The Company’s principal source of revenue is interest income from loans and investment securities. The Company also earns noninterest income from various banking and financial services offered primarily through Farmers & Merchants State Bank. Interest income is primarily recognized on an accrual basis according to nondiscretionary formulas written in contracts, such as loan agreements or investment security contracts. The Company also earns noninterest income from various banking and financial services provided to business and consumer clients such as deposit account, debit card, and mortgage banking services. Revenue is recorded for noninterest income based on the contractual terms for the service or transaction performed.

NOTE 2 BUSINESS COMBINATION AND ASSET PURCHASE

On October 1, 2022, the Company acquired Peoples-Sidney Financial Corporation (PPSF), the bank holding company for Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Association, a community bank with three full-service offices in Sidney, Anna and Jackson Center, Ohio, in addition to a separate drive-thru location in Sidney, Ohio. PPSF shareholders had the opportunity to elect to receive either 0.6597 shares of FMAO stock or $24.00 per share in cash for each PPSF share owned, subject to a requirement under the Merger Agreement that the minimum number of PPSF shares exchanged for Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. (FMAO) shares in the merger was no less than 758,566. Fractional shares of FMAO common stock were not issued in respect of fractional interests arising from the merger but were paid in cash pursuant to the merger agreement. PPSF had 1,167,025 shares outstanding on October 1, 2022. The share price of FMAO stock on October 1, 2022 was $26.87. Total consideration for the acquisition was approximately $23.2 million of which $9.8 million was in cash and $13.4 million in stock. As a result of the acquisition, the Company increased its deposit base in Sidney and the greater Shelby County and reduced transaction costs. The Company also expects to continue to reduce costs through economies of scale.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase was allocated to net tangible and intangible assets based on their current estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. Of the total purchase price of $23.2 million, $6.0 million has been allocated to core deposit intangible included in other assets and is being amortized over seven years on a straight line basis. Goodwill of $5.9 million, resulting from the acquisition consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Association. Of that total amount, none of the purchase price is deductible for tax purposes. The following table summarizes the consideration paid for Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Association and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recognized at the acquisition date.

The Company acquired loans in the acquisition that had evidence of 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 was probable that all contractually required payments would not be collected were considered to be credit impaired. Evidence of credit quality deterioration as of the purchase date included information such as past-due and nonaccrual status, borrower credit scores and recent loan to value percentages. Purchased credit-impaired loans were 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 included estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loan. Accordingly, an allowance for credit losses related to these loans was 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 incorporated the estimate of current key assumptions, such as default rates, severity and prepayment speeds.

On January 1, 2019, the Company acquired Limberlost Bancshares, Inc. (“Limberlost”), the bank holding company for Bank of Geneva, a community bank based in Geneva, Indiana. Bank of Geneva operated six full-service offices in the northeast Indiana communities of Geneva, Berne, Decatur, Monroe, Portland and Monroeville.

The share price of Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. (FMAO) stock on January 1, 2019 was $38.49. Total

ITEM 1 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

consideration for the acquisition was approximately $78.9 million consisting of $8.5 million in cash and $70.4 million in stock. As a result of the acquisition, the Company has had an opportunity to increase its deposit base and reduce transaction costs. The Company has also reduced costs through economies of scale.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase was allocated to net tangible and intangible assets based on their current estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. Of the total purchase price of $78.9 million, $3.9 million has been allocated to core deposit intangible included in other assets and is being amortized over seven years on a straight line basis. Goodwill of $43.3 million resulting from the acquisition consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and Bank of Geneva. Of that total amount, none of the purchase price is deductible for tax purposes.

Changes in accretable yield, or income expected to be collected, ~~for the three and nine months ended~~ are as follows:

Investment securities will at times depreciate to an unrealized loss position. The Company utilizes the following criteria to assess whether ~~impairment is other than temporary.~~the unrealized loss requires an allowance for credit losses on investment securities. No one item by itself will necessarily signal that ~~a security~~an allowance for credit losses on investment securities should be ~~recognized as an other than temporary impairment.~~established.

The fair value of the security has significantly declined from book value.

A downgrade has occurred that lowered the credit rating to below investment grade (below Baa3 by Moody and BBB – by Standard and Poors.)

Dividends have been reduced or eliminated or scheduled interest payments have not been made.

~~The underwater security has longer than~~ 10 ~~years to maturity and the loss position had existed for more than~~ 3 ~~years.~~

Management does not possess both the intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

If the ~~impairment~~unrealized loss is ~~judged~~determined to be ~~other~~the result of a credit loss, the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is compared to the amortized cost basis. If the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is less than ~~temporary,~~ the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Adjustments to the allowance are recorded in the consolidated income statement as a component of the ~~individual security shall be written down to fair value, thereby establishing a new cost basis. The new cost basis shall not be changed~~provision for subsequent recoveries in fair value. The amount of the write down shall be included in current earnings as a realized loss.

The Company recognized $74 thousand and $127 thousand of interest income on nonaccrual loans for the three and six months ending June 30, 2023.

Following are the characteristics and underwriting criteria for each major type of loan the Bank offers:

Consumer Real Estate: Purchase, refinance, or equity financing of one to four family owner occupied dwelling. Success in repayment is subject to borrower’s income, debt level, character in fulfilling payment obligations, employment, and others.

Agricultural Real Estate: Purchase of farm real estate or for permanent improvements to the farm real estate. Cash flow from the farm operation is the repayment source and is therefore subject to the financial success of the farm operation.

Agricultural: Loans for the production and housing of crops, fruits, vegetables, and livestock or to fund the purchase or re-finance of capital assets such as machinery and equipment and livestock. The production of crops and livestock is especially vulnerable to commodity prices and weather. The vulnerability to commodity prices is offset by the farmer’s ability to hedge their position by the use of various pricing mechanisms. The risk related to weather is often mitigated by crop insurance.

Commercial Real Estate: Construction, purchase, and refinance of business purpose real estate. Risks include potential construction delays and overruns, vacancies, collateral value subject to market value fluctuations, interest rate, market demands, borrower’s ability to repay in orderly fashion, and others. The Bank does employ stress testing on higher balance loans to mitigate risk by ensuring the customer’s ability to repay in a changing rate environment before granting loan approval.

Commercial and Industrial: Loans to proprietorships, partnerships, limited liability companies or corporations to provide temporary working capital and seasonal loans as well as long term loans for capital asset acquisition. Risks include adequacy of cash flow, reasonableness of projections, financial leverage, economic trends, management ability and estimated capital expenditures during the fiscal year. The Bank does employ stress testing on higher balance loans to mitigate risk by ensuring the customer's ability to repay in a changing rate environment before granting loan approval. ~~Included in commercial loans for September 2022 and December 2021 were Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, administered by the Small Business Administration (SBA), in the amounts of $~~7 ~~thousand and $2.9~~ million, respectively. The PPP provided loans to eligible businesses through financial institutions like the Bank, with loans being eligible for forgiveness of some or all of the principal amount by the SBA if the borrower meets certain requirements. The SBA guarantees repayment of the loans to the Bank if the borrower’s loan is not forgiven and is then not repaid by the customer. Therefore, there is no ~~allowance for loan losses related to these loans.~~

ITEM 1 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Consumer: Funding for individual and family purposes. Success in repayment is subject to borrower’s income, debt level, character in fulfilling payment obligations, employment, and others.

Other: Primarily funds public improvements in the Bank’s service area. Repayment ability is based on the continuance of the taxation revenue as the source of repayment.

The Bank uses a nine tier risk rating system to grade its loans. The grade of a loan may change during the life of the loan.

The risk ratings are described as follows.

Zero (0) Unclassified. Any loan which has not been assigned a classification.

One (1) Excellent. Credit to premier customers having the highest credit rating based on an extremely strong financial condition, which compares favorably with industry standards (upper quartile of RMA ratios). Financial statements indicate a sound earnings and financial ratio trend for several years with satisfactory profit margins and excellent liquidity exhibited. Prime credits may also be borrowers with loans fully secured by highly liquid collateral such as traded stocks, bonds, certificates of deposit, savings account, etc. No credit or collateral exceptions exist, and the loan adheres to The Bank's loan policy in every respect. Financing alternatives would be readily available and would qualify for unsecured credit. This rate is summarized by high liquidity, minimum risk, strong ratios, and low handling costs.

Two (2) Good. Desirable loans of somewhat less stature than rate 1, but with strong financial statements. Loan supported by financial statements containing strong balance sheets and a history of profitability. Probability of serious financial deterioration is unlikely. Possessing a sound repayment source (and a secondary source), which would allow repayment in a reasonable period of time. Individual loans backed by liquid personal assets, established history and unquestionable character.

Three (3) Satisfactory. Satisfactory loans of average or slightly above average risk – having some deficiency or vulnerability to changing economic conditions, but still fully collectible. Projects should normally demonstrate acceptable debt service coverage. There may be some weakness but with offsetting features of other support readily available. Loans that are meeting the terms of repayment.

Loans may be rated 3 when there is no recent information on which to base a current risk evaluation and the following conditions apply:

At inception, the loan was properly underwritten and did not possess an unwarranted level of credit risk;

At inception, the loan was secured with collateral possessing a loan-to-value adequate to protect The Bank from loss;

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

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

Four (4) Satisfactory / Monitored. A “4” (Satisfactory/Monitored) risk rating may be established for a loan considered satisfactory but which is of average credit risk due to financial weakness or uncertainty. The loans warrant a higher than average level of monitoring to ensure that weaknesses do not advance. The level of risk in Satisfactory/Monitored classification is considered acceptable and within normal underwriting guidelines, so long as the loan is given management supervision.

Five (5) Special Mention. Loans that possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness which deserve close attention, but which do not yet warrant substandard classification. Such loans pose unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the loan and increase risk in the future. The key distinctions of a 5 (Special Mention) classification are that (1) it is indicative of an unwarranted level of risk, and (2) weaknesses are considered “potential” versus “defined” impairments to the primary source of loan repayment and collateral.

ITEM 1 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Six (6) Substandard. One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified substandard:

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

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

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

Loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that The Bank will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.

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

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

The lender is forced into a subordinate position or unsecured collateral position due to flaws in documentation.

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

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

There is significant deterioration in the market conditions and the borrower is highly vulnerable to these conditions.

Seven (7) Doubtful. One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified Doubtful:

Loans have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard. Additionally, however, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full based on existing conditions improbable.

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

The possibility of loss is high, but, because of certain important pending factors which may strengthen the loan, loss classification is deferred until its exact status is known. A Doubtful classification is established deferring the realization of the loss.

Eight (8) Loss. Loans are considered uncollectable and of such little value that continuing to carry them as assets on the institution’s financial statements is not feasible. Loans will be classified Loss when it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off or reserving all or a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

~~There were~~ no ~~additional funds available to be advanced in connection with impaired loans as of September 30, 2022.~~

The Bank had approximately $~~4.0~~3.6 million of its impaired loans classified as troubled debt restructured (TDR) as of ~~September 30,~~December 31, 2022 and $~~7.6~~2.7 million as of ~~December 31, 2021 and $6.0~~ ~~million as of September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

Under ASC 310-40, TDRs were eliminated from being classified as such for 2023 and will no longer be reported as such. Modification programs focus on payment pattern changes and/or modified maturity dates with most receiving a combination of the two concessions. The modifications did not result in the contractual forgiveness of principal. During the ~~third quarter of 2022,~~ ~~three~~ ~~new loans were considered TDR as a result of the continuance of interest only payment modifications. These~~ three loans stem from a single relationship with a borrower. This relationship has a Small Business Administration (SBA) guaranty and consequently the request for the continuance of the interest only period was also approved by the SBA as were previous requests. During the third quarter of 2021,months ended June 30, 2023 one new loan was considered ~~TDR as~~ a ~~result~~modification to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty. During the second quarter of ~~being in a deficiency balance upon the sale of property. The loan is set for a~~ 3 ~~year term and~~ 10 ~~year amortization. The ALLL included $1.0~~ ~~million for the specific allocation on the principal balance of this loan. Year to date 2021,~~2022, there were ~~two~~no new loans considered ~~TDR with~~ ~~two~~ ~~previously reported TDR loans paid off in June 2021.~~TDR.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2021, there was~~ ~~one~~ ~~impaired commercial real estate loan of $~~86 ~~thousand and~~ ~~one~~ ~~impaired commercial loan of $480~~ ~~thousand that were classified as TDR paid off as well as~~ ~~three~~ ~~impaired commercial loans of $809~~ ~~thousand that were classified as TDR charged off.~~

For the majority of the Bank’s impaired loans, the Bank ~~will apply~~applied the fair value of collateral or ~~use~~used a measurement incorporating the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective rate of interest. To determine fair value of collateral, collateral asset values securing an impaired loan ~~are~~were periodically evaluated. Maximum time of re-evaluation iswas every 12 months for chattels and titled vehicles and every two years for real estate. In this process, third party evaluations ~~are~~were obtained. Until such time that updated appraisals ~~are~~were received, the Bank may ~~discount~~have discounted the collateral value used.

The Bank ~~uses~~used the following guidelines as stated in policy to determine when to realize a charge-off, whether a partial or full loan balance. A charge-off in whole or in part iswas realized when unsecured consumer loans, credit card credits and overdraft lines of credit ~~reach~~reached 90 days delinquency. At 90 days delinquent, secured consumer loans ~~are~~were charged down to the value of the collateral, if repossession of the collateral iswas assured and/or in the process of repossession. Consumer mortgage loan deficiencies ~~are~~were charged down upon the sale of the collateral or sooner upon the recognition of collateral deficiency. A broker’s price opinion or appraisal ~~will be~~was completed on all home loans in litigation and any deficiency ~~will be~~was charged off before reaching 150 days delinquent. Commercial and agricultural credits ~~are~~were charged down/allocated at 120 days delinquency, unless an established and approved work-out plan iswas in place or litigation of the credit ~~will~~was likely to result in recovery of the loan balance. Upon notification of bankruptcy, unsecured debt iswas charged off. Additional charge-off ~~may be~~was realized as further unsecured positions ~~are~~were recognized.

The following tables present loans individually evaluated for impairment by class of loans for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2022 ~~and September 30, 2021~~ and for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

The Company segregates its ~~ALLL~~allowance into two reserves: The ~~ALLL~~Allowance for Credit Losses (ACL) and the Allowance for Unfunded Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit (AULC). When combined, these reserves constitute the total ~~Allowance for~~Current Expected Credit Losses ~~(ACL)~~(CECL).

The ~~ALLL~~allowance does not include an accretable yield of $5.8 and $~~7.1~~6.3 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively, nor a nonaccretable yield of $~~151~~ ~~and $510~~138 thousand as of ~~September 30, 2022 and~~ December 31, ~~2021, respectively,~~2022, related to the acquisitions of Bank of Geneva in 2019 and Ossian State Bank and Perpetual Federal Savings Bank in 2021 and Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Bank in 2022 as previously discussed in Note 2.

The AULC is reported within other liabilities while the ~~ALLL~~ACL portion associated with loans is netted within the loans, net asset line on the Company’s ~~consolidated balance sheet. The ACL presented above represents the full amount of reserves available to absorb possible credit losses.~~Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 6 FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair values of financial instruments are management's estimate of the values at which the instruments could be exchanged in a transaction between willing parties. These estimates are subjective and may vary significantly from amounts that would be realized in actual transactions. In addition, other significant assets are not considered financial assets including deferred tax assets, premises, equipment and intangibles. Further, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on the fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of the estimates.

Fair Value Measurements:

In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

Available-for-sale securities, when quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are valued using the quoted price and are classified as Level 1.

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Available-for-sale securities classified as Level 2 are valued using the prices obtained from an independent pricing service. The prices are not adjusted. Securities of obligations of state and political subdivisions are valued using a type of matrix, or grid, pricing in which securities are benchmarked against the treasury rate based on credit rating. Substantially all assumptions used by the independent pricing service are observable in the marketplace, can be derived from observable data, or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability. The Bank holds some local municipals that the Bank evaluates based on the credit strength of the underlying project. The fair value is determined by valuing similar credit payment streams at similar rates.

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company's assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset.

The following summarizes financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, segregated by level or the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

Most of the Company's available-for-sale securities, including any bonds issued by local municipalities, have CUSIP numbers or have similar characteristics of those in the municipal markets, making them marketable and comparable as Level 2.

The Company also has assets that, under certain conditions, are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, such assets consist primarily of collateral dependent ~~impaired~~ loans. Collateral dependent ~~impaired~~ loans categorized as Level 3 assets consist of non-homogeneous loans that ~~are considered impaired.~~have expected credit losses. The Company estimates the fair value of the loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows using management's best estimate of key assumptions. These assumptions include future payment ability, timing of payment streams, and estimated realizable values of available collateral (typically based on outside appraisals.)

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, fair value of collateral dependent ~~impaired~~ loans categorized as Level 3 was $~~2.5~~45 ~~million~~thousand and $~~8.5~~2.7 million, respectively. ~~The specific allocation for impaired loans was $2.4~~ ~~million and $2.2~~ ~~million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which are accounted for in the allowance for loan losses (see Note 4).~~

During ~~2021,~~2023, impairment was recognized on ~~mortgage~~real estate servicing rights based upon the independent third ~~party’s~~party's quarterly ~~valuations.~~valuation. A valuation allowance was established by strata to quantify the likely impairment of the value of the ~~mortgage~~real estate servicing rights to the Company. If the carrying amount of an individual strata exceeds the fair value, impairment was recorded on that strata so the servicing asset was carried at fair value. Impairment was $12 thousand at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022 and $~~2023. There was ~~414~~no ~~thousand~~impairment at December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

ITEM 1 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Other real estate is reported at either the lower of the fair value of the real estate minus the estimated costs to sell the asset or the cost of the asset. The determination of fair value of the real estate relies primarily on appraisals from third parties. If the fair value of the real estate, minus the estimated costs to sell the asset, is less than the asset's cost, the deficiency is recognized as a valuation allowance against the asset through a charge to expense. The valuation allowance is therefore increased or decreased, through charges or credits to expense, for changes in the asset's fair value or estimated selling costs.

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

The Company continues to ~~increase~~prudently monitor its loan ~~production at an extremely strong pace, surpassing the previous quarters’ growth.~~growth to best serve its customers. Year over year, the growth has been ~~44.1%~~23.6% (excluding PPP balances) of which organic growth accounted for ~~21.3%~~18.5% (excluding PPP and acquisitions). In terms of dollars, the largest increase was in commercial real estate, ~~$334.8~~$301.7 million, or 30.5%, year over year. In terms of ~~percentages, 105.5% or $202.5 million, was~~percentage, the largest increase ~~and~~ was in consumer real estate. The increase in consumer real estate has been driven by acquisition balances of $193.0 million. With the organic loan growth has also come the need to fund the Allowance for Loan Losses. This expense has also increased and is $800 thousand higher than the same period lastat 59.4% or $32.9 million year ~~and totaling nearly $3.8 million so far year-to-date in 2022.~~over year.

F&M Commercial Banking Division entered ~~2022 Q3~~2023 with a strong loan pipeline ~~and~~but demand ~~was still active~~has softened throughout F&M’s footprint. Client results from ~~2021~~2022 and YTD performance were ~~good,~~good; however, ~~in Q3~~ client concerns ~~remained~~remain about availability of workforce, interruptions and delays in the supply chain and energy prices. Rising interest rates have ~~not~~ slowed ~~commercial activity dramatically~~loan demand in ~~Q3.~~some sectors. Credit quality of the portfolio remains good. ~~Past dues and delinquencies remained low at the end of Q3. Q3 fee income remained solid and kept pace with Q1 and Q2 of 2022.~~

F&M Agricultural Banking Division also experienced double digit growth as comparing ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023 to ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021. The growing conditions throughout our market area have been favorable with average to above average yields anticipated.~~2022. Commodity prices have remained high and at profitable levels. The overall outlook for grain, livestock and ~~Agri-businesses~~agri-businesses is optimistic for ~~2022~~2023 as our Agagricultural base appears positioned to make positive financial strides. Land values have continued to remain strong. ~~Focus will begin to shift to 2023 and the direction of commodity prices and input cost.~~ The agriculture portfolio remains healthy ~~and concerns are manageable. Harvesting is well under way for fall 2022.~~with a positive future outlook.

~~Where~~ F&M has seen a slow-down in production is in the 1-4 ~~Family Consumer Real Estate Division.~~family consumer real estate portfolio. Refinances have slowed significantly with the increase in rates. ~~Growth remains in new purchase and in home equity origination.~~For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Bank originated $12.1 million 1-4 family loans for sale compared to $26.7 million for the prior comparable period. This impact correlates to the lower gain on sale of assets, nearly ~~$1.0 million~~$686 thousand lower than last year as of the same time period year-to-date ~~September~~June 30th.

The increased loan growth along with rate increases has positively impacted the ~~net~~ interest earnings. ~~Net interest~~Interest income was ~~$719 thousand higher than last quarter and $14.8~~$10.6 million higher year over year. Funding of the loan growth has ~~also~~ resulted in increased borrowings. Increased rates have driven both deposit rates and borrowing rates significantly higher. Net ~~Interest Margin~~interest margin decreased 543 basis points in comparing the ~~quarters~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, to ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021, while the year-to-date margin reported a 1 basis point improvement when comparing 2022 to 2021.~~2022. The largest areas impacted by the increased rates is in the public fund offerings, higher net worth individuals and borrowing opportunities. The increases are beginning to show in the consumer deposits as the Bank offers special promotions ~~in both celebration of the 125th Anniversary and~~ to raise additional deposits to fund loan growth. The Company remains comfortable with its ability to raise funds as the Bank’s loan to deposit ratio ~~remains within target at~~is approximately ~~93%~~100.9%. Further discussion of the balance sheet composition movements and the impact on the earnings can be viewed in the Material Results of Operations section that follows.

~~Overall, net income increased 60.2% for~~F&M is halfway through the first year of its new three ~~quarters~~year strategic plan to be positioned to be a $4 - $5 billion dollar bank. As F&M positions itself for moderate growth, there will be continued emphasis on the investment in back office staff. Core and loan software systems are also being reviewed as part of ~~2022 as compared to~~ the ~~same time period 2021. Return on Assets improved to 1.25% as compared to 1.01%~~strategic plan. Three new offices were opened in the second quarter and ~~Return on Equity improved to 11.72% compared to 8.40% for the same time periods. As might be expected with the previous improvements, year to date earnings per share~~two more are ~~$1.94 compared to $1.41. The Company did incur acquisition expenses~~anticipated in the third ~~quarter 2022 though the amount was lower than that of the total acquisition expenses incurred as of September 30, 2021.~~

~~The Company plans~~quarter. This planned growth will continue to follow its strategic growth plans, so on June 14th, Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc., entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Peoples-Sidney Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“PPSF”), which provides for the merger of PPSF with and into F&M and the merger of PPSF’s wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Association (“Peoples Bank”), with and into F&M’s wholly-owned banking subsidiary, The Farmers & Merchants State Bank (“F&M Bank”). All the outstanding shares of PPSF’s common stock will be converted into the rightcontribute to ~~receive the cash or stock consideration as described~~increased noninterest expense in and subject to, the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement. The closing of the merger was October 1, 2022, with system conversion slated for December 3-5th. Refer to Note 9 Subsequent Event for additional detail on the merger.future periods.

As mentioned previously in our comments regarding our commercial customers, F&M too is experiencing pressure for staffing – both in the cost of recruiting new talent and in retaining existing. Salary expenses were ~~$113 thousand~~$1.2 million higher in ~~third quarter 2022 than in second quarter 2022 and~~first half 2023 year over year ~~in total year-to-date September 30th were $2.0 million higher for 2022~~ as compared with ~~2021. Even with that,~~2022. Pension plan expense increased $354 thousand and payroll taxes increased $196 thousand as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. As mentioned earlier, F&M has continued to invest in its back office staffing as part of its strategic plan. The opening of three new offices in the second quarter of 2023 has also contributed to staffing costs. At June 30, 2023, the Bank had 460 full time equivalent employees compared to 431 at December 31, 2022 and 390 at June 30, 2022. The operating efficiency ratio ~~remains in the low 50%’s~~has increased as ~~it has for all~~part of ~~2022.~~our investment into our strategic vision.

Year to date earnings per share are $0.92 compared to $1.25.

The Company remains well capitalized as it operates in a volatile rate environment and the size and footprint of its operations continues to grow. We continue to work towards our long-term objectives while we report and recognize many of the one-time costs incurred along the way. Asset quality remains ~~strong with past due loans over 30 days below 40 basis points.~~strong. Our historical prudent approach to lending remains the foundation of our operations. We continue to embrace the opportunities presented and remain diligent to accomplishing our mission. ~~We look forward to sharing the basis of our strategic plan for the coming years in the next quarter.~~

Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a financial holding company incorporated under the laws of Ohio in 1985. Our subsidiaries are The Farmers & Merchants State Bank (the “Bank”), a local independent community bank that has been primarily serving Northwest Ohio and Northeast Indiana since 1897, and Farmers & Merchants Risk Management, Inc., a captive insurance company formed in December 2014 and located in Nevada. We report our financial condition and net income on a consolidated basis and we have only one segment.

Our executive offices are located at 307 North Defiance Street, Archbold, Ohio 43502, and our telephone number is (419) 446-2501. The Bank operates ~~thirty~~thirty-five full-service banking offices throughout Northwest Ohio and Northeast Indiana and a drive-up facility in Archbold. These include a new office in downtown Toledo and in Oxford, Ohio which formerly was a successful LPO for the Bank. The Bank also operates ~~four~~three Loan Production Offices (LPOs), ~~two~~one each in Ohio, ~~and one in~~ Indiana and Michigan.

The Farmers & Merchants State Bank engages in general commercial banking and savings business including commercial, agricultural and residential mortgage, consumer and credit card lending activities. The largest segment of the lending business relates to commercial, both real estate and non-real estate. The type of commercial business ranges from small business to multi-million dollar companies. The loans are a reflection of business located within the Banks’ market ~~area.~~area of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan. Because the Bank's offices are primarily located in Northwest Ohio and Northeast Indiana, a substantial amount of the loan portfolio is comprised of loans made to customers in the farming industry for such items as ~~farm land,~~farmland, farm equipment and operating loans for seed, fertilizer, and feed. Other types of lending activities include loans for home improvements, and loans for the purchase of autos, trucks, recreational vehicles, motorcycles, and other consumer goods.

The Bank also provides checking account services, as well as savings and time deposit services such as certificates of deposits. In addition, Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) or Interactive Teller Machines (ITMs) are provided at most branch locations along with other independent locations in the market area. ITMs operate as an ATM with the addition of remote teller access to assist the user. The Bank has custodial services for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). The Bank provides on-line banking access for consumer and business customers. For consumers, this includes bill-pay, on-line statement opportunities and mobile banking. For business customers, it provides the option of electronic transaction origination such as wire and Automated Clearing House (ACH) file transmittal. In addition, the Bank offers remote deposit capture or electronic deposit processing and merchant credit card services. Mobile banking was added in 2012 and has been widely accepted and used by consumers. Upgrades to our digital products and services continue to occur in both retail and business lines. The Bank continues to offer new suites of products as customer preferences change and the Bank adapts and adopts new technologies. The Bank continues to offer products that also meet the needs of our more traditional customers.

The Bank has established underwriting policies and procedures which facilitate operating in a safe and sound manner in accordance with supervisory and regulatory guidance. Within this sphere of safety and soundness, the Bank's practice has been to not promote innovative, unproven credit products which may not be in the best interest of the Bank or its customers. The Bank does offer a hybrid mortgage loan. Hybrid loans are loans that start out as a fixed rate mortgage but after a set number of years automatically adjust to an adjustable rate mortgage. The Bank offers a three year, a five year and a seven year fixed rate mortgage after which the interest rate will adjust annually. In order to offer longer term fixed rate mortgages, the Bank does participate in the Freddie Mac, Farmer Mac and Small Business Lending programs. The Bank also normally retains the servicing rights on these partially or 100% sold loans. In order for the customer to participate in these programs they must meet the requirements established by those agencies. In addition, the Bank does sell some of its longer term fixed rate agricultural mortgages into the secondary market with the aid of brokers. With the acquisition of Perpetual Federal Savings Bank in the 4th quarter of 2021 and the addition of Peoples Federal Savings in the 4th quarter of 2022, the Bank saw an increase in fixed rate, long-term mortgage loans to our portfolio from that banking service area.

The Bank does not have a program to fund sub-prime loans. Sub-prime loans are characterized as a lending program or strategy that targets borrowers who pose a significantly higher risk of default than traditional retail banking customers.

All loan requests are reviewed as to credit worthiness and are subject to the Bank's underwriting guidelines as to secured versus unsecured credit. Secured loans are in turn subject to loan to value (LTV) requirements based on collateral types as set forth in the Bank's Loan Policy. In addition, credit scores of those seeking consumer credit are reviewed and if they do not meet the Bank's Loan Policy guidelines, an additional officer approval is required.

FM Investment Services, the brokerage department of the Bank, opened for business in April 1999. Securities are offered through Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. In November of 2020, FM Investment Services purchased the assets and clients of Adams County Financial Resources (ACFR) which is discussed in further detail in Note 2 to the Company’s financial statements. Securities are offered through Raymond James Financial Services, Inc.

In December of 2014, the Company became a financial holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 as amended (the “Act”), in order to provide the flexibility to take advantage of the expanded powers available to a financial holding company under the Act. Our subsidiary bank is in turn regulated and examined by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The activities of our bank subsidiary are also subject to other federal and state laws and regulations. The Company also formed a captive insurance company (the “captive”) in December 2014 which is located in Nevada and regulated by the State of Nevada Division of Insurance.

The Bank’s primary market includes communities located in the Ohio counties of Champaign, Defiance, Fulton, Hancock, Henry, Lucas, Shelby, Williams, Wood and in the Indiana counties of Adams, Allen, DeKalb, Jay, Steuben and Wells. In our banking activities, we compete directly with other commercial banks, credit unions, farm credit services, and savings and loan institutions in each of our operating localities. In a number of our locations, we compete against entities which are much larger than us. The primary factors in competing for loans and deposits are the rates charged as well as location and quality of the services provided.

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we had ~~392~~460 full time equivalent employees. The employees are not represented by a collective bargaining unit. We provide our employees with a comprehensive benefit program, some of which is contributory. We consider our employee relations to be good.

The Bank remains attentive to the current regulatory environment in light of the regulatory agencies’ risk-based approach to examinations. Regulatory changes and the complexity of new and amended rules have resulted in challenges and uncertainties which could pose an increased risk of noncompliance. Various significant mortgage rules require monitoring by means of testing, validation of results, additional training, and further research or consultation to assist with ongoing compliance.

The global spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) and resulting declaration of a world-wide pandemic have impacted the financial services industry and banking operations in the United States (US) and world-wide. The financial services sector is identified as a Critical Infrastructure Sector by the Department of Homeland Security during the COVID-19 response efforts. How basic business operations can be conducted has undergone a rapid and dramatic change. At the same time continuity of business operations involves promoting safety and security of customers and employees, providing a quality customer experience, and maintaining effective delivery systems and channels of communication. Regulatory guidance has been issued to manage and mitigate the unprecedented impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on business operations. Regulatory agencies promote prudent and practical efforts to assist customers and communities during this national emergency. Such assistance to alleviate the financial impact on affected customers involved modification of loan terms for existing borrowers, waiver of certain fees and charges, providing small dollar loans, and offering forbearance and payment deferrals on mortgage loan obligations due to financial hardship. Legislation enacted in March 2020 has provided the CARES Act. The CARES Act, among other matters, resulted in expansion of SBA Lending Programs; provided for a financial election to suspend GAAP principles and regulatory determinations for COVID-19 related loan modifications that would otherwise be deemed Troubled Debt Restructuring; gave the FDIC authority to establish a temporary Debt Guarantee Program for bank liabilities; delayed Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) compliance; reduced the Community Bank Leverage Ratio to 8% to eliminate risk-based capital compliance for banks under $10 billion; required credit furnishers that agree to deferred loan payments, forbearance on a delinquent account, or any other relief during the national emergency to report accounts as current to Credit Reporting Agencies; and defined forbearance requirements and terms for single family and multi-family loans backed by federal government agencies or government sponsored entities due to COVID-19 financial hardship. Of immediate and significant importance was the rollout of the SBA Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). The PPP authorized lending of up to $350 billion in 100% guaranteed 7(a) loans to cover payroll costs, interest on mortgage payments, rent obligations, and utilities. The PPP provided a guaranteed loan for which a portion of the loan up to or equal to 8 weeks of covered payroll and specific operating expenses can be forgiven. The maximum loan size was capped at the lessor of 250% of the average monthly payroll costs or $10 million.

In April 2020, legislation known as the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act provided additional funding to replenish and supplement key programs under the CARES Act. Included in this legislation was the extension of the PPP with an additional $320 billion in funding. At least $60 billion of this funding was to be set aside for small and midsize banks and community lenders. Since April, the SBA has issued various Interim Final Rules to supplement and clarify matters involving the PPP. The Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020 (PPPFA) was enacted in early June 2020. This provided more flexibility to Borrowers regarding use of PPP loan funds. Certain provisions were retroactive to the date of the CARES Act and all PPP loans. Among these provisions were the extension of the covered period of the loan, extension of the forgiveness period, deferral of payments based on the loan forgiveness period, reduction in the minimum that must be spent for payroll costs, extended date by which employees must be rehired, and removal of restrictions on payroll tax deferral. The term for subsequent PPO loans made after enactment of the PPPFA was extended to five years from two. A primary focus is now directed to aiding PPP borrowers in navigating the loan forgiveness process.

FFCRA requirements to provide paid leave to employees ended on December 31, 2020. Due to the extended duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, employers subject to FFCRA could voluntarily extend the paid leave option until March 31, 2021. If the employer has elected to voluntarily apply the FFCRA extension, employees eligible for leave in 2020 and did not use the leave may take the leave in 2021. Under the American Rescue Plan of 2021 enacted in March 2021, for those employers who voluntarily extend the paid leave option, paid leave was reset starting April 1, 2021. If employees previously exhausted their paid leave under FFCRA, they may be entitled to an additional 10 days/80 hours for use. Additionally, the PPP was reauthorized with passage of the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act. It was originally intended to run through March 31, 2021 and was subsequently extended to May 31, 2021. Under the new legislation, $284 billion in funding for first and second-time PPP loan borrowers was provided to the SBA. Three categories of businesses ~~are~~were eligible to apply for PPP: 1) qualified business that did not receive a PPP loan during the first funding round; 2) previous PPP loan recipients who need a second loan and meet certain criteria; previous PPP loan recipients who returned all or a portion of their original loans and want to apply to additional funding. To be eligible, any business applying for PPP must have been in operation since at least February 15, 2020. Specific eligibility criteria ~~apply~~applied to first-time PPP borrowers and previous PPP loan recipients. For 2021, PPP provides expanded coverage for expenditures in addition to covered payroll and specific operating expenses. For second-time loan recipients, the maximum loan amount was reduced from $10 million to $2 million. A loan recipient iswas eligible for full loan forgiveness if at least 60% of the loan amount is spent on payroll costs. Funds must be spent over a covered period of the loan recipients’ choosing between eight and 24 weeks after loan origination to be eligible for forgiveness. Depending on the continued duration of COVID-19 spread, further legislation and regulatory guidance may continue due to the economic impact on customers, businesses, communities, and industry sectors.

The Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, passed by Congress in December 2020, extended certain provisions of the CARES Act and affected the Company into 2021. Key banking provisions under this legislation include the following:

In December 2020, new Qualified Mortgage (QM) Definition rules were issued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. One set of rules revised the General QM definition and another set added the definition of a Seasoned QM Loan. Both QM Loan rules had an effective date of March 1, 2021. The revised General QM rule replaced the General QM loans definition of a 43% debt-to-income (DTI) limit with a focus on the loan pricing and whether the Annual Percentage Rate exceeds the average prime offer rate by less than 2.25 percentage points. Compliance with the revised General QM Loan rule had a mandatory compliance date of July 1, 2021. The existing Temporary Government Sponsored Entity (GSE) QM option was set to expire as of the mandatory compliance date for the revised General QM Rule. Subsequently, the CFPB issued a final rule published in the Federal Register on April 30, 2021 which delayed and extended the mandatory compliance date for the revised General QM rule to October 1, 2022. The Company now complies with the revised price-based new General QM Loan definition and its requirements. Since the Company sells fixed rate consumer mortgage loans to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, it must remain attentive to their current loan underwriting requirements.

On March 30, 2023, the CFPB issued final rules which amend Regulation B to implement changes to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) as made by Section 1071 of the Dodd-Frank Act. Covered financial institutions are required to collect and report data on covered credit applications involving small businesses, including those businesses owned by women or minorities. Small businesses are defined as those businesses (including agricultural businesses) which had gross annual revenue of $5 million of less during its most recent fiscal year. Data will be reported to the CFPB which will then make aggregated information publicly available. These new final rules have a phased implementation period with the largest lenders being required to collect and report data first.

Lenders that originated at least 2,500 small business loans annually must begin data collection on October 1, 2024. Lenders that originated at least 500 small business loans annually will be required to begin data collection as of April 1, 2025. For those Lenders that originated at least 100 small business loans annually, data collection will be required to begin as of January 1, 2026. The Bank conducted a preliminary assessment based on the number of covered loans originated in 2022. Based on the preliminary assessment, the Bank would be subject to the data collection requirements as of April 1, 2025. Data collection and reporting of small business loans does not include nonprofit or government entities or businesses with gross annual revenues that exceed $5 million. Additionally, data collection involves demographic information collected from a loan applicant regarding that applicant’s status as a minority-owned business, a women-owned business, and an LGBTQI+-owned business, as well as the applicant’s principal owners’ ethnicity, race, and sex. Applicants can refuse to provide demographic information.

Implementation of these final rules will involve significant changes to processes and procedures in conjunction with new software configurations to accommodate and capture required data points regarding applications and final action taken.

With regard to all regulatory matters, the Bank remains committed in making good faith efforts to comply with technical requirements of the laws, rules, regulations, and guidance from both federal and state agencies which govern its activities.

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and the Company follows general practices within the financial services industry in which it operates. At times the application of these principles requires management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.

These assumptions, estimates and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements. As this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different assumptions, estimates and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on assumptions, estimates and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Examples of critical assumptions, estimates and judgments are when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not required to be recorded at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability must be recorded contingent upon a future event. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements and in the management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued and how those values are determined for the financial statements. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to assumptions, estimates, and judgments underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination of

the ~~ALLL,~~ACL, the valuation of its ~~Mortgage~~ Servicing Rights and the valuation of real estate acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosures (“OREO Property”) as the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such could be the most subject to revision as new information becomes available.

Agricultural Real Estate Servicing Rights are included in Servicing Rights. The Company has contracted with a third party to assist in the calculation of the valuation of the Agricultural Real Estate Servicing Rights.

OREO Property held for sale is initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value minus estimated costs to sell.

Costs of holding foreclosed real estate are charged to expense in the current period, except for significant property improvements, which are capitalized. Valuations are periodically performed by management and a write-down is recorded by a charge to non-interest expense if the carrying value exceeds the fair value minus estimated costs to sell.

The net income from operations of foreclosed real estate held for sale is reported either in noninterest income or noninterest expense depending upon whether the property is in a gain or loss position overall. At ~~September~~June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, and June 30, 2022 there were no OREO property holdings. ~~OREO totaled $159 thousand and $167 thousand as of December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021 respectively.~~

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at amortized cost. Amortized cost is the principal balance outstanding, net of purchase premiums and discounts, deferred loan fees and costs. Accrued interest receivable totaled $9.7 million at June 30, 2023 and was reported in Other Assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipation repayments.

Interest income on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued and placed on nonaccrual status at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well secured and in process of collection. Mortgage loans are charged off at 180 days past due, and commercial loans are charged off to the extent principal or interest is deemed uncollectible. Consumer and credit card loans continue to accrue interest until they are charged off no later than 120 days past due unless the loan is in the process of collection. Past-due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Under the cost-recovery method, interest income is not recognized until the loan balance is reduced to zero. Under the cash-basis method, interest income is recorded when the payment is received in cash. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

The ~~ALLL and~~ ACL represents management’s estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the Bank’s loan portfolio, unfunded loan commitments, and letters of credit at the report date. The ~~ALLL~~ACL methodology is regularly reviewed for its appropriateness and is approved annually by the Board of Directors. This written methodology is consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles which provides for a consistently applied analysis.

The ACL 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. Loans are charged off against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off.

The Bank’s methodology provides an estimate of the probable credit losses either by calculating a specific loss per credit or by applying our methodology to groupings based on similar risk characteristics.

The loan portfolio was grouped based on loans with similar risk characteristics. The following groupings are utilized in the CECL calculation:

Groups using the average charge-off method utilize a ~~composite~~20-year lookback historical loss period. This includes several economic cycles and is more appropriate for real estate secured assets. Due to the Company's loss history not being sufficient and relevant enough to predict future losses, the Company is utilizing peer data from a peer group of 327 banks in the region with asset sizes less than $5 billion. The Company will compare our loan loss reserves against peer to determine if we are in line with the group. The Company's loan portfolio has changed significantly as loan growth has occurred. Thus, we don't deem the Company's historical ~~factors over~~portfolio to be quite as indicative of the future portfolio and, subsequently, loss exposure.

The reserves are calculated at the loan level and based on the note characteristics, essentially balances times loss rate + Q-factors + forward look, with the forward looking forecast eliminated after 12 months. As a ~~relevant~~percentage, the reserves are the highest against construction and land loans due to the life of loan being down and several larger loans being converted to permanent financing and therefore coming out of the construction bucket during 2023 thus affecting the reserves. The second largest reserve pool is the CRE construction and land loan, as these are loans that will convert to normal CRE loans after construction with permanent financing already in place, typically based on some leases signed before construction starts to reduce the risk profile of the loan. CRE loans are naturally reserved higher than multifamily loans given the stability in the multifamily sector. Ag loans have a low overall reserve, but they also have the lowest loss rates. Commercial and industrial loans have a lower reserve than CRE considering the average life of loan is much less (i.e., shorter amortization and lines of credit). The other loan groups did not have material changes during the quarter. We expect the Construction groups to have the most variability in the reserve, though having those higher reserves is important during this environment of construction delays and overruns.

In order to provide a consistent and supportable forward looking forecast from period-to-period, management is performing a regression analysis of the (Bank's/State's) historical loss rates against the following Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) quarterly economic projections for Change in real GDP and National Unemployment. Annual projections are broken down using a straight-line approach for quarterly changes. Accounting guidance indicates the forecast period should be reasonable and supportable. Management believes that a forecast period of ~~time with~~12 months is reasonable as one year corresponds to the expected change in Fed policy given the current ~~internal~~spreads between 1- and ~~external factors~~10-year T-bills, the Company has annual line of credit maturities on many credits which ~~may affect~~gives the Company the ability to reassess risk, and the economic forecast in general is usually only feasible out to one year.

Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not also included in the collective evaluation. When management determines that foreclosure is probable expected credit ~~collectability. Such factors which may influence estimated~~ losses are based on the ~~conditions~~fair value of the ~~local~~collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate.

Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals, and ~~national economy, local unemployment trends,~~modifications unless either of the following applies: management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a modification to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty will be executed with an individual borrower or the extension or renewal options are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and ~~abilities of lending staff, valuation trends of fixed assets, and trends in credit delinquency, classified credits, and credit losses.~~are not unconditionally cancellable by the Company.

Inherent in most estimates is imprecision. ~~The Bank’s ALLL may include a margin for imprecision with an unallocated portion.~~ Bank regulatory agencies and external auditors periodically review the Bank’s methodology and adequacy of the ~~ALLL.~~ACL. Any required changes in the ~~ALLL~~ACL or loan charge-offs by these agencies or auditors may have a material effect on the ~~ALLL.~~ACL. For more information regarding the estimates and calculations used to establish the ~~ALLL~~ACL please see Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements provided herewith.

The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life.

The categories of off-balance sheet exposures are the same as the categories for the ACL presented prior. The construction funding assumptions for the first six months were based on a sample of loans in the portfolio and their weighted average draw percentages. The remaining amounts are assumed to be drawn during the second six months. For all term loan groupings that are solely term loans, (e.g., CRE, Single Family, Farmland and Consumer), we have assumed 100% utilization after one year. For HELOC, we forecast utilization will return to 2019's level of 46% (pre-pandemic), which would result in a 9% increase - we have straight-lined that over the next year. For Agriculture loans, we assume year end 2022's line of credit usage will increase to 2019's level as well given the runoff of PPP, impact of inflation on input costs, which means Ag line utilization will increase. For C&I loans, we assume year end 2022's line of credit usage will increase to 2018's level given the runoff of PPP, impact of inflation on input costs, and slower inventory turns, which mean C&I loans (including term debt) will increase. As the Company adjusted funding assumptions, it did not have material effects on the calculation. We have utilized internal data to make these assumptions, which we believe is representative of our portfolio.

The Bank is also required to estimate the value of its ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights. These rights are composed of servicing rights for single-family mortgage loans and agricultural real estate loans. The Bank’s ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights relating to fixed rate single-family mortgage loans and agricultural real estate loans that it has sold without recourse but services for others for a fee represent an asset on the Bank’s balance sheet. The ~~valuation is~~valuations are completed by independent third parties.

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company engaged an independent third ~~party.~~party with expertise in the valuation of agricultural real estate servicing rights. The independent third party’s valuation of the agricultural real estate servicing rights is based on relevant characteristics of the Company’s agricultural real estate loan servicing portfolio, such as loan terms, interest rates and recent national prepayment experience, as well as current national market interest rate levels, market forecasts and other economic conditions. Management, with the advice from its third party valuation firm, reviewed the assumptions related to prepayment speeds, discount rates, and capitalized mortgage servicing income. Changes are reflected in the current quarter’s analysis related to the mortgage servicing asset.

While the process is similar to the process for valuing single family mortgage servicing rights, the ag servicing valuation utilizes different strata, prepayment speeds and other assumptions in order to account for the differences in behavior between ag loans and single 1-4 family mortgages. USDA rate indications, SBA market indications and Farmer Mac 3-month Cost of Funds Index adjustments are utilized in the quarterly valuation process.

As a result of this refined analysis, representing a change in accounting estimate, management recognized an additional $712 thousand of agricultural loan servicing rights during the quarter ended June 30, 2023. This change in estimate took place during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and had no effect on past periods. Management intends to obtain the appraisal of the agricultural real estate loan servicing rights from the independent third party specialist on a quarterly basis.

The expected and actual rates of mortgage loan prepayments are the most significant factors driving the potential for the impairment of the value of ~~mortgage~~ servicing assets. Increases in mortgage loan prepayments reduce estimated future net servicing cash flows because the life of the underlying loan is reduced.

The Bank’s ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights relating to loans serviced for others represent an asset. This asset is initially capitalized and included on the Company's ~~consolidated balance sheet.~~Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights are then amortized as noninterest expense in proportion to, and over the period of the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights. There are a number of factors, however, that can affect the ultimate value of the ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights to the Bank. The expected and actual rates of ~~mortgage~~ag loans and single 1-4 family loan prepayments are the most significant factors driving the potential for the impairment of

the value of ~~mortgage~~ servicing assets. Increases in ~~mortgage~~ loan prepayments reduce estimated future net servicing cash flows because the life of the underlying loan is reduced, meaning that the present value of the ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights is less than the carrying value of those rights on the Bank's balance sheet.

Therefore, in an attempt to reflect an accurate expected value to the Bank of the ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights, the Bank receives a valuation of its ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights from an independent third party. The independent third party's valuation of the ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights is based on relevant characteristics of the Bank's loan servicing portfolio, such as loan terms, interest rates and recent national prepayment experience, as well as current national market interest rate levels, market forecasts and other economic conditions.

For purposes of determining impairment, the mortgage servicing assets are stratified into like groups based on loan type, term, new versus seasoned and interest rate. Management, with the advice from its third-party valuation firm, reviews the assumptions related to prepayment speeds, discount rates, and capitalized mortgage servicing income on a quarterly basis. Changes are reflected in the following quarter's analysis related to the mortgage servicing asset. In addition, based upon the independent third party's valuation of the Bank's ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights, management then establishes a valuation allowance by each stratum, if necessary, to quantify the likely impairment of the value of the ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights to the Bank. The estimates of prepayment speeds and discount rates are inherently uncertain, and different estimates could have a material impact on the

Bank's net income and results of operations. The valuation allowance is evaluated and adjusted quarterly by management to reflect changes in the fair value of the underlying ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights based on market conditions.

The accuracy of these estimates and assumptions by management and its third party valuation specialist can be directly tied back to the fact that management has only been required to record minor valuation allowances through its income statement over time based upon the valuation of each stratum of servicing rights.

The Company ~~plans~~has begun to ~~continue~~experience a slowdown in its growth ~~mode~~mode. It is partly due to a natural decrease in ~~2022 led by~~borrowers loan demand as higher interest rates have made projected capital outlays too costly. The Bank has also experienced a more challenging environment in which to raise lower cost core deposits. Therefore, the Bank has maintained an emphasis on servicing existing clients and focus on prudent growth ~~from~~ within our newer markets. The Bank is focused on funding the loan growth with the least expensive source of deposits ~~sale of securities~~ or borrowings. While securities are generally considered as a source of cash, in the current environment, it is unlikely that they would be sold for such funding needs. Growing deposits will ~~also~~ be a focus especially in our newer markets. The Bank offers the Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) product accessed through the ~~Promontory~~IntraFi network of financial institutions which helps to reduce the amount of pledged securities. This has provided more availability for runoff of securities by the Bank if warranted to fund loan growth.

As the competition for deposits has increased, the Company has increased emphasis on its liquidity position. The frequency of management liquidity meetings has increased to weekly in order to be more responsive to opportunities and threats as they arise. As a result of this increased emphasis on its liquidity position, additional real estate backed collateral has been pledged to the FHLB in order to increase borrowing capacity. The additional collateral of $165.2 million as of June 30, 2023 is tied to specific commercial real estate loans. Additional capacity has also been created through enrollment and pledging $64.5 million of securities, having a par value of $74.1 million, to the Federal Reserve's Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP). The BTFP collateral values are based on the par value of the securities rather than the fair values most other lenders utilize. Currently, par values are higher than fair value which results in a higher available balance for borrowings. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had not utilized any funding from the BTFP.

Liquidity in terms of cash and cash equivalents ended ~~$110.2~~$13.2 million lower as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 than it was at ~~yearend~~ December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. Cash and cash equivalents increased $6.9 million over March 31, 2023. Prior year’s excess liquidity along with ~~an increase in deposits of $89.6 million and~~ an increase of Federal Home Loan Bank advances of ~~$78.1~~$139.3 million helped to fund the ~~$281.4~~$154.8 million increase in net loans since year end ~~2021.~~2022. All loan portfolios with the exception of the ~~other~~Agricultural portfolio, Consumer Portfolio and Other portfolio increased compared to December 31, ~~2021~~2022 with the largest increase in the commercial real estate portfolio.

In comparing to the same prior year period, the ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 (net of deferred fees and cost) loan balances of ~~$2.1~~$2.5 billion accounted for ~~$647.1~~$481.0 million or ~~43.3%~~23.6% increase when compared to ~~2021’s $1.5~~2022’s $2.0 billion. The year over year improvement was made up of a combined increase in commercial and industrial related loans of ~~40.1%.~~26.5%, 18.5% of which was attributed to organic growth. Individual growth was comprised of ~~46.0%~~30.8% in commercial real estate loans and ~~18.0%~~8.7% in non-real estate commercial loans. ~~PPP loans of approximately $7.4 thousand and $9.8 million are included in the non-real estate commercial portfolio as of September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.~~ Consumer real estate loans increased by ~~105.6%~~23.5% and consumer loans by ~~27.8%~~60.2%. Agricultural related loans increased ~~17.1%~~9.8% year over year. Individual growth was comprised of ~~14.4%~~15.5% in agricultural real estate and ~~21.8%~~an increase of 1.0% in non-real estate agricultural loans. Other loans decreased by ~~1.4%~~7.2%. The Company credits the growth ~~not only to the OFSI and PFSB acquisitions but also~~ to the strong team of lenders focused on providing customers valuable localized services and thereby increasing our market share. The acquisition of Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Association in 2022 brought $101.8 million of loans to the portfolio. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

The chart below shows the breakdown of the loan portfolio category as of ~~September~~June 30, for the last three years, net of deferred fees and costs.

The following is a contractual maturity schedule by major category of loans excluding fair value adjustments as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

Management feels confident that liquidity needs for future growth can be met through additional maturities from the security portfolio, increased deposits and additional borrowings. For short term needs, the Bank has $113 million and $73 million of unsecured borrowing capacity through its correspondent banks as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 respectively. The Bank also had access to $150.1 million through a Cash Management Advance with the Federal Home Loan Bank as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Additionally, the BTFP had a borrowing capacity of $74.1 million at June 30, 2023.

While the security portfolio has been utilized to fund loan growth in previous periods, additional sources have been cultivated during ~~2020,~~ 2021, 2022, and ~~2022.~~2023. The security portfolio decreased ~~$34.4~~$27.6 million in the first ~~nine~~six months of ~~2022~~2023 from year end ~~2021~~2022 due to the sale of $21.6 million of securities which was partially offset by a $2.9 million decrease in unrealized losses. The security portfolio decreased $36.5 million from June 2022 due to an increase of gross unrealized losses of ~~$40.8 million. The security portfolio decreased $31.2~~$5.9 million ~~from September 2021 due to an increase of gross unrealized losses of $44.4 million.~~and the aforementioned sale. The amount of pledged investment securities increased by ~~$22.0~~$107.7 million as compared to year end and ~~$55.9~~$112.4 million as compared to ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021. Liquidity is improved with the additional option of selling unpledged investment securities if needed to fund loan growth or other initiatives.~~2022. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, pledged investment securities totaled ~~$133.0 million. However, in the current environment, it is unlikely that they would be sold for fundings needs. The current portfolio is in a net unrealized loss position of $47.8~~$242.5 million.

~~For the Bank, an~~An additional ~~$29.0~~$1.6 million is also available to the Bank from the Federal Home Loan Bank based on current amounts of pledged collateral. At the present time, only 1-4 family, ~~and~~ home equity, limited commercial real estate portfolios and some securities are pledged. ~~Additional borrowings would be available if additional portfolios (i.e. commercial real estate) were pledged.~~

On July 30, 2021, the Company announced the completion of a private placement of $35 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.25% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due July 30, 2031 (the “Notes”) to various accredited investors (the “Offering”). The price for the Notes was 100% of the principal amount of the Notes. The Notes qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes in proportionate amounts until July 30, 2026. The Company used the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, including financing acquisitions and organic growth.

Due to the funding requirement for the acquisition of PFSB to be provided from the holding company, the Company secured borrowings from a correspondent bank. Two loans were secured, the first a $30 million 12-month term note and the second a 12-month line of credit for $10 million. Both loans were advanced on October 1, 2021. Interest on both loans was due quarterly and accrued at a rate 2.50% per annum with reporting and capital covenants included. The structure of the acquisition required all accounting of the transaction to be recorded at the Bank level as Perpetual did not have a holding company. Therefore, the Company advanced funds from the Bank to the Company to facilitate payoff of the term note. The term note and the line of credit balance were paid off in the second quarter of 2022. The line of credit remains open for future liquidity needs.

With the exception of FHLB stocks, carried at cost, which is shown as other securities, all of the Company’s security portfolio is categorized as “available-for-sale” and as such is recorded at fair value.

Management feels confident that liquidity needs for future growth can be met through additional maturities from the security portfolio, increased deposits and additional borrowings. For short term needs, the Bank has $73 million and $69 million of unsecured borrowing capacity through its correspondent banks as of September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 respectively. The Bank also had access to $130.4 million and $94.2 million through a Cash Management Advance with the Federal Home Loan Bank as of September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

Overall total assets increased ~~5.5%~~4.4% since year end ~~2021~~2022 and grew ~~25.5%~~17.7% since ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. The largest growth in both periods was in the loan portfolios. Goodwill also increased ~~significantly~~$5.9 million compared to ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

The tax-exempt interest income was $139 and $143 thousand for the second quarter 2023 and 2022 which resulted in a federal tax savings of $29 and $30 thousand, respectively.

Change in Interest Income Quarter to Date ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 Compared to ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022

~~Offsetting~~Outpacing the higher interest income improvement for the quarter was an increase in interest expense in ~~2022~~2023 of ~~$1.6~~$11.2 million or ~~95.2%~~547.7% compared to ~~third~~second quarter ~~2021.~~2022. Since ~~2021,~~2022, average interest-bearing deposit balances have increased ~~$317.9~~$222.2 million or ~~22.2%~~12.7% and the Company recognized ~~$945 thousand~~$9.1 million more in interest expense for the most recent quarter. March 2022 saw the first rate change since March of 2020 with an increase of 25 basis points which was followed by an increase of 50 basis points in May and ~~three~~four increases of 75 basis points in June, July, September and ~~September.~~November with a final 50 basis point increase in December. To date in 2023, there have been three increases of 25 basis points in February, March and May. Deposit rates have been adjusted numerous times with all the rate increases. Interest expense on FHLB borrowings and other borrowings increased ~~$311 thousand~~$1.9 million in the ~~third~~second quarter ~~2022~~2023 over the same time frame in ~~2021~~2022 due to borrowings taken on from the ~~Perpetual~~Peoples acquisition and new FHLB borrowings ~~of $80 million~~ in 2022 and 2023 used to fund loan growth.

Change in Interest Expense Quarter to Date ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 Compared to ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022

Overall, net interest spread for the ~~third~~second quarter ~~2022~~2023 was 8117 basis points lower than last year. As the following chart indicates, the improvement in yields on interest earning assets did not offset the increased cost of funds when comparing to the same period a year ago. Competition for deposits is intense with most competitors offering special rates for specific terms.

Net interest income ~~increased $4.1~~decreased $1.7 million for the ~~third~~second quarter ~~2022~~2023 over the same time frame in ~~2021~~2022 with the increase in interest income of ~~$5.7~~$9.5 million offset by the higher interest expense of ~~$1.6~~$11.2 million as previously mentioned. As the new loans added in ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2022~~2023 generate more income, management expects the benefits of the Company’s strategy of repositioning the balance sheet to ~~continue~~increase interest income in the long run.

The Allowance for ~~Loan and Lease~~Credit Losses ~~(ALLL)~~(ACL) has a direct impact on the provision expense. The increase in the ~~ALLL~~ACL is funded through recoveries and provision expense. The following tables both deal with the allowance for credit losses. The first table breaks down the activity within ~~ALLL~~ACL for each loan portfolio class and shows the contribution provided by both the recoveries and the provision along with the reduction of the allowance caused by charge-offs. The second table discloses how much of the ~~ALLL~~ACL is attributed to each class of the loan portfolio, as well as the percent that each particular class of the loan portfolio represents to the entire loan portfolio in the aggregate. The agriculture real estate loan portfolio accounted for the largest component of recoveries and the consumer loan portfolio accounted for the largest component of charge-offs for three months ended June 30, 2023 and ~~recoveries for third quarter of 2022 and 2021.~~2022. The commercial real estate portfolio is currently creating a large impact on the ~~ALLL~~ACL due to the loan growth.

Loan charge-offs were ~~$20~~$57 thousand lower during the three months ended June 30, 2023 than the same period in 2022. Recoveries were $51 thousand higher during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to same period in 2022. Combined net recoveries were $108 thousand higher in ~~third quarter 2022 than~~ the ~~same quarter 2021. Recoveries were $3 thousand lower in third quarter 2022 as compared to third quarter 2021.

The largest changes were attributed to the increase of past due balances in the agricultural portfolio, agricultural real estate portfolio, ~~and consumer~~commercial real estate portfolio and commercial and industrial portfolio. The increase in the agricultural real estate portfolio was attributable to two larger relationships while the increase in the other categories were multiple, smaller relationships.

The following table breaks down the activity within the ~~ALLL~~ACL for each loan portfolio class and shows the contribution provided by both recoveries and the provision, along with the reduction of the allowance caused by charge-offs. The time period covered is for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2023 , 2022, ~~2021,~~ and ~~2020.~~2021.

* Nonperforming loans are defined as all loans on nonaccrual, plus any loans 90 days past due not on nonaccrual.

The Bank uses the following guidelines as stated in policy to determine when to realize a charge-off of a loan, whether partial loan balance or full loan balance. The Bank is also following the guidelines established under the CARES Act. A charge down in whole or in part is realized when unsecured consumer loans, credit card credits and overdraft lines of credit reach 90 days delinquency. At 120 days delinquent, secured consumer loans are charged down to the value of the collateral, if repossession of the collateral is assured and/or in the process of repossession. Consumer mortgage loan deficiencies are charged down upon the sale of the collateral or sooner upon the recognition of collateral deficiency. A broker’s price opinion or appraisal will be completed on all home loans in litigation and any deficiency will be charged off before reaching 150 days delinquent. Commercial and agricultural credits are charged down/allocated at 120 days delinquency, unless an established and approved work-out plan is in place or litigation of the credit will likely result in recovery of the loan balance. Upon notification of bankruptcy, unsecured debt is charged off. Additional charge-offs may be realized as further unsecured positions are recognized.

Loans classified as nonaccrual were lower as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 at ~~$5.5~~$4.7 million as compared to ~~$6.2~~$5.2 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. The agricultural ~~real estate~~ portfolio decreased ~~$2.4~~$1.1 million ~~and the commercial and industrial portfolio decreased $485 thousand~~ as compared to ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021. These decreases~~2022. This decrease offset the increases in the other portfolios.

In determining the allocation for impaired loans, the Bank applies the appraised market value of the collateral securing the asset, reduced by applying a discount for estimated costs of collateral liquidation. In some instances where the discounted market value is less than the loan amount, a specific impairment allocation is assigned, which may be reduced or eliminated by the write down of the credit’s active principal outstanding balance.

For the majority of the Bank’s impaired loans, including all collateral dependent loans, the Bank will apply the appraised market value methodology. However, the Bank may also utilize a measurement incorporating the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective rate of interest. To determine appraised market value, collateral asset values securing an impaired loan are periodically evaluated. Maximum time of re-evaluation is every 12 months for chattels and titled vehicles and every two years for real estate. In this process, third party evaluations are obtained and heavily relied upon. Until such time that updated appraisals are received, the Bank may discount the collateral value used.

The following table presents the balances for allowance for ~~loan~~credit losses by loan type at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

Noninterest income was ~~down $342~~up $952 thousand for the ~~third quarter 2022~~three months ended June 30, 2023 over the same time frame in ~~2021.~~ 2022. Combined service fees increased by $1.0 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. Servicing rights income for 1-4 family and agricultural real estate loans increased $665 thousand as the valuation of the agricultural real estate servicing rights was refined by $712 thousand due to the previously described change in the accounting estimate. During the second quarter of 2023 the independent third party engaged by the Bank refined the analysis of the agricultural real estate servicing rights. It was determined that the servicing rights asset was undervalued by $712 thousand as of December 31, 2022 related to agricultural real estate servicing rights. This change in estimate was recognized during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and had no effect on prior periods. Going forward, the third party valuation firm will complete the valuation quarterly to determine if any impairment needs to be recognized. Debit card income increased by $106 thousand and bank owned life insurance cash surrender value increased $41 thousand. Also contributing to the increase was overdraft and returned check charges which increased $78 thousand compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. Fee income from credit cards decreased by $22 thousand as compared to 2022.

The Company has seen a decrease in its mortgage production volume due to the heightened borrowing costs and ~~the~~continued lack of housing inventory in many of our markets. The gain on the sale of these loans was ~~$495~~$56 thousand lower for the ~~third quarter 2022~~three months ended June 30, 2023 over the same period in ~~2021.~~2022. Loan originations on loans held for sale for the ~~third quarter 2022~~three months ended June 30, 2023 were ~~$14.2~~$8.4 million with proceeds from sale at ~~$16.6~~$8.0 million for ~~2022~~2023 compared to ~~2021’s third quarter~~2022’s activity of ~~$21.7~~$20.9 million in originations and ~~$26.8~~$22.9 million in sales. ~~Loan originations driven by the refinance activity associated with the reduction in interest rates has slowed.~~ The mortgages sold were both 1-4 family and agricultural real estate loans originated for sale.

Combined service fees increased by $153 thousand as compared to third quarter 2021. Debit card income increased by $133 thousand and bank owned life insurance cash surrender value increased $17 thousand. Also contributing to the increase was overdraft and returned check charges which increased $342 thousand compared to third quarter 2021. Service fee income for 1-4 family and agricultural real estate loans decreased by $108 thousand while servicing rights income decreased $634 thousand.

The impact of ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights, both to income and expense, is shown in the following table which reconciles the value of ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights. The capitalization runs through noninterest income while the amortization thereof is included in ~~non-interest~~noninterest expense. For the ~~third quarter of~~six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021, mortgage~~ servicing rights caused a net ~~$31 thousand~~$2.1 million in ~~expense~~income and ~~$22~~$44 thousand in income, respectively. The ~~lower~~higher capitalized additions for ~~2022~~2023 are attributed to ~~a lower loan origination level~~$2.2 million of ~~1-4 families.~~rights related to agricultural loans. Amortization of agricultural rights was $74 thousand for the first half of 2023. For loans of 15 years and less, the market value of the ~~mortgage~~ servicing rights was ~~0.988%~~1.043% in the ~~third~~second quarter ~~2022~~2023 versus ~~1.160%~~0.97% in ~~third~~second quarter ~~2021.~~2022. For loans over 15 years, the value was ~~1.299%~~1.464% versus ~~a higher 1.355%~~1.099% for the same periods respectively. ~~The carrying value is below the market value of $4.6 million.~~ A valuation allowance of $414 thousand was established during 2021.

The increase was due to the investment in people for our strategic growth initiative and staffing of new offices. The additional cost of the offices is also evident in the increased expenses in net occupancy and furniture and equipment. Advertising and public relations expense increased ~~$128 thousand~~$530 thousand. This was due, in part, to ~~the promotion of the 125th anniversary of the Bank.~~our new logo launch.

Although third quarter 2022 included an increase of $978 thousand of loan loss provision as compared to third quarter 2021, net interest income after provision for loan losses increased $3.2 million during the same period of comparison. The Company has done an exceptional job of growing loans while keeping past dues low. The Company remains strong, stable, and well capitalized and has the capacity to continue to cover the increased costs of expansion.

The Allowance for Credit Losses (ACL) has a direct impact on the provision expense. The increase in the ACL is funded through recoveries and provision expense. The following tables both deal with the allowance for credit losses. The first table breaks down the activity within ACL for each loan portfolio class and shows the contribution provided by both the recoveries and the provision along with the reduction of the allowance caused by charge-offs. The second table discloses how much of the ACL is attributed to each class of the loan portfolio, as well as the percent that each particular class of the loan portfolio represents to the entire loan portfolio in the aggregate. The consumer loan portfolio accounted for the largest component of charge-offs and recoveries for six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The commercial real estate portfolio is currently creating a large impact on the ACL due to the loan growth.

The time period covered is for ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2023, 2022, ~~2021,~~ and ~~2020.~~2021.

* Nonperforming loans are defined as all loans on nonaccrual, plus any loans 90 days past due not on nonaccrual.

Loans classified as nonaccrual were lower as of June 30, 2023 at $4.7 million as compared to $5.2 million as of June 30, 2022. The agricultural portfolio decreased $1.1 million as compared to June 30, 2022. These decreases offset the increases in the other portfolios.

Noninterest income was up $786 thousand for the ~~first nine~~six months ~~of 2022 decreased~~ended June 30, 2023 over the ~~first nine months~~same time frame in 2022. Servicing rights income for 1-4 family and agricultural real estate loans increased $2.1 million. This was due to the establishment of ~~2021 by $1.7 million. Gain on sale~~agricultural real estate servicing rights of ~~loans showed a $1.6~~$1.5 million ~~decrease over~~in the first ~~nine months~~quarter and a change in the accounting estimate of ~~2021.~~$712 thousand in the second quarter. Combined service fees ~~decreased~~increased by ~~$231 thousand with increased debit~~$2.4 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Debit card income ~~of $133~~increased by $181 thousand and bank owned life insurance cash surrender value ~~increases of $17~~increased $81 thousand. ~~Servicing rights income decreased by $634 thousand. Service charge income decreased by $6 thousand while~~Also contributing to the increase was overdraft and returned check charges which increased $116 thousand compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Fee income from credit cards decreased by $154 thousand as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

The Company has seen a decrease in its mortgage production volume and the gain on the sale of these loans was $686 thousand lower for the six months ended June 30, 2023 over the same period in 2022. Loan originations on loans held for sale for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $15.0 million with proceeds from sale at $14.5 million for 2023 compared to 2022’s activity of $47.1 million in originations and $51.4 million in sales. Loan originations driven by refinance activity have drastically decreased with the higher interest rates in 2023. Inventory in many of our markets remain low. The mortgages sold were both 1-4 family and agricultural real estate loans originated for sale.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, noninterest expenses were $7.0 million higher than for the same period in 2022. Salaries, wages, and employee benefits (includes normal merit increases, restricted stock expense, incentive payout and all employee benefits) increased ~~by $390~~$2.9 million in total. This was comprised of increased salaries of $2.3 million and increased benefits of $636 thousand. The ~~Company did sell some~~increase was due to the investment in people for our strategic growth initiative. Advertising and public relations expense increased $807 thousand. This was due, in part, to our new logo launch. Data processing expenses increased $264 thousand. Credit card expense increased $462 thousand related to the conversion of ~~its available-for-sale securities~~our credit card platform in the first ~~nine months~~quarter. The conversion expense also included a scorecard conversion expense of ~~2021 and recognized a gain of $293 thousand that was not repeated in 2022.~~

Through the first nine months of 2022, noninterest expenses were $459 thousand higher than in the first nine months of 2021. Third party related acquisition costs decreased $2.1 million for the first nine months of 2022 compared to the first nine months of 2021. The nine months of 2022 included an increase of $1.9 million in salaries and wages partially offset by a decrease of $538 thousand in employee benefits.

Data processing fees were $442 thousand lower than last year. This is a result of acquisition related data processing fees of $939 thousand incurred during the first nine months of 2021 that were not repeated in 2022. Acquisition related consulting fees decreased $349 thousand during the first nine months of 2022. This contributed to overall consulting fees decreasing $208 thousand during that same period. FDIC assessment expense decreased by $153 thousand due to a decreased assessment rate that has offset an increased assessment base. Legal fees decreased $238 thousand over 2021.

~~Ohio Financial Institution Tax increased $317~~$108 thousand in the first ~~nine months of 2022 due~~quarter. This represented awards earned by customers that the Company paid to ~~overall growth. General and administrative expenses~~honor rather than allowing them to be lost in the conversion.

Statements contained in this portion of the Company's report may be forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "intend," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "should," "planned," "estimated," and "potential." Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, but actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors, which include, but are not limited to, factors discussed in documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. Other factors which could have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board, the quality and composition of the loan or investment portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in the Bank's market area, changes in relevant accounting principles and guidelines and other factors over which management has no control, including, but not limited to, the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this report, and the Company assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates and equity prices. The primary market risk to which the Company is subject is interest rate risk. The majority of our interest rate risk arises from the instruments, positions and transactions entered into for purposes other than trading such as loans, available for sale securities, interest bearing deposits, short term borrowings and long term borrowings. Interest rate risk occurs when interest bearing assets and liabilities re-price at different times as market interest rates change. For example, if fixed rate assets are funded with variable rate debt, the spread between asset and liability rates will decline or turn negative if rates increase.

Interest rate risk is managed within an overall asset/liability framework. The principal objectives of asset/liability management are to manage sensitivity of net interest spreads and net income to potential changes in interest rates.

Funding positions are kept within predetermined limits designed to ensure that risk-taking is not excessive and that liquidity is properly managed. In the event that our asset/liabilities management strategies are unsuccessful, our profitably may be adversely affected. The Company employs a sensitivity analysis utilizing interest rate shocks to help in this analysis.

The shocks presented below assume an immediate change of rate in the percentages and directions shown covering a twelve month period:

The net interest margin represents the forecasted twelve month margin. The Company also reviews shocks with a 4.0% fluctuation with a delayed time frame of 10 months and over a 24 month time frame. It also shows the effect rate changes will have on both the margin and net interest income. The goal of the Company is to lengthen the term of some of the Bank’s fixed rate liabilities or sources of funds to decrease the exposure to a rising rate environment. Of course, customer desires also impact the Bank’s ability to attract longer term deposits.

The shock chart currently shows a widening in net interest margin over the next twelve months in a rising rate environment up to a 1.00% increase and a tightening as it moves from 1.00% towards the 2.00% and 3.00% increases as well as in athe falling rate ~~environment.~~environments. The 1.00% rising rate ~~scenarios are~~scenario is predicted to expand the net interest margin and produce a higher ~~levels~~level of net interest income. Cost of funds are at ~~0.68% for the quarter and 0.53%~~2.10% for the year so the ~~lowest~~falling shock of ~~100~~200 basis points is where the Bank can take partial advantage and reprice some funds to match the level of shock. Once the shocks are falling over ~~100~~200 basis points, the cost of funds cannot lower to match and the loss on net interest income continues to build. The average duration of the majority of the assets is outside the 12 month shock period. The majority of the newer loans added to the commercial real estate portfolio begin with an initial fixed rate period of three to five years whose variable adjustment is outside of the current shock time frame. The Bank continues to adjust its assumptions by including decay rates and key rate ties on certain deposit accounts and continues to review and modify those rates as the index rates change. All shocks are within risk exposure guidelines at all levels. The effect of the rate shocks may be mitigated to the extent that not all lines of business are directly tied to an external index and actual balance sheet composition may differ from prediction.

Overall, the Company must concentrate on increasing loan spreads on variable loans and limit the increase on cost of funds where possible.

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company's management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Except as ~~otherwise noted~~indicated below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s risk factors from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

~~Global Economic and Geopolitical Instability and Inflationary Risks~~Recent Events Impacting the Financial Services Industry

~~Instability~~Recent events impacting the financial services industry, including the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, have resulted in ~~global economic conditions~~decreased confidence in banks among consumer and ~~geopolitical matters,~~commercial depositors, other counterparties and investors, as well as significant disruption, volatility and reduced valuations of equity and other securities of banks in ~~financial markets,~~the capital markets. These events occurred during a period of rapidly rising interest rates which, among other things, has resulted in unrealized losses in longer duration securities and loans held by banks, more competition for bank deposits and may increase the risk of a potential recession. These recent events have, and could continue to, adversely impact the market price and volatility of the Company's common stock.

These recent events may also result in potentially adverse changes to laws or regulations governing banks and bank holding companies or result in the impositions of restrictions through supervisory or enforcement activities, including higher capital requirements, which could have a material ~~adverse effect~~impact on our business. Inability to access short-term funding or the ~~Company’s results~~loss of ~~operations~~client deposits could increase our cost of funding, limit access to capital markets or negatively impact our overall liquidity or capitalization. Moreover, we may be impacted by concerns regarding the soundness or creditworthiness of other financial institutions, which can cause substantial and cascading disruption within the financial ~~condition. The macroeconomic environment~~markets and increased expenses. In addition, the cost of resolving the recent bank failures may prompt the FDIC to increase its premiums above the recently increased levels or to issue additional special assessments.

Periods of inflation may impact our profitability by negatively impacting our fixed costs and expenses, including increasing funding costs and expense related to talent acquisition and retention. Additionally, inflation may lead to a decrease in our customers’ purchasing power and negatively affect the ~~United States is susceptible to global events and volatility in financial markets. For example, global~~need or demand for our products and services. If significant inflation continues, our business could also be negatively affected by, among other things, increased default rates leading to ~~exceed~~credit losses which could decrease our appetite for new credit extensions.

There is an increasing concern over the risks of climate change and related environmental sustainability matters. The physical risks of climate change include discrete events, such as flooding and wildfires, and longer-term shifts in climate patterns, such as extreme heat, sea level rise, and more frequent and prolonged drought. Under medium or longer-term scenarios, such events, if uninterrupted or unaddressed, could disrupt our operations or those of our customers or third parties on which we rely, including through direct damage to assets and indirect impacts from supply ~~during~~chain disruption and market volatility. While the ~~economic recovery from~~timing and severity of climate change may not be entirely predictable and our risk management processes may not be effective in mitigating climate risk exposure, we continue to build capabilities to identify, assess, and manage climate risks.

We rely on quantitative modeling to measure risks and to estimate certain financial values. Quantitative models may be used to help manage certain aspects of our business and to assist with certain business decisions, including estimating expected lifetime credit losses, measuring the ~~COVID-19 pandemic, creating significant inflationary pressures which, in turn, may adversely impact regional~~fair value of financial instruments when reliable market prices are unavailable, estimating the effects of changing interest rates and ~~global economic conditions, as well as the Company’s~~other market measures on our financial condition and results of ~~operations.~~operations, managing risk, and for capital planning purposes. All models have certain limitations. For instance, these methodologies inherently rely on assumptions, historical analyses, and correlations which may not capture or fully incorporate all relevant conditions and circumstances. As a consequence, such limitations may result in losses, particularly in times of market distress. Additionally, as businesses and markets continue to rapidly evolve, our measurements may not accurately reflect this evolution. Even if the underlying assumptions and historical correlations used in our models are adequate, our models may be deficient due to errors in computer code, inaccurate data, misuse of data, or the use of a model for a purpose outside the scope of the model’s design.

Reliance on such models presents the risk that our resulting business decisions will be adversely affected due to incorrect, missing, or misleading information. If our models fail to produce reliable results on an ongoing basis, we may not make appropriate risk management, capital planning, or other business or financial decisions. Strategies that we employ to manage and govern the risks associated with our use of models may not be effective or fully reliable. Also, information that we provide to the public or regulators based on poorly designed models could be inaccurate or misleading.
