Note 1: Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Bridgewater Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) is a financial holding company whose operations consist of the ownership of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Bridgewater Bank (the “Bank”) and Bridgewater Risk Management, Inc. The Bank commenced operations in 2005 and provides retail and commercial loan and deposit services, principally to customers within the Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI Metropolitan Statistical Area. In 2008, the Bank formed BWB Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, for the purpose of holding repossessed property. In 2018, the Bank formed Bridgewater Investment Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, for the purpose of holding certain municipal securities and to engage in municipal lending activities.

Bridgewater Risk Management, ~~a subsidiary of the Company,~~Inc. was incorporated in December 2016 as a wholly owned insurance company. It insures the Company and its subsidiaries against certain risks unique to the operations of the Company and for which insurance may not be currently available or economically feasible in today’s insurance marketplace. Bridgewater Risk Management pools resources with several other insurance company subsidiaries of financial institutions to spread a limited amount of risk among themselves.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity and consolidated statements of cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March ~~11, 2021.~~8, 2022.

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the amounts of the Company, the Bank, with locations in Bloomington, Greenwood, Minneapolis (2), St. Louis Park, Orono, and St. Paul, Minnesota, BWB Holdings, LLC, Bridgewater Investment Management, Inc., and Bridgewater Risk Management, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Information available which could affect judgements includes, but is not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy, including rising inflation and ongoing COVID-19 pandemic related changes, and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.

Table of Contents

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term include the determination of the allowance for loan losses, calculation of deferred tax assets, fair value of financial instruments, and investment securities impairment.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. In addition, even if the Company complies with the greater obligations of public companies that are not emerging growth companies, the Company may avail itself of the reduced requirements applicable to emerging growth companies from time to time in the future, so long as the Company is an emerging growth company. The Company will continue to be an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (1) the end of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common equity securities under the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, which was declared effective by the SEC on March 13, 2018; (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which the Company has $1.07 billion or more in annual revenues; (3) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); or (4) the date on which the Company has, during the previous three-year period, issued publicly or privately, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities.

Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933 for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As an emerging growth company, the Company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

Impact of Recently ~~Adopted~~Issued Accounting Guidance

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU updates guidance in Topic 326 to eliminate the accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructuring activities by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Additionally, the amendments to ASC 326 require that an entity disclose current period gross write offs by year of origination within the vintage disclosures, which requires that an entity disclose the amortized cost basis of financing receivables by credit quality indicator and class of financing receivables by year of origination. ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for companies that have adopted CECL, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (modified by ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments Credit Losses, ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments Credit Losses – Targeted Transition Relief, and ASU 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses).The amendments in this ASU affect all entities that measure credit losses on financial instruments including loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial asset that has a contractual right to receive cash that is not specifically excluded. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this ASU replace the incurred loss impairment methodology required in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate credit losses. The amendments in this ASU will affect entities to

varying degrees depending on the credit quality of the assets held by the entity, the duration of the assets held, and how the entity applies the current incurred loss methodology. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU ~~2019-12,~~2019-10, ~~Income Taxes~~Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic ~~740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes~~326), Derivatives and Hedging (815), and Leases (Topic 842) – Effective Dates. . This ASU ~~aims~~amended the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies and non-SEC reporting entities. The amendment delays the effective date to ~~simplify~~fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. As an emerging growth company, the Company is required to implement by January 1, 2023 and is currently evaluating the ~~accounting for income taxes~~impact on its consolidated financial statements. Amendments should be applied using a modified retrospective transition method by ~~removing certain exceptions~~means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company has contracted with a third party to develop a model to comply with CECL requirements. The Company has established a steering committee with representation from various departments across the enterprise. While the Company has not finalized the impact of implementing CECL, the Company expects to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the ~~general principles~~allowance and ~~also simplification~~beginning retained earnings upon adoption.

Note 2: Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of stock compensation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units of approximately 332,200 and 300,500 shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation because they were deemed to be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units of approximately 23,000 and 56,000 respectively, were excluded from the calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, stock options and restricted stock awards of approximately 561,000 and 560,000,shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

The following table presents the numerators and denominators for basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020:~~2021:

At June 30, ~~2021, 141~~2022, 448 debt securities had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of approximately ~~2.5%~~7.7% from the Company’s amortized cost basis. At December 31, ~~2020, 150~~2021, 199 debt securities had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of approximately ~~1.7%~~2.1% from the Company’s amortized cost basis. These unrealized losses related principally to changes in interest rates and were not due to changes in the financial condition of the issuer, the quality of any underlying assets, or applicable credit enhancements. In analyzing whether unrealized losses on debt securities are other than temporary, management considers whether the securities are issued by a government body or agency, whether a rating agency has downgraded the securities, industry analysts’ reports, the financial condition and performance of the issuer, and the quality of any underlying assets or credit enhancements. Since management has the ability and intent to hold these debt securities for the foreseeable future, no declines were deemed to be other than temporary as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

The following table presents a summary of amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities by the lesser of expected call date or contractual maturity as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. Call date is used when a call of the debt security is expected, as determined by the Company when the security has a market value above its amortized cost. Contractual maturities will differ from expected maturities for mortgage-backed, SBA securities and asset-backed securities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without penalties.

Note 7:6: Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, which consist of interest rate swaps and interest rate caps, to assist in its interest rate risk management. The notional amount does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual agreements. Derivative financial instruments are reported at fair value in other assets or other liabilities. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship. For derivatives not designated as hedges, the gain or loss is recognized in current earnings.

Non-hedge Derivatives

The Company enters into interest rate swaps to facilitate client transactions and meet their financing needs. Upon entering into these instruments to meet client needs, the Company enters into offsetting positions with large U.S. financial institutions in order to minimize the risk to the Company. These swaps are derivatives, but are not designated as hedging instruments.

Interest rate swap contracts involve the risk of dealing with counterparties and their ability to meet contractual terms. When the fair value of a derivative instrument contract is positive, this generally indicates that the ~~counter party~~counterparty or client owes the Company, and results in credit risk to the Company. When the fair value of a derivative instrument contract is negative, the Company owes the client or counterparty and therefore, the Company has no credit risk.

The following table presents a summary of the Company’s interest rate swaps to facilitate customer transactions as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020:~~2021:

Cash Flow Hedging Derivatives

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the aggregate fair value of the derivative instrument is recorded in other assets or other liabilities with any gain or loss related to changes in fair value recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. The gain or loss is reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged asset or liability affects earnings and is presented in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged asset or liability. The Company utilizes cash flow hedges to manage interest rate exposure for the brokered ~~certificate of~~ deposit and wholesale borrowing ~~and notes payable~~ portfolios. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that ~~$1,213~~$1.1 million will be reclassified to interest expense.

The following table presents a summary of the Company’s interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020:~~2021:

Note 9:8: Commitments, Contingencies and Credit Risk

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Credit Risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual, or notional, amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon and some of the commitments may not be drawn upon to the total extent of the commitment, the notional amount of these commitments does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The following commitments were outstanding at June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020:~~2021:

The Company had outstanding letters of credit with the FHLB in total amounts of ~~$42,675~~$53.7 million and ~~$60,091~~$36.5 million at June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, on behalf of customers and to secure public deposits.

Legal Contingencies

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is a party, and no property of these entities is subject, to any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the Bank’s business. The Company does not know of any proceeding contemplated by a governmental authority against the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

In 2017, the Company adopted the Bridgewater Bancshares, Inc. 2017 Combined Incentive and Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan (the “2017 Plan”). Under the 2017 Plan, the Company may grant options to its directors, officers, employees and consultants for up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock. Both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options may be granted under the 2017 Plan. The exercise price of each option equals the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and the maximum term of each outstanding option is ten years. All outstanding options have been granted with vesting periods of four or five years. As of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, there were ~~293,900~~44,700 and ~~313,600 of remaining~~294,700 shares, respectively, of the Company’s common stock reserved for future option grants under the 2017 Plan.

In 2019, the Company adopted the Bridgewater Bancshares, Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 EIP”). The types of awards which may be granted under the 2019 EIP include incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, restricted stock units, restricted stock and cash incentive awards. The Company may grant these awards to its directors, officers, employees and certain other service providers for up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock. The exercise price of each option equals the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and the maximum term of each award is ten years. All outstanding awards have been granted with a vesting period of four years. As of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, there were ~~543,507~~350,991 and ~~561,883 of remaining~~352,575 shares, respectively, of the Company’s common stock reserved for future grants under the 2019 EIP.

Stock Options

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed form option valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on an industry index as described below. The expected term of options granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferable. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Historically, the Company has not paid a dividend on its common stock and does not expect to do so in the near future.

The Company used the S&P 600 CM Bank Index as its historical volatility index. The S&P 600 CM Bank Index is an index of publicly traded small capitalization, regional, commercial banks located throughout the United States. There were 51 banks in the index ranging in market capitalization from $500 million up to $4.0 billion.

The weighted average assumptions used in the model of valuing stock option grants for the six months ended June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, are as follows:

Note ~~11:~~10: Regulatory Capital

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank must also meet certain specific capital guidelines under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of common equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital and total capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets (referred to as the “leverage ratio”), as defined under the applicable regulatory capital rules.

The following tables present the capital amounts and ratios for the Company, on a consolidated basis, and the Bank as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020:~~2021:

The Company and the Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer, as defined by ~~Basel III~~ regulatory ~~capital~~ guidelines, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, stock repurchases and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers.

Note ~~12:~~11: Fair Value Measurement

The Company categorizes its assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a three-level hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique used to determine fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used in the determination of the fair value measurement fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities valued at fair value are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs that utilized quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2 – Inputs that include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. Fair values for these instruments are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows.

Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the Company may re-measure the carrying value of assets and liabilities measured on a nonrecurring basis to fair value. Adjustments to fair value usually result when certain assets are impaired. Such assets are written down from their carrying amounts to their fair value.

Professional standards allow entities the irrevocable option to elect to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The Company adopted the policy to value certain financial instruments at fair value. The Company has not elected to measure any existing financial instruments at fair value; however, it may elect to measure newly acquired financial instruments at fair value in the future.

Investment Securities

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of investment securities; such items are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

For the Company’s investments, when quoted prices are not available for identical securities in an active market, the Company determines fair value utilizing vendors who apply matrix pricing for similar bonds where no price is observable or may compile prices from various sources. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including time value, yield curve, volatility factors, prepayment speeds, default rates, loss severity, current market, and contractual prices for the underlying financial instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially, all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace and can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Fair values from these models are verified, where possible, against quoted market prices for recent trading activity of assets with similar characteristics to the security being valued. Such methods are generally classified as Level 2. However, when prices from independent sources vary, or cannot be obtained or corroborated, a security is generally classified as Level 3.

similar characteristics to the security being valued. Such methods are generally classified as Level 2. However, when prices from independent sources vary, or cannot be obtained or corroborated, a security is generally classified as Level 3.

Interest Rate Caps

The fair value of the caps is calculated by determining the total expected asset or liability exposure of the derivatives. Total expected exposure incorporates both the current and potential future exposure of the derivative, derived from using observable inputs, such as yield curves and volatilities, and accordingly are valued using Level 2 inputs.

Interest Rate Swaps

Interest rate swaps are traded in over-the-counter markets where quoted market prices are not readily available. For those interest rate swaps, fair value is determined using internally developed models of a third party that uses primarily market observable inputs, such as yield curves and option volatilities, and accordingly are valued using Level 2 inputs.

Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis; however, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment or a change in the amount of previously recognized impairment.

The following tables present net impairment losses related to nonrecurring fair value measurements of certain assets at June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020:~~2021:

Impaired Loans

In accordance with the provisions of the loan impairment guidance, impairment is measured on loans when it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, or discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceeds the recorded investments in such loans. Impaired loans for which an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. Collateral values are estimated using Level 2 inputs based on customized discounting criteria.

Impairment amounts on impaired loans represent specific valuation allowance and write-downs during the period presented on impaired loans that were individually evaluated for impairment based on the estimated fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs, excluding impaired loans fully charged-off.

Table of Contents

Fair Value

Disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, for which it is practicable to estimate that value, is required whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value of cash flow or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimate of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Certain financial instruments with a fair value that is not practicable to estimate and all non-financial instruments are excluded from the disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not necessarily represent the underlying value of the Company.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters that could affect the estimates. Fair value estimates are based on existing on and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business. Deposits with no stated maturities are defined as having a fair value equivalent to the amount payable on demand. This prohibits adjusting fair value derived from retaining those deposits for an expected future period of time. This component, commonly referred to as a deposit base intangible, is neither considered in the above amounts nor is it recorded as an intangible asset on the balance sheet. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company to estimate fair value of consolidated financial statements not previously discussed.

Cash and due from banks – The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates their fair value.

Bank-owned certificates of deposit – Fair values of bank-owned certificates of deposit are estimated using the discounted cash flow analysis based on current rates for similar types of deposits.

FHLB stock – The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates its fair value.

Loans, ~~Net~~net – Fair values for loans are estimated based on discounted cash flows, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers with similar credit quality.

Accrued interest receivable – The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value since it is short term in nature and does not present anticipated credit concerns.

Deposits – The fair values disclosed for demand deposits without stated maturities (interest and noninterest transaction, savings, and money market accounts) are equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (their carrying amounts). Fair values for the fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Federal funds purchased – The carrying amount of federal funds purchased approximates the fair value.

~~Notes payable and subordinated debentures~~ – The fair values of the Company’s notes payable and subordinated debt are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

FHLB advances – The fair values of the Company’s FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing agreements.

~~Table~~Subordinated debentures – The fair values of ~~Contents~~the Company’s subordinated debt are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Accrued interest payable – The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value since it is short term in nature.

Table of Contents

Off-balance sheet instruments – Fair values of the Company’s off-balance sheet instruments (lending commitments and unused lines of credit) are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the counterparties’ credit standing and discounted cash flow analysis. The fair value of these ~~off-balance-sheet~~off-balance sheet items approximates the recorded amounts of the related fees and was not material at June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Limitations – The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between market participants, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. Consequently, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

Overview

The Company is a financial holding company headquartered in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. The principal sources of funds for loans and investments are transaction, savings, time, and other deposits, and short-term and long-term borrowings. The Company’s principal sources of income are interest and fees collected on loans, interest and dividends earned on investment securities and service charges. The Company’s principal expenses are interest paid on deposit accounts and borrowings, employee compensation and other overhead expenses. The Company’s simple, efficient business model of providing responsive support and unconventional experiences to clients continues to be the underlying principle that drives the Company’s profitable growth.

Information Regarding COVID-19 Impact

~~Financial Position~~Management continues to monitor and ~~Results~~consider the impact of ~~Operations.~~ ~~The novel coronavirus, or~~the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic ~~has continued to create uncertainty~~closely, given the unpredictable nature in which it is evolving. This includes monitoring the effects of the CARES Act and ~~extraordinary change for the Company, its clients, its communities~~Coronavirus Relief Act and the ~~country as a whole. Vaccines have been rolled out nationwide, however~~prospects for additional fiscal stimulus programs, the acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines and new variants of the virus. The situation remains fluid and management cannot estimate the duration and full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy, financial markets and the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

~~Effects on the Company’s Market Area.~~ The Company’s primary banking market area is the Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI Metropolitan Statistical Area. Minnesota has been taking steps to reopen throughout the second quarter of 2021. Restrictions around capacity and distancing limits related to indoor events and gatherings ended on May 28, 2021 and the indoor mask-wearing mandate ended on July 1, 2021. As COVID-19 cases recede from previous highs, more people get vaccinated every day and vaccines are readily available to all who want them. As a result, Minnesota has started to return to pre-pandemic levels of activity.

~~Active Management of Credit Risk.~~ The Company has modified its internal policies to increase oversight and analysis of all credits, especially in vulnerable industries such as hospitality and restaurants, to proactively monitor evolving credit risk. The Company has not yet experienced charge-offs related to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the continued uncertainty regarding the severity and duration of the pandemic and related economic effects has and will continue to affect the Company’s estimate of its allowance for loan losses and resulting provision for loan losses. The Company will continue to monitor credits closely while working with clients to provide relief when appropriate.

~~COVID-19 Related Loan Modifications and PPP Lending.~~ The Company developed programs for clients who experienced business and personal disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic by providing interest-only modifications, loan payment deferrals, and extended amortization modifications. In accordance with regulatory guidance and the CARES Act, qualifying loans modified in response to the COVID-19 pandemic are not considered TDRs. The Company had 19 modified loans totaling $33.9 million outstanding as of June 30, 2021, representing 1.4% of the total loan portfolio, excluding PPP loans.

In a further effort to assist both existing and new clients, the Company participated in both the first and second rounds of the SBA’s PPP, which stemmed from the CARES Act that was signed into law on March 27, 2020, and reopened as authorized by the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Non-Profits, and Venues Act, or Economic Aid Act, which was signed into law on December 27, 2020. As of June 30, 2021, $27.2 million of round one PPP loans and $71.9 million of round two PPP loans remained outstanding for total outstanding PPP principal balances of $99.1 million. The Company recognized $1.4 million and $2.9 million of net origination fees associated with the program during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

~~Processes, Controls, and Business Continuity.~~ As of June 30, 2021, all seven Bank branches were open and fully operational and employees have returned to the office. Despite the recent easing of many federal, state and local government guidelines regarding COVID-19, the Company continues to take precautions to keep employees and clients safe, including providing masks and hand sanitizer, increasing cleaning efforts and requiring employees with COVID-19

~~Table of Contents~~

symptoms to quarantine away from the office. In addition, the Company will continue to leverage its investments in technology, digital platforms, and electronic banking to allow clients and employees to communicate and transact with minimal interruption. Additional information about the Company’s COVID-19 pandemic assistance programs, including relevant disclosures and up-to-date information, is maintained at bridgewaterbankmn.com.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared based on the application of certain accounting policies, the most significant of which are described in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included as a part of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form ~~10-K.~~10-K, filed with the SEC on March 8, 2022. Certain policies require numerous estimates and strategic or economic assumptions that may prove inaccurate or subject to variation and may significantly affect the reported results and financial position for the current period or in future periods. The use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments are necessary when financial assets and liabilities are required to be recorded or adjusted to reflect fair value. Assets carried at fair value inherently result in more financial statement volatility. Fair values and information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based on either quoted market prices or are provided by other independent third-party sources, when available. When such information is not available, management estimates valuation adjustments. Changes in underlying factors, assumptions or estimates in any of these areas could have a material impact on the future financial condition and results of ~~operations of the Company.~~operations. Management has discussed each critical accounting policy and the methodology for the identification and determination of critical accounting policies with the Company's Audit Committee.

The JOBS Act permits the Company an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards affecting public companies. The Company has elected to take advantage of this extended transition period, which means that the financial statements included in this report, as well as any financial statements filed in the future, will not be subject to all new or revised accounting standards generally applicable to public companies for the transition period for so long as the Company remains an emerging growth company or until the Company affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period under the JOBS Act.

The following is a discussion of the critical accounting policies and significant estimates that require the Company to make complex and subjective judgements.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses, sometimes referred to as the “allowance,” is established through a provision for loan losses which is charged to expense. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management determines all or a portion of the loan balance to be uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance for cash

Table of Contents

received on previously charged-off amounts. If the allowance is considered inadequate to absorb future loan losses on existing loans for any reason, including but not limited to, increases in the size of the loan portfolio, increases in charge-offs or changes in the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, then the provision for loan losses is increased.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement. The collection of all amounts due according to original contractual terms means that both the contractual interest and principal payments of a loan will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement. An impaired loan is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the underlying collateral, reduced by costs to sell on a discounted basis, is used if a loan is collateral dependent.

Investment Securities Impairment

Periodically, the Company may need to assess whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a security on which there is an unrealized loss is impaired on an other than temporary basis. In any such instance, the Company would consider many factors, including the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis, the market liquidity for the security, the financial condition and the near-term

~~Table of Contents~~

prospects of the issuer, expected cash flows, and the intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to recover the temporary loss. Securities on which there is an unrealized loss that is deemed to be other than temporary are written down to fair value, with the write-down recorded as a realized loss in securities gains (losses).

The fair values of investment securities are generally determined by various pricing models. The Company evaluates the methodologies used to develop the resulting fair values. The Company performs ~~a semi-annual~~an annual analysis on the pricing of investment securities to ensure that the prices represent reasonable estimates of fair value. The procedures include initial and ongoing reviews of pricing methodologies and trends. The Company seeks to ensure prices represent reasonable estimates of fair value through the use of broker quotes, current sales transactions from the portfolio and pricing techniques, which are based on the net present value of future expected cash flows discounted at a rate of return market participants would require. As a result of this analysis, if the Company determines there is a more appropriate fair value, the price is adjusted accordingly.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts business. A framework has been established for measuring the fair value of financial instruments that considers the attributes specific to particular assets or liabilities and includes a three-level hierarchy for determining fair value based on the transparency of inputs to each valuation as of the measurement date. The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments using a variety of valuation methods. When financial instruments are actively traded and have quoted market prices, quoted market prices are used for fair value and are classified as Level 1. When financial instruments, such as investment securities and derivatives, are not actively traded, the Company determines fair value based on various sources and may apply matrix pricing with observable prices for similar instruments where a price for the identical instrument is not observable. The fair values of these financial instruments, which are classified as Level 2, are determined by pricing models that consider observable market data such as interest rate volatilities, yield curve, credit spreads, prices from external market data providers and/or nonbinding broker-dealer quotations. When observable inputs do not exist, the Company estimates fair value based on available market data, and these values are classified as Level 3. Imprecision in estimating fair values can impact the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the amount of revenue or loss recorded.

Deferred Tax Asset

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes as prescribed by GAAP. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax

Table of Contents

basis. If currently available information indicates it is “more likely than not” that the deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is established. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Accounting for deferred income taxes is a critical accounting estimate because the Company exercises significant judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax liabilities and assets. Management’s determination of the realization of deferred tax assets is based upon management’s judgment of various future events and uncertainties, including the timing and amount of future income, reversing temporary differences which may offset, and the implementation of various tax plans to maximize realization of the deferred tax asset. These judgments and estimates are inherently subjective and reviewed on a continual basis as regulatory and business factors change. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require the Company to record a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance would result in additional income tax expense in such period, which would negatively affect earnings.

Net Interest Income

The Company’s primary source of revenue is net interest income, which is impacted by the level of interest earning assets and related funding sources, as well as changes in the level of interest rates. The difference between the average yield on earning assets and the average rate paid for interest bearing liabilities is the net interest spread. 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 earning assets. Both the net interest margin and net interest spread are presented on a tax-equivalent basis, which means that tax-free interest income has been adjusted to pretax-equivalent income, assuming a 21% federal tax rate. Management’s ability to respond to changes in interest rates by using effective asset-liability management techniques is critical to maintaining the stability of the net interest margin and the momentum of the Company’s primary source of earnings. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Federal Open Market Committee, or FOMC, decreased the targeted federal funds rate by a total of 150 basis points in March 2020. This decrease may impact the comparability of net interest income between 2021 and 2020.

Net interest margin includes the tax equivalent adjustment and represents the annualized results of: (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.

~~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 tables present the effect that these factors had on the interest earned on interest earning assets and the interest ~~incurred~~expense on interest bearing ~~liabilities. The effect of changes in volume is determined~~liabilities, divided by ~~multiplying the change in~~

~~volume by the previous period’s~~(ii) average rate. Similarly, the effect of rate changes is calculated by multiplying the change in average rate by the previous period’s volume. The changes not attributable specifically to either volume or rate have been allocated to the changes due to volume. The following tables present the changes in the volume and rate of interest bearing assets and liabilities for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020.

~~Comparison of Interest Income, Interest Expense, and Net Interest Margin~~

~~Second Quarter of 2021 Compared to Second Quarter of 2020~~

Net interest income was $26.3 million for the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $4.9 million, or 23.2%, compared to $21.3 million for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to growth in average interest earning assets, lower rates paid on deposits, and the recognition of PPP loan origination fees, offset partially by declining yields on loans. The increase in average interest earning assets was primarily due to strong organic growth in the loan portfolio, as well as continued purchases of investment securities.

Net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) for the second quarter of 2021 was 3.52%, a 14 basis point increase from 3.38% in the second quarter of 2020. Core net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis), a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes the impact of loan fees and PPP balances, interest, and fees, for the second quarter of 2021 was 3.31%, a 9 basis point increase from 3.22% in the second quarter of 2020.

While the origination volume of PPP loans earning 1.00% negatively impacted net interest margin, the recognition of fees associated with the originations has benefited net interest margin for the past three quarters. The SBA began forgiving PPP loans, which accelerated the recognition of PPP fees starting in the fourth quarter of 2020 and continuing into the second quarter of 2021. The Company recognized $1.4 million of PPP origination fees during the second quarter of 2021, compared to $528,000 during the second quarter of 2020. The elevated fee recognition is illustrated in the 4.75% PPP loan yield for the second quarter of 2021.

Interest income and average rates for ~~the second quarter of 2020. This increase in average interest earning assets was primarily due to strong organic growth in the loan portfolio, as well as continued purchases of~~tax-exempt investment securities. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $300.2 million, or 17.3%, to $2.04 billion for the second quarter of 2021, from $1.74 billion for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in average interest bearing liabilities was primarily due to an increase in interest bearing depositssecurities and ~~the issuance of subordinated debentures in the second quarter of 2020, offset partially by a decrease in FHLB advances and the payoff of the Company’s notes payable.~~

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Average interest earning assets produced~~loans are presented on a tax-equivalent ~~yield~~basis, assuming a federal income tax rate of ~~4.17% for~~21%.

(2)	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 includes the ~~second quarter of 2021, compared to 4.45% for~~tax equivalent adjustment and represents the ~~second quarter of 2020. The decline in~~annualized results of: (i) the ~~yield~~difference between interest income on interest earning assets was primarily due to the historically low interest rate environment resulting in lower loan and security yields and lower loan fees recognized, offset partially by PPP loan fees recognized and deployment of excess cash balances. The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities was 0.96% for the second quarter of 2021, compared to 1.58% for the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to lower rates paid on deposits, the payoff of the Company’s notes payable and the ~~early extinguishment of $94.0 million of FHLB advances, offset partially by strong growth of~~ interest ~~bearing deposits and additional subordinated debentures.~~

~~Interest Income.~~ ~~Total interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, was $31.4 million for the second quarter of 2021, compared to $28.4 million for the second quarter of 2020. The $2.9 million, or 10.4%, increase in total interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was primarily due to continued organic growth in the loan portfolio and PPP loan income.~~

Interest income on loans, on a tax-equivalent basis, was $28.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, compared to $25.9 million for the second quarter of 2020. The $2.8 million, or 10.9%, increase was due to a 17.7% increase in the average balance of loans outstanding from continued organic loan growth.

~~Loan interest income and loan fees remain the primary contributing factors to the changes in yield on interest earning assets. The aggregate loan yield, excluding PPP loans, decreased to 4.54% in the~~ ~~second quarter of 2021, which was 47 basis points lower than 5.01% in the~~ ~~second quarter of 2020~~. While loan fees have maintained a relatively stable contribution to the aggregate loan yield, the historically low yield curve has resulted in a declining core yield on loans in comparison to prior periods.

Interest expense on deposits was $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 32.1%, from $5.2 million for the second quarter of 2020. The cost of total deposits declined 45 basis points from 0.99% in the second quarter of 2020, to 0.54% in the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to deposit rate cuts consistent with a lower rate environment and the downward repricing of time deposits. The Company anticipates more opportunities to lower the cost of total deposits due to continued deposit repricing as time deposits mature and the recent success of adding efficient, low-cost brokered deposits.

Interest expense on borrowings decreased $308,000 to $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2021, compared to $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2020. This decrease was primarily due to the payoff of the Company’s notes payable and the early extinguishment of $94.0 million of FHLB advances, partially offset by higher(ii) average ~~balances of~~

Net interest income was $51.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $10.2 million, or 24.7%, compared to $41.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to growth in average interest earning assets, lower rates paid on deposits, and the recognition of PPP loan origination fees, offset partially by declining yields on loans.

Net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 3.56%, compared to 3.48% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of 8 basis points. Core net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis), a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes the impact of loan fees and PPP balances, interest, and fees, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 3.33%, a 4 basis point increase from 3.29% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

~~Average~~ interest earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $529.2 million, or 21.8%, to $2.95 billion from $2.42 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase in average interest earning assets was primarily due to strong organic growth in the loan portfolio, the funding of round 2 PPP loans, as well as continued purchases of investment securities. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $332.4 million, or 19.9%, to $2.01 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021, from $1.67 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in average interest bearing liabilities was primarily due to an increase in interest bearing deposits and the issuance of subordinated debentures in the second quarter of 2020, offset partially by a decrease in federal funds purchased, FHLB advances and the payoff of the Company’speriod.

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 presents the effect that these factors had on the interest earned on interest earning assets and the interest incurred on 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. The changes not attributable specifically to either volume or rate have been allocated to the changes due to volume. The following tables present the changes in the volume and rate of interest bearing assets and liabilities for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, and for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the June 30, 2021.

Comparison of Interest Income, Interest Expense, and Net Interest Margin

Second Quarter of 2022 Compared to Second Quarter of 2021

Net interest income was $32.5 million for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $6.2 million, or 23.7%, compared to $26.3 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to growth in average interest earning assets and lower rates paid on deposits, offset partially by declining yields on loans and lower PPP fee recognition. The increase in average interest earning assets was primarily due to strong organic growth in the loan portfolio and continued purchases of investment securities, offset partially by the forgiveness of PPP loans and the reduction of cash balances.

Net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) for the second quarter of 2022 was 3.58%, a six basis point increase from 3.52% in the second quarter of 2021. Core net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis), a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes the impact of loan fees and PPP balances, interest, and fees, for the second quarter of 2022 was 3.34%, a three basis point increase from 3.31% in the second quarter of 2021. The stability in core net interest margin was primarily due to rising earning asset yields in conjunction with increasing funding costs associated with the higher interest rate environment. With the rapid increase in interest rates in 2022, earning asset yields and funding costs have both reached a bottom. The Company remains focused on the impact of continued interest rate hikes and the evolving shape of the yield curve throughout 2022.

As the PPP loan portfolio continues to pay down, the recognition of fees associated with the originations has decreased, which impacts comparability between periods. The Company recognized $244,000 of PPP origination fees during the second quarter of 2022, compared to $1.4 million during the second quarter of 2021. Remaining PPP origination fees to be recognized as of June 30, 2022 were $135,000.

The following table summarizes PPP loan originations and net origination fees through June 30, 2022:



	Originated				Outstanding				Program Lifetime
	Number		Principal		Number		Principal		Net Origination		Net Origination

Totals		1,851	$	259,986		32	$	4,860	$	9,250	$	9,115

Average interest earning assets for the second quarter of 2022 increased $652.3 million, or 21.6%, to $3.67 billion, from $3.02 billion for the second quarter of 2021. This increase in average interest earning assets was primarily due to strong organic growth in the loan portfolio and continued purchases of investment securities, offset partially by the forgiveness of PPP loans and the reduction of cash balances. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $400.5 million, or 19.6%, to $2.44 billion for the second quarter of 2022, from $2.04 billion for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in average interest bearing liabilities was primarily due to an increase in interest bearing deposits and federal funds purchased, as well as the issuance of additional subordinated debentures in July 2021, offset partially by a decrease in FHLB advances.

Table of Contents

Average interest earning assets produced a tax-equivalent yield of 4.16% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 4.17% for the second quarter of 2021. The decline in the yield on interest earning assets was primarily due to lower recognition of PPP origination fees, offset partially by rising yields in the investment securities portfolio. The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities was 0.86% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 0.96% for the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to lower rates paid on deposits, offset partially by the strong growth of interest bearing deposits, an increase in federal funds purchased, and the issuance of additional subordinated debentures.

Interest Income. Total interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, was $38.1 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $31.4 million for the second quarter of 2021. The $6.6 million, or 21.4%, increase in total interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was primarily due to continued organic growth in the loan portfolio and continued purchases of investment securities, offset partially by a reduction in the recognition of PPP origination fees as the PPP loan portfolio continues to be forgiven.

Interest income on loans, on a tax-equivalent basis, was $34.5 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $28.8 million for the second quarter of 2021. The $5.7 million, or 19.8%, increase was primarily due to a 22.6% increase in the average balance of loans outstanding from continued organic loan growth, which was partially offset by a 11 basis point decline in the average yield on loans.

Loan interest income and loan fees remain the primary contributing factors to the changes in the yield on interest earning assets. The aggregate loan yield, excluding PPP loans, decreased to 4.43% in the second quarter of 2022, which was 11 basis points lower than 4.54% in the second quarter of 2021. The Company believes that the portfolio yield has bottomed as new loan originations and the existing portfolio continue to reprice in the higher rate environment.

The following table presents a summary of interest and fees recognized on loans, excluding PPP loans, for the periods indicated is as follows:


	Three Months Ended
	June 30, 2022		March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021		September 30, 2021		June 30, 2021
Interest	4.17	%	4.15	%	4.20	%	4.28	%	4.37	%
Fees	0.26		0.25		0.21		0.23		0.17
Yield on Loans, Excluding PPP Loans	4.43	%	4.40	%	4.41	%	4.51	%	4.54	%

Interest Expense. Interest expense on interest bearing liabilities increased $393,000, or 8.1%, to $5.3 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $4.9 million for the second quarter of 2021. The cost of interest bearing liabilities declined 10 basis points from 0.96% in the second quarter of 2021 to 0.86% in the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to lower rates paid on deposits, offset partially by strong growth of interest bearing deposits, an increase of federal funds purchased, and the issuance of additional subordinated debentures.

Interest expense on deposits was $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $57,000, or 1.6%, from $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2021. The cost of total deposits declined eight basis points from 0.54% in the second quarter of 2021, to 0.46% in the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to the downward repricing of time and brokered deposits over the course of the year.

Interest expense on borrowings increased $450,000 to $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2021. This increase was primarily due to higher average balances of federal funds purchased and subordinated debentures due to the issuance of additional subordinated debentures in July 2021, offset partially by a decrease in FHLB advances.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

Table of Contents

Net interest income was $62.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $11.0 million, or 21.3%, compared to $51.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to growth in average interest earning assets and lower rates paid on deposits, offset partially by declining yields on loans and lower PPP fee recognition.

Net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 3.59%, compared to 3.56% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of three basis points. Core net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis), a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes the impact of loan fees and PPP balances, interest, and fees, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 3.34%, a one basis point increase from 3.33% for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Average interest earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased $600.3 million, or 20.3%, to $3.55 billion from $2.95 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase in average interest earning assets was primarily due to strong organic growth in the loan portfolio and continued purchases of investment securities, offset partially by the forgiveness of PPP loans and the reduction of cash balances. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $355.7 million, or 17.7%, to $2.36 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $2.01 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in average interest bearing liabilities was primarily due to an increase in interest bearing deposits and federal funds purchased, as well as the issuance of additional subordinated debentures in July 2021, offset partially by a decrease in FHLB advances.

Average interest earning assets produced a tax-equivalent yield of 4.15% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 4.24% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities was 0.83% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 1.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Interest Income. Total interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was $73.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $62.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The $11.0 million, or 17.7%, increase in total interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was primarily due to strong organic growth in the loan portfolio and continued purchases of investment securities, offset partially by a reduction in the recognition of PPP origination fees as the PPP loan portfolio continues to be forgiven.

Interest income on the investment securities portfolio, on a fully-tax equivalent basis, increased $1.4 million, or 28.1%, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an $81.3 million, or 21.0%, increase in average balances between the periods.

Interest income on loans, on a fully-tax equivalent basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $66.3 million, compared to $56.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The $9.6 million, or 16.9%, increase was primarily due to a 22.0% increase in the average balance of loans outstanding, which was offset partially by a 19 basis point decline in the average yield on loans.

Interest Expense. Interest expense on interest bearing liabilities decreased $137,000, or 1.4%, to $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to lower rates paid on deposits, offset partially by the growth of interest bearing deposits, an increase of federal funds purchased and the issuance of additional subordinated debentures.

Interest expense on deposits decreased to $6.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The $570,000, or 7.9%, decrease in interest expense on deposits was primarily due to a 16 basis point decrease in the average rate paid, even as the average balance of interest bearing deposits increased 15.2%. The decrease in the average rate paid was primarily due to the downward repricing of time and brokered deposits over the course of the year. The increase in the average balance of interest bearing deposits resulted primarily from increases in interest bearing transaction deposits, savings and money market deposits, and brokered deposits, offset partially by a decline in time deposits.

Table of Contents

Interest expense on borrowings increased $433,000 to $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily due to an increase in federal funds purchased and the issuance of additional subordinated debentures in July 2021, offset partially by a lower average balance of FHLB advances and the payoff of the Company's notes payable.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses was $3.0 million for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $1.4 million, compared to the provision for loan losses of $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2021. The provision for loan losses was $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $2.0 million compared to the provision for loan losses of $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in the provision for loan losses was primarily attributable to the robust growth of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.39% at June 30, 2022, compared to 1.45% at June 30, 2021.

As an emerging growth company, the Company is not subject to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses of Financial Instruments,” or CECL, until January 1, 2023.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $47,000 from $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to increased letter of credit fees, bank-owned life insurance income, and other income, offset partially by lower gains on sales of securities. Noninterest income was $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $596,000, compared to $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to increased letter of credit fees, bank-owned life insurance income, and swap fees, offset partially by lower gains on sales of securities.

Noninterest Expense

Second Quarter of 2022 Compared to Second Quarter of 2021

Noninterest expense was $13.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $2.3 million from $11.5 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by a $1.5 million increase in salaries and employee benefits as the result of merit increases and increased staff to meet the needs of the Company’s growth, as well as increases in professional and consulting fees, marketing and advertising expenses, and other expenses.

Six months ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Six months ended June 30, 2021

Noninterest expense was $27.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $4.9 million, or 21.7%, from $22.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by a $3.1 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $550,000 increase in marketing and advertising expense, a $369,000 increase in professional and consulting fees, and a $562,00 increase in other expenses.

The Company continues to add key talent across the organization. Full-time equivalent employees increased from 214 at the end of the second quarter of 2021 to 236 at the end of the second quarter of 2022.

Efficiency Ratio. The efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, reports total noninterest expense, less amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of net interest income plus total noninterest income, less gains (losses) on sales of securities. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides a meaningful comparison of operational performance and facilitates investors’ assessments of business performance and trends in comparison to peers in the banking industry. The Company’s efficiency ratio, and its comparability to some peers, is negatively impacted by the amortization of tax credit investments, as well as other non-routine items, within noninterest expense.

The efficiency ratio was 40.2% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 42.0% for the second quarter of 2021. Excluding the impact of certain non-routine income and expenses, the adjusted efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, was 40.0% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 41.5% for the second quarter of 2021. The adjusted efficiency ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 41.0% and 41.1%, respectively. The efficiencies of the Company's "branch-light" model have positioned the Company well to continue making investments in technology and branding as the industry adapts to evolving client behavior.

Income Tax Expense

The provision for income taxes includes both federal and state taxes. Fluctuations in effective tax rates reflect the differences in the inclusion or deductibility of certain income and expenses for income tax purposes and the recognition of tax credits. The Company’s future effective income tax rate will fluctuate based on the mix of taxable and tax-free investments and loans, the recognition and availability of tax credit investments, and overall taxable income.

Income tax expense was $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2021. The effective combined federal and state income tax rate for the second quarter of 2022 was 26.0%, compared to 25.8% for the second quarter of 2021. Income tax expense was $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The effective combined federal and state income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 26.0% and 25.8%, respectively.

Average interest earning assets produced a tax-equivalent yield of 4.24% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 4.66% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities was 1.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 1.70% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

~~Interest Income.~~ Total interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was $62.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $56.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The $5.9 million, or 10.5%, increase in total interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was primarily due to continued organic growth in the loan portfolio and PPP loan income.

Interest income on the investment securities portfolio on a fully-tax equivalent basis increased $383,000, or 8.1%, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, due to a $97.8 million, or 33.8%, increase in average balances between the periods, which was offset partially by a 62 basis point decrease in the aggregate portfolio yield.

Interest income on loans, on a fully-tax equivalent basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $56.7 million, compared to $51.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The $5.6 million, or 11.0%, increase was primarily due to a 19.9% increase in the average balance of loans outstanding, which was offset partially by a 36 basis point decrease in the average yield on loans. The increase in the average balance of loans outstanding was due to strong organic loan growth. The decrease in yield on the loan portfolio was primarily driven by lower market interest rates and lower loan fee recognition, offset partially by increased recognition of PPP loan fees.

~~Interest Expense.~~ Interest expense on interest bearing liabilities decreased $4.3 million, or 30.2%, to $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $14.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, due to lower interest rates paid on both deposits and borrowings.

Interest expense on deposits decreased to $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The $3.7 million, or 34.1%, decrease in interest expense on deposits was primarily due to a 74 basis point decrease in the average rate paid, even as the average balance of deposits increased 29.8%. The decrease in the average rate paid was primarily due to the impact of lower market interest rates.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~The increase in the average balance of interest bearing deposits resulted primarily from increases in interest bearing transaction deposits, savings and money market deposits and brokered deposits.~~

Interest expense on borrowings decreased $576,000 to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This decrease was primarily due to lower average balance of FHLB advances and federal funds purchased, as well as the payoff of the Company's notes payable, offset partially by the issuance of subordinated debentures in the second quarter of 2020.

~~Provision for Loan Losses~~

The provision for loan losses was $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of $1.4 million, compared to the provision for loan losses of $3.0 million for the second quarter of 2020. The provision for loan losses was $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $2.4 million compared to the provision for loan losses of $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in the provision for loan losses compared to both prior periods related to changes in economic conditions.

The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.45% at June 30, 2021, compared to 1.26% at June 30, 2020. The allowance for loan losses to total loans, excluding PPP loans, was 1.50% at June 30, 2021, compared to 1.37% at June 30, 2020. The increase in the allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio between the periods was primarily due to economic uncertainties and evolving risks driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

~~As an emerging growth company, the Company is not subject to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13~~ ~~“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses of Financial Instruments,”~~ ~~or CECL, until January 1, 2023.~~

Noninterest income was $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of $374,000 from $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily due to lower gains on sales of securities, partially offset by increased customer service fees and other income. Noninterest income was $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $1.1 million, compared to $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to lower gains on sales of securities and swap fees.

~~Noninterest Expense~~

~~Second Quarter of 2021 Compared to Second Quarter of 2020~~

~~Noninterest expense was $11.5 million for the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $766,000 from $10.7 million for the~~ second quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily driven by a $1.2 million increase in salaries and employee benefits as the result of merit increases and increased staff to meet the needs of the Company’s growth, and a $308,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense. The overall increase in noninterest expense was partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease in FHLB advance prepayment fees incurred in the second quarter of 2020, as well as a decrease of $222,000 in amortization of tax credit investments.

~~Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2020~~

Noninterest expense was $22.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $1.9 million, or 9.5%, from $20.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily driven by a $1.8 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $650,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense, and a $419,000 increase in information technology expense. The overall increase in noninterest expense was partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease in FHLB advance prepayment fees.

Full-time equivalent employees increased from 173 at the end of the second quarter of 2020 to 214 at the end of the second quarter of 2021. The Company continues to attract strategic hires in lending, deposit gathering, technology, risk management, and other supportive roles which demonstrates the Company’s status as a preferred employer amidst ongoing market disruption.

~~Efficiency Ratio.~~ The efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, reports total noninterest expense, less amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of net interest income plus total noninterest income, less gains (losses) on sales of securities. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides a meaningful comparison of operational performance and facilitates investors’ assessments of business performance and trends in comparison to peers in the banking industry. The Company’s efficiency ratio, and its comparability to some peers, is negatively impacted by the amortization of tax credit investments, as well as other non-routine items, within noninterest expense.

The efficiency ratio was 42.0% for the second quarter of 2021, compared to 48.6% for the second quarter of 2020. Excluding the impact of certain non-routine income and expenses from noninterest expense, the adjusted efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased to 41.5% for the second quarter of 2021, compared to 40.4% for the second quarter of 2020. The adjusted efficiency ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 41.1% and 42.2%, respectively. The efficiencies of the Company's "branch-light" model have positioned the Company well for when the pandemic ends, and going forward, will provide more flexibility for the Company to make significant investments in technology as the industry adapts to evolving client behavior.

~~Income Tax Expense~~

Income tax expense was $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, compared to $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2020. The effective combined federal and state income tax rate for the second quarter of 2021 was 25.8%, compared to 20.9% for the second quarter of 2020. Income tax expense was $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The effective combined federal and state income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 25.8% and 23.2%, respectively. The higher effective combined rate compared to both prior periods was due to fewer tax credits being recognized.

Total gross loans at June 30, ~~2021~~2022 were ~~$2.59~~$3.23 billion, an increase of ~~$267.8~~$406.4 million, or ~~11.5%~~14.4%, over total gross loans of ~~$2.33~~$2.82 billion at December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, and an increase of ~~$400.4~~$631.7 million, or ~~18.3%~~24.4%, over total gross loans of ~~$2.19~~$2.59 billion at June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The ~~Company’s~~increase in the loan portfolio during the second quarter of 2022 was primarily due to growth in the commercial, construction and land development, multifamily, and CRE nonowner occupied segments, offset partially by the forgiveness of PPP loans. When excluding PPP loans, gross loans grew $245.4 million during the second quarter of 2022, or 33.1% on an annualized basis. The Company's continued strong loan growth has been driven by the expansion of its talented lending teams, the strong, growing brand of the Bank in the Twin Cities market and the M&A-related market disruption in the Twin Cities resulting in client and banker acquisition ~~opportunities, PPP-related client acquisition opportunities, the expansion of the talented lending teams, and the strong and growing brand in the Twin Cities market.~~opportunities.

Asset Quality

The Company emphasizes credit quality in the originating and monitoring of the loan portfolio, and success in underwriting is measured by the levels of classified and nonperforming assets and net charge-offs. Federal regulations and internal policies require the use of an asset classification system as a means of managing and reporting problem and potential problem assets. The Company has incorporated an internal asset classification system, substantially consistent with federal banking regulations, as a part of the credit monitoring system. Federal banking regulations set forth a classification scheme for problem and potential problem assets as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss” assets. An asset is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the financial institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified “substandard” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, “highly

questionable and improbable.” Assets classified as “loss” are those considered “uncollectible” and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. Assets which do not currently expose the insured institution to sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess weaknesses are required to be designated “watch.”

The following table presents information on loan classifications at June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. The Company had no assets classified as doubtful or loss.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, the length and extent of the economic uncertainty may result in further watchlist or adverse classifications in the loan portfolio.~~2021.

The increase in substandard loans was due to the migration of one relationship from watch to a substandard risk rating. Management continues to actively work with these borrowers and closely monitor substandard credits.

The Company developed programs for clients who experienced business and personal disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic by providing interest-only modifications, loan payment deferrals, and extended amortization modifications. In accordance with interagency regulatory guidance and the CARES Act, qualifying loans modified in response to the COVID-19 pandemic are not considered TDRs. Modifications under this guidance, which could only be applied to modifications made by January 1, 2022, have been granted on a case-by-case basis based on specific needs and circumstances affecting each borrower. The Company had 197 modified loans totaling ~~$34.0~~$29.8 million outstanding as of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022 representing ~~1.4%~~0.9% of the loan portfolio, excluding PPP ~~loans.~~loans, which was down from $35.0 million at December 31, 2021.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming loans include loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis and loans 90 days past due and still accruing. Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans plus foreclosed assets (i.e., real or personal property acquired through foreclosure). Nonaccrual loans totaled ~~$761,000 and $775,000 as of~~$688,000 at June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and $722,000 at December 31, ~~2020, respectively,~~2021, a decrease of ~~$14,000.~~$34,000.

(1)	Nonperforming assets are defined as nonaccrual loans and loans greater than 90 days past due still accruing plus foreclosed assets. There were no loans greater than 90 days past due still accruing for any period shown.

The balance of nonperforming assets can fluctuate due to changes in economic conditions. The Company has established a policy to discontinue accruing interest on a loan (that is, place the loan on nonaccrual status) after it has become 90 days delinquent as to payment of principal or interest, unless the loan is considered to be well-collateralized and is actively in the process of collection. In addition, a loan will be placed on nonaccrual status before it becomes 90 days delinquent unless management believes that the collection of interest is expected. Interest previously accrued but uncollected on such loans is reversed and charged against current income when the receivable is determined to be uncollectible. If management believes that a loan will not be collected in full, an increase to the allowance for loan losses is recorded to reflect management’s estimate of any potential exposure or loss. Generally, payments received on

~~Table of Contents~~

nonaccrual loans are applied directly to principal. Gross income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans during the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 was ~~$12,000~~$15,000 and ~~$31,000,~~$22,000, respectively.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level management considers adequate to provide for known and probable incurred losses in the portfolio. The level of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of estimated losses in the portfolio, after consideration of risk characteristics of the loans and prevailing and anticipated economic conditions. Loan charge-offs (i.e., loans judged to be uncollectible) are charged against the reserve and any subsequent recovery is credited to the reserve. The Company analyzes risks within the loan portfolio on a continual basis. A risk system, consisting of multiple grading categories for each portfolio class, is utilized as an analytical tool to assess risk and appropriate reserves. In addition to the risk system, management further evaluates risk characteristics of the loan portfolio under current and anticipated economic conditions, including the economic distress caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, rising inflation and the risk of recession, and considers such factors as the financial condition of the borrower, past and expected loss experience, and other factors which management feels deserve recognition in establishing an appropriate reserve. These estimates are reviewed at least quarterly, and as adjustments become necessary, they are recognized in the periods in which they become known. Although management strives to maintain an allowance it deems adequate, future economic changes, deterioration of

borrowers’ creditworthiness, and the impact of examinations by regulatory agencies all could cause changes to the allowance for loan losses.

At June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the allowance for loan losses was ~~$37.6~~$44.7 million, an increase of ~~$2.8~~$4.7 million from ~~$34.8~~$40.0 million at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. Net charge-offs (recoveries) totaled $6,000 during the second quarter of 2022 and ($4,000) during the second quarter of ~~2021 and ($48,000) during the second quarter of 2020.~~2021. Net charge-offs (recoveries) totaled ~~$(50,000)~~$9,000 for the six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~$(7,000)~~($50,000) for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

Deposit growth in the second quarter of 2022 was primarily due to an increase in noninterest bearing transaction deposits, ~~were $758.0~~savings and money market deposits, and brokered deposits, offset partially by declines in interest bearing transaction deposits and time deposits. On a year-over-year basis, noninterest bearing transaction deposits increased $204.0 million, ator 26.9%, compared to June 30, ~~2021, compared~~2021. Similar to $671.9 million at December 31, 2020, and $648.9 million at June 30, 2020.

Thethe loan portfolio, the growth in core ~~non-maturity~~ deposits ~~was~~has been a result of ~~both~~ successful new client and banker acquisition initiatives, ~~pandemic-related accumulation~~expansion of ~~liquidity by existing clients,~~commercial client relationships, and the ~~Company’s~~ strong, growing brand of the Bank in the Twin Cities market. Given the ~~fluid environment,~~rapid rise in interest rates and the prospect for more, management believes deposits could experience fluctuations in future periods.

The Company relies on increasing the deposit base to fund loans and other asset growth. The Company is in a highly competitive market and competes for local deposits by offering attractive products with competitive rates. The Company expects to have a higher average cost of funds for local deposits compared to competitor banks due to the lack of an extensive branch network. The Company’s strategy is to offset the higher cost of funding with a lower level of operating expense. When appropriate, the Company utilizes alternative funding sources such as brokered deposits. The brokered deposit market provides flexibility in structure, optionality and efficiency not afforded in traditional retail deposit channels. At June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, total brokered deposits were ~~$447.4~~$493.2 million, ~~a decrease~~an increase of ~~$4.9~~$123.9 million, or ~~1.1%~~33.6%, compared to total brokered deposits of ~~$452.3~~$369.3 million at December 31, ~~2020.~~ Brokered deposits increased back to levels last seen on December 31, 2020 due to the opportunity to obtain $75.0 million in funding during the quarter at 1 basis point at various short-term maturities ranging from 3-12 months.2021.

Regulatory Capital. The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by federal banking regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and Bank’s business.

Under applicable regulatory capital rules, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank must also meet certain specific capital guidelines under the prompt corrective action

~~Table of Contents~~

framework. The capital amounts and classification are subject to qualitative judgments by the federal banking regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of common equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital and total capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets (referred to as the “leverage ratio”), as defined under the applicable regulatory capital rules.

Management believes the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. The regulatory capital ratios for the Company and the Bank to meet the minimum capital adequacy standards and for the Bank to be considered well capitalized under the prompt corrective action framework are

The Company and the Bank are subject to the rules of the Basel III regulatory capital framework and related Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The rules require a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% that was added to the minimum requirements for capital adequacy purposes. A banking organization with a conservation buffer of less than the required amount is subject to limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, stock repurchases and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. At June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the ratios for the Company and the Bank were sufficient to meet the conservation buffer.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various transactions to meet the financing needs of clients, which, in accordance with GAAP, are not included in the consolidated balance sheets. These transactions include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. Most of these commitments mature within two years and the standby letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon. All off-balance sheet commitments are included in the determination of the amount of risk-based capital that the Company and the Bank are required to hold.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit is represented by

Liquidity

Liquidity is the Company’s capacity to meet cash and collateral obligations at a reasonable cost. Maintaining an adequate level of liquidity depends on the Company’s ability to efficiently meet both expected and unexpected cash flows and collateral needs without adversely affecting either daily operations or financial condition. The Bank’s Asset Liability Management, or ALM, Committee, which is comprised of members of senior management, is responsible for managing commitments to meet the needs of customers while achieving the Company’s financial objectives. The ALM Committee meets regularly to review balance sheet composition, funding capacities, and current and forecasted loan demand.

The Company manages liquidity by maintaining adequate levels of cash and other assets from on- and off-balance sheet arrangements. Specifically, on-balance sheet liquidity consists of cash and due from banks and unpledged investment securities available for sale, which are referred to as primary liquidity. In regards to off-balance sheet capacity, the Company maintains available borrowing capacity under secured borrowing lines with the FHLB, the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, and a correspondent lender, as well as unsecured lines of credit for the purpose of overnight funds with various correspondent banks, which the Company refers to as secondary liquidity.

In addition, the Bank is a member of the American Financial Exchange, or AFX, through which it may either borrow or lend funds on an overnight or short-term basis with a group of approved commercial banks. The availability of funds changes daily. As of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company had no borrowings outstanding through the AFX. The Bank has also established additional borrowing capacity through the Federal Reserve Bank’s PPPLF, where it can pledge PPP loans to borrow an equal amount of funds. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had no borrowings outstanding through this facility and $99.1 million of PPP loans available to pledge. The facility is available through July 30, 2021.

At June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, core deposits totaled approximately ~~$2.21~~$2.66 billion and represented ~~81.2%~~82.9% of total deposits. These core deposits are normally less volatile, often with customer relationships tied to other products offered by the Company, which promote long-standing relationships and stable funding sources.

The Company uses brokered deposits, the availability of which is uncertain and subject to competitive market forces and regulation, for liquidity and interest rate risk management purposes.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

As a financial institution, the Company’s primary market risk is interest rate risk, which is defined as the risk of loss of net interest income or net interest margin because of changes in interest rates. The Company continually seeks to measure and manage the potential impact of interest rate risk. Interest rate risk occurs when interest earning assets and

~~Table of Contents~~

interest bearing liabilities mature or re-price at different times, on a different basis or in unequal amounts. Interest rate risk also arises when assets and liabilities each respond differently to changes in interest rates.

Table of Contents

The Company’s management of interest rate risk is overseen by its ALM Committee, based on a risk management infrastructure approved by the board of directors that outlines reporting and measurement requirements. In particular, this infrastructure sets limits and management targets for various metrics, including net interest income simulation involving parallel shifts in interest rate curves, steepening and flattening yield curves, and various prepayment and deposit duration assumptions. The Company’s risk management infrastructure also requires a periodic review of all key assumptions used, such as identifying appropriate interest rate scenarios, setting loan prepayment rates based on historical analysis and noninterest bearing and interest bearing transaction deposit durations based on historical analysis. The Company does not engage in speculative trading activities relating to interest rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, equities or credit.

The Company manages the interest rate risk associated with interest earning assets by managing the interest rates and terms associated with the investment securities portfolio by purchasing and selling investment securities from time to time. The Company manages the interest rate risk associated with interest bearing liabilities by managing the interest rates and terms associated with wholesale borrowings and deposits from customers which the Company relies on for funding. For example, the Company occasionally uses special offers on deposits to alter the interest rates and terms associated with interest bearing liabilities.

The Company has entered into certain hedging transactions including interest rate swaps and caps, which are designed to lessen elements of the Company’s interest rate exposure. Cash flow hedge relationships mitigate exposure to the variability of future cash flows or other forecasted transactions. The Company utilizes cash flow hedges to manage interest rate exposure for the brokered deposit and wholesale borrowing portfolios. At June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, these cash flow hedges had a total notional amount of ~~$185.0~~$250.0 million and ~~$161.0~~$235.0 million, respectively. In the event that interest rates do not change in the manner anticipated, such transactions may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.

Net Interest Income Simulation

The Company uses a net interest income simulation model to measure and evaluate potential changes in net interest income that would result over the next 12 months from immediate and sustained changes in interest rates as of the measurement date. This model has inherent limitations and the results are based on a given set of rate changes and assumptions as of a certain point in time. For purposes of the simulation, the Company assumes no growth in either interest-sensitive assets or liabilities over the next 12 months; therefore, the model’s results reflect an interest rate shock to a static balance sheet. The simulation model also incorporates various other assumptions, which the Company believes are reasonable but which may have a significant impact on results, such as: (1) the timing of changes in interest rates, (2) shifts or rotations in the yield curve, (3) re-pricing characteristics for market-rate-sensitive instruments, (4) differing sensitivities of financial instruments due to differing underlying rate indices, (5) varying loan prepayment speeds for different interest rate scenarios, (6) the effect of interest rate limitations in assets, such as floors and caps, and (7) overall growth and repayment rates and product mix of assets and liabilities. Because of the limitations inherent in any approach used to measure interest rate risk, simulation results are not intended as a forecast of the actual effect of a change in market interest rates on the results, but rather as a means to better plan and execute appropriate asset-liability management strategies and to manage interest rate risk.

Potential changes to the Company’s net interest income in hypothetical rising and declining rate scenarios calculated as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 are presented in the table below. The projections assume an immediate, parallel shift downward of the yield curve of 100 basis points and immediate, parallel shifts upward of the yield curve of 100, 200,

Table of Contents

300 and 400 basis points. In the current interest rate environment, a downward shift of the yield curve of 200, 300 and 400 basis points does not provide us with meaningful results and thus is not presented.

The table above indicates that as of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, in the event of an immediate and sustained 400 basis point increase in interest rates, the Company would experience a ~~5.30% increase~~1.61% decrease in net interest income. In the event of an immediate 100 basis point decrease in interest rates, the Company would experience a ~~2.75% decrease~~0.51% increase in net interest income.

The results of this simulation analysis are hypothetical, and a variety of factors might cause actual results to differ substantially from what is depicted. For example, if the timing and magnitude of interest rate changes differ from those projected, net interest income might vary significantly. Non-parallel yield curve shifts such as a flattening or steepening of the yield curve or changes in interest rate spreads would also cause net interest income to be different from that depicted. An increasing interest rate environment could reduce projected net interest income if deposits and other short-term liabilities re-price faster than expected or re-price faster than the Company’s assets. Actual results could differ from those projected if the Company grows assets and liabilities faster or slower than estimated, if the Company experienced a net outflow of deposit liabilities, or if the mix of assets and liabilities otherwise changes. Actual results could also differ from those projected if the Company experienced substantially different repayment speeds in the loan portfolio than those assumed in the simulation model. Finally, these simulation results do not contemplate all the actions that the Company may undertake in response to potential or actual changes in interest rates, such as changes to the Company’s loan, investment, deposit, or funding strategies.

~~LIBOR Transition~~

LIBOR is used as an index rate for the Company’s interest rate swaps and caps, a portion of its subordinated debt, various investment securities and approximately 9.1% of the Company’s loans as of June 30, 2021. It is expected that the number of institutions that have been reporting information used to set LIBOR will stop doing so starting after December 31, 2021 through June 30, 2023 when their reporting commitment ends. As a result, LIBOR may no longer be available as an index or may be seen as no longer representative of the market. Alternative reference rates are being identified, but existing contracts may not have been written to allow the use of these alternatives. The Company is evaluating the risks related to this transition and its evaluation and mitigation of risks related to the discontinuation of LIBOR may span several reporting periods through 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act) as of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The total number of shares repurchased during the periods indicated includes shares repurchased as part of the Company’s stock repurchase program and shares withheld for income tax purposes in connection with vesting of restricted stock. The shares were purchased or otherwise valued at the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of purchase and/or withholding.

~~None.~~

(2)

On January 22, 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved a stock repurchase program which authorized the Company to repurchase up to $15.0 million of its common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions. The stock repurchase program was effective immediately and subsequently expanded. On July 23, 2019, and October 27, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved $10.0 million and $15.0 million increases, respectively, to the Company’s stock repurchase program for a total authorization of $40.0 million. Additionally, on October 27, 2020, the stock repurchase program duration was extended to run through October 27, 2022. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any shares of its common stock, and other than repurchases that have been completed to date, there is no assurance that the Company will do so. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares of common stock from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions. The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including general market and economic conditions, regulatory requirements, availability of funds, and other relevant considerations, as determined by the Company. The Company may, in its discretion, begin, suspend or terminate repurchases at any time prior to the Program’s expiration, without any prior notice.
