Reports First Quarter 2024 Net Income of $21.3 Million, or $0.47 per Diluted Share By: ACCESSWIRE April 17, 2024 at 12:30 PM EDT AURORA, IL / ACCESSWIRE / April 17, 2024 / Old Second Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company," "Old Second," "we," "us," and "our") (NASDAQ:OSBC), the parent company of Old Second National Bank (the "Bank"), today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2024. Our net income was $21.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $18.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, and net income of $23.6 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain nonrecurring items, as applicable, was $21.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $19.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, and $23.4 million, or $0.52 per share, for the first quarter of 2023. There were no adjusting items impacting the first quarter of 2024; significant adjusting items impacting the fourth quarter of 2023 results included a $1.2 million litigation reserve related to prior years' overdraft fee compliance. See the discussion entitled "Non-GAAP Presentations" below and the tables beginning on page 17 of the full earnings release that provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent. Net income increased $3.1 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to the decrease of $4.5 million in provision for credit losses and the $1.8 million increase in noninterest income primarily due to a more favorable mark on the fair value of mortgage servicing rights, which were partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in net interest and dividend income, a $1.2 million increase in noninterest expense and a $518,000 increase in provision for income taxes. Net income decreased $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to a decrease in net interest income of $4.3 million year over year driven by contraction in the securities portfolio, as well as higher market rates and increased short-term borrowing. The higher market rates and increased borrowing resulted in a $7.5 million increase to interest expense. Operating Results First quarter 2024 net income was $21.3 million, reflecting a $3.1 million increase from the fourth quarter 2023, and a decrease of $2.3 million from the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income, as defined above, was $21.3 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $2.2 million from adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $2.1 million from adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2023. Net interest and dividend income was $59.8 million for the first quarter of 2024, reflecting a decrease of $1.5 million, or 2.4%, from the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $4.3 million, or 6.7%, from the first quarter of 2023. We recorded a net provision for credit losses of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to a net provision for credit losses of $8.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, and a net provision for credit losses of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. Noninterest income was $10.5 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.8 million, or 20.3%, compared to $8.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, and an increase of $3.2 million, or 42.9%, compared to $7.4 million for the first quarter of 2023. Noninterest expense was $38.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.2 million, or 3.3% compared to $37.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, and an increase of $2.3 million, or 6.5%, compared to $35.9 million for the first quarter of 2023. We had a provision for income tax of $7.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to a provision for income tax of $6.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and a provision of $8.4 million for the first quarter of 2023. The effective tax rate for each of the periods presented was 25.3%, 26.9%, and 26.3%, respectively. On April 16, 2024, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share of common stock, payable on May 6, 2024, to stockholders of record as of April 26, 2024.

Return on average assets and return on average tangible common equity came in at 1.51% and 17.8%, respectively, and the efficiency ratio remains strong at just over 53% despite seasonally high expenses. The net interest margin is proving to be quite resilient despite volatility in market interest rates and asset quality continues to trend favorably with continuing positive migration and no surprises in the first quarter. Over the year ago quarter, our tangible book value per share has increased by 25% and our common equity Tier 1 ratio now exceeds 12% from under 10% just a year ago. The strength of our balance sheet today, combined with exceptional profitability, provides us the flexibility to continue to invest for growth while evaluating the potential to return capital to stockholders in the near term. In short, balance sheet flexibility, combined with continuing strength in core banking trends, gives me confidence Old Second can deliver another strong year in 2024 for our stockholders, communities and employees. I have never been more excited for the future of Old Second." Asset Quality & Earning Assets Nonperforming loans, comprised of nonaccrual loans plus loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing, totaled $65.1 million at March 31, 2024, $68.8 million at December 31, 2023, and $64.5 million at March 31, 2023. Nonperforming loans, as a percent of total loans, were 1.6% at March 31, 2024, 1.7% at December 31, 2023, and 1.6% at March 31, 2023. The decrease in the first quarter of 2024 is driven by a partial charge-off of $3.9 million for a commercial real estate-owner occupied loan. Total loans were $3.97 billion at March 31, 2024, reflecting a decrease of $73.5 million compared to December 31, 2023, and a decrease of $33.9 million compared to March 31, 2023. The decrease year over year was largely driven by the declines in commercial and commercial real estate-owner occupied portfolios. Average loans (including loans held-for-sale) for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $4.02 billion, reflecting an increase of $2.9 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of $86.9 million from the first quarter of 2023. Available-for-sale securities totaled $1.17 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $1.19 billion at December 31, 2023, and $1.46 billion at March 31, 2023. The unrealized mark to market loss on securities totaled $85.0 million as of March 31, 2024, compared to $84.2 million as of December 31, 2023, and $105.6 million as of March 31, 2023, due to market interest rate fluctuations as well as changes year over year in the composition of the securities portfolio. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we had security purchases of $15.7 million, security maturities of $2.0 million, paydowns of $30.7 million, and sales of $5.3 million, resulting in net realized gains of $1,000, compared to security purchases of $9.2 million, paydowns of $25.6 million, no sales of securities and $55.9 million of maturities and calls during the quarter ended December 31, 2023, which resulted in net realized losses of $2,000. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, we had $4.2 million of security purchases, $37.7 million of security paydowns, calls and maturities, and security sales of $66.2 million, which resulted in net realized losses of $1.7 million. We may continue to buy and sell strategically identified securities as opportunities arise. Non-GAAP Presentations Management has disclosed in this earnings release certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate and measure our performance, including the presentation of adjusted net income, net interest income and net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis, and our efficiency ratio calculations on a taxable equivalent basis. The net interest margin fully taxable equivalent is calculated by dividing net interest income on a tax equivalent basis by average earning assets for the period. Consistent with industry practice, management has disclosed the efficiency ratio including and excluding certain items, which is discussed in the noninterest expense presentation on page 7 of the full filing of this release; see the investor relations tab at oldsecond.com for this full release. We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe these measures provide investors with information regarding balance sheet profitability, and we believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing, and comparing past, present and future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for GAAP financial measures, and we strongly encourage investors to review the GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. The tables beginning on page 17 of the full filing of this release provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent; see the investor relations tab at oldsecond.com for this full release.

Old Second Bancorp, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2024 Net Income of $21.3 Million, or $0.47 per Diluted Share By: ACCESSWIRE April 17, 2024 at 12:30 PM EDT AURORA, IL / ACCESSWIRE / April 17, 2024 / Old Second Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company," "Old Second," "we," "us," and "our") (NASDAQ:OSBC), the parent company of Old Second National Bank (the "Bank"), today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2024. Our net income was $21.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $18.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, and net income of $23.6 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain nonrecurring items, as applicable, was $21.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $19.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, and $23.4 million, or $0.52 per share, for the first quarter of 2023.

Net income increased $3.1 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to the decrease of $4.5 million in provision for credit losses and the $1.8 million increase in noninterest income primarily due to a more favorable mark on the fair value of mortgage servicing rights, which were partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in net interest and dividend income, a $1.2 million increase in noninterest expense and a $518,000 increase in provision for income taxes. Net income decreased $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to a decrease in net interest income of $4.3 million year over year driven by contraction in the securities portfolio, as well as higher market rates and increased short-term borrowing. The higher market rates and increased borrowing resulted in a $7.5 million increase to interest expense. Operating Results First quarter 2024 net income was $21.3 million, reflecting a $3.1 million increase from the fourth quarter 2023, and a decrease of $2.3 million from the first quarter of 2023.

Net interest and dividend income was $59.8 million for the first quarter of 2024, reflecting a decrease of $1.5 million, or 2.4%, from the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $4.3 million, or 6.7%, from the first quarter of 2023. We recorded a net provision for credit losses of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to a net provision for credit losses of $8.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, and a net provision for credit losses of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2023.

We had a provision for income tax of $7.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to a provision for income tax of $6.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and a provision of $8.4 million for the first quarter of 2023. The effective tax rate for each of the periods presented was 25.3%, 26.9%, and 26.3%, respectively.

Nonperforming loans, as a percent of total loans, were 1.6% at March 31, 2024, 1.7% at December 31, 2023, and 1.6% at March 31, 2023. The decrease in the first quarter of 2024 is driven by a partial charge-off of $3.9 million for a commercial real estate-owner occupied loan. Total loans were $3.97 billion at March 31, 2024, reflecting a decrease of $73.5 million compared to December 31, 2023, and a decrease of $33.9 million compared to March 31, 2023. The decrease year over year was largely driven by the declines in commercial and commercial real estate-owner occupied portfolios. Average loans (including loans held-for-sale) for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $4.02 billion, reflecting an increase of $2.9 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of $86.9 million from the first quarter of 2023.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we had security purchases of $15.7 million, security maturities of $2.0 million, paydowns of $30.7 million, and sales of $5.3 million, resulting in net realized gains of $1,000, compared to security purchases of $9.2 million, paydowns of $25.6 million, no sales of securities and $55.9 million of maturities and calls during the quarter ended December 31, 2023, which resulted in net realized losses of $2,000. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, we had $4.2 million of security purchases, $37.7 million of security paydowns, calls and maturities, and security sales of $66.2 million, which resulted in net realized losses of $1.7 million. We may continue to buy and sell strategically identified securities as opportunities arise. Non-GAAP Presentations Management has disclosed in this earnings release certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate and measure our performance, including the presentation of adjusted net income, net interest income and net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis, and our efficiency ratio calculations on a taxable equivalent basis. The net interest margin fully taxable equivalent is calculated by dividing net interest income on a tax equivalent basis by average earning assets for the period. Consistent with industry practice, management has disclosed the efficiency ratio including and excluding certain items, which is discussed in the noninterest expense presentation on page 7 of the full filing of this release; see the investor relations tab at oldsecond.com for this full release. We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe these measures provide investors with information regarding balance sheet profitability, and we believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing, and comparing past, present and future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for GAAP financial measures, and we strongly encourage investors to review the GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. The tables beginning on page 17 of the full filing of this release provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent; see the investor relations tab at oldsecond.com for this full release.

AURORA, IL / ACCESSWIRE / April 17, 2024 / Old Second Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company," "Old Second," "we," "us," and "our") (NASDAQ:OSBC), the parent company of Old Second National Bank (the "Bank"), today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2024. Our net income was $21.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $18.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, and net income of $23.6 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain nonrecurring items, as applicable, was $21.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $19.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, and $23.4 million, or $0.52 per share, for the first quarter of 2023. There were no adjusting items impacting the first quarter of 2024; significant adjusting items impacting the fourth quarter of 2023 results included a $1.2 million litigation reserve related to prior years' overdraft fee compliance. See the discussion entitled "Non-GAAP Presentations" below and the tables beginning on page 17 of the full earnings release that provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent. Net income increased $3.1 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to the decrease of $4.5 million in provision for credit losses and the $1.8 million increase in noninterest income primarily due to a more favorable mark on the fair value of mortgage servicing rights, which were partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in net interest and dividend income, a $1.2 million increase in noninterest expense and a $518,000 increase in provision for income taxes. Net income decreased $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to a decrease in net interest income of $4.3 million year over year driven by contraction in the securities portfolio, as well as higher market rates and increased short-term borrowing. The higher market rates and increased borrowing resulted in a $7.5 million increase to interest expense. Operating Results First quarter 2024 net income was $21.3 million, reflecting a $3.1 million increase from the fourth quarter 2023, and a decrease of $2.3 million from the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income, as defined above, was $21.3 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $2.2 million from adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $2.1 million from adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2023. Net interest and dividend income was $59.8 million for the first quarter of 2024, reflecting a decrease of $1.5 million, or 2.4%, from the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $4.3 million, or 6.7%, from the first quarter of 2023. We recorded a net provision for credit losses of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to a net provision for credit losses of $8.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, and a net provision for credit losses of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. Noninterest income was $10.5 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.8 million, or 20.3%, compared to $8.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, and an increase of $3.2 million, or 42.9%, compared to $7.4 million for the first quarter of 2023. Noninterest expense was $38.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.2 million, or 3.3% compared to $37.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, and an increase of $2.3 million, or 6.5%, compared to $35.9 million for the first quarter of 2023. We had a provision for income tax of $7.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to a provision for income tax of $6.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and a provision of $8.4 million for the first quarter of 2023. The effective tax rate for each of the periods presented was 25.3%, 26.9%, and 26.3%, respectively. On April 16, 2024, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share of common stock, payable on May 6, 2024, to stockholders of record as of April 26, 2024.

Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Jim Eccher said "Old Second reported strong results in the first quarter with exceptional profitability and stable to improving trends. Return on average assets and return on average tangible common equity came in at 1.51% and 17.8%, respectively, and the efficiency ratio remains strong at just over 53% despite seasonally high expenses. The net interest margin is proving to be quite resilient despite volatility in market interest rates and asset quality continues to trend favorably with continuing positive migration and no surprises in the first quarter. Over the year ago quarter, our tangible book value per share has increased by 25% and our common equity Tier 1 ratio now exceeds 12% from under 10% just a year ago. The strength of our balance sheet today, combined with exceptional profitability, provides us the flexibility to continue to invest for growth while evaluating the potential to return capital to stockholders in the near term. In short, balance sheet flexibility, combined with continuing strength in core banking trends, gives me confidence Old Second can deliver another strong year in 2024 for our stockholders, communities and employees. I have never been more excited for the future of Old Second." Asset Quality & Earning Assets Nonperforming loans, comprised of nonaccrual loans plus loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing, totaled $65.1 million at March 31, 2024, $68.8 million at December 31, 2023, and $64.5 million at March 31, 2023. Nonperforming loans, as a percent of total loans, were 1.6% at March 31, 2024, 1.7% at December 31, 2023, and 1.6% at March 31, 2023. The decrease in the first quarter of 2024 is driven by a partial charge-off of $3.9 million for a commercial real estate-owner occupied loan. Total loans were $3.97 billion at March 31, 2024, reflecting a decrease of $73.5 million compared to December 31, 2023, and a decrease of $33.9 million compared to March 31, 2023. The decrease year over year was largely driven by the declines in commercial and commercial real estate-owner occupied portfolios. Average loans (including loans held-for-sale) for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $4.02 billion, reflecting an increase of $2.9 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of $86.9 million from the first quarter of 2023. Available-for-sale securities totaled $1.17 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $1.19 billion at December 31, 2023, and $1.46 billion at March 31, 2023. The unrealized mark to market loss on securities totaled $85.0 million as of March 31, 2024, compared to $84.2 million as of December 31, 2023, and $105.6 million as of March 31, 2023, due to market interest rate fluctuations as well as changes year over year in the composition of the securities portfolio. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we had security purchases of $15.7 million, security maturities of $2.0 million, paydowns of $30.7 million, and sales of $5.3 million, resulting in net realized gains of $1,000, compared to security purchases of $9.2 million, paydowns of $25.6 million, no sales of securities and $55.9 million of maturities and calls during the quarter ended December 31, 2023, which resulted in net realized losses of $2,000. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, we had $4.2 million of security purchases, $37.7 million of security paydowns, calls and maturities, and security sales of $66.2 million, which resulted in net realized losses of $1.7 million. We may continue to buy and sell strategically identified securities as opportunities arise. Non-GAAP Presentations Management has disclosed in this earnings release certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate and measure our performance, including the presentation of adjusted net income, net interest income and net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis, and our efficiency ratio calculations on a taxable equivalent basis. The net interest margin fully taxable equivalent is calculated by dividing net interest income on a tax equivalent basis by average earning assets for the period. Consistent with industry practice, management has disclosed the efficiency ratio including and excluding certain items, which is discussed in the noninterest expense presentation on page 7 of the full filing of this release; see the investor relations tab at oldsecond.com for this full release. We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe these measures provide investors with information regarding balance sheet profitability, and we believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing, and comparing past, present and future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for GAAP financial measures, and we strongly encourage investors to review the GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure.
