Old Second Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Table amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies followed in the preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial information.  The interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary, in the opinion of management, for a fair statement of results for the interim period presented.  Results for the period ended September 30, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.  These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in Old Second Bancorp, Inc.’s (the “Company”) annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.  Unless otherwise indicated, amounts in the tables contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements are in thousands.  Certain items in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follow general practices within the banking industry.  Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements.  Future changes in information may affect these estimates, assumptions, and judgments, which, in turn, may affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements.

All significant accounting policies are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.  These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes and in this discussion, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the consolidated financial statements and how those values are determined.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.  ASU 2014-09 was to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period.  The amendments can be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this update recognized at the date of initial application.  Early application is not permitted.  The Company is assessing the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its accounting and disclosures.  In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Deferral of the Effective Date .”  This accounting standards update defers the effective date for an additional year.  ASU 2015-14 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03 “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” ASU 2015-03 amended prior guidance to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs.  The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts.  ASU 2015-03 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within fiscal years .  The adoption of this standard will not have a material effect to the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

Note 2 – Securities

Investment Portfolio Management

Our investment portfolio serves the liquidity needs and income objectives of the Company.  While the portfolio serves as an important component of the overall liquidity management at the Bank, portions of the portfolio will also serve as income producing assets.  The size and composition of the portfolio reflects liquidity needs, loan demand and interest income objectives.

Portfolio size and composition will be adjusted from time to time.  While a significant portion of the portfolio consists of readily marketable securities to address liquidity, other parts of the portfolio may reflect funds invested pending future loan demand or to maximize interest income without undue interest rate risk.

Investments are comprised of debt securities and non-marketable equity investments.  Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value.  Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on securities available-for-sale are reported as a separate component of equity.  This balance sheet component changes as interest rates and market conditions change.  Unrealized gains and losses are not included in the calculation of regulatory capital.

Securities held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost and the discount or premium created in the 2013 transfer from available-for-sale securities or at the time of purchase thereafter is accreted or amortized to the maturity or expected payoff date but not an earlier call.  In accordance with GAAP, the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity.

Nonmarketable equity investments include Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (“FHLBC”) stock and Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago (“Reserve Bank”) stock.  FHLBC stock was recorded at $3.5 million at September 30, 2015, and $4.3 million at December 31, 2014.  Reserve Bank stock was recorded at $4.8 million at September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014.  Our FHLBC stock is necessary to maintain access to FHLBC advances.

The following table summarizes the amortized cost and fair value of the securities portfolio at September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, and the corresponding amounts of gross unrealized gains and losses (in thousands):

Recognition of other-than-temporary impairment was not necessary in the three and nine months ending September 30, 2015, or the year ended December 31, 2014.  The changes in fair value related primarily to interest rate fluctuations.  Our review of other-than-temporary impairment determined that there was no credit quality deterioration.

It is the policy of the Company to review each prospective credit in order to determine if an adequate level of security or collateral was obtained prior to making a loan.  The type of collateral, when required, will vary from liquid assets to real estate.  The Company’s access to collateral, in the event of borrower default, is assured through adherence to lending laws, the Company’s lending standards and credit monitoring procedures.  With selected exceptions, the Bank makes loans solely within its market area.  There are no significant concentrations of loans where the customers’ ability to honor loan terms is dependent upon a single economic sector, although the real estate related categories listed above represent 87.2% and 87.6% of the portfolio at September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively.

1. The “All other” class includes overdrafts and net deferred costs.

Credit Quality Indicators:

The Company categorizes loans into credit risk categories based on current financial information, overall debt service coverage, comparison against industry averages, historical payment experience, and current economic trends.  This analysis includes loans with outstanding balances or commitments greater than $ 50,000 and excludes homogeneous loans such as home equity lines of credit and residential mortgages.  Loans with a classified risk rating are reviewed quarterly regardless of size or loan type.  The Company uses the following definitions for classified risk ratings:

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

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution 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 existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Credits that are not covered by the definitions above are pass credits, which are not considered to be adversely rated.

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) are loans for which the contractual terms have been modified and both of these conditions exist: (1) there is a concession to the borrower and (2) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties.  Loans are restructured on a case-by-case basis during the loan collection process with modifications generally initiated at the request of the borrower.  These modifications may include reduction in interest rates, extension of term, deferrals of principal, and other modifications.  The Bank participates in the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s (the “Treasury”) Home Affordable Modification Program (“HAMP”) which gives qualifying homeowners an opportunity to refinance into more affordable monthly payments.

The specific allocation of the allowance for loan losses on a TDR is determined by either discounting the modified cash flows at the original effective rate of the loan before modification or is based on the underlying collateral value less costs to sell, if repayment of the loan is collateral-dependent. If the resulting amount is less than the recorded book value, the Bank either establishes a valuation allowance (i.e. specific reserve) as a component of the allowance for loan losses or charges off the impaired balance if it determines

16


that such amount is a confirmed loss. This method is used consistently for all segments of the portfolio. The allowance for loan losses also includes an allowance based on a loss migration analysis for each loan category on loans that are not individually evaluated for specific impairment. All loans charged-off, including TDRs charged-off, are factored into this calculation by portfolio segment.

TDRs that were modified during the period are as follows:

TDRs are classified as being in default on a case-by-case basis when they fail to be in compliance with the modified terms. There was no TDR default activity for three and nine months ending September 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014, that was restructured within the 12 month period prior to default.

Note 4 – Allowance for Loan Losses

For the September 30, 2015, allowance for loan loss determination, management implemented changes in the process used to determine the required loan loss reserve to update the Bank’s reserve methodology.  The estimated impact of this methodology change in the required reserve was approximately $1.4 million.  These changes, and a $2.1 million loan loss reserve release for the third quarter of 2015, are more fully discussed in Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.  Changes in the allowance for loan losses by segment of loans based on method of impairment for three and nine months ending September 30, 2015, were as follows:

The Company enters into deposit sweep transactions where the transaction amounts are secured by pledged securities.  These transactions consistently mature overnight from the transaction date and are governed by sweep repurchase agreements.  All sweep repurchase agreements are treated as financings secured by U.S. government agencies and collateralized mortgage-backed securities and had a carrying amount of $27.1 million at September 30, 2015, and $21.0 million at December 31, 2014. The fair value of the pledged collateral was $46.9 million at September 30, 2015, and $43.4 million at December 31, 2014.  At September 30, 2015, there were no customers with secured balances exceeding 10% of stockholders’ equity.

The Company’s borrowings at the FHLBC require the Bank to be a member and invest in the stock of the FHLBC.  Total borrowings are generally limited to the lower of 35% of total assets or 60% of the book value of certain mortgage loans.  As of September 30, 2015, the Bank had taken an advance of $35.0 million on the FHLBC stock valued at $3.5 million, collateralized by securities with a fair value of $82.7 million and loans with a principal balance of $174.1 million, which carried a FHLBC calculated combined collateral value of $172.1 million.  The Company had excess collateral of $135.8 million available to secure borrowings at September 30, 2015, additional FHLBC stock to a new total of $3. 8 million in late October, and improved immediately available funding compared to June 30, 2015.

One of the Company’s most significant borrowing relationships continued to be the $45.5 million credit facility with a correspondent bank. That credit began in January 2008 and was originally composed of a $30.5 million senior debt facility, which included $500,000 in term debt, and $45.0 million of subordinated debt.  The subordinated debt and the term debt portion of the senior debt facility mature on March 31, 2018.  The interest rate on the senior debt facility resets quarterly and at the Company’s option, is based on, either the lender’s prime rate or three-month LIBOR plus 90 basis points.  The interest rate on the subordinated debt resets quarterly, and is equal to three-month LIBOR plus 150 basis points.  The Company had no principal outstanding balance on the senior line of credit portion of the senior debt facility when it matured and was terminated.  The Company had $500,000 in principal outstanding in term debt and $45.0 million in principal outstanding in subordinated debt at both September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014.  The term debt is secured by all of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank.  The Company has made all required interest payments on the outstanding principal balance on a timely basis.

The credit facility agreement contains usual and customary provisions regarding acceleration of the senior debt upon the occurrence of an event of default by the Company under the senior debt agreement.  The senior debt agreement also contains certain customary representations and warranties, and financial covenants.  At September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained within the credit agreement.

Note 8 Junior Subordinated Debentures

The Company completed the sale of $27.5 million of cumulative trust preferred securities by its unconsolidated subsidiary, Old Second Capital Trust I in June 2003.  An additional $4.1 million of cumulative trust preferred securities were sold in July 2003.  The trust preferred securities may remain outstanding for a 30-year term but, subject to regulatory approval, can be called in whole or in part by the Company after June 30, 2008.  When not in deferral, distributions on the securities are payable quarterly at an annual rate of 7.80%.  The Company issued a new $32.6 million subordinated debenture to Old Second Capital Trust I in return for the aggregate net proceeds of this trust preferred offering.  The interest rate and payment frequency on the debenture are equivalent to the cash distribution basis on the trust preferred securities.

The Company issued an additional $25.0 million of cumulative trust preferred securities through a private placement completed by an additional, unconsolidated subsidiary, Old Second Capital Trust II, in April 2007. These trust preferred securities also mature in 30 years, but subject to the aforementioned regulatory approval, can be called in whole or in part on a quarterly basis commencing June 15, 2017.  The quarterly cash distributions on the securities are fixed at 6.77% through June 15, 2017, and float at 150 basis points over three-month LIBOR thereafter.  The Company issued a new $25.8 million subordinated debenture to Old Second Capital Trust II in return for the aggregate net proceeds of this trust preferred offering.  The interest rate and payment frequency on the debenture are equivalent to the cash distribution basis on the trust preferred securities.

20


Both of the debentures issued by the Company are disclosed on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as junior subordinated debentures and the related interest expense for each issuance is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.  As of September 30, 2015, the Company is current on the payments due on these securities.

Note 9 Equity Compensation Plans

There are stock-based awards outstanding under the Company’s 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”) and the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan,” and together with the 2008 Plan, the “Plans”).  The 2014 Plan was approved at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders.  Following approval of the 2014 Plan, no further awards will be granted under the 2008 Plan or any other Company equity compensation plan. A maximum of 375,000 shares may be issued under the 2014 Plan.  The Plan authorizes the granting of qualified stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights.  Awards may be granted to selected directors and officers or employees under the 2014 Plan at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.  As of September 30, 2015, 125,000 shares remained available for issuance under the 2014 Plan.

Total compensation cost that has been charged for the Plans was $466,000 in the first nine months of 2015.

There were no stock options granted in the third quarter of 2015 and 2014 or for the nine months ending September 30, 2015, and 2014.  All stock options are granted for a term of ten years.  There were no stock options exercised during the third quarter of 2015 or 2014 or for the nine months ending September 30, 2015, and 2014 .  There is no unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options as all stock options of the Company’s common stock have vested.

Generally, restricted stock and restricted stock units granted under the Plans vest three years from the grant date, but the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors has discretionary authority to change some terms including the amount of time until the vest date.

Awards under the 2008 Plan will become fully vested upon a merger or change in control of the Company.  Under the 2014 Plan, upon a change in control of the Company, if (i) the 2014 Plan is not an obligation of the successor entity following the change in control, or (ii) the 2014 Plan is an obligation of the successor entity following the change in control and the participant incurs an involuntary termination, then the stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards and cash incentive awards under the 2014 Plan will become fully exercisable and vested.  Performance-based awards generally will vest based upon the level of achievement of the applicable performance measures through the change in control.

The Company granted restricted stock under its equity compensation plans beginning in 2005 and it began granting restricted stock units in February 2009.  Restricted stock awards under the Plans generally entitle holders to voting and dividend rights upon grant and are subject to forfeiture until certain restrictions have lapsed including employment for a specific period.  Restricted stock units under the Plans are also subject to forfeiture until certain restrictions have lapsed including employment for a specific period, and generally entitle holders to receive dividend equivalents during the restricted period but do not entitle holders to voting rights until the restricted period ends and shares are transferred in connection with the units.

There were no restricted awards issued under the Plans during the third quarter of 2015 and 101,500 restricted awards were issued during the nine months ending September 30, 2015.  There were no restricted awards issued during the third quarter of 2014 and 184,500 restricted awards issued for the nine months ending September 30, 2014.  Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the restricted award based on the market value of the award on the issue date.

The above earnings per share calculation did not include a warrant for 815,339 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $13.43 per share, that was outstanding as of September 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014, because the warrant was anti-dilutive.  Of note, the warrant was sold at auction by the Treasury in June 2013 to a third party investor.

The Company completed the redemption of 25,669 shares of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (the “Series B Stock”) in the second quarter of 2014.  As previously disclosed, the Company completed a public offering of 15,525,000 shares of common stock in April of 2014.  Net proceeds of over $64.0 million were used to pay the accrued but unpaid interest on the Company’s  trust preferred securities or junior subordinated debentures discussed in Note 8, the accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Series B Stock and to complete the 2014 redemption of the Series B Stock.  The amount remaining after the completion of these transactions was retained at the Company for use in addressing general corporate matters.  The redemption price for such Series B Stock was 94.75% of the liquidation value of the shares and the holders of the redeemed shares agreed to forebear payment of

22


dividends due and waived any rights to such dividend upon redemption.  The Company redeemed all shares of Series B Stock held by directors of the Company on the same terms.

On January 31, 2015, the Company redeemed 15,778 shares of its Series B Stock at a redemption price equal to the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per share, together with accrued and unpaid dividends accumulated to, but excluding, the redemption date. As of December 30, 2014, there were 47,331 shares of the Series B Stock outstanding, and redeeming one-third of the Series B Stock resulted in the redemption of 15,778 shares of Series B Stock.  The redemption was successfully completed in the first quarter .

In July 2015, the Company announced that it would redeem the remaining 31,553 outstanding shares of Series B Stock on August 14, 2015 at the redemption price, equal to the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per share, together with any accrued and unpaid dividends accumulated to, but excluding, the redemption date.  The redemption was successfully completed in the third quarter. As of September 30, 2015, no shares of the Series B Stock remained outstanding . Please see the Capital section of Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations capital section for further information on this topic.

Note 11 Regulatory & Capital Matters

The Bank is subject to the risk-based capital regulatory guidelines, which include the methodology for calculating the risk-weighted Bank assets, developed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) and the other bank regulatory agencies.  In connection with the current economic environment, the Bank’s current level of nonperforming assets and the risk-based capital guidelines, the Bank’s board of directors has determined that the Bank should maintain a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio at or above eight percent (8%) and a total risk-based capital ratio at or above twelve percent (12%).  At September 30, 2015, the Bank exceeded those thresholds.

At September 30, 2015, the Bank’s Tier 1 capital leverage ratio was 11.26 %, down 76 basis points from December 31, 2014, and well above the 8.00% objective.  The Bank’s total capital ratio was 17.10% , down 163 basis points from December 31, 2014, and also well above the objective of 12.00% .

Bank holding companies are required to maintain minimum levels of capital in accordance with capital guidelines implemented by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.  The general bank and holding company capital adequacy guidelines are shown in the accompanying table, as are the capital ratios of the Company and the Bank, as of September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014.

In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking authorities issued final rules (the “Basel III Rules”) establishing more stringent regulatory capital requirements for U.S. banking institutions, which went into effect on January 1, 2015.  A detailed discussion of the Basel III Rules is included in Part I, Item 1 of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, under the heading “Supervision and Regulation.”

At September 30, 2015, the Company, on a consolidated basis, exceeded the minimum thresholds to be considered “adequately capitalized” under current regulatory defined capital ratios.  For all periods prior to 2015, all capital ratios displayed were calculated without giving effect to the final Basel III capital rules.

1 The Bank exceeded the general minimum regulatory requirements to be considered “well capitalized”.

Dividend Restrictions

In addition to the above requirements, banking regulations and capital guidelines generally limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by a bank without prior regulatory approval.  Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s profits, combined with the retained profit of the previous two years, subject to the capital requirements described above.  Pursuant to the Basel III rules that came into effect January 1, 2015, the Bank must keep a buffer of 0.625% for 2016, 1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018, and 2.5% for 2019 and thereafter of minimum capital requirements in order to avoid additional limitations on capital distributions.  The Bank has the ability and the authority to pay dividends to the Company for debt payment purposes.

As discussed in Note 8, as of September 30, 2015, the Company had $58.4 million of junior subordinated debentures held by two statutory business trusts that it controls.  The Company has the right to defer interest payments on the debentures for a period of up to 20 consecutive quarters, and elected to begin such a deferral in August 2010.  However, all deferred interest must be paid before the Company may pay dividends on its common stock.  In the second quarter of 2014, the Company terminated the deferral period and paid all accumulated and unpaid interest on the junior subordinated debentures which totaled $19.7 million.  The Company is currently paying interest as it comes due.

Note 12 Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an 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.  The fair value hierarchy established by the Company also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.  Three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are:

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

24


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

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

Transfers between levels are deemed to have occurred at the end of the reporting period.  For the quarters ended September 30, 2015, and 2014 there were no significant transfers between levels.

The majority of securities (available-for-sale and held-to-maturity) are valued by external pricing services or dealer market participants and are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.  Both market and income valuation approaches are utilized.  The Company evaluates the methodologies used by the external pricing services or dealer market participants to develop the fair values to determine whether the results of the valuations are representative of an exit price in the Company’s principal markets and an appropriate representation of fair value.  The Company uses the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

·

Government-sponsored agency debt securities are primarily priced using available market information through processes such as benchmark curves, market valuations of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing.

·

Other government-sponsored agency securities, MBS and some of the actively traded real estate mortgage investment conduits and collateralized mortgage obligations are priced using available market information including benchmark yields, prepayment speeds, spreads, volatility of similar securities and trade date.

·

State and political subdivisions are largely grouped by characteristics (e.g., geographical data and source of revenue in trade dissemination systems).  Because some securities are not traded daily and due to other grouping limitations, active market quotes are often obtained using benchmarking for like securities.

·

From December 31, 2013, to December 31, 2014, the Company utilized pricing data from a nationally recognized valuation firm providing specialized securities valuation services for auction rate asset-backed securities.  Beginning March 31, 2015, these securities are priced using market spreads, cash flows, prepayment speeds, and loss analytics.  Therefore, the valuations of auction rate asset-backed securities are considered Level 2 valuations.

·

During the third quarter of 2014, asset-backed collateralized loan obligations were acquired and priced using data from a pricing matrix supported by our bond accounting service provider and are therefore considered Level 2 valuations.

·

Residential mortgage loans eligible for sale in the secondary market are carried at fair market value.  The fair value of loans held-for-sale is determined using quoted secondary market prices.

·

Lending related commitments to fund certain residential mortgage loans, e.g. residential mortgage loans with locked interest rates to be sold in the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors as well as forward commitments for future delivery of MBS are considered derivatives.  Fair values are estimated based on observable changes in mortgage interest rates including prices for MBS from the date of the commitment and do not typically involve significant judgments by management.

·

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income.  The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income to derive the resultant value.  The Company is able to compare the valuation model inputs, such as the discount rate, prepayment speeds, weighted average delinquency and foreclosure/bankruptcy rates  to widely available published industry data for reasonableness.

·

Interest rate swap positions, both assets and liabilities, are based on valuation pricing models using an income approach reflecting readily observable market parameters such as interest rate yield curves.

·

Both the credit valuation reserve on current interest rate swap positions and on receivables related to unwound customer interest rate swap positions were determined based upon management’s estimate of the amount of credit risk exposure, including by available collateral protection and/or by utilizing an estimate related to a probability of default as indicated in the Bank credit policy.  Such adjustments would result in a Level 3 classification.

·

The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is essentially based on recent real estate appraisals.  These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach.  Adjustments are made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to reflect differences between the available comparable sales and income data.  Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

·

Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as OREO are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell.  Fair values are based on third party appraisals of the property, resulting in a Level 3 classification.  In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized.

The $118,000 on the state and political subdivisions line at September 30, 2015, under Level 3 represents a security from a small, local municipality.  Given the small dollar amount and size of the municipality involved, this is categorized as Level 3 based on the payment stream received by the Company from the municipality.  That payment stream is otherwise an unobservable input.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis:

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP.  These assets consist of impaired loans and OREO.  For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively, the following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each valuation and the carrying value of the related assets:

2 OREO is measured at the lower of carrying or fair value less costs to sell, and had a net carrying amount of $32.0 million, which is made up of the outstanding balance of $53.0 million, net of a valuation allowance of $19.2 million and participations of $1.8 million, at December 31, 2014.

The Company also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.  These assets include OREO and impaired loans.  The Company has estimated the fair values of these assets based primarily on Level 3 inputs.  OREO and impaired loans are generally valued using the fair value of collateral provided by third party appraisals.  These valuations include assumptions related to cash flow projections, discount rates, and recent comparable sales.  The numerical range of unobservable inputs for these valuation assumptions are not meaningful.

Note 13 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Derivative Transactions

To meet the financing needs of its customers, the Bank, as a subsidiary of the Company, is a party to various financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business.  These off-balance-sheet financial instruments include commitments to originate and sell loans as well as financial standby, performance standby and commercial letters of credit.  The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet.  The Bank’s exposure to credit loss for loan commitments and letters of credit is represented by the dollar amount of those instruments.  Management generally uses the same credit policies and collateral requirements in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Interest Rate Swap Designated as a Cash Flow Hedge

The Company entered into a forward starting interest rate swap on August 18, 2015, with an effective date of June 15, 2017.  This transaction had a notional amount totaling $25.8 million as of September 30, 2015, was designated as a cash flow hedge of certain junior subordinated debentures and was determined to be fully effective during the period presented.  As such, no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income.  Therefore, the aggregate fair value of the swap is recorded in other assets with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income. The amount included in other comprehensive income would be reclassified to current earnings should all or a portion of the hedge no longer be considered effective. The Company expects the hedge to remain fully effective during the remaining term of the swap.  The Bank will pay the counterparty a fixed rate and receive a floating

28


rate based on three month LIBOR.  Management concluded that it would be advantageous to enter this transaction given that the Company has trust preferred securities that will change from fixed rate to floating rate on June 15, 2017.  The cash flow hedge has a maturity date of June 15, 2037.

Other Interest Rate Swaps

The Bank also has interest rate derivative positions to assist with risk management that are not designated as hedging instruments.  These derivative positions relate to transactions in which the Bank enters an interest rate swap with a client (or in the case above the Company) while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with another financial institution.  Per contractual requirements with the correspondent financial institution, the Bank had $2.0 million in investment securities pledged to support interest rate swap activity with two correspondent financial institutions at September 30, 2015 .  The Bank had $3.0 million in investment securities pledged to support interest rate swap activity with three correspondent financial institutions at December 31, 2014 .

In connection with each transaction, the Bank agreed to pay interest to the client on a notional amount at a variable interest rate and receive interest from the client on the same notional amount at a fixed interest rate.  At the same time, the Bank agreed to pay another financial institution the same fixed interest rate on the same notional amount and receive the same variable interest rate on the same notional amount.  The transaction allows the client to convert a variable rate loan to a fixed rate loan and is part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy.  Because the Bank acts as an intermediary for the client, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts offset each other and do not generally affect the results of operations.  Fair value measurements include an assessment of credit risk related to the client’s ability to perform on their contract position, however, and valuation estimates related to that exposure are discussed in Note 12 above.  At September 30, 2015, the notional amount of non-hedging interest rate swaps was $ 17.7 million with a weighted average maturity of 4.5 years.  At December 31, 2014, the notional amount of non-hedging interest rate swaps was $16.3 million with a weighted average maturity of 2.7 years.  The Bank offsets derivative assets and liabilities that are subject to a master netting arrangement.

The Bank also grants mortgage loan interest rate lock commitments to borrowers, subject to normal loan underwriting standards.  The interest rate risk associated with these loan interest rate lock commitments is managed with contracts for future deliveries of loans as well as selling forward mortgage-backed securities contracts.  Loan interest rate lock commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.  Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  Commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held-for-sale and forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans or forward MBS contracts are considered derivative instruments and changes in the fair value are recorded to mortgage banking revenue. Fair values are estimated based on observable changes in mortgage interest rates including mortgage-backed securities prices from the date of the commitment.

The following table presents derivatives not designated as hedging instruments as of September 30, 2015, and periodic changes in the values of the interest rate swaps are reported in other noninterest income.  Periodic changes in the value of the forward contracts related to mortgage loan origination are reported in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans.

The Bank also issues letters of credit, which are conditional commitments that guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.  The credit risk involved and collateral obtained in issuing letters of credit are essentially the same as that involved in extending loan commitments to our customers.  In addition to customer related commitments, the Company is responsible for letters of credit commitments that relate to properties held in OREO.  The following table represents the Company’s contractual commitments due to letters of credit as of September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014.

Note 14 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values approximate carrying amount for all items except those described in the following table.  Investment security fair values are based upon market prices or dealer quotes, and if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security.  The carrying value of FHLBC stock approximates fair value as the stock is nonmarketable and can only be sold to the FHLBC or another member institution at par. During the years ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, the Company participated in multiple redemptions with the FHLBC and, using the redemption values as the carrying value, FHLBC stock is carried at a Level 2 fair value since December 31, 2012.  The Company had redemptions of $1.2 million in the year 2014.  The Company redeemed $787,000 in April of 2015.  Fair values of loans were estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics, such as type and fixed or variable interest rate terms.  Cash flows were discounted using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar ratings and for similar maturities.  The fair value of time deposits is estimated using discounted future cash flows at current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.  The fair values of borrowings were estimated based on interest rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.  The fair value of off balance sheet volume is not considered material.

Note 15 – Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B Stock”)

The Series B Stock was issued as part of the Treasury’s Troubled Asset Relief Program and Capital Purchase Program.  The Series B Stock qualified as Tier 1 capital and paid cumulative dividends on the liquidation preference amount on a quarterly basis at a rate of 5% per annum for the first five years, and 9% per annum thereafter effective in February 2014.  Concurrent with issuing the Series B Stock, the Company issued to the Treasury a ten year warrant to purchase 815,339 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $13.43 per share.

31


Subsequent to the Company’s receipt of the $73.0 million in proceeds from the Treasury in the first quarter of 2009, the Company allocated the proceeds between the Series B Stock and the warrant that was issued. The Company recorded the warrant as equity, and the allocation was based on their relative fair values in accordance with accounting guidance.  The fair value was determined for both the Series B Stock and the warrant as part of the allocation process in the amounts of $68.2 million and $4.8 million, respectively.

The Treasury sold all of the Series B Stock held to third parties, including certain of our directors, in auctions that were completed in the first quarter of 2013.  The Treasury also sold the warrant to a third party at a subsequent auction.

In the second quarter of 2014, the Company completed redemption of 25,669 shares of its Series B Stock at a price equal to 94.75% of liquidation value, or an aggregate of $24.3 million, and the holders of shares agreed to forebear payment of dividends due and waived any rights to such dividends upon redemption.

On December 30, 2014, the Company provided notice that it was redeeming approximately one-third of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Stock.  The effective date for the redemption was January 31, 2015, and the redemption price was the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per share, together with any accrued and unpaid dividends accumulated to, but excluding, the redemption date. As of December 30, 2014, there were 47,331 shares of the Series B Stock outstanding, and redeeming one-third of the Series B Stock resulted in the redemption of 15,778 shares of Series B Stock.  The redemption was successfully completed in the first quarter.  As of March 31, 2015, 31,553 shares of the Series B Stock remained outstanding .

The Company carried $47.3 million and $72.9 million of Series B Stock in total stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively.  In July 2015, the Company announced that it would redeem the remaining 31,553 outstanding shares of Series B Stock on August 14, 2015 at the redemption price, equal to the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per share, together with any accrued and unpaid dividends accumulated to, but excluding, the redemption date.  The redemption was successfully completed in the third quarter of 2015.  As of September 30, 2015, no shares of the Series B Stock remained outstanding .

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation s

Overview

The Company is a financial services company with its main headquarters located in Aurora, Illinois.  The Company is the holding company of Old Second National Bank (the “Bank”), a national banking organization headquartered in Aurora, Illinois that provides commercial and retail banking services, as well as a full complement of trust and wealth management services.  The Company has offices located in Cook, Kane, Kendall, DeKalb, DuPage, LaSalle and Will counties in Illinois. The following management’s discussion and analysis presents information concerning our financial condition as of September 30, 2015 , as compared to December 31, 2014 , and the results of operations for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2015 , and 2014 . This discussion and analysis is best read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements as well as the financial and statistical data appearing elsewhere in this report and our 2014 Form 10-K.  The results of operations for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 , are not necessarily indicative of future results.

Our commendable and flexible community banking franchise has emerged from the difficult years following 2008 and is positioned for further success as an enduring entity following our strong fundamental approach.  We expect to work through difficult industry and regulatory developments which make it more challenging to attain the levels of profitability and growth we experienced prior to 2008.  However, as we look to provide value to our customers and the communities in which we operate, we still find at best, sluggish growth in our local markets.  While progress is being made, we see continued uncertainty and a widespread reluctance by individuals and businesses to invest for their growth.  We are encouraged by sustained quality in our credit performance as nonperforming loan totals continue to decline.  As the Company’s residential mortgage business experienced strong performance in the first nine months of 2015, our other services continued to encounter fierce competition in our chosen communities.

Results of Operations

Management has remained vigilant in analyzing loan portfolio quality and making decisions to charge-off loans.  The third quarter review of the loan portfolio concluded that the reserve for loan and lease loss was adequate and appropriate for estimable losses at September 30, 2015.  A loan loss reserve release of $2.1 million was recorded in the third quarter of 2015.  This compared to a $2.3 million loan loss reserve release for the second quarter of 2015 and neither a provision nor a release in the first quarter of 2015.

Net income before taxes of $6.3 million in the third quarter compares to $6.6 million in the second quarter of 2015.  When compared to the second quarter of 2015, the third quarter of 2015 reflected lower levels of revenue and noninterest expense and a comparable loan loss reserve release.  Noninterest income was impacted by a $1.1 million writedown on a closed branch in Batavia, Illinois and good, but reduced results on residential mortgage revenue.  Noninterest expense decreased on a linked quarter basis largely on still elevated but lower expenses related to OREO.

Third quarter earnings per share of $0.12 per diluted share is unchanged from the second quarter of 2015.  All information reflects management actions to redeem outstanding Series B Stock (with resulting benefit in net income available to common stockholders) both in 2014 and in 2015.

Net income before taxes of $18.3 million for the first nine months of 2015 compares to $11.1 million for the same period in 2014.  Year to date results for 2015 show improved net interest income, a larger loan loss reserve release and reduced noninterest expense.  Noninterest expenses are flat to down in all categories, most notably in amortization of core deposit assets.  This expense came to a total of $1.2 million for the first nine months of 2014 compared to no expense in 2015 as the core deposit asset was fully amortized.

Net Interest Income

Net interest and dividend income decreased $132,000 from $14.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, to $14.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.  Average earning assets for the third quarter of 2015 decreased $22.7 million from the second quarter of 2015 to a total of $1.83 billion.  Both average total securities and average loans declined in the third quarter compared to the second quarter.

For the nine month period, net interest income improved year over year by $2.4 million to a total of $44.3 million.  A modest increase of 1.1% in interest income reflects slightly higher interest and fees on loans somewhat offset by lower interest revenue from the Bank’s securities portfolio.  Interest expense reflects sharply lower interest on time deposits and lower interest expense on the Company’s junior subordinated debentures.  Average earning assets increased for the period with yield essentially unchanged.  Average interest bearing liabilities were essentially unchanged at a lower cost.  As loan volume continues to develop slowly, management increased available-for-sale securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

The net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis), expressed as a percentage of average earning assets, decreased slightly from 3.25% in the second quarter of 2015 to 3.22% in the third quarter of 2015. The average tax-equivalent yield on earning assets was essentially unchanged at 3.68% for the third quarter compared to 3.69% in the second quarter of 2015.  For the same comparative period, the cost of funds on interest bearing liabilities was essentially unchanged at 0.62% for the third quarter compared to 0.61% for the second quarter.

Period loan yields are reflective of competitive pressures on new loan yield.  Additionally, management continued to see competitive pressure to reduce interest rates on loans retained at renewal.

For the nine month comparative period, average earning assets show a modest increase with a slightly lower yield.  Interest bearing liabilities are essentially unchanged but at a cost of 0.62% in 2015 compared to 0.79% in 2014.  Net interest margin improved to 3.25% for the nine months of 2015 compared to 3.14% for the same period in 2014.

M anagement, in order to evaluate and measure performance, uses certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios.  This includes tax-equivalent net interest income (including its individual components) and net interest margin (including its individual components) to total average interest earning assets.  Management believes that these measures and ratios provide users of the financial information with a more accurate view of the performance of the interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and of the Company’s operating efficiency for comparison purposes.  Other financial holding companies may define or calculate these measures and ratios differently.  See the tables and notes below for supplemental data and the corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015, June 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014 .

The following tables set forth certain information relating to the Company’s average consolidated balance sheets and reflect the yield on average earning assets and cost of average liabilities for the periods indicated.  Dividing the related interest, on an annualized basis, by the average balance of assets or liabilities derives the disclosed rates.  Average balances are derived from daily balances.  For purposes of discussion, net interest income and net interest income to total earning assets on the following tables have been adjusted to a non-GAAP tax equivalent (“TE”) basis using a marginal rate of 35% to more appropriately compare returns on tax-exempt loans and securities to other earning assets.

Asset Quality

The Company recorded a loan loss reserve release of $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2015 .  By comparison, the Company recognized a $2.3 million loan loss reserve release in the second quarter of 2015.  The provision for loan loss creates a reserve for probable and estimable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.  On a quarterly basis, management estimates the amount required and records the appropriate provision or release to maintain an adequate reserve for all potential and estimated loan losses. Management made changes in the methodology used to calculate the September 30, 2015, required loan loss reserve.  Those methodology changes are described in the Allowance for Loan and Lease Loss section of this Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Nonperforming loans decreased to $18.5 million at September 30, 2015, from $19.3 million at June 30, 2015. Net recoveries of $392,000 in the third quarter of 2015 compares to net charge-offs of $560,000 for the second quarter of 2015.  The distribution of the Company’s remaining nonperforming loans is included in the following table.

Classified loans include nonaccrual, performing troubled debt restructurings and all other loans considered substandard.  Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by either the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged to secure the loan, if any.  These loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and carry the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if deficiencies remain uncorrected.  Classified loans in the third quarter increased on one sizable relationship.

Classified assets include both classified loans and OREO.  Management monitors a ratio of classified assets to the sum of Bank Tier 1 capital and the allowance for loan and lease loss reserve as another measure of overall change in loan related asset quality. Beginning in 2015, for the quarter end ratio calculation, management has applied the capital rules as announced effective January 1, 2015, also known as the Basel III regulations, to calculate the Bank Tier 1 capital portion of this ratio. This ratio ended at 20.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

The coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 89.6% as of September 30, 2015 , down from 95.0% as of June 30, 2015 , but improved from 79.9% as of December 31, 2014 . After a third party review of the methodology used to determine the required loan loss reserve, management revised the methodology for September 30, 2015, reporting.  These revisions were implemented to update the methodology in light of developments in the Bank loan portfolio. One methodology change will reflect use of average balances in historical required reserve calculations to avoid loss rate impact if loan balances increase or decrease significantly.  Previously, period end balances were used in the required reserve calculation.  A second methodology change will negate quarterly net recovery data in the historical loss rate experience calculations.  The previous treatment of net recoveries was seen as a less meaningful treatment of current historical loss experience. The last methodology change replaces the commercial real estate pool management factor with a collateral calculation on balances for special mention and problem accruing loans in the period.  This methodology change more accurately reflects all portfolio risk. All calculations conform to U. S. generally accepted accounting principles. After a review of the adequacy of the loan loss reserve at September 30, 2015 , management concluded that, for the third quarter of 2015 a loan loss reserve release of $2.1 million was appropriate.  When measured as a percentage of loans outstanding, the total allowance for loan losses decreased from 1.9% of total loans as of December 31, 2014 , to 1.6% of total loans at June 30, 2015, to 1.5% at September 30, 2015 .  In management’s judgment, an adequate a llowance for estimated losses has been established for inherent losses at September 30, 2015 .  However, there can be no assurance that actual losses will not exceed the estimated amounts in the future.

Other Real Estate Owned

OREO at September 30, 2015 , ended at $24.5 million.  This compares to $32.0 million at both June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014 .  New additions to the OREO portfolio in third quarter of 2015 were modest while valuation writedowns continued with an expense of $1.1 million in the quarter and $3.8 million in the nine month period.

In management’s judgment, the property valuation allowance as established presents OREO at current estimates of fair value less estimated costs to sell; however, there can be no assurance that additional losses will not be incurred on disposal or upon update to valuation in the future.  Of note, properties valued in total at $2.7 million, or approximately 11.1%, of total OREO at September 30, 2015, have been in OREO for five years or more.

Noninterest income experienced no significant linked quarter improvements in the third quarter of 2015.  The Company continued to experience good mortgage loan origination results by operating effectively in a favorable market environment.  However, valuation adjustments in the third quarter detracted from total residential mortgage banking revenue.  Income recorded from the change in cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance decreased on a linked quarter basis in light of market declines in investment value.  Other noninterest income for the third quarter of 2015 is impacted by the impairment charge related to the closing of a Bank branch in Batavia, Illinois.  Year over year third quarter noninterest income is down 32.1% with all categories essentially unchanged, reduced or down sharply.

40


For the nine month period, 2015 total noninterest income is $240,000 lower in 2015 compared to 2014. Improved results in residential mortgage banking revenue and benefit from a $917,000 payment received from a service provider in the first quarter of 2015 are essentially offset by the branch closing impairment charge mentioned above and reduced results in virtually all other categories .

The efficiency ratio shown in the table above is calculated as noninterest expense excluding core deposit intangible amortization and OREO expenses divided by the sum of net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis, total noninterest income less net gains and losses on securities and with a tax equivalent adjustment on the increase in cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance.

Noninterest expense decreased on a linked quarter basis reflecting reduced bonus accrual expense, lower levels of residential mortgage commission expense, improved but still elevated OREO expense and reduced other noninterest expenses.  Expenses were flat or down in the third quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 for most categories.  Third quarter 2015 total noninterest expense is 11.4% lower than the third quarter 2014 total.

For the nine month period, total noninterest expense was $2.6 million or 4.7% lower in the 2015 period compared to the same period in 2014.  Most notably, expense related to amortization of the core deposit asset intangible has ended leading to a $1.2 million year over year expense reduction.  Virtually all other categories are flat to lower in 2015 compared to 2014 on expense management controls.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded a tax expense of $2.4 million on $6.3 million pre-tax income for the third quarter of 2015.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, tax expense was composed of $262,000 in current income tax expense and $6.5 million in deferred income tax expense .

There have been no significant changes in the Company’s ability to utilize the deferred tax assets through September 30, 2015. The Company has no valuation reserve on the deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2015.

On September 12, 2012, the Company and the Bank, as rights agent, entered into the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement and Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the “Tax Benefits Plan”).  The Tax Benefits Plan amended and restated the Rights Agreement, dated September 17, 2002.  The purpose of the Tax Benefits Plan is to protect the Company’s deferred tax asset against an unsolicited ownership change, which could significantly limit the Company’s ability to utilize its deferred tax assets.  The Tax Benefits Plan was ratified by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s 2013 annual meeting.  In connection with the public offering that closed in the second quarter of 2014, the Company amended the Tax Benefits Plan on April 3, 2014, to allow two identified investors who were purchasers in the offering to purchase more than 5% of the Company’s common stock. In the third quarter of 2015, the

41


Company filed a second amendment to the Tax Benefits plan.  The second amendment provides rights holders additional exercise choices.  The amendment is subject to ratification by the Company's stockholders at the Company's 2016 annual meeting.

Financial Condition

Total assets decreased $15.5 million from June 30, 2015, to $2.05 billion at September 30, 2015, on lower loan outstandings and normal operating changes.  Total assets at September 30, 2015, are slightly lower than recorded at December 31, 2014.  Loans decreased by $26.0 million in three months ended September 30, 2015, and $26.4 million compared to December 31, 2014, as management continued to emphasize credit quality under an overarching relationship lending program.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, loan balances were reduced by net loan charge-off activity and the movement to OREO of collateral that previously secured loans.  OREO was $24.5 million at September 30, 2015 , compared to $32.0 million at both June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014.  Available-for-sale securities increased by $9.0 million in the third quarter and $23.4 million since December 31, 2014.  Held-to-maturity securities decreased modestly in the three and nine months ending September 30, 2015 .  Notably, available-for-sale securities are up sharply from $329.8 million at June 30, 2014.

Loans

Third quarter loan production did not improve from recent trends leading to the overall decrease in total loans.  Except for lease financing receivables, all major loan categories are also essentially unchanged or down since December 31, 2014.  Challenging economic circumstances, restricted demand and an intensely competitive environment served to temper overall loan growth.

The quality of the loan portfolio incorporates not only Company credit decisions but also the economic health of the communities in which the Company operates.  The local economies continue to experience the economic headwinds that have been subject of extensive discussion on state, national and international levels.  The uneven and occasionally adverse economic conditions continue to affect the Midwest region in particular and financial markets generally.  As the Company is located in a corridor with significant open space and undeveloped real estate, real estate lending (including commercial, residential, and construction) has been and continues to be a sizeable portion of the portfolio.  These categories comprised 87.2% of the portfolio as of September 30, 2015, and as of June 30, 2015, compared to 87.6% of the portfolio as of December 31, 2014 .  The Company continues to oversee and manage its loan portfolio in accordance with interagency guidance on risk management.

Total deposits were $1.72 billion on September 30, 2015.  That amount reflects an increase from total deposits of $1.71 billion at June 30, 2015, and $1.69 billion at year end 2014.  Total transaction accounts (Demand / Savings / NOW / Money Market) were essentially unchanged in the third quarter while time deposits or certificates of deposit reflect a modest increase for the period.

At September 30, 2015, one of the Company’s most significant borrowing relationships continued to be the $45.5 million credit facility with a correspondent bank. The subordinated debt and the term debt portion of the senior debt facility mature on March 31, 2018.  The interest rate on the senior debt facility resets quarterly and at the Company’s option, is based on either the lender’s prime rate or three-month LIBOR plus 90 basis points.  The interest rate on the subordinated debt resets quarterly, and is equal to three-month LIBOR plus 150 basis points.  The Company had $500,000 in principal outstanding in term debt and $45.0 million in principal outstanding in subordinated debt at both June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014.  The Company has made all required interest payments on the outstanding principal amounts on a timely basis.

The credit facility agreement contains usual and customary provisions regarding acceleration of the senior debt upon the occurrence of an event of default by the Company under the senior debt agreement.  The senior debt agreement also contains certain

43


customary representations and warranties, and financial covenants.  At September 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained within the credit agreement.

The Company decreased its securities sold under repurchase agreements to $27.1 million at September 30, 2015, from $32.4 million at June 30, 2015, but increased from $21.0 million at December 31, 2014.  The Company had taken an advance from Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago of $45.0 million at December 31, 2014, $20.0 million at June 30, 2015 , and $35.0 million at September 30, 2015.

The Company is also obligated on $58.4 million of junior subordinated debentures related to the trust preferred securities issued by its two statutory trust subsidiaries, Old Second Capital Trust I and Old Second Capital Trust II.  In April 2014, the Company concluded a successful capital raise and used some of the capital raise proceeds to pay interest accrued but previously unpaid on the trust preferred securities.  The Company is current on all payments due on these securities.

Capital

As of September 30, 2015 , total stockholders’ equity was $153.6 million, a decrease from both $185.2 million at June 30, 2015, and $194.2 million as of December 31, 2014 .  These decreases are directly attributable to the redemption of the Company’s Series B Stock completed in 2015 offset by current year earnings.

On April 21, 2014, the Company paid the accumulated and unpaid interest on the trust preferred securities and terminated the previously announced deferral period.  In 2015, the Company paid all scheduled payments.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Treasury announced the continuation of auctions of the Series B Stock that was issued through the Capital Purchase Program and the Company was informed that the Series B Stock would be auctioned.  The auction of the Company’s Series B Stock was completed in the first quarter 2013 and all of the Series B Stock held by Treasury was sold to third parties, including certain of our directors.  Pursuant to the terms of the Series B Stock, the dividends paid on the Series B Stock increased from 5% to 9% in February 2014.  The Company completed the redemption of 25,669 shares of its Series B Stock in the second quarter of 2014 using the proceeds of the 15,525,000 share common stock offering of April, 2014.  On December 30, 2014, the Company provided notice that it was redeeming approximately one-third of the remaining outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Stock.  This redemption of 15,778 shares of Series B Stock was completed in the first quarter of 2015.  As of both March 31, 2015, and June 30, 2015, 31,553 shares of the Series B Stock were outstanding.

On July 14, 2015, the Company provided notice that it was redeeming the remaining 31,553 issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B stock. The effective date for the redemption was August 14, 2015, and the redemption price was the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per share, together with any accrued and unpaid dividends accumulated to, but excluding, the redemption date . The redemption was successfully completed in the third quarter.  As of September 3 0 , 2015, no shares of the Series B Stock remain outstanding . After this redemption, the Company’s total stockholders’ equity continue s to include $4.8 million to reflect the value of a ten year warrant to purchase shares of its common stock (exercise price of $13.43 per share) issued in January 2009 as part of the original Series B issuance.  A discussion of the 2009 issuance, including this warrant, is included in Item 7 . Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , under the heading “Capital”.

The Company’s non-GAAP tangible common equity to tangible assets and the Tier 1 common equity to risk weighted assets were 7.50% and 10.26%, respectively at September 30, 2015, compared to 7.44% and 9.82% at June 30, 2015, and 7.12% and 6.80%, respectively, at December 31, 2014 .  The issuance of 15,525,000 common shares net of repurchasing Series B Stock in 2014 and additional Series B stock repurchased in 2015 resulted in a positive impact on the regulatory ratios and the non-GAAP ratios noted above.  All capital ratios and regulatory capital information for 2015 give full effect to the Basel III capital regulations in effect as of January 1, 2015.  All other capital ratios and regulatory capital information for other periods reflects the regulatory regulations in effect for the relevant time period.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Liquidity and Market Risk

Liquidity is the Company’s ability to fund operations, to meet depositor withdrawals, to provide for customers’ credit needs, and to meet maturing obligations and existing commitments.  The liquidity of the Company principally depends on cash flows from operating activities, investment in and maturity of assets, changes in balances of deposits and borrowings, and its ability to borrow funds.  The Company monitors the borrowing capacity at the FHLBC as part of its liquidity management process as supervised by the Asset and Liability Committee and reviewed by the board of directors.

Net cash inflows from operating activities were $15.3 million during the first nine months of 2015, compared with net cash outflows of $14.4 million in the same period in 2014.  Proceeds from sales of loans held-for-sale, net of funds used to originate loans held-for-sale, were a source of inflows for the first nine months of 2015 and 2014.  Interest paid, net of interest received, combined with changes in other assets and liabilities were a source of outflows for of the first nine months of 2015 and 2014.  Management of investing and financing activities, as well as market conditions, determines the level and the stability of net interest cash flows.  Management’s policy is to mitigate the impact of changes in market interest rates to the extent possible, as part of the balance sheet management process.

Net cash inflows from investing activities were $12.7 million in the first nine months of 2015, compared to net cash outflows of $34.4 million in the same period in 2014.  In the first nine months of 2015, securities transactions accounted for net outflows of $17.3 million, and net principal received on loans accounted for net inflows of $18.4 million.  In the first nine months of 2014, securities transactions accounted for net inflows of $7.2 million, and net principal disbursed on loans accounted for net outflows of $53.0 million.  Proceeds from sales of OREO accounted for $12.3 million and $12.7 million in investing cash inflows for the first nine months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Net cash outflows from financing activities in the first nine months of 2015 were $18.4 million, compared with net cash inflows of $45.2 million in the first nine months of 2014.  Redemption of 47,331 shares of Series B Stock and dividends paid on Series B Stock accounted for net cash outflows of $49.7 million in the first nine months of 2015.  Net deposit inflows in the first nine months of 2015 were $35.4 million compared to net deposit outflows of $25.4 million in the first nine months of 2014.  Other short-term borrowings had net cash outflows related to FHLBC advances, of $10.0 million in the first nine months of 2015 and inflows of $35.0 million in the first nine months of 2014.  Changes in securities sold under repurchase agreements accounted for $6.0 million and $6.9 million in net inflows in the first nine months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Interest Rate Risk

As part of its normal operations, the Company is subject to interest-rate risk on the assets it invests in (primarily loans and securities) and the liabilities it funds with (primarily customer deposits and borrowed funds), as well as its ability to manage such risk.  Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the fair market values of the Company’s financial instruments, cash flows, and net interest income.  Like most financial institutions, the Company has an exposure to changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates.

Interest rates through the first nine months of 2015 have continued at historically low levels.  Market expectations about interest rate increases later in 2015 or early 2016 are varied given uncertain domestic and international economic conditions.  The Company manages interest rate risk within guidelines established by policy which limits the amount of rate exposure.  In practice, interest rate risk exposure has been and is maintained well within those guidelines and does not pose a material risk to the future earnings of the Company.

The Company manages various market risks in its normal course of operations, including credit, liquidity, and interest-rate risk.  Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Company’s business activities and operations.  In addition, since the Company does not hold a trading portfolio, it is not exposed to significant market risk from trading activities.  The Company’s interest rate risk exposures from September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014 , are outlined in the table below.

The Company's net income can be significantly influenced by a variety of external factors, including: overall economic conditions, policies and actions of regulatory authorities, the amounts of and rates at which assets and liabilities reprice, variances in prepayment of loans and securities other than those that are assumed, early withdrawal of deposits, exercise of call options on borrowings or securities, competition, a general rise or decline in interest rates, changes in the slope of the yield-curve, changes in historical relationships between indices (such as LIBOR and prime), and balance sheet growth or contraction.  The Company's ALCO seeks to manage interest rate risk under a variety of rate environments by structuring the Company's balance sheet and off-balance sheet positions, which includes interest rate swap derivatives as discussed in Note 13 of the financial statements included in this quarterly report.  The Company monitors and manages this risk within approved policy limits.

The Company utilizes simulation analysis to quantify the impact of various rate scenarios on net interest income.  Specific cash flows, repricing characteristics, and embedded options of the assets and liabilities held by the Company are incorporated into the simulation model.  Earnings at risk is calculated by comparing the net interest income of a stable interest rate environment to the net

46


interest income of different interest rate environments to determine the percentage change.  Significant declines in interest rates that occurred during the first half of 2012 have made it impossible to calculate valid interest rate scenarios for rate declines of 1.0% or more, a situation that continues to date. As of December 2014, the Company had modest amounts of earnings gains (in both dollars and percentage) should interest rates rise.  The gains in the rising rate scenarios increased significantly as of September 2015, due to (1) an interest rate swap to fix the rate on the Company's Old Second Capital Trust II Preferred debt when it changes to floating rate debt in June 2017, (2) a shift to more adjustable-rate loans in the loan portfolio and (3) increases in adjustable-rate securities in the Company's investment portfolio.  Management considers the current level of interest rate risk to be low, but intends to continue closely monitoring changes in that risk in case corrective actions might be needed in the future.

The following table summarizes the effect on annual income before income taxes based upon an immediate increase or decrease in interest rates of 0.5%, 1%, and 2% assuming no change in the slope of the yield curve.  The -2% and -1% sections of the table do not show model changes for those magnitudes of decrease due to the low interest rate environment over the relevant time periods.

The amounts and assumptions used in the simulation model should not be viewed as indicative of expected actual results.  Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.  The above results do not take into account any management action to mitigate potential risk.
