CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this quarterly report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include statements relating to our plans, strategies and expectations, the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and our future financial results, near-term loan growth, net interest margin, mortgage banking profits, wealth management fees, expenses, asset quality, capital levels, continued earnings, and liquidity. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "may," "will," "should," "could," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "anticipate," "project," "plan" or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are frequently based on assumptions that may or may not materialize and are subject to numerous uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or projected and which could materially and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition or prospects include, but are not limited to:

the strength of the local, state, national and international economies (including effects of inflationary pressures and supply chain constraints);
the economic impact of any future terrorist threats and attacks, widespread disease or pandemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States), acts of war or other threats thereof, or other adverse external events that could cause economic deterioration or instability in credit markets, and the response of the local, state and national governments to any such adverse external events;
our asset quality and any loan charge-offs;
the composition of our loan portfolio;
environmental liability associated with our lending activities;
the effects of changes in interest rates on our net interest income, net interest margin, our investments, our loan originations, and our modeling estimates relating to interest rate changes;
changes in and uncertainty related to benchmark interest rates used to price our loans, including the elimination of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”);
our access to sources of liquidity and capital to address our liquidity needs;
our inability to receive dividends from the Bank, pay dividends to our common stockholders or satisfy obligations as they become due;
the effects of problems encountered by other financial institutions;
our ability to achieve organic loan and deposit growth and the composition of such growth;
our ability to attract and retain skilled employees or changes in our management personnel;
any failure or interruption of our information and communications systems;
our ability to identify and address cybersecurity risks;
the effects of the failure of any component of our business infrastructure provided by a third party;
our ability to keep pace with technological changes;
our ability to successfully develop and commercialize new or enhanced products and services;
current and future business, economic and market conditions in the United States (“U.S.”) generally or in the States of Illinois and Iowa in particular;
the geographic concentration of our operations in the States of Illinois and Iowa;
our ability to effectively compete with other financial services companies and the effects of competition in the financial services industry on our business;
our ability to attract and retain customer deposits;
our ability to maintain the Bank’s reputation;
possible impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets;
the impact of, and changes in applicable laws, regulations and accounting standards and policies;
our prior status as an S corporation;
possible changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies of, and other activities undertaken by, governments, agencies, central banks and similar organizations;
the effectiveness of our risk management and internal disclosure controls and procedures;
market perceptions associated with certain aspects of our business;
our ability to meet our obligations as a public company, including our obligations under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

damage to our reputation from any of the factors described above;
our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items; and
the factors discussed in “Risk Factors”, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" or elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange (“SEC”) Commission on March 11, 2022.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement in the future, or to reflect circumstances and events that occur after the date on which the forward-looking statement was made.

Accordingly, all share and per share amounts for all periods presented in these financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively, where applicable, to reflect the stock split.2022.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

On September 13, 2019, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the SEC. The Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on October 10, 2019. The Company issued and sold 9,429,794 shares of common stock at a price of $16 per share pursuant to that Registration Statement. Total proceeds received by the Company, net of offering costs, were approximately $138 million.

Income Taxes

Through October 10, 2019, the Company, with the consent of its stockholders, elected to be taxed under sections of federal and state income tax law as an "S Corporation" which provides that, in lieu of Company income taxes, except for state replacement and franchise taxes, the stockholders separately account for their pro rata shares of the Company’s items of income, deductions, losses and credits. As a result of this election, no income taxes, other than state replacement and franchise taxes, have been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. No provision has been made for any amounts which may be advanced or paid as dividends to the stockholders to assist them in paying their personal taxes on the income from the Company.

Effective October 11, 2019, in connection with the initial public offering, the Company revoked its S Corporation status and became a taxable entity (C Corporation). As such, any periods prior to October 11, 2019 will only reflect an effective state income tax rate. In connection with the conversion of tax status, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset of approximately $0.5 million, income tax benefit of approximately $3.3 million, and a reduction in accumulated other comprehensive income of approximately $2.7 million.

The Company files consolidated federal and state income tax returns. The Company is no longer subject to federal or state income tax examinations for years prior to 2016.

Pro Forma Income Statement Information

The pro forma C Corp equivalent income tax expense information gives effect to the income tax expense had the Company been a C Corporation during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The pro forma C Corp equivalent net income information, therefore, includes an adjustment for income tax expense as if the Company had been a C Corporation during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share information is computed using the pro forma C Corp equivalent net income and weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. There were no dilutive instruments outstanding during 2019, therefore, the pro forma C Corp equivalent basic and diluted earnings per share amounts are the same.

Segment Reporting

The Company’s operations consist of one reportable segment called community banking.segment. The operations of the non-bank subsidiaries of the Company primarily supportCompany’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the operations of the Banks.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016‑02, Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance in this ASU, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee`s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new lease guidance also simplified the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted this standard without a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)(“FASB”) issued ASU 2016‑13, 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016‑132016-13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, ASU 2016‑132016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities available-for-sale and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016‑132016-13 is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2021,2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for years beginning after December 31, 2018, including interim periods within those years.

The Company is currently evaluatinghas formed an implementation team to assess the effectimpact that this standardASU 2016-13 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. For the majority of loans evaluated on a pooled basis, the Company anticipates using a discounted cash flow method which considers instrument level cash flows adjusted for, among other factors, prepayment speeds, probability of default, and loss given default. The Company also anticipates using regression analysis of historical internal and peer data to determine which variables are best suited to be economic variables utilized when modeling lifetime probability of default and loss given default.

The ultimate impact to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations of ASU 2016-13, at both adoption and financial position.each subsequent reporting period, is highly dependent on credit quality, macroeconomic forecasts and conditions, the composition of our loan and  securities portfolios, along with other management judgments.

This ASU  2017-04 simplifies measurement of goodwill and eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the ASU  2017-04, a company should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The impairment charge is limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The amendments in this update are effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in years beginning after December 15, 2021,2022, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.

NOTE 3 – SECURITIES

Securities as shown in these consolidated financial statements reflect revised categories as required by the Company’s adoption of ASU 2016‑01 on January 1, 2018. That new guidance refined the definition of equity securities and required their segregation from debt securities available-for-sale.

While changes in the fair value of debt securities available-for-sale continue to be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), the new guidance requires changes in the fair value of equity securities to be recorded in current earnings. As required by the new guidance, the unrealized gain in fair value on equity securities (recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2017) was reclassified to retained earnings on January 1, 2018. The amount of the reclassification was $122,000.

As of September 30, 2019,2022, there were 74183 debt securities in an unrealized loss position for a period of twelve months or more, and 36641 debt securities in an unrealized loss position for a period of less than twelve months. These unrealized losses are primarily a result of fluctuations in market interest rates in the bond market.rates. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the debt securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and industry analysts’ reports. Management believes that all declines in value of these debt securities are deemed to be temporary.

There were no sales of debt securities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Equity Securities

Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in gains (losses) on securities on the consolidated statements of income.

The Company has elected to measure equity securities with no readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes for identical or similar securities of the same issuer.

The initial cost and carrying values of equity securities, with cumulative net unrealized gains and losses are as follows:

There have been no impairments or upward adjustments based on observable price changes to equity securities with no readily determinable fair value.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had no loans that were granted a payment modification due to a COVID-19 related financial hardship which had not returned to regular payments. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $0.2 million of loans that were granted a payment modification due to a COVID-19 related financial hardship and had not returned to regular payments.

The debentures are unsecured and rank junior and subordinate in the right of payment to all senior debt of the Company.

The trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.

Investment Securities

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of securities; such items are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For the Company’s securities where quoted prices are not available for identical securities in an active market, the Company determines fair value utilizing vendors who apply matrix pricing for similar bonds where no price is observable or may compile prices from various sources. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including time value, yield curve, volatility factors, prepayment speeds, default rates, loss severity, current market and contractual prices for the underlying financial instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace. Fair values from these models are verified, where possible, against quoted market prices for recent trading activity of assets with similar characteristics to the security being valued. Such methods are generally classified as Level 2. However,2; however, when prices from

independent sources vary, cannot be obtained or cannot be corroborated, a security is generally classified as Level 3. The change in fair value of debt securities available-for-sale is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.income (loss). The change in fair value of equity securities with readily determinable fair values is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of income.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest rate swap agreements are carried at fair value as determined by dealer valuation models. Based on the inputs used, the derivative financial instruments subjected to recurring fair value adjustments are classified as Level 2. For derivative financial instruments designated as a hedging instruments, the change in fair value is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.income (loss). For derivative financial instruments not designated as a hedging instruments, the change in fair value is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of income.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

The Company has elected to record its mortgage servicing rights at fair value. Mortgage servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, the Company determines the fair value of mortgage servicing rights by estimating the fair value of the future cash flows associated with the mortgage loans being serviced as calculated by an independent third party. Key economic assumptions used in measuring the fair value of mortgage servicing rights include, but are not limited to, prepayment speeds and discount rates. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, mortgage servicing rights are classified inas Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.3. The change in fair value is recorded through an adjustment to the consolidated statement of income.

Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis; however, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as there is evidence of impairment or a change in the amount of previously recognized impairment.

Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans originated and held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. The Company obtains quotes or bids on these loans directly from purchasing financial institutions. Typically, these quotes include a premium on the sale and thus these quotes indicate fair value of the held for sale loans is greater than cost.

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans

In accordance with the provisions of the loan impairment guidance, impairment was measured for loans with respect to which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans is estimated based on the fair value of the underlying collateral supporting the loan. Collateral-dependent impaired loans require classification in the fair value hierarchy. Impaired loans include loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on customized discounting criteria.

Bank Premises Held for Sale

Bank premises held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling costs, at the date classified as held for sale. Values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals and customized discounting criteria. The carrying value of bank premises held for sale is not re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis but is subject to fair value adjustments when the carrying value exceeds the fair value, less estimated selling costs.

Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed assets are recorded at fair value based on property appraisals, less estimated selling costs, at the date of the transfer. Subsequent to the transfer, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling costs. Values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals and customized discounting criteria. The carrying value of foreclosed assets is not re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis but is subject to fair value adjustments when the carrying value exceeds the fair value, less estimated selling costs.

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans, Bank Premises Held for Sale, and Foreclosed Assets

The estimated fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans, bank premises held for sale, and foreclosed assets is based on the appraised fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell. Collateral-dependent impaired loans, bank premises held for sale, and foreclosed assets are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company considers the appraisal or a similar evaluation as the starting point for determining fair value and then considers other factors and events in the environment that may affect the fair value. Appraisals or a similar evaluation of the collateral underlying collateral-dependent loans and foreclosed assets are obtained at the time a loan is first considered impaired or a loan is transferred to foreclosed assets. Appraisals or a similar evaluation of bank premises held for sale are obtained when first classified as held for sale. Appraisals or similar evaluations are obtained subsequently as deemed necessary by management but at least annually on foreclosed assets and bank premises held for sale. Appraisals are reviewed for accuracy and consistency by management. Appraisals are performed by individuals selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management. The appraised values are reduced by discounts to consider lack of marketability and estimated costs to sell. These discounts and estimates are developed by management by comparison to historical results.

Other Fair Value Methods

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures of its other financial instruments. There were no changes in the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

Interest-bearing Time Deposits with Banks

The carrying values of interest-bearing time deposits with banks approximate their fair values.

38

Table of Contents

HBT FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Restricted Stock

The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.

Loans

The fair value estimation process for the loan portfolio uses an exit price concept and reflects discounts the Company believes are consistent with discounts in the market place.marketplace. Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial and industrial, agricultural and farmland, commercial real estate - owner occupied, commercial real estate - non-owner occupied, multi-family, construction and land development, one-to-four family residential, and municipal, consumer, and other. The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for similar maturities. The fair value analysis also includes other assumptions to estimate fair value, intended to approximate those a market participant would use in an orderly transaction, with adjustments for discount rates, interest rates, liquidity, and credit spreads, as appropriate.

Investments in Unconsolidated Subsidiaries

The fair values of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries are presumed to approximate carrying amounts.

47

Table of Contents

HBT FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Time Deposits

Fair values of certificates of deposit with stated maturities have been estimated using the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at rates currently offered for similar instruments. Time deposits also include public funds time deposits.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

The fair values of repurchase agreements with variable interest rates are presumed to approximate their recorded carrying amounts.

Subordinated Notes

The fair values of subordinated notes are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on rates observed on recent debt issuances by other financial institutions.

Junior Subordinated Debentures

The fair values of subordinated debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on rates observed on recent debt issuances by other financial institutions.

Accrued Interest

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

Limitations

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

NOTE 1614 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Financial Instruments

The Banks areBank is party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Banks’Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Banks useBank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as they doit does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Banks evaluateBank evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, by the BanksBank upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include real estate, accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and income-producing properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the BanksBank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support extensions of credit. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Banks secureBank secures the standby letters of credit with the same collateral used to secure the related loan.

Legal Contingencies

Various legal claims arise from time to time inIn the normal course of business, which,the Company, or its subsidiaries, are involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, willany liability resulting from pending proceedings would not be expected to have noa material adverse effect on the Company’sCompany's consolidated financial statements.

DeBaere, et al v. Heartland Bank and Trust Company

The Bank is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit filed in June 2020, in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, DeBaere, et al v. Heartland Bank and Trust Company. The plaintiff, a customer of the Bank, alleges that the Bank breached its contract with the plaintiff by (1) charging multiple insufficient funds fees or overdraft fees on a single customer-initiated transaction, and (2) charging overdraft fees for transactions that were authorized on a positive account balance, but when settled, settled into a negative balance.

The Bank intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit. The Company does not believe a loss is probable at this time, as that term is used in assessing loss contingencies. Accordingly, consistent with the authoritative guidance in the evaluation of contingencies, an accrual related to this matter has not been recorded. However, an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, and the Company would not characterize the chance of any loss as “remote.” Given the early stage of this case, the Company cannot yet offer an opinion on the estimated range of any possible loss, in the event of an unfavorable opinion.

Miller, et al v. State Bank of Lincoln and Heartland Bank and Trust Company

The Bank is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit filed in May 2020, in the Circuit Court of Logan County, Illinois, Miller, et al v. State Bank of Lincoln and the Bank. The plaintiff, a customer of State Bank of Lincoln, which previously merged with the Bank, alleges that the Bank breached its contract with the plaintiff by charging multiple insufficient funds fees or overdraft fees on a single customer-initiated transaction.

The Bank intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit. The Company does not believe a loss is probable at this time, as that term is used in assessing loss contingencies. Accordingly, consistent with the authoritative guidance in the evaluation of contingencies, an accrual related to this matter has not been recorded. However, an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, and the Company would not characterize the chance of any loss as “remote.” Given the early stage of this case, the Company cannot yet offer an opinion on the estimated range of any possible loss, in the event of an unfavorable opinion.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this quarterly report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include statements relating to our future plans, strategies and expectations, as well as our future revenues, expenses, earnings, losses, financial performance, financial condition, asset quality metrics and future prospects. Forward looking statements are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "may," "will," "should," "could," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "anticipate," "project," "plan" or similar expressions. Forward looking statements are frequently based on assumptions that may or may not materialize and are subject to numerous uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or projected and which could materially and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition or prospects include, but are not limited to: our asset quality and any loan charge-offs; the composition of our loan portfolio; time and effort necessary to resolve nonperforming assets; environmental liability associated with our lending activities; the effects of the current low interest rate environment or changes in interest rates on our net interest income, net interest margin, our investments, and our loan originations, and our modeling estimates relating to interest rate changes; our access to sources of liquidity and capital to address our liquidity needs; our inability to receive dividends from our Banks, pay dividends to our common stockholders or satisfy obligations as they become due; the effects of problems encountered by other financial institutions; our ability to achieve organic loan and deposit growth and the composition of such growth; our ability to attract and retain skilled employees or changes in our management personnel; any failure or interruption of our information and communications systems; our ability to identify and address cybersecurity risks; the effects of the failure of any component of our business infrastructure provided by a third party; our ability to keep pace with technological changes; our ability to successfully develop and commercialize new or enhanced products and services; current and future business, economic and market conditions in the United States generally or in Illinois in particular; the geographic concentration of our operations in the State of Illinois; our ability to effectively compete with other financial services companies and the effects of competition in the financial services industry on our business; our ability to attract and retain customer deposits; our ability to maintain our Banks' reputations; possible impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets; the impact of, and changes in applicable laws, regulations and accounting standards and policies; our prior status as an S Corp; possible changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies of, and other activities undertaken by, governments, agencies, central banks and similar organizations; the effectiveness of our risk management and internal disclosure controls and procedures; market perceptions associated with certain aspects of our business; the one-time and incremental costs of operating as a standalone public company; our ability to meet our obligations as a public company, including our obligations under Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley; and damage to our reputation from any of the factors described above, in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" or elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

42

These risks and uncertainties, as well as the factors discussed under "Risk Factors," should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement in the future, or to reflect circumstances and events that occur after the date on which the forward-looking statement was made.

NXT Bancorporation, Inc. Acquisition

On October 1, 2021, HBT Financial completed its acquisition of NXT Bancorporation, Inc. (“NXT”), the holding company for NXT Bank. The acquisition expanded HBT Financial’s footprint into Eastern Iowa with four locations that began operating as branches of Heartland Bank following the merger and system conversion of NXT Bank into Heartland Bank in December 2021. After considering business combination accounting adjustments, NXT added total assets of $234.1 million, total loans of $194.6 million, and total deposits of $181.6 million.

Cash consideration of $10.6 million and stock consideration of approximately 1.8 million shares of HBT Financial common stock resulted in aggregate consideration of $39.9 million. Goodwill of $5.7 million was recorded in the acquisition.

The Lincoln Acquisition was accounted for as a change in reporting entityacquisition of NXT provides an opportunity to utilize HBT Financial’s existing excess liquidity to replace NXT’s higher cost funding. Additionally, our broader range of products and accordingly, asservices and greater ability to meet larger borrowing needs provides an opportunity to expand NXT customer relationships.

FACTORS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Economic Conditions

The Company's business and financial performance are affected by economic conditions generally in the United StatesU.S. and more directly in the Illinois and Iowa markets where we primarily operate. The significant economic factors that are most relevant to our business and our financial performance include the general economic conditions in the U.S. and in the Company's markets (including the effect of inflationary pressures and supply chain constraints), unemployment rates, real estate markets, and interest rates.

COVID-19 Pandemic

Although the Company has had continuous business operations since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the pandemic has caused significant economic disruption throughout the U.S. and the communities that we serve. While the economic outlook has generally improved relative to 2020 and 2021, there remains uncertainty surrounding the longer lasting impact on specific industries and potential surges in COVID-19 infections with new virus variants. As a result, the businesses we serve may be adversely impacted, and the ability of our customers to fulfill their contractual obligations to us may deteriorate.

Interest Rates

Net interest income is our primary source of revenue. Net interest income equalsis equal to the excess of interest income earned on interest earning assets (including discount accretion on purchased loans plus certain loan fees) over interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. The level of interest rates as well as the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearinginterest-bearing liabilities both impact net interest income. These factors areNet interest income is also influenced by both the pricing and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which, in turn, are impacted by external factors such as local economic conditions, competition for loans and deposits, the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) and market interest rates.

43

The cost of our deposits and short-term wholesale borrowings is largely based on short-term interest rates, which are primarily driven by the Federal Reserve Board’sFRB’s actions. The yields generated by our loans and securities are typically driven by short-term and long-term interest rates, which are set by the market and, to some degree, by the Federal Reserve Board’sFRB’s actions. The level ofOur net interest income is therefore influenced by movements in such interest rates and the pace at which such movements occur. During 2019, overallGenerally, we expect increases in market interest rates started to decline. The Federal Open Markets Committee lowered Federal Funds target rates for the first time in 11 years on July 31, 2019 and then again in September 2019 and October 2019, for a combined decrease of 75 basis points, which we expect to continue to put downwards pressure onwill increase our net interest margin. In general, we believe that rate increases will lead to improvedincome and net interest marginsmargin in future periods, while rate decreases will result in lowermarket interest rates may decrease our net interest margins.income and net interest margin in future periods.

Credit Trends

We focus on originating loans with appropriate risk / risk/reward profiles. We have a detailed Loan Policyloan policy that guides our overall loan origination philosophy and a well-established loan approval process that requires experienced credit officers to approve larger loan relationships. Although we believe our loan approval process and credit review process is a strengthprocesses are strengths that allowsallow us to maintain a high quality loan portfolio, we recognize that credit trends in the markets in which we operate and in our loan portfolio can materially impact our financial condition and performance and that these trends are primarily driven by the economic conditions in our markets.

55

Competition

Our profitability and growth are affected by the highly competitive nature of the financial services industry. We compete with community banks in all of our markets and, to a lesser extent, with money center banks, primarily in the Chicago MSA. Additionally, we compete with non-bank financial services companies, FinTechs and other financial institutions operating within the areas we serve. We seek to meet our competitioncompete by emphasizing personalized service and efficient decision-making tailored to individual needs. We do not rely on any individual, group, or entity for a material portion of our loans or our deposits. Recently, we have seenWe continue to see increased competitive pressures on loan rates and terms and increased competition for deposits. Continued loan and deposit pricing pressurewhich may affect our financial results in the future.

Digital Banking

Throughout the banking industry, in-person branch traffic is expected to continue to decline as more customers turn to digital banking for routine banking transactions. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated this transition, and in-person branch traffic is not expected to return to pre-pandemic levels. We plan to continue investing in our digital banking platforms, while maintaining an appropriately sized branch network. An inability to meet evolving customer expectations, with the appropriate level of security, for both digital and in-person banking may adversely affect our financial results in the future.

Regulatory Environment /and Trends

We are subject to extensivefederal and state regulation and supervision, which continue to evolve as the legal and regulatory framework governing our operations continues to change. The current operating environment also has heightened supervisory expectationsincludes extensive regulation and supervision in areas such as consumer compliance, the BSABank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering compliance, risk management and internal audit. We anticipate that this environment of heightened scrutinyextensive regulation and supervision will continue for the industry. As a result, of these heightened expectations, we expect to incurchanges in the regulatory environment may result in additional costs for additional compliance, risk management and audit personnel or professional fees associated with advisors and consultants.

Effective October 11, 2019, in connection with the initial public offering, the Company revoked its S Corporation status and became a taxable entity (C Corporation). As such, any periods prior to October 11, 2019 will only reflect an effective state income tax rate. In connection with the conversion of tax status, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset of approximately $0.5 million, income tax benefit of approximately $3.3 million, and a reduction in accumulated other comprehensive income of approximately  $2.7 million.

The C Corp equivalent rates also reflect Illinois Corporate Income and Corporate Replacement tax rates of 7.00% and 2.50%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Public Company Costs

Following the completion of the initial public offering, the Company expects to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company, hiring additional personnel, enhancing technology and expanding capabilities. The Company expects that these costs will include legal, regulatory, accounting, investor relations and other expenses that were not incurred as a private company. Sarbanes-Oxley and rules adopted by the SEC, the FDIC and national securities exchanges require public companies to implement specified corporate governance practices that were inapplicable as a private company.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 20192022 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 20182021

For the three months ended September 30, 2019,2022, net income was $17.4$15.6 million, decreasingincreasing by $0.2$1.9 million, or 0.9%13.9%, from the three months ended September 30, 2018. Netwhen compared to net income declined primarily due to a $0.8 million decline in the mortgage servicing rights fair value adjustment and a charge of $0.8 million associated with the termination of the supplemental executive retirement plan (SERP) included in the employee benefits expense, offset by increases in net interest income as a result of increases in asset yields. Provision expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $0.6 million lower than2021. Notable changes include the provision for the three months ended September 30, 2018.following:

A $6.7 million increase in net interest income, primarily attributable to higher average balances of interest-earning assets following the NXT acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021, a more favorable asset mix, and higher yields on interest-earning assets which more than offset a $2.9 million decrease in PPP loan fees recognized as loan interest income;
A provision for loan losses of $0.4 million was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a negative provision for loan losses of $1.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021;
A $1.8 million increase in noninterest expense, primarily reflecting a higher base level of noninterest expense following the NXT acquisition; and
A $0.9 million decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loans, primarily attributable to a lower level of mortgage refinancing activity due to increases in interest rates.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 20192022 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 20182021

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019,2022, net income was $50.8$43.3 million, decreasingincreasing by $1.1$0.6 million, or 2.1%1.5%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Netwhen compared to net income declined primarily due to a decline in the mortgage servicing rights fair value adjustment of $3.3 million and a charge of $4.2 million associated with the termination of the SERP included in the employee benefits expense, offset by increases in net interest income as a result of increases in asset yields. Provision expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $1.5 million higher than2021. Notable changes include the provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.following:

A $14.1 million increase in net interest income, primarily attributable to higher average balances of interest-earning assets following the NXT acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021, a more favorable asset mix, and higher yields on interest-earning assets which more than offset a $6.1 million decrease in PPP loan fees recognized as loan interest income;
A negative provision for loan losses of $0.1 million was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a negative provision for loan losses of $7.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021;
A $3.7 million decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loans, primarily attributable to a lower level of mortgage refinancing activity due to increases in interest rates; and
A $5.1 million increase in noninterest expense, primarily reflecting a higher base level of noninterest expense following the NXT acquisition.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income equals the excess of interest income on interest earning assets (including discount accretion on acquired loans)loans plus fees earned on interest earning assetscertain loan fees) over interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Interest rate spread and net interest margin are utilized to measure and explain changes in net interest income. Interest rate spread is the difference between the yield on interest-earning assets and the rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities that fund those assets. The net interest margin is expressed as the percentage of net interest income to average interest-earning assets. The net interest margin exceeds the interest rate spread because noninterest-bearing sources of funds, principally noninterest-bearing demand deposits and stockholders’ equity, also support interest-earning assets.

The following tables setsset forth average balances, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20192022 and 2018.2021. Average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccrual loans are included in the computation of average balances but have been reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees and costs,

47

discounts and premiums, as well as purchase accounting adjustments that are accreted or amortized to interest income or expense.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table sets forth the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major categories of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Information is provided for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with respect to changes attributable to changes in volume (i.e., changes in average balances multiplied by the prior-period average rate), and changes attributable to rate (i.e., changes in average rate multiplied by prior-period average balances). For purposes of

50

this table, changes attributable to both volume and rate that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 20192022 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 20182021

Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased $0.52022, was $37.4 million, increasing $6.7 million, or 1.7%21.7%, from the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is primarily attributable to $33.1higher average balances of interest-earnings assets following the NXT acquisition and a more favorable asset mix. These balance changes, as well as higher yields on interest-earning assets driven by recent increases in benchmark interest rates, more than offset a $2.9 million from $32.6 milliondecrease in PPP loan fees recognized as loan interest income.

Net interest margin increased to 3.65% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is primarily due2022 compared to increases in benchmark interest rates, which drove our loan and securities yields higher, and from organic loan growth, funded primarily through decreases in the securities portfolio, shifting our earning asset mix from the securities portfolio to the higher yielding loan portfolio. Net interest margin increased as well to 4.31%3.18% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared2021. The increase was primarily attributable to 4.22% fora more favorable mix of interest-earnings assets as well as higher yields on interest-earning assets. Additionally, the contribution of PPP loan fees to net interest margin decreased to 1 basis point during the three months ended September 30, 2018. The contribution of acquired loan discount accretion to net interest income declined to $0.3 million, or 42022 from 31 basis points of the net interest margin, forduring the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $0.8 million, or 11 basis points2021. This decrease was more than offset by an increase in contractual interest on loans, driven by recent increases in benchmark interest rates.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 20192022 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 20182021

AsIn March 2020, the chart above illustrates, net interest margin rose throughout 2018, peaked in the first quarter of 2019, and then declined in the second and third quarters of 2019. During 2019, overall market interest rates started to decline. The Federal Open Markets Committee (“FOMC”), in response to the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, lowered Federal Fundsthe target ratesrange for the first timefederal funds rate to 0% to 0.25% and announced the FRB would substantially increase its Treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities holdings. This resulted in 11 years on July 31, 2019a historically low interest rate environment which lasted through the rest of 2020 and then again in September 2019 and October 2019, for a combined decrease of 75 basis points which we expect to continue to put downwardsinto 2021, putting downward pressure on our net interest margin.

In 2021, the FOMC began to taper the pace of its security purchases, and, in March 2022, the FOMC raised the target range for the federal funds rate. Since March 2022, the FOMC has raised the target range for the federal funds rate several times, setting the target range for the federal funds rate to 3.75% to 4.00% at the November 2022 meeting, and indicated that the FRB will continue reducing its security holdings. Additionally, the FOMC indicated that it will take into account the cumulative tightening of monetary policy, the lags with which monetary policy affects economic activity and inflation, and economic and financial developments in determining the pace of future increases in the target range.

As a result of these developments, market interest rates have risen which has led to improvements in our net interest margin. In general, we believe that increases in market interest rates will lead to improved net interest margins while decreases in market interest rates will result in lower net interest margins. Additionally, these recent increases in market interest rates have increased competition for deposits. As a result, we expect  deposit costs to increase during the rest of 2022 and deposits balances may decrease and be replaced by higher cost funding sources, such as FHLB advances, brokered deposits, or other wholesale funding. Although funding costs are expected to increase during the remainder of 2022, such increased funding costs should be more than offset by continued increases in interest-earning asset yields resulting from the higher market interest rates.

Provision for Loan Losses

Provisions for loan losses which are charged to operations in order to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level we consider necessary to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. In determining the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers past and current loss experience, evaluations of collateral, current economic conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay a loan and the levels of nonperforming and other classified loans. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates and the ultimate losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available or as events change. We assess the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis and make provisions for loan losses in order to maintain the allowance. The provision for loan losses is a function of the allowance for loan loss methodology we use to determine the appropriate level of the allowance for inherent loan losses after accounting for net charge-offs have been deducted.(recoveries).

Credit losses in our loan portfolio are highly dependent on the economic conditions in the communities that we serve. The general deterioration in economic conditions initially caused by the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the communities that we serve beginning in 2020. As a result, our allowance for loan losses initially increased at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, remained elevated during the remainder of 2020, and then gradually returned to near pre-pandemic levels during 2021 as economic conditions improved in our market areas. Potential deterioration of economic conditions, whether due to the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors, may lead to higher credit losses and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses was $0.7of $0.4 million and $1.2 million forduring the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.2022, compared to a negative provision for loan losses of $1.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decreaseprovision during the three months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to a $128.1 million increase in loans, resulting in a $1.1 million increase in general reserves. Mostly offsetting this increase was a $0.7 million decrease in specific reserves on loans individually evaluated for impairment duringimpairment.

Comparison of the three months endedNine Months Ended September 30, 2019 compared2022 to an increase during the three months endedNine Months Ended September 30, 2018, as net charge-offs were comparable between the periods. 2021

The Company recorded a negative provision for loan losses was $3.3of $0.1 million and $1.8 million forduring the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, increasing primarily due2022, compared to slightly highera negative provision for loan losses of $7.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net charge-offs andrecoveries of $1.2 million were mostly offset by a larger$1.1 million increase in required reserves, which included a $0.8 million increase in specific reserves on loans individually evaluated for impairment over the respective nine month periods.impairment.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 20192022 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 20182021

Total noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 decreased by $0.82022, was $8.2 million, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 9.8%1.9%, to $7.6 million from $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease is primarily due to a $0.8 million larger decline2021. Notable changes in noninterest income include the mortgage servicing rights fair value adjustment and a $0.3 million decrease in title insurance activity driven by thefollowing:

A $0.9 million decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loans, primarily attributable to a lower level of mortgage refinancing activity due to recent interest rate increases;
A $0.6 million improvement in gains (losses) on other assets, as the 2021 results include impairment losses of $0.6 million related to branches closed during the third quarter of 2021, pursuant to our branch rationalization plan;
A $0.3 million increase in the mortgage servicing rights fair value adjustment, primarily resulting from slower mortgage prepayment speed assumptions; and
A $0.3 million increase in service charges on deposit accounts.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 20192022 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 20182021

Total noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $0.42022, was $24.0 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 1.7%8.3%, to $22.3 million from $21.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is primarily due to a $0.7 million increase2021. Notable changes in employee benefits driven by a $0.8 million charge duringnoninterest expense include the three months ended September 30, 2019 related to the termination of the SERP. This increase was partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in both FDIC insurance expense and in marketing and customer relations expense.following:

Following the NXT acquisition on October 1, 2021, there was a higher base level of noninterest expense, primarily related to personnel costs and branch operations; and
A $0.6 million increase in other noninterest expense, in part due to legal and professional fees related to the acquisition of Town and Country.

Routine salary increases were offset by a reduction in employee count as a result of the sale of First Community Title Services, Inc. and HBT Insurance during the first quarter of 2019. Salaries expense for First Community Title Services, Inc. and HBT Insurance was $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. There was no salaries expense for First Community Title Services, Inc. or HBT Insurance during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 20192022 to the ThreeNine Months Ended September 30, 20182021

Total noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $2.22022, was $72.0 million, an increase of $5.1 million, or 3.3%7.7%, to $69.1 million from $66.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is primarily due to a $3.6 million increase2021. Notable changes in employee benefits driven by a $4.2 million chargenoninterest expense include the following:

Following the NXT acquisition on October 1, 2021, there was a higher base level of noninterest expense, primarily related to personnel costs and branch operations;
The $1.7 million increase in employee benefits expenses also included accelerated recognition of $0.6 million of stock compensation expense during February 2022 as a result of a modification to all outstanding restricted stock unit and performance restricted stock unit agreements to address treatment upon retirement. Total compensation costs related to the modified agreements remains the same, and stock compensation expense in periods subsequent to the modification are reduced as a result. The net impact of the modification was a $0.5 million increase in stock compensation expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2022;
A $0.6 million increase in marketing expense, primarily due to variations in timing of marketing campaigns as well as a slightly higher marketing budget relative to 2021; and
A $0.4 million decrease in foreclosed asset expense, primarily due to fewer foreclosed properties held in 2022 relative to 2021.

Total assets were $3.17$4.21 billion at September 30, 2019,2022, a decrease of $83.0$100.9 million, or 2.6%2.3%, from December 31, 2018, primarily due to a decrease2021. Notable changes in our consolidated balance sheet include the securities portfolio. This decrease was partially offset by increases in the loan portfolio from organic loan growth.following:

Excess liquidity, including excess cash held at December 31, 2021, was reinvested into debt securities, which increased by $122.1 million, and loans held for investment which increased $80.2 million;
Loans increased by $80.2 million with growth in most of our geographic markets, which was partially offset by a $29.4 million decrease due to forgiveness of PPP loans;
Total deposits decreased by $94.7 million, primarily due to lower balances maintained in retail and business accounts;
Increases in market interest rates since December 31, 2021 drove a decrease in fair value of debt securities resulting in $112.9 million of unrealized losses in the available-for-sale portfolio and substantially contributing to a total decrease of $78.9 million in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss); and
Borrowings, consisting of short-term FHLB advances, increased $60.0 million and were utilized to fund short-term liquidity needs.

Total deposits were $2.70 billion at September 30, 2019, a decrease of $91.9 million, or 3.3%, from December 31, 2018. This decrease is primarily due to decreases in higher cost deposit categories such as time deposits and in interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by increases in money market accounts. Total equity was $348.9 million at September 30, 2019, an increase of $8.5 million, or 2.5%, from December 31, 2018 due to an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income from increases in fair values of securities available-for-sale.

Loan Portfolio

The Company focuses on originating loans with appropriate risk / reward profiles. The Company has a detailed Loan Policy that guides the overall loan origination philosophy and a well-established loan approval process that requires experienced credit officers to approve larger loan relationships. The Company also has an active Credit Department that underwrites and prepares annual reviews for larger and more complex loan relationships.

55

Management monitors credit quality closely with a series of monthly reports and a quarterly Credit Committee meeting where performance and trends within the loan portfolio are reviewed. Portfolio diversification at the borrower, industry, and product levels is actively managed to mitigate concentration risk. In addition, credit risk management includes an independent loan review process that assesses compliance with loan policy, compliance with loan documentation standards, accuracy of the risk rating and overall credit quality of the loan portfolio.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming loans consist of all loans past due 90 days or more past due or on nonaccrual. Nonperforming assets consist of all nonperforming loans and foreclosed assets. Typically, loans are placed on nonaccrual when they reach 90 days past due, or when, in management’s opinion, there is reasonable doubt regarding the collection of the amounts due through the normal means of the borrower. Interest accrued and unpaid at the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed from interest income. Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans are recognized in accordance with our significant accounting policies. Once a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the borrower must generally demonstrate at least six months of payment performance and we must believe that all remaining principal and interest is fully collectible, before the loan is eligible to return to accrual status. Management believes the Company'sCompany’s lending practices and active approach to managing nonperforming assets has resulted in timely resolution of problem assets.

Loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality are considered past due or delinquent when the contractual principal or interest due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement remains unpaid after the due date of the scheduled payment. However, these loans may be considered performing, even though they may be contractually past due, as any non-payment of contractual principal or interest is considered in the periodic re-estimation of expected cash flows and is included in the resulting recognition of current period loan loss provision or future period yield adjustments. The accrual of interest is discontinued on loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality if management can no longer estimate future cash flows on the loan. Therefore, interest revenue, through accretion of the difference between the carrying value of the loans and the expected cash flows, is being recognized on all loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality, except those on which management can no longer estimate future cash flows.

See "Non-GAAP Financial Information" below for reconciliation of non-GAAP measure to their most comparable GAAP measures.

Total nonperforming assets were $25.6$5.8 million at September 30, 2019, a decrease from $34.8 million at June 30, 2019, due primarily to payoffs and paydowns2022, decreasing slightly since December 31, 2021. Our level of nonperforming loansassets has remained low in recent years, representing only 0.14% of total assets at both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. We believe our continuous credit monitoring and collection efforts have resulted in lower levels of nonperforming assets, while also recognizing that favorable economic conditions prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and substantial federal economic stimulus during the quarter. However, nonperforming assets at September 30, 2019 were comparablepandemic have also contributed to $25.5 million at December 31, 2018. Asset quality metrics can be generally influenced by economic conditions beyond the control of the Company, and specific measures may fluctuate from quarter to quarter.these lower levels.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

In general, if the Company grants a troubled debt restructuring (TDR)(“TDR”) that involves either the absence of principal amortization or a material extension of an existing loan amortization period in excess of our underwriting standards, the loan will be placed on nonaccrual status. However, if a TDR is well secured by an abundance of collateral and the collectability of both interest and principal is probable, the loan may remain on accrual status. A nonaccrual TDR in full compliance with the payment requirements specified in the loan modification for at least six months may return to accrual status, if the collectability of both principal and interest is probable. All TDRs are individually evaluated for impairment.

Risk Classification of Loans

Our policies, consistent with regulatory guidelines, provide for the classification of loans and other assets that are considered to be of lesser quality as pass-watch, substandard, doubtful, or loss.

A pass-watch loan is still considered a "pass" credit and is not a classified or criticized asset, but is a reflection of a borrower who exhibits credit weaknesses or downward trends warranting close attention and increased monitoring. These potential weaknesses may result in TDRsdeterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan. No loss of principal or interest is expected, and the borrower does not pose sufficient risk to warrant classification.

A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized as probable that the borrower will not pay principal and interest in accordance with the contractual terms.

An asset classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted; such balances are promptly charged-off as required by applicable federal regulations.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our risk classifications of loans were as follows:

The net charge-offs (recoveries) to average total loans before allowance for loan losses haveratio has remained low during eachfor several years. We believe our continuous credit monitoring and collection efforts have resulted in lower levels of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 due primarily toloan losses, while also recognizing that favorable economic conditions prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and our continuous monitoring and collection efforts.substantial federal economic stimulus during the pandemic have also contributed to reduced loan losses.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

The average balances of non-maturity deposits increased 7.6% from the three months ended September 30, 2021 to the three months ended September 30, 2022, with the increase primarily attributable to the NXT acquisition which added $139.4 million of non-maturity deposits on October 1, 2021. Time deposits decreased slightly due to continued run-off of higher cost time deposits which were mostly offset by the addition of $42.1 million of time deposits acquired from NXT.

Recent increases in market interest rates have remained more stable,increased competition for deposits. As a result, we expect  deposit costs to increase during the rest of 2022 and deposits balances may decrease. Additionally, outgoing deposits may be replaced by higher cost funding sources, such as FHLB advances, brokered deposits, or other wholesale funding.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

The average balances of non-maturity deposits increased 12.2% from the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, with recent growththe increase primarily attributable to higher balances maintained by deposit customers following the receipt of federal economic stimulus, in the money market category primarilyform of PPP loan proceeds by commercial customers and direct payments received by retail customers, although this trend began to reverse in the second quarter of 2022. Additionally, the NXT acquisition added $139.4 million of non-maturity deposits on October 1, 2021. Time deposits increased slightly due to a special rate offered on new accounts.the addition of $42.1 million of time deposits acquired from NXT which were mostly offset by the continued run-off of higher cost time deposits.

IMPACT OF INFLATIONAs of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Bank’s uninsured deposits, including related accrued interest, were estimated to be $772.0 million and $845.7 million, respectively.

The consolidated financial statements and the related notes have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation, if any, is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.

The Banks manage theirBank manages its liquidity position to meet theour daily cash flow needs, of clients, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives. The BanksBank also monitormonitors liquidity requirements in light of interest rate trends, changes in the economy, and the scheduled maturity and interest rate sensitivity of the investment and loan portfolios and deposits.deposits, and regulatory capital requirements.

As part of the Banks'Bank’s liquidity management strategy, the Banks areBank is also focused on minimizing costs of liquidity and attemptattempts to decrease these costs by promoting noninterest bearing and low-cost deposits and replacing higher cost funding including time deposits and borrowed funds. While the Banks doBank does not control the types of deposit instruments our clients choose, those choices can be influenced with the rates and the deposit specials offered.

Additional sources of liquidity include unpledged securities, federal funds purchased, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (FHLB).FHLB. Unpledged securities may be sold or pledged as collateral for borrowings to meet liquidity needs. Interest is charged at the prevailing market rate on federal funds purchased and FHLB borrowings. There were no outstanding federal funds purchased or FHLB borrowings at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Funds obtained fromavailable through federal funds purchased and FHLB borrowings are used primarily to meet day to daydaily liquidity needs. The total amount of the remaining credit available to the BanksBank from the FHLB at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 20182022 was $331.9 million and $337.0 million, respectively.$330.6 million.

As of September 30, 2019,2022, management believed adequatethe current liquidity existedand available sources of liquidity are adequate to meet all projected cash flow obligations of the Banks.reasonably foreseeable short-term and intermediate-term demands of the Bank. As of September 30, 2022, the Bank had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

Holding Company Liquidity

The Holding Company, or HBT Financial, Inc. on an unconsolidated basis, is a corporation separate and apart from the BanksBank and, therefore, it must provide for its own liquidity. As of September 30, 2022, the Holding Company had cash and cash equivalents of $22.7 million.

The Holding Company’s main source of funding is dividends declared and paid to it by the Banks. Statutory and regulatory limitations exist that affect the ability of the Banks to pay dividends to the Company. Management believes that these limitations will not impact the Company’s ability to meet its ongoing short-term cash obligations.

Bank. Due to state banking laws, neitherthe Bank may not declare dividends in any calendar year in an amount that would exceed the accumulated retained earnings, of such Bank after giving effect to any unrecognized losses and bad debts, without the prior approval of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. In addition, dividends paid by athe Bank to the Holding Company would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause athe Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements. Management believes that these limitations will not impact the Holding Company’s ability to meet its ongoing short-term cash obligations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Bank paid $6.0 million and $18.0 million in dividends to the Holding Company, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Bank did not pay a dividend to the Holding Company.

The liquidity needs of the Holding Company on an unconsolidated basis consist primarily of operating expenses, dividends to stockholders and interest payments on the subordinated debentures.notes and junior subordinated debentures, and shareholder distributions in the form of dividends and stock repurchases. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, holding company operating expenses consisted of interest expense of $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively, and other operating expenses of $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, holding company operating expenses consisted of interest expense of $2.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively, and other operating expenses of $4.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively.

Additionally, the Holding Company paid $4.6 million and $4.1 million of dividends to stockholders during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and paid $14.0 million and $12.4 million of dividends to stockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, management was not aware of any known trends, events or uncertainties that had or were reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Holding Company’s liquidity.

As of September 30, 2019,2022, management believed adequatethe current liquidity existedand available sources of liquidity are adequate to meet all projected cash flow obligations of the Company.reasonably foreseeable short-term and intermediate-term demands of the Holding Company. As of September 30, 2022, the Holding Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The overall objectives of capital management are to ensure the availability of sufficient capital to support loan, deposit and other asset and liability growth opportunities and to maintain capital to absorb unforeseen losses or write-downs that are inherent in the business risks associated with the banking industry. The Company seeks to balance the need for higher capital levels to address such unforeseen risks and the goal to achieve an adequate return on the capital invested by our stockholders.

64

Regulatory Capital Requirements

The actualCompany and requiredBank are each subject to various regulatory capital amountsrequirements administered by federal and ratiosstate banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements of the Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Banks are listed below. Management believed that, as of September 30, 2019, the Company and the BanksBank.

78

In addition to meeting minimum capital requirements, the Company and the Bank must also maintain a “capital conservation buffer” to avoid becoming subject to restrictions on capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments to management. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the capital conservation buffer requirement was 2.5% of risk-weighted assets.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which wethey were subject. As of that date,those dates, the Banks wereBank was “well capitalized” under the regulatory prompt corrective action provisions.

The following table sets forth actual capital ratios of the Company and the Bank as of the dates indicated, as well as the minimum ratios for capital adequacy purposes with the capital conservation buffer, and the minimum ratios to be well capitalized under regulatory prompt corrective action provisions.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As a financial services provider, the BanksBank routinely areis a party to various financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks, such as commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, unused lines of credit, and commitments to sell loans.loans, and interest rate swaps. While these contractual obligations represent our future cash requirements, a significant portion of commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon. Such commitments are subject to the same credit policies and approval process afforded to loans originated by the Banks.Bank. Although commitments to extend credit are considered in determiningwhile evaluating our allowance for loan losses, atas of September 30, 20192022 and December 31, 2018,2021, there were no provisionreserves for losses on commitments to extend credit, and there were no specific or general allowance for losses on such commitments, as there has been no historical loss experience with commitments to extend credit and no probable and reasonably estimable losses were inherent in the portfolio as a result of the commitments to extend credit.unfunded commitments. For additional information, see “Note 1614 – Commitments and Contingencies” to the consolidated financial statements.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and other funding needs as disclosed in our prospectus filed with the SEC on October 11, 2019.

JOBS ACT ACCOUNTING ELECTION

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). The JOBS Act permits us an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards affecting public companies. We have elected to use the extended transition period until we are no longer an emerging growth company or until we choose to affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company has established various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United State of America in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Critical accounting estimates are those that are critical to the portrayal and understanding of the Company'sCompany’s financial condition and results of operations and require management to make assumptions that are difficult, subjective or complex. These estimates involve judgments, assumptions and uncertainties that are susceptible to change. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending on the severity of such changes, the possibility of a materially different financial condition or materially different results of operations is a reasonable likelihood. Further, changes in accounting standards could impact the Company'sCompany’s critical accounting estimates. The following accounting estimate could be deemed critical:

ThereAllowance for Loan losses

The allowance for loan losses (“allowance”) is an estimate of loan losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio. The allowance represents amounts that have been no material changesestablished to our critical accounting policiesrecognize incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio that are both probable and estimates as comparedreasonably estimable at the date of the consolidated financial statements. The allowance is established through a provision for loan losses which is charged to expense. Additions to the critical accounting policiesallowance are expected to maintain the adequacy of the total allowance. Loan losses are charged off against the allowance when the Company determines the loan balance to be uncollectible. Cash received on previously charged off amounts is recorded as a recovery to the allowance.

The allowance consists of two primary components, general reserves and estimates describedspecific reserves related to impaired loans. General reserves cover non-impaired loans, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, and are based on historical losses adjusted for qualitative factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Company over the most recent 16-quarter period. Qualitative factor adjustments primarily consider current economic metrics, such as national and regional unemployment rates, and current credit quality metrics of each portfolio segment, such as past due and risk rating percentages, relative to historical levels. These qualitative factor adjustments are inherently subjective.

Specific reserves cover impaired loans, or loans individually evaluated for impairment, and are primarily measured based on the fair value of collateral. Adjustments to the fair value of collateral are made for anticipated selling costs. A specific reserve may be zero if the fair value of collateral on the measurement date is greater than the carrying balance of the impaired loan. Additionally, the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the original contractual interest rate may also be used, when practical.

While the Company uses the best information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may become necessary if conditions change substantially from the conditions used in previous evaluations. Determinations as to the Company's prospectus filed withrisk classification of loans and the SEC on October 11, 2019. For more information, please referamount of the allowance for loan losses are subject to “Note 1 – Summaryreview by regulatory agencies, which can require that the Company establish additional loss allowances.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

This Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q10-Q contains certain financial information determined by methods other than those in accordance with GAAP. These measures include net interest income (tax-equivalent basis), net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis), efficiency ratio (tax-equivalent basis), tangible common equity, tangible assets,

66

tangible common equity to tangible assets, originated loans and acquired loans and any ratios derived therefrom,  core deposits, core deposits to total deposits, return on tangible common equity, adjusted C Corp equivalent net income, adjusted C Corp equivalent earnings per share – basic and diluted, adjusted C Corp equivalent return on average assets, adjusted C Corp equivalent return on average stockholders’ equity, and adjusted C Corp equivalent return on average tangible common equity. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, together with the related GAAP financial measures, in its analysis of our performance and in making business decisions. The tax equivalent adjustment to net interest income recognizes the income tax savings when comparing taxable and tax-exempt assets and assumes a federal tax rate of 21% and state income tax rate of 9.5%.

Originated loans and acquired loans along with the related credit quality ratios such as net charge-offs to average loans (originated and acquired), nonperforming loans to total loans (originated and acquired), and nonperforming assets to total loans and foreclosed assets (originated and acquired) are non-GAAP financial measures. Originated loans represent loans initially originated by the Company and acquired loans that were refinanced using the Company’s underwriting criteria. Acquired loans represent loans originated under the underwriting criteria used by a bank that was acquired by Heartland Bank or Lincoln Bank. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information regarding the credit quality of loans underwritten using the Company’s policies and procedures.

Management believes that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present these non-GAAP financial measures, and accordingly believes that providing these measures may be useful for peer comparison purposes. These disclosures should not be viewed as substitutes for the results determined to be in accordance with GAAP; nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that may be presented by other companies. See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directlyclosely comparable GAAP financial measures appear below.

-
Adjusted Return on Average Assets, which is Adjusted Net Income divided by average assets.
-
Adjusted Return on Average Equity, which is Adjusted Net Income divided by average equity.
-
Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Basic, which is Adjusted Net Income allocated to common shares divided by weighted average common shares outstanding.

We also sometimes refer to Net Interest Margin (Tax Equivalent Basis), which is Net Interest Income (Tax Equivalent Basis) divided by average interest-earning assets.

Efficiency Ratio (Tax Equivalent Basis)

Noninterest expense less amortization of intangible assets divided by the sum of net interest income (tax equivalent basis) and noninterest income. (1)
Provides a measure of productivity in the banking industry.

(1)The Company has granted certain restricted stock units that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents. Such restricted stock units are considered participating securities. As such, we have included these restricted stock units in the calculation of basic earnings per share and calculate basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings.

(1)  On a C Corp tax-equivalent basis assuming a federal income tax rate of 21% and a state tax rate of 9.5%.

Net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) and net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis) are non-GAAP financial measures that adjust for the tax-favored status of net interest income from loans and investments using a federal tax rate of 21% and state income tax rate of 9.5%. We believe net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) and net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis) are the preferred industry measurement of net interest income, and these non-GAAP financial measures enhance comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is our net interest income and net interest margin.

Efficiency ratio (tax-equivalent basis) provides a measure of productivity in the banking industry. This ratio is calculated to measure the cost of generating one dollar of revenue. That is, the ratio is designed to reflect the percentage of one dollar which must be expended to generate that dollar of revenue. We calculate this ratio by dividing adjusted noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis using a federal tax rate of 21% and a state income tax rate of 9.5%.

Reflects adjustment to our historical net income for each period to give effect to the C Corp equivalent provision for income tax for such period.

Tangible common equity and tangible assets are non-GAAP financial measures generally used by investors to evaluate capital adequacy. We calculate: (i) tangible common equity as total stockholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets; (ii) tangible assets as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets, (iii) tangible common equity to tangible assets as the ratio of tangible common equity (as described in clause (i)) to tangible assets (as described in clause (ii)). Adjusted C Corp equivalent return on average stockholders’ equity is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by dividing adjusted C Corp equivalent net income for a period by average stockholders' equity for the period.  Adjusted C Corp equivalent return on average tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by dividing adjusted C Corp equivalent net income for a period by average tangible common equity for the period.  We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, and the related ratios such as adjusted C Corp equivalent return on average stockholders’ equity and adjusted C Corp equivalent return on average tangible common equity, are important information to be provided to investors because investors, our management, and banking regulators can use the tangible book value in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to assess our capital adequacy without the effect of our goodwill and core deposit intangible assets and compare our capital adequacy with the capital adequacy of other banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill and/or core deposit intangible

ITEM 3.         QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Managing risk is an essential part of successfully managing a financial institution. Our most prominent risk exposures are interest rate risk and credit risk. Interest rate risk is the potential reduction of net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Credit risk is the risk of not collecting the interest and/or the principal balance of a loan or investment when it is due and is disclosed in detail above.

Interest Rate Risk

TheOur most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk inherent in the normal course of lending and deposit-taking activities. Interest rate risk is the potential reduction of net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates.  Management believes that our ability to successfully respond to changes in interest rates will have a significant impact on our financial results. To that end, management actively monitors and manages our interest rate exposure.

The Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO)(“ALCO”), which is authorized by the Company’s board of directors, monitors our interest rate sensitivity and makes decisions relating to that process. The ALCO’s goal is to structure our asset/liability composition to maximize net interest income while managing interest rate risk so as to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and capital in either a rising or declining interest rate environment. Profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. A sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact our earnings because the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent or on the same basis.

We monitor the impact of changes in interest rates on our net interest income and economic value of equity or EVE,(“EVE”) using rate shock analysis. Net interest income simulations measure the short-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest in a rigorous and explicit fashion. Our current financial position is combined with assumptions regarding future business to calculate net interest income under varying hypothetical rate scenarios. EVE measures our long-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest. EVE is defined as the present value of assets minus the present value of liabilities at a point in time. A decrease in EVE due to a specified rate change indicates a decline in the long-term earnings capacity of the balance sheet assuming that the rate change remains in effect over the life of the current balance sheet.

71

The following table sets forth as of September 30, 2019, the estimated impact on our EVE and net interest income of immediate and parallel changes in interest rates at the specified levels.

This data does not reflect any actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes in rates paid on certain deposit accounts based on local competitive factors or changes in earning assets mix, which could reduce the actual impact on EVE and net interest income, if any.

86

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in EVE and net interest income requires that we make certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The EVE and net interest income table presented above assumes that the composition of our interest-rate-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and, accordingly, the data does not reflect any actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes in rates paid on certain deposit accounts based on local competitive factors.factors, which could change the actual impact on EVE and net interest income. The table also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or the repricing characteristics of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the EVE and net interest income table provides an indication of our sensitivity to interest rate changes at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our net interest income and will differ from actual results.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that borrowers or counterparties will be unable or unwilling to repay their obligations in accordance with the underlying contractual terms. We manage and control credit risk in the loan and lease portfolio by adhering to well-defined underwriting criteria and account administration standards established by management. Our loan policy documents underwriting standards, approval levels, exposure limits and other limits or standards deemed necessary and prudent. Portfolio diversification at the borrower, industry, and product levels is actively managed to mitigate concentration risk. In addition, credit risk management also includesincludes an independent loan review process that assesses compliance with loan policy, compliance with loan documentation standards, accuracy of the risk rating and overall credit quality of the loan portfolio.

On October 10, 2019, our registration statementDecember 14, 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved a stock repurchase program that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $15 million of its common stock. The stock repurchase program will be in effect until January 1, 2023 with the timing of purchases and number of shares repurchased dependent upon a variety of factors including price, trading volume, corporate and regulatory requirements, and market conditions. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under the stock repurchase program, and the stock repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice. The stock repurchase program has been paused until completion of the vote of Town and Country’s shareholders on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-233747) was declared effective by the SEC for our underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) in which we sold a totalmerger.
