Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Information

To the Shareholders, Board of Directors, and Audit Committee

Poplar Bluff, Missouri

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated September 13, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2)involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Allowances for Credit Losses

The Company’s loan portfolio totaled $3.8 billion as of June 30, 2024 and the associated allowance for credit losses on loans (“ACL”) was $52.5 million. In calculating the ACL, loans were segmented into pools based upon similar risk characteristics. For each of these loan pools, management measured expected credit losses over the life of each loan utilizing either a remaining life model or a discounted cash flow (DCF) model. The models utilize loss data from similar peers to calculate an expected loss percentage for each loan pool. The models were adjusted to reflect the current impact of certain macroeconomic variables as well as their expected changes over a reasonable and supportable forecast period. Additional qualitative adjustments are applied for risk factors that are not considered within the modeling process but are relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within the loan pools. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis, which may be based on the fair value of the collateral or a discounted cash flow model of expected cash flows.

We identified the ACL as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for our determination included the high degree of judgment and subjectivity in auditing management’s estimate of the ACL, specifically management’s identification and measurement of the qualitative factor adjustments. This required a high degree of subjectivity and auditor effort due to the complexities of the model and the nature of the qualitative factor adjustments.

The primary audit procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

•Obtained an understanding and evaluated and tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls relating management’s estimate of the ACL, including controls over:

o The completeness and accuracy of loan data; and

oThe identification of qualitative factors, including whether the qualitative factor adjustments are adequately supported and accurately applied.
•Tested the mathematical accuracy of the calculation of the ACL, including the mathematical accuracy of the application of the qualitative factor adjustments on the loan pools.
•Evaluated the qualitative factor adjustments made to the ACL, including assessing the reasonableness and basis for those adjustments and testing internal and external data used in determining the qualitative factor adjustments by agreeing significant inputs and underlying data to internal and external sources.
•Assessed management’s judgments and assumptions related to the qualitative factor adjustments by assessing trends in relevant factors and evaluating the relationship of trends to the qualitative factor adjustments applied to the ACL.

NOTE 1: Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

*Organization.*Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the Company) was organized in 1994 and is the parent company of Southern Bank (the Bank). Substantially all of the Company’s consolidated revenues are derived from the operations of the Bank, and the Bank represents substantially all of the Company’s consolidated assets and liabilities. SB Real Estate Investments, LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank formed to hold Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC. Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC is a real estate investment trust (REIT) which is controlled by SB Real Estate Investments, LLC, and has other preferred shareholders in order to meet the requirements to be a REIT. At June 30, 2024, assets of the REIT were approximately $1.4 billion, and consisted primarily of real estate loan participations acquired from the Bank.

The Bank is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking and financial services to individuals and corporate customers in its market areas. The Bank and Company are subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank and Company are subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

*Basis of Financial Statement Presentation.*The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and general practices within the banking industry. In the normal course of business, the Company encounters two significant types of risk: economic and regulatory. Economic risk is comprised of interest rate risk, credit risk, and market risk. The Company is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities reprice on a different basis than its interest-earning assets. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company’s investment or loan portfolios resulting from the borrowers’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of the investment portfolio, collateral underlying loans receivable, and the value of the Company’s investments in real estate.

*Principles of Consolidation.*The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

*Use of Estimates.*The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses.

*Cash and Cash Equivalents.*For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash, due from depository institutions and interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions were $7.7 million and $3.8 million at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The deposits are held in various commercial banks with a total of $2.3 million and $1.3 million exceeding the FDIC deposit insurance limits at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as well as at the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines and Chicago.

*Interest-bearing Time Deposits.*Interest bearing deposits in banks mature within three years and are carried at cost.

*Available for Sale Securities.*Available for sale securities (“AFS”), which include any security for which the Company has no immediate plan to sell but which may be sold in the future, are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity. All securities have been classified as available for sale.

Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized or accreted as adjustments to income over the estimated life of the security using the level yield method. Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities is based on the specific identification method. The fair value of securities is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

The Company does not invest in collateralized mortgage obligations that are considered high risk.

For AFS securities with fair value less than amortized cost that management has no intent to sell and believes that it more likely than not will not be required to sell prior to recovery, only the credit loss component of the impairment is recognized in earnings, while the noncredit loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The credit loss component recognized in earnings is identified as the amount of principal cash flows not expected to be received over the remaining term of the security as projected based on cash flow projections, and is recorded to the ACL, by a charge to provision for credit losses. Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Both the ACL and the adjustment to net income may be reversed if conditions change. However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired AFS security, or, if it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount would be recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. Because the security’s amortized cost basis is adjusted to fair value, there is no ACL in this situation.

The Company evaluates impaired AFS securities at the individual level on a quarterly basis, and considers factors including, but not limited to: the extent to which the fair value of the security is less than the amortized cost basis; adverse conditions specifically related to the security, an industry, or geographic area; the payment structure of the security and likelihood of the issuer to be able to make payments that may increase in the future; failure of the issuer to make scheduled interest or principal payments; any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency; and the ability and intent to hold the security until maturity. A qualitative determination as to whether any portion of the impairment is attributable to credit risk is acceptable. There were no credit related factors underlying unrealized losses on AFS securities at June 30, 2024, or June 30, 2023.

Changes in the ACL are recorded as expense. Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes the uncollectability of an AFS debt security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

*Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock.*The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) systems. Capital stock of the Federal Reserve and the FHLB is a required investment based upon a predetermined formula and is carried at cost.

*Loans.*Loans are generally stated at unpaid principal balances, less the ACL, any net deferred loan origination fees, and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.

Interest on loans is accrued based upon the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when, in management’s judgment, the collectability of interest or principal in the normal course of business is doubtful. The Company complies with regulatory guidance which indicates that loans should be placed in nonaccrual status when 90 days past due, unless the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection. A loan that is “in the process of collection” may be subject to legal action or, in appropriate circumstances, through other collection efforts reasonably expected to result in repayment or restoration to current status in the near future. A loan is considered delinquent when a payment has not been made by the contractual due date. Interest income previously accrued but not collected at the date a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Cash receipts on a nonaccrual loan are applied to principal and interest in accordance with its contractual terms unless full payment of principal is not expected, in which case cash receipts, whether designated as principal or interest, are applied as a reduction of the carrying value of the loan. A nonaccrual loan is generally returned to accrual status when principal and interest payments are current, full collectability of principal and interest is reasonably assured, and a consistent record of performance has been demonstrated.

The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans, and is established through provision for credit losses charged to current earnings. The ACL is increased by the provision for losses on loans charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. Loans are charged off in the period deemed uncollectible, based on management’s analysis of expected cash flows (for non-collateral dependent loans) or collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans). Subsequent recoveries of loans previously charged off, if any, are credited to the allowance when received.

Management estimates the ACL using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments may be made to historical loss information for differences identified in current loan-specific risk characteristics, such as differences in underwriting standards or terms; lending review systems; experience, ability, or depth of lending management and staff; portfolio growth and mix; delinquency levels and trends; as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in economic activity or employment, agricultural economic conditions, property values, or other relevant factors. The Company generally incorporates a reasonable and supportable forecast period of four quarters, and a four-quarter, straight-line reversion period to return to long-term historical averages.

The ACL is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. For loans that do not share general risk characteristics with the collectively evaluated pools, the Company estimates credit losses on an individual loan basis, and these loans are excluded from the collectively evaluated pools. An ACL for an individually evaluated loan is recorded when the amortized cost basis of the loan exceeds the discounted estimated cash flows using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. For the collectively evaluated pools, the Company segments the loan portfolio primarily by loan purpose and collateral into 24 pools, which are homogeneous groups of loans that possess similar loss potential characteristics. The Company primarily utilizes the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology for measurement of the required ACL. For a limited number of pools with a relatively small balance of unpaid principal balance, the Company utilizes the remaining life method. The DCF model implements probability of default (“PD”) and loss given default (“LGD”) calculations at the instrument level. PD and LGD are determined based on a regression analysis and correlation of historical losses with various economic factors over time. In general, the Company’s losses have not correlated well with economic factors, and the Company has utilized peer data where more appropriate. The Company defines a default as an event of charge off, an adverse (substandard or worse) internal credit rating, becoming delinquent 90 days or more, or being placed on nonaccrual status. A PD/LGD estimate is applied to a projected model of the loan’s cashflow, including principal and interest payments, with consideration for prepayment speeds, principal curtailments, and recovery lag.

Loans acquired in a business combination that have experienced more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination are considered purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans. At the acquisition date, an estimate of expected credit losses is made for groups of PCD loans with similar risk characteristics and individual PCD loans without similar risk characteristics. This initial ACL is allocated to individual PCD loans and added to the purchase price or acquisition date fair values to establish the initial amortized cost basis of the PCD loans. As the initial ACL is added to the purchase price, there is no credit loss expense recognized upon acquisition of a PCD loan. Any difference between the unpaid principal balance of PCD loans and the amortized cost basis is considered to relate to non-credit factors and results in a discount or premium. Discounts and premiums are recognized through interest income on a level-yield method over the life of the loans.

Loan fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred, and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method over the contractual life of the loans.

*Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures.*Off-balance sheet credit instruments include commitments to make loans, and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for off-balance sheet loan commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is estimated by loan pool on a quarterly basis under the current CECL model using the same methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will

occur and is included in other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company records an ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures, unless the commitments to extend credit are unconditionally cancelable.

*Foreclosed Real Estate.*Real estate acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs, establishing a new cost basis. Costs for development and improvement of the property are capitalized.

Valuations are periodically performed by management, and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property exceeds its estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs.

Loans to facilitate the sale of real estate acquired in foreclosure are discounted if made at less than market rates. Discounts are amortized over the fixed interest period of each loan using the interest method.

*Premises and Equipment.*Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and include expenditures for major betterments and renewals. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. When property is retired or sold, the retired asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss taken into income. The Company reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment loss recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets.

Depreciation is computed by use of straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated lives are generally seven toforty years for premises, three toseven years for equipment, andthree years for software.

*Bank Owned Life Insurance.*Bank owned life insurance policies are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at the estimated cash surrender value. Changes in the cash surrender value of these policies, as well as a portion of the insurance proceeds received, are recorded in noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.

*Goodwill.*The Company’s goodwill is evaluated annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. A qualitative assessment is performed to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not the fair value is less than the carrying amount, including goodwill. If, based on the evaluation, it is determined to be more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, then goodwill is tested further for impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, a goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2024, there wasno impairment indicated, based on a qualitative assessment of goodwill, which considered: the market value of the Company’s common stock, concentrations of credit; profitability; nonperforming assets; capital levels; and results of recent regulatory examinations.

*Intangible Assets.*The Company’s intangible assets at June 30, 2024 included gross core deposit intangibles of $39.1 million with $17.8 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $6.4 million with accumulated amortization of $4.2 million, and mortgage and SBA servicing rights of $3.0 million. At June 30, 2023, the Company’s intangible assets included gross core deposit intangibles of $39.1 million with $14.0 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $6.4 million with accumulated amortization of $3.9 million, and mortgage and SBA servicing rights of $2.9 million. The Company’s core deposit intangible assets are being amortized using the straight line method, over periods ranging from five toten years, with amortization expense expected to be approximately $3.5 million in fiscal 2025, $3.0 million in fiscal 2026, $2.7 million in fiscal 2027, $2.7 million in fiscal 2028, $2.6 million in fiscal 2029, and $8.8 million thereafter. As of June 30, 2024, and June 30, 2023, there wasno impairment indicated.

The Company records mortgage servicing rights (MSR) at fair value for all loans sold on a servicing retained basis with subsequent adjustments to fair value of MSR in accordance with FASB ASC 860. An estimate of the fair value of the Company’s MSR is determined utilizing assumptions about factors such as mortgage interest rates, discount

rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds, market trends and industry demand. Changes in the fair value of MSR are recorded in loan servicing fees in the consolidated statements of income.

*Income Taxes.*The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to the management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense.

The Company files consolidated income tax returns with its subsidiaries, the Bank and SB Real Estate Investments, LLC, with a tax year ended June 30. Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC files a separate REIT return for federal tax purposes, and also files state income tax returns with a tax year ended December 31.

*Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities.The Company enters into derivative financial instruments, primarily interest rate swaps, to manage interest rate risk, facilitate asset/liability management strategies and manage other exposures. *Derivative instruments are accounted pursuant to ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, which requires companies to recognize derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. All derivative financial instruments are recognized as other assets or other liabilities, as applicable, at estimated fair value. The change in each of these financial statement line items is included as operating cash flows in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company does not speculate using derivative instruments. Derivative financial instruments are more fully described in Note 16.

*Incentive Plans.*The Company accounts for its Equity Incentive Plan (EIP), and Omnibus Incentive Plan (OIP) in accordance with ASC 718, “Share-Based Payment.” Compensation expense is based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the date the shares are granted and is recorded over the vesting period. The difference between the grant-date fair value and the fair value on the date the shares are considered earned represents a tax benefit to the Company that is recorded as an adjustment to income tax expense.

*Non-Employee Directors’ Retirement.*The Bank entered into directors’ retirement agreements beginning in April 1994 for non-employee directors and continued to do so for new non-employee directors joining the Bank’s board through December 2014. These directors’ retirement agreements provide that each participating non-employee director (participant) shall receive, upon termination of service on the Board on or after age 60, other than termination for cause, a benefit in equal annual installments over afive year period. The benefit will be based upon the product of the participant’s vesting percentage and the total Board fees paid to the participant during the calendar year preceding termination of service on the Board. The vesting percentage shall be determined based upon the participant’s years of service on the Board.

In the event that the participant dies before collecting any or all of the benefits, the Bank shall pay the participant’s beneficiary. Benefits shall not be payable to anyone other than the beneficiary, and shall terminate on the death of the beneficiary.

Stock Options. Compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued, and recognized over the vesting period during which an employee provides service in exchange for the award.

*Earnings Per Share.*Basic earnings per share available to common stockholders is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders includes the effect of all weighted-average dilutive potential common shares (stock options and restricted stock grants) outstanding during each period.

*Comprehensive Income.*Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes. Other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities for which a credit loss has been recognized in income, and changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans.

*Transfers Between Fair Value Hierarchy Levels.*Transfers in and out of Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (other significant observable inputs) and Level 3 (significant unobservable inputs) are recognized on the period ending date.

Wealth Management Assets and Fees. Assets managed in fiduciary or investment management accounts by the Company are not included in the consolidated balance sheets since such items are not assets of the Company or its subsidiaries. Fees from fiduciary or investment management activities are recorded on a cash basis over the period in which the service is provided. Fees are generally a function of the market value of assets managed and administered, the volume of transactions, and fees for other services rendered, as set forth in the agreement between the customer and the Company. This revenue recognition involves the use of estimates and assumptions, including components that are calculated based on asset valuations and transaction volumes. Any out-of-pocket expenses or services not typically covered by the fee schedule for fiduciary activities are charged directly to the account on a gross basis as revenue is incurred. The Southern Wealth Management division held fiduciary assets totaling $100.9 million and $102.0 as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and investment management assets totaling $474.7 million and $464.2 million as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The following paragraphs summarize the impact of new accounting pronouncements:

In January 2021, the FASB published ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform. (Topic 848)”. ASU 2021-01 clarified that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The ASU also amended the expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 to capture the incremental consequences of the scope clarification and to tailor the existing guidance to derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition. An entity may elect to apply the amendments in this update on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or on a prospective basis to new modifications from any date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to the date of the issuance of a final update, up to the date that financial statements are available to be issued. If an entity elects to apply any of the amendments in this update for an eligible hedging relationship, any adjustments as a result of those elections must be reflected as of the date the entity applies the election. Originally, the amendments in this update did not apply to contract modifications made after December 31, 2022, new hedging relationships entered into after December 31, 2022, and existing hedging relationships evaluated for effectiveness in periods after December 31, 2022 except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that apply certain optional expedients in which the accounting effects are recorded through the end of the hedging relationship (including periods after December 31, 2022). With the issuance of ASU 2022-06 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, the sunset date for adoption of ASU 2021-01 was extended from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On December 14, 2023, FASB published ASU 2023-02,“Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” This ASU permits reporting entities to elect to account for tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program for which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the income tax credits and other income tax benefits received and recognizes the net amortization and income tax credits and other income tax benefits in the income statement as a component of income tax expense. A reporting entity makes an accounting policy election to apply the proportional amortization method on a tax-credit-program-by-tax-credit-program basis rather than electing to apply the proportional amortization method at the reporting entity level or to individual investments. This ASU also requires specific disclosures of investments that generate income tax credits and other income tax benefits from a tax credit program for which the entity has elected to apply the proportional amortization method. The ASU was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and will be effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2024. The adoption of ASU 2023-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On July 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU No. 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.” ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting guidance for TDRs in ASC 310-40, “Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors” for entities that have adopted the CECL model introduced by ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2022-02 also requires that public business entities disclose current period gross charge-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measured at Amortized Cost.” The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740)”. ASU 2023-09 was issued to address requests by investors and creditors for enhanced transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. Public business entities (PBEs) would be required to prepare an annual detailed, tabular tax rate reconciliation. All other entities would be required to provide qualitative disclosure on specific categories and individual jurisdictions that result in significant differences between the statutory and effective tax rates. All entities would be required to annually disclose taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, as well as disaggregating taxes by individual jurisdiction if taxes paid exceed 5% of total income taxes paid. The ASU is effective for PBEs for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The carrying value of investment and mortgage-backed securities pledged as collateral to secure public deposits amounted to$265.5 million and $253.9 million at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The securities pledged consist of marketable securities, including $137.0 million and $129.2 million of MBS, $103.5 million and $94.8 million of CMOs, $20.8 million and $26.5 million of State and Political Subdivisions Obligations, and $4.3 million and $3.4 million of Other Securities at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Gross gains of $67,000 and gross losses of $1.6 million were recognized from sales of available-for-sale securities in fiscal 2024. There wereno gains or losses recognized from sales of available-for-sale securities in fiscal 2023 or 2022.

The Company did not hold any securities of a single issuer, payable from and secured by the same source of revenue or taxing authority, the book value of which exceeded 10% of stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2024.

Certain investments in debt securities are reported in the consolidated financial statements at an amount less than their historical cost. Total fair value of these investments at June 30, 2024, was $312.9 million, which is approximately 73.1% of the Company’s AFS investment portfolio, as compared to $325.5 million or approximately 78.0% of the Company’s AFS investment portfolio at June 30, 2023. Management believes the declines in fair value for these securities to be temporary.

The following tables below show the Company’s investments’ gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for which ACL has not been recorded at June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Obligations of state and political subdivisions. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in obligations of state and political subdivisions include eight individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and 46 individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. The securities are performing and are of high credit quality. The unrealized losses were caused by increases in market interest rates since purchase or acquisition. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company has not recorded an ACL on these securities.

Corporate and other Obligations. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in corporate obligations includeone individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and 19 individual securitie which has been in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. The securities are performing. The unrealized losses were caused by increases in market interest rates since purchase or acquisition. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company has not recorded an ACL on these securities.

Asset-Backed securities. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in asset-backed securities includesno individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months andfour individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. The securities are performing and are of high credit quality. The unrealized loss was caused by variations in market interest rates and spreads since purchase or acquisition. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company has not recorded an ACL on these securities.

MBS and CMOs. As of June 30, 2024, the unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in MBS and CMOs include 16 individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months, and 114 individual securities which have been in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more. The securities are performing and are of high credit quality. The unrealized losses were caused by increases in market interest rates since purchase or acquisition. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company has not recorded an ACL on these securities.

The Company’s lending activities consist of origination of loans secured by mortgages on one- to four-family residences and commercial and agricultural real estate, construction loans on residential and commercial properties, commercial and agricultural business loans and consumer loans. At June 30, 2024, the Bank had purchased participation interests in 71 loans totaling $178.5 million, as compared to 86 loans totaling $155.6 million at June 30, 2023, with the increase due primarily to participations acquired in the Citizens merger.

Residential Mortgage Lending. The Company actively originates loans for the acquisition or refinance of one- to four-family residences. This category includes both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage (“ARM”) loans amortizing over periods of up to 30 years, and the properties securing such loans may be owner-occupied or non-owner-occupied. Single-family residential loans do not generally exceed 90% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property. Substantially all of the one- to four-family residential mortgage originations in the Company’s portfolio are located within the Company’s primary lending area. General risks related to one- to four-family residential lending include stability of borrower income and collateral values.

The Company also originates loans secured by multi-family residential properties that are often located outside the Company’s primary lending area but made to borrowers who operate within the Company’s primary market area. The majority of the multi-family residential loans that are originated by the Company are amortized over periods generally up to 25 years, with balloon maturities typically up toten years. Both fixed and adjustable interest rates are offered and it is typical for the Company to include an interest rate “floor” and “ceiling” in the loan agreement. Generally, multi-family residential loans do not exceed 85% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property. General risks related to multi-family residential lending include rental demand and supply, rental rates, and vacancies, as well as collateral values and borrower leverage.

Commercial Real Estate Lending. The Company actively originates loans secured by owner- and non-owner-occupied commercial real estate including farmland, single- and multi-tenant retail properties, restaurants, hotels, land (improved and unimproved), nursing homes and other healthcare facilities, warehouses and distribution centers, convenience stores, automobile dealerships and other automotive-related services, and other businesses. These properties are typically owned and operated by borrowers headquartered within the Company’s primary lending area, however, the property may be located outside the Company’s primary lending area. Approximately $626.3 million of the Company’s $1.6 billion in commercial real estate loans are secured by properties located outside our primary lending area. Risks to owner-occupied commercial real estate lending generally include the continued profitable operation of the borrower’s enterprise, as well as general collateral values, and may be heightened by unique, specific uses of the property serving as collateral. Non-owner-occupied commercial real estate lending risks include tenant demand and performance, lease rates, and vacancies, as well as collateral values and borrower leverage. These factors may be influenced by general economic conditions in the region, or in the United States generally. Risks to lending on farmland include unique factors such as commodity prices, yields, input costs, and weather, as well as farmland values.

Most commercial real estate loans originated by the Company generally are based on amortization schedules of up to 25 years with monthly principal and interest payments. Generally, the interest rate received on these loans is fixed for a maturity for up toten years, with a balloon payment due at maturity. Alternatively, for some loans, the interest rate adjusts at least annually after an initial period up toseven years. The Company typically includes an interest rate “floor” in the loan agreement. Generally, improved commercial real estate loan amounts do not exceed 80% of the lower of the appraised value or the purchase price of the secured property. Agricultural real estate terms offered differ slightly, with amortization schedules of up to 25 years with an 80% loan-to-value ratio, or 30 years with a 75% loan-to-value ratio.

Construction Lending. The Company originates real estate loans secured by property or land that is under construction or development. Construction loans originated by the Company are generally to finance the construction of owner occupied residential real estate, or to finance speculative construction of residential real estate, land development, or owner-operated or non-owner occupied commercial real estate. During construction, these loans typically require monthly interest-only payments, with single-family residential construction loans having maturities ranging fromsix totwelve months, while multi-family or commercial construction loans typically mature in 12 to 36 months. Once construction is completed, permanent construction loans may be converted to monthly payments using amortization schedules of up to 30 years on residential and generally up to 25 years on commercial real estate. Construction and development lending risks generally include successful timely and on-budget completion of the project, followed by the sale of the property in the case of land development or non-owner-occupied real estate, or the long-term occupancy of the property by the builder in the case of owner-occupied construction. Changes in real estate values or other economic conditions may impact the ability of a borrower to sell property developed for that purpose.

While the Company typically utilizes relatively short maturity periods to closely monitor the inherent risks associated with construction loans for these loans, weather conditions, change orders, availability of materials and/or labor, and other factors may contribute to the lengthening of a project, thus necessitating the need to renew the construction loan at the balloon maturity. Such extensions are typically executed in incremental three month periods to facilitate project completion. The Company’s average term of construction loans is approximately 12 months. During construction, loans typically require monthly interest only payments which may allow the Company an opportunity to monitor for early signs of financial difficulty should the borrower fail to make a required monthly payment. Additionally, during the construction phase, the Company typically performs interim inspections which further provide the Company an opportunity to assess risk.

Consumer Lending. The Company offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity, direct and indirect automobile loans, second mortgages, mobile home loans and loans secured by deposits. The Company originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary lending area. Usually, consumer loans are originated with fixed rates for terms of up to 66 months, with the exception of home equity lines of credit, which are variable, tied to the prime rate of interest and are for a period often years.

Home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) are secured with a deed of trust and are issued up to 90% of the appraised or assessed value of the property securing the line of credit, less the outstanding balance on the first mortgage and are typically issued for a term of ten years. Interest rates on the HELOCs are generally adjustable. Interest rates are based upon the loan-to-value ratio of the property with better rates given to borrowers with more equity. Risks related to HELOC lending generally include the stability of borrower income and collateral values.

Automobile loans originated by the Company include both direct loans and a smaller amount of loans originated by auto dealers. The Company generally pays a negotiated fee back to the dealer for indirect loans. Typically, automobile loans are made for terms of up to 66 months for new and used vehicles. Loans secured by automobiles have fixed rates and are generally made in amounts up to 100% of the purchase price of the vehicle. Risks to automobile and other consumer lending generally include the stability of borrower income and borrower willingness to repay.

Commercial Business Lending. The Company’s commercial business lending activities encompass loans with a variety of purposes and security, including loans to finance accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and operating lines of credit, including agricultural production and equipment loans. The Company offers both fixed and adjustable rate commercial business loans. Generally, commercial loans secured by fixed assets are amortized over periods up tofive years, while commercial operating lines of credit or agricultural production lines are generally for aone year period.

Commercial lending risk is primarily driven by the borrower’s successful generation of cash flow from their business enterprise sufficient to service debt, and may be influenced by factors specific to the borrower and industry, or by general economic conditions in the region or in the United States generally. Agricultural production or equipment lending includes unique risk factors such as commodity prices, yields, input costs, and weather, as well as farm equipment values.

Allowance for Credit Losses. The PCL for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, 2023, and 2022, was $3.6 million, $17.1 million, and $1.5 million, respectively. In fiscal 2024, the company had a $6.6 million PCL for on-balance sheet exposure for loan growth and charge-offs and a $3.0 negative PCL for off-balance sheet exposures, as construction draws reduced available credit and increased on-balance sheet exposure. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, the ACL required for PCD loans acquired in the Citizens merger was$1.1 million, and was funded through purchase accounting adjustments, while the ACL required for non-PCD loans acquired in the Citizens merger was $5.2 million and was funded through a charge to PCL. Additionally, the allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures was increased by $1.8 million due to the Citizens merger and funded through a charge to PCL. Exclusive of the charges required as a result of the Citizens merger, the Company would have recorded a PCL of approximately $10.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, of which $8.9 million was attributable to the required ACL for loan balances outstanding, and $1.2 million was attributable to the required allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the ACL required for PCD loans acquired in the Fortune merger was $120,000, and was funded through purchase accounting adjustments, while the ACL required for non-PCD loans acquired in the Fortune merger was $1.9 million, and was funded through a charge to PCL. Additionally, the allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures was increased by $120,000 due to the Fortune merger and funded through a charge to PCL. Exclusive of the charges required as a result of the Fortune merger, the Company would have recorded a negative PCL of approximately $533,000 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Exclusive of provisioning required by the Citizens merger, increased provisioning for loan balances outstanding in the year ended June 30, 2023 is attributable primarily to loan growth, qualitative adjustments to modeled results based on levels and trends of industry past due loans, and the unguaranteed portion of a small pool of SBA loans exhibiting signs of credit stress, partially offset by a decreased ACL estimate for classified hotel loans that had been slow to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. Decreased provisioning for off-balance sheet credit exposures in the current year was attributable primarily to changes in the level and mix of outstanding credit commitments. The Company estimated its expected credit losses as of June 30, 2024, under ASC 326-20, and management believes the ACL as of that date was adequate based on that estimate. As a percentage of average loans outstanding, the Company recorded net charge-offs of 0.05% during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 0.02% during the prior fiscal year. Specifically, management considered the following primary items in its estimate of the ACL:

economic conditions and projections as provided by the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) were utilized in the Company’s estimate at June 30, 2024. The June 30, 2023, ACL estimate utilized projections from Moody's Analytics, incorporating both baseline and downside scenarios. This change was driven by the automated integration of data within our model. Economic factors considered in the projections included national and state levels of unemployment using the high bound of the FOMC’s central tendency, and national and state rates of inflation-adjusted growth in the gross domestic product using the low bound of the FOMC’s central tendency. Economic conditions are considered to be a moderate and stable risk factor, relative to June 30, 2023;

the pace of growth of the Company’s loan portfolio, exclusive of acquisitions or government guaranteed loans, relative to overall economic growth. This measure is considered to be a moderate and slightly decreasing factor, relative to June 30, 2023;

levels and trends for loan delinquencies nationally and in the region. This is considered to be a low and stable risk factor, relative to June 30, 2023;

quantified supported model adjustments and general imprecision adjustments. This factor was added for the June 30, 2024, ACL estimate as certain model adjustments capture highly specific issues or events that are not adequately captured in model outcomes. General imprecision adjustments address other sources of imprecision that are not specifically identifiable or quantifiable to a particular loan portfolio and have not been captured by

the model or by a specific model adjustment. The Company considers general imprecision in three dimensions; economic forecast imprecision, model imprecision, and process imprecision.

*PCD Loans.*In connection with the Citizens Bancshares, Co. (“Citizens”) merger on January 20, 2023, and Fortune Financial Corporation (“Fortune”) merger on February 25, 2022, the Company acquired loans both with and without evidence of credit quality deterioration since origination. Acquired loans are recorded at their fair value at the time of acquisition with no carryover from the acquired institution’s previously recorded allowance for loan and lease losses. Acquired loans are accounted for under ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.

The fair value of acquired loans recorded at the time of acquisition is based upon several factors, including the timing and payment of expected cash flows, as adjusted for estimated credit losses and prepayments, and then discounting these cash flows using comparable market rates. The resulting fair value adjustment is recorded in the form of a premium or discount to the unpaid principal balance of the respective loans. As it relates to acquired loans that, as of the date of acquisition, have experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination (“PCD”), the net premium or net discount is adjusted to reflect the Company’s allowance for credit losses recorded for PCD loans at the time of acquisition, and the remaining fair value adjustment is accreted or amortized into interest income over the remaining life of the respective loans. As it relates to loans not classified as PCD (“non-PCD”) loans, the credit loss and yield components of their fair value adjustment are aggregated, and the resulting net premium or net discount is accreted or amortized into interest income over the remaining life of the respective loans. The Company records an ACL for non-PCD loans at the time of acquisition through provision expense, and therefore, no further adjustments are made to the net premium or net discount for non-PCD loans.

Loans that the Company acquired from Citizens and Fortune that, at the time of acquisition, had more-than-insignificant deterioration of credit quality since origination are classified as PCD loans and presented in the table below at acquisition carrying value:

Credit Quality Indicators. The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on all loans at origination, and is updated on a quarterly basis for loans risk rated Watch, Special Mention, Substandard, or Doubtful. In addition, lending relationships of $4 million or more, exclusive of any consumer or owner-occupied residential loan, are subject to an annual credit analysis which is prepared by the loan administration department and presented to a loan committee with appropriate lending authority. A sample of lending relationships in excess of $1 million (exclusive of single-family residential real estate loans) are subject to an independent loan review annually, in order to verify risk ratings. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Watch – Loans classified as watch exhibit weaknesses that require more than usual monitoring. Issues may include deteriorating financial condition, payments made after due date but within 30 days, adverse industry conditions or management problems.

Special Mention – Loans classified as special mention exhibit signs of further deterioration but still generally make payments within 30 days. This is a transitional rating and loans should typically not be rated Special Mention for more than 12 months.

Substandard – Loans classified as substandard possess weaknesses that jeopardize the ultimate collection of the principal and interest outstanding. These loans may exhibit continued financial losses, ongoing delinquency, overall poor financial condition, and insufficient collateral.

Doubtful – Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses of substandard loans, and have deteriorated to the level that there is a high probability of substantial loss.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to bePass rated loans.

A periodic review of selected credits (based on loan size and type) is conducted to identify loans with heightened risk or probable losses and to assign risk grades. The primary responsibility for this review rests with loan administration personnel. This review is supplemented with periodic examinations of both selected credits and the credit review process by the Company’s internal audit function and applicable regulatory agencies. The information from these reviews assists management in the timely identification of problems and potential problems and provides a basis for deciding whether the credit continues to share similar risk characteristics with collectively evaluated loan pools, or whether credit losses for the loan should be evaluated on an individual loan basis.

The following table presents the credit risk profile of the Company’s loan portfolio (excluding unfunded commitments on construction loans and deferred loan fees) based on rating category and year of origination as of June 30, 2024. This table includes PCD loans, which are reported according to risk categorization after acquisition based on the Company’s standards for such classification:

At June 30, 2024 there wasone PCD loan totaling $560,000 that was greater than 90 days past due, andnone at June 30,2023.

Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not adversely classified or determined to not share similar risk characteristics with collectively evaluated pools of loans for determination of the ACL estimate. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Significant payment delays or shortfalls may lead to a determination that a loan should be individually evaluated for estimated credit losses.

*Collateral-dependent Loans.*The following table presents the Company’s collateral dependent loans and related ACL at June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The increase in commercial real estate collateral dependent loans is due primarily to two metropolitan area hotel relationships being individually analyzed as of June 30, 2024. In 2023, the Company was previously evaluating its non-owner occupied commercial real estate pool for qualitative adjustments related to similar loans.

Nonaccrual Loans. The following table presents the Company’s amortized cost basis of nonaccrual loans segmented by class of loans at June 30, 2024 and 2023. The table excludes performing modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty at June 30, 2024 and excludes performing troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) at June 30, 2023.

At June 30, 2024, there wereno nonaccrual loans individually evaluated for which no ACL was recorded. Interest income recognized on nonaccrual loans in the periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, was immaterial.

*Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty.*The Company adopted ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures,” effective July 1, 2023. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 eliminated the recognition and measurement of TDRs and enhanced disclosures for loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

During fiscal 2024, two loan modifications, totaling $859,000, were made to loans for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Loans classified as modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty outstanding at June 30, 2024 are shown in the following table segregated by portfolio segment and type of modification. The percentage of amortized cost of loans that were modified compared to total outstanding loans is also presented below.

Both loan modifications made during fiscal 2024 were more than 90 days past due, and were classified as substandard at June 30, 2024. Both of these loans defaulted in fiscal 2024. For modifications to loans made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that are adversely classified, the Company determines the allowance for credit losses on an individual basis, using the same process that it utilizes for other adversely classified loans.

Troubled Debt Restructurings. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2022-02, the Company’s loans that were subject to classification as TDRs were generally the result of guidance under ASU No. 2011-02, which indicated that the Company may not consider the borrower’s effective borrowing rate on the old debt immediately before the restructuring in determining whether a concession has been granted. Certain TDRs were classified as nonperforming at the time of restructuring and typically were returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period of at least six months.

During fiscal 2023, there wereno loans modified as TDRs.

Performing loans classified as TDRs and outstanding at June 30, 2023, segregated by class, are shown in the table below. Nonperforming TDRs at June 30, 2023 are shown in the nonaccrual loans table above.

Leases. The Company elected certain relief options under ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), including the option not to recognize right of use asset and lease liabilities that arise from short-term leases (leases with terms of twelve months or less). The Company has 11 leased properties, which includes banking facilities, administrative offices and ground leases, and numerous office equipment lease agreements in which it is the lessee, with lease terms exceeding twelve months.

The Company leases facilities it owns or portions of facilities it owns to other third parties. The Company has determined that all of these lease agreements, in terms of being the lessor, are classified as operating leases. For the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, income recognized from these lessor agreements was$334,000 and $228,000, respectively. Income from lessor agreements was included in net occupancy and equipment expense. The operating leases are now included as a ROU asset in the premises and equipment line item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The corresponding lease liability is included in the accounts payable and other liabilities line item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

In the February 2022 Fortune merger, the Company assumed a ground lease with an entity that is controlled by a Company insider. This property is in St. Louis County, MO and is in its fourth year of a twenty year term.

ASU 2016-02 also requires certain other accounting elections. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify, meaning those with terms under twelve months. ROU assets or lease liabilities are not to be recognized for short-term leases. The calculated amount of the ROU assets and lease liabilities in the table below are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Company’s lease agreements often include one or more options to renew at the Company’s discretion. If at lease inception, the Company considers the exercising of a renewal option to be reasonably certain, the Company will include the extended term in the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability. Regarding the discount rate, the ASU requires the use of the rate implicit in the lease whenever this rate is readily determinable. As this rate is

rarely determinable, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate at lease inception over a similar term. The range of discount rate utilized was 5.0% to 8.5%. The expected lease terms range from 18 months to 20 years.

NOTE7: Subordinated Debt

In March 2004, the Company established Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I as a statutory business trust, to issue Floating Rate Capital Securities (the “Trust Preferred Securities”). The securities mature in 2034, became redeemable after five years, and bear interest at a floating rate based on SOFR. The securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the trust, which was established by the Company for the purpose of issuing the securities. The Trust Preferred Securities were sold in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and have not been registered under the Act. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I used the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities to purchase Junior Subordinated Debentures (the “Debentures”) of the Company which have terms identical to the Trust Preferred Securities. At June 30, 2024, the Debentures carried an interest rate of 8.35%. The balance of the Debentures outstanding was $7.2 million at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. The Company used its net proceeds for working capital and investment in its subsidiaries.

In connection with the October 2013 Ozarks Legacy Community Financial, Inc. (OLCF) merger, the Company assumed $3.1 million in floating rate junior subordinated debt securities. The debt securities had been issued in June 2005 by OLCF in connection with the sale of trust preferred securities, bear interest at a floating rate based on SOFR, are now redeemable at par, and mature in 2035. At June 30, 2024, the current rate was 8.05%. The carrying value of the debt securities was approximately $2.8 million at June 30, 2024 and $2.7 million at June 30, 2023, respectively.

In connection with the August 2014 Peoples Service Company, Inc. (PSC) merger, the Company assumed $6.5 million in floating rate junior subordinated debt securities. The debt securities had been issued in 2005 by PSC’s subsidiary bank holding company, Peoples Banking Company, in connection with the sale of trust preferred securities, bear interest at a floating rate based on SOFR, are now redeemable at par, and mature in 2035. At June 30, 2024, the current rate was 7.40%. The carrying value of the debt securities was approximately $5.6 million and $5.5 million at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The Company’s investment at a face amount of $505,000 in these trusts is included with Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets in the consolidated balance sheets, and was carried at a value of $467,000 at June 30, 2024.

In connection with the February 2022 Fortune merger, the Company assumed $7.5 million in fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes. The notes had been issued in May 2021 by Fortune to a multi-lender group, bear interest through May 2026 at a fixed rate of 4.5%, and will bear interest thereafter at SOFR plus 3.77%. The notes will be redeemable at par beginning in May 2026, and mature in May 2031. The carrying value of the notes was approximately $7.6 million and $7.7 million at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

NOTE8: Employee Benefits

401(k) Retirement Plan. The Bank has a 401(k) retirement plan that covers substantially all eligible employees. The Bank makes “safe harbor” matching contributions of up to 4% of eligible compensation, depending upon the percentage of eligible pay deferred into the plan by the employee. Additional profit-sharing contributions of 5% of eligible salary have been accrued for the plan year ended June 30, 2024, which the board of directors authorizes based on management recommendations and financial performance for fiscal 2024. Total 401(k) expense for fiscal 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $2.8 million, $2.4 million, and $1.9 million, respectively. At June 30, 2024, 401(k) plan participants held approximately 412,000 shares of the Company’s stock in the plan. Employee deferrals and safe harbor contributions are fully vested. Profit-sharing or other contributions vest over a period offive years.

2008 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company adopted an Equity Incentive Plan (the EIP) in 2008, reserving for award 132,000 shares (split-adjusted). EIP shares were available for award to directors, officers, and employees of the Company and its affiliates by a committee of outside directors. The committee held the power to set vesting requirements for each award under the EIP. At the 2017 annual meeting, shareholders approved the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which provided that no further awards would be made under the EIP. From fiscal 2012 through fiscal 2017, the Company awarded 122,803 shares, andno awards were made under the plan since fiscal 2017. All EIP awards were in the form of either restricted stock vesting at the rate of 20% of such shares per year, or performance-based restricted stock vesting at up to of 20% of such shares per year, contingent on the achievement of specified profitability targets over a three-year period. During fiscal 2024 and 2023, there wereno EIP shares vested, while during fiscal 2022 there were 2,250 EIP shares (split-adjusted) that vested. Compensation expense, in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, is recognized pro-rata over the five years during which the shares vest. There wasno EIP expense for fiscal 2024 and 2023, and for fiscal 2022, EIP expense was $46,000. At June 30, 2024, no awards remained outstanding, and there wasno unvested compensation expense related to the EIP.

2003 Stock Option Plan. The Company adopted a stock option plan in October 2003 (the 2003 Plan). Under the plan, the Company granted options to purchase 242,000 shares (split-adjusted) to employees and directors, of which, options to purchase 197,000 shares (split-adjusted) have been exercised, and options to purchase 45,000 shares (split-adjusted) have been forfeited. Under the 2003 Plan, exercised options may be issued from either authorized but unissued shares, or treasury shares. At the 2017 annual meeting, shareholders approved the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which provided that no further awards would be made under the 2003 Plan.

As of June 30, 2024, no options remained outstanding and there wasno remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the 2003 Plan. No options to purchase shares were vested in fiscal 2024, 2023 or 2022. There were 10,000 shares exercised in fiscal 2024, andnone were exercised in fiscal 2023 or 2022.

2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Company adopted an equity-based incentive plan in October 2017 (the 2017 Plan). Under the 2017 plan, the Company reserved for issuance 500,000 shares of common stock for awards to employees and directors, against which full value awards (stock-based awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights) are to be counted on a 2.5-for-1 basis. The 2017 Plan authorized awards to be made to employees, officers, and directors by a committee of outside directors. The committee held the power to set vesting requirements for each award under the 2017 Plan. Under the 2017 Plan, stock awards and shares issued pursuant to exercised options may be issued from either authorized but unissued shares, or treasury shares.

Under the 2017 Plan, as of June 30, 2024, options to purchase 161,500 shares have been granted to employees and directors, of which 6,000 options have been exercised,15,000 have been forfeited, and 140,500 remain outstanding. As of June 30, 2024, there was $1.0 million in remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the 2017 Plan, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period. The aggregate intrinsic value of in-the-money stock options outstanding under the 2017 Plan at June 30, 2024, was $704,000, and 12,600 options were exercisable and out-of-the-money at June 30, 2024, with a strike price in excess of the market price. The intrinsic value of options vested in fiscal 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $126,000, $42,000, and $150,000, respectively.

Full value awards totaling 26,600,28,650, and 22,350 shares, respectively, were issued to employees and directors in fiscal 2024, 2023, and 2022. All full value awards were in the form of either:

●restricted stock vesting at the rate of one-fifth of such shares per year,
●performance-based restricted stock vesting at up to 20% of such shares per year, contingent on the achievement of specified profitability targets over a trailing three-year period, or
●restricted stock vesting at the rate of one-third of such shares per year,
●restricted stock vesting after a three-year service requirement.

During fiscal 2024, 2023, and 2022, full value awards of 16,624,15,140, and 12,860 shares were vested, respectively. Compensation expense, in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, is recognized pro-rata over the vesting period. Compensation expense for full value awards under the 2017 Plan for fiscal 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $903,000, $833,000, and $548,000, respectively. At June 30, 2024, unvested compensation expense related to full value awards under the 2017 Plan was approximately $2.5 million.

NOTE11: Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Capital

The Company and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory – and possibly additional discretionary – actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company and the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under U.S. GAAP, regulatory reporting requirements and regulatory capital standards. The Company and Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Furthermore, the Company and Bank’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

Quantitative measures established by regulatory capital standards to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total capital, Tier 1 capital (as defined), and common equity Tier 1 capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average total assets (as defined). Additionally, to make distributions or discretionary bonus payments, the Company and Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets. Management believes, as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

In August 2020, the Federal banking agencies adopted a final rule updating a December 2018 rule regarding the impact on regulatory capital of adoption of the CECL standard. The rule now allows institutions that adopt the CECL standard in 2020 a five-year transition period to recognize the estimated impact of adoption on regulatory capital. The Company and the Bank elected to exercise the option to recognize the impact of adoption over the five-year period.

As of June 30, 2024, the most recent notification from the Federal banking agencies categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, common equity Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

The tables below summarize the Company and Bank’s actual and required regulatory capital:

The Bank’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock to the Company is restricted to maintain adequate capital as shown in the above tables. Additionally, prior regulatory approval is required for the declaration of any dividends generally in excess of the sum of net income for that calendar year and retained net income for the preceding two calendar years. At June 30, 2024, approximately $30.2 million of the equity of the Bank was available for distribution as dividends to the Company without prior regulatory approval.

NOTE12: Commitments and Contingencies

Standby Letters of Credit. In the normal course of business, the Company issues various financial standby, performance standby, and commercial letters of credit for its customers. As consideration for the letters of credit, the institution charges letter of credit fees based on the face amount of the letters and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. These letters of credit are stand­alone agreements, and are unrelated to any obligation the depositor has to the Company.

Standby letters of credit are irrevocable conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Financial standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing and similar transactions. Performance standby letters of credit are issued to guarantee performance of certain customers under non-financial contractual obligations. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

The Company had total outstanding standby letters of credit amounting to $6.2 million at June 30, 2024, and $7.1 million at June 30, 2023, with terms ranging from 12 to 24 months. At June 30, 2024, the Company’s deferred revenue under standby letters of credit agreements was nominal.

Off-balance-sheet and Credit Risk. The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect various financial instruments to extend credit to meet the financing needs of its customers.

These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. Lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates. Since a portion of the line may expire without being drawn upon, the total unused lines do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer’s creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate. Management uses the same credit policies in granting lines of credit as it does for on balance sheet instruments.

The Company had $898.6 million in commitments to extend credit at June 30, 2024, and $912.0 million at June 30, 2023.

At June 30, 2024, total commitments to originate fixed-rate loans with terms in excess of one year were $159.3 million at rates ranging from 4.95% to 9.00%, with a weighted-average rate of 7.04%. Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include exposure to some credit loss in the event of nonperformance of the customer. The Company’s policies for credit commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extension of credit that are recorded in the balance sheet. The commitments extend over varying periods of time with the majority being disbursed within athirty-day period.

The Company originates collateralized commercial, real estate, and consumer loans to customers in Missouri, Arkansas, and Illinois. Although the Company has a diversified portfolio, loans aggregating $1.5 billion at June 30, 2024, are secured by single and multi-family residential real estate generally located in the Company’s primary lending area.* *

Legal proceedings. Periodically, there have been various claims and lawsuits involving the Company or the Bank, mainly as defendants, such as claims to enforce liens, condemnation proceedings on properties in which the Company or the Bank holds security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans and other activities incident to the Company’s or the Bank’s business. Aside from such pending claims and lawsuits, which are incident to the conduct of the Company’s or the Bank’s ordinary business, the Company and the Bank are not parties to any material pending legal proceedings which, in the pinion of management, are expected to have a material effect on the financial condition or operations of the Company.

NOTE 14: Business Combinations

On January 20, 2023, the Company completed the merger with Citizens and its wholly owned subsidiary, Citizens Bank and Trust Company (“Citizens Bank”), in a stock and cash transaction. In late February 2023, the Company merged Citizens Bank with and into the Bank, coincident to the data systems conversion. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred$95,000 and$4.9 million, respectively, of third-party acquisition-related costs, which are included in noninterest expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values on the date of the acquisition. Based on preliminary valuations of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the purchase price for the Citizens merger is detailed in the following table. If, prior to the end of the one-year measurement period for finalizing the purchase price allocation, information becomes available about facts and circumstances that existed as of the merger date, which would indicate adjustments are required to the purchase price allocation, such adjustments will be included in the purchase price allocation retrospectively.

Of the total purchase price,$22.1 million was allocated to core deposit intangible, and will be amortized overten years on a straight line basis,$2.6 million was allocated to the intangible related to the acquired trust and wealth management business line and will be amortized overten years on a straight line basis, and$23.4 million was allocated to goodwill. None of the purchase price is deductible. Goodwill is attributable to synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Bank and Citizens Bank. To the extent that management revises any of the fair value of the above fair value adjustments as a result of continuing evaluation, the amount of goodwill recorded in the merger will change.

The Company acquired the$461.5 million loan portfolio at an estimated fair value discount of$14.1 million. The excess of expected cash flows above the fair value of the performing portion of loans will be accreted to interest income over the remaining lives of the loans in accordance with ASC 310-30. Loans acquired that were not subject to guidance relating to PCD loans include loans with a fair value and gross contractual amounts receivable of$419.5. million and$520.0 million at the date of acquisition. Management identified 48 PCD loans, with a book balance of$27.5 million, associated with the Citizens merger(ASC 310-30).

The Company utilized an outside valuation expert to estimate the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities. This work related primarily to loans, the core deposit intangible, and the intangible related to the acquired trust and wealth management business line.

The acquired business contributed revenues of$18.6 million and earnings of$2.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, and revenues of$11.6 million and earnings of$3.3 million for the period from January 20, 2023 through June 30, 2023.

NOTE15: Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in active markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Recurring Measurements. The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the year ended June 30, 2024.

Available-for-sale Securities. When quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated using pricing models, or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. For these securities, our Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Derivative financial instruments. The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate swaps on loans accounted for as fair value hedges. The fair value of interest rate swaps was determined by discounting the expected cash flows of the interest rate swaps. This valuation reflects the contractual terms of the interest rate swaps, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs. The inputs used to value the Company’s interest rate swaps fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and as a result, the interest rate swaps were categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. See information regarding the Company’s derivative financial agreements in Note 16: Derivative Financial Instruments of these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Mortgage servicing rights: The Company records MSR at fair value on a recurring basis with subsequent remeasurement of MSR based on change in fair value. An estimate of the fair value of the Company’s MSR is

determined by utilizing assumptions about factors such as mortgage interest rates, discount rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds, market trends and industry demand. All of the Company’s MSR are classified as Level 3.

Nonrecurring Measurements. The following tables present the fair value measurement of assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and the level within the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fell at June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The following is a description of valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarch. For assets classified within Level 3 of fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value process is described below.

Foreclosed and Repossessed Assets Held for Sale. Foreclosed and repossessed assets held for sale are valued at the time the loan is foreclosed upon or collateral is repossessed and the asset is transferred to foreclosed or repossessed assets held for sale. The value of the asset is based on third party or internal appraisals, less estimated costs to sell and appropriate discounts, if any. The appraisals are generally discounted based on current and expected market conditions that may impact the sale or value of the asset and management’s knowledge and experience with similar assets. Such discounts typically may be significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value of these assets. Foreclosed and repossessed assets held for sale are continually evaluated for additional impairment and are adjusted accordingly if impairment is identified.

Collateral-Dependent Loans. The Company records collateral-dependent loans as Nonrecurring Level 3. If a loan’s fair value as estimated by the Company is less than its carrying value, the Company either records a charge-off of the portion of the loan that exceeds the fair value or establishes a reserve within the allowance for credit losses specific to the loan.

Unobservable (Level 3) Inputs. The following table presents quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in recurring and nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements at June 30, 2024 and 2023.

**NOTE****16:**Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company enters into derivative financial instruments, primarily interest rate swaps, to convert certain long term fixed rate loans to floating rates to manage interest rate risk, facilitate asset/liability management strategies and manage other exposures. The fair value of derivative positions outstanding is included in other assets and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and in the net change in each of these line items in the operating section of the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. The unrealized gains and losses, representing the change in fair value of the derivative is being recorded in interest income in the consolidated statements of income. The ineffective portions of the unrealized gains or losses, if any, are recorded in interest income and interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.

The Company executedtwo interest rate swaps, designated as fair value hedges, with an original notional amounts of$20.0 million each, for a total of$40.0 million, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, to convert certain long-term fixed rate 1-4 family loans to floating rates to hedge interest rate risk exposure. The portfolio layer method is being used, which allows the Company to designate a stated amount of the assets that are not expected to be affected by prepayments, defaults or other factors that could affect the timing and amount of the cash flow, as the hedged item. The effect of the swaps on loan interest income in the income statement during the year ended June 30, 2024 was not significant.

The notional amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s interest rate swaps at June 30, 2024 are presented in the table below. There wereno interest rate swaps at June 30, 2023.
