Current report
As of July 1, 2025, Bancorp Financial had approximately $1.43 billion of total assets, $1.19 billion of total loans, and $1.23 billion of total deposits. The consideration paid totaled $189.4 million and consisted of 7.9 million shares of Old Second common stock and $48.9 million of cash. The systems conversion was successfully completed in October 2025.
Current report
1Adjusted net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, uses a blended income tax rate of 24.74%, which is slightly higher than the effective tax rate utilized for GAAP earnings due to the tax treatment of certain acquisition related costs.
Current report
Noninterest income increased $2.2 million, or 20.3%, in the third quarter of 2025, compared to the second quarter of 2025, and increased $2.5 million, or 23.9%, compared to the third quarter of 2024. The increase from the second quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by a $412,000 increase in wealth management income based on continued growth in the advisory and estate planning, a $485,000 increase in the cash surrender value of BOLI due to changes in market interest rates, a $430,000 death benefit realized on BOLI recorded during the quarter, and a $513,000 increase in other income driven by powersport fees provided by legacy Bancorp Financial loan portfolio acquired.
Current report
Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2025 increased $19.7 million, or 45.5%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, and increased $23.9 million, or 60.7%, compared to the third quarter of 2024. The increase in the third quarter of 2025, compared to the second quarter of 2025 was driven by $11.5 million of acquisition costs, net of gains or losses on branch sales or 59.8% of the increase during the quarter. Significant changes in the period include a $12.8 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, of which $8.4 million was due to change in control, retention, and severance payouts related to the Bancorp Financial acquisition. Other increases include a $1.3 million increase in computer and data processing expenses, a $1.9 million increase in consulting & management fees, and a $2.1 million increase in other expenses, which were primarily due to costs incurred as a result of our acquisition of Bancorp Financial.

Recent Developments – Legislative and Regulatory Matters
Current report
In addition to tax-related changes, the regulatory landscape for financial institutions continued to evolve in 2025 through a series of legislative, regulatory, and judicial actions. The federal banking agencies have proposed rescinding the 2023 Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) modernization rule and reinstating the 1995 framework with technical and inflation-indexed updates. We are evaluating potential effects on our CRA program and related compliance processes.
Current report
Separately, Congress nullified the CFPB’s overdraft rule, and a federal court vacated the CFPB’s credit-card late-fee rule. The CFPB has also paused enforcement of its Section 1071 small-business-lending data-collection rule, and repeal legislation remains under consideration. These developments have created uncertainty regarding the future scope and timing of consumer-compliance requirements applicable to the banking industry.
Current report
The FDIC has proposed inflation-adjusted revisions to certain regulatory thresholds, and Congress is considering legislation to modify capital-requirement thresholds and streamline merger-review procedures. Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of the Treasury continues to advance modernization of the Bank Secrecy Act and related anti-money-laundering regulations, and federal policymakers are evaluating potential frameworks for stablecoin and digital-asset regulation. The OCC has also realigned its supervisory structure to enhance coordination across midsize and community-bank portfolios.
Current report
We are monitoring these developments and evaluating potential implications for our operations, compliance obligations, and regulatory-capital management. Although the ultimate timing and impact of these initiatives remain uncertain, we do not currently expect any of them to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations, but our evaluation is ongoing.
Current report
The addition of the powersports loan portfolio has given us a more balanced loan portfolio by broadening the scope of our consumer lending and offering a higher yield in a lower rate environment. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we originated $114.0 million powersport loans with a weighted average yield of 10.25%. As of September 30, 2025, the weighted average FICO score of the entire powersport portfolio is 730.

Deposits increased 20.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to December 31, 2024. The notable increase in deposits is due to the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. These deposits have a moderately higher cost profile which increased average rate paid by 19 basis points.

Previous report
Noninterest income increased $697,000, or 6.8%, in the second quarter of 2025, compared to the first quarter of 2025, and decreased $229,000, or 2.1%, compared to the second quarter of 2024. The increase from the first quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by a $304,000 increase in card related income and a $192,000 increase in the cash surrender value of BOLI due to changes in market interest rates related to our COLI investments.
Previous report
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2025 decreased $1.1 million, or 2.4%, compared to the first quarter of 2025, and increased $5.5 million, or 14.6%, compared to the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in the second quarter of 2025, compared to the first quarter of 2025, was attributable to a $1.8 million decrease in other real estate owned (“OREO”) expense, net, as the second quarter of 2025 reflects a $76,000 gain on the sale of OREO compared to a $236,000 net loss on the sale of OREO properties in the first quarter of 2025, as well as a $297,000 decrease in OREO valuation expenses and a $1.2 million decrease in other OREO expenses due to lower operating costs driven by the sale of a large OREO property in the first quarter of 2025. Partially offsetting the decrease in noninterest expense over the prior linked quarter was a $344,000 increase in computer and data processing due to Bancorp Financial acquisition-related costs, a $153,000 increase in advertising expenses mainly due to advertising and art production costs for a brand awareness campaign, and a $234,000 increase in other expenses primarily due to filing and printing fees for the annual proxy and for SEC filings related to the Bancorp Financial merger.

Net income was relatively flat compared to the prior year, and variances included an increase of $5.5 million in noninterest expense and a $229,000 decrease in noninterest income, partially offset by a $4.5 million increase in net interest and dividend income and a $1.3 million decrease in provision for credit losses. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes mortgage servicing rights mark to market activity and certain nonrecurring items, as applicable, was $22.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $20.6 million for the first quarter of 2025, and $21.2 million for the second quarter of 2024.
Current wording
Our results of operations for the third quarter of 2025 include three full months of Bancorp Financial operations. Net income for the third quarter of 2025 was $9.9 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to $21.8 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2025, and $23.0 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024. Net income decreased significantly compared to the prior year like quarter, primarily due to the impact of the Bancorp Financial acquisition legal close and purchase accounting adjustments. Variances included an increase of $23.9 million in noninterest expense, a $17.7 million increase in provision for credit losses, and a $5.8 million increase in interest expense, partially offset by a $28.0 million increase in interest and dividend income, a $2.5 million increase in noninterest income and a $3.7 million decrease in provision for income taxes. Net income in the third quarter of 2025 was negatively impacted by Day Two non-PCD provision for loan losses recorded of $13.2 million, as well as acquisition costs, net of gains on branch sales, of $11.5 million, which primarily increased noninterest expense. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes Day Two provision for credit loss adjustments, death benefits related to BOLI, mortgage servicing rights mark to market gains or losses, and acquisition related costs, net of gains on branch sales, as applicable, was $28.4 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $22.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, and $24.0 million for the third quarter of 2024.

Previous wording
Our income before taxes was $29.2 million in both the second quarter of 2025 and the second quarter of 2024. Net interest and dividend income increased $4.5 million, and provision for credit losses decreased $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the like 2024 quarter. Income before taxes was negatively impacted by a $229,000 decrease in noninterest income and a $5.5 million increase in noninterest expense. The noninterest expense increase of $5.5 million is primarily due to a $3.5 million increase in salary and employee benefits expense, a $578,000 increase in occupancy, furniture and equipment, a $508,000 increase in computer and data processing, a $448,000 increase in amortization of core deposit intangibles, and a $332,000 increase in other expenses, which were primarily driven by acquisition related costs. Our net income was $21.8 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2025, compared to net income of $21.9 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. The Bank remains well positioned to navigate uncertain macroeconomics. We have proactively addressed interest rate risk, maintained disciplined expense management, and ensured robust daily liquidity oversight. In addition, our liquidity metrics remain solid, and our short-duration securities portfolio provides flexibility for near-term funding requirements.
Current wording
Our income before taxes was $13.1 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $29.9 million third quarter of 2024. Net interest and dividend income increased $22.2 million, and provision for credit losses increased $17.7 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to the like 2024 quarter. Income before taxes was also affected by a $2.5 million increase in noninterest income and a $23.9 million increase in noninterest expense. The noninterest expense increase of $23.9 million is primarily due to a $15.0 million increase in salary and employee benefits expense primarily attributable to $8.4 million of change in control, retention, and severance payouts related to the Bancorp Financial acquisition, a $1.1 million increase in occupancy, furniture and equipment, a $1.6 million increase in computer and data processing, a $681,000 increase in amortization of core deposit intangibles, a $2.0 million increase in consulting & management fees, and a $2.4 million increase in other expenses, which were all primarily driven by Bancorp Financial acquisition related costs. Total acquisition costs of $11.8 million, excluding net gains on branch sales were recorded as a result of the Bancorp Financial acquisition during the three months ended September 30, 2025. In addition, our five branch purchase from FRME in December 2024 also drove the increase in noninterest expenses for the year over year periods. Our net income was $9.9 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2025, compared to net income of $23.0 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024. The Bank remains well positioned to navigate uncertain macroeconomics. We have proactively addressed interest rate risk, maintained disciplined expense management, and ensured robust daily liquidity oversight.

Previous wording
Net interest and dividend income was $64.2 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $59.7 million in the second quarter of 2024. The $4.5 million increase was driven by a decrease in other short-term borrowings in the second quarter of 2025, compared to the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to these borrowings being completely paid down in the first quarter of 2025, as well as a $2.0 million increase in interest and dividend income due to increased security yields. A net increase of $836,000 on deposit interest expense in the second quarter of 2025 negatively impacted net interest and dividend income compared to the second quarter of 2024.
Current wording
Net interest and dividend income was $82.8 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $60.6 million in the third quarter of 2024. The $22.2 million increase was driven by a $28.0 million increase in interest and dividend income due to the acquisition of Bancorp Financial as well as organic loan growth. A net increase of $5.8 million in interest expense in the third quarter of 2025 negatively impacted net interest and dividend income compared to the third quarter of 2024, driven by the higher cost deposits and increased borrowing balances assumed with the Bancorp Financial acquisition.
Previous wording
Our income before taxes was $55.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $57.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease in pretax income was primarily due to an $11.8 million increase in noninterest expense and a $529,000 decrease in noninterest income. These changes were partially offset by a $7.7 million increase in net interest and dividend income and a $2.4 million decrease in provision for credit losses. Our net income was $41.7 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net income of $43.2 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, for the same period of 2024.
Current wording
Our income before taxes was $68.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $87.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This decrease in pretax income was primarily due to a $35.7 million increase in noninterest expense and a $15.3 million increase in provision for credit losses, which were both driven by the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. These changes were partially offset by a $29.9 million increase in net interest and dividend income, a $2.0 million increase in noninterest income, and a $4.5 million decrease in provision for income taxes. Our net income was $51.5 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income of $66.2 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, for the same period of 2024.
Previous wording
Net interest and dividend income was $127.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $119.5 million for the same period of 2024. The $7.7 million increase was primarily driven by a decrease in interest expense in the first six months of 2025, compared to the first six months of 2024, driven by a reduction in other short-term borrowings expense as the remainder of these borrowings were paid off in the first quarter of 2025. Also contributing to the increase in net interest and dividend income was a $2.4 million increase in securities related income due to the year over year increase in yield in the securities portfolio. Lower interest expenses were partially offset by the effect of market interest rates on our loan portfolio, which contributed a $1.2 million decrease in loan related income.
Current wording
Net interest and dividend income was $209.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $180.1 million for the same period of 2024. The $29.9 million increase was primarily driven by an increase in loan related income of $25.5 million due to the loan portfolio acquired with Bancorp Financial as well as a $3.1 million increase in securities related income due to the year over year higher yielding securities portfolio. Partially offsetting the increase in interest and dividend income was an increase in interest expense in the first nine months of 2025, compared to the first nine months of 2024, driven by higher cost of deposits and increased borrowing balances assumed with the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. However, this increase in interest expense was nominal, due to a reduction in average balances of short-term borrowings in the year over year period, primarily stemming from the inflow of cash received related to the FRME five branch purchase in December 2024.
Previous wording
The decreased yield of two basis points on interest earning assets compared to the linked period was primarily driven by a lower yield on FHLBC and FRBC Stock due to less capital stock dividends received during the second quarter of 2025 and repricing within the loan portfolio. Changes in the market interest rate environment impact earning assets at varying intervals depending on the repricing timeline of loans, as well as the securities maturity, paydown and purchase activities.
Current wording
The increased yield of 66 basis points on interest earning assets compared to the linked period was primarily driven by higher interest rate consumer credits and related accretion on the loan portfolio acquired from Bancorp Financial, as the average yield on the acquired portfolio prior to purchase accounting accretion was 8.60%. Changes in the market interest rate environment impact earning assets at varying intervals depending on the repricing timeline of loans, as well as the securities maturity, paydown and purchase activities.
Previous wording
The year over year increase of one basis point on interest earning assets was primarily driven by maturities in our securities portfolio with many older and lower yielding securities maturing and being replaced with higher yielding investments while maintaining the shorter duration portfolio composition. Average balances of securities available for sale increased $10.7 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the prior year like quarter, with a corresponding increase to the tax equivalent yield on the securities available for sale portfolio of 41 basis points year over year primarily due to variable security rate resets and new higher yielding securities. Average balances of loans and loans held for sale increased $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the prior year like quarter, while the tax equivalent yield on loans and loans held for sale decreased four basis points.
Current wording
The year over year increase of 51 basis points on interest earning assets was primarily driven by higher yielding consumer credits and related accretion on the Bancorp Financial portfolio acquired, as well as planned turnover in our securities portfolio with many older and lower yielding securities maturing and being replaced with higher yielding investments while maintaining the shorter duration portfolio composition. Average balances of loans and loans held for sale increased $1.25 billion in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the prior year like quarter, with a corresponding increase to the tax equivalent yield on the loan portfolio of 47 basis points year over year due to the Bancorp Financial acquisition and organic growth. Average balances of securities available for sale decreased $8.0 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the prior year like quarter, but showed an increase to the tax equivalent yield on the securities available for sale portfolio of 25 basis points year over year primarily due to variable security rate resets and run-off of lower yielding investments.
Previous wording
Average balances of interest bearing deposit accounts have increased slightly since the first quarter of 2025 through the second quarter of 2025, from $3.10 billion to $3.12 billion, as NOW and money market account average balances increased, while savings and time deposit accounts decreased. We have continued to control the cost of funds over the periods reflected by monitoring market activity as well as allowing previous exception-priced deposits to runoff naturally, which resulted in only a two basis point increase in the cost of interest bearing deposits, from 128 basis points for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, to 130 basis points for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. A 17-basis point increase in money market accounts for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, drove a significant portion of the increase from the prior linked quarter, with a 10-basis point decrease in the cost of time deposits partially offsetting the overall change in the cost of deposits. The cost of interest bearing deposits decreased three basis points for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, from 133 basis points for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. A 67-basis point decrease in the cost of time deposit accounts drove a significant portion of the overall decrease from the prior year like quarter.
Current wording
Average balances of interest bearing deposit accounts have increased significantly since the second quarter of 2025 through the third quarter of 2025, from $3.12 billion to $4.15 billion, as all average interest bearing deposit account categories increased as a result of the Bancorp Financial acquisition. The Bancorp Financial acquisition drove the increase in interest bearing deposit expenses of $9.8 million compared to the prior linked quarter, which increased the cost of interest bearing deposits from 130 basis points for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, to 191 basis points for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. We will continue to control the cost of funds by monitoring market activity as well as allowing previous exception-priced deposits and the brokered CDs acquired from Bancorp Financial to runoff naturally. A 66 basis point increase in savings accounts and a 61 basis point increase in time deposits for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, drove a significant portion of the increase from the prior linked quarter, as a majority of the accounts assumed from Bancorp Financial were within these deposit categories. The cost of interest bearing deposits increased 43 basis points for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, from 148 basis points for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. A 20 basis point increase in the cost of money market accounts and a 70 basis point increase in savings accounts drove a significant portion of the overall increase from the prior year like quarter.
Previous wording
Borrowing costs decreased slightly in the second quarter of 2025, compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to the $1.4 million decrease in average other short-term borrowings stemming from a decrease in average daily FHLB advances over the prior linked quarter as the remainder of this borrowing was already paid down early in the first quarter of 2025. The decrease of $242.9 million year over year of average FHLB advances was based on daily liquidity needs and was the primary driver of the $3.3 million decrease to interest expense on other short-term borrowings. Subordinated and junior subordinated debt interest expense were essentially flat over each of the periods presented.
Current wording
Borrowing costs increased in the third quarter of 2025, compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase is primarily due to the $26.0 million increase in average other short-term borrowings, which are overnight FHLB advances based on daily liquidity needs, over the prior linked quarter as well as $14.8 million in notes payable and other borrowings due to long term FHLB advances assumed from Bancorp Financial. The decrease of $279.5 million year over year of average FHLB advances was based on daily liquidity needs due to the changes in the funding mix as a result of recent acquisitions and was the primary driver of the $3.9 million decrease to interest expense on other short-term borrowings. Subordinated and junior subordinated debt interest expense were essentially flat over each of the periods presented.
Previous wording
Our net interest margin, for both GAAP and TE presentations, showed nominal declines over the prior linked quarter periods, but healthy growth over the prior year like quarter presented above. Our net interest margin (GAAP) decreased two basis points to 4.83% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 4.85% for the first quarter of 2025, but increased 23 basis points compared to 4.60% for the second quarter of 2024. Our net interest margin (TE) decreased three basis points to 4.85% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 4.88% for the first quarter of 2025, but increased 22 basis points compared to 4.63% for the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in net interest margin for the second quarter of 2025, compared to the prior linked quarter, was driven by market interest rates on securities and one more day in the period with larger interest earning asset balances. The net interest margin increased in the second quarter of 2025, compared to the prior year like quarter, primarily due to higher security yields as well as the decrease in average other short-term borrowings and the corresponding reduction in interest expense. See the discussion entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” above, and the tables beginning on page 51 that provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent.
Current wording
Our net interest margin, for both GAAP and tax equivalent (“TE”) presentations, showed noticeable growth over the prior linked quarter period and over the prior year like quarter presented above. Our net interest margin (GAAP) increased 20 basis points to 5.03% for the third quarter of 2025, compared to 4.83% for the second quarter of 2025, and increased 41 basis points compared to 4.62% for the third quarter of 2024. Our net interest margin (TE) increased 20 basis points to 5.05% for the third quarter of 2025, compared to 4.85% for the second quarter of 2025, and increased 41 basis points compared to 4.64% for the third quarter of 2024. The increase in net interest margin for the third quarter of 2025, compared to the prior linked quarter, was driven by the Bancorp Financial acquisition, market interest rates, and one more day in the period with larger interest earning asset balances. The net interest margin increased in the third quarter of 2025, compared to the prior year like quarter, primarily due to the Bancorp Financial acquisition, higher security yields, and the decrease in average other short-term borrowings and the corresponding reduction in interest expense. See the discussion entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” above, and the tables beginning on page 54 that provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent.
Previous wording
The year over year increase of five basis points on interest earning assets was driven by increased yields on our securities portfolio. The securities portfolio was primarily impacted by maturities and paydowns of lower yielding assets and timely purchase of higher yielding securities as we work to increase the weighted average yield in the portfolio while maintaining short duration. Average securities available-for-sale increased $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, due to strategic purchases of securities. Due to market interest rate increases year over year, securities available-for-sale interest income yields were higher in the six months ended June 30, 2025, leading to an increase in securities income to $22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $19.9 million for the like 2024 period. Average loans, including loans held for sale, decreased $29.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. Flat loan yields and lower average balances resulted in $123.6 million of loan and dividend interest income in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $124.9 million in the like 2024 period.
Current wording
The year over year increase of 24 basis points on interest earning assets was driven by increased yields on our loans and securities portfolios. Average loans, including loans held for sale, increased $402.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, due to the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. The large increase in average loans resulted in $215.0 million of loan interest income in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $189.4 million in the like 2024 period. The acquired portfolio provided higher yielding consumer loans helping to increase our overall loan portfolio yield. The securities portfolio was primarily impacted by maturities and paydowns of lower yielding assets and timely purchase of higher yielding securities as we work to increase the weighted average yield in the portfolio while maintaining short duration. Average securities available-for-sale increased $300,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared the like 2024 period. Over the same period, market interest rates increased leading to an increase in securities income of $3.1 million to $33.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $30.7 million for the like 2024 period.
Previous wording
Average balances of interest bearing deposit accounts have increased significantly since June 30, 2024, through the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $2.78 billion to $3.11 billion driven by the FRME acquisition, with these increases reflected in all categories other than savings accounts. We have continued to control the cost of funds over the periods reflected, with the rate of overall interest bearing deposits increasing by four basis points to 129 basis points from 125 basis points as of June 30, 2024. A 20-basis point increase in the cost of money market funds as of June 30, 2025, compared to June 30, 2024, was due to select deposit account exception pricing and drove a significant portion of the overall increase. Also contributing to the overall increase was an 11-basis point increase in savings accounts as interest paid on savings accounts increased with the goal of remaining competitive to peer offerings, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, while the average balance decreased. Interest expense paid on time deposits partially offset the growth in cost of deposits year over year, as the cost of average time deposits decreased 45 basis points to 265 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 310 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Current wording
Average balances of interest bearing deposit accounts have increased significantly since September 30, 2024, through the nine months ended September 30, 2025, from $2.79 billion to $3.46 billion driven by the Bancorp Financial and FRME acquisitions, with these increases reflected in all deposit categories. The Bancorp Financial acquisition contributed to the increase in interest bearing deposit expense of $12.0 million compared to the prior year like period, which increased the cost of interest bearing deposits from 133 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, to 154 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. A 21 basis point increase in the cost of money market funds and a 34 basis point increase in savings accounts as of September 30, 2025, compared to September 30, 2024, drove a significant portion of the increase from the prior year period, as a majority of the deposit accounts assumed in the Bancorp Financial acquisition were within these deposit categories. Interest expense paid on time deposits partially offset the growth in cost of deposits year over year, as the cost of average time deposits decreased 28 basis points to 292 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 320 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous wording
Our borrowing interest expense was controlled over the past twelve months due to lower FHLB advance volumes as the remaining advances were paid off in the first quarter of 2025. This resulted in an average balance decrease of $286.8 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, with an accompanying decrease of $7.9 million of interest expense. Subordinated and junior subordinated debt interest expense remained flat over the periods presented.
Current wording
Our borrowing interest expense was controlled over the past twelve months due to lower outstanding short-term FHLB advances compared to the prior year like period. This resulted in an average balance decrease of $284.3 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, with an accompanying decrease of $11.8 million of interest expense. However, our note payable average balance increased by $5.0 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as we assumed long-term FHLB advances with the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. Subordinated and junior subordinated debt interest expense remained flat over the periods presented.

Our net interest margin (GAAP) increased 26 basis points to 4.84% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 4.58% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Our net interest margin (TE) increased 27 basis points to 4.87% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 4.60% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in the current period, compared to the prior year like period, is primarily due to lower interest expense related to the lower average balances and interest on other short-term borrowings and increased yields on securities.
Current wording
Our net interest margin (GAAP) increased 32 basis points to 4.91% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 4.59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Our net interest margin (TE) increased 32 basis points to 4.94% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 4.62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in the current period, compared to the prior year like period, is primarily due to lower interest expense related to the lower average balances and interest on other short-term borrowings and increased yields on loans and securities.

Previous wording
The decrease in noninterest income of $229,000 in the second quarter of 2025, compared to the second quarter of 2024, is primarily due to no death benefits realized on BOLI in 2025, compared to an $893,000 death benefit recorded in the second quarter of 2024. Also contributing to the reduction in noninterest income during the quarter was a $233,000 decrease in residential mortgage banking revenue mainly due to a $293,000 decrease in MSRs mark to market valuations. Partially offsetting the decrease in noninterest income from the prior year like quarter was a $324,000 increase in wealth management income primarily due to growth in advisory fees and estate fees, a $280,000 increase in service charges on deposits, and a $284,000 increase in other income due to growth in commercial swap fee income, as well as a real estate tax refund related to a prior year tax assessment received in the second quarter of 2025 from an OREO property.
Current wording
The increase in noninterest income of $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to the third quarter of 2024, is primarily due to a $728,000 increase in wealth management income from growth in advisory and estate fees, a $315,000 increase in the cash surrender value of BOLI due to changes in market interest rates, and a $430,000 death benefit realized on BOLI recorded in the third quarter of 2025. Also contributing to the increase in noninterest income during the quarter was a $699,000 increase in residential mortgage banking revenue mainly due to a $575,000 increase in MSRs mark to market valuations.
Previous wording
Noninterest income decreased $529,000, or 2.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by a $732,000 decrease in mortgage banking revenue, comprised primarily of a $957,000 increase in MSRs mark to market losses and partially offset by a $232,000 increase in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans. In addition, the current six month period decreased due to a $804,000 decrease in the cash surrender value of BOLI due to market interest rate changes on COLI investments, and no death benefits were realized on BOLI in the second quarter of 2025, compared to an $893,000 death benefit realized on BOLI in the prior linked period. Partially offsetting these decreases was an $852,000 increase in wealth management income, a $584,000 increase in service charges on deposits, a $175,000 increase in card related income, and a $290,000 increase in other income.
Current wording
Noninterest income increased $2.0 million, or 6.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by a $1.6 million increase in wealth management income from growth in advisory and estate fees, an $858,000 increase in service charges on deposits, a $325,000 increase in card related income, and a $234,000 increase in other income. Partially offsetting these increases was a $489,000 decrease in the cash surrender value of BOLI due to market interest rate changes on COLI investments, and a $475,000 decrease in death benefits realized on BOLI.
Previous wording
The year over year increase in noninterest expense is primarily attributable to a $3.5 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, primarily due to increases in annual base salary rates, officers’ incentives, and restricted stock units expense in the second quarter of 2025. Also contributing to the increase was a $578,000 increase in occupancy, furniture and equipment, a $508,000 increase in computer and data processing expenses, a $448,000 increase in core deposit intangible, and a $332,000 increase in other expense primarily due to the effect of the FRME branches purchased in December 2024 as well as acquisition-related costs associated with our merger with Bancorp Financial. Partially offsetting the year over year increase was a $270,000 decrease in consulting & management fees, as the prior year included consulting costs for a compliance item.
Current wording
The year over year increase in noninterest expense is primarily attributable to a $15.0 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, primarily due to $8.4 million of change in control, retention, and severance payouts related to the Bancorp Financial acquisition as well as increases in annual base salary rates, officers’ incentives, restricted stock expense, and increased workforce in the third quarter of 2025. Also contributing to the increase was a $1.1 million increase in occupancy, furniture and equipment, a $1.6 million increase in computer and data processing expenses, a $681,000 increase in core deposit intangible, a $2.0 million increase in consulting & management fees, and a $2.4 million increase in other expense primarily due to the effect of the First Merchants branches purchased in December 2024 as well as costs associated with our acquisition of Bancorp Financial.
Previous wording
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025, increased $11.8 million, or 15.5%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to a $6.2 million increase in salaries and employee benefits due to forty additional full-time equivalent employees in 2025 related to the FRME branch transaction in December 2024, higher annual base salary rates, restricted stock expense, and deferred employee compensation due to market interest rate changes. Occupancy, furniture and equipment increased $1.2 million and the amortization of core deposit intangibles increased $905,000, both of which were primarily due to the FRME transaction . Computer and data processing increased $601,000, legal fees increased $396,000, and other expense increased $384,000 due to Bancorp Financial acquisition-related costs.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law. The OBBBA extends or makes permanent a number of provisions originally enacted in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and introduces new items affecting both individuals and businesses. Topic 740, Income Taxes, of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification requires the effects of newly enacted tax law to be recognized in the period of enactment. Because enactment occurred after the quarter-end date of June 30, 2025, we are evaluating OBBBA’s impact on our deferred tax assets and liabilities, effective tax rate, and tax-related processes (e.g., payroll reporting for qualifying wage items). Based on preliminary analysis, we do not currently expect the OBBBA to have a material impact on our 2025 estimated annual effective tax rate or on our consolidated financial statements, but our evaluation is ongoing.

Current wording
Loan charge-offs, net of recoveries, for the third quarter of 2025, prior linked quarter and year over year quarter are shown in the following table:
Previous wording
Net charge offs, reported in the above table, reflect continuing management attention to credit quality and remediation efforts. The net charge offs for the second quarter of 2025 were primarily due to a $1.1 million charge off on a large commercial loan. We have continued our conservative loan valuations and aggressive recovery efforts on prior charge-offs.
Current wording
Net charge offs, reported in the above table, reflect continuing management attention to credit quality and remediation efforts. Increased charge off rates from previous quarters are due to the addition of powersport loans. Powersport loans are measured for asset quality at origination based on FICO scores, then based on past due status through the life of the loan, and charge off occurs once a loan is past due 120 days. The gross charge offs for the third quarter of 2025 were primarily due to powersport loans of $3.7 million and $848,000 on two lease relationships. The increase to net charge offs in powersport and other are primarily related to loans identified as PCD at the acquisition date. We have continued our conservative loan valuations and aggressive recovery efforts on prior charge-offs.

Previous wording
Total classified loans increased $5.6 million and classified assets decreased $9.8 million as of June 30, 2025, from December 31, 2024, respectively. The increase in classified loans since December 31, 2024, is due to additions to classified loans of $36.5 million, offset by outflows of $30.9 million which consisted of $11.9 million of loans paid off, $6.6 million of classified loans upgraded, $5.9 million of principal reductions through payments and partial charge offs, $1.5 million of loans charged off, and $5.0 million transferred into OREO. Classified assets decreased primarily due to the OREO outflows of $19.5 million on four OREO sales during the first six months of 2025. The $25.0 million decrease in classified assets compared to June 30, 2024, is primarily due to a classified loan decrease of $24.8 million. Classified loans since June 30, 2024, had outflows of $114.4 million which consisted of $41.9 million of loans paid off, $33.6 million of classified loans upgraded, $1.6 million of loans charged off, $18.8 million of net principal reductions and partial charge offs, and $19.2 million transferred to OREO. The outflows are offset by additions of $89.6 million of loans from June 30, 2024. Management monitors a ratio of classified assets to the sum of Bank Tier 1 capital and the ACL on loans as another measure of overall change in loan related asset quality, which is referred to as the “classified assets ratio.” The classified assets ratio was 14.91% for the period ended June 30, 2025, compared to 17.45% as of December 31, 2024, and 18.98% as of June 30, 2024.
Current wording
Total classified loans increased $42.3 million and $21.4 million as of September 30, 2025, from December 31, 2024, and September 30, 2025, respectively. The increase in classified loans since December 31, 2024, is due to additions to classified loans of $99.4 million, offset by outflows of $57.1 million which consisted of $26.0 million of loans paid off, $15.5 million of classified loans upgraded, $7.1 million of principal reductions through payments and partial charge offs, $2.5 million of loans charged off, $5.0 million transferred into OREO, and $1.0 million repossessed. Classified assets increased primarily due to the increases to classified loans and is offset by net OREO outflows of $15.2 million, which was driven on four OREO sales during the first nine months of 2025. The $21.7 million increase in classified assets compared to September 30, 2024, is primarily due to a classified loan increase of $21.4 million. Classified loans since September 30, 2024, had outflows of $95.3 million which consisted of $35.4 million of loans paid off, $21.6 million of classified loans upgraded, $2.5 million of loans charged off, $17.5 million of net principal reductions and partial charge offs, and $18.0 million transferred to OREO. The outflows are offset by additions of $116.7 million of loans from September 30, 2024. Management monitors a ratio of classified assets to the sum of Bank Tier 1 capital and the ACL on loans as another measure of overall change in loan related asset quality, which is referred to as the “classified assets ratio.” The classified assets ratio was 16.55% for the period ended September 30, 2025, compared to 17.45% as of December 31, 2024, and 17.71% as of September 30, 2024.
Previous wording
At June 30, 2025, our ACL on loans totaled $43.0 million, and our ACL on unfunded commitments, included in other liabilities, totaled $2.3 million. In the second quarter of 2025, we recorded provision expense on loans of $2.2 million, primarily due to credit migration to special mention or worse in commercial and commercial real estate segments, which led to higher loss rates in the pooled loan segments. One large commercial charge off in the amount of $1.1 million makes up the majority of second quarter total. This amount was already reserved for as of March 31, 2025, as a specific allocation. Further, we recorded a $277,000 provision on unfunded commitments, primarily due to an adjustment of historical benchmark assumptions, such as funding rates and the period used to forecast those rates, within the ACL calculation. These adjustments resulted in a $2.5 million net impact to the provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2025.
Current wording
At September 30, 2025, our ACL on loans totaled $75.0 million, and our ACL on unfunded commitments, included in other liabilities, totaled $2.3 million. In relation to the acquisition, we recorded a Day One purchase accounting credit mark of $17.5 million and a Day Two non-PCD provision expense of $13.2 million based on our assessment of the acquired loans. In the third quarter of 2025, we recorded provision expense on loans of $19.7 million, primarily due to the Day Two non-PCD provision expense and a $6.5 million provision for credit losses on loans. The provision on credits losses were due to the inclusion of the powersport loan portfolio and related current period charge-offs, as well as two large downgrades to standards in commercial that has resulted in higher pooled loss rates. We expect a run rate of approximately $3.0 million in net charge offs each quarter from our acquisition of Bancorp Financial. Further, we recorded a $38,000 provision on unfunded commitments, primarily due to an adjustment of historical benchmark assumptions, such as funding rates and the period used to forecast those rates, within the ACL calculation. These adjustments resulted in a $6.5 million net impact to the provision for credit losses for the third quarter of 2025.
Previous wording
Management estimates the amount of provision required on a quarterly basis and records the appropriate provision expense, or release of expense, to maintain an adequate reserve for all potential and estimated credit losses on loans, leases and unfunded commitments. The ACL on loans totaled $43.0 million as of June 30, 2025, $43.6 million as of December 31, 2024, and $42.3 million as of June 30, 2024. Our ACL on loans to total loans was 1.08% as of June 30, 2025, 1.10% as of December 31, 2024, and 1.06% as of June 30, 2024. See Item 7 –* Critical Accounting Estimates*in the Management Discussion and Analysis in our 2024 Annual Report in Form 10-K for discussion of our ACL methodology on loans. Allocations of the ACL may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in our judgment, should be charged-off.
