NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2022
(unaudited, dollars in thousands except share and per share data)
NOTE 1 – Basis of Presentation and Market Conditions
German American Bancorp, Inc. operates primarily in the banking industry. The accounting and reporting policies of German American Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company") conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods reported have been included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements and notes be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Certain items included in the prior period financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. There was no effect on net income or total shareholders' equity based on these reclassifications.
NOTE 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Yet Adopted
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. These amendments provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. It is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of adopting this standard over the effective period and does not expect it to have a material impact.
On March 31, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures" which eliminates the troubled debt restructuring (TDR) recognition and measurement guidance and instead requires an entity to evaluate whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The amendments also enhance existing disclosures and include new disclosure requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. To improve consistency for vintage disclosures, the ASU requires that public business entities disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For entities that have not adopted ASU 2016-13, the effective dates for the amendments are the same as the effective dates in ASU 2016-13. Early adoption is permitted if ASU 2016-13 has been adopted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity elects to adopt the amendments in an interim period, the guidance should be applied as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

Available-for-sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions are evaluated for impairment related to credit losses at least quarterly. For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company assesses whether we intend to sell, or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is reduced to fair value with an allowance. For available-for sale debt securities that do not meet the criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair

NOTE 4 - Securities (continued)
value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security and the issuer, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, we compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. No allowance for credit losses for available-for-sale debt securities was needed at March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities totaled $10,249 at March 31, 2022 and $8,990 at December 31, 2021. Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.
The Company’s equity securities are listed as Other Investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and consist of one non-controlling investment in a single banking organization at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The original investment totaled $1,350 and other-than-temporary impairment was previously recorded totaling $997. The Company’s equity securities are considered not to have readily determinable fair value and are carried at cost and evaluated for impairment. At March 31, 2022, there was no additional impairment recognized through earnings.
NOTE 5 – Derivatives
The Company executes interest rate swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. The notional amounts of these interest rate swaps and the offsetting counterparty derivative instruments were $142,411 at March 31, 2022 and $143,593 at December 31, 2021. These interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting interest rate swaps that the Company executes with a third party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions with approved, reputable, independent counterparties with substantially matching terms. The agreements are considered stand-alone derivatives and changes in the fair value of derivatives are reported in earnings as non-interest income.
Credit risk arises from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Company’s exposure is limited to the replacement value of the contracts rather than the notional, principal or contract amounts. There are provisions in the agreements with the counterparties that allow for certain unsecured credit exposure up to an agreed threshold. Exposures in excess of the agreed thresholds are collateralized. In addition, the Company minimizes credit risk through credit approvals, limits, and monitoring procedures.
The following table reflects the fair value hedges included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of:

|  | March 31, 2022 |  | December 31, 2021
|  | Notional Amount |  | Fair Value |  | Notional Amount |  | Fair Value

As previously disclosed, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law in March 2020, providing an approximately $2 trillion stimulus package that included direct payments to individual taxpayers, economic stimulus to significantly impacted industry sectors, emergency funding for hospitals and providers, small business loans, increased unemployment benefits, and a variety of tax incentives. For small businesses, eligible nonprofits and certain others, the CARES Act established a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), a lending program administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) that is intended to incentivize participants to retain their employees by providing them with loans that are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government and subject to forgiveness if program guidelines are met. The PPP was later extended and modified by the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act in April 2020 and the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act in June 2020, with PPP funding under this initial round expiring on August 8, 2020.
In December 2020, the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act was signed into law as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (the “CAA”). In addition to direct stimulus payments and other aid, this Act provided for a second round of PPP loans through March 31, 2021. Under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 and the PPP Extension Act of 2021, which were both enacted during March 2021, additional funds were provided for the program and the

deadline for applying for PPP loans was extended through May 31, 2021 (with the SBA given until June 30, 2021 to process loan applications).
The Company actively participated in both rounds of the PPP, lending funds primarily to its existing loan and/or deposit customers. The PPP loans carry an interest rate of 1.00% and included a processing fee that varied depending on the balance of the loan at origination (which fee is recognized over the life of the loan). The vast majority of the Company’s PPP loans made during 2020 had two-year maturities, while PPP loans made during 2021 have five-year maturities.
Under the first round of the PPP (i.e., the 2020 round), the Company originated loans totaling approximately $351,260 in principal amount, with approximately $12,024 of related net processing fees on 3,070 PPP loan relationships. As of March 31, 2022, $350,529 of those first round PPP loans had been forgiven by the SBA and repaid to the Company pursuant to the terms of the program, with $12,022 in net processing fees having been recognized by the Company.
Under the second round of the PPP (i.e., the 2021 round), the Company originated loans totaling approximately $157,042 in principal amount, with approximately $9,022 of related net processing fees, on 2,601 PPP loan relationships. As of March 31, 2022, $150,850 of second round PPP loans had been forgiven by the SBA and repaid to the Company, with $8,713 in net processing fees having been recognized by the Company. As a result of the forgiveness of the first and second round PPP loans, $6,923 of total PPP loans remain outstanding as of March 31, 2022, with approximately $311 of net fees remaining deferred on that date.

NOTE 6 - Loans (continued)
The Company utilizes the Static Pool methodology in determining expected future credit losses. Static pool analysis means segmenting and tracking loans over a period of time based on similar risk characteristics such as loan structure, collateral type, industry of borrower and concentrations, contractual terms and credit risk indicators. Static pool calculates a loss rate on a closed pool of loans that existed on a specified start date based upon the remaining life of each segment.
The Company’s expected loss estimate is anchored in historical credit loss experience, with an emphasis on all available portfolio data. The Company's historical look-back period includes January 2014 through the current period, on a monthly basis.
Qualitative reserves reflect management’s overall estimate of the extent to which current expected credit losses on collectively evaluated loans will differ from historical loss experience. The analysis takes into consideration industry and collateral concentrations, acquired loan portfolio characteristics and other credit-related analytics as deemed appropriate. Management attempts to quantify qualitative reserves whenever possible.
The Company estimates the allowance balance using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for changes in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, changes in environmental conditions, unemployment rates, risk classifications and collateral values. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pooled) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Based on the potential increased losses related to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the bank has considered this loss experience may align with loss experience from the recessionary period from 2008-2011 and qualitative adjustments have been made accordingly.
Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not included in the collective evaluation. When the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty at the reporting date and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date adjusted for selling costs.
Post CUB acquisition and for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the allowance for credit losses decreased primarily due to a decline in individually analyzed loans as well as a decline in the reserve attributable to pandemic-related stressed sectors. While there continues to be great uncertainty related to COVID-19 on our borrowers and communities, we have recognized improvements in employment and gross domestic product which are key indicators utilized in our forecasting for our allowance calculations. Since PPP loans are guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (SBA), they have minimal impact on the allowance for credit losses.
All classes of loans, including loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality, are generally placed on non-accrual status when scheduled principal or interest payments are past due for 90 days or more or when the borrower’s ability to repay becomes doubtful. For purchased loans, the determination is made at the time of acquisition as well as over the life of the loan. Uncollected accrued interest for each class of loans is reversed against income at the time a loan is placed on non-accrual. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. All classes of loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. Loans are typically charged-off at 180 days past due, or earlier if deemed uncollectible. Exceptions to the non-accrual and charge-off policies are made when the loan is well secured and in the process of collection.

Troubled Debt Restructurings:
In certain instances, the Company may choose to restructure the contractual terms of loans. A troubled debt restructuring occurs when the Bank grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider due to a borrower’s financial difficulty. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without modification. This evaluation is performed under the Company’s internal underwriting policy. The Company uses the same methodology for loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality as for all other loans when determining whether the loan is a troubled debt restructuring.

NOTE 6 - Loans (continued)
As of March 31, 2022, the Company had troubled debt restructurings totaling $102. The Company had no specific allocation of allowance for these loans at March 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had troubled debt restructurings totaling $104. The Company had no specific allocation of allowance for these loans at December 31, 2021.
The Company had not committed to lending any additional amounts as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no loans modified as troubled debt restructurings. Additionally, there were no loans modified as troubled debt restructurings for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms.
Loan Modifications and Troubled Debt Restructurings due to COVID-19
On April 7, 2020, the federal banking regulators issued a revised Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions, which, among other things, encouraged financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations because of the effects of COVID-19, and stated that institutions generally do not need to categorize COVID-19-related modifications as troubled debt restructurings and that the agencies will not direct supervised institutions to automatically categorize all COVID-19 related loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings. Similarly, under the CARES Act, provisions were included that allow for loan modifications to not be classified as TDRs if certain criteria are met. This TDR exemption, which was set to expire on December 31, 2020, was extended under the CAA to, effectively, January 1, 2022.
In response to requests from borrowers who had experienced pandemic-related business or personal cash flow interruptions, and in accordance with regulatory guidance, the Company began making short-term loan modifications involving both partial and full payment deferrals in April 2020. As of both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had just one commercial real estate loan, in the principal amount of $3.5 million, with a payment modification that was still in effect, with such credit relationship making full interest payments.

Credit Quality Indicators:
The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company classifies loans as to credit risk by individually analyzing loans. This analysis includes commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate loans, and agricultural loans with an outstanding balance greater than $250. This analysis is typically performed on at least an annual basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans.

NOTE 7 – Repurchase Agreements Accounted for as Secured Borrowings
Repurchase agreements are short-term borrowings included in FHLB Advances and Other Borrowings and mature overnight and continuously. Repurchase agreements, which were secured by mortgage-backed securities, totaled $53,736 and $68,328 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Risk could arise when the collateral pledged to a repurchase agreement declines in fair value. The Company minimizes risk by consistently monitoring the value of the collateral pledged. At the point in time where the collateral has declined in fair value, the Company is required to provide additional collateral based on the value of the underlying securities.
NOTE 8 – Segment Information
The Company’s operations include three primary segments: core banking, wealth management services, and insurance operations. The core banking segment involves attracting deposits from the general public and using such funds to originate consumer, commercial and agricultural, commercial and agricultural real estate, and residential mortgage loans, primarily in the Company’s local markets. The core banking segment also involves the sale of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market. The wealth management segment involves providing trust, investment advisory, brokerage and retirement planning services to customers. The insurance segment offers a full range of personal and corporate property and casualty insurance products, primarily in the Company’s banking subsidiary’s local markets.
The core banking segment is comprised by the Company’s banking subsidiary, German American Bank, which operated through 77 banking offices at March 31, 2022. Net interest income from loans and investments funded by deposits and borrowings is the primary revenue for the core-banking segment. The wealth management segment’s revenues are comprised primarily of fees generated by the trust operations of the Company’s banking subsidiary and by German American Investment Services, Inc. These fees are derived by providing trust, investment advisory, brokerage and retirement planning services to its customers. The insurance segment primarily consists of German American Insurance, Inc., which provides a full line of

NOTE 9 – Stock Repurchase Plan
On January 31, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to one million shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock. On a share basis, the amount of common stock subject to the repurchase plan represented approximately 3% of the Company’s outstanding shares at the time it was approved. The Company is not obligated to purchase shares under the plan, and the plan may be discontinued at any time. The actual timing, number and share price of shares purchased under the repurchase plan will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend upon such factors as the market price of the stock, general market and economic conditions and applicable legal requirements. At the time it approved the new plan, the Board also terminated a similar plan that had been adopted in January 2021. At the time of its termination, the Company had been authorized to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock under the 2021 repurchase plan. The Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock under the 2021 repurchase plan and has not repurchased any shares under the 2022 repurchase plan.
NOTE 10 – Equity Plans and Equity Based Compensation
During the periods presented, the Company maintained two equity incentive plans under which stock options, restricted stock, and other equity incentive awards could be granted. Those plans include (i) the Company’s 2009 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan, under which no new grants may be made, and (ii) the Company’s 2019 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 LTI Plan”). The 2019 LTI Plan, which authorizes a maximum aggregate issuance of 1,000,000 shares of common stock (subject to certain permitted adjustments), became effective on May 16, 2019, following approval of the Company’s shareholders. It will remain in effect until May 16, 2029, or until all shares of common stock subject to the 2019 LTI Plan are distributed, all awards have expired or terminated, or the plan is terminated pursuant to its terms, whichever occurs first.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company granted no options. The Company recorded no stock compensation expense applicable to options during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. In addition, there was no unrecognized option expense.
During the periods presented, awards of long-term incentives were granted in the form of restricted stock. In 2019 and prior, awards that were granted to management and selected other employees under the Company's management incentive plan were granted in tandem with cash credit entitlements in the form of 60% restricted stock grants and 40% cash credit entitlements. In 2020, awards granted under the management incentive plan were granted in tandem with cash credit entitlements in the form of 66.67% restricted stock grants and 33.33% cash credit entitlements. In 2019 and prior, the restricted stock grants and tandem cash credit entitlements, generally, vested in three annual installments of 33.33% each. In 2020, 100% of the cash portion of an award vested towards the end of the year in which the grant was made, followed by the restricted stock grants vesting 50% in each of the 2nd and 3rd years. Beginning in 2021, for named executive officers, awards are granted in the form of 100% restricted stock grants which vest in one-third installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the award date. Awards that are granted to directors as additional retainers for their services do not include any cash credit entitlement. These director restricted stock grants are subject to forfeiture in the event that the recipient of the grant does not continue in service as a director of the Company through December 31 of the year after grant or does not satisfy certain meeting attendance requirements, at which time they generally vest 100 percent. For measuring compensation costs, restricted stock awards are valued based upon the market value of the common shares on the date of grant. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company granted awards of 63,258 shares of restricted stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company granted awards of 44,123 shares of restricted stock. Total unvested restricted stock awards at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were 128,360 and 67,160, respectively.

Unrecognized expense associated with the restricted stock grants and cash entitlements totaled $5,005 and $4,083 as of March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The Company’s shareholders approved the Company’s 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan on May 16, 2019, as well as an Amended and Restated 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan on May 21, 2020, which was amended and restated to reflect certain clarifying changes (the "2019 ESPP"). The 2019 ESPP replaced the Company's 2009 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which expired by its own terms on August 16, 2019. The 2019 ESPP, which became effective as of October 1, 2019, provides for a series of 3-month offering periods, commencing on the first day and ending on the last trading day of each calendar quarter, for the purchase of the Company’s common stock by participating employees. The purchase price of the shares has been set at 95% of the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the offering period. A total of 750,000 common shares has been reserved for issuance under the 2019 ESPP. The 2019 ESPP will continue until September 30, 2029, or, if earlier, until all of the shares of common stock allocated to the 2019 ESPP have been purchased. Funding for the purchase of common stock is from employee and Company contributions.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $14 of expense related to the employee stock purchase plan resulting in $11 net of tax. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded $10 of expense, $7 net of tax, for the employee stock purchase plan. There was no unrecognized compensation expense as of March 31, 2022 and 2021 for the employee stock purchase plan. No stock options were outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
NOTE 11 – Fair Value
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:
Investment Securities: The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For investment securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar investment securities (Level 2). For investment securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar investment securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Level 3 pricing is obtained from a third-party based upon similar trades that are not traded frequently without adjustment by the Company. At

(unaudited, dollars in thousands except share and per share data)
NOTE 11 - Fair Value (continued)
March 31, 2022, the Company held Level 3 securities with a fair value of $100. Absent the credit rating, significant assumptions must be made such that the credit risk input becomes an unobservable input and thus these investment securities are reported by the Company in a Level 3 classification.
Derivatives: The fair values of derivatives are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).
Individually Analyzed Loans: Fair values for collateral dependent loans are generally based on appraisals obtained from licensed real estate appraisers and in certain circumstances includes consideration of offers obtained to purchase properties prior to foreclosure. Appraisals for commercial real estate generally use three methods to derive value: cost, sales or market comparison and income approach. The cost method bases value in the cost to replace the current property. Value of market comparison approach evaluates the sales price of similar properties in the same market area. The income approach considers net operating income generated by the property and an investor's required return. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Comparable sales adjustments are based on known sales prices of similar type and similar use properties and duration of time that the property has been on the market to sell. Such adjustments made in the appraisal process are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.
Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the Company’s Risk Management Area reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal. In determining the value of impaired collateral dependent loans and other real estate owned, significant unobservable inputs may be used which include: physical condition of comparable properties sold, net operating income generated by the property and investor rates of return.
Other Real Estate: Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as other real estate (ORE) are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property utilizing similar techniques as discussed above for Impaired Loans, resulting in a Level 3 classification. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, impairment loss is recognized.
Loans Held-for-Sale: The fair values of loans held for sale are determined by using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan resulting in a Level 2 classification.

NOTE 13 - Revenue Recognition
The following table presents non-interest income, segregated by revenue streams in-scope and out-of-scope of FASB ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Wealth management fees are included in the wealth management services segment while insurance revenues are included in the insurance segment. All other revenue streams are primarily included in the banking segment.

Total Non-interest Income |  | $ | 16,188 |  |  | $ | 15,037 |

A description of the Company’s revenue streams accounted for under Topic 606 follows:
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts: The Company earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as stop payment charges and statement rendering, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed (the point in time the Company fills the customer's request). Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs.
Interchange Fee Income: The Company earns interchange fees from debit/credit cardholder transactions conducted through various payment networks. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder.
Wealth Management Fees: The Company earns wealth management fees from its contracts with trust and brokerage customers to manage assets for investment and/or to transact their accounts. These fees are primarily earned over time as the Company provides the contracted monthly or quarterly services and are generally assessed based on the market value of assets under management at month-end. Fees that are transaction based, including trade execution services, are recognized at the point in time that the transaction is executed (trade date).

NOTE 13 - Revenue Recognition (continued)
Insurance Revenues: The Company earns insurance revenue from commissions derived from the sale of personal and corporate property and casualty insurance products. These commissions are primarily earned over time as the Company provides the contracted insurance product to customers.
NOTE 14 – Leases
At the inception of a contract, an entity should determine whether the contract contains a lease. Topic 842 defines a lease as a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of an identified asset means that the customer has both (1) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and (2) the right to direct the use of the asset.
German American has finance leases for branch offices as well as operating leases for branch offices, ATM locations and certain office equipment. The right-of-use asset is included in the 'Premises, Furniture and Equipment, Net' line of the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The lease liability is included in the 'Accrued Interest Payable and Other Liabilities' line of the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The Company used the implicit lease rate when determining the present value of lease payments for finance leases. The present value of lease payments for operating leases was determined using the incremental borrowing rate as of the date the Company adopted this standard.
The components of lease expense were as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended |  | Three Months Ended

As of the closing of the transaction, CUB had total assets of approximately $1,108,546 (unaudited), total loans of approximately $683,807 (unaudited), and total deposits of approximately $930,533 (unaudited). The Company accounted for the transaction under the acquisition method of accounting which means these financial assets and liabilities were recorded at fair value at the day of acquisition. The fair value of the common shares issued as part of the consideration paid for CUB was based upon the closing price of the Company's common shares on the acquisition date. The fair value estimates included in these financial statements are based on preliminary valuations; certain loan, deferred tax, and premises and equipment measurements have not been finalized and are subject to change. The Company does not expect material variances from these estimates and expects that final valuation estimates will be completed prior to December 31, 2022.
In accordance with ASC 805, the Company has expensed approximately $11,705 of direct acquisition costs and recorded $56,859 of goodwill and $7,572 of intangible assets. The goodwill of $56,859 arising from the acquisition consisted largely of synergies and the cost savings resulting from the combining of the operations of the companies. This goodwill will be evaluated annually for impairment and is non-deductible for tax purposes. The intangible assets are related to core deposits and are being amortized over 8 years.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
GERMAN AMERICAN BANCORP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
German American Bancorp, Inc. is a Nasdaq-traded (symbol: GABC) financial holding company based in Jasper, Indiana. German American, through its banking subsidiary German American Bank, operates 77 banking offices in 19 contiguous southern Indiana counties and 14 Kentucky counties. The Company also owns an investment brokerage subsidiary (German American Investment Services, Inc.) and a full line property and casualty insurance agency (German American Insurance, Inc.).
Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis, as elsewhere in this Report, when we use the term “Company,” we will usually be referring to the business and affairs (financial and otherwise) of German American Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates as a whole. Occasionally, we will refer to the term “parent company” or “holding company” when we mean to refer to only German American Bancorp, Inc.
This section presents an analysis of the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and the consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other financial data presented elsewhere herein and with the financial statements and other financial data, as well as the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW
This updated discussion should be read in conjunction with the Management Overview that was included in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 totaled $9,067,000, or $0.31 per share, a decline of 58% on a per share basis compared with the first quarter 2021 net income of $19,557,000, or $0.74 per share. The change in net income during the first quarter of 2022, compared with the first quarter of 2021, was largely impacted by acquisition-related expenses for the CUB transaction that closed on January 1, 2022. The first quarter of 2022 results of operations included acquisition-related expenses of $11,705,000 ($8,908,000 or $0.30 per share, on an after tax basis) and also included Day 1 provision for credit losses under the CECL model of $6,300,000 ($4,725,000 or $0.16 per share, on an after tax basis).
On January 1, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of Citizens Union Bancorp of Shelbyville, Inc. (“CUB”). CUB, headquartered in Shelbyville, Kentucky, operated 15 retail banking offices located in Shelby, Jefferson, Spencer, Bullitt, Oldham, Owen, Gallatin and Hardin counties in Kentucky through its banking subsidiary, Citizens Union Bank of Shelbyville, Inc. As of the closing of the transaction, CUB had total assets of approximately $1.109 billion, total loans of approximately $683.8 million, and total deposits of approximately $930.5 million. The Company issued approximately 2.9 million shares of its common stock, and paid approximately $50.8 million in cash, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of CUB.
For further information regarding this acquisition, see Note 15 (Business Combinations) in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Report.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The financial condition and results of operations for the Company presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements, accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and selected financial data appearing elsewhere within this Report, are, to a large degree, dependent upon the Company’s accounting policies. The selection of and application of these policies involve estimates, judgments, and uncertainties that are subject to change. The critical accounting policies and estimates that the Company has determined to be the most susceptible to change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the valuation of securities available for sale, income tax expense, and the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets.
39

Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to cover the estimated expected credit losses over the expected contractual life of the loan portfolio. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off. A provision for credit losses is charged to operations based on management’s periodic evaluation of the necessary allowance balance. Evaluations are conducted at least quarterly and more often if deemed necessary. The ultimate recovery of all loans is susceptible to future market factors beyond the Company’s control.
The Company has an established process to determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. The determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires significant estimates, including the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on individually analyzed loans, estimated losses on other classified loans and pools of homogeneous loans, and consideration of past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts and other factors, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The allowance consists of two components of allocations, specific and general. These two components represent the total allowance for credit losses deemed adequate to cover expected credit losses over the expected life of the loan portfolio.
Commercial and agricultural loans are subject to a standardized grading process administered by an internal loan review function. The need for specific reserves is considered for credits when: (a) the customer’s cash flow or net worth appears insufficient to repay the loan; (b) the loan has been criticized in a regulatory examination; (c) the loan is on non-accrual; or (d) other reasons where the ultimate collectability of the loan is in question, or the loan characteristics require special monitoring.
Specific reserves on individually analyzed loans are determined by comparing the loan balance to the present value of expected cash flows or expected collateral proceeds. Allocations are also applied to categories of loans not individually analyzed but for which the rate of loss is expected to be greater than other similar type loans, including non-performing consumer or residential real estate loans. Such allocations are based on past loss experience, reasonable and supportable forecasts and information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values.
General allocations are made for commercial and agricultural loans that are graded as substandard and special mention, but are not individually analyzed for specific reserves as well as other pools of loans, including non-classified loans, homogeneous portfolios of consumer and residential real estate loans, and loans within certain industry categories believed to present unique risk of loss. General allocations of the allowance are primarily made based on historical averages for loan losses for these portfolios along with reasonable and supportable forecasts, judgmentally adjusted for economic, external and internal quantitative and qualitative factors and portfolio trends. Economic factors include evaluating changes in international, national, regional and local economic and business conditions that affect the collectability of the loan portfolio. Internal factors include evaluating changes in lending policies and procedures; changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; and changes in experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff.
The allowance for credit losses for loans represents management’s estimate of all expected credit losses over the expected contractual life of the loan portfolio. Determining the appropriateness and adequacy of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Subsequent evaluations of the loan portfolio may result in significant changes in the allowance for credit losses in future periods.
Securities Valuation
Available-for-sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions are evaluated for impairment related to credit losses at least quarterly. For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company assesses whether we intend to sell, or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For available-for sale debt securities that do not meet the criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security and the issuer, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the Company compares the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in
40

other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. No allowance for credit losses for available-for-sale debt securities was needed at March 31, 2022. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. As of March 31, 2022, gross unrealized gains on the securities available-for-sale portfolio totaled approximately $6,699,000 and gross unrealized losses totaled approximately $155,992,000 net of applicable taxes is included in other comprehensive income.
Equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values are carried at cost, less impairment with observable price changes being recognized in earnings.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense involves estimates related to the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and loss contingencies related to exposure from tax examinations presumed to occur.
A valuation allowance reduces deferred tax assets to the amount management believes is more likely than not to be realized. In evaluating the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers the likelihood that sufficient taxable income of appropriate character will be generated within carry-back and carry-forward periods, including consideration of available tax planning strategies. Tax-related loss contingencies, including assessments arising from tax examinations and tax strategies, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. In considering the likelihood of loss, management considers the nature of the contingency, the progress of any examination or related protest or appeal, the views of legal counsel and other advisors, experience of the Company or other enterprises in similar matters, if any, and management’s intended response to any assessment.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill resulting from business combinations represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill resulting from business combinations is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually. The Company has selected December 31 as the date to perform the annual impairment test. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the Company’s balance sheet. No impairment to Goodwill was indicated based on year-end testing and no triggering events occurred in 2022 causing reassessment.
Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Other intangible assets consist of core deposit and acquired customer relationship intangible assets. They are initially measured at fair value and then are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 6 to 10 years.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income:
Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 totaled $9,067,000, or $0.31 per share, a decline of 58% on a per share basis compared with the first quarter 2021 net income of $19,557,000, or $0.74 per share. The change in net income during the first quarter of 2022, compared with the first quarter of 2021, was largely impacted by acquisition-related expenses for the CUB transaction that closed on January 1, 2022. The first quarter of 2022 results of operations included acquisition-related expenses of $11,705,000 ($8,908,000 or $0.30 per share, on an after tax basis) and also included Day 1 provision for credit losses under the CECL model of $6,300,000 ($4,725,000 or $0.16 per share, on an after tax basis).
Net Interest Income:
Net interest income is the Company’s single largest source of earnings, and represents the difference between interest and fees realized on earning assets, less interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Several factors contribute to the determination of net interest income and net interest margin, including the volume and mix of earning assets, interest rates, and income taxes. Many factors affecting net interest income are subject to control by management policies and actions. Factors beyond the control of management include the general level of credit and deposit demand, Federal Reserve Board monetary policy, and changes in tax laws.

(1)Effective tax rates were determined as though interest earned on the Company’s investments in municipal bonds and loans was fully taxable.
(2)Loans held-for-sale and non-accruing loans have been included in average loans.
During the first quarter of 2022, net interest income, on a non tax-equivalent basis, totaled $46,908,000, an increase of $7,976,000, or 20%, compared to the first quarter of 2021 net interest income of $38,932,000. The increase in net interest income during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was primarily attributable to a higher level of earning assets driven by both the CUB acquisition and continued deposit growth, which was partially mitigated by a lower level of PPP loan fee recognition.
The tax equivalent net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was 3.13% compared with 3.41% in the first quarter of 2021. The Company's net interest margin in both periods presented has been impacted by fees recognized as a part of the PPP and accretion of loan discounts on acquired loans. The impact of the PPP fees was significantly less in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021.
Fees recognized on PPP loans through net interest income totaled $562,000 during the first quarter of 2022 and $3,008,000 during the first quarter of 2021. The fees recognized related to the PPP contributed approximately 4 basis points to the net interest margin on an annualized basis in the first quarter of 2022 and 25 basis points in the first quarter of 2021. Accretion of loan discounts on acquired loans contributed approximately 7 basis points to the net interest margin in the first quarter of 2022 and 7 basis points in the first quarter of 2021. Accretion of discounts on acquired loans totaled $1,112,000 during the first quarter of 2022 and $867,000 during the first quarter of 2021.

Provision for Credit Losses:
The Company provides for credit losses through regular provisions to the allowance for credit losses. The provision is affected by net charge-offs on loans and changes in specific and general allocations of the allowance. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $5,200,000 compared with a negative provision for credit losses of $1,500,000 during the first quarter of 2021. During the first quarter of 2022, the provision for credit losses included $6,300,000 for the Day 1 CECL addition to the allowance for credit loss related to the CUB acquisition for the non-PCD loans.
Net charge-offs totaled $256,000, or 3 basis points on an annualized basis, of average loans outstanding during the first quarter of 2022 compared with $260,000, or 3 basis points, of average loans during the first quarter of 2021. The negative provisions for credit losses in the first quarter of 2022, excluding the Day 1 CECL addition to the allowance for CUB, and the first quarter 2021 was largely due to declines in certain adversely criticized assets and improvement in certain pandemic-related stressed sectors for which the Company had provided significant levels of allowance for credit losses during 2020.
The provision for credit losses made during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was made at a level deemed necessary by management to absorb expected losses in the loan portfolio. A detailed evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is completed quarterly by management, the results of which are used to determine provision for credit losses. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts along with other qualitative and quantitative factors.
Non-interest Income:
During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, non-interest income totaled $16,188,000, an increase of $1,151,000, or 8%, compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase in non-interest income during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by the CUB acquisition.

Wealth management fees increased $280,000, or 12%, during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was largely attributable to increased assets under management within the Company's wealth management group.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased $1,005,000, or 60%, during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the the first quarter of 2021 was the result of the CUB acquisition as well as increased deposit customer activity.
Insurance revenues increased $429,000, or 13%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was primarily due to increased contingency revenue and improved commercial lines revenue. Contingency revenue during the first quarter of 2022 totaled $1,620,000 compared with $1,445,000 during the first quarter of 2021. Contingency revenue is reflective of claims and loss experience with insurance carriers that the Company represents through its property and casualty insurance agency. Typically, the majority of contingency revenue is recognized during the first quarter of the year.
43

Interchange fee income increased $797,000, or 28%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase in the level of fees during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was related to the CUB acquisition as well as increased card utilization by customers.
Net gains on sales of loans declined $781,000, or 35%, during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The decline in the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was largely related to a lower volume of loans sold and lower pricing levels. Loan sales totaled $52.0 million during the first quarter of 2022 compared with $68.5 million during the first quarter of 2021.
The Company realized $372,000 in gains on sales of securities during the first quarter of 2022 compared with $975,000 during the first quarter of 2021. The sales of securities in all periods was done as part of modest shifts in the allocations within the securities portfolio.

Non-interest Expense:
During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, non-interest expense totaled $48,160,000, an increase of $16,901,000, or 54%, compared with the first quarter of 2021. The first quarter of 2022 non-interest expenses included approximately $11,705,000 of non-recurring acquisition-related expenses for the acquisition of CUB. The primary drivers of the remaining increases in the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 were the operating costs for CUB.

Salaries and benefits increased $5,283,000, or 30%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase in salaries and benefits during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was largely attributable to the CUB acquisition completed on January 1, 2021. The first quarter of 2022 included approximately $1,470,000 of acquisition-related salary and benefit costs of a non-recurring nature with the remainder of the increase due primarily to the salaries and benefits costs for the CUB employee base.
Occupancy, furniture and equipment expense declined $539,000, or 12%, during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The decline during the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 was largely related to operating fewer branch offices from the Company’s existing branch network (excluding the CUB acquisition), which was the result of the Company’s 2021 operating optimization plan, and non-recurring costs associated with the optimization plan in the first quarter of 2021, partially mitigated by the operating costs of the CUB branch network in the first quarter of 2022.
Data processing fees increased $5,981,000, or 343%, during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was largely driven by acquisition-related costs which totaled approximately $4,973,000 during the first quarter of 2022.
Professional fees increased $1,203,000, or 104%, in the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase during the first quarter of 2022 was due in large part to professional fees associated with the CUB acquisition. Merger and acquisition related professional fees totaled approximately $1,336,000 during the first quarter of 2022.
Other operating expenses increased $4,218,000, or 97%, during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 was largely attributable to acquisition-
44

related costs that totaled approximately $3,733,000 in the first quarter of 2022. The acquisition-related costs were primarily vendor contract termination costs.

Income Taxes:
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 6.9% and 19.2%, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The lower effective tax rate during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the first quarter of 2021 was the result of non-taxable sources of income being a greater component of pre-tax income. The lower level of pre-tax income in the first quarter of 2022 was driven in large part by acquisition costs and the Day 1 CECL provision associated with the CUB merger. The effective tax rate in all periods presented was lower than the blended statutory rate resulting primarily from the Company’s tax-exempt investment income on securities, loans and company-owned life insurance, income tax credits generated from affordable housing projects, and income generated by subsidiaries domiciled in a state with no state or local income tax.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets for the Company totaled $6.698 billion at March 31, 2022, representing an increase of $1.089 billion compared with year-end 2021. The increase in total assets at March 31, 2022 compared with year-end 2021 was in large part attributable to the acquisition of CUB as well as continued growth in deposits.
Securities available for sale increased $34.0 million as of March 31, 2022 compared with year-end 2021. The increase in the securities portfolio in the first quarter of 2022 was largely the result of increased levels of deposits. The growth in the reported level of the available for sale securities portfolio was tempered by the fair value adjustments on the portfolio caused by the rapid rise in market interest rates during the first quarter of 2022.
March 31, 2022 total loans increased $648.1 million compared with December 31, 2021. The increase in total loans at March 31, 2022, compared with year-end 2021, was largely due to the acquisition of CUB, which was partially offset by a decline in PPP loans. PPP loans, net of deferred fees, totaled $6.6 million at March 31, 2022 compared with $19.5 million at December 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2022, outstanding loans from the CUB acquisition totaled $659.2 million.
Excluding PPP loans and loans acquired through the CUB acquisition, total loans increased $1.7 million, or less than 1% on an annualized basis, at March 31, 2022 compared with December 31, 2021. Commercial and industrial loans increased approximately $21.2 million, or 16% on an annualized basis, during the first quarter of 2022 compared with year-end 2021, commercial real estate loans increased $13.2 million, or 4% on an annualized basis, while agricultural loans seasonally declined $32.3 million, or 36% on an annualized basis. During the first quarter of 2022 compared with year-end 2021, retail loans declined $0.4 million, or less than 1% on an annualized basis.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses totaled $45.1 million at March 31, 2022 compared to $37.0 million at year-end 2021. The allowance for credit losses represented 1.23% of period-end loans at March 31, 2022 and year-end 2021.
The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) ("CECL") on January 1, 2020. The Company added $9.4 million to the allowance for credit losses in conjunction with the closing of the CUB acquisition on January 1, 2022 related to the CUB loan portfolio. Of the increase in the allowance for credit losses for the CUB portfolio, $6.3 million was recorded through the provision for credit losses on "Day 1" under the CECL model for non-PCD loans. The Company also acquired $29.9 million in PCD loans for which the Company recorded a credit adjustment of $3.1 million which was included in the allowance for credit losses.
Under the CECL model, certain acquired loans continue to carry a fair value discount as well as an allowance for credit losses. As of March 31, 2022, the Company held net discounts on acquired loans of $9.2 million which included $4.6 million related to the CUB loan portfolio.
In response to requests from borrowers who had experienced pandemic-related business or personal cash flow interruptions, and in accordance with regulatory guidance, the Company began making short-term loan modifications involving both partial and full payment deferrals in April 2020. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has just one commercial real estate loan, in the principal amount of $3.5 million, with a payment modification that is still in effect, with such credit relationship making full interest payments.

Non-performing loans totaled $15.3 million at March 31, 2022 compared to $14.8 million at year-end 2021. Non-performing loans represented 0.42% of total loans at March 31, 2022 compared to 0.49% at December 31, 2021.

March 31, 2022 total deposits increased $1.085 billion compared to year-end 2021. The increase in total deposits at March 31, 2022 compared with year-end 2021 was largely attributable to the CUB acquisition and continued general inflows of customer deposits. As of March 31, 2022, deposits from the CUB acquisition totaled $893.9 million. Excluding the deposits related to the acquisition, total deposits increased $191.4 million, or 16% on an annualized basis, at March 31, 2022 compared with year-end 2021.

Capital Resources:
As of March 31, 2022, shareholders’ equity declined by $19.5 million to $649.0 million compared with $668.5 million at year-end 2021. The decline in shareholders’ equity was primarily attributable to a decline in accumulated other comprehensive income of $133.9 million related to the decrease in value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio driven by a rapid increase in market interest rates during the first quarter of 2022. Partially mitigating the decline was the issuance of the Company’s common shares in the acquisition of CUB. Approximately 2.9 million shares were issued to CUB shareholders resulting in an increase to shareholders’ equity of $111.9 million. Also mitigating the decline was increased retained earnings of $2.3 million due to net income of $9.1 million, which was partially offset by the payment of $6.8 million in shareholder dividends.
Shareholders’ equity represented 9.7% of total assets at March 31, 2022 and 11.9% of total assets at December 31, 2021. Shareholders’ equity included $190.9 million of goodwill and other intangible assets at March 31, 2022 compared to $127.6 million of goodwill and other intangible assets at December 31, 2021. The increase in goodwill and other intangible assets was attributable to the CUB acquisition.

On January 31, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to 1.0 million shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock. On a share basis, the amount of common stock subject to the new repurchase plan represented approximately 3% of the Company’s outstanding shares on the date it was approved. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under the plan, and the plan may be discontinued at any time. The actual timing, number and share price of shares purchased under the repurchase plan will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend upon such factors as the market price of the stock, general market and economic conditions and applicable legal requirements. At the time it approved the new plan, the Board also terminated a similar plan that had been adopted in January 2021. The Company has not repurchased any shares of common stock under the 2022 repurchase plan.
Federal banking regulations provide guidelines for determining the capital adequacy of bank holding companies and banks. These guidelines provide for a more narrow definition of core capital and assign a measure of risk to the various categories of assets. The Company is required to maintain minimum levels of capital in proportion to total risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet exposures.
The current risk-based capital rules, as adopted by federal banking regulators, are based upon guidelines developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and reflect various requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act (the “Basel III Rules”). The Basel III Rules require banking organizations to, among other things, maintain a minimum ratio of Total Capital to risk-weighted assets, a minimum ratio of Tier 1 Capital to risk-weighted assets, a minimum ratio of “Common Equity Tier 1 Capital” to risk-weighted assets, and a minimum leverage ratio (calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 Capital to adjusted average consolidated assets). In addition, under the Basel III Rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, the Company is required to maintain a 2.5% capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized regulatory capital ratios. At March 31, 2022, the capital levels for the Company and its subsidiary bank remained well in excess of the minimum amounts needed for capital adequacy purposes and the Bank's capital levels met the necessary requirements to be considered well-capitalized.
The table below presents the Company’s consolidated and the subsidiary bank's capital ratios under regulatory guidelines:

|  | 3/31/2022 Ratio |  | 12/31/2021 Ratio |  | Minimum for Capital Adequacy Purposes ⁽¹⁾ |  | Well-Capitalized Guidelines
Total Capital (to Risk Weighted Assets) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Bank |  | 13.71 | % |  | 13.36 | % |  | 8.00 | % |  | 10.00 | %
Tier 1 (Core) Capital (to Risk Weighted Assets) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Consolidated |  | 13.16 | % |  | 14.61 | % |  | 6.00 | % |  | N/A

In December 2018, the federal banking regulators approved a final rule to address changes to credit loss accounting under GAAP, including banking organizations’ implementation of CECL. The final rule provides banking organizations the option to phase in over a three-year period the day-one adverse effects on regulatory capital that may result from the adoption of the new accounting standard. On March 27, 2020, in an action related to the CARES Act, the federal banking regulators announced an interim final rule to delay the estimated impact on regulatory capital stemming from the implementation of CECL. The interim final rule, which was finalized effective September 30, 2020, maintains the three-year transition option in the previous rule and provides banks the option to delay for two years an estimate of CECL’s effect on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology’s effect on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period (five-year transition option). The Company elected to adopt the five-year transition option and, as a result, began the required three-year phase-in by reflecting 25% of the previously deferred estimated capital impact of CECL in its regulatory capital effective January 1, 2022. An additional 25% is to be phased in at the beginning of each subsequent year until fully phased in by January 1, 2025. Under the five-year transition option, the amount of adjustments to regulatory capital that could be deferred until the phase-in period
48

began included both the initial impact of our adoption of CECL at January 1, 2020 and 25% of subsequent changes in our allowance for credit losses during each quarter of the two-year period ended December 31, 2021.
On April 9, 2020, federal banking regulators issued an interim final rule to modify the Basel III regulatory capital rules applicable to banking organizations to allow those organizations participating in the PPP to neutralize the regulatory capital effects of participating in the program. Specifically, the agencies have clarified that banking organizations, including the Company and the Bank, are permitted to assign a zero percent risk weight to PPP loans for purposes of determining risk-weighted assets and risk-based capital ratios.
Liquidity:
The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows details the elements of changes in the Company’s consolidated cash and cash equivalents. Total cash and cash equivalents increased $273.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 ending at $670.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, operating activities resulted in net cash inflows of $46.3 million. Investing activities resulted in net cash inflows of $139.1 million during the three months months ended March 31, 2022. Financing activities resulted in net cash inflows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $88.3 million primarily related to growth in the Company’s deposit portfolio.
The parent company is a corporation separate and distinct from its bank and other subsidiaries. The Company uses funds at the parent-company level to pay dividends to its shareholders, to acquire or make other investments in other businesses or their securities or assets, to repurchase its stock from time to time, and for other general corporate purposes including debt service. The parent company does not have access at the parent-company level to the deposits and certain other sources of funds that are available to its bank subsidiary to support its operations. Instead, the parent company has historically derived most of its revenues from dividends paid to the parent company by its bank subsidiary. The Company’s banking subsidiary is subject to statutory restrictions on its ability to pay dividends to the parent company. The parent company has in recent years supplemented the dividends received from its subsidiaries with borrowings. As of March 31, 2022, the parent company had approximately $32.3 million of cash and cash equivalents available to meet its cash flow needs.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS
The Company from time to time in its oral and written communications makes statements relating to its expectations regarding the future. These types of statements are considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company may include forward-looking statements in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), such as this Form 10-Q, in other written materials, and in oral statements made by senior management to analysts, investors, representatives of the media, and others. Such forward looking statements can include statements about the Company’s net interest income or net interest margin; its adequacy of allowance for credit losses, levels of provisions for credit losses, and the quality of the Company’s loans, investment securities and other assets; simulations of changes in interest rates; expected results from mergers with or acquisitions of other businesses; litigation results; tax estimates and recognition; dividend policy; parent company cash resources and cash requirements, and parent company capital resources; estimated cost savings, plans and objectives for future operations; and expectations about the Company’s financial and business performance and other business matters as well as economic and market conditions and trends. They often can be identified by the use of words like “plan,” “expect,” “can,” “might,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe” or “anticipate,” or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the forward-looking statement is made.
Readers are cautioned that, by their nature, all forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from the expectations of the Company that are expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. The discussions in this Item 2 list some of the factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to vary materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Other risks, uncertainties, and factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to vary materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement include:
•the unknown future direction of interest rates and the timing and magnitude of any changes in interest rates;
•changes in competitive conditions;
•the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of asset/liability management strategies or of mergers and acquisitions and other business initiatives and strategies;
49

•changes in customer borrowing, repayment, investment and deposit practices;

•the impact, extent and timing of technological changes;
•potential cyber-attacks, information security breaches and other criminal activities;
•litigation liabilities, including related costs, expenses, settlements and judgments, or the outcome of matters before regulatory agencies, whether pending or commencing in the future;
•actions of the Federal Reserve Board;
•the possible effects of the replacement of the London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR);
•the impact of the current expected credit loss (CECL) standard;
•changes in accounting principles and interpretations;
•potential increases of federal deposit insurance premium expense, and possible future special assessments of FDIC premiums, either industry wide or specific to the Company’s banking subsidiary;
•actions of the regulatory authorities under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and other possible legislative and regulatory actions and reforms;
•impacts resulting from possible amendments or revisions to the Dodd-Frank Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, or to Consumer Financial Protection Bureau rules and regulations;
•the continued availability of earnings and excess capital sufficient for the lawful and prudent declaration and payment of cash dividends; and
•with respect to the merger with CUB, the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the transaction, including anticipated cost savings and strategic gains, are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies, unexpected credit quality problems of the acquired loans or other assets, or unexpected attrition of the customer base of the acquired institution or branches.
Such statements reflect our views with respect to future events and are subject to these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to the operations, results of operations, growth strategy and liquidity of the Company. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company’s exposure to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the Asset/Liability Committee and Boards of Directors of the parent company and its subsidiary bank. Primary market risks which impact the Company’s operations are liquidity risk and interest rate risk.
The liquidity of the parent company is dependent upon the receipt of dividends from its subsidiary bank, which is subject to certain regulatory limitations. The Bank’s source of funding is predominately core deposits, maturities of securities, repayments of loan principal and interest, federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.
The Company monitors interest rate risk by the use of computer simulation modeling to estimate the potential impact on its net interest income under various interest rate scenarios, and by estimating its static interest rate sensitivity position. Another method by which the Company’s interest rate risk position can be estimated is by computing estimated changes in its net portfolio value (“NPV”). This method estimates interest rate risk exposure from movements in interest rates by using interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the change in the NPV of discounted cash flows from assets and liabilities. NPV represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the estimated market value of assets minus the estimated market value of liabilities.
Computations for measuring both net interest income and NPV are based on a number of assumptions, including the relative levels of market interest rates and prepayments in mortgage loans and certain types of investments. These computations do not contemplate any actions management may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. In addition, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of computing both net interest income and NPV. Should interest rates remain or decrease below current levels, the proportion of adjustable rate loans could decrease in future periods due to refinancing activity. In the event of an interest rate change, prepayment levels would likely be different from those assumed in the modeling. Lastly, the ability of many borrowers to repay their adjustable rate debt may decline during a rising interest rate environment.
The Company from time to time utilizes derivatives to manage interest rate risk. Management continuously evaluates the merits of such interest rate risk products but does not anticipate the use of such products to become a major part of the Company’s risk management strategy.
The table below provides an assessment of the risk to net interest income over the next 12 months in the event of a sudden and sustained 1% and 2% increase and decrease in prevailing interest rates (dollars in thousands).
Interest Rate Sensitivity as of March 31, 2022 - Net Interest Income

|  | Net Interest Income |
Changes in Rates |  | Amount |  | % Change |
+2% |  | $ | 192,253 |  |  | (0.09) | % |
+1% |  | 192,448 |  |  | 0.01 | % |
Base |  | 192,433 |  |  | — |  |
-1% |  | 184,715 |  |  | (4.01) | % |
-2% |  | 181,232 |  |  | (5.82) | % |

The above table is a measurement of the Company’s net interest income at risk, assuming a static balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 and instantaneous parallel changes in interest rates. The Company also monitors interest rate risk under other scenarios including a more gradual movement in market interest rates. This type of scenario can at times produce different modeling results in measuring interest rate risk sensitivity.

This Item 3 includes forward-looking statements. See “Forward-looking Statements and Associated Risks” included in Part I, Item 2 of this Report for a discussion of certain factors that could cause the Company’s actual exposure to market risk to vary materially from that expressed or implied above. These factors include possible changes in economic conditions; interest rate fluctuations, competitive product and pricing pressures within the Company’s markets; and equity and fixed income market fluctuations. Actual experience may also vary materially to the extent that the Company’s assumptions described above prove to be inaccurate.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of March 31, 2022, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were, as of that date, effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of systems of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective systems of disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurances of achieving their control objectives.
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s first fiscal quarter of 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In July 2020, the Company was named in a putative class action lawsuit filed in Marion County, Indiana Superior Court challenging the Company’s checking account practices associated with its assessment of overdraft fees for certain debit card transactions. The relief sought by the plaintiff includes restitution, other monetary damages, and injunctive and declaratory relief. The plaintiff also seeks to have the case certified by the Court as a class action on behalf all citizens of Indiana who are checking account holders at German American Bank and who were assessed overdraft fees on certain debit card transactions. The Company believes the plaintiff’s claims are unfounded and has vehemently defended against them, including by filing a motion to dismiss the plaintiff’s amended complaint. On August 25, 2021, while the Company’s motion to dismiss remained pending, the parties participated in a mediation conference. The mediation conference resulted in a settlement in principle, subject to execution of a definitive settlement agreement which would be subject to the Court’s approval. On October 21, 2021, the Company executed a Settlement Agreement and Release, pursuant to which the Company would pay the amount of $3,050,000 in full and complete settlement of plaintiff’s putative class action. On April 18, 2022, plaintiff filed a Motion for Preliminary Approval of Class Action Settlement. That motion remains pending with the Court.
There are no other pending legal proceedings, other than routine litigation incidental to the business of the Company’s subsidiaries, to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of their property is the subject.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in German American Bancorp, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

(1) On January 31, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to 1.0 million shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock. On a share basis, the amount of common stock subject to the repurchase plan represented approximately 3% of the Company’s outstanding shares on the date it was approved. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under the plan, and the plan may be discontinued at any time. The actual timing, number and share price of shares purchased under the repurchase plan will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend upon such factors as the market price of the stock, general market and economic conditions and applicable legal requirements. The 2022 plan replaced a similar share repurchase plan approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on January 25, 2021. The Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock under the 2021 repurchase plan and has not repurchased any shares under the 2022 repurchase plan.
