Current report
The Company’s provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $2.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The increase in provision expense was expected as the industry returns to a normal credit cycle from historically low credit losses.
Current report
The primary reasons for the more significant changes in other income components for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 are as follows:
Current report
Wealth management revenues increased due to the acquisition of Two Rivers on February 28, 2026, including their trust and brokerage portfolio.

The following table indicates the expected maturities of investment securities classified as available-for-sale presented at fair value, and held-to-maturity presented at amortized cost, at March 31, 2026, and the weighted average yield for each range of maturities (dollars in thousands):
Current report
The weighted average yields are calculated on the basis of the amortized cost and effective yields weighted for the scheduled maturity of each security. Tax equivalent yields have been calculated using a 21% tax rate. With the exception of obligations of the U.S. Treasury and other U.S. government agencies and corporations, there were no investment securities of any single issuer, which the book value exceeded 10% of stockholders' equity at March 31, 2026. Investment securities carried at approximately $481.4 million and $473.8 million at March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and repurchase agreements and for other purposes as permitted or required by law.
Current report
Commercial and commercial real estate loans generally involve higher credit risks than residential real estate and consumer loans. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate or equipment are often dependent upon the successful operation and management of the underlying assets, repayment of such loans may be influenced to a great extent by conditions in the market or the economy. The Company does not have any sub-prime mortgages or credit card loans outstanding which are also generally considered to be higher credit risk.
Current report
The allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans ratio has decreased due to the acquired nonperforming loans from Two Rivers Bank. Management believes that the overall estimate of the allowance for credit losses appropriately accounts for probable losses attributable to current exposures.
Current report
On February 28, 2026, the Company assumed, as part of the Two Rivers acquisition, $20.0 million principal amount of 3.75% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Note Payable due 2029 (“Two Rivers Note Payable”).

This Indenture governs the terms of the Two Rivers Note Payable and provides that such note is unsecured and will mature on September 30, 2029. From and including the date of issuance to, but excluding the date of merger of Two Rivers Bank and First Mid Bank, the notes will bear interest at an initial rate of 3.75% per annum. From and including the date of merger of Two Rivers Bank and First Mid Bank to, but excluding the maturity date, the notes will bear interest at a floating rate equal to thirty-day Term SOFR plus a spread of 275 basis points. As of March 31, 2026, $19.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the Two Rivers Note Payable remains issued and outstanding.

Previous report
Following are explanations for the significant changes in these other expense categories for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024:
Previous report

The decrease in effective rate is primarily related to a true-up of the Company's tax accrual and the state of Illinois law change that became effective during the second quarter of 2024 that required a one-time revalue of deferred taxes and resulted in a decrease Illinois apportionment percentage for all of 2025.
Previous report
On July 4, 2025, The One Big Beautiful Bill Act, was signed into law. The Company has completed its evaluation of the provisions of the bill and does not expect it to have a material impact on its financial statements.
Previous report

While these regions have experienced some economic stress during 2024 and 2025, the Company does not consider these locations high risk areas for quick and material economic shifts.
Previous report

Previous report

Previous report
Similarly, the final rule implementing the Basel III reforms allows holding companies with less than $15.0 billion in consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009 to continue to count toward Tier 1 capital any trust preferred securities issued before May 19, 2010. New issuances of trust preferred securities, however, would not count as Tier 1 regulatory capital.
Previous report
The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Bank holding companies follow minimum regulatory requirements established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve System”), First Mid Bank follows similar minimum regulatory requirements established for banks by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as applicable. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary action by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Quantitative measures established by regulatory capital standards to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and its subsidiary bank to maintain minimum capital amounts and ratios. Management believes that, as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company and First Mid Bank, as applicable, met all capital adequacy requirements, as further detailed in Note 10 of our consolidated financial statements.
Previous report
First Mid Bank enters into financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include lines of credit, letters of credit and other commitments to extend credit. Each of these instruments involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company uses the same credit policies and requires similar collateral in approving lines of credit and commitments and issuing letters of credit as it does in making loans. The exposure to credit losses on financial instruments is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. However, the Company does not anticipate any losses from these instruments. Off-balance sheet arrangements are further detailed in Note 11 of our consolidated financial statements.
