#### IF BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR SECOND QUARTER

#### OF FISCAL YEAR 2023

Watseka, Illinois, January 27, 2023 - IF Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: IROQ) (the "Company") the holding company for Iroquois Federal Savings and Loan Association (the "Association"), announced unaudited net income of $1.4 million, or $0.44 per basic share and $0.43 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to net income of $1.7 million, or $0.56 per basic and $0.54 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2021.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, net interest income was $6.0 million compared to $5.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. We recorded a provision for credit losses of $101,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to a credit for credit losses of $(76,000) for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Interest income increased to $8.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from $6.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Interest expense increased to $2.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from $627,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Non-interest income decreased to $868,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from $1.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Non-interest expense was $4.9 million for both the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. Provision for income tax decreased to $486,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2022, from $629,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2021.

The Company announced unaudited net income of $3.4 million, or $1.07 per basic share and $1.05 per diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2022, compared to $3.6 million, or $1.17 per basic share and $1.15 per diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2021. For the six months ended December 31, 2022, net interest income was $12.3 million compared to $11.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021. We recorded a provision for credit losses of $13,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2022, compared to a credit for credit losses of $(203,000) for the six months ended December 31, 2021. Interest income increased to $15.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022, from $12.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021. Interest expense increased to $2.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 from $1.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021. Non-interest income decreased to $2.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022, from $3.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021. Non-interest expense increased to $9.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 from $9.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021. Provision for income tax decreased to $1.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022, from $1.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021.

Effective July 1, 2022, the Company early adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-13 which requires an entity to use the new impairment model known as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") to calculate the allowance for credit losses. The Company recorded a reduction to retained earnings of approximately $388,000 upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13. The transition adjustment included an increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans of $47,000 and an increase to the allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures of $496,000. The transition adjustment included a corresponding increase in deferred tax assets.

Total assets at December 31, 2022 were $823.7 million compared to $857.6 million at June 30, 2022. Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $8.4 million at December 31, 2022, from $75.8 million at June 30, 2022. Investment securities decreased to $208.1 million at December 31, 2022, from $220.9 million at June 30, 2022. Net loans receivable increased to $561.3 million at December 31, 2022, from $518.9 million at June 30, 2022. Deposits decreased to $667.3 million at December 31, 2022, from $752.0 million at June 30, 2022. The large decrease in deposits and cash and cash equivalents was partially due to approximately $57.6 million in deposits from a public entity that collects real estate taxes that were on deposit at June 30, 2022 and withdrawn in the six months ended December 31, 2022, when tax monies were distributed. Total borrowings, including repurchase agreements, increased to $75.9 million at December 31, 2022 from $24.2 million at June 30, 2022. Stockholders' equity decreased to $71.1 million at December 31, 2022 from $71.7 million at June 30, 2022. Equity decreased primarily due to a decrease of $3.7 million in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, a decrease of $388,000 due to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, effective July 1, 2022, and the accrual of approximately $633,000 in dividends to our shareholders. The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was primarily due to unrealized depreciation on available-for-sale securities, net of tax. These decreases were partially offset by net income of $3.4 million, and ESOP and stock equity plan activity of $776,000.
