NOTE 3 –ACQUISITION AND DIVESTITURE ACTIVITY

Acquisition

Bremer Financial Corporation

On May 1, 2025, Old National completed its acquisition of Bremer Financial Corporation (“Bremer”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Bremer Bank, National Association. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, each outstanding share of Bremer common stock was converted into the right to receive (i) $26.22 in cash without interest, (ii)4.182 shares of Old National common stock and (iii) cash in lieu of fractional shares.

In addition, on November 25, 2024, Old National entered into a forward sale agreement with Citibank, N.A. (the “Forward Purchaser”) to issue 19,047,619 shares of Old National common stock for an aggregate offering amount of $400.0 million and entered into an underwriting agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as representative for the underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”) and as forward seller (the “Forward Seller”), and the Forward Purchaser. The Underwriters were also granted a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 2,857,143 shares of Old National common stock. On November 25, 2024, the Underwriters exercised this option in full, upon which Old National entered into an additional forward sale agreement to issue 2,857,143 shares of Old National common stock. Old National physically settled in full the forward sale agreements on May 23, 2025 by delivering 21,904,762 shares of Old National common stock to the Forward Purchaser. Old National received net proceeds from such sale of shares of Old National common stock and full physical settlement of the forward sale agreements of $443.2 million.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Company’s acquisition of Bremer, both intangible and tangible, were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the merger date and have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The following table presents the preliminary valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the fair value of consideration as of the merger date and also includes certain reclassifications to conform to the current presentation in the Consolidated Balance Sheet:

Goodwill related to this merger willnot be deductible for tax purposes.

Other intangible assets acquired included core deposit intangibles and customer relationship intangibles. The estimated fair value of the core deposit intangible was $397.1 million and is being amortized over an estimated useful life of 10 years. The estimated fair value of the customer relationship intangibles was $43.0 million and is being amortized over an estimated useful life of 12 years.

The fair value of purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) assets was $1.9 billion on the date of merger. The gross contractual amounts receivable relating to the PCD assets was $2.1 billion. Old National estimates, on the date of the merger, that $103.5 million of the contractual cash flows specific to the PCD assets will not be collected.

Merger-related costs associated with the Bremer acquisition have been expensed for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 totaling $6.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and additional merger-related and integration costs will be expensed in future periods as incurred.

As a result of the acquisition, Old National assumed sponsorship of Bremer’s defined benefit pension plan under which both plan participation and benefit accruals were subsequently frozen and the plan was then terminated. The net pension asset associated with Bremer’s defined benefit pension plan is recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Pension costs were not material in the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The Company’s results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 include the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of Bremer subsequent to the acquisition on May 1, 2025. Due to the integration of certain Bremer systems and processes since the acquisition date, the Company has determined that it is impractical to report the amounts of revenue and income before income taxes of legacy Bremer subsequent to the acquisition.
