Note 1 - Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Horizon Bancorp, Inc. (“Horizon” or the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Horizon Bank (“Horizon Bank” or the “Bank”). Horizon Bank (formerly known as “Horizon Bank, N.A.”) was a national association until its conversion to an Indiana commercial bank effective June 23, 2017. All inter–company balances and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year of 2021 or 2020. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of Horizon’s management, necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Horizon for the periods presented. Those adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in Horizon’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Horizon’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2021. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of Horizon as of December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited balance sheet as of that date.

On July 16, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a stock repurchase program for up to 2,250,000 shares of Horizon’s issued and outstanding common stock, no par value. As of June 30, 2021, Horizon had repurchased a total of 373,323 shares at an average price per share of $ 15.86 . In addition to the stock repurchase program, Horizon agreed to repurchase 1,000,000 shares at a price per share of $ 15.19 from an individual shareholder on March 6, 2020.

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (net income less dividend requirements for preferred stock and accretion of preferred stock discount) by the weighted–average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

The following table shows computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

There were 137,705 and 137,705 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, which were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were non–dilutive. There were 504,085 and 285,588 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, which were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were non–dilutive.

Horizon has share–based employee compensation plans, which are described in the notes to the financial statements included in the December 31, 2020 Annual Report on Form 10–K. Also, the Company's shareholders approved the 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan at its Annual Meeting on May 6, 2021, adding 1.4 million additional shares to the plan and with no other significant changes from the Company's previous plan.

Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Yet Adopted

FASB ASU No. 2020–04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting

The FASB has issued ASU 2020–04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting , which provides temporary, optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, the transition away from the LIBOR or other interbank offered rates on financial reporting. To help with the transition to new reference rates, the ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to affected contract modifications and hedge accounting relationships. The main provisions include:

• A change in a contract's reference interest rate would be accounted for as a continuation of that contract rather than as the creation of a new one for contracts, including loans, debt, leases, and other arrangements, that meet specific criteria.

• When updating its hedging strategies in response to reference rate reform, an entity would be allowed to preserve its hedge accounting.

The guidance is applicable only to contracts or hedge accounting relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. Because the guidance is meant to help entities through the transition period, it will be in effect for a limited time and will not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, for which an entity has elected certain optional expedients that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The amendments in this ASU are effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022.

ASU 2020–04 permits relief solely for reference rate reform actions and permits different elections over the effective date for legacy and new activity. Accordingly, the Company is evaluating and reassessing the elections on a quarterly basis. For current elections in effect regarding the assertion of the probability of forecasted transactions, the Company elects the expedient to assert the probability of the hedged interest payments and receipts regardless of any expected modification in terms related to reference rate reform.

The Company has been conducting monthly meetings to address contracts and hedge accounting relationships that reference LIBOR. All contracts referencing LIBOR as an interest rate have been identified and are in the process of being rewritten or refinanced by December 31, 2021, except for commercial loan interest rate swaps. Hedge accounting relationships referencing LIBOR will be modified by the counter parties. The Company believes the adoption of this guidance on activities subsequent to December 31, 2020 through December 31, 2022 will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Acquisitions

On May, 25, 2021, Horizon Bank entered into a definitive purchase and assumption agreement to acquire 14 TCF National Bank (“TCF”) branches in 11 Michigan counties with approximately $ 976 million in deposits and $ 278 million in associated loans, which are being divested by TCF Financial Corporation in connection with its merger with Huntington Bancshares Incorporated. The transaction, which is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2021, is subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions and adjustments.

No allowance for credit losses for available for sale debt securities or held to maturity securities was needed at June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020. Accrued interest receivable on available for sale debt securities and held to maturity securities totaled $ 10.3 million at June 30, 2021 and $ 8.1 million at December 31, 2020 and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

The U.S. government sponsored entities and 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.

Based on an evaluation of available evidence, management believes the unrealized losses on state and municipal securities were due to changes in interest rates. Due to the contractual terms, the issuers of state and municipal securities are not allowed to settle for less than the amortized cost of the security. In addition, the Company does not intend to sell these securities prior to the recovery of the amortized cost, which may not occur until maturity.

Information regarding security proceeds, gross gains and gross losses are presented below.

Note 4 – Loans

The table below identifies the Company’s loan portfolio segments and classes.


Portfolio Segment						Class of Financing Receivable
Commercial						Owner occupied real estate
						Non-owner occupied real estate
						Residential spec homes
						Development & spec land
						Commercial and industrial
Real estate						Residential mortgage
						Residential construction
Mortgage warehouse						Mortgage warehouse
Consumer						Direct installment
						Indirect installment
						Home equity

Portfolio segment is defined as a level at which an entity develops and documents a systematic methodology to determine its allowance for credit losses. Class of financing receivable is defined as a group of financing receivables determined on the basis of both of the following, 1) risk characteristics of the financing receivable, and 2) an entity’s method for monitoring and assessing credit risk. Generally, the Bank does not move loans from a revolving loan to a term loan other than construction loans. Construction loans are reviewed and rewritten prior to being originated as a term loan.

The following table presents total loans outstanding by portfolio class, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:


	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Federal Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans totaled approximately $ 169.4 million and $ 208.9 million, respectively, and are included with commercial loans. Total loans include net deferred loan fees of $ 3.2 million and $ 1.7 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The risk characteristics of each loan portfolio segment are as follows:

Commercial

Commercial loans are primarily based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and may incorporate a personal guarantee; however, some short–term loans may be made on an unsecured basis. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers.

Commercial real estate loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate. Commercial real estate lending typically involves larger loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans is generally dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. Commercial real estate loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets, the general economy or fluctuations in interest rates. The properties securing the Company's commercial real estate portfolio are diverse in terms of property type, and are monitored for concentrations of credit. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on collateral, cash flow and risk grade criteria. As a general rule, the Company avoids financing single purpose projects unless other underwriting factors are present to help mitigate risk. In addition, management tracks the level of owner–occupied commercial real estate loans versus non–owner occupied loans.

Real Estate and Consumer

With respect to residential loans that are secured by 1–4 family residences and are generally owner occupied, the Company generally establishes a maximum loan–to–value ratio and requires private mortgage insurance if that ratio is exceeded. Home equity loans are typically secured by a subordinate interest in 1–4 family residences, and consumer loans are secured by consumer assets such as automobiles or recreational vehicles. Some consumer loans are unsecured such as small installment loans and certain lines of credit. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment levels. Repayment can also be impacted by changes in property values on residential properties. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers.

Mortgage Warehousing

Horizon's mortgage warehouse lending has specific mortgage companies as customers of Horizon Bank. Individual mortgage loans originated by these mortgage companies are funded as a secured borrowing with a pledge of collateral under Horizon's agreement with the mortgage company. Each mortgage loan funded by Horizon undergoes an underwriting review by Horizon to the end investor guidelines and is assigned to Horizon until the loan is sold to the secondary market by the mortgage company. In addition, Horizon takes possession of each original note and forwards such note to the end investor once the mortgage company has sold the loan. At the time a loan is transferred to the secondary market, the mortgage company reacquires the loan under its option within the agreement. Due to the reacquire feature contained in the agreement, the transaction does not qualify as a sale and therefore is accounted for as a secured borrowing with a pledge of collateral pursuant to the agreement with the mortgage company. When the individual loan is sold to the end investor by the mortgage company, the proceeds from the sale of the loan are received by Horizon and used to pay off the loan balance with Horizon along with any accrued interest and any related fees. The remaining balance from the sale is forwarded to the mortgage company. These individual loans typically are sold by the mortgage company within 30 days and are seldom held more than 90 days. Interest income is accrued during this period and collected at the time each loan is sold. Fee income for each loan sold is collected when the loan is sold, and no costs are deferred due to the term between each loan funding and related payoff, which is typically less than 30 days.

Based on these agreements with each mortgage company, at any time a mortgage company can reacquire from Horizon its outstanding loan balance on an individual mortgage and regain possession of the original note. Horizon also has the option to request that the mortgage company reacquire an individual mortgage. Should this occur, Horizon would return the original note and reassign the assignment of the mortgage to the mortgage company. Also, in the event that the end investor would not be able to honor the purchase commitment and the mortgage company would not be able to reacquire its loan on an individual mortgage, Horizon would be able to exercise its rights under the agreement.

Non–performing Loans

The following table presents non–accrual loans, loans past due over 90 days still on accrual, and troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) by class of loans:

The entire balance of a loan is considered delinquent if the minimum payment contractually required to be made is not received by the specified due date.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Loans modified as TDRs generally consist of allowing borrowers to defer scheduled principal payments and make interest only payments for a specified period of time at the stated interest rate of the original loan agreement or lower payments due to a modification of the loans' contractual terms. TDRs that continue to accrue interest are individually monitored on a monthly basis and evaluated for impairment annually and transferred to non–accrual status when it is probable that any remaining principal and interest payments due on the loan will not be collected in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. TDRs that subsequently default are individually evaluated for impairment at the time of default.

At June 30, 2021, the types of concessions the Company has made on restructured loans have been temporary rate reductions and/or reductions in monthly payments, and there have been no restructured loans with modified recorded balances. Any modification to a loan that is a concession and is not in the normal course of lending is considered a restructured loan. A restructured loan is returned to accruing status after six consecutive payments but is still reported as a TDR unless the loan bears interest at a market rate. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $ 4.1 million in TDRs and $ 1.9 million were performing according to the restructured terms and $ 93,000 TDRs were returned to accrual status during 2021. There were no specific reserves allocated to TDRs at June 30, 2021 based on the discounted cash flows or, when appropriate, the fair value of the collateral. These TDRs are exclusive of loans modified under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”).

Loans Modified under the CARES Act

The Bank has elected (i) to suspend the requirements under GAAP for loan modifications related to the COVID–19 pandemic that would otherwise be categorized as a TDR; and (ii) to suspend any determination of a loan modified as a result of the effects of COVID–19 pandemic as being a TDR, including impairment for accounting purposes. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Bank modified loans totaling $ 52.5 million and $ 126.7 million, respectively, which qualify for treatment under the CARES Act.

Collateral Dependent Financial Assets

A collateral dependent financial loan relies solely on the operation or sale of the collateral for repayment. In evaluating the overall risk associated with the loan, the Company considers character, overall financial condition and resources, and payment record of the borrower; the prospects for support from any financially responsible guarantors; and the nature and degree of protection provided by the cash flow and value of any underlying collateral. However, as other sources of repayment become inadequate over time, the significance of the collateral's value increases and the loan may become collateral dependent.

Credit Quality Indicators

Horizon Bank's processes for determining credit quality differ slightly depending on whether a new loan or a renewed loan is being underwritten, or whether an existing loan is being re–evaluated for credit quality. The latter usually occurs upon receipt of current financial information or other pertinent data that would trigger a change in the loan grade.

• For new and renewed commercial loans, the Bank's Credit Department, which acts independently of the loan officer, assigns the credit quality grade of the loans. Loan grades for loans with an aggregate credit exposure that exceeds the authorities in the respective regions (ranging from $ 1,000,000 to $ 3,500,000 ) are validated by the Loan Committee, which is chaired by the Chief Commercial Banking Officer (“CCBO”).

• Commercial loan officers are responsible for reviewing their loan portfolios and reporting any adverse material change to the CCBO, Senior Commercial Credit Officer (“SCCO”) or Loan Committee. When circumstances warrant a change in the credit quality grade, loan officers are required to notify the CCBO, SCCO and the Credit Department of the change in the loan grade. Downgrades are accepted immediately by the CCBO or SCCO, however, lenders must present their factual information to either the Loan Committee, CCBO or SCCO when recommending an upgrade.

• The CCBO, or a designee, meets periodically with loan officers to discuss the status of past due loans and classified loans. These meetings are also designed to give the loan officers an opportunity to identify an existing loan that should be downgraded to a classified grade.

• Monthly, senior management meets as members of the Watch Committee, which reviews all of the past due, classified, and impaired loans and the relative trends of these assets. This committee also reviews the actions taken by management regarding foreclosure mitigation, loan extensions, troubled debt restructures, other real estate owned and personal property repossessions. The information reviewed in this meeting acts as a precursor for developing management's analysis of the adequacy of the Allowance for Credit Losses.

For residential real estate and consumer loans, Horizon uses a grading system based on delinquency. Loans that are 90 days or more past due, on non–accrual, or are classified as a TDR are graded “Substandard.” After being 90 to 120 days delinquent a loan is charged off unless it is well secured and in the process of collection. If the latter case exists, the loan is placed on non–accrual. Occasionally a mortgage loan may be graded as “Special Mention.” When this situation arises, it is because the characteristics of the loan and the borrower fit the definition of a Risk Grade 5 described below, which is normally used for grading commercial loans. Loans not graded Substandard are considered Pass.

Horizon Bank employs a nine–grade rating system to determine the credit quality of commercial loans. The first five grades represent acceptable quality, and the last four grades mirror the criticized and classified grades used by the bank regulatory agencies (special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss). The loan grade definitions are detailed below.

Risk Grade 1: Excellent (Pass)

Loans secured by liquid collateral, such as certificates of deposit, reputable bank letters of credit, or other cash equivalents or loans to any publicly held company with a current long–term debt rating of A or better and meeting defined key financial metric ranges.

Risk Grade 2: Good (Pass)

Loans to businesses that have strong financial statements containing an unmodified opinion from a CPA firm and at least three years consecutive years of profits; loans supported by unaudited financial statements containing strong balance sheets, five years consecutive years of profits, a five years satisfactory relationship with the Bank, and key balance sheet and income statement trends that are either stable or positive; loans secured by publicly traded marketable securities with required margins where there is no impediment to liquidation; loans to individuals backed by liquid personal assets and unblemished credit histories; or loans to publicly held companies with current long–term debt ratings of Baa or better and meeting defined key financial metric ranges.

Risk Grade 3: Satisfactory (Pass)

Loans supported by financial statements (audited or unaudited) that indicate average or slightly below average risk and having some deficiency or vulnerability to changing economic conditions; loans with some weakness but offsetting features of other support are readily available; loans that are meeting the terms of repayment, but which may be susceptible to deterioration if adverse factors are encountered and meeting defined key financial metric ranges. Loans may be graded Satisfactory when there is no recent information on which to base a current risk evaluation and the following conditions apply:

• At inception, the loan was properly underwritten, did not possess an unwanted level of credit risk, and the loan met the above criteria for a risk grade of Excellent, Good, or Satisfactory.

• At inception, the loan was secured with collateral possessing a loan value adequate to protect the Bank from loss.

• The loan has exhibited two or more years of satisfactory repayment with a reasonable reduction of the principal balance.

• During the period that the loan has been outstanding, there has been no evidence of any credit weakness. Some examples of weakness include slow payment, lack of cooperation by the borrower, breach of loan covenants, or the borrower is in an industry known to be experiencing problems. If any of these credit weaknesses is observed, a lower risk grade may be warranted.

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

Risk Grade 4: Satisfactory/Monitored (Pass)

Loans in this category are considered to be of acceptable credit quality, but contain greater credit risk than Satisfactory rated loans and meet defined key financial metric ranges. Borrower displays acceptable liquidity, leverage, and earnings performance within the Bank's minimum underwriting guidelines. The level of risk is acceptable but conditioned on the proper level of loan officer supervision. Loans that normally fall into this grade include acquisition, construction and development loans and income producing properties that have not reached stabilization.

Risk Grade 4W: Management Watch (Pass)

Loans in this category are considered to be of acceptable quality and meet defined key financial metric ranges, but with above normal risk. Borrower displays potential indicators of weakness in the primary source of repayment resulting in a higher reliance on secondary sources of repayment. Balance sheet may exhibit weak liquidity and/or high leverage. There is inconsistent earnings performance without the ability to sustain adverse economic conditions. Borrower may be operating in a declining industry or the property type, as for a commercial real estate loan, may be high risk or in decline. These loans require an increased level of loan officer supervision and monitoring to assure that any deterioration is addressed in a timely fashion. Commercial construction loans are graded as 4W Management Watch until the projects are completed and stabilized.

Risk Grade 5: Special Mention

Loans which possess some temporary (normally less than one year) credit deficiency or potential weakness which deserves close attention. Such loans pose an unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the loan by adversely impacting the future repayment ability of the borrower. The key distinctions of a Special Mention classification are that (1) it is indicative of an unwarranted level of risk and (2) weaknesses are considered “potential,” not “defined,“ impairments to the primary source of repayment. These loans may be to borrowers with adverse trends in financial performance, collateral value and/or marketability, or balance sheet strength and must meet defined key financial metric ranges.

Risk Grade 6: Substandard

One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified Substandard:

• Loans which possess a defined credit weakness. The likelihood that a loan will be paid from the primary source of repayment is uncertain. Financial deterioration is under way and very close attention is warranted to ensure that the loan is collected without loss.

• Loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor.

• The primary source of repayment is gone, and the Bank is forced to rely on a secondary source of repayment, such as collateral liquidation or guarantees.

• Loans have a distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.

• Unusual courses of action are need to maintain a high probability of repayment.

• The borrower is not generating enough cash flow to repay loan principal; however, it continues to make interest payments.

• The lender is forced into a subordinated or unsecured position due to flaws in documentation.

• Loans have been restructured so that payment schedules, terms, and collateral represent concessions to the borrower when compared to the normal loan terms.

• The lender is seriously contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to the apparent deterioration in the loan.

• There is a significant deterioration in market conditions to which the borrower is highly vulnerable.

• The borrower meets defined key financial metric ranges.

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

Risk Grade 7: Doubtful

One or more of the following characteristics may be present in loans classified Doubtful:

• Loans have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard; however, based on existing conditions, these weaknesses make full collection of principal highly improbable.

• The primary source of repayment is gone, and there is considerable doubt as to the quality of the secondary source of repayment.

• The possibility of loss is high but because of certain important pending factors which may strengthen the loan, loss classification is deferred until the exact status of repayment is known.

• The borrower meets defined key financial metric ranges.

Risk Grade 8: Loss

Loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuing to carry them as assets is not feasible. Loans will be classified Loss when it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off or reserving all of a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

The Company utilized the Cumulative Loss Rate method in determining expected future credit losses. The loss rate method measures the amount of loan charge–offs, net of recoveries, (“loan losses”) recognized over the life of a pool and compares those loan losses to the outstanding loan balance of that pool as of a specific point in time (“pool date”).

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

To estimate a CECL loss rate for the pool, management first identifies the loan losses recognized between the pool date and the reporting date for the pool and determines which loan losses were related to loans outstanding at the pool date. The loss rate method then divides the loan losses recognized on loans outstanding as of the pool date by the outstanding loan balance as of the pool date.

The Company’s expected loss estimate is anchored in historical credit loss experience, with an emphasis on all available portfolio data. The Company's historical look–back period includes January 2012 through the current period, on a monthly basis. When historical credit loss experience is not sufficient for a specific portfolio, the Company may supplement its own portfolio data with external models or data.

Qualitative reserves reflect management’s overall estimate of the extent to which current expected credit losses on collectively evaluated loans will differ from historical loss experience. The analysis takes into consideration other analytics performed within the organization, such as enterprise and concentration management, along with other credit–related analytics as deemed appropriate. Management attempts to quantify qualitative reserves whenever possible.

The Company’s CECL estimate applies to a forecast that incorporates macroeconomic trends and other environmental factors. Management utilized National, Regional and Local Leading Economic Indexes, as well as management judgment, as the basis for the forecast period. The historical loss rate was utilized as the base rate, and qualitative adjustments were utilized to reflect the forecast and other relevant factors.

The Company segments the loan portfolio into pools based on the following risk characteristics: financial asset type, loan purpose, collateral type, loan characteristics, credit characteristics, outstanding loan balances, contractual terms and prepayment assumptions, industry of the borrower and concentrations, and historical or expected credit loss patterns.

Note 6 – Loan Servicing

Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The unpaid principal balances of loans serviced for others totaled approximately $ 1.5 billion and $ 1.5 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The aggregate fair value of capitalized mortgage servicing rights was approximately $ 14.5 million and $ 12.5 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, compared to the carrying values of $ 14.5 million and $ 12.5 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Comparable market values and a valuation model that calculates the present value of future cash flows were used to estimate fair value. For purposes of measuring impairment, risk characteristics including product type, investor type and interest rates, were used to stratify the originated mortgage servicing rights.

The Bank reduced impairment by approximately $ 1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Bank recorded additional impairment of approximately $ 4.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Note 7 – Goodwill

The following table presents the Company’s carrying amount of goodwill as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Balance, end of period	$	151,238	$	151,238

In accordance with ASC 350–20, the Company conducts a goodwill impairment test at least annually, or more frequently as events occur or circumstances change that would more–likely–than–not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount. In the second quarter of 2020, the onset of the COVID–19 pandemic prompted the Company to assess qualitative and quantitative factors to determine whether it was more–likely–than–not the fair value of the Company was less than the carrying amount. The Company assessed relevant events and circumstances, including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance, changes in the composition or carrying amount of assets and liabilities, the market price of the Company’s common stock and other relevant facts. The Company performed both a market capitalization approach and a discounted cash flow approach to determine the fair value of the Company during the second quarter of 2020 which resulted in no goodwill impairment.

The Company updated their analysis above during the second quarter of 2021 which resulted in no goodwill impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Note 8 – Repurchase Agreements

The Company transfers various securities to customers in exchange for cash at the end of each business day and agrees to acquire the securities at the end of the next business day for the cash exchanged plus interest. The process is repeated at the end of each business day until the agreement is terminated. The securities underlying the agreement remained under the Company’s control.

Note 9 – Subordinated Notes

On June 24, 2020, Horizon issued $ 60.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.625 % fixed–to–floating rate subordinated notes (the “Notes”). The Notes were offered in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes mature on July 1, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”). From and including the date of original issuance to, but excluding, July 1, 2025 or the date of earlier redemption (the “fixed rate period”), the Notes bear interest at an initial rate of 5.625 % per annum, payable semi–annually in arrears on January 1 and July 1 of each year, commencing on January 1, 2021. The last interest payment date for the fixed rate period will be July 1, 2025. From and including July 1, 2025 to, but excluding, the Maturity Date or the date of earlier redemption (the “floating rate period”), the Notes bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the Benchmark rate (which is expected to be Three–Month Term SOFR), plus 549 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each year, commencing on October 1, 2025. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Benchmark rate is less than zero, the Benchmark rate shall be deemed to be zero.

Horizon may, at its option, beginning with the interest payment date of July 1, 2025 and on any interest payment date thereafter, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part. The Notes will not otherwise be redeemable by Horizon prior to maturity, unless certain events occur. The redemption price for any redemption is 100 % of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption. Any early redemption of the Notes will be subject to the receipt of the approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to the extent then required under applicable laws or regulations, including capital regulations.

The Notes are unsecured subordinated obligations, and rank pari passu, or equally, with all of Horizon's future unsecured subordinated debt and are junior to all existing and future senior debt. The Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of Horizon's subsidiaries, including the deposit liabilities and claims of other creditors of Horizon Bank, and are effectively subordinated to Horizon’s existing and future secured indebtedness. There is no sinking fund for the Notes. The Notes are obligations of Horizon only and are not obligations of, and are not guaranteed by, any of Horizon’s subsidiaries.

Note 10 – Derivative Financial Instruments

Cash Flow Hedges – As a strategy to maintain acceptable levels of exposure to the risk of changes in future cash flow due to interest rate fluctuations, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements for a portion of its floating rate debt. The agreements provide for the Company to receive interest from the counterparty at three months LIBOR and to pay interest to the counterparty at a fixed rate of 4.20 % on a notional amount of $ 12.0 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31,

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

2020, respectively. Under the agreements, the Company pays or receives the net interest amount monthly, with the monthly settlements included in interest expense.

The Company assumed additional interest rate swap agreements as the result of the LaPorte acquisition in July 2016. The agreements provide for the Company to receive interest from the counterparty at one month LIBOR and to pay interest to the counterparty at a fixed rate of 2.62 % on a notional amount of $ 10.0 million at December 31, 2020. Under the agreements, the Company pays or receives the net interest amount monthly, with the monthly settlements included in interest expense.

On July 20, 2018, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement for an additional portion of its floating rate debt. The agreement provides for the Company to receive interest from the counterparty at one month LIBOR and to pay interest to the counterparty at a fixed rate of 2.81 % on a notional amount of $ 50.0 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Under the agreement, the Company pays or receives the net interest amount monthly, with the monthly settlements included in interest expense.

Management has designated the interest rate swap agreement as a cash flow hedging instrument. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. At June 30, 2021, the Company’s cash flow hedge was effective and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s net income over the next 12 months.

Fair Value Hedges – Fair value hedges are intended to reduce the interest rate risk associated with the underlying hedged item. The Company enters into fixed rate loan agreements as part of its lending policy. To mitigate the risk of changes in fair value based on fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements on individual loans, converting the fixed rate loans to a variable rate. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings. At June 30, 2021, the Company’s fair value hedges were effective and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s net income over the next 12 months.

The change in fair value of both the hedge instruments and the underlying loan agreements are recorded as gains or losses in interest income. The fair value hedges are considered to be highly effective and any hedge ineffectiveness was deemed not material. The notional amounts of the loan and security agreements being hedged were $ 459.6 million at June 30, 2021 and $ 442.7 million at December 31, 2020.

Other Derivative Instruments – The Company enters into non–hedging derivatives in the form of mortgage loan forward sale commitments with investors and commitments to originate mortgage loans as part of its mortgage banking business. At June 30, 2021, the Company’s fair value of these derivatives were recorded and over the next 12 months are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s net income.

The change in fair value of both the forward sale commitments and commitments to originate mortgage loans were recorded and the net gains or losses included in the Company’s gain on sale of loans.

Note 11 – Disclosures about Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Fair Value Measurements topic of the FASB ASC defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 – 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 for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the period ended June 30, 2021. For assets classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value is described below.

Available for sale securities

When quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities, state and municipal securities, federal agency collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage–backed pools and corporate notes. Level 2 securities are valued by a third party pricing service commonly used in the banking industry utilizing observable inputs. Observable inputs include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flow analysis, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment spreads and available credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions. The pricing provider utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary based on asset class. These models incorporate available market information including quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and, because many fixed–income securities do not trade on a daily basis, apply available information through processes such as benchmark

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector grouping, and matrix pricing. In addition, model processes, such as an option adjusted spread model, is used to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios for securities with prepayment features.

Hedged loans

Certain fixed rate loans have been converted to variable rate loans by entering into interest rate swap agreements. The fair value of those fixed rate loans is based on discounting the estimated cash flows using interest rates determined by the respective interest rate swap agreement. Loans are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy based on the unobservable inputs used.

Interest rate swap agreements

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements is estimated by a third party using inputs that are primarily unobservable including a yield curve, adjusted for liquidity and credit risk, contracted terms and discounted cash flow analysis, and therefore, are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the FASB ASC fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at the following:

Collateral Dependent Loans: For loans identified as collateral dependent, then the fair value method of measuring the amount of impairment is utilized. This method requires obtaining a current independent appraisal of the collateral and applying a discount factor to the value.

Collateral dependent loans are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy when impairment is determined using the fair value method.

Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs): MSRs do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, the fair value of these assets is classified as Level 3. The Company determines the fair value of MSRs using an income approach model based upon the Company’s month–end interest rate curve and prepayment assumptions. The model utilizes assumptions to estimate future net servicing income cash flows, including estimates of time decay, payoffs and changes in valuation inputs and assumptions. The Company reviews the valuation assumptions against this market data for reasonableness and adjusts the assumptions if deemed appropriate. The carrying amount of the MSRs’ fair value due to impairment increased by $ 1.8 million during the first six months of 2021 and decreased by $ 3.2 million during the first six months of 2020.

Note 12 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value amounts of the Company’s financial instruments were determined using available market information, current pricing information applicable to Horizon and various valuation methodologies. Where market quotations were not available, considerable management judgment was involved in the determination of estimated fair values. Therefore, the estimated fair value of financial instruments shown below may not be representative of the amounts at which they could be exchanged in a current or future transaction. Due to the inherent uncertainties of expected cash flows of financial instruments, the use of alternate valuation assumptions and methods could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

The estimated fair values of financial instruments, as shown below, are not intended to reflect the estimated liquidation or market value of Horizon taken as a whole. The disclosed fair value estimates are limited to Horizon’s significant financial instruments at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. These include financial instruments recognized as assets and liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as well as certain off–balance sheet financial instruments. The estimated fair values shown below do not include any valuation of assets and liabilities, which are not financial instruments as defined by the FASB ASC fair value hierarchy.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Cash and Due from Banks – The carrying amounts approximate fair value.

Interest-earning time deposits – The fair values of the Company’s interest–earning time deposits are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on current rates for similar types of interest–earning time deposits.

Held–to–Maturity Securities – For debt securities held to maturity, fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. For those securities where a quoted market price is not available, carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value based upon comparison with similar securities.

Loans Held for Sale – The carrying amounts approximate fair value.

Net Loans – The fair value of net loans are estimated on an exit price basis incorporating discounts for credit, liquidity and marketability factors.

FHLB Stock – Fair value of FHLB stock is based on the price at which it may be resold to the FHLB.

Interest Receivable/Payable – The carrying amounts approximate fair value.

Deposits – The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, interest–bearing checking accounts and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturity.

Borrowings – Rates currently available to Horizon for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair values of existing borrowings.

Subordinated Notes – The fair value of subordinated notes is based on discounted cash flows based on current borrowing rates for similar types of instruments.

Junior Subordinated Debentures Issued to Capital Trusts – Rates currently available for debentures with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair values of existing debentures.

Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit – The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed–rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. Due to the short–term nature of these agreements, carrying amounts approximate fair value.

Note 14 – Regulatory Capital

Horizon and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. These capital requirements implement changes arising from the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the U.S. Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital framework (known as “Basel III”). Failure to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators, which if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective actions, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines involving quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off–balance–sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

The Company and Bank are subject to minimum regulatory capital requirements as defined and calculated in accordance with the Basel III–based regulations. As allowed under Basel III rules, the Company made the decision to opt–out of including accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. The minimum regulatory capital requirements are set forth in the table below.

In addition, to be categorized as well capitalized, the Company and Bank must maintain Total risk–based, Tier I risk–based, common equity Tier I risk–based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company and Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to be considered well capitalized. There have been no conditions or events since the end of the second quarter of 2021 that management believes have changed the Bank’s classification as well capitalized. There is no threshold for well capitalized status for bank holding companies.

In October 2019, the federal banking agencies finalized a new rule that will simplify capital requirements for qualified community banks that opt into the new community bank leverage ratio framework. The new framework was available to use in March 31, 2020 Call Reports or Forms FRY-9C (as applicable) for depository institutions and depository institution holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, among other qualifying criteria. Horizon did not elect the new community bank leverage ratio framework.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company and Bank elected the transition option of the 2019 CECL Rule which allows banking organizations to phase in over a three–year period the day–one adverse effects of CECL on their regulatory capital ratios.

Second Quarter 2021 Highlights

• Net income grew to a record $22.2 million, up 8.6% from the linked quarter and 51.5% from the year–ago period. Diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $0.50 includes the $0.01 after–tax impact of expenses associated with Horizon’s agreement to acquire 14 TCF National Bank branches, approximately $976 million in deposits and approximately $278 million in loans in a financially and strategically attractive extension of Horizon’s low–cost deposit franchise in Michigan, announced in the quarter. EPS was $0.46 for the first quarter of 2021 and $0.33 for the second quarter of 2020.

• Pre–tax, pre–provision net income grew to a second–quarter record $24.5 million, up 0.9% from the linked quarter and 3.2% from the year–ago period. This non–GAAP financial measure is utilized by banks to provide a greater understanding of pre–tax profitability before giving effect to credit loss expense. (See the “Non–GAAP Reconciliation of Pre–Tax, Pre–Provision Income” table below.)

• Net interest income was $42.6 million for the quarter, compared to $42.5 million for the first quarter of 2021 and $43.0 million for the second quarter of 2020. Reported net interest margin (“NIM”) was 3.14% and adjusted NIM was 3.13%, with reported NIM declining by 15 basis points and adjusted NIM decreasing by four basis points from the first quarter of 2021. (See the “Non–GAAP Reconciliation of Net Interest Margin” table for the definition of this non–GAAP calculation of adjusted NIM.) An estimated seven basis points attributed to Federal Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) lending improved the margin, offset by an estimated 21 basis point compression attributed to excess liquidity held during the quarter, for both NIM and adjusted NIM.

• Horizon’s in–market consumer and commercial deposit relationships, combined with strategic pricing moves to manage deposit growth and runoff of higher–priced time deposits, contributed to continued improvement in the cost of interest bearing liabilities, which declined to 0.45% in the quarter, compared to 0.50% in the first quarter of 2021 and 0.74% in the second quarter of 2020.

• Non–interest expense was $33.4 million in the quarter, or 2.18% of average assets on an annualized basis, compared to $32.2 million, or 2.20%, in the first quarter of 2021 and $30.4 million, or 2.18%, in the second quarter of 2020.

• The efficiency ratio for the period was 57.73% compared to 57.03% for the first quarter of 2021 and 56.23% for the second quarter of 2020. The adjusted efficiency ratio was 57.45% compared to 57.97% for the first quarter of 2021 and 56.49% for the second quarter of 2020. (See the “Non-GAAP Calculation and Reconciliation of Efficiency Ratio and Adjusted Efficiency Ratio” table below.)

• Horizon experienced an increased return on average assets (“ROAA”) of 1.45% and return on average common equity (“ROACE”) of 12.59% in the quarter, as well as adjusted ROAA of 1.46% and adjusted ROACE of 12.61%, excluding the impact of acquisition expenses and prepayment penalties, net of tax, and death benefits on bank owned life insurance. (See the “Non–GAAP Reconciliation of Return on Average Assets” and the “Non–GAAP Reconciliation of Return on Average Common Equity” tables below.)

• Horizon recorded a provision release of $1.5 million and maintained solid asset quality metrics at period end, including non–performing loans declining 10.9% during the quarter to $22.3 million, or 0.63% of total loans, substandard loans declining 4.6% to $82.5 million, or 2.3% of total loans, net charge–offs declining 81.3% to $39,000, or 0.00% of average loans for the period, and COVID–19 deferrals declining 42.7% to $52.5 million, or 1.5% of total loans.

• Total non–interest income grew to $15.2 million, up 9.6% from the linked quarter and 36.7% from the year–ago period, due to favorable impact of mortgage production, bank owned life insurance, banking fees and fiduciary activities. Following record residential lending in 2020, mortgage–related non–interest income remained strong in the second three months of 2021, with gain on mortgage loan sales of $5.6 million and net mortgage servicing income of $1.5 million. The Horizon Bank (the “Bank”) originated $173.0 million in mortgage loans during the quarter, with 61% of volume from purchases, as Horizon continued to focus residential lending on prime borrowers in Indiana and Michigan markets.

• Loans, excluding PPP lending, totaled $3.36 billion on June 30, 2021, were lower reflecting cash reserves maintained by many current and prospective commercial borrowers and retail households through the quarter. Loans, excluding PPP lending, totaled $3.42 billion on March 31, 2021 and $3.69 billion on June 30, 2020.

• Horizon’s book value per share and tangible book value per share increased to all–time highs of $16.16 and $12.24, respectively. (See the “Non–GAAP Reconciliation of Tangible Stockholders’ Equity and Tangible Book Value per Share” table below.)

• As part of the Company's annual branch performance review and a third–party analysis of the Bank's retail network, Horizon's Board of Directors approved the permanent closure of nine Indiana branch locations and one in Michigan to occur on August 27, 2021. Access to Horizon branch that provides the same products and services will be in close proximity of the consolidated branch in addition to alternative delivery channels are available, including online banking and mobile banking. Any impairment to fixed assets is not estimated to be material.

• Horizon increased cash dividends paid in the quarter by 8.3% to $0.13 per share, as previously announced. As of June 30, 2021, in excess of $129 million in cash was maintained at the holding company, providing considerable future optionality to build shareholder value.

Critical Accounting Policies

The notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for 2020 contain a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies. Certain of these 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. Management has identified as critical accounting policies the allowance for credit losses, goodwill and intangible assets, mortgage servicing rights, hedge accounting and valuation measurements.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses represents management’s best estimate of current expected credit losses over the life of the portfolio of loan and leases. Estimating credit losses requires judgment in determining loan specific attributes impacting the borrower’s ability to repay contractual obligations. Other factors such as economic forecasts used to determine a reasonable and supportable forecast, prepayment assumptions, the value of underlying collateral, and changes in size composition and risks within the portfolio are also considered.

The allowance for credit losses is assessed at each balance sheet date and adjustments are recorded in the provision for credit losses. The allowance is estimated based on loan level characteristics using historical loss rates, a reasonable and supportable economic forecast. Loan losses are estimated using the fair value of collateral for collateral–dependent loans, or when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty such that repayment of the loan is expected to be made through the operation or sale of the collateral. Loan balances considered uncollectible are charged–off against the ACL. Recoveries of amounts previously charged–off are credited to the ACL. Assets purchased with credit deterioration (“PCD”) assets represent assets that are acquired with evidence of more than insignificant credit quality deterioration since origination at the acquisition date. At acquisition, the allowance for credit losses on PCD assets is booked directly the ACL. Any subsequent changes in the ACL on PCD assets is recorded through the provision for credit losses. Management believes that the ACL is adequate to absorb the expected life of loan credit losses on the portfolio of loans and leases as of the balance sheet date. Actual losses incurred may differ materially from our estimates. Particularly, the impact of COVID–19 on both borrower credit and the greater macroeconomic environment is uncertain and changes in the duration, spread and severity of the virus will affect our loss experience.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Management believes that the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets also involves a higher degree of judgment than most other significant accounting policies. FASB ASC 350–10 establishes standards for the amortization of acquired intangible assets and impairment assessment of goodwill. At June 30, 2021, Horizon had core deposit intangibles of $21.2 million subject to amortization and $151.2 million of goodwill, which is not subject to amortization. Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in the business acquired. Horizon’s goodwill relates to the value inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of Horizon to provide quality, cost effective banking services in a competitive marketplace. The goodwill value is supported by revenue that is in part driven by the volume of business transacted. A decrease in earnings resulting from a decline in the customer base or the inability to deliver cost effective services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely affect earnings in future periods. FASB ASC 350–10 requires an annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment.

And Results of Operations

For the Three and Six Months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

At each reporting date between annual goodwill impairment tests, Horizon considers potential indicators of impairment. Given the current economic uncertainty and volatility surrounding COVID–19, Horizon assessed whether the events and circumstances resulted in it being more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit was less than its carrying value. Impairment indicators considered comprised the condition of the economy and banking industry; government intervention and regulatory updates; the impact of recent events to financial performance and cost factors of the reporting unit; performance of the Company's stock and other relevant events. Horizon further considered the amount by which fair value exceeded book value in the most recent quantitative analysis and stress testing performed. At the conclusion of the most recent qualitative assessment, the Company determined that as of June 30, 2021, it was more likely than not that the fair value exceeded its carrying values. Horizon will continue to monitor developments regarding the COVID–19 pandemic and measures implemented in response to the pandemic, market capitalization, overall economic conditions and any other triggering events or circumstances that may indicate an impairment of goodwill in the future.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when rights are acquired through purchase or through the sale of financial assets on a servicing–retained basis. Capitalized servicing rights are amortized into non–interest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets. Servicing assets are evaluated regularly for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Impairment is determined by stratifying servicing rights by predominant characteristics, such as interest rates, original loan terms and whether the loans are fixed or adjustable rate mortgages. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market–based assumptions. When the book value of an individual stratum exceeds its fair value, an impairment reserve is recognized so that each individual stratum is carried at the lower of its amortized book value or fair value. In periods of falling market interest rates, accelerated loan prepayment can adversely affect the fair value of these mortgage–servicing rights relative to their book value. In the event that the fair value of these assets was to increase in the future, Horizon can recognize the increased fair value to the extent of the impairment allowance but cannot recognize an asset in excess of its amortized book value. Future changes in management’s assessment of the impairment of these servicing assets, as a result of changes in observable market data relating to market interest rates, loan prepayment speeds, and other factors, could impact Horizon’s financial condition and results of operations either positively or negatively.

Generally, when market interest rates decline and other factors favorable to prepayments occur, there is a corresponding increase in prepayments as customers refinance existing mortgages under more favorable interest rate terms. When a mortgage loan is prepaid, the anticipated cash flows associated with servicing that loan are terminated, resulting in a reduction of the fair value of the capitalized mortgage servicing rights. To the extent that actual borrower prepayments do not react as anticipated by the prepayment model (i.e., the historical data observed in the model does not correspond to actual market activity), it is possible that the prepayment model could fail to accurately predict mortgage prepayments and could result in significant earnings volatility. To estimate prepayment speeds, Horizon utilizes a third-party prepayment model, which is based upon statistically derived data linked to certain key principal indicators involving historical borrower prepayment activity associated with mortgage loans in the secondary market, current market interest rates and other factors, including Horizon’s own historical prepayment experience. For purposes of model valuation, estimates are made for each product type within the mortgage servicing rights portfolio on a monthly basis. In addition, on a quarterly basis Horizon engages a third party to independently test the value of its servicing asset.

Derivative Instruments

As part of the Company’s asset/liability management program, Horizon utilizes, from time–to–time, interest rate floors, caps or swaps to reduce the Company’s sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations. These are derivative instruments, which are recorded as assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Changes in the fair values of derivatives are reported in the consolidated income statements or other comprehensive income (“OCI”) depending on the use of the derivative and whether the instrument qualifies for hedge accounting. The key criterion for the hedge accounting is that the hedged relationship must be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in those cash flows that are attributable to the hedged risk, both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis.

Horizon’s accounting policies related to derivatives reflect the guidance in FASB ASC 815–10. Derivatives that qualify for the hedge accounting treatment are designated as either: a hedge of the fair value of the recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment (a fair value hedge) or a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (a cash flow hedge). For fair value hedges, the cumulative

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

And Results of Operations

For the Three and Six Months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

change in fair value of both the hedge instruments and the underlying loans is recorded in non–interest income. For cash flow hedges, changes in the fair values of the derivative instruments are reported in OCI to the extent the hedge is effective. The gains and losses on derivative instruments that are reported in OCI are reflected in the consolidated income statement in the periods in which the results of operations are impacted by the variability of the cash flows of the hedged item. Generally, net interest income is increased or decreased by amounts receivable or payable with respect to the derivatives, which qualify for hedge accounting. At inception of the hedge, Horizon establishes the method it uses for assessing the effectiveness of the hedging derivative and the measurement approach for determining the ineffective aspect of the hedge. The ineffective portion of the hedge, if any, is recognized currently in the consolidated statements of income. Horizon excludes the time value expiration of the hedge when measuring ineffectiveness.

Valuation Measurements

Valuation methodologies often involve a significant degree of judgment, particularly when there are no observable active markets for the items being valued. Investment securities, residential mortgage loans held for sale and derivatives are carried at fair value, as defined in FASB ASC 820, which requires key judgments affecting how fair value for such assets and liabilities is determined. In addition, the outcomes of valuations have a direct bearing on the carrying amounts of goodwill, mortgage servicing rights, and pension and other post–retirement benefit obligations. To determine the values of these assets and liabilities, as well as the extent, to which related assets may be impaired, management makes assumptions and estimates related to discount rates, asset returns, prepayment speeds and other factors. The use of different discount rates or other valuation assumptions could produce significantly different results, which could affect Horizon’s results of operations.

Financial Condition

On June 30, 2021, Horizon’s total assets were $6.1 billion, an increase of approximately $222.6 million compared to December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily in investment securities available for sale of $557.2 million and cash and due from banks of $54.5 million. These increases were offset by a decrease in net loans of $346.5 million, investments held to maturity of $15.4 million and other assets of $13.9 million.

Investment securities were comprised of the following as of (dollars in thousands):

Total deposits increased $250.5 million since December 31, 2020 to $4.8 billion as of June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily due to Federal stimulus payments to consumers and funds from the origination of PPP loans.

Total borrowings decreased from $475.0 million as of December 31, 2020 to $439.1 million as of June 30, 2021. At June 30, 2021, the Company had $178.5 million in short-term funds borrowed compared to $315.5 million at December 31, 2020. During the second quarter of 2021, the Bank paid–off $50.0 million in long–term Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis advances which resulted in a prepayment penalty of $125,000.

Stockholders’ equity totaled $710.4 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $692.2 million at December 31, 2020. The increase in stockholders’ equity during the period was due to the generation of net income, offset by dividends paid and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income during the period. Book value per common share at June 30, 2021 increased to $16.16 compared to $15.78 at December 31, 2020.

Overview

Consolidated net income for the three–month period ended June 30, 2021 was $22.2 million, or $0.50 diluted earnings per share, compared to $14.6 million, or $0.33 diluted earnings per share for the same period in 2020. The increase in net income for the three–month period ended June 30, 2021 when compared to the same prior year period reflects an increase in non–interest income of $4.1 million and a decrease in credit loss expense of $8.5 million, offset by an increase in non–interest expense of $3.0 million, an increase in income tax expense of $1.8 million and a decrease in net interest income of $364,000. Excluding acquisition expenses, gain on sale of investment securities, death benefit on bank owned life insurance and prepayment penalties on borrowings (“adjusted net income”), adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2021 was $22.2 million, or $0.50 diluted earnings per share, compared to $14.4 million, or $0.32 diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2020.

Consolidated net income for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021 was $42.6 million, or $0.97 diluted earnings per share, compared to $26.3 million, or $0.59 diluted earnings per share for the same period in 2020. The increase in net income for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021 when compared to the same prior year period reflects an increase in non–interest income of $5.9 million, an increase in net interest income of $1.2 million and a decrease in credit loss expense of $16.8 million, offset by increases in non–interest expense of $4.0 million and income tax expense of $3.6 million. Excluding acquisition expenses, gain on sale of investment securities, death benefits on bank owned life insurance and prepayment penalties on borrowings (“adjusted net income”), adjusted net income for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021 was $41.9 million, or $0.95 diluted earnings per share, compared to $25.6 million, or $0.57 diluted earnings per share for the six–month period ended June 30, 2020.

Net Interest Income

The largest component of net income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, principally from loans and investment securities, and interest expense, principally on deposits and borrowings. Changes in the net interest income are the result of changes in volume and the net interest spread, which affects the net interest margin. Volume refers to the average dollar levels of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Net interest spread refers to the difference between the average yield on interest earning assets and the average cost of interest bearing liabilities. Net interest margin refers to net interest income divided by average interest earning assets and is influenced by the level and relative mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.

Net interest income during the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $42.6 million, a decrease of $364,000 from the $43.0 million earned during the same period in 2020. Yields on the Company’s interest earning assets decreased by 57 basis points to 3.48% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from 4.05% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Interest income decreased $2.9 million from $50.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $47.4 million for the same

period in 2021. The decrease in interest income was due to a decrease in yield as interest earning assets reprice during the current low rate environment. Interest income from acquisition–related purchase accounting adjustments was $230,000 for the three months ending June 30, 2021 compared to $1.6 million for the same period of 2020.

Rates paid on interest bearing liabilities decreased by 29 basis points for the three–month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. Interest expense decreased $2.6 million when compared to the three–month period ended June 30, 2020 to $4.8 million for the same period in 2021. This decrease was due to lower rates paid on deposits and borrowings. The cost of average interest bearing deposits decreased 33 basis points while the cost of average borrowings decreased 20 basis points. Average balances of interest bearing deposits increased $381.1 million and average balances of borrowings decreased $164.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020.

The net interest margin decreased 33 basis points from 3.47% for the three–month period ended June 30, 2020 to 3.14% for the same period in 2021. The decrease in the margin for the three–month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was due to a decrease in the yield on interest earning assets, offset by a decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities. Excluding the interest income recognized from the acquisition–related purchase accounting adjustments and prepayment penalties on borrowings (“adjusted net interest margin”), the margin would have been 3.13% for the three-month period ending June 30, 2021 compared to 3.35% for the same period in 2020.

The net interest margin was impacted due to PPP lending and high level of cash held during the second quarter of 2021. Horizon estimates that the PPP loans increased the net interest margin by seven basis points for the second quarter of 2021. This assumes these PPP loans were not included in average interest earning assets or interest income and were primarily funded by the growth in non–interest bearing deposits. In addition, Horizon estimates that the high level of cash held on the balance sheet compressed the net interest margin by 21 basis points for the second quarter of 2021. This assumes that the high level of cash was not included in average interest earning assets or interest income and was excluded from non–interest bearing deposits.

Interest income decreased $7.0 million from $102.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $95.0 million for the same period in 2021. Average interest earning assets during the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $620.7 million to $5.6 billion compared to $4.9 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Interest income from acquisition–related purchase accounting adjustments was $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $3.0 million for the same period of 2020.

Rates paid on interest bearing liabilities decreased 46 basis points for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. Interest expense decreased $8.2 million when compared to the six–month period ended June 30, 2020 to $9.8 million for the same period in 2021. This decrease was due to lower rates paid on deposits and borrowings. The cost of average interest bearing deposits decreased 50 basis points while the cost of average borrowings decreased 40 basis points. Average balances of interest bearing deposits increased $340.4 million and average balances of borrowings decreased $110.2 million for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020.

The net interest margin decreased 30 basis points from 3.51% for the six–month period ended June 30, 2020 to 3.21% for the same period in 2021. The decrease in the margin for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was due to a decrease in the yield of interest earning assets, offset by a decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities. Excluding the interest income recognized from the acquisition–related purchase accounting adjustments and prepayment penalties on borrowings (“adjusted net interest margin”), the margin would have been 3.15% for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to 3.39% for the same period in 2020.

Credit Loss Expense

Horizon assesses the adequacy of its Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) by regularly reviewing the performance of its loan portfolio. During the three–month period ended June 30, 2021, a provision reversal of $1.5 million was required to reflect the nature of our loan portfolios and general characteristics of certain loan pools compared to a provision expense of $7.1 million for the same period of 2020. During the three–month period ended June 30, 2021, commercial loan net charge–offs were $46,000, residential mortgage loan net recoveries were $23,000 and consumer loan net charge–offs were $22,000.

During the six–month period ended June 30, 2021, a provision reversal of $1.1 million was required to reflect the nature of our loan portfolios and general characteristics of certain loan pools compared to a provision expense of $15.7 million for the same period of 2020. During the six–month period ended June 30, 2021, commercial loan net charge–offs were $204,000, residential mortgage loan net recoveries were $88,000 and consumer net charge–offs were $137,000.

The ACL balance at June 30, 2021 was $55.6 million, or 1.58% of total loans compared to an ACL balance of $57.0 million at December 31, 2020 or 1.47% of total loans. The increase in the ACL to total loans ratio was primarily due to a decrease in loans from December 31, 2020, including a decrease in PPP loans of $39.4 million which do not require a related ACL balance.

As of June 30, 2021, non–performing loans totaled $22.3 million, which reflects a 6 basis point decrease in non–performing loans to total loans, or a $4.5 million decrease from $26.8 million in non–performing loans as of December 31, 2020. Non–performing commercial loans decreased by $4.0 million, non–performing real estate loans decreased by $153,000 and non–performing consumer loans decreased by $329,000 at June 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020.

The Bank has elected (i) to suspend the requirements under GAAP for loan modifications related to the COVID–19 pandemic that would otherwise be categorized as a TDR; and (ii) to suspend any determination of a loan modified as a result of the effects of COVID–19 pandemic as being a TDR, including impairment for accounting purposes. At June 30, 2021, the Bank modified loans totaling $52.5 million which qualify for treatment under the CARES Act. The following is a summary of loan modifications related to the COVID–19 pandemic by type of loan.

Total non–interest income was $4.1 million higher during the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period of 2020. Residential mortgage loan activity during the second quarter of 2021 generated $5.6 million of income from the gain on sale of mortgage loans, down from $6.6 million for the same period in 2020 due to a lower volume of loans sold, offset by an increase in the percentage gain on loans sold. Mortgage servicing rights, net of impairment, increased $4.3 million during the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period of 2020 primarily due to the reversal of $1.6 million in impairment charges during the second quarter of 2021. Interchange fees, service charges on deposit accounts and death benefit on bank owned life insurance increased $565,000, $269,000, $266,000, respectively, when comparing the second quarter of 2021 to the same period of 2020.

Total non–interest expense was $3.0 million higher for the second quarter of 2021 when compared to the second quarter of 2020. Increases in salaries and employee benefits, outside services and consultants, loan expense and FDIC insurance expense were offset in part by decreases in other losses and net occupancy expenses. Salaries and benefits expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 did not include accruals related to annual bonus payments, while a normalized level of annual bonus accruals were recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Excluding acquisition expenses, total non–interest expense increased by $2.7 million in the second quarter when compared to the same period in 2020.

Annualized non–interest expense as a percent of average assets was 2.18% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Annualized non–interest expense, excluding acquisition expenses, as a percent of average assets was 2.16% and 2.18% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Total non–interest expense was $4.0 million higher for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020. Increases in salaries and employee benefits, loan expenses and FDIC insurance expense were offset in part by a decrease in other expense. Salaries and benefits expense for the six–month period ended June 30, 2020 did not include accruals related to annual bonus payments, while a normalized level of annual bonus accruals were recorded for the six–month period ended June 30, 2021.

Liquidity

The Bank maintains a stable base of core deposits provided by long–standing relationships with individuals and local businesses. These deposits are the principal source of liquidity for Horizon. Other sources of liquidity for Horizon include earnings, loan repayment, investment security sales and maturities, proceeds from the sale of residential mortgage loans,

unpledged investment securities and borrowing relationships with correspondent banks, including the FHLB. At June 30, 2021, in addition to liquidity available from the normal operating, funding, and investing activities of Horizon, the Bank had approximately $890.6 million in unused credit lines with various money center banks, including the FHLB and the FRB Discount Window compared to $1.04 billion at December 31, 2020. The Bank had approximately $1.2 billion of unpledged investment securities at June 30, 2021 compared to $632.4 million at December 31, 2020.

Capital Resources

The capital resources of Horizon and the Bank exceeded regulatory capital ratios for “well capitalized” banks at June 30, 2021. Stockholders’ equity totaled $710.4 million as of June 30, 2021, compared to $692.2 million as of December 31, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the ratio of average stockholders’ equity to average assets was 11.62% compared to 11.82% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. The increase in stockholders’ equity during the period was the result of net income recorded during the period offset in part by a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income and dividends declared.

Horizon paid common stock dividends in the amount of $0.25 per share during the first six months of 2021 and $0.24 per share for the same period of 2020. The dividend payout ratio (dividends as a percent of basic earnings per share) was 25.8% and 40.7% for the first six months of 2021 and 2020, respectively. For additional information regarding dividends, see Horizon’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2020.

Use of Non–GAAP Financial Measures

Certain information set forth in this quarterly report on Form 10–Q refers to financial measures determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, we have included non–GAAP financial measures relating to net income, diluted earnings per share, net interest margin, the allowance for credit losses, tangible stockholders’ equity, tangible book value per share, the return on average assets, the return on average common equity, and pre–tax pre–provision net income. In each case, we have identified special circumstances that we consider to be adjustments and have excluded them, to show the impact of such events as acquisition–related purchase accounting adjustments, among others we have identified in our reconciliations. Horizon believes that these non–GAAP financial measures are helpful to investors and provide a greater understanding of our business without giving effect to the purchase accounting impacts and other adjustments. These measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measure. See the tables and other information below and contained elsewhere in this Report on Form 10–Q for reconciliations of the non–GAAP figures identified herein and their most comparable GAAP measures.
