ITEM 1 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND OTHER

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X; accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that are expected for the year ended December 31, 2025. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2024, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company")'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The Company recognizes revenues as they are earned based on contractual terms, as transactions occur, or as services are provided and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company's principal source of revenue is interest income from loans and investment securities. The Company also earns noninterest income from various banking and financial services offered primarily through Farmers & Merchants State Bank (the "Bank"). Interest income is primarily recognized on an accrual basis according to nondiscretionary formulas written in contracts, such as loan agreements or investment security contracts. The Company also earns noninterest income from various banking and financial services provided to business and consumer clients such as deposit account, debit card, and mortgage banking services. Revenue is recorded for noninterest income based on the contractual terms for the service or transaction performed.

Reclassification

Certain amounts within the noninterest income and noninterest expense section of the Company's consolidated statements of income have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation to provide additional information to the reader.

NOTE 2 BUSINESS COMBINATION AND ASSET PURCHASE

On October 1, 2022, the Company acquired Peoples-Sidney Financial Corporation (PPSF), the bank holding company for Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Association, a community bank with three full-service offices in Sidney, Anna and Jackson Center, Ohio, in addition to a separate drive-thru location in Sidney, Ohio. PPSF shareholders had the opportunity to elect to receive either 0.6597 shares of Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. (FMAO) stock or $24.00 per share in cash for each PPSF share owned, subject to a requirement under the Merger Agreement that the minimum number of PPSF shares exchanged for FMAO shares in the merger was no less than 758,566. Fractional shares of FMAO common stock were not issued in respect of fractional interests arising from the merger but were paid in cash pursuant to the merger agreement. PPSF had 1,167,025 shares outstanding on October 1, 2022. The share price of FMAO stock on October 1, 2022 was $26.87. Total consideration for the acquisition was approximately $23.2 million of which $9.8 million was in cash and $13.4 million in stock. As a result of the acquisition, the Company increased its deposit base in Sidney and the greater Shelby County and reduced transaction costs. The Company has reduced costs through economies of scale.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase was allocated to net tangible and intangible assets based on their current estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. Of the total purchase price of $23.2 million, $6.0 million has been allocated to core deposit intangible included in other assets and is being amortized over seven years on a straight line basis. Goodwill of $5.9 million, which resulted from the acquisition, consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Association. Of that total amount, none of the purchase price was deductible for tax purposes.

Investment securities will at times depreciate to an unrealized loss position. The Company utilizes the following criteria to assess whether the unrealized loss requires an allowance for credit losses on investment securities. With the exception of the fourth factor, no one item by itself will necessarily signal that an allowance for credit losses on investment securities should be established.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.The fair value of the security has significantly declined from book value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.A downgrade has occurred that lowered the credit rating to below investment grade (below Baa3 by Moody and BBB – by Standard and Poors.)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.Dividends have been reduced or eliminated or scheduled interest payments have not been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.Management does not possess both the intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. This situation would require an immediate write down to fair value.

If the unrealized loss is determined to be the result of credit quality factors, the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is compared to the amortized cost basis. If the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Adjustments to the allowance are recorded in the Company's consolidated statement of income as a component of the provision for credit losses. The Company did not record an allowance for credit losses on its investment securities available for sale as the unrealized losses were attributable to changes in interest rates, not credit quality.

Unrealized losses on securities have not been recognized into income because the issuers' bonds are of high credit quality, values have only been impacted by changes in interest rates since the securities were purchased, and the Company has the intent and ability to hold the securities for the foreseeable future. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach the maturity date.

Proceeds from sales of securities totaled $1.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, resulting in no gross gains or losses. There were no sales of securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. There were no gross realized gains or losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024.

Net realized gains (losses) on sales and related tax expense (benefit) are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The net realized gains (losses) are included in net gain (loss) on sale of available-for-sale securities and the related tax expense (benefit) is included in income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

The Company recognized interest income of $33 thousand and $85 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 on nonaccrual loans. The Company recognized interest income of $28 thousand and $69 thousand on nonaccrual loans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status in the event that the loan is in past due status for more than 90 days or payment in full of principal and interest is not expected.

Following are the characteristics and underwriting criteria for each portfolio segment of loan the Bank offers:

Consumer Real Estate: Purchase, refinance, or equity financing of one to four family owner occupied dwelling. Success in repayment is subject to borrower's income, debt level, character in fulfilling payment obligations, employment, and other factors.

Agricultural Real Estate: Purchase of farm real estate or for permanent improvements to the farm real estate. Cash flow from the farm operation is the repayment source and is therefore subject to the financial success of the farm operation.

Agricultural: Loans for the production and housing of crops, fruits, vegetables, and livestock or to fund the purchase or re-finance of capital assets such as machinery and equipment and livestock. The production of crops and livestock is especially vulnerable to commodity prices and weather. The vulnerability to commodity prices is offset by the farmer's ability to hedge their position by the use of the future contracts. The risk related to weather is often mitigated by requiring crop insurance.

Commercial Real Estate: Construction, purchase, and refinance of business purpose real estate. Risks include potential construction delays and overruns, vacancies, collateral value subject to market value fluctuations, interest rate, market demands, borrower's ability to repay in orderly fashion, and others. The Bank does employ stress testing on higher balance loans to mitigate risk by ensuring the customer's ability to repay in a changing rate environment before granting loan approval.

------

ITEM 1 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Commercial and Industrial: Loans to proprietorships, partnerships, or corporations to provide temporary working capital and seasonal loans as well as long term loans for capital asset acquisition. Risks include adequacy of cash flow, reasonableness of projections, financial leverage, economic trends, management ability and estimated capital expenditures during the fiscal year. The Bank does employ stress testing on higher balance loans to mitigate risk by ensuring the customer's ability to repay in a changing rate environment before granting loan approval.

Consumer: Funding for individual and family purposes. Success in repayment is subject to borrower's income, debt level, character in fulfilling payment obligations, employment, and other factors.

Other: Primarily funds public improvements in the Bank's service area. Repayment ability is based on the continuance of the taxation revenue as the source of repayment.

The Bank uses a nine tier risk rating system to grade its loans. The grade of a loan may change during the life of the loan.

The risk ratings are described as follows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.Zero (0) Unclassified. Any loan which has not been assigned a classification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.One (1) Excellent. Credit to premier customers having the highest credit rating based on an extremely strong financial condition, which compares favorably with industry standards (upper quartile of RMA ratios). Financial statements indicate a sound earnings and financial ratio trend for several years with satisfactory profit margins and excellent liquidity exhibited. Prime credits may also be borrowers with loans fully secured by highly liquid collateral such as traded stocks, bonds, certificates of deposit, savings account, etc. No credit or collateral exceptions exist, and the loan adheres to The Bank's loan policy in every respect. Financing alternatives would be readily available and would qualify for unsecured credit. This rate is summarized by high liquidity, minimum risk, strong ratios, and low handling costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.Two (2) Good. Desirable loans of somewhat less stature than rate 1, but with strong financial statements. Loan supported by financial statements containing strong balance sheets and a history of profitability. Probability of serious financial deterioration is unlikely. Possessing a sound repayment source (and a secondary source), which would allow repayment in a reasonable period of time. Individual loans backed by liquid personal assets, established history and unquestionable character.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.Three (3) Satisfactory. Satisfactory loans of average or slightly above average risk – having some deficiency or vulnerability to changing economic conditions, but still fully collectible. Projects should normally demonstrate acceptable debt service coverage. There may be some weakness but with offsetting features of other support readily available. Loans that are meeting the terms of repayment.

Loans may be rated 3 when there is no recent information on which to base a current risk evaluation and the following conditions apply:

At inception, the loan was properly underwritten and did not possess an unwarranted level of credit risk;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.At inception, the loan was secured with collateral possessing a loan-to-value adequate to protect The Bank from loss;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.The loan exhibited two or more years of satisfactory repayment with a reasonable reduction of the principal balance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.During the period that the loan has been outstanding, there has been no evidence of any credit weakness. Some examples of weakness include slow payment, lack of cooperation by the borrower, breach of loan covenants, or the business is in an industry which is known to be experiencing problems. If any of these credit weaknesses is observed, a lower risk rating is warranted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.Four (4) Satisfactory / Monitored. A "4" (Satisfactory/Monitored) risk rating may be established for a loan considered satisfactory but which is of average credit risk due to financial weakness or uncertainty. The loans warrant a higher than average level of monitoring to ensure that weaknesses do not advance. The level of risk in Satisfactory/Monitored classification is considered acceptable and within normal underwriting guidelines, so long as the loan is given management supervision.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.Five (5) Special Mention. Loans that possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness which deserve close attention, but which do not yet warrant substandard classification. Such loans pose unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the loan and increase risk in the future. The key distinctions of a 5 (Special Mention) classification are that (1) it is indicative of an unwarranted level of risk, and (2)

------

ITEM 1 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

weaknesses are considered "potential" versus "defined" impairments to the primary source of loan repayment and collateral.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.Six (6) Substandard. One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified substandard:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.Loans which possess a defined credit weakness and the likelihood that a loan will be paid from the primary source are uncertain. Financial deterioration is underway and very close attention is warranted to ensure that the loan is collected without loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.Loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.The primary source of repayment is weakened, and The Bank is forced to rely on a secondary source of repayment such as collateral liquidation or guarantees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d.Loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that The Bank will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e.Unusual courses of action are needed to maintain a high probability of repayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f.The borrower is not generating enough cash flow to repay loan principal; however, continues to make interest payments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;h.Loans have been restructured so that payment schedules, terms and collateral represent concessions to the borrower when compared to the normal loan terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i.The lender is seriously contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to the apparent deterioration in the loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;j.There is significant deterioration in the market conditions and the borrower is highly vulnerable to these conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.Seven (7) Doubtful. One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified Doubtful:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.Loans have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard. Additionally, however, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full based on existing conditions improbable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.The primary source of repayment is gone, and there is considerable doubt as to the quality of the secondary source of repayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.The possibility of loss is high, but, because of certain important pending factors which may strengthen the loan, loss classification is deferred until its exact status is known. A Doubtful classification is established deferring the realization of the loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.Eight (8) Loss. Loans are considered uncollectable and of such little value that continuing to carry them as assets on the institution's financial statements is not feasible. Loans will be classified Loss when it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off or reserving all or a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

Modification programs focus on payment pattern changes and/or modified maturity dates with most receiving a combination of the two concessions. The modifications normally do not result in the contractual forgiveness of principal. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were no new loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were no modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that subsequently defaulted after modification.

The Bank periodically evaluates collateral asset values for collateral dependent loans to determine fair value and to measure any anticipated shortfall. Maximum time of re-evaluation was every 12 months for chattels and titled vehicles and every two years for real estate. In this process, third party evaluations were obtained. Until such time that updated appraisals were received, the Bank may have discounted the collateral value used.

The Bank uses the following guidelines as stated in policy to determine when to realize a charge-off, whether a partial or full loan balance. A charge-off in whole or in part is realized when unsecured consumer loans and overdraft lines of credit reach 90 days delinquency. At 90 days delinquent, secured consumer loans are charged down to the value of the collateral, if repossession of the collateral is assured and/or in the process of repossession. Consumer mortgage loan deficiencies are charged down upon the sale of the collateral or sooner upon the recognition of collateral deficiency. A broker's price opinion or appraisal is completed on all home loans in litigation and any deficiency is charged off before reaching 150 days delinquent. Commercial and agricultural credits are charged down/allocated at 120 days delinquency, unless an established and approved work-out plan is in place or litigation of the credit is likely to result in recovery of the loan balance. Upon notification of bankruptcy, unsecured debt is charged off. Additional charge-off is realized as further unsecured positions are recognized.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had no foreclosed residential real estate property obtained by physical possession and $944 thousand of consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which foreclosure proceedings are in process according to local jurisdictions. This compares to the Company having no foreclosed residential real estate property obtained by physical possession and $1.3 million of consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for

which foreclosure proceeding were in process according to local jurisdictions as of December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no foreclosed residential real estate property obtained by physical possession and $755 thousand of consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which foreclosure proceedings were in process according to local jurisdictions.

The Company accounts for the allowance for credit losses in accordance with Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13 - "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" and uses the current expected credit losses accounting standard. As a result, in 2023, the Company recorded a one-time adjustment from equity into the allowance for credit losses on loans and unfunded commitments in the amount of $4.5 million, or $3.4 million, net of tax.

The allowance for credit losses (ACL) has a direct impact on the provision expense. An increase in the ACL is funded through recoveries and provision expense.

The Company segregates its allowance into two reserves: The ACL and the Allowance for Unfunded Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit (AULC). When combined, these reserves constitute the total Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL).

The allowance does not include an accretable yield of $609 thousand and $1.9 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, related to the acquisitions of Ossian State Bank and Perpetual Federal Savings Bank in 2021 and Peoples Federal Savings and Loan Bank in 2022 as previously discussed in Note 2.

The AULC is reported within other liabilities while the ACL portion associated with loans is netted within the loans, net asset line on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 5 SERVICING

Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying Company's consolidated balance sheets. The unpaid principal balances of 1-4 family real estate loans serviced for others were $362.8, $366.0 and $364.3 million at September 30, 2025 and 2024 and at December 31, 2024, respectively. Unpaid principal balances of agricultural real estate loans serviced for others were $152.3, $140.3 and $141.9 million at September 30, 2025 and 2024 and at December 31, 2024, respectively.

The balance of capitalized servicing rights included in assets at September 30, 2025 and 2024 and at December 31, 2024 for 1-4 family real estate loans, was $3.6 million, $3.5 million and $3.5 million, respectively. Agricultural real estate loan servicing rights were $2.4, $2.2 and $2.2 million at September 30, 2025 and 2024 and at December 31, 2024, respectively. The capitalized addition of servicing rights is included in loan servicing income on the Company's consolidated statement of income.

The fair value of the capitalized servicing rights for 1-4 family real estate loans as of September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $4.7 million and $5.2 million, respectively, and at December 31, 2024 was $4.8 million. Capitalized servicing rights for agricultural real estate loans had a fair value of $2.0 million and $2.7 million as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and was $2.7 million at December 31, 2024. The valuations were completed by stratifying the loans into like groups based on loan type and term. Impairment was measured by estimating the fair value of each stratum, taking into consideration an estimated level of prepayment based upon current market conditions. An average constant prepayment rate for 1-4 family real estate loans of 8.7% and 7.2% were utilized at September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 8.1% at December 31, 2024. Agricultural real estate loans utilize an average constant prepayment rate based on the Bank's last twelve months of data. The average constant prepayment rate was 0.715% and 0.156% for fixed rate agricultural real estate loans at September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, compared to 0.184% at December 31, 2024. At September 30, 2025, two 1-4 family real estate strata, which included 73 of the total 3,620 loans, were slightly below the carrying value using a discount yield of 5.43% which resulted in the need to establish a $5 thousand valuation allowance. At September 30, 2025, the carrying value of all fourteen agricultural real estate strata, which included 652 loans, using an approximate discount rate of 8.16% were lower than the fair value requiring a $454 thousand valuation allowance to be established.

The following table presents the activity in the mortgage servicing rights for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

NOTE 6 EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are calculated using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula under which earnings per share is calculated from common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under this method, all earnings distributed and undistributed, are allocated to participating securities and common shares based on their respective rights to receive dividends. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are considered participating securities (i.e. unvested restricted stock), not subject to performance based measures. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Application of the two-class method for participating securities results in a more dilutive basic earnings per share as the participating securities are allocated the same amount of income as if they are outstanding for purposes of basic earnings per share. There is no additional potential dilution in calculating diluted earnings per share, therefore basic and diluted earnings per share are the same amounts. Other than the restricted stock plan, the Company has no other employee stock-based compensation plans.

The Compensation Committee of the Company has determined that it is appropriate to award shares of the common stock of the Company to Directors, whether outside or also an officer of the Company or the Bank, as a portion of their retainer for services rendered. The Committee believes that it is appropriate to award the Directors shares equal to a specific dollar amount, rounded to the nearest whole share on an annual basis commencing in June of 2020 and thereafter on the first Thursday of June. Directors receive a prorated dollar value of shares for a partial year of service. The value for the shares is to be based upon the prior day closing price. On June 5, 2025, ten directors each received $17,496 which equated to 762 shares and one director received $6,704 which equated to 292 shares. On July 29, 2025, one new Director received 288 prorated shares worth approximately $7,436. On June 6, 2024, twelve directors each received $15,007 which equated to 716 shares and one director received $5,911 which equated to 282 shares. On December 5, 2024, one new Director received 54 prorated shares worth approximately $1,730. The use of stock for Directors' retainer, does not have an effect on diluted earnings per share as it is immediately vested.

Any stock awards to senior management are made in March with other officers receiving any awards in August. On March 1, 2025, senior management received stock awards of 19,767 shares worth $508,012 while other officers received stock awards of 39,525 shares worth slightly more than $1.0 million in August of 2025. On March 1, 2024, senior management received stock awards of 23,369 shares worth $472,054 while other officers received stock awards of 36,800 shares worth $979,616 during third quarter 2024.

NOTE 7 DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Bank uses derivative financial instruments to help manage exposure to interest rate risk and the effects that changes in interest rates may have on net income and the fair value of assets and liabilities. The Bank enters into interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset/liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position.

The Bank entered into three pay-fixed receive variable interest rate swap transactions, with a combined notional value of $100 million, designated and qualifying as accounting hedges during the last quarter of 2023. Designating an interest rate swap as an accounting hedge allows the Company to recognize gains and losses, less any ineffectiveness, in the Company's consolidated statement of income within the same period that the hedged item affects earnings. The Company includes the gain or loss on the hedged items in the same line item as the offsetting loss or gain on the related interest rate swaps. The fair value of interest rate swaps with a positive fair value are reported in other assets in the Company's consolidated balance sheets while interest rate swaps with a negative fair value are reported in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

The following table presents amounts that were recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheets related to cumulative basis adjustments for interest rate swap derivatives designated as fair value accounting hedges as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

NOTE 8 QUALIFIED AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT INVESTMENTS

The Company invests in certain qualified affordable housing projects. The Company has elected to account for its investment in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method described in FASB ASU 2014-01, "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Low-Income housing Tax Credit Projects (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)", which was updated in March 2023 and released as FASB ASU 2023-02. Under the proportional amortization method, an investor amortizes the initial cost of the investment to income tax expense in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense.

At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the balance of the Company's investments in qualified affordable housing projects was $3.2 million and $3.6 million, respectively. This balance is reflected in the other assets line on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The unfunded commitments related to the investments in qualified housing projects totaled $430 and $880 thousand at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These balances are reflected in the accrued expense and other liabilities line on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company did not incur any impairment losses related to its investments in qualified affordable housing projects in 2025 or 2024.

The following tables present the Company's investments in qualified affordable housing projects as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 along with the related expenses and tax credits recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024.

NOTE 9 FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair values of financial instruments are management's estimate of the values at which the instruments could be exchanged in a transaction between willing parties. These estimates are subjective and may vary significantly from amounts that would be realized in actual transactions. In addition, other significant assets are not considered financial assets including deferred tax assets, bank premises and equipment and intangibles. Further, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on the fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of the estimates.

Fair Value Measurements:

In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

Available-for-sale securities, when quoted prices are available in an active market, are valued using the quoted price and are classified as Level 1.

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Available-for-sale securities classified as Level 2 are valued using the prices obtained from an independent pricing service. The prices are not adjusted. Securities of obligations of state and political subdivisions are valued using a type of matrix, or grid, pricing in which securities are benchmarked against the treasury rate based on credit rating. Substantially all assumptions used by the independent pricing service are observable in the marketplace, can be derived from observable data, or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Interest rate swaps classified as Level 2 are valued using the prices obtained from an independent pricing service and not adjusted. The fair value of interest rate swaps with a positive fair value are reported as assets while interest rate swaps with a negative fair value are reported as liabilities.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability. The Bank holds three local municipals that the Bank evaluates based on the credit strength of the underlying project. The fair value is determined by valuing similar credit payment streams at similar rates.

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company's assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset.

Most of the Company's available-for-sale securities, including any bonds issued by local municipalities, have CUSIP numbers or have similar characteristics of those in the municipal markets, making them marketable and comparable as Level 2.

The Company also has assets that, under certain conditions, are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, such assets consist of collateral dependent loans and loan servicing rights. Collateral dependent loans categorized as Level 3 assets consist of non-homogeneous loans that have expected credit losses. The Company may also estimate the fair value of certain nonperforming loans using a discounted cash flow method of future cash flows using management's best estimate of key assumptions. These assumptions include future payment ability, timing of payment streams, and estimated realizable values of available collateral (typically based on outside appraisals.)

At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, fair value of collateral dependent loans categorized as Level 3 was $4.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively. The specific allocation for collateral dependent loans was $389 thousand as of September 30, 2025 and $52 thousand as of December 31, 2024. The specific allocations are accounted for in the allowance for credit losses (see Note 4).

During 2025 and 2024, impairment was recognized on loan servicing rights based upon the independent third party's quarterly valuation. A valuation allowance was established by strata to quantify the likely impairment of the value of the loan servicing rights to the Company. If the carrying amount of an individual strata exceeds the fair value, impairment was recorded on that strata so the servicing asset was carried at fair value. Impairment was $459 thousand ($5 thousand on 1-4 family real estate loans and $454 thousand on agricultural real estate loans) at September 30, 2025 compared to $97 thousand ($2 thousand on 1-4 family real estate loans and $95 thousand on agricultural real estate loans) at December 31, 2024.

NOTE 12 - SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has one reportable operating segment, commercial banking. While our chief operating decision makers (CODM) monitor revenue streams of various products and services, the identifiable segments' operations are managed, and financial performance is evaluated on a Company wide basis. The commercial banking segment provides a broad array of financial products and services including commercial, agricultural, and residential mortgage as well as consumer lending activities, commercial and consumer banking services, wealth advisory services and insurance to individual and business clients through most of its banking center locations in Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan.

The accounting policies of the commercial banking segment are the same as those described in management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The CODM assess performance for the commercial banking segment and decide how to allocate resources based on net income which is also reported on the Consolidated Statements of Income as net income. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as total assets.

The CODM use net income to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on average total assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the commercial banking segment or to pay dividends or fund acquisitions. Net income is also used by the CODM to monitor budget versus actual results. Net income as well as other common company-wide financial performance and credit quality metrics such as return on average assets, return on average equity, earnings per common share, net interest margin, operating efficiency and nonaccrual loans to total loans, among others, are used for competitive analysis by benchmarking to the Company's competitors as well as used in assessing the performance of the segment and for establishing management's compensation. Loans, investments and deposits provide revenue in the banking operation. Interest expense, provisions for credit losses, salaries, wages and associated employee benefits, and data processing are the significant expenses in the banking operation.

The Company's CODM are the President and senior management team of the Company.

NOTE 13 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06 *"Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative."* The amendments in this Update are the result of the FASB's decision to incorporate into the Accounting Standards Codification certain disclosure requirements, referred by the SEC, that require incremental information to US GAAP. Topics in the ASU that have applicability to the Company are as follows:

\* *Statement of Cash Flows* - requires an accounting policy disclosure in annual periods of where cash flows associated with derivative instruments and their related gains and losses are presented in the statement of cash flows.

\* *Debt* - requires disclosure of amounts and terms of unused lines of credit and unfunded commitments and the weighted-average interest rate on outstanding short-term borrowings.

\* *Derivatives and Hedging* - adds cross-reference to disclosure requirements related to where cash flows associated with derivative instruments and their related gains and losses are presented in the statement of cash flows.

The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC's removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. If by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the Accounting Standards Codification and will not become effective for any entity. Management is reviewing the provisions of ASU 2023-06, and does not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 *"Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures."* The amendments in this Update require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income [or loss] by the applicable statutory income tax rate). The amendments also require disclosure of the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal (national) and state jurisdictions. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a prospective basis and retrospective application is permitted. Management does not expect adoption of the Update to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 *Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)*. The amendments in this Update require disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The amendments require that at each interim and annual reporting period (1) the Company disclose the amounts of (a) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, and (d) intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. A relevant expense caption is an expense caption presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations that contains any of the expense categories listed. (2) Include certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under current generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the same disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements. (3) Disclose a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. (4) Disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, the Company's definition of selling expenses. The amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this Update should be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this Update or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Management is currently evaluating the Update and does not expect adoption of the Update to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

**OVERVIEW**

This year will see the completion of our current three year strategic plan as management will develop the next three year plan during fourth quarter 2025, building on our record of success. On August 1, 2025, the Bank added to its existing footprint by opening a full-service branch in Troy, Michigan.

We have seen great earnings improvement, with earnings per share levels approaching third quarter of 2022's $0.68 per share. This has allowed for increased dividends of 8.3% since September 2022 and has continued our thirty-one year history of annual increases to those dividends.

Net interest income continues to be a significant contributor to profitability in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to the same quarter last year. Net interest income for the first nine months of 2025 is up $13.4 million over the same period last year. We have seen improved margin, driven by asset yield improvement, and anticipate even more opportunities for improvement as loans continue to reprice. Year to date net interest margin has improved for six consecutive quarters. Year to date net interest margin has increased 54 basis points over year to date last year. Third quarter 2025 net interest margin has improved by 18 basis points over second quarter 2025 and 56 basis points over fourth quarter 2024. The improvement compared to last quarter was driven by a 17 basis point increase in the yield on interest earning assets while the cost of funding remained unchanged. The repricing of existing loans and favorable yields on new production are contributing to the increase in yield on interest earning assets.

Overall, asset quality metrics are still favorable. We continue to keep a watchful eye on the overall impact of the economy and pending tariffs, which may cause past dues and non-accruals to increase throughout the year. Our credit department continues to monitor all areas and complete stress testing to better prepare our responsiveness to market events.

Increased net charge-offs offset by lower provision related expense resulted in lower credit cost in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to the second quarter of 2025. The effect of loan growth was partially offset by improved asset quality metrics resulting in a decreased provision for credit losses for the quarter compared to last quarter. Provision for credit losses was $557 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and net charge-offs were $59 thousand. Second quarter 2025 saw a provision for credit losses of $661 thousand and net charge-offs of $36 thousand.

F&M Commercial Banking Division saw loan demand grow in late 2024, continue into first quarter 2025 and remain steady in the second and third quarters of 2025. Lending rates and terms remained consistent from fourth quarter 2024 throughout the second and third quarters of 2025. The economy, inflation and the impact from potential tariffs remain the largest concerns to commercial businesses within the Company's footprint. Credit quality of the commercial portfolio has remained good and third quarter collateral values and auction values are still holding consistent with previous quarters. Past dues and delinquencies remained low for the F&M portfolio, but the team continues to monitor the portfolio closely for the impact from inflationary pressures and agricultural yields as we enter the harvest season.

As we review the results of our farm and agribusiness clients in recent quarters, the growing conditions throughout our market area were favorable through the first of August and then late season dryness has been seen. The effects on production will be known in the fourth quarter of 2025. Tariffs and trade discussions continue to be a point of interest, but commodity prices are similar to the same period in 2024. Our agricultural businesses have performed well, but with a decline in farm income, they too will feel this effect. Those involved in equipment sales have experienced the greatest impact. The performance of the agricultural portfolio continues to be monitored but payment activity continues to remain strong through the first three quarters of 2025.

The housing market has remained stable since last quarter in regard to values and inventory. Rate decreases during the third quarter have created an increase in loan applications across our footprint. Our Home Equity product has seen a surge in popularity due to borrowers not wanting to refinance their first mortgages which are at lower rates.

Consumer real estate loans and other loans saw decreases in their portfolios from the second quarter to the third quarter of 2025. All other portfolio segments saw increases. The total loan portfolio saw an increase of $33.2 million, or 1.3% at end of third quarter 2025 over second quarter. The largest increase was in the agricultural portfolio segment which increased $21.5 million, or 13.6%.

Overall, asset quality metrics are still favorable. We continue to keep a watchful eye on the overall impact of the economy and pending tariffs, which may cause past dues and non-accruals to increase in the coming quarter. Our credit department continues to monitor all areas and complete stress testing to better prepare our responsiveness to market events.

------

Noninterest income was $4.4 million for the quarter, which was up $397 thousand from third quarter 2024 and up $422 thousand from last quarter. Net gain on sale of loans and other service charges and fees saw the largest increases over second quarter 2025.

Noninterest expense was higher in third quarter 2025 by $2.3 million as compared to same quarter 2024 and $479 thousand higher than second quarter 2025. Looking at the difference between the third quarter comparisons, increased salaries and benefits were up a combined $556 thousand in 2025. Data processing and ATM expense increased a combined $963 thousand. 2024 included a much higher usage of flex credits that were provided in the renegotiation of the core processor contract. Smaller levels of flex credit will be realized going forward along with lower consulting fee levels for the remainder of 2025. The net amortization of servicing rights also increased $367 thousand over 2024. In comparing third quarter 2025 to second quarter 2025, $549 thousand of the increase is attributable to salary and benefits expenses. Net occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses amounted to a $147 thousand increase. Data processing and ATM expense decreased a combined $44 thousand from second quarter 2025. The net amortization of servicing rights increased $352 thousand in third quarter 2025 as compared to second quarter 2025.

The Company is encouraged by the higher-than-expected improvement in the net interest margin in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Overall net income, which was $2.3 million higher than third quarter 2024 and $1.1 million higher than second quarter 2025, continues the path towards a more profitable 2025. As with every year, challenges will present opportunities, and the Bank has additional projects in the works to improve revenue while keeping an eye on costs. The Company remains well-capitalized with sound liquidity levels and strong asset quality; the future appears bright.

**NATURE OF ACTIVITIES**

Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is a financial holding company incorporated under the laws of Ohio in 1985. Our subsidiary is The Farmers & Merchants State Bank (the "Bank"), a local independent community bank that has been primarily serving Northwest Ohio, Northeast Indiana and Southeast Michigan since 1897. The Bank includes F&M Insurance Agency, LLC, a subsidiary offering insurance products, which was formed in November of 2023. We report our financial condition and net income on a consolidated basis and we have only one segment.

Our executive offices are located at 307 North Defiance Street, Archbold, Ohio 43502, and our telephone number is (419) 446-2501. The Bank operates thirty-eight full-service banking offices throughout Northwest Ohio, Northeast Indiana and Southeast Michigan along with a drive-up facility in Archbold. The Bank also operates three Loan Production Offices (LPOs), two in Ohio and one in Indiana.

The Farmers & Merchants State Bank engages in general commercial banking and savings business including commercial, agricultural and residential mortgage as well as consumer lending activities. The largest segment of the lending business relates to commercial, both real estate and non-real estate. The type of commercial business ranges from small business to multi-million dollar companies. The loans are a reflection of business located within the Banks' market area of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan. Because the Bank's offices are primarily located in Northwest Ohio, Northeast Indiana and Southeast Michigan, a substantial amount of the loan portfolio is comprised of loans made to customers in the agricultural industry for such items as farmland, farm equipment and operating loans for seed, fertilizer, and feed. Other types of lending activities include loans for home improvements, and loans for the purchase of autos, trucks, recreational vehicles, motorcycles, and other consumer goods.

The Bank also provides checking account services, as well as savings and time deposit services such as certificates of deposits. In addition, Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) or Interactive Teller Machines (ITMs) are provided at most branch locations along with other independent locations in the market area. ITMs operate as an ATM with the addition of remote teller access to assist the user. The Bank has custodial services for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). The Bank provides on-line banking access for consumer and business customers. For consumers, this includes bill-pay, on-line statement opportunities and mobile banking. For business customers, it provides the option of electronic transaction origination such as wire and Automated Clearing House (ACH) file transmittal. In addition, the Bank offers remote deposit capture or electronic deposit processing. Mobile banking has been widely accepted and used by consumers. Upgrades to our digital products and services continue to occur in both retail and business lines. The Bank continues to offer new suites of products as customer preferences change and the Bank adapts and adopts new technologies. The Bank continues to offer products that also meet the needs of our more traditional customers.

The Bank has established underwriting policies and procedures which facilitate operating in a safe and sound manner in accordance with supervisory and regulatory guidance. Within this sphere of safety and soundness, the Bank's practice has been to not promote innovative, unproven credit products which may not be in the best interest of the Bank or its customers. The Bank does offer a hybrid mortgage loan. Hybrid loans are loans that start out as a fixed rate mortgage but after a set number of years automatically adjust to an adjustable rate mortgage. The Bank offers a seven and ten year fixed rate mortgage and a seven year jumbo fixed rate mortgage after which the interest rate will adjust annually for all. In order to offer longer term fixed rate

------

mortgages, the Bank does participate in the Freddie Mac, Farmer Mac and Small Business Lending programs. The Bank also normally retains the servicing rights on these partially or 100% sold loans. In order for the customer to participate in these programs they must meet the requirements established by those agencies. In addition, the Bank does sell some of its longer term fixed rate agricultural mortgages into the secondary market with the aid of brokers. The Bank currently participates in three State of Ohio programs: Ag-Link, Grow Now and Ohio Homebuyers Plus. What all three of these programs have in common, is the ability to provide the Bank an avenue to offer a product that saves both the Bank and the consumer savings over other traditional products. With the acquisition of Perpetual Federal Savings Bank in the fourth quarter of 2021 and the addition of Peoples Federal Savings in the fourth quarter of 2022, the Bank saw an increase in fixed rate, long-term mortgage loans to our portfolio from that banking service area. The Bank began offering a low income home buyer mortgage program, currently Hometown Advantage Mortgage Program, in November of 2023.

The Bank does not have a program to fund sub-prime loans. Sub-prime loans are characterized as a lending program or strategy that targets borrowers who pose a significantly higher risk of default than traditional retail banking customers.

All loan requests are reviewed as to credit worthiness and are subject to the Bank's underwriting guidelines as to secured versus unsecured credit. Secured loans are in turn subject to loan to value (LTV) requirements based on collateral types as set forth in the Bank's Loan Policy. In addition, credit scores of those seeking consumer credit are reviewed and if they do not meet the Bank's Loan Policy guidelines, an additional officer approval is required.

FM Investment Services, the brokerage department of the Bank, opened for business in April 1999. Securities are offered through Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. In November of 2020, FM Investment Services purchased the assets and clients of Adams County Financial Resources (ACFR) which is discussed in further detail in Note 2 to the Company's financial statements.

In December of 2014, the Company became a financial holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 as amended (the "Act"), in order to provide the flexibility to take advantage of the expanded powers available to a financial holding company under the Act. Our holding company is regulated and examined by the Federal Reserve. Our subsidiary bank is in turn regulated and examined by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The activities of our bank subsidiary are also subject to other federal and state laws and regulations.

The Bank formed an insurance agency, F&M Insurance Agency, LLC, in November 2023 to offer insurance products to our customers. The insurance agency is organized in Ohio and regulated by the State of Ohio, Division of Insurance.

------

The Bank's primary market includes communities located in the Ohio counties of Butler, Champaign, Defiance, Fulton, Hancock, Henry, Lucas, Shelby, Williams, Wood and in the Indiana counties of Adams, Allen, DeKalb, Jay, Steuben and Wells. The Michigan footprint includes Oakland County. In our banking activities, we compete directly with other commercial banks, credit unions, farm credit services, and savings and loan institutions in each of our operating localities. In a number of our locations, we compete against entities which are much larger than us. The primary factors in competing for loans and deposits are the rates charged as well as location and quality of the services provided.

At September 30, 2025, we had 476 full time equivalent employees. The employees are not represented by a collective bargaining unit. We provide our employees with a comprehensive benefit program, some of which is contributory. We consider our employee relations to be good.

**RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS** 

The Company and the Bank continue to monitor federal regulatory developments that may impact operations, compliance, and strategic initiatives. Changes in laws, rules, and guidance present operational and compliance challenges and require ongoing evaluation of policies, procedures, and systems.

**Truth in Lending Act – Ability to Repay / Qualified Mortgage.** The Bank monitors mortgage loans to ensure they meet Qualified Mortgage (QM) requirements, which provide a presumption of compliance under TILA's Ability to Repay rules. The final General QM Rule, effective October 2022, eliminated the 43% debt-to-income limit, removed Appendix Q underwriting standards, and established price-based thresholds for QM status. Loans must still meet underwriting standards, product features, and points-and-fees limits. The Bank occasionally originates Non-QM and Higher Priced Mortgage Loans, which are reviewed periodically by the Loan Committee.

**ECOA / Section 1071 – Small Business Lending Data Collection.** The CFPB's Section 1071 rule requires covered institutions to collect and report demographic data on small business credit applications. Court injunctions have stayed mandatory compliance for community banks, including the Bank. The Bank continues to monitor developments and prepare for future rulemaking.

**Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) Updates.** The 2023 CRA rule, jointly issued by the Federal Reserve, FDIC, and OCC, is subject to ongoing litigation and its implementation is currently paused. The agencies have proposed rescinding the 2023 framework and reverting to pre-October 2023 standards. The Bank continues to operate under the prior framework and monitors regulatory updates.

**Basel III Endgame.** The Basel Committee initiated the final phase of Basel III reforms in July 2025, increasing capital requirements, revising standardized approaches, and limiting internal model usage. While these rules primarily affect global banks, the Bank continues to assess potential indirect implications for capital adequacy and regulatory compliance.

**GENIUS Act – Payment Stablecoins.** Enacted in July 2025, the GENIUS Act establishes standards for payment stablecoins issued by banks, including reserve requirements, reporting, audits, and supervisory oversight. The Bank is evaluating potential strategic and compliance implications under this framework as part of its digital asset initiatives.

**Executive Order on Fair Banking.** An Executive Order issued in August 2025 prohibits denial of financial services based on constitutionally or statutorily protected beliefs, affiliations, or political views, and prohibits politicized or unlawful "debanking." Banking decisions must be based on individualized, objective, and risk-based analysis. The Bank continues to review and adjust policies and practices to ensure compliance.

**Ongoing Commitment.** The Company and the Bank continue to make good faith efforts to comply with applicable laws, rules, regulations, and guidance from federal agencies and remain attentive to developments that could affect operations, capital, or strategic initiatives.

**CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES** 

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and the Company follows general practices within the financial services industry in which it operates. At times the application of these principles requires management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.

These assumptions, estimates and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements. As this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different assumptions, estimates and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on assumptions, estimates and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing

------

results that could be materially different than originally reported. Examples of critical assumptions, estimates and judgments are when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not required to be recorded at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability must be recorded contingent upon a future event. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements and in the management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued and how those values are determined for the financial statements. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to assumptions, estimates, and judgments underlying those amounts, management has identified the Allowance for Credit Losses (ACL) as the accounting area that requires the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such could be the most subject to revision as new information becomes available.

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at amortized cost. Amortized cost is the principal balance outstanding, net of purchase premiums and discounts, deferred loan fees and costs. Accrued interest receivable totaled $13.6 million and $10.7 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and was reported in Other Assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipation of repayments.

Interest income on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued and placed on nonaccrual status at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans continue to accrue interest until they are charged off no later than 120 days past due unless the loan is in the process of collection. Past-due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Under the cost-recovery method, interest income is not recognized until the loan balance is reduced to zero. Under the cash-basis method, interest income is recorded when the payment is received in cash. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

The ACL represents management's estimate of expected credit losses inherent in the Bank's loan portfolio and unfunded loan commitments at the report date. The ACL methodology is regularly reviewed for its appropriateness and is approved annually by the Board of Directors or a sub-committee of the Board of Directors, such as the Enterprise Risk Management Committee. This written methodology is consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles which provides for a consistently applied analysis.

The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans' amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans are charged off against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off. The ACL reflects the Company's estimated credit losses over the life of the loan. Management assesses changes in prepayment assumptions, interest rates, collateral values, portfolio composition, trends in non-performing loans, and other economic factors. In addition to an extensive internal loan monitoring process, the Company also aims to have an annual external, independent loan review of approximately 35% of its commercial and agricultural loan portfolio. Management in turn assesses the results from the reviews to make changes in internal risk ratings of loans and the related ACL.

The Bank's methodology provides an estimate of the expected credit losses either by calculating a reserve per credit or by applying our methodology to groupings based on similar risk characteristics. The loan portfolio was grouped based on loans of similar type, including acquired loans. The loan groupings for the CECL calculation consist of Commercial Real Estate, Commercial & Industrial, Agricultural Real Estate, Agricultural, Consumer Real Estate and Consumer. All groups use the average charge-off method for calculating the ACL. This incorporates a historical loss period from March 2000, since Call Report data became more granular regarding loan groupings, and includes several economic cycles. As a percentage, the reserves are the highest against construction and development loans, while farmland loans have the lowest overall reserve due to having such low loss rates.

The Company is utilizing peer data from a peer group of banks in the region of Ohio, Michigan and Indiana with asset sizes less than $5 billion as of September 30, 2025. The reserves are calculated at the loan level and based on the note characteristics, essentially balances times loss rate + qualitative factors + forward look, with the forward-looking forecast eliminated after 12 months. In order to provide a reasonable and supportable forward-looking forecast, a regression analysis of the Bank's historical loss rates against the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) quarterly economic projections for National Unemployment is completed. Annual projections are broken down using a straight-line approach for quarterly changes.

------

In addition to this quantitative analysis, management also utilizes qualitative analysis each quarter as a component of the ACL. The qualitative factors include nine categories: ability of staff, changes in collateral values, changes in loan concentration levels, economic conditions, external factors such as regulatory, level and trends in non-accrual or adversely classified loans, loan review results, nature and volume of the portfolio and loan terms, and changes in lending policies and procedures. The methodology allows for additional qualitative factors as other risks emerge. Items within these categories are ranked as baseline, low, medium, or high levels of risk, and the related risk level per categories dictates the level of qualitative factor that is used depending on the standard deviation level from historical loss.

Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not included in the collective evaluation; reserves for expected credit losses for collateral-dependent loans are based on the expected shortfall of the loan based on the discounted collateral value. This specific reserve portion of the ACL was $389 thousand at September 30, 2025 and $52 thousand at December 31, 2024. When management determines that foreclosure is probable, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate. At 90 days delinquent, secured consumer loans are charged down to the value of the collateral, if repossession of the collateral is assured and/or in the process of repossession. Consumer mortgage loan deficiencies are charged down upon the sale of the collateral or sooner upon the recognition of collateral deficiency.

Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modifications unless either of the following applies: management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a modification to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty will be executed with an individual borrower or the extension or renewal options are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and are not unconditionally cancellable by the Company.

The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. The loan categories of off-balance sheet exposures are the same as the loan categories for the ACL. The funding assumptions are updated each quarter based on expected utilization percentages.

For more information regarding the actual composition and classification of loans involved in the establishment of the allowance for credit loss, please see Note 4 provided with the notes to consolidated financial statements.

**MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

For the remainder of 2025, the Company plans to continue with its current year strategy of modest loan growth and to focus on earnings improvement. Paydowns and payoffs will be used to fund originations to existing customers and to build relationships in our newer markets. Loan balances as of September 30, 2025, were $97.2 million or 3.8% higher than December 31, 2024 balances and there remains $85.0 million of funds committed to complete construction projects of commercial customers as of September 30, 2025.

The Company continues to focus on growth in the areas of core deposits and the expansion of contingency funding. Growing deposits has been a focus especially in our newer markets since 2024. Core deposits provide additional opportunities for noninterest income. The Bank offers the Insured Cash Sweep (ICS) product and CDARS, a certificate of deposit registry, accessed through the IntraFi network of financial institutions which helps to reduce the amount of pledged securities needed. The Bank's uninsured deposit ratio remains low at 12.7%. As of September 30, 2025, total uninsured deposits of the Bank were $350.5 million of approximately $2.8 billion total deposits. If the amount of coverage is adjusted for what is insured solely by FDIC, the percentage is 20.4% or $561.0 million of uninsured deposits as of September 30, 2025. The underlying difference between these two percentages is the protection required for public funds for which the Bank pledges securities. A State insurance fund exists for public funds in Indiana. The state of Michigan also does not require the pledging of collateral for public funds, though some entities do request it.

Deposits have increased $65.1 million as of September 30, 2025 since December 31, 2024, while cash and cash equivalents have decreased $59.3 million over the same time period. Cash balances have been used to fund loan growth and to repay maturing FHLB advances. The $117.0 million of cash holdings represents 3.5% of total assets and 4.3% of total deposits as of September 30, 2025. Currently, we are at the Bank's internal guideline of 3.5% of cash holdings to total assets and management is comfortable with our position based on our cash forecast modeling. If differences would arise between actual cash and the forecast, the Bank has access to ample short term funding sources. Since September 30, 2024, deposits have increased $67.1 million, or 2.5%, while cash and cash equivalents have decreased $128.5 million or 52.3%. Management has continued to hold biweekly sub-ALCO meetings, of which liquidity is a topic of discussion, in order to be more responsive to opportunities and threats as they arise.

During the first nine months of 2025, borrowings from the FHLB decreased $58.1 million with $56.5 million maturing in the second quarter and the remainder through normal paydowns. The Bank utilized four sources for brokered CDs in 2024 for a total of $26.9 million. This was done to establish relationships to test the access of such funds and to decrease the cost of funds going forward. To assure a proper net interest margin over the 3 and 4-year time period of these CDs, the Bank internally looked at loan originations in the quarter with similar or slightly longer fixed interest rate periods. The Bank also tested all correspondent borrowing lines during the third quarter of 2025 to assure availability should the need arise. The availability for overnight borrowing on unsecured Federal Funds lines is $163.0 million. Combining the available line of credit at the holding company level, the Company has $178.0 million overnight borrowing availability.

In comparing to the same prior year period, the September 30, 2025 (at amortized cost) loan balances of $2.7 billion accounted for $123.0 million or a 4.9% increase when compared to same period 2024. The year over year improvement was made up of an increase in commercial and industrial related loans of 5.7%. Individual growth was comprised of 13.6% in non-real estate commercial loans and 4.1% in commercial real estate loans. Agricultural related loans increased 12.3% year over year. Individual growth was comprised of 30.6% in non-real estate agricultural loans as we saw an increased use in lines of credit and 0.9% in agricultural real estate loans. Consumer real estate loans decreased by 0.3% while consumer loans decreased by 10.2%. Other loans decreased by 7.1%. The Company's strong team of lenders remain focused on providing customers valuable localized services and thereby increasing our market share.

The chart below shows the breakdown by portfolio segment as of September 30, for the last three years, at amortized cost.

Management feels confident that liquidity needs can be met through additional maturities from the security portfolio, increased deposit generating efforts and additional borrowings. For short term needs, the Bank has the unsecured borrowing capacity through its correspondent banks mentioned above along with access to $167.9 million through a Cash Management Advance with the FHLB as of September 30, 2025. The Bank's secured borrowing capacity limits at the FHLB would have allowed draws based on current collateral pledging of $162.6 million on September 30, 2025.

While the security portfolio has been utilized to fund loan growth in previous periods, additional sources have been cultivated during 2024 and 2025. The security portfolio decreased in the first nine months of 2025 from year end 2024 due to purchases of $32.8 million offset by sales of $1.4 million, maturities and paydowns of $49.4 million, net amortization of $0.1 million and a $14.2 million decrease in unrealized losses. The amount of pledged investment securities increased by $15.3 million as compared to year end and increased $20.0 million as compared to September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2025, pledged investment securities totaled $267.1 million. The Company plans to make additional purchases of securities the remainder of the year for the purposes of increasing our investment holdings in Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) qualifying securities, liquidity and contingency planning and as a means of balance sheet gap management.

------

As mentioned previously, an additional $162.6 million is also available to the Bank from the FHLB based on current amounts of pledged collateral. The Bank has pledged eligible 1-4 family, home equity, commercial real estate, multifamily real estate portfolios and specific securities. The CRE holdings may be adjusted quarterly to replace paydowns or increase availability of funds. Based on total asset capacity, the Bank would have more than $1.1 billion available to borrow.

With the exception of FHLB stocks, carried at cost, which is shown as other securities, all of the Company's security portfolio is categorized as "available-for-sale" and as such is recorded at fair value.

Overall total assets increased 0.8% or $26.0 million since year end 2024. The largest areas of growth occurred in the loan portfolio of $96.6 million offset by decreases in cash and cash equivalents of $59.3 million and the security portfolio of $3.8 million, all of which were discussed above.

Total liabilities only decreased $540 thousand since year end 2024. The largest decrease was in the FHLB borrowings of $58.1 million of which $56.5 million was due to advances maturing in second quarter 2025. Offsetting the decreased borrowings was total deposits growth of $65.1 million or 2.4%. The mix of deposits saw increases in interest-bearing checking, savings and money market deposits offset by decreases in time deposit accounts and noninterest-bearing accounts since December 31, 2024. The Bank has adjusted its checking product offerings to decrease the number of overall types and provide better service to our customers.

Shareholders' equity increased by $26.6 million as of September 30, 2025 compared to year end 2024. Earnings exceeded dividend declarations during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Accumulated other comprehensive loss decreased in unrealized loss position by $11.2 million from December 2024 to an unrealized loss of $14.0 million on September 30, 2025. Dividends declared increased to $0.2275 per share from the prior quarter's $0.22125 per share and were 2.8% over third quarter 2024's $0.22125 per share. Compared to September 30, 2024, shareholders' equity increased 7.9% or $26.4 million with $5.4 million attributed to an improvement in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Net income was higher for the quarter ended September 2025 compared to September 2024 by $2.3 million and $1.1 million higher than second quarter 2025. We are encouraged that net interest income has continued to improve quarter over quarter since third quarter 2023.

Basel III regulatory capital requirements include a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%. As of September 30, 2025, the Company and the Bank are both positioned well above the current requirement.

While the Holding Company generally has sufficient liquidity to maintain its dividend policy without relying on the upstreaming of dividends from the Bank, the Bank declared a $3.35 million dividend during the third quarter of 2025.

The Bank continues to be well-capitalized at September 30, 2025 in accordance with Federal regulatory capital requirements as the capital ratios below show:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Tier I Leverage Ratio | 9.41% |
| Risk Based Capital Tier I | 11.51% |
| Total Risk Based Capital | 12.55% |

The implementation of ASU 2016-13 (CECL) resulted in an entry which reduced retained earnings $3.4 million on January 1, 2023. This adjustment is permitted to be spread over three years when calculating regulatory capital, which for 2023 was over $2.5 million. This adjustment decreased to $1.7 million for 2024 and $843 thousand for 2025.

**Interest Income**

When comparing third quarter 2025 to third quarter 2024, average loan balances grew $97.5 million which represented a 3.8% increase. Interest income on loans increased $4.1 million or 11.2% as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Loan interest income for third quarter 2025 included $227 thousand of fee income related to interest rate swap transactions compared to $7 thousand for third quarter 2024. The associated impact to both loan yield and total asset yield for third quarter 2025 was 3 basis points, whereas there was no impact to loan yield or total asset yield for third quarter 2024. Loan interest for third quarter 2025 also includes a one-time fee collected of $195 thousand in addition to $191 thousand from the recovery of one

acquired relationship that had been fully charged off prior to acquisition. The Company's loan portfolio is 44.1% variable rate with 28.3% of total loans subject to repricing within the next three months.

The available-for-sale securities portfolio increased in average balances by $25.6 million or 5.9% when comparing to the same quarter in 2024 with the income associated with the security portfolio increasing $711 thousand over third quarter 2024. The increased balances were the result of increasing our holdings for liquidity and contingency planning purposes and to improve our investments in CRA qualifying securities. Federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits decreased in average balances by $141.1 million as compared to the same quarter in 2024 with decreased income of approximately $2.3 million for the current quarter. The decreased balances are the result of funding loan growth, purchases of available-for-sale securities and repayment of other borrowed money.

The overall total average balance of the Bank's earning assets decreased by $18.1 million and interest income for the quarter comparisons was higher for third quarter 2025 by 6.2% or $2.6 million as compared to third quarter 2024. Rate changes between periods have contributed to approximately 119.1% of the growth.

Annualized yield, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, was 5.62% as compared to 5.27% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The following charts demonstrate loan rate increases accounted for 66.0% of the increased loan interest income while increased loan balances accounted for the remaining 34.0%. The yields on tax-exempt securities and the portion of the tax-exempt IDB loans included in loans have been tax adjusted based on a 21% tax rate in the charts to follow. The tax-exempt interest income was $112 and $114 thousand for third quarter 2025 and 2024, respectively, which resulted in a federal tax savings of $24 thousand for both third quarter 2025 and 2024.

**Interest Expense**

Contributing to the increased net interest income for the quarter was a decrease in interest expense of $2.7 million or 13.4% compared to third quarter 2024. Since September 30, 2024, average interest-bearing deposit balances have increased $24.2 million or 1.1% while the Company recognized $1.9 million less in interest expense for the most recent quarter. In September 2025, the Federal Reserve made its first rate change to the federal funds rate for 2025 with a reduction of 25 basis points. During 2024, the Federal Reserve decreased the federal funds rate by 50 basis points in September and 25 basis points in November and December. Deposit rates have been adjusted numerous times with all the rate changes. The following charts demonstrate increased average interest-bearing deposit balances accounted for 1.5% of additional interest-bearing deposit expense while rate decreases accounted for decreased interest-bearing deposit expense of 101.5%. Noninterest-bearing deposits balances increased $18.6 million compared to third quarter 2024. The Bank continues to focus on capturing the full customer relationship; however, it has sometimes resulted in more expensive deposits being brought in.

Interest expense on borrowed funds decreased $838 thousand in the third quarter 2025 over the same time frame in 2024 due to the repayment of FHLB advances. During the current quarter, FHLB borrowings of $536 thousand were repaid compared to

------

repayment of $3.0 million in third quarter 2024. Interest expense on federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase decreased $4 thousand compared to third quarter 2024 due to the decrease of $207 thousand in average balances. Cost of funds decreased even with growth in interest-bearing deposit balances offset by decreased borrowings compared to third quarter 2024. The average cost of funds decreased to 2.83% in third quarter 2025 compared to 3.21% in third quarter 2024. Refer to Note 11 for additional information on subordinated notes.

As the following chart indicates, the improvement in yields on interest earning assets of 35 basis points combined with the decreased cost of funds of 38 basis points equated to a 73 basis point improvement in net interest spread when comparing to the same period a year ago. Competition for deposits remains intense with most competitors offering special rates for specific terms.

**Net Interest Income**

Net interest income increased $5.3 million for the third quarter 2025 over the same time frame in 2024 due to the increase in interest income of $2.6 million combined with the interest expense decrease of $2.7 million as previously mentioned. As the new loans added in 2024 and 2025 generate more income, management expects the benefits of the Company's strategy of repositioning the balance sheet to increase interest income in the long run. The Company has more opportunity for improved asset yield with loans repricing. Additionally, funding costs should continue to come down as well. Loans as a percentage of earning assets increased to 83.7% in third quarter 2025 compared to 80.1% in third quarter 2024. Loans to total assets increased to 79.1% in third quarter 2025 compared to 76.1% for the same period 2024. The percentage of earning assets to total assets decreased slightly to 94.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 95.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. In terms of net interest margin, the Bank recognizes competition for deposits will continue; however,

------

there is a greater opportunity for gradual improvement with loans repricing upwards in the next year and a likely continuing decrease in cost of funds.

**<u>Comparison of Noninterest Results of Operations for three month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024</u>**

**Provision Expense**

The Allowance for Credit Losses (ACL) has a direct impact on the provision expense. The increase in the ACL is funded through recoveries and provision expense.

Total provision for credit losses increased $275 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024. Management continues to monitor asset quality, making adjustments to the provision as necessary. The impact of higher interest rates and inflation are taken into consideration when reviewing qualitative factors. Loan charge-offs were $3 thousand lower during the three months ended September 30, 2025 than the same period in 2024 with all loan charge-offs for the current quarter in the consumer portfolio and commercial portfolio segments. Recoveries were $6 thousand higher during the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to same period in 2024 with 78.7% of total current quarter recoveries in the consumer portfolio segment. Combined net charge-offs were $9 thousand lower in the three months ended September 30, 2025 than the same time period 2024. All of the time periods in 2024 and 2025 had net charge-offs to total loans ratios lower than 0.1% attesting to the strong asset quality of the Bank's loan portfolio.

Loans past due 30 or more days increased $1.0 million at September 30, 2025 as compared to September 30, 2024. The largest changes were attributed to the agricultural real estate portfolio segment past due balances which increased $712 thousand for the same time period. The commercial portfolio segment also increased $209 thousand over September 30, 2024.

The following table presents the activity within the ACL for each portfolio segment and shows the contribution provided by both recoveries and the provision, along with the reduction of the allowance caused by charge-offs. The time period covered is for the three months ended September 30, 2025, 2024, and 2023.

------

The impact of loan servicing rights, both to income and expense, is shown in the following table which reconciles the value of loan servicing rights. The capitalization runs through noninterest income while the amortization thereof is included in noninterest expense.

**Noninterest Expense**

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, noninterest expenses were $2.3 million or 13.3% higher than for the same period in 2024. Salaries and wages, including normal merit increases, restricted stock expense and incentive payouts, increased $395 thousand in total. Deferred salary loans costs decreased $245 thousand from last year and restricted stock expense increased $17 thousand and incentive expense increased $107 thousand compared to 2024. Benefits increased over 2024 by $161 thousand due to increased medical expense of $99 thousand and combined taxes and workmen's compensation of $31 thousand and increased pension expense of $32 thousand. The additional cost of the offices is also evident in the increased expenses in net occupancy with additional lease expense of $30 thousand. Utilities expense increased $48 thousand over 2024. Furniture and equipment increased in total $60 thousand which was comprised of an increase in maintenance contracts and equipment repairs of $60 and $13 thousand, respectively, and decreases in small equipment purchases of $9 and equipment rental of $5 thousand. The Bank opened one new office in August of 2025 in Troy, Michigan.

Consulting fees decreased $9 thousand over the same period in 2024. Data processing expenses and ATM expense increased a combined $963 thousand. Third quarter 2024 included a much higher usage of flex credits for data processing and ATM expenses that were provided in the renegotiation of the core processor contract. Some of the flex credits may be used on a wide range of services while others are product specific. General and administrative expense increased $170 thousand. The items on this line of significance include an increase in NSF check losses and fraud of $127 thousand, an increase in miscellaneous expenses of $69 thousand and increased CDARS/ICS fees of $51 thousand.

**Income Taxes**

Income tax expense was $787 thousand higher for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 based mainly on pretax higher earnings. Amortization of qualified affordable housing projects caused income tax expense to increase $111 thousand for both the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, as presented in Note 8. Effective tax rates were 21.19% and 19.64% for 2025 and 2024, respectively. Excluding the additional $111 thousand of income tax expense for both periods, the effective tax rates would have been 20.20% and 18.28% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

**Net Income**

Overall, net income in the three months ended September 30, 2025 was up $2.3 million or 35.9% to $8.9 million as compared to last year's $6.5 million. The biggest contributor to the improvement was net interest income. Net interest income was up

------

$5.3 million or 24.6% due to both increased interest income and decreased interest expense. Provision for credit losses for loans and unfunded commitments increased $270 thousand compared to 2024. Noninterest income increased $397 thousand and noninterest expense increased $2.3 million as described above. The Company remains strong, stable, and well capitalized and has the capacity to continue to cover the increased costs of expansion. The Company is optimistic for continued improvement in profitability due to the opportunity for continued expansion in the net interest margin.

**<u>Comparison of Results of Interest Earnings and Expenses for nine month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024</u>**

**Interest Income**

When comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, average loan balances grew $53.6 million which represented a 2.1% increase. Interest income on loans increased $8.9 million or 8.2% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Loan interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 included approximately $1.1 million of fee income related to interest rate swap transactions compared to $124 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The associated impact to loan yield and total asset yield for the first nine months of 2025 was 6 basis points and 4 basis points, respectively, whereas the impact to both loan yield and total asset yield was only 1 basis point for the first nine months of 2024. Loan interest for third quarter 2025 also includes a one-time fee collected of $195 thousand in addition to $191 thousand from the recovery of one acquired relationship that had been fully charged off prior to acquisition. During the second quarter 2024, the Company recognized loan interest income of slightly more than $1.0 million related to the payoff of one nonaccrual relationship of which approximately $379 thousand was earned in 2024. The Company's loan portfolio is 44.1% variable rate with 28.3% of total loans subject to repricing during the remainder of 2025 and 38.4% of total loans subject to repricing within the next twelve months.

The available-for-sale securities portfolio increased in average balances by $53.2 million when comparing to the same time period in 2024 with the income associated with the security portfolio increasing $2.8 million over the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increased balances were the result of increasing our holdings for liquidity and contingency planning purposes and to improve our investments in CRA qualifying securities. Federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits decreased in average balances by $78.1 million as compared to the same nine month period ended September 30, 2024 with decreased income of $4.5 million for the current period. The decreased balances are the result of funding loan growth, purchases of available-for-sale securities and repayment of other borrowed money.

The overall total average balance of the Bank's earning assets increased by $28.6 million and interest income was higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 by 6.0% or $7.3 million as compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2024. Rate changes between periods have contributed to approximately 105.6% of the increase.

Annualized yield, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was 5.42% as compared to 5.17% for the comparable period ended September 30, 2024. The following charts demonstrate loan rate increases accounted for 74.6% of the increased loan interest income while increased loan balances accounted for the remaining 25.4%. The yields on tax-exempt securities and the portion of the tax-exempt IDB loans included in loans have been tax adjusted based on a 21% tax rate in the charts to follow. The tax-exempt interest income was $342 and $386 thousand for the nine months ended September 2025 and 2024 which resulted in a federal tax savings of $72 and $81 thousand, respectively.

**Interest Expense**

Contributing to the increased net interest income for the first nine months of 2025 was a decrease in interest expense of $6.2 million or 10.5% compared to the same period in 2024. Since 2024, average interest-bearing deposit balances have increased $28.8 million or 1.3% while the Company recognized $4.9 million less in interest expense for the most recent nine months. The Federal Reserve made its first change to the federal funds rate in 2025 by decreasing 25 basis points in September. During 2024, the Federal Reserve decreased the federal funds rate by 50 basis points in September and 25 basis points in November and December. Deposit rates have been adjusted numerous times with all the rate changes. The following charts demonstrate increased average interest-bearing deposit balances accounted for 5.8% of additional interest-bearing deposit expense while rate decreases accounted for decreased interest-bearing deposit expense of 105.8%. Noninterest-bearing deposits balances increased $26.5 million compared to the same period in 2024. The Bank continues to focus on capturing the full customer relationship; however, it has sometimes resulted in more expensive deposits being brought in.

Interest expense on borrowed funds decreased $1.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 over the same time frame in 2024 due to the repayment of FHLB advances. During the current nine months, FHLB borrowings of $58.2 million were repaid compared to new FHLB borrowings of $15.0 million and repayments of $17.7 million in 2024. Interest expense on federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase decreased $21 thousand compared to the first nine months of 2024 due to the decrease of $535 thousand in average balances. Cost of funds decreased even with growth in interest-bearing deposit balances offset by decreased borrowings compared to 2024. The average cost of funds decreased to 2.84% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 3.16% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Refer to Note 11 for additional information on subordinated notes.

As the following chart indicates, the improvement in yields on interest earning assets of 25 basis points combined with the decreased cost of funds of 32 basis points equated to a 57 basis point improvement in net interest spread when comparing to the same period a year ago. Competition for deposits remains intense with most competitors offering special rates for specific terms.

**Net Interest Income**

Net interest income increased approximately $13.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 over the same time frame in 2024 due to the increase in interest income of approximately $7.3 million combined with the interest expense decrease of $6.2 million as previously mentioned. As the new loans added in 2024 and 2025 and loans repricing higher generate more income, management expects the benefits of the Company's strategy of repositioning the balance sheet to increase interest income in the long run. The Company does expect to see continued improvement in asset yields as loans reprice in addition to a lowering of funding costs. Loans as a percentage of earning assets increased to 82.4% for the nine months ended 2025 compared to 81.5% for the nine months ended 2024. Loans to total assets increased to 78.1% for the nine months ended 2025 compared to 77.5% for the same period 2024. The percentage of earning assets to total assets decreased to 94.8% for the nine months ended 2025 compared to 95.1% for the nine months ended 2024. In terms of net interest margin, the Bank recognizes competition for deposits will continue; however, there is a greater opportunity for gradual improvement with loans repricing upwards in the next year and a likely continuing decrease in cost of funds.

**<u>Comparison of Noninterest Results of Operations for nine month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024</u>**

**Provision Expense**

The Allowance for Credit Losses (ACL) has a direct impact on the provision expense. The increase in the ACL is funded through recoveries and provision expense.

Provision expense increased $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. As discussed more thoroughly below, the increase was primarily driven by a combination of higher net charge-offs, a rise in nonaccrual loans, and adjustments to qualitative factors reflecting elevated credit risk in certain portfolio segments. Loan charge-offs were $187 thousand higher during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 than the same period in 2024. Recoveries were $55 thousand lower during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to same period in 2024. Net charge-offs increased $242 thousand year-over-year, with the consumer loan segment accounting for the majority of losses. Nonaccrual loans increased by $2.3 million, or 77.9%, from September 30, 2024, due largely to deterioration in the consumer real estate and agricultural real estate portfolios. The commercial loan portfolio also saw increased nonaccrual balances. Management also factored in the continuing impact of high interest rates and inflationary pressures on borrower repayment capacity, particularly in rate-sensitive consumer real estate, agricultural and commercial portfolios. These trends resulted in a higher modeled loss rate and adjustments to qualitative reserves.

Loans past due 30 or more days increased $1.0 million at September 30, 2025 as compared to September 30, 2024. The largest changes were attributed to the agricultural real estate portfolio segment past due balances which increased $712 thousand for the same time period.

The following table breaks down the activity within the ACL for each portfolio segment and shows the contribution provided by both recoveries and the provision, along with the reduction of the allowance caused by charge-offs. The time period covered is for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, 2024, and 2023.

\*Nonperforming loans are defined as all loans on nonaccrual, plus any loans past due 90 days not on nonaccrual.

The balance of loans, amortized cost at September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 within this chart does not include a fair value basis adjustment for derivatives of $1.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, or a daily average outstanding balance of

------

$1.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Refer to Note 7 for additional information related to derivative financial instruments.

------

Loans classified as nonaccrual were higher as of September 30, 2025 at $5.2 million as compared to $2.9 million as of September 30, 2024. The consumer real estate portfolio segment increased $1.9 million, or 86.8%, as compared to September 30, 2024.

The consumer portfolio segment accounted for the largest component of recoveries and of charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus the commercial and industrial portfolio segment and consumer portfolio segment which accounted for the largest components of recoveries and of charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

**Noninterest Income**

Noninterest income was up $832 thousand, or 7.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 over the same time frame in 2024. Other service fees increased by $382 thousand as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024 which includes increased overdraft and returned check charge fees of $159 thousand and combined service charges on DDA, savings accounts, ATM and miscellaneous of $173 thousand. Customer service fees decreased by $6 thousand compared to the same period in 2024. Mortgage release fees and miscellaneous customer service fees, which are included in customer service fees, decreased $13 and $75 thousand, respectively, while credit card fees increased $70 thousand over the same time period in 2024. Servicing rights income for 1-4 family real estate and agricultural real estate loans increased $258 thousand as compared to the same period in 2024 due to an increase in real estate loans sold as discussed below. Bank owned life insurance cash surrender value increased $13 thousand while interchange income decreased by $121 thousand as compared to 2024.

The Company has seen improvement in mortgage production volume partially due to the improvement of housing inventory in many of our markets. The gain on the sale of these loans was $349 thousand higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 over the same period in 2024. Total originations of loans held for sale for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $45.0 million with proceeds from sale at $46.0 million for 2025 compared to 2024's activity of $36.5 million in originations and $37.1 million in sales. The mortgages sold were both 1-4 family real estate and agricultural real estate loans originated for sale.

The table showing the impact of loan servicing rights, both to income and expense, can be seen in the three month comparison section. The capitalization runs through noninterest income while the amortization thereof is included in noninterest expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, loan servicing rights caused a net $243 thousand and $38 thousand in income, respectively. Impairment of $362 thousand and $42 thousand was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Capitalized additions of agricultural real estate loan servicing rights were $387 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $216 thousand in capitalized additions for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Amortization of agricultural real estate loan servicing rights were $214 thousand and $191 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Impairment of agricultural real estate loan servicing rights was $359 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $42 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. At September 30, 2025, the carrying value of certain strata were slightly below the market value thus requiring the establishment of a $5 thousand valuation allowance for 1-4 family real estate and an $454 thousand valuation allowance for agricultural real estate servicing rights.

**Noninterest Expense**

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, noninterest expenses were $5.1 million or 9.8% higher than for the same period in 2024. Salaries and wages, including normal merit increases, restricted stock expense and incentive payouts, increased $405 thousand in total. Salaries increased $1.0 million from last year. Restricted stock expense increased $9 thousand while incentive expense and deferred salary loan costs decreased $16 and $606 thousand, respectively from 2024. The increase in salaries was due to the investment in people for our strategic growth initiative and staffing of new offices. Benefits increased over 2024 with the increased medical expense of $423 thousand and combined taxes and workmen's compensation of $167 thousand offset with reductions in pension of $68 thousand. The additional cost of the offices is also evident in the increased expenses in net occupancy with additional lease expense of $111 thousand and building repairs and maintenance of $88 thousand. Furniture and equipment decreased $8 thousand in total which was comprised of increases in maintenance contracts and equipment repairs of $78 and $44 thousand, respectively, and decreases in depreciation and equipment rental of $105 thousand and $15 thousand, respectively.

Consulting fees increased $846 thousand over the same period in 2024 of which the majority was for time spent to our core banking operating system for the base contract negotiation and additional ancillary products. Data processing expenses and

------

ATM expense increased a combined $2.0 million. The first nine months of 2024 included a much higher usage of flex credits for data processing and ATM expenses that were provided in the renegotiation of the core processor contract. Some of the flex credits may be used on a wide range of services while others are product specific. General and administrative expense increased $744 thousand. The items on this line of significance include increases in out of state taxes of $202 thousand, combined debit card losses and NSF check losses of $206 thousand and miscellaneous expenses of $201 thousand over the same period in 2024.

**Income Taxes**

Income tax expense was $1.7 million higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 based mainly on higher earnings. Amortization of qualified affordable housing projects caused income tax expense to increase $335 thousand and $331 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as presented in Note 8. Effective tax rates were 20.80% and 20.36% for 2025 and 2024, respectively. Excluding the additional $335 and $331 thousand of income tax expense, the effective tax rates would have been 19.67% and 18.86% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

**Net Income**

Overall, net income in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was up $6.0 million or 33.9% to $23.5 million as compared to last year's $17.6 million. The biggest contributor to the improvement was net interest income. Net interest income was up $13.4 million or 21.3% with increased interest income accounting for the largest contribution and decreased interest expense contributed at a lower amount. Provision for credit losses for loans and unfunded commitments increased $1.5 million compared to 2024. Noninterest income increased $832 thousand and noninterest expense increased $5.1 million as described above. The Company remains strong, stable, and well capitalized and has the capacity to continue to cover the increased costs of expansion. The Company is optimistic for continued improvement in profitability due to the opportunity for continued expansion in the net interest margin.

ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates and equity prices. The primary market risk to which we are subject is interest rate risk. Much of our interest rate risk arises from the instruments, positions and transactions entered for purposes other than trading such as loans, available for sale securities, interest-bearing deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term borrowings. Interest rate risk occurs when interest-bearing assets and liabilities reprice at different times as market interest rates change. For example, if fixed rate assets are funded with variable rate debt, the spread between asset and liability rates will decline or turn negative if rates increase.

Interest rate risk is managed within an overall asset/liability framework. The principal objectives of asset/liability management are to manage sensitivity of net interest spreads and net income to potential changes in interest rates. Funding positions are kept within predetermined limits designed to ensure that risk-taking is not excessive and that liquidity is effectively managed. If our asset/liability management strategies are unsuccessful, our profitability may be adversely affected. The Company employs a sensitivity analysis utilizing interest rate shocks to help in this analysis.

At September 30, 2025, the shocks presented assume an immediate change of rate in the percentages and directions shown:

The Bank's static balance sheet remained mostly neutral in September. In response to falling market rates and rising economic uncertainties, we tempered our new and repricing spread assumptions to be more conservative. The net interest margin represents the forecasted twelve-month margin. The Company also reviews shocks with a 4.00% fluctuation and over a 24-month time frame. The goal of the Company is to gather more core deposits, such as checking and savings accounts. Checking accounts are preferable for the lower cost of funds whereas savings and money market accounts are beneficial due to the variability of the interest in both rate and immediate option to reprice. CD pricing has been more cautious in response to growing market and geopolitical uncertainties.

The Bank was prompt in dropping non-maturity deposit rates in September when the Fed cut their rate. We will have some continued opportunity to be aggressive with future Fed rate cuts, particularly with our higher deposit rates. While net interest income drops in a falling interest rate environment, there are potential revenues and other factors that can insulate the Bank's overall income, such as prepayment penalty fees, mortgage fees, and rate floors. The Bank's monthly cost of funds decreased from 2.83% in June to 2.78% in September. Older loans and investments will continue to reprice higher, in aggregate, in the next twelve months based on current rates. The Bank continues to review and adjust its assumptions concerning decay rates, deposit betas, key rate ties, and loan prepayment speeds. Rates are modified as index rates change. Directional changes shown above are within the Bank's risk tolerance. The effect of the rate shocks may be mitigated to the extent that not all lines of business are directly tied to an external index and actual balance sheet composition may differ from prediction. The Company must continue its trajectory of improved pricing discipline for its new loans and deposits.

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company's management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS

Except as indicated below, there have been no material changes in the Company's risk factors from those disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**Inflation Risk**

Periods of inflation may impact our profitability by negatively impacting our fixed costs and expenses, including increasing funding costs and expense related to talent acquisition and retention. Additionally, inflation may lead to a decrease in our customers' purchasing power and negatively affect the need or demand for our products and services. If significant inflation continues, our business could also be negatively affected by, among other things, increased default rates leading to credit losses which could decrease our appetite for new credit extensions.

**Quantitative Modeling Risk**

We rely on quantitative modeling to measure risks and to estimate certain financial values. Quantitative models may be used to help manage certain aspects of our business and to assist with certain business decisions, including estimating expected lifetime credit losses, measuring the fair value of financial instruments when reliable market prices are unavailable, estimating the effects of changing interest rates and other market measures on our financial condition and results of operations, managing risk, and for capital planning purposes. All models have certain limitations. For instance, these methodologies inherently rely on assumptions, historical analyses, and correlations which may not capture or fully incorporate all relevant conditions and circumstances. As a consequence, such limitations may result in losses, particularly in times of market distress. Additionally, as businesses and markets continue to rapidly evolve, our measurements may not accurately reflect this evolution. Even if the underlying assumptions and historical correlations used in our models are adequate, our models may be deficient due to errors in computer code, inaccurate data, misuse of data, or the use of a model for a purpose outside the scope of the model's design.

Reliance on such models presents the risk that our resulting business decisions will be adversely affected due to incorrect, missing, or misleading information. If our models fail to produce reliable results on an ongoing basis, we may not make appropriate risk management, capital planning, or other business or financial decisions. Strategies that we employ to manage and govern the risks associated with our use of models may not be effective or fully reliable. Also, information that we provide to the public or regulators based on poorly designed models could be inaccurate or misleading.

**Trade Policy Risk**

The ongoing trade policies and tariff initiatives being pursued by the U.S. government under the administration of President Trump could present potential risks unique to the markets within which we operate. Many of our commercial borrowers operate in agriculture, food processing, and manufacturing; industries that are particularly sensitive to changes in trade policy. The imposition of tariffs on imported goods, the added potential for retaliatory tariffs by foreign governments, or other similar restrictions on international trade could increase costs for domestic manufacturers and consumers alike, as well as reduce demand abroad for U.S. exports, and disrupt supply chains. Any prolonged trade tensions could negatively impact the broader economic environment in the Midwest where the Bank operates, potentially leading to reduced consumer spending, lower economic growth, and decreased demand for other banking products and services. If these factors lead to financial strain on our borrowers, we may experience increased credit risk, higher loan delinquencies, and a potential decline in loan demand.

As a result, our financial performance, including credit quality and loan growth, could be adversely affected by these policy changes. While we actively monitor these developments and work closely with our agricultural customers, there is no assurance

------

that we can fully mitigate the risks posed by tariff initiatives or other trade-related disruptions. These factors could materially affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

**Emerging financial technologies such as digital assets, stablecoins, and distributed ledger systems may reduce the demand for traditional banking services and create new competitive pressures that adversely affect our business.**

The rapid development and increasing regulatory acceptance of financial technologies such as digital assets (including cryptocurrencies and tokenized money), stablecoins, and distributed ledger technologies (DLT) could materially alter the landscape of financial services in the coming years. These technologies enable near-instantaneous value transfer, programmable money, and peer-to-peer settlement mechanisms, many of which may operate outside the traditional banking system.

Large technology companies, fintech platforms, and digital asset service providers—some of which are not subject to the same regulatory or capital constraints as depository institutions—are increasingly offering products that compete with core banking functions, such as payments, custody, lending, and liquidity management. The adoption of digital financial infrastructure by governments or central banks, such as central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), or by major corporate platforms could accelerate these shifts.

As a relatively small financial institution, we may be disproportionately impacted by these developments. Our ability to compete with larger institutions or well-capitalized technology entrants in developing or integrating such technologies is limited by our size, risk appetite, and regulatory obligations. A failure to adapt to or participate in these emerging ecosystems—either directly or through strategic partnerships—could erode our relevance in key banking functions, reduce our share of customer deposits and fee income, and adversely affect our long-term growth prospects and financial condition.

**Risks Related to Regulation of Payment Stablecoins and Digital Assets**

Recent federal legislation, including the GENIUS Act enacted in mid-2025, established new regulatory requirements for payment stablecoins issued by banking organizations and their subsidiaries. Compliance with these requirements involves maintaining adequate asset reserves, extensive reporting obligations, independent audits, and increased supervisory oversight. Our potential involvement in issuing or supporting payment stablecoins could expose us to regulatory compliance risks, increased operational costs, and evolving legal uncertainties. Additionally, rapid changes in digital asset regulation or adverse regulatory interpretations could adversely affect our business strategies and prospects in this emerging market, which could materially impact our financial condition and results of operations.

**Compliance Obligations of Bank Holding Companies and Insured Depositories**

We and our bank subsidiary operate within an extensive and evolving framework of federal and state laws, regulations, and supervisory expectations that govern nearly all aspects of our operations. As a bank holding company, we are subject to the Bank Holding Company Act and related regulations, while our bank is overseen by federal and state regulators through examination and enforcement authority. We are also subject to numerous requirements under consumer protection, privacy, anti-money laundering, sanctions, community reinvestment, and securities laws, as well as payment system and third-party risk management standards.

These obligations restrict permissible activities, affect capital, liquidity, and growth strategies, and impose significant compliance and operational costs. Examinations may result in Matters Requiring Attention or enforcement actions, and deficiencies in our risk, compliance, or governance programs could lead to penalties, remediation orders, restrictions on dividends or expansion, and reputational harm.

The regulatory landscape continues to evolve through new legislation, rulemaking, and supervisory guidance in areas such as consumer protection, AML and sanctions, fintech partnerships, model risk, payments modernization, data privacy, and fair access. Future changes—or differing federal and state requirements—could increase compliance costs, limit product or service offerings, or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

**"Debanking," Fair Access, and Supervisory Expectations**

Evolving federal and state scrutiny of account onboarding, offboarding, and access to banking services—often referred to as "debanking" or "fair access"—could increase our compliance, legal, and reputational risks. Policymakers and regulators are reconsidering the role of "reputation risk" in supervision and adopting laws that limit account decisions based on perceived political or non-risk factors. These measures may conflict with each other or with our obligations under existing law.

------

Supervisory expectations emphasizing individualized, risk-based decisions and enhanced documentation may require policy and system changes and greater resources. We could face criticism or penalties if regulators find our account actions insufficiently supported or discriminatory, or if we must maintain accounts beyond our risk appetite. Conflicting standards and rising public attention to alleged "debanking" may increase complaint volume, compliance costs, and reputational exposure. Any of these developments could materially affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

**Data Privacy, Cybersecurity, and Information Security Compliance**

We are subject to extensive federal and state data privacy, cybersecurity, and information security requirements. Expanding state privacy regimes, incident-notification rules, and vendor-oversight standards have increased the complexity and cost of compliance, particularly across multiple jurisdictions and third-party relationships. Failure to comply with applicable laws or to safeguard customer or confidential information could result in regulatory inquiries, penalties, litigation, remediation costs, and reputational harm. Ongoing changes in privacy and cybersecurity laws may require additional investment in systems, controls, and personnel, and could adversely affect our operations and financial results.

**Consumer Compliance, CRA Modernization, and Fair Lending**

We are subject to extensive consumer protection, fair lending, and Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) obligations. CRA modernization and evolving fair-lending expectations may require changes to our assessment areas, data collection, monitoring, product offerings, and governance. The use of models or analytics in pricing, marketing, or underwriting increases fair-lending and conduct risk if not properly controlled. Failure to meet supervisory expectations could result in criticism, penalties, remediation obligations, restrictions on growth or activities, or reputational harm.

**Payments, Fee Practices, and Operational Risk**

Regulatory and supervisory scrutiny of consumer fees—including overdraft and other service charges—continues to evolve. Changes to fee practices, disclosure requirements, or remediation obligations could reduce noninterest income and increase compliance costs. Adoption of faster payment systems and real-time networks heightens operational, fraud, and funds-availability risks, requiring ongoing enhancements to risk controls, vendor oversight, and reconciliation processes. Network rule changes or settlement obligations could further increase costs or operational complexity and adversely affect our results.

**Consumer Credit Normalization and Portfolio Risk**

Consumer credit performance is normalizing from historically strong conditions, reflecting higher interest rates, elevated prices, and reduced savings. Deterioration in borrower cash flows, labor-market weakness, or persistent inflation could increase delinquencies and charge-offs in our retail portfolios, including unsecured consumer loans. Higher loss emergence would increase our allowance for credit losses under CECL, potentially leading to earnings volatility, elevated provision levels, and slower loan growth.
