Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

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

The Company owns all of the outstanding common stock of MidWest One Bank, an Iowa state non-member bank chartered in 1934 with its main office in Iowa City, Iowa. The Company previously owned all of the common stock of MidWest One Insurance Services, Inc., Oskaloosa, Iowa, until that entity dissolved in December 2019. We operate primarily through MidWest One Bank, our bank subsidiary.

On May 1, 2019, the Company acquired ATBancorp, a bank holding company whose wholly-owned banking subsidiaries were ATSB and ABTW, community banks headquartered in Dubuque, Iowa, and Cuba City, Wisconsin, respectively. As consideration for the merger, we issued 4,117,536 shares of our common stock with a value of $ 116 million, and paid cash in the amount of $ 34.8 million.

On June 30, 2019, the Company sold substantially all of the assets used by its wholly owned subsidiary, MidWest One Insurance Services, Inc. to sell insurance products. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $ 1.1 million from the sale, which was reported in “Other” noninterest income on the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements are omitted. In the opinion of management, all significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated and adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals and considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim periods, have been included. The current period's results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that ultimately may be achieved for the year. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020.

Risks and Uncertainties

The outbreak of COVID-19 has adversely impacted a broad range of industries in which the Company’s customers operate and could impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company. The World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic, indicating that almost all public commerce and related business activities must be, to varying degrees, curtailed with the goal of decreasing the rate of new infections. The spread of the outbreak has caused significant disruptions in the U.S. economy and has disrupted banking and other financial activity in the areas in which the Company operates. While there has been no material impact to the Company’s employees to date, COVID-19 could also potentially create widespread business continuity issues for the Company.

Congress, the President, and the FRB have taken several actions designed to cushion the economic fallout. Most notably, the CARES Act was signed into law at the end of March 2020 as a $2 trillion legislative package. The goal of the CARES Act was to prevent a severe economic downturn through various measures, including direct financial aid to American families and economic stimulus to significantly impacted industry sectors. The package also includes extensive emergency funding for hospitals and healthcare providers. In addition to the general impact of COVID-19, certain provisions of the CARES Act as well as other recent legislative and regulatory relief efforts are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s operations.

The Company’s business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its employees and customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. If the global response to contain COVID-19 escalates further or is unsuccessful, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. While it is not possible to know the full universe or extent that the impact of COVID-19, and resulting measures to curtail its spread, will have on the Company’s operations, the Company discloses in this report potentially material items of which it is aware at the time this report is filed with the SEC.

Table of Contents

Financial position and results of operations

The Company’s interest income could be reduced due to COVID-19. In accordance with CARES Act provisions and regulatory guidance, the Company is actively working with COVID-19 affected borrowers to defer their payments, interest, and fees. While interest and fees will still accrue to income, through normal GAAP accounting, should eventual credit losses on these deferred payments emerge, interest income and fees accrued would need to be reversed. In such a scenario, interest income in future periods could be negatively impacted. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact of COVID-19 may affect its borrowers’ ability to repay in future periods.

The Company’s fee income could be reduced due to COVID-19. In keeping with guidance from regulators, the Company continues to actively work with COVID-19 affected customers. During the second and third quarters of 2020, we waived fees from a variety of sources, such as, but not limited to, insufficient funds and overdraft fees, ATM fees, account maintenance fees, etc. These reductions in fees are thought, at this time, to be temporary in conjunction with the length of the expected COVID-19 related economic crisis. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact of COVID-19 is likely to impact its fee income in future periods.

Capital and liquidity

While the Company believes that it has sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by COVID-19, its reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by further credit losses. On July 28, 2020, the Company completed the private placement of $ 65.0 million of its subordinated notes. The 5.75 % fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes are due July 30, 2030. For regulatory capital purposes, the subordinated notes have been structured to qualify initially as Tier 2 Capital for the Company. The Company relies on cash on hand as well as dividends from its subsidiary bank to service its debt. If the Company’s capital deteriorates such that its subsidiary bank is unable to pay dividends to it for an extended period of time, the Company may not be able to service its debt. If an extended recession causes large numbers of the Company’s deposit customers to withdraw their funds, the Company might become more reliant on volatile or more expensive sources of funding.

Asset valuation

Currently, the Company does not expect COVID-19 to affect its ability to account timely for the assets on its balance sheet; however, this could change in future periods. While certain valuation assumptions and judgments will change to account for pandemic-related circumstances such as widening credit spreads, the Company does not anticipate significant changes in methodology used to determine the fair value of assets measured in accordance with GAAP.

It is possible that the lingering effects of COVID-19 could cause the occurrence of what management would deem to be subsequent triggering events that could, under certain circumstances, cause us to perform a goodwill or intangible asset impairment test and result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period. In the event that the Company concludes that all or a portion of its goodwill or intangible assets are impaired, a non-cash charge for the amount of such impairment would be recorded to earnings. Such a charge would have no impact on tangible capital or regulatory capital, cash flows or liquidity position.

In the third quarter 2020, due to the continued economic impact that COVID-19 has had on the Company, management concluded that factors, such as the decline in macroeconomic conditions and a sustained decrease in share price, have led to the occurrence of a triggering event and therefore an interim impairment test over goodwill was performed as of September 30, 2020. Based upon the interim impairment assessment, we concluded that a portion of our goodwill was impaired as our estimated fair value was less than our book value on this date. The Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $ 31.5 million, which was reflected within "Noninterest expense" in the Consolidated Statements of Income. See Note 6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional information.

Processes, controls and business continuity plan

The Company maintains a Business Continuity Plan, which was enacted upon the World Health Organization declaration of COVID-19 to be a global pandemic. Shortly after enacting the plan, the Company deployed a successful remote working strategy. The Company also implemented a number of other safety protocols, as well as initiated strategies for monitoring and responding to COVID-19 in our market areas, including customer relief efforts. As of September 30, 2020, the majority of our employees have returned to work in our branch offices with no disruption to our operations. To date, no material operational or internal control challenges or risks have been identified. We have also not incurred additional material cost related to our remote working strategy to date, nor do we anticipate incurring material cost in future periods. Further, as of September 30, 2020 the Company also does not anticipate significant challenges in its ability to maintain its systems and controls in light of the measures the Company has taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The Company does not currently face any material resource constraint through the implementation of its business continuity plans.

Table of Contents

Credit

The Company is working with customers directly affected by COVID-19. The Company has offered and continues to offer short-term assistance in accordance with regulatory guidelines. As a result of the current economic environment caused by the COVID-19 virus, the Company is engaging in more frequent communication with borrowers to better understand their situation and the challenges faced, allowing it to respond proactively as needs and issues arise. Should economic conditions worsen, the Company could experience further increases in its required ACL and record additional credit loss expense. It is possible that the Company’s asset quality measures could worsen at future measurement periods if the effects of COVID-19 are prolonged.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect: (1) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (2) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and (3) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information available to management at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 may not be indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2020, or for any other period.

All significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the quarterly financial statements are disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020.

Segment Reporting

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

Allowance for Credit Losses

Debt Securities Available for Sale

For available for sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company evaluates the securities to determine whether the decline in the fair value below the amortized cost basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance for credit losses related to debt securities AFS on the balance sheet, limited to the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding adjustment to earnings. Both the ACL and the adjustment to net income may be reversed if conditions change. However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired available for sale debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount must be recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. Because the security’s amortized cost basis is adjusted to fair value, there is no ACL in this situation.

In evaluating available for sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions for impairment and the criteria regarding its intent or requirement to sell such securities, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuers’ financial condition, among other factors.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as credit loss expense (or reversal of credit loss expense). Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes the uncollectability of an available for sale debt security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Loans Held for Investment

Under the current expected credit loss model, the allowance for credit losses is a valuation account estimated at each balance sheet date and deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans held for investment to present the net amount expected to be collected.

The Company estimates the ACL based on the underlying assets’ amortized cost basis, which is the amount at which the financing receivable is originated or acquired, adjusted for collection of cash and charge-offs, as well as applicable accretion or amortization of premium, discount, and net deferred fees or costs. In the event that collection of principal becomes uncertain,

Table of Contents

the Company has policies in place to reverse accrued interest in a timely manner. Therefore, the Company has made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from the measurement of ACL.

Expected credit losses are reflected in the allowance for credit losses through a charge to credit loss expense. When the Company deems all or a portion of a financial asset to be uncollectible, the appropriate amount is written off and the ACL is reduced by the same amount. The Company applies judgment to determine when a financial asset is deemed uncollectible; however, generally speaking, an asset will be considered uncollectible no later than when all efforts at collection have been exhausted. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the ACL when received.

The Company measures expected credit losses of financial assets on a collective (pool) basis when the financial assets share similar risk characteristics. Depending on the nature of the pool of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, the Company uses a DCF method or a loss-rate method to estimate expected credit losses.

The Company’s methodologies for estimating the ACL consider available relevant information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The methodologies apply historical loss information, adjusted for asset-specific characteristics, economic conditions at the measurement date, and forecasts about future economic conditions expected to exist through the contractual lives of the financial assets that are reasonable and supportable, to the identified pools of financial assets with similar risk characteristics for which the historical loss experience was observed. The Company’s methodologies revert back to historical loss driver information on a straight-line basis over four quarters when it can no longer develop reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company adjusted in the first quarter of 2020 the reversion period from the previously disclosed six quarters to four quarters based upon current forecasted conditions.

Discounted Cash Flow Method

The Company uses the DCF method to estimate expected credit losses for the agricultural, commercial and industrial, CRE - construction and development, CRE - farmland, CRE - multifamily, CRE - other, RRE - owner-occupied one-to-four family first liens, RRE - nonowner-occupied one-to-four family first liens, RRE - one-to-four family junior liens, and consumer loan pools. For each of these pools, the Company generates cash flow projections at the instrument level wherein payment expectations are adjusted for estimated prepayment speed, curtailments, time to recovery, probability of default, and loss given default. The modeling of expected prepayment speeds, curtailment rates, and time to recovery are based on historical internal data.

The Company uses regression analysis of historical internal and peer data to determine which variables are best suited to be economic variables utilized when modeling lifetime probability of default and loss given default. This analysis also determines how expected probability of default and loss given default will react to forecasted levels of the economic variables. For the loan pools utilizing the DCF method, management utilizes one or multiple of the following economic variables: Midwest unemployment, national retail sales, CRE index, US rental vacancy rate, US gross domestic product, and national home price index (HPI).

For all DCF models, management has determined that four quarters represents a reasonable and supportable forecast period and reverts back to a historical loss rate over four quarters on a straight-line basis. Management leverages economic projections from a reputable and independent third party to inform its loss driver forecasts over the four quarter forecast period. Other internal and external indicators of economic forecasts are also considered by management when developing the forecast metrics.

The combination of adjustments for credit expectations (default and loss) and timing expectations (prepayment, curtailment, and time to recovery) produces an expected cash flow stream at the instrument level. Instrument effective yield is calculated, net of the impacts of prepayment assumptions, and the instrument expected cash flows are then discounted at that effective yield to produce an instrument-level net present value of expected cash flows (“NPV”). An ACL is established for the difference between the instrument’s NPV and amortized cost basis. In addition, management utilizes qualitative factors to adjust the calculated ACL as appropriate. Qualitative factors are based on management's judgment of company, market, industry or business specific data, changes in underlying loan composition of specific portfolios, trends relating to credit quality, delinquency, non-performing and adversely rated loans, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions.

Loss-Rate Method

The Company uses a loss-rate method to estimate expected credit losses for the credit card and overdraft pools. For each of these pools, the Company applies an expected loss ratio based on internal and peer historical losses, adjusted as appropriate for qualitative factors. Qualitative loss factors are based on management's judgment of company, market, industry or business

Table of Contents

specific data, changes in underlying loan composition of specific portfolios, trends relating to credit quality, delinquency, non-performing and adversely rated loans, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions.

Collateral Dependent Financial Assets

Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. For collateral dependent financial assets where the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the asset as of the measurement date. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the present value of expected cash flows from the operation of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized costs basis of the financial asset exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated cost to sell. The ACL may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the financial asset.

The Company’s estimate of the ACL reflects losses expected over the remaining contractual life of the assets. The contractual term does not consider extensions, renewals or modifications unless the Company has identified an expected TDR.

A loan that has been modified or renewed is considered a TDR when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made for the borrower's benefit that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower or transaction with similar credit risk characteristics. The Company’s ACL reflects all effects of a TDR when an individual asset is specifically identified as a reasonably expected TDR. The Company has determined that a TDR is reasonably expected no later than the point when the lender concludes that modification is the best course of action and it is at least reasonably possible that the troubled borrower will accept some form of concession from the lender to avoid a default. Reasonably expected TDRs and executed non-performing TDRs are evaluated individually to determine the required ACL. TDRs performing in accordance with their modified contractual terms for a reasonable period of time may be included in the Company’s existing pools based on the underlying risk characteristics of the loan to measure the ACL.

Guidance on Non-TDR Loan Modifications due to COVID-19

Section 4013 of the CARES Act, “Temporary Relief From Troubled Debt Restructurings,” allows financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under Section 4013 of the CARES Act, loan modifications that qualify for such suspension are those where the borrower was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. In addition, the loan modification being made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic must include a deferral or delay in the payment of principal or interest, or change in the interest rate on the loan. In March 2020, various regulatory agencies, including the FRB and the FDIC, issued an interagency statement, effective immediately, on loan modifications and reporting for financial institutions working with customers affected by COVID-19. The agencies confirmed with the staff of the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not to be considered TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented.

Liability for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Losses

Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit losses, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for off-balance sheet loan commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

The Company recognizes a liability for off-balance sheet credit losses, unless the commitments to extend credit are unconditionally cancellable, through a charge to credit loss expense for off-balance sheet credit losses included in credit loss expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The liability for off-balance sheet credit losses is estimated by loan segment at each balance sheet date under the current expected credit loss model using the same methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur, and is included in other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

2. Effect of New Financial Accounting Standards

Accounting Guidance Adopted in 2020

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables. It is also applied to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842 on leases. In addition, ASC 326 made changes to the accounting for AFS debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on AFS debt securities that management does not intend to sell or believes that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell.

The Company adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. The Company recorded a net decrease to retained earnings of $ 5.4 million as of January 1, 2020 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASC 326. The transition adjustment includes a $ 4.0 million impact due to the increase in ACL related to loans, a $ 3.4 million impact due the establishment of the allowance for unfunded commitments, and a $ 1.9 million impact on deferred taxes.

The Company adopted ASC 326 using the prospective transition approach for financial assets purchased with credit deterioration that were previously classified as PCI and accounted for under ASC 310-30. In accordance with the standard, management did not reassess whether PCI assets met the criteria of PCD assets as of the date of adoption. On January 1, 2020, the amortized cost basis of the PCD assets were adjusted to reflect the addition of $ 119 thousand to the ACL. The remaining noncredit discount will be accreted into interest income at the effective interest rate as of January 1, 2020.

The following table illustrates the impact of ASC 326 on the allowance for credit losses on loans and the liability for off-balance sheet credit exposures:

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in this update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, including the consideration of costs and benefits. Four disclosure requirements were removed, three were modified, and two were added. In addition, the amendments eliminate “ at a minimum” from the phrase “ an entity shall disclose at a minimum” to promote the appropriate exercise of discretion by entities when considering fair value measurement disclosures and to clarify that materiality is an appropriate consideration of entities and their auditors when evaluating disclosure requirements. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Loans with unpaid principal in the amount of $ 858.1 million and $ 945.9 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, were pledged to the FHLB as collateral for borrowings.

Non-accrual and Delinquent Status

Loans are placed on non-accrual when (1) payment in full of principal and interest is no longer expected or (2) principal or interest has been in default for 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured with marketable collateral and in the process of collection. All loans rated doubtful or worse, and certain loans rated substandard, are placed on non-accrual.

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

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

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers who have a nonaccrual loan.

Credit Quality Information

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

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

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

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

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

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

Allowance for Credit Losses

At September 30, 2020, the economic forecast used by the Company showed a decline in Midwest unemployment over the next four forecasted quarters; increases in national retail sales over the next three forecasted quarters, with a decline in the fourth quarter; decreases in the CRE index over the next two forecasted quarters, with improvements beginning in the third quarter; increases in U.S. GDP over the next three forecasted quarters, with a decline in the fourth quarter; decreases in the national home price index over the next three forecasted quarters, with improvements beginning in the fourth quarter; and a decline in the U.S. rental vacancy rate through the second forecasted quarter, with an improvement in the third forecasted quarter, and then a decline beginning in the fourth forecasted quarter. These loss drivers saw improvements when compared to the prior quarter, however are consistently worse when compared to recent historical trends over the past several years, largely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We have made a policy election to report interest receivable as a separate line on the balance sheet. Accrued interest receivable, which is recorded within 'Other Assets' totaled $ 14.8 million at September 30, 2020 and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Modifications in response to COVID-19:

The Company began offering short-term loan modifications to assist borrowers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act along with a joint interagency statement issued by the federal banking agencies provides that short-term modifications made in response to COVID-19 do not need to be accounted for as a TDR. Accordingly, the Company does not account for such loan modifications as TDRs. The Company's loan modifications allow for the initial deferral of three months of principal and / or interest. The deferred interest is due and payable at the end of the deferral period and the deferred principal is due and payable on the maturity date. At September 30, 2020, we had granted short-term payment deferrals on $ 115.3 million of loans. The program is ongoing and additional loans continue to be granted deferrals.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

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

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

Cash Flow Hedges - Derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges in order to minimize the variability in cash flows of earning assets or forecasted transactions caused by movement in interest rates. In February 2020, the Company entered into a pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swap with a notional amount of $ 30.0 million to hedge against adverse fluctuations in interest rates by reducing exposure to variability in cash flows relating to interest payments on the Company's variable rate debt.

Table of Contents

The interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge. The gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. During 2020, the Company estimates that an additional $ 358 thousand will be reclassified to interest expense.

The table below presents the effect of cash flow hedge accounting on AOCI for three months and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Interest Rate Swaps - The Company has also entered into interest rate swap contracts. The derivative contracts related to transactions in which the Company enters into an interest rate swap with a customer, while simultaneously entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with an institutional counterparty.

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

The following table presents the net gains (losses) recognized on the consolidated statements of income related to the derivatives not designated as hedging instruments for the periods indicated:

Offsetting of Derivatives

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

The following table below presents gross derivatives and the respective collateral received or pledged in the form of other financial instruments as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, which are generally marketable securities and/or cash. The collateral amounts in the table below are limited to the outstanding balances of the related asset or liability (after netting is applied); thus instances of over-collateralization are not shown. Further, the net amounts of derivative assets or liabilities can be reconciled to the tabular disclosure of fair value. The tabular disclosure of fair value provides the location that derivative assets and liabilities are presented on the consolidated balance sheets.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

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

As of September 30, 2020, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $ 17.7 million.

6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for as acquisitions. Under ASC Topic 350, goodwill of a reporting unit is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company's annual assessment is done at the reporting unit level, which the Company has concluded is at the consolidated level. Due to the continued economic impact that COVID-19 has had on the Company, management concluded that factors, such as the decline in macroeconomic conditions and a sustained decrease in share price, have led to the occurrence of a triggering event and therefore an interim impairment test over goodwill was performed as of September 30, 2020.

The Company performed a market capitalization approach, a guideline public company approach and a discounted cash flow approach, to determine the fair value of the Company. As a result of this interim assessment, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $ 31.5 million as its estimated fair value was less than its book value on that date. This non-cash charge was reflected within "Noninterest expense" in the Consolidated Statements of Income and had no impact on the Company's regulatory capital ratios, cash flows and liquidity position.

The following table presents the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the period indicated:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2020
Goodwill, beginning of period	$	91,918

13. Regulatory Capital Requirements and Restrictions on Subsidiary Cash

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The capital amounts and classification also are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

(1) Includes a capital conservation buffer of 2.50 %.

As of December 31, 2019, the Bank was required to maintain reserve balances in cash on hand or on deposit with Federal Reserve Banks, of which these reserve amounts totaled $ 24.1 million. There was no such requirement to maintain such reserve balances as of September 30, 2020, and therefore the total amount held in reserve was zero dollars.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

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

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


	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
(in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit	$	893,147	$	859,212
Commitments to sell loans	13,096		5,400
Standby letters of credit	25,864		36,192
Total	$	932,107	$	900,804

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

Table of Contents

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

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

Liability for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Losses : The Company records a liability for off-balance sheet credit losses through a charge to credit loss expense (or a reversal of credit loss expense) on the Company's consolidated statements of income and other liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2020, the liability for off-balance-sheet credit losses totaled $ 4.5 million, whereas the total amount recorded within credit loss expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $ 1.1 million. No liability was recorded in the prior year.

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

Concentrations of credit risk : Substantially all of the Bank’s loans, commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit have been granted to customers in the Bank’s market areas. Although the loan portfolio of the Bank is diversified, approximately 63 % of the loans are real estate loans and approximately 8 % are agriculturally related. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in Note 4. Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses . Commitments to extend credit are primarily related to commercial loans and home equity loans. Standby letters of credit were granted primarily to commercial borrowers. Investments in securities issued by state and political subdivisions involve certain governmental entities within Iowa and Minnesota. The carrying value of investment securities of Iowa and Minnesota political subdivisions totaled 26 % and 18 %, respectively, as of September 30, 2020.

15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

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

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

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

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

For information regarding the valuation methodologies used to measure the Company's assets recorded at fair value (under ASC Topic 820), and for estimating fair value for financial instruments not recorded at fair value (under ASC Topic 825, as amended by ASU 2016-01 and ASU 2018-03), see Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies and Note 20. Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020.

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

16. Leases

A lease is defined as a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company adopted FASB Topic 842 on January 1, 2019.

Substantially all of the leases in which the Company is the lessee are comprised of real estate property for branches and office space with terms extending through 2025. We do not have any subleased properties. Substantially all of our leases are classified as operating leases, and therefore, were previously not recognized on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company has one existing finance lease (previously referred to as a capital lease) for a branch location with a lease term through 2025.

Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases was as follows:


(in thousands)	Classification	September 30, 2020			December 31, 2019
Lease Right-of-Use Assets
Operating lease right-of-use assets	Other assets	$	3,860		$	4,499
Finance lease right-of-use asset	Premises and equipment, net	573			637
Total right-of-use assets		$	4,433		$	5,136

Lease Liabilities
Operating lease liability	Other liabilities	$	4,830		$	5,430
Finance lease liability	Long-term debt	1,130			1,225
Total lease liabilities		$	5,960		$	6,655

Weighted-average remaining lease term
Operating leases		8.78 years			8.90 years
Finance lease		5.92 years			6.67 years
Weighted-average discount rate
Operating leases		3.87		%	3.78		%
Finance lease		8.89		%	8.89		%

The calculated amount of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the table above are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Company’s lease agreements often include one or more options to renew at the Company’s discretion. If at lease inception, the Company considers the exercising of a renewal option to be reasonably certain, the Company will include the extended term in the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability. Regarding the discount rate, Topic 842 requires the use of the rate implicit in the lease whenever this rate is readily determinable. As this rate is rarely determinable, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate at lease inception, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term. For operating leases existing prior to January 1, 2019, the rate for the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019 was used. For finance leases, the Company utilizes the rate implicit in the lease.

Table of Contents

The following table represents lease costs and other lease information. As the Company elected, for all classes of underlying assets, not to separate lease and non-lease components and instead to account for them as a single lease component, the variable lease cost primarily represents variable payments such as common area maintenance and utilities.

17. Subsequent Events

On October 20, 2020, the board of directors of the Company authorized resuming repurchases under the Company's share repurchase program. The Company previously announced the temporary suspension of its share repurchase program in light of market conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

On October 28, 2020, the board of directors of the Company declared a cash dividend of $ 0.22 per share payable on December 15, 2020 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 1, 2020.

Effective October 28, 2020, the Company plans to consolidate its branch office in Newport, Minnesota into its nearby branch office in South St. Paul, Minnesota. This branch consolidation is part of the Company's strategy to improve operating efficiency. The Company estimates the branch consolidation will reduce its annual operating expenses by approximately $ 360 thousand.

The Company has evaluated events that have occurred subsequent to September 30, 2020 and has concluded there are no other subsequent events that would require recognition in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of such term in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We and our representatives may, from time to time, make written or oral statements that are “forward-looking” and provide information other than historical information. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from any results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. These factors include, among other things, the factors listed below. Forward-looking statements, which may be based upon beliefs, expectations and assumptions of our management and on information currently available to management, are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “plans,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “may” or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Additionally, we undertake no obligation to update any statement in light of new information or future events, except as required under federal securities law.

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

• the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its effects on the economic environment, our customers, and our operations, as well as any changes to federal, state, or local government laws, regulations, or orders in connection with the pandemic;

• government intervention in the U.S. financial system in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the effects of recent legislative, tax, accounting and regulatory actions and reforms including the CARES Act;

• the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial results, including possible lost revenue and increased expenses (including the cost of capital), as well as possible goodwill impairment charges;

• credit quality deterioration or pronounced and sustained reduction in real estate market values could cause an increase in our allowance for credit losses and a reduction in net earnings;

• the effects of interest rates, including on our net income and the value of our securities portfolio;

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

• fluctuations in the value of our investment securities;

• governmental monetary and fiscal policies;

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

• legislative and regulatory changes, including changes in banking, securities, consumer protection, trade and tax laws and regulations and their application by our regulators;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

• volatility of rate-sensitive deposits;

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

• asset/liability matching risks and liquidity risks;

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

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

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

• war or terrorist activities, widespread disease or pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, or other adverse external events, which may cause deterioration in the economy or cause instability in credit markets;

• the effects of cyber-attacks;

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

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

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

OVERVIEW

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

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

Our results of operations depend primarily on our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income on our interest-earning assets, such as loans and securities held for investment, and the interest expense paid on our deposits and borrowings. Results of operations are also affected by noninterest income and expense, credit loss expense and income tax expense. Significant external factors that impact our results of operations include general economic and competitive conditions, as well as changes in market interest rates, government policies, and actions of regulatory authorities.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes and the statistical information and financial data appearing in this report as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020. Results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results to be attained for any other period.

COVID-19 Update

The COVID-19 pandemic in the United States has had an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and is expected to have a complex and significant adverse impact on the economy, the banking industry and the Company in future fiscal periods, all subject to a high degree of uncertainty.

Effects on Our Market Areas .

COVID-19 Response in our Markets: Our commercial and consumer banking products and services are offered primarily in Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Florida and Colorado, where individual and governmental responses to the COVID-19 pandemic led to a broad curtailment of economic activity beginning in March 2020. More recently, we've seen in our markets a variety of responses to the COVID-19 pandemic as the economy continues to re-open, which have included social distancing protocols, limitations of social gathering sizes, safety practices for the at-risk and elderly, as well as other safeguarding practices.

• Iowa: On October 16, 2020, the Governor issued an order that is effective unless otherwise modified until November 15, 2020 that includes social distancing requirements, in addition to encouraging all vulnerable Iowans, including those with pre-existing medical conditions and the elderly, to continue to limit their activities outside of their home.

• Minnesota: On October 12, 2020, the Governor extended the protocols enacted in prior orders, which included social distancing protocols, limitations of social gatherings, requirement for face coverings in certain settings, in addition to other similar requirements, and is effective through November 12, 2020.

• Wisconsin: On October 6, 2020 the Governor issued a proclamation that limited the size of public gatherings, which is in effect until November 6, 2020. In addition, an order from September 22, 2020 contained provisions for the requirement of face coverings when outside the home, with other social distancing protocols still in effect.

• Florida: On September 25, 2020, the Governor of Florida issued an executive order that contains certain provisions as part of Phase 3 of the plan to re-open, which included the removal of certain restrictions that were previously imposed on residents' ability to work and operate a business and restaurant capacity, among other provisions. Any prior social distancing protocols or requirements as part of Phase 2 remain in effect, unless otherwise modified.

• Colorado: On October 21, 2020, the Governor issued various orders that both amended and extended prior orders that were issued that contained social distancing protocols for the state. In addition, prior orders from the month of October 2020 also imposed additional restrictions such as the requirement to wear face coverings in certain settings, among

other social distancing requirements that are similar to those of other states. On October 27, 2020, the Mayor of Denver placed additional capacity restrictions on locations such as, but not limited to, restaurants, churches, and retail centers as part of the shift from the Safer at Home: Level 2 to the more restrictive Safer at Home: Level 3. In addition, this recent mandate also contained limitations for schools, gathering at indoor and outdoor events, among other social distancing protocols.

The Bank's branches have remained open during these orders because the Bank is deemed to be an essential business. Based on the current environment, it is unclear how the states in our market areas will continue to change or relax their stay at home and social distancing policies in the future and the impact of these policies on our customers located in and the economies of these states.

COVID-19 Impact - National: The U.S. has experienced a substantial decline nationally in economic condition, although it experienced an annualized 33.1% GDP rebound in the third quarter of 2020, recovering a portion of the ground that the GDP lost earlier in 2020. In addition, the national unemployment rate in September 2020 of 7.9% has declined 3.2% from June 2020; however this rate remains substantially higher than the national unemployment rate of 3.5% in September 2019 per the U.S. Department of Labor.

Policy and Regulatory Developments

Federal, state, and local governments and regulatory authorities have enacted and issued a range of policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the following:

• The Federal Reserve decreased the range for the federal funds target rate by 0.5% on March 3, 2020, and by another 1.0% on March 16, 2020, reaching a current range of 0.0 – 0.25%.

• On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the CARES Act, which established a $2.0 trillion economic stimulus package, including cash payments to individuals, supplemental unemployment insurance benefits and a $349 billion PPP loan program administered through the SBA. The Bank was a participating lender in the PPP. The provisions of the PPP were modified on June 5, 2020 by the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020. In addition, the CARES Act provides financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. See Note 4. Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses for additional information on TDRs. The PPP closed on August 8, 2020, and the SBA is no longer accepting PPP applications from participating lenders.

• On April 7, 2020, federal banking regulators issued a revised Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions, which, among other things, encouraged financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations because of the effects of COVID-19, and stated that institutions generally do not need to categorize COVID-19-related modifications as TDRs and that the agencies will not direct supervised institutions to automatically categorize all COVID-19 related loan modifications as TDRs. See Note 4. Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Credit Losses for additional information on TDRs.

• On April 9, 2020, the FRB announced additional measures aimed at supporting small and mid-sized business, as well as state and local governments impacted by COVID-19. The FRB announced the Main Street Business Lending Program, which establishes two new loan facilities intended to facilitate lending to small and mid-sized businesses: (1) the Main Street New Loan Facility ("MSNLF"), and (2) the Main Street Expanded Loan Facility ("MSELF"). MSNLF loans are unsecured term loans originated on or after April 8, 2020, while MSELF loans are provided as upsized tranches of existing loans originated before April 8, 2020. The combined size of the program is authorized up to $600 billion.

• On August 3, 2020, the FFIEC issued a joint statement on Additional Loan Accommodations Related to COVID-19, which, among other things, encouraged financial institutions to consider prudent additional loan accommodation options when borrowers are unable to meet their obligations due to continuing financial challenges. Accommodation options should be based on prudent risk management and consumer protection principles.

• In addition to the policy responses described above, the federal bank regulatory agencies, along with their state counterparts, have issued a stream of guidance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and have taken a number of unprecedented steps to help banks navigate the pandemic and mitigate its impact. These include, without limitation: requiring banks to focus on business continuity and pandemic planning; adding pandemic scenarios to stress testing; encouraging bank use of capital buffers and reserves in lending programs; permitting certain regulatory reporting extensions; reducing margin requirements on swaps; permitting certain otherwise prohibited investments in investment

funds; issuing guidance to encourage banks to work with customers affected by the pandemic and encourage loan workouts; and providing credit under the CRA for certain pandemic-related loans, investments and public service. Moreover, because of the need for social distancing measures, the agencies revamped the manner in which they conducted periodic examinations of their regulated institutions, including making greater use of off-site reviews. The FRB also issued guidance encouraging banking institutions to utilize its discount window for loans and intraday credit extended by its Reserve Banks to help households and businesses impacted by the pandemic and announced numerous funding facilities. The FDIC has also acted to mitigate the deposit insurance assessment effects of participating in the PPP and the Federal Reserve’s PPP Liquidity Facility and Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility.

Effects on Our Business .

The COVID-19 pandemic and the specific developments referred to above have had and will continue to have a significant impact on our business. In particular, we anticipate that a significant portion of the Bank’s borrowers in the non-essential retail, restaurants, hotels, CRE-retail, and arts, entertainment & gaming industries, which represents approximately 14% of our loan portfolio, will endure significant economic distress which will adversely affect their ability to repay existing indebtedness. These developments, together with economic conditions generally, are also expected to impact the value of certain collateral securing our loans. As a result, we anticipate that our financial condition, capital levels and results of operations will be significantly adversely affected, as described in further detail below.

Our Response .

The Company maintains a Business Continuity Plan, which was enacted upon the World Health Organization declaration of COVID-19 to be a global pandemic. Shortly after enacting the plan, the Company deployed a successful remote working strategy. As of September 30, 2020, the majority of our employees have returned to work in our branch offices with no disruption to our operations. Our response to COVID-19 continues to be focused on how we can best serve our employees, customers, and communities. The Bank has utilized a combination of digital banking, voice, branch drive-thru and other channels in order to meet the needs of our customers. In addition, we have implemented additional safety measures to achieve appropriate social distancing for both customers and employees throughout our locations, with all of our locations having capacity restrictions and requirements to wear protective face coverings, among other social distancing requirements for both customers and employees. We have also increased our cleaning services and implemented business travel restrictions.

We continue to work with our customers to understand the level of impact to their business operations as the pandemic continues to determine how best to serve them in these unprecedented times. We also continue to lend to qualified businesses for working capital and general business purposes, while also meeting the needs of our individual customers. Further, we implemented a loan payment deferral program and assisted our clients through the PPP, including 2,682 for existing and new customers in the aggregate loan amount of $348.6 million, and the CARES Act SBA payment forgiveness program. We have committed an additional $150,000 to our annual charitable giving. In addition, we've partnered with other local banks in the Iowa City area in the Holding our Own program. This program encourages the community to shop local, with a goal of motivating over $1.0 million of local spending.

Financial Condition & Results of Operations.

Net Interest Income. The Company's interest income on loans could be reduced due to COVID-19 and due to reductions in the targeted federal funds rate. In keeping with guidance from regulators, the Company is actively working with COVID-19 affected borrowers to defer their payments, interest, and fees. While interest and fees will still accrue to income, through normal GAAP accounting, should eventual credit losses on these deferred payments emerge, interest income and fees accrued would need to be reversed. In such a scenario, interest income in future periods could be negatively impacted. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact from COVID-19 may affect its borrowers’ ability to repay in future periods. In addition, the Company's interest income on investment securities could be reduced due to COVID-19. A severe and sustained economic downturn could impact the debt securities issuers' ability to make payments on debt or to raise additional funds to continue operations, which could result in an increased credit loss expense. In addition, the Company's interest expense could be impacted by COVID-19 due to changes in funding mix. An extended recession could cause large numbers of our deposit customers to withdraw their funds, which could increase our reliance on more volatile or expensive funding sources.

Credit Loss Expense. The Company's credit loss expense is impacted by COVID-19. Pertaining to our September 30, 2020 financial condition and results of operations, COVID-19, as well as other factors, such as changes in our modeling assumptions, had an impact on our ACL. While we have not yet experienced any charge-offs related to COVID-19, our ACL calculation and credit loss expense are significantly impacted by changes in forecasted economic conditions. Significant worsening of forecasted conditions is possible and would result in further increases in the ACL and credit loss expense in future periods.

Table of Contents

Noninterest Income. The Company’s fee income could be reduced due to COVID-19. For example, in keeping with guidance from regulators, during the second and third quarters of 2020, the Company has continued to work with COVID-19 affected customers and has waived fees from a variety of sources, such as, but not limited to, insufficient funds and overdraft fees, ATM fees, account maintenance fees, etc. These reductions in fees are expected, at this time, to be temporary in conjunction with the length of the expected COVID-19 related economic crisis as we are working to help our customers during this time. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact from COVID-19 is likely to impact its fee income in future periods.

Noninterest Expense. We anticipate increases in noninterest expenses that are a result of COVID-19 for additional cleaning services, protective equipment, supplies, and expanded IT equipment and network/information services. We also anticipate employee productivity will also decline due to pandemic-related absences and normal challenges associated with working remotely. We also anticipate that the PPP will impact noninterest expense by impacting the timing of compensation and benefit expense as PPP loan origination costs are deferred and amortized over the life of the loan to which they relate. In addition, we also anticipate the PPP will also lead to increased information service expenses.

Credit Administration. Section 4013 of the CARES Act, “Temporary Relief From Troubled Debt Restructurings,” allows financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time during the COVID-19 pandemic. In March 2020, various regulatory agencies, including the FRB and the FDIC, issued an interagency statement, effective immediately, on loan modifications and reporting for financial institutions working with customers affected by COVID-19. The agencies confirmed with the staff of the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not to be considered TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. As of September 30, 2020, the total amount of the eligible loans in deferral (deferral of principal and/or interest) that met the requirements set forth under the interagency statement and therefore were not considered TDRs was 113 loans, totaling $115.3 million as compared to 832 loans totaling $462.2 million as of June 30, 2020. We anticipate that the current and future economic conditions will continue to have an impact on the initial modifications that were made that qualified under such criteria. As such, we expect the Company's financial statements will be materially impacted by the CARES Act and the interagency guidance, of which at this time the total impact cannot be quantified.

The Bank was a participating lender in the PPP. The PPP loans have a two-year term and earn interest at 1%. Loans funded through the PPP program are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government if certain criteria are met. The Company believes that the majority of these loans will ultimately be forgiven by the SBA in accordance with the terms of the program. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $331.7 million in outstanding PPP loans, with $8.1 million of unamortized net loan origination fees. In addition, as of September 30, 2020, certain of the Company's PPP loan customers had initiated the loan forgiveness process, but no PPP loans submitted to the SBA by the Company had yet been forgiven. Should those circumstances change, the Company could be required to establish additional allowance for credit loss through additional credit loss expense charged to earnings.

Loan Portfolio. We anticipate that loan growth will be impacted in the future as a result of COVID-19 and the related decline in economic conditions in our market areas. While all industries have and will continue to experience adverse impacts as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we had exposures in the following industries that we considered to be "vulnerable" to significant impact as of September 30, 2020.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Due to the economic impact that COVID-19 has had on the Company, management concluded that factors, such as the decline in macroeconomic conditions and a sustained decrease in share price, have led to the occurrence of a triggering event for goodwill impairment. The Company completed an interim goodwill assessment as of September 30, 2020 that contemplated a single reporting unit. Based upon our interim assessment, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $31.5 million, as our estimated fair value was less than our book value on that date. This non-cash charge

was reflected within "Noninterest expense" in the Consolidated Statements of Income and had no impact on our regulatory capital ratios, cash flows or liquidity position.

Capital and liquidity.

As of September 30, 2020, all of our capital ratios, and the Bank’s capital ratios, were in excess of all regulatory requirements. While we believe that we have sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by COVID-19, our reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by further credit losses. On July 28, 2020, the Company completed the private placement of $65.0 million of its subordinated notes, of which $63.75 million have been exchanged for subordinated notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The 5.75% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes are due July 30, 2030. For regulatory capital purposes, the subordinated notes have been structured to qualify initially as Tier 2 Capital for the Company. We rely on cash on hand as well as dividends from our subsidiary bank to service our debt. If our capital deteriorates such that our Bank is unable to pay dividends to us for an extended period of time, we may not be able to service our debt. If an extended recession causes large numbers of our deposit customers to withdraw their funds, we might become more reliant on volatile or more expensive sources of funding.

In March 2020, the Company temporarily suspended its share repurchase program in light of market conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company's board of directors authorized resuming repurchases under the Company's share repurchase program.

Processes, controls and business continuity plan

The Company has invoked its Business Continuity Plan that includes a remote working strategy. The Company does not anticipate incurring additional material costs related to its continued deployment of the remote working strategy. No material operational or internal control challenges or risks have been identified to date as a result of the contingencies we have had to deal with as a result of COVID-19. The Company does not anticipate significant challenges to its ability to maintain its systems and controls in light of the measures the Company has taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The Company does not currently face any material resource constraint through the implementation of its Business Continuity Plan.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management has identified the accounting policies related to the ACL, accounting for business combinations, and goodwill and other intangible assets as critical accounting estimates. Information about our critical accounting estimates is included under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019

Summary

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, we incurred a net loss of $19.8 million, which was a decrease of $32.1 million from net income of $12.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in net income was due primarily to an increase of $28.5 million, or 90.6%, in noninterest expense, a $5.4 million, or 12.6%, decrease in net interest income, in addition to an increase in credit loss expenses of $0.7 million, or 17.1%. Noninterest expense increased primarily as a result of the $31.5 million goodwill impairment that was recorded in the third quarter of 2020. Offsetting these amounts was an increase of $1.6 million, or 19.6%, in noninterest income between the two comparable periods and a decrease in income tax expense of $1.0 million. Both basic and diluted loss per common share for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were $1.23 as compared with both basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.76 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Excluding the goodwill impairment, core earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were lower at $11.7 million, or $0.73 per diluted common share (a non-GAAP financial measure - see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP equivalent) compared to net income of $12.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Our annualized return on average shareholders' equity was (14.88)% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared with 9.92% for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Our annualized return on average tangible equity was 12.56% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared with 15.57% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 (a non-GAAP financial measure - see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP equivalent).

Net interest income of $37.8 million for the third quarter of 2020 was down $5.4 million, or 12.6%, from $43.3 million for the third quarter of 2019, due primarily to net interest margin compression, which was only slightly offset by larger volumes of interest earning assets. The primary drivers of the decrease in net interest income was a decrease in interest income of $8.9 million, or 16.5%, offset in part by a decline in interest expense of $3.5 million, or 32.1%. The decline in interest income was primarily a result of a decline of $11.0 million in interest income from loans. Partially offsetting this decline was an increase in the interest income earned from investment securities, which was $6.9 million for the third quarter of 2020, up $2.2 million from the third quarter of 2019 due to an increased volume of securities, which was a result of the Company's investment of net deposit inflows. The contributing factors for the decrease in interest expense was a decrease of $2.9 million in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits due to lower costs incurred on such deposits that more than offset the increase in the volume of deposits from PPP loan proceeds that were generally deposited into customer accounts at the Bank, coupled with a decrease in the interest expense on borrowed funds of $0.5 million. Loan purchase discount accretion added $1.9 million to net interest income in the third quarter of 2020 as compared to $7.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. Net fee accretion for PPP loans for the third quarter of 2020 was $1.3 million, compared to none in the third quarter of 2019.

The tax equivalent net interest margin for the third quarter of 2020 was 3.14%, or 101 basis points lower than the tax equivalent net interest margin of 4.15% for the third quarter of 2019. The yield on loans decreased 128 basis points, approximately 18 basis points of which was attributable to PPP loans, which have a coupon rate of 1%. The tax equivalent yield on investment securities decreased by 68 basis points. Combined, the resulting yield on interest-earning assets for the third quarter of 2020 was 144 basis points lower than the third quarter of 2019. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 46 basis points, while the average cost of borrowings was lower by 58 basis points for the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019. The FRB decreased the target federal funds interest rate by 25 basis points in each of August, September and October 2019, and an additional 150 basis points in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic which contributed to the decreasing interest rates in the third quarter 2020 as compared to the third quarter 2019. These decreases impact the comparability of net interest income and net interest margin between 2019 and 2020.

Credit Loss Expense

During the third quarter of 2020, we recorded credit loss expense of $5.0 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 17.1%, from $4.3 million for the third quarter of 2019. The increased credit loss expense in the third quarter of 2020 was attributable to

changes in the economic forecast and changes to modeling assumptions. In addition, upon the Company's adoption of the CECL accounting guidance on January 1, 2020, the methodology for estimating the total amount of the credit loss expense changed. Specifically, for the third quarter of 2020, we utilized the current expected credit loss methodology, as compared to incurred loss methodology that was utilized in the prior year comparable period. The total amount of net loans charged off in the third quarter of 2020 was higher at $1.8 million, as compared to $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2019.

Total noninterest income for the third quarter of 2020 increased $1.6 million, or 19.6%, to $9.6 million from $8.0 million in the third quarter of 2019. The most notable increase in noninterest income was an increase of $2.3 million in loan revenue, which was driven by increased volume in origination of home mortgage loans as a result of the low interest rate environment. Slightly offsetting the increase in loan revenue was a decrease of $0.5 million in overdraft fees, included in service charges and fees, in the third quarter of 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, which reflected lower customer overdraft activity coupled with increased waivers of such fees.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2020 was $59.9 million, an increase of $28.5 million, or 90.6%, from $31.4 million for the third quarter of 2019. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to a $31.5 million goodwill impairment charge. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, core noninterest expense decreased $3.0 million, or 9.6%, primarily as a result of the decline in merger-related expenses that were incurred in the third quarter of 2019 from the acquisition of ATBancorp that was completed on May 1, 2019.

Income Tax Expense

Our effective income tax rate, or income taxes divided by income before taxes, was (12.9)% for the third quarter of 2020, as compared to the effective tax rate of 20.9% for the third quarter of 2019. Excluding non-deductible goodwill impairment, the effective income tax rate in the third quarter of 2020 was 16.3%, reflecting benefits related to general business and renewable energy tax credits and tax exempt interest. Excluding the non-deductible goodwill impairment, the effective tax rate for the full year of 2020 is currently expected to be in the range of 14-16%. See Note 11. Income Taxes for additional information.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019

Summary

On May 1, 2019, we completed the acquisition of ATBancorp. The effects of this acquisition are one of the primary causes of the stated changes in our operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, unless otherwise noted.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we incurred a net loss of $10.1 million, which was a decrease of $40.3 million from net income of $30.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in net income was due primarily to an increase of $36.9 million, or 45.5% in noninterest expense, coupled with an increase of $24.8 million in credit loss expense. Noninterest expense increased primarily as a result of the $31.5 million goodwill impairment that was recorded in the third quarter of 2020. The increase in credit loss expense reflects the Company's adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, combined with the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on current and forecasted economic conditions for the U.S. and our regional economies, as well as changes in our modeling assumptions. Offsetting these amounts was a $9.9 million, or 9.5%, increase in net interest income, a $5.8 million, or 26.0%, increase in noninterest income, in addition to a decrease in income tax expense of $5.7 million between the two comparable periods. Both basic and diluted loss per common share for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $0.63 as compared with basic and diluted earnings per common share of $2.10 and $2.09 respectively for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Excluding the goodwill impairment, core earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were lower at $21.4 million, or $1.33 per diluted common share (a non-GAAP financial measure - see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP equivalent), compared to $30.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Our annualized return on average shareholders' equity was (2.60)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared with 9.37% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Our annualized return on average tangible equity was 8.58% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared with 13.48% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (a non-GAAP financial measure - see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP equivalent).

Our net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $113.9 million, up $9.9 million, or 9.5%, from $104.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as larger volumes of interest earning assets more than offset net interest margin compression. The primary drivers of the increase in net interest income were an increase in interest income of $6.9 million, or 5.2%, and a decrease of $3.0 million, or 10.4%, in interest expense. The increase in interest income was primarily a result of a $4.8 million, or 35.0%, increase in interest income earned from investment securities, coupled with increased loan interest income, which rose $2.2 million, or 1.8%, for the first nine months of 2020 compared to the first nine months of 2019. Interest expense declined primarily as a result of the $2.0 million, or 9.3%, decline in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits for the first nine months of 2020 compared to the first nine months of 2019 due to lower costs incurred on such deposits that more than offset the increase in the volume of deposits from PPP loan proceeds that were generally deposited into customer accounts at the Bank. Loan purchase discount accretion added $7.6 million to net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to $10.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Net fee accretion for PPP loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $2.3 million, compared to none in the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The tax equivalent net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 3.36%, or 47 basis points lower than the tax equivalent net interest margin of 3.83% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The yield on loans decreased 66 basis points, approximately 5 basis points of which was attributable to PPP loans, which have a coupon rate of 1%. The tax equivalent yield on investment securities decreased by 45 basis points. Combined, the resulting yield on interest-earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 76 basis points lower than the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 28 basis points, while the average cost of borrowings was lower by 51 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The FRB decreased the target federal funds interest rate by a total of 25 basis points in each of August, September and October of 2019, and an additional 150 basis points in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which contributed to the decreasing interest rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. These decreases impact the comparability of net interest income and net interest margin between 2019 and 2020.

Credit Loss Expense

We recorded credit loss expense of $31.4 million in the first nine months of 2020, an increase of $24.8 million, or 379.1%, from $6.6 million for the same period of 2019. Our credit loss expense reflected the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on current and forecasted economic conditions for the U.S. and our regional economies, in addition to changes to modeling assumptions.

Table of Contents

In addition, upon the Company's adoption of the CECL accounting guidance on January 1, 2020, the methodology for estimating the total amount of the credit loss expense changed. Specifically, for the first nine months of 2020, we utilized the current expected credit loss methodology, as compared to incurred loss methodology that was utilized in the prior year comparable period. The total amount of net loans charged off in the first nine months of 2020 was higher at $4.9 million, as compared to $4.3 million in the first nine months of 2019.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income	$	27,994	$	22,210	$	5,784	26.0	%

Total noninterest income for the first nine months of 2020 increased $5.8 million, or 26.0%, to $28.0 million from $22.2 million during the same period of 2019. This increase was due primarily to an increase in loan revenue of $4.3 million, which was primarily driven by increased volume in originations of home mortgage loans as a result of the low interest rate environment, coupled with an increase in income from our commercial loan back-to-back swap program of $2.4 million, as recorded in the 'Other' noninterest income. In addition, the increase in noninterest income was also attributable to the additional fee income earned as a result of the acquisition of ATBancorp, which is reflected within the $1.5 million increase in investment services and trust activities. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease of $1.1 million from a pre-tax gain that was recognized from the sale of sale of MidWest One Insurance Services, Inc. assets during the first nine months of 2019 and was recorded in 'Other' noninterest income. In addition, also offsetting in part the identified increases was a decrease of $0.7 million in insurance commissions as a result of the sale of MidWest One Insurance Services, Inc. in 2019, and a decrease of $0.7 million in overdraft fees, which reflected lower customer overdraft activity coupled with increased waivers of such fees and are recorded within service charges and fees. Further, there was a decrease of $0.4 million in the mortgage servicing rights fair value adjustment, which is recorded in 'Loan revenue' in noninterest income, during the first nine months of 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019.

Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $118.0 million, an increase of $36.9 million, or 45.5%, from $81.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase in noninterest expense was due primarily to a $31.5 million goodwill impairment charge recognized as of September 30, 2020. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, core noninterest expense increased $5.4 million, or 6.6%. The increase in core noninterest expense was due primarily to increases in compensation and employee benefits of $3.8 million due to the addition of employees resulting from the merger with ATBancorp, offset in part by an increase of $1.5 million in deferred compensation and employee benefits stemming from loan origination cost. In addition, the increase in core noninterest expense was also due to an increase of $1.4 million in the amortization of intangibles resulting from the merger with ATBancorp and an increase in 'Other' noninterest expense, which was primarily due to the recognition of $1.4 million of amortization expense related to the renewable energy tax credit. Offsetting these increases was a decrease in merger-related expenses, a primary contributing factor to the decline of $2.2 million in legal and professional expenses.

Income Tax Expense

Our effective income tax rate, or income taxes divided by income before taxes, was (35.1)% for the first nine months of 2020, as compared to an effective tax rate of 21.7% for the first nine months of 2019. Excluding non-deductible goodwill impairment, the effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2020 was 10.9%, reflecting benefits related to tax-exempt interest income, bank-owned life insurance, general business and renewable energy tax credits. Excluding the non-deductible goodwill impairment, the effective tax rate for the full year 2020 is currently expected to be in the range of 14-16%. See Note 11. Income Taxes for additional information.

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

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

When a loan officer originates a new loan, based upon proper loan authorization, he or she documents the credit file with an offering sheet summary, supplemental underwriting analysis, relevant financial information and collateral evaluations. All of this information is used in the determination of the initial loan risk rating. The Bank’s loan review department undertakes

Table of Contents

independent credit reviews of relationships based on either criteria established by loan policy, risk-focused sampling, or random sampling. Loan policy requires all credit relationships with total exposure of $5.0 million or more, as determined semi-annually as of month-end December and June, to be reviewed no less than annually. In addition, all classified (loan grades 6 through 8) and watch (loan grade 5) rated credits over $1.0 million are to be reviewed no less than annually. The individual loan reviews consider such items as: loan type; nature, type and estimated value of collateral; borrower and/or guarantor estimated financial strength; most recently available financial information; related loans and total borrower exposure; and current and anticipated performance of the loan. The results of such reviews are presented to both executive management and the audit committee of the Company's board of directors.

Through the review of delinquency reports, updated financial statements or other relevant information, the lending officer and/or loan review personnel may determine that a loan relationship has weakened to the point that a watch (loan grade 5) or classified (loan grades 6 through 8) status is warranted. When a loan relationship with total related exposure of $1.0 million or greater is adversely graded (loan grade 5 or above), or is classified as a TDR (regardless of size), the lending officer is then charged with preparing a loan strategy summary worksheet that outlines the background of the credit problem, current repayment status of the loans, current collateral evaluation and a workout plan of action. This plan may include goals to improve the credit rating, assist the borrower in moving the loans to another institution and/or collateral liquidation. All such reports are first presented to regional management and then to the loan strategy committee. Copies of the minutes of these committee meetings are presented to the board of directors of the Bank.

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

The review process also provides for the upgrade of loans that show improvement since the last review. All requests for an upgrade of a credit are approved by the loan strategy committee before the rating can be changed.

Enhanced Credit Monitoring

In response to the current economic environment, beginning in the second quarter of 2020, we performed an additional risk rating review, which encompassed all loans greater than $1 million from industry groups identified as "vulnerable" to significant impact from COVID-19, in addition to the top 30 largest loan relationships. The additional risk rating review allows us to build on our existing portfolio monitoring processes, while also creating enhanced monitoring procedures to increase the penetration of our portfolio and ultimately the transparency of the risk profile of the portfolio.

Loan Modifications

We restructure loans for our customers who appear to be able to meet the terms of their loan over the long term, but who may be unable to meet the terms of the loan in the near term due to individual circumstances. We consider the customer’s past performance, previous and current credit history, the individual circumstances surrounding the current difficulties and their plan to meet the terms of the loan in the future prior to restructuring the terms of the loan. The following factors are indicators that a concession has been granted (one or multiple items may be present):

• The borrower receives a reduction of the stated interest rate for the remaining original life of the debt.

• The borrower receives an extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market interest rate for new debt with similar risk characteristics.

• The borrower receives a reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt as stated in the instrument or other agreement.

• The borrower receives a deferral of required payments (principal and/or interest).

• The borrower receives a reduction of the accrued interest.

Generally, short-term deferral of required payments would not be considered a concession. Once a restructured loan has gone 90 days or more past due or is placed on nonaccrual status, it is included in the 90 days or more past due or nonaccrual totals.

Table of Contents

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company modified twelve loans that were considered TDRs due to granting a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties.

Refer above to the "COVID-19 Update" section for details pertaining to the modifications that were a result of COVID-19 that were not deemed to be TDRs.

Allowance for Credit Losses

CECL Adoption and ACL Framework: The framework requires that management's estimate reflects credit losses over the full remaining expected life of each credit, which includes the acquired loan portfolio that was previously excluded, and considers expected future changes in macroeconomic conditions. The adoption resulted in the recognition on January 1, 2020 of cumulative effect adjustments of $4.0 million related to the allowance for credit losses for loans and $3.4 million related to the liability for off-balance sheet credit exposures. See Note 2. Effect of New Financial Accounting Standards for additional information on the Company's adoption of CECL.

Actual Results: Our ACL as of September 30, 2020 was $58.5 million, which was 1.65% of loans held for investment, net of unearned income, as of that date. This compares with an ACL of $29.1 million as of December 31, 2019, which was 0.84% of loans held for investment, net of unearned income, as of that date. The ACL at September 30, 2020 does not include a reserve for the PPP loans as they are fully guaranteed by the SBA. When adjusted for the impact of PPP loans, the ratio of the ACL as a percentage of loans held for investment, net of unearned income as of September 30, 2020 was 1.82% (a non-GAAP financial measure - see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures"). The increase in the ACL is due in part to the adoption of the CECL accounting guidance, which included the one-time cumulative effect adjustment previously described. The increase in the ACL also reflects changes in current and forecasted conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as changes to modeling assumptions. The liability for off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled $4.5 million as of September 30, 2020 and is included in 'Other liabilities' on the balance sheet.

The Company recorded credit loss expense related to loans of $30.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Gross charge-offs for the first nine months of 2020 totaled $5.8 million, while there were $0.9 million in recoveries of previously charged-off loans. The ratio of annualized net loan charge offs to average loans for the first nine months of 2020 was 0.18% compared to 0.23% for the year ended December 31, 2019. As of September 30, 2020, the ACL was 140.4% of nonperforming loans compared with 69.9% as of December 31, 2019. This increase in the ratio of the ACL to nonperforming loans was due to an increased provision that was driven by the deterioration in current and forecasted economic conditions, largely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Economic Forecast: At September 30, 2020, the economic forecast used by the Company showed a decline in Midwest unemployment over the next four forecasted quarters; increases in national retail sales over the next three forecasted quarters, with a decline in the fourth quarter; decreases in the CRE index over the next two forecasted quarters, with improvements beginning in the third quarter; increases in U.S. GDP over the next three forecasted quarters, with a decline in the fourth quarter; decreases in the national home price index over the next three forecasted quarters, with improvements beginning in the fourth quarter; and a decline in the U.S. rental vacancy rate through the second forecasted quarter, with an improvement in the third forecasted quarter, and then a decline beginning in the fourth forecasted quarter. These loss drivers saw improvements when compared to the prior quarter, however are consistently worse when compared to recent historical trends over the past several years, largely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Loan Policy: We review all nonaccrual loans greater than $250,000 individually on a quarterly basis to estimate the appropriate allowance due to collateral deficiency or insufficient cash-flow based on a discounted cash-flow analysis. At September 30, 2020, TDRs were not a material portion of the loan portfolio. We review loans 90 days or more past due that are still accruing interest no less than quarterly to determine if the asset is both well secured and in the process of collection. If not, such loans are placed on non-accrual status.

Based on the inherent risk in the loan portfolio, management believed that as of September 30, 2020, the ACL was adequate; however, there is no assurance losses will not exceed the allowance, and any growth in the loan portfolio or uncertainty in the general economy will require that management continue to evaluate the adequacy of the ACL and make additional provisions in future periods as deemed necessary.

Capital Resources

Shareholder's Equity

Total shareholders’ equity was $499.1 million as of September 30, 2020, compared to $509.0 million as of December 31, 2019, a decrease of $9.9 million, or 1.9%. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $26.1 million in retained earnings. The decrease in retained earnings was due to a $5.4 million negative adjustment for the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle related to CECL, dividends paid of $10.6 million, and net loss of $10.1 million for the first nine months of 2020. Partially offsetting this decrease was an increase of $15.4 million in accumulated other comprehensive income, which was due to market value adjustments on investment securities AFS and changes in the cash flow hedge. In addition, there was a $1.8 million increase in treasury stock due to the repurchase of 95,340 shares of Company common stock at a cost of $2.6 million, partially offset by the issuance of 32,488 shares of Company common stock in connection with stock compensation plans during the first nine months of 2020. The total shareholders’ equity to total assets ratio was 9.36% at September 30, 2020, down from 10.94% at December 31, 2019. The tangible common equity ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure -see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures") was 7.82% at September 30, 2020, compared with 8.50% at December 31, 2019. Book value was $31.00 per share at September 30, 2020, a decrease from $31.49 per share at December 31, 2019. Tangible book value per share (a non-GAAP financial measure - see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures") was $25.45 at September 30, 2020, an increase from $23.81 per share at December 31, 2019.

Capital Adequacy

Our Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was 10.73% as of September 30, 2020 and was 10.47% as of December 31, 2019. Risk-based capital guidelines require the classification of assets and some off-balance-sheet items in terms of credit-risk exposure and the measuring of capital as a percentage of the risk-adjusted asset totals. Management believed that, as of September 30, 2020, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which we were subject. As of that date, the Bank was “well capitalized” under regulatory prompt corrective action provisions. See Note 13. Regulatory Capital Requirements and Restrictions on Subsidiary Cash to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information related to our capital.

Stock Compensation

Restricted stock units were granted to certain officers and directors of the Company on February 15, 2020, May 15, 2020, and August 15, 2020 in the amounts of 48,066, 17,084, and 6,579 respectively. Additionally, during the first nine months of 2020, 37,005 shares of common stock were issued in connection with the vesting of previously awarded grants of restricted stock units, of which 4,517 shares were surrendered by grantees to satisfy tax requirements, and 1,396 unvested restricted stock units were forfeited.

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company's board of directors authorized resuming repurchases under of the Company's share repurchase program. The Company previously announced the temporary suspension of its share repurchase program in light of market conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Liquidity

Liquidity Management

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

We had liquid assets (cash and cash equivalents) of $134.9 million as of September 30, 2020, compared with $73.5 million as of December 31, 2019. Interest-bearing deposits in banks at September 30, 2020, were $55.4 million, an increase of $49.3 million from $6.1 million at December 31, 2019. Debt securities classified as AFS, totaling $1.4 billion and $786.0 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, could be sold to meet liquidity needs if necessary. Additionally, the Bank maintains unsecured lines of credit with several correspondent banks and secured lines with the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window and the FHLB that would allow us to borrow funds on a short-term basis, if necessary.

Generally, our principal sources of funds are deposits, advances from the FHLB, principal repayments on loans, proceeds from sale of loans, proceeds from the maturity and sale of investment securities, our federal funds lines, and funds provided by

Table of Contents

operations. While scheduled loan amortization and maturing interest-bearing deposits in banks are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by economic conditions, the general level of interest rates, and competition. We utilize particular sources of funds based on comparative costs and availability.

As of September 30, 2020, we had $26.8 million of long-term debt outstanding to an unaffiliated banking organization. We also have $41.7 million of indebtedness payable under junior subordinated notes issued to subsidiary trusts that issued trust preferred securities in pooled offerings, and $74.7 million payable under subordinated debentures. See Note 10. Long-Term Debt to our consolidated financial statements for additional information related to our long-term debt.

Dividends

Our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders is affected by both corporate law considerations and policies of the FRB applicable to bank holding companies. The FRB requires notification and must provide approval before any declaration and payment of a dividend can occur in a period in which quarterly and/or cumulative twelve-month net earnings are insufficient to fund the dividend amount, among other requirements. We may not pay a dividend if the FRB objects or until such time as we receive approval from the FRB or we no longer need to provide notice under applicable regulations. Due to the impact of the goodwill impairment charge on our earnings during the third quarter of 2020, we were required to receive approval from the FRB, as described above, prior to declaring a dividend. Such approval was received from the FRB prior to the declaration of a cash dividend of $0.22 per share by the board of directors of the Company on October 28, 2020.

Inflation

The effects of price changes and inflation can vary substantially for most financial institutions. While management believes that inflation affects the growth of total assets, it is difficult to assess its overall impact on the Company. The price of one or more of the components of the Consumer Price Index may fluctuate considerably and thereby influence the overall Consumer Price Index without having a corresponding effect on interest rates or upon the cost of those goods and services normally purchased by us. In years of high inflation and high interest rates, intermediate and long-term interest rates tend to increase, thereby adversely impacting the market values of investment securities, mortgage loans and other long-term fixed rate loans held by financial institutions. In addition, higher short-term interest rates caused by inflation tend to increase financial institutions’ cost of funds. In other years, the reverse situation may occur.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

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

Our exposure to credit losses in the event of nonperformance is represented by the contractual amount of the commitments. Management does not expect any significant losses as a result of these commitments, and also expects to have sufficient liquidity available to cover these off-balance-sheet instruments. Off-balance-sheet transactions are more fully discussed in Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes to the contractual obligations existing at December 31, 2019, as disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We disclose certain non-GAAP ratios, including return on average tangible equity, tangible common equity, tangible book value per share, tangible common equity ratio, net interest margin (tax equivalent), core net interest margin, efficiency ratio, core earnings, and adjusted allowance for credit losses ratio. Management believes these measures provide investors with useful information regarding the Company's profitability, financial condition and capital adequacy, consistent with how management evaluates the Company's financial performance.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

In general, market risk is the risk of change in asset values due to movements in underlying market rates and prices. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and capital arising from movements in interest rates. Interest rate risk is the most significant market risk affecting the Company as other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity price risk, play a lesser role in the normal course of our business activities.

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

Liquidity Risk

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

Net cash inflows from operating activities were $42.0 million in the first nine months of 2020, compared with $39.4 million in the first nine months of 2019.

Net cash outflows from investing activities were $630.3 million in the first nine months of 2020, compared to net cash inflows of $69.2 million in the comparable nine-month period of 2019. Investment securities transactions resulted in net cash outflows of $549.9 million the first nine months of 2020 compared to inflows of $27.6 million during the same period of 2019. Net cash outflows related to the net increase in loans were $81.9 million for the first nine months of 2020, compared with $4.0 million of net cash inflows for the same period of 2019.

Table of Contents

Net cash inflows from financing activities in the first nine months of 2020 were $649.6 million, compared with net cash outflows of $67.5 million for the same period of 2019. Uses of cash in the first nine months of 2020 were highlighted by a net decrease of $50.0 million in long-term debt (excluding the net proceeds from the July 28, 2020 issuance of subordinated debt) and $10.6 million to pay dividends. Net cash provided by financing activities in the first nine months of 2020 were highlighted by a net increase of $63.8 million in proceeds received from the July 28, 2020 subordinated debt issuance, a net increase of $44.5 million in short-term borrowings, in addition to the largest financing cash inflow during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 of deposits, which increased $604.7 million.

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

• Federal Funds Lines

• Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window

• FHLB Borrowings

• Brokered Deposits

• Brokered Repurchase Agreements

Federal Funds Lines: Routine liquidity requirements are met by fluctuations in the federal funds positions of the Bank. The principal function of these funds is to maintain short-term liquidity. Unsecured federal funds purchased are viewed as a volatile liability and are not used as a long-term funding solution, especially when used to fund long-term assets. The current federal funds purchased limit is 10% of total assets, or the amount of established federal funds lines, whichever is smaller. Currently, the Bank has unsecured federal funds lines available totaling $145.0 million, which lines are tested annually to ensure availability.

Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window: The Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window is another source of liquidity, particularly during difficult economic times. The Bank has a borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago limited by the amount of municipal securities pledged against the line. As of September 30, 2020, the Bank had municipal securities with an approximate market value of $71.9 million pledged for liquidity purposes, and had a borrowing capacity of $67.9 million.

Table of Contents

FHLB Borrowings: FHLB borrowings provide both a source of liquidity and long-term funding for the Bank. Use of this type of funding is coordinated with both the strategic balance sheet growth projections and interest rate risk profile of the Bank. Factors that are taken into account when contemplating use of FHLB borrowings are the effective interest rate, the collateral requirements, community investment program credits, and the implications and cost of having to purchase incremental FHLB stock. The current FHLB borrowing limit is 45% of total assets. As of September 30, 2020, the Bank had $101.2 million in outstanding FHLB borrowings, leaving $430.4 million available for liquidity needs, based on collateral capacity. These borrowings are secured by various real estate loans (residential, commercial and agricultural).

Brokered Deposits: The Bank has brokered certificate of deposit lines and deposit relationships available to help diversify its various funding sources. Brokered deposits offer several benefits relative to other funding sources, such as: maturity structures which cannot be duplicated in the current retail market, deposit gathering which does not cannibalize the existing deposit base, the unsecured nature of these liabilities, and the ability to quickly generate funds. However, brokered deposits are often viewed as a volatile liability by banking regulators and market participants. This viewpoint, and the desire to not develop a large funding concentration in any one area outside of the Bank’s core market area, is reflected in an internal policy stating that the Bank limits the use of brokered deposits as a funding source to no more than 10% of total assets. Board approval is required to exceed this limit. The Bank will also have to maintain a “well capitalized” standing to access brokered deposits, as an “adequately capitalized” rating would require an FDIC waiver to do so, and an “undercapitalized” rating would prohibit it from using brokered deposits altogether.

Brokered Repurchase Agreements: Brokered repurchase agreements may be established with approved brokerage firms and banks. Repurchase agreements create rollover risk (the risk that a broker will discontinue the relationship due to market factors) and are not used as a long-term funding solution, especially when used to fund long-term assets. Collateral requirements and availability are evaluated and monitored. The current policy limit for brokered repurchase agreements is 10% of total assets. There were no outstanding brokered repurchase agreements at September 30, 2020.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is defined as the exposure of net interest income and fair value of financial instruments (interest-earning assets, deposits and borrowings) to movements in interest rates. The Company’s results of operations depend to a large degree on its net interest income and its ability to manage interest rate risk. The Company considers interest rate risk to be one of its more significant market risks. The major sources of the Company’s interest rate risk are timing differences in the maturity and re-pricing characteristics of assets and liabilities, changes in the shape of the yield curve, changes in customer behavior and changes in relationships between rate indices (basis risk). Management measures these risks and their impact in various ways, including through the use of income simulation and valuation analyses. The interest rate scenarios used in such analysis may include gradual or rapid changes in interest rates, spread narrowing and widening, yield curve twists and changes in assumptions about customer behavior in various interest rate scenarios. A mismatch between maturities, interest rate sensitivities and prepayment characteristics of assets and liabilities results in interest-rate risk. Like most financial institutions, we have material interest-rate risk exposure to changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates, as well as variable interest rate indices (e.g., the prime rate or LIBOR). There has been no material change in the Company’s interest rate profile between September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities has remained stable over the period.

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

We use a third-party service to model and measure our exposure to potential interest rate changes. For various assumed hypothetical changes in market interest rates, numerous other assumptions are made, such as prepayment speeds on loans and securities backed by mortgages, the slope of the Treasury yield-curve, the rates and volumes of our deposits, and the rates and volumes of our loans. There are two primary tools used to evaluate interest rate risk: net interest income simulation and economic value of equity ("EVE"). In addition, interest rate gap is reviewed to monitor asset and liability repricing over various time periods.

Net Interest Income Simulation: Management utilizes net interest income simulation models to estimate the near-term effects of changing interest rates on its net interest income. Net interest income simulation involves projecting net interest income under a variety of scenarios, which include varying the level of interest rates and shifts in the shape of the yield curve. Management exercises its best judgment in making assumptions regarding events that management can influence, such as non-contractual deposit re-pricings, and events outside management’s control, such as customer behavior on loan and deposit activity and the

Table of Contents

effect that competition has on both loan and deposit pricing. These assumptions are subjective and, as a result, net interest income simulation results will differ from actual results due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes, changes in market conditions, customer behavior and management strategies, among other factors. We perform various sensitivity analyses on assumptions of deposit attrition and deposit re-pricing.

The following table presents the anticipated effect on net interest income over a twelve month period if short- and long-term interest rates were to sustain an immediate decrease of 100 basis points or 200 basis points (the effects of which are not meaningful as of September 30, 2020 in the current low interest rate environment), or an immediate increase of 100 basis points or 200 basis points:


	Immediate Change in Rates

Percent change	0.9		%	0.1		%	(0.5)		%	(1.7)		%

As of September 30, 2020, 50.1% of the Company’s earning asset balances will reprice or are expected to pay down in the next twelve months, and 48.3% of the Company’s deposit balances are low cost or no cost deposits.

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

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

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of certain members of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we completed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September 30, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report with respect to timely communication to them and other members of management responsible for preparing periodic reports of material information required to be disclosed in this report as it relates to the Company and our consolidated subsidiaries.

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

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We implemented internal controls to ensure we adequately evaluated our contracts and properly assessed the impact of new accounting standards related to the current expected credit loss methodology on our financial statements to facilitate its adoption on January 1, 2020. There were no significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of the new standard.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Company and its subsidiaries are from time to time parties to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. We believe that there are no threatened or pending proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the Company’s business, against the Company or its subsidiaries or of which any of their property is the subject, which, if determined adversely, would have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the risk factors set forth under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the following risk factors apply to the Company:

The outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019, or COVID-19, has led to an economic recession and other severe disruptions in the U.S. economy and has adversely impacted certain industries in which our clients operate and impaired their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to us. As a result, we are starting to see the impact from COVID-19 on our business, and we believe that it will be significant, adverse and potentially material.

Currently, COVID-19 is spreading through the United States and the world. The spread of COVID-19 has caused severe disruptions in the U.S. economy at large, and for small businesses in particular, which has disrupted our operations. We are seeing the impact from COVID-19 on our business, and we believe that it will be significant, adverse and potentially material. The responses on the part of the U.S. and global governments and populations have created a recessionary environment, reduced economic activity and caused significant volatility in the global stock markets. We expect that we will experience significant disruptions across our business due to these effects, leading to decreased earnings and significant loan defaults and slowdowns in our loan collections. We expect increased unemployment and recessionary concerns will adversely affect loan originations in future periods.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in a decline in our clients’ businesses, a decrease in consumer confidence, an increase in unemployment and a disruption in the services provided by our vendors. Continued disruptions to our clients’ businesses could result in increased risk of delinquencies, defaults, foreclosures and losses on our loans, negatively impact regional economic conditions, result in declines in local loan demand, liquidity of loan guarantors, loan collateral (particularly in real estate), loan originations and deposit availability and negatively impact the implementation of our growth strategy. Although the U.S. government initially introduced a number of programs designed to soften the impact of COVID-19 on small businesses, the lack of additional programs may cause our borrowers to not be able to satisfy their financial obligations to us.

In addition, COVID-19 has impacted and likely will continue to impact the financial ability of businesses and consumers to borrow money, which would negatively impact loan volumes. Certain of our borrowers are in or have exposure to the non-essential retail, restaurants, hotels, CRE-retail, and arts, entertainment, and gaming industries and are located in areas that are or were quarantined or under stay-at-home orders, and COVID-19 may also have an adverse effect on our commercial real estate and consumer loan portfolios. As COVID-19 cases have begun to surge in recent months any new or prolonged quarantine or stay-at-home orders would have a negative adverse impact on these borrowers and their revenue streams, which consequently impacts their ability to meet their financial obligations and could result in loan defaults.

The ultimate extent of the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on our business will depend on many factors, primarily including the speed and extent of any recovery from the related economic recession. Among other things, this will depend on the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in our markets, the development and distribution of vaccines, therapies and other public health initiatives to control the spread of the disease, the nature and size of federal economic stimulus and other governmental efforts, and the possibility of additional state lockdown or stay-at-home orders in our markets in response to the recent surge in the number of COVID-19 cases.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic we may experience adverse financial consequences due to a number of other factors, including, but not limited to:

• a further and sustained decline in our stock price or the occurrence of what management would deem to be a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause management to perform impairment testing on our goodwill and other intangible assets that could result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period, which would adversely impact our results of operations and the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to us;

• the negative effect on earnings resulting from the Bank modifying loans and agreeing to loan payment deferrals due to the COVID-19 crisis;

Table of Contents

• increased demand on our liquidity as we meet borrowers’ needs and cover expenses related to our business continuity plan;

• the potential for reduced liquidity and its negative affect on our capital and leverage ratios;

• increased cyber and payment fraud risk due to increased online and remote activity;

• the modification of our business practices, including with respect to branch operations, employee travel, employee work locations, participation in meetings, events and conferences, and related changes for our vendors and other business partners;

• the disruption of our acquisition strategy due to the uncertainties created by the pandemic and challenges to our own business, which could limit or delay our future growth plans;

• increases in federal and state taxes as a result of the effects of the pandemic and stimulus programs on governmental budgets;

• an increase in FDIC premiums if the agency experiences additional resolution costs relating to bank failures; and

• other operational failures due to changes in our normal business practices because of the pandemic and governmental actions to contain it.

Overall, we believe that the economic impact from COVID-19 will be severe and could have a material and adverse impact on our business and result in significant losses in our loan portfolio, all of which would adversely and materially impact our earnings and capital. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience materially adverse impacts to our business as a result of the global economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the availability of credit, adverse impacts on liquidity and any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future. There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic may have, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change.

The U.S. government and banking regulators, including the FRB, have taken a number of unprecedented actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which could ultimately have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the CARES Act, which established a $2.0 trillion economic stimulus package, including cash payments to individuals, supplemental unemployment insurance benefits and a $349 billion loan program administered through the SBA referred to as the PPP. In addition to implementing the programs contemplated by the CARES Act, the federal bank regulatory agencies have issued a steady stream of guidance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and have taken a number of unprecedented steps to help banks navigate the pandemic and mitigate its impact. These include, without limitation:

• requiring banks to focus on business continuity and pandemic planning;

• adding pandemic scenarios to stress testing;

• encouraging bank use of capital buffers and reserves in lending programs;

• permitting certain regulatory reporting extensions;

• reducing margin requirements on swaps;

• permitting certain otherwise prohibited investments in investment funds;

• issuing guidance to encourage banks to work with customers affected by the pandemic and encourage loan workouts; and

• providing credit under the CRA for certain pandemic-related loans, investments and public service.

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected the financial markets, and the FRB has taken a number of actions in response. In March 2020, the FRB dramatically reduced the target federal funds rate and announced a $700 billion quantitative easing program in response to the expected economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the FRB reduced the interest that it pays on excess reserves. We expect that these reductions in interest rates, especially if prolonged, could adversely affect our net interest income, our net interest margin and our profitability. The FRB also launched the Main Street Lending Program, which offers deferred interest on four-year loans to small and mid-sized businesses. The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business activities as a result of new government and regulatory laws, policies, programs and guidelines, as well as market reactions to such activities, remains uncertain but may ultimately have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

COVID-19 has disrupted banking and other financial activities in the areas in which we operate and could potentially create widespread business continuity issues for us.

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the ability of our employees and clients to engage in banking and other financial transactions in the geographic areas in which we operate and could create widespread business continuity issues for us. We also could be adversely affected if key personnel or a significant number of employees were to become unavailable due to the effects and restrictions of an outbreak or escalation of the COVID-19 pandemic in our market areas, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions or other restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we have

business continuity plans and other safeguards in place, there is no assurance that such plans and safeguards will be effective. Further, we rely upon our third-party vendors to conduct business and to process, record, and monitor transactions. If any of these vendors are unable to continue to provide us with these services, it could negatively impact our ability to serve our clients.

As a participating lender in the PPP, we are subject to additional risks of litigation from our clients or other parties regarding our processing of loans for the PPP and risks that the SBA may not fund some of or all PPP loan guarantees.

The CARES Act included a $349 billion loan program administered through the SBA referred to as the PPP. Under the PPP, small businesses and other entities and individuals could apply for loans from existing SBA lenders and other approved regulated lenders that enroll in the program, subject to numerous limitations and eligibility criteria. The Bank participated as a lender in the PPP. The PPP opened on April 3, 2020; however, because of the short timeframe between the passing of the CARES Act and the opening of the PPP, there is some ambiguity in the laws, rules, and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP, which exposes us to risks relating to noncompliance with the PPP. On April 24, 2020, an additional $310 billion in funding for PPP loans was authorized, with such funds available for PPP loans beginning on April 27, 2020.

Since the opening of the PPP, several other larger banks have been subject to litigation regarding the process and procedures that such banks used in processing applications for the PPP and claims related to agent fees. If any such litigation is filed against us and is not resolved in a manner favorable to us, it may result in significant financial liability or adversely affect our reputation. In addition, litigation can be costly, regardless of outcome. Any financial liability, litigation costs, or reputational damage caused by the PPP related litigation could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We also have credit risk on PPP loans if a determination is made by the SBA that there is a deficiency in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded, or serviced by the Bank, such as an issue with the eligibility of a borrower to receive a PPP loan, which may or may not be related to the ambiguity in the laws, rules, and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP. In the event of a loss resulting from a default on a PPP loan and a determination by the SBA that there is a deficiency in the manner in which the PPP loan was originated, funded, or serviced by us, the SBA may deny its liability under the guaranty, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already paid under the guaranty, seek recovery of any loss related to the deficiency from us.

Our accounting estimates and risk management processes rely on analytical and forecasting models.

The processes that we use to estimate expected credit losses and to measure the fair value of assets carried on the balance sheet at fair value, as well as the processes used to estimate the effects of changing interest rates and other market measures on our financial condition and results of operations, depend upon the use of analytical and forecasting models. These models are complex and reflect assumptions that may not be accurate, particularly in times of market stress or other unforeseen circumstances, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we have processes and procedures in place governing internal valuation models and their testing and calibration, such assumptions are complex as we must make judgments about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Different assumptions could have resulted in significant changes in valuation, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We face the risk of possible future goodwill impairment.

The Company completed an interim goodwill assessment as of September 30, 2020, and based upon our interim assessment, we concluded that an impairment of goodwill existed. We will be required to perform additional goodwill impairment assessments on at least an annual basis, and perhaps more frequently, which could result in additional goodwill impairment charges. It is possible that the effects of COVID-19 could cause the occurrence of what management would deem to be subsequent triggering events that could, under certain circumstances, cause the Company to perform a goodwill or intangible asset impairment test and result in an additional impairment charge being recorded in that period. Any future goodwill impairment charge on the current goodwill balance, or future goodwill arising out of acquisitions that we are required to take, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations by reducing our net income or increasing our net losses.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On August 20, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a new share repurchase program, allowing for the repurchase of up to $10.0 million of common stock through December 31, 2021. The new repurchase program replaced the Company’s prior repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company had repurchased 174,702 shares of common stock for approximately $4.7 million since the plan was announced in October 2018. The prior program had authorized the repurchase of $5.0 million of stock and was due to expire on December 31, 2020.

As of September 30, 2020, the total amount available to be repurchased under the Company’s current share repurchase program was $6.4 million. Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company's board of directors authorized resuming repurchases under of the Company's share repurchase program. The Company previously announced the temporary suspension of its share repurchase program in light of market conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
