Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA

CONDENSED COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The tables below show condensed financial information for each of German American Bancorp, Inc. (“GABC”) and Heartland BancCorp (“HLAN”), as well as unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information for GABC and HLAN, for the year ended December 31, 2023 and as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes, reflecting the merger of HLAN with and into GABC (the “merger”), which was completed on February 1, 2025.

Except as otherwise noted in the footnotes to the tables, (a) the financial information included under the “GABC Historical” column is derived from GABC’s historical unaudited interim financial statements and accompanying notes included in GABC’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2024, and GABC’s historical audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in GABC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, each of which is incorporated by reference herein, and (b) the financial information under the “HLAN Historical” column is derived from HLAN’s historical unaudited condensed financial statements and accompanying notes for the period ended September 30, 2024, and HLAN’s historical audited financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2023, which are included as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.1, respectively, to Amendment No. 2 to Current Report on Form 8-K/A, filed by GABC on April 16, 2025 (the “Form 8-K/A”), to which this Exhibit 99.3 is also attached and filed.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to give effect to the following:

· The acquisition of HLAN by GABC under the provision of Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification, ASC 805, “Business Combinations” where the sale of assets and liabilities of HLAN will be recorded by GABC at their respective fair values as of the date the merger is completed;

· The distribution of shares of GABC common stock to HLAN shareholders in exchange for shares of HLAN common stock (based on a 3.90 exchange ratio);

· Certain reclassifications to conform historical HLAN financial information presentation to GABC; and

· Transaction costs in connection with the merger.

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2024 combines the historical consolidated balance sheets of GABC and HLAN, presenting the merger as if it had been consummated on September 30, 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and for the year ended December 31, 2023, combine the historical consolidated income statements of GABC and HLAN, presenting the merger as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2023. You should read such information in conjunction with GABC’s and HLAN’s consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023 and related notes, which for GABC are included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2024, and its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, respectively, and for HLAN are included as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.1, respectively, to the Form 8-K/A. You should also read the accompanying Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet and Income Statements.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only, and does not necessarily indicate the financial results of the combined company had GABC and HLAN actually been combined as of the dates indicated and at the beginning of the periods presented, nor does it necessarily indicate the results of operations in future periods of the future financial position of the combined entities, which could differ materially from those shown in this information. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the benefits of expected synergies, anticipated cost savings, or other factors that may result as a consequence of the merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also does not consider any potential effect of changes in market conditions or interest rates on revenues or the impact of changes in GABC’s stock price. As explained in more detail in the accompanying notes, the preliminary allocation of the pro forma purchase price reflected in the pro forma condensed combined financial information is subject to adjustment and may vary significantly from the actual purchase price allocation that will be recorded upon completion of the merger.

As of the date of the Form 8-K/A, GABC has not yet completed the valuation analysis and calculations at the level of detail required to obtain the necessary estimates of the fair market values of the HLAN assets to be acquired or liabilities to be assumed, other than a preliminary estimate for intangible assets and certain financial assets and liabilities. Therefore, certain HLAN assets and liabilities are presented at their respective carrying amounts and should be considered preliminary values. Final determination of the fair values of HLAN assets and liabilities will be obtained based on actual HLAN asset and liabilities as of the closing date of the merger.

Due to the preliminary valuation analysis as noted above, the pro forma adjustments presented are to be considered preliminary and subject to change as additional information becomes available, and the final closing balances are known. The preliminary pro forma adjustments have been presented solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Any changes in the fair values of the net assets as compared with the information shown in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information may change the amount of the total purchase consideration allocated to goodwill, deferred taxes, and other assets and liabilities, and may impact the combined company’s statement of income.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The pro forma condensed combined financial information and explanatory notes have been prepared to illustrate the effects of the merger under the acquisition method of accounting with GABC as the acquirer. The pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not necessarily indicate the financial condition or results of the combined companies had the companies actually been combined at the beginning of the periods presented, nor does it necessarily indicate the results of operations in future periods or the future financial position of the combined company. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of HLAN, as of the effective date of the merger, will be recorded by GABC at their respective fair values and the excess of the merger consideration over the fair value of HLAN’s net assets will be allocated to goodwill.

The merger was completed on February 1, 2025. HLAN shareholders (other than the Heartland Bank 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “HLAN 401(k) Plan”)) received 3.90 shares of GABC common stock (plus cash-in-lieu of any fractional share created by the exchange ratio) for each share of HLAN common stock they held immediately prior to the merger. The beneficial owners of HLAN shares held in the HLAN 401(k) Plan received a cash payment for such shares as described in more detail in Note 2. The implied value of the merger consideration to HLAN shareholders was $161.19 per share, or a total of $343.1 million, based on the closing stock price of GABC common stock of $41.33 per share on January 31, 2025, which was the business day immediately preceding the merger closing date.

In addition, the merger agreement obligated GABC to pay a cancellation payment to the holders of outstanding options to purchase shares of HLAN common stock. The cancellation payment for each stock option for a share of HLAN common stock was paid in cash in an amount equal to (i) $154.60 per share, which reflects the 3.90 exchange ratio multiplied by $39.64, the volume-weighted average price of GABC’s common shares over the 10 consecutive trading days ending on January 28, 2025 (the “10-day VWAP”) less (ii) the option exercise price per share, and less (iii) any applicable withholding taxes. The aggregate amount of the cancellation payment was approximately $14.7 million.

Note 2: Determination and Allocation of the Purchase Price

The pro forma adjustments include the estimated purchase accounting entries to record the merger transaction. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, net of deferred taxes, is allocated to goodwill. Estimated fair value adjustments included in the pro forma condensed combined financial statement are based upon available information and certain assumptions considered reasonable, and may be revised as additional information becomes available.

GABC acquired each of the outstanding shares of HLAN common stock (other than those held in the HLAN 401(k) Plan) for 3.90 shares of GABC common stock (plus cash-in-lieu of fractional share interests). As stated above, the HLAN 401(k) Plan received a cash payment in exchange for each share of HLAN common stock held in the plan at a price per share equal to $161.19, which represents 3.90 multiplied by $41.33, the closing price of GABC common stock on January 31, 2025 (the trading day immediately preceding the closing of the merger).

The table below includes the issuance of 7,742,723 shares of GABC common stock, which represents 1,985,334 shares of HLAN common stock that were exchanged for GABC shares at the closing of the merger (which was the amount of HLAN common stock outstanding on January 31, 2025, excluding shares held in the HLAN 401(k) Plan). The information below relating to the merger consideration payable in respect of each outstanding share of HLAN common stock reflects a GABC common stock price of $41.33 per share, which was the closing price on January 31, 2025, the last trading day preceding the merger closing date. The determination of the option cancellation payment below reflects a GABC common stock price of $39.64 per share, the 10-day VWAP through January 28, 2025.
