The SBLF Preferred Stock was issued pursuant to the SBLF program, a $30 billion fund established under the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 that was created to encourage lending to small business by providing capital to qualified community banks with assets of less than $10 billion.
The SBLF Preferred Stock qualified as Tier 1 capital. The SBLF Preferred Stock was entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends, payable quarterly, on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2011. The dividend rate, as a percentage of the liquidation amount, fluctuated on a quarterly basis during the first 10 quarters during which the SBLF Preferred Stock was outstanding, based upon changes in the Bank's level of Qualified Small Business Lending (QBSL), as defined in the Purchase Agreement. Based upon the increase in the Bank's level of QBSL over the baseline level calculated under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the dividend rate for the initial dividend period was set at 2.8155%. For the second through ninth calendar quarters, the dividend rate was adjusted to between one percent (1%) and five percent (5%) per annum, to reflect the amount of change in the Bank's level of QBSL. For the tenth calendar quarter through four and one half years after issuance, the dividend rate was fixed at between one percent (1%) and seven percent (7%) based upon the increase in QBSL as compared to the baseline. After four and one half years from issuance, the dividend rate increased to 9% (including a quarterly lending incentive fee of 0.5%).
As required by the Purchase Agreement, $9,635,000 of the proceeds from the sale of the SBLF Preferred Stock was used to redeem the 9,550 shares of the Company's Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock,
Series A issued in 2008 to the Treasury in the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), plus the accrued dividends owed on those preferred shares.

Each of these markets may also serves a fewserve other communities just outside these county borders which do not havethe area described, but without a notable impact on the demographics of the market area. The Bank'sBank’s east and south regions, and part of the northwest region. are generally rural in nature with economies supported by manufacturing activity, agriculture (livestock, dairy, poultry, rice, timber, soybeans, wheat, melons, corn, and cotton), healthcare, and education. Large employers include hospitals, manufacturers, school districts, and colleges.

The Bank faces strong competition in attracting deposits (its primary source of lendable funds) and originating loans. At June 30, 2017,The most recent market share data by the FDIC reflected that the Bank was one of 2728 bank or saving association groups located in its east region competing for approximately $5.2$7.8 billion in deposits at FDIC-insured institutions, one of 3544 bank or saving association groups located in its south region (eight(13 of these institutions overlap with the Bank's east region)Bank’s other regions) competing for $7.0$12.3 billion in deposits, and one of 4043 bank or savings association groups located in its west region (13(19 of these overlap with the Bank's east or southBank’s other regions) competing for $9.6$17.0 billion in deposits, one of 60 bank or savings association groups located in its north region (24 of these overlap with the Bank’s other regions) competing for $97.5 billion in deposits, and one of 107 bank or savings association groups located in its northwest region (six of these overlap with the Bank’s other regions) competing for $79.1 billion in deposits. Competitors for deposits include commercial banks, credit unions, digital payment applications, money market funds, and other investment alternatives, such as mutual funds, full service and discount broker-dealers, equity markets, brokerage accounts and government securities. The Bank'sBank’s competition for loans comes principally from other financial institutions, mortgage banking companies, mortgage brokers and life insurance companies. The Bank expects competition to continue to increase in the future as a result of legislative, regulatory and technological changes within the financial services industry. Technological advances, for example, have lowered barriers to market entry, allowed banks to expand their geographic reach by providing services over the Internet and made it possible for non-depository institutions to offer products and services that traditionally have been provided by banks. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which permits affiliation among banks, securities firms and insurance companies, also has changed the competitive environment in which the Bank conducts business.

Residential Mortgage Lending. The Bank actively originates loans for the acquisition or refinance of one- to four-family residences. These loans are originated as a result of customer and real estate agent referrals, existing and walk-in customers, and from responses to the Bank'sBank’s marketing campaigns. At June 30, 2017,2023, residential loans secured by one- to four-family residences totaled $311.0$740.5 million, or 24.1%20.7% of net loans receivable. The Bank currently offers both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM"(“ARM”) loans. During the year ended June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank originated $34.5$38.4 million of ARM loans and $27.1$125.7 million of fixed-rate loans that were secured by one- to four-family residences, for retention in the Bank'sBank’s portfolio. An additional $33.1$21.5 million in fixed-rate one- to four-family residential loans were originated for sale on the secondary market. Substantially all of the one- to four-family residential mortgage originations in the Bank'sBank’s portfolio are secured by property located within the Bank'sBank’s market area. Fixed rate one- to four- family loans represented 81.3% of the one- to four- family portfolio with a weighted average maturity of 15.7 years.The Bank generally originates one- to four-family residential mortgage loans for retention in its portfolio in amounts up to 90% of the lower of the purchase price or appraised value of residential property. For loans originated in excess of 80% loan-to-value, the Bank generally charges an additional 50-7525-75 basis points, but does not require private mortgage insurance. At June 30, 2017,2023, the remainingoutstanding balance of loans originated with a loan-to-value ratio in excess of 80% was $74.5$129.2 million. For fiscal years ended June 30, 2017, 2016, 2015, 20142023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2013,2019, originations of one- to four-family loans in excess of 80% loan-to-value have totaled $25.0$27.3 million, $16.5$50.8 million, $24.3$52.2 million, $13.6$45.9 million, and $13.8$23.3 million, respectively, totaling $93.2$199.5 million. The remainingoutstanding balance of those loans at June 30, 2017,2023, was $59.4$110.7 million. Originating loans with higher loan-to-value ratios presents additional credit risk to the Bank. Consequently, the Bank limits this product to borrowers with a favorable credit history and a demonstrable ability to service the debt. The majority of new residential mortgage loans originated by the Bank for retention in its portfolio conform to secondary market underwriting standards,standards; however, documentation of loan files may not be adequate to allow for immediate sale. The interest rates charged on these loans are competitively priced based on local market conditions, the availability of funding, and anticipated profit margins. Fixed and ARM loans originated by the Bank are amortized over periods as long as 30 years, but typically are repaid over shorter periods. Fixed-rate loans secured by one- to four-family residences have contractual maturities up to 30 years, and are generally fully amortizing with payments due monthly. These loans normally remain outstanding for a substantially shorter period of time because of refinancing and other prepayments. A significant change in the interest rate environment can alter the average life of a residential loan portfolio. The one- to four-family fixed-rate loans do not contain prepayment penalties. At June 30, 2017,2023, one- to four-family loans with a fixed rate totaled $147.5$586.4 million and had a weighted-average maturity of 106188 months. The Bank currentlyalso originates one- to four-family adjustable rate mortgage ("ARM")ARM loans, which adjust annually, after an initial period of one three, five, orto seven years. Typically, originated ARM loans secured by owner occupied properties reprice at a margin of 2.75% to 3.00% over the weekly average yield on United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year ("CMT"(“CMT”). Generally, ARM loans secured by non-owner occupied residential properties reprice at a margin of 3.75% overare tied to the CMT index. CurrentWall Street Journal prime rate. Owner occupied residential ARM loan originations are subject to annual and lifetime interest rate caps and floors. As a consequence of using interest rate caps, initial rates which may be at a premium or discount, and a "CMT" loan index, the interest earned on the Bank'sBank’s ARMs will react differently to changing interest rates than the Bank'sBank’s cost of funds. At June 30, 2017,2023, one- to four-family loans tied to the CMT index totaled $131.5$89.9 million. One- to four-family loans tied to other indices totaled $36.1$65.9 million. In underwriting one- to four-family residential real estate loans, the Bank evaluates the borrower'sborrower’s ability to meet debt service requirements at current as well as fully indexed rates for ARM loans, as well asand the value of the property securing the loan. Most properties securing real estate loans made by the Bank during fiscal 20172023 had appraisals performed on them by independent fee appraisers approved and qualified by the Board of Directors. The Bank generally requires borrowers to obtain title insurance and fire, property and flood insurance (if indicated) in an amount not less than the amount of the loan. Real estate loans originated by the Bank generally contain a "due on sale" clause allowing the Bank to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the security property. The Bank also originates loans secured by multi-family residential properties that are often located outside the Company'sCompany’s primary market area, but made to borrowers who operate within the primary market area. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had $151.6$393.0 million, or 10.9%11.0% of net loans receivable, in multi-family residential real estate.Fixed rate loans secured by multi-family residential properties represented 85.7% of the multi-family residential property portfolio with a weighted average maturity of 7.6 years. The majority of the multi-family residential loans that are originated by the Bank are amortized over periods generally up to 2725 years, with balloon maturities up to ten years. Both fixed and adjustable interest rates are offered and it is typical for the Bank to include an interest rate "floor"“floor” and "ceiling"“ceiling” in thesevariable-rate loan agreements. Variable rate loans typically adjust daily, monthly, quarterly or annually based on the Wall Street prime interest rate. Generally, multi-family residential loans do not exceed 85% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property. The Bank generally requires a Board-approved independent certified fee appraiser to be engaged in determining the collateral value. As a general rule, the Bank requires the unlimited guaranty of all individuals (or entities) owning (directly or indirectly) 20% or more of the stock of the borrowing entity. The primary risk associated with multifamilymulti-family loans is the ability of the income-producing property that collateralizes the loan to produce adequate cash flow to service the debt. High unemployment or generally weak economic conditions may result in borrowers having to provide rental rate concessions to achieve adequate occupancy rates. In an effort to reduce these risks, the Bank will evaluateevaluates the guarantor'sguarantor’s ability to inject personal funds as a tertiary source of repayment. Commercial Real Estate Lending. The Bank actively originates loans secured by commercial real estate including land (improvedfarmland, single- and unimproved), shopping centers,multi-tenant retail establishments,properties, restaurants, hotels, nursing homes and other healthcare related facilities, land (improved and unimproved), convenience stores, automobile dealerships, and other automotive-related services, warehouses and distribution centers, and other businesses generally located in the Bank'sBank’s market area. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had $603.9 million$1.6 billion in commercial real estate loans, which represented 43.2%43.8% of net loans receivable. Of this amount, $140.0$238.1 million were loans secured by agricultural properties. The increase over the last several fiscal years in agricultural lending is the result of an intentional focus by the Bank on that segment of our market, including the hiring of personnel with knowledge of agricultural lending and experience in that type of business development. The Bank expects to continue to grow its agricultural lending portfolio, but expects that the rate of growth experienced over the last several fiscal years is unlikely to be maintained. The Bank expects to continue to maintain, orand may increase, the percentage of commercial real estate loans, inclusive of agricultural properties, in its total portfolio. Fixed rate commercial real estate loans represented 82.8% of the commercial real estate portfolio with a weighted average maturity of 5.1 years.Commercial real estate loans originated by the Bank are generally based on amortization schedules of up to 25 years with monthly principal and interest payments. Generally, these loans have fixed interest rates and maturities ranging up to seventen years, with a balloon payment due at maturity. Alternatively, for some loans, the interest rate adjusts at least annually, based on the Wall Street Journal prime rate, after an initial fixed-rate period up to five years, based upon the Wall Street prime rate.seven years. The Bank typically includes an interest rate "floor" in the loan agreement. The Bank's fixed-rate commercial real estate portfolio has a weighted average maturity of 38 months. Variable rate commercial real estate originations typically adjust daily, monthly, quarterly or annually based on the Wall Street prime rate. Generally, loans for improved commercial properties do not exceed 80% of the lower of the appraised value or the purchase price of the secured property. Agricultural real estate terms offered differ slightly, with amortization schedules of up to 25 years with an 80% loan-to-value ratio, or 30 years with a 75% loan-to-value ratio. Agricultural real estate loans generally require annual, instead of monthly, payments. Before credit is extended, the Bank analyzes the financial condition of the borrower, the borrower'sborrower’s credit history, and the reliability and predictability of the cash flow generated by the property and the value of the property itself. Generally, personal guarantees are obtained from the borrower in addition to obtaining the secured property as collateral for such loans. The Bank also generally requires appraisals on properties securing commercial real estate to be performed by a Board-approved independent certified fee appraiser. Generally, loans secured by commercial real estate involve a greater degree of credit risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. These loans typically involve large balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate are often dependent on the successful operation or management of the secured property, repayment of such loans may be subject to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. See "Asset Quality." Construction Lending. The Bank originates real estate loans secured by property or land that is under construction or development. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had $106.8$550.0 million, or 7.6%15.4% of net loans receivable in construction loans outstanding.outstanding and loans in process.Construction loans originated by the Bank are generally secured by mortgage loans for the construction of owner occupied residential real estate or to finance speculative construction secured by residential real estate, land development, or owner-operatedowner-occupied or non-owner occupied commercial real estate. At June 30, 2017, $41.72023, $124.7 million of the Bank'sBank’s construction loans outstanding and loans in process were secured by one- to four-family residential real estate, (of which $8.3$255.7 million was for speculative construction), $20.1 million of which were secured by multi-family residential real estate, and $44.9$169.6 million of which were secured by commercial real estate. During construction, these loans typically require monthly interest-only payments and have maturities ranging from 6with single-family residential construction loans maturing in nine to twelve months, while multi-family or commercial construction loans typically mature in 12 to 36 months. Once construction is completed, permanent construction loans may be converted to permanent financing, generally with monthly payments using amortization schedules of up to 30 years on residential and generally up to 25 years on commercial real estate. Speculative construction and land development lending generally affords the Bank an opportunity to receive higher interest rates and fees with shorter terms to maturity than those obtainable from residential lending. Nevertheless, construction and land development lending is generally considered to involve a higher level of credit risk than one- to four-family residential lending due to (i) the concentration of principal among relatively few borrowers and development projects, (ii) the increased difficulty at the time the loan is made of accurately estimating building or development costs and the selling price of the finished product, (iii) the increased difficulty and costs of monitoring and disbursing funds for the loan, (iv) the higher degree of sensitivity to increases in market rates of interest and changes in local economic conditions, and (v) the increased difficulty of working out problem loans. Due in part to these risk factors, the Bank may be required from time to time to modify or extend the terms of some of these types of loans. In an effort to reduce these risks, the application process includes a submission to the Bank of accurate plans, specifications and costs of the project to be constructed. These items are also used as a basis to determine the appraised value of the subject property. Loan amounts are generally limited to 80% of the lesser of current appraised value and/or the cost of construction. Consumer Lending. The Bank offers a variety of secured consumer loans, includingincluding: home equity, directautomobile, second mortgage, mobile home and indirect automobile loans, second mortgages, mobile homes and loans secured by deposits.deposit-secured loans. The Bank originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary market area. Usually,Generally, consumer loans are originated with fixed rates for terms of up to five years,approximately 66 months, with the exception of home equity lines of credit, which are variable, tied to the prime rate of interest, and are for a period of ten years. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank'sBank’s consumer loan portfolio totaled $63.7$133.5 million, or 4.6%3.7% of net loans receivable. Home equity loans represented 55.3%48.7% of the Bank'sBank’s consumer loan portfolio at June 30, 2017,2023, and totaled $35.2$65.1 million, or 2.5%1.8% of net loans receivable. Home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) are secured with a deed of trust or mortgage and are generally issued for up to 90% of the appraised or assessed value of the property securing the line of credit, less the outstanding balance on the first mortgage. Interest rates on the HELOCs are adjustable and are tied to the current prime interest rate, generally with an interest rate floor in the loan agreement. This rate is obtained from the Wall Street Journal and adjusts on a daily basis. Interest rates are based upon the loan-to-value ratio of the property with better rates given to borrowers with more equity. HELOCs which are secured by residential properties, arewhich is generally secured byconsidered to be stronger collateral than that securing other consumer loans andloans. In addition, because of the adjustable rate structure, HELOCs present less interest rate risk to the Bank. AutomobileConsumer loans for the purchase of automobiles represented 10.0%16.3% of the Bank'sBank’s consumer loan portfolio at June 30, 2017,2023, and totaled $6.4$21.8 million, or 0.46%0.6% of net loans receivable. Of that total, an immaterial amount was originated by auto dealers. Typically, automobile loans are made for terms of up to 6066 months for new and used vehicles. Loans secured by automobiles have fixed rates and are generally made in amounts up to 100% of the purchase price of the vehicle. Consumer loan rates and terms vary according to the type and value of collateral, length of contract and creditworthiness of the borrower.borrower, which is evaluated using credit scoring. Consumers with additional qualifying Bank products are eligible for additional pricing discounts. The underwriting standards employed for consumer loans include employment stability, an application, a determination of the applicant'sapplicant’s payment history on other debts, and an assessment of ability to meet existing and proposed obligations. Although creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the security, if any, in relation to the proposed loan amount. Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do residential mortgage loans, because they are generally unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable or mobile assets, such as automobiles. In the event of repossession or default, there may be no secondary source of repayment or the underlying value of the collateral could be insufficient to repay the loan. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower'sborrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans. The Bank'sBank’s delinquency levels for these types of loans are reflective of these risks. See "Asset Classification." Commercial Business Lending. The Bank'sBank’s commercial business lending activities encompass loans with a variety of purposes and security, including loans to finance accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and operating lines of credit. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had $247.2$599.0 million in commercial business loans outstanding, or 17.7%16.8% of net loans receivable. Of this amount, $85.7$138.3 million were loans related to agriculture, including amortizing equipment loans and annual production lines. The Bank expects to continue to maintain, and may increase, the current percentage of commercial business loans in its total loan portfolio. The Bank currently offers both fixed and adjustable rate commercial business loans. At fiscal year end, the Bank had $137.6 million in fixed rate and $109.6 millioncommercial loans represented 58.0% of adjustable ratethe commercial business loans.loan portfolio with a weighted average maturity of 2.9 years. The adjustable rate business loans typically reprice daily, monthly, quarterly, or annually, in accordance with the Wall Street prime rate of interest. The Bank typically includes an interest rate "floor" in the loan agreement. Commercial business loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral, length of contract and creditworthiness of the borrower. Generally, commercial loans secured by fixed assets are amortized over periods up to five years, while commercial operating lines of credit or agricultural production lines are generally for a one year period. The Bank'sBank’s commercial business loans are evaluated based on the loan application, a determination of the applicant's applicant’s payment history on other debts, business stability and an assessment of ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the security,collateral, if any, in relation to the proposed loan amount. Unlike residential mortgage loans, which generally are made on the basis of the borrower'sborrower’s ability to make repayment from his or her employment and other income, and which are secured by real property whose value tends to be more easily ascertainable, commercial business loans are of higher risk and typically are made on the basis of the borrower'sborrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower'sborrower’s business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself. Further, the collateral securing the loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business. Small Business Administration (SBA) Lending. The Bank’s commercial and construction business lending activity includes some loans guaranteed by the SBA. In fiscal 2023, $6.4 million in originations was guaranteed by the SBA, and as of June 30, 2023, the Company held balances of $9.5 million in its portfolio representing the unguaranteed portion of SBA loans it had originated. The Company had sold and was servicing $60.9 million of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans as of June 30, 2023. Contractual Obligations and Commitments, Including Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements .

Loan Originations, Sales and Purchases Generally, all loans are originated by the Bank'sBank’s staff, who are salaried loan officers. All loan officers are eligible for bonuses based on production, market performance, and credit quality. Certain lenders, in particular those originating higher volume of residential loans for sale on the secondary market, may earn a relatively higher percentage of their total compensation through bonuses. Loans are originated both to be held for investment and to be sold into the secondary market. Loan applications are generally taken and processed at each of the Bank'sBank’s full-service locations and the Bank in recent years began processing online applications for single-family residential loans. The Bank also offers secondary market loans to its customers. While the Bank originates both adjustable-rate and fixed-rate loans, the ability to originate loans is dependent upon the relative customer demand for loans in its market. In fiscal 2017,2023, the Bank originated $494.9 million$1.2 billion of loans, compared to $425.9 million$1.1 billion and $391.2$971.8 million, respectively, in fiscal 20162022 and 2015.2021. Of these loans, mortgage loan originations were $399.2 million, $334.2$1.0 billion, $970.1 million, and $276.0$771.2 million in fiscal 2017, 20162023, 2022, and 2015,2021, respectively. Increases in originations over recent periods is attributed primarily to increased lending activity, increased borrower refinancing, and an expanded market area and customer base following recent acquisitions. mergers.From time to time, the Bank has purchased loan participations consistent with its loan underwriting standards. InDuring fiscal 2017,2023, the Bank purchased $6.5committed to purchase $118.7 million of new loan participations. At June 30, 2017,2023, outstanding balances on loan participations purchased totaled $12.5$155.6 million, or 0.89%3.6% of net loans receivable. An additional $144.6 million is available to be drawn on these purchased participation loans. At June 30, 2017,2023, all of these participations were performing in accordance with their respective terms. The Bank evaluates additional loan participations on an ongoing basis, based in part on local loan demand, liquidity, portfolio and capital levels.

The Bank issues commitments for one- to four-familysingle- and multi-family residential mortgage loans, commercial real estate loans, operating or working capital lines of credit, and standby letters-of-credit. Such commitments may be oral or in writing with specified terms, conditions and at a specified rate of interest. The Bank had outstanding net loan commitments of approximately $251.9$912.0 million at June 30, 2017.2023. See Note 1412 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8. In addition to interest earned on loans, the Bank receives income from fees in connection with loan originations, loan modifications, late payments and for miscellaneous services related to its loans. Income from these activities varies from period to period depending upon the volume and type of loans made and competitive conditions. Delinquent Loans. Generally, when a borrower fails to make a required payment, on mortgage or installment loans, the Bank begins the collection process by mailing a computer generated notice to the customer. If the delinquency is not cured promptly, the customer is contacted again by notice or telephone. After an account secured by real estate becomes over 60 days past due, the Bank will typically send a 30-day demand notice to the customer which, if not cured within the time provided or unless satisfactory arrangements have been made, will lead to foreclosure. Foreclosure may not begin until the loan reaches 120 days delinquency in the case of consumer residential loans. For consumer loans, the Missouri Right-To-Cure Statute is followed, which requires issuance of specifically worded notices at specific time intervals prior to repossession or further collection efforts.

Non-Performing Assets. The table below sets forth the amounts and categories of non-performing assets in the Bank'sBank’s loan portfolio. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when the collection of principal and/or interest becomes doubtful, and as a result, previously accrued interest income on the loan is removed from current income. The Bank has no reserves for uncollected interest and does not accrue interest on non-accrual loans. A loan may be transferred back to accrual status once a satisfactory repayment history has been restored. Foreclosed assets held for sale include assets acquired in settlement of loans and are shown net of reserves. The increase in nonperforming assets in fiscal 2023 was attributed primarily to nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned acquired in the Citizens merger. For information regarding accrual of interest on impaired loans, see Note 1 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8. The Company generally treatsmay treat purchased credit deteriorated loans acquired with impaired credit quality as an accruing asset despite reporting such loans as impaired, because these loans are recorded at acquisition at fair value, which includes an accretable discount which is recorded as interest income over the expected life of the obligation.

At June 30, 2017, troubled debt restructurings (TDRs)2023, Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) totaled $11.2$30.5 million, of which $338,000$727,000 was considered nonperforming and was included in the nonaccrual loan total above. The remaining $10.9$29.8 million in TDRs have complied with the modified terms for a reasonable period of time and are therefore considered by the Company to be accrual status loans. At June 30, 2016,2022, TDRs totaled $8.4$31.4 million, of which $2.3 million$807,000 was considered nonperforming and was included in the nonaccrual loan total above. In general, these loans were subject to classification as TDRs at June 30, 2017,2023 and 2022, on the basis of guidance under ASU 2011-02,2011-02 “Receivables: A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring”, which indicates that the Company may not consider the borrower'sborrower’s effective borrowing rate on the old debt immediately before the restructuring in determining whether a concession has been granted. Real Estate Owned. Real estate properties acquired through foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated disposition costs.costs, which establishes a new cost basis. If fair value at the date of foreclosure is lower than the balance of the related loan, the difference will be charged-off to the allowance for loancredit losses at the time of transfer. Management periodically updates real estate valuations and if the value declines, a specific provision for losses on such property is established by a charge to operations.noninterest expense. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Company'sCompany’s balance of real estate owned totaled $3.0$3.6 million, and included $731,000 residential properties and $2.3 millionall in non-residential properties. Asset Classification. Applicable regulations require that each insured institution review and classify its assets on a regular basis. In addition, in connection with examinations of insured institutions, regulatory examiners have authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, require them to be classified. There are three classifications for problem assets: substandard, doubtful and loss. Substandard assets must have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as loss, it charges off the balance of the assets. Assets which do not currently expose the Bank to sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess weaknesses, may be designated as special mention. The Bank'sBank’s determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the FRB and the Missouri Division of Finance, which can order the establishment of additional loss allowances. On the basis of management'smanagement’s review of the assets of the Company, at June 30, 2017,2023, adversely classified assets totaled $17.5$50.0 million, or 1.02%1.15% of total assets as compared to $16.0$29.3 million, or 1.14%0.91% of total assets at June 30, 2016.2022. Of the amount adversely classified as of June 30, 2017, $16.92023, $50.0 million was considered substandard, and $600,000none was considered doubtful. Included in adversely classified assets at June 30, 2017,2023, were various loans totaling $13.3$46.3 million (see Note 3 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 for more information on adversely classified loans); and foreclosed real estate and repossessed assets totaling $3.1 million; and Company investments in pooled trust preferred securities with a book value of $1.1$3.6 million. ClassifiedAdversely classified loans are so designated due to concerns regarding the borrower'sborrower’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows to service the debt. The investmentsincrease in pooled trust preferred securities were classified loans was attributable in part to a limited number of commercial real estate loans secured by hotel properties with combined balances of $23.4 million and $14.9 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2023 and 2022. These borrowers requested and received payment deferrals or modifications due to concerns about the abilityimpact of the poolsCOVID-19 pandemic on their operations, and were not able to return to their previously contracted arrangements by June 30, 2022. Since that date, they have become current on their payments, but there is some concern for their ability to generate sufficientenough cash flowsflow to service the debt. These securities have previously deferred interest payments. ClassifiedAdversely classified loans totaling $2.5$9.6 million had been placed on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2017,2023, of which $1.8$6.5 million were more than 30 days delinquent. Of the remaining $10.8$36.7 million of adversely classified loans, $251,000$2.6 million were more than 30 days delinquent. Other Loans of Concern. In addition to the adversely classified assets above, there waswere also an aggregate of $13.3 million inother loans with respect to which management has concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to continue to comply with present loan repayment terms, which may ultimately result in the adverse classification of such assets. These loans continued to perform according to contractual terms as of June 30, 2017,2023, but were identified as having elevated risk due to concerns regarding the borrower'sborrower’s ability to continue to generate sufficient cash flows to service the debt. At June 30, 2023, these other loans of concern totaled $27.9 million, as compared to $24.4 million at June 30, 2022. Allowance for LoanCredit Losses. The Bank'sBank’s allowance for loancredit losses is established through a provision for loancredit losses based on management's evaluationmanagement’s expectation of lifetime credit losses on financial assets held at amortized cost. Management estimates the ACL using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments may be made to historical loss information for differences identified in current loan-specific risk inherentcharacteristics, such as differences in the loanunderwriting standards or terms; lending review systems; experience, ability, or depth of lending management and staff; portfolio growth and mix; delinquency levels and trends; as well as for changes in the nature and volume of loanenvironmental conditions, such as changes in economic activity including those loans which are being specifically monitored. Such evaluation, which includes a review of loans for which full collectability may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral,or employment, agricultural economic conditions, historical loan loss experience andproperty values, or other factors that warrant recognition in provisioning for loan losses.relevant factors. These provisions for loancredit losses are charged against earnings in the year they are established. The Bank had an allowance for loancredit losses at June 30, 2017,2023, of $15.5$47.8 million, which represented 246%424% of nonperforming assets as compared to an allowance of $13.8$33.2 million, which represented 152%526% of nonperforming assets at June 30, 2016. 2022.At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank also had an allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures of $1.1$6.3 million, as compared to $745,000$3.4 million at June 30, 2016.2022. This amount is maintained as a separate liability account to cover estimated potential credit losses associated with off-balance sheet credit instruments such as off-balance sheet loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and guarantees. The increase was attributable primarily to an increase in anticipated draws of available credit and changes in the mix of loan types anticipated to be funded. Although management believes that it uses the best information available to determine the allowance, unforeseen market conditions could result in adjustments and net earnings could be significantly affected if circumstances differ substantially from assumptions used in making the final determination. Future additions to the allowance will likely be the result of periodic loan, property and collateral reviews and thus cannot be predicted with certainty in advance. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance is provided in Note 1 and Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8, and in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies – Allowance for Credit Losses” in section of Item 7 of this Form 10-K. The following table sets forth an analysis of the Bank'sBank’s allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated.

Deposit Activities and Other Sources of Funds General. The Company'sCompany’s primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, payments of principal and interest on loans, MBS and CMOs, interest and principal received on investment securities and other short-term investments, and funds provided from operating results. Loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows and loan prepayments are significantly influenced by general market interest rates and overall economic conditions. Borrowings, including FHLB advances, have been used at times to provide additional liquidity. Borrowings are used on an overnight or short-term basis to compensate for periodic fluctuations in cash flows, and are used on a longer term basis to fund loan growth and to help manage the Company'sCompany’s sensitivity to fluctuating interest rates. Deposits. The Bank'sBank’s depositors are generally residents and entities located in the StateStates of Missouri, Arkansas, or Arkansas.Illinois. Deposits are attracted from within the Bank'sBank’s market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit instruments, including demand deposit accounts, negotiable order of withdrawal ("NOW")interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing transaction accounts, money market deposit accounts, saving accounts, certificates of deposit and retirement savings plans. At times, the Company will utilize brokered deposits in lieu of borrowings, subject to market pricing and availability. For larger depositors, such as public units, the Company often utilizes a reciprocal deposit program to provide additional FDIC coverage to our customer through otherfinancial institutions while conveniently allowing management of the deposit relationship through our institution. Deposit account terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the time periods the funds may remain on deposit and the interest rate, among other factors. In determining the terms of its deposit accounts, the Bank considers current market interest rates, profitability to the Bank, managing interest rate sensitivity and its customer preferences and concerns. The Bank'sBank’s Asset/Liability Committee regularly reviews its deposit mix and pricing. The Bank will periodically promote a particular deposit product as part of the Bank'sits overall marketing plan. Deposit products have been promoted through various mediums, which include digital and social media, television, radio and newspaper advertisements, as well as "grassroots"“grassroots” marketing techniques, such as sponsorship of – or activity at – community events. The emphasis of these campaigns is to increase consumer awareness and market share of the Bank. The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in prevailing interest rates, and competition. Based on its experience, the Bank believes that its deposits are relatively stable sources of funds. However, the ability of the Bank to attract and maintain money market deposit accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit, and the rates paid on these deposits, has been and will continue to be significantly affected by market conditions.

GOVERNMENT SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
The following is a brief description of certain laws and regulations applicable to the supervision and regulation of the Company and the Bank. Descriptions of laws and regulations here and elsewhere in this prospectus do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the actual laws and regulations. Legislation is introduced from time to time in the United States Congress or the Missouri state legislature that may affect the operations of the Company and the Bank. In addition, the regulations governing us may be amended from time to time. Any such legislation or regulatory changes in the future could adversely affect our operations and financial condition. TheFinancial Regulatory Reform. In 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act"“Dodd-Frank Act”) imposed various restrictions and an expanded framework of regulatory oversight for financial institutions, including depository institutions. The following discussion summarizes significantinstitutions and their holding companies. In May 2018 the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act (the “Act”), was enacted to modify or remove certain financial reform rules and regulations, including some of those implemented under the Dodd-Frank Act. While the Act maintains most of the regulatory structure established by the Dodd-Frank Act, it amends certain aspects of the Dodd-Frankregulatory framework for small depository institutions with assets of less than $10 billion and for large banks with assets of more than $50 billion. Many of these changes could result in meaningful regulatory relief for community banks such as the Bank. The Act, among other matters, expands the definition of qualified mortgages which may be held by a financial institution and offers optional, simplified regulatory capital rules for financial institutions and their holding companies with total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion by instructing the federal banking regulators to establish a single Community Bank Leverage Ratio (“CBLR”) of between 8 and 10 percent. Effective, January 1, 2022, the CBLR requirement was 9.0%. Any qualifying depository institution or its holding company that exceeds the “community bank leverage ratio” will be considered to have met generally applicable leverage and risk-based regulatory capital requirements and any qualifying depository institution that exceeds the new ratio will be considered to be “well capitalized” under the prompt corrective action rules. The Act also expanded the category of holding companies that may affectrely on the “Small Bank Holding Company and Savings and Loan Holding Company Policy Statement” (the “HC Policy Statement”) by raising the Company. The following selected aspectsmaximum amount of assets a qualifying holding company may have from $1 billion to $3 billion. This expansion also excludes such holding companies from the minimum capital requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act. In addition, the Act are related toincludes regulatory relief for community banks regarding regulatory examination cycles, call reports, the operations of the Bank:
· | The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB"), an independent consumer compliance regulatory agency within the FRB, has been established. The CFPB is empowered to exercise broad regulatory, supervisory and enforcement authority over financial institutions with total assets of over $10 billion with respect to Federal consumer financial protection laws. Financial institutions with assets of less than $10 billion, like the Bank, will continue to be subject to supervision and enforcement by their primary federal banking regulator with respect to federal consumer financial protection laws. The CFPB also has authority to promulgate new consumer financial protection regulations and amend existing consumer financial protection regulations;

· | The Federal Deposit Insurance Act was amended to require depository institution holding companies to serve as a source of strength for their depository institution subsidiaries; |
· | The prohibition on payment of interest on demand deposits was repealed; |
· | Deposit insurance was permanently increased to $250,000; and |
· | The deposit insurance assessment base for FDIC insurance is the depository institution's average consolidated total assets less the average tangible equity during the assessment period; |
The following aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act are related to the operations of the Company:
· | Tier 1 capital treatment for "hybrid" capital items like trust preferred securities is eliminated, subject to various grandfathering and transition rules. As required by the Act, the federal banking agencies have promulgated new rules on regulatory capital for both depository institutions and their holding companies; |
· | Public companies are required to provide their shareholders with a non-binding vote: (i) at least once every three years on the compensation paid to executive officers, and (ii) at least once every six years on whether shareholders should have a "say on pay" vote every one, two or three years; |
· | A separate, non-binding shareholder vote is required regarding golden parachutes for named executive officers when a shareholder vote takes place on mergers, acquisitions, dispositions or other transactions that would trigger the parachute payments; |
· | Securities exchanges are required to prohibit brokers from using their own discretion to vote shares not beneficially owned by them for certain "significant" matters, which include votes on the election of directors, executive compensation matters, and any other matter determined to be significant; |
· | Stock exchanges are prohibited from listing the securities of any issuer that does not have a policy providing for (i) disclosure of its policy on incentive compensation payable on the basis of financial information reportable under the securities laws, and (ii) the recovery from current or former executive officers, following an accounting restatement triggered by material noncompliance with securities law |
| reporting requirements, of any incentive compensation paid erroneously during the three-year period preceding the date on which the restatement was required that exceeds the amount that would have been paid on the basis of the restated financial information; |

Volcker Rule (proprietary trading prohibitions), mortgage disclosures and risk weights for certain high-risk commercial real estate loans.The Bank General. As a state-chartered, federally-insuredfederally insured trust company with banking powers, the Bank is subject to extensive regulation. Lending activities and other investments must comply with various statutory and regulatory requirements, including prescribed minimum capital standards. The Bank is regularly examined by the FRB and the Missouri Division of Finance and files periodic reports concerning the Bank'sBank’s activities and financial condition with its regulators. The Bank'sBank’s relationship with depositors and borrowers also is regulated to a great extent by both federal law and the laws of Missouri, especially in such matters as the ownership of deposit accounts and the form and content of mortgage documents. Federal and state banking laws and regulations govern all areas of the operation of the Bank, including reserves, loans, mortgages, capital, trust services issuance of securities, payment of dividends, and establishment of branches. Federal and state bank regulatory agencies also have the general authority to limit the dividends paid by insured banks and bank holding companies if such payments should be deemed to constitute an unsafe and unsound practice, and in other circumstances. The FRB as the primary federal regulator of the Company and the Bank has authority to impose penalties, initiate civil and administrative actions and take other steps intended to prevent banks from engaging in unsafe or unsound practices. State Regulation and Supervision. As a state-chartered trust company with banking powers, the Bank is subject to applicable provisions of Missouri law and the regulations of the Missouri Division of Finance. Missouri law and regulations govern the Bank'sBank’s ability to take deposits and pay interest thereon, to make loans on or invest in residential and other real estate, to make consumer loans, to invest in securities, to offer various banking services to its customers, and to establish branch offices. Federal Reserve System. The FRB requires all depository institutions to maintain reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts (checking, NOW and Super NOW checking accounts). At June 30, 2017,These reserves may be in the Bank was in complianceform of cash or deposits with thesethe institution’s regional Federal Reserve Bank. In response to the COVID -19 pandemic, effective March 26, 2020, the FRB reduced the reserve requirements.requirement ratio to 0% for all account types, eliminating reserve requirements for all depository institutions, to support lending to households and businesses.The Bank is authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank "discount window." FRB regulations require associationsThe purpose of the discount window is to exhaust other reasonable alternativeprovide an additional backstop funding option for eligible depository institutions seeking to supplement their funding sources, of funds, includingparticularly to meet unexpected short-term funding needs. Depository institutions like the Bank would typically utilize FHLB borrowings before borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank. Bank’s discount window. The Bank has also been approved for participation in the BTFP introduced early in calendar year 2023 by the Federal Reserve Bank, but the Bank has not pledged any securities under the program.Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Des Moines, which is one of 11 regional FHLBs that provide home financing credit. Each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. It is funded primarily from proceeds derived from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. ItSystem and makes loans or advances to members in accordance with policies and procedures established by the Board of Directors of the FHLB of Des Moines, which are subject to the oversight of the Federal Housing Finance Agency. All advances from the FHLB are required to be fully secured by sufficient collateral as determined by the FHLB. In addition, all long-term advances are required to provide funds for residential home financing. See Business - Deposit Activities and Other Sources of Funds - Borrowings. As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in the FHLB of Des Moines. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had $3.5$11.5 million in FHLB stock, which was in compliance with this requirement. The Bank received $151,000$555,000 and $99,000$239,000 in dividends from the FHLB of Des Moines for the years ended June 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively. The FHLBs continue to contribute to low- and moderately-priced housing programs through direct loans or interest subsidies on advances targeted for community investment and low- and moderate-income housing projects. These contributions have adversely affected the level of FHLB dividends paid and could continue to do so in the future. These contributions could also have an adverse effect on the value of FHLB stock in the future. A reduction in value of the Bank'sBank’s FHLB stock may result in a corresponding reduction in the Bank'sBank’s capital. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation . The Bank'sBank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF"(“DIF”) of the FDIC. The general insurance limit is $250,000.$250,000 per account relationship. As insurer, the FDIC imposes deposit insurance premiums and is authorized to conduct examinations of and to require reporting by FDIC-insured institutions. It also may prohibit any FDIC-insured institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the DIF. The FDIC also has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against a member bank of the FRB after giving the FRB an opportunity to take such action. The Dodd-Frank Act establishes 1.35% as the minimum reserve ratio (the ratio of the net worth of the DIF to aggregate insured deposits). The FDIC has adopted a plan under which it will meet this ratio by September 30, 2020, the deadline imposed by the Dodd-Frank Act. The FDIC is required to offset the effect of the increase in the reserve ratio on institutions In accordance with assets less than $10 billion of the increase in the statutory minimum reserve ratio to 1.35% from the former statutory minimum of 1.15%. In addition to the statutory minimum ratio, the FDIC must designate a reserve ratio, known as the designated reserve ratio or DRR, which may exceed the statutory minimum. The FDIC has established 2.0% as the DRR.
Implementing the Dodd-Frank Act, requirement that the FDIC's deposit insurance assessments be based on assets instead of deposits, the FDIC has issued rules specifying that specify that the assessment base for a bank is equal to its total average consolidated assets less average tangible equity. generally Effective for the quarter beginning July 1, 2016, the assessment rates for an institution with assets of less than $10 billion will range from 3 to 30 basis points,regulations setting insurance premium assessments based on the institution's weighted average CAMELS componentan institution’s total assets minus its Tier 1 capital instead of its deposits. The Bank’s FDIC premiums are based on its supervisory ratings and certain financial ratios. These rates are subject
On October 18, 2022, the FDIC adopted a final rule to downward adjustment (not below 1.5increase its initial base insurance assessment rate schedules by two basis points) based onpoints to improve the ratio of unsecured debt the institution has issued to its assessment base, and to upward adjustment based on its holdings of unsecured debt issued by other insured institutions. Assessment rates are expected to decrease in the future aslikelihood that the reserve ratio of the DIF would be restored to at least 1.35 percent by September 30, 2028. The revised assessment rate schedules became effective January 1, 2023, with the first invoice payment date of June 30, 2023 for the assessment period of January 1, 2023 through March 31, 2023. The FDIC has authority to increase insurance assessments and any significant increases in specified increments. To implement the offset requirement, FDIC regulations require that institutions with assets of $10 billion or more pay a surcharge during a temporary period, and smaller institutions will receive certain credits when the reserve ratio reaches 1.38%. No institution may pay a dividend if it is in default on its federal deposit insurance assessment. A significant increase in insurance assessment rates would likely have an adverse effect on the operating expenses and results of operations of the Bank. There can be no prediction as toWe cannot predict what insurance assessment rates will be in the future. Insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC. Management of the Bank is not aware of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of the Bank'sBank’s deposit insurance. In addition to the assessment for deposit insurance, institutions are required to make payments on bonds issued in the late 1980s by the Financing Corporation to recapitalize a predecessor deposit insurance fund. This payment is established quarterly and during the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2017, was 0.54 basis points (annualized) of assessable deposits.
Prompt Corrective Action. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDIA"), each federal banking agency is required to implement a system of prompt corrective action for depository institutions that it regulates. The federal banking agencies have promulgated substantially similar regulations to implement this system of prompt corrective action. In connection with the capital rules discussed under "Capital Rules" below, an institution is deemed to be "well capitalized" if it has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0% or more, (ii) a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.5% or more, (iii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or more, and (iv) a leverage ratio of 5.0% or more, and is not subject to specified requirements to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure. An institution is deemed to be "adequately capitalized" if it has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or more, (ii) a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4.5% or more, (iii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.0% or more, and (iv) a leverage ratio of 4.0% or more and does not meet the definition of "well capitalized;" "undercapitalized" if it has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 8.0%, (ii) a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio that is less than 4.5%, (iii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, or (iv) a leverage ratio that is less than 4.0%; "significantly undercapitalized" if it has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, (ii) a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio that is less than 3.0%, (iii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio that is less than 4.0%, or (iv) a leverage ratio that is less than 3.0%; and "critically undercapitalized" if it has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2.0%.
A federal banking agency may reclassify a well capitalized institution as adequately capitalized and may require an adequately capitalized institution or an undercapitalized institution to comply with supervisory actions as if it were in the next lower category if it determines, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that the institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition or has received in its most recent examination, and has not corrected, a less than satisfactory rating for asset quality, management, earnings, liquidity or sensitivity to market risk. (The agency may
not, however, reclassify a significantly undercapitalized institution as critically undercapitalized.) An institution that is not well capitalized is subject to certain restrictions on its deposit rates.
An undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, or critically undercapitalized institution is required to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan to its appropriate federal banking agency. The plan must specify (i) the steps the institution will take to become adequately capitalized, (ii) the capital levels to be attained each year, (iii) how the institution will comply with any regulatory sanctions then in effect against the institution and (iv) the types and levels of activities in which the institution will engage. The banking agency may not accept a capital restoration plan unless the agency determines, among other things, that the plan is based on realistic assumptions, and is likely to succeed in restoring the institution's capital and would not appreciably increase the risks to which the institution is exposed. An institution that is not well capitalized is subject to restrictions on brokered deposits.
The FDIA provides that the appropriate federal regulatory agency must require an insured depository institution that is significantly undercapitalized or is undercapitalized and either fails to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan within the time period allowed or fails in any material respect to implement a capital restoration plan accepted by the appropriate federal banking agency, or the parent bank holding company of such an institution, to take one or more of the following actions: (i) sell enough voting shares, to become adequately capitalized; (ii) merge with (or be sold to) another institution (or holding company), but only if grounds exist for appointing a conservator or receiver; (iii) restrict certain transactions with banking affiliates as if the "sister bank" exemption of Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act ("FRA") did not exist; (iv) otherwise restrict transactions with bank or non-bank affiliates; (v) restrict interest rates that the institution pays on deposits to "prevailing rates" in the institution's region; (vi) restrict asset growth or reduce total assets; (vii) alter, reduce or terminate activities; (viii) hold a new election of directors; (ix) require dismissal of any director or senior executive officer who held office for more than 180 days immediately before the institution became undercapitalized; (x) employ qualified senior executive officers; (xi) cease acceptance of deposits from correspondent depository institutions; (xii) divest the institution or certain non-depository holding company subsidiaries which pose a danger to the institution, or divest certain subsidiaries of the institution; (xiii) obtain prior FRB approval for payment of dividends by the parent bank holding company; and (xiv) any other action which the agency determines would better carry out the purposes of the prompt corrective action provision and request the institution to take.
A critically undercapitalized institution is subject to further restrictions and to appointment of a receiver or conservator 90 days after becoming critically undercapitalized unless the FDIC and, in the case of a state member Bank, the FRB concur that other action better serves the purposes of the prompt corrective action provisions.
At June 30, 2017, the Bank was categorized as "well capitalized" under the prompt corrective action regulations of the FRB.
Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking regulatory agencies have prescribed, by regulation, standards for all insured depository institutions relating to: (i) internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems; (ii) loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting; (iv) interest rate risk exposure; (v) asset growth; (vi) asset quality; (vii) earnings; and (viii) compensation, fees and benefits ("Guidelines"). The Guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. If the FRB determines that the Bank fails to meet any standard prescribed by the Guidelines, the agency may require the Bank to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard. Guidance on Subprime Mortgage Lending. The federal banking agencies have issued guidance on subprime mortgage lending to address issues related to certain mortgage products marketed to subprime borrowers, particularly adjustable rate mortgage products that can involve "payment shock" and other risky characteristics. Although the guidance focuses on subprime borrowers, the banking agencies note that institutions should look to the principles contained in the guidance when offering such adjustable rate mortgages to non-subprime borrowers. The guidance prohibits predatory lending programs; provides that institutions should underwrite a mortgage loan on the borrower'sborrower’s ability to repay the debt by its final maturity at the fully-indexed rate, assuming a fully amortizing repayment schedule; encourages reasonable workout arrangements with borrowers who are in default; mandates clear and balanced advertisements and other communications; encourages arrangements for the escrowing of real estate taxes and insurance; and states that institutions should develop strong control and monitoring systems. The federal banking agencies have announced their intention to carefully review the risk management and consumer compliance processes, policies and procedures of their supervised financial institutions and their intention to take action against institutions that engage in predatory lending practices, violate consumer protection laws or fair lending laws, engage in unfair or deceptive acts or practices, or otherwise engage in unsafe or unsound lending practices. Guidance on Commercial Real Estate Concentrations . The federal banking agencies have issued guidance on sound risk management practices for concentrations in commercial real estate lending. The particular focus is on exposure to commercial real estate loans that are dependent on the cash flow from the real estate held as collateral and that are likely to be sensitive to conditions in the commercial real estate market (as opposed to real estate collateral held as a secondary source of repayment or as an abundance of caution). The purpose of the guidance is not to limit a bank’s commercial real estate lending but to guide banks in developing risk management practices and maintaining capital levels commensurate with the level and nature of real estate concentrations. A bank that has experienced rapid growth in commercial real estate lending, has notable exposure to a specific type of commercial real estate loan, or is approaching or exceeding the following supervisory criteria may be identified for further supervisory analysis with respect to real estate concentration risk: total loans for construction, land development, and other land represent 100% or more of the bank'sbank’s total capital; or total commercial real estate loans (as defined in the guidance) greater than 300% of the Bank'sBank’s total capital and an increase in the bank'sbank’s commercial real estate portfolio of 50% or more during the prior 36 months. Regulatory Capital Rules Requirements.The Bank is required to maintain specified levels of regulatory capital under federal banking regulations. The capital adequacy requirements are quantitative measures established by regulation thatrequire the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of capital. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by bank regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the federal banking agencies implement the "Basel III" regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. "Basel III" refers to various documents released by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The capital regulations became effectiveCompany’s financial statements. Effective January 1, 2015, (with some provisionschanges transitioned into full effectiveness over twoon January 1, 2019), the Bank became subject to four years). The new requirementscapital regulations which created a newrequired minimum ratio for common equity Tier 1 ("CET1"(“CET1”) capital, increased the leverage and Tier 1 capital ratios, changedand total capital and the risk-weights ofminimum leverage ratio; established risk-weightings for assets and certain assetsoff-balance sheet items for purposes of the risk-based capital ratios, createdratios; required an additional capital conservation buffer over the minimum risk-based capital ratios,ratios; and changeddefined what qualifies as capital for purposes of meeting the capital requirements. These regulations implement the regulatory capital. capital reforms required by the Dodd Frank Act and the “Basel III” requirements.Under the new requirements,applicable capital regulations, the minimum capital ratios are: (1) a CET1 capital ratio of CET14.5% of risk-weighted assets; (2) a Tier 1 capital toratio of 6.0% of risk-weighted assets; (3) a total capital ratio of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets of 4.5%,assets; and (4) a leverage ratio (the ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0%, a ratio ofaverage total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%, and a leverage ratioadjusted assets) of 4.0%. The new requirements applyCET1 generally consists of common stock; retained earnings; accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) except in the case of banking organizations that have elected to exclude AOCI from regulatory capital, as discussed below; and certain minority interests; all subject to applicable regulatory adjustments and deductions. In addition to the Bank andcapital requirements, there were a number of changes in what constitutes regulatory capital compared to earlier regulations, subject to transition periods. These changes include the Company. phasing-out of certain instruments as qualifying capital. Mortgage servicing rights, certainand deferred tax assets and investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries over designated percentages of common stockCET1 are deducted from capital, subject to a two-year transition period. CET1 capital consists ofcapital. In addition, Tier 1 capital less all capital components that are not considered common equity. Tier 1 capital generally includes accumulated other comprehensive income,AOCI, which includes all unrealized gains and losses on available for sale debt and equity securities, subject to a two-year transition period.securities. Because of itsour asset size, Southern Bankwe had the one-time option and elected in the first quarter of calendar year 2015deciding whether to permanently opt-out of the inclusion of accumulated other comprehensive incomeunrealized gains and losses on available for sale debt and equity securities in itsour capital calculations,calculations. We made the decision to reduce the impact of market volatility on its regulatory capital levels. For a bank holding company with less than $15 billion in consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009, TARP and cumulative perpetual preferred stock included in Tier 1 capital prior to May 19, 2010 is grandfathered and included as Tier 1 capital under the new capital regulations. The new requirements also include changes in the risk-weights of certain assets to better reflect credit risk and other risk exposures. These include a 150% risk weight (up from 100%) for certain high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction loans and for non-residential mortgage loans that are 90 days past due or otherwise in nonaccrual status; a 20% (up from 0%) credit conversion factor for the unused portion of a commitment with an original maturity of one year or less that is not unconditionally cancellable (currently set at 0%); a 250% risk weight (up from 100%) for mortgage servicing and deferred tax assets that are not deducted from capital; and increased risk-weights (0% to 600%) for equity exposures.

The phase-in of the capital conservation buffer requirement is phased in beginning inbegan on January 1, 2016, atwhen a buffer greater than 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increaseswas required, which amount increased by 0.625% each year by that amount until fully implemented in January 2019. If the Company or the Bank fails to meet the buffer requirement it will be subject to restrictionswas fully implemented on the payment of dividends or discretionary bonuses and repurchases of stock. As ofJanuary 1, 2019. At June 30, 2017, Southern2022, the Bank and the Company meet all these new requirements, includingreported risk-based capital ratios meeting the full 2.5% capital conservation buffer,buffer.Under the prompt corrective action standards of the FRB, in order to be considered well-capitalized, the Bank must have a ratio of CET1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.5%, a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8%, a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 10%, and a leverage ratio of at least 5%; and in order to be considered adequately capitalized, it must have the minimum capital ratios described above. To be considered well-capitalized a bank holding company must have, on a consolidated basis, at least a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 8% and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10% and not be subject to a higher enforceable individualized capital requirement. At June 30, 2022, the Bank and the Company were categorized as if phased-in requirements had been fully in effect on that date. “well capitalized” under these prompt corrective action standards.Activities and Investments of Insured State-Chartered Banks. Subject to certain regulatory exceptions, the FDIA and FDIC regulations provide that an insured state-chartered bank may not, directly, or indirectly through a subsidiary, engage as "principal" in any activity that is not permissible for a national bank unless the FDIC has determined that such activities would pose no risk to the Deposit Insurance Fund and that the bank is in compliance with applicable regulatory capital requirements. Under regulations dealing with equity investments, an insured state bank generally may not directly or indirectly acquire or retain any equity investment of a type, or in an amount, that is not permissible for a national bank. An insured state bank is not prohibited from, among other things, (i) acquiring or retaining a majority interest in a subsidiary, (ii) investing as a limited partner in a partnership the sole purpose of which is direct or indirect investment in the acquisition, rehabilitation or new construction of a qualified housing project, provided that such limited partnership investments may not exceed 2% of the bank'sbank’s total assets, (iii) acquiring up to 10% of the voting stock of a company that solely provides or reinsures directors'directors’, trustees'trustees’ and officers'officers’ liability insurance coverage or bankers'bankers’ blanket bond group insurance coverage for insured depository institutions, and (iv) acquiring or retaining the voting shares of a depository institution if certain requirements are met. Affiliate Transactions. The Company and the Bank are separate and distinct legal entities. Various legal limitations restrict the Bank from lending to or otherwise engaging in transactions with the Company (or any other affiliate), generally limiting such transactions with an affiliate to 10% of the Bank'sBank’s capital and surplus and limiting all such transactions with all affiliates to 20% of the Bank'sBank’s capital and surplus. Such transactions, including extensions of credit, sales of securities or assets and provision of services, also must be on terms and conditions consistent with safe and sound banking practices, including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the Bank as those prevailing at the time for transactions with unaffiliated companies. Federally insured banks are subject, with certain exceptions, to certain additional restrictions (including collateralization) on extensions of credit to their parent holding companies or other affiliates, on investments in the stock or other securities of affiliates and on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral from any borrower. In addition, such banks are prohibited from engaging in certain tying arrangements in connection with any extension of credit or the providing of any property or service. Community Reinvestment Act. Banks are also subject to the provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 ("CRA"), which requires the appropriate federal bank regulatory agency, in connection with its regular examination of a bank, to assess the bank'sbank’s record in meeting the credit needs of the community serviced by the bank, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The regulatory agency'sagency’s assessment of the bank'sbank’s record is made available to the public. Further, such assessment is required of any bank which has applied, among other things, to establish a new branch office that will accept deposits, relocate an existing office or merge or consolidate with, or acquire the assets or assume the liabilities of, a financial institution. The Bank received a "satisfactory" rating during its most recent CRA examination. On May 5, 2022, the federal bank regulatory agencies overhauled the CRA and jointly issued a proposal to strengthen and modernize regulations implementing the CRA. The proposed regulations included major changes from the current regulation and will be effective on the first day of the first calendar quarter that begins at least 60 days after the publication date of the final rules. The new rules as proposed are intended to, (1) provide expanded access to credit, investment, and basic banking services in low- and moderate-income communities, (2) address changes in the banking industry, including internet and mobile banking, (3) yield greater clarity, consistency, and transparency, (4) tailor CRA evaluations and data collection to bank size and type and (4) maintain a unified approach amongst the regulating agencies. Dividends. Dividends from the Bank constitute the major source of funds for dividends that may be paid by the Company. The amount of dividends payable by the Bank to the Company depends upon the Bank'sBank’s earnings and capital position, and is limited by federal and state laws, regulations and policies. The amount of dividends actually paid by the Bank during any one period will be strongly affected by the Bank'sBank’s management policy of maintaining a strong capital position. Dividends can be restricted if the capital conservation buffer is not maintained as described under "Capital Rules"“Capital Rules” above. Federal law further provides A bank holding company is required to give the FRB prior written notice of any purchase or redemption of its outstanding equity securities if the gross consideration for the purchase or redemption, when combined with the net consideration paid for all such purchases or redemptions during the preceding 12 months, is equal to 10% or more of the company’s consolidated net worth. The FRB may disapprove such a purchase or redemption if it determines that no insured depository institution may make any capital distribution (whichthe proposal would include a cash dividend) if, after making the distribution, the institution would be "undercapitalized," as defined in the prompt corrective action regulations. Moreover, the federal bank regulatory agencies also have the general authority to limit the dividends paid by insured banks if such payments should be deemed to constitute an unsafe or unsound practice or would violate any law, regulation, FRB order, or any condition imposed by, or written agreement with, the FRB. This notification requirement does not apply to any company that meets the well-capitalized standard for bank holding companies, is well-managed, and unsound practice. is not subject to any unresolved supervisory issues.Under Missouri law, the Bank may pay dividends from certain undivided profits and may not pay dividends if its capital is impaired. Bank Secrecy Act / Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Bank is subject to the Bank Secrecy Act and other anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001. These laws and regulations require the Bank to implement policies, procedures, and controls to detect, prevent, and report money laundering and terrorist financing and to verify the identity of their customers. Violations of these requirements can result in substantial civil and criminal sanctions. In addition, provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act require the federal financial institution regulatory agencies to consider the effectiveness of a financial institution's anti-money laundering activities when reviewing mergers and acquisitions. Privacy Standards and Cybersecurity. The Bank is subject to federal regulations implementing the privacy protection provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. These regulations require the Bank to disclose its privacy policy, including informing consumers of their information sharing practices and informing consumers of their rights to opt out of certain practices. In addition, on November 18, 2021, the federal banking agencies announced the adoption of a final rule providing for new notification requirements for banking organizations and their service providers for significant cybersecurity incidents. Specifically, the new rule requires a banking organization to notify its primary federal regulator as soon as possible, and no later than 36 hours after, the banking organization determines that a “computer-security incident” rising to the level of a “notification incident” has occurred. Notification is required for incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the viability of a banking organization’s operations, its ability to deliver banking products and services, or the stability of the financial sector. Service providers are required under the rule to notify affected banking organization customers as soon as possible when the provider determines that it has experienced a computer-security incident that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the banking organization’s customers for four or more hours. Further, on July 26, 2023, the SEC adopted final rules that require public companies to promptly disclose material cybersecurity incidents on Form 8-K and detailed information regarding their cybersecurity risk management and governance on an annual basis on Form 10-K. Companies will be required to report on Form 8-K any cybersecurity incident they determine to be material within four business days of making that determination. In addition to incident reporting, the new rules will also require companies to describe their cybersecurity processes and governance. The Company Federal Securities Law. The stock of the Company is registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). As such, the Company is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading restrictions and other requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act. The Company'sCompany’s stock held by persons who are affiliates (generally officers, directors and principal stockholders) of the Company may not be resold without registration or unless sold in accordance with certain resale restrictions. If the Company meets specified current public information requirements, each affiliate of the Company is able to sell in the public market, without registration, a limited number of shares in any three-month period. The SEC has adopted rules under which, if certain conditions are met, the holders of 3% of voting shares of the Company who have held their shares for three years may require the Company to include their nominees for
board seats in proxy materials distributed by the Company. "Smaller reporting companies", like the Company, will be subject to these new rules after a three-year phase-in period.
Bank Holding Company Regulation. Bank holding companies are subject to comprehensive regulation by the FRB under the Bank Holding Company Act ("BHCA"(“BHCA”). As a bank holding company, the Company is required to file reports with the FRB and such additional information as the FRB may require, and the Company and its non-banking affiliates are subject to examination by the FRB. Under FRB policy, a bank holding company must serve as a source of financial strength for its subsidiary banks. Under this policy the FRB may require, and has required in the past, a holding company to contribute additional capital to an undercapitalized subsidiary bank. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, this policy is codified and rules to implement it are to be established. Under the BHCA, a bank holding company must obtain FRB approval before: (i) acquiring, directly or indirectly, ownership or control of any voting shares of another bank or bank holding company if, after such acquisition, it would own or control more than 5% of such shares (unless it already owns or controls the majority of such shares); (ii) acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of another bank or bank holding company; or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company. The Company is subject to the activity limitations imposed on bank holding companies that are not financial holding companies. The BHCA prohibits a bank holding company, with certain exceptions, from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company which is not a bank or bank holding company, or from engaging directly or indirectly in activities other than those of banking, managing or controlling banks, or providing services for its subsidiaries. The principal exceptions to these prohibitions involve certain activities which are permitted, by statute or by FRB regulation or order, have been identified as activities closely related to the business of banking or managing or controlling banks. The list of activities permitted by the FRB includes, among other things, operating a savings institution, mortgage company, finance company, credit card company or factoring company; performing certain data processing operations; providing certain investment and financial advice; underwriting and acting as an insurance agent for certain types of credit-related insurance; leasing property on a full-payout, non-operating basis; selling money orders, travelers'travelers’ checks and United States Savings Bonds; real estate and personal property appraising; providing tax planning and preparation services; and, subject to certain limitations, providing securities brokerage services for customers.
General. The Company and the Bank report their income on a fiscal year basis using the accrual method of accounting and are subject to federal income taxation in the same manner as other corporations with some exceptions, including particularly the Bank'sBank’s reserve for bad debts discussed below. The following discussion of tax matters is intended only as a summary and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to the Bank or the Company. Bad Debt Reserve. Historically, savings institutions, such as the Bank used to be, which met certain definitional tests primarily related to their assets and the nature of their business ("qualifying thrift"), were permitted to establish a reserve for bad debts and to make annual additions thereto, which may have been deducted in arriving at their taxable income. The Bank'sBank’s deductions with respect to their loans, which are generally loans secured by certain interests in real property, historically has been computed using an amount based on the Bank'sBank’s actual loss experience, in accordance with IRC Section 585(B)(2). Due to the Bank'sBank’s loss experience, the Bank generally recognized a bad debt deduction equal to their net charge-offs. The Bank'sBank’s average assets for the current year exceeded $500 million, thus classifying it as a large bank for purposes of IRC Section 585. Under IRC Section 585(c)(3), a bank that becomes a large bank must change its method of accounting from the reserve method to a specific charge-off method under IRC Section 166. The Bank'sBank’s deductions with respect to their loans are computed under the specific charge-off method. The specific charge-off method will behas been used in the current year and will be used in all subsequent tax years. Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax. The Internal Revenue Code imposes a tax on alternative minimum taxable income ("AMTI") at a rate of 20%. In addition, only 90% of AMTI can be offset by net operating loss carry-overs. AMTI is increased by an amount equal to 75% of the amount by which the Bank's adjusted current earnings exceeds its AMTI (determined without regard to this preference and prior to reduction for net operating losses).
Dividends-Received Deduction. The Company may exclude from its income 100% of dividends received from the Bank as a member of the same affiliated group of corporations. The corporate dividends-received deduction is generally 70%50% in the case of dividends received from unaffiliated corporations with which the Company and the Bank will not file a consolidated tax return, except that if the Company or the Bank owns more than 20% of the stock of a corporation distributing a dividend, then 80%65% of any dividends received may be deducted. General. Missouri-based banks, such as the Bank, are subject to a Missouri bank franchise and income tax. Bank Franchise Tax. The Missouri bank franchise tax is imposed on (i) the bank'sbank’s taxable income at the rate of 7%4.48%, less credits for certain Missouri taxes, including income taxes. However, the credits excludesexclude taxes paid for real estate, unemployment taxes, bank tax, and taxes on tangible personal property owned by the Bank and held for lease or rentals to others - income-based calculation; and (ii) the bank's net assets at a rate of .007%. Net assets are defined as total assets less deposits and the investment in greater than 50% owned subsidiaries - asset-based calculation. Income Tax. The Bank and its holding company and related subsidiaries are subject to an income tax that is imposed on the consolidated taxable income apportioned to Missouri at the rate of 6.25%4.0%. The return is filed on a consolidated basis by all members of the consolidated group including the Bank. Earnings Tax. Due to its loan activity and the acquisition of Kansas City banks in the most recent period, the Bank is subject to a Kansas City earnings tax. The tax is imposed on the Bank’s apportioned taxable income at a rate of 1.0%. Arkansas Taxation General. Due to its loan activity and the acquisitions of Arkansas banks in recent periods, the Bank is subject to an Arkansas income tax. The tax is imposed on the Bank'sBank’s apportioned taxable income at a rate of 6%6.2%. Illinois Taxation General. Due to its loan activity and the acquisitions of Illinois banks in recent periods, the Bank and its holding company and related subsidiaries are subject to an income tax that is imposed on the consolidated taxable income apportioned to Illinois at the rate of 9.5%. Kansas Taxation Privilege Tax. Due to its loan activity and the acquisitions of Kansas banks in the most recent period, the Bank is subject to a Kansas privilege tax. The tax is imposed on the Bank’s apportioned taxable income at a rate of 3.95%. Audits The Company’s Missouri income tax returns for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2016 through 2018 are under audit by the Missouri Department of Revenue. There have been no IRS or other state audits of the Company's Federal income tax returnsCompany’s federal or audits of the Bank's state income tax returns during the past five years.

Risks Relating to Our Business and Operating Environment
An investment in our securities is subject to inherent risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below together with all of the other information included in this report. In addition to the risks and uncertainties described below, other risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The value or market price of our securities could decline due to any of these identified or other risks, and you could lose all or part of your investment. WeRisks Relating to the Company and the Bank Risks Relating to Marco Economic Conditions Recent events in the financial services industry may failhave a material adverse effect on us. Recent events in the financial services industry, including the failures of two large U.S. banks in the span of three days in March 2023 and another failure in early May 2023, created industry-wide concerns related to realize allliquidity, deposit outflows, uninsured deposit concentrations and eroding consumer confidence in the banking system. These events occurred against the backdrop of the anticipated benefits of our acquisition activities. The success of our acquisition activities depend on,a rapidly rising interest rate environment which, among other things, has resulted in unrealized losses in longer duration securities and loans held by banks and more competition for bank deposits. These events have had, and may continue to have, an adverse impact on the market price of our ability to realize anticipated cost savings and to combinecommon stock.While the businessesU.S. Department of the companies in a manner that does not materially disruptTreasury, the existing customer relationshipsFederal Reserve and the FDIC acted to fully protect the insured and uninsured depositors of two of the companiesrecently failed banks, and the FDIC secured an agreement with a large financial institution for that institution to assume all the deposits of the third recently failed bank, no assurance can be given that these or similar actions will restore confidence in the banking system, and we may be further impacted by concerns regarding the soundness of other financial institutions, or other future bank failures or disruptions. Any loss of customer deposits could increase our cost of funding or negatively affect our overall liquidity or capital. The cost of resolving the recent bank failures may prompt the FDIC to charge higher deposit insurance premiums and/or impose special assessments on insured depository institutions. These events and any future similar events may also result in decreased revenues from customers. If we are unablechanges to achieve these objectives,laws or regulations governing bank holding companies and banks, including higher capital requirements, or the anticipated benefitsimposition of the acquisitions may not be realized fully, if at all,restrictions through supervisory or may take longer to realize than expected. Our allowance for loan losses may be insufficient to absorb losses in our loan portfolio.
Lending money is a substantial partenforcement activities, any of our business. Every loan carries a certain risk that it will not be repaid in accordance with its terms or that any underlying collateral will not be sufficient to ensure repayment. This risk is affected by, among other things:
· | cash flow of the borrower and/or the project being financed; |
· | in the case of a collateralized loan, the changes and uncertainties as to the future value of the collateral; |
· | the credit history of a particular borrower; |
· | changes in economic and industry conditions; and |
· | the duration of the loan. |
We maintain an allowance for loan losses which we believe is appropriate to provide for potential losses in our loan portfolio. The amount of this allowance is determined by our management through a periodic review and consideration of several factors, including, but not limited to:
· | the quality, size and diversity of the loan portfolio; |
· | evaluation of non-performing loans; |
· | historical default and loss experience; |
· | historical recovery experience; |
· | risk characteristics of the various classifications of loans; and |
· | the amount and quality of collateral, including guarantees, securing the loans. |
If loan losses exceed the allowance for loan losses, our business, financial condition and profitability may suffer.
If our nonperforming assets increase, our earnings will be adversely affected.
At June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, our nonperforming assets were $6.3 million and $9.0 million, respectively, or 0.37% and 0.64% of total assets, respectively. Our nonperforming assets adversely affect our net income in various ways:
· | We do not accrue interest income on nonaccrual loans, nonperforming investment securities, or other real estate owned. |
· | We must provide for probable loan losses through a current period charge to the provision for loan losses. |
· | Non-interest expense increases when we must write down the value of properties in our other real estate owned portfolio to reflect changing market values or recognize other-than-temporary impairment on nonperforming investment securities. |
· | There are legal fees associated with the resolution of problem assets, as well as carrying costs, such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance fees related to our other real estate owned. |
· | The resolution of nonperforming assets requires the active involvement of management, which can divert management's attention from more profitable activities. |
If additional borrowers become delinquent and do not pay their loans and we are unable to successfully manage our nonperforming assets, our losses and troubled assets could increase significantly, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
us. Changes in economic conditions, particularly a furtheran economic slowdown in southern Missouri or northern Arkansas, could hurt our business. Our business is directly affected by market conditions, trends in industry and finance, legislative and regulatory changes, and changes in governmental monetary and fiscal policies and inflation, all of which are beyond our control. In 2008, the housing and real estate sectors experienced an economic slowdown. FurtherFuture deterioration in economic conditions, particularly within our primary market area in southern Missouri and northern Arkansas, could result in the following consequences, among others, any of which could hurt our business materially:
· | ● | loan delinquencies may increase; |
· | ● | problem assets and foreclosures may increase; |
· | ● | demand for our products and services may decline; |
· | ● | loan collateral may decline in value, in turn reducing a customer'scustomer’s borrowing power and reducing the value of collateral securing our loans; and |
· | ● | the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us. |
Downturns in the real estate markets in our primary market area could hurt our business. Our business activities and credit exposure are primarily concentrated in southern Missouri and northern Arkansas. While we did not and do not have a sub-prime lending program, our residential real estate, construction and land loan portfolios, our commercial and multifamilymulti-family loan portfolios and certain of our other loans could be affected by the downturn in the residential real estate market. We anticipate that significant declines in the real estate markets in our primary market area would hurt our business and would mean that collateral for our loans would hold less value. As a result, our ability to recover on defaulted loans by selling the underlying real estate would be diminished, and we would be more likely to suffer losses on defaulted loans. The events and conditions described in this risk factor could therefore have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Inflationary pressures and rising prices may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Inflation has risen sharply since the end of 2021 to levels not seen in more than 40 years. Small and medium-sized businesses may be impacted more during periods of high inflation, as they are not able to leverage economies of scale to mitigate cost pressures compared to larger businesses. Consequently, the ability of our business customers to repay their loans may deteriorate, and in some cases this deterioration may occur quickly, which would adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, a prolonged period of inflation could cause wages and other costs to the Company to increase, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. The economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could continue to adversely affect us. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the global and national economy and certain industries and geographies in which our customers reside and operate. Because of its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company and its customers, employees and third-party service providers. The extent of this impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain. Additionally, the responses of various governmental and nongovernmental authorities and consumers to the pandemic may have material long-term effects on the Company and its customers, which are difficult to quantify in the near-term or long-term. We could be subject to a number of risks as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. These risks include, but are not limited to, changes in demand for our products and services; increased loan losses or other impairments in our loan portfolios and increases in our allowance for loan losses; a decline in collateral for our loans, especially real estate; unanticipated unavailability of employees; increased cyber security risks to the extent employees work remotely; a prolonged weakness in economic conditions; and increased costs as we and our regulators, customers and third-party service providers adapt to evolving pandemic conditions. Severe weather and other natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism, new public health issues or other adverse external events could harm our business. Severe weather and other natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism, new public health issues or other adverse external events could have a significant impact on our ability to conduct business. Such events could harm our operations through interference with communications, including the interruption or loss of our computer systems, which could prevent or impede us from gathering deposits, originating loans and processing and controlling the flow of business, as well as through the destruction of our facilities and our operational, financial and management information systems. There is no assurance that our business continuity and disaster recovery program can adequately mitigate these risks. Such events could also affect the stability of our deposit base, cause significant property damage, adversely affect our employees, adversely impact the values of collateral securing our loans and/or interfere with our borrowers’ abilities to repay their debt obligations to us.
Risks Relating to Credit and Lending Activities Our allowance for credit losses may be insufficient to absorb losses in our loan portfolio. Lending money is a substantial part of our business. Every loan carries a certain risk that it will not be repaid in accordance with its terms or that any underlying collateral will not be sufficient to ensure repayment. This risk is affected by, among other things: | ● | cash flow of the borrower and/or the project being financed; |
| ● | in the case of a collateralized loan, the changes and uncertainties as to the future value of the collateral; |
| ● | the credit history of a particular borrower; |
| ● | changes in economic and industry conditions; and |
| ● | the duration of the loan. |
We maintain an allowance for credit losses which we believe is appropriate to provide for expected losses over the life of loans in our portfolio. The amount of this allowance is determined by our management through a periodic review and consideration of several factors, including, but not limited to: | ● | historical default and loss experience; |
| ● | historical recovery experience; |
| ● | evaluation of non-performing loans; |
| ● | the amount and quality of collateral, including guarantees, securing the loans. |
| ● | risk characteristics of the various classifications of loans; and |
| ● | the rate of growth, quality, size and diversity of the loan portfolio; |
If actual credit losses exceed the projections modeled in arriving at our estimate of the allowance for credit losses, our business, financial condition and profitability may suffer. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU), 2016-13 “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” on June 16, 2016, which changed previous allowance for loan losses methodology to consider current expected credit losses (CECL). This accounting pronouncement was applicable to us effective for our fiscal year beginning July 1, 2020. The federal banking regulators, including the Federal Reserve have adopted rules that gives a banking organization the option to phase in over a three-year or five-year period the day-one adverse effects of CECL on its regulatory capital. We elected the five-year period for our Company. CECL has substantially changed how we calculate our allowance for credit losses. We have adopted CECL and prepared our consolidated financial statements based on the required methodology; however we cannot predict how it will affect our results of operations and financial condition over time, including our regulatory capital. In general, expectations are that the CECL methodology will lead to increased volatility in banking organizations’ required level of allowances at different points in the economic cycle, and in their results of operations. If our nonperforming assets increase, our earnings will be adversely affected. At June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, our nonperforming assets were $11.3 million and $6.3 million, respectively, or 0.26% and 0.20% of total assets, respectively. Our nonperforming assets adversely affect our net income in various ways: | ● | We do not accrue interest income on nonaccrual loans, nonperforming investment securities, or other real estate owned. |
| ● | We must provide for expected credit losses through a current period charge to the provision for credit losses. |
| ● | Non-interest expense increases when we must write down the value of properties in our other real estate owned portfolio to reflect changing market values. |
| ● | There are legal fees associated with the resolution of problem assets, as well as carrying costs, such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance fees related to our other real estate owned. |
| ● | The resolution of nonperforming assets requires the active involvement of management, which can divert management’s attention from more profitable activities. |
If additional borrowers become delinquent and do not pay their loans and we are unable to successfully manage our nonperforming assets, our losses and troubled assets could increase significantly, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. See also “Regulation – Regulatory Capital Requirements.” Our construction lending exposes us to significant risk. Our construction loan portfolio, which totaled $106.8$550.1 million, or 7.30%15.4% of loans, net, at June 30, 2017,2023, includes residential and non-residential construction and development loans. This type ofConstruction and development lending, especially non-residential construction and development lending, is generally considered to have more complex credit risks than traditional single-familyone-to-four-family residential lending because the principal is concentrated in a limited number of loans with repayment dependent on the successful completion and sale, leasing, or operation of the related real estate project. Consequently, these loans are often more sensitive to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the general economy than other real estate loans. These loans are generally less predictable and more difficult to evaluate and monitor and collateral may be difficult to dispose of in a market decline. Additionally, we may experience significant construction loan losses because independent appraisers or project engineers inaccurately estimate the cost andor value of construction loan projects.Deterioration in our construction portfolio could result in increases in the provision for loancredit losses and an increase in charge-offs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Our loan portfolio possesses increased risk due to our percentage of commercial real estate and commercial business loans. At June 30, 2017, 58.1 % 2023, 60.5% of our loans, net, consisted of commercial real estate and commercial business loans to small and mid-sized businesses, generally located in our primary market area, which are the types of businesses that have a heightened vulnerability to local economic conditions. Over the last ten years, we have increased this type of lending from 49.3%57.7% of our portfolio at June 30, 2007,2013, to 60.5% of our portfolio at June 30, 2023, in order to improve the yield on our assets. At June 30, 2017,2023, our loan portfolio included $603.9 million$1.6 billion of commercial real estate loans and $247.2 $599.0 million of commercial business loans compared to $77.7 million$1.1 billion and $76.1 $441.6 million, respectively, at June 30, 2007.2022. The credit risk related to these types of loans is considered to be greater than the risk related to one- to four-family residential loans because the repayment of commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans typically is dependent onthe successful operation and income stream of the borrower'sborrower’s business or the real estate securing the loans as collateral, which can be significantly affected by economic conditions. Additionally, commercial loans typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers compared to residential real estate loans. Commercial loans not collateralized by real estate are often secured by collateral that may depreciate over time, be difficult to appraise and fluctuate in value (such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment). If loans that are collateralized by real estate become troubled and the value of the real estate has been significantly impaired, then we may not be able to recover the full contractual amount of principal and interest that we anticipated at the time we originated the loan, which could require us to increase our provision for loancredit losses and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Commercial loans not collateralized by real estate are often secured by collateral that may depreciate over time, be difficult to appraise and fluctuate in value (such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment).Several of our commercial borrowers have more than one commercial real estate or business loan outstanding with us. Consequently, an adverse development with respect to onea single loan or one credit relationship can expose us to significantly greater risk of loss compared to an adverse development with respect to anya single one- to four-family residential mortgage loan. Finally, if we foreclose on a commercial real estate loan, our holding period for the collateral, if any, typically is longer than for one- to four-family residential property because there are fewer potential purchasers of the collateral. Since we plan to continue to increase our originations of these loans, it may be necessary to increase the level of our allowance for loancredit losses due to the increased risk characteristics associated with these types of loans. Any increase to our allowance forprovision credit loan losses would adversely affect our earnings.operating results and financial condition. Any delinquent payments or the failure to repay these loans would hurt our earnings. operating results and financial condition.Our loan portfolio possesses risk due to our agricultural lending. Included in the commercial real estate loans described above are agricultural real estate loans totaling $140.0 $238.1 million, or 10.0% 6.7% of our loan portfolio, net, at June 30, 2017.2023. Agricultural real estate lending involves a greater degree of risk and typically involves larger loans to single borrowers than lending on single-familyone-to-four-family residences. Payments on agricultural real estate loans are dependent on the profitable operation or management of the farm property securing the loan. The success of the farm may be affected by many factors outside the control of the farm borrower, including adverse weather conditions that prevent the planting of a crop or limit crop yields (such as hail, drought and floods), loss of livestock due to disease or other factors, declines in market prices for agricultural products (both domestically and internationally) and the impact of government regulations (including changes in price supports, subsidies, and environmental regulations). In addition, many farms are dependent on a limited number of key individuals whose injury or death may significantly affect the successful operation of the farm. If the cash flow from a farming operation is diminished, the borrower'sborrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired. The primary agricultural activity in our market areas is livestock, dairy, poultry, rice, timber, soybeans, wheat, melons, corn, and cotton.cotton. Accordingly, adverse circumstances affecting these activities could have an adverse effect on our agricultural real estate loan portfolio. Our agricultural real estate lending has grown significantly since June 30, 2007,2013 when these loans totaled $9.1 $53.0 million, or 2.9% 8.2% of our loan portfolio, and we intend to continue to grow this portion of our loan portfolio. Included in the commercial business loans described above are agricultural production and equipment loans. At June 30, 2017,2023, these loans totaled $85.7$138.3 million, or 6.2%3.9%, of our loan portfolio, net. As with agricultural real estate loans, the repayment of operating loans is dependent on the successful operation or management of the farm property. The same risk applies to agricultural operating loans which are unsecured or secured by rapidly depreciating assets such as farm equipment or assets such as livestock or crops. Any repossessed collateral for a defaulted loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation to the collateral. Our agricultural operating loans have also grown significantly since June 30, 2007,2013, when such loans totaled $15.9$47.4 million, or 5.1%7.3% of our loan portfolio. At times, various agricultural commodity prices have been negatively impacted by recent actions taken, or which are feared could be taken, by governments in markets where U.S. agricultural products are exported. Declines in the pricing available to U.S. farmers negatively impacts cash flows for these borrowers to service their debts, and negatively affects the value of real estate and equipment which may be pledged as collateral to secure borrowings. In addition to the various risks to farm operations and management noted above, agricultural loans often are structured for annual payments, to coincide with borrower cash flows. As compared to other loan types which generally require monthly payments, an annual payment schedule may increase risk that the Company would not timely identify a borrower experiencing financial difficulties, hindering its ability to work to mitigate losses. Continued growth of our commercial real estate and commercial business loan portfolios may increase the risk of credit defaults in the future. Due to our increasing emphasis on commercial real estate and commercial business lending, a substantial amount of the loans in our commercial real estate and commercial business portfolios and our lending relationships are of relatively recent origin. In general, loans do not begin to show signs of credit deterioration or default until they have been outstanding for some period of time, a process referred to as "seasoning."“seasoning.” A portfolio of older loans will usually behave more predictably than a newer portfolio. Commercial real estate and commercial business loans naturally create portfolio “churn” as loans are originated and repaid. As a result, becauseour portfolio consists of a largemix of seasoned and unseasoned loans. We believe that our underwriting practices are sound and based on industry standards and best practices. However, a significant portion of our loan portfolio is relatively new,new. Therefore, the current level of delinquencies and defaults may not be representative of the level that will prevail whenas the portfolio becomes more seasoned, which may be higher than current levels. If delinquencies and defaults increase, we may be required to increase our provision for loan losses, which would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. As we approachWe currently exceed thresholds defined in interagency guidance on commercial real estate concentrations, and as such, we may incur additional expense or slow the growth of certain categories of commercial real estate lending. The federal banking agencies have issued guidance on sound risk management practices for concentrations in commercial real estate lending (see "REGULATION"“REGULATION – Guidance on Commercial Real Estate Concentrations”). For the purposes of this guidance, "commercial“commercial real estate"estate” includes, among other types, multifamilymulti-family residential loans and non-owner occupied nonresidential loans, two categories which have been a source of loan growth for the Company. A bank that has experienced rapid growth in commercial real estate lending, has notable exposure to a specific type of commercial real estate loan, or is approaching or exceeding the following supervisory criteria may be identified for further supervisory analysis with respect to real estate concentration risk: total loans for construction land development and other land representing 100% or more of the bank'sbank’s tier 1 regulatory capital plus the allowance for loan losses includable in total regulatory capital; or total commercial real estate loans (as defined in the guidance) that exceed 300% of the bank'sbank’s tier 1 regulatory capital plus the allowance for loan losses includable in total regulatory capital and the bank'sbank’s commercial real estate portfolio has increased by 50% or more during the prior 36 months. During fiscal 2017, the Bank exceeded the 300% threshold for non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans (as defined in the guidance) for the first time as a percentage of tier 1 regulatory capital plus the allowance for credit losses includable in total regulatory capital, for the first timepeaking at September 30, 2016, and remained above the threshold for most of the fiscal year, before declining to 271% at June 30, 2017. The Bank's highest level during the fiscal year was 303%305% at December 31, 2016. The lower level atAt times since June 30, 2017, was the result of additional capital invested in the Bank byhas been below the Company following300% threshold, and reached a low of 260% of tier 1 regulatory capital plus the June at-the-market common stock offering completed by the Company, and from additionalallowance for credit losses includable in total regulatory capital resulting from the acquisition and merger of Tammcorp, Inc., and its bank subsidiary, Capaha Bank, with and into Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., while Capaha Bank held a lower percentage of its loans inat September 30, 2019. However, non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans. The Company's non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans peaked at 293%portfolio growth (inclusive of acquisitions) during fiscal years 2022 and 2023 has resulted in the Company reporting 330% of tier 1 regulatory capital plus the allowance for loan losses includable in total regulatory capital at December 31, 2016, before decliningJune 30, 2023, as compared to 256%313% at June 30, 2017, with this decline also attributable to additional capital provided by the at-the-market common offering completed by the2022. The Bank and Company in June, as well as the Tammcorp, Inc., acquisition. The Company may again see its non-owner occupied commercial real estate lending grow as a percentage of total regulatory capital, or it may slow the growth of this type of lending activity. Should we continue to grow this category of our loan portfolio, we may incur additional expense to meet the heightenedincreasing supervisory expectations related to this lending activity.If we slow the growth of commercial real estate loans generally, or particular concentrations of borrowers or categories of properties within that definition, we may be negatively impacted in terms of our asset growth, net interest margin and earnings, leverage, or other targets. Credit losses on investment securities could require charges to earnings, which could negatively impact our results of operations. In assessing the potential credit losses of investment securities, we are required to evaluate instances in which the fair value of particular securities are less than their amortized cost basis. The evaluation considers factors including; past events, current conditions, and reasonable & supportable forecasts, and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the security until maturity. A qualitative determination is acceptable. We currently hold additional collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) for which credit losses are not currently expected, based on our best judgment using information currently available. Risks Relating to Market Interest Rates Changes in interest rates may negatively affect our earnings and the value of our assets. Our earnings and cash flows depend substantially upon our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on interest-earningsinterest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowed funds. Interest rates are sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control, including general economic conditions, competition and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies and, in particular, the policies of the Federal Reserve Board. Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, could influence not only the interest we receive on loans and investment securities and the amount of interest we pay on deposits and borrowings, but these changes could also affect: (i) our ability to originate loans and obtain deposits; (ii) the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities, including our securities portfolio; and (iii) the average duration of our interest-earning assets. This also includes the risk that interest-earning assets may be more responsive to changes in interest rates than interest-bearing liabilities, or vice versa (repricing risk), the risk that the individual interest rates or rate indices underlying various interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities may not change in the same degree over a given time period (basis risk), and the risk of changing interest rate relationships across the spectrum of interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability maturities (yield curve risk), including a prolonged flat or inverted yield curve environment. Any substantial, unexpected, prolonged change in market interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. See also, Part II, Item 7(a) “Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis”.We may incur losses on our securities portfolio due to factors beyond our control, including changes in interest rates. Factors beyond our control can significantly influence the fair value of securities in our portfolio and can cause potential adverse changes to the fair value of these securities. These factors include, but are not limited to, rating agency actions in respect of the securities, defaults by, or other adverse events affecting the issuer or the underlying securities, and changes in market interest rates and continued instability in the capital markets. Any of these factors, among others, could cause other-than-temporary impairments and realized and/or unrealized losses in future periods and declines in other comprehensive income, which could have a material effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The process for determining whether impairment of a security is other-than-temporary usually requires complex, subjective judgments about the future financial performance and liquidity of the issuer and any collateral underlying the security to assess the probability of receiving all contractual principal and interest payments on the security. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the declines in market value will not result in other-than-temporary impairments of these assets and lead to accounting charges that could have a material adverse effect on our net income and capital levels. For the year ended June 30, 2023, we did not incur any other-than-temporary impairments on our securities portfolio. The replacement of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) as a benchmark interest rate may adversely impact us. We have certain loans, investment securities and borrowings indexed to USD LIBOR to calculate the interest rate. ICE Benchmark Administration, the authorized and regulated administrator of LIBOR, ended publication of the one-week and two-month USD LIBOR tenors on December 31, 2021, and ended publication of the remaining USD LIBOR tenors on June 30, 2023. The Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act (the “LIBOR Act”) was enacted in March 2022 to permit financing agreements that contain a LIBOR-based benchmark without adequate “fallback provisions” to be automatically replaced by a benchmark recommended by the Federal Reserve. In January 2023, the Federal Reserve adopted a final rule implementing the LIBOR Act that, among other things, identifies the applicable SOFR-based benchmark replacements under the LIBOR Act. SOFR is considered to be a risk-free rate and USD LIBOR was a risk weighted rate. Thus, SOFR tends to be a lower rate than USD LIBOR because SOFR does not contain a risk component. This difference may negatively impact our net interest margin. The implementation of a substitute index or indices for the calculation of interest rates under our loan agreements with our borrowers or under our existing borrowings may result in our incurring significant expenses in effecting the transition, may result in reduced loan balances if borrowers do not accept the substitute index or indices, and may result in disputes or litigation with customers and creditors over the appropriateness or comparability to LIBOR of the substitute index or indices, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. We began to use SOFR as a substitute for USD LIBOR for new originations in calendar year 2021. As of June 30, 2023, AFS securities in our portfolio with a face amount of $97.9 million were tied to USD LIBOR. Risks Relating to Liquidity Liquidity risk could impair our ability to fund operations and jeopardize our financial condition. Liquidity is essential to our business. An inability to raise funds through deposits, borrowings, the sale of loans and other sources could have a substantial negative effect on our liquidity. Our access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance our activities or the terms of which are acceptable to us could be impaired by factors that affect us specifically or the financial services industry or economy in general. Factors that could detrimentally impact our access to liquidity sources include a decrease in the level of our business activity as a result of a downturn in the markets in which our loans are concentrated or an adverse regulatory action against us. Our ability to borrow could also be impaired by factors that are not specific to us, such as a disruption in the financial markets or negative views and expectations about the prospects for the financial services industry generally. Risks Relating to Acquisition Activities We may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of our acquisition activities. The success of our acquisition activities depends on, among other things, our ability to realize anticipated cost savings and to combine the businesses of the companies in a manner that does not materially disrupt the existing customer relationships of the companies or result in decreased revenues from customers. If we are unable to achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits of the acquisitions may not be realized fully, if at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. We have pursued a strategy of supplementing internal growth by acquiring other financial companies or their assets and liabilities that we believe will help fulfill our strategic objectives and enhance our earnings. There are risks associated with this strategy, including the following: · | ● | We may be exposed to potential asset quality issues or unknown or contingent liabilities of the banks, businesses, assets and liabilities we acquire. If these issues or liabilities exceed our estimates, our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected; |
· | ● | Prices at which acquisitions can be made fluctuate with market conditions. We have experienced times during which acquisitions could not be made in specific markets at prices we considered acceptable and expect that we will experience this condition in the future; |
· | ● | The acquisition of other entities generally requires integration of systems, procedures and personnel of the acquired entity into us to make the transaction economically successful. This integration process is complicated and time consuming and can also be disruptive to the customers of the acquired business. If the integration process is not conducted successfully and with minimal effect on the acquired business and its customers, we may not realize the anticipated economic benefits of particular acquisitions within the expected time frame, or at all, and we may lose customers or employees of the acquired business. We may also experience greater than anticipated customer losses even if the integration process is successful. |
· | ● | To the extent our costs of an acquisition exceed the fair value of the net assets acquired, the acquisition will generate goodwill. We are required to assess our goodwill for impairment at least annually, and any goodwill impairment charge could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition; |
· | ● | To finance an acquisition, we may borrow funds, thereby increasing our leverage and diminishing our liquidity, or raise additional capital, which could dilute the interests of our existing shareholders; and |
· | ● | We have completed threesix acquisitions within the past five years and opened additional banking offices in the past few years thatsince June 2017 which enhanced our rate of growth. We do not necessarily expect to be able to maintain our past rate of growth, and may not be able to grow at all in the future. |
Risks Relating to Future Growth Our growth or future losses may require us to raise additional capital in the future, but that capital may not be available when it is needed or the cost of that capital may be very high. We are required by federal and state regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support our operations. While we anticipate that our capital resources will satisfy our capital requirements for the foreseeable future, we may at some point need to raise additional capital to support our operations or continued growth, both internally and through acquisitions. Any capital we obtain may result in the dilution of the interests of existing holders of our common stock, or otherwise adversely affect your investment. Our ability to raise additional capital, if needed, will depend on conditions in the capital markets at that time, which are outside our control, and on our financial condition and performance. Accordingly, we cannot make assurances of our ability to raise additional capital if needed, or if the terms will be acceptable to us. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed, our ability to further expand our operations through internal growth and acquisitions could be materially impaired and our financial condition and liquidity could be materially and adversely affected. Risks Relating to Regulation Legislative or regulatory changes or actions, or significant litigation, could adversely impact us or the businesses in which we are engaged. The financial services industry is extensively regulated. We are subject to extensive state and federal regulation, supervision and legislation that govern almost all aspects of our operations. Laws and regulations may change from time to time and are primarily intended for the protection of consumers, depositors and the deposit insurance funds, and not to benefit our shareholders. The impact of any changes to laws and regulations or other actions by regulatory agencies may negatively impact us or our ability to increase the value of our business. Regulatory authorities have extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities, including the imposition of restrictions on the operation of an institution, the classification of assets by the institution and the adequacy of an institution'sinstitution’s allowance for loan losses. Additionally, actions by regulatory agencies or significant litigation against us could require us to devote significant time and resources to defending our business and may lead to penalties that materially affect us and our shareholders. Non-compliance with USA Patriot Act, Bank Secrecy Act, or other laws and regulations could result in fines or sanctions. The USA Patriot and Bank Secrecy Acts require financial institutions to develop programs to prevent financial institutions from being used for money laundering and terrorist activities. If such activities are detected, financial institutions are obligated to file suspicious activity reports with the U.S. Treasury’s Office of Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. These rules require financial institutions to establish procedures for identifying and verifying the identity of customers seeking to open new financial accounts. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in fines or sanctions. Several banking institutions have received large fines for non-compliance with these laws and regulations. Although we have developed policies and procedures designed to assist in compliance with these laws and regulations, no assurance can be given that these policies and procedures will be effective in preventing violations of these laws and regulations. We operate in a highly regulated environment and may be adversely affected by changes in federal and state laws and regulations, some of which is expected to increase our costs of operations. We are currently subject to extensive examination, supervision and comprehensive regulation by the FDIC, the Missouri Division of Finance, and the Federal Reserve. The FDIC, the Missouri Division of Finance, and the Federal Reserve govern the activities in which we may engage, primarily for the protection of depositors and the Deposit Insurance Fund. These regulatory authorities have extensive discretion, including the ability to restrict an institution’s operations, require the institution to reclassify assets, determine the adequacy of the institution’s allowance for loan losses and determine the level of deposit insurance premiums assessed. Any change in such regulation and oversight, whether in the form of regulatory policy, new regulations or legislation or additional deposit insurance premiums could have a material adverse impact on our operations. Because our business is highly regulated, the laws and applicable regulations are subject to frequent change. See “Government Supervision and Regulation.” The Federal Reserve and the Missouri Division of Finance regulate the activities in which the Bank may engage primarily for the protection of depositors and not for the protection or benefit of stockholders. In addition, new laws and regulations may increase our costs of regulatory compliance and of doing business and otherwise affect our operations. New laws and regulations may significantly affect the markets in which we do business, the markets for and value of our loans and investments, the fees we can charge and our ongoing operations, costs and profitability. Regulatory changes regarding card interchange fee income do not currently apply to us but could change in the future. Further, legislative proposals limiting our rights as a creditor could result in credit losses or increased expense in pursuing our remedies as a creditor. Risks Relating to Technology and Cyber Security and Other Operational Matters We are subject to security and operational risks relating to our use of technology that could damage our reputation and business. Security breaches in our mobile and consumer and commercial internet banking activities and wealth management or deferred tax assetsmobile access could require chargesexpose us to earnings,possible liability and damage our reputation. Any compromise of our security also could deter customers from using our internet banking services that involve the transmission of confidential information. We rely on internet security systems to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of data. These precautions may not protect our systems from compromises or breaches of our security measures, which could negativelydamage our reputation and business. We face significant operational risks because the financial services business involves a high volume of transactions and increased reliance on technology, including risk of loss related to cyber-security breaches. We operate in diverse markets and rely on the ability of our employees and systems to process a high number of transactions and to collect, process, transmit and store significant amounts of confidential information regarding our customers, employees and others and concerning our own business, operations, plans and strategies. Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from our operations, including but not limited to, the risk of fraud by employees or persons outside our company, the execution of unauthorized transactions by employees, errors relating to transaction processing and technology, systems failures or interruptions, breaches of our internal control systems and compliance requirements, and business continuation and disaster recovery. Insurance coverage may not be available for such losses, or where available, such losses may exceed insurance limits. This risk of loss also includes the potential legal actions that could arise as a result of operational deficiencies or as a result of non-compliance with applicable regulatory standards or customer attrition due to potential negative publicity. In addition, we outsource some of our data processing to certain third-party providers. If these third-party providers encounter difficulties, including as a result of cyber-attacks or information security breaches, or if we have difficulty communicating with them, our ability to adequately process and account for transactions could be affected, and our business operations could be adversely affected. The financial services industry has noted recent increases in electronic fraudulent activity, attempted security breaches, and cyber-attacks, including attempts to initiate fraudulent activity through consumer, commercial, and public unit accounts. We are regularly the target of attempted cyber and other security threats and must continuously monitor and develop our information technology networks and infrastructure to prevent, detect, address and mitigate the risk of unauthorized access, misuse, computer viruses and other events that could have a security impact. Insider or employee cyber and security threats are increasingly a concern for companies, including ours. We are not aware that we have experienced any material misappropriation, loss or other unauthorized disclosure of confidential or personally identifiable information as a result of a cybersecurity breach or other act, however, some of our clients may have been affected by these breaches, which could increase their risks of identity theft, credit card fraud and other fraudulent activity that could involve their accounts with us. In the event of a breakdown in our internal control systems, improper operation of systems or improper employee actions, or a breach of our security systems, including if confidential or proprietary information were to be mishandled, misused or lost, we could suffer financial loss, face regulatory action, civil litigation and/or suffer damage to our reputation. Our information technology systems may be subject to failure, interruption, or security breaches. Information technology systems are critical to our business. We use various technology systems to manage our customer relationships, general ledger, securities investments, deposits, and loans. We have established policies and procedures to prevent or limit the impact of system failures, interruptions, and security breaches, including privacy breaches and cyber-attacks, but such events may still occur or may not be adequately addressed if they do occur. There have been increasing efforts by third parties to breach data security at financial institutions. There have been a number of instances involving financial services and consumer-based companies reporting the unauthorized disclosure of client or customer information or the destruction or theft of corporate data. Although we take protective measures, the security of our results of operations. In assessingcomputer systems, software, and networks may be vulnerable to breaches, unauthorized access, misuse, computer viruses, or other malicious code and cyber-attacks that could have an impact on information security. Because the impairment of investment securities,techniques used to cause security breaches change frequently, we considermay be unable to proactively address these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures.Information security risks continue to increase due to new technologies, the length of time and extent to which the fair valueincreasing use of the securitiesInternet and telecommunication technologies (including mobile devices) to conduct financial and other business transactions, and the increasing sophistication and activities of organized crime, perpetrators of fraud, hackers, and others. The Company makes significant investments in various technology to identify and prevent intrusions into its information system. The Company also has been less thanpolicies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the costeffect of failure, interruption or security breach of its information systems and performs regular audits using both internal and outside resources. However, there can be no assurances that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur, or if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. In addition to unauthorized access, denial-of-service attacks, or other operational disruptions could overwhelm Company websites and prevent the Company from adequately serving customers. Should any of the securities,Company’s systems become compromised or customer information be obtained by unauthorized parties, the reputation of the Company could be damaged, relationships with existing customers may be impaired, and the Company could be subject to lawsuits, all of which could result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and near-term prospectsresults of operations. The Company continually encounters technological change. The financial services industry is continually undergoing rapid technological change with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services, including the entrance of financial technology companies offering new financial service products. The Company regularly upgrades or replaces core technological systems. The effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to better serve customers and reduce costs. The Company’s future success depends, in part, upon its ability to address the needs of its customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands, as well as to create additional efficiencies in the Company’s operations. Many of the issuers, whetherCompany’s competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements. The Company may encounter significant problems or may not be able to effectively implement new technology-driven products, including the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditionscore deposit system, and whether weservices, or be successful in marketing the new products and services to its customers. These problems might include significant time delays, cost overruns, loss of key people, and technological system failures. Failure to successfully keep pace with technological change affecting the financial services industry or failure to successfully complete the replacement of the core deposit system, or another core technological system, could have a material adverse effect on the intentCompany’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s operations rely on certain external vendors. The Company relies on third-party vendors to sellprovide products and services necessary to maintain day-to-day operations. For example, the debt securityCompany outsources a portion of its information systems, communication, data management, and transaction processing to third parties. Accordingly, the Company is exposed to the risk that these vendors might not perform in accordance with the contracted arrangements or will be requiredservice level agreements for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. In fiscal 2009, we incurred charges to recognize the other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) of available-for-sale investments related to investments in Freddie Mac preferred stock ($304,000 impairment realizedchanges in the first quarter of fiscal 2009)vendor’s organizational structure, financial condition, support for existing products and a pooled trust preferred collateralized debt obligation, Trapeza CDO IV, Ltd., class C2 ($375,000 impairment realized in the second quarter of fiscal 2009). We currently hold three additional collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) which have not been deemed other-than-temporarily impaired, based on our best judgment using information currently available. Under current accounting standards, goodwill and certain other intangible assets with indeterminate lives are no longer amortized but, instead, are assessed for impairment periodicallyservices, or when impairment indicators are present. As of June 30, 2017, we determined that none of our goodwill or other intangible assets was impaired.
Deferred tax assets are only recognizedstrategic focus. Such failure to perform could be disruptive to the extent it is more likely than not they will be realized. Should our management determine it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized,Company’s operations, which could have a valuation allowance with a charge to earnings would be reflected in the period. At June 30, 2017, our net deferred tax asset was $1.9 million, none of which was disallowed for regulatory capital purposes. Basedmaterially adverse impact on the levels of taxable income in prior years and our expectation of profitability in the current year and future years, management has determined that no valuation allowance was required at June 30, 2017. If we are required in the future to take a valuation allowance with respect to our deferred tax asset, our financial condition,its business, results of operations and financial condition. These third parties are also sources of risk associated with operational errors, system interruptions or breaches and unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. If the vendors encounter any of these issues, the Company could be exposed to disruption of service, damage to reputation and litigation. Because the Company is an issuer of debit cards, it is periodically exposed to losses related to security breaches which occur at retailers that are unaffiliated with the
Company (e.g., customer card data being compromised at retail stores). These losses include, but are not limited to, costs and expenses for card reissuance as well as losses resulting from fraudulent card transactions. The occurrence of any system failures, interruption, or breach of security could damage our reputation and result in a loss of customers and business, subject us to additional regulatory capital levels would be negatively affected. scrutiny, or could expose us to litigation and possible financial liability. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.The soundness of other financial institutions could adversely affect us. Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty or other relationships. We have exposure to many different industries and counterparties, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial industry. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial services industry generally, have led to market-wide liquidity problems and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparty or client. In addition, our credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral we hold cannot be realized upon or is liquidated at prices insufficient to recover the full amount of the loan. We cannot assure you that any such losses would not materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Non-compliance with USA Patriot Act, Bank Secrecy Act, or other laws and regulations could result in fines or sanctions.
The USA Patriot and Bank Secrecy Acts require financial institutions to develop programs to prevent financial institutions from being used for money laundering and terrorist activities. If such activities are detected, financial institutions are obligated to file suspicious activity reports with the U.S. Treasury's Office of Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. These rules require financial institutions to establish procedures for identifying and verifying the identity of customers seeking to open new financial accounts. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in fines or sanctions. Several banking institutions have received large fines for non-compliance with these laws and regulations. Although we have developed policies and procedures designed to assist in compliance with these laws and regulations, no assurance can be given that these policies and procedures will be effective in preventing violations of these laws and regulations.
We operate in a highly regulated environment and may be adversely affected by changes in federal and state laws and regulations, some of which is expected to increase our costs of operations.
We are currently subject to extensive examination, supervision and comprehensive regulation by the FDIC and the DFI and by the Federal Reserve. The FDIC, DFI and the Federal Reserve govern the activities in which we may engage, primarily for the protection of depositors and the Deposit Insurance Fund. These regulatory authorities have extensive discretion, including the ability to restrict an institution's operations, require the institution to reclassify assets, determine the adequacy of the institution's allowance for loan losses and determine the level of deposit insurance premiums assessed. Any change in such regulation and oversight, whether in the form of regulatory policy, new regulations or legislation or additional deposit insurance premiums could have a material adverse impact on our operations. Because our business is highly regulated, the laws and applicable regulations are subject to frequent change. Any new laws, rules and regulations could make compliance more difficult or expensive or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition or growth prospects. Such changes could subject us to additional costs, limit the types of financial services and products we may offer and/or increase the ability of non-banks to offer competing financial services and products, among other things.
The Dodd-Frank Act has significantly changed the bank regulatory structure and will affect the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies. The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt a broad range of new implementing rules and regulations, and to prepare numerous studies and reports for Congress. The federal agencies are given significant discretion in drafting and implementing rules and regulations, and consequently, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act may not be known for many months or years.
Certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act are expected to have a near term impact on us. For example, a provision of the Dodd-Frank Act eliminates the federal prohibition on paying interest on demand deposits, thus allowing businesses to have interest bearing checking accounts. Depending on competitive responses, this significant change to existing law could have an adverse impact on our interest expense.
The Dodd-Frank Act created a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with broad powers to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has broad rule-making authority for a wide range of consumer protection laws that apply to all banks and savings institutions, including the authority to prohibit "unfair, deceptive or abusive" acts and practices. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has examination and enforcement authority over all banks and savings institutions with more than $10 billion in assets. Financial institutions, such as our subsidiary banks, with $10 billion or less in assets continue to be examined for compliance with the consumer laws by their primary bank regulators.
It is difficult to predict at this time what specific impact the Dodd-Frank Act and the yet to be written implementing rules and regulations will have on community banks. However, it is expected that at a minimum they will increase our operating and compliance costs and could increase our interest expense. Any additional changes in
our regulation and oversight, whether in the form of new laws, rules or regulations, could make compliance more difficult or expensive or otherwise materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or prospects.
Significant legal actions could subject us to substantial liabilities.
We are from time to time subject to claims related to our operations. These claims and legal actions, including supervisory actions by our regulators, could involve large monetary claims and significant defense costs. As a result, we may be exposed to substantial liabilities, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Our future success See also, Item 3. “Legal Proceedings”.Risks Relating to Earnings and Capital from Potential Impairment of Intangible or Deferred Tax Assets Impairment of intangible assets or deferred tax assets could require charges to earnings, which could negatively impact our results of operations. Deferred tax assets are only recognized to the extent it is dependent onmore likely than not they will be realized. Should our abilitymanagement determine it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized, a valuation allowance with a charge to compete effectivelyearnings would be reflected in the highly competitive banking industry. We face substantial competitionperiod. At June 30, 2023, our net deferred tax asset was $12.9 million, none of which was disallowed for regulatory capital purposes. Based on the levels of taxable income in all phasesprior years and our expectation of our operations from a variety of competitors. Ourprofitability in the current year and future growth and success will depend on our ability to compete effectively in this highly competitive environment. To date, we have grown our business successfully by focusing on our business lines in geographic markets and emphasizing the high level of service and responsiveness desired by our customers. We compete for loans, deposits and other financial services with other commercial banks, thrifts, credit unions, brokerage houses, mutual funds, insurance companies and specialized finance companies. Many of our competitors offer products and servicesyears, management has determined that we do not offer, and many have substantially greater resources and lending limits, name recognition and market presence that benefit them in attracting business. In addition, larger competitors may be able to price loans and deposits more aggressively than we do, and smaller newer competitors may also be more aggressive in terms of pricing loan and deposit products thanno valuation allowance was required at June 30, 2023. If we are required in orderthe future to obtaintake a share of the market. Some of the financial institutions and financial services organizationsvaluation allowance with which we compete are not subject to the same degree of regulation as is imposed on bank holding companies, federally insured state-chartered banks, national banks and federal savings banks. As a result, these nonbank competitors have certain advantages over us in accessing funding and in providing various services.
We are subject to security and operational risks relatingrespect to our usedeferred tax asset, our financial condition, results of technology that could damage our reputationoperations and business.
Security breaches in our internet banking activities could expose us to possible liability and damage our reputation. Any compromise of our security also could deter customers from using our internet banking services that involve the transmission of confidential information. We rely on standard internet security systems to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of data. These precautions may not protect our systems from compromises or breaches of our security measures, which could damage our reputation and business.
regulatory capital levels would be negatively affected.Risks Relating to Our Common Stock The price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, and this may make it difficult for you to resell our common stock when you want or at prices you find attractive. We cannot predict how our common stock will trade in the future. The market value of our common stock will likely continue to fluctuate in response to a number of factors including the following, most of which are beyond our control, as well as the other factors described in this "Risk Factors"“Risk Factors” section: · | ● | actual or anticipated quarterly fluctuations in our operating and financial results; |
· | ● | developments related to investigations, proceedings or litigation; |
· | ● | changes in financial estimates and recommendations by financial analysts; |
· | ● | dispositions, acquisitions and financings; |
· | ● | actions of our current shareholders, including sales of common stock by existing shareholders and our directors and executive officers; |
· | ● | fluctuations in the stock prices and operating results of our competitors; |
· | ● | regulatory developments; and |
· | ● | other developments in the financial services industry. |
The market value of our common stock may also be affected by conditions affecting the financial markets in general, including price and trading fluctuations. These conditions may result in (i) volatility in the level of, and fluctuations in, the market prices of stocks generally and, in turn, our common stock and (ii) sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the market, in each case that could be unrelated or disproportionate to changes in our operating performance. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market value of our common stock. There may be Currently, market prices of stocks issued by financial institutions have been negatively impacted by interest rates which are at historic lows and anticipated to remain there, and market expectations regarding elevated future sales of additional common stock or other dilution of our shareholders' equity, which may adversely affectcredit losses resulting from the market price of our common stock.
We are not restricted from issuing additional common stock, including any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common stock or any substantially similar securities. The market value of our common stock could decline as a result of sales by us of a large number of shares of common stock or similar securities in the market or the perception that such sales could occur.
We may issue debt and equity securities that are senior to our common stock as to distributions and in liquidation, which could negatively affect the value of our common stock.
In the future, we may increase our capital resources by entering into debt or debt-like financing or issuing debt or equity securities, which could include issuances of senior notes, subordinated notes, preferred stock or common stock. In the eventeconomic effects of the liquidation of Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. its lenders and holders of its debt or preferred securities would receive a distribution of the Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc.'s available assets before distributions to the holders of our common stock. Our decision to incur debt and issue other securities in future offerings will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control. We cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings and debt financings. Future offerings could reduce the value of our common stock and dilute the interests of our shareholders.
pandemic.Regulatory and contractual restrictions may limit or prevent us from paying dividends on and repurchasing our common stock. Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., is an entity separate and distinct from its subsidiary bank and derives substantially all of its revenue in the form of dividends from the subsidiary.Bank. Accordingly, the Company is and will be dependent upon dividends from its subsidiary bank to pay the principal of and interest on its indebtedness, to satisfy its other cash needs and to pay dividends on its common and preferred stock. The bank'sBank’s ability to pay dividends is subject to its ability to earn net income and to meet certain regulatory requirements. In the event the subsidiary bank is unable to pay dividends to the Company, the Company may not be able to pay dividends on its common or preferred stock. Also, the Company'sCompany’s right to participate in a distribution of assets upon the subsidiary'ssubsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization is subject to the prior claims of the subsidiary'ssubsidiary’s creditors. In addition, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends only when, as and if declared by our board of directors. Although we have historically paid cash dividends on our common stock, we are not required to do so and our board of directors could reduce, suspend or eliminate our common stock cash dividend in the future. If we defer interest payments on our outstanding junior subordinated debt securities or if certain defaults relating to those debt securities occur, we will be prohibited from declaring or paying dividends or distributions on, and from making liquidation payments with respect to, our common stock. As of June 30, 2017,2023, we had outstanding $16.8$24.3 million aggregate principal amount of junior subordinated debt securities issued in connection with the sale of trust preferred securities by subsidiaries of ours that are statutory business trusts. As of that date, those debt securities were carried at a fairbook value of $14.8$23.1 million. We guarantee the trust preferred securities described above. The indentureindentures under which the junior subordinated debt securities were issued, together with the guarantee, prohibitsprohibit us, subject to limited exceptions, from declaring or paying any dividends or distributions on, or redeeming, repurchasing, acquiring or making any liquidation payments with respect to, any of our capital stock at any time when (i) there shall have occurred and be continuing an event of default under the indenture; or (ii) we are in default with respect to payment of any obligations under the guarantee; or (iii) we have elected to defer payment of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities. In that regard, we are entitled, at our option but subject to certain conditions, to defer payments of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities from time to time for up to five years. Events of default under the indentureindentures generally consist of our failure to pay interest on the junior subordinated debt securities under certain circumstances, our failure to pay any principal of or premium on such junior subordinated debt securities when due, our failure to comply with certain covenants under the indenture, and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation relating to us. As a result of these provisions, if we were to elect to defer payments of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities, or if any of the other events described in clause (i) or (ii) of the firstsecond paragraph of this risk factor were to occur, we would be prohibited from declaring or paying any dividends on our common stock, from redeeming, repurchasing or otherwise acquiring any of our common stock, and from making any payments to holders of our common stock in the event of our liquidation, which would likely have a material adverse effect on the market value of our common stock. Moreover, without notice to or consent from the holders of our common stock, we may issue additional series of junior subordinated debt securities in the future with terms similar to those of our existing junior subordinated debt securities or enter into other financing agreements that limit our ability to purchase or to pay dividends or distributions on our capital stock, including our common stock. Anti-takeover provisions could negatively impact our shareholders. Provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws, Missouri law and various other factors may make it more difficult for companies or persons to acquire control of us without the consent of our board of directors. These provisions include limitations on voting rights of beneficial owners of more than 10% of our common stock, the election of directors to staggered terms of three years and not permitting cumulative voting in the election of directors. Our bylaws also contain provisions regarding the timing and content of shareholder proposals and nominations for service on the Board of Directors. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
Item 2. Description of PropertiesAt June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank operated from its headquarters, 3862 full-service branch offices, and three limited-service branch offices. The Bank owns the office building and related land in which its headquarters are located, and 3658 of its other branch offices. The remaining five branchesseven branch offices are either leased or partially owned. For additional information regarding our properties, see "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 5 – Premises and Equipment". During fiscal 2016, two significant construction projects were completed. The first project provided a facility to serve as a new corporate headquarters and a full service office, in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. Following completion of the project, the Bank's previous headquarters converted to serve as a full-service branch. The second project renovated leased space in a new branch facility in Springfield to replace an existing leased branch. Management believes that our current facilities are adequate to meet our present and immediately foreseeable needs. However, we will continue to monitor customer growth and expand our branching network, if necessary, to serve our customers'customers’ needs. Item 3. Legal ProceedingsIn the opinion of management, the Company and its Bank issubsidiary are not a partyparties to any pending claims or lawsuits that are expected to have a material effect on the Bank'sCompany’s financial condition or operations. Periodically, there have been various claims and lawsuits involving the Company or the Bank, mainly as a defendant,defendants, such as claims to enforce liens, condemnation proceedings on properties in which the Company or the Bank holds security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans and other issuesactivities incident to the Bank'sCompany’s or the Bank’s business. Aside from such pending claims and lawsuits, which are incident to the conduct of the Bank'sCompany’s or the Bank’s ordinary business, the Company and the Bank isare not a partyparties to any material pending legal proceedings that wouldare expected to have a material effect on the financial condition or operations of the Bank. Company. Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures Not applicable. Item 4A. Information About Our Executive Officers Pursuant to General Instruction G(3) of Form 10-K and the instructions of Form 401 and Regulation S-K, the following information is furnished in lieu of being included in the Registrant’s definitive proxy statement. The following information as to the business experience during the past five years is supplied with respect to executive officers of the Company who are not directors of the Company or the Bank, with the exception of Mr. Steffens, who is Chairman of the Board of the Company and the Bank, and Mr. Funke, who is a director of the Bank. There are no arrangements or understandings between the persons named and any other person pursuant to which such officers were selected. Greg A. Steffens, age 56, the Company’s Chairman of the Board (“Chairman”), and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), joined our Company in 1998 as Chief Financial Officer, and was appointed President and CEO in 1999. He has over 33 years of experience in the banking industry, including service from 1993 to 1998 as chief financial officer of Sho-Me Financial Corp (Mount Vernon, Missouri), prior to the sale of that company to Union Planters Corporation. Mr. Steffens also served from 1989 to 1993 as an examiner with the Office of Thrift Supervision. Mr. Steffens holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration-Accounting and Finance from the University of Central Missouri, Warrensburg, Missouri. Effective July 1, 2022, Mr. Steffens became Chairman and CEO of the Company. Matthew T. Funke, age 46, the Company’s President and Chief Administrative Officer, joined our Company in 2003.

OVERVIEW Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., is a Missouri corporation originally organized for the principal purpose of becoming the holding company of Southern Bank. The principal business of Southern Bank consists of attracting deposits from the communities it serves and investing those funds in loans secured by one- to four-family residencesresidential and commercial real estate, as well as commercial business and consumer loans. These funds have also been used to purchase municipal, corporate, and asset-backed investment securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), U.S. government and federal agency obligations and other permissible securities. Southern Bank'sBank’s results of operations are primarily dependent on the levels of its net interest margin and noninterest income, and its ability to control operating expenses.expenses and net charge offs. Net interest margin is dependent primarily on the difference or spread between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets (including loans, mortgage-related securities, and investments) and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities (including deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and borrowings), as well as the relative amounts of these assets and liabilities. Southern Bank is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-earning assets mature or reprice at different times, or on a varying basis, from its interest-bearing liabilities. Southern Bank'sBank’s noninterest income consists primarily of fees charged on transaction and loan accounts, interchange income from customer debit and ATM card use, gains on sales of loans, to the secondary market,trust and wealth management services, and increased cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance ("BOLI"(“BOLI”). Southern Bank'sBank’s operating expenses include: employee compensation and benefits, occupancy and data processing expenses, legal and professional fees, federal deposit insurance premiums, amortization of intangible assets, and other general and administrative expenses. Southern Bank'sBank’s operations are significantly influenced by general economic conditions including monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. government and the FRB.Federal Reserve Board. Additionally, Southern Bank is subject to policies and regulations issued by financial institution regulatory agencies including the FRB,Federal Reserve, the Missouri Division of Finance, and the FDIC.Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Each of these factors may influence interest rates, loan demand, prepayment rates and deposit flows. Interest rates available on competing investments as well as general market interest rates influence the Bank'sBank’s cost of funds. Lending activities are affected by the demand for real estate and other types of loans, which in turn is affected by the interest rates at which such financing may be offered. Lending activities are funded through the attraction of deposit accounts consisting of checking accounts, passbook and statement savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, certificate of deposit accounts with terms of 60 months or less, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, advances from the FHLBFederal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, and to a lesser extent, brokered deposits. The Bank intends to continue to focus on its lending programs for one- to four-family and multi-family residential real estate, commercial real estate, commercial business and consumer financing on loans secured by properties or collateral located primarily in Missouri and Arkansas. All share amounts and per share amounts discussed below have been adjusted for the two-for-one common stock split in the form of a 100% common stock dividend paid January 30, 2015.
its primary lending area or to borrowers who operate within that area.CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES Critical accounting estimates are those estimates made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the registrant. provide qualitative and quantitative information necessary to understand the estimation uncertainty and the impact the critical accounting estimate has had or is reasonably likely to have on financial condition or results of operations to the extent the information is material and reasonably available. this information should include why each critical accounting estimate is subject to uncertainty and, to the extent the information is material and reasonably available, how much each estimate and/or assumption has changed over a relevant period, and sensitivity of the reported amount to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying its calculation. The Company has established various accounting policies, which govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in Item 8 of this Form 10-K under the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities; management considers such accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The judgments and assumptions used by management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates that could have a material impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the results of operations of the Company. Allowance for Credit Losses. The Company's allowance for credit losses on loans represents management's bestis its estimate of probablecredit losses expected in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is increased by the provision for losses on loans charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. The provision for losses on loans is determined based on management's assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions andon unfunded lending commitments, or in its available-for-sale securities portfolio over the related impactexpected life of those assets. While these estimates are based on specific borrowers and industry groups, historical loan loss experience, the level of classified and nonperforming loans and the results of regulatory examinations.
Integral to the methodologysubstantive methods for determining the adequacy ofrequired allowance, actual outcomes may differ significantly from estimated results, especially when determining required allowances for larger, complex commercial credits or unfunded lending commitments to commercial borrowers. Consumer loans, including single family residential real estate, are individually smaller and generally behave in a similar manner, and loss estimates for these credits are considered more predictable. Additionally, the Company estimates the allowance for loancredit losses is portfolio segmentation and impairment measurement. Under the Company's methodology, loans are first segmented into 1) those comprising large groupsas a calculation of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, including single-family mortgages and installment loans, which are collectively evaluated for impairment and 2) all other loans which are individually evaluated. Those loans in the second category are further segmentedexpected lifetime credit losses utilizing a defined grading systemforward-looking forecast of macroeconomic conditions, which involves categorizing loans by severity of risk based on conditions that may affect the abilitydiffer significantly from actual results. Further discussion of the borrowers to repay their debt, such as current financial information, collateral valuations, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information,methodology used in establishing the allowance is provided in Note 1 and current trends. The loans subject to credit classification represent the portion of the portfolio subjectNote 3 to the greatest credit risk and where adjustmentsNotes to the allowance for losses on loans as a resultConsolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of provisions and charge-offs are most likely to have a significant impact on operations.
A periodic review of selected credits (based on loan size and type) is conducted to identify loans with heightened risk of probable losses and to assign risk grades. The primary responsibility for this review rests with the loan administration personnel. This review is supplemented with periodic examinations of both selected credits and the credit review process by applicable regulatory agencies. The information from these reviews assists management in the timely identification of problems and potential problems and provides a basis for deciding whether the credit represents a probable loss or risk that should be recognized.
Loans are considered impaired if, based on current information and events, it is probable that Southern Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The measurement of impaired loans is generally based on the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans. If the loan is not collateral-dependent, the measurement of impairment is based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate or the observable market price of the loan. In measuring the fair value of the collateral, management uses the assumptions (i.e., discount rates) and methodologies (i.e., comparison to the recent selling price of similar assets) consistent with those that would be utilized by unrelated third parties. Impairment identified through this evaluation process is a component of the allowance for loan losses. If a loan is not considered impaired, it is grouped together with loans having similar characteristics (i.e., the same risk grade), and an allowance for loan losses is based upon a quantitative factor (historical average charge-offs for similar loans over the past one to five years), and qualitative factors such as changes in lending policies; national, regional, and local economic conditions; changes in mix and volume of portfolio; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff; entry to new markets; levels and trends of delinquent, nonaccrual, special mention, and classified loans; concentrations of credit; changes in collateral values; agricultural economic conditions; and regulatory risk. For portfolio loans that are evaluated for impairment as part of homogenous pools, an allowance is maintained based upon similar quantitative and qualitative factors. Changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers, in economic conditions, in historical loss experienceForm 10-K, and in the conditions“Financial Condition – Loans” and “Allowance for Credit Losses” sections of the various markets in which collateral may be sold may all affect the required level of the allowance for losses on loans and the associated provision for losses on loans.
this Item 7.FINANCIAL CONDITION General. The Company experienced balance sheet growth in fiscal 2017,2023, with total assets of $1.7$4.4 billion at June 30, 2017,2023, reflecting an increase of $303.8 million,$1.1 billion, or 21.6%35.6%, as compared to June 30, 2016.2022.

The decrease was primarily a result of organic loan growth outpacing organic deposit growth during the change attributed primarily toperiod, partially offset by the Capaha Acquisition.net effects of the Citizens merger. Interest-bearing time deposits were $747,000$1.2 million at June 30, 2017, up $24,000,2023, a decrease of $3.5 million, or 3.3%, over the same time period. 74.0% as compared to June 30, 2022.Investments.

The increase was primarily attributable primarily to the Capaha Acquisition, which includedCitizens merger, and reflected increased holdings of CMOs, asset-backed securities, balances totaling $9.9 million, as well as additional investments made by the Company during the fiscal year. By category, mortgage-backed U.S. government-sponsored entity (GSE) residential securities, other GSEcorporate obligations, and obligations of state and political subdivisions saw significant increases. residential MBS.Loans. Loans, net of the allowance for loan losses,ACL, were $1.4$3.6 billion at June 30, 2017, up $262.32023, an increase of $884.9 million, or 23.1%32.9%, as compared to June 30, 2016. The increase was2022. Gross loans increased by $899.5 million, while the ACL attributable primarily to the Capaha Acquisition, which includedoutstanding loan balances totaling $152.2 million, at fair value. Inclusive of the acquisition, loan growth was noted in commercial real estate loans, residential real estate loans, and commercial loans. The increase in commercial real estate loan balances was attributable primarily to the origination and acquisition of loans secured by nonresidential improved property and agricultural real estate. The increase in residential real estate loan balances was attributable primarily to acquired loans secured by 1-4 family property, and origination and acquisition of loans secured by multifamily real estate. The increase in commercial loan balances was attributable to origination and acquisition of commercial and industrial loans, as well as the acquisition of agricultural operating and equipment loans. Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses was $15.5 million at June 30, 2017, an increase of $1.7increased $14.6 million, or 12.7%44.1%, as compared to June 30, 2016. The allowance represented 1.10%2022.An increase of gross loans receivable at June 30, 2017, as compared to 1.20%$447.4 million in loan balances, net of gross loans receivable at June 30, 2016. The decrease in the allowance as a percentage of gross loans receivablefair value adjustments, was attributable to the Capaha Acquisition,Citizens merger. The Company also noted legacy growth in whichresidential and commercial real estate loans, subjectdrawn construction loan balances, commercial loans, and a modest contribution from consumer loans. Residential real estate loan balances increased primarily due to growth in multi-family loans. Commercial real estate balances increased primarily from an increase in loans secured by nonresidential structures, along with growth in loans secured by farmland, and unimproved land. Construction loan balances increased primarily due to increases in drawn balances of nonowner-occupied nonresidential and multi-family real estate loans. The increase in commercial loans was attributable to commercial and industrial loans and agricultural loan balances. Nonperforming loans were $7.7 million, or 0.21% of gross loans, at June 30, 2023, as compared to $4.1 million, or 0.15% of gross loans at June 30, 2022. The increase in nonperforming loans as compared to the prior fiscal year was attributed primarily to $2.0 million in nonperforming loans obtained via the Citizens merger and an increase of $1.5 million in legacy nonperforming loans. Allowance for Credit Losses. Our ACL at June 30, 2023, totaled $47.8 million, representing 1.32% of gross loans and 624.9% of nonperforming loans, as compared to $33.2 million, representing 1.22% of gross loans and 806.2% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2022. The ACL required for purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans acquired in the Citizens merger was $1.1 million, and was funded through purchase accounting whichadjustments, while the Company carries at fair value instead of establishing an allowanceACL required for loan losses, were added to the portfolio latenon-PCD loans acquired in the Citizens merger was $5.2 million, and was funded through a charge to PCL recognized in the third quarter of fiscal year.2023. See also, Provision“Provision for LoanCredit Losses, under Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended June 30, 20172023 and 2016. In2022”.The Company regularly reviews its quarterly evaluationACL and makes adjustments to its balance based on management’s estimate of (1) the total expected losses included in the Company’s financial assets held at amortized cost, which is limited to the Company’s loan portfolio, and (2) any credit deterioration in the Company’s available-for-sale securities as of the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses,balance sheet date. The Company holds no securities classified as held-to-maturity. Although the Company employsmaintains its ACL at a level that it considers sufficient to provide for losses, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed internal estimates. In addition, the amount of the ACL is subject to review by regulatory agencies, which can order the Company to record additional allowances. The required ACL has been estimated based upon the guidelines in ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. For a summary of changes in the ACL during the current and prior fiscal years, and a breakdown of the ACL by loan category as of the current and prior fiscal year end, see Description of Business – Asset Quality, Allowance for Credit Losses, contained within Item 1 of this Form 10-K. The estimate involves consideration of quantitative and qualitative factors relevant to the loans as segmented by the Company, and is based on an evaluation, at the reporting date, of historical loss experience and peer data, including past due percentages,coupled with qualitative adjustments to address current economic conditions and credit quality, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Specific qualitative factors considered include, but may not be limited to: ●Changes in lending policies and/or loan review system ●National, regional, and local economic trends and/or conditions ●Changes and/or trends in the nature, volume, or terms of the loan portfolio ●Experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff ●Levels and/or trends of delinquent, non-accrual, problem assets, or charge offs and recoveries for the previous one to five years for each loan category. Average net charge offs are calculated as net charge offs for the period by portfolio type as a percentage ●Concentrations of the average balance of the respective portfolio type over the same period. The Company believes that it is prudent to emphasize more recent historicalcredit ●Changes in collateral values ●Agricultural economic conditions ●Risks from regulatory, legal, or competitive factors in the allowance evaluation. The following table sets forth the Company's historical net charge offs as of June 30, 2017:
| | | Net charge offs - | | | Net charge offs - | | | Portfolio segment | | 1-year historical | | | 5-year historical | | | Real estate loans: | | | | | | | | Residential | | | 0.04 | % | | | 0.05 | % | | Construction | | | 0.05 | | | | 0.03 | | | Commercial | | | 0.00 | | | | 0.03 | | | Consumer loans | | | 0.16 | | | | 0.22 | | | Commercial loans | | | 0.13 | | | | 0.19 | | | | | | | | | | | |
Additionally, in its quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, the Company evaluates changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers; changes in local, regional, and national economic conditions; the Company's historical loss experience; and changes in market conditions for property pledged to the Company as collateral. The Company has identified specific qualitative factors that address these issues and subjectively assigns a percentage to each factor. Qualitative factors are reviewed quarterly and may be adjusted as necessary to reflect improving or declining trends. At June 30, 2017, these qualitative factors included:
· | Changes in lending policies |
· | National, regional, and local economic conditions |
· | Changes in mix and volume of portfolio |
· | Experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff |
· | Levels and trends of delinquent, nonaccrual, special mention and classified loans |
· | Concentrations of credit |
· | Changes in collateral values |
· | Agricultural economic conditions |
The qualitative factors are applied to the allowance for loan losses based upon the following percentages by loan type:
| | | Qualitative factor | | | Qualitative factor | | | | | applied at | | | applied at | | | Portfolio segment | | June 30, 2017 | | | June 30, 2016 | | | Real estate loans: | | | | | | | | Residential | | | 0.73 | % | | | 0.75 | % | | Construction | | | 1.73 | | | | 1.85 | | | Commercial | | | 1.33 | | | | 1.32 | | | Consumer loans | | | 1.36 | | | | 1.40 | | | Commercial loans | | | 1.37 | | | | 1.35 | | | | | | | | | | | |
At June 30, 2017, the amount of our allowance for loan losses attributable to these qualitative factors increased to approximately $13.8 million, as compared to $12.3 million at June 30, 2016, primarily due to the increase in loan balances, in particular, loan balances subject to allowance methodology. The relatively small change in qualitative factors applied was attributable to management's assessment that risks represented by the qualitative factors were little changed, on balance.
Premises and Equipment. Premises and equipment increased to $54.2$92.4 million, up $7.2$21.1 million, or 15.4%29.5%, as compared to June 30, 2016.2022. The increase was due primarily to facilities added throughpremises and right-of-use assets acquired in the Capaha Acquisition.Citizens merger, partially offset by the sale of some properties not being utilized as Bank facilities.BOLI. The Bank has purchased "key person"“key person” life insurance policies (BOLI) on employees at various times since fiscal 2003, and has acquired additional BOLI in connection with certain bank acquisitions. In fiscal 2017, the Bank acquired BOLI with a cash surrender value of $4.0 million in connection with the Capaha Acquisition.mergers. At June 30, 2017,2023, the cash surrender value of all such policies had increased to $34.3was $71.7 million, up $4.3$23.0 million, or 14.2%47.2%, as compared to June 30, 2016. 2022, attributable primarily to the Citizens merger.Intangible Assets. Intangible assets generated as a result of branch acquisitions in fiscal 2000 and the December 2010 assumption of deposits of the former First Southern Bank were fully amortized as of June 30, 2016. The July 2009 acquisition of the Southern Bank of Commerce resulted in goodwill of $126,000, which is not amortized, but is tested for impairment at least annually.$126,000.

The increase in FHLB advances resulted from organic loan growth outpacing organic deposit growth, partially offset by the Company repaid $16.5net effects of the Citizens merger, and was inclusive of $62.1 million in term advances and decreased$33.5 million in overnight funding. The decrease was attributableborrowings, as compared to the increase in deposit balances, including brokered funding and public unit deposits, partially offset by loan growth. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled $10.2 millionno overnight borrowings at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $16.9 million, or 62.3%, as compared to June 30, 2016. The decrease was attributable to several large public unit customers migrating from this product to a reciprocal brokered deposit agreement. At both dates, the full balance of repurchase agreements was due to local small business and government counterparties. In June 2017, the Company entered into a revolving, reducing line of credit with a five-year term,providing available credit of $15.0 million. The line of credit bears interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR, and available credit will be reduced by $3.0 million on each anniversary date of the line of credit.

The Company'sCompany’s net income available to common stockholders for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017,2023, was $15.6$39.2 million, an increasea decrease of $789,000,$7.9 million, or 5.3%16.8%, as compared to the prior fiscal year. Before a dividend on preferred shares of $85,000, net income was $14.8 million for the 2016 fiscal year, and increased by $704,000, or 4.7%, to $15.6 million for fiscal 2017. Net Interest Income . Net interest income for fiscal 20172023 was $51.1$126.7 million, an increase of $4.2$23.2 million, or 8.9%22.4%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase, as compared to the prior fiscal year, was attributable to a 10.5%28.5% increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets, partially offset by a decrease in the net interest margin, from 3.80%3.72% to 3.74%3.54%. Accretion of fair value discount on loansAverage earning asset balance growth was due primarily to loan growth and amortization of fair value premiums on time deposits relatedincreases in investment securities, attributable in part to the Peoples Acquisition was $1.5 millionCitizens merger. Lower average cash and cash equivalent balances partially offset increases in fiscal 2017, as compared to $1.7 millionother categories of average earning assets, and the change in fiscal 2016. This component of netthe interest-earning asset mix also partially offset the decline in interest income contributed an additional 11 basis points to the net interest margin in fiscal 2017, as compared to a contribution of 14 basis points in fiscal 2016. While the Company expects the impact of fair value discount accretion related to the Peoples Acquisition to decline substantially in fiscal 2018, discount accretion recognized related to the Capaha Acquisition will offset that decrease to some degree.margin.Interest Income. Interest income for fiscal 20172023 was $61.5$176.4 million, an increase of $5.2$59.5 million, or 9.2%51.0%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was due to an increase of $129.7$794.0 million, or 10.5%28.5%, in the average balance of interest-earning assets, partially offset bycombined with a six73 basis point decreaseincrease in the average yield earned on interest-earning assets, from 4.56%4.20% in fiscal 2016,2022, to 4.50%4.93% in fiscal 2017. 2023.Interest income on loans receivable for fiscal 20172023 was $58.0$162.2 million, an increase of $5.1$50.7 million, or 9.7%45.5%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was due to a $132.0$749.9 million, or 30.9%, increase in the average balance of loans receivable, partially offset bycombined with a 1051 basis point declineincrease in the average yield earned on loans receivable. The declineincrease in the average yield was attributed primarily to origination and repricing of loans and borrower refinancing as average market interest rates increased over the course of the fiscal year, combined with the partial-year impact of the Citizens merger, in which the continued low rate environment, as well as a reduction inacquired loan portfolio was valued based on current market interest rates at the accretiondate of fair value discount on loans attributable to the Peoples Acquisition, which declined to $1.3 million in fiscal 2017, as compared to $1.5 million in fiscal 2016. merger.Interest income on the investment portfolio and other interest-earning assets was $3.5$14.2 million for fiscal 2017,2023, an increase of $33,000,$8.8 million, or 1.0%164.2%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. This increase was attributable to a 203-basis point increase in the yield on these assets, combined with a $44.1 million, or 12.3%, increase in the average balance of such assets. The increase in average yield was attributable to the partial-year impact of the Citizens merger, in which the acquired securities portfolio was valued based on current market interest rates at the date of merger, a change in the mix of such assets, as cash and cash equivalents decreased while investment and mortgage backed securities increased, and purchases and reinvestment at market interest rates which were increasing over the course of the fiscal year. Interest Expense. Interest expense was $49.7 million for fiscal 2023, an increase of $36.4 million, or 273.5%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was due to a seven basis113-basis point increase in the average yield earnedrate paid on these assets, partially offset by a $2.3interest-bearing liabilities, to 1.72% in fiscal 2023, from 0.59% in fiscal 2022, combined with an increase of $654.0 million, decreaseor 29.2%, in the average balance of these assets.

The increase was due to the $126.6 milliona 107-basis point increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a one basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, from 0.87%deposits, combined with the $580.5 million, or 26.6%, increase in the average balance of those deposits. The increase in the average rate paid on deposits was attributable primarily to higher market interest rates over the course of fiscal 2016 to 0.86% in fiscal 2017.2023. Interest expense on depositsFHLB advances was $8.5$3.6 million for fiscal 2017,2023, an increase of $1.1$2.8 million, or 14.4%358.0%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was due primarily to the $100.5a $64.3 million, or 148.0%, increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits,these advances, combined with a three basis154-basis point increase in the average rate paid on those deposits. Interest expense on FHLB advances was $1.1 million for fiscal 2017, a decrease of $133,000, or 10.4%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The decrease was due to a $30.8 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances, combined with a 76 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on those advances. The decreaseincrease in the average rate paid was attributable primarily to higher market interest rates over the repayment early incourse of the fiscal year, which impacted the costs of relatively high-costovernight borrowings and new term advances combined with an increase in the percentage of total advances outstandingtaken during the year in overnight or other short-term structures with a relatively lower cost.
Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses basedfiscal year.Interest expense on prior loss experience, type and amount of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. Management also considers other factors relating to the collectability of the loan portfolio. The provision for loan lossessubordinated debt was $2.3$1.4 million for fiscal 2017, a decrease of $154,000, or 6.2%, as compared to the prior fiscal year. The decrease in provision was attributed to management's analysis of the loan portfolio. In fiscal 2017, net charge offs were $593,000, as compared to $1.0 million for the prior fiscal year. At June 30, 2017, classified loans totaled $13.3 million, or 0.94% of gross loans, as compared to $11.0 million, or 0.96% of gross loans, at June 30, 2016. Classified loans were comprised primarily of commercial and agricultural real estate loans, commercial and agricultural operating loans, and residential real estate loans. All loans so designated were classified due to concerns as to the borrowers' ability to continue to generate sufficient cash flows to service the debt.
The above provision was made based on management's analysis of the various factors which affect the loan portfolio and management's desire to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate. Management performed a detailed analysis of the loan portfolio, including types of loans, the charge-off history, and an analysis of the allowance for loan losses. Management also considered the continued origination of loans secured by commercial and agricultural real estate, and commercial and agricultural operating loans, which bear an inherently higher level of credit risk. While management believes the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2017, is adequate to cover losses inherent in the portfolio, there can be no assurance that, in the future, increases in the allowance will not be necessary, or that actual losses will not exceed the allowance.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income was $11.1 million for fiscal 2017,year 2023, an increase of $1.3 million,$753,000, or 13.6%109.8%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was attributeddue primarily to a 242-basis point increase in the average rate paid on subordinated debt, combined with a $5.1 million, or 27.8%, increase in the average balance of subordinated debt. The increase in the average rate paid was attributable primarily to higher market interest rates over the course of the fiscal year, which impacted adjustable rate debt, while the increase in the average balance was attributable primarily to the mid-fiscal 2022 assumption of subordinated debt in the Fortune merger.Provision for Credit Losses. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses (PCL) of $17.1 million for fiscal 2023, as compared to a PCL of $1.5 million for the prior fiscal year. In the current period, the PCL was attributable in part to the $5.2 million charge required to fund the ACL for non-purchased credit deteriorated loans acquired in the Citizens merger, along with a $1.8 million charge to fund to the allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures acquired in the Citizens merger. Exclusive of the charges required as a result of the Citizens merger, the Company would have recorded a PCL of approximately $10.1 million in the current year, reflecting an $9.0 million increase in the Company’s required ACL on outstanding loan origination fees,balances based on organic loan growth and changes in the current expected credit losses on the portfolio, and a $1.1 million increase in the required allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposure based on increased anticipated draws of available credit and changes in the mix of loan types anticipated to be funded. Our ACL at June 30, 2023, totaled $47.8 million, representing 1.32% of gross loans and 634% of nonperforming loans, as compared to an ACL of $33.2 million, representing 1.22% of gross loans and 806% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2022. As a percentage of average loans outstanding, the Company recorded net charge offs of 0.02% during fiscal year 2023, as compared to net charge offs of less than one basis point in the prior fiscal year. (See Note 1 and Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, “Critical Accounting Policies” and “Financial Condition – Allowance for Credit Losses” in this Item 7, and “Asset Quality” in Item 1 of this Form 10-K.) Noninterest Income. Noninterest income was $26.2 million for fiscal 2023, an increase of $5.0 million, or 23.6%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. Increases in deposit service charges, bank card interchange income, deposit account service charges,income on non-deposit investment products, loan servicing fees, increasesother loan fees, and earnings on BOLI contributed to the year-over year increase, partially offset by a decrease in the cash value of bank-owned life insurance (BOLI), and net gains realized on the sale of residential loans originated for sale into the secondary market. Most categories of noninterest income increased due to the impact of the January 2023 Citizens merger and the February 2022 Fortune merger.Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense was $38.3$86.4 million for fiscal 2017,2023, an increase of $5.6$23.0 million, or 17.0%36.4%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase included $4.9 million in charges related to merger and acquisition activity, which was primarily attributable to legal and professional fees, data processing and telecommunications, and team member compensation and expenses. In total, the increase in noninterest expense was attributable primarily to increased compensation occupancy,and benefits, legal and professional fees, chargesoccupancy expenses, data processing expenses, amortization of intangibles, deposit insurance premiums, and other noninterest expenses. The increase in compensation and benefits as compared to recognize the impairmentprior year period primarily reflected increased headcount for part of fixed assets, expensesthe fiscal year resulting from recent merger activity, compensation adjustments over the prior year, one-time compensation attributable to the prepaymentCitizens merger, and a continued trend of FHLB advances, provisioning for off-balance sheet credit exposures, losses on foreclosed real estate, bank card networkincreasing legacy employee headcount. Compensation adjustments over the last several fiscal years have exceeded historical trends. Data processing expenses increased primarily as a result of data conversion charges associated with the Citizens merger, and also reflected continued investments in new software and systems. Occupancy expenses increased primarily due to facilities added through the Citizens merger. Other noninterest expenses increased due to miscellaneous acquisition-related expenses, expenses related to loan originations, and expenses related to providing debit cards, internet banking,employee travel and other deposit services. Fiscal 2017 results included $710,000 in merger-related charges, with no comparable expenses in the prior fiscal year.training. Provision for Income Taxes. The Company recorded an income tax provision of $6.1$10.2 million for fiscal 2017,2023, a decrease of $620,000$2.5 million, or 19.7%, as compared to the prior fiscal year. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2017year, which was 28.0%, as comparedattributable to 31.0% for fiscal 2016. Thelower pre-tax income and a decrease in the effective tax rate was attributable primarily to formation by the Company of a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT")20.7% for fiscal 2023, as compared to hold certain qualified assets in order to minimize state tax liability, as well as an increase in tax-advantaged investments, and was partially offset by the inclusion in the current21.3% for fiscal year's results of some non-deductible expenses related to merger and acquisition activity.
2022. COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 20162022 AND 2015 2021Net Income. The Company'sCompany’s net income available to common stockholders for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016,2022, was $14.8$47.2 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 9.6%,roughly unchanged as compared to the prior fiscal year.

The increase, as compared to the prior fiscal year, was attributable to a 4.2%13.1% increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets, mostlypartially offset by a decrease in the net interest margin, from 3.92%3.77% to 3.80%3.72%. AccretionAverage earning asset balance growth was due primarily to loan growth and increases in investment securities, as well as the effect of fair value discount on loansthe Fortune acquisition. Additionally, significantly higher average cash and amortization of fair value premiums on time deposits relatedcash equivalent balances contributed to the Peoples Acquisition was $1.7 millionincrease in fiscal 2016, as compared to $2.1 million in fiscal 2015. This component ofaverage earning assets, but reduced the Company’s net interest income contributed an additional 14 basis point to the net interest margin in fiscal 2016, as compared to a contribution of 18 basis points in fiscal 2015. The Company expects the impact of the fair value discount accretion to decline even more significantly during fiscal 2017. Purchase accounting adjustments related to other acquisitions closed by the Company in recent periods have had a less significant impact on net interest income in fiscal 2016 and 2015.margin.Interest Income. Interest income for fiscal 20162022 was $56.3$116.9 million, an increase of $1.0$7.4 million, or 1.8%6.8%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was due to an increase of $49.6$322.9 million, or 13.1%, in the average balance of interest-earning assets, as a result of an increase in loan balances, partially offset by a ten25 basis point decrease in the average yield earned on interest-earning assets, from 4.66%4.45% in fiscal 2015,2021, to 4.56%4.20% in fiscal 2016. 2022.Interest income on loans receivable for fiscal 20162022 was $52.8$111.5 million, an increase of $1.3$6.4 million, or 2.6%6.1%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was due to a $72.1$254.8 million increase in the average balance of loans receivable, partially offset by a 2124 basis point decrease in the average yield earned on loans receivable. The declinedecrease in the average yield was attributed primarily to origination and repricing of loans and borrower refinancing in the continued low rate environment, as well as a reduction in the accretion of fair value discount on loans attributableaverage market interest rates decreased significantly compared to the Peoples Acquisition, which declined to $1.5 million inprior fiscal 2016, as compared to $1.8 million in fiscal 2015. year.Interest income on the investment portfolio and other interest-earning assets was $3.5$5.4 million for fiscal 2016,2022, an increase of $974,000, or 22.2%, when compared to the prior fiscal year, attributable to a 23.4% increase in the average balance of such assets, partially offset by a two basis point decrease in the yield on these assets. The decrease in average yield was attributable to the increase in cash and cash equivalents and a decrease in yield on debt securities, partially offset by an increase in the average balance and yield on mortgage-backed securities. Interest Expense. Interest expense was $13.3 million for fiscal 2022, a decrease of $318,000,$3.5 million, or 8.4%20.8%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The decrease was due to a 25 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, from 0.84% in fiscal 2021, to 0.59% in fiscal 2022, partially offset by an increase of $234.0 million, or 11.7%, in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. Interest expense on deposits was $11.8 million for fiscal 2022, a decrease of $3.1 million, or 20.6%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The decrease was due to a 23 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by the $253.5 million increase in the average balance of those deposits. The decrease in the average rate paid on deposits was attributable primarily to lower market interest rates over the course of fiscal 2022, as compared to the prior fiscal year. Interest expense on FHLB advances was $792,000 million for fiscal 2022, a decrease of $574,000, or 42.0%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The decrease was due to a $22.5 million decrease in the average balance of these assets,advances, combined with a 24 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on advances. The decrease in the average rate paid was attributable primarily to the maturity of advances that had carried higher rates, combined with the assumption of advances at lower rates in the Fortune acquisition. Provision for Credit Losses. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses (PCL) of $1.5 million for fiscal 2022, as compared to a negative PCL of $1.0 million for the prior fiscal year. In the current period, the PCL was attributable to the $1.9 million charge required to fund the ACL for purchased credit deteriorated (PCD) loans acquired in the Fortune acquisition, along with a charge of $120,000 to fund to the allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures acquired in the Fortune acquisition. Exclusive of the charges required as a result of the Fortune acquisition, the Company would have recorded a negative PCL of approximately $533,000 in the current year, reflecting a decrease in the Company’s required ACL on outstanding loan balances, partially offset by an increase in the required allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposure. Negative provisioning, exclusive of the impact of the Fortune acquisition, in the year ended June 30, 2022, was attributed primarily to an improved outlook regarding the economic environment resulting as the economy recovers from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Company notes less uncertainty regarding the potential adverse impact on its borrowers, generally low and consistent levels of net charge offs, and a reduction in delinquent or adversely classified credits, and nonperforming loans. While the Company assesses that the economic outlook has continued to improve during the current year as compared to the year ended June 30, 2021, there remains significant uncertainty as economic activity recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic and the Federal Reserve withdraws accommodative monetary policy that was put into effect to respond to the pandemic and its economic impact. In the prior period, the negative PCL was due both to a $602,000 reduction in the Company’s required ACL on outstanding loan balances, as well as a $422,000 reduction in the Company’s required allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposure. Our ACL at June 30, 2022, totaled $33.2 million, representing 1.22% of gross loans and 806% of nonperforming loans, as compared to an ACL of $33.2 million, representing 1.49% of gross loans and 566% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2021. As a percentage of average loans outstanding, the Company recorded net charge offs of less than one basis point during fiscal year 2022, as compared to net charge offs of 0.04% in the prior fiscal year. (See Note 1 and Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, “Critical Accounting Policies” and “Financial Condition – Allowance for Credit Losses” in this Item 7, and “Asset Quality” in Item 1 of this Form 10-K.) Noninterest Income. Noninterest income was $21.2 million for fiscal 2022, an increase of $1.2 million, or 5.8%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. Deposit service charge income, loan fees, nondeposit investment products, gains on the sale of the guaranty portion of newly originated government-guaranteed loans, and other income contributed to the year-over year increase, partially offset by a 13 basis point increasedecrease in gains on sale of residential loans originated into the average yield earnedsecondary market, loan servicing income, and earnings on these assets.

Interest Noninterest expense was $9.4$63.4 million for fiscal 2016,2022, an increase of $599,000,$9.3 million, or 6.8%17.3%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase included $1.4 million in charges related to merger and acquisition activity, which was due to the $52.5 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities, combined with a two basis point increase in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, from 0.85% in fiscal 2015 to 0.87% in fiscal 2016.Interest expense on deposits was $7.4 million for fiscal 2016, an increase of $548,000, or 8.0%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was due to the $65.1 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits, while the average rate paid on those deposits was unchanged.
Interest expense on FHLB advances was $1.3 million for fiscal 2016, a decrease of $7,000, or 0.5%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The decrease was due to a $15.1 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances, partially offset by a 36 basis point increase in the average rate paid on those advances. The increase in the average rate paid wasprimarily attributable to the lower average balance outstanding in relatively low-cost overnight borrowings.
Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses is charged to earnings to bring thedata processing, compensation, and legal fees. In total, allowance for loan losses to a level considered adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses based on prior loss experience, type and amount of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. Management also considers other factors relating to the collectability of the loan portfolio.
The provision for loan losses was $2.5 million for fiscal 2016, compared to $3.2 million for the prior fiscal year. The decrease in provision was attributed to management's analysis of the loan portfolio. The analysis noted increased balances of loans subject to allowance methodology, as acquired loan balances initially subject to
purchase accounting are replaced over time. In fiscal 2016, net charge offs were $1.0 million, compared to $146,000 for the prior fiscal year. At June 30, 2016, classified loans totaled $11.0 million, or 0.96% of gross loans, as compared to $14.8 million, or 1.39% of gross loans, at June 30, 2015. Classified loans were comprised primarily of commercial and residential real estate. At June 30, 2016, classified loans included $1.7 million in purchased credit impaired loans obtained in the Peoples Acquisition, as compared to $4.3 million at June 30, 2015. All loans so designated were classified due to concerns as to the borrowers' ability to continue to generate sufficient cash flows to service the debt.
The above provision was made based on management's analysis of the various factors which affect the loan portfolio and management's desire to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate. Management performed a detailed analysis of the loan portfolio, including types of loans, the charge-off history, and an analysis of the allowance for loan losses. Management also considered the continued origination of commercial and agricultural real estate, and commercial and agricultural operating loans, which bear an inherently higher level of credit risk. While management believes the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2016, is adequate to cover losses inherent in the portfolio, there can be no assurance that, in the future, increases in the allowance will not be necessary, or that actual losses will not exceed the allowance.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income was $9.8 million for fiscal 2016, an increase of $1.1 million, or 12.7%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was attributed primarily to non-recurring items related to bank-owned life insurance ($323,000), the Company's ownership of stock in Ozark Trust and Investment Corporation, the acquisition of which by Simmons First National Corporation closed during the fiscal year ($301,000), and the Company's sale of its interest in a low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) limited partnership ($138,000). The remainder of the change was attributable to increases in bank card interchange income and deposit account service charges, partially offset by reduction in loan late charges and losses on disposition of fixed assets.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense was $32.7 million for fiscal 2016, an increase of $402,000, or 1.2%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase in noninterest expense was attributable primarily to increasedcompensation and benefits, occupancy supplies and postage, and advertising, partially offset by declines in legal and professional feesexpenses, data processing expenses, and other operating expensenoninterest expenses. The increase in compensation and benefits as compared to the prior year period primarily reflected compensation adjustments over the prior year, one-time compensation attributable to the Fortune acquisition, increased headcount for part of the fiscal year resulting from the acquisition, and a modest trend increase in legacy employee headcount. Compensation adjustments which took effect in January 2022 were, as expected, above historical trends. Data processing expenses increased primarily as a result of inclusion in fiscal 2015 resultsdata conversion charges associated with the Fortune acquisition. Occupancy expenses increased due to remodeled and relocated facilities, facilities added through the Fortune acquisition, a de novo facility, new ATM and ITM installations and other equipment purchases, and charges for maintenance of $508,000 in merger-related charges, with no comparable charge in the current period. Additionally, chargesfacilities and grounds. Other noninterest expenses increased due to amortize core deposit intangibles were lower as intangibles resulting from branch acquisitions in 2000miscellaneous acquisition-related expenses, expenses related to loan originations, and the December 2010 assumption of deposits of the former First Southern Bank were fully amortized during the fiscal year.
expenses related to employee travel and training. Provision for Income Taxes. The Company recorded an income tax provision of $6.7$12.7 million for fiscal 2016,2022, an increase of $627,000$210,000, or 1.7%, as compared to the prior fiscal year. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2016 was 31.0%, as comparedyear, attributable to 30.7% for fiscal 2015. Thehigher pre-tax income, and an increase in the effective tax rate was attributable primarily to an increase in pre-tax income and average assets, without corresponding increases in tax-advantaged investments, partially offset by a decrease in non-deductible expenses.
21.3% for fiscal 2022, as compared to 21.0% for fiscal 2021.LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Southern Missouri'sMissouri’s primary potential sources of funds include deposit growth, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, FHLB advances, amortization and prepayment of loan principal, investment maturities and sales, and capital generated from ongoing operating results.operations. While scheduled repayments on loans and securities as well as the maturity of short-term investments are a relatively predictable source of funding, deposit flows, FHLB advance redemptions and loan and security prepayment rates are significantly influenced by factors outside of the Bank'sBank’s control, including general economic conditions and market competition. The Bank has relied on FHLB advances as a source for funding cash or liquidity needs. Southern Missouri uses its liquid assets as well as other funding sources to meet ongoing commitments, to fund loan demand, to repay maturing certificates of deposit and FHLB advances, to make investments, to fund other deposit withdrawals and to meet operating expenses. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had outstanding commitments to extend credit of $251.9$912.0 million (including $170.4$552.1 million in unused lines of credit). Total commitments to originate fixed-rate loans with terms in excess of one year were $29.6$213.3 million at rates ranging from 3.25%3.95% to 8.00%11.0%, with a weighted-average rate of 4.59%6.07%. Management anticipates that current funding sources will be adequate to meet foreseeable liquidity needs. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017,2023, Southern Missouri increased deposits by $334.9$910.5 million, and reduced securities sold under agreements to repurchase andincreased FHLB advances by $16.9 million and $66.6 million, respectively.$95.6 million. During the prior fiscal year, Southern Missouri increased deposits by $484.3 million and decreased FHLB advances by $65.5 million and $45.4 million, respectively, and reduced securities sold under agreements to repurchase by $247,000.$19.6 million. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had pledged $579.3 millionreported $1.1 billion of its single-family residential and commercial real estate loan portfolios as eligible collateral to the FHLB for available credit of approximately $295.4$675.7 million, of which $43.5$133.7 million was advanced, while none$417,000 was usedencumbered in relation to residential real estate loans sold onto the secondary market through the FHLB, and $305,000 was utilized for the issuance of letters of credit to secure public unit deposits. The Bank had also pledged $180.1$344.3 million of its agricultural real estate and agricultural operating and equipment loans to the Federal Reserve'sReserve Bank of St. Louis’s discount window for available credit of approximately $143.9$276.6 million, as of June 30, 2017,2023, none of which was advanced. The Bank has also been approved for participation in the BTFP introduced early in calendar year 2023 by the Federal Reserve Bank, but the Bank has not pledged any securities under the program. In addition, the Bank has the ability to pledgeidentify eligible loans within several of its other loan portfolios, including, for example, its multifamilymulti-family residential real estate, home equity, or commercial business loans.loans, for additional credit availability with the FHLB. In total, FHLB borrowings are generally limited to 35%45% of Bank assets, or approximately $522.2 million$1.9 billion as most recently reported by the FHLB onas of June 30, 2017,2023, which means that an amount up to $478.7 million$1.8 billion may still be eligible to be borrowed from the FHLB, subject to available collateral. Along with the ability to borrow from the FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, management believes its liquid resources will be sufficient to meet the Company'sCompany’s liquidity needs. Liquidity management is an ongoing responsibility of the Bank'sBank’s management. The Bank adjusts its investment in liquid assets based upon a variety of factors including (i) expected loan demand and deposit flows, (ii) anticipated investment and FHLB advance maturities, (iii) the impact on profitability, and (iv) asset/liability management objectives. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had $326.6$690.5 million in CDs maturing within one year and $928.7 million$2.7 billion in other deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase without a specified maturity, as compared to the prior year of $245.9$377.8 million in CDs maturing within one year and $749.1 million$2.2 billion in other deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase without a specified maturity.maturity as of June 30, 2022. Management believes that most maturing interest-bearing liabilities will be retained or replaced by new interest-bearing liabilities. Also, at June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank had no overnight advances and $20.0$33.5 million in weeklyovernight advances from the FHLB, $13.0 million in term FHLB advances maturing within one year, and $23.5$87.0 million in FHLB advances with a maturity date in excess of one year. Of the advances with maturity dates in excess of one year, none was eligible for early redemption by the lender within one year. We also incur capital expenditures on an ongoing basis to expand and improve our product offerings, enhance and modernize our technology infrastructure, and to introduce new technology-based products to compete effectively in our markets. We evaluate capital expenditure projects based on a variety of factors, including expected strategic impacts (such as forecasted impact on revenue growth, productivity, expenses, service levels and customer retention) and our expected return on investment. The amount of capital investment is influenced by, among other things, current and projected demand for our services and products, cash flow generated by operating activities, cash required for other purposes and regulatory considerations. At June 30, 2023, we had other future obligations and accrued expenses of $18.6 million. Based on our current capital allocation objectives, during fiscal 2024 we project expending approximately $6.0 million to $8.0 million of cash for capital investment in technology, property, plant and equipment. In addition, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, we project that our fixed commitments will include (i) $1.0 million of operating and finance lease and other fixed payments and (ii) $1.7 million of scheduled interest payments on subordinate notes. We believe that our liquid assets combined with the available lines of credit provide adequate liquidity to meet our current financial obligations for at least the next 12 months. REGULATORY CAPITAL Federally insured financial institutions are required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital. Federal Reserve regulations establish capital requirements, including a tier 1 leverage (or core capital) requirement and risk-based capital requirements. The Federal Reserve Board is also authorized to impose capital requirements in excess of these standards on individual institutions on a case-by-case basis. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Bank exceeded regulatory capital requirements with tier 1 leverage, total risk-based capital, and tangible common equity capital of $167.3$407.8 million, $183.9$454.7 million and $167.3$407.8 million, respectively. The Bank'sBank’s tier 1 capital represented 10.98%9.54% of total adjusted assets and 11.05%10.56% of total risk-weighted assets, while total risk-based capital was 12.15%11.77% of total risk-weighted assets, and tangible common equity capital was 11.05%10.56% of total risk-weighted assets. To be considered adequately capitalized, the Bank must maintain tier 1 leverage capital levels of at least 4.0% of adjusted total assets and 6.0% of risk-weighted assets, total risk-based capital of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets, and tangible common equity capital of 4.5%. of risk-weighted assets. To be considered well capitalized, the Bank must maintain tier 1 leverage capital levels of at least 5.0% of adjusted total assets and 8.0% of risk-weighted assets, total risk-based capital of 10.0% of risk-weighted assets, and tangible common equity capital of 6.5%. of risk-weighted assets.At June 30, 2017,2023, the Company exceeded regulatory capital requirements with tier 1 leverage, total risk-based capital, and tangible common equity capital of $177.7$426.6 million, $194.3$481.2 million and $163.6$411.2 million, respectively. The Company'sCompany’s tier 1 capital represented 11.66%9.95% of total adjusted assets and 11.74%11.10% of total risk-weighted assets, while total risk-based capital was 12.84%12.52% of total risk-weighted assets, and tangible common equity capital was 10.81%10.70% of total risk-weighted assets. To be considered adequately capitalized, the Company must maintain tier 1 leverage capital levels of at least 4.0% of adjusted total assets and 6.0% of risk-weighted assets, total risk-based capital of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets, and tangible common equity capital of 4.5%. of risk weighted assets.See Item 1 – Business – Regulation, and Note 1311 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8.
8 of this Form 10-K for additional detail on the Company’s capital requirements.IMPACT OF INFLATION The consolidated financial statements and related data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in historical dollars without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation on the operations of the Company is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, changes in interest rates generally have a more significant impact on a financial institution'sinstitution’s performance than does inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services. In the current interest rate environment, liquidity and maturity structure of the Company'sCompany’s assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels.
AVERAGE BALANCE, INTEREST AND AVERAGE YIELDS AND RATES The table on the following pagetable sets forth certain information relating to the Company'sCompany’s average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and reflects the average yield on assets and the average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated. These yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the years indicated. Nonaccrual loans are included with other noninterest-earning assets. The table also presents information with respect to the difference between the weighted-average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the weighted-average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, or interest rate spread, which financial institutions have traditionally used as an indicator of profitability. Another indicator of an institution'sinstitution’s net interest income is its net yield (or net interest margin) on interest-earning assets, which is its net interest income divided by the average balance of interest-earning assets. Net interest income is affected by the interest rate spread and by the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. When interest-earning assets approximate or exceed interest-bearing liabilities, any positive interest rate spread will generate net interest income. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Years Ended June 30, | | | | 2023 | | 2022 | | 2021 | | (dollars in thousands) | | Average | | Interest and | | Yield/ | | Average | | Interest and | | Yield/ | | Average | | Interest and | | Yield/ | | | | Balance | | Dividends | | Cost | | Balance | | Dividends | | Cost | | Balance | | Dividends | | Cost | | Interest-earning assets: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mortgage loans (1) | | $ | 2,585,065 | | $ | 126,315 | | 4.89 | % | $ | 1,953,460 | | $ | 90,522 | | 4.63 | % | $ | 1,664,650 | | $ | 84,319 | | 5.07 | % | Other loans (1) | | | 589,625 | | | 35,909 | | 6.09 | | | 471,350 | | | 20,973 | | 4.45 | | | 505,350 | | | 20,758 | | 4.11 | | Total net loans | | | 3,174,690 | | | 162,224 | | 5.11 | | | 2,424,810 | | | 111,495 | | 4.60 | | | 2,170,000 | | | 105,077 | | 4.84 | | Mortgage-backed securities | | | 241,642 | | | 6,967 | | 2.88 | | | 152,280 | | | 2,738 | | 1.80 | | | 121,149 | | | 2,042 | | 1.69 | | Investment securities (2) | | | 118,386 | | | 5,324 | | 4.50 | | | 77,996 | | | 2,197 | | 2.82 | | | 71,489 | | | 2,130 | | 2.98 | | Other interest-earning assets | | | 42,287 | | | 1,901 | | 4.50 | | | 127,958 | | | 437 | | 0.34 | | | 97,548 | | | 226 | | 0.23 | | TOTAL INTEREST- EARNING ASSETS (1) | | | 3,577,005 | | | 176,416 | | 4.93 | | | 2,783,044 | | | 116,867 | | 4.20 | | | 2,460,186 | | | 109,475 | | 4.45 | | Other noninterest-earning assets (3) | | | 234,047 | | | — | | — | | | 181,973 | | | — | | — | | | 170,336 | | | — | | — | | TOTAL ASSETS | | $ | 3,811,052 | | | 176,416 | | — | | $ | 2,965,017 | | | 116,867 | | — | | $ | 2,630,522 | | | 109,475 | | — | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Interest-bearing liabilities: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Savings accounts | | $ | 286,959 | | | 1,623 | | 0.57 | | $ | 253,651 | | | 672 | | 0.26 | | $ | 203,493 | | | 566 | | 0.28 | | NOW accounts | | | 1,280,134 | | | 17,756 | | 1.39 | | | 1,062,913 | | | 5,164 | | 0.49 | | | 861,796 | | | 5,036 | | 0.58 | | Money market accounts | | | 382,032 | | | 7,846 | | 2.05 | | | 276,579 | | | 928 | | 0.34 | | | 241,534 | | | 833 | | 0.34 | | Certificates of deposit | | | 810,570 | | | 17,167 | | 2.12 | | | 586,017 | | | 5,058 | | 0.86 | | | 618,884 | | | 8,454 | | 1.37 | | TOTAL INTEREST- BEARING DEPOSITS | | | 2,759,695 | | | 44,392 | | 1.61 | | | 2,179,160 | | | 11,822 | | 0.54 | | | 1,925,707 | | | 14,889 | | 0.77 | | Borrowings: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Securities sold under agreements to repurchase | | | 4,148 | | | 213 | | 5.13 | | | — | | | — | | — | | | — | | | — | | — | | FHLB advances | | | 107,661 | | | 3,627 | | 3.37 | | | 43,410 | | | 792 | | 1.83 | | | 65,896 | | | 1,366 | | 2.07 | | Junior subordinated debt | | | 23,253 | | | 1,439 | | 6.19 | | | 18,189 | | | 686 | | 3.77 | | | 15,193 | | | 534 | | 3.51 | | TOTAL INTEREST- BEARING LIABILITIES | | | 2,894,757 | | | 49,671 | | 1.72 | | | 2,240,759 | | | 13,300 | | 0.59 | | | 2,006,796 | | | 16,789 | | 0.84 | | Noninterest-bearing demand deposits | | | 522,159 | | | — | | — | | | 408,148 | | | — | | — | | | 343,643 | | | — | | — | | Other liabilities | | | 16,484 | | | — | | — | | | 10,651 | | | — | | — | | | 13,375 | | | — | | — | | TOTAL LIABILITIES | | | 3,433,400 | | | 49,671 | | — | | | 2,659,558 | | | 13,300 | | — | | | 2,363,814 | | | 16,789 | | — | | Stockholders’ equity | | | 377,652 | | | — | | — | | | 305,459 | | | — | | — | | | 266,708 | | | — | | — | | TOTAL LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY | | $ | 3,811,052 | | | 49,671 | | — | | $ | 2,965,017 | | | 13,300 | | — | | $ | 2,630,522 | | | 16,789 | | — | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Net interest income | | | | | $ | 126,745 | | | | | | | $ | 103,567 | | | | | | | $ | 92,686 | | | | Interest rate spread (4) | | | | | | | | 3.21 | % | | | | | | | 3.61 | % | | | | | | | 3.61 | % | Net interest margin (5) | | | | | | | | 3.54 | % | | | | | | | 3.72 | % | | | | | | | 3.77 | % | Ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities | | | 123.57 | % | | | | | | | 124.20 | % | | | | | | | 122.59 | % | | | | | |

Item 7A Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market RiskThe goal of the Company'sCompany’s asset/liability management strategy is to manage the interest rate sensitivity of both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in order to maximize net interest income without exposing the Company to an excessive level of interest rate risk. The Company employs various strategies intended to manage the potential effect that changing interest rates may have on future operating results. The primary asset/liability management strategy has been to focus on matching the anticipated repricing intervals of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. At times, however, depending on the level of general interest rates, the relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the Company may increase its interest rate risk position in order to maintain its net interest margin. In an effort to manage the interest rate risk resulting from fixed rate lending, the Company has at times utilized longer term (up to 10 year maturities), fixed-rate FHLB advances, which may be subject to early redemption, to offset interest rate risk. Other elements of the Company'sCompany’s current asset/liability strategy include: (i) increasing originations of commercial real estate, commercial business loans, agricultural real estate, and agricultural operating lines, which typically provide higher yields and shorter repricing periods, but inherently increase credit risk, (ii) limiting the price volatility of the investment portfolio by maintaining a relatively short weighted average maturity, (iii) actively soliciting less rate-sensitive nonmaturity deposits, and (iv) offering competitively priced money market accounts and CDs with maturities of up to five years. The degree to which each segment of the strategy is achieved will affect profitability and exposure to interest rate risk. The Company continues to generate long-term, fixed-rate residential loans. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017,2023, fixed rate residential loan originations totaled $60.2$147.2 million (of which $33.1$21.5 million was originated for sale into the secondary market), compared to $50.5$269.9 million during the prior year (of which $22.9$43.2 million was originated for sale into the secondary market). At June 30, 2017,2023, the fixed-rate, single-family residential loan portfolio totaled $147.5$586.4 million, with a weighted average maturity of 106188 months, compared to $139.9$499.2 million with a weighted average maturity of 116183 months at June 30, 2016.2022. The Company originated $34.5$38.4 million in adjustable rate residential loans during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017,2023, compared to $27.9$14.9 million during the prior fiscal year. At June 30, 2017,2023, fixed rate loans with remaining maturities in excess of 10 years totaled $36.7$365.1 million, or 2.6%10.2%, of loans receivable, compared to $36.7$338.1 million, or 3.2%15.4%, of loans receivable, at June 30, 2016.2022. The Company originated $221.8$614.2 million in fixed rate commercial, and commercial real estate, and multi-family loans during the year ended June 30, 2017,2023, compared to $195.5$580.0 million during the prior fiscal year. The Company also originated $92.0$157.0 million in adjustable rate commercial, and commercial real estate, and multi-family loans during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017,2023, compared to $60.0$64.2 million during the prior fiscal year. At June 30, 2017,2023, adjustable-rate home equity lines of credit totaled $35.2$64.6 million, compared to $25.1$45.4 million as of June 30, 2016.2022. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Company'sCompany’s weighted average life of its investment portfolio was 3.75.3 years, compared to 3.75.2 years at June 30, 2016.2022. At June 30, 2017,2023, CDs with original terms of two years or more totaled $248.8$383.8 million, compared to $204.7$321.5 million at June 30, 2016.
2022.INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS The following table sets forth as of June 30, 20172023 and 2016, management's2022, management’s estimates of the projected changes in net portfolio value in the event of 100, 200, and 300 basis point, instantaneous and permanent increases or decreases in market interest rates. Computations in the table below are based onof prospective effects of hypothetical changes in interest rates and are based on an internally generated model using the actual maturity and repricing schedules for Southern Bank'sBank’s loans and deposits, adjusted by management'smanagement’s assumptions for prepayment rates and deposit runoff. Further, the computations do not consider any reactions that the Bank may undertake in response to changes in interest rates. These projected changes should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results in any of the aforementioned interest rate changes. Management cannot accurately predict future interest rates or their effect on the Company'sCompany’s NPV and net interest income in the future. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the computation of NPV and net interest income.NPV. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. Additionally, most of Southern Bank'sBank’s loans have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the foregoing table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. | June 30, 2017 | | Change in Rates |

The Company’s growth strategy has included the origination of fixed-rate loans, as discussed under Item 7a “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” above. The Company’s interest rate sensitivity has increased over the recent period as a result of these originations and due to the behavior of fixed-rate borrowers in a higher interest rate environment, but this increased sensitivity was partially offset by the fiscal 2023 Citizens merger, as the acquired balance sheet included a higher percentage of rate sensitive assets. The Company has worked to limit its exposure to rising rates in the current historically low rate environment by (a) increasing the share of funding on its balance sheet obtained from non-maturity transaction accounts, (b) limiting short-term FHLB borrowings and (c) limiting the duration of its available-for-sale investment portfolio.

The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. Allowances for Credit Losses The Company’s loan portfolio totaled $3.6 billion as of June 30, 2023 and the associated allowance for credit losses on loans was $47.8 million. The Company’s unfunded loan commitments totaled $757.7 million, with an associated allowance for credit loss of $6.3 million. Together these amounts represent the allowances for credit losses (“ACL”). As discussed in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the allowance for credit losses related to loans is a contra-asset valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected. As discussed in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the allowance for credit losses related to unfunded commitments is a liability account and is included in other liabilities. The amount of each allowance account represented management’s best estimate of current expected credit losses on these financial instruments considering all relevant available information, from internal controland external sources, relevant to assessing exposure to credit loss over the contractual term of the instrument. In calculating the allowance for credit losses, loans were segmented into pools based upon similar risk characteristics. For each of these loan pools, management measured expected credit losses over the life of each loan utilizing either a remaining life model or a discounted cash flow (DCF) model. The remaining life model used historical internal and peer loss rates applied to the estimated remaining life of each pool. For the DCF model, management generates cash flow projections at the instrument level adjusting payment expectations for estimated prepayment speed, curtailments, time to recovery, probability of default and loss given default. The Company uses regression analysis of historical internal and peer data to determine suitable loss drivers while modeling lifetime probability of default and loss given default. The Company’s analysis also determines how expected probability of default and loss given default will react to forecasted levels of the loss drivers. The models were adjusted to reflect the current impact of certain macroeconomic variables as well as their expected changes over a reasonable and supportable forecast period. After the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the forecasted macroeconomic variables were reverted to their historical mean utilizing a rational, systematic basis. Additional qualitative adjustments are applied for risk factors that are not considered within the modeling process but are relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within the loan pools. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis, which may be based on the fair value of the collateral or a discounted cash flow model of expected cash flows. For unfunded commitments, the Company applies expected funding percentages to the respective model loss rates based on similar risk characteristics to estimate the allowance for credit losses. Auditing management’s estimate of the ACL and allowance for unfunded commitments involves a high degree of subjectivity due to the complexities of the key assumptions used, such as applicable loss drivers for collectively evaluated segments of the loan portfolio and the timing and amount of cash flows for individually analyzed loans. Management’s identification and measurement of the qualitative factor adjustments is highly judgmental and had a significant effect on the ACL. There was a high degree of auditor judgment involved, due to the significant judgments made by management related to significant assumptions used and related uncertainty in determining the ACL. Therefore, there was an increased level of audit effort when performing audit procedures to evaluate ACL. How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit The primary procedures we performed related to this CAM included: | ● | Obtained an understanding of the Company’s process for establishing the ACL, including the implementation of models and assumptions and the qualitative factor adjustments of the ACL |
| ● | Evaluated and tested the design and operating effectiveness of related controls over the reliability and accuracy of data used to calculate and estimate the various components of the ACL including: |
| o | Loan data completeness and accuracy |
| o | Grouping of loans based on similar risk characteristics |
| o | Use of historical internal data and external peer data |
| o | Approval of model assumptions selected |
| o | Establishment of qualitative factors |
| ● | Tested the mathematical accuracy of the calculation of the ACL |
| ● | Performed reviews of individual credit files and internally prepared loan review reports and support to evaluate the reasonableness of loan credit risk ratings |
| ��� | Tested the completeness and accuracy, including the evaluation of the relevance and reliability, of inputs utilized in the calculation of the ACL |
| ● | Evaluated the reasonableness of selected loss drivers utilized and loss driver forecasts for loan segments |
| ● | Tested the reasonableness of specific allowances on individually reviewed loans |
| ● | Tested the reasonableness of the peer group utilized for inclusion with the selected loss drivers |
| ● | Evaluated analytically credit quality trends in delinquencies, non-accruals, charge-offs and loan risk ratings |
| ● | Evaluated the overall reasonableness of the ACL considering trends identified within peer groups |
| ● | Tested significant assumptions used in the estimation of the ACL of unfunded loan commitments |
| ● | Evaluated qualitative adjustments made to the ACL, including assessing the reasonableness and basis for those adjustments in estimating the ACL |
| ● | Tested management’s estimate surrounding the initial ACL impact of the Citizens’ Bancshares, Co. business combination, including assessing the reasonableness and accuracy of the assumptions included as part of the estimate |
Business Combination Description of the Matter As described in Note 14 to the consolidated financial reporting.statements, the Company completed an acquisition with a bank holding company during the year ended June 30, 2023, resulting in the expansion of the Company’s operating footprint and additional goodwill of approximately $23 million being recognized on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Management determined that the acquisition qualified as a business combination. Accordingly, all /s/ BKD, LLP
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed were valued at fair value as part of the purchase price allocation as of the acquisition date. The identification and valuation of such acquired assets and assumed liabilities requires management to exercise significant judgment and consider the use of outside vendors to estimate the fair value allocations. We identified the acquisition and the related valuation of acquired assets and assumed liabilities as a critical audit matter. Auditing the acquired net assets and acquisition-related considerations involved a high degree of subjectivity in evaluating management’s operational assumptions of the acquisitions, fair value estimates, purchase price allocations, and assessing the appropriateness of management’s valuation models. How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit The primary procedures we performed to address the accounting for the business combinations included: | ● | Obtained and reviewed the executed Agreement and Plan of Merger document to gain an understanding of the underlying terms of the completed acquisition |
| ● | Obtained and reviewed management’s business combination memo to gain an understanding of the procedures performed to identify and calculate the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities |
| ● | Tested management’s business combination accounting analysis, focusing on the completeness and accuracy of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the related fair value purchase price allocation |
| ● | Obtained valuation estimates related to the core deposit intangible, wealth management intangible, and loan fair value prepared by the Company’s external valuation specialists and challenged management’s analysis of the appropriateness of the valuations allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed; including but not limited to, testing of critical inputs, assumptions applied, and valuation models utilized |
| ● | Utilized FORVIS’s internal valuation specialists to assist with evaluating the related fair value purchase price allocations made to certain identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed |
| ● | Tested the goodwill calculation resulting from the completed acquisition, which is the difference between the total net consideration paid and the fair value of the net assets acquired |
| ● | Evaluated the accuracy and completeness of the disclosures made in the consolidated financial statements |

NOTE 1: Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization. Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the Company) was organized in 1994 and is the parent company of Southern Bank (the Bank). Substantially all of the Company'sCompany’s consolidated revenues are derived from the operations of the Bank, and the Bank represents substantially all of the Company'sCompany’s consolidated assets and liabilities. SB Real Estate Investments, LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank formed to hold Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC. Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC is a real estate investment trust (REIT) which is controlled by the investment subsidiary, whichSB Real Estate Investments, LLC, and has other preferred shareholders in order to meet the requirements to be a REIT. At June 30, 2017,2023, assets of the REIT were approximately $435 million,$1.4 billion, and consisted primarily of real estate loan participations acquired from the Bank.
The Bank is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking and financial services to individuals and corporate customers in its market areas. The Bank and Company are subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank and Company are subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and general practices within the banking industry. In the normal course of business, the Company encounters two significant types of risk: economic and regulatory. Economic risk is comprised of interest rate risk, credit risk, and market risk. The Company is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities reprice on a different basis than its interest-earning assets. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company'sCompany’s investment or loan portfolios resulting from the borrowers'borrowers’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of the investment portfolio, collateral underlying loans receivable, and the value of the Company'sCompany’s investments in real estate.
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank.subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
On July 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, also known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) standard, which created material changes to the existing critical accounting policy that existed at June 30, 2020. Effective July 1, 2020, the significant accounting policy which was considered to be the most critical in preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements is the determination of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loancredit losses, and estimated fair values of purchased loans, other-than-temporary impairments (OTTI), and fair value of financial instruments.
loans.Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash, due from depository institutions and interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions were $6.7$3.8 million and $10.5$47.3 million at June 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively. The deposits are held in various commercial banks in amounts notwith a total of $1.3 million and $5.8 million exceeding the FDIC'sFDIC deposit insurance limits at June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, as well as at the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines and Chicago. Interest-bearing Time Deposits. Interest-bearingInterest bearing deposits in banks mature within seventhree years and are carried at cost.
Available for Sale Securities. Available for sale securities (“AFS”), which include any security for which the Company has no immediate plan to sell but which may be sold in the future, are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders'stockholders’ equity. All securities have been classified as available for sale.
Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized or accreted as adjustments to income over the estimated life of the security using the level yield method. Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities is based on the specific identification method. The fair value of securities is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.
The Company does not invest in collateralized mortgage obligations that are considered high risk. When the Company does not intend to sell a debt security, and it is more likelyFor AFS securities with fair value less than not the Company will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it recognizes the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income. As a result of this guidance, the Company's consolidated balance sheet for the dates presented reflects the full impairment (that is, the difference between the security's amortized cost basis and fair value) on debt securities that the Company intends to sell or would more likely than not be required to sell before the expected recovery of the amortized cost basis. For available-for-sale debt securities that management has no intent to sell and believes that it more likely than not will not be required to sell prior to recovery, only the credit loss component of the impairment is recognized in earnings, while the noncredit loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income.income (loss). The credit loss component recognized in earnings is identified as the amount of principal cash flows not expected to be received over the remaining term of the security as projected based on cash flow projections.
projections, and is recorded to the ACL, by a charge to provision for credit losses. Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Both the ACL and the adjustment to net income may be reversed if conditions change. However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired AFS security, or, if it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount would 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.The Company evaluates impaired AFS securities at the individual level on a quarterly basis, and considers factors including, but not limited to: the extent to which the fair value of the security is less than the amortized cost basis; adverse conditions specifically related to the security, an industry, or geographic area; the payment structure of the security and likelihood of the issuer to be able to make payments that may increase in the future; failure of the issuer to make scheduled interest or principal payments; any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency; and the ability and intent to hold the security until maturity. A qualitative determination as to whether any portion of the impairment is attributable to credit risk is acceptable. There were no credit related factors underlying unrealized losses on AFS securities at June 30, 2023, or June 30, 2022. Changes in the ACL are recorded as expense. Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes the uncollectability of an AFS debt security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) systems. Capital stock of the Federal Reserve and the FHLB is a required investment based upon a predetermined formula and is carried at cost.
Loans. Loans are generally stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses andACL, any net deferred loan origination fees.
fees, and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.Interest on loans is accrued based upon the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when, in management'smanagement’s judgment, the collectability of interest or principal in the normal course of business is doubtful. The Company complies with regulatory guidance which indicates that loans should be placed in nonaccrual status when 90 days past due, unless the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection. A loan that is "in“in the process of collection"collection” may be subject to legal action or, in appropriate circumstances, through other collection efforts reasonably expected to result in repayment or restoration to current status in the near future. A loan is considered delinquent when a payment has not been made by the contractual due date. Interest income previously accrued but not collected at the date a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Cash receipts on a nonaccrual loan are applied to principal and interest in accordance with its contractual terms unless full payment of principal is not expected, in which case cash receipts, whether designated as principal or interest, are applied as a reduction of the carrying value of the loan. A nonaccrual loan is generally returned to accrual status when principal and interest payments are current, full collectability of principal and interest is reasonably assured, and a consistent record of performance has been demonstrated.
The allowanceACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans, and is established through provision for credit losses on loans represents management's best estimate of losses probable in the existing loan portfolio.charged to current earnings. The allowance for losses on loansACL is increased by the provision for losses on loans charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. Loans are charged off in the period deemed uncollectible, based on management'smanagement’s analysis of expected cash flows (for non-collateral dependent loans) or collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans). Subsequent recoveries of loans previously charged off, if any, are credited to the allowance when received. Management estimates the ACL using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments may be made to historical loss information for differences identified in current loan-specific risk characteristics, such as differences in underwriting standards or terms; lending review systems; experience, ability, or depth of lending management and staff; portfolio growth and mix; delinquency levels and trends; as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in economic activity or employment, agricultural economic conditions, property values, or other relevant factors. The provision forCompany generally incorporates a reasonable and supportable forecast period of four quarters, and a four-quarter, straight-line reversion period to return to long-term historical averages. The ACL is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. For loans that do not share general risk characteristics with the collectively evaluated pools, the Company estimates credit losses on an individual loan basis, and these loans are excluded from the collectively evaluated pools. An ACL for an individually evaluated loan is determined based on management's assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes inrecorded when the nature and volumeamortized cost basis of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions andexceeds the related impact on specific borrowers and industry groups, historical loan loss experience, the level of classified and nonperforming loans, and the results of regulatory examinations.
Loans are considered impaired if, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Depending on a particular loan's circumstances, we measure impairment of a loan based upon either the present value of expected futurediscounted estimated cash flows discounted atusing the loan'sloan’s initial effective interest rate the loan's observable market price, or the fair value, of the collateral less estimated costs to sell, ifof the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. For the collectively evaluated pools, the Company segments the loan isportfolio primarily by loan purpose and collateral dependent. Valuation allowancesinto 24 pools, which are established for collateral-dependent impaired loans for the difference between the loan amount and fair valuehomogeneous groups of collateral less estimated selling costs. For impaired loans that possess similar loss potential characteristics. The Company primarily utilizes the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology for measurement of the required ACL. For a limited number of pools with a relatively small balance of unpaid principal balance, the Company utilized the remaining life method. The DCF model implements probability of default (“PD”) and loss given default (“LGD”) calculations at the instrument level. PD and LGD are determined based on a regression analysis and correlation of historical losses with various economic factors over time. In general, the Company’s losses have not collateral dependent, a valuation allowance is established for the difference between the loan amountcorrelated well with economic factors, and the present valueCompany has utilized peer data where more appropriate. The Company defines a default as an event of expected future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest ratecharge off, an adverse (substandard or the observable market priceworse) internal credit rating, becoming delinquent 90 days or more, or being placed on nonaccrual status. A PD/LGD estimate is applied to a projected model of the loan. Impairment losses are recognized through an increase in the required allowance for loan losses. Cash receipts on loans deemed impaired are recorded based on the loan's separate status as a nonaccrual loan or an accrual status loan.loan’s cashflow,
Some loans are accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. For these loans ("purchased credit impaired loans"), the Company recorded a fair value discount and began carrying them at book value less their face amount (see Note 4). For these loans, we determined the contractual amount and timing
including principal and interest payments, (the "undiscounted contractual cash flows"),with consideration for prepayment speeds, principal curtailments, and estimatedrecovery lag. Subsequent to the amountJuly 1, 2020, adoption of ASU 2016-13, loans acquired in a business combination that have experienced more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination are considered purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans. At the acquisition date, an estimate of expected credit losses is made for groups of PCD loans with similar risk characteristics and timingindividual PCD loans without similar risk characteristics. This initial ACL is allocated to individual PCD loans and added to the purchase price or acquisition date fair values to establish the initial amortized cost basis of undiscounted expected principal and interest payments, including expected prepayments (the "undiscounted expected cash flows"). Under acquired impaired loan accounting, the PCD loans. As the initial ACL is added to the purchase price, there is no credit loss expense recognized upon acquisition of a PCD loan. Any difference between the undiscounted contractual cash flows and the undiscounted expected cash flows is the nonaccretable difference. The nonaccretable difference is an estimateunpaid principal balance of the loss exposure of principal and interest related to the purchased credit impairedPCD loans and the amountamortized cost basis is subjectconsidered to changerelate to non-credit factors and results in a discount or premium. Discounts and premiums are recognized through interest income on a level-yield method over timethe life of the loans.Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the amortized cost basis of the PCD assets were adjusted to reflect the addition of $434,000 to the ACL. The remaining noncredit discount, based on the performance of the loans. The carrying value of purchased credit impaired loans is initially determined as the discounted expected cash flows. The excess of expected cash flows at acquisition over the initial fair value of the purchased credit impaired loans is referred to as the "accretable yield" and is recorded asadjusted amortized cost basis, will be accreted into interest income overat the estimated lifeeffective interest rate as of the acquired loans using the level-yield method, if the timing and amount of the future cash flows is reasonably estimable. The carrying value of purchased credit impaired loans is reduced by payments received, both principal and interest, and increased by the portion of the accretable yield recognized as interest income. Subsequent to acquisition, the Company evaluates the purchased credit impaired loans on a quarterly basis. Increases in expected cash flows compared to those previously estimated increase the accretable yield and are recognized as interest income prospectively. Decreases in expected cash flows compared to those previously estimated decrease the accretable yield and may result in the establishment of an allowance for loan losses and a provision for loan losses. Purchased credit impaired loans are generally considered accruing and performing loans, as the loans accrete interest income over the estimated life of the loan when expected cash flows are reasonably estimable. Accordingly, purchased credit impaired loans that are contractually past due are still considered to be accruing and performing as long as there is an expectation that the estimated cash flows will be received. If the timing and amount of cash flows is not reasonably estimable, the loans may be classified as nonaccrual loans.
July 1, 2020.Loan fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred, and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method over the contractual life of the loans.
Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures. Off-balance sheet credit instruments include 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 non-performance 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 ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is estimated by loan pool on a quarterly basis under the current CECL 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. The Company records an ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures, unless the commitments to extend credit are unconditionally cancelable. In prior periods the charge for credit loss expense for off-balance sheet credit exposures was included in other non-interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income, whereas under updated regulatory accounting guidelines, that figure is combined with the provision for credit losses beginning July 1, 2020. Foreclosed Real Estate. Real estate acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs.costs, establishing a new cost basis. Costs for development and improvement of the property are capitalized.
Valuations are periodically performed by management, and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property exceeds its estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs.
Loans to facilitate the sale of real estate acquired in foreclosure are discounted if made at less than market rates. Discounts are amortized over the fixed interest period of each loan using the interest method.
Premises and Equipment. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and include expenditures for major betterments and renewals. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. When property is retired or sold, the retired asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss taken into income. The Company reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment loss recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Depreciation is computed by use of straight-line and accelerated methodsmethod over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated lives are generally seven to forty years for premises, three to seven years for equipment, and three years for software. Bank Owned Life Insurance. Bank owned life insurance policies are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at the estimated cash surrender value. Changes in the cash surrender value of these policies, as well as a portion of the insurance proceeds received, are recorded in noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.
Intangible Assets. Goodwill. The Company's intangible assets at June 30, 2017 included gross core deposit intangibles of $9.2 million with $3.8 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $3.8 million with accumulated amortization of $3.8 million, and FHLB mortgage servicing rights of $1.3 million. At June 30, 2016, the Company's intangible assets included gross core deposit intangibles of $5.9 million with $3.0 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $3.8 million with accumulated amortization of $3.8 million, and FHLB mortgage servicing rights of $275,000. The Company's core deposit intangible assets are being amortized using the straight line method, over periods ranging from five to seven years, with amortization expense expected to be approximately $1.4 million in fiscal 2018, $1.1 million in fiscal 2019, $982,000 in fiscal 2020, $523,000 in fiscal 2021, and $482,000 in fiscal 2022.
Goodwill. The Company'sCompany’s goodwill is evaluated annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. A qualitative assessment is performed to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not the fair value is less than the carrying amount, including goodwill. If, based on the evaluation, it is determined to be more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, then goodwill is tested further for impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, a goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
As of June 30, 2023, there was no impairment indicated, based on a qualitative assessment of goodwill, which considered: the market value of the Company’s common stock, concentrations of credit; profitability; nonperforming assets; capital levels; and results of recent regulatory examinations.Intangible Assets. The Company’s intangible assets at June 30, 2023 included gross core deposit intangibles of $39.1 million with $14.0 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $6.4 million with accumulated amortization of $3.9 million, and mortgage and SBA servicing rights of $2.9 million. At June 30, 2022, the Company’s intangible assets included gross core deposit intangibles of $17.0 million with $11.5 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $3.8 million with accumulated amortization of $3.8 million, and mortgage servicing rights of $2.7 million. The Company’s core deposit intangible assets are being amortized using the straight line method, over periods ranging from five to ten years, with amortization expense expected to be approximately $4.1 million in fiscal 2024, $3.5 million in fiscal 2025, $3.0 million in fiscal 2026, $2.7 million in fiscal 2027, $2.7 million in fiscal 2028, and $11.5 million thereafter. As of June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022, there was no impairment indicated. Income Taxes. T heThe Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.
Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to the management'smanagement’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense.
The Company files consolidated income tax returns with its subsidiary.subsidiaries, the Bank and SB Real Estate Investments, LLC, with a tax year ended June 30. Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC files a separate REIT return for federal tax purposes, and also files state income tax returns with a tax year ended December 31. Incentive Plan. Plans. The Company accounts for its Management and Recognition Plan (MRP) and Equity Incentive Plan (EIP), and Omnibus Incentive Plan (OIP) in accordance with ASC 718, "Share-Based“Share-Based Payment."” Compensation expense is based on the market price of the Company'sCompany’s stock on the date the shares are granted and is recorded over the vesting period. The difference between the grant-date fair value and the fair value on the date the shares are considered earned represents a tax benefit to the Company that is recorded as an adjustment to additional paid in capital.
Outside Directors'income tax expense.Non-Employee Directors’ Retirement. The Bank adopted a directors'entered into directors’ retirement planagreements beginning in April 1994 for outside directors. The directors'non-employee directors and continued to do so for new non-employee directors joining the Bank’s board through December 2014. These directors’ retirement plan providesagreements provide that each participating non-employee director (participant) shall receive, upon termination of service on the Board on or after age 60, other than termination for cause, a benefit in equal annual installments over a five year period. The benefit will be based upon the product of the participant'sparticipant’s vesting percentage and the total Board fees paid to the participant during the calendar year preceding termination of service on the Board. The vesting percentage shall be determined based upon the participant'sparticipant’s years of service on the Board, whether before or after the reorganization date.
Board.In the event that the participant dies before collecting any or all of the benefits, the Bank shall pay the participant'sparticipant’s beneficiary. No benefitsBenefits shall not be payable to anyone other than the beneficiary, and shall terminate on the death of the beneficiary.
Stock Options. C ompensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued, and recognized over the vesting period during which an employee provides service in exchange for the award.
Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share available to common stockholders is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders includes the effect of all weighted-average dilutive potential common shares (stock options and warrants)restricted stock grants) outstanding during each year. All per share data has been restated to reflect the two-for-one common stock split in the form of a 100% common stock dividend paid on January 30, 2015.
period.Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes. Other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities for which a portion of an other-than-temporary impairment has been recognized in income, and changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans.
Transfers Between Fair Value Hierarchy Levels. Transfers in and out of Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (other significant observable inputs) and Level 3 (significant unobservable inputs) are recognized on the period ending date. Wealth Management Assets and Fees. Assets managed in fiduciary or investment management accounts by the Company are not included in the consolidated balance sheets since such items are not assets of the Company or its subsidiaries. Fees from fiduciary or investment management activities are recorded on a cash basis over the period in which the service is provided. Fees are generally a function of the market value of assets managed and administered, the volume of transactions, and fees for other services rendered, as set forth in the agreement between the customer and the Company. This revenue recognition involves the use of estimates and assumptions, including components that are calculated based on asset valuations and transaction volumes. Any out-of-pocket expenses or services not typically covered by the fee schedule for fiduciary activities are charged directly to the account on a gross basis as revenue is incurred. The Southern Wealth Management division held fiduciary assets totaling $102.0 million and $0 as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and investment management assets totaling $464.2 million and $252.3 million as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The following paragraphs summarize the impact of new accounting pronouncements:
In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs: Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities (Subtopic 310-20). The Update amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The Update requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. For public companies, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company elected to adopt the ASU early, and there was not a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The objective of the Update is to expand the simplification of the subsequent measurement of goodwill to include public business entities and not-for-profit entities. The simplification eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test, which measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. For public companies that are U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filers, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods, and should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. Management is evaluating the impact of the new guidance, but does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The Update provides guidance to improve the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. Under the new guidance, companies should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. Intellectual property and property, plant, and equipment, are two common examples of assets included in the scope of this Update. For public companies, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is evaluating the impact of the new guidance, but does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash payments. The Update provides guidance on how certain cash receipts and payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows, with the objective of reducing the diversity in practice. The Update addresses eight specific cash flow issues. For public companies, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and should be applied retrospectively. Management is evaluating the impact of the new guidance, but does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)., which the Company adopted July 1, 2020. The Update amendsamended guidance on reporting credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. For financial assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminateseliminated the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The Update affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. For public companies, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is available beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption will bewas applied on a modified retrospective basis, through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. ManagementAdoption resulted in an increase to the ACL of $8.9 million, related to the transition from the incurred loss model to the CECL ACL model, and an increase of $434,000 related to the transition from PCI to PCD methodology, relative to the ALLL as of June 30, 2020. The Company also recorded an adjustment to the reserve for unfunded commitments recorded in other liabilities of $268,000. The impact at adoption was reflected as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings, net of income taxes, in the amount of $7.2 million. In accordance with the new standard, management did not reassess whether PCI assets met the criteria of PCD assets as of the date of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 in fiscal 2021 could also impact the Company’s future earnings, perhaps materially. The following table illustrates the impact of adoption of ASU 2016-13: | | | | | | | | | | | | July 1, 2020 | | | As reported | | As reported | | Impact of | | | under | | prior to | | adoption | (dollars in thousands) | | ASU 2016-13 | | ASU 2016-13 | | ASU 2016-13 | | | | | | | | | | | Loans receivable | | $ | 2,142,363 | | $ | 2,141,929 | | $ | 434 | Allowance for credit losses on loans: | | | | | | | | | | Real Estate Loans: | | | | | | | | | | Residential | | | 8,396 | | | 4,875 | | | 3,521 | Construction | | | 1,889 | | | 2,010 | | | (121) | Commercial | | | 15,988 | | | 12,132 | | | 3,856 | Consumer loans | | | 2,247 | | | 1,182 | | | 1,065 | Commercial loans | | | 5,952 | | | 4,940 | | | 1,012 | Total allowance for credit losses on loans | | $ | 34,472 | | $ | 25,139 | | $ | 9,333 | Total allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures | | $ | 2,227 | | $ | 1,959 | | $ | 268 |
The above table includes the impact of ASU 2016-13 adoption for PCD assets previously classified as PCI. The change in the ACL includes $434,000 attributable to residential and commercial real estate loans, and the amortized cost basis of loans receivable was increased for those loans by that total amount. In March 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law, creating a forbearance program for federally backed mortgage loans, protects borrowers from negative credit reporting due to loan accommodations related to the National Emergency, and provides financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to troubled debt restructurings (TDR) for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. The Company elected to not apply ASC Subtopic 310-40 for loans eligible under the CARES Act, based on the modification’s (1) relation to COVID-19, (2) execution for a loan that was not more than 30-days past due as of December 31, 2019, and (3) execution between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of the date that falls 60 days following the termination of the declared National Emergency, or December 31, 2020. The 2021 Consolidated Appropriations Act, signed into law in December 2020, extended the window during which loans could have been modified without classification as TDRs under ASC Subtopic 310-40, to the earlier of January 1, 2022, or 60 days following the termination of the declared National Emergency. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (Topic 848)," to provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. LIBOR and other interbank offered rates have been widely used benchmarks or reference rates in the United States and globally. Trillions of dollars in loans, derivatives, and other financial contracts reference LIBOR, the benchmark interest rate banks use to make short-term loans to each other. With global capital markets expected to move away from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates and move toward rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation, the FASB launched a broad project in late 2018 to address potential accounting challenges expected to arise from the transition. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The ASU is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. Originally, an entity could apply this ASU as of the beginning of an interim period that includes the March 12, 2020 issuance date of the ASU, through December 31, 2022. With the issuance of ASU 2022-06 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, the sunset date for adoption of ASU 2020-04 was extended from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company is evaluating the impact thatof this new guidance willASU but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company'sCompany’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2021, the FASB has published ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform. (Topic 848)”. ASU 2021-01 clarified that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The ASU also amended the expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 to capture the incremental consequences of the scope clarification and to tailor the existing guidance to derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition. An entity may elect to apply the amendments in this update on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or on a prospective basis to new modifications from any date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to the date of the issuance of a final update, up to the date that financial statements are available to be issued. If an entity elects to apply any of the amendments in this update for an eligible hedging relationship, any adjustments as a result of those elections must be reflected as of the date the entity applies the election. Originally, the amendments in this update did not apply to contract modifications made after December 31, 2022, new hedging relationships entered into after December 31, 2022, and existing hedging relationships evaluated for effectiveness in periods after December 31, 2022 except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that apply certain optional expedients in which the accounting effects are recorded through the end of the hedging relationship (including periods after December 31, 2022). With the issuance of ASU 2022-06 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, the sunset date for adoption of ASU 2021-01 was extended from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company is evaluating the data and systems requirementsimpact of adoption ofthis ASU but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Update.
Company’s consolidated financial statements. In March 2016,2022, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock CompensationNo. 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 718)326), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The objective of the Update is to simplifyTroubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.” ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting guidance for share-based payment transactions, includingTDRs in ASC 310-40, “Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors” for entities that have adopted the accountingCECL model introduced by ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2022-02 also requires that public business entities disclose current-period gross charge offs by year of origination for income taxesfinancing receivables and forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements, classificationnet investments in leases within the scope of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public companies, theSubtopic 326-20, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measured at Amortized Cost.” ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is evaluating2022, for entities that have adopted the impact ofamendments in ASU 2016-13, and the new guidance, butCompany does not expect the adoption of this guidanceASU to have a material impact on the Company'sits consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016,March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases,"2023-02, “Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” This ASU permits reporting entities to reviseelect to account for tax equity investments, regardless of the accounting related to lease accounting.tax credit program for which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the new guidance,proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the income tax credits and other income tax benefits received and recognizes the net amortization and income tax credits and other income tax benefits in the income statement as a lessee is requiredcomponent of income tax expense. A reporting entity makes an accounting policy election to recordapply the proportional amortization method on a right-of-use (ROU) assettax-credit-program-by-tax-credit-program basis rather than electing to apply the proportional amortization method at the reporting entity level or to individual investments. This ASU also requires specific disclosures of investments that generate income tax credits and other income tax benefits from a lease liability ontax credit program for which the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months.entity has elected to apply the proportional amortization method. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the standard requires the use of a modified retrospective transition approach for all periods presented at the time of adoption. Management is evaluating the impact of the new guidance, but2023. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidanceASU 2023-02 to have a material impact on the Company'sits consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities," to generally require equity investments be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily-determinable fair value, and change disclosure and presentation requirements regarding financial instruments and other comprehensive income, and clarify that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity's other deferred tax assets. For public entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is evaluating the new guidance, but does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Summary and Amendments that Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers (Subtopic 340-40). The guidance in this Update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the industry topics of the codification. For public companies, the original Update was to be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The current ASU states that the provisions of ASU 2014-09 should be applied to annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017.

Obligations of state and political subdivisions. The unrealized losses on the Company'sCompany’s investments in U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities, and obligations of state and political subdivisions include 27 individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and 52 individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. The securities are performing and are of high credit quality. The unrealized losses were caused by increases in market interest rates. The contractual terms of these instruments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments.rates since purchase or acquisition. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investmentsthese securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the investments beforethese securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company has not recorded an ACL on these securities. Corporate and other Obligations. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in corporate obligations include 16 individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and 14 individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. The securities are performing and are of high credit quality. The unrealized losses were caused by increases in market interest rates since purchase or acquisition. Because the Company does not considerintend to sell these investmentssecurities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2017.
Othermaturity, the Company has not recorded an ACL on these securities.At June 30, 2017, there were three2023, corporate obligations included two pooled trust preferred securities with an estimated fair value of $824,000$698,000 and unrealized losses of $590,000$282,000 in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more. These unrealized losses were primarily due to the long-term nature of the pooled trust preferred securities, and a reduced demand for these securities, and concerns regarding the financial institutions that issuedissuers of the underlying trust preferred securities. Rules adopted by the federal banking agencies in December 2013 to implement Section 619 of the Dodd-Frank Act (the "Volcker Rule") generally prohibit banking entities from engaging in proprietary trading and from investing in, sponsoring, or having certain relationships with a hedge fund or private equity fund. All pooled trust preferred securities owned by the Company were included in a January 2014 listing of securities which the agencies considered to be grandfathered with regard to these prohibitions; as such, banking entities are permitted to retain their interest in these securities, provided the interest was acquired on or before December 10, 2013, unless acquired pursuant to a merger or acquisition.
The June 30, 2017,A cash flow analysis performed as of June 30, 2023, for these threetwo securities indicated it is probable the Company will receive all contracted principal and related interest projected. The cash flow analysis used in making this determination was based on anticipated default, recovery, and prepayment rates, and the resulting cash flows were discounted based on the yield spread anticipated at the time the securities were purchased. Other inputs include the actual collateral attributes, which include credit ratings and other performance indicators of the underlying financial institutions, including profitability, capital ratios, and asset quality. Assumptions for these three securities included annualized prepayments of 1.3 to 1.7 percent; recoveries of 21 percent on currently deferred issuers within the next two years; new deferrals of 48 to 50 basis points annually; and eventual recoveries of eight to nine percent of new deferrals.
One of these three securities has continued to receive cash interest payments in full since our purchase; two of the three securities received principal-in-kind (PIK), in lieu of cash interest, for a period of time following the recession and financial crisis which began in 2008, but have since resumed cash interest payments. One of the two securities which were in PIK status resumed cash interest payments during fiscal 2014, and the second resumed cash interest payments during fiscal 2017. Our cash flow analysis indicates that cash interest payments are expected to continue for the three securities. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not more-likely-than-not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company has not recorded an ACL on these securities.Asset-Backed securities. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in asset-backed securities includes seven individual securities which has been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and two individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. The securities are performing and are of high credit quality. The unrealized loss was caused by variations in market interest rates since purchase or acquisition. Because the Company does not considerintend to sell these investmentssecurities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2017.

However, the Company could be required to recognize OTTI lossesan ACL in future periods with respect to its available for sale investment securities portfolio. The amount and timing of any additional OTTI will depend on the decline in the underlying cash flows of the securities. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

The Company'sCompany’s lending activities consist of origination of loans secured by mortgages on one- to four-family residences and commercial and agricultural real estate, construction loans on residential and commercial properties, commercial and agricultural business loans and consumer loans. The Company has also occasionallyAt June 30, 2023, the Bank had purchased loan participation interests originated by other lenders and secured by properties generally locatedin 86 loans totaling $155.6 million, as compared to 31 loans totaling $70.0 million at June 30, 2022, with the increase due primarily to participations acquired in the states of Missouri and Arkansas.
Citizens merger.Residential Mortgage Lending. The Company actively originates loans for the acquisition or refinance of one- to four-family residences. This category includes both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM"(“ARM”) loans amortizing over periods of up to 30 years, and the properties securing such loans may be owner-occupied or non-owner-occupied. Single-family residential loans do not generally exceed 90% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property. Substantially all of the one- to four-family residential mortgage originations in the Company'sCompany’s portfolio are located within the Company'sCompany’s primary lending area.
General risks related to one- to four-family residential lending include stability of borrower income and collateral values.The Company also originates loans secured by multi-family residential properties that are often located outside the Company'sCompany’s primary lending area but made to borrowers who operate within theour primary market area. The majority of the multi-family residential loans that are originated by the BankCompany are amortized over periods generally up to 25 years, with balloon maturities typically up to ten years. Both fixed and adjustable interest rates are offered and it is typical for the Company to include an interest rate "floor"“floor” and "ceiling"“ceiling” in the loan agreement. Generally, multi-family residential loans do not exceed 85% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property. General risks related to multi-family residential lending include rental demand and supply, rental rates, and vacancies, as well as collateral values and borrower leverage. Commercial Real Estate Lending.The Company actively originates loans secured by owner- and non-owner-occupied commercial real estate including farmland, single- and multi-tenant retail properties, restaurants, hotels, land (improved unimproved, and farmland)unimproved), strip shoppingnursing homes and other healthcare facilities, warehouses and distribution centers, retail establishmentsconvenience stores, automobile dealerships and other automotive-related services, and other businesses. These properties are typically owned and operated by borrowers headquartered within the Company'sCompany’s primary lending area, however, the property may be located outside our primary lending area. Approximately $156.0$618.6 million of our $603.9 millionthe Company’s $1.6 billion in commercial real estate loans are secured by properties located outside our primary lending area.
Risks to owner-occupied commercial real estate lending generally include the continued profitable operation of the borrower’s enterprise, as well as general collateral values, and may be heightened by unique, specific uses of the property serving as collateral. Non-owner-occupied commercial real estate lending risks include tenant demand and performance, lease rates, and vacancies, as well as collateral values and borrower leverage. These factors may be influenced by general economic conditions in the region, or in the United States generally. Risks to lending on farmland include unique factors such as commodity prices, yields, input costs, and weather, as well as farmland values.Most commercial real estate loans originated by the Company generally are based on amortization schedules of up to 25 years with monthly principal and interest payments. Generally, the interest rate received on these loans is fixed for a maturity for up to seventen years, with a balloon payment due at maturity. Alternatively, for some loans, the interest rate adjusts at least annually after an initial period up to seven years. The Company typically includes an interest rate "floor"“floor” in the loan agreement. Generally, improved commercial real estate loan amounts do not exceed 80% of the lower of the appraised value or the purchase price of the secured property. Agricultural real estate terms offered differ slightly, with amortization schedules of up to 25 years with an 80% loan-to-value ratio, or 30 years with a 75% loan-to-value ratio.
Construction Lending. The Company originates real estate loans secured by property or land that is under construction or development. Construction loans originated by the Company are generally secured by mortgage loans forto finance the construction of owner occupied residential real estate, or to finance speculative construction secured byof residential real estate, land development, or owner-operated or non-owner occupied commercial real estate. During construction, these loans typically require monthly interest-only payments, and havewith single-family residential construction loans having maturities ranging from six to twelve months, while multi-family or commercial construction loans typically mature in 12 to 36 months. Once construction is completed, permanent construction loans may be converted to monthly payments using amortization schedules of up to 30 years on residential and generally up to 25 years on commercial real estate.
Construction and development lending risks generally include successful timely and on-budget completion of the project, followed by the sale of the property in the case of land development or non-owner-occupied real estate, or the long-term occupancy of the property by the builder in the case of owner-occupied construction. Changes in real estate values or other economic conditions may impact the ability of a borrower to sell property developed for that purpose.While the Company typically utilizes relatively short maturity periods ranging from 6 to 12 months to closely monitor the inherent risks associated with construction loans for these loans, weather conditions, change orders, availability of materials and/or labor, and other factors may contribute to the lengthening of a project, thus necessitating the need to renew the construction loan at the balloon maturity. Such extensions are typically executed in incremental three month periods to facilitate project completion. The Company'sCompany’s average term of construction loans is approximately eight12 months. During construction, loans typically require monthly interest only payments which may allow the Company an opportunity to monitor for early signs of financial difficulty should the borrower fail to make a required monthly payment. Additionally, during the construction phase, the Company typically performs interim inspections which further allowsprovide the Company an opportunity to assess risk. At June 30, 2017,2023, construction loans outstanding included 5053 loans, totaling $10.3$33.4 million, for which a modification had been agreed to. At June 30, 2016,2022, construction loans outstanding included 4257 loans, totaling $10.3$13.8 million, for which a modification had been agreed to. AllIn general, these modifications were solely for the purpose of extending the maturity date due to conditions described above. None ofabove, pursuant to the Company’s normal underwriting and monitoring procedures. As these modifications were not executed due to financial difficulty on the part of the borrower, and, therefore,they were not accounted for as TDRs.troubled debt restructurings (TDRs). Consumer Lending. The Company offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity, direct and indirect automobile loans, second mortgages, mobile home loans and loans secured by deposits. The Company originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary lending area. Usually, consumer loans are originated with fixed rates for terms of up to five years,66 months, with the exception of home equity lines of credit, which are variable, tied to the prime rate of interest and are for a period of ten years.
Home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) are secured with a deed of trust and are issued up to 100%90% of the appraised or assessed value of the property securing the line of credit, less the outstanding balance on the first mortgage and are typically issued for a term of ten years. Interest rates on the HELOCs are generally adjustable. Interest rates are based upon the loan-to-value ratio of the property with better rates given to borrowers with more equity.
Risks related to HELOC lending generally include the stability of borrower income and collateral values.Automobile loans originated by the Company include both direct loans and a smaller amount of loans originated by auto dealers. The Company generally pays a negotiated fee back to the dealer for indirect loans. Typically, automobile loans are made for terms of up to 6066 months for new and used vehicles. Loans secured by automobiles have fixed rates and are generally made in amounts up to 100% of the purchase price of the vehicle.
Risks to automobile and other consumer lending generally include the stability of borrower income and borrower willingness to repay.Commercial Business Lending . The Company'sCompany’s commercial business lending activities encompass loans with a variety of purposes and security, including loans to finance accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and operating lines of credit, including agricultural production and equipment loans. The Company offers both fixed and adjustable rate commercial business loans. Generally, commercial loans secured by fixed assets are amortized over periods up to five years, while commercial operating lines of credit or agricultural production lines are generally for a one year period. Commercial lending risk is primarily driven by the borrower’s successful generation of cash flow from their business enterprise sufficient to service debt, and may be influenced by factors specific to the borrower and industry, or by general economic conditions in the region or in the United States generally. Agricultural production or equipment lending includes unique risk factors such as commodity prices, yields, input costs, and weather, as well as farm equipment values.Allowance for Credit Losses. The PCL for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, was a charge of $17.1 million, a charge of $1.5 million, and a recovery of $1.0 million, respectively. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, the ACL required for PCD loans acquired in the Citizens merger was $1.1 million, and was funded through purchase accounting adjustments, while the ACL required for non-PCD loans acquired in the Citizens merger was $5.2 million and was funded through a charge to PCL. Additionally, the allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures was increased by $1.8 million due to the Citizens merger and funded through a charge to PCL. Exclusive of the charges required as a result of the Citizens merger, the Company would have recorded a PCL of approximately $10.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, of which $8.9 million was attributable to the required ACL for loan balances outstanding, while $1.2 million was attributable to the required allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the ACL required for PCD loans acquired in the Fortune merger was $120,000, and was funded through purchase accounting adjustments, while the ACL required for non-PCD loans acquired in the Fortune merger was $1.9 million, and was funded through a charge to PCL. Additionally, the allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures was increased by $120,000 due to the Fortune merger and funded through a charge to PCL. Exclusive of the charges required as a result of the Fortune merger, the Company would have recorded a negative PCL of approximately $533,000 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Exclusive of provisioning required by the Citizens merger, increased provisioning for loan balances outstanding in the year ended June 30, 2023 is attributable primarily to loan growth, qualitative adjustments to modeled results based on levels and trends of industry past due loans, and the unguaranteed portion of a small pool of SBA loans exhibiting signs of credit stress, partially offset by a decreased ACL estimate for classified hotel loans that had been slow to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. Increased provisioning for off-balance sheet credit exposures is attributable primarily to changes in the level and mix of outstanding credit commitments. The Company has estimated its expected credit losses as of June 30, 2023, under ASC 326-20, and management believes the ACL as of that date is adequate based on that estimate. As a percentage of average loans outstanding, the Company recorded net charge offs of 0.02% (annualized) during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, as compared to less than one basis point (annualized) during the same period of the prior fiscal year. Specifically, management considered the following primary items in its estimate of the ACL: ● economic conditions and projections as provided by Moody’s Analytics, including baseline and downside scenarios, were utilized in the Company’s estimate at June 30, 2023. Economic factors considered in the projections included national and state levels of unemployment, and national and state rates of inflation-adjusted growth in the gross domestic product. Economic conditions are considered to be a moderate and stable risk factor, relative to June 30, 2022; ● the pace of growth of the Company’s loan portfolio, exclusive of acquisitions or government guaranteed loans, relative to overall economic growth. This measure is considered to be a moderate and increasing risk factor, relative to June 30, 2022; ● levels and trends for loan delinquencies nationally and in the region. This measure as reported remains relatively stable, and the level of uncertainty about loan delinquencies is considered to be diminishing. This is considered to be a moderate and stable risk factor, relative to June 30, 2022; ● exposure to the hotel industry, in particular, metropolitan area hotels which were negatively impacted by activity restrictions and a lack of business or convention-related travel. This is considered to be an elevated and stable risk factor, relative to June 30, 2022. PCD Loans. In connection with the Citizens Bancshares, Co. (“Citizens”) merger on January 20, 2023, and Fortune Financial Corporation (“Fortune”) merger on February 25, 2022, the Company acquired loans both with and without evidence of credit quality deterioration since origination. Acquired loans are recorded at their fair value at the time of acquisition with no carryover from the acquired institution’s previously recorded allowance for loan and lease losses. Acquired loans are accounted for under ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The fair value of acquired loans recorded at the time of acquisition is based upon several factors, including the timing and payment of expected cash flows, as adjusted for estimated credit losses and prepayments, and then discounting these cash flows using comparable market rates. The resulting fair value adjustment is recorded in the form of a premium or discount to the unpaid principal balance of the respective loans. As it relates to acquired loans that, as of the date of acquisition, have experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination (“PCD”), the net premium or net discount is adjusted to reflect the Company’s allowance for credit losses recorded for PCD loans at the time of acquisition, and the remaining fair value adjustment is accreted or amortized into interest income over the remaining life of the respective loans. As it relates to loans not classified as PCD (“non-PCD”) loans, the credit loss and yield components of their fair value adjustment are aggregated, and the resulting net premium or net discount is accreted or amortized into interest income over the remaining life of the respective loans. The Company records an ACL for non-PCD loans at the time of acquisition through provision expense, and therefore, no further adjustments are made to the net premium or net discount for non-PCD loans. Loans that the Company acquired from Citizens and Fortune that, at the time of acquisition, had more-than-insignificant deterioration of credit quality since origination are classified as PCD loans and presented in the table below at acquisition carrying value: | | | | (dollars in thousands) | | January 20, 2023 | PCD Loans - Citizens | | | | Purchase price of PCD loans at acquisition | | $ | 27,481 | Allowance for credit losses at acquisition | | | (1,121) | Fair value of PCD loans at acquisition | | $ | 26,360 |

Management's opinion as to the ultimate collectability of loans is subject to estimates regarding future cash flows from operations and the value of property, real and personal, pledged as collateral. These estimates are affected by changing economic conditions and the economic prospects of borrowers.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that, in management's judgment, is adequate to cover probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when an amount is determined to be uncollectible, based on management's analysis of expected cash flow (for non-collateral dependent loans) or collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans). Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management's periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
The allowance consists of allocated and general components. The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For those loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan.
Under the Company's allowance methodology, loans are first segmented into 1) those comprising large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, including single-family mortgages and installment loans, which are collectively evaluated for impairment, and 2) all other loans which are individually evaluated. Those loans in the second category are further segmented utilizing a defined grading system which involves categorizing loans by severity of risk based on conditions that may affect the ability of the borrowers to repay their debt, such as current financial information, collateral valuations, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current trends. The loans subject to credit classification represent the portion of the portfolio subject to the greatest credit risk and where adjustments to the allowance for losses on loans as a result of provisions and charge offs are most likely to have a significant impact on operations.
A periodic review of selected credits (based on loan size and type) is conducted to identify loans with heightened risk or probable losses and to assign risk grades. The primary responsibility for this review rests with loan administration personnel. This review is supplemented with periodic examinations of both selected credits and the credit review process by the Company's internal audit function and applicable regulatory agencies. The information from these reviews assists management in the timely identification of problems and potential problems and provides a basis for deciding whether the credit represents a probable loss or risk that should be recognized.
The Company considers, as the primary quantitative factor in its allowance methodology, average net charge offs over the most recent twelve-month period. The Company also reviews average net charge offs over the most recent five-year period.
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the scheduled payments of principal or interest will not be able to be collected when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and agricultural loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Groups of loans with similar risk characteristics are collectively evaluated for impairment based on the group's historical loss experience adjusted for changes in trends, conditions and other relevant factors that affect repayment of the loans. Accordingly, individual consumer and residential loans are not separately identified for impairment measurements, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement due to financial difficulties of the borrower.
The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical charge-off experience and expected loss given the internal risk rating process. The loan portfolio is stratified into homogeneous groups of loans that possess similar loss characteristics and an appropriate loss ratio adjusted for other qualitative factors is applied to the homogeneous pools of loans to estimate the incurred losses in the loan portfolio.
Included in the Company's loan portfolio are certain loans accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. These loans were written down at acquisition to an amount estimated to be collectible. As a result, certain ratios regarding the Company's loan portfolio and credit quality cannot be used to compare the Company to peer companies or to compare the Company's current credit quality to prior periods. The ratios particularly affected by accounting under ASC 310-30 include the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans, nonaccrual loans, and nonperforming assets, and nonaccrual loans and nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans.

Credit Quality Indicators . The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on all loans at origination, and is updated on a quarterly basis for loans risk rated Watch, Special Mention, Substandard, or Doubtful. In addition, lending relationships of $1$3 million or more, exclusive of any consumer or owner-occupied residential loan, are subject to an annual credit analysis which is prepared by the loan administration department and presented to a loan committee with appropriate lending authority. A sample of lending relationships in excess of $2.5$1 million (exclusive of single-family residential real estate loans) are subject to an independent loan review annually, in order to verify risk ratings. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Watch – Loans classified as watch exhibit weaknesses that require more than usual monitoring. Issues may include deteriorating financial condition, payments made after due date but within 30 days, adverse industry conditions or management problems.
Special Mention – Loans classified as special mention exhibit signs of further deterioration but still generally make payments within 30 days. This is a transitional rating and loans should typically not be rated Special Mention for more than 12 months.
Substandard – Loans classified as substandard possess weaknesses that jeopardize the ultimate collection of the principal and interest outstanding. These loans may exhibit continued financial losses, ongoing delinquency, overall poor financial condition, and insufficient collateral. 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 of substandard loans, and have deteriorated to the level that there is a high probability of substantial loss.
Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be Pass rated loans. A periodic review of selected credits (based on loan size and type) is conducted to identify loans with heightened risk or probable losses and to assign risk grades. The primary responsibility for this review rests with loan administration personnel. This review is supplemented with periodic examinations of both selected credits and the credit review process by the Company’s internal audit function and applicable regulatory agencies. The information from these reviews assists management in the timely identification of problems and potential problems and provides a basis for deciding whether the credit continues to share similar risk characteristics with collectively evaluated loan pools, or whether credit losses for the loan should be evaluated on an individual loan basis. The following table presents the credit risk profile of the Company’s loan portfolio (excluding loans in process and deferred loan fees) based on rating category and year of origination as of June 30, 2023. This table includes PCD loans, which are reported according to risk categorization after acquisition based on the Company’s standards for such classification: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (dollars in thousands) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revolving | | | | June 30, | | 2023 | | 2022 | | 2021 | | 2020 | | 2019 | | Prior | | loans | | Total | Residential Real Estate | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass | | $ | 328,142 | | $ | 312,853 | | $ | 252,077 | | $ | 103,735 | | $ | 25,651 | | $ | 96,035 | | $ | 9,100 | | $ | 1,127,593 | Watch | | | 1,214 | | | 1,136 | | | 616 | | | 108 | | | 198 | | | 27 | | | 5 | | | 3,304 | Special Mention | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Substandard | | | 837 | | | 316 | | | 510 | | | — | | | — | | | 857 | | | — | | | 2,520 | Doubtful | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Total Residential Real Estate | | $ | 330,193 | | $ | 314,305 | | $ | 253,203 | | $ | 103,843 | | $ | 25,849 | | $ | 96,919 | | $ | 9,105 | | $ | 1,133,417 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Construction Real Estate | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass | | $ | 124,479 | | $ | 50,011 | | $ | 10,946 | | $ | 3,190 | | $ | — | | $ | — | | $ | 941 | | $ | 189,567 | Watch | | | 280 | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | 280 | Special Mention | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Substandard | | | 330 | | | 679 | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | 1,009 | Doubtful | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Total Construction Real Estate | | $ | 125,089 | | $ | 50,690 | | $ | 10,946 | | $ | 3,190 | | $ | — | | $ | — | | $ | 941 | | $ | 190,856 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commercial Real Estate | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass | | $ | 462,643 | | $ | 474,140 | | $ | 279,921 | | $ | 89,272 | | $ | 74,653 | | $ | 83,871 | | $ | 37,443 | | $ | 1,501,943 | Watch | | | 8,122 | | | 5,382 | | | 163 | | | 3,879 | | | — | | | 117 | | | — | | | 17,663 | Special Mention | | | 2,940 | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | 2,940 | Substandard | | | 7,690 | | | 26,465 | | | 2,425 | | | 288 | | | 473 | | | 1,735 | | | 757 | | | 39,833 | Doubtful | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Total Commercial Real Estate | | $ | 481,395 | | $ | 505,987 | | $ | 282,509 | | $ | 93,439 | | $ | 75,126 | | $ | 85,723 | | $ | 38,200 | | $ | 1,562,379 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Consumer | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass | | $ | 36,003 | | $ | 14,530 | | $ | 5,446 | | $ | 1,692 | | $ | 717 | | $ | 1,379 | | $ | 73,225 | | $ | 132,992 | Watch | | | 71 | | | — | | | 62 | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | 133 | Special Mention | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Substandard | | | 33 | | | 2 | | | 1 | | | — | | | — | | | 41 | | | 313 | | | 390 | Doubtful | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Total Consumer | | $ | 36,107 | | $ | 14,532 | | $ | 5,509 | | $ | 1,692 | | $ | 717 | | $ | 1,420 | | $ | 73,538 | | $ | 133,515 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commercial | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass | | $ | 138,500 | | $ | 83,011 | | $ | 71,054 | | $ | 10,723 | | $ | 6,239 | | $ | 10,657 | | $ | 272,710 | | $ | 592,894 | Watch | | | 698 | | | 211 | | | 91 | | | 3 | | | — | | | — | | | 2,549 | | | 3,552 | Special Mention | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Substandard | | | 860 | | | 329 | | | 128 | | | 184 | | | 175 | | | 574 | | | 334 | | | 2,584 | Doubtful | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Total Commercial | | $ | 140,058 | | $ | 83,551 | | $ | 71,273 | | $ | 10,910 | | $ | 6,414 | | $ | 11,231 | | $ | 275,593 | | $ | 599,030 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Total Loans | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass | | $ | 1,089,767 | | $ | 934,545 | | $ | 619,444 | | $ | 208,612 | | $ | 107,260 | | $ | 191,942 | | $ | 393,419 | | $ | 3,544,989 | Watch | | | 10,385 | | | 6,729 | | | 932 | | | 3,990 | | | 198 | | | 144 | | | 2,554 | | | 24,932 | Special Mention | | | 2,940 | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | 2,940 | Substandard | | | 9,750 | | | 27,791 | | | 3,064 | | | 472 | | | 648 | | | 3,207 | | | 1,404 | | | 46,336 | Doubtful | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | Total | | $ | 1,112,842 | | $ | 969,065 | | $ | 623,440 | | $ | 213,074 | | $ | 108,106 | | $ | 195,293 | | $ | 397,377 | | $ | 3,619,197 |

TDRs are troubled debt restructurings (TDRs), where economic concessions have been grantedevaluated to borrowers who have experienced financial difficulties.determine whether they share similar risk characteristics with collectively evaluated loan pools, or must be individually evaluated. These concessions typically result from our loss mitigation activities, and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions. In general, the Company’s loans that have been subject to classification as TDRs are the result of guidance under ASU No. 2011-02, which indicates that the Company may not consider the borrower’s effective borrowing rate on the old debt immediately before the restructuring in determining whether a concession has been granted. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructuring and typically are returned to performing status after considering the borrower'sborrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period of at least six months. During fiscal 2023, there were no loans modified as TDRs. During fiscal 2022, there were six loans modified as TDRs totaling $24.5 million. When loans and leases are modified into a TDR, the Company evaluates any possible impairment similar to other impaired loans based on the present value
Table of expected future cash flows, discounted at the contractual interest rate of the original loan or lease agreement, and uses the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs, for collateral dependent loans. If the Company determines that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (net of previous charge-offs, deferred loan fees or costs, and unamortized premium or discount), impairment is recognized through an allowance estimate or a charge-off to the allowance. In periods subsequent to modification, the Company evaluates all TDRs, including those that have payment defaults, for possible impairment and recognizes impairment through the allowance.Contents
At June 30, 2017, and June 30, 2016, the Company had $5.2 million and $4.1 million, respectively, of commercial real estate loans, $1.8 million and $479,000, respectively, of residential real estate loans, $3.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of commercial loans, and $0 and $36,000, respectively, of consumer loans that were modified in TDRs and impaired. AllPerforming loans classified as TDRs at June 30, 20172023 and June 30, 2016, were so classified due to interest rate concessions. During Fiscal 2017, four commercial loans totaling $2.6 million, four commercial real estate loans totaling $2.0 million, one residential real estate loans totaling $39,000, one construction real estate loan totaling $35,000, and three consumer loans totaling $1,000 were modified as TDRs and had payment defaults subsequent to the modification. When loans modified as TDRs have subsequent payment defaults, the defaults are factored into the determination of the allowance for loan losses to ensure specific valuation allowance reflect amounts considered uncollectible.
Performing loans classified as troubled debt restructurings at June 30, 2017 and June 30, 20162022 segregated by class, are shown in the table below. Nonperforming TDRs are shown asin nonaccrual loans.

NOTE 4: Accounting for Certain Acquired Loans The Company acquired loans in transfers during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011, June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2017. At acquisition, certain transferred loans evidenced deterioration of credit quality since origination and it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required payments would not be collected.
Loans purchased with evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable that all contractually required payments will not be collected are considered to be credit impaired. Evidence of credit quality deterioration as of the purchase date may include information such as past-due and nonaccrual status, borrower credit scores and recent loan to value percentages. Purchased credit-impaired loans are accounted for under the accounting guidance for loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality (ASC 310-30) and initially measured at fair value, which includes estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loan. Accordingly, an allowance for credit losses related to these loans is not carried over and recorded at the acquisition date. Management estimated the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition using our internal risk models, which incorporate the estimate of current key assumptions, such as default rates, severity and prepayment speeds.
The carrying amount of those loans is included in the balance sheet amounts of loans receivable at June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016. The amount of these loans is shown below:

Leases. The Company elected certain relief options under ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), including the option not to recognize right of use asset and lease liabilities that arise from short-term leases (leases with terms of twelve months or less). The Company has 11 leased properties, which includes banking facilities, administrative offices | | | June 30, | | | (dollars in thousands) | | 2017 | | | 2016 | | | Land | | $ | 12,043 | | | $ | 9,840 | | | Buildings and improvements | | | 44,256 | | | | 38,060 | | | Construction in progress | | | 125 | | | | 53 | | | Furniture, fixtures, equipment and software | | | 12,595 | | | | 13,602 | | | Automobiles | | | 81 | | | | 106 | | | | | | 69,100 | | | | 61,661 | | | Less accumulated depreciation | | | 14,933 | | | | 14,718 | | | | | $ | 54,167 | | | $ | 46,943 | |
and ground leases, and numerous office equipment lease agreements in which it is the lessee, with lease terms exceeding twelve months. The Company leases facilities it owns or portions of facilities it owns to other third parties. The Company has determined that all of these lease agreements, in terms of being the lessor, are classified as operating leases. For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, income recognized from these lessor agreements was $228,000 and $279,000, respectively. Income from lessor agreements was included in net occupancy and equipment expense. The operating leases are now included as a ROU asset in the premises and equipment line item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The corresponding lease liability is included in the accounts payable and other liabilities line item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. In the February 2022 Fortune merger, the Company assumed a ground lease with an entity that is controlled by a Company insider. This property is in St. Louis County, MO and is in its third year of a twenty year term. ASU 2016-02 also requires certain other accounting elections. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify, meaning those with terms under twelve months. ROU assets or lease liabilities are not to be recognized for short-term leases. The calculated amount of the ROU assets and lease liabilities in the table below 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, the ASU 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 over a similar term. The discount rate utilized was 5%. The expected lease terms range from 18 months to 20 years. | | | | | | | | | | | | At or for the Twelve Months Ended | | | | | | June 30, | | | | (dollars in thousands) | | 2023 | | 2022 | | | | Consolidated Balance Sheet | | | | | | | | | | Operating leases right of use asset | | $ | 6,125 | | $ | 3,849 | | | | Operating leases liability | | $ | 6,125 | | $ | 3,849 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Consolidated Statement of Income | | | | | | | | | | Operating lease costs classified as occupancy and equipment expense | | $ | 720 | | $ | 451 | | | | (includes short-term lease costs) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information | | | | | | | | | | Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: | | | | | | | | | | Operating cash flows from operating leases | | $ | 524 | | $ | 382 | | | | ROU assets obtained in exchange for operating lease obligations: | | $ | — | | $ | — | | | |

NOTE 13: Stockholders'11: Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Capital The Company and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory—mandatory – and possibly additional discretionary – actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company and the Bank'sBank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under U.S. GAAP, regulatory reporting requirements and regulatory capital standards. The Company and Bank'sBank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Furthermore, the Company and Bank'sBank’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Quantitative measures established by regulatory capital standards to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total capital, Tier 1 capital (as defined), and common equity Tier 1 capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average total assets (as defined). Additionally, to make distributions or discretionary bonus payments, the Company and Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets. Management believes, as of June 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
Effective January 1, 2020, depository institutions and depository institution holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria, including a tier 1 leverage ratio of greater than 9 percent, are considered qualifying community banking organizations and are eligible to opt into an alternative, simplified regulatory capital framework, which utilizes a newly-defined “Community Bank Leverage Ratio” (CBLR). The CBLR framework is an optional framework that is designed to reduce burden by removing the requirements for calculating and reporting risk-based capital ratios for qualifying community banking organizations that opt into the framework. Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to use the CBLR framework and that maintain a leverage ratio of greater than 9 percent are considered to have satisfied the risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ generally applicable capital rule. In July 2013,April 2020, the federal bank regulatory agencies announced the issuance of two interim final rules to provide temporary relief to community banking organizations. Under the rules, CBLR requirement was a minimum of 8.5% for calendar year 2021, and 9% thereafter. The Company and the Bank have not made an election to utilize the CBLR framework, but will continue to monitor the available option, and could do so in the future. In August 2020, the Federal banking agencies announced their approvaladopted a final rule updating a December 2018 rule regarding the impact on regulatory capital of adoption of the finalCECL standard. The rule now allows institutions that adopt the CECL standard in 2020 a five-year transition period to implementrecognize the Basel IIIestimated impact of adoption on regulatory reforms, among other changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.capital. The approved rule included a new minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital of 4.5%, raised the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.0% to 6.0%, and included a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0% for all banking institutions. Additionally, the rule created a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, and prohibited banking organizations from making distributions or discretionary bonus payments during any quarter if its eligible retained income is negative, if the capital conservation buffer is not maintained. This new capital conservation buffer requirement is be phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increasing each year until fully implemented in January 2019. The enhanced capital requirements for banking organizations such as the Company and the Bank began January 1, 2015. Other changes included revised risk-weightingelected to exercise the option to recognize the impact of some assets, stricter limitations on mortgage servicing assets and deferred tax assets, and replacement ofadoption over the ratings-based approach to risk weight securities.
five-year period.As of June 30, 2017,2023, the most recent notification from the Federal banking agencies categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, common equity Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank'sBank’s category.
The tables below summarize the Company and Bank'sBank’s actual and required regulatory capital:

NOTE 14:12: Commitments and Credit Risk
ContingenciesStandby Letters of Credit . In the normal course of business, the Company issues various financial standby, performance standby, and commercial letters of credit for its customers. As consideration for the letters of credit, the institution charges letter of credit fees based on the face amount of the letters and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. These letters of credit are stand-alonestandalone agreements, and are unrelated to any obligation the depositor has to the Company. Standby letters of credit are irrevocable conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Financial standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing and similar transactions. Performance standby letters of credit are issued to guarantee performance of certain customers under non-financial contractual obligations. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.
The Company had total outstanding standby letters of credit amounting to $3.6$7.1 million at June 30, 2017,2023, and $3.5$3.7 million at June 30, 2016,2022, with terms ranging from 12 to 24 months. At June 30, 2017,2023, the Company'sCompany’s deferred revenue under standby letters of credit agreements was nominal.
Off-balance-sheet and Credit Risk . The Company'sCompany’s Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect various financial instruments to extend credit to meet the financing needs of its customers.
These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. Lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates. Since a portion of the line may expire without being drawn upon, the total unused lines do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer'scustomer’s creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management'smanagement’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate. Management uses the same credit policies in granting lines of credit as it does for on balance sheet instruments.
The Company had $251.9$912.0 million in commitments to extend credit at June 30, 2017,2023, and $163.8$707.7 million at June 30, 2016.
2022.At June 30, 2017,2023, total commitments to originate fixed-rate loans with terms in excess of one year were $29.6$213.3 million at rates ranging from 3.25%3.95% to 8.00%11.0%, with a weighted-average rate of 4.59%6.07%. Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include exposure to some credit loss in the event of nonperformance of the customer. The Company'sCompany’s policies for credit commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extension of credit that are recorded in the balance sheet. The commitments extend over varying periods of time with the majority being disbursed within a thirty-day period.
The Company originates collateralized commercial, real estate, and consumer loans to customers in Missouri, Arkansas, and Arkansas.Illinois. Although the Company has a diversified portfolio, loans aggregating $464.8 million$1.5 billion at June 30, 2017,2023, are secured by single and multi-family residential real estate generally located in the Company'sCompany’s primary lending area. Legal proceedings. Periodically, there have been various claims and lawsuits involving the Company or the Bank, mainly as defendants, such as claims to enforce liens, condemnation proceedings on properties in which the Company or the Bank holds security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans and other activities incident to the Company’s or the Bank’s business.

NOTE 17:15: Fair Value Measurements ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in active markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities
Recurring Measurements .

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the year ended June 30, 2017.
2023.Available-for-sale Securities . When quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated using pricing models, or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. For these securities, our Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond'sbond’s terms and conditions, among other things. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
During fiscal 2011, a pooled trust preferred security was reclassified from Level 2 to Level 3 due to the unavailability of third-party vendor valuations determined by observable inputs – either quoted prices for similar assets; quoted prices in active markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full terms of the assets. During fiscal 2016, the third-party vendor began providing valuations for this pooled trust preferred security again, so it was reclassified from Level 3 back to Level 2. The following table presents a reconciliation of activity for available for sale securities measured at fair value based on significant unobservable (Level 3) information for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:

The following is a description of valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarch. For assets classified within Level 3 of fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value process is described below.
Impaired Loans (Collateral Dependent). A collateral dependent loan is considered to be impaired when it is probable that all of the principal and interest due may not be collected according to its contractual terms. Generally, when a collateral dependent loan is considered impaired, the amount of reserve required is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. The Company makes such measurements on all material collateral dependent loans deemed impaired using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans. The fair value of collateral used by the Company is determined by obtaining an observable market price or by obtaining an appraised value from an independent, licensed or certified appraiser, using observable market data. This data includes information such as selling price of similar properties and capitalization rates of similar properties sold within the market, expected future cash flows or earnings of the subject property based on current market expectations, and other relevant factors. In addition, management applies selling and other discounts to the underlying collateral value to determine the fair value. If an appraised value is not available, the fair value of the collateral dependent impaired loan is determined by an adjusted appraised value including unobservable cash flows.
On a quarterly basis, loans classified as special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss are evaluated including the loan officer's review of the collateral and its current condition, the Company's knowledge of the current economic environment in the market where the collateral is located, and the Company's recent experience with real estate in the area. The date of the appraisal is also considered in conjunction with the economic environment and any decline in the real estate market since the appraisal was obtained. For all loan types, updated appraisals are obtained if considered necessary. In instances where the economic environment has worsened and/or the real estate market declined since the last appraisal, a higher distressed sale discount would be applied to the appraised value.
The Company records collateral dependent impaired loans based on nonrecurring Level 3 inputs. If a collateral dependent loan's fair value, as estimated by the Company, is less than its carrying value, the Company either records a charge-off of the portion of the loan that exceeds the fair value or establishes a specific reserve as part of the allowance for loan losses.
Foreclosed and Repossessed Assets Held for Sale . Foreclosed and repossessed assets held for sale are valued at the time the loan is foreclosed upon or collateral is repossessed and the asset is transferred to foreclosed or repossessed assets held for sale. The value of the asset is based on third party or internal appraisals, less estimated costs to sell and appropriate discounts, if any. The appraisals are generally discounted based on current and expected market conditions that may impact the sale or value of the asset and management'smanagement’s knowledge and experience with similar assets. Such discounts typically may be significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value of these assets. Foreclosed and repossessed assets held for sale are continually evaluated for additional impairment and are adjusted accordingly if impairment is identified.
Unobservable (Level 3) Inputs . The following table presents quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in recurring and nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements.measurements at June 30, 2023.

The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair values of financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents, interest-bearing time deposits, accrued interest receivable, and accrued interest payable are valued at their carrying amounts, which approximates book value. Stock in FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis is valued at cost, which approximates fair value. Fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations. The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values.
The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Non-maturity deposits and securities sold under agreements are valued at their carrying value, which approximates fair value. Fair value of advances from the FHLB is estimated by discounting maturities using an estimate of the current market for similar instruments. The fair value of subordinated debt is estimated using rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of commitments to originate loans is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and committed rates. The fair value of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial DisclosureItem 9A. Controls and ProceduresAn evaluation of the Company'sCompany’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of June 30, 2017,2023, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Administrative Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, and several other members of our senior management. Our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Administrative Officer, and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 20172022, in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to our management (including theour Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Administrative Officer and our Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC'sSEC’s rules and forms. We intend to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of the Company'sCompany’s disclosure controls and procedures and to improve the Company'sCompany’s controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that we may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning the Company'sCompany’s business. While we believe the present design of the disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve its goal, future events affecting its business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the year ended June 30, 2017,2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Management'sManagement’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting The management of Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company'sCompany’s management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company'sCompany’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2017.2023. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (1992)(2013). As permitted by SEC guidance, management excluded from its assessment, the operations of the Citizens Bancshares Co. merger completed during fiscal year 2023, which is described in Note 14: Business Combinations, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included as Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The assets acquired in the Citizens Bancshares Co. merger represented approximately 23% of the Company’s consolidated assets as of June 30, 2023. Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of June 30, 2017,2023, the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria. | | | | Date: September 13, 20172023 | By: | | /s/ Greg A.
