| Company Overview Headquartered in Poplar Bluff, MO, with locations across Missouri, including in the Kansas City, Springfield, and St. Louis, MO, Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs), in northeast and north-central Arkansas, and in southern Illinois. Consolidated assets totaled $4.6 billion as of December 31, 2023. Loans, net, totaled $3.7 billion; deposits were $4.0 billion; stockholders’ equity totaled $470.2 million. The Company completed its merger with Citizens Bancshares Co., Kansas City, Missouri ("Citizens"), effective January 20, 2023; the Company completed the merger of Citizens Bank and Trust Company with and into Southern Bank effective late February 2023. At December 31, 2022, Citizens had reported total consolidated assets of $973 million, including loans, net, of $463 million, and deposits of $838 million. Tangible common equity* of $391.1 million results in TBV/common share* of $34.65 at December 31, 2023, which has grown at a compounded annual growth rate of 9.3% since June 30, 2019. During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the bank sold securities with a book value of $12.4 million, realizing a loss of $682,000 reflected in noninterest income. These proceeds were reinvested into $11.9 million in higher yielding fixed rate securities, which is expected to result in an earn back of the realized loss in under two years. Recognition of this loss during the quarter reduced after-tax net income by $541,000, and earnings per diluted share by $0.05. The Company’s noninterest expense was significantly impacted in FY 2023 by non-recurring merger-related expenses. Primarily attributable to the Citizens merger, these totaled $4.9 million in FY 2023, as compared to similar charges which, on net, totaled $1.3 million in FY 2022, attributable to the Fortune merger. These charges, net of tax, reduced diluted EPS by $0.42 in FY 2023, as compared to $0.11 in FY 2022. * See “Important Statements – Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures. 2

| Company Overview (cont.) The Company’s provision for credit losses (PCL) was also significantly impacted in FY 2023 by the Citizens merger, as we made provisions as required under ASU 2016-13 (the “CECL Standard”) to fund the level of the allowance for credit losses (ACL) necessary for most acquired loans. (For purchased credit deteriorated [“PCD”] loans, the ACL is funded through adjustments to purchase accounting.)This fiscal 2023 charge totaled $7.0 million, as compared to a similar charge which totaled $2.0 million in FY 2022, attributable to the Fortune merger. These charges, net of tax, reduced diluted EPS by $0.53 in FY 2023, as compared to $0.17 in FY 2022. The Company recorded a PCL of $900,000 in the three-month period ended December 31, 2023, as compared to a PCL of $1.1 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. In February 2022, the Company completed a merger with Fortune Financial, Inc., parent of FortuneBank, with one branch in each of Jefferson and St. Louis Counties, Missouri, both located within the St. Louis, Missouri, MSA. At closing, Fortune’s consolidated assets were $255 million, including loans, at fair value, of $202 million, while deposits, at fair value, totaled $214 million. Consideration was comprised of stock and cash at a 60:40 ratio. In December 2021, the Company assumed the deposits and acquired the Cairo, Illinois, branch location of First National Bank, Oldham, South Dakota. The branch, located in the Cape Girardeau, MO/IL MSA, held approximately $29 million in deposits, and the Company consolidated its existing Cairo, Illinois, facility with the acquired branch location. Acquisitions from 2014 to 2020 included Central Federal Savings and Loan (Rolla, Missouri), First Commercial Bank (Southeast Missouri), Southern Missouri Bank of Marshfield (Springfield, Missouri MSA), Capaha Bank (Cape Girardeau, Missouri MSA), and Peoples Bank of the Ozarks (locations primarily in the Springfield, Missouri MSA), adding an aggregate of $605 million in loans and $677 million in deposits. 3

| Important Statements Forward Looking Statements This presentation may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”). These forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements with respect to anticipated future operating and financial performance, growth opportunities, interest rates, cost savings and funding advantages expected or anticipated to be realized by management. Words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward looking statements. Forward-looking statements by the Company and its management are based on beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions of management and are not guarantees of future performance. The important factors we discuss below, as well as other factors identified in this filing and in our other filings with the SEC and those presented elsewhere by our management from time to time, could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this document: expected cost savings, synergies and other benefits from our merger and acquisition activities, including our ongoing and recently completed acquisitions, might not be realized within the anticipated time frames, to the extent anticipated, or at all, and costs or difficulties relating to integration matters, including but not limited to customer and employee retention, might be greater than expected; the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct operations, including unemployment levels and labor shortages; the remaining effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on general changes in economic conditions, either nationally or in the Company’s market and lending areas; fluctuations in interest rates and the possibility of a recession whether caused by Federal Reserve actions or otherwise; monetary and fiscal policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”) and the U.S. Government and other governmental initiatives affecting the financial services industry; the risks of lending and investing activities, including changes in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses; our ability to access cost-effective funding; the timely development of and acceptance of our new products and services and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors’ products and services; fluctuations in real estate values and both residential and commercial real estate markets, as well as agricultural business conditions; demand for loans and deposits in our market areas or in the United States in general; legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business; natural disasters, war, terrorist activities or civil unrest and their effects on economic and business environments in which the Company operates; changes in accounting principles, policies, or guidelines; 14

| Forward Looking Statements, continued results of examinations of us by our regulators, including the possibility that our regulators may, among other things, require us to increase our allowance for credit losses or to write-down the carrying value of assets; the impact of technological changes; and our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements based on the occurrence of future events, the receipt of new information, or otherwise. Financial Data Financial information presented for the years ended June 30, and as of the second fiscal quarter 2024, the six-month period ended December 31, is provided on a preliminary basis and is unaudited. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Tangible common equity, tangible book value per common share, core diluted earnings per common share, and core net interest margin are financial measures determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. We calculate tangible common equity by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common stockholders’ equity. We calculate tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, less restricted common shares not vested, as compared to book value per common share, which we calculate by dividing common stockholders’ equity by common shares outstanding, less restricted common shares not vested. We believe that this is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which generally exclude intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios. We calculate core diluted earnings per common share by excluding from net interest income the accretion of fair value discount on the acquired loan portfolio and amortization of fair value premium on the acquired time deposit portfolio resulting from the fiscal 2015 acquisition of Peoples Bank of the Ozarks (the Peoples Acquisition), the fiscal 2017 acquisition of Capaha Bank (the Capaha Acquisition), the fiscal 2018 acquisition of Southern Missouri Bank of Marshfield (the SMB-Marshfield Acquisition), the fiscal 2019 acquisition of First Commercial Bank (the First Commercial Acquisition), the fiscal 2020 acquisition of Central Federal Savings & Loan Association (the Central Federal Acquisition), the fiscal 2022 acquisition of FortuneBank (the FortuneBank Acquisition), and the fiscal 2023 acquisition of Citizens Bank and Trust Company (the Citizens Acquisition). We also exclude from noninterest expense the acquisition expenses we incurred during fiscal years 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023 and 2024 year to date resulting from the acquisitions we undertook during those periods. We believe that core diluted earnings per common share is useful in assessing our core operating performance, particularly when comparing periods or when comparing our operating performance to the operating performance of our industry peers. We calculate core net interest margin by excluding from net interest income the accretion of fair value discount on the acquired loan portfolio and amortization of fair value premium on the acquired time deposit portfolio resulting from the Peoples Acquisition, the Capaha Acquisition, the SMB-Marshfield Acquisition, the First Commercial Acquisition, the Central Federal Acquisition, the FortuneBank Acquisition, and the Citizens Acquisition. We believe that each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding our capital position and ratios. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures of tangible common equity, tangible book value per common share, core diluted earnings per common share, and core net interest margin to the GAAP measures of common stockholders’ equity, book value per common share, diluted earnings per common share, and net interest margin are set forth below.
