EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report on Form

10-K

(this “Amendment”) amends the Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2022 (the “Original Filing”) by 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“1895 Bancorp” or the “Company”). 1895 Bancorp is filing this Amendment to present the information required by Part III of Form

10-K

as the Company will not file its definitive proxy statement within 120 days of the end of its fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Filing. The Original Filing continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing, and the Company has not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect any events which occurred at a date subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.

1895 Bancorp was formed to serve as the stock holding company for PyraMax Bank, FSB (“PyraMax Bank”) as part

of the mutual-to-stock conversion of

1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, MHC (the “MHC”). Upon completion of the conversion, which occurred on July 14, 2021, the MHC and 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc., a federal corporation (“Old 1895 Bancorp”), ceased to exist and the Company became the successor corporation to Old 1895 Bancorp. The conversion was accomplished by the merger of the MHC with and into Old 1895 Bancorp, followed by the merger of Old 1895 Bancorp with and into the Company. On July 14, 2021, public stockholders of Old 1895 Bancorp received 1.3163 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for each of their shares of Old 1895 Bancorp. Prior to the completion of the conversion on July 14, 2021, the Company had no assets or liabilities and had not conducted any business activities other than organizational activities. Accordingly, the information contained in this Amendment relate to the MHC, Old 1895 Bancorp and PyraMax Bank for any period prior to July 14, 2021, and relate to the Company and PyraMax Bank for periods after July 14, 2021.

Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors is chaired by Darrell Francis, who is an independent director. Having an independent chair ensures a greater role for the independent directors in the oversight of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. and PyraMax Bank and active participation of the independent directors in setting agendas and establishing priorities and procedures for the work of the Board.

To further assure effective independent oversight, the Board of Directors has adopted a number of governance practices, including:

• a majority of the Board of Directors is comprised of independent directors;

• periodic meetings of the independent directors; and

• annual performance evaluations of the President and Chief Executive Officer by the independent directors.

The Board of Directors recognizes that, depending on the circumstances, other leadership models might be appropriate. Accordingly, the Board of Directors periodically reviews its leadership structure.

The Board of Directors is actively involved in oversight of risks that could affect 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. This oversight is conducted primarily through committees of the Board of Directors, but the full Board of Directors has retained responsibility for general oversight of risks. The Board of Directors also satisfies this responsibility through reports by the committee chair of all board committees regarding the committees’ considerations and actions, through review of minutes of committee meetings and through regular reports directly from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. The Board of Directors of PyraMax Bank also has additional committees that conduct risk oversight. All committees are responsible for the establishment of policies that guide management and staff in

the day-to-day operation

of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. and PyraMax Bank such as lending, risk management, asset/liability management, investment management and others.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Our executive officers and directors and beneficial owners of greater than 10% of the outstanding shares of common stock are required to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of our common stock. Securities and Exchange Commission rules require disclosure if an executive officer, director or 10% beneficial owner fails to file these reports on a timely basis. Based on our review of ownership reports required to be filed during the year ended December 31, 2021, we believe that no executive officer, director or 10% beneficial owner of our shares of common stock failed to file an ownership report on a timely basis

Audit Committee.

 The Audit Committee is comprised of Directors Spiegelberg (Chair), Francis and Zenobi, each of whom is “independent” in accordance with applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and Nasdaq listing standards. Mr. Spiegelberg serves as chair of the Audit Committee. The Board of Directors has determined that Directors Spiegelberg and Zenobi each qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules.

Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, which is available on our website at

 www.pyramaxbank.com

. As more fully described in the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee reviews the financial records and affairs of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. and monitors adherence in accounting and financial reporting to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee met five times during the year ended December 31, 2021 (including meetings held by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Old 1895 Bancorp, our predecessor, which consisted of the same members).

Compensation Matters.

 The Compensation Committee is comprised of Directors Talsky (Chair), Francis, Murphy, Spiegelberg and Zenobi.

. The Compensation Committee met two times during the year ended December 31, 2021 (including meetings held by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Old 1895 Bancorp, our predecessor, which consisted of the same members).

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is comprised of Directors Francis (Chair), Murphy, Spiegelberg, Talsky and Zenobi. With regard to nominating and corporate governance matters, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s primary responsibilities include the following:

• to lead the search for individuals qualified to become members of the Board of Directors and to select director nominees to be presented for shareholder approval;

4

• to review and monitor compliance with the requirements for board independence;

• to review the committee structure and make recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding committee membership; and

• to develop and recommend corporate governance guidelines to the Board of Directors for its approval.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies nominees by first evaluating the current members of the Board of Directors willing to continue in service. Current members of the Board of Directors with skills and experience that are relevant to 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s business and who are willing to continue in service are first considered

for re-nomination, balancing

the value of continuity of service by existing members of the Board of Directors with that of obtaining a new perspective and increased diversity. If any member of the Board of Directors does not wish to continue in service, or if the Board of Directors decides not

to re-nominate a

member

for re-election, or

if the size of the Board of Directors is increased, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee would solicit suggestions for director candidates from all Board of Directors members. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is authorized to engage a third party to assist in the identification of director nominees. The Board of Directors would seek to identify a candidate who at a minimum satisfies the following criteria:

• has personal and professional ethics and integrity;

• has had experiences and achievements that have given him or her the ability to exercise and develop good business judgment;

• is willing to devote the necessary time to the work of the Board of Directors and its committees, which includes being available for Board of Directors and committee meetings;

• is familiar with the communities in which 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. operates and/or is actively engaged in community activities;

• satisfies the director qualifications set forth in 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s bylaws;

• is involved in other activities or interests that do not create a conflict with his or her responsibilities to us and 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s shareholders; and

• has the capacity and desire to represent the balanced, best interests of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s shareholders as a group, and not primarily a special interest group or constituency.

In addition, the Board of Directors will also take into account whether a candidate satisfies the criteria for “independence” under the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards and, if a nominee is sought for service on the Audit Committee, whether the candidate would satisfy the SEC’s independence standards applicable to members of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s audit committee, the financial and accounting expertise of a candidate, including whether an individual qualifies as an audit committee financial expert.

The Board of Directors understands the importance and value of diversity on the Board and seeks members who represent a mix of backgrounds that will reflect the diversity of our stockholders, employees, and customers, and experiences that will enhance the quality of the Board of Directors’ deliberations and decisions. As the holding company for a community bank, the Board of Directors also seeks directors who can continue to strengthen PyraMax Bank’s position in its community and can assist PyraMax Bank with business development through business and other community contacts.

Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which is available on our website at

 www.pyramaxbank.com

. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee was formed following the completion of

mutual-to-stock

conversion of the MHC and Old 1895 Bancorp in 2021 and did not hold any meetings in 2021.

Nominating Procedures

The Board of Directors may consider qualified candidates for director suggested by our stockholders. Stockholders can suggest qualified candidates for director by writing to our Corporate Secretary at 7001 West Edgerton Avenue, Greenfield, Wisconsin 53220. The Board of Directors has adopted a procedure by which stockholders may recommend nominees to the Board of Directors. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee must write to 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s Corporate Secretary and such communication must include:

• A statement that the writer is a stockholder and is proposing a candidate for consideration by the Board of Directors;

• The name and address of the stockholder as they appear on 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s books, and of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made;

• The class or series and number of shares of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s capital stock that are owned beneficially or of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner;

• A description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder and each proposed nominee and any other person or persons (including their names) pursuant to which the nomination(s) are to be made by such stockholder;

5

• A representation that such stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the nominee named in the stockholder’s notice;

• The name, age, personal and business address of the candidate and the principal occupation or employment of the candidate;

• The candidate’s written consent to serve as a director;

• A statement of the candidate’s business and educational experience and all other information relating to such person that would indicate such person’s qualification to serve on 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s Board of Directors; and

• Such other information regarding the candidate or the stockholder as would be required to be included in 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s proxy statement pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation 14A.

Submissions that are received and that satisfy the above requirements are forwarded to the Board of Directors for further review and consideration, using the same criteria to evaluate the candidate as it uses for evaluating other candidates that it considers.

There is a difference between the recommendations of nominees by stockholders pursuant to this policy and a formal nomination (whether by proxy solicitation or in person at a meeting) by a stockholder. Stockholders have certain rights under applicable law with respect to nominations, and any such nominations must comply with applicable laws and regulations and provisions of the Bylaws of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.

(1) Amounts in this column represent a discretionary bonus.

(2) In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, the reported amount represents the full grant date fair value of each award. Since the 2020 awards vest at a rate of 20% per year beginning in 2021, none of the named executive officers recognized any income from the awards during 2020 but will recognize income in future years as the stock awards vest or options are exercised. Similarly, since the 2021 awards vest at a rate of 20% per year beginning in 2022, none of the named executive officers recognized any income from these awards during 2021 but will recognize income in future years as the stock awards vest or options are exercised. The assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts are included in Note 19 to our audited financial statements beginning on page F-1 of the Original Filing. For stock option awards, amounts reported are grant date fair values computed based upon the Black-Scholes option valuation model, and the actual value, if any, that may be realized will depend on the excess of the stock price over the exercise price on the date the option is exercised. Therefore, there is no assurance that the value of an option realized by a named executive officer will be at or near the value shown above. For restricted stock awards, the amount shown reflects the aggregate grant date fair value of restricted stock awards granted to each named executive officer in 2021 and 2020.

(3) The amounts in this column reflect what PyraMax Bank paid for, or reimbursed, the applicable named executive officer for the various benefits and perquisites received. This column does not reflect perquisites and personal benefits received by our named executive officers, the aggregate value of which is less than $10,000. A break-down of the various elements of compensation in this column for calendar year 2021 is set forth in the following table:

Benefit Plans and Agreements

Employment Agreements

. In 2019, PyraMax Bank entered into employment agreements with the named executive officers: Richard B. Hurd, Chief Executive Officer, and Monica Baker, Senior Vice President and Chief Brand Officer, and five other executives. In February 2021, PyraMax Bank, retained David R. Ball as its Chief Operating Officer and President and Mr. Hurd relinquished the role of President to concentrate on his duties as Chief Executive Officer. In connection with Mr. Ball’s employment, he entered into an employment agreement with PyraMax Bank. In October 2021, PyraMax Bank, retained Steven T. Klitzing to fill the role of Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer upon the resignation and retirement of PyraMax Bank’s then Chief Financial Officer.

Effective January 8, 2022, Richard Hurd reduced his

day-to-day

operational involvement in the operation of PyraMax Bank while continuing to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of PyraMax Bank and the Company in order to continue to provide strategic leadership and direction to PyraMax Bank and the Company. Mr. Hurd’s change in duties was not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company or PyraMax Bank. In consideration thereof, the Company and PyraMax Bank entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with Mr. Hurd, on or about December 31, 2021 and effective as of January 8, 2022, to: (i) decrease his hours to approximately 20 hours per week; (ii) decrease his base salary to $140,000; (iii) eliminate welfare benefits which Mr. Hurd is no longer eligible to receive as a part time employee; and (iv) revise severance payments to Mr. Hurd upon an Event of Termination.

Also, on December 31, 2021, and effective January 8, 2022, the Boards of Directors of the Company and PyraMax Bank extended the terms of the employment agreements with each of David Ball, President and Chief Operating Officer, Steven T. Klitzing, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Daniel Kempel, Senior Vice President and Chief Credit Officer, Thomas Peterson, Senior Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and Monica Baker, Senior Vice President and Chief Brand Officer, such that the terms of the employment agreements will expire on January 19, 2025 (with respect to Mr. Ball, who has a three-year agreement) and July 8, 2023 (with respect to Mr. Klitzing, Mr. Kempel, Mr. Peterson and Ms. Baker, who each have

18-month

agreements). There were no other changes to the employment agreements.

Mr. Hurd’s and Mr. Ball’s employment agreements each have an initial term of three years. At least 30 days prior to the anniversary date of the agreement and each anniversary date thereafter the disinterested members of the board of directors must conduct a comprehensive performance evaluation and affirmatively approve any extension of the agreement for an additional year or determine not to extend the term of the agreement. If the board of directors determines not to extend the term, it shall provide the executive with a written notice

of non-renewal prior

to the anniversary date.

The employment agreements with Ms. Baker and the other executives each have an initial term of eighteen months. On the first anniversary date of the effective date of the agreements the disinterested members of the board of directors may choose to conduct a comprehensive performance evaluation and affirmatively approve any extension of the agreements for an additional twelve months or determine not to extend the term of the agreement. If the board of directors determines not to extend the term, it shall provide with a written notice

of non-renewal, and

the agreements will terminate as the end of the initial term.

The employment agreements provide for base salaries for Messrs. Hurd, Ball and Ms. Baker in the amounts of $140,000, $290,000 and $193,158

,

respectively. The base salaries may be increased, but not decreased (other than a decrease which is applicable to all senior officers). In addition to base salary, the executives will be entitled to participate in any bonus programs (including a discretionary bonus and, other than for Mr. Hurd, a performance-based bonus) and benefit plans that are made available to management employees. Mr. Hurd’s and Mr. Ball’s employment agreements provide for country club membership fees (Mr. Ball’s agreement also provides for PyraMax Bank to pay his initiation fees). The executives will be reimbursed for all reasonable business expenses incurred. In addition, Mr. Ball’s employment agreement provides that he will receive 300 hours of paid time off each year.

7

In the event of an executive’s involuntary termination of employment for reasons other than cause, disability or death, or in the event of the executive’s resignation for “good reason,” the executive will receive a severance payment equal to the base salary and bonus(es) that the executive would have earned during the remaining term of the employment agreement. Such payment will be payable in a lump sum within 30 days following the executive’s date of termination. In addition, the executive (other than Mr. Hurd) will be entitled to continued life insurance

and non-taxable medical

and dental insurance coverage, for the remaining unexpired term of the employment agreement, at PyraMax Bank’s expense, substantially comparable to the coverage maintained for the executive and the executive’s dependents prior to the executive’s termination. For purposes of the employment agreements, “good reason” is defined as: (i) the failure to appoint

or re-elect the

executive to his executive position or a material change in executive’s function, duties, or responsibilities, which change would cause the executive’s position to become one of lesser responsibility, importance, or scope; (ii) a relocation of the executive’s principal place of employment by more than 35 miles from the executive’s principal place of employment as of the initial effective date of the employment agreement; (iii) a material reduction in benefits and perquisites, including base salary (except for any reduction that is part of a good faith, overall reduction of such benefits applicable to all officers or employees of PyraMax Bank); (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of PyraMax Bank; or (v) a material breach of the employment agreement by PyraMax Bank. In order to be entitled to the benefit set forth above, an executive will be required to enter into a release of claims against 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. and PyraMax Bank.

In the event of executive’s involuntary termination of employment other than for cause, disability or death, or in the event of the executive’s resignation for “good reason,” following the effective date of a change in control of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. or PyraMax Bank, the executive will be entitled to (in lieu of the payments and benefits described in the previous paragraph) a severance payment equal to one

and one-half (1.5)

times (three (3) times, for Mr. Hurd and Mr. Ball) the sum of (i) the executive’s highest rate of base salary payable at any time under the agreement, plus (ii) the highest bonus paid to the executive with respect to the prior three completed fiscal years. Such payment will be payable in a lump sum within 10 days following the executive’s date of termination. In addition, the executive (other than Mr. Hurd) would be entitled, at PyraMax Bank’s (or PyraMax Bank’s successor’s) expense, to the continuation of substantially comparable life insurance

and non-taxable medical

and dental insurance coverage for the executive and the executive’s dependents for 18 months (36 months, for Mr. Ball) following the executive’s termination.

Should the executives become disabled, they will be entitled to disability benefits, if any, provided under a long-term (or short-term) disability plan sponsored by PyraMax Bank and will receive

continued non-taxable medical

and dental benefit coverage substantially comparable to that maintained for executive and his dependents prior to becoming disabled until the earlier of (i) the date the executive returns to full-time employment of PyraMax Bank, (ii) the executive is employed full-time by another employer, (iii) 12 months from the date of executive’s termination due to disability. In the event of an executive’s death while employed, the executive’s estate or beneficiary will be paid his base salary for six months following death, and his or her family will continue to

receive non-taxable medical

and dental coverage for 12 months after his death.

Upon any termination of employment (other than a termination in connection with a change in control), the executives will be required to adhere

to one-year non-competition covenant

and will be prohibited from soliciting employees of PyraMax Bank or any affiliate for the purpose of having such person(s) terminate employment with PyraMax Bank or its affiliates and provide services or accept employment with a competing business. The executives also agree that during their employment and following such employment, the executives will maintain and will not disclose the confidential information of PyraMax Bank.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan.

 PyraMax Bank has entered into a Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferral Plan”) for the benefit of its directors and senior executives. The Plan is a nonqualified plan of deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Only those persons designated by PyraMax Bank are able to participate by entering into a compensation deferral agreement and electing to defer up to 100% of such participant’s regular salary, bonus, commissions or director’s fees, as applicable. PyraMax Bank, may, but is not obligated to, make discretionary contributions to the Deferral Plan from time to time, which contributions are not required to be uniform among the participants. A participant will be 100% vested in his or her deferrals and earnings thereon, however, any discretionary amounts contributed by PyraMax Bank, are vested based on the participant’s years of service, at the rate of 20% per year, such that a participant will be fully vested after five years of service. A participant will also become fully vested in his or her employer discretionary contributions in the event of the participants death or disability while employed, or in the event of a change in control. The amounts deferred under the terms of the Deferral Plan are deemed to be invested in investment options similar to those available under PyraMax Bank’s 401(k) Savings Plan. In connection with 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.’s 2019 stock offering and 2021 stock offering, the Deferral Plan was amended to give the

participants a “one-time” election with

respect to each such offering to invest all or a portion of their accounts in the Deferral Plan in common stock of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc.

2020 Equity Incentive Plan.

 On March 27, 2020, 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. stockholders approved the 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Equity Incentive Plan”), which provides for the grant of stock-based awards to our directors and executive officers. The 2020 Equity Incentive Plan initially authorized the issuance or delivery to participants of up to 333,854 shares (converted to 439,451 shares in connection with the second-step offering) of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. common stock pursuant to grants of incentive

and non-qualified stock

options and restricted stock awards. Of this number, the maximum number of shares of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. common stock that may be issued under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan pursuant to the exercise of stock option is 238,467 (converted to 313,894 stock options in connection with due second-step options), and the maximum number of shares of 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. common stock that may be issued as restricted stock awards is 95,387 shares (converted to 125,557 in connection with the second-step offering).

ITEM 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence

Board Independence

The board of directors has determined that each of our directors, other than Richard Hurd, David Ball and Monica Baker, would be considered independent under the Nasdaq Stock Market corporate governance listing standards. Mr. Hurd, Mr. Ball and Ms. Baker are not considered independent because they are employees of the Company and PyraMax Bank. In determining the independence of our directors, the board of directors considered relationships between PyraMax Bank and our directors that are not required to be reported under “Transactions With Certain Related Persons,” below, consisting of deposit accounts that our directors maintain at PyraMax Bank. In addition, we utilize the services of Director Talsky’s law firm, of which he is the owner, and the services of a law firm in which Director Murphy’s son is a partner.

11

Transactions With Certain Related Persons

Federal law generally prohibits publicly traded companies from making loans to their executive officers and directors, but it contains a specific exemption from the prohibition for loans made by federally insured financial institutions, such as PyraMax Bank, to their executive officers and directors in compliance with federal banking regulations. At December 31, 2021, all of our loans to directors and executive officers were made in the ordinary course of business, were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to PyraMax Bank, and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. These loans were performing according to their original repayment terms at December 31, 2021, and were made in compliance with federal banking regulations.

Other than the loans described above, PyraMax Bank has not entered into any transactions since January 1, 2020 in which the amount involved exceeded $120,000 and in which any related persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the full Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with

this pre-approval, and

the fees for the services performed to date. The Audit

Committee pre-approved 100%
