CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this quarterly report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include statements relating to our plans, strategies and expectations, the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and our future financial results, near-term loan growth, net interest margin, mortgage banking profits, wealth management fees, expenses, asset quality, capital levels, continued earnings, and liquidity. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "may," "will," "should," "could," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "anticipate," "project," "plan" or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are frequently based on assumptions that may or may not materialize and are subject to numerous uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or projected and which could materially and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition or prospects include, but are not limited to:

| ● | the strength of the local, state, national and international economies (including effects of inflationary pressures and supply chain constraints);

| ● | the economic impact of any future terrorist threats and attacks, widespread disease or pandemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States), acts of war or other threats thereof, or other adverse external events that could cause economic deterioration or instability in credit markets, and the response of the local, state and national governments to any such adverse external events;

| ● | our asset quality and any loan charge-offs;

| ● | the composition of our loan portfolio;

| ● | time and effort necessary to resolve nonperforming assets and the loans modified or deferred as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic;

| ● | the length and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of the pandemic on our operations and the operations of our customers and the communities that we serve;

| ● | environmental liability associated with our lending activities;

| ● | the effects of the current low interest rate environment or changes in interest rates on our net interest income, net interest margin, our investments, our loan originations, and our modeling estimates relating to interest rate changes;

| ● | changes in and uncertainty related to benchmark interest rates used to price our loans, including the elimination of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”);

| ● | our access to sources of liquidity and capital to address our liquidity needs;

| ● | our inability to receive dividends from the Bank, pay dividends to our common stockholders or satisfy obligations as they become due;

| ● | the effects of problems encountered by other financial institutions;

| ● | our ability to achieve organic loan and deposit growth and the composition of such growth;

| ● | our ability to attract and retain skilled employees or changes in our management personnel;

| ● | any failure or interruption of our information and communications systems;

| ● | our ability to identify and address cybersecurity risks;

| ● | the effects of the failure of any component of our business infrastructure provided by a third party;

| ● | our ability to keep pace with technological changes;

| ● | our ability to successfully develop and commercialize new or enhanced products and services;

| ● | current and future business, economic and market conditions in the United States (“U.S.”) generally or in the States of Illinois and Iowa in particular;

| ● | the geographic concentration of our operations in the States of Illinois and Iowa;

| ● | our ability to effectively compete with other financial services companies and the effects of competition in the financial services industry on our business;

| ● | our ability to attract and retain customer deposits;

| ● | our ability to maintain the Bank’s reputation;

| ● | possible impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets;

| ● | the impact of, and changes in applicable laws, regulations and accounting standards and policies;

| ● | our prior status as an S corporation;

| ● | possible changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies of, and other activities undertaken by, governments, agencies, central banks and similar organizations;

| ● | damage to our reputation from any of the factors described above;

| ● | our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items; and

| ● | the factors discussed in “Risk Factors”, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" or elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange (“SEC”) Commission on March 11, 2022.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement in the future, or to reflect circumstances and events that occur after the date on which the forward-looking statement was made.

NOTE 1 – ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

HBT Financial, Inc. (“HBT Financial” or the “Company”) is headquartered in Bloomington, Illinois and is the holding company for Heartland Bank and Trust Company (“Heartland Bank” or the “Bank”). The Bank provides a comprehensive suite of business, commercial, wealth management and retail banking products and services to individuals, businesses, and municipal entities throughout Central and Northeastern Illinois and Eastern Iowa. Additionally, the Company is subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory agencies.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) interim reporting requirements. Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP has been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2022.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

The Company qualifies as an "emerging growth company" as defined by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”). The JOBS Act permits emerging growth companies an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards affecting public companies. The Company may remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (1) the end of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering, which is December 31, 2024, (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which the Company has $1.07 billion or more in annual revenues, (3) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) or (4) the date on which the Company has, during the previous three year period, issued, publicly or privately, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities. The Company has elected to use the extended transition period until the Company is no longer an emerging growth company or until the Company chooses to affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period. As a result, the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies.

Use of Estimates

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and the reported results of operations for the periods then ended.

Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations.

Segment Reporting

The Company’s operations consist of one reportable segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the operations of the Company using consolidated information for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation without any impact on the reported amounts of net income or stockholders’ equity.

Subsequent Events

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on debt securities available-for-sale and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for years beginning after December 31, 2018, including interim periods within those years.

The Company has formed an implementation team to assess the impact that ASU 2016-13 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. For the majority of loans evaluated on a pooled basis, the Company anticipates using a discounted cash flow method which considers instrument level cash flows adjusted for, among other factors, prepayment speeds, probability of default, and loss given default. The Company also anticipates using regression analysis of historical internal and peer data to determine which variables are best suited to be economic variables utilized when modeling lifetime probability of default and loss given default.

The ultimate impact to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations of ASU 2016-13, at both adoption and each subsequent reporting period, is highly dependent on credit quality, macroeconomic forecasts and conditions, the composition of our loan and securities portfolios, along with other management judgments.

​

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 simplifies measurement of goodwill and eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under ASU 2017-04, a company should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The impairment charge is limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The amendments in this update are effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. In January 2021, the FASB also issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which refined the scope for certain optional expedients and exceptions for contract modifications and hedge accounting to apply to derivative contracts and certain hedging relationships affected by the discounting transition. Entities may apply the provisions as of the beginning of the reporting period when the election is made and are available until December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this standard will have on the consolidated results of operations and financial position.

NOTE 2 – ACQUISITIONS

NXT Bancorporation, Inc.

On October 1, 2021, HBT Financial acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of NXT Bancorporation, Inc. (“NXT”), the holding company for NXT Bank, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 7, 2021. Under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, NXT merged with and into HBT Financial, with HBT Financial as the surviving entity, on October 1, 2021. Additionally, NXT Bank was merged with and into Heartland Bank, with Heartland Bank as the surviving entity, in December 2021.

At the effective time of the merger, each share of NXT was converted into the right to receive 67.6783 shares of HBT Financial common stock, cash in lieu of fractional shares, and $400 in cash. There were 1,799,016 shares of HBT Financial common stock issued at the effective time of the acquisition with an aggregate market value of $29.3 million, based on the closing stock price of $16.27 on October 1, 2021. This transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. Goodwill of $5.7 million was recorded in the acquisition, which reflects expected synergies from combining the operations of HBT Financial and NXT, and is nondeductible for tax purposes.

The acquisition of NXT provided an opportunity to utilize Heartland Bank’s excess liquidity at the time of acquisition to replace NXT Bank’s higher-cost funding. Additionally, Heartland Bank’s broader range of products and services, as well as a greater ability to meet larger borrowing needs, has provided an opportunity to expand NXT Bank’s customer relationships.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, HBT Financial incurred $0.2 million in pre-tax acquisition expenses related to the acquisition of NXT, comprised primarily of professional fees. These expenses are reflected in noninterest expense on the consolidated statements of income. There were no acquisition expenses related to the acquisition of NXT during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

​

On March 31, 2022, June 30, 2021, and March 31, 2021, the Company transferred certain debt securities from the available-for-sale category to the held-to-maturity category in order to better reflect the revised intentions of the Company due to possible market value volatility, resulting from a potential rise in interest rates. The following is a summary of the amortized cost and fair value of securities transferred to the held-to-maturity category:

​

The debt securities were transferred between categories at fair value, with the transfer date fair value becoming the new amortized cost for each security transferred. The unrealized gain (loss), net of tax, at the date of transfer remains a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, but will be amortized over the remaining life of the debt securities as an adjustment of yield in a manner consistent with amortization of any premium or discount. As a result, the amortization of an unrealized gain (loss) reported in accumulated other comprehensive income will offset or mitigate the effect on interest income of the amortization of the premium or discount for that held-to-maturity debt security.

​

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Bank had debt securities with a carrying value of $394.0 million and $353.3 million, respectively, which were pledged to secure public deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and for other purposes required or permitted by law.

​

The Company has no direct exposure to the State of Illinois, but approximately 49% of the municipal portfolio consists of debt securities issued by municipalities located in Illinois as of June 30, 2022. Approximately 81% of such debt securities were general obligation issues as of June 30, 2022.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities by contractual maturity, as of June 30, 2022, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

​

As of June 30, 2022, there were 87 debt securities in an unrealized loss position for a period of twelve months or more, and 603 debt securities in an unrealized loss position for a period of less than twelve months. These unrealized losses are primarily a result of fluctuations in market interest rates. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the debt securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and industry analysts’ reports. Management believes that all declines in value of these debt securities are deemed to be temporary.

There were no sales of debt securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Equity Securities

Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in gains (losses) on securities on the consolidated statements of income.

The Company has elected to measure equity securities with no readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes for identical or similar securities of the same issuer.

The initial cost and carrying values of equity securities, with cumulative net unrealized gains and losses are as follows:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Readily | ​ | No Readily
​ | ​ | Determinable | ​ | Determinable
June 30, 2022 |  | Fair Value |  | Fair Value
​ | ​ | (dollars in thousands)
Initial cost | ​ | $ | 3,142 | ​ | $ | 2,117
Cumulative net unrealized gains (losses) | ​ | ​ | (39) | ​ | ​ | (165)
Carrying value | ​ | $ | 3,103 | ​ | $ | 1,952

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Readily | ​ | No Readily
​ | ​ | Determinable | ​ | Determinable
December 31, 2021 |  | Fair Value |  | Fair Value
​ | ​ | (dollars in thousands)
Initial cost | ​ | $ | 3,142 | ​ | $ | 2,092
Cumulative net unrealized gains (losses) | ​ | ​ | 301 | ​ | ​ | (165)
Carrying value | ​ | $ | 3,443 | ​ | $ | 1,927

​

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the cumulative net unrealized losses on equity securities with no readily determinable fair value reflect downward adjustments based on observable price changes of an identical investment. There have been no impairments or upward adjustments based on observable price changes to equity securities with no readily determinable fair value.

There were no new troubled debt restructurings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021.

Of the troubled debt restructurings entered into during the last 12 months, there were none which had subsequent payment defaults during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. For purposes of this disclosure, the Company considers “default” to mean 90 days or more past due as to interest or principal or were on nonaccrual status subsequent to restructuring.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $3.3 million and $3.5 million of troubled debt restructurings, respectively. Restructured loans are evaluated for impairment quarterly as part of the Company’s determination of the allowance for loan losses. There were no material commitments to lend additional funds to debtors owing loans whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), along with a joint statement issued by banking regulatory agencies, provided that short-term loan payment modifications made prior to December 31, 2021 to borrowers experiencing financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic generally do not need to be accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had no loans that were granted a payment modification due to a COVID-19 related financial hardship which had not returned to regular payments. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $0.2 million of loans that were granted a

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative financial instruments are negotiated contracts entered into by two issuing counterparties containing specific agreement terms, including the underlying instrument, amount, exercise price, and maturities. The derivatives accounting guidance requires that the Company recognize all derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company may utilize interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position.

Interest Rate Swaps Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

The Company designated certain interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges on variable-rate borrowings. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedging instruments, net of tax, is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.

The interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges are summarized as follows:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | June 30, 2022 | ​ | December 31, 2021

Fair value recorded in other liabilities | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | 17,000 | ​ | ​ | (680)

​

As of June 30, 2022, the interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges had contractual maturities between 2024 and 2025. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had cash pledged and held on deposit at counterparties of $0.8 million.

The effect of interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges on the consolidated statements of income are summarized as follows:

Interest Rate Swaps Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

The Company may offer interest rate swap agreements to its commercial borrowers in connection with their risk management needs. The Company manages the interest rate risk associated with these contracts by entering into an equal and offsetting derivative with a third-party financial institution. While these interest rate swap agreements generally work together as an economic interest rate hedge, the Company did not designate them for hedge accounting treatment. Consequently, changes in fair value of the corresponding derivative financial asset or liability were recorded as either a charge or credit to current earnings during the period in which the changes occurred.

The interest rate swap agreements not designated as hedging instruments are summarized as follows:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

As of June 30, 2022, the interest rate swap agreements not designated as hedging instruments had contractual maturities between 2022 and 2042. As of December 31, 2021, the carrying value of debt securities pledged and held in safekeeping at a financial institution counterparty was $7.5 million.

NOTE 10 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company has granted certain restricted stock units that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents. Such restricted stock units are considered participating securities. As such, we have included these restricted stock units in the calculation of basic earnings per share and calculate basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings.

Diluted earnings per share is computed using the treasury stock method and reflects the potential dilution from the Company’s outstanding restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 11 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company has adopted the HBT Financial, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”). The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides for grants of (i) stock options, (ii) stock appreciation rights, (iii) restricted shares, (iv) restricted stock units, (v) performance awards, (vi) other share-based awards and (vi) other cash-based awards to eligible employees, non-employee directors and consultants of the Company. The maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Omnibus Incentive Plan is 1,820,000 shares.

The following is a summary of stock-based compensation expense (benefit):

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Three Months Ended June 30, | ​ | Six Months Ended June 30,

Total awards classified as equity | ​ | ​ | 352 | ​ | ​ | 181 | ​ | ​ | 1,253 | ​ | ​ | 310

Total stock-based compensation expense | ​ | $ | 359 | ​ | $ | 181 | ​ | $ | 1,237 | ​ | $ | 440

​

In February 2022, all outstanding restricted stock unit and performance restricted stock unit agreements were modified to address treatment upon retirement. In the event of retirement, and if the retirement eligibility requirements are met, then 100% of unvested restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units will continue to vest in accordance with the originally established vesting schedule. The retirement modification resulted in the acceleration of $0.6 million of expense, although total compensation costs related to the modified agreements remained the same.

Restricted Stock Units

A restricted stock unit grants a participant the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock, following the completion of the requisite service period. Restricted stock units are classified as equity. Compensation cost is based on the Company’s stock price on the grant date and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period for the entire award. Dividend equivalents on restricted stock units, which are either accrued until vested or paid at the same time as dividends on common stock, are classified as dividends charged to retained earnings.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the total grant date fair value of the restricted stock units granted was $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively, based on the grant date closing prices. The total intrinsic value of restricted stock that vested during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $0.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

The following is a summary of restricted stock unit activity:

Performance Restricted Stock Units

A performance restricted stock unit is similar to a restricted stock unit, except that the number of shares of the Company’s common stock awarded is based on a performance condition and the completion of the requisite service period. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be earned ranges from 0% to 150% of the number of performance restricted stock units granted. Performance restricted stock units are classified as equity. Compensation cost is based on the Company’s stock price on the grant date and an assessment of the probable outcome of the performance condition. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period of the entire award. Changes in the performance condition probability assessment result in cumulative catch-up adjustments to the compensation cost recognized. Dividend equivalents on performance restricted stock units, which are accrued until vested, are classified as dividends charged to retained earnings.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the total fair value of the performance restricted stock units granted was $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively, based on the grant date closing prices and an assessment of the probable outcome of the performance condition on the grant date.

Stock Appreciation Rights

A stock appreciation right grants a participant the right to receive an amount of cash, the value of which equals the appreciation in the Company’s stock price between the grant date and the exercise date. Stock appreciation rights are classified as liabilities. The liability is based on an option-pricing model used to estimate the fair value of the stock appreciation rights. Compensation cost for non-vested stock appreciation rights is recognized on a straight line basis over the service period of the entire award. The non-vested stock appreciation rights vest in four equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date.

The following is a summary of stock appreciation rights activity:

NOTE 12 – REGULATORY MATTERS

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are each subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by the regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Bank. Additionally, the ability of the Company to pay dividends to its stockholders is dependent upon the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company.

Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. As allowed under the regulations, the Company and the Bank elected to exclude accumulated other comprehensive income, including unrealized gains and losses on debt securities, in the computation of regulatory capital. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.

Additionally, the Company and the Bank must maintain a “capital conservation buffer” to avoid becoming subject to restrictions on capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments to management. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the capital conservation buffer was 2.5% of risk-weighted assets.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company and the Bank each met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject.

NOTE 13 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Recurring Basis

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Additional information on fair value measurements is summarized in Note 1 to the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2022. There were no transfers between levels during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company’s policy for determining transfers between levels occurs at the end of the reporting period when circumstances in the underlying valuation criteria change and result in transfer between levels.

The following tables present the balances of the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Investment Securities

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of securities; such items are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For the Company’s securities where quoted prices are not available for identical securities in an active market, the Company determines fair value utilizing vendors who apply matrix pricing for similar bonds where no price is observable or may compile prices from various sources. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including time value, yield curve, volatility factors, prepayment speeds, default rates, loss severity, current market and contractual prices for the underlying financial instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace. Fair values from these models are verified, where possible, against quoted market prices for recent trading activity of assets with similar characteristics to the security being valued. Such methods are generally classified as Level 2; however, when prices from independent sources vary, cannot be obtained or cannot be corroborated, a security is generally classified as Level 3. The change in fair value of debt securities available-for-sale is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss). The change in fair value of equity securities with readily determinable fair values is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of income.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest rate swap agreements are carried at fair value as determined by dealer valuation models. Based on the inputs used, the derivative financial instruments subjected to recurring fair value adjustments are classified as Level 2. For derivative financial instruments designated as hedging instruments, the change in fair value is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss). For derivative financial instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the change in fair value is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of income.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

The Company has elected to record its mortgage servicing rights at fair value. Mortgage servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, the Company determines the fair value of mortgage servicing rights by estimating the fair value of the future cash flows associated with the mortgage loans being serviced as calculated by an independent third party. Key economic assumptions used in measuring the fair value of mortgage servicing rights include, but are not limited to, prepayment speeds and discount rates. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, mortgage servicing rights are classified as Level 3. The change in fair value is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of income.

Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis; however, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as there is evidence of impairment or a change in the amount of previously recognized impairment.

The following tables present the balances of the assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

​

Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans originated and held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. The Company obtains quotes or bids on these loans directly from purchasing financial institutions. Typically, these quotes include a premium on the sale and thus these quotes indicate fair value of the held for sale loans is greater than cost.

​

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans

In accordance with the provisions of the loan impairment guidance, impairment was measured for loans with respect to which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans is estimated based on the fair value of the underlying collateral supporting the loan. Collateral-dependent impaired loans require classification in the fair value hierarchy. Impaired loans include loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on customized discounting criteria.

Bank Premises Held for Sale

Bank premises held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling costs, at the date classified as held for sale. Values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals and customized discounting criteria. The carrying value of bank premises held for sale is not re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis but is subject to fair value adjustments when the carrying value exceeds the fair value, less estimated selling costs.

Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed assets are recorded at fair value based on property appraisals, less estimated selling costs, at the date of the transfer. Subsequent to the transfer, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling costs. Values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals and customized discounting criteria. The carrying value of foreclosed assets is not re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis but is subject to fair value adjustments when the carrying value exceeds the fair value, less estimated selling costs.

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans, Bank Premises Held for Sale, and Foreclosed Assets

The estimated fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans, bank premises held for sale, and foreclosed assets is based on the appraised fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell. Collateral-dependent impaired loans, bank premises held for sale, and foreclosed assets are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company considers the appraisal or a similar evaluation as the starting point for determining fair value and then considers other factors and events in the environment that may affect the fair value. Appraisals or a similar evaluation of the collateral underlying collateral-dependent loans and foreclosed assets are obtained at the time a loan is first considered impaired or a loan is transferred to foreclosed assets. Appraisals or a similar evaluation of bank premises held for sale are obtained when first classified as held for sale. Appraisals or similar evaluations are obtained subsequently as deemed necessary by management but at least annually on foreclosed assets and bank premises held for sale. Appraisals are reviewed for accuracy and consistency by management. Appraisals are performed by individuals selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management. The appraised values are reduced by estimated costs to sell. These discounts and estimates are developed by management by comparison to historical results.

Other Fair Value Methods

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures of its other financial instruments. There were no changes in the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

Restricted Stock

The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.

Loans

The fair value estimation process for the loan portfolio uses an exit price concept and reflects discounts the Company believes are consistent with discounts in the marketplace. Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial and industrial, agricultural and farmland, commercial real estate - owner occupied, commercial real estate - non-owner occupied, multi-family, construction and land development, one-to-four family residential, and municipal, consumer, and other. The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for similar maturities. The fair value analysis also includes other assumptions to estimate fair value, intended to approximate those a market participant would use in an orderly transaction, with adjustments for discount rates, interest rates, liquidity, and credit spreads, as appropriate.

Investments in Unconsolidated Subsidiaries

The fair values of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries are presumed to approximate carrying amounts.

46

HBT FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

​

Time Deposits

Fair values of certificates of deposit with stated maturities have been estimated using the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at rates currently offered for similar instruments. Time deposits also include public funds time deposits.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

The fair values of repurchase agreements with variable interest rates are presumed to approximate their recorded carrying amounts.

Subordinated Notes

The fair values of subordinated notes are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on rates observed on recent debt issuances by other financial institutions.

Junior Subordinated Debentures

The fair values of subordinated debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on rates observed on recent debt issuances by other financial institutions.

Accrued Interest

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

Limitations

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair values have been estimated using data which management considered the best available and estimation methodologies deemed suitable for the pertinent category of financial instrument.

NOTE 14 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Financial Instruments

The Bank is party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Such commitments and conditional obligations were as follows:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Contractual Amount
​ |  | June 30, 2022 |  | December 31, 2021
​ | ​ | ​ | (dollars in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit | ​ | $ | 656,359 | ​ | $ | 609,947
Standby letters of credit | ​ | ​ | 14,485 | ​ | ​ | 12,960

​

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, by the Bank upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include real estate, accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and income-producing properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support extensions of credit. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Bank secures the standby letters of credit with the same collateral used to secure the related loan.

Legal Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company, or its subsidiaries, are involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from pending proceedings would not be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

DeBaere, et al v. Heartland Bank and Trust Company

The Bank is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit filed in June 2020, in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, DeBaere, et al v. Heartland Bank and Trust Company. The plaintiff, a customer of the Bank, alleges that the Bank breached its contract with the plaintiff by (1) charging multiple insufficient funds fees or overdraft fees on a single customer-initiated transaction, and (2) charging overdraft fees for transactions that were authorized on a positive account balance, but when settled, settled into a negative balance.

The Bank intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit. The Company does not believe a loss is probable at this time, as that term is used in assessing loss contingencies. Accordingly, consistent with the authoritative guidance in the evaluation of contingencies, an accrual related to this matter has not been recorded. However, an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, and the Company would not characterize the chance of any loss as “remote.” Given the early stage of this case, the Company cannot yet offer an opinion on the estimated range of any possible loss, in the event of an unfavorable opinion.

Miller, et al v. State Bank of Lincoln and Heartland Bank and Trust Company

The Bank is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit filed in May 2020, in the Circuit Court of Logan County, Illinois, Miller, et al v. State Bank of Lincoln and the Bank. The plaintiff, a customer of State Bank of Lincoln, which previously merged with the Bank, alleges that the Bank breached its contract with the plaintiff by charging multiple insufficient funds fees or overdraft fees on a single customer-initiated transaction.

The Bank intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit. The Company does not believe a loss is probable at this time, as that term is used in assessing loss contingencies. Accordingly, consistent with the authoritative guidance in the evaluation of contingencies, an accrual related to this matter has not been recorded. However, an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, and the Company would not characterize the chance of any loss as “remote.” Given the early stage of this case, the Company cannot yet offer an opinion on the estimated range of any possible loss, in the event of an unfavorable opinion.

NXT Bancorporation, Inc. Acquisition

On October 1, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of NXT Bancorporation, Inc. (“NXT”), the holding company for NXT Bank. The acquisition expanded the Company’s footprint into Eastern Iowa with four locations that began operating as branches of Heartland Bank following the merger and system conversion of NXT Bank into Heartland Bank in December 2021. After considering business combination accounting adjustments, NXT added total assets of $234.1 million, total loans of $194.6 million, and total deposits of $181.6 million.

Cash consideration of $10.6 million and stock consideration of approximately 1.8 million shares of HBT common stock resulted in aggregate consideration of $39.9 million. Goodwill of $5.7 million was recorded in the acquisition.

The Company did not incur expenses related to the acquisition of NXT during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company incurred the following pre-tax acquisition expenses related to the acquisition of NXT during the second quarter of 2021 (dollars in thousands):

Paycheck Protection Program Loans

During 2021 and 2020, we funded a total of $290.1 million of Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans. The vast majority of those loans have received full forgiveness, and we continue to process forgiveness applications.

As of June 30, 2022, PPP loans totaled $2.8 million, net of $0.1 million of net deferred origination fees remaining to be recognized as loan interest income. Recognition of net deferred origination fees is accelerated upon loan forgiveness or repayment prior to contractual maturity. Net deferred origination fees on PPP loans recognized as taxable loan interest income totaled $0.6 million and $2.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $1.4 million and $4.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

FACTORS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Economic Conditions

The Company's business and financial performance are affected by economic conditions generally in the U.S. and more directly in the Illinois and Iowa markets where we primarily operate. The significant economic factors that are most relevant to our business and our financial performance include the general economic conditions in the U.S. and in the Company's markets (including the effect of inflationary pressures), unemployment rates, real estate markets, and interest rates.

COVID-19 Pandemic

Although the Company has had continuous business operations since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the pandemic has caused significant economic disruption throughout the U.S. and the communities that we serve. While the economic outlook has generally improved relative to 2020 and 2021, there remains uncertainty surrounding the longer lasting impact on specific industries and potential surges in COVID-19 infections with new virus variants. As a result, the businesses we serve may be adversely impacted and the ability of our customers to fulfill their contractual obligations to us may deteriorate.

Interest Rates

Net interest income is our primary source of revenue. Net interest income is equal to the excess of interest income earned on interest earning assets (including discount accretion on purchased loans plus certain loan fees) over interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. The level of interest rates as well as the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities both impact net interest income. Net interest income is also influenced by both the pricing and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which, in turn, are impacted by external factors such as local economic conditions, competition for loans and deposits, the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) and market interest rates.

The cost of our deposits and short-term wholesale borrowings is largely based on short-term interest rates, which are primarily driven by the FRB’s actions. The yields generated by our loans and securities are typically driven by short-term and long-term interest rates, which are set by the market and, to some degree, by the FRB’s actions. Our net interest income is therefore influenced by movements in such interest rates and the pace at which such movements occur. Generally, we expect increases in market interest rates will increase our net interest income and net interest margin in future periods, while decreases in market interest rates may decrease our net interest income and net interest margin in future periods.

Credit Trends

We focus on originating loans with appropriate risk/reward profiles. We have a detailed loan policy that guides our overall loan origination philosophy and a well-established loan approval process that requires experienced credit officers to approve larger loan relationships. Although we believe our loan approval and credit review processes are strengths that allow us to maintain a high quality loan portfolio, we recognize that credit trends in the markets in which we operate and in our loan portfolio can materially impact our financial condition and performance and that these trends are primarily driven by the economic conditions in our markets.

Competition

Our profitability and growth are affected by the highly competitive nature of the financial services industry. We compete with community banks in all our markets and, to a lesser extent, with money center banks, primarily in the Chicago MSA. Additionally, we compete with non-bank financial services companies and other financial institutions operating within the areas we serve. We compete by emphasizing personalized service and efficient decision-making tailored to individual needs. We do not rely on any individual, group, or entity for a material portion of our loans or our deposits. We continue to see increased competitive pressures on loan rates and terms which may affect our financial results in the future.

Digital Banking

Throughout the banking industry, in-person branch traffic is expected to continue to decline as more customers turn to digital banking for routine banking transactions. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated this transition, and in-person branch traffic is not expected to return to pre-pandemic levels. We plan to continue investing in our digital banking platforms, while maintaining an appropriately sized branch network. An inability to meet evolving customer expectations, with the appropriate level of security, for both digital and in-person banking may adversely affect our financial results in the future.

Regulatory Environment and Trends

We are subject to federal and state regulation and supervision, which continue to evolve as the legal and regulatory framework governing our operations continues to change. The current operating environment includes extensive regulation and supervision in areas such as consumer compliance, the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering compliance, risk management and internal audit. We anticipate that this environment of extensive regulation and supervision will continue for the industry. As a result, changes in the regulatory environment may result in additional costs for additional compliance, risk management and audit personnel or professional fees associated with advisors and consultants.

FACTORS AFFECTING COMPARABILITY OF FINANCIAL RESULTS

JOBS Act Accounting Election

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. The JOBS Act permits us an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards affecting public companies. The Company may remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (1) the end of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering, which is December 31, 2024, (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which the Company has $1.07 billion or more in annual revenues, (3) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Exchange Act or (4) the date on which the Company has, during the previous three year period, issued, publicly or privately, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities. We have elected to use the extended transition period until we are no longer an emerging growth company or until we choose to affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net income was $14.1 million increasing by $0.4 million, or 2.7%, when compared to net income for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Notable changes include the following:

| ● | A $4.7 million increase in net interest income, primarily attributable to higher average balances of interest-earning assets following the NXT acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021 and an increased interest-earning asset yield primarily due to a more favorable asset mix;

| ● | A provision for loan losses of $0.1 million was recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a negative provision for loan losses of $2.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021;

| ● | A $1.7 million increase in noninterest expense, primarily reflecting a higher base level of noninterest expense following the NXT acquisition; and

| ● | A $1.2 million decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loans, primarily attributable to a lower level of mortgage refinancing activity due to increases in interest rates.

​

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net income was $27.7 million decreasing by $1.3 million, or 4.4%, when compared to net income for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Notable changes include the following:

| ● | A $7.5 million increase in net interest income, primarily attributable to higher average balances of interest-earning assets following the NXT acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021;

| ● | A negative provision for loan losses of $0.4 million was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a negative provision for loan losses of $5.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021;

| ● | A $2.7 million decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loans, primarily attributable to a lower level of mortgage refinancing activity due to increases in interest rates; and

| ● | A $3.3 million increase in noninterest expense, primarily reflecting a higher base level of noninterest expense following the NXT acquisition.

​

Net Interest Income

Net interest income equals the excess of interest income (including discount accretion on acquired loans) plus fees earned on interest earning assets over interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Interest rate spread and net interest margin are utilized to measure and explain changes in net interest income. Interest rate spread is the difference between the yield on interest-earning assets and the rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities that fund those assets. The net interest margin is expressed as the percentage of net interest income to average interest-earning assets. The net interest margin exceeds the interest rate spread because noninterest-bearing sources of funds, principally noninterest-bearing demand deposits and stockholders’ equity, also support interest-earning assets.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table sets forth the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major categories of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Information is provided for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with respect to changes attributable to volume (i.e., changes in average balances multiplied by the prior-period average rate), and changes attributable to rate (i.e., changes in average rate multiplied by prior-period average balances). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both volume and rate that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was $34.4 million, increasing $4.7 million, or 15.7%, from the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily attributable to higher average balances of interest-earnings assets following the NXT acquisition and an increased interest-earning asset yield primarily due to a more favorable asset mix. These higher average balances, as well as higher yields on interest-earning assets driven by recent increases in benchmark interest rates, more than offset a $1.7 million decrease in PPP loan fees recognized as loan interest income.

Net interest margin increased to 3.34% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 3.14% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to a more favorable mix of interest-earnings assets. Additionally, the contribution of PPP loan fees to net interest margin decreased to 6 basis points during the three months ended June 30, 2022 from 25 basis points during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $66.3 million, increasing $7.5 million, or 12.7%, from the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily attributable to higher average balances of interest-earning assets following the NXT acquisition. These higher average balances more than offset a $3.2 million decrease in PPP loan fees recognized as loan interest income.

Net interest margin increased slightly to 3.21% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 3.19% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The contribution of PPP loans to net interest margin decreased to 7 basis points during the six months ended June 30, 2022 from 25 basis points during the six months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was more than offset by an increase in contractual interest on loans, driven by recent increases in benchmark interest rates.

The quarterly net interest margins were as follows:

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ |  | 2022 |  | 2021 |
Three months ended: | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
March 31 |  | 3.08 | % | 3.25 | %
June 30 |  | 3.34 | ​ | 3.14 | ​
September 30 |  | — | ​ | 3.18 | ​
December 31 |  | — | ​ | 3.17 | ​

​

In March 2020, the Federal Open Markets Committee (“FOMC”), in response to the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, lowered the target range for the federal funds rate to 0% to 0.25% and announced the FRB would substantially increase its Treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities holdings. This resulted in a historically low interest rate environment which lasted through the rest of 2020 and into 2021, putting downward pressure on our net interest margin.

In 2021, the FOMC began to taper the pace of its security purchases, and, in March 2022, the FOMC raised the target range for the federal funds rate. Since March 2022, the FOMC has raised the target range for the federal funds rate three additional times, set the target range for the federal funds rate to 2.25% to 2.50% at the July 2022 meeting, and indicated that the FRB will continue reducing its security holdings. Additionally, the FOMC indicated that it anticipates that ongoing increases in the target range will be appropriate, although this stance may be adjusted if risks emerge that impede the FRB’s dual mandate of maximum employment and price stability.

As a result of these developments, interest rates have risen which we expect will lead to improvements in our net interest margin. In general, we believe that increases in market interest rates will lead to improved net interest margins while decreases in market interest rates will result in lower net interest margins. Additionally, deposit costs are expected to increase in the second half of 2022, but should be more than offset by continued increases in earning asset yields resulting from higher rates.

Provision for Loan Losses

Provisions for loan losses are charged to operations in order to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level we consider necessary to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. In determining the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers past and current loss experience, evaluations of collateral, current economic conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay a loan and the levels of nonperforming and other classified loans. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates and the ultimate losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available or as events change. We assess the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis and make provisions for loan losses in order to maintain the allowance. The provision for loan losses is a function of the allowance for loan loss methodology we use to determine the appropriate level of the allowance for inherent loan losses after accounting for net charge-offs (recoveries).

Credit losses in our loan portfolio are highly dependent on the economic conditions in the communities that we serve. The general deterioration in economic conditions initially caused by the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the communities that we serve beginning in 2020. As a result, our allowance for loan losses initially increased at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, remained elevated during the remainder of 2020, and then gradually returned to near pre-pandemic levels during 2021 as economic conditions improved in our market areas. Potential deterioration of economic conditions, whether due to the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors, may lead to higher credit losses and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $0.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a negative provision for loan losses of $2.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The provision during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to changes in qualitative factors, resulting in a $0.4 million increase in required reserve, reflecting a slight deterioration in the economic environment since the first quarter of 2022 such as emerging concerns regarding inflation adversely affecting the buying power of households and a slowing housing market. Mostly offsetting the change in qualitative factors was a $0.2 million decrease in specific reserves on loans individually evaluated for impairment, and a $0.1 million net recovery.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

The Company recorded a negative provision for loan losses of $0.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a negative provision for loan losses of $5.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The negative provision during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to net recoveries of $1.2 million during this period. This was partially offset by a $0.8 million increase in required reserves, reflecting a $1.5 million increase in specific reserves on loans individually evaluated for impairment and improvements in qualitative factors, relative to December 31, 2021, which resulted in a $0.7 million decrease in required reserves.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Total noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was $8.6 million, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 2.5%, from the three months ended June 30, 2021. Notable changes in noninterest income include the following:

| ● | A $1.2 million decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loans, primarily attributable to a lower level of mortgage refinancing activity due to recent interest rate increases. A lower level of mortgage refinancing activity is anticipated during the remainder of 2022 and is expected to result in lower gains on sale of mortgage loans relative to 2021;

| ● | A $0.7 million increase in the mortgage servicing rights fair value adjustment, primarily resulting from slower mortgage prepayment speed assumptions;

| ● | A $0.4 million increase in service charges on deposit accounts;

| ● | A $0.3 million increase in wealth management fees, reflecting a $0.2 million increase in farm management fees primarily due to increased commodity prices relative to 2021, and a $0.1 million increase in farm real estate brokerage fees. Additionally, a decline in assets under management resulting from market performance since 2021 is expected to result in lower wealth management revenue during the remainder of 2022; and

| ● | A $0.3 million increase in card income primarily due to increased debit and credit card transaction volume.

Total assets were $4.22 billion at June 30, 2022, a decrease of $90.3 million, or 2.1%, from December 31, 2021. Notable changes in our consolidated balance sheet include the following:

| ● | Excess liquidity, including excess cash held at December 31, 2021, was reinvested into debt securities which increased by $194.6 million;

| ● | Loans decreased by $47.9 million, which includes a $26.7 million decrease due to the ongoing forgiveness of PPP loans;

| ● | Total deposits decreased by $36.2 million, primarily due to lower balances maintained in retail and business accounts, partially offset by a seasonal increase in public fund accounts as a result of real estate tax collections in the second quarter of 2022; and

| ● | Increases in market interest rates since December 31, 2021 drove a decrease in fair value of debt securities resulting in $77.6 million of unrealized losses in the available-for-sale portfolio and substantially contributing to a total decrease of $54.3 million in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Loans, before allowance for loan losses were $2.45 billion at June 30, 2022, a decrease of $47.9 million, or 1.9%, from December 31, 2021, primarily due to the ongoing forgiveness of PPP loans which decreased by $26.7 million. Additionally, new loan production was impacted by seasonally lighter demand in the first quarter of 2022, project delays due to higher materials costs and interest rates, and an increasingly competitive loan pricing environment in our markets.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming loans consist of all loans 90 days or more past due or on nonaccrual. Nonperforming assets consist of all nonperforming loans and foreclosed assets. Typically, loans are placed on nonaccrual when they reach 90 days past due, or when, in management’s opinion, there is reasonable doubt regarding the collection of the amounts due through the normal means of the borrower. Interest accrued and unpaid at the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed from interest income. Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans are recognized in accordance with our significant accounting policies. Once a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the borrower must generally demonstrate at least six months of payment performance and we must believe that all remaining principal and interest is fully collectible, before the loan is eligible to return to accrual status. Management believes the Company’s lending practices and active approach to managing nonperforming assets has resulted in timely resolution of problem assets.

Loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality are considered past due or delinquent when the contractual principal or interest due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement remains unpaid after the due date of the scheduled payment. However, these loans may be considered performing, even though they may be contractually past due, as any non-payment of contractual principal or interest is considered in the periodic re-estimation of expected cash flows and is included in the resulting recognition of current period loan loss provision or future period yield adjustments. The accrual of interest is discontinued on loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality if management can no longer estimate future cash flows on the loan. Therefore, interest revenue, through accretion of the difference between the carrying value of the loans and the expected cash flows, is being recognized on all loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality, except those on which management can no longer estimate future cash flows.

(1) | Excludes loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality that are past due 90 or more days totaling $23 thousand and $32 thousand as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Total nonperforming assets were $6.3 million at June 30, 2022, increasing slightly since December 31, 2021. Our level of nonperforming assets has remained low in recent years, representing only 0.15% and 0.14% of total assets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We believe our continuous credit monitoring and collection efforts have resulted in lower levels of nonperforming assets, while also recognizing that favorable economic conditions prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and substantial federal economic stimulus during the pandemic have also contributed to these lower levels.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

In general, if the Company grants a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) that involves either the absence of principal amortization or a material extension of an existing loan amortization period in excess of our underwriting standards, the loan will be placed on nonaccrual status. However, if a TDR is well secured by an abundance of collateral and the collectability of both interest and principal is probable, the loan may remain on accrual status. A nonaccrual TDR in full compliance with the payment requirements specified in the loan modification for at least six months may return to accrual status, if the collectability of both principal and interest is probable. All TDRs are individually evaluated for impairment.

The following table presents TDRs by loan category.

TDRs have remained a small portion of our loan portfolio as loan modifications to borrowers with deteriorating financial condition are generally offered only as part of an overall workout strategy to minimize losses to the Company.

Risk Classification of Loans

Our policies, consistent with regulatory guidelines, provide for the classification of loans and other assets that are considered to be of lesser quality as pass-watch, substandard, doubtful, or loss.

A pass-watch loan is still considered a "pass" credit and is not a classified or criticized asset, but is a reflection of a borrower who exhibits credit weaknesses or downward trends warranting close attention and increased monitoring. These potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan. No loss of principal or interest is expected, and the borrower does not pose sufficient risk to warrant classification.

A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized as probable that the borrower will not pay principal and interest in accordance with the contractual terms.

An asset classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one 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. Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted; such balances are promptly charged-off as required by applicable federal regulations.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our risk classifications of loans were as follows:

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ |  | June 30, 2022 |  | December 31, 2021
​ |  | (dollars in thousands)
Pass | ​ | $ | 2,307,449 | ​ | $ | 2,269,228
Pass-watch | ​ |  | 63,564 | ​ |  | 148,285
Substandard | ​ |  | 80,813 | ​ |  | 82,176
Doubtful | ​ |  | — | ​ |  | —
Total | ​ | $ | 2,451,826 | ​ | $ | 2,499,689

​

Pass-watch loans decreased $84.7 million, or 57.1% and substandard loans decreased $1.4 million, or 1.7%, from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022. This overall improvement was primarily driven by better economic conditions, relative to 2021, which resulted in both risk rating upgrades and paydowns.

​

The net charge-offs (recoveries) to average total loans before allowance for loan losses ratio has remained low for several years. We believe our continuous credit monitoring and collection efforts have resulted in lower levels of loan losses, while also recognizing that favorable economic conditions prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and substantial federal economic stimulus during the pandemic have also contributed to reduced loan losses.

Securities

The Company’s investment policy emphasizes safety of the principal, liquidity needs, expected returns, cash flow targets and consistency with our interest rate risk management strategy. The composition and maturities of the debt securities portfolio as of June 30, 2022, are summarized in the following table. Maturities are based on the final contractual payment dates, and do not reflect the impact of prepayments or early redemptions that may occur. Security yields have not been adjusted to a tax-equivalent basis.

The average balances of non-maturity deposits increased 11.5% from the three months ended June 30, 2021 to the three months ended June 30, 2022, with the increase primarily attributable to higher balances maintained by deposit customers following the receipt of federal economic stimulus, in the form of PPP loan proceeds by commercial customers and direct payments received by retail customers, although this trend reversed slightly late in the second quarter of 2022. Additionally, the NXT acquisition added $139.4 million of non-maturity deposits on October 1, 2021. Time deposits decreased slightly due to continued run-off of higher cost time deposits which were mostly offset by the addition of $42.1 million of time deposits acquired from NXT.

​

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

The average balances of non-maturity deposits increased 14.6% from the six months ended June 30, 2021 to the six months ended June 30, 2022, with the increase primarily attributable to higher balances maintained by deposit customers following the receipt of federal economic stimulus, in the form of PPP loan proceeds by commercial customers and direct payments received by retail customers, although this trend reversed slightly late in the second quarter of 2022. Additionally, the NXT acquisition added $139.4 million of non-maturity deposits on October 1, 2021.

LIQUIDITY

Bank Liquidity

The overall objective of bank liquidity management is to ensure the availability of sufficient cash funds to meet all financial commitments and to take advantage of investment opportunities. The Bank manages liquidity in order to meet deposit withdrawals on demand or at contractual maturity, to repay borrowings as they mature, and to fund new loans and investments as opportunities arise.

The Bank continuously monitors its liquidity positions to ensure that assets and liabilities are managed in a manner that will meet all of our short-term and long-term cash requirements. The Bank manages its liquidity position to meet our daily cash flow needs, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives. The Bank also monitors liquidity requirements in light of interest rate trends, changes in the economy, the scheduled maturity and interest rate sensitivity of the investment and loan portfolios and deposits, and regulatory capital requirements.

As part of the Bank’s liquidity management strategy, the Bank is also focused on minimizing costs of liquidity and attempts to decrease these costs by promoting noninterest bearing and low-cost deposits and replacing higher cost funding including time deposits and borrowed funds. While the Bank does not control the types of deposit instruments our clients choose, those choices can be influenced with the rates and the deposit specials offered.

Additional sources of liquidity include unpledged securities, federal funds purchased, and borrowings from the FHLB. Unpledged securities may be sold or pledged as collateral for borrowings to meet liquidity needs. Interest is charged at the prevailing market rate on federal funds purchased and FHLB borrowings. Funds available through federal funds purchased and FHLB borrowings are used primarily to meet daily liquidity needs. The total remaining credit available to the Bank from the FHLB at June 30, 2022 was $361.6 million.

As of June 30, 2022, management believed adequate liquidity existed to meet all projected cash flow obligations of the Bank. As of June 30, 2022, the Bank had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

Holding Company Liquidity

The Company is a corporation separate and apart from the Bank and, therefore, it must provide for its own liquidity. As of June 30, 2022, HBT Financial, Inc. had cash and cash equivalents of $24.0 million.

The Company’s main source of funding is dividends declared and paid to it by the Bank. Due to state banking laws, the Bank may not declare dividends in any calendar year in an amount that would exceed accumulated retained earnings, after giving effect to any unrecognized losses and bad debts, without the prior approval of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. In addition, dividends paid by the Bank to the Company would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause the Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements. Management believes that these limitations will not impact the Company’s ability to meet its ongoing short-term cash obligations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Bank paid $6.0 million and $12.0 million in dividends to the Company, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Bank did not pay a dividend to the Company.

The liquidity needs of the Company on an unconsolidated basis consist primarily of operating expenses, interest payments on the subordinated notes and junior subordinated debentures, and shareholder distributions in the form of dividends and stock repurchases. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, holding company operating expenses consisted of interest expense of $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively, and other operating expenses of $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, holding company operating expenses consisted of interest expense of $1.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively, and other operating expenses of $2.5 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

Additionally, the Company paid $4.7 million and $4.1 million of dividends to stockholders during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and paid $9.3 million and $8.2 million of dividends to stockholders during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, management was not aware of any known trends, events or uncertainties that had or were reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company’s liquidity.

As of June 30, 2022, management believed adequate liquidity existed to meet all projected cash flow obligations of the Company. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The overall objectives of capital management are to ensure the availability of sufficient capital to support loan, deposit and other asset and liability growth opportunities and to maintain capital to absorb unforeseen losses or write-downs that are inherent in the business risks associated with the banking industry. The Company seeks to balance the need for higher capital levels to address such unforeseen risks and the goal to achieve an adequate return on the capital invested by our stockholders.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Company and Bank are each subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements of the Company and the Bank.

In addition to meeting minimum capital requirements, the Company and the Bank must also maintain a “capital conservation buffer” to avoid becoming subject to restrictions on capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments to management. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the capital conservation buffer requirement was 2.5% of risk-weighted assets.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As a financial services provider, the Bank routinely is a party to various financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks, such as commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, unused lines of credit, commitments to sell loans, and interest rate swaps. While these contractual obligations represent our future cash requirements, a significant portion of commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon. Such commitments are subject to the same credit policies and approval process afforded to loans originated by the Bank. Although commitments to extend credit are considered while evaluating our allowance for loan losses, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no reserves for unfunded commitments. For additional information, see “Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies” to the consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company has established various accounting policies that govern the application of GAAP in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Critical accounting estimates are those that are critical to the portrayal and understanding of the Company's financial condition and results of operations and require management to make assumptions that are difficult, subjective or complex. These estimates involve judgments, assumptions and uncertainties that are susceptible to change. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending on the severity of such changes, the possibility of a materially different financial condition or materially different results of operations is a reasonable likelihood. Further, changes in accounting standards could impact the Company's critical accounting estimates.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2022. For more information, please refer to “Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2022.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain financial information determined by methods other than those in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present these non-GAAP financial measures, and accordingly believes that providing these measures may be useful for peer comparison purposes. These disclosures should not be viewed as substitutes for the results determined to be in accordance with GAAP; nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that may be presented by other companies. See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most closely comparable GAAP financial measures below.

Net Interest Income (Tax Equivalent Basis) | ● Net interest income adjusted for the tax-favored status of tax-exempt loans and securities. (1) ​ | ● We believe the tax equivalent basis is the preferred industry measurement of net interest income. ● Enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. ● We also sometimes refer to Net Interest Margin (Tax Equivalent Basis), which is Net Interest Income (Tax Equivalent Basis) divided by average interest-earning assets.
Efficiency Ratio (Tax Equivalent Basis) | ● Noninterest expense less amortization of intangible assets divided by the sum of net interest income (tax equivalent basis) and noninterest income. (1) | ● Provides a measure of productivity in the banking industry. ● Calculated to measure the cost of generating one dollar of revenue. That is, the ratio is designed to reflect the percentage of one dollar which must be expended to generate that dollar of revenue.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Managing risk is an essential part of successfully managing a financial institution. Our most prominent risk exposures are interest rate risk and credit risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk inherent in the normal course of lending and deposit-taking activities. Interest rate risk is the potential reduction of net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Management believes that our ability to successfully respond to changes in interest rates will have a significant impact on our financial results. To that end, management actively monitors and manages our interest rate exposure.

The Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is authorized by the Company’s board of directors, monitors our interest rate sensitivity and makes decisions relating to that process. The ALCO’s goal is to structure our asset/liability composition to maximize net interest income while managing interest rate risk so as to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and capital in either a rising or declining interest rate environment. Profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. A sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact our earnings because the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent or on the same basis.

We monitor the impact of changes in interest rates on our net interest income and economic value of equity (“EVE”) using rate shock analysis. Net interest income simulations measure the short-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest in a rigorous and explicit fashion. Our current financial position is combined with assumptions regarding future business to calculate net interest income under varying hypothetical rate scenarios. EVE measures our long-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest. EVE is defined as the present value of assets minus the present value of liabilities at a point in time. A decrease in EVE due to a specified rate change indicates a decline in the long-term earnings capacity of the balance sheet assuming that the rate change remains in effect over the life of the current balance sheet.

The following table sets forth the estimated impact on our EVE and net interest income of immediate and parallel changes in interest rates at the specified levels.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in EVE and net interest income requires that we make certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The EVE and net interest income table presented above assumes that the composition of our interest-rate-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and, accordingly, the data does not reflect any actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes in rates paid on certain deposit accounts based on local competitive factors, which could change the actual impact on EVE and net interest income. The table also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or the repricing characteristics of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the EVE and net interest income table provides an indication of our sensitivity to interest rate changes at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our net interest income and will differ from actual results.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that borrowers or counterparties will be unable or unwilling to repay their obligations in accordance with the underlying contractual terms. We manage and control credit risk in the loan portfolio by adhering to well-defined underwriting criteria and account administration standards established by management. Our loan policy documents underwriting standards, approval levels, exposure limits and other limits or standards deemed necessary and prudent. Portfolio diversification at the borrower, industry, and product levels is actively managed to mitigate concentration risk. In addition, credit risk management also includes an independent loan review process that assesses compliance with loan policy, compliance with loan documentation standards, accuracy of the risk rating and overall credit quality of the loan portfolio.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other members of the Company’s senior management. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
