terms ranging from five months to 25 years with a much shorter effective life due to amortization and prepayments.
Two programs are governed by multiple interrelated agreements including the loan agreement between the Company and the customer and agreements with the servicer. The structures of these programs are intended to generate loans that yield a targeted return to the Company on a portfolio basis while also providing credit enhancement from the servicer. Key characteristics of these programs include:
•The servicer guarantees a targeted return which is paid first by customer payments and, if necessary, supplemented by the servicer.
•The servicer contributes funds to a reserve account at the time of origination to be used for future charge-offs, if necessary.
•Excess yield on the portfolio after realized charge-offs and above an agreed upon target rate due to the Company is paid to the servicer as a “performance fee.”
•In the event charge-offs exceed the amount available as a performance fee, they roll over to future periods to offset potential performance fees and subsequent reserve account fundings related to the portfolio.
The third program is governed by multiple interrelated agreements including the loan agreements between the Company and the customer, the Company and the program sponsor, and the Company and the servicer. Key characteristics of the program with a sponsor include:
•The program sponsor guarantees a targeted return which is paid first by customer payments and, if necessary, supplemented by the program sponsor.
•Excess yield on the portfolio after realized charge-offs and above an agreed upon target rate due to the Company is paid to the program sponsor as a “performance fee.”
•In the event charge-offs exceed the amount available as a performance fee the program sponsor reimburses the Company for all excess charge-offs.
Under U.S. GAAP, agreements with multiple counterparties, such as the customer, servicer and program sponsor, are generally required to be accounted for separately even if the agreements are highly interrelated. As a result, we account for the programs as multiple units of account with the following impacts:
•The loans are accounted for as one unit of account under U.S. GAAP including revenue recognition and inclusion in our CECL allowance methodology.
•The agreement that governs the yield maintenance or credit enhancement from the servicer or program sponsor is a separate unit of account and meets the definition of a derivative under U.S. GAAP and is accounted for at fair value in our financial statements. The primary drivers of the derivative value include estimated prepayment activity on promotional loans that would trigger reimbursement from the third-party servicer or program sponsor to us and estimated excess yield above projected credit losses that would lead to performance fee payments from us to the third-party servicer or program sponsor. The credit risk of the third-party and discount rates used in the calculation also impact the value of the derivative. Changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as gains or losses in noninterest income.
•Noninterest income each period includes actual amounts received during the period for interest reimbursement and amounts paid by the servicer or program sponsor under the credit enhancement described above.
•Noninterest expense each period includes actual amounts paid during the period for performance fees and servicing fees as defined in our agreement with the servicer or program sponsor.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, loans outstanding in these programs were $110.4 million and $853.4 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, $336.7 million is included in loans held for sale at lower of cost or market as a result of our decision to pursue a sale of that portion of the portfolio.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Midland States Bancorp, Inc.
Effingham, Illinois
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Midland Sates Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, because of the effects of the material weaknesses discussed in the following paragraphs, the Company has not maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by COSO.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weaknesses have been identified and included in management's report:
•The Company did not design and maintain controls to assess the risk of material misstatement with contracts related to non-routine transactions.
•The Company did not design and maintain an effective internal control activities for evaluating the accounting and financial reporting related to third-party credit enhancement contracts.
•The Company did not design and maintain effective internal controls over loan data, including the activities performed by certain third-party service organizations that perform core lending functions. The loan data control deficiencies affect the allowance for credit losses, loan balances, accrued interest, interest income, servicing fees, and the fair value of the credit enhancement derivative.
We considered these material weaknesses identified above in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2024 consolidated financial statements, and our opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting does not affect our opinion on the financial statements.
Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the 2023 and 2022 consolidated financial statements have been restated to correct misstatements.
Basis for Opinions
The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans – Qualitative Factors
As described in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans (“ACL”) represents the Company’s estimate of amounts that are not expected to be collected over the contractual life of the Company’s held for investment loan portfolio. The estimate of the ACL is based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s ACL was $111.2 million, and the provision for credit losses on loans was $119.3 million for the year then ended.
The Company measures expected credit losses by utilizing a probability of default, loss given default, and exposure at default model to estimate the quantitative component of the allowance for credit losses for loans. Management qualitatively adjusts the quantitative model results for risk factors that are not considered within the modeling process but are relevant in assessing the expected credit losses. These qualitative factors are based upon management judgment and current assessment as to the impact of risks related to actual and expected changes in economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the loan pools, changes in volume and severity of past due financial assets, the volume of non-accrual assets, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded assets, changes in the value of the underlying collateral for loans that are non-collateral dependent, and other internal and external factors.
We have identified auditing the qualitative factors as a critical audit matter as management’s determination of the qualitative factors is subjective and involves significant management judgments; and our audit procedures related to certain of the qualitative factors involved a high degree of auditor judgment and required significant audit effort, including the need to involve more experienced audit personnel.
The primary audit procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
•Tested the operating effectiveness of the Company’s controls over the:
▪Review over the appropriateness of the framework for the qualitative factors.
▪Completeness and accuracy of internal data used in the qualitative factors.
▪Review over the relevance and reliability of external data used in the qualitative factors.
▪Mathematical accuracy of the qualitative factors.
•Substantive tests included:
◦Testing the completeness and accuracy of internal data and relevance and reliability of external data used in the qualitative factors
◦Assessing the appropriateness and reasonableness of the framework developed for the qualitative factors including evaluating management’s judgments as to which factors impacted the qualitative analysis for each portfolio segment.
◦Performing testing over the accuracy of inputs utilized in the calculation of qualitative factors for each portfolio segment.
◦Testing the mathematical accuracy of the calculation of the qualitative factors.
Goodwill Impairment Assessment
As described in Notes 1 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements, goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of the business acquired and is periodically evaluated for impairment. The Company’s goodwill balance was $161.9 million as of December 31, 2024, of which $157.2 million is allocated to the Company’s banking segment.
The Company tests for impairment at least annually or, more frequently, if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the fair value of the reporting unit may be below its carrying amount (triggering event). The Company determined that a triggering event occurred and performed a quantitative assessment of goodwill for the Company’s bank reporting unit as of December 31, 2024. The Company engaged a third-party service provider in performing its quantitative impairment assessment. The Company's impairment assessment estimated fair value using an income approach that incorporated a discounted cash flow model that involves management assumptions based upon internal forecasts.
We identified the auditing of the impairment assessment of goodwill as of December 31, 2024 as a critical audit matter due to the significant management judgments related to determining the fair value of the reporting unit, which in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment and subjectivity in evaluating the fair value of the reporting unit, specifically the significant assumptions related to the multi-year cash projections that rely on internal forecasts and the discount rate. In addition, we used auditor employed specialists to assist in evaluating the significant assumptions.
The primary audit procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
•Tested the operating effectiveness of the Company’s controls over the:
◦Review for completeness and accuracy of internal data and evaluation of the relevance and reliability of external data used in the impairment assessment.
◦Review of the reasonableness of the Company’s internal forecasts utilized in the impairment assessment.
◦Evaluation of the reasonableness of the valuation methodologies and the significant assumptions, including discount rate.
•Substantive tests included:
◦Evaluating the reasonableness of the valuation methodologies used to determine the fair value of the reporting unit.
◦Testing the completeness and accuracy of internal data, and evaluating the relevance and reliability of external data.
◦Evaluating the reasonableness of the internal forecasts utilized in the impairment assessment.
◦Utilization of auditor employed specialists to assist with the evaluation of the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies, reasonableness of the discount rate, and overall reasonableness of the fair value of the reporting unit.
Credit Enhancements Contained Within Third-Party Agreements
The Company has agreements with third parties to originate and service consumer and commercial loans that are included in the Company’s loan portfolio as described in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements. As part of these programs, the third-party provider offered various credit enhancements with respect to loans originated under the programs, including contributions to reserve accounts, yield maintenance and certain other payments. The Company has determined that the borrower payments and credit enhancement payments under the programs should be accounted for on a separate unit of account or gross basis, with loan yields and interest income recorded at the gross borrower loan rate, and credit losses and associated provisions for credit losses recorded on a gross basis over the life of the loans, and with all credit enhancement payments accounted for separately as a credit enhancement derivative. As of December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a credit enhancement asset of $16.8 million, which represents the fair value of the credit enhancement derivative associated with the agreements related to loans recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as of the same date.
We identified auditing the accounting associated with the credit enhancement contained within the third-party agreements as a critical audit matter due to the nature and extent of audit effort required, including the need for individuals with specialized knowledge. Additionally, material weaknesses were identified by the Company related to the accounting and financial reporting associated with the credit enhancement contained within the third-party agreements and its impact on consolidated financial statements.
The primary procedure we performed to address this critical audit matter included engaging our internal specialists to evaluate the third-party agreements and the related accounting treatment.

MIDLAND STATES BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (RESTATED)
Nature of Operations
Midland States Bancorp, Inc. is a diversified financial holding company headquartered in Effingham, Illinois. Our wholly owned banking subsidiary, Midland States Bank, has branches across Illinois and in Missouri, and provides a full range of commercial and consumer banking products and services, business equipment financing, merchant credit card services, trust and investment management services, and insurance and financial planning services.
Our principal business activity has been lending to and accepting deposits from individuals, businesses, municipalities and other entities. We have derived income principally from interest charged on loans and, to a lesser extent, from interest and dividends earned on investment securities. We have also derived income from noninterest sources, such as: fees received in connection with various lending and deposit services; wealth management services; mortgage loan originations, sales and servicing; and, from time to time, gains on sales of assets. Our principal expenses include interest expense on deposits and borrowings, operating expenses, such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses, data processing costs, professional fees and other noninterest expenses, provisions for credit losses and income tax expense.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry. Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reporting assets and liabilities to prepare the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Certain reclassifications of 2023 or 2022 amounts may have been made to conform to the 2024 presentation, but do not have an effect on net income or shareholders' equity.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include a restatement of the financial statements (i) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and (ii) for the year ended December 31, 2022 as referenced below.
Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure through July 1, 2025, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Under the acquisition method of accounting, tangible and intangible identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree are recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date. The Company includes the results of operations of the acquired company in the consolidated statements of income from the date of acquisition. Transaction costs and costs to restructure the acquired company are expensed as incurred. Goodwill is recognized as the excess of the acquisition price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is greater than the acquisition price, a bargain purchase gain is recognized and recorded in noninterest income.
Restatement of prior period Financial Statements
In connection with the preparation of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, the Audit Committee, after discussion with management and the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, Crowe LLP, concluded that the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the Restated Financial Periods should no longer be relied upon because of errors identified in such financial statements, as described below.
The errors relate to the Company’s accounting for loans originated pursuant to third-party loan origination programs. These programs go back as far as 2012. As part of these programs, the third-party providers offered various credit enhancements with respect to loans originated under the programs, including contributions to reserve accounts, yield maintenance and certain other payments. Historically, the Company accounted for all borrower payments and credit enhancement payments under these programs on a single unit, or net basis, with all such payments presented as interest income representing the Company’s effective yield on the portfolios. The Company has determined that these payments should instead
be accounted for on a separate unit of account, or gross basis, with loan yields and interest income recorded at the gross borrower loan rate, credit losses and associated provisions for credit losses recorded on a gross basis over the life of the loans, and with all credit enhancement payments recorded separately as a credit enhancement derivative.
As a result of the above, the Company is restating the financial statements (i) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and (ii) for the year ended December 31, 2022, as presented in the audited financial statements as of and for the period ended December 31, 2024 in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The impact of the errors for years prior to January 1, 2022 have been adjusted through opening equity as of January 1, 2022 in the audited consolidated financial statements presented herein. See Note 25 - Restatement of Prior Period Financial Statements for additional information, including the impact on the specific accounts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash Flows
For the presentation in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash on hand, amounts due from banks, which includes amounts on deposit with the Federal Reserve, interest-bearing deposits with banks or other financial institutions and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods, but not longer than 30 days.
The following table summarizes supplemental cash flow information:

Investment Securities
The Company classifies its debt investment securities as available for sale or held to maturity at the time of purchase. Securities held to maturity are those debt instruments which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity. Securities held to maturity are recorded at cost, adjusted for the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. All other debt securities are classified as available for sale. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, all investment securities were classified as available for sale. Investment securities available for sale are recorded at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, included in other comprehensive income. The related accumulated unrealized holding gains and losses are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized.
Purchase premiums are amortized over the estimated life or to the earliest call date and purchase discounts are accreted over the estimated life of the related investment security as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method. Unamortized premiums, unaccreted discounts, and early payment premiums are recognized in interest income upon disposition of the related security. Interest and dividend income are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses from the sale of investment securities available for sale are determined using the specific identification method and are included in noninterest income. Also, when applicable, realized gains and losses are reported as a reclassification adjustment, net of tax, in other comprehensive income.
Available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position are evaluated, at least quarterly, for impairment related to credit losses. The Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For debt securities available for sale that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any
changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, and the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security is less than the amortized cost basis, an allowance for credit losses is recorded. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recorded in other comprehensive income. Accrued interest receivable on investment securities available for sale totaled $5.1 million and $4.3 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets. The estimate of credit losses excludes this accrued interest receivable. There was no allowance for credit losses recorded on investment securities available for sale at December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Equity Securities
Investments in stock of a publicly traded company or in mutual funds are classified as equity securities. Equity securities are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in noninterest income.
Nonmarketable Equity Securities
Nonmarketable equity securities include the Bank’s required investments in the stock of the FHLB and the FRB. The Bank is a member of the FHLB system as well as its regional FRB. Members of the FHLB are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors. FHLB stock and FRB stock are both carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash dividends and stock dividends are reported as interest income.
Loans
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are classified as portfolio loans. Portfolio loans are carried at the principal balance outstanding, net of purchase premiums and discounts, and deferred loan fees and costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Accrued interest receivable on loans totaled $20.2 million and $29.9 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets.
Interest income on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued and the loan is placed on nonaccrual status at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well secured and in process of collection. Mortgage loans are charged-off at 180 days past due, and commercial loans are charged-off to the extent principal or interest is deemed uncollectible. Consumer loans continue to accrue interest until they are charged-off or at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cost-recovery or cash-basis method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Under the cost-recovery method, interest income is not recognized until the loan balance is reduced to zero. Under the cash-basis method, interest income is recorded when the payment is received in cash. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Leases. The Company provides financing leases to small businesses for purchases of business equipment. Under the direct financing method of accounting, the minimum lease payments to be received under the lease contract, together with the guaranteed residual values, which range from 1% to 45% of the cost of related equipment which average 3%, are recorded as lease receivables when the lease is signed and the leased property is delivered to the customer. The excess of the minimum lease payments and residual values over the cost of the equipment is recorded as unearned lease income. Unearned lease income is recognized over the term of the lease on a basis that results in an approximately level rate of return on the unrecovered lease investment.
PCD Loans. In the past the Company has purchased loans, some of which have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. Purchased credit deteriorated loans are recorded at the amount paid. An allowance for credit losses on loans is determined using the same methodology as other loans held for investment. The initial allowance for credit losses on loans determined on a collective basis is allocated to individual loans. The sum of the loan’s purchase price and allowance for credit losses on loans becomes its initial amortized cost basis. The difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the par value of the loan is a noncredit discount or premium, which is amortized into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent changes to the allowance for credit losses on loans are recorded through provision expense for credit losses.
Nonperforming Loans. A loan is considered nonperforming when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Nonperforming loans include loans on nonaccrual status and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
The allowance for credit losses on loans is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. The amount of the allowance represents management's best estimate of current expected credit losses on loans considering available information, from internal and external sources, relevant to assessing collectability over the loans' contractual terms, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate.
Management estimates the allowance balance using relevant information, from internal and external sources, relating to historical credit loss experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. While historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses, adjustments to historical loss information may be made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics, environmental conditions or other relevant factors.
The allowance for credit losses on loans is measured on a collective basis and reflects impairment in groups of loans aggregated on the basis of similar risk characteristics. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis and excluded from the collective evaluation. Expected credit losses for collateral dependent loans, including loans where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty but foreclosure is not probable, are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate.
In calculating the allowance for credit losses, most loans are segmented into pools based upon similar characteristics and risk profiles and measured on a collective basis. Common characteristics and risk profiles may include internal credit ratings, risk ratings or classification, financial asset type, collateral type, size, industry of the borrower, historical or expected credit loss patterns, and reasonable and supportable forecast periods. We periodically reassess each pool to ensure the loans within the pool continue to share similar characteristics and risk profiles and to determine whether further segmentation is necessary.
The table below identifies the Company’s loan portfolio segments and classes.

For each loan pool, we measure expected credit losses over the life of each loan utilizing a combination of models which measure (i) probability of default, the likelihood that loan will stop performing or default, (ii) loss given default, the expected loss rate for loans in default, (iii) assumed prepayment speed, the likelihood that a loan will prepay or pay-off prior to maturity, and (iv) exposure at default, the estimated outstanding principal balance of the loans upon default, including the expected funding of unfunded commitments outstanding as of the measurement date.
Expected credit losses are calculated as the product of probability of default (adjusted for prepayment), loss given default and exposure at default. This methodology builds on default probabilities already incorporated into our risk grading process by utilizing pool-specific historical loss rates to calculate expected credit losses. These pool-specific historical loss rates may be adjusted for current macroeconomic assumptions, as further discussed below, and other factors such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or when historical asset terms do not reflect the contractual terms of the financial assets being evaluated as of the measurement date. Each time we measure expected credit losses, we assess the relevancy of historical loss information and consider any necessary adjustments to address any differences in asset-specific characteristics.
The measurement of expected credit losses is impacted by loan and borrower attributes and certain macroeconomic variables. Significant loan and borrower attributes utilized in our modeling processes include, among other things, (i) origination date, (ii) maturity date, (iii) payment type, (iv) collateral type and amount, (v) current risk grade, (vi) current unpaid balance and commitment utilization rate, (vii) payment status and delinquency history and (viii) expected recoveries of previously charged-off amounts. Significant macroeconomic variables utilized in our modeling processes include, among other things, (i) Gross Domestic Product, (ii) Consumer Price Index, (iii) selected market interest rates including U.S. Treasury rates, (iv) commercial and residential property prices and unemployment rates in Illinois and the U.S. as a whole, and (v) Retail Sales for the State of Illinois.
We have determined that we are reasonably able to forecast the macroeconomic variables used in our modeling processes with an acceptable degree of confidence for a total of two years with the last twelve months of the forecast period encompassing a reversion process whereby the forecasted macroeconomic variables are reverted to their historical mean utilizing a straight line basis. The macroeconomic variables utilized as inputs in our modeling processes were subjected to a variety of analysis procedures and were selected primarily based on statistical relevancy and correlation to our historical credit losses. By reverting these modeling inputs to their historical mean and considering loan and borrower specific attributes, our models are intended to yield a measurement of expected credit losses that reflects our average historical loss rates for periods subsequent to the twelve-month reversion period. The LGD is based on historical recovery averages for each loan pool, adjusted to reflect the current impact of certain macroeconomic variables as well as their expected changes over a two-year forecast period, with the final twelve months of the forecast period encompassing a reversion process, which management considers to be both reasonable and supportable. The same forecast and reversion periods are used for all macroeconomic variables in our models.
Management qualitatively adjusts model results for risk factors that are not considered within our modeling processes but are nonetheless relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within our loan pools. These Q-Factor adjustments may increase or decrease management's estimate of expected credit losses by a calculated percentage or amount based upon the estimated level of risk. The various risks that may be considered in making Q-Factor adjustments include, among other things, the impact of (i) changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and practices for collections, charge-offs, and recoveries, (ii) actual and expected changes in economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the loan pools, (iii) changes in the nature and volume of the loan pools and in the terms of the underlying loans, (iv) changes in the experience, ability, and depth of our lending management and staff, (v) changes in volume and severity of past due financial assets, the volume of non-accrual assets, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded assets, (vi) changes in the quality of our credit review function, (vii) changes in the value of the underlying collateral for loans that are non-collateral dependent, (viii) the existence, growth, and effect of any concentrations of credit and (ix) other factors such as the regulatory, legal and technological environments; competition; and events such as natural disasters or health pandemics.
In some cases, management may determine that an individual loan exhibits unique risk characteristics which differentiate the loan from other loans within our loan pools. In such cases, the loans are evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis and excluded from the collective evaluation. Specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses are determined by analyzing the borrower’s ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies, the relative risk grade of the loan and economic conditions affecting the borrower’s industry, among other things. A loan is considered to be collateral dependent when, based upon management's assessment, the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. In such cases, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date, adjusted for estimated selling costs if satisfaction of the loan depends on the sale of the collateral. We reevaluate the fair value of collateral supporting collateral dependent loans on a quarterly basis.
Specific reserves reflect expected credit losses on loans identified for evaluation or individually considered nonperforming. These loans no longer have similar risk characteristics to collectively evaluated loans due to changes in credit risk, borrower circumstances, recognition of write-offs, or cash collections that have been fully applied to principal on the basis of nonaccrual policies. At a minimum, the population of loans subject to individual evaluation include individual loans where it is probable we will be unable to collect all amounts due, according to the original contractual terms. These include nonaccrual loans with a balance greater than $500,000, accruing loans 90 days past due or greater with a balance greater than $100,000, specialty lending relationships and other loans as determined by management. Allowance for credit losses for consumer and residential loans are, primarily, determined by meaningful pools of similar loans and are evaluated on a quarterly basis.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale consist of residential mortgage loans originated with the intent to sell as well as the GreenSky portfolio which the Company had committed to a plan to sell at December 31, 2024. Prior to 2023, loans held for sale also
included commercial FHA mortgage loans originated with the intent to sell. Loans held for sale are carried at fair value, determined individually, as of the balance sheet date. The Company believes the fair value method better reflects the economic risks associated with these loans. Fair value measurements on loans held for sale are based on quoted market prices for similar loans in the secondary market, market quotes from anticipated sales contracts and commitments, or contract prices from firm sales commitments. The changes in the fair value of loans held for sale are reflected in noninterest income on the consolidated statements of income.
Mortgage Repurchase Reserve
The Company sells residential mortgage loans to investors in the normal course of business. Residential mortgage loans sold to investors are predominantly conventional residential first lien mortgages originated under our usual underwriting procedures, and are sold on a nonrecourse basis. The Company’s agreements to sell residential mortgage loans usually require general representations and warranties on the underlying loans sold, related to credit information, loan documentation, collateral, and insurability, which if subsequently untrue or breached, could require the Company to indemnify or repurchase certain loans affected. The balance in the repurchase reserve at the balance sheet date reflects the estimated amount of potential loss the Company could incur from repurchasing a loan, as well as loss reimbursements, indemnification, and other “make whole” settlement resolutions. There were no losses as a result of make-whole requests and loan repurchases for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. The liability for unresolved repurchase demands totaled $0.1 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Premises and Equipment
Premises, furniture and equipment, and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the life of the asset or the lease term. Estimated useful lives for premises range from 10 to 40 years and for equipment range from 3 to 10 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses as incurred, while improvements that extend the useful life of assets are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated remaining life.
We periodically review the carrying value of our long-lived assets to determine if impairment has occurred or whether changes in circumstances have occurred that would require a revision to the remaining useful life. In making such determination, we evaluate the performance, on an undiscounted basis, of the underlying operations or assets which give rise to such amount.
Operating Lease Right of Use Assets and Liabilities
The Company determines if a lease is present at the inception of an agreement. Operating leases are capitalized at commencement and are discounted using the Company’s FHLB borrowing rate for a similar term borrowing unless the lease defines an implicit rate within the contract.
The operating lease right of use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and the operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right of use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized on the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. No significant judgments or assumptions were involved in developing the estimated operating lease liabilities as the Company’s operating lease liabilities largely represent future rental expenses associated with operating leases and the borrowing rates are based on publicly available interest rates.
Other Real Estate Owned
OREO represents properties acquired through foreclosure or other proceedings and is initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure less estimated costs of disposal, which establishes a new cost basis. After foreclosure, OREO is held for sale and is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs of disposal. Any write-down to fair value at the time of transfer to OREO is charged to the allowance for credit losses on loans. Fair value for OREO is based on an appraisal performed upon foreclosure. Property is evaluated regularly to ensure the recorded amount is supported by its fair value less estimated costs to dispose. After the initial foreclosure appraisal, fair value is generally determined by an annual appraisal unless known events warrant adjustments to the recorded value. Revenue from the operations of OREO is included in other income in the consolidated statements of income, and expense and decreases in valuations are included in other real estate owned expense in the consolidated statements of income.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill resulting from a business combination is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed.
Testing of goodwill impairment comprises a two-step process. The testing is performed on each of the two reporting units, the Banking reporting unit and the Wealth Management reporting unit. First, the Company performs a qualitative assessment to evaluate relevant events or circumstances to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that an impairment has occurred, it proceeds to the quantitative impairment test, whereby it calculates the fair value of the reporting unit and compares it with its carrying amount, including goodwill. In its performance of impairment testing, the Company has the unconditional option to proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test, bypassing the qualitative assessment. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value, up to the carrying value of goodwill, is recorded through earnings as an impairment charge. If the results of the qualitative assessment indicate that it is not more likely than not that an impairment has occurred, or if the quantitative impairment test results in a fair value of the reporting unit that is greater than the carrying amount, then no impairment charge is recorded.
Annually, the Company performs an impairment test of goodwill as of August 31. During the year ended December 31, 2024, management performed quarterly qualitative assessments and an annual qualitative impairment test, as a result of the economic uncertainty and increased market volatility resulting from the elevated interest rate environment. The Company's annual impairment test of goodwill and other intangible assets did not identify any impairment.
The Company performed a quantitative impairment test on its Banking reporting unit as of December 31, 2024. The Company engaged a third-party service provider to assist Management with the determination of the fair value of the Company in the fourth quarter of 2024. The resulting calculation indicated that the fair value exceeded the carrying amount of the Company's Banking reporting unit by approximately 7% as of December 31, 2024, which resulted in a determination of no impairment loss.
Significant judgment is necessary in the determination of the fair value of a reporting unit. The income valuation methodology requires an estimation of future cash flows, considering the after-tax results of operations, the extent and timing of credit losses, and appropriate discount and growth rates. Actual future cash flows may differ from forecasted results based on the assumptions used.
In performing the discounted cash flow analysis, the Company utilized multi-year cash projections that rely on internal forecasts of loan and deposit growth, bond mix, financing composition, market pricing of securities, credit performance, forward interest rates, future returns driven by net interest margin, fee generation and expense incurrence, industry and economic trends, and other relevant considerations. The long-term growth rate used in the calculation of fair value was derived from published projections of the inflation rate, along with Management estimates.
The discount rate was calculated as the cost of equity capital using the modified capital asset pricing model, which includes variables including the risk-free interest rate, beta, equity risk premium, size premium, and company-specific risk premium.
Other intangible assets, which consist of core deposit and acquired customer relationship intangible assets, are typically amortized over a period ranging from 1 to 20 years using an accelerated method of amortization. On a periodic basis, we evaluate events and circumstances that may indicate a change in the recoverability of the carrying value.
Loan Servicing Rights
When loans are sold with servicing retained, a servicing rights asset is capitalized, which represents the, then current, fair value of future net cash flows expected to be realized for performing servicing activities. Loan servicing rights are carried at the lower of the initial capitalized amount, net of accumulated amortization, or estimated fair value.
Loan servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. The fair value of loan servicing rights and their sensitivity to changes in interest rates is influenced by the mix of the servicing portfolio and characteristics of each segment of the portfolio. The Company’s servicing portfolio consists of distinct portfolios of government-insured residential and commercial mortgages, conventional residential mortgages and SBA loans. The Company periodically evaluates
its loan servicing rights asset for impairment. Impairment is assessed based on the fair value of net servicing cash flows at each reporting date using estimated prepayment speeds of the underlying loans serviced and stratifications based on the risk characteristics of the underlying loans. To the extent the amortized cost of the mortgage servicing rights exceeds the estimated fair value by stratification, the Company records an impairment expense and reduces the carrying value of the loan servicing rights.
We recognize revenue from servicing residential mortgages, commercial FHA mortgages, and SBA loans as earned based on the specific contractual terms. This revenue, along with amortization of and changes in impairment on servicing rights, is reported in residential mortgage banking revenue and other noninterest income, respectively, in the consolidated statements of income.
Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance Policies
We have purchased life insurance policies on the lives of certain officers and key employees and are the owner and beneficiary of the policies. These policies provide an efficient form of funding for long-term retirement and other employee benefits costs. These policies are recorded as cash surrender value of life insurance policies in the consolidated balance sheets at each policy’s respective cash surrender value, adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement, with changes in value recorded in noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.
Credit Enhancement Asset
The Company is party to third-party loan origination programs. As part of these programs the third-party providers offer various credit enhancements with respect to loans originated under the programs, including contributions to reserve accounts, yield maintenance and certain other payments. In accordance with accounting guidance, we estimate and record an allowance for expected losses for these loans. When the allowance for credit losses on loans is recorded, a credit enhancement derivative is also recorded on the balance sheet with a corresponding entry to noninterest income in recognition of the partner's legal commitment to indemnify or reimburse the Company. The credit enhancement asset is relieved as credit enhancement payments and recoveries are received from the partner or taken from the partner's cash reserve account.
Derivative Financial Instruments
At the inception of a derivative contract, the Company designates the derivative as one of three types based on the intentions and belief as to likely effectiveness as a hedge. These three types are (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment ("fair value hedge"), (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability ("cash flow hedge"), or (3) instruments that do not meet the accounting definition of a hedge. For a fair value hedge, 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 current earnings as fair values change. For a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the same periods during with the hedged transaction affects earnings.
All derivatives are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet as a component of other assets or other liabilities at their fair value. On the date the derivative contract is entered into, the derivative is designated as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability cash flow hedge. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is highly effective as, and that is designated and qualifies as, a cash flow hedge are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows (e.g., when periodic settlements on a variable-rate asset or liability are recorded in earnings).
We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedged transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or forecasted transactions. We also formally assess, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows or fair value of hedged items.
Hedge accounting is prospectively discontinued when (a) it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of a hedged item (including forecasted transactions); (b) the derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised; (c) the derivative is no longer designated as a hedge instrument because it is unlikely that a forecasted transaction will occur; or (d) management determines that designation of the derivative as a hedge instrument is no longer appropriate.
When hedge accounting is discontinued because it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, the derivative will continue to be carried on the consolidated balance sheet at its fair value, and gains and losses that were in accumulated other comprehensive income will be recognized immediately in earnings. In all other situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued, the derivative will be carried at its fair value on the consolidated balance sheet, with subsequent changes in its fair value recognized in current-period earnings.
The Company also enters into interest rate lock commitments, which are agreements to originate mortgage loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding and the customers have locked into that interest rate. Interest rate lock commitments for mortgage loans that will be held for sale are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet with changes in fair value reflected in residential mortgage banking revenue. The Company also has forward loan sales commitments related to its interest rate lock commitments and its loans held for sale. Forward loan sales commitments that meet the definition of a derivative are recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet with changes in fair value reflected in residential mortgage banking revenue.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Unfunded Commitments
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into credit-related financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. The notional amount of these commitments is not reflected in the consolidated financial statements until they are funded.
The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense on the consolidated income statement. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. Expected utilization rates are compared to the current funded portion of the total commitment amount as a practical expedient for funded exposure at default. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments totaled $4.6 million and $3.5 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Income Taxes
We file consolidated federal and state income tax returns, with each organization computing its taxes on a separate return basis. The provision for income taxes is based on income as reported in the consolidated financial statements.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary, it is our policy to record such accruals in other income or expense. The Company evaluated its tax positions and concluded that it had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment in the consolidated financial statements.
Share-Based Compensation Plans
Compensation cost for share-based payment awards is based on the fair value of the award at the date of grant. The fair value of stock options is estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock is determined based on the Company’s current market price on the date of grant. Compensation cost is recognized in the consolidated financial statements on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally defined as the vesting period. Additionally, the Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus transactions and other occurrences that are the result of non-owner changes in equity. Non-owner equity changes include unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities and changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges. These are components of comprehensive income and do not have an impact on the Company’s net income.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share are calculated utilizing the two-class method. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock awards.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Assets held for customers in a fiduciary or agency capacity, other than trust cash on deposit with the Bank, are not assets of the Company and, accordingly, are not included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

At December 31, 2024, 295 investment securities available for sale had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of 10.82% from their amortized cost basis. For all of the above investment securities, the unrealized losses were generally due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions, and unrealized losses were considered to be temporary as the fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their respective maturity dates and principal is paid back in full. The Company does not intend to sell and it is likely that the Company will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery.

Classifications of Loan Portfolio
The Company monitors and assesses the credit risk of its loan portfolio using the classes set forth below. These classes also represent the segments by which the Company monitors the performance of its loan portfolio and estimates its allowance for credit losses on loans.
Commercial—Loans to varying types of businesses, including municipalities, school districts and nonprofit organizations, for the purpose of supporting working capital, operational needs and term financing of equipment. Repayment of such loans is generally provided through operating cash flows of the business. Commercial loans are predominately secured by equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, and other sources of repayment.
Commercial real estate—Loans secured by real estate occupied by the borrower for ongoing operations, including loans to borrowers engaged in agricultural production, and non-owner occupied real estate leased to one or more tenants, including commercial office, industrial, special purpose, retail and multi-family residential real estate loans.
Construction and land development—Secured loans for the construction of business and residential properties. Real estate construction loans often convert to a real estate commercial loan at the completion of the construction period. Secured development loans are made to borrowers for the purpose of infrastructure improvements to vacant land to create finished marketable residential and commercial lots/land. Most land development loans are originated with the intention that the loans will be paid through the sale of developed lots/land by the developers within twelve months of the completion date. Interest reserves may be established on real estate construction loans.
Residential real estate—Loans, secured by residential properties, that generally do not qualify for secondary market sale; however, the risk to return and/or overall relationship are considered acceptable to the Company. This category also includes loans whereby consumers utilize equity in their personal residence, generally through a second mortgage, as collateral to secure the loan.
Consumer—Loans to consumers primarily for the purpose of home improvements or acquiring automobiles, recreational vehicles and boats. Consumer loans consist of relatively small amounts that are spread across many individual borrowers.
Lease financing—Our leasing business provides financing leases to varying types of businesses, nationwide, for purchases of business equipment. The financing is secured by a first priority interest in the financed assets and generally requires monthly payments.
Commercial, commercial real estate, and construction and land development loans are collectively referred to as the Company’s commercial loan portfolio, while residential real estate, consumer loans and lease financing receivables are collectively referred to as the Company’s other loan portfolio.
We have extended loans to certain of our directors, executive officers, principal shareholders and their affiliates. These loans were made in the ordinary course of business upon substantially the same terms as comparable transactions with non-insiders, including collateralization and interest rates prevailing at the time. The new loans, other additions, repayments and other reductions for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, are summarized as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Years Ended December 31, |

The Company utilizes a combination of models which measure probability of default and loss given default in determining expected future credit losses.
The probability of default is the risk that the borrower will be unable or unwilling to repay its debt in full or on time. The risk of default is derived by analyzing the obligor’s capacity to repay the debt in accordance with contractual terms. Probability of default is generally associated with financial characteristics such as inadequate cash flow to service debt, declining revenues or operating margins, high leverage, declining or marginal liquidity, and the inability to successfully implement a business plan. In addition to these quantifiable factors, the borrower’s willingness to repay also must be evaluated.
The probability of default is forecasted, for most commercial and retail loans, using a regression model that determines the likelihood of default within the twelve month time horizon. The regression model uses forward-looking economic forecasts including variables such as gross domestic product, housing price index, and real disposable income to predict default rates.
The loss given default component is the percentage of defaulted loan balance that is ultimately charged off. As a method for estimating the allowance, a form of migration analysis is used that combines the estimated probability of loans experiencing default events and the losses ultimately associated with the loans experiencing those defaults. Multiplying one by the other gives the Company its loss rate, which is then applied to the loan portfolio balance to determine expected future losses.
Within the model, the loss given default approach produces segmented loss given default estimates using a loss curve methodology, which is based on historical net losses from charge-off and recovery information. The main principle of a loss curve model is that the loss follows a steady timing schedule based on how long the defaulted loan has been on the books.
The Company’s expected loss estimate is anchored in historical credit loss experience, with an emphasis on all available portfolio data. The Company’s historical look-back period includes January 2012 through the current period on a monthly basis. When historical credit loss experience is not sufficient for a specific portfolio, the Company may supplement its own portfolio data with external models or data.
Historical data is evaluated in multiple components of the expected credit loss, including the reasonable and supportable forecast and the post-reversion period of each loan segment. The historical experience is used to infer probability of default and loss given default in the reasonable and supportable forecast period. In the post-reversion period, long-term average loss rates are segmented by loan pool.
Qualitative reserves reflect management’s overall estimate of the extent to which current expected credit losses on collectively evaluated loans will differ from historical loss experience. The analysis takes into consideration other analytics performed within the organization, such as enterprise and concentration management, along with other credit-related analytics as deemed appropriate. Management attempts to quantify qualitative reserves whenever possible.
The Company segments the loan portfolio into pools based on the following risk characteristics: financial asset type, collateral type, loan characteristics, credit characteristics, outstanding loan balances, contractual terms and prepayment assumptions, industry of borrower and concentrations, historical or expected credit loss patterns, and reasonable and supportable forecast periods. Within the probability of default segmentation, credit metrics are identified to further segment the financial assets. The Company utilizes risk ratings for the commercial portfolios and days past due for the consumer and the lease financing portfolios.
The Company has defined five transitioning risk states for each asset pool within the expected credit loss model. The below table illustrates the transition matrix:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Risk state | | Commercial loans risk rating | | Consumer loans and equipment finance loans and leases days past due |
1 | | 0-5 | | 0-14 |
2 | | 6 | | 15-29 |
3 | | 7 | | 30-59 |
4 | | 8 | | 60-89 |
Default | | 9+ and nonaccrual | | 90+ and nonaccrual |
Expected Credit Losses
In calculating expected credit losses, the Company individually evaluates loans on nonaccrual status with a balance greater than $500,000, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, and loans that do not share similar risk characteristics with other loans in the pool.
The following table presents the amortized cost basis of individually evaluated loans on nonaccrual status as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

There was no interest income recognized on nonaccrual loans during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 while the loans were in nonaccrual status. Additional interest income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans had they been current in accordance with their original terms was $9.6 million, $3.4 million and $2.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Collateral Dependent Financial Assets
A collateral dependent financial asset is a loan that relies solely on the operation or sale of the collateral for repayment. In evaluating the overall risk associated with a loan, the Company considers character, overall financial condition and resources, and payment record of the borrower; the prospects for support from any financially responsible guarantors; and the nature and degree of protection provided by the cash flow and value of any underlying collateral. However, as other sources of repayment become inadequate over time, the significance of the collateral’s value increases and the loan may become collateral dependent.

Loan Restructurings
The Company may offer various types of concessions when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties that result in a direct change in the timing or amount of contractual cash flows including principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, term extensions, and combinations of the listed modifications. Commercial loans modified in a loan restructuring often involve temporary interest-only payments, term extensions, and converting revolving credit lines to term loans. Additional collateral, a co-borrower, or a guarantor is often requested.
Loans modified in a loan restructuring for the Company may have the financial effect of increasing the specific allowance associated with the loan. An allowance for loans that have been modified in a loan restructuring is measured based on the probability of default and loss given default model, the loan's observable market price, or the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs, if the loan is collateral dependent. Management exercises significant judgment in developing these estimates.
Commercial and consumer loans modified in a loan restructuring are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future default. If loans modified in a loan restructuring subsequently default, the Company evaluates the loan for possible further loss. The allowance may be increased, adjustments may be made in the allocation of the allowance, or partial charge-offs may be taken to further write-down the carrying value of the loan.

Credit Quality Monitoring
The Company maintains loan policies and credit underwriting standards as part of the process of managing credit risk. These standards include making loans generally within the Company’s four geographic regions. In addition, our specialty finance division does nationwide bridge lending for FHA and HUD developments and originates loans for multifamily, assisted and senior living and multi-use properties. Our equipment leasing business provides financing to business customers across the country.
The Company has a loan approval process involving underwriting and individual and group loan approval authorities to consider credit quality and loss exposure at loan origination. The loans in the Company’s commercial loan portfolio are risk rated at origination based on the grading system set forth below. All loan authority is based on the aggregate credit to a borrower and its related entities.
The Company’s consumer loan portfolio is primarily comprised of both secured and unsecured loans that are relatively small and are evaluated at origination on a centralized basis against standardized underwriting criteria. The ongoing measurement of credit quality of the consumer loan portfolio is largely done on an exception basis. If payments are made on schedule, as agreed, then no further monitoring is performed. However, if delinquency occurs, the delinquent loans are turned over to the Company’s Consumer Collections Group for resolution. Credit quality for the entire consumer loan portfolio is measured by the periodic delinquency rate, nonaccrual amounts and actual losses incurred.
Loans in the commercial loan portfolio tend to be larger and more complex than those in the other loan portfolio, and therefore, are subject to more intensive monitoring. All loans in the commercial loan portfolio have an assigned relationship manager, and most borrowers provide periodic financial and operating information that allows the relationship managers to stay abreast of credit quality during the life of the loans. The risk ratings of loans in the commercial loan portfolio are reassessed at least annually, with loans below an acceptable risk rating reassessed more frequently and reviewed by various individuals within the Company at least quarterly.
The Company maintains a centralized independent loan review function that monitors the approval process and ongoing asset quality of the loan portfolio, including the accuracy of loan grades. The Company also maintains an independent appraisal review function that participates in the review of all appraisals obtained by the Company.
Credit Quality Indicators
The Company uses a ten grade risk rating system to monitor the ongoing credit quality of its commercial loan portfolio. These loan grades rank the credit quality of a borrower by measuring liquidity, debt capacity, and coverage and payment behavior as shown in the borrower’s financial statements. The risk grades also measure the quality of the borrower’s management and the repayment support offered by any guarantors.
The Company considers all loans with Risk Grades 1 - 6 as acceptable credit risks and structures and manages such relationships accordingly. Periodic financial and operating data combined with regular loan officer interactions are deemed adequate to monitor borrower performance. Loans with Risk Grades of 7 are considered "watch credits" categorized as special mention and the frequency of loan officer contact and receipt of financial data is increased to stay abreast of borrower performance. Loans with Risk Grades of 8 - 10 are considered problematic and require special care. Risk Grade 8 is categorized as substandard, 9 as substandard - nonaccrual and 10 as doubtful. Further, loans with Risk Grades of 7 - 10 are managed regularly through a number of processes, procedures and committees, including oversight by a loan administration committee comprised of executive and senior management of the Company, which includes highly structured reporting of financial and operating data, intensive loan officer intervention and strategies to exit, as well as potential management by the Company's Special Assets Group. Loans not graded in the commercial loan portfolio are monitored by aging status and payment activity.
As discussed previously in Loan Restructurings, the Company does provide various types of concessions when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties that result in a direct change in the timing or amount of contractual cash flows. Modified loans with terms at least as favorable to the lender as the terms for other customers with similar collection risks and with terms that are more than minor compared to the original terms are treated as a new loan to the borrower.

The Company evaluates the credit quality of its other loan portfolios, which includes residential real estate, consumer and lease financing loans, based primarily on the aging status of the loan and payment activity. Accordingly, loans on nonaccrual status and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are considered to be nonperforming for purposes of credit quality evaluation. The following tables present the recorded investment of our other loan portfolio based on the credit risk profile of loans that are performing and loans that are nonperforming as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Commercial FHA Mortgage Loan Servicing
The fair value of commercial FHA loan servicing rights is determined using key assumptions, representing both general economic and other published information, including the assumed earnings rates related to escrow and replacement reserves, and the weighted average characteristics of the commercial portfolio, including the prepayment rate and discount rate. The prepayment rate considered many factors as appropriate, including lockouts, balloons, prepayment penalties, interest rate ranges, delinquencies, and geographic location. The discount rate was based on an average pre-tax internal rate of return utilized by market participants in pricing the servicing portfolio. Significant increases or decreases in any one of these assumptions would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. The weighted average prepayment rate and weighted average discount rate was 10.00% and 8.18% at December 31, 2024.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company enters into derivative instruments, which may include interest rate swaps and interest rate options, in connection with our risk-management activities. Our primary objective for using derivative financial instruments is to manage interest rate risk associated with our fixed-rate and variable-rate assets and liabilities.
Interest Rate Risk
We monitor our mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate assets and liabilities and may enter into interest rate swaps, forwards, and options to achieve a more desired mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate assets and liabilities. We execute these trades to modify our exposure to interest rate risk by converting certain fixed-rate instruments to a variable-rate and certain variable-rate instruments to a fixed-rate. We use a mix of both derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting treatment and economic hedges that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.
Derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting treatment can include receive-fixed swaps designated as fair value hedges of specific fixed-rate unsecured debt obligations, receive-fixed swaps designated as fair value hedges of specific fixed-rate FHLB advances, and pay-fixed swaps designated as fair value hedges of securities within our available-for-sale portfolio. Other derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting consist of interest rate floor contracts designated as cash flow hedges of the expected future cash flows in the form of interest receipts on a portion of our commercial and commercial real estate loans. Both the fair value hedges and cash flow hedges were determined to be effective during all periods presented and the Company expects the hedges to remain effective during the remaining terms of the swaps.
We have the ability to execute economic hedges, which could consist of interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, forwards, and options to mitigate interest rate risk.
We also enter into interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments that are executed as part of our mortgage business that do not meet the accounting definition of hedges, as well as interest rate swap contracts sold to commercial customers who wish to modify their interest rate sensitivity. These swaps are offset by contracts simultaneously purchased by the Company from other financial dealer institutions with mirror-image terms. Because of the mirror-image terms of the offsetting contracts, in addition to collateral provisions which mitigate the impact of non-performance risk, changes in the fair value subsequent to initial recognition have a minimal effect on earnings.
Balance Sheet Presentation
The following table summarizes the fair value of derivative instruments reported on our consolidated balance sheet. The amounts are presented on a gross basis, are segregated by derivatives that are designated and qualifying as hedging instruments or those that are not, and are further segregated by type of contract within those two categories. Derivative assets and derivative liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheet.
Notional amounts are reference amounts from which contractual obligations are derived and are not recorded on the balance sheet. In our view, derivative notional is not an accurate measure of our derivative exposure when viewed in isolation from other factors, such as market rate fluctuations and counterparty credit risk.

Credit Enhancement Derivatives
The Company has recognized derivative instruments associated with agreements entered into with third-party providers that support loan programs for which the Company originates and holds loans on its balance sheet. These third-party agreements include contractual credit enhancements that transfer certain risks and benefits to or from the Company, resulting in recognition of a derivative. The value of these derivatives consists primarily of two components: (1) the credit loss reimbursement value, representing the present value of expected future payments from the third party for loan losses, and (2) the interest yield guarantee value, representing the present value of cash flows the Company expects to receive to ensure a minimum yield (e.g., Prime + 2%) on the portfolio when actual borrower payments fall short. Under certain programs, additional features such as reimbursement for waived promotional interest are also included in the derivative valuation.
The fair value of these derivative instruments was $16.8 million and $15.4 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company utilizes a third-party valuation specialist to estimate fair value using the income approach, based on the present value of expected future cash flows. The valuation relies on Level 3 unobservable inputs, including assumptions regarding credit loss rates, borrower prepayments, program yield performance, and discount rates. Changes in fair value are recorded in noninterest income, and the Company does not apply hedge accounting to these instruments
The following table summarizes the most significant inputs and assumptions in determining the value of the credit enhancement derivatives as well as the resulting fair value as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

The value of subordinated debentures have been reduced by the debt issuance costs, which are being amortized on a straight line basis through the earlier of the redemption option or maturity date. All of the subordinated debentures above may be included in Tier 2 capital (with certain limitations applicable) under current regulatory guidelines and interpretations.
NOTE 12 – TRUST PREFERRED DEBENTURES
The Company formed Midland Trust, a statutory trust under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. Midland Trust issued a pool of $10.0 million of floating rate cumulative trust preferred securities with a liquidation amount of $1,000 per security. The Company issued $10.3 million of subordinated debentures to the Midland Trust in exchange for ownership of all the common securities of the Midland Trust.
In addition, the Company assumed the obligations of subordinated debentures in conjunction with the acquisitions of Grant Park Bancshares, Inc., Love Savings Holding Company, and Centrue Financial Corporation. The subordinated debentures were issued to Grant Park Statutory Trust I, Love Savings/Heartland Capital Trust III, Love Savings/Heartland Capital Trust IV and Centrue Statutory Trust II and were recorded by the Company at fair value at the acquisition date with the discount amortizing into interest expense over the life of the liability.
The Company is not considered the primary beneficiary of the trusts; therefore, the trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements, but rather the subordinated debentures, net of unamortized purchase discount, are shown as liabilities. The Company’s investments in the common stock of the trusts, totaling $1.9 million, are included in other assets.
The following table summarizes the terms of each issuance:

For all of the debentures mentioned above, interest is payable quarterly. The debentures and the common securities issued by each of the trusts are redeemable in whole or in part on dates each quarter at the redemption price plus interest accrued to the redemption date, as specified in the trust indenture document. The debentures are also redeemable in whole or in part from time to time upon the occurrence of “special events” defined within the indenture document. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company may, from time to time, defer subordinated debenture interest payments, which would result in a deferral of distribution payments on the related trust preferred securities, and, with certain exceptions, prevent the Company from declaring or paying cash distributions on common stock or debt securities that rank pari passu or junior to the subordinated debentures.
All of the trust preferred debentures above may be included in Tier 1 capital (with certain limitations applicable) under current regulatory guidelines and interpretations.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the accumulation of the prior year’s earnings representing tax bad debt deductions was approximately $3.1 million for both years. If these tax bad debt reserves were charged for losses other than bad debt losses, the Company would be required to recognize taxable income in the amount of the charge. It is not expected that such tax-restricted retained earnings will be used in a manner that would create federal income tax liabilities.
The Company had $29.7 million of federal net operating loss carryforwards expiring 2025 through 2035, $13.3 million of Illinois post-apportioned net operating loss carryforwards expiring 2029 and 2030, $29.7 million of Missouri pre-apportioned net operating loss carryforwards expiring 2025 through 2035, and $5.2 million of other state net operating loss carryforwards expiring 2029 through 2044, at December 31, 2024. The utilization of the federal and Missouri net operating losses are subject to the limitations of Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The utilization of the Illinois net operating loss is limited to $100,000 per year for years 2021 through 2023 and $500,000 in 2024, and years under which net operating losses are suspended do not count toward the number of carryforward years.
The Company has state tax credit carryforwards of $0.9 million with a five year carryforward period, expiring between 2025 and 2029. Any amounts that are expected to expire before being fully utilized have been accounted for through a valuation allowance as discussed below.
The deferred tax asset associated with the unrealized losses on securities is mainly a result of changes in interest rates, and the unrealized losses are considered to be temporary as the fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their respective maturity dates.
We had no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and did not recognize any increase of unrecognized benefits during 2024 relative to any tax positions taken during the year.
Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary, it is our policy to record such accruals in other income or expense; no such accruals existed as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Future realization of the tax benefit of an existing deductible temporary difference or carryforward ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character within the carryback or carryforward period available under the tax law. All available evidence, both positive and negative, should be considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed. At December 31, 2024, the Company concluded, based on all available evidence, a valuation allowance was needed for the Company’s deferred tax asset related to capital loss carry forwards. An addition was made to the $244,000 valuation allowance from December 31, 2023 in the amount of $43,000, resulting in a valuation allowance of $287,000 at December 31, 2024 for the estimated capital losses that will not be able to be utilized in the future. For the Company's remaining deferred tax assets, based on our taxpaying history and estimates of taxable income over the years in which the items giving rise to the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these deductible differences.
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of various states. Years that remain open for potential review by the Internal Revenue Service are 2021 through 2023 and by state taxing authorities are 2020 through 2023.
NOTE 15 – RETIREMENT PLANS
Profit Sharing Plan
We sponsor the Midland States Bank 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, which provides retirement benefits to substantially all of our employees. The 401(k) component of the plan allows participants to defer a portion of their compensation ranging from 1% to 100%. Such deferrals accumulate on a tax deferred basis until the participant withdraws the funds. The Company matches 50% of participant contributions up to 6% of their compensation. Total expense recorded for the Company match was $1.9 million, $1.8 million and $1.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. There were no employer discretionary profit sharing contributions made to the 401(k) plan in 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Deferred Compensation Arrangements
Certain executive officers participate in a nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement. The plan is fully funded in a trust controlled by the Company with the gains and losses recognized in other noninterest income. The trust asset is reflected in the Company's equity securities with the offsetting deferred compensation liability reflected in other liabilities. The change in value associated with the gains and losses, which are due to the employee upon distribution, is recognized in salaries and employee benefits.
The following table summarizes the activity in the asset and liability balances of the executive officer nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022:

Defined Benefit Pension Plan
The Bank participated in the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan for Financial Institutions, a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan for certain former employees of Heartland Bank who met prescribed eligibility requirements. Benefits under the plan were frozen July 1, 2004.
Effective October 1, 2021, the Bank withdrew from the multiple-employer plan by transferring assets and liabilities to a qualified successor plan under actuarial assumptions and methodology determined appropriate by Pentegra. Assets of $16.6 million were transferred to the successor plan on November 30, 2021. Transferred liability excludes the previously allocated orphan liability. On June 30, 2023, we terminated the plan and notified the IRS, seeking a final determination letter. The final determination letter was received in January 2025 and we expect to begin distributing assets to plan participants in early 2025.
The following table details the components of the net periodic benefit cost for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

NOTE 16 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company awards select employees and directors certain forms of share-based incentives under the 2019 Incentive Plan. The 2019 Incentive Plan made 1,000,000 shares available to be issued to selected employees and directors of, and service providers to, the Company or its subsidiaries. The granting of awards under this plan can be in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards and cash incentive awards. The awards are granted by the compensation committee, which is comprised of members of the board of directors.
Total compensation cost that has been charged against income under the plans was $3.0 million, $2.5 million and $2.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
Restricted Stock
Restricted stock awards require certain service requirements and have a vesting period of four years. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award based on the fair value of the stock at the date of grant.
A summary of the activity for restricted stock awards and restricted stock unit awards for the year follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Number outstanding | | Weighted average grant due fair value |
Nonvested, beginning of year | 341,014 | | | $ | 24.25 | |
Granted | 208,657 | | | 26.10 | |
Vested | (116,374) | | | 23.51 | |
Forfeited | (34,717) | | | 24.80 | |
Nonvested, end of year | 398,580 | | | $ | 25.39 | |
As of December 31, 2024, there was $9.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock awards. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.04 years.
The total fair value of shares vested during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $3.0 million, $2.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively.
Stock Options
The Company awards stock options to employees with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company's common stock at the date of the grant and those awards, typically have a vesting period of four years and a ten-year contractual term.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Nasdaq ABA Community Bank Index. The Company has elected to use the practical expedient of one-half the weighted average time to vest plus the contractual life to estimate the expected term. The Company estimates the impact of forfeitures based on historical experience. Should the Company's current estimate change, additional expense could be recognized or reversed in future periods. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.
The Company did not grant stock options in the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2022 was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of the grant date.
| | | | | | | | |
| | 2022 |
Dividend yield | | 4.24 | % |
Expected volatility | | 23.81 | % |
Risk free interest rate | | 4.23 | % |
Expected life | | 6.25 years |
The weighted average fair value of stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2022 was $4.92.
The summary of our stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2024 is as follows:

NOTE 17 – PREFERRED STOCK
On August 24, 2022, the Company issued and sold 4,600,000 depositary shares (the "Depositary Shares"), each representing a 1/40th ownership interest in a share of the Company's 7.75% fixed-rate reset non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, Series A, par value $2.00 per share (the "Series A preferred stock"), with a liquidation preference of $25 per depositary share (equivalent to $1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock). The Series A preferred stock qualifies as Tier 1 capital for purposes of regulatory capital calculations. The gross proceeds were $115.0 million while net proceeds from the issuance of the Series A preferred stock, after deducting $4.5 million of offering costs, including the underwriting discount and other expenses, were $110.5 million.
Dividends on the Series A preferred stock are not cumulative or mandatory, and will be paid when, as, and if declared by the Company’s board of directors. If declared, dividends will accrue and be payable, quarterly in arrears, (i) from and including the date of original issuance to, but excluding September 30, 2027 or the date of earlier redemption, at a rate of 7.75% per annum, on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 of each year, commencing on December 30, 2022, and (ii) from and including September 30, 2027, during each reset period, at a rate per annum equal to the five-year treasury rate as of the most recent reset dividend determination date plus 4.713%, on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 of each year, beginning on December 30, 2027, except in each case where such day is not a business day. Neither the holders of the Series A preferred stock nor holders of the Depositary Shares will have the right to require the redemption or repurchase of the Series A preferred stock.
NOTE 18 – EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Earnings per common share is calculated utilizing the two-class method. Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock awards. Presented below are the calculations for basic and diluted earnings per common share for the years ended 2024, 2023, and 2022:

NOTE 19 – CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet regulatory capital requirements may result in certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for “prompt corrective action”, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting policies. Our capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies. The Bank is also restricted by Illinois law and regulations of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation and the FDIC as to the maximum amount of dividends the Bank can pay the Company. As a practical matter, the Bank restricts dividends to a lesser amount because of the need to maintain an adequate capital structure.
At December 31, 2024, the Company and the Bank exceeded the regulatory minimums and the Bank met the regulatory definition of "well-capitalized" based on the most recent regulatory notification. There have been no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s and the Bank’s actual and required capital ratios were as follows:

In December 2018, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the FDIC approved a final rule to address changes to credit loss accounting under GAAP, including banking organizations’ implementation of CECL. The final rule provides banking organizations the option to phase in over a three-year period the day-one adverse effects on regulatory capital that may result from the adoption of the new accounting standard. In March 2020, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the FDIC published an interim final rule to delay the estimated impact on regulatory capital stemming from the implementation of CECL. The interim final rule maintains the three-year transition option in the previous rule and provides banks the option to delay for two years an estimate of CECL’s effect on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology’s effect on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period (five-year transition option). The Company adopted the capital transition relief over the permissible five-year period.
NOTE 20 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date reflecting assumptions that a market participant would use when pricing an asset or liability. The hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:
•Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.
•Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that 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.
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:
Investment securities. The fair value of investment securities available for sale are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For investment securities available for sale where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2). For investment securities available for sale where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Securities classified as Level 3 are not actively traded, and as a result, fair value is determined utilizing third-party valuation services through consensus pricing. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the period presented for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of equity securities is determined using quoted prices or market prices for similar securities (Level 2).
Residential loans held for sale. The fair value of residential loans held for sale is determined using quoted prices for a similar asset, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan (Level 2).
Credit enhancement asset. The fair value of the credit enhancement asset is calculated using the Income Approach Valuation Method (Level 3).
Derivative instruments. The fair value of derivative instruments are determined based on derivative valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).
Nonperforming loans. All of our nonaccrual loans are considered nonperforming and are reviewed individually for the amount of impairment, if any. We measure collateral dependent nonperforming loans based on the estimated fair value of such collateral. In cases where the Company has an agreed upon selling price for the collateral, the fair value is set at the selling price (Level 1). The fair value of each loan’s collateral is generally based on estimated market prices from an independently prepared appraisal, which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidating such collateral (Level 2). When adjustments are made to an appraised value to reflect various factors such as the age of the appraisal or known changes in the market or the collateral, such valuation inputs are considered unobservable (Level 3). The nonperforming loans categorized as Level 3 also include unsecured loans and other secured loans whose fair values are based significantly on unobservable inputs such as the strength of a guarantor, cash flows discounted at the effective loan rate, and management’s judgment.
Consumer loans held for sale. The fair value of consumer loans held for sale was derived from a purchase agreement with a third party (Level 3).
Other Real Estate Owned. OREO is initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure less estimated costs of disposal, which establishes a new cost basis. After foreclosure, OREO is held for sale and is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs of disposal. Fair value for OREO is based on an appraisal performed upon foreclosure. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between comparable sales and income data available. Property is evaluated regularly to ensure the recorded amount is supported by its fair value less estimated costs to dispose. After the initial foreclosure appraisal, fair value is generally determined by an annual appraisal unless known events warrant adjustments to the recorded value (Level 2). When adjustments are made to an appraised value to reflect various factors such as the age of the appraisal or known changes in the market or the collateral, such valuation inputs are considered unobservable (Level 3).
Appraisals for both collateral-dependent loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the Company’s asset quality or collections department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal.

ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments and the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate such fair values. Additionally, certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments are excluded from the applicable disclosure requirements.
The Company has elected the fair value option for newly originated residential loans held for sale. These loans are intended for sale and are hedged with derivative instruments. We have elected the fair value option to mitigate accounting mismatches in cases where hedge accounting is complex and to achieve operational simplification.

NOTE 21 – COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND CREDIT RISK
In the normal course of business, there are outstanding various contingent liabilities such as claims and legal actions, which are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. During the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded an accrual related to various legal actions. No other material losses are anticipated as a result of these actions or claims.
We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance
sheet. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement we have in particular classes of financial instruments.
Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank used the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The commitments are principally tied to variable rates. Loan commitments as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
(dollars in thousands) | December 31, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 |
Commitments to extend credit | $ | 754,202 | | | $ | 855,489 | |
Financial guarantees – standby letters of credit | 22,298 | | | 22,745 | |
NOTE 22 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company's reportable segments are determined by the Chief Executive Officer, who is the designated chief operating decision maker, based upon information provided about the Company's products and services offered, primarily distinguished between Banking, Wealth Management and Corporate. They are also distinguished by the level of information provided to the chief operating decision maker, who uses such information to review performance of various components of the business, which are then aggregated if operating performance, products and services, and customers are similar. The chief operating decision maker analyzes the financial performance of the Company's segments, allocates resources and assesses compensation of certain employees by evaluating revenue streams, significant expenses and budget to actual results. The performance of the Banking segment is assessed by monitoring the margin between interest income and interest expense related to loans, investments, deposits and other borrowings. Pretax profit and loss is used to assess the performance of the Wealth Management segment. Interest expense, provisions for credit losses and payroll provide the significant expenses in the Banking segment, while payroll provides the significant expenses in the Wealth Management segment.
The Banking segment provides a wide range of financial products and services to consumers and businesses, including commercial, commercial real estate, mortgage and other consumer loan products; commercial equipment financing; mortgage loan sales and servicing; letters of credit; various types of deposit products, including checking, savings and time deposit accounts; merchant services; and corporate treasury management services.
The Wealth Management segment consists of trust and fiduciary services, brokerage and retirement planning services.
The Corporate segment includes the holding company financing and investment activities, administrative expenses, as well as the elimination of intercompany transactions. The Corporate segment also included our captive insurance business unit for the year ended December 31, 2023. This business was dissolved as of December 31, 2023.
Reported segments and the financial information of the reported segments are not necessarily comparable with similar information reported by other financial institutions. Additionally, because of the interrelationships of the various segments, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities. Changes in management structure or allocation methodologies and procedures may result in future changes to previously reported segment financial data. The accounting policies of the segments are substantially the same as those described in the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Note 1 of the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Transactions between segments consist primarily of borrowed funds and servicing fees. Noninterest income and expense directly attributable to a segment are assigned to it with various shared service costs such as human resources, accounting, finance, risk management and information technology expense assigned to the Banking segment.
Selected business segment financial information for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and investment securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as commercial FHA revenue, residential mortgage banking revenue, credit enhancement income, and gain on sales of investment securities, net, are also not in scope of Topic 606. Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest income streams such as wealth management revenue, service charges on deposit accounts, interchange revenue, gain on sales of other real estate owned, and certain other noninterest income streams. The noninterest income streams considered in-scope by Topic 606 are discussed below.
Wealth Management Revenue
Wealth management revenue is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and other customer assets. The Company also earns investment advisory fees through its SEC registered investment advisory subsidiary. The Company’s performance obligation in both of these instances is generally satisfied over time and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon the month-end market value of the assets under management and contractually determined fee schedules. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to each customer’s account. The Company does not earn performance-based incentives. Optional services such as real estate sales and tax return preparation services are also available to existing trust and asset management customers. The Company’s performance obligation for these transactional-based services is generally satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time (i.e., as incurred). Payment is received shortly after services are rendered. Fees generated from transactions executed by the Company’s third party broker dealer are remitted to the Company on a monthly basis for that month’s transactional activity.
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts
Service charges on deposit accounts consist of fees received under depository agreements with customers to provide access to deposited funds, serve as custodian of deposited funds, and when applicable, pay interest on deposits. These service charges primarily include non-sufficient fund fees and other account related service charges. Non-sufficient fund fees are earned when a depositor presents an item for payment in excess of available funds, and the Company, at its discretion, provides the necessary funds to complete the transaction. The Company generates other account related service charge revenue by providing depositors proper safeguard and remittance of funds as well as by delivering optional services for depositors, such as check imaging or treasury management, that are performed upon the depositor’s request. The Company’s performance obligation for the proper safeguard and remittance of funds, monthly account analysis and any other monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is typically received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to a customer’s account.
Interchange Revenue
Interchange revenue includes debit / credit card income and ATM user fees. Card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned for standing ready to authorize and providing settlement on card transactions processed through the MasterCard interchange network. The levels and structure of interchange rates are set by MasterCard and can vary based on cardholder purchase volumes. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with completion of the Company’s performance obligation, the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder withdraws funds from a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder withdraws funds from a Company ATM. The Company satisfies its performance obligation for each transaction at the point in time when the ATM withdrawal is processed.
Other Noninterest Income
The other noninterest income revenue streams within the scope of Topic 606 consist of merchant services revenue, safe deposit box rentals, wire transfer fees, paper statement fees, check printing commissions, gain on sales of other real estate owned and other noninterest related fees. Revenue from the Company’s merchant services business consists principally of transaction and account management fees charged to merchants for the electronic processing of transactions. These fees are net of interchange fees paid to the credit card issuing bank, card company assessments, and revenue sharing amounts. Account management fees are considered earned at the time the merchant’s transactions are processed or other services are performed. Fees related to the other components of other noninterest income within the scope of Topic 606 are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied and related revenue recognized, at the point in time the customer uses the selected service to execute a transaction.

NOTE 25 - RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company has restated herein the impacted line items to the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023 and the Consolidated Statements of Income, Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. In addition, the Company has restated the impacted line items to its unaudited quarterly Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Income, Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Description of Misstatements
The errors relate to the Company’s accounting for loans originated pursuant to third-party loan origination programs. As part of these programs, the third-party providers offered various credit enhancements with respect to loans originated under the programs, including contributions to reserve accounts, yield maintenance and certain other payments. Historically, the Company accounted for all borrower payments and credit enhancement payments under these programs on a single unit, or net
basis, with all such payments presented as interest income representing the Company’s effective yield on the portfolios. The Company has determined that these payments should instead be accounted for on a separate unit of account, or gross basis, with loan yields and interest income recorded at the gross borrower loan rate, credit losses and associated provisions for credit losses recorded on a gross basis over the life of the loans, and with all credit enhancement payments recorded separately as a credit enhancement derivative.
Description of Restated Tables
The following tables present the amounts previously reported and a reconciliation of the restated amounts reported on the restated Consolidated Balance Sheets, the restated Consolidated Statements of Income and the restated Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the periods presented.

NOTE 26 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
During the first quarter of 2025, Management determined that a triggering event had occurred at its Banking reporting unit as a result of further deteriorated credit quality coupled with the trends in the stock price. The Company performed a quantitative impairment test on its Banking reporting unit as of March 31, 2025, and engaged a third-party service provider to assist Management with the determination of the fair value. The resulting calculation indicated that the carrying amount exceeded the fair value of the Company's Banking reporting unit. As a result of the assessment, the Company expects to recognize goodwill impairment expense between $135.0 million and $154.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. Impairment will not impact our regulatory capital ratios, tangible common equity ratio nor our liquidity position.
The Company continues to take steps in 2025 to resolve nonperforming assets and improve its overall credit profile. These steps include foreclosures, short sales, pursuit of guarantors and sales of notes. The Company has continued to monitor credit actions and subsequent losses in order to determining the appropriate time period for recognition. Notable credit actions and subsequent losses are presented in the table below, in thousands.

None.
ITEM 9A – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. At December 31, 2024, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, both the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2024, due to the identification of the material weaknesses described below. In addition, due to certain material weaknesses described below and the resulting restatement of our financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, June 30, 2024 and 2023, and September 30, 2024 and 2023.
In addition, the Company has restated the impacted line items to its unaudited quarterly Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Income, Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of and for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, June 30, 2024 and 2023, and September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes self-monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are identified.
An effective internal control system can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of an internal control system may vary over time. There are inherent limitations in any internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected, including the possibility of circumvention or overriding of controls.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), was not effective as of December 31, 2024 , due to certain material weaknesses described below. In addition, due to the material weaknesses described below and the resulting restatement of our financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), was also ineffective as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
A material weakness exists when there is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
During the preparation of our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, management identified the following material weaknesses, individually or in the aggregate:
•The Company did not design and maintain controls to assess the risk of material misstatement with contracts related to non-routine transactions.
•The Company did not design and maintain an effective internal control activities for evaluating the accounting and financial reporting related to third-party credit enhancement contracts.
•The Company did not design and maintain effective internal controls over loan data, including the activities performed by certain third-party service organizations that perform core lending functions. The loan data control deficiencies
affect the allowance for credit losses, loan balances, accrued interest, interest income, servicing fees, and the fair value of the credit enhancement derivative.
As a result, certain amounts included in interest income, non-interest income and non-interest expense, and the related balance sheet accounts were not recognized in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which required a restatement of the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the interim quarterly periods in 2024 and 2023.
Remediation Plan. Since identifying the material weaknesses described herein, management, under the oversight of the Audit Committee has committed to remediate these deficiencies. The remediation efforts include implementing controls to:
•The Company will implement a more formal risk assessment process and revise our monitoring programs relating to financial accounting and reporting for non-routine transactions, providing for additional documentation of internal controls.
•The Company will enhance internal control training, including focus on risk assessment, design, monitoring, and documentation with regards to non-routine transactions.
•The Company will evaluate and enhance its control implementation policies and procedures that requires review for identification of non-standard terms, embedded derivatives, guarantees, or variable features before contract execution, and the use of a GAAP assessment checklist and documented technical memorandum for every non-routine contract.
•The Company engaged a third-party accounting advisor to address technical accounting transactions, assist in the evaluation of contracts related to non-routine transactions, and other related accounting analysis.
•The Company will implement formal accounting policies that define required analyses for guarantees or variable-rate features, including derivative identification and balance sheet and income statement presentation.
•The Company will implement a formal internal control process over the review of loan data provided by certain third-party service organizations that perform core lending functions to include enhancing controls over data interfaces, reconciliations, and review procedures for loan data, mapping loan data flows, assigning control ownership, and implementing exception reporting.
While we expect that the implementation of these controls will address the material weaknesses, management continues to evaluate the effectiveness of the remedial actions on an ongoing basis.
Crowe LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, and their report is included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B – OTHER INFORMATION
During the first quarter of 2025, Management determined that a triggering event had occurred at its Banking reporting unit as a result of further deteriorated credit quality coupled with the trends in the stock price. The Company performed a quantitative impairment test on its Banking reporting unit as of March 31, 2025, and engaged a third-party service provider to assist Management with the determination of the fair value. The resulting calculation indicated that the carrying amount exceeded the fair value of the Company's Banking reporting unit. As a result of the assessment, the Company expects to recognize goodwill impairment expense between $135.0 million and $154.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. This non-cash impairment expense will not impact our regulatory capital ratios, tangible common equity ratio nor our liquidity position, and will not result in future cash expenditures. During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

Executive Summary
2024 Compensation Highlights
We compensate our NEOs with a combination of base salary, annual cash incentive bonuses, long-term equity incentive awards, and other benefits, including perquisites. Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain and motivate qualified and talented executives to achieve our short- and long-term business goals and create shareholder value.
Based on our performance and consistent with the design of our program, the Compensation Committee made the following executive compensation decisions for fiscal year 2024:
•Base Salaries. The Compensation Committee approved base salary increases for 2024 ranging between 2.2% and 13.3%. See “2024 Executive Compensation Program in Detail” within this CD&A section for more information.
•Annual Cash Incentive Bonuses. Based on the circumstances that drove our 2024 performance results, the Compensation Committee approved award payouts at 27% of target under the Company’s Corporate Bonus Plan. See “2024 Executive Compensation Program in Detail” within this CD&A section for more information.
•Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards. The Compensation Committee granted equity awards using 100% restricted stock, which are subject to four-year vesting schedules.
Compensation Best Practices
Our Compensation Committee considers it important to design our compensation program in accordance with best practices for public companies, while continuing to be able to recruit and retain superior executive talent.
| | | | | | | | |
What We Do | | What We Do Not Do |
Use performance-based incentives as a significant portion of our NEOs’ total compensation
| | Provide tax gross-ups, except for those available to all employees generally |
Use peer group benchmarking to inform compensation decisions | | Include walk-away severance payments or single-trigger cash payments upon a change in control |
Condition short-term incentive-based compensation on key performance metrics (adjusted earnings per share, adjusted pre-tax pre-provision income and adjusted revenue) | | Provide single-trigger vesting of equity awards in change of control transactions for awards granted during 2020 and thereafter under our 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan |
Condition annual long-term incentives on four-year equal tranche vesting | | Re-price equity awards without prior shareholder approval |
Have a clawback policy for incentive compensation that is compliant with SEC and NASDAQ rules | | Allow hedging of Company stock |
Have stock ownership guidelines for executives and directors | | No liberal change in control definition in individual contracts or equity plans and no unspecified treatment of equity awards in the event of a change in control |
Provide for severance payments only upon an involuntary termination of employment where the termination was without cause or for “good reason” (whether or not such termination is in connection with a change in control) | | Offer any executive pension plans |
Conduct an annual risk-based assessment of our compensation program | | Have employment agreements that provide for guaranteed salary increases, cash incentive bonuses, or equity incentive compensation |
Prior Year’s Say-on-Pay Vote
At the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of shareholders, the nonbinding, advisory proposal to approve the compensation of certain executive officers received the approval of approximately 97% of the shares having voting power and present at the meeting. The Company, the board of directors and the Compensation Committee pay careful attention to communications received from shareholders regarding executive compensation, including the nonbinding, advisory vote and believe that the vote reflects our shareholders’ support of our compensation philosophy and the manner in which we compensate our NEOs. The Compensation Committee generally considered the strong support for the advisory vote on executive compensation as part of its evaluation of the 2024 compensation program.
We will continue to review, evaluate and modify the structure and design of our program to meet its objectives, promote strategic growth, increase value for our shareholders, and maintain a competitive executive compensation package in relation to our peers.
What Guides Our Program
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
We strive to be among the top performing community banks in the nation. While our operations are primarily located in Illinois and the St. Louis metropolitan area in Missouri, we measure our performance on both a local and national level. Our compensation philosophy reflects this vision and strategy.
We structure our executive compensation program to align our NEOs’ compensation with both our short-term and long-term business objectives and the creation of shareholder value. By doing so, our executive compensation program enables us to attract, retain, and motivate executive officers who contribute to our financial performance and success. In particular, we do the following:
•use short-term performance-based incentives, which are conditioned on the achievement of certain adjusted earnings per share, adjusted pre-tax pre-provision income and adjusted revenue targets and focus our executive team on sustaining top-level performance of the Company, as a meaningful portion of our NEOs’ total compensation;
•provide long-term equity incentive awards that focus our executive team on creating long-term value for our shareholders and incentivize long-term executive retention;
•ensure a sufficient base level of annual salary in both strong and weak economic markets to attract and retain national-level executive talent; and
•conduct, through our Risk Management Department, an annual risk-based assessment of our compensation program to help ensure our overall compensation program is designed to incentivize long-term shareholder growth without incentivizing short-term risk taking.
In evaluating our compensation packages, the Compensation Committee is mindful of the need to compete for national-level executive talent and attract talent to Effingham, Illinois, the location of our corporate headquarters. In this endeavor, one of our challenges has been persuading top-level talent to relocate to, often from major metropolitan areas, and remain in Effingham, which is a town of slightly more than 12,000 people situated approximately two hours from St. Louis, Missouri and Indianapolis, Indiana. As a result, our executive compensation program offers compensation packages that are competitive with those offered by our peers, regardless of locality.
While the Compensation Committee considers the pay practices of our peers as one of many factors in establishing our executive compensation programs, it does not set compensation at a specific percentile of our peers. As discussed in more detail below, the Compensation Committee has established a selective group of peers with the assistance of our independent compensation consultant.
Elements of Compensation
Our compensation philosophy is supported by the following principal elements of compensation:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Pay Element | | How It’s Paid | | Purpose |
Base Salary | | Cash (Fixed) | | Provide competitive and consistent compensation relative to similar positions in the market and enable the Company to attract and retain critical executive talent. |
Annual Incentives | | Cash (Variable) | | Reward executive officers for delivering on annual strategic objectives. |
Long-Term Incentives | | Equity (Variable) | | Provide incentives for our NEOs to create shareholder value and retain our NEOs through long-term vesting. |
Pay Mix
The charts below show the target annual total direct compensation of our CEO and our other NEOs for fiscal 2024. These charts illustrate that a meaningful portion of executive compensation is variable (58% for our CEO and an average of 50% for our other NEOs).
The Decision-Making Process
The Role of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee oversees the executive compensation program for our NEOs. The Compensation Committee is comprised of independent, non-employee members of the Board. The Compensation Committee works very closely with its independent consultant and management to examine the effectiveness of the Company’s executive compensation program throughout the year. Details of the Compensation Committee’s authority and responsibilities are specified in its charter, which may be accessed at www.midlandsb.com under “Investors — Corporate Governance — Governance Highlights.”
Role of Executive Officers. None of our NEOs participates in or makes recommendations with respect to the determination of their own compensation. The Compensation Committee is responsible for all compensation decisions affecting our Chief Executive Officer. Additionally, the Compensation Committee sets the terms of the performance-based annual cash incentive bonuses and long-term equity incentive awards for all our NEOs and determines the actual payouts of such bonuses and awards. Our Chief Executive Officer recommends salary adjustments for the other NEOs, which the Compensation Committee reviews prior to adjustments becoming effective.
Use of Independent Consultants. The Compensation Committee has authority to retain, at the Company’s expense, outside counsel, experts, compensation consultants and other advisors, as needed. For 2024, the Compensation Committee retained Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC as an independent compensation consultant to advise it on compensation matters. In 2024, Pearl Meyer’s specific services to the Compensation Committee included reviewing and updating, as appropriate, our compensation philosophy; reviewing potential risks associated with our compensation programs; analyzing our NEO and director compensation levels, including based on our peer group; and analyzing our equity utilization. Pearl Meyer also provided reports to the Compensation Committee on market compensation trends and developments.
In its engagement of Pearl Meyer, the Compensation Committee considered the independence of its compensation advisor under applicable SEC and Nasdaq listing rules and concluded there was no conflict of interest with respect to their engagement.
The Role of Peer Group Companies. The Compensation Committee strives to set a competitive level of total compensation for each NEO as compared with executive officers in similar positions at peer companies.
Our peer group established in 2023 was the result of a comprehensive and in-depth assessment by the Compensation Committee, conducted with the support of Pearl Meyer. This evaluation carefully examined the appropriateness of the companies included, ensuring they accurately reflected the Bank’s size, scope, and market position. The assessment also incorporated a review of the broader marketplace to identify any necessary additions or removals, resulting in significant and appropriate changes to the peer group for 2023. We reviewed our peer group again in 2024 and retained our 2023 peer group for 2024 compensation decisions.
Our peer group companies for 2024 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
City Holding Company | First Merchants Corporation | Park National Corporation |
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. | German American Bancorp, Inc. | Peoples Bancorp Inc. |
Enterprise Financial Services Corp | Horizon Bancorp, Inc. | QCR Holdings, Inc. |
FB Financial Corporation | Independent Bank Corporation (MI) | S&T Bancorp, Inc. |
First Bancorp | Lakeland Financial Corporation | Sandy Spring Bancorp, Inc. |
First Busey Corporation | Northwest Bancshares, Inc. | Tompkins Financial Corporation |
First Commonwealth Financial Corp | Origin Bancorp, Inc. | |
It is important to note that this peer group and other market data provided by Pearl Meyer is not the sole determinant in setting pay levels for our NEOs. The Compensation Committee also considers Company and individual performance and the nature of an individual’s role within the Company, as well as his or her experience and contributions to his or her current role when making its compensation-related decisions.
2024 Executive Compensation Program in Detail
Base Salary
Base salary represents annual fixed compensation and is a standard element of compensation necessary to attract and retain executive leadership talent. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the base salaries of our NEOs and sets the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer. In setting the base salary of each NEO, the Compensation Committee relies on market data provided annually by our independent compensation consultant and survey data from industry resources. Salary levels are typically considered annually as part of our executive compensation review process and upon a promotion or other change in job responsibility.
After the Compensation Committee’s annual NEO base salary review, it approved the following base salary increases for 2024, reflecting individual performance, market benchmarking, and the Company’s overall performance. While the base salary increases for most NEOs averaged approximately 3%, Messrs. Mefford and Lemke received more significant increases to improve their competitive pay positioning relative to the market. The table below states the base salaries for our NEOs in 2023 and 2024.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Name | | 2023 Base Salary | | 2024 Base Salary | | Increase |
Jeffrey G. Ludwig | | $ | 721,000 | | | $ | 749,800 | | | 4.0 | % |
Jeffrey S. Mefford | | 463,500 | | | 525,000 | | | 13.3 | % |

The Compensation Committee believes that performance-based compensation can and should incentivize our NEOs to drive the Company’s growth, balanced with the assumption of reasonable risk. Accordingly, we account for several performance- and risk-based metrics in their annual cash incentive bonuses.
Annual cash incentive bonuses may be earned in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Corporate Bonus Plan (the “Bonus Plan”). Actual payouts depend on the achievement of pre-determined financial performance objectives and can range from 0% to a cap of 150% of target award amounts. Target annual award opportunities are expressed as a percentage of base salary and were established based on the NEO’s level of responsibility and their ability to impact the Company’s overall financial results. To emphasize corporate performance, 100% of the bonus opportunities available to our NEOs are conditioned on Company performance.
On a year-by-year basis, the Compensation Committee structures the Bonus Plan by selecting and weighting annual financial goals under which bonuses may be earned. In accordance with the weighting assigned by the Compensation Committee, our NEOs are eligible to earn a portion of their target cash incentive bonuses if the Company attains a sufficient level of performance for a particular metric. If we fail to attain more than 90% of the target performance goal for any performance metric, our NEOs earn no amount of their target bonuses subject to such metric. If we achieve greater than 90%
but less than 100% of the target performance goal for any performance metric, our NEOs earn between 50% and 100% of the amount of their target bonuses subject to such metric, with actual payouts determined based on a sliding scale. If we achieve above 100% of a performance goal, the NEOs will earn an increased percentage of the amount of their target bonuses. In addition, annual bonuses are subject to partial reduction or forfeiture if certain risk-based capital and asset quality metrics are not maintained, including specified levels for the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio and the Company’s ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets. The NEOs may later earn restoration bonuses following a reduction or forfeiture if the Compensation Committee determines that the deficiencies in the risk-based metrics have been timely cured.
Annual cash incentive bonuses are based on the level of achievement of financial metrics selected by the Compensation Committee for the respective year. The annual cash incentive bonuses for our NEOs in 2024 were based upon the following Company performance metrics:
•Adjusted Earnings Per Share — 35% of the annual cash incentive bonus was based upon achieving a specified earnings per share goal for the year, as adjusted for certain items, including loss on sales of investment securities, net, and gain on repurchase of subordinated debt (“Adjusted EPS”).
•Adjusted Pre-Tax, Pre-Provision Income — 35% of the annual cash incentive bonus was based upon achieving a specified pre-tax, pre-provision income goal for the year, as adjusted for certain items, including loss on sales of investment securities, net, and gain on repurchase of subordinated debt (“Adjusted PTPP Income”).
•Adjusted Revenue — 30% of the annual cash incentive bonus was based upon achieving a specified revenue goal for the year, as adjusted for certain items, including loss on sales of investment securities, net, and gain on repurchase of subordinated debt (“Adjusted Revenue”).
The table below summarizes the components and results of the Bonus Plan for our NEOs for the 2024 fiscal year.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
2024 Metric | | | | | | | | | | | |
(dollars in thousands, except per share data) | Metric Weight | | Threshold Goal | | Target Goal | | Actual Result(1) | | Percent Attained | | Payout Percentage |
Adjusted EPS | 35 % | | $2.84 | | 3.15 | | ($1.05) | | — | % | | — | % |
Adjusted PTPP Income | 35 % | | $111,761 | | 124,179 | | $106,306 | | 85.61 | % | | — | % |
Adjusted Revenue | 30 % | | $275,815 | | 306,461 | | $299,568 | | 97.75 | % | | 90 | % |
Total Payout | | | | | | | | | | | 27 | % |
(1) The amounts reported in the Actual Result column were considered by the Compensation Committee in determining annual cash incentive bonuses in early 2025, which was prior to the identification of errors in the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, but these amounts do not reflect the subsequent correction of such errors, as reflected in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. As required by the Company’s Clawback Policy, the Audit Committee will conduct a recovery analysis of incentive-based compensation received by the Company’s executive officers during the relevant recovery period, including the cash incentive bonuses in respect of the year ended December 31, 2024, based on the corrected actual results.
The Compensation Committee oversees performance throughout the fiscal year, evaluating progress against set objectives, and has the discretion to consider adjustments for exceptional items that may distort the assessment of normal operating performance, such as costs related to restructuring, acquisitions, legal matters, and pandemic-related impacts. These adjustments aim to maintain fairness to both participants and shareholders, while also fostering actions that promote the long-term health of the business and align with predetermined performance goals.
In light of challenging credit issues, the Company undertook strategic restructuring efforts in 2024. This included the one-time sales of certain non-core consumer loan portfolios as well as certain downgrades, charge-offs, and reserves in the Specialty Finance and Midland Equipment Finance portfolios. While these actions temporarily impacted earnings per share, PTPP income, and revenue, they are anticipated to reduce credit risk over the long term.
Based upon Company performance and the resulting metrics, the Compensation Committee approved bonus payouts at 27% of the target for the fiscal year. The table below summarizes the annual cash incentive bonus targets and actual payouts for each NEO for the 2024 fiscal year.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Name | | 2024 Target (% of Salary) | | Actual Bonus (% of Salary) | | Actual Bonus |
Jeffrey G. Ludwig | | 65% | | 17.55% | | $ | 130,233 | |
Jeffrey S. Mefford | | 60% | | 16.2% | | 82,223 |
Douglas J. Tucker | | 40% | | 10.8% | | 42,950 |

Daniel E. Casey | | 40% | | 8.1% | | 35,870 |
Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards
The Compensation Committee believes that equity awards serve to align each officer’s interests with those of our shareholders. The equity awards held by our NEOs and reflected in the compensation tables below all relate to awards made under our 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2019 LTIP”) or its predecessor plans.
The Compensation Committee typically grants equity awards to each NEO at the time the individual is hired and, thereafter, on an annual basis as part of our overall executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee grants equity awards to encourage our NEOs to stay with, and maximize the performance of, the Company over the long term and to discourage excessive focus on short-term metrics at the expense of the long-term health of the organization.
For 2024, the Compensation Committee granted equity awards using 100% restricted stock as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Name | | Shares of Restricted Stock | | Per Share Fair Value | | Actual Grant Date Fair Value |
Jeffrey G. Ludwig | | 20,110 | | $ | 27.96 | | | $ | 562,276 | |
Jeffrey S. Mefford | | 12,200 | | 27.96 | | | 341,112 | |
Douglas J. Tucker | | 7,150 | | 27.96 | | | 199,914 | |
Eric T. Lemke | | 7,820 | | 27.96 | | | 218,647 | |
Daniel E. Casey | | 5,390 | | 27.96 | | | 150,704 | |
Each grant of restricted stock awards vests annually in equal portions on the first four anniversaries of the grant date, assuming the executive’s employment has not previously terminated. Each grant also vests in full upon an involuntary termination in connection with a change in control of the Company or the NEO’s termination of employment due to death or disability. The grant date fair value of the restricted stock awards in 2024 was determined based on a share price of $27.96, the closing share price of the Company’s common stock as of the trading day immediately prior to the date of grant.
Other Practices, Policies & Guidelines
Stock Ownership Guidelines
The Board believes that executive officers and directors of the Company should own and hold MSBI common stock (“MSBI Stock”) to further align their interests with the long-term interests of Company shareholders and further promote the Company’s commitment to sound corporate governance. Effective January 1, 2024, the guidelines are as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Title | | Guideline |
CEO | | 3x base salary |
Other Section 16 Officers | | 2x base salary |
Directors | | 5x cash retainer |
Shares owned outright by the executive officer/director or his or her immediate family members residing in the same household; shares held in trust for the benefit of the executive officer/director or his or her immediate family members residing in the same household; vested and unvested restricted stock awards; and vested deferred stock units, restricted stock units or performance share units that may only be settled in shares all count toward meeting the guidelines.
Executives and directors are expected to reach the required ownership level within five years of their appointment or election to their respective roles. Unless an executive or director has satisfied his or her applicable guideline level, until the guideline level is satisfied, they are required to retain an amount equal to 25% of the shares of MSBI Stock (or net shares where applicable) received as the result of the exercise, vesting or payment of any MSBI equity awards. The Company will regularly review and report on compliance with these Guidelines, and adjustments to the Guideline levels may be made as necessary to reflect changes in executive/director compensation or Company performance. As of December 31, 2024, each of the NEOs was in compliance with the guidelines.
Clawback Policy
On November 6, 2023, our Board adopted a clawback policy in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq), a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The policy requires that we recoup certain cash and equity incentive compensation paid to or deferred by certain executives in the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws, and the compensation would not have been awarded under the restated financial information, subject to the other terms and limitations set forth in the policy.
As disclosed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company has restated its financial statements for certain periods, and has determined that it is required to conduct a recovery analysis of incentive-based compensation received by its executive officers during the relevant recovery period in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10D-1 under the Exchange Act. In accordance with the Company’s Clawback Policy, this analysis will be performed by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, which will determine whether there was any erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation requiring recovery.
Anti-Hedging Policy
Our insider trading policy prohibits our directors, executive officers and employees from entering into any hedging transaction with respect to any of the Company’s securities. See “Corporate Governance and the Board of Directors — Anti-Hedging Policy” for more details.
Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards
The Company does not currently grant new awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights or similar option-like instruments (“Options”). Accordingly, the Company has no specific policy or practice on the timing of awards of Options in relation to the disclosure of material nonpublic information by the Company. In the event the Company determines to grant new awards of Options, the Board will evaluate the appropriate steps to take in relation to the foregoing.
Benefits and Other Perquisites
The NEOs are eligible to participate in the same benefit plans offered to all of our full-time employees, including plans providing health, dental, vision, disability and basic group life insurance coverage and various retirement benefits. These plans are described in the “Executive Compensation — Other Compensation Programs” section below.
Regulatory Impact on Compensation
As a publicly traded financial institution, the Company is subject to additional regulatory requirements, most notably, the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safety and Soundness (the “Safety and Soundness Standards”). The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) has long held that excessive compensation is prohibited as an unsafe and unsound practice under the Safety and Soundness Standards. In describing a framework to determine whether compensation is excessive, the FDIC has indicated that financial institutions should consider whether aggregate cash amounts paid, or non-cash benefits provided, to employees are unreasonable or disproportionate to the services performed by an employee. The FDIC encourages financial institutions to review an employee’s compensation history and to consider internal pay equity, and, as appropriate, to consider benchmarking compensation to peer groups. Finally, the FDIC provides that, in order to give proper context, such an assessment must be made in light of the institution’s overall financial condition.
Additionally, the Compensation Committee must also take into account the joint agency Guidance on Sound Incentive Compensation Policies (the “Guidance”), which is intended to complement the Safety and Soundness Standards. The Guidance
sets forth a framework for assessing and mitigating risk associated with incentive compensation plans, programs and arrangements maintained by financial institutions.
Other matters, such as accounting, tax and SEC requirements regarding risk assessment are also considered by the Compensation Committee as part of its compensation design and annual decisions.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
The following table sets forth information concerning potential payments and benefits under our compensation programs and benefit plans, including individual employment agreements for Messrs. Ludwig, Mefford, Tucker and Lemke and the change of control agreement for Mr. Casey, pursuant to which the NEOs would be entitled upon various terminations of employment or a change in control as of the last business day of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. For purposes of estimating the value of accelerated vesting of equity awards we have assumed a price per share of our common stock of $24.40 based on the market value of our common stock on December 31, 2024 (the last trading day of the year).

(1) The amounts set forth in the “Cash Severance Payments” column reflect the sum of cash severance payments to be made pursuant to Messrs. Ludwig’s, Mefford’s, Tucker’s and Lemke’s employment agreements and Mr. Casey’s change of control agreement exclusive of any pro rata bonus payable on a termination of employment as annual incentive bonuses are earned as of December 31 and no additional amount would be payable to a NEO for a termination occurring on the last business day of
the year. Please see the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table for 2024 annual incentive compensation amounts.
(2) The amounts set forth in the “COBRA Continuation” column reflect the employer-paid portion of COBRA premiums to be made pursuant to each NEO’s employment agreement or change of control agreement, as applicable, assuming each NEO was eligible for, and elected, COBRA coverage for the maximum period allowed by law. No value is reflected for Mr. Mefford as he did not participate in either our medical or dental plan as of December 31, 2024.
(3) The amounts set forth in the “Accelerated Vesting of Equity Awards” column reflect the value of accelerated vesting of unvested restricted stock awards pursuant to our 2019 LTIP based on the market value of our common stock of $24.40 on December 31, 2024 (the last trading day of the year). In certain instances, the NEOs will also be entitled to accelerated vesting of the NEOs’ unvested options. As of December 31, 2024 (the last trading day of the year), the value of the Company’s stock was below the NEOs’ option exercise price and therefore no value is reflected on this table with respect to the acceleration of the NEOs’ options.
(4) Involuntary Termination (not in connection with a change in control) means, pursuant to the terms of the NEO’s employment agreement, a termination by (i) the employer other than for cause, death or disability, or (ii) the NEO for good reason, in either case that does not occur within six months prior to, or 24 months following, a change in control.
(5) Involuntary Termination (in connection with a change in control) means, pursuant to the terms of the NEO’s employment agreement, a termination by (i) the employer other than for cause, death or disability, or (ii) the NEO for good reason, in either case that occurs within six months prior to, or 24 months following, a change in control.
(6) Involuntary Termination (not in connection with a change in control) means, pursuant to the terms of Mr. Casey’s change of control agreement, a termination by (i) the employer other than for cause, death or disability, or (ii) Mr. Casey for good reason, in either case that does not occur within six months prior to, or 24 months following, a change in control.
(7) Involuntary Termination (in connection with a change in control) means, pursuant to the terms of the Mr. Casey’s change of control agreement, a termination by (i) the employer other than for cause, death or disability, or (ii) Mr. Casey for good reason, in either case that occurs within six months prior to, or 24 months following, a change in control.
Employment Agreements
We have entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Ludwig, Mefford, Tucker and Lemke. Each agreement generally describes the position and duties of each NEO, provides for a specified term of employment, describes base salary, bonus opportunity and other benefits and perquisites to which the executive officer is entitled, if any, sets forth the duties and obligations of each party in the event of a termination of employment prior to expiration of the employment term, and provides us with a measure of protection by obligating the NEO to abide by the terms of restrictive covenants during the terms of his employment and thereafter for a specified period of time. We entered into amended and restated agreements with Messrs. Ludwig, Mefford, Tucker and Lemke in November 2020.
Mr. Ludwig. Our employment agreement with Mr. Ludwig, effective November 5, 2020, provides for an initial term of three years, with an automatic extension for an additional one-year period commencing on the first anniversary of the effective date and each anniversary thereafter, unless either party provides written notice of non-extension 90 days prior to the extension date. If a change in control of the Company occurs during the term of the agreement, the agreement will remain in effect for the two-year period following the change in control. Mr. Ludwig’s base salary is subject to annual review and increase at the discretion of our Compensation Committee, and his target bonus is required to be at least 65% of his base salary. The agreement also provides for Mr. Ludwig’s participation in the Company’s compensation and benefits plans, including the 2019 LTIP, in the same manner as other senior executives of the Company. Following Mr. Ludwig’s termination of employment, he will be subject to non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions for a period of 12 months. In the event Mr. Ludwig’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause, death, or disability, or he resigns for good reason, he will be entitled to a payment equal to 100% (300% if in connection with a change in control) of the sum of his salary plus the average of his bonus payments for the prior three years. He will also be entitled to COBRA coverage at employee rates for up to 12 months (36 months if in connection with a change in control) and a pro rata bonus for the year of termination.
Mr. Mefford. Our employment agreement with Mr. Mefford, effective November 5, 2020, provides for an initial term of two years, with an automatic extension for an additional one-year period commencing on the first anniversary of the effective date and each anniversary thereafter, unless either party provides written notice of non-extension 90 days prior to the extension date. If a change in control of the Company occurs during the term of the agreement, the agreement will remain in effect for the two-year period following the change in control. Mr. Mefford’s base salary is subject to annual review and increase at the discretion of our Chief Executive Officer, and his target bonus is required to be at least 60% of his base salary. The agreement also provides for Mr. Mefford’s participation in the Company’s compensation and benefits plans, including the 2019 LTIP, in the same manner as other senior executives of the Company. Following Mr. Mefford’s termination of employment, he will be subject to non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions for a period of 12 months. In the event Mr. Mefford’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause, death, or disability, or he resigns for good reason, he will be entitled to
receive severance pursuant to the Company’s general severance plan or policy in effect at the time of termination, or if such termination is in connection with a change in control, he will be entitled to a payment equal to 200% of the sum of his salary plus the average of his bonus payments for the prior three years. He will also be entitled to COBRA coverage at employee rates for up to 12 months (24 months if in connection with a change in control) and, if such termination is in connection with a change in control, a pro rata bonus for the year of termination.
Mr. Tucker. As noted above, Mr. Tucker retired from the Company was effective January 3, 2025. The discussion below describes his employment agreement as it was in effect at the end of 2024. The discussion is intended to provide context to the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control Table” included above. The employment agreement with Mr. Tucker provided Mr. Tucker with an annual base salary, target bonus opportunity, and eligibility for participation in the Company’s compensation and benefits plans, including the 2019 LTIP, in the same manner as other senior executives of the Company. Following any termination of employment, Mr. Tucker would be subject to non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions for a period of 12 months. Had a termination of employment occurred prior to his retirement on January 3, 2025, in the event such termination was by the Company other than for cause, death, or disability, or he resigned for good reason, he would have been entitled to a payment equal to 50% (200% if in connection with a change in control) of the sum of his salary plus the average of his bonus payments for the prior three years. He would also have been entitled to COBRA coverage at employee rates for up to 12 months (24 months if in connection with a change in control) and, if such termination was in connection with a change in control, a pro rata bonus for the year of termination. Upon his retirement on January 3, 2025, Mr. Tucker was eligible for a bonus payment consistent with the terms of the Company’s Career Transition Bonus program described below.
Mr. Lemke. Our employment agreement with Mr. Lemke, effective November 5, 2020, provides for an initial term of two years, with an automatic renewal for additional one-year periods commencing on each anniversary thereafter, unless either party provides written notice of nonrenewal 90 days prior to the extension date. If a change in control of the Company occurs during the term of the agreement, the agreement will remain in effect for the two-year period following the change in control. Mr. Lemke’s base salary is subject to annual review and increase at the discretion of our Chief Executive Officer and his target bonus is required to be at least 40% of his base salary. The agreement also provides for Mr. Lemke’s participation in the Company’s compensation and benefits plans, including the 2019 LTIP, in the same manner as other senior executives of the Company. Following Mr. Lemke’s termination of employment, he will generally be subject to non-solicitation (and non-competition unless such termination is due to good reason) restrictions for a period of 12 months. In the event Mr. Lemke’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause, death, or disability, or he resigns for good reason, he will be entitled to receive severance pursuant to the Company’s general severance plan or policy in effect at the time of termination, or if such termination is in connection with a change in control, he will be entitled to a payment equal to 200% of the sum of his salary plus the average of his bonus payments for the prior three years. He will also be entitled to COBRA coverage at employee rates for up to 12 months (24 months if in connection with a change in control) and, if such termination is in connection with a change in control, a pro rata bonus for the year of termination.
Our obligation to pay any severance under each of the amended and restated employment agreements is conditioned on the execution by the NEO of a general release and waiver of any and all claims with respect to their employment with the Company.
Change of Control Agreement
Mr. Casey. Our change of control agreement with Mr. Casey, effective May 3, 2023, provides for an initial term through December 31, 2023, with an automatic renewal for additional one-year periods commencing on each January 1 thereafter, unless either party provides written notice of nonrenewal 90 days prior to December 31 of each year. If a change in control of the Company occurs during the term of the agreement, the agreement will remain in effect for a one-year period following the change in control. Following Mr. Casey’s termination of employment, he will generally be subject to non-solicitation and non-competition restrictions for a period of 12 months. In the event Mr. Casey’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause, death, or disability, or he resigns for good reason, in any case, not in connection with a change in control, he will be entitled to receive severance pursuant to the Company’s general severance plan or policy in effect at the time of termination, or if such termination is in connection with a change in control, he will be entitled to a payment equal to 150% of the sum of his salary plus the average of his bonus payments for the prior three years. He will also be entitled to COBRA coverage at employee rates for up to 12 months. Our obligation to make payments to Mr. Casey under his change of control agreement is conditioned on his execution of a general release and waiver of any and all claims with respect to his employment with the Company.
Long Term Incentive Plans
Equity based incentive awards are currently made though the Company’s 2019 LTIP. The Company also maintains the 2010 LTIP. As of the effective date of the 2019 LTIP, no further awards may be granted under the 2010 LTIP. However, any previously outstanding incentive award granted under the 2010 LTIP remains subject to the terms of such plan until the time it is no longer outstanding.
Midland States Bancorp, Inc. 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The 2019 LTIP, which was amended and restated on May 1, 2023, was adopted by our board on February 5, 2019 and became effective upon approval by our shareholders on May 3, 2019. The 2019 LTIP was designed to ensure continued availability of equity awards that will assist the Company in attracting, retaining and rewarding key employees, directors and other service providers. Pursuant to the 2019 LTIP, the Compensation Committee is allowed to grant awards to eligible persons in the form of qualified and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and other incentive awards. Awards vest, become exercisable and contain such other terms and conditions as determined by the Compensation Committee and set forth in individual agreements with the employees receiving the awards. The plan enables the Compensation Committee to set specific performance criteria that must be met before an award vests under the plan. The 2019 LTIP allows for acceleration of vesting and exercise privileges of grants if a participant’s termination of employment is due to a change in control, death or total disability. If a participant’s job is terminated for cause, then all unvested awards expire at the date of termination. Up to 1,550,000 shares of common stock may be issued under the plan (all of which may be granted as incentive stock options), which includes an additional 550,000 shares approved by shareholders as of May 1, 2023. As of December 31, 2024, there were 398,580 shares available for issuance under the 2019 LTIP.
Midland States Bancorp, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The 2010 LTIP was adopted by our board on October 18, 2010 and approved by our shareholders on November 23, 2010. The 2010 LTIP was amended and restated December 31, 2010 and further amended and restated February 2, 2016. The 2016 restatement, which was not submitted to shareholders for approval, increased the number of shares available for issuance under the plan by 1,000,000. The 2010 LTIP was designed to ensure continued availability of equity awards to assist the Company in attracting, retaining and rewarding key employees, directors and other service providers. Pursuant to the 2010 LTIP, the Compensation Committee was allowed to grant awards to eligible persons in the form of qualified and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and other incentive awards. Up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock were available for issuance under the plan (the initial 1,000,000 of which were eligible to be granted as incentive stock options). Upon approval of our 2019 LTIP, no additional grants were permitted to be made under the 2010 LTIP. Awards vest, become exercisable and contain such other terms and conditions as determined by the Compensation Committee and set forth in individual agreements with the employees receiving the awards. The plan enabled the Compensation Committee to set specific performance criteria that must be met before an award vests under the plan. The 2010 LTIP allowed for acceleration of vesting and exercise privileges of grants upon a change in control or if a participant’s termination of employment is due to death or total disability. If a participant’s job is terminated for cause, then all unvested awards expire at the date of termination.
Other Compensation Programs
Midland States Bank 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan. The Midland States Bank 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) is designed to provide retirement benefits to all eligible full-time and part-time employees of the Bank and its subsidiaries. The 401(k) Plan provides employees with the opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-favored basis. Our NEOs, all of whom were eligible during 2024, may elect to participate in the 401(k) Plan on the same basis as all other employees. Employees may defer 1% to 100% of their compensation to the 401(k) Plan up to the applicable statutory limit. We currently match employee contributions on the first 6% of employee compensation (50 cents for each $1). The Company match is contributed in the form of cash and is invested according to the employee’s current investment allocation. The Company has the authority to make an annual discretionary profit-sharing contribution to the 401(k) Plan, but does not currently do so.
Amended and Restated Midland States Bancorp, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan. We maintain the Amended and Restated Midland States Bancorp, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (Amended and Restated May 3, 2019 and May 1, 2023) (the “ESPP”) for the benefit of our eligible employees. The ESPP is not intended to constitute an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Currently, any employee who is employed by us or any one of our subsidiaries is eligible to participate in the ESPP starting with the first applicable offering period that begins following such employee’s first day of employment. Pursuant to the ESPP, participating employees are permitted to use after-tax dollars, up to a maximum of $25,000 per calendar year of their compensation, to purchase shares of our common stock at the end of each calendar quarter. The purchase price for the stock is currently 90% of the stock’s fair market value as of the first day of each quarterly offering period. While the Compensation Committee could elect a different discount percentage, it does not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. At any time our common stock is listed for trading on a principal national securities exchange, including the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the fair market value under the ESPP is deemed to be the officially quoted closing selling price of the shares on the applicable day. The maximum
number of shares that may be issued under the ESPP is 600,000, which includes the 300,000 originally subject to the ESPP, an additional 200,000 shares approved by shareholders as of May 3, 2019, and an additional 100,000 shares approved by shareholders as of May 1, 2023. As of December 31, 2024, there were 168,476 shares available for issuance under the ESPP.
Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors and Executives. Effective as of November 8, 2018, we maintain two separate deferred compensation plans for the benefit of our non-employee directors and executives which are the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of Midland States Bancorp, Inc., as amended November 5, 2020 and February 1, 2021, (the “Director Deferred Compensation Plan”) and the Deferred Compensation Plan for Executives of Midland States Bancorp, Inc., as amended November 5, 2020, (the “Executive Deferred Compensation Plan”), respectively. The plans provide non-employee directors and executives an opportunity to better plan for their financial futures by providing a vehicle for the deferral of current income taxation. Under the plans, non-employee directors and eligible senior executives are permitted to elect to defer all or a portion of their annual director fees (in whatever form), salary and/or bonus, as the case may be. Any deferrals are credited to a plan account and earn interest based on the notional investment elections of the executives from a selection of measurement funds generally available to participants under the 401(k) Plan. One available notional investment alternative for directors is Company stock units, which track the value of our common stock. For plan years beginning prior to January 1, 2021, participants were permitted to elect to receive their distributions in a lump sum or monthly installments over a period of two to 15 years. Starting with the plan year beginning on January 1, 2021, participants have been permitted to elect to receive their distributions in a lump sum or annual installments over a period of two to five years.
Severance Policy. Under our severance policy, we have the discretion to pay severance to Midland employees, including our NEOs, who are terminated without cause, in connection with a reduction in our workforce, due to the elimination of their job or position, or as a result of a voluntary Midland-initiated early retirement. Pursuant to the terms of the applicable employment or change in control agreement, Messrs. Mefford, Lemke, and Casey are entitled to receive severance under our severance policy if each such NEO is terminated without cause, other than due to death or disability, or resigns for good reason, in each case, not in connection with a change in control. In such instances, the applicable NEO will receive severance equal to four weeks of base salary for each year of continuous service, up to a maximum of 26 weeks of severance. To receive any severance under our severance policy, the applicable NEO would need to execute a settlement agreement and general release.
Career Transition Bonus. Other than Mr. Ludwig, each of our NEOs who has attained age 60 with at least 10 years of service or age 65 with at least five years of service is eligible to receive a career transition bonus of, for Mr. Casey, 35%, or, for each other eligible NEO, 40% of their annual base salary if the NEO provides an 18 month notice of intention to retire, makes a good faith attempt to transfer knowledge and train the NEO’s successor, meets or exceeds performance expectations through the notice period, executes a release, and successfully transitions, as determined by Mr. Ludwig, the NEO’s duties.
Health and Welfare Benefits. Our NEOs are eligible to participate in our standard health and welfare benefits program, which offers medical, dental, vision, life, accident, and disability coverage to all of our eligible employees. We do not provide our NEOs with any health and welfare benefits that are not generally available to our other employees.
Perquisites. We provide our NEOs with certain perquisites that we believe are reasonable and consistent with our overall compensation program to better enable us to attract and retain superior employees for key positions. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews the levels of perquisites and other personal benefits provided to our NEOs. Based on this periodic review, perquisites are awarded or adjusted on an individual basis. The perquisites received by our NEOs in 2024 included allowances for annual country club/social club dues and use of a Company-owned automobile. With respect to our NEOs, country club allowances are provided only to Messrs. Ludwig, Mefford and Lemke and the use of a Company car is provided only to Messrs. Ludwig and Mefford.
CEO Pay Ratio
Pursuant to SEC rules, we are providing information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of Mr. Jeffrey G. Ludwig, our Chief Executive Officer, to the annual total compensation of our median employee.
To determine the median employee, a list of all active full and part-time employees as of December 31, 2023, excluding Mr. Ludwig, was prepared with the corresponding annual total W-2 compensation as reflected in our payroll records. A total of 903 employees were included. Compensation was annualized for any individual not employed for the full calendar year of 2024. Annual total W-2 compensation was ranked from lowest to highest, and the median employee was selected from the list.
Mr. Ludwig had 2024 total compensation of $1,466,243, as reflected in the Summary Compensation Table included herein. The median employee annual total compensation for 2024, using the methodology that was used to calculate Mr. Ludwig’s compensation in the Summary Compensation Table, was $64,853. As a result, the CEO pay ratio is 22.6.
This pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records and the methodology described above. Because the SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, apply certain exclusions, and make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above.
Pay Versus Performance
In accordance with rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), we provide the following disclosure regarding executive “compensation actually paid” (“CAP”) and certain Company performance for the fiscal years listed below. You should refer to our CD&A for a complete description of how executive compensation relates to Company performance and how the Compensation Committee makes its decisions.
The Pay Versus Performance table below summarizes the compensation values both previously reported in our Summary Compensation Table and as required to be adjusted by the rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act for the 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020 calendar years.

(3)Reflects the cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”) of Midland, as provided by S&P Cap IQ, as of the last day of each reported fiscal year, based on an initial fixed investment of $100 on December 31, 2019.
(4)Reflects the cumulative total shareholder return of the S&P Small Cap 600 Banks Index, as of the last day of each reported fiscal year, based on an initial fixed investment of $100 on December 31, 2019. The S&P Small Cap 600 Banks Index is the peer group used in Midland’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
(5)The Company has restated the consolidated financial statements (i) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and (ii) for the year ended December 31, 2022, to correct certain errors, as presented in the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Net Income and Adjusted EPS metrics in this table have been revised for those years. While the Company's financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were also affected by these errors, the Company is not required to restate those financial statements, and accordingly the data for those years remains as previously reported.
(6)Adjusted earnings per share (“Adjusted EPS”) is the Company-Selected Measure and is a non-GAAP financial measure. As calculated from Midland’s audited financial statements, Adjusted EPS equals our earnings, as adjusted for certain items, including loss on sales of investment securities, net, and gain on repurchase of subordinated debt.

Financial Performance Measures

In addition to the Pay Versus Performance table above, the following is a tabular list of the most important financial measures we use to link CAP to our NEOs to Midland performance.

Pay Versus Performance: Graphical Description
The following graphs present the relationship during 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020 between CAP for our CEO and, on an average basis, our non-CEO NEOs and:
•the Company’s cumulative TSR and the Peer Group’s cumulative TSR;
•the Company’s Net Income; and
•the Company-Selected Measure, which for Midland is Adjusted EPS.
Relationship between CAP and Cumulative TSR / Cumulative TSR of the Peer Group
The below chart shows the CEO and average non-CEO NEO CAP relative to Midland’s cumulative TSR and the cumulative TSR of the U.S. Small Cap 600 Banks Index utilized in Midland’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Midland does not use TSR to determine compensation level or incentive plan payouts.
Relationship between CAP and Midland’s Net Income
The below chart shows our CEO and average non-CEO NEO CAP relative to Midland’s net income. Midland does not use net income to determine compensation levels or incentive plan payouts. The Company has restated the consolidated financial statements (i) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and (ii) for the year ended December 31, 2022, to correct certain errors, as presented in the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Net Income metrics in this chart have been revised for those years. While the Company's financial statements
for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were also affected by these errors, the Company is not required to restate those financial statements, and accordingly the data for those years remains as previously reported.
Relationship between CAP and Adjusted EPS
The below table shows the CEO and average non-CEO NEO CAP relative to the Company-Selected Measure – Adjusted Earnings Per Share. Midland uses Adjusted EPS to determine a portion of the payouts under the Bonus Plan. The Company has restated the consolidated financial statements (i) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and (ii) for the year ended December 31, 2022, to correct certain errors, as presented in the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Adjusted EPS metrics in this chart have been revised for those years. While the Company's financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were also affected by these
errors, the Company is not required to restate those financial statements, and accordingly the data for those years remains as previously reported.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners
The following table sets forth information as of June 6, 2025, regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock and our depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of the Company’s 7.75% fixed rate reset non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, Series A (“Series A Depositary Shares”), by:
•each shareholder known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of such class of securities;
•each of our directors;
•each of our NEOs; and
•all of our directors and executive officers as a group.
We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally provide that a person is the beneficial owner of securities if such person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of securities, or to dispose or direct the disposition of securities, or has the right to acquire such powers within 60 days after June 6, 2025. For purposes of calculating each person’s percentage ownership, common stock issuable pursuant to options exercisable within 60 days are included as outstanding and beneficially owned for that person or group but are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as disclosed in the footnotes to this table and subject to applicable community property laws, we believe that each person identified in the table has sole voting and investment power over all of the shares shown opposite such person’s name.
The percentages of beneficial ownership are based on 21,515,138 shares of our common stock, and 4,600,000 Series A Depositary Shares, in each case outstanding as of June 13, 2025.
Unless otherwise provided, the address for each shareholder listed in the table below is: c/o Midland States Bancorp, Inc., 1201 Network Centre Drive, Effingham, Illinois 62401.

ITEM 13– CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Other than the compensation arrangements with directors and executive officers described above and the ordinary course banking relationships described below, there has not been, since January 1, 2024, and there is not currently proposed, any transaction to which we have been a party in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000, and in which any of our directors, executive officers or beneficial holders of more than five percent of our capital stock, or their immediate family members or entities affiliated with them, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Our directors, officers, beneficial owners of more than five percent of our voting securities and their associates were customers of and had transactions with us in the past, and additional transactions with these persons are expected to take place in the future. All outstanding loans and commitments to loan with these persons were made in the ordinary course of business, were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to the Company or the Bank and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. All such loans are approved by the Bank’s board of directors in accordance with the bank regulatory requirements. Similarly, all certificates of deposit and depository relationships with these persons were made in the ordinary course of business and involved substantially the same terms, including interest rates, as those prevailing at the time for comparable depository relationships with persons not related to the Company or the Bank.
Policies and Procedures Regarding Related Party Transactions
Transactions by the Company or the Bank with related parties are subject to certain regulatory requirements and restrictions, including Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (which govern certain transactions by the Bank with its affiliates) and the Federal Reserve’s Regulation O (which governs certain loans by the Bank to its executive officers, directors and principal shareholders).
Under applicable SEC and Nasdaq Stock Market rules, related party transactions are transactions in which we are a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and a related party has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Related parties of the Company include directors (including nominees for election as directors), executive officers, five percent shareholders and the immediate family members of these persons. Our Corporate Counsel, in consultation with management and outside counsel, as appropriate, will review potential related party transactions to determine if they qualify as related party transactions, as defined under SEC rules. If so, as required by the Audit Committee’s charter, the transaction will be referred to Audit Committee for approval. In determining whether to approve a related party transaction, the Audit Committee will consider, among other factors, the fairness of the proposed transaction, the direct or indirect nature of the related party’s interest in the transaction, the appearance of an improper conflict of interests for any director or executive officer taking into account the size of the transaction and the financial position of the related party, whether the transaction would impair an outside director’s independence, the acceptability of the transaction to our regulators and the potential violations of other corporate
policies. The Company’s policies and procedures for the review, approval or ratification of related party transactions are set forth in the Audit Committee’s charter.
Director Independence
We currently have ten directors serving as our board, a majority of whom we have determined to be “independent,” as that term is defined by the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. Our board of directors has evaluated the independence of its members based upon the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market and the SEC. Applying these standards, our board of directors has affirmatively determined that, with the exception of Mr. Ludwig, each of our current directors is an independent director, as defined under the applicable rules. The board determined that Mr. Ludwig does not qualify as an independent director because he is an executive officer of the Company.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

We have adopted a pre-approval policy under which the Audit Committee approves in advance all audit and non-audit services to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm. As part of its pre-approval policy, the Audit Committee considers whether the provision of any proposed non-audit services is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence. In accordance with the pre-approval policy, the Audit Committee has pre-approved certain specified audit and non-audit services to be provided by Crowe LLP for up to twelve months from the date of the pre-approval.
