AMES NATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Ames National Corporation (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the year-end audited financial statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments necessary to fairly present the financial results for the interim periods reported. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for an entire year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned banking subsidiaries (the “Banks”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period’s consolidated financial statements to present them on a basis comparable with the current period’s consolidated financial statements. Interest-bearing deposits in financial institutions and federal funds sold were reclassified as cash and cash equivalents in 2021 resulting in net cash used in investing activities decreasing by approximately $43 million. No other reclassifications were significant. The reclassifications had no effect on stockholders’ equity and net income of the prior periods.

Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill resulting from acquisitions is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually or whenever events change and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment loss has occurred. Goodwill is tested for impairment with an estimation of the fair value of a reporting unit.

The fair value of a reporting unit is the price that would be received to sell the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As none of the Company’s reporting units are publicly traded, individual reporting unit fair value determinations cannot be directly correlated to the Company’s stock price. Significant judgment is applied when goodwill is assessed for impairment. This judgment includes developing cash flow projections, selecting appropriate discount rates, identifying relevant market comparables, incorporating general economic and market conditions and selecting an appropriate control premium. The Company completed a quantitative assessment of goodwill as of October 1, 2021 which indicated that goodwill was not impaired. Subsequently, the Company determined there were no adverse changes in criteria and key considerations to the previous assessment. Accordingly, the Company concluded there is no impairment of goodwill as of September 30, 2022.

New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. Organizations will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances. Additionally, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. In October 2019, the FASB voted to approve amendments to the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies, as defined by the SEC, and other non-SEC reporting entities. The amendment delays the effective date for our Company until interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company continues collecting and retaining loan and credit data, along with refining the implementation of the software and its approach for determining the expected credit losses under the new guidance. The Company’s preliminary evaluation indicates the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 are expected to impact the Company’s financial statements. The impact will be influenced by the composition, characteristics, and quality of our loan and securities portfolios, as well as the economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date. The Company will continue to evaluate the extent of the potential impact.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU improve the usefulness of information provided to investors about certain loan refinancing, restructurings, and write-offs. The amendments eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) by creditors that have adopted ASU No. 2016-13. It also enhances disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Lastly, the amendments require that a public business entity disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

2. Dividends

On August 10, 2022, the Company declared a cash dividend on its common stock, payable on November 15, 2022 to stockholders of record as of November 1, 2022, equal to $0.27 per share.

Two dividends were declared during the three months ended September 30, 2021. Dividends are typically declared in one quarter and then paid in the subsequent quarter. Beginning in July 2020 the dividends were declared and paid in the same quarter before returning to the previous practice in August 2021.

3. Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share amounts were calculated using the weighted average shares outstanding during the periods presented. The weighted average outstanding shares for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was 8,992,167 and 9,119,871, respectively. The weighted average outstanding shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were 9,047,308 and 9,121,778, respectively. The Company had no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented.

4. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. No material changes in the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements have occurred since December 31, 2021.

5. Fair Value Measurements

Assets and liabilities carried at fair value are required to be classified and disclosed according to the process for determining fair value. There are three levels of determining fair value.

Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatility, prepayment speeds, credit risk); or inputs derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

Securities available-for-sale: Level 1 securities include U.S. Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets. U.S. government agencies, mortgage-backed securities, state and political subdivisions, and most corporate bonds are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Derivative financial instruments: The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate swaps accounted for as fair value hedges. The Company's derivative positions are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are valued using models generally accepted in the financial services industry and that use actively quoted or observable market input values from external market data providers and/or non-binding broker-dealer quotations. The fair value of the derivatives is determined using discounted cash flow models. These models’ key assumptions include the contractual terms of the respective contract along with significant observable inputs, including interest rates, yield curves, nonperformance risk and volatility.

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment or a change in previously recognized impairment). The following table presents the assets carried on the balance sheet (after specific reserves) by caption and by level within the valuation hierarchy as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

Evaluations of the underlying assets are completed for each collateral dependent impaired loan with a specific reserve. The types of collateral vary widely and could include accounts receivables, inventory, a variety of equipment and real estate. Collateral evaluations are reviewed and discounted as appropriate based on knowledge of the specific type of collateral. In the case of real estate, an independent appraisal may be obtained. Types of discounts considered included aging of receivables, condition of the collateral, potential market for the collateral and estimated disposal costs. These discounts will vary from loan to loan, thus providing a range would not be meaningful.

The methodologies used to determine fair value as of September 30, 2022 did not change from the methodologies described in the December 31, 2021 Annual Financial Statements.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit: The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreement and credit worthiness of the counterparties. The carrying value and fair value of the commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are not considered significant.

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.

Gross unrealized losses on debt securities totaled $96.5 million as of September 30, 2022. These unrealized losses are generally due to changes in interest rates or general market conditions. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, state or political subdivision, or corporations. Management then determines whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and reviews industry analysts’ reports. The Company’s procedures for evaluating investments in states, municipalities and political subdivisions include but are not limited to reviewing the offering statement and the most current available financial information, comparing yields to yields of bonds of similar credit quality, confirming capacity to repay, assessing operating and financial performance, evaluating the stability of tax revenues, considering debt profiles and local demographics, and for revenue bonds, assessing the source and strength of revenue structures for municipal authorities. These procedures, as applicable, are utilized for all municipal purchases and are utilized in whole or in part for monitoring the portfolio of municipal holdings. The Company does not utilize third party credit rating agencies as a primary component of determining if the municipal issuer has an adequate capacity to meet the financial commitments under the security for the projected life of the investment, and, therefore, does not compare internal assessments to those of the credit rating agencies. Credit rating downgrades are utilized as an additional indicator of credit weakness and as a reference point for historical default rates. Management concluded that the gross unrealized losses on debt securities were temporary. Due to potential changes in conditions, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in fair values and management’s assessments will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payment of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. The Company applies its normal loan review procedures to identify loans that should be evaluated for impairment.

10. Borrowings

On June 6, 2022, the Company advanced $4.0 million on a five-year promissory note at a rate of 3.35% with an unaffiliated bank. The Company had outstanding borrowings of $3.9 million as of September 30, 2022 and none as of December 31, 2021.

The Company had $23.6 million of short-term FHLB advances as of September 30, 2022 and $3.0 million of long-term FHLB advances as of December 31, 2021.

11. Derivative Financial Instruments

Fair Value Hedges

The Company uses interest rate swaps to convert certain long term fixed rate loans to floating rates to hedge interest rate risk exposure. The Company uses hedge accounting in accordance with ASC 815, with the unrealized gains and losses, representing the change in fair value of the derivative and the change in fair value of the risk being hedged on the related loan, being recorded in the consolidated statements of income. The ineffective portions of the unrealized gains or losses, if any, are recorded in interest income and interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.

The Company was required to pledge $1.0 million and $1.5 million of securities as collateral for these fair value hedges at September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

12. Income Taxes

The tax effects of temporary differences related to income taxes are included in deferred income taxes. The change in deferred income taxes since December 31, 2021 is due primarily to the increase in the unrealized losses on investment securities.

Effective June 17, 2022, the State of Iowa enacted a phased-in reduction to the bank franchise tax rate through annual reductions of 0.3% over a five-year period. The reduction commences in 2023 and results in the current rate of 5% declining to 3.5% in 2027. This rate decrease created a non-recurring reduction to the Company’s deferred income tax asset and increased income tax expense by $780 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

13. Commitments, Contingencies and Concentrations of Credit Risk

On June 9, 2022, the Company entered into a $3.7 million commitment with a contractor to remodel a branch in Ames, Iowa. The Company has $3.2 million of the commitment remaining at September 30, 2022.

14. Regulatory Matters

The Company and the Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements (as shown in the following table) can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators, which, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's and the Banks' capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Management believed the Company and the Banks met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject as of September 30, 2022.

The Company and the Banks are subject to the rules of the Basel III regulatory capital framework and related Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The rules included the implementation of a 2.5 percent capital conservation buffer that is added to the minimum requirements for capital adequacy purposes for all capital ratios except tier 1 capital to average assets. A banking organization with a capital conservation buffer of less than the required amount is subject to limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. At September 30, 2022, the capital ratios for the Company and the Banks were sufficient to meet the conservation buffer.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Ames National Corporation (the “Company”) is a bank holding company established in 1975 that owns and operates six bank subsidiaries in central, north-central and south-central Iowa (the “Banks”). The following discussion is provided for the consolidated operations of the Company and its Banks, First National Bank, Ames, Iowa (First National), State Bank & Trust Co. (State Bank), Boone Bank & Trust Co. (Boone Bank), Reliance State Bank (Reliance Bank), United Bank & Trust Co. (United Bank) and Iowa State Savings Bank (Iowa State Bank). The purpose of this discussion is to focus on significant factors affecting the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

The Company does not engage in any material business activities apart from its ownership of the Banks. Products and services offered by the Banks are for commercial and consumer purposes including loans, deposits and wealth management services. Wealth management services includes financial planning and managing trust, agencies, estates and investment brokerage accounts. The Company employs nineteen individuals to assist with financial reporting, human resources, audit, compliance, marketing, technology systems, training, real estate valuation services and the coordination of management activities, in addition to 247 full-time equivalent individuals employed by the Banks.

The Company’s primary competitive strategy is to utilize seasoned and competent Bank management and local decision making authority to provide customers with faster response times and more flexibility in the products and services offered. This strategy is viewed as providing an opportunity to increase revenues through creating a competitive advantage over other financial institutions. The Company also strives to remain operationally efficient to provide better profitability while enabling the Company to offer more competitive loan and deposit rates.

The principal sources of Company revenues and cash flow are: (i) interest and fees earned on loans made by the Company and Banks; (ii) interest on fixed income investments held by the Banks; (iii) fees on wealth management services provided by those Banks exercising trust powers; (iv) service fees on deposit accounts maintained at the Banks; (v) gain on sale of loans; and (vi) merchant and card fees. The Company’s principal expenses are: (i) interest expense on deposit accounts and other borrowings; (ii) provision for loan losses; (iii) salaries and employee benefits; (iv) data processing costs associated with maintaining the Banks’ loan and deposit functions; (v) occupancy expenses for maintaining the Bank’s facilities; and (vi) professional fees. The largest component contributing to the Company’s net income is net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on earning assets (primarily loans and investments) and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities (primarily deposits and other borrowings). One of management’s principal functions is to manage the spread between interest earned on earning assets and interest paid on interest bearing liabilities in an effort to maximize net interest income while maintaining an appropriate level of interest rate risk.

The Company had net income of $5.5 million, or $0.62 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to net income of $6.7 million, or $0.74 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in earnings is primarily the result of lower interest income on loans and higher interest expense on deposits, offset in part by an increase in interest income on taxable securities. The reduction in interest income on loans was primarily due to fewer Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) fees and interest recognized into income compared to the same period in 2021. Fees recognized from PPP loans during the three months ended September 30, 2022 were $2 thousand as compared to $1.7 million of fees during the three months ended September 30, 2021. The higher interest expense on deposits is due to an increase in market rates in 2022. The increase in interest income on taxable securities was primarily due to growth in the portfolio.

Table of Contents

Net loan charge-offs totaled $3 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to net loan recoveries of $31 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021. A credit for loan losses of $520 thousand was recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to a $94 thousand credit for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The credit for loan losses in 2022 was primarily due to a reduction in specific reserves and an overall improvement in the quality of the loan portfolio.

Challenges

Management has identified certain events or circumstances that may negatively impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations in the future and is attempting to position the Company to best respond to those challenges. These challenges are addressed in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 11, 2022.

Key Performance Indicators and Industry Results

Certain key performance indicators for the Company and the industry are presented in the following chart. The industry figures are compiled by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and are derived from 4,333 community banks and savings institutions insured by the FDIC. Management reviews these indicators on a quarterly basis for purposes of comparing the Company’s performance from quarter-to-quarter against the industry as a whole.

*Latest available data

Key performances indicators include:

● | Return on Assets

This ratio is calculated by dividing net income by average assets. It is used to measure how effectively the assets of the Company are being utilized in generating income. The Company's annualized return on average assets was 1.05% and 1.29% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This ratio decrease was primarily the result of lower net income.

● | Return on Equity

This ratio is calculated by dividing net income by average equity. It is used to measure the net income or return the Company generated for the shareholders’ equity investment in the Company. The Company's return on average equity was at 13.65% and 12.60% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This ratio increase was primarily the result of a decrease in the average balance of stockholders’ equity due an increase in unrealized losses on securities.

● | Net Interest Margin

The net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was 2.63% and 2.97%, respectively. The ratio is calculated by dividing tax equivalent net interest income by average earning assets. Earning assets are primarily made up of loans and investments that earn interest. This ratio is used to measure how well the Company is able to maintain interest rates on earning assets above those of interest-bearing liabilities, which is the interest expense paid on deposits and other borrowings.

● | Efficiency Ratio

This ratio is calculated by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income. The ratio is a measure of the Company’s ability to manage noninterest expenses. The Company’s efficiency ratio was 59.48% and 51.35% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The efficiency ratio has increased compared to the same quarter last year primarily due to a reduction in net interest income and an increase in noninterest expense.

● | Capital Ratio

The average capital ratio is calculated by dividing average total equity capital by average total assets. It measures the level of average assets that are funded by shareholders’ equity. Given an equal level of risk in the financial condition of two companies, the higher the capital ratio, generally the more financially sound the company. The Company’s capital ratio of 7.67% as of September 30, 2022 is lower than the industry average of 10.31% as of June 30, 2022 primarily due an increase in accumulated other comprehensive losses as interest rates have risen during the third quarter of 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion contained in this Item 2 and other disclosures included within this report are based, in part, on the Company’s audited December 31, 2021 consolidated financial statements. These statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial information contained in these statements is, for the most part, based on the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. However, the preparation of these statements requires management to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” accompanying the Company’s audited financial statements. Based on its consideration of accounting policies that involve the most complex and subjective estimates and judgments, management has identified the allowance for loan losses, the assessment of other-than-temporary impairment for investment securities and the assessment of goodwill impairment to be the Company’s most critical accounting policies.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses that is treated as an expense and charged against earnings. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that collectability of the principal is unlikely. The Company has policies and procedures for evaluating the overall credit quality of its loan portfolio, including timely identification of potential problem loans. On a quarterly basis, management reviews the appropriate level for the allowance for loan losses, incorporating a variety of risk considerations, both quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative factors include the Company’s historical loss experience, delinquency and charge-off trends, collateral values, known information about individual loans and other factors. Qualitative factors include various considerations regarding the general economic environment in the Company’s market area. To the extent actual results differ from forecasts and management’s judgment, the allowance for loan losses may be greater or lesser than future charge-offs. Due to potential changes in conditions, including economic disruption, high inflation levels, and rising interest rates, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term and that such changes could be material to the amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements.

For further discussion concerning the allowance for loan losses and the process of establishing specific reserves, see the section of the Annual Report on Form 10-K entitled “Asset Quality Review and Credit Risk Management” and “Analysis of the Allowance for Loan Losses”.

Fair Value and Other-Than-Temporary Impairment of Investment Securities

The Company’s securities available-for-sale portfolio is carried at fair value with “fair value” being defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price in the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability is not adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact, and (iv) willing to transact.

Declines in the fair value of available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other-than-temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers (1) the intent to sell the investment securities and the more likely than not requirement that the Company will be required to sell the investment securities prior to recovery (2) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost and (3) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer. Due to potential changes in conditions, including economic disruption, high inflation levels, and rising interest rates, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in management’s assessment of other-than-temporary impairment will occur in the near term and that such changes could be material to the amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements.

Goodwill

Goodwill arose in connection with four acquisitions consummated in previous periods. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or more often if conditions indicate a possible impairment. For the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, determination of the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Impairment would arise if the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. At September 30, 2022, Company’s management has completed the goodwill impairment assessment and determined goodwill was not impaired. Actual future test results may differ from the present evaluation of impairment due to changes in the conditions used in the current evaluation. The effects of economic disruption, high inflation levels, and rising interest rates may negatively impact our net income, fair value and correspondingly goodwill. An impairment of goodwill would decrease the Company’s earnings during the period in which the impairment is recorded.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report contains references to financial measures that are not defined in GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures include the Company’s presentation of net interest income and net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are widely used in the financial institutions industry and provide useful information to both management and investors to analyze and evaluate the Company’s financial performance. Limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures include the risks that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items included in these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be considered an alternative to the Company’s GAAP results. The following table reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures of net interest income and net interest margin on an FTE basis to GAAP (dollars in thousands).

Table of Contents

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, interest income increased $126 thousand, or 1%, when compared to the same period in 2021. The increase is primarily due to higher interest income on taxable securities and partially offset by fewer PPP fees and interest recognized into income. Taxable securities interest income was $970 thousand higher than the third quarter of 2021 due primarily to increased balances. Fees recognized from PPP loans during the third quarter of 2022 were $2 thousand as compared to $1.7 million of fees during the third quarter of 2021.

Interest expense increased $1.1 million, or 109%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021. The higher interest expense for the period is primarily due to an increase in market rates on deposits. In 2022, the Federal Open Market Committee has increased its target for the federal funds interest rate by 3.00%.

Provision (Credit) for Loan Losses

A credit for loan losses of ($520) thousand was recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to a credit for loan losses of ($94) thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Net loan charge-offs totaled $3 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to net loan recoveries of $31 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The credit for loan losses in 2022 was primarily due to a reduction in specific reserves and an overall improvement in the quality of the loan portfolio.

Noninterest Income and Expense

Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $2.3 million compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of 14%. The decrease in noninterest income was primarily due to fewer gains on sale of residential loans held for sale as refinancing volume has slowed as mortgage rates have risen.

Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $9.5 million compared to $8.9 million recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of 7%. The increase is primarily due to data processing costs as a result of additional investments in technology and normal increases in salaries and benefits. The efficiency ratio was 59.5% for the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 51.4% in the third quarter of 2021.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $1.4 million compared to $1.8 million recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The effective tax rate was 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The lower than expected tax rate in 2022 and 2021 was due primarily to tax-exempt interest income and New Markets Tax Credits.

Balance Sheet Review

As of September 30, 2022, total assets were $2.09 billion, a $50.1 million decrease compared to December 31, 2021. This decrease in assets is primarily due to an increase in unrealized losses and offset in part by purchases in the investment portfolio. The purchase of investments was primarily funded by a decrease in interest-bearing deposits in financial institutions and federal funds sold.

Investment Portfolio

The investment portfolio totaled $784.0 million as of September 30, 2022, a decrease of $47.0 million from the December 31, 2021 balance of $831.0 million. The decrease in securities available-for-sale is primarily due to a decline in fair value, offset in part by purchases of investments. The decline in fair value occurred as a result of interest rates increasing during 2022. In 2022, the Federal Open Market Committee has increased its target for the federal funds interest rate by 3.00%.

On a quarterly basis, the investment portfolio is reviewed for other-than-temporary impairment. As of September 30, 2022, gross unrealized losses of $96.5 million, are considered to be temporary in nature due to the interest rate environment and other general economic factors. Certain bonds in the investment portfolio may become other-than-temporarily impaired and could negatively affect the Company’s net income. As a result of the Company’s favorable liquidity position, the Company does not have the intent to sell securities with an unrealized loss at the present time. In addition, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will hold these securities until recovery of their fair value to cost basis and expects full principal and interest to be collected. Therefore, the Company does not consider these investments to have other-than-temporary impairment as of September 30, 2022.

At September 30, 2022, the Company’s investment securities portfolio included securities issued by 294 government municipalities and agencies located within 29 states with a fair value of $280.5 million. At December 31, 2021, the Company’s investment securities portfolio included securities issued by 298 government municipalities and agencies located within 28 states with a fair value of $292.9 million. No one municipality or agency represents a concentration within this segment of the investment portfolio. Storm Lake, Iowa, general obligation bonds with a fair value of $5.7 million (approximately 2.0% of the fair value of the government municipalities and agencies) represent the largest exposure to any one municipality or agency for the Company as of September 30, 2022; the bonds are repayable from the levy of continuing annual tax on all the taxable property within the territory of the city of Storm Lake.

The Company’s procedures for evaluating investments in states, municipalities and political subdivisions include but are not limited to reviewing the offering statement and the most current available financial information, comparing yields to yields of bonds of similar credit quality, confirming capacity to repay, assessing operating and financial performance, evaluating the stability of tax revenues, considering debt profiles and local demographics, and for revenue bonds, assessing the source and strength of revenue structures for municipal authorities. These procedures, as applicable, are utilized for all municipal purchases and are utilized in whole or in part for monitoring the portfolio of municipal holdings. The Company does not utilize third party credit rating agencies as a primary component of determining if the municipal issuer has an adequate capacity to meet the financial commitments under the security for the projected life of the investment, and, therefore, does not compare internal assessments to those of the credit rating agencies. Credit rating downgrades are utilized as an additional indicator of credit weakness and as a reference point for historical default rates.

Loan Portfolio

The loan portfolio, net of the allowance for loan losses, totaled $1.18 billion and $1.14 billion as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the 1-4 family residential loan portfolio, offset in part by a decrease in agricultural operating loans.

Deposits

Deposits totaled $1.87 billion and $1.88 billion as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The change in deposits since December 31, 2021 was due to decreases in noninterest-bearing deposits and time deposits, partially offset by an increase in interest-bearing checking. Deposit balances fluctuate as customers’ liquidity needs vary at any given time and could be impacted by prevailing market interest rates, competition, and economic conditions.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. No material changes in the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements have occurred since December 31, 2021.

Asset Quality Review and Credit Risk Management

The Company’s credit risk is historically centered in the loan portfolio, which totaled $1.18 and $1.14 billion as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Net loans comprise 56% of total assets as of September 30, 2022. The objective in managing loan portfolio risk is to reduce the risk of loss resulting from a customer’s failure to perform according to the terms of an agreement and to quantify and manage credit risk on a portfolio basis. The Company’s level of problem loans (consisting of nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more) as a percentage of total loans was 1.28% at September 30, 2022, as compared to 1.11% at December 31, 2021. The Company’s level of problem loans as a percentage of total loans at September 30, 2022 of 1.28% is higher as compared to the Iowa State Average peer group of FDIC insured institutions as of June 30, 2022, of 0.40%, most recent available.

Impaired loans totaled $15.0 million as of September 30, 2022 and have increased $2.7 million as compared to the impaired loans of $12.3 million as of December 31, 2021. The increase is primarily due to one borrower with no associated specific reserve.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payment of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. The Company applies its normal loan review procedures to identify loans that should be evaluated for impairment.

The Company had TDRs of $10.8 million as of September 30, 2022 and $11.3 million as of December 31, 2021, all of which were included in impaired and nonaccrual loans.

Table of Contents

TDRs are monitored and reported on a quarterly basis. Certain TDRs are on nonaccrual status at the time of restructuring. These borrowings are typically returned to accrual status after the following: sustained repayment performance in accordance with the restructuring agreement for a reasonable period of at least nine months; and, management is reasonably assured of future performance. If the TDR meets these performance criteria and the interest rate granted at the modification is equal to or greater than the rate that the Company was willing to accept at the time of the restructuring for a new loan with comparable risk, then the loan will return to performing status.

For TDRs that were on nonaccrual status before the modification, a specific reserve may already be recorded. In periods subsequent to modification, the Company will continue to evaluate all TDRs for possible impairment and, as necessary, recognize impairment through the allowance. No additional specific reserve was provided for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company had no charge-offs for TDRs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The Company had no charge-offs and $262 thousand of recoveries for TDR’s for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The Company does not have material commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers with loans whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings or whose loans are on nonaccrual.

Loans past due 90 days or more that are still accruing interest are reviewed no less frequently than quarterly to determine if there continues to be a strong reason that the credit should not be placed on nonaccrual. As of September 30, 2022, nonaccrual loans totaled $15.2 million and there were $12 thousand of loans past due 90 days and still accruing. This compares to nonaccrual loans of $12.7 million and loans past due 90 days and still accruing totaled $169 thousand as of December 31, 2021. The increase in nonaccrual loans is primarily due to one borrower with no associated specific reserve. There was no real estate owned and $218 thousand as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The watch and special mention loans classified as agricultural real estate and operating totaled $35.7 million as of September 30, 2022 as compared to $36.5 million as of December 31, 2021. The substandard and impaired loans in these categories totaled $5.9 million and $7.4 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The watch and special mention loans classified as commercial real estate totaled $71.7 million as of September 30, 2022 as compared to $102.2 million as of December 31, 2021. The substandard and impaired commercial real estate loans totaled $34.6 million and $31.8 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in substandard and impaired commercial real estate loans is due to one borrower with no associated specific reserve.

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of outstanding loans as of September 30, 2022 was 1.33%, as compared to 1.43% at December 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses totaled $15.9 million and $16.6 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The decrease in the allowance for loan losses is mainly due to lower specific reserves and improved quality of the loan portfolio, offset in part by loan growth.

The allowance for loan losses is management’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. Factors considered in establishing an appropriate allowance include: an assessment of the financial condition of the borrower, a realistic determination of value and adequacy of underlying collateral, the condition of the local economy and the condition of the specific industry of the borrower, an analysis of the levels and trends of loan categories and a review of delinquent and classified loans. Due to potential changes in conditions, including economic disruption, high inflation levels, and rising interest rates, additional increases in the allowance for loan losses are possible.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity management is the process by which the Company, through its Banks’ Asset and Liability Committees (ALCO), ensures that adequate liquid funds are available to meet its financial commitments on a timely basis, at a reasonable cost and within acceptable risk tolerances. These commitments include funding credit obligations to borrowers, funding of mortgage originations pending delivery to the secondary market, withdrawals by depositors, maintaining adequate collateral for pledging for public funds, trust deposits and borrowings, paying dividends to shareholders, payment of operating expenses, funding capital expenditures and maintaining deposit reserve requirements.

Liquidity is derived primarily from core deposit growth and retention; principal and interest payments on loans; principal and interest payments, sale, maturity and prepayment of securities available-for-sale; net cash provided from operations; and access to other funding sources. Other funding sources include federal funds purchased lines, FHLB advances and other capital market sources.

As of September 30, 2022, the level of liquidity and capital resources of the Company remain at a satisfactory level. Management believes that the Company's liquidity sources will be sufficient to support its existing operations for the foreseeable future.

The liquidity and capital resources discussion will cover the following topics:

● | Review of the Company’s Current Liquidity Sources

● | Review of Statements of Cash Flows

● | Company Only Cash Flows

● | Review of Commitments for Capital Expenditures, Cash Flow Uncertainties and Known Trends in Liquidity and Cash Flows Needs

● | Capital Resources

Review of the Company’s Current Liquidity Sources

Liquid assets of cash on hand, balances due from other banks and interest-bearing deposits in financial institutions as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 totaled $29.3 million and $89.1 million, respectively, and management believes these sources provide an adequate level of liquidity given current economic conditions.

Other sources of liquidity available to the Banks as of September 30, 2022 include outstanding lines of credit with the FHLB of Des Moines, Iowa of $287.2 million, with $23.6 million of outstanding FHLB advances. Federal funds borrowing capacity at correspondent banks was $100.4 million, with no outstanding federal fund purchase balances as of September 30, 2022. The Company had securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaling $41.1 million as of September 30, 2022.

Total investments as of September 30, 2022 were $784.0 million compared to $831.0 million as of December 31, 2021. These investments provide the Company with liquidity since all of the investments are classified as available-for-sale as of September 30, 2022. The investment portfolio serves an important role in the overall context of balance sheet management in terms of balancing capital utilization and liquidity. The decision to purchase or sell securities is based upon the current assessment of economic and financial conditions, including the interest rate environment, liquidity and credit considerations. The portfolio’s scheduled maturities and payments represent a significant source of liquidity.

Review of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $15.0 million compared to $23.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease of $8.7 million in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to lower net income and fewer net proceeds from loans held for sale.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $86.0 million compared to $177.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease of $91.3 million in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to fewer purchases of investments.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $11.1 million compared to $111.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities of $100.6 million was primarily due to a decrease in deposits between periods. As of September 30, 2022, the Company did not have any external debt financing, off-balance sheet financing arrangements, or derivative instruments linked to its stock.

Review of Company Only Cash Flows

The Company’s liquidity on an unconsolidated basis is heavily dependent upon dividends paid to the Company by the Banks. The Banks provide adequate liquidity to pay the Company’s expenses and stockholder dividends. Dividends paid by the Banks to the Company amounted to $7.6 million and $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Various federal and state statutory provisions limit the amounts of dividends banking subsidiaries are permitted to pay to their holding companies without regulatory approval. Federal Reserve policy further limits the circumstances under which bank holding companies may declare dividends. For example, a bank holding company should not continue its existing rate of cash dividends on its common stock unless its net income is sufficient to fully fund each dividend and its prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with its capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. In addition, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC have issued policy statements, which provide that insured banks and bank holding companies should generally pay dividends only out of current operating earnings. Federal and state banking regulators may also restrict the payment of dividends by order.

The Company, on an unconsolidated basis, has interest-bearing deposits totaling $3.9 million as of September 30, 2022.

Review of Commitments for Capital Expenditures, Cash Flow Uncertainties and Known Trends in Liquidity and Cash Flows Needs

On June 9, 2022, the Company entered into a commitment with a contractor to remodel a branch in Ames, Iowa for $3.7 million. The Company has $3.2 million of the commitment remaining at September 30, 2022. No other material capital expenditures or material changes in the capital resource mix are anticipated at this time. The primary cash flow uncertainty would be a sudden decline in deposits causing the Banks to liquidate securities. Historically, the Banks have maintained an adequate level of short-term marketable investments to fund the temporary declines in deposit balances. There are no known trends in liquidity and cash flow needs as of September 30, 2022 that are of concern to management.

Capital Resources

The Company’s total stockholders’ equity as of September 30, 2022 totaled $137.3 million and was $70.5 million less than the $207.8 million recorded as of December 31, 2021. The decrease in stockholders’ equity was primarily the result of an increase in unrealized losses on the investment portfolio and stock repurchases, offset in part by the retention of net income in excess of dividends. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, stockholders’ equity as a percentage of total assets was 6.6% and 9.7%, respectively. The capital levels of the Company exceed applicable regulatory guidelines as of September 30, 2022. Unrealized losses on the investment portfolio are excluded from regulatory capital.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's market risk is comprised primarily of interest rate risk arising from its core banking activities of lending and deposit taking. Interest rate risk results from the changes in market interest rates which may adversely affect the Company's net interest income. Our results of operations, like those of other financial institutions, are impacted by changes in interest rates and the interest rate sensitivity of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management continually develops and applies strategies to mitigate this risk. The Company’s primary market risk exposure has increased in 2022 due to rising short-term interest rates and an inversion of the treasury yield curve. Exposure to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the asset/liability committees of the bank subsidiaries. Economic uncertainty and high inflation levels may cause market rates to continue to deviate from historical norms.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
