UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial statements of Farmers and Middlefield, and has been prepared to illustrate the financial effect of the Merger. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information combines the historical consolidated financial position and results of operations of Farmers and its subsidiaries and of Middlefield and its subsidiaries, as an acquisition by Farmers of Middlefield using the acquisition method of accounting (Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805 “Business Combinations”) and giving effect to the related pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of Middlefield will be recorded by Farmers at their respective fair values as of the date the Merger is completed. The pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction with Farmers’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which are incorporated by reference herein, and Middlefield’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which are incorporated by reference herein.

In November 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-08, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2025-08 expands the use of the gross up method to certain acquired loans beyond purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The ASU applies the gross-up method to acquired non-PCD assets that are purchased seasoned loans ultimately eliminating the Day 1 credit loss expense and reducing interest income recognized in subsequent periods. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and is applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. If the ASU is adopted early, the impact would be to remove the CECL expense of $15.1 million which would instead gross up the balance sheet and reduce goodwill.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information set forth below assumes that the Merger was consummated on January 1, 2024 for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income and September 30, 2025 for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and gives effect to the Merger, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income, as if it had been effective during the entire period presented.

These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements reflect the Merger based upon estimated preliminary acquisition accounting adjustments. Actual adjustments will be made as of the effective date of the Merger and, therefore, may differ from those reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements included herein are presented for informational purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the financial results of the combined company had the companies actually been combined at the beginning of each period presented. The adjustments included in these unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements are preliminary and may be revised. This information also does not reflect the benefits of the expected cost savings, expense efficiencies or any potential balance sheet restructuring, opportunities to earn additional revenue, potential impacts of current market conditions on revenues, or asset dispositions, among other factors, and includes various preliminary estimates and may not necessarily be indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have occurred if the Merger had been consummated on the date or at the beginning of the period indicated or which may be attained in the future. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto of Farmers and its subsidiaries and of Middlefield and its subsidiaries. Such information and notes thereto are incorporated by reference herein.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note1 - Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Middlefield will merge into Farmers, with Middlefield shareholders receiving 2.6 shares of Farmers common shares for each share of Middlefield common shares held. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting, giving effect to the Merger. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated balance sheet combines the historical information of Farmers and Middlefield as of September 30, 2025, and assumes the Merger was completed on that date. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated statements of income combine the historical financial information of Farmers and Middlefield and give effect to the Merger as if it had been completed as of January 1, 2024 and carried forward through December 31, 2024 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The preliminary estimated merger consideration and allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

Common shares of Middlefield as of September 30, 2025		8,086,886
Stock based compensation to be converted		240,216
Total shares to be converted		8,327,102
Exchange ratio		2.60
Farmers shares to be issued		21,650,465
Price per share of Farmers common stock (closing price December 3, 2025)	$	13.97
Preliminary estimated merger consideration	$	302,457

The purchase price will depend on the market price of Farmers common stock when the acquisition is consummated. Farmers management believes that a 15% fluctuation in the market price of its common stock is reasonably possible based on historical volatility, and the potential effect on purchase price would be:

	“Farmers Share Price”		“Purchase Price (In Thousands)”
As presented	$	13.97		302,457
15% increase	$	16.07		347,826
15% decrease	$	11.87		257,088
