Midland States Bancorp, Inc.

During the first quarter of 2025, Management determined that a triggering event had occurred at its Banking reporting unit as a result of further deteriorated credit quality coupled with the trends in the stock price. The Company performed a quantitative impairment test on its Banking reporting unit as of March 31, 2025, and engaged a third-party service provider to assist Management with the determination of the fair value. The resulting calculation indicated that the carrying amount exceeded the fair value of the Company's Banking reporting unit. As a result of the assessment, the Company expects to recognize goodwill impairment expense between $135.0 million and $154.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. This non-cash impairment expense will not impact our regulatory capital ratios, tangible common equity ratio nor our liquidity position, and will not result in future cash expenditures. During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
