Non-accrual and Delinquent Status Loans are placed on non-accrual status when (1) payment in full of principal and interest is no longer expected or (2) principal or interest has been in default for 90 days or more for all loan types, except owner occupied residential real estate, which are moved to non-accrual at 120 days or more past due, unless the loan is both well secured with marketable collateral and in the process of collection. All loans rated doubtful or worse, and certain loans rated substandard, are placed on non-accrual. A non-accrual loan may be restored to accrual status when (1) all past due principal and interest has been paid (excluding renewals and modifications that involve the capitalizing of interest) or (2) the loan becomes well secured with marketable collateral and is in the process of collection. An established track record of performance is also considered when determining accrual status. Loans are considered past due or delinquent when the contractual principal or interest due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement or any portion thereof remains unpaid after the due date of the scheduled payment. The following tables present the amortized cost basis of loans based on delinquency status at the dates indicated: Age Analysis of Past-Due Financial Assets 90 Days or More Past Due And Accruing (in thousands) Current 30 - 59 Days Past Due 60 - 89 Days Past Due 90 Days or More Past Due Total September 30, 2024 Agricultural $ 112,018 $ 279 $ — $ 399 $ 112,696 $ — Commercial and industrial 1,139,357 618 52 9,731 1,149,758 — Commercial real estate: Construction and development 386,667 — 253 — 386,920 — Farmland 179,097 2,714 — 353 182,164 — Multifamily 409,544 — — — 409,544 — Commercial real estate-other 1,345,302 1,984 61 6,166 1,353,513 — Total commercial real estate 2,320,610 4,698 314 6,519 2,332,141 — Residential real estate: One- to four- family first liens 478,489 3,388 937 2,396 485,210 1,198 One- to four- family junior liens 175,831 215 243 538 176,827 6 Total residential real estate 654,320 3,603 1,180 2,934 662,037 1,204 Consumer 71,728 263 85 48 72,124 48 Total $ 4,298,033 $ 9,461 $ 1,631 $ 19,631 $ 4,328,756 $ 1,252 Age Analysis of Past-Due Financial Assets 90 Days or More Past Due And Accruing (in thousands) Current 30 - 59 Days Past Due 60 - 89 Days Past Due 90 Days or More Past Due Total December 31, 2023 Agricultural $ 117,852 $ 338 $ — $ 224 $ 118,414 $ — Commercial and industrial 1,058,301 440 401 15,861 1,075,003 — Commercial real estate: Construction and development 323,165 30 — — 323,195 — Farmland 182,759 677 352 1,167 184,955 — Multifamily 383,178 — — — 383,178 — Commercial real estate-other 1,327,727 2,129 1,290 2,836 1,333,982 — Total commercial real estate 2,216,829 2,836 1,642 4,003 2,225,310 — Residential real estate: One- to four- family first liens 453,212 3,572 1,741 1,273 459,798 468 One- to four- family junior liens 179,339 356 690 254 180,639 — Total residential real estate 632,551 3,928 2,431 1,527 640,437 468 Consumer 67,622 118 28 15 67,783 — Total $ 4,093,155 $ 7,660 $ 4,502 $ 21,630 $ 4,126,947 $ 468 The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans on non-accrual status, amortized cost basis of loans on non-accrual status with no allowance for credit losses recorded, and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing by class of loan at the dates presented: Nonaccrual Nonaccrual with no Allowance for Credit Losses 90 Days or More Past Due And Accruing (in thousands) September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Agricultural $ 456 $ 235 $ 208 $ 12 $ — $ — Commercial and industrial 9,807 17,770 9,062 12,549 — — Commercial real estate: Construction and development — — — — — — Farmland 481 1,654 341 1,490 — — Multifamily — — — — — — Commercial real estate-other 6,318 3,441 830 853 — — Total commercial real estate 6,799 5,095 1,171 2,343 — — Residential real estate: One- to four- family first liens 2,519 1,888 828 455 1,198 468 One- to four- family junior liens 1,023 876 392 — 6 — Total residential real estate 3,542 2,764 1,220 455 1,204 468 Consumer 98 27 — — 48 — Total $ 20,702 $ 25,891 $ 11,661 $ 15,359 $ 1,252 $ 468 The interest income recognized on loans that were on nonaccrual status for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 was $708 thousand and $93 thousand, respectively.

Credit Quality Information The Company aggregates loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, and other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually to classify the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes non-homogenous loans, such as agricultural, commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and non-owner occupied residential real estate loans. Loans not meeting the criteria described below that are analyzed individually are considered to be pass-rated. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings: Special Mention/Watch - A special mention/watch asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention/watch assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Substandard - Substandard loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful - Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently known facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loss - Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future. Homogenous loans, including owner occupied residential real estate and consumer loans, are not individually risk rated. Instead, these loans are categorized based on performance: performing and nonperforming. Nonperforming loans include those loans on nonaccrual and loans greater than 90 days past due and on accrual. The following tables set forth the amortized cost basis of loans by class of receivable by credit quality indicator, and vintage, in addition to the current period gross write-offs by class of receivable and vintage, based on the most recent analysis performed, as of September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, there were no 'loss' rated credits.

In addition, management utilized qualitative factors to adjust the calculated ACL as appropriate. Qualitative factors are based on management’s judgment of company, market, industry or business specific data, changes in underlying loan composition of specific portfolios, trends relating to credit quality, delinquency, non-performing and adversely rated loans, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions. The increase in the ACL between September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 reflects $3.1 million of day 1 credit loss expense related to acquired DNVB loans, as well as additional reserve taken to support loan growth. Partially offsetting these identified increases was a $1.9 million reduction to the ACL for allowance allocated to the loans sold with our Florida banking operations. Net loan charge-offs were $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to net loan charge-offs of $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Net loan charge-offs were $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to net loan charge-offs of $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. We have made a policy election to report interest receivable as a separate line on the balance sheet. Accrued interest receivable, which is recorded within 'Other Assets', totaled $22.0 million at September 30, 2024.
