On February 28, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Alpine Bancorporation, Inc. (“Alpine”) and its banking subsidiary, Alpine Bank & Trust Co. (“Alpine Bank”), as more fully described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements. Through the Alpine acquisition, we greatly expanded our commercial and retail banking presence in northern Illinois.

Our principal business activity has been lending to and accepting deposits from individuals, businesses, municipalities and other entities. We have derived income principally from interest ~~earned~~charged on loans ~~and leases~~ and, to a lesser extent, from interest and dividends earned on investment securities. We have also derived income from noninterest sources, such as: fees received in connection with various lending and deposit services; wealth management services; residential mortgage loan originations, sales and servicing; and, from time to time, gains on sales of assets. Our income sources also include Love Funding’s commercial ~~Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”)~~FHA loan origination and servicing income.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on ~~March 6, 2018.~~February 28, 2019. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry.A discussion of these policies can be found in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in the Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There has been one change to our significant accounting policies since December 31, 2018, which is described below. Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reporting of assets and liabilities to prepare the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results may differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods presented herein, have been included. Certain reclassifications of ~~2017~~2018 amounts have been made to conform to the ~~2018~~2019 presentation. Management has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, ~~2018~~2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, ~~2018.~~2019 or any other period.

Leases

The Company determines if a lease is present at the inception of an agreement. Operating leases are capitalized at commencement and are discounted using the Company’s FHLB borrowing rate for a similar term borrowing unless the lease defines an implicit rate within the contract. For operating leases existing prior to January 1, 2019, the rate for the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019 was used.

The right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized on the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. No significant judgments or assumptions were involved in developing the estimated operating lease liabilities as the Company’s operating lease liabilities largely represent future rental expenses associated with operating leases and the borrowing rates are based on publicly available interest rates.

Table of Contents

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Assets held for customers in a fiduciary or agency capacity, other than trust cash on deposit with the Bank, are not assets of the Company and, accordingly, are not included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

~~FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” –~~ In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) amended existing guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers. This amendment supersedes and replaces nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, establishes a new control-based revenue recognition model, changes the basis for deciding when revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific topics and expands and improves disclosures about revenue. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively referred to as Topic 606) on January 1, 2018. Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and investment securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as commercial FHA revenue, residential mortgage banking revenue and gain on sales of investment securities, net are also not in scope of the new guidance. Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest income streams such as wealth management revenue, service charges on deposit accounts, interchange revenue, gain on sales of other real estate owned, and certain other noninterest income streams. The impact of applying this standard to the Company’s consolidated financial statements was determined to be immaterial because the Company’s revenue recognition pattern for revenue streams within the scope of ASU 2014-09 did not change significantly from current practice. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method to adopt ASU 2014-09. We elected to implement this standard using the modified retrospective approach, with the cumulative effect recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings at January 1, 2018. Since the impact of applying the standard was determined to be immaterial, the Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2018. See “~~Note 18 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers” for further discussion on the Company’s policies for revenue sources within the scope of Topic 606.~~

~~FASB ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10) - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” –~~ ~~In January 2016, the FASB issued this standard, which is intended to improve the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. This standard,~~ among other things: (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; (iii) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (iv) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (v) requires an entity to present separately, in other comprehensive income, the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments; (vi) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; and (vii) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-01 on January 1, 2018 did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, the Company now classifies equity securities, at fair value, separately from available for sale securities, at fair value. No impairment was recognized on equity securities as of January 1, 2018. In accordance with (iv) above, the Company measured the fair value of its loan portfolio as of March 31, 2018 using an exit price notion (see “~~Note 14 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments”~~).

FASB ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” – In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).,” ~~This update revises the~~which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and to disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases;” and ASU No. 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements.” The new standard established a ROU model, that requires a lessee to ~~assess how a lease should be classified and provides guidance for lessees and lessors, when presenting right-of-use~~recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance ~~sheet. This update is effective~~sheet for usall leases with a term longer than 12 months. Under the new guidance, leases are classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statement of income. The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019, ~~with early adoption permitted. We have not yet decided whether we will early adopt~~and used the ~~new standard.~~ effective date as our date of initial application.

A modified retrospective ~~transition~~adoption approach is required, applying the new standard to all existing leases in effect at the adoption date and new leases going forward. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for ~~leases existing at, or entered into after,~~dates and periods prior to January 1, 2019. This update also allows lessors to not separate non-lease components from the ~~beginning~~associated lease component if certain conditions are met. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients” permitted by ASU 2018-11, which allows us not to reassess under the ~~earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements, with certain~~new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs.

The new standard also provides practical expedients ~~available. The~~ ~~Company has developed a project plan~~ for ~~evaluating the provisions of the new lease standard, but has not yet determined the overall impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.~~ongoing accounting. The Company ~~is continuing~~elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for our office equipment leases. This means, for those leases that qualify, we did recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition.

At the adoption date, the Company reported increased assets and liabilities of approximately $12.1 million on its consolidated balance sheet as a result of recognizing ROU assets and lease liabilities related to ~~evaluate the pending~~non-cancelable operating lease agreements for office space. The adoption of ~~ASU 2016-02 and~~this guidance did not have a material effect to its ~~impact on the Company’s~~ consolidated ~~financial statements.~~statement of income.

FASB ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” – In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial ~~Instruments.~~Instruments (“CECL”).” The objective of this update is to improve financial reporting by providing timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by

~~Table of Contents~~

financial institutions and other organizations. The ASU requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will use forward-looking information to better understand their credit loss estimates. For public companies that are filers with the SEC, this update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. ~~Early application~~As previously disclosed, the Company has established a cross-functional governance structure, which oversees overall strategy for implementation of Topic 326. Additionally, a working group was formed and has developed a project plan focused on understanding the ASU, researching issues, data requirements, technology solutions and future state processes. The project plan is ~~permitted~~targeting the data and model validation completion during the second quarter of 2019, with parallel processing of our existing allowance for ~~any organization~~loan loss model with CECL prior to implementation. The working group has identified 12 distinct loan portfolios for which a model has been or is in the process of being developed. The Company is focused on completing data and model validation, refining assumptions and continued review of the models. The Company also continues to focus on researching and resolving interpretive accounting issues in the ASU, contemplating various related accounting policies, developing processes and related controls and considering various reporting disclosures. The Company also continues to believe that the adoption of the standard will result in an overall increase in the allowance for loan losses to cover credit losses over the estimated life of the financial assets. However, the magnitude of the increase in its allowance for loan losses at the adoption date will depend upon the nature and characteristics of the portfolio at the adoption date, as well as macroeconomic conditions and forecasts at that time.

FASB ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” – In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 to improve the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The amendment removes certain disclosures required by Topic 820 related to transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; the policy for timing of transfers between levels; the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The update also adds certain disclosure requirements related to changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update become effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, ~~2018~~.2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company ~~has formed a cross functional committee that has overseen~~is currently evaluating the ~~enhancement~~impact of existing technology required to source and model data for the purposes of meeting this standard. The committee is also in the process of selecting a vendor to assist in generating loan level cash flows and disclosures. While the Company generally expects to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, the Company cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact ofadopting the new guidance on ~~the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company is continuing to evaluate the potential impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.~~

~~FASB ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”~~ – In February 2018, ASU 2018-02 was issued following the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which changed the Company’s federal income tax rate from 35% to 21%. This standard allows an entity to elect a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The standard is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018 although early adoption is permitted. ~~The impact of this ASU on the Company’s~~its consolidated financial statements, but it is not ~~material.~~

~~FASB ASU 2017-02, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements~~expected to ~~Accounting for Hedging Activities”~~have a material impact. – In August 2017, the FASB issued this standard the objectives of which are to (1) improve the transparency and understandability of information conveyed to financial statement users about an entity’s risk management activities by better aligning the entity’s financial reporting for hedging relationships with those risk management activities; and (2) reduce the complexity of and simplify the application of hedge accounting by preparers. This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018; early adoption is permitted. The Company currently does not designate any derivative financial instruments as formal hedging relationships, and therefore, does not utilize hedge accounting. However, the Company is currently evaluating this standard to determine whether its provisions will enhance the Company’s ability to employ risk management strategies, while improving the transparency and understanding of those strategies for financial statement users.

For all of the above investment securities, the unrealized losses are generally due to changes in interest rates and ~~continued financial market stress, and~~ unrealized losses are considered to be ~~temporary.~~temporary as the fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach maturity date.

We evaluate securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on a quarterly basis, at a minimum, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. In estimating OTTI losses, we consider the severity and duration of the impairment; the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, which for debt

~~Table of Contents~~

securities considers external credit ratings and recent downgrades; and the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value.

At March 31, ~~2018, 256~~2019, 141 investment securities available for sale had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of ~~1.54%~~1.0% from their amortized cost basis. The unrealized losses relate principally to the fluctuations in the current interest rate environment. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, we consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies and whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred. The Company does not have the intent to sell and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security in an unrealized loss ~~position;~~position prior to recovery in value; therefore, the Company does not consider these securities to be other than temporarily impaired at March 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

For the three months ended March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~2017,~~2018, the Company did not recognize OTTI losses on its investment securities.

The following is a summary of the amortized cost and fair value of the available-for-sale investment securities, ~~as of~~by maturity, at March 31, ~~2018 are shown by expected maturity in the following table.~~2019.

The Company monitors and assesses the credit risk of its loan portfolio using the classes set forth below. These classes also represent the segments by which the Company monitors the performance of its loan portfolio and estimates its allowance for loan losses.

~~Commercial~~—Loans to varying types of businesses, including municipalities, school districts and nonprofit organizations, for the purpose of supporting working capital, operational needs and term financing of equipment. Repayment of such loans is generally provided through operating cash flows of the business. Commercial loans are predominantly secured by equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, and other sources of repayment.

~~Commercial real estate~~—Loans secured by real estate occupied by the borrower for ongoing operations, including loans to borrowers engaged in agricultural production, and non-owner occupied real estate leased to one or more tenants, including commercial office, industrial, special purpose, retail and multi-family residential real estate loans.

~~Construction and land development~~—Secured loans for the construction of business and residential properties. Real estate construction loans often convert to a commercial real estate loan at the completion of the construction period. Secured development loans are made to borrowers for the purpose of infrastructure improvements to vacant land to create finished marketable residential and commercial lots/land. Most land development loans are originated with the intention that the loans will be paid through the sale of developed lots/land by the developers within twelve months of the completion date. Interest reserves may be established on real estate construction loans.

~~Residential real estate~~—Loans secured by residential properties that generally do not qualify for secondary market sale; however, the risk to return and/or overall relationship are considered acceptable to the Company. This category also includes loans whereby consumers utilize equity in their personal residence, generally through a second mortgage, as collateral to secure the loan.

~~Consumer~~—Loans to consumers primarily for the purpose of home improvements and acquiring automobiles, recreational vehicles and boats. Consumer loans consist of relatively small amounts that are spread across many individual borrowers.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Lease financing~~—Indirect financing leases to small businesses for purchases of business equipment. All indirect financing leases require monthly payments, and the weighted average maturity of our leases is less than four years.

Commercial, commercial real estate, and construction and land development loans are collectively referred to as the Company’s commercial loan portfolio, while residential real estate and consumer loans and lease financing receivables are collectively referred to as the Company’s other loan portfolio.

We have extended loans to certain of our directors, executive officers, principal shareholders and their affiliates. These loans were made in the ordinary course of business upon normal terms, including collateralization and interest rates prevailing at the time, and did not involve more than the normal risk of repayment by the borrower. The aggregate loans outstanding to the directors, executive officers, principal shareholders and their affiliates totaled ~~$19.9~~$23.5 million and ~~$22.4~~$26.5 million at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, there were ~~$1.0~~$1.5 million of new loans and other additions, while repayments and other reductions totaled ~~$3.5~~$4.5 million.

Credit Quality Monitoring

The Company maintains loan policies and credit underwriting standards as part of the process of managing credit risk. These standards include making loans generally within the Company’s four main regions, which include eastern, northern and southern Illinois and the St. Louis metropolitan area. Our equipment leasing business ~~based in Denver,~~ provides financing to business customers across the country.

The Company has a loan approval process involving underwriting and individual and group loan approval authorities to consider credit quality and loss exposure at loan origination. The loans in the Company’s commercial loan portfolio are risk rated at origination based on the grading system set forth below. All loan authority is based on the aggregate credit to a borrower and its related entities.

The Company’s consumer loan portfolio is primarily comprised of both secured and unsecured loans that are relatively small and are evaluated at origination on a centralized basis against standardized underwriting criteria. The ongoing measurement of credit quality of the consumer loan portfolio is largely done on an exception basis. If payments are made on schedule, as agreed, then no further monitoring is performed. However, if delinquency occurs, the delinquent loans are turned over to the Company’s Consumer Collections Group for resolution. Credit quality for the entire consumer loan portfolio is measured by the periodic delinquency rate, nonaccrual amounts and actual losses incurred.

Loans in the commercial loan portfolio tend to be larger and more complex than those in the other loan portfolio, and therefore, are subject to more intensive monitoring. All loans in the commercial loan portfolio have an assigned relationship manager, and most borrowers provide periodic financial and operating information that allows the relationship managers to stay abreast of credit quality during the life of the loans. The risk ratings of loans in the commercial loan portfolio are reassessed at least annually, with loans below an acceptable risk rating reassessed more frequently and reviewed by various individuals within the Company at least quarterly.

The Company maintains a centralized independent loan review function that monitors the approval process and ongoing asset quality of the loan portfolio, including the accuracy of loan grades. The Company also maintains an independent appraisal review function that participates in the review of all appraisals obtained by the Company.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company uses a ten grade risk rating system to monitor the ongoing credit quality of its commercial loan portfolio. These loan grades rank the credit quality of a borrower by measuring liquidity, debt capacity, and coverage and payment behavior as shown in the borrower’s financial statements. The risk grades also measure the quality of the borrower’s management and the repayment support offered by any guarantors.

The Company considers all loans with Risk Grades of 1 – 6 as acceptable credit risks and structures and manages such relationships accordingly. Periodic financial and operating data combined with regular loan officer interactions are deemed adequate to monitor borrower performance. Loans with Risk Grades of 7 are considered “watch credits” and the frequency of loan officer contact and receipt of financial data is increased to stay abreast of borrower performance. Loans with Risk Grades of 8 – 10 are considered problematic and require special care. Further, loans with

~~Table of Contents~~

Risk Grades of 7 – 10 are managed and monitored regularly through a number of processes, procedures and committees, including oversight by a loan administration committee comprised of executive and senior management of the Company, which includes highly structured reporting of financial and operating data, intensive loan officer intervention and strategies to exit, as well as potential management by the Company’s Special Assets Group. Loans not graded in the commercial loan portfolio are ~~small loans that are~~ monitored by aging status and payment activity.

The Company evaluates the credit quality of its other loan portfolio based primarily on the aging status of the loan and payment activity. Accordingly, loans on nonaccrual status, ~~any loan~~loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, and loans modified under troubled debt restructurings are considered to be impaired for purposes of credit quality evaluation.

The difference between a loan’s recorded investment and the unpaid principal balance represents: (1) a partial charge-off resulting from a confirmed loss due to the value of the collateral securing the loan being below the loan’s principal balance and management’s assessment that the full collection of the loan balance is not likely and/or (2) payments received on nonaccrual loans that are fully applied to principal on the loan’s recorded investment as compared to being applied to principal and interest on the unpaid customer principal and interest balance. The difference between the recorded investment and the unpaid principal balance on loans was ~~$10.9~~$11.8 million and ~~$12.8~~$11.4 million at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A loan is categorized as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) if a concession is granted to provide for a reduction of either interest or principal due to deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. TDRs can take the form of a reduction of the stated interest rate, splitting a loan into separate loans with market terms on one loan and concessionary terms on the other loans, receipts of assets from a debtor in partial or full satisfaction of a loan, the extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, the reduction of the face amount or maturity of the debt as stated in the instrument or other agreement, the reduction of accrued interest, the release of a personal guarantee in a bankruptcy situation or any other concessionary type of renegotiated debt. Loans are not classified as TDRs when the modification is short-term or results in only an insignificant delay or shortfall in the payments to be received.

Loans modified as TDRs for commercial and commercial real estate loans generally consist of allowing commercial borrowers to defer scheduled principal payments and make interest only payments for a specified period of time at the stated interest rate of the original loan agreement or lower payments due to a modification of the loans’

Table of Contents

contractual terms. TDRs that continue to accrue interest and are greater than $50,000 are individually evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis, and transferred to nonaccrual status when it is probable that any remaining principal and interest payments due on the loan will not be collected in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. TDRs that subsequently default are individually evaluated for impairment at the time of default. The allowance for loan losses on TDRs totaled ~~$207,000~~$446,000 and ~~$240,000~~$557,000 as of March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively. The Company had no unfunded commitments in connection with TDRs at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

The Company’s TDRs are identified on a case-by-case basis in connection with the ongoing loan collection processes. The following table presents TDRs by loan portfolio (excluding PCI loans) as of March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017:~~2018:

~~Purchased Credit Impaired Loans~~

Purchased loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on their purchase date without a carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. PCI loans are purchased loans that have evidence of credit deterioration since origination, and it is probable at the date of acquisition that the Company will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. Evidence of credit quality deterioration as of the purchase date may include factors such as past due and nonaccrual status. The difference between contractually required principal and interest at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the non-accretable difference. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in impairment, which is recorded as provision for loan losses in the consolidated statements of income. Subsequent increases in cash flows result in a reversal of the provision for loan losses to the extent of prior charges or a reclassification of the difference from non-accretable to accretable with a positive impact on interest income. Further, any excess cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan when there is a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows. Accretion recorded as loan interest income totaled $1.2 million and $2.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Accretable yield of PCI loans, or income expected to be collected, iswas as follows:

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company’s loan portfolio is principally comprised of commercial, commercial real estate, construction and land development, residential real estate and consumer loans and lease financing receivables. The principal risks to each category of loans are as follows:

Commercial – The principal risk of commercial loans is that these loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flow of the borrower and secondarily on the collateral underlying the loans. Most often, this collateral consists of accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Inventory and equipment may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business. If the cash flow from business operations is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired. As such, repayment of such loans is often more sensitive than other types of loans to adverse conditions in the general economy.

~~Table of Contents~~

Commercial real estate – As with commercial loans, repayment of commercial real estate loans is often dependent on the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the commercial venture. While commercial real estate loans are collateralized by the borrower’s underlying real estate, foreclosure on such assets may be more difficult than with other types of collateralized loans because of the possible effect the foreclosure would have on the borrower’s business, and property values may tend to be partially based upon the value of the business situated on the property.

Construction and land development – Construction and land development lending involves additional risks not generally present in other types of lending because funds are advanced upon the estimated future value of the project, which is uncertain prior to its completion and at the time the loan is made, and costs may exceed realizable values in declining real estate markets. Moreover, if the estimate of the value of the completed project proves to be overstated or market values or rental rates decline, the collateral may prove to be inadequate security for the repayment of the loan. Additional funds may also be required to complete the project, and the project may have to be held for an unspecified period of time before a disposition can occur.

Residential real estate – The principal risk to residential real estate lending is associated with residential loans not sold into the secondary market. In such cases, the value of the underlying property may have deteriorated as a result of a change in the residential real estate market, and the borrower may have little incentive to repay the loan or continue living in the property. Additionally, in areas with high vacancy rates, reselling the property without substantial loss may be difficult.

Consumer – The repayment of consumer loans is typically dependent on the borrower remaining employed through the life of the loan, as well as the possibility that the collateral underlying the loan, if applicable, may not be adequately maintained by the borrower.

Lease financing – Our ~~indirect~~ financing leases are primarily for business equipment leased to varying types of ~~small businesses.~~businesses, nationwide, for the purchase of business equipment and software. If the cash flow from business operations is reduced, the business’s ability to repay may become impaired.

We recognize revenue from servicing commercial FHA and residential mortgages as earned based on the specific contractual terms. This revenue, along with amortization of and changes in impairment on servicing rights, is reported in commercial FHA revenue and residential mortgage banking revenue in the consolidated statements of income. Mortgage servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. The fair value of

~~Table of Contents~~

mortgage servicing rights and their sensitivity to changes in interest rates is influenced by the mix of the servicing portfolio and characteristics of each segment of the portfolio. The Company’s servicing portfolio consists of the distinct portfolios of government-insured residential and commercial mortgages and conventional residential mortgages. The fair value of our servicing rights is estimated by using a cash flow valuation model which calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows, taking into consideration expected mortgage loan prepayment rates, discount rates, cost to service, contractual servicing fee income, ancillary income, late fees, replacement reserves and other economic factors that are determined based on current market conditions.

At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company serviced residential mortgage loans for others with unpaid principal balances of approximately $861.9 million and $897.6 million, respectively. During the first quarters of 2019 and 2018, the Company sold mortgage servicing rights held for sale of $3.3 million and $10.2 million, respectively. At March 31, 2019, total residential mortgage servicing rights of $257,000 are reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as mortgage servicing rights held for sale.

~~Net gains~~statements of ~~$53,000 and $1.5 million were recognized on derivative instruments for~~income.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, ~~and 2017. Net gains and~~the Company recognized net losses of $74,000 on derivative instruments ~~were recognized~~ in commercial FHA revenue and residential mortgage banking revenue in the consolidated statements of income.

Interest Rate Swap Contracts

The Company entered into ~~derivative instruments related to~~ interest rate swap contracts sold to commercial customers who wish to modify their interest rate sensitivity. These swaps are offset by contracts simultaneously purchased by the Company from other financial dealer institutions with mirror-image terms. Because of the mirror-image terms of the offsetting contracts, in addition to collateral provisions which mitigate the impact of non-performance risk, changes in the fair value subsequent to initial recognition have a minimal effect on earnings. These derivative contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting.

The notional amounts of these customer derivative instruments and the offsetting counterparty derivative instruments were ~~$9.9~~$9.4 million and $9.5 million at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~$10.0 million at~~ December 31, ~~2017.~~2018, respectively. The fair value of the customer derivative instruments and the offsetting counterparty derivative instruments was ~~$219,000~~$18,000 and $145,000 at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~$17,000 at~~ December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively, which are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which are classified as secured borrowings, generally mature within one to four days from the transaction date. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction, which represents the amount of the Bank’s obligation. The Bank may be required to provide additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities. Investment securities with a carrying amount of ~~$129.7~~$123.4 million and ~~$157.2~~$132.2 million at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively, were pledged for securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

In May 2017, the Company entered into a loan agreement with another bank for a revolving line of credit in the original principal amount of up to $10.0 million and a term loan in the original principal amount of $40.0 million. The ~~revolving line of credit matures on May 24, 2018 and has a variable rate of interest equal to one-month LIBOR plus 2.00%. There were no advances made on the line of credit as of March 31, 2018. The~~ term loan matures on May 25, 2020 and has a variable rate of interest equal to one-month LIBOR plus 2.25%. Beginning September 1, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company was required to ~~begin making~~make quarterly principal and interest payments on the term loan of $1.4 million with the remaining principal and any unpaid interest due at maturity. The loan is unsecured with a negative pledge of shares

~~Table of Contents~~

of the ~~Company’s~~Bank’s common stock. The loan agreement contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio, a minimum adjusted loan loss reserves to nonperforming loans ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum percentage of nonperforming assets to tangible capital. At March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company was in compliance with each of these financial covenants.

The ~~Bank’s~~Company’s advances from the FHLB are collateralized by a blanket collateral agreement of qualifying mortgage and home equity line of credit loans and certain commercial real estate loans totaling approximately ~~$2.01~~$2.11 billion and ~~$1.86~~$2.22 billion at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively.

Note 13 – Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are calculated utilizing the two‑class method. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock ~~awards using~~awards. The diluted earnings per share computation for the ~~treasury stock method (outstanding~~three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 excluded antidilutive stock options of 97,628 and ~~unvested restricted stock) and~~31,259, respectively, because the exercise prices of these stock options exceeded the average

Note 14 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

~~ASC 820,~~ ~~Fair Value Measurements,~~ ~~defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value including a three‑level valuation hierarchy, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.~~ Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date reflecting assumptions that a market participant would use when pricing an asset or liability. The hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.

Level 2: ~~Observable~~Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market ~~data, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.~~data.

Level 3: ~~Inputs to~~Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a ~~valuation methodology~~company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that ~~is unobservable, supported by little~~market participants would use in pricing an asset or no market activity, and significant to the fair value measurement. These valuation methodologies generally include pricing models, discounted cash flow models, or a determination of fair value that requires significant management judgment or estimation. This category also includes observable inputs from a pricing service not corroborated by observable market data, such as pricing corporate securities.liability.

Fair value is used on a recurring basis to account for securities available for sale and derivative instruments, and for financial assets for which the Company has elected the fair value option. For assets and liabilities measured at the lower of cost or fair value, the fair value measurement criteria may or may not be met during a reporting period and such measurements are therefore considered “nonrecurring” for purposes of disclosing our fair value measurements. Fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to adjust carrying values for impaired loans and other real estate owned and also to record impairment on certain assets, such as mortgage servicing rights, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets.

~~Table of Contents~~

Assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value, including financial assets for which the Company has elected the fair value option, on a recurring and nonrecurring basis as of March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, are summarized below:

Mortgage Servicing Rights. When mortgage loans are sold with servicing rights retained, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value with the effect recorded in net gain on sales of loans in the consolidated statements of operations. Fair value is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts, when available, or, alternatively, is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.

~~The Company utilizes the amortization method to subsequently measure the carrying value of its servicing rights.~~ In accordance with GAAP, the Company must record impairment charges on mortgage servicing rights on a non-recurring basis when the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. The fair value of our servicing rights is estimated by using a cash flow valuation model, which calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows, taking into consideration expected mortgage loan prepayment rates, discount rates, servicing costs, replacement reserves and other economic factors which are estimated based on current market conditions. The determination of fair value of servicing rights relies upon Level 3 inputs. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights was ~~$56.4~~$53.0 million and $53.4 million at ~~both~~ March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017.~~2018, respectively.

Impaired loans. Impaired loans are measured and recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. All of our nonaccrual loans and restructured loans are considered impaired and are reviewed individually for the amount of impairment, if any. Most of our loans are collateral dependent and, accordingly, we measure impaired loans based on the estimated fair value of such collateral. The fair value of each loan’s collateral is generally based on estimated market prices from an independently prepared appraisal, which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidating such collateral; such valuation inputs result in a nonrecurring fair value measurement that is categorized as a Level 2 measurement. When adjustments are made to an appraised value to reflect various factors such as the age of the appraisal or known changes in the market or the collateral, such valuation inputs are considered unobservable and the fair value measurement is categorized as a Level 3 measurement. The impaired loans categorized as Level 3 also include unsecured loans and other secured loans whose fair values are based significantly on unobservable inputs such as the strength of a guarantor, cash flows discounted at the effective loan rate, and management’s judgment.

ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments and the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate such fair values. Additionally, certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments are excluded from the applicable disclosure requirements.

The Company has elected the fair value option for newly originated residential and commercial loans held for sale. These loans are intended for sale and are hedged with derivative instruments. We have elected the fair value option to mitigate accounting mismatches in cases where hedge accounting is complex and to achieve operational simplification.

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-01, effective January 1, 2018. Adoption of the standard resulted in the use of an exit price rather than an entrance price to determine the fair value of loans, excluding loans held-for-sale, time deposits, FHLB and other borrowings, subordinated debt, and trust preferred debentures as of March 31, 2018. Although the exit price notion represents the value that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, the actual prices received for a sale of assets or paid to transfer liabilities could be different from the exit price disclosed.

Note 15 – Commitments, Contingencies and Credit Risk

In the normal course of business, there are outstanding various contingent liabilities such as claims and legal actions, which are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. No material losses are anticipated as a result of these actions or claims.

We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance‑sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement we have in particular classes of financial instruments.

Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank used the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The commitments are principally tied to variable rates. Loan commitments as of March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017~~2018 were as follows:


	March 31,		December 31,		March 31,		December 31,

The Company sells residential mortgage loans to investors in the normal course of business. Residential mortgage loans sold to others are predominantly conventional residential first lien mortgages originated under our usual underwriting procedures, and are sold on a nonrecourse basis, primarily to government-sponsored enterprises (“GSEs”). The Company’s agreements to sell residential mortgage loans in the normal course of business usually require certain representations and warranties on the underlying loans sold, related to credit information, loan documentation, collateral, and insurability. Subsequent to being sold, if a material underwriting deficiency or documentation defect is discovered, the Company may be obligated to repurchase the loan or reimburse the GSEs for losses incurred. The make-whole requests and any related risk of loss under the representations and warranties are largely driven by borrower performance. The Company establishes a mortgage repurchase liability ~~related~~ to ~~these events that~~ reflect management’s estimate of losses on loans for which the Company could have a repurchase obligation based on ~~a combination of factors. Such factors incorporate~~ the volume of loans sold in ~~2018~~2019 and years prior, borrower default expectations, historical investor repurchase demand and appeals success rates, and estimated loss severity. Loans repurchased from investors are initially recorded at fair value, which becomes the Company’s new accounting basis. Any difference between the loan’s fair value and the outstanding principal amount is charged or credited to the mortgage repurchase liability, as appropriate. Subsequent to repurchase, such loans are carried in loans receivable. ~~The Company incurred losses as~~As a result of make-whole requests and loan repurchases, the Company incurred losses totaling $20,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. There were no losses ~~incurred~~as a result of make-whole requests and loan repurchases for the three months ended March 31, ~~2017.~~2019. The liability for unresolved repurchase demands totaled ~~$714,000~~$289,000 and ~~$371,000~~$492,000 at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively.

Note 1819 – Revenue From ~~contracts~~Contracts with ~~customers~~Customers

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) and all subsequent ASUs that modified Topic 606. As stated in “Note 2–Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” the implementation of the new standard did not have a material impact on the measurement or recognition of revenue. Since the impact of applying the standard was determined to be immaterial, the Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with previous GAAP.

Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and investment securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as commercial FHA revenue, residential mortgage banking revenue and gain on sales of investment securities, net are also not in scope of the new guidance. Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest income streams such as wealth management revenue, service charges on deposit accounts, interchange revenue, gain on sales of other real estate owned, and certain other noninterest income streams. The recognition of revenue associated with these noninterest income streams did not change significantly from current practice upon adoption of Topic 606. The noninterest income streams considered in-scope by Topic 606 are discussed below.

Wealth Management Revenue

Wealth management revenue is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and other customer assets. The Company also earns investment advisory fees through its SEC registered investment advisory subsidiary. The Company’s performance obligation in both of these instances is generally satisfied over time and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon the month-end market value of the assets under

~~Table of Contents~~

management and contractually determined fee schedules. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to each customer’s account. The Company does not earn performance-based incentives. Optional services such as real estate sales and tax return preparation services are also available to existing trust and asset management customers. The Company’s performance obligation for these transactional-based services is generally satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time (i.e., as incurred). Payment is received shortly after services are rendered. Fees generated from transactions executed by the Company’s third party broker dealer are remitted by them to the Company on a monthly basis for that month’s transactional activity.

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts

Service charges on deposit accounts consist of fees received under depository agreements with customers to provide access to deposited funds, serve as custodian of deposited funds, and when applicable, pay interest on deposits. These service charges primarily include non-sufficient fund fees and other account related service charges. Non-sufficient fund fees are earned when a depositor presents an item for payment in excess of available funds, and the Company, at its discretion, provides the necessary funds to complete the transaction. The Company generates other account related service charge revenue by providing depositors proper safeguard and remittance of funds as well as by delivering optional services for depositors, such as check imaging or treasury management, that are performed upon the depositor’s request. The Company’s performance obligation for the proper safeguard and remittance of funds, monthly account analysis and any other monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service

Table of Contents

is provided. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is typically received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to a customer’s account.

Interchange Revenue

Interchange revenue includes debit / credit card income and ATM user fees. Card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned for standing ready to authorize and providing settlement on card transactions processed through the MasterCard interchange network. The levels and structure of interchange rates are set by MasterCard and can vary based on cardholder purchase volumes. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with completion of the Company’s performance obligation, the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder withdraws funds from a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder withdraws funds from a Company ATM. The Company satisfies its performance obligation for each transaction at the point in time when the ATM withdrawal is processed.

Gain on Sales of Other Real Estate Owned

The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of other real estate owned ~~(OREO)~~(“OREO”) when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When the Company finances the sale of OREO to a buyer, the Company assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Company adjusts the transaction price and related gain or loss on sale if a significant financing component is present.

Other Noninterest Income

The other noninterest income revenue streams within the scope of Topic 606 consist of merchant services revenue, safe deposit box rentals, wire transfer fees, paper statement fees, check printing commissions, and other noninterest related fees. Revenue from the Company’s merchant services business consists principally of transaction and account management fees charged to merchants for the electronic processing of transactions. These fees are net of interchange fees paid to the credit card issuing bank, card company assessments, and revenue sharing amounts. Account management fees are considered earned at the time the merchant’s transactions are processed or other services are performed. Fees related to the other components of other noninterest income within the scope of Topic 606 are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied and related revenue recognized, at the point in time the customer uses the selected service to execute a transaction.

Contract Balances

A contract asset balance occurs when an entity performs a service for a customer before the customer pays consideration (resulting in a contract receivable) or before payment is due (resulting in a contract asset). A contract liability balance is an entity’s obligation to transfer a service to a customer for which the entity has already received payment (or payment is due) from the customer. The Company’s noninterest revenue streams are largely based on transactional activity, or standard month-end revenue accruals such as asset management fees based on month-end market values. Consideration is often received immediately or shortly after the Company satisfies its performance obligation and revenue is recognized. The Company does not typically enter into long-term revenue contracts with customers, and therefore, does not experience significant contract balances. As of March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company did not have any significant contract balances.

Contract Acquisition Costs

In connection with the adoption of Topic 606, an entity is required to capitalize, and subsequently amortize into expense, certain incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if these costs are expected to be recovered. The incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that an entity incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained (for example, sales commission). The Company utilizes the practical expedient which allows entities to immediately expense contract acquisition costs when the asset that would have resulted from capitalizing these costs would have been amortized in one year or less. Upon adoption of Topic 606, the Company did not capitalize any contract acquisition costs.

Note 20 – Subsequent Events

Pending Acquisition – HomeStar Financial Group, Inc.

On April 2, 2019, the Company announced it had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire HomeStar Financial Group, Inc. (“HomeStar”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, HomeStar Bank and Financial Services (“HomeStar Bank”) for estimated total consideration of $9.9 million, consisting of 405,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, plus cash in an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which HomeStar’s adjusted shareholders’ equity prior to closing exceeds $10.4 million. HomeStar Bank is headquartered in Manteno, Illinois, and operates 5 full-service banking centers in northern Illinois. As of December 31, 2018, HomeStar Bank had total assets of $375.4 million, net loans of $222.7 million and total deposits of $333.1 million. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, prior to closing, HomeStar’s outstanding trust preferred securities and subordinated debentures plus accrued interest will be repurchased or paid off with approximately $23.5 million of cash provided by the Company, which amount represents a discount to the outstanding obligations on these securities. Additionally, prior to closing, HomeStar Bank will sell its interest in both its insurance agency and title company subsidiaries. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2019, subject to regulatory approval, the approval of HomeStar’s shareholders, the completion of the trust preferred securities transactions, and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates are based upon historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under current circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The estimates and judgments that management believes have the most effect on the Company’s reported financial position and results of operations are set forth in “Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2017.~~2018. There have been no significant changes in critical accounting policies or the assumptions and judgments utilized in applying these policies since December 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

Purchased ~~Credit‑Impaired (“PCI”)~~ Loans. Our net interest margin benefits from favorable changes in expected cash flows on our PCI loans and from accretion income associated with purchase accounting discounts established on the non-PCI loans included in our acquisitions. Our reported net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was 3.73% and ~~2017 was~~ 3.69% ~~and 3.87%~~, respectively.

Interest income and average rates for tax‑exempt loans and securities are presented on a tax‑equivalent basis, assuming federal income tax rates of 21% and 35% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Tax-equivalent adjustments totaled $394,000 and $662,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

~~Average loan balances include nonaccrual loans. Interest income on loans includes amortization of deferred loan fees, net of deferred loan costs.~~

~~(3)~~

Net interest margin during the periods presented represents: (i) the difference between interest income on interest‑earning assets and the interest expense on interest‑bearing liabilities, divided by (ii) average interest‑earning assets for the period.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Interest Rates and Operating Interest Differential~~

Increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest‑earning assets and interest‑bearing liabilities, as well as changes in average interest rates. The following table shows the effect that these factors had on the interest earned on our interest‑earning assets and the interest incurred on our interest‑bearing liabilities. The effect of changes in volume is determined by multiplying the change in volume by the previous period’s average rate. Similarly, the effect of rate changes is calculated by multiplying the change in average rate by the previous period’s volume. Changes which are not due solely to volume or rate have been allocated proportionally to the change due to volume and the change due to rate. Interest income and average rates for tax‑exempt loans and securities were calculated on a tax‑equivalent basis, assuming federal income tax rates of 21% and 35% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Net Interest Income. Our primary source of revenue is net interest income, which is the difference between interest income from interest-earning assets (primarily loans and securities) and interest expense of funding sources (primarily interest‑bearing deposits and borrowings). Net interest income is impacted by the volume of interest‑earning assets and related funding sources, as well as changes in the levels of interest rates. Noninterest‑bearing sources of funds, such as demand deposits and shareholders’ equity, also support earning assets. The impact of the noninterest‑bearing sources of funds is captured in the net interest margin, which is calculated as net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. The net interest margin is presented on a tax-equivalent basis, which means that tax‑free interest income has been adjusted to a pretax-equivalent income, assuming a federal income tax ~~rates~~rate of 21% ~~and 35%~~ for the three months ended March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~2017, respectively.~~2018.

In the first quarter of ~~2018, we generated~~2019, net interest income (on a tax-equivalent basis) was $46.1 million, an increase of $7.6 million, or 19.6%, from $38.6 million of net interest income ~~on a~~we generated for the comparative prior year quarter. The tax-equivalent ~~basis, which was an increase of $10.5 million, or 37.2% from the $28.1 million of~~ net interest ~~income we produced on a tax-equivalent basis~~margin was 3.73% for the first quarter of 2019 compared to 3.69% in the first quarter of ~~2017. This increase in net~~2018.

Average Balance Sheet, Interest and Yield/Rate Analysis.The following table presents average balance sheet information, interest income, ~~was primarily due to a $14.4 million increase in~~ interest expense and the corresponding average yields earned and rates paid for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The average balances are principally daily averages and, for loans, include both performing and nonperforming balances. Interest income on ~~a tax-equivalent basis, offset in part by a $3.9 million increase in interest expense. The increase in interest income was primarily due to~~loans includes the ~~addition~~effects of ~~loans from the Centrue~~discount accretion and Alpine acquisitions. The increase in interest expense resulted in part from additional interest-bearing liabilities from Centrue and Alpine.

Interest Rates and Operating Interest Differential.Increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest‑earning assets and interest‑bearing liabilities, as well as changes in average interest rates. The following table shows the effect that these factors had on the interest earned on our interest‑earning assets and the interest incurred on our interest‑bearing liabilities. The effect of changes in volume is determined by multiplying the change in volume by the previous period’s average rate. Similarly, the effect of rate changes is calculated by multiplying the change in average rate by the previous period’s volume. Changes which are not due solely to volume or rate have been allocated proportionally to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Interest Income. ~~On a tax-equivalent basis,~~The $11.5 million, or 27.6%, increase in interest income on loans ~~increased 45.7%~~(on a tax-equivalent basis) for the first quarter of 2019 was primarily due to ~~$41.6~~a 18.7% increase in the average balance of loans outstanding combined with a 37 basis point increase in the average yield. The average balance increase was primarily driven by the addition of $786.2 million of loans from Alpine in February 2018. The increase in the average yield on loans was mainly due to the impact of higher market interest rates. Accretion income associated with accounting discounts established on loans acquired totaled $2.5 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $28.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. An increase of 47.3% in the average balance of loans outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017, was primarily driven by the addition of $679.6 million of loans from Centrue in the second quarter of 20172019 and ~~$790.9 million of loans from Alpine in the first quarter of 2018.~~

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Income Tax Expense.~~ Income tax expense was $1.4 million and $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Effective tax rates were 43.2% and 26.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Although the federal corporate income tax rate decreased to 21% beginning in 2018 from 35%, ourThe effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2018 was negatively impacted by the Company recording additional income tax expense of $0.7 million for the revaluation of net deferred state tax liabilities as a result of the Alpine acquisition.

The principal categories of our loan portfolio are discussed below:

Table of Contents

Commercial loans. We provide a mix of variable and fixed rate commercial loans. The loans are typically made to small‑ and medium‑sized manufacturing, wholesale, retail and service businesses for working capital needs, business expansions and farm operations. Commercial loans generally include lines of credit and loans with maturities of five years or less. The loans are generally made with business operations as the primary source of repayment, but may also include collateralization by inventory, accounts receivable and equipment, and generally include personal guarantees.

~~Table of Contents~~

Commercial real estate loans. Our commercial real estate loans consist of both real estate occupied by the borrower for ongoing operations and non-owner occupied real estate properties. The real estate securing our existing commercial real estate loans includes a wide variety of property types, such as owner occupied offices, warehouses and production facilities, office buildings, hotels, mixed-use residential and commercial facilities, retail centers, multifamily properties and assisted living facilities. Our commercial real estate loan portfolio also includes farmland loans. Farmland loans are generally made to a borrower actively involved in farming rather than to passive investors.

Construction and land development loans. Our construction and land development loans are comprised of residential construction, commercial construction and land acquisition and development loans. Interest reserves are generally established on real estate construction loans.

Residential real estate loans. Our residential real estate loans consist of residential properties that generally do not qualify for secondary market sale.

Consumer loans. Our consumer loans include direct personal loans, indirect automobile loans, lines of credit and installment loans originated through home improvement specialty retailers and contractors. Personal loans are generally secured by automobiles, boats and other types of personal property and are made on an installment basis.

Lease financing. Our ~~custom~~ equipment leasing business provides ~~indirect~~ financing leases to varying types of ~~small~~ businesses, nationwide, for purchases of business equipment and software. ~~All indirect~~The financing ~~leases~~is secured by first priority interest in the financed asset and generally require monthly ~~payments, and the weighted average maturity of our leases is less than four years.~~payments.

Loan Quality

We use what we believe is a comprehensive methodology to monitor credit quality and prudently manage credit concentration within our loan portfolio. Our underwriting policies and practices govern the risk profile, ~~and~~ credit and geographic concentration for our loan portfolio. We also have what we believe to be a comprehensive methodology to monitor these credit quality standards, including a risk classification system that identifies potential problem loans based on risk characteristics by loan type as well as the early identification of deterioration at the individual loan level. In addition to our allowance for loan losses, our purchase discounts on acquired loans provide additional protections against credit losses.

Discounts on PCI Loans. PCI loans are loans that have evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable at the date of acquisition that we will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. These loans are recorded at estimated fair value on their purchase date without a carryover of the related

Table of Contents

allowance for loan losses. At March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, we had PCI loans totaling ~~$53.1~~$36.9 million and ~~$22.5~~$43.0 million, respectively.

In determining the fair value of purchased credit‑impaired loans at acquisition, we first determine the contractually required payments due, which represent the total undiscounted amount of all uncollected principal and interest payments, adjusted for the effect of estimated prepayments. We then estimate the undiscounted cash flows we expect to collect. We incorporate several key assumptions to estimate cash flows expected to be collected, including

~~Table of Contents~~

probability of default rates, loss given default assumptions and the amount and timing of prepayments. We calculate fair value by discounting the estimated cash flows we expect to collect using an observable market rate of interest, when available, adjusted for factors that a market participant would consider in determining fair value. We have aggregated certain credit‑impaired loans acquired in the same transaction into pools based on common risk characteristics. A pool is accounted for as one asset with a single composite interest rate and an aggregate fair value and expected cash flows.

The difference between contractually required payments due and the cash flows expected to be collected, considering the impact of prepayments, is referred to as the nonaccretable difference. The nonaccretable difference, which is neither accreted into income nor recorded on our consolidated balance sheet, reflects estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loans. The excess of cash flows expected to be collected over the estimated fair value of PCI loans is referred to as the accretable yield. This amount is not recorded on our consolidated balance sheet, but is accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the loans, or pool of loans, using the effective yield method. The outstanding customer balance for PCI loans totaled ~~$73.6~~$50.5 million and ~~$32.8~~$56.9 million as of March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively.

Subsequent to acquisition, we periodically evaluate our estimates of cash flows expected to be collected. These evaluations, performed quarterly, require the continued use of key assumptions and estimates, similar to the initial estimate of fair value. Subsequent changes in the estimated cash flows expected to be collected may result in changes in the accretable yield and nonaccretable difference or reclassifications between accretable yield and the nonaccretable difference. Decreases in expected cash flows due to further credit deterioration will result in an impairment charge to the provision for loan losses, resulting in an increase to the allowance for loan losses and a reclassification from accretable yield to nonaccretable difference. Increases in expected cash flows due to credit improvements will result in an increase in the accretable yield through a reclassification from the nonaccretable difference or as a reduction in the allowance for loan losses to the extent established on specific pools subsequent to acquisition. The adjusted accretable yield is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loan, or pool of loans.

The following table shows changes in the accretable yield for PCI loans for the three months ended March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~2017:~~2018:

As of March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the balance of accretable discounts on our PCI loan portfolio was ~~$7.2~~$11.1 million compared to ~~$5.7~~$7.2 million at December 31, ~~2017.~~2018. We may not accrete the full amount of these discounts into interest income in future periods if the assets to which these discounts are applied do not perform according to our current expectations.

We have also recorded accretable discounts in purchase accounting for loans that are not considered PCI loans. Similar to the way in which we employ the fair value methodology for PCI loans, we consider expected prepayments and estimate the amount and timing of undiscounted cash flows in order to determine the accretable discount for non-PCI loans. Such discounts are accreted into income on a level yield basis.

Represents the percentage of the allowance to total loans in the respective category.

The allowance and the balance of nonaccretable discounts represent our estimate of probable and reasonably estimable credit losses inherent in loans held for investment as of the respective balance sheet date. We assess the appropriateness of our allowance for non-PCI loans separately from our allowance for PCI loans.

The allowance for loan losses was ~~$17.7~~$23.1 million at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 compared to ~~$16.4~~$20.9 million at December 31, ~~2017.~~2018. The increase in the allowance at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 compared to December 31, ~~2017~~2018 was mainly attributable to the downgrade of one commercial real estate loan ~~growth~~ and ~~an increase in specific reserves related to two commercial loans that went on nonaccrual in March 2018.~~one residential real estate loan during the first quarter of 2019.

Individual loans considered to be uncollectible are charged off against the allowance. Factors used in determining the amount and timing of charge-offs on loans include consideration of the loan type, length of delinquency, sufficiency of collateral value, lien priority and the overall financial condition of the borrower. Collateral value is determined using updated appraisals and/or other market comparable information. Charge-offs are generally taken on loans once the impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary. Recoveries on loans previously charged off are added to the allowance. Net charge-offs to average loans were ~~0.09%~~0.10% and ~~0.28%~~0.13% for the three months ended March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and the year ended December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively.

Allowance for non‑PCI loans. Our methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for non-PCI loans includes a general allowance for performing loans, which are grouped based on similar characteristics, and a specific allowance for individual impaired loans or loans considered by management to be in a ~~high risk~~high-risk category. General allowances are established based on a number of factors, including historical loss rates, an assessment of portfolio trends and conditions, accrual status and economic conditions.

For commercial and commercial real estate loans, a specific allowance may be assigned to individual loans based on an impairment analysis. Loans are considered impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The amount of impairment is based on an analysis of the most probable source of repayment, including the present value of the loan's expected future cash flows and the estimated market value or the fair value of the underlying collateral. Interest income on impaired loans is accrued as earned, unless the loan is placed on nonaccrual status.

Allowance for PCI loans. PCI loans are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition, with the estimated fair value including a component for estimated credit losses. An allowance related to PCI loans may be recorded subsequent to acquisition if a PCI loan pool experiences a decrease in expected cash flows as compared to the expected cash flows projected in the previous quarter. Loans considered to be uncollectible are initially charged off against the specific loan pool’s non‑accretable difference. When the pool’s non‑accretable difference has been fully utilized, uncollectible amounts are charged off against the corresponding allowance.

Provision for Loan Losses. In determining the allowance and the related provision for loan losses, we consider three principal elements: (i) valuation allowances based upon probable losses identified during the review of impaired commercial, commercial real estate, and construction and land development loans, (ii) allocations, by loan classes, on loan portfolios based on historical loan loss experience and qualitative factors, and (iii) valuation allowances on PCI loan pools based on decreases in expected cash flows. Provisions for loan losses are charged to operations to adjust the total allowance to a level deemed appropriate by us.

Impaired Loans. The following table sets forth our nonperforming assets by asset categories as of the dates indicated. Impaired loans include nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest and loans modified under troubled debt restructurings. The balances of impaired loans reflect the net investment in these assets, including deductions for purchase discounts. PCI loans are excluded from nonperforming status because we expect to fully collect their new carrying values, which reflect significant purchase discounts. If our expectation of reasonably estimable future cash flows from PCI loans deteriorates, the loans may be classified as nonaccrual loans and interest income will not be recognized until the timing and amount of future cash flows can be reasonably estimated.

We use a ten grade risk rating system to categorize and determine the credit risk of our loans. Potential problem loans include loans with a risk grade of 7, which are "special mention," and loans with a risk grade of 8, which are "substandard" loans that are not considered to be impaired. These loans generally require more frequent loan officer contact and receipt of financial data to closely monitor borrower performance. Potential problem loans are managed and monitored regularly through a number of processes, procedures and committees, including oversight by a loan administration committee comprised of executive officers and other members of the Bank's senior management team.

The following table presents the recorded investment of potential problem commercial loans (excluding PCI loans) by loan category at the dates indicated:

Short‑Term Borrowings. In addition to deposits, we use short‑term borrowings, such as federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, as a source of funds to meet the daily liquidity needs of our customers and fund growth in earning assets. Short‑term borrowings were ~~$130.7~~$115.8 million at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 compared to ~~$156.1~~$124.2 million at December 31, ~~2017.

Capital Resources and Liquidity Management

Capital Resources. Shareholders’ equity is influenced primarily by earnings, dividends, issuances and redemptions of common stock and changes in accumulated other comprehensive income caused primarily by fluctuations in unrealized holding gains or losses, net of taxes, on available‑for‑sale investment securities.

Shareholders’ equity increased ~~$135.8~~$15.6 million to ~~$585.4~~$624.2 million at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 as compared to December 31, ~~2017.~~2018. The increase in shareholders’ equity was due primarily to ~~$139.9~~$5.6 million ~~of common equity issued for the Alpine acquisition. During the first three months of 2018, we generated net income of $1.8 million and declared $4.2 million to common shareholders. In addition,~~increase in accumulated other comprehensive income ~~decreased $2.5~~and $14.0 million ~~during the first three months~~ of ~~2018.~~

~~Table~~net income, partially offset by $5.8 million of ~~Contents~~

~~In conjunction with the acquisition of Alpine, the Company paid $33.3 million in cash and issued 4,463,200 shares of Midland~~declared dividends to common stock upon closing of the transaction on February 28, 2018. Additionally, the Company issued $40.0 million aggregate principal amount of subordinated debentures in October 2017, the proceeds of which were used to fund the payment of the cash portion of the merger consideration.shareholders.

Liquidity Management. Liquidity refers to the measure of our ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers, while at the same time meeting our operating, capital and strategic cash flow needs, all at a reasonable cost. We continuously monitor our liquidity position to ensure that assets and liabilities are managed in a manner that will meet all short‑term and long‑term cash requirements. We manage our liquidity position to meet the daily cash flow needs of customers, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives of our shareholders.

Integral to our liquidity management is the administration of short‑term borrowings. To the extent we are unable to obtain sufficient liquidity through core deposits, we seek to meet our liquidity needs through wholesale funding or other borrowings on either a short‑ or long‑term basis.

The Company is a corporation separate and apart from the Bank and, therefore, must provide for its own liquidity. The Company’s main source of funding is dividends declared and paid to us by the Bank. There are statutory, regulatory and debt covenant limitations that affect the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company. Management believes that these limitations will not impact our ability to meet our ongoing short‑term cash obligations.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking regulators. Failure to meet regulatory capital requirements may result in certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for “prompt corrective action”, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off‑balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting policies.

The Dodd‑Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Basel III regulatory capital reforms (the “Basel III Rule”) have established capital standards for banks and bank holding companies. The table below summarizes the minimum capital requirements applicable to us under the Basel III Rule.

In addition to the minimum regulatory capital requirements set forth in the table above, the Basel III Rule implemented a “capital conservation buffer” that is added to the minimum requirements for capital adequacy purposes.

~~Table of Contents~~

A banking organization that fails to meet the required amount of the capital conservation buffer will be subject to limits on capital distributions (e.g., dividends, stock buybacks, etc.) and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. For community banks, the capital conservation buffer requirement is being phased in over a three-year period beginning on January 1, 2016. The capital conservation buffer in 2016 was 0.625%, was 1.25% in 2017, is 1.875% in 2018 and will be fully phased in at 2.5% on January 1, 2019.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk. Market risk represents the risk of loss due to changes in market values of assets and liabilities. We incur market risk in the normal course of business through exposures to market interest rates, equity prices, and credit spreads. We have identified two primary sources of market risk: interest rate risk and price risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Overview. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and value arising from changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from timing differences in the repricings and maturities of interest‑earning assets and interest‑bearing liabilities (reprice risk), changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities arising from embedded options, such as borrowers’ ability to prepay residential mortgage loans at any time and depositors’ ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity (option risk), changes in the shape of the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a nonparallel fashion (yield curve risk), and changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries and LIBOR (basis risk).

Our board of ~~directors’ Asset‑Liability Committee (“ALCO”) establishes~~directors established broad policy limits with respect to interest rate risk. ~~ALCO~~Enterprise Risk Committee (“ERC”) establishes specific operating guidelines within the parameters of the board of directors’ policies. In general, we seek to minimize the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income and the economic

~~Table of Contents~~

values of assets and liabilities. Our ~~ALCO~~ERC meets quarterly to monitor the level of interest rate risk sensitivity to ensure compliance with the board of directors’ approved risk limits.

Interest rate risk management is an active process that encompasses monitoring loan and deposit flows complemented by investment and funding activities. Effective management of interest rate risk begins with understanding the dynamic characteristics of assets and liabilities and determining the appropriate interest rate risk posture given business forecasts, management objectives, market expectations, and policy constraints.

An asset sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short‑term interest rates is expected to generate higher net interest income, as rates earned on our interest‑earning assets would reprice upward more quickly than rates paid on our interest‑bearing liabilities, thus expanding our net interest margin. Conversely, a liability sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short‑term interest rates is expected to generate lower net interest income, as rates paid on our interest‑bearing liabilities would reprice upward more quickly than rates earned on our interest‑earning assets, thus compressing our net interest margin.

Income Simulation and Economic Value Analysis. Interest rate risk measurement is calculated and reported to the ~~ALCO~~ERC at least quarterly. The information reported includes period‑end results and identifies any policy limits exceeded, along with an assessment of the policy limit breach and the action plan and timeline for resolution, mitigation, or assumption of the risk.

We use two approaches to model interest rate risk: Net Interest Income at Risk (“NII at Risk”) and Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”). Under NII at Risk, net interest income is modeled utilizing various assumptions for assets, liabilities, and derivatives. EVE measures the period end market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities and the change in this value as rates change. EVE is a period end measurement.

The following table shows NII at Risk at the dates indicated:


	Net Interest Income Sensitivity									Net Interest Income Sensitivity

Tolerance levels for risk management require the development of remediation plans to maintain residual risk within tolerance if simulation modeling demonstrates that a parallel 100 basis point increase or 100 basis point decrease in interest rates over the twelve months would adversely affect net interest income over the same period by more than the tolerance level.
