Current report
On July 1, 2025, we completed our previously announced acquisition of Bancorp Financial, Inc. (“Bancorp Financial”), pursuant to the agreement and plan of merger dated February 24, 2025. At the effective time of the acquisition, Bancorp Financial merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation. Immediately following the merger, Evergreen Bank Group (“Evergreen”), an Illinois-chartered banking corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Bancorp Financial, merged with and into Old Second National Bank, with the Bank continuing as the surviving bank. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each share of Bancorp Financial common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time was converted into the right to receive 2.5814 shares of Old Second common stock and $15.93 in cash, without interest, with cash paid in lieu of any fractional shares.
Current report
As of July 1, 2025, Bancorp Financial had approximately $1.43 billion of total assets, $1.20 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
Partially offsetting the increase in noninterest income for 2025, compared to 2024, was lower mortgage banking earnings of $701,000. The decrease in mortgage banking revenue was driven by mark to market losses of $1.9 million in 2025, compared to mark to market losses of $723,000 recorded in 2024, primarily due to change in market interest rates and prepayment speeds. Also offsetting the increase in noninterest income in 2025, compared to 2024, was a $422,000 decrease in the cash surrender value of BOLI due to changes in market interest rates on Corporate-Owned Life Insurance (“COLI”) investments and a $475,000 reduction in death benefit proceeds realized on BOLI in 2025 compared to 2024.

Current report
Our total assets were $6.90 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase of $1.25 billion, or 22.2%, from December 31, 2024. Our total cash and cash equivalents increased $24.7 million, driven by cash received from securities activity and the increase in other short term borrowings, as well as net cash received with the Bancorp Financial acquisition.
Current report
Our loans increased by $1.27 billion, or 31.9%, to $5.25 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 2024. This increase is primarily due to the $1.20 billion of loans acquired in our acquisition of Bancorp Financial and $76.1 million of net organic loan growth.
Current report
Our total loans were $5.25 billion as of December 31, 2025, an increase of $1.27 billion from $3.98 billion as of December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to the $1.20 billion portfolio acquired from Bancorp Financial, which significantly expanded our consumer lending and added the powersport loan segment. Excluding the acquisition, the Bank achieved organic loan growth, net of paydowns, of $76.1 million from 2024. The largest organic loan increases, net originations, were in leases for $56.5 million and commercial real estate – investor for $27.2 million. Partially offsetting these organic increases, we experienced net reductions in construction of $32.4 million and multifamily of $40.8 million. We recorded total loan originations, excluding renewals, of $1.36 billion in 2025.

Current report
We withheld 84,841 shares for $1.5 million to satisfy RSU vesting tax withholding obligations in 2025, and repurchased 326,854 shares for $5.9 million under our stock repurchase program, which increased treasury stock. This increase was offset by issuance of 99,575 shares for RSU vestings, which totaled $1.8 million. The net impact was an increase to treasury stock of 312,120 shares, totaling $5.6 million as of December 31, 2025. The net increase in treasury stock decreased stockholders’ equity, and also increased earnings per share by decreasing the number of shares outstanding.
Current report
The Company, on a consolidated basis, exceeded the applicable minimum regulatory capital requirements (including the capital conservation buffer, as applicable) at December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. The Bank exceeded the ‘well capitalized’ thresholds under the prompt corrective action framework at December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Previous report
Our total noninterest income decreased $8.9 million, or 20.7%, to $34.2 million for 2023, compared to $43.1 million for 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower mortgage banking earnings of $5.3 million, driven by mark to market losses on MSRs of $1.4 million in 2023, compared to mark to market gains on MSRs of $3.2 million recorded in 2022, primarily due to changes in market interest rates and prepayment speeds in 2023. Also contributing to the lower mortgage banking earnings in 2023 was a decrease of $545,000 related to net gains on sales of mortgage loans. In addition, total noninterest income decreased in 2023, compared to 2022, due to net securities losses of $4.1 million in 2023, compared to net securities losses of $944,000 in 2022, reflecting strategic sales in 2023 given the increasing rate environment resulting in downward pressure on the bond market during the year, a $938,000, or 8.5%, decrease in card-related income in 2023, compared to 2022, and a $1.0 million decrease in other income, primarily due to a $743,000 gain on a Visa credit card portfolio sale and a $180,000 gain on the sale of a land trust portfolio, both recorded in the third quarter of 2022. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in service charges on deposits of $255,000 and a $1.4 million increase in the cash surrender value of BOLI due to market interest rate changes. We had no BOLI death benefit proceeds in 2023 or 2022.
Previous report
Partially offsetting these increases to noninterest expense was a $2.1 million, or 12.4%, decrease in other expense primarily due to a $1.2 million litigation expense recorded in 2023 related to an overdraft case stemming from a prior year overdraft compliance claim, which has since been settled at the accrual total recorded in 2023.
Previous report
Our total noninterest expense decreased by $6.0 million, or 4.0%, in 2023 compared to 2022. The decrease was comprised of a $555,000, or 3.7%, decrease in occupancy, furniture and equipment expense primarily due to higher equipment and maintenance costs incurred in 2022, and an $8.5 million, or 53.9%, decrease in computer and data processing expense, both primarily due to merger-related costs incurred related to our acquisition of West Suburban in 2021 as systems conversion was performed in April 2022. In addition, 2023 reflected a $1.6 million, or 43.3%, decrease in net teller & bill paying services, primarily due to costs incurred in 2022 for new payment platforms related to our acquisition of West Suburban. Partially offsetting these decreases to noninterest expense was a $2.0 million, or 2.3%, increase in salaries and employee benefits. Our number of full-time equivalent employees was 834 as of December 31, 2023, compared to 819 as of December 31, 2022. Also partially offsetting the decrease in noninterest expense in 2023, as compared to 2022, was a $304,000, or 12.7%, increase in FDIC insurance, a $132,000, or 22.4%, increase in advertising expense for updated branding, a $775,000, or 17.8%, increase in card related expense, a $269,000 increase in other real estate owned expense due to six additions and nine disposals throughout 2023, and a $1.4 million increase in other expense primarily due to a $1.2 million litigation expense recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023 for an overdraft fee compliance claim.

Our total assets were $5.65 billion at December 31, 2024, a decrease of $73.4 million, or 1.3%, from December 31, 2023. Our total cash and cash equivalents decreased $816,000, driven by a decrease in cash and due from banks, primarily to pay down short-term borrowings.
Previous report
Our loans decreased by $61.6 million, or 1.5%, to $3.98 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 2023. This decrease is primarily due to declines in commercial, commercial real estate-owner occupied and multifamily portfolios.

Previous report
Our total loans were $3.98 billion as of December 31, 2024, a decrease of $61.6 million from $4.04 billion as of December 31, 2023. This decrease was due to increased transfers into OREO and large payoffs. The largest decreases, net originations, were in commercial real estate – owner occupied for $113.3 million, in multifamily for $50.4 million, and in commercial for $41.2 million. Partially offsetting these declines, we experienced organic loan growth primarily in our leases and commercial real estate – investor loan portfolios. We recorded total loan originations, excluding renewals, of $1.03 billion in 2024, but we also experienced accelerated paydowns in 2024 due to higher levels of customer liquidity.

In December 2016, we completed the retirement of $45.0 million of subordinated debt with the proceeds of a $45.0 million senior notes issuance and cash on hand. The senior notes matured in ten years, and terms included interest payable semiannually at 5.75% for five years. On June 30, 2023, we redeemed all of the $45.0 million senior notes.

In 2024, we recorded net income of $85.3 million, or $1.87 per fully diluted share, compared to $91.7 million, or $2.02 per fully diluted share, in 2023, and $67.4 million, or $1.49 per fully diluted share, in 2022. Our basic earnings per share for the periods presented were $1.90 in 2024, $2.05 in 2023 and $1.51 in 2022.
Current wording
In 2025, we recorded net income of $80.3 million, or $1.62 per fully diluted share, compared to $85.3 million, or $1.87 per fully diluted share, in 2024, and $91.7 million, or $2.02 per fully diluted share, in 2023. Our basic earnings per share for the periods presented were $1.64 in 2025, $1.90 in 2024 and $2.05 in 2023.
Previous wording
Our 2024 net income, as compared to the prior year, decreased primarily as a result of deposit interest expense outpacing our increased interest income throughout much of 2024, as well as additional costs incurred with our FRME branch transaction. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes transaction-related costs, litigation expense, and net gains on branch sales was $85.9 million in 2024. See the discussion entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 51 and the table below, which provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure and related items, to the most comparable GAAP equivalents.
Current wording
Our 2025 net income, as compared to the prior year, decreased primarily as a result of additional costs incurred with the Bancorp Financial acquisition. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes acquisition-related costs, Day Two provision for credit losses, MSR mark to market (gains)/losses, net securities (gains)/losses, death benefits realized on BOLI, litigation expense, and net gains on branch sales was $102.6 million in 2025. See the discussion entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 48 and the table below, which provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure and related items, to the most comparable GAAP equivalents.
Previous wording
Adjusted net income provides for a comparative analysis of our performance excluding those one-time matters, such as transaction-related costs for our purchase of five FRME branches, litigation expense related to a claim regarding prior years’ overdraft fee compliance, net gains or net losses stemming from branch sales completed to eliminate duplicative geographic locations due to past acquisitions, and the Visa credit card and land trust portfolio sales, which were executed to exit products that were not within our strategic plan.
Current wording
Adjusted net income provides a comparative analysis of our performance excluding those one-time matters, such as transaction-related costs for our acquisition of Bancorp Financial and our purchase of five FRME branches, Day Two provision for credit losses from our acquisition of Bancorp Financial, net securities (gains)/losses, death benefits realized on BOLI, litigation expense related to a claim regarding prior years’ overdraft fee compliance, and net gains or net losses stemming from branch sales completed to eliminate duplicative geographic locations due to past acquisitions.
Previous wording
Net interest and dividend income decreased $10.3 million, or 4.1% for 2024 compared to 2023, due primarily to increased interest expense due to higher market rates on deposits throughout 2024, partially offset by the impact of market interest rates on loans, and lower average balances on FHLBC advances. Average loans, including loans held-for-sale, decreased $13.4 million, or 0.33%, in 2024 compared to 2023. Total interest and dividend income growth in 2024, compared to 2023, resulted in a 31 basis point increase in average rates earned on interest earning assets. Average interest bearing deposits decreased $36.6 million, or 1.3%, for 2024 compared to 2023, while average deposit rates increased 81 basis points over the same period. The increase in deposit rates was primarily due to growth in exception priced deposits and higher rates overall offered to customers, which impacted deposit expense in all interest bearing deposit categories. Average noninterest bearing deposits decreased by $158.7 million, or 8.3%, from 2023 to 2024.
Current wording
Net interest and dividend income increased $51.3 million, or 21.2% for 2025 compared to 2024, due primarily to increased interest and dividend income stemming from our acquisition of Bancorp Financial as well as decreased borrowing costs on the lower average balances on FHLBC advances. Partially offsetting the increase in interest and dividend income from the prior year was an increase in interest expense due to higher deposit costs from the additional deposits assumed with the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. Average loans, including loans held-for-sale, increased $622.3 million, or 15.6%, in 2025 compared to 2024 due to the loan portfolio included in the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. Total interest and dividend income growth in 2025, compared to 2024, resulted in a 32 basis point increase in average rates earned on interest earning assets. Average interest bearing deposits increased $768.2 million, or 27.3%, for 2025 compared to 2024, and average deposit rates increased 22 basis points over the same period. The increase in deposit rates was primarily due to exception priced deposits incurred in the Bancorp Financial acquisition, which we are allowing to run off over time. Average noninterest bearing deposits increased by $1.5 million, or 0.1%, from 2024 to 2025.
Previous wording
We continued to reposition our balance sheet in 2024 to ensure adequate liquidity, reduce asset quality risk, and to offset the rising interest rate risk on our cost of funds. In 2024, our available-for-sale securities portfolio decreased $31.1 million, compared to year-end 2023, due primarily to $304.2 million of paydowns, maturities, and calls and $5.3 million of strategic sales. These decreases in 2024 were partially offset by security purchases of $265.5 million. The unrealized mark to market adjustment on securities was a $68.6 million unrealized loss as of December 31, 2024, compared to an $84.2 million unrealized loss at December 31, 2023, due primarily to changes in market interest rates and the portfolio holdings mix year over year. Average interest bearing liabilities decreased $133.8 million, to $3.21 billion in 2024 from $3.34 billion in 2023. Total average borrowings decreased $97.3 million to $394.7 million compared to $492.0 million in 2023. The decrease in average borrowings was primarily due to a $84.8 million decrease in other short-term borrowings due to a reduction in FHLBC advances throughout 2024. During 2023, we paid off our notes payable and our senior notes, resulting in a decrease in average borrowings of $1.3 million and $22.0 million, respectively.
Current wording
We continued to reposition our balance sheet in 2025 to ensure adequate liquidity, reduce asset quality risk, and to manage interest rate risk on our cost of funds. In 2025, our available-for-sale securities portfolio decreased $71.2 million, compared to year-end 2024, due primarily to $279.6 million of paydowns, maturities, and calls and $7.5 million of strategic sales. These decreases in 2025 were partially offset by security purchases of $191.6 million. The change in activity in 2025, compared to year end 2024, excludes the sale of Bancorp Financial’s $117.6 million available-for-sale securities portfolio shortly after the acquisition closed. The unrealized mark to market adjustment on securities was a $43.1 million unrealized loss as of December 31, 2025, compared to a $68.6 million unrealized loss at December 31, 2024, due primarily to changes in market interest rates and the portfolio holdings mix year over year. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $545.1 million, to $3.75 billion in 2025 from $3.21 billion in 2024. Total average borrowings decreased $223.2 million to $171.5 million compared to $394.7 million in 2024. The decrease in average borrowings was primarily due to a $224.1 million decrease in other short-term borrowings due to a reduction in overnight FHLBC advances throughout 2025.
Previous wording
Management also continued to emphasize credit quality and maintained our capital ratios with continued strong liquidity. In 2024, we experienced a decrease in loans of $61.6 million, or 1.5%, over 2023. Nonperforming assets decreased slightly in 2024 and 2023 relative to total assets, with nonperforming assets of $51.9 million, or 0.92%, of total assets for 2024, compared to $73.9 million, or 1.29% of total assets for 2023, and $34.5 million, or 0.59% of total assets, for 2022. The total dollar decrease in 2024, compared to 2023, was primarily due to a decrease in nonaccrual loans of $38.7 million, partially offset by a $16.5 million increase in OREO. We continue to take steps to control operating expenses and increase noninterest income.
Current wording
Management also continued to emphasize credit quality and maintained our capital ratios with continued strong liquidity. In 2025, we had loan growth of $1.27 billion, or 31.9%, over 2024 primarily due to the acquired loan portfolio of Bancorp Financial. Nonperforming assets relative to total assets decreased slightly in 2025 and 2024, with nonperforming assets of $55.6 million, or 0.81%, of total assets for 2025, compared to $52.4 million, or 0.92% of total assets for 2024, and $73.9 million, or 1.29% of total assets, for 2023. The total dollar increase in 2025, compared to 2024, was primarily due to an increase in nonaccrual loans of $19.1 million and an increase in loans past due 90 days and accruing of $3.4 million, partially offset by a $20.2 million decrease in OREO. We continue to take steps to control operating expenses and increase noninterest income.

Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and, as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. We have identified the determination of the allowance for credit losses and fair value measurements to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments and, as such, could be most subject to revision as new or additional information becomes available or circumstances change, including overall changes in the economic climate and/or market interest rates. Therefore, we consider these policies, discussed below, to be critical accounting estimates and discuss them directly with the Audit Committee of our board of directors.

Previous wording
As a result of management’s modeling, we decreased our ACL on loans to $43.6 million as of December 31, 2024; in addition, we decreased our ACL on unfunded commitments to $1.9 million as of December 31, 2024, included within other liabilities. We recorded provision for credit losses of $12.8 million in 2024, comprised of $13.6 million of provision for credit loss expense on loans, and a $834,000 release of provision on unfunded commitments. In 2023, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $16.5 million, comprised of an $18.1 million provision for credit loss expense on loans, and a $1.6 million release of provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments. In 2022, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $6.6 million, comprised of a $6.8 million provision for credit loss expense on loans, and a $200,000 release of provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments. In addition, a discussion of the factors driving changes in the amount of the ACL is included in the “Allowances for Credit Losses” section below.
Current wording
As a result of management’s modeling, we increased our ACL on loans to $72.3 million as of December 31, 2025; in addition, we increased our ACL on unfunded commitments to $2.1 million as of December 31, 2025, included within other liabilities. We recorded provision for credit losses of $27.6 million in 2025, comprised of $14.2 million of provision for credit loss expense on loans, a Day Two non-PCD provision expense of $13.2 million, and a $185,000 of provision expense on unfunded commitments. Additionally, we recorded a Day One purchase accounting credit mark of $17.5 million to the ACL in relation to the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. In 2024, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $12.8 million, comprised of a $13.6 million provision for credit loss expense on loans, and a $834,000 release of provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments. In 2023, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $16.5 million, comprised of a $18.1 million provision for credit loss expense on loans, and a $1.6 million release of provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments. In addition, a discussion of the factors driving changes in the amount of the ACL is included in the “Allowances for Credit Losses” section below.

Our net interest income decreased $10.3 million, or 4.1%, to $241.6 million for 2024, from $251.9 million for 2023. The decrease in 2024 was primarily driven by the higher interest rate environment through much of 2024, which resulted in our cost of funds increasing primarily due to CD specials, exception pricing on deposits and higher rates paid on short-term borrowings. Our net interest margin, which is net interest income divided by total interest-earning assets, was 4.61% for the year ended 2024, compared to 4.64% for the year ended 2023, a decrease of three basis points. Our net interest margin on a taxable equivalent (TE) basis was 4.63% for the year ended 2024, compared to 4.67% for the year ended 2023, a decrease of four basis points. Average interest earning assets decreased $185.4 million during 2024 as volume slowed and rates reflected significant growth, impacting net interest income. The increase in interest expense in 2024 compared to 2023 was due primarily to an expense increase in all interest bearing deposit categories due to higher rates, partially offset by lower average balances in our short-term funding (FHLBC advances) throughout 2024.
Current wording
Our net interest income increased $51.3 million, or 21.2%, to $293.0 million for 2025, from $241.6 million for 2024. The increase in 2025 was primarily driven by the higher interest rate environment through much of 2025 as well as the acquisition of Bancorp Financial, which resulted in increased loan income from the acquired loan portfolio. Our net interest margin, which is net interest income divided by total interest-earning assets, was 4.96% for the year ended 2025, compared to 4.61% for the year ended 2024, an increase of 35 basis points. Our net interest margin on a taxable equivalent (TE) basis was 4.98% for the year ended 2025, compared to 4.63% for the year ended 2024, an increase of 35 basis points. Average interest earning assets increased $667.5 million during 2025 as volume increased from the loan portfolio acquired from Bancorp Financial and rates reflected significant growth, impacting net interest income. The increase in interest expense in 2025 compared to 2024 was due primarily to an expense increase in all interest bearing deposit categories due to higher rates and the interest bearing deposits assumed from the Bancorp Financial acquisition, partially offset by lower average balances in our short-term funding (overnight FHLBC advances) throughout 2025.
Previous wording
Our average earning assets decreased $185.4 million, or 3.4%, to $5.24 billion in 2024, from $5.43 billion in 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in our securities portfolio. Our average earning assets decreased $255.1 million, or 4.5%, to $5.43 billion in 2023, from $5.68 billion in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in our securities portfolio and our interest earning deposits, partially offset by organic leases, commercial real estate and multifamily loan growth.
Current wording
Our average earning assets increased $667.5 million, or 12.7%, to $5.91 billion in 2025, from $5.24 billion in 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in our loan portfolio due to the acquisition of Bancorp Financial. Our average earning assets decreased $185.4 million, or 3.4%, to $5.24 billion in 2024, from $5.43 billion in 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in our securities portfolio.
Previous wording
Our average interest bearing liabilities decreased $133.8 million, or 4.0%, to $3.21 billion for 2024, from $3.34 billion in 2023, due primarily to a decrease in all deposit categories other than time deposits, as well as a noteworthy decrease in other short-term borrowings. Average interest bearing deposits decreased by $36.6 million, or 1.3%, to $2.81 billion in 2024, compared to $2.85 billion in 2023. Our average borrowings decreased $97.3 million to $394.7 million in 2024 from $492.0 million in 2023. This was mainly due to a decrease of $84.8 million in average other short-term borrowings due to a reduction in FHLBC advances throughout 2024. Also contributing to the decrease in our average borrowings was a $22.0 million decrease in average senior notes as the remaining principal was paid off in its entirety in June 2023 and a $1.3 million decrease in average notes payable as the term loan was paid off in its entirety in February 2023. Partially offsetting the decrease in our average borrowings was an increase of $10.7 million in average securities sold under repurchase agreements.
Current wording
Our average interest bearing liabilities increased $545.1 million, or 17.0%, to $3.75 billion for 2025, from $3.21 billion in 2024, due primarily to an increase in all deposit categories, partially offset by a significant decrease to other short term borrowings. The increase in average interest bearing deposits is a result of the deposits assumed from the Bancorp Financial acquisition. Average interest bearing deposits increased by $768.2 million, or 27.3%, to $3.58 billion in 2025, compared to $2.81 billion in 2024. Our average borrowings decreased $223.2 million to $171.5 million in 2025 from $394.7 million in 2024, driven by a decrease of $224.1 million in average other short-term borrowings due to a reduction in overnight FHLBC advances throughout 2025. Partially offsetting the decrease in our average borrowings was an increase of $7.5 million in notes payable due to FHLB long-term putable advances that were assumed in the Bancorp Financial acquisition.

We recorded a $12.8 million provision for credit losses in 2024, a decrease of $3.8 million, from 2023. The decrease in provision expense over the prior year was primarily due to the decrease in loans of $61.6 million in 2024, and lower current-year net charge offs, as well as improved asset quality and economic factors. The 2023 provision for credit losses of $16.5 million compared to $10.0 million in 2022 was primarily due to loan growth of $173.3 million in 2023 and prior-year net charge offs, partially offset by improved economic factors.
Current wording
We recorded a $27.6 million provision for credit losses in 2025, an increase of $14.8 million from 2024. The increase in provision expense over the prior year was primarily due to the $13.2 million of Day Two non-PCD provision expense in relation to the Bancorp Financial acquisition and increased current year charge offs within the newly acquired powersport loan segment. The 2024 provision for credit losses of $12.8 million compared to $16.5 million in 2023 was primarily due to the decrease in loans of $61.6 million in 2024, and lower current-year net charge offs, as well as improved asset quality and economic factors.

Our total securities decreased by $31.1 million, or 2.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 2023, primarily due to $304.2 million of paydowns, maturities, and calls and $5.3 million of strategic sales. These decreases in 2024 were partially offset by security purchases of $265.5 million as well as the $15.5 million reduction of unrealized losses recorded in 2024. We recorded no pretax net security gains or losses in 2024 compared to pretax net losses of $4.1 million in 2023.
Current wording

These decreases in 2025 were partially offset by security purchases of $191.6 million as well as the $25.6 million reduction of unrealized losses recorded in 2025. We recorded pretax net security gains of $7,000 in 2025 compared to no pretax net gains or losses in 2024.

The quality of our loan portfolio is in large part a reflection of the economic health of the communities in which we operate. Our local communities have been relatively stable in the past five years. While there are no significant concentrations of loans where the customers’ ability to honor loan terms is dependent upon a single economic sector, the real estate categories represented 67.2% and 68.8% of the portfolio at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our lending exposure is diversified across our each of our segments presented above. Though 2024 experienced a net decline in the overall portfolio, leases and commercial real estate – investor continued to grow. We had no concentration of loans exceeding 10% of total loans that were not otherwise disclosed as a category of loans at December 31, 2024. We remain committed to overseeing and managing our loan portfolio to avoid unnecessarily high credit concentrations in accordance with the general interagency guidance on risk management. Consistent with those commitments, management monitors our asset diversification and anticipates that the percentage of real estate lending in relation to the overall portfolio will decrease in the future.

Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when principal or interest is 90 days or more past due, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, interest previously accrued but not collected in the current period is reversed against current period interest income. Interest income of approximately $815,000, $1.9 million and $284,000 was recorded and collected during 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, on loans that subsequently went to nonaccrual status by year-end. Interest income, which would have been recognized during 2024, 2023 and 2022, had these loans been on an accrual basis throughout the year, was approximately $4.2 million, $7.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively.
Current wording
Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when principal or interest is 90 days or more past due, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection.

Classified loans include nonaccrual and all other loans considered substandard. Classified assets include both classified loans and OREO. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by either the current net worth and ability to meet payment obligations of the obligor, or by the collateral pledged to secure the loan, if any. These loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and carry the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if deficiencies remain uncorrected.

Total classified loans decreased in 2024 by $40.8 million compared to 2023, and increased in 2023 by $23.9 million compared to 2022. The decrease in 2024 is primarily due to a decrease of $29.3 million of Commercial real estate – investor loans and $27.0 million of commercial real estate – owner occupied, and partially offset by an increase of $16.3 million of commercial, compared to 2023. In 2024, the decrease to classified commercial real estate – owner occupied and commercial real estate – investor loans were driven by loan risk rating upgrades of $20.1 million for commercial real estate – owner occupied and $8.8 million for commercial real estate – investor, primarily in the healthcare industry. The rise in 2023 is primarily due to an increase of $16.4 million of Commercial real estate – investor loans, an increase of $13.7 million of commercial real estate – owner occupied, and an increase of $15.8 million of construction, compared to 2022. In 2023, the increases to classified commercial real estate – owner occupied and commercial real estate – investor loans were driven by downgrades to loans collateralized by office buildings and senior/assisted living facilities.

Total classified assets, which includes OREO, decreased $24.3 million in 2024 compared to 2023 but increased compared to 2022. The decrease in classified loans year over year was negatively offset by a $16.5 million increase in OREO in 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to the transfer of five properties with a net fair value of $19.4 million, net of participations and valuation adjustments. Our OREO portfolio increased $3.6 million in 2023 from 2022. Management monitors a metric of classified assets to the sum of Bank Tier 1 capital and the ACL, which is referred to as the “classified assets ratio.” Our classified assets ratio decreased to 17.37% at December 31, 2024, compared to 21.66% at December 31, 2023, from 18.36% at December 31, 2022.
Current wording
Total classified assets, which includes OREO and repossessed assets, increased $38.8 million in 2025 compared to 2024. The increase in classified assets year over year was mostly due to the increases to classified loans but were offset by a $20.2 decrease to OREO in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to the sales of five OREO properties for a net fair value of $24.7 million. Our OREO portfolio increased $16.5 million in 2024 from 2023, primarily due to the transfer of five properties with a net fair value of $19.4 million, net of participations and valuation adjustments.

The decrease was due to large charge offs taken in the fourth quarter of 2024 and changes with our economic forecast during the year.
Current wording
At December 31, 2025, the ACL on loans totaled $72.3 million, and the ACL on unfunded commitments, included in other liabilities, totaled $2.1 million, compared to the ACL on loans of $43.6 million and ACL on unfunded commitments of $1.9 million at December 31, 2024. The increase in the ACL on loans was primarily due to a Day One PCD allocation of $17.5 million and a Day Two non-PCD provision of $13.2 million in relation to the Bancorp Financial acquisition.
Previous wording
One measure of the adequacy of the ACL is the ratio of the ACL on loans to total loans. The ACL as a percentage of total loans was 1.1% as of December 31, 2024 and as of December 31, 2023. In management’s judgment, an adequate allowance for estimated losses has been established; however, there can be no assurance that losses will not exceed the estimated amounts in the future.

We withheld 32,524 shares for $455,000 to satisfy RSU vesting tax withholding obligations in 2022, which increased treasury stock. This increase was offset by issuance of 153,790 shares for RSU vestings, which totaled $3.1 million. The net impact was a decrease to treasury stock of 121,266 shares, totaling $2.7 million as of December 31, 2022. The net decrease in treasury stock increased stockholders’ equity, and also decreased earnings per share by increasing the number of shares outstanding.
