NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

This report is filed for Lakeland Financial Corporation (the "Company"), which has one wholly owned subsidiary, Lake City Bank (the "Bank"). Also included in this report are results for the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary, LCB Investments II, Inc. ("LCB Investments"), which manages the Bank’s investment securities portfolio. LCB Investments II, Inc. owns LCB Funding, Inc. ("LCB Funding"), a real estate investment trust. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent reporting periods, including the year ending December 31, 2026. The Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K should be read in conjunction with these statements.

Operating Segments

All of the Company's financial results are similar and considered by management to be aggregated into one reportable segment. While the Company has assigned certain management responsibilities by region and business-line, the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") evaluates financial performance on a Company-wide basis. The majority of the Company's revenue is from the business of banking and the Company's assigned regions have similar economic characteristics, products, services and customers.

Financial performance is reported to the CODM monthly, and the primary measure of performance is consolidated net income. The allocation of resources throughout the Company is determined annually based upon consolidated net income performance. The presentation of financial performance to the CODM is consistent with amounts and financial statement line items shown in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income. Additionally, the Company's significant expenses are adequately segmented by category and amount in the consolidated statements of income to include all significant items when considering both qualitative and quantitative factors. Significant expenses of the Company include salaries and employee benefits, net occupancy expense, equipment costs, data processing fees and supplies and professional fees.

Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

On October 9, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative", which modified the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification and was intended to both clarify or improve such requirements and align the requirements with the SEC's regulations. The amendments to Topics of Codification provided in this update apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected Topics unless otherwise indicated by the update. Given the variety of Topics amended, a broad range of entities may be affected by one or more of the amendments provided in the update. The Company evaluated the amendments provided in the update and believes certain of the disclosure improvements could be applicable to the Company's interim or annual disclosures.

The effective date for each amendment for entities subject to the SEC's existing disclosure requirements is the effective date of the removal of the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, with early adoption prohibited. The amendments in the update are to be applied prospectively. The Company will apply prospectively the provisions provided in the amendments as such provisions become effective, and does not believe the application of these modified disclosure requirements will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. If by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment in the update will be removed from the Codification and will not become effective.

On November 8, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income— Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses", to improve the disclosures surrounding a public business entity's expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development).

The amendments in this update require disclosure, in the notes to the financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The amendments require that at each interim and annual reporting period an entity (1) Disclose the amounts of (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) intangible asset amortization and (e) depreciation, depletion and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities (DD&A) (or other amounts of depletion expense) included in each relevant expense caption. A relevant expense caption is an expense caption presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations that contains any of the following expense categories listed in (a)-(e); (2) Include certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under current GAAP in the same disclosure as other disaggregation requirements; (3) Disclose a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively; and (4) Disclose the total amount of selling expenses, and in annual reporting periods, an entity's definition of selling expenses. An entity is not precluded from providing additional voluntarily disclosures that may provide investors with additional decision-useful information.

On January 6, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date", to clarify the effective date of the ASU 2024-03. The update amends the effective date of Update 2024-03 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this update on its disclosures, however does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

On September 18, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal Use-Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software", to modernize the accounting for software costs to better align the guidance with current software development practices. Specifically, many entities have shifted from using a prescriptive and sequential ("linear") development method to using an incremental and iterative ("agile") development method, the latter of which is not contemplated in the current guidance and presents a challenge to stakeholders in determining when to begin capitalizing internal-use software costs.

The amendments in this update remove all references to linear project stages, and instead require an entity to start capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur: (1) Management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) It is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended (referred to as the "probable-to-complete recognition threshold"). In evaluating the probable-to-complete recognition threshold, an entity is required to consider whether there is significant uncertainty associated with the development activities of the software (referred to as "significant development uncertainty"). The two factors to consider in determining whether there is significant development uncertainty are whether: (1) The software being developed has technological innovations or novel, unique, or unproven functions or features, and the uncertainty related to those technological innovations, functions, or features, if identified, has not been resolved through coding and testing and (2) The entity has determined what it needs the software to do, including whether the entity has identified or continues to substantially revise the software's significant performance requirements. The amendments in the update specify that internal-use software costs must be disclosed according to applicable property, plant and equipment guidance, regardless of how such costs are presented in the financial statements. Furthermore, the amendments in the update supersede website development costs guidance and incorporate the recognition requirements for website-specific development costs into Subtopic 350-40.

The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The amendments in the update may be applied using a prospective transition approach, a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption or a retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this update on its disclosures, however does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

On November 12, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-08, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans", to expand the population of acquired financial assets subject to the gross-up approach in Topic 326. In accordance with the amendments in this update, loans (excluding credit cards) acquired without credit deterioration and deemed "seasoned" are purchased seasoned loans and are accounted for using the gross-up approach at acquisition. Specifically, after an entity determines that a loan is a non-purchased financial asset with credit deterioration ("PCD") asset based on its assessment of credit deterioration experienced since origination, the entity should apply the guidance described in the amendments to determine whether the loan is seasoned and, therefore, should be accounted for using the gross-up approach. All non-PCD loans (excluding credit cards) that are acquired in a business combination are deemed seasoned. Other non-PCD loans (excluding credit cards) are seasoned if they were purchased at least 90 days after origination and the acquirer was not involved in the origination of the loans.

The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to loans that are acquired on or after the initial application date. Early adoption is permitted in an interim or annual reporting period in which the financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity adopts the amendments in an interim reporting period, it should apply the amendments as of the beginning of that interim reporting period or the beginning of the annual reporting period that includes that interim reporting period. The Company does not anticipate this standard will have an impact on the Company's financial statements based upon the nature of the Company's current operations.

On December 8, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, "Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements", to improve the guidance in Topic 270, by clarifying interim disclosure requirements and the applicability of Topic 270. The amendments in this update result in a comprehensive list of interim disclosures that are required by GAAP. In developing the list of disclosures required by other Topics, the FASB board focused on identifying the interim disclosures that are currently required under GAAP. The objective of the amendments is to provide clarity about the current requirements, rather than evaluate whether to expand or reduce interim disclosure requirements. The amendments in this update also include a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The intent of the disclosure principle, which is modeled after a previous SEC disclosure requirement, is to help entities determine whether disclosures not specified in Topic 270 should be provided in interim reporting periods. The amendments in this update also clarify the applicability of Topic 270, the types of interim reporting, and the form and content of interim financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The FASB board expects these clarifications will enhance consistency in interim financial reporting in interim for all entities and considers the amendments to be necessary to reflect the development of interim reporting over time.

The amendments in this update are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, for public business entities and for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, for entities other than public business entities. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, and can be applied either (1) prospectively or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this update on its financial disclosures, however does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

On December 17, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, "Codification Improvements". The amendments in this update represent changes that (1) Clarify, (2) Correct errors or (3) Make minor improvements to the Codification. The amendments are intended to make the Codification easier to understand and apply. The amendments in this update are varied in nature and may affect the application of guidance in cases in which the original guidance may have been unclear. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual reporting beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual reporting periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity adopts the amendments in this update in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the annual reporting period that includes the interim period. An entity may elect to early adopt the amendments on an issue-by-issue basis. For example, an entity may decide to early adopt certain amendments and adopt the remaining amendments at the effective date. An entity may also elect the transition method on an issue-by-issue basis. For example, it may apply certain amendments prospectively while applying others retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the update on its financial disclosures, however does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company has the current intent and ability to hold held-to-maturity securities until maturity. All of the Company's securities designated as held-to-maturity were transferred from the available-for-sale classification. The net unrealized gain or loss on the transferred securities was recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) at the time of the transfer and is amortized over the remaining life of the underlying securities as an adjustment to the yield on those securities. The net amount of the unamortized unrealized loss on the transferred securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was $16.0 million ($12.7 million, net of tax) at June 30, 2026.

Available-for-sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions are evaluated for impairment related to credit losses at least quarterly. For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, management first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that the Company 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 the consolidated income statement. For available-for-sale debt securities that do not meet the above criteria and for held-to-maturity securities, management 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 and the issuer, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, management compares the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. For available-for-sale debt securities, any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable taxes.

No allowance for credit losses for available-for-sale or held-to-maturity debt securities was recorded at June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. Accrued interest receivable on securities totaled $7.9 million and $7.8 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

The U.S. Treasury, U.S. government sponsored agencies and mortgage-backed securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major credit rating agencies, and have a long history of no credit losses. Therefore, for those securities, we do not record expected credit losses. State and municipal securities credit losses are benchmarked against highly rated municipal securities of similar duration, as published by Moody's, resulting in an immaterial allowance for credit losses.

NOTE 4. ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES AND CREDIT QUALITY

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to provide for expected credit losses. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes that the principal is uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Allocations of the allowance are made for specific loans and for pools of similar types of loans, although the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged against the allowance. A provision for credit losses is taken based on management’s ongoing evaluation of the appropriate allowance balance. A formal evaluation of the adequacy of the credit loss allowance is conducted monthly. The ultimate recovery of all loans is susceptible to future market factors beyond the Company’s control.

The level of credit loss provision is influenced by growth in the overall loan portfolio, emerging market risk, emerging concentration risk, commercial loan focus and large credit concentration, new industry lending activity, general economic conditions and historical loss analysis. In addition, management gives consideration to changes in the facts and circumstances of watch list credits, which includes the security position of the borrower, in determining the appropriate level of the credit loss provision. Furthermore, management’s overall view on credit quality is a factor in the determination of the provision.

The determination of the appropriate allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires significant estimates by management. The Company has an established process to determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses that generally includes consideration of changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio and overall portfolio quality, along with current and forecasted economic conditions that may affect borrowers' ability to repay. Consideration is not limited to these factors although they represent the most commonly cited factors. To determine the specific allocation levels for individual credits, management considers the current valuation of collateral and the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows as the primary measures. Management also considers trends in adversely classified loans based upon an ongoing review of those credits. With respect to pools of similar loans, an appropriate level of general allowance is determined by portfolio segment using a probability of default-loss given default ("PD/LGD") model, subject to a floor. A default can be triggered by one of several different asset quality factors, including past due status, nonaccrual status, material modification to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty status or if the loan has had a charge-off. This PD is then combined with a LGD derived from historical charge-off data to construct a loss rate. This loss rate is then supplemented with adjustments for reasonable and supportable forecasts of relevant economic indicators, particularly the unemployment rate forecast from the Federal Open Market Committee's Summary of Economic Projections, as well as portfolio trends based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. These environmental factors include consideration of the following: levels of, and trends in, delinquencies and nonperforming loans; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedure, and practices; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; national and local economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations. It is also possible that these factors could include social, political, economic, and terrorist events or activities. All of these factors are susceptible to change, which may be significant. As a result of this detailed process, the allowance results in two forms of allocations, specific and pooled. These two components represent the total allowance for credit losses deemed adequate to cover expected losses within the loan portfolio.

Commercial loans are subject to a dual standardized grading process administered by the credit administration function. These grade assignments are performed independent of each other and a consensus is reached by credit administration and the loan officer. Individual allowances are established in cases where management has identified significant conditions or circumstances related to a specific credit that indicate it should be analyzed on an individual basis. Considerations with respect to allocations for these individually analyzed credits include, but are not limited to, the following: (a) the sufficiency of the customer's cash flow or net worth to repay the loan; (b) the adequacy of the discounted value of collateral relative to the loan balance; (c) whether the loan has been criticized in a regulatory examination; (d) whether the loan is nonperforming; (e) any other reasons the ultimate collectability of the loan may be in question; or (f) any unique loan characteristics that require special monitoring.

Allocations are also applied to categories of loans considered not to be individually analyzed, but for which the rate of loss is expected to be consistent with or greater than historical averages. Such allocations are based on past loss experience and information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values. These general pooled loan allocations are performed for portfolio segments of commercial and industrial; commercial real estate, multi-family, and construction; agri-business and agricultural; other commercial loans; and consumer 1-4 family mortgage and other consumer loans. Pooled allocations of the allowance are determined by a historical loss rate based on the calculation of each pool's probability of default-loss given default, subject to a floor. The length of the historical period for each pool is based on the average life of the pool, which is updated at least annually. The historical loss rates are all supplemented with consideration of economic conditions and portfolio trends.

Table of Contents

Due to the imprecise nature of estimating the allowance for credit losses, the Company's allowance for credit losses includes an immaterial unallocated component. The unallocated component of the allowance for credit losses incorporates the Company’s judgmental determination of potential expected losses that may not be fully reflected in other allocations. As a practical expedient, the Company has elected to disclose accrued interest separately from loan principal balances on the consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, when a loan is placed on non-accrual, interest payments are reversed through interest income.

For off balance sheet credit exposures outlined in the ASC at 326-20-30-11, it is the Company's position that nearly all of the unfunded amounts on lines of credit are unconditionally cancellable, and therefore not subject to having a liability recorded.

The following tables present the activity in the allowance for credit losses by portfolio segment for the periods shown:

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes commercial loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis for Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful grade loans and annually on Pass grade loans over $250,000.

The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as Special Mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the Company’s credit position at some future date.

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

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

Loans are considered to be "Pass" rated when they are reviewed as part of the previously described process and do not meet the criteria above, which are evaluated and listed with Substandard commercial grade loans and consumer nonaccrual loans, which are evaluated individually and listed with “Not Rated” loans. Loans listed as Not Rated are consumer loans or commercial loans with consumer characteristics included in groups of homogenous loans which are analyzed for credit quality indicators utilizing delinquency status.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans:

The Company does not record interest on nonaccrual loans until principal is recovered. For all loan classes, a loan is generally placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest becomes 90 days past due unless it is well secured and in the process of collection, or earlier when concern exists as to the ultimate collectability of principal or interest. Interest accrued but not received is reversed against earnings. Cash interest received on these loans is applied to the principal balance until the principal is recovered or until the loan returns to accrual status. Loans may be returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current, remain current for a prescribed period, and future payments are reasonably assured.

When management determines that foreclosure is probable, expected credit losses for collateral dependent loans are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate. A loan is considered collateral dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the loan is expected to be repaid substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. The class of loan represents the primary collateral type associated with the loan. Significant quarter over quarter changes are reflective of changes in nonaccrual status and not necessarily associated with credit quality indicators like appraisal value.

Loan Modifications Made to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

The allowance for credit losses incorporates an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses using historical loss information. The Company uses a probability of default/loss given default model to determine an estimate which is recorded for each asset upon origination. Occasionally, the Company has reason to modify certain terms of loans for borrowers experiencing financial distress by providing the following forms of relief: forgiveness of loan principal, extension of repayment terms, interest rate reduction or an other than insignificant payment delay. The Company can make any or all of these types of concessions as part of such modifications. Since an estimate for historical losses is already included as a component of the allowance for credit losses, a change to the allowance for credit losses is generally not recorded at the time of such modifications unless the loan is individually analyzed and the modification changes the specific reserve allocation. In the event forgiveness of principal is provided, the amount of the forgiveness is charged off against the allowance for credit losses.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no material modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

The Company closely monitors the performance of loans that are modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty by reviewing the delinquency and payment default status of such loans to understand the effectiveness of its relief efforts.

At June 30, 2026, no loans receiving a modification due to borrower financial difficulty within the previous twelve months were greater than 30 days or more past due or had experienced a payment default.

Upon the Company's determination that a modified loan (or portion thereof) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion thereof) is written off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the allowance for credit losses is adjusted by the same amount.

NOTE 5. BORROWINGS

For the periods ended below, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis ("FHLBI") were as follows:


(dollars in thousands)	June 30, 2026		December 31, 2025
Short-term advance	$	70,000	$	170,000
Long-term advance	1,200		1,200
Total	$	71,200	$	171,200

For the period ended June 30, 2026, the Company had advances outstanding from the FHLBI of $71.2 million. The short-term advance of $70.0 million was a floating rate advance due September 28, 2026 and had an interest rate of 3.78%, and was fully repaid on July 13, 2026. The long-term advance of $1.2 million was a fixed rate bullet advance due March 12, 2035 and had an interest rate of 0.00%. This advance is a rate-subsidized Community Development Financial Institution ("CDFI") Rate Buydown Advance offered by the FHLBI that funded a low cost loan to a qualifying CDFI. For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Company had advances outstanding with the FHLBI of $171.2 million. The $170.0 million short-term FHLBI advance was repaid on January 8, 2026. There were no Federal Funds purchased outstanding at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

On October 10, 2025, the Company renewed an unsecured revolving credit agreement with a financial institution allowing the Company to borrow up to $30.0 million. The credit agreement has a one year term which may be amended, extended, modified or renewed. Funds provided under the agreement can be used to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program, which was reauthorized by the Company’s board of directors on April 8, 2025, amended on March 5, 2026, and expires on April 30, 2027, and for general operations. The credit agreement includes a negative pledge agreement whereby the Company agrees not to pledge or otherwise encumber the stock of the Bank. There was no outstanding balance on the credit agreement at June 30, 2026 and $13.0 million outstanding at December 31, 2025.

NOTE 6. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

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

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

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

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

Securities: Securities available-for-sale are valued primarily by a third party pricing service. The fair values of securities available-for-sale are determined on a recurring basis by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or pricing models which utilize significant observable inputs such as matrix pricing. This is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). These models utilize the market approach with standard inputs that include, but are not limited to benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data. For certain municipal securities that are not rated and observable inputs about the specific issuer are not available, fair values are estimated using observable data from other municipal securities presumed to be similar or other market data on other non-rated municipal securities (Level 3 inputs).

The Company’s Finance Department, which is responsible for all accounting and SEC disclosure compliance, and the Company’s Treasury Department, which is responsible for investment portfolio management and asset/liability modeling, are the two areas that determine the Company’s valuation policies and procedures. Both of these areas report directly to the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. For assets or liabilities that may be considered for Level 3 fair value measurement on a recurring basis, these two departments and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer determine the appropriate level of the assets or liabilities under consideration. If there are new assets or liabilities that are determined to be Level 3 by this group, the Risk Management Committee of the Company and the Audit Committee of the Board are made aware of such assets at their next scheduled meeting.

Securities pricing is obtained from a third party pricing service and all security prices are tested annually against prices from another third party provider and reviewed with a market value price tolerance variance that varies by sector: municipal securities +/-5%, government MBS/CMO +/-3% and U.S. treasuries +/-1%. If any securities fall outside the tolerance threshold and have a variance of $100,000 or more, a determination of materiality is made for the amount over the threshold. Any security that would have a material threshold difference would be further investigated to determine why the variance exists and if any action is needed concerning the security pricing for that individual security. Changes in market value are reviewed monthly in aggregate by security type and any material changes are reviewed to determine why they exist. At least annually, the pricing methodology of the pricing service is received and reviewed to support the fair value levels used by the Company. A detailed pricing evaluation is requested and reviewed on any security determined to be fair valued using unobservable inputs by the pricing service.

Mortgage banking derivative: The fair values of mortgage banking derivatives are based on observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Interest rate swap derivatives: Our derivatives are traded in an over-the-counter market where quoted market prices are not always available. Therefore, the fair values of derivatives are determined using quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs. The inputs will vary based on the type of derivative, but could include interest rates, prices and indices to generate continuous yield or pricing curves, prepayment rates, and volatility factors to value the position. The majority of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including brokers, market transactions and third-party pricing

services. The fair value of interest rate swap derivatives is determined by pricing or valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Collateral dependent loans: Collateral dependent loans with specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses are generally based on the fair value of the underlying collateral when repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Fair value is determined using several methods. Generally, the fair value of real estate is based on appraisals by qualified third party appraisers. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. In addition, the Company’s management routinely applies internal discount factors to the value of appraisals used in the fair value evaluation of collateral dependent loans. The deductions to the appraisals take into account changing business factors and market conditions, as well as value impairment in cases where the appraisal date predates a likely change in market conditions. Commercial real estate is generally discounted from its appraised value by 30-50% with the higher discounts applied to real estate that is determined to have a thin trading market or to be specialized collateral. In addition to real estate, the Company’s management evaluates other types of collateral as follows: (a) raw materials inventory is discounted from its cost or book value by 40-60%, depending on the marketability of the goods; (b) finished goods are generally discounted by 40-60%, depending on the ease of marketability, cost of transportation or scope of use of the finished good; (c) work in process inventory is typically discounted by 60%-100%, depending on the length of manufacturing time, types of components used in the completion process, and the breadth of the user base; (d) equipment is valued at a percentage of depreciated book value or recent appraised value, if available, and is typically discounted at 20-50% after various considerations including age and condition of the equipment, marketability, breadth of use, and whether the equipment includes unique components or add-ons; and (e) marketable securities are discounted by 10%-30%, depending on the type of investment, age of valuation report and general market conditions. This methodology is based on a market approach and typically results in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Mortgage servicing rights: As of June 30, 2026, the value of the Company’s Level 3 servicing assets for residential mortgage loans (“MSRs”) was $1.5 million, carried at amortized cost and an immaterial valuation reserve. These residential mortgage loans have a weighted average interest rate of 4.0%, a weighted average maturity of 20 years and are secured by homes generally within the Company’s market area of Northern Indiana and Indianapolis. A third-party valuation is used to estimate fair value by stratifying the portfolios on the basis of certain risk characteristics, including loan type and interest rate. Impairment is estimated based on an income approach. The inputs used include estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, cost to service, escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income, ancillary income, late fees and float income. The most significant assumption used to value MSRs is prepayment rate. Prepayment rates are estimated based on published industry consensus prepayment rates. The most significant unobservable assumption is the discount rate. At June 30, 2026, the constant prepayment speed (“PSA”) used was 167 and used a discount rate of 9.5%. At December 31, 2025, the PSA used was 168 and the discount rate used was 9.5%.

Other real estate owned: Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties, classified as other real estate owned, are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property and are reviewed by the Company’s internal appraisal officer. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable properties used to determine value. Such adjustments are usually significant and result in a Level 3 classification. In addition, the Company’s management may apply discount factors to the appraisals to take into account changing business factors and market conditions, as well as value impairment in cases where the appraisal date predates a likely change in market conditions. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized.

Real estate mortgage loans held-for-sale: Real estate mortgage loans held-for-sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments, from third party investors, and result in a Level 2 classification.

If an event of default occurs causing an early termination of an interest rate swap derivative, any early termination amount payable to one party by the other party may be reduced by set-off against any other amount payable by the one party to the other party. If a default in performance of any obligation of a repurchase agreement occurs, each party will set-off property held in respect of transactions against obligations owing in respect of any other transactions.

NOTE 8. LEASES

The Company leases certain office facilities under long-term operating lease agreements. The leases expire at various dates through 2044 and some include renewal options. Many of these leases require the payment of property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance, utilities and other costs. In many cases, rentals are subject to increase in relation to a cost-of-living index. The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components together as a single lease component. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded as a right-of-use ("ROU") lease asset and are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company's corresponding lease obligations are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. ROU lease assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating ROU lease assets and obligations are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU lease asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Short-term leases are leases having a term of twelve months or less. The Company recognizes short-term leases on a straight-line basis and does not record a related lease asset or liability for such leases, as allowed as a practical expedient of the standard.

The Company has Indiana net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $31.2 million at June 30, 2026 that will expire in 2039 if not used. Management has concluded that the state net operating losses will be fully utilized and therefore no valuation allowance is necessary on the state operating loss.

In addition to the net deferred tax assets included above, the deferred income tax asset (liability) allocated to the unrealized gain (loss) on securities available for sale was $33.0 million and $33.7 million for June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The deferred income tax asset allocated to the pension plan and SERP included in equity was $167,000 and $175,000 at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

The Company evaluated its deferred tax asset at year end 2025 and has concluded that it is more likely than not that it will be realized. The Company expects to have taxable income in the future such that the deferred tax asset will be realized. Therefore, no valuation allowance is required.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

No interest or penalties were recorded in the income statement and no amount was accrued for interest and penalties for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary, it is the Company's policy to record such accruals in its income taxes accounts.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Net income in the first six months of 2026 was $54.9 million, which increased $7.9 million, or 16.7%, from $47.1 million for the comparable period of 2025. Diluted earnings per common share were $2.17 in the first six months of 2026, an increase of 19.2% from $1.82 in the comparable period of 2025. The increase in net income for 2026 was primarily due to an increase to net interest income of $7.3 million, or 6.8%, an increase in noninterest income of $3.1 million, or 13.8%, and a decrease in the provision for credit losses of $6.1 million, or 62.2%. Offsetting these positive contributions was an increase in noninterest expense of $6.4 million, or 10.1%, and an increase to income tax expense of $2.2 million, or 22.0%. Pretax pre-provision earnings, a non-GAAP measure calculated by adding net interest income to noninterest income and subtracting noninterest expense, were $71.0 million in the first six months of 2026, an increase of $4.0 million, or 6.0%, compared to $67.0 million for the comparable period of 2025.

Return on average total equity was 14.44% in the first six months of 2026 versus 13.62% in the comparable period of 2025. Return on average total assets was 1.55% in the first six months of 2026 versus 1.39% for the comparable period of 2025. The Company's average equity to average assets ratio was 10.74% in the first six months of 2026 versus 10.19% in the comparable period of 2025.

Net income in the second quarter of 2026 was $28.4 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 5.5%, from $27.0 million for the comparable period of 2025. Diluted earnings per common share were $1.13 in the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 8.7% from $1.04 in the comparable period of 2025. The increase was driven primarily by an increase in net interest income of $3.4 million, or 6.2%, a decrease in provision for credit losses of $1.3 million, or 43.1%, and an increase in noninterest income of $1.1 million, or 9.5%. Offsetting these positive contributions was an increase in noninterest expense of $4.0 million, or 13.2%. Pretax pre-provision earnings in the second quarter of 2026 were $36.4 million, an increase of $486,000, or 1.4%, compared to $35.9 million for the comparable period of 2025.

Return on average total equity was 15.00% in the second quarter of 2026 versus 15.52% in the comparable period of 2025. Return on average total assets was 1.59% in the second quarter of 2026 versus 1.57% in the comparable period of 2025. The average equity to average assets ratio was 10.58% in the second quarter of 2026 versus 10.09% in the comparable period of 2025.

The Company’s tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was 10.63% at June 30, 2026, compared to 10.15% at June 30, 2025 and 10.86% at December 31, 2025. Unrealized losses from available-for-sale investment securities were $140.9 million at June 30, 2026, compared to $185.3 million at June 30, 2025 and $143.3 million at December 31, 2025. When excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") on tangible common equity and tangible assets, the Company's adjusted tangible common equity to adjusted tangible assets ratio, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was 12.14% at June 30, 2026, compared to 12.17% at June 30, 2025 and 12.45% at December 31, 2025.

Total assets were $7.243 billion as of June 30, 2026 versus $6.990 billion as of December 31, 2025, an increase of $252.9 million, or 3.6%. Balance sheet expansion was driven by increases to total loans, net of the allowance for credit losses, which increased $202.7 million, or 3.8%, and cash and cash equivalents, which increased $52.8 million, or 37.4%. These increases were offset by a decrease to available-for-sale securities of $16.9 million, or 1.6%. The balance sheet expansion from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026 was funded by an increase in total deposits of $356.2 million, or 6.0%, and was offset by a decrease in borrowings of $113.0 million, or 61.3%. Total equity increased $10.9 million, or 1.4%, from $762.5 million at December 31, 2025 to $773.4 million at June 30, 2026. Driving the increase in total equity was an increase in retained earnings of $28.7 million, or 3.6%, primarily as a result of net income of $54.9 million less dividends declared and paid of $26.3 million. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) improved by $2.7 million and contributed further to the increase in total equity. Offsetting these items was an increase in treasury stock, which increased by $23.5 million, or 65.7%, driven by the Company's utilization of its share repurchase program. The combined effect of the repurchase activity under the share repurchase program and dividends paid during the first six months of 2026 represented a total return of capital to Company shareholders of $49.8 million.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Certain of the Company’s accounting policies are important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Some of the facts and circumstances which could affect these judgments include changes in interest rates, in the performance of the economy or in the financial condition of borrowers. Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for credit losses. See “Note 4 – Allowance for Credit Losses and Credit Quality” for more information on this critical accounting policy.

(1)Noninterest expense (C) / (Net interest income (A) + Noninterest income (B)) = Efficiency Ratio

(2)Non-GAAP financial measure. Calculated by subtracting intangible assets, net of deferred tax, from total assets and total equity. Management believes this is an important measure because it is useful for planning and forecasting purposes. See reconciliation on the following pages.

(3)Non-GAAP financial measure. Calculated by removing the fair market value adjustment impact of the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") from tangible equity and tangible assets. Management believes this is an important measure because it provides better comparability to periods preceding the cycle of monetary policy tightening from 2022 and 2023 and demonstrates the Company's longer-term trend in capital strength. See reconciliation on the following pages.

(4)Non-GAAP financial measure. Pretax pre-provision earnings is calculated by adding net interest income to noninterest income and subtracting noninterest expense. Management believes this is an important measure because it may enable investors to identify the trends in the Company's earnings exclusive of the effects of tax and provision expense, which may vary significantly from period to period. See reconciliation on the following pages.

The Company believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful to understanding the Company's financial performance.

Tangible common equity, adjusted tangible common equity, tangible assets, adjusted tangible assets, tangible book value per common share, tangible common equity to tangible assets, adjusted tangible common equity to adjusted tangible assets, and pretax pre-provision earnings are non-GAAP financial measures calculated based on GAAP amounts. Tangible common equity is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of equity, net of deferred tax. Tangible assets are calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of total assets, net of deferred tax. Adjusted tangible assets and adjusted tangible common equity remove the fair market value adjustment impact of the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio in AOCI. Tangible book value per common share is calculated by dividing tangible common equity by the number of shares outstanding less true treasury stock. Pretax pre-provision earnings is calculated by adding net interest income to noninterest income and subtracting noninterest expense. Because not all companies use the same calculation of tangible common equity and tangible assets, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures calculated by other companies. However, management considers these measures of the Company’s value meaningful to understanding of the Company’s financial information and performance.

A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided below.

(1)Tax exempt income was converted to a fully tax equivalent basis at a 21 percent tax rate. The tax equivalent rate for tax exempt loans and tax exempt securities acquired after January 1, 1983 included the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (“TEFRA”) adjustment applicable to nondeductible interest expenses. Tax equivalent basis adjustments was $1.1 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025.

(2)Loan fees, which are immaterial in relation to total taxable loan interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, are included as taxable loan interest income.

(3)Nonaccrual loans are included in the average balance of taxable loans.

Net interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, increased $7.3 million, or 6.6%, to $117.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $110.0 million for the first six months of 2025. The increase in net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis was driven by a decrease in deposit interest expense of $5.8 million, or 7.6%, from $75.6 million to $69.8 million. Contributing further to the increase in fully tax equivalent net interest income was an increase in loan interest income of $2.9 million, or 1.8%, from $166.9 million to $169.8 million, and an increase in securities interest income of $710,000, or 4.2%, from $16.8 million to $17.5 million. Offsetting these items was an increase in borrowings expense of $731,000, or 48.1%, from $1.5 million to $2.3 million.

Table of Contents

Average earning assets were $6.781 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $280.2 million, or 4.3%, compared to $6.501 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Average loans outstanding drove the increase to average earning assets, increasing $278.5 million, or 5.3%, to $5.486 billion from $5.208 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Average investment securities increased $45.0 million, or 4.0%, to $1.176 billion from $1.131 billion between the respective periods. Average interest bearing liabilities were $5.069 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $267.2 million, or 5.6%, from $4.802 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025. This increase was driven by growth in average interest bearing deposits of $218.6 million, or 4.6%, from $4.735 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to $4.954 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Average short-term borrowings increased by $48.1 million, or 72.5%, between the respective periods. Noninterest bearing demand deposits decreased $20.1 million, or 1.6%, to $1.231 billion from $1.251 billion between the two periods.

The fully tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.49% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 3.41% during the first six months of 2025, representing an 8 basis point expansion between the two periods. The net interest margin increase was primarily driven by a decrease to interest expense as a percentage of average earning assets, which decreased to 2.14% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, down from 2.39% for the comparable period of 2025, or a decrease of 25 basis points. This decline was attributable to a decrease in the rate for total interest bearing liabilities of 37 basis points from 3.24% to 2.87% between the respective periods. These decreases were driven by reduced costs associated with the repricing of the Company's interest bearing deposits and borrowings as a result of monetary policy easing from the Federal Reserve Bank in late 2025. The average rate for interest bearing deposits declined 38 basis points from 3.22% to 2.84% between the two periods. Contributing further to the reduction in the rate for interest bearing liabilities was a reduction in the average borrowings rate, which declined 65 basis points from 4.57% to 3.92%. The improvement in interest expense as a percentage of average earning assets was offset by a 17 basis point reduction in interest income as a percentage of average earning assets, which declined from 5.80% to 5.63%. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decline in average loan yields, which decreased 22 basis points to 6.24% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, down from 6.46% for the comparable period of 2025.

Net interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, increased by $3.4 million, or 6.1%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis was driven by a decrease in deposit interest expense of $2.7 million, or 7.0%, from $39.1 million to $36.4 million. Contributing further to the increase in fully tax equivalent net interest income was an increase in loan interest income of $1.6 million, or 1.9%, from $84.8 million to $86.4 million, and an increase to securities interest income of $264,000, or 3.1%, from $8.4 million to $8.7 million between the two periods. Offsetting these, borrowings expense increased $70,000, or 17.6%, from $398,000 to $468,000.

Average earning assets were $6.833 billion for the second quarter of 2026, an increase of $262.1 million, or 4.0%, compared to $6.571 billion for the second quarter of 2025. The increase in average earning assets was driven by an increase in average loans of $301.7 million, or 5.8%, from $5.230 billion for the second quarter of 2025 to $5.531 billion for the second quarter of 2026. Average investment securities increased $36.2 million, or 3.2%, from $1.126 billion for the second quarter of 2025 to $1.162 billion for the second quarter of 2026. Average interest bearing liabilities were $5.133 billion for the second quarter of 2026, an increase of $246.5 million, or 5.0%, from $4.887 billion for the second quarter of 2025. This increase was driven by growth in interest bearing deposits of $232.5 million, or 4.8%, from $4.852 billion for the second quarter of 2025 to $5.085 billion for the second quarter of 2026. Average short-term borrowings increased $14.0 million, or 42.0%, from $33.3 million to $47.3 million. Noninterest bearing demand deposits decreased $16.3 million, or 1.3%, to $1.228 billion for the second quarter of 2026 from $1.244 billion for the second quarter of 2025.

The fully tax equivalent net interest margin expanded by 7 basis points, or 2.0%, to 3.49% for the second quarter of 2026, compared to 3.42% for the second quarter of 2025. The net interest margin expansion was primarily driven by a decrease in interest expense as a percentage of average earning assets, which decreased to 2.16% for the second quarter of 2026, down from 2.41% for the comparable period of 2025, for a decrease of 25 basis points. This decrease was attributable to a decrease in the rate for total interest bearing liabilities of 36 basis points from 3.24% to 2.88% between the respective periods. This decrease was driven by reduced costs associated with the repricing of the Company's interest bearing deposits and borrowings as a result of monetary policy easing from the Federal Reserve Bank in late 2025. The average rate for interest bearing deposits declined 36 basis points from 3.23% to 2.87%. Contributing further to the reduction in the rate for interest bearing liabilities was a reduction in the average borrowings rate, which declined 76 basis points from 4.63% to 3.87%. The improvement in interest expense as a percentage of average earning assets was offset by a 18 basis point reduction in interest income as a percentage of average earning assets, which declined from 5.83% for the second quarter of 2025 to 5.65% for the second quarter of 2026. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in loan yields, which decreased 24 basis points from 6.50% to 6.26% between the two periods. Investment securities yields remained at 3.00% for both periods.

Provision for Credit Losses

The Company recorded provision for credit losses expense of $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to provision expense of $9.8 million during the comparable period of 2025, a decrease of $6.1 million, or 62.2%. The decrease in provision expense between the respective periods was attributable to the allocation of reserves to a previously disclosed nonperforming credit during the first quarter of 2025. Net charge-offs were $2.1 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2026, compared to $29.2 million during the comparable period of 2025 for a decrease of $27.1 million, or 92.8%. Net charge-offs for the first six months of 2026 were primarily driven by a $2.0 million charge off to one commercial credit during the first quarter of 2026. The decrease in charge offs between the respective periods was attributable to the partial charge off of the previously disclosed nonperforming credit during the second quarter of 2025.

The Company recorded provision expense of $1.7 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared to $3.0 million during the second quarter of 2025. Net charge-offs were $24,000 during the second quarter of 2026 compared to $28.9 million during the second quarter of 2025.

Additional factors considered by management in determining provision expense included key loan quality metrics, reserve coverage of nonperforming loans, economic conditions in the Company’s markets, and changes in the facts and circumstances of watch list credits, which includes the security position of the borrower. Management’s overall view on current credit quality was also a factor in the determination of the provision for credit losses. The Company’s management continues to monitor the adequacy of the provision based on loan levels, asset quality, economic conditions and other factors that may influence the assessment of the collectability of loans.

The company’s noninterest income increased $1.1 million, or 9.5%, to $12.6 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $11.5 million for the second quarter of 2025. Wealth advisory fees increased $350,000, or 13.1%, driven by continued growth in customers and assets under management. Bank owned life insurance income increased $577,000, or 55.5%, from improved market performance of the bank's variable owned life insurance policies which reflect returns in the equity markets. Other income increased by $127,000, or 31.9%, primarily from increased limited partnership investment income.

The Company's noninterest expense increased by $6.4 million, or 10.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 to $69.6 million compared to $63.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $5.8 million, or 16.5%, primarily due to increased salaries and wages of $2.0 million, performance-based incentive compensation accruals of $2.3 million, variable deferred compensation expense of $799,000, and health insurance expense of $677,000. Net occupancy expense increased $344,000, or 9.2%. Data processing fees and supplies expense increased $216,000, or 2.6%, from continued investment in customer-facing and operational technology solutions. Corporate and business development expense increased $169,000, or 6.6%, from increased advertising and corporate development expenses. FDIC insurance and other regulatory fees increased $115,000, or 7.0%, from increased FDIC insurance premium accruals. Offsetting these increases was a decrease in professional fees of $364,000, or 8.9%, primarily driven by reduced technology implementation fees.

Noninterest expense increased $4.0 million, or 13.2%, to $34.5 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $30.4 million during the second quarter of 2025. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $3.4 million, or 19.9%, primarily the result of increased salaries and wages, performance-based incentive compensation accruals, and benefits expenses. Deferred variable compensation expense, which is offset by noninterest income recorded from the performance of the company's variable bank owned life insurance policies, contributed further to the increase. Net occupancy expense increased $220,000, or 12.6%, from the company's continued expansion and reinvestment into its physical branch and operational infrastructure. Data processing fees and supplies increased $222,000, or 5.3%, from continued investment in customer-facing and operational technology solutions, including artificial intelligence capabilities. Additionally, corporate and business development expense increased $82,000, or 7.1%, professional fees increased $79,000, or 4.6%, and FDIC insurance and other regulatory fees increased $42,000, or 5.0%.

The Company's income tax expense increased $2.2 million, or 22.0%, to $12.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $10.1 million for the same period in 2025. The effective tax rate was 18.4% in the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 17.7% for the comparable period of 2025, driven by higher earnings and lower tax-exempt income. Income tax expense increased $304,000, or 5.1%, to $6.3 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $6.0 million for the second quarter of 2025. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 was 18.1%, compared to 18.1% for the prior year period.

Total Cash and Cash Equivalents

Total cash and cash equivalents increased by $52.8 million, or 37.4%, to $194.1 million at June 30, 2026, from $141.3 million at December 31, 2025. Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments. The fluctuation in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2026 was driven by an increase in cash and due from banks of $12.7 million, or 22.3%, and an increase in interest bearing short-term investment accounts of $40.1 million, or 47.6%, which were deposited primarily at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.

Investment Portfolio

The amortized cost and the fair value of securities as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows:

Total Investment Portfolio	$	1,310,067	$	1,154,596	$	1,328,525	$	1,169,572

At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than the U.S. government agencies and government sponsored entities, in an amount greater than 10% of stockholders’ equity. Management is aware that the directional change in the fair value of the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio is inversely related to the directional movement of the interest rate environment, with the resulting impact being reflected in the unrealized gain (loss) of the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio. Since the majority of the bonds in the investment portfolio are fixed-rate, with only a few adjustable-rate bonds, we expect our investment portfolio to follow this market value pattern. This is taken into consideration when evaluating the gain or loss of investment securities in the portfolio and the potential for an allowance for credit losses.

Table of Contents

Purchases of available-for-sale securities were $20.5 million in the first six months of 2026. Investment securities represented 16.1% of total assets on June 30, 2026, compared to 17.0% of total assets on December 31, 2025. The Company anticipates receiving principal and interest cash flows of approximately $51.9 million during the remainder of 2026 from the investment securities portfolio and plans to use that liquidity to fund loan growth as well as to fund reinvestments to the investment securities portfolio. Tax equivalent adjusted effective duration for the investment securities portfolio was 5.8 years at June 30, 2026 and 5.9 years at December 31, 2025. Paydowns from prepayments and scheduled payments of $38.1 million were received in the first six months of 2026, and the amortization of premiums, net of the accretion of discounts, was $1.8 million. There were no sales of available-for-sale investment securities in the first six months of 2026. No allowance for credit losses was recognized for available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The fair value of the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio as of June 30, 2026 included net unrealized losses of $140.9 million, compared to net unrealized losses of $143.3 million as of December 31, 2025. Unrealized losses in the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio are generally attributable to market value declines experienced during the rate tightening cycle of 2022 and 2023.

The investment portfolio is managed by a third-party firm to provide for an appropriate balance between liquidity, credit risk, interest rate risk management and investment return and to limit the Company’s exposure to credit risk in the investment securities portfolio. The Company does not trade or invest in or sponsor certain unregistered investment companies defined as hedge funds and private equity funds under what is commonly referred to as the “Volcker Rule” of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Real Estate Mortgage Loans Held-for-Sale

Real estate mortgage loans held-for-sale increased by $923,000, or 34.1%, to $3.6 million at June 30, 2026, from $2.7 million at December 31, 2025. The balance of this asset category is subject to a high degree of variability depending on, among other factors, recent mortgage loan rates and the timing of loan sales into the secondary market. The Company generally sells conforming qualifying mortgage loans it originates on the secondary market. Proceeds from sales of residential mortgages totaled $9.4 million in the first six months of 2026, compared to $8.7 million in the first six months of 2025. Management expects the volume of loans originated for sale in the secondary market to increase if long-term interest rates decline from current levels. Demand for mortgage loans has been impacted by elevated interest rates, limited housing inventory and existing home owners locked in at historically low rates. Mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The unpaid principal balances of loans serviced for others were $286.8 million and $294.5 million, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Loan Portfolio

The loan portfolio by portfolio segment as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is summarized as follows:


(dollars in thousands)	June 30, 2026				December 31, 2025				Current Period Change
Commercial and industrial loans	$	1,644,371	29.5	%	$	1,553,689	28.9	%	$	90,682

Net deferred loan fees	(2,580)				(2,508)				(72)
Loans, net	$	5,509,027			$	5,306,354			$	202,673

Total net loans, excluding real estate mortgage loans held-for-sale, increased by $202.7 million, or 3.8%, to $5.509 billion at June 30, 2026 from $5.306 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by originations of loans concentrated in the commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate and multi-family residential loans, other commercial loans, and consumer 1-4 family mortgage loans categories and was offset by paydowns in the agri-business and agricultural loans segment, which traditionally experiences seasonal fluctuations in activity.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the Company’s non-performing assets, excluding deferred fees and costs, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:


(dollars in thousands)	June 30, 2026			December 31, 2025
Nonaccrual loans	$	19,946		$	20,872
Loans past due over 90 days and still accruing	6			7
Total nonperforming loans	19,952			20,879
Other real estate owned	0			0
Repossessions	48			47
Total nonperforming assets	$	20,000		$	20,926

Individually analyzed loans	$	66,945		$	43,024

Nonperforming loans to total loans	0.36		%	0.39		%
Nonperforming assets to total assets	0.28		%	0.30		%

Total nonperforming assets decreased by $926,000, or 4.4%, from $20.9 million at December 31, 2025 to $20.0 million at June 30, 2026. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets declined to 0.28% at June 30, 2026, down from 0.30% as of December 31, 2025.

A loan is individually analyzed when full payment under the original loan terms is not expected. The analysis for smaller loans that are similar in nature and which are not in nonaccrual or modified status, such as residential mortgage, consumer, and credit card loans, is determined based on the class of loans. If a loan is individually analyzed, a portion of the allowance may be allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Total individually analyzed loans increased by $23.9 million, or 55.6%, to $66.9 million at June 30, 2026 from $43.0 million at December 31, 2025. The increase in individually analyzed loans during the first six months of 2026 was primarily driven by migration within the watchlist as three unrelated relationships with an aggregate balance of approximately $24.7 million were moved from the pooled watch list to individually analyzed status during the second quarter of 2026.

Loans are charged against the allowance for credit losses when management believes that the principal is uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb current expected credit losses relating to specifically identified loans based on an evaluation of the loans by management, as well as other current expected losses in the loan portfolio. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay. Management also considers trends in adversely classified loans based upon a monthly review of those credits. General allowance is determined after considering the following factors: application of loss percentages using a probability of default/loss given default approach subject to a floor, emerging market risk, commercial loan focus and large credit concentrations, new industry lending activity and current economic conditions. Federal regulations require insured institutions to classify their own assets on a regular basis. The regulations provide for three categories of classified loans: Substandard, Doubtful and Loss. The regulations also contain a Special Mention category. Special Mention applies to loans that do not currently expose an insured institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification as Substandard, Doubtful or Loss but do possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention. The Company’s policy is to evaluate for a specific allowance for credit losses for any assets where management has identified conditions or circumstances that indicate an asset is nonperforming. If an asset or portion thereof is classified as a loss, the Company’s policy is to either establish specified allowances for credit losses in the amount of 100% of the portion of the asset classified loss or charge-off such amount.

At June 30, 2026, the allowance for credit losses was 1.27% of total loans, a decrease of 1 basis point from 1.28% at December 31, 2025. At June 30, 2026, management believed the allowance for credit losses was at a level commensurate with the overall risk exposure of the loan portfolio. However, if economic conditions deteriorate, certain borrowers may experience difficulty and the level of nonperforming loans, charge-offs and delinquencies could rise and require increases in the allowance for credit losses. The process of identifying credit losses is a subjective process.

The Company has a relatively high percentage of commercial and commercial real estate loans, which are extended to businesses with a broad range of revenue and within a wide variety of industries. Traditionally, this type of lending may have more credit risk than other types of lending because of the size and diversity of the credits. The Company manages this risk by utilizing relatively conservative credit structures, by adjusting its pricing to the perceived risk of each individual credit and by diversifying the portfolio by customer, product, industry and market area. The Company has limited exposure to commercial office space borrowers, all of which are located in the Bank's Indiana markets. Loans totaling $104.9 million for this sector represented 1.9% of total loans at June 30, 2026. Additionally, commercial real estate loans secured by multi-family residential properties and secured by non-farm non-residential properties were approximately 222.8% of the Bank's risk-based capital at June 30, 2026. The Company continues to monitor the impact of tariffs on its borrowers.

As of June 30, 2026, based on management’s review of the loan portfolio, the Company had 107 credit relationships with principal balances totaling $198.0 million on the classified loan list versus 96 credit relationships with principal balances totaling $184.0 million on the classified loan list as of December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $135.3 million of assets classified as Special Mention, $62.7 million classified as Substandard, $43,000 classified as Doubtful and $0 classified as Loss as compared to $134.0 million, $50.0 million, $74,000 and $0, respectively, at December 31, 2025. The amounts by grade in "Note 4 - Allowance for Credit Losses and Credit Quality" are reported at amortized cost and include deferred fees and costs. Watch list loans as a percentage of total loans were 3.55% as of June 30, 2026, up 13 basis points from 3.42% at December 31, 2025.

Allowance estimates are developed by management after taking into account actual loss experience adjusted for current economic conditions and a reasonably supportable forecast period. The Company has annual discussions regarding this methodology with regulatory authorities. Allowance estimates are considered a prudent measurement of the risk in the Company’s loan portfolio based upon loan segment. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the allowance is based on information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amounts. For a more thorough discussion of the allowance for credit losses methodology see the "Critical Accounting Policies" section of this Item 2.

The allowance for credit losses increased $1.6 million, or 2.3%, from $69.0 million at December 31, 2025 to $70.6 million at June 30, 2026. The increase was primarily driven provision for credit losses of $3.7 million and offset by net charge offs of $2.1 million. Net charge offs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily driven by a $2.0 million charge off to one commercial credit during the first quarter of 2026. As the bulk of the Company’s lending activity is concentrated in the commercial loan portfolio, which can result in overall asset quality being influenced by a small number of credits, management has historically considered growth and portfolio composition when determining credit loss allocations.

Sources of Funds

The Company's sources of funds include a diversified deposit base gathered throughout the Company's footprint and includes a growing mix of commercial, retail and public funds deposit accounts. While the traditional base of core deposits represents the primary source of funding for the Company, the Company has access to a robust array of other liquidity sources, including secured borrowings available from the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window. In addition, the Company has access to unsecured borrowing capacity through long established relationships within the brokered deposit markets, Federal Funds lines from correspondent bank partners and Insured Cash Sweep (ICS) one-way buy funds available from the Intrafi network. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had access to $3.380 billion in unused liquidity available from these aggregate sources as compared to $3.526 billion at December 31, 2025.

Average total borrowings were $115.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $48.6 million, or 72.4%, from the comparable period in 2025. Total average deposit costs decreased 27 basis points from 2.55% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, to 2.28% for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Total average borrowing costs decreased 65 basis points from 4.57% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 3.92% for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

deposits in Indiana, were 24.2% of total deposits as of June 30, 2026, versus 26.0% as of December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 97.9% and 98.2% of deposit accounts had deposit balances less than $250,000, respectively.

Capital

As of June 30, 2026, total equity was $773.4 million, an increase of $10.9 million, or 1.4%, from $762.5 million at December 31, 2025. Driving the increase in total equity was an increase in retained earnings of $28.7 million, or 3.6%, primarily as a result of net income of $54.9 million less dividends declared and paid of $26.3 million. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) improved by $2.7 million and contributed further to the increase in total equity. Offsetting these items was an increase in treasury stock, which increased by $23.5 million, or 65.7%, driven by the Company's utilization of its share repurchase program. The combined effect of the repurchase activity under the share repurchase program and dividends paid during the first six months of 2026 represented a total return of capital to Company shareholders of $49.8 million.

The impact on equity for other comprehensive income (loss) is not included in regulatory capital. The banking regulators have established guidelines for leverage capital requirements, expressed in terms of Tier 1, or core capital, as a percentage of average assets, to measure the soundness of a financial institution. In addition, banking regulators have established risk-based capital guidelines for U.S. banking organizations. As of June 30, 2026, the Company's capital levels remained characterized as “well-capitalized”.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest rate risk represents the Company’s primary market risk exposure. The Company does not have a material exposure to foreign currency exchange risk, does not have a material amount of derivative financial instruments on a net basis and does not maintain a trading portfolio. The use of financial derivatives is limited to the back-to-back swap program for borrowers. The Corporate Risk Committee of the Board of Directors annually reviews and approves the policy used to manage interest rate risk. The policy was last reviewed and approved in July 2026. The policy sets guidelines for balance sheet structure, which are designed to protect the Company from the impact that interest rate changes could have on net income but do not necessarily indicate the effect on future net interest income. The Company, through the Bank's Asset and Liability Committee, manages interest rate risk by monitoring the computer simulated earnings impact of various rate scenarios and general market conditions. The Company then modifies its long-term risk parameters by attempting to generate the types of loans, investments, and deposits that currently fit the Company’s needs, as determined by the Asset and Liability Committee. This computer simulation analysis measures the net interest income impact of various interest rate scenario changes during the next twelve months. The Company continually evaluates the assumptions used in the model. The current balance sheet structure is considered to be within acceptable risk levels.

Interest rate scenarios for the base, falling 300 basis points, falling 200 basis points, falling 100 basis points, falling 50 basis points, falling 25 basis points, rising 25 basis points, rising 50 basis points, rising 100 basis points, rising 200 basis points and rising 300 basis points are listed below based upon the Company’s rate sensitive assets and liabilities at June 30, 2026. The net interest income shown represents cumulative net interest income over a twelve-month time horizon. Balance sheet assumptions used for the base scenario are the same for the rising and falling simulations.

The base scenario is an annual calculation that is highly dependent on numerous assumptions embedded in the model. While the base sensitivity analysis incorporates management’s best estimate of interest rate and balance sheet dynamics under various market rate movements, the actual behavior and resulting earnings impact will likely differ from that projected. For certain assets, the base simulation model captures the expected prepayment behavior under changing interest rate environments. Assumptions and methodologies regarding the interest rate or balance behavior of indeterminate maturity core deposit products, such as savings, money market, NOW and demand deposits reflect management’s best estimate of expected future behavior.
