Business Overview



The Company is a bank holding company headquartered in Aurora, Illinois. Through
our wholly-owned subsidiary bank, Old Second National Bank, a national banking
organization also headquartered in Aurora, Illinois, we offer a wide range of
financial services through our 51 banking centers located in Cook, DeKalb,
DuPage, Kane, Kendall, LaSalle and Will counties in Illinois.  These banking
centers offer access to a full range of traditional retail and commercial
banking services including treasury management operations as well as fiduciary
and wealth management services.  We focus our business on establishing and
maintaining relationships with our clients while maintaining a commitment to
provide for the financial services needs of the communities in which we operate.

We emphasize relationships with individual customers as well as small to medium-sized businesses throughout our market area. We also have extensive wealth management services, which includes a registered investment advisory platform in addition to trust administration and trust services related to personal and corporate trusts and employee benefit plan administration services.

Merger with West Suburban Bancorp, Inc.



On December 1, 2021, we completed our merger with West Suburban Bancorp, Inc.
("West Suburban"), the holding company for West Suburban Bank.  Under the terms
of the merger agreement, each share of West Suburban common stock was converted
into 42.413 shares of our common stock and $271.15 in cash. Total cash and stock
consideration paid was approximately $295.2 million. With the acquisition of
West Suburban, we acquired 34 branches in DuPage, Kane, Kendall and Will
counties in Illinois. The transaction is discussed in more detail in Note 2 to
our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.

As we continue to consolidate operations, nine branches designated as held for
sale with a net book value of $5.8 million are reported within fixed assets at
September 30, 2022.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we sold
nine branches, resulting in $977,000 of net gains on sale, after closing costs.

COVID-19 Update


Our historically careful underwriting practices and diverse loan portfolio has
helped minimize the adverse impact of the pandemic on the Company. In addition,
the combination of the vaccine rollout, government stimulus payments, and
reduced spending during the pandemic are likely contributing factors mitigating
the impact of the pandemic on our business, financial condition, results of
operations, and our customers as of September 30, 2022. While the vaccine
remains readily available, the longer term macro-economic effects on global
supply chains, inflation, labor shortages and wage increases continue to impact
many industries. The ultimate extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on
our business, financial condition and results of operations is currently
uncertain and will depend on various developments and other factors, including a
resurgence of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths leading to additional
government imposed restrictions; refusals to receive the vaccine or any boosters
along with concerns related to new strains of the virus; supply chain issues
remaining unresolved longer than anticipated; labor shortages and wage increases
continuing to impact many industries; consumer confidence and spending falls;
and rising geopolitical tensions. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the
circumstances surrounding the pandemic, it is difficult to predict its future
adverse financial impact to the Company.

Results of Operation and Financial Condition



We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of
operations and financial condition.  For the year ended December 31, 2020, we
determined it prudent to increase our allowance for credit losses to $33.9
million, driven by both our adoption of the Current Expected Credit Losses
("CECL") methodology and the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and market
interest rate reductions in anticipation of continued market risk and
uncertainty.  In 2021, due to the lack of significant net charge-offs projected
with the 2020 forecast, and a more favorable forecast for the estimated life of
loans, we reversed $9.5 million of our legacy allowance for credit losses, but
recorded $12.1 million of Day One credit marks to the allowance for credit
losses, as well as $12.2 million of Day Two adjustments on non-purchase credit
deteriorated life of loan loss estimates, each stemming from the West Suburban
acquisition.  During the first nine months of 2022, we recorded $5.2 million of
provision for credit losses on loans primarily due to loan growth as well as our
assessment of loan metrics and nonperforming loan trends.  In addition, we also
recorded a reduction of $126,000 in our allowance for credit losses on unfunded
commitments, primarily due to a review of credit line utilization rates. These
adjustments resulted in a net provision for credit losses expense of $5.1
million for the September 30, 2022 year to date period.

We also adjust our investment securities portfolio to fair value each period end and review for any impairment that would require a provision for credit losses.

At this time, we have determined there is no need for a provision for credit losses related to our investment securities portfolio. Because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers, we may be required to recognize impairments in the future on the securities we hold as well as experience reductions in other comprehensive income. We cannot currently determine the ultimate impact of the pandemic on the long-term value of our portfolio.



As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $86.5 million and $86.3
million of goodwill, respectively.  This reflected a $146,000 increase from the
prior quarter and prior year-end as a deferred tax asset and current taxes
receivable analysis was performed after the filing of West Suburban Bank related
tax returns, with the resultant reclassifications impacting goodwill. At
November 30, 2021, we performed our recurring annual review for any goodwill
impairment.  We determined no goodwill impairment existed, however, further
deterioration in market conditions related to the general economy, financial
markets, and the associated impacts on our customers, employees and vendors,
among other factors, could significantly impact the impairment analysis and may
result in future goodwill impairment charges that, if incurred, could have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Lending Operations and Accommodations to Borrowers



To more fully support our customers during the pandemic, we established client
assistance programs, including offering commercial, consumer, and mortgage loan
payment deferrals for certain clients.  During 2020 and 2021, we executed 509 of
these deferrals on loan balances of $242.7 million. As of September 30, 2022,
all COVID-related loan deferrals had resumed payments or paid off.

During 2020 and 2021, as part of the SBA Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"), we
processed 1,320 PPP loan applications, representing a total of $199.0 million,
and we acquired $20.8 million PPP loans from our acquisition of West Suburban.
We started the application process for loan forgiveness for PPP loans in October
2020, and we continued to receive funds for forgiven loans from both the first
and second round of PPP loans through September 2022.  As of September 30, 2022,
we had 19 loans, which totaled $2.4 million, still outstanding under the PPP
program.  We expect the application process for loan forgiveness to continue
through the fourth quarter of 2022, with funds to be received from the SBA for
the forgiven loans through the remainder of 2022.

Capital and Liquidity



As of September 30, 2022, all of our capital ratios were in excess of all
regulatory requirements. While we believe that we have sufficient capital to
withstand an extended economic recession, our reported and regulatory capital
ratios could be adversely impacted by credit losses.

We believe there could be potential stresses on liquidity management as a result
of the COVID-19 pandemic.  For instance, as customers manage their own liquidity
stress, we could experience an increase in the utilization of existing lines of
credit. However, to date, due in part to federal government stimulus funds
received by our customers, as well as a higher volume of loan paydowns than
periods prior to COVID-19, our liquidity has increased.

Financial Overview

Net income for the third quarter of 2022 was $19.5 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to $8.4 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to our acquisition of West Suburban, which resulted in growth in net interest income and noninterest income, partially offset by higher noninterest expense, which included $1.1 million in acquisition-related

net income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes merger-related costs, net
of gains/(losses) on branch sales, and gains on the sale of a Visa credit card
portfolio and a land trust portfolio, was $19.6 million for the third quarter of
2022. See the discussion entitled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" on page 42, as
well as the table below, which provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP
measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalents.

The following provides an overview of some of the factors impacting our financial performance for the three month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to the like period ended September 30, 2021:

Net interest and dividend income was $55.6 million for the third quarter of

2022, compared to $22.6 million for the third quarter of 2021. Growth in

? interest and dividend income in the third quarter of 2022 was primarily due to

our acquisition of West Suburban resulting in additional loan and securities

income.

We recorded a net provision for credit losses of $4.5 million in the third

quarter of 2022, driven by a $3.5 million increase in the allowance for credit

? losses on loans due to loan growth in the portfolio, coupled with an increase

of $973,000 in our allowance for unfunded commitments. We recorded a $1.5

million release of provision expense in the third quarter of 2021.

Noninterest income was $11.5 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to

$9.3 million for the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $2.2 million, or

23.1%. Contributing to the increase was growth in service charges on deposits

? and card related income resulting primarily from the West Suburban acquisition

and resultant additional fee income. These increases were partially offset by

a decrease of $1.7 million of net gain on sale of mortgage loans from $2.2

million in the third quarter 2021 to $449,000 in the third quarter of 2022.

Noninterest expense was $36.0 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared

to $22.1 million for the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $13.9 million,

or 62.6%. Contributing to the increase was growth in salaries and employee

benefits and occupancy, furniture and equipment expenses in the third quarter

of 2022, primarily stemming from the additional employees and branches due to

? the West Suburban acquisition. In addition, we recorded $650,000 of

acquisition-related costs in the third quarter of 2022, primarily from $188,000

of management consulting expense and $343,000 other expense related to the West

Suburban acquisition. The $343,000 of other expenses was primarily due to the

timing of a loan documentation storage project of $143,000 and debit card

interchange fees of $150,000.

We had a provision for income tax expense of $7.1 million for the third quarter

of 2022, compared to a provision for income tax expense of $2.9 million for the

? third quarter of 2021. The increase in tax expense for the third quarter of

2022 was due to an increase in pre-tax income, compared to the year over year

quarter.

Our community-focused banking franchise experienced growth of $448.5 million in

total loans at September 30, 2022, compared to the year ended December 31,

2021, and an increase of $2.0 billion in total loans compared to the third

quarter of 2021, as we acquired $1.50 billion of loans in the West Suburban

? acquisition. We believe we are positioned for continued loan growth as we

continue to serve our customers' needs in a competitive economic environment.

We are continuing to seek to provide value to our customers and the communities

in which we operate, by executing on growth opportunities in our local markets


   and

developing new banking relationships, while seeking to ensure the safety and

soundness of our Bank, our customers, and our employees.

Nonaccrual loans decreased $9.4 million as of September 30, 2022, compared to

December 31, 2021, due to the upgrade or payoff of various credits in the first

nine months of 2022. Nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans was 1.4%

? as of September 30, 2022, compared to 1.3% as of December 31, 2021, and 1.5% at

September 30, 2021. Classified assets increased to $115.3 million as of

September 30, 2022, which is $38.2 million, or 49.5% more than December 31,

2021, and $78.5 million, or 213.0%, more than September 30, 2021, due to the

West Suburban acquisition in late 2021.

Critical Accounting Estimates


Our consolidated financial statements are prepared based on the application of
accounting policies in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP") and follow general practices within the banking industry.  These
policies require the reliance on estimates and assumptions, which may prove
inaccurate or are subject to variations.  These estimates, assumptions, and
judgments are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated
financial statements.  Future changes in information may affect these estimates,
assumptions, and judgments, which, in turn, may affect amounts reported in the
consolidated financial statements.  Changes in underlying factors, assumptions,
or estimates could have a material impact on our future financial condition and
results of operations.

Of the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of our
consolidated financial statements, we have identified certain items as critical
accounting policies based on the associated estimates, assumptions, judgments
and complexity. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Estimates" in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no material
changes to our critical accounting policies or the estimates made pursuant to
those policies during the most recent quarter from those disclosed in our 2021
Annual Report in Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report contains references to financial measures that are not defined in
GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures include the presentation of net interest
income and net interest margin on a tax equivalent ("TE") basis, adjusted net
income, adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share, our adjusted efficiency
ratio, and our tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio.  Management
believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures (a) provides
important supplemental information that contributes to a proper understanding of
our operating performance, (b) enables a more complete understanding of factors
and trends affecting our business, and (c) allows investors to evaluate our
performance in a manner similar to management, the financial services industry,
bank stock analysts, and bank regulators. Management uses non-GAAP measures as
follows: in the preparation of our operating budgets, monthly financial
performance reporting, and in our presentation to investors of our performance.
 However, we acknowledge that these non-GAAP financial measures have a number of
limitations. Limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures include the
risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising
these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures
differently.  These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to our
GAAP results.  A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below or alongside the
first instance where each non-GAAP financial measure is used.

Results of Operations

Overview

Three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021



Our income before taxes was $26.6 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared
to $11.3 million in the third quarter of 2021.  This increase in pretax income
was primarily due to a $33.0 million increase in interest and dividend income,
and a $2.2 million increase in noninterest income, primarily due to the addition
of West Suburban loans, securities and fee income in the third quarter of 2022.
These increases were partially offset by a $13.9 million increase in noninterest
expense, primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits,
occupancy, furniture and equipment expense, computer and data processing
expense, other expense, and amortization of core deposit intangible. The
majority of these increases were due to the inclusion of operating costs of the
legacy West Suburban staff and branches, as well as $650,000 of West Suburban
acquisition-related costs in the third quarter of 2022, primarily within
management and consulting and other expenses.  Our net income was $19.5 million,
or $0.43 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2022, compared to net
income of $8.4 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the third quarter of
2021.

                                       42

  Table of Contents

Net interest and dividend income was $55.6 million in the third quarter of 2022,
compared to $22.6 million in the third quarter of 2021.  The $33.0 million
increase was primarily driven by growth in most interest and dividend income
categories due to West Suburban related loan and securities income being
reflected.   In addition we experienced an increase in interest expense in the
third quarter of 2022, compared to the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to a
rise in deposit interest rates and increased balances from West Suburban, an
increase in other short-term borrowings due to an FHLB advance, and an increase
in the rate paid on our senior notes during the third quarter of 2022, as the
interest rate payable on these notes became floating as of January 1, 2022, at
three month LIBOR plus 385 basis points, compared to the prior 5.75% fixed rate.

Average loans, including loans held for sale, increased $1.86 billion in the
third quarter of 2022, compared to the third quarter of 2021, primarily from
$1.50 billion of average loans acquired in our acquisition of West Suburban.
Also contributing to the increase was $244.3 million in average loan growth
during the third quarter of 2022, less PPP loans forgiven or repaid and loan
paydowns.

Nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

Our income before taxes was $59.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $39.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.


 This increase in pretax income was primarily due to a $74.0 million increase in
interest and dividend income, and a $5.6 million increase in noninterest income,
as West Suburban loan, security and fee income are included in the nine months
ended September 30, 2022. These increases were partially offset by a $46.2
million increase in noninterest expense, primarily due to an increase in
salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, furniture and equipment expense,
computer and data processing expense, other expense, and amortization of core
deposit intangible. The majority of these increases were due to the inclusion of
operating costs of the legacy West Suburban staff and branches, as well as $9.5
million of West Suburban acquisition-related costs in the first nine months of
2022, primarily within computer and data processing.  Our net income was $43.8
million, or $0.97 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30,
2022, compared to net income of $29.1 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, for
the same period of 2021.

Net interest and dividend income was $142.1 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2022, compared to $68.1 million for the same period of 2021.  The
$74.0 million increase was primarily driven by growth in most interest and
dividend income categories due to West Suburban related loan and securities
income being reflected.   This increase was partially offset by a $402,000
increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022,
compared to the same period of 2021, primarily due to three full periods of
interest expense on the April 2021 issuance of subordinated debt in 2022, as
well as higher average balances of deposits from the West Suburban acquisition,
partially offset by a decrease in outstanding balances of notes payable and a
decrease in the rate paid on our senior notes during 2022, as the interest rate
payable on these notes became floating as of January 1, 2022, at three month
LIBOR plus 385 basis points, compared to the prior 5.75% fixed rate.

Net Interest Income



Net interest income, which is our primary source of earnings, is the difference
between interest income earned on interest-earning assets, such as loans and
investment securities, as well as accretion income on purchased loans, and
interest incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and
borrowings.  Net interest income depends upon the relative mix of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the ratio of
interest-earning assets to total assets and of interest-bearing liabilities to
total funding sources, and movements in market interest rates.  Our net interest
income can be significantly influenced by a variety of factors, including
overall loan demand, economic conditions, credit risk, the amount of nonearning
assets including nonperforming loans and OREO, the amounts of and rates at which
assets and liabilities reprice, variances in prepayment of loans and securities,
early withdrawal of deposits, exercise of call options on borrowings or
securities, a general rise or decline in interest rates, changes in the slope of
the yield-curve, and balance sheet growth or contraction.

Three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021



Our net interest and dividend income increased by $33.0 million to $55.6
million, for the third quarter of 2022, from $22.6 million for the third quarter
of 2021.  This increase was primarily attributable to a $33.2 million increase
in total interest and dividend income due to the acquisition of West Suburban in
December 2021.  In addition we experienced an increase in interest expense in
the third quarter of 2022, compared to the third quarter of 2021, primarily due
to increased balances from West Suburban, increased other short-term borrowings
expense due to an FHLB advance, and an increase in the rate paid on our senior
notes during 2022, as the interest rate payable on these notes became floating
as of January 1, 2022, at three month LIBOR plus 385 basis points, compared to
the prior 5.75% fixed rate.

Average earning assets for the third quarter of 2022 totaled $5.61 billion, a
decrease of $141.5 million, or 2.5%, compared to the second quarter of 2022, and
an increase of $2.52 billion, or 81.7%, compared to the third quarter of 2021.

Average interest earning deposits with



                                       43

Table of Contents



financial institutions totaled $131.3 million for the third quarter of 2022, a
decrease of $295.6 million, compared to the second quarter of 2022, and a
decrease of $392.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2021.  The yield on
average interest earning deposits was 200 basis points for the third quarter of
2022, an increase of 127 basis points from the second quarter of 2022, and an
increase of 185 basis points from the third quarter of 2021.  Interest income on
securities increased year over year, primarily due to growth in volumes and
higher interest rates.  Total average securities for the third quarter of 2022
decreased $88.8 million from the second quarter of 2022, and increased $1.04
billion from the third quarter of 2021. The increase in our average securities
year over year was primarily due to the $1.07 billion in securities acquired in
our acquisition of West Suburban. The yield on average securities increased to
2.52% for the third quarter of 2022, compared to 1.89% for the second quarter of
2022 and increased from 2.07% for the third quarter of 2021.  Total average
loans, including loans held-for-sale, totaled $3.75 billion in the third quarter
of 2022, an increase of $244.3 million from the second quarter of 2022, and an
increase of $1.86 billion from the third quarter of 2021.  The rise in average
loan balances year over year was primarily due to the $1.50 billion loan
portfolio acquired in our acquisition of West Suburban, as well as loan growth
of $244.3 million in the third quarter of 2022.  This rise in loan volumes
resulted in an increase in loan interest and fee income of $25.3 million in the
year over year period.  For the third quarter of 2022, the yield on average
loans increased to 4.93%, compared to 4.37% for the second quarter of 2022, and
4.48% for the third quarter of 2021.

Average interest bearing liabilities decreased $113.1 million, or 3.2%, in the
third quarter of 2022, compared to the second quarter of 2022, and increased
$1.54 billion compared to the third quarter of 2021.  The year over year
increase was primarily driven by a $1.55 billion increase in interest bearing
deposits primarily due to our acquisition of West Suburban, as well as continued
deposit activity of our legacy customers, offset by a $12.6 million decrease in
securities sold under repurchase agreements and a $10.2 million decrease in
notes payable and other borrowings. The linked quarter decrease was primarily
the result of maturing higher cost time deposits and declines in money market
accounts. The cost of interest bearing liabilities for the third quarter of 2022
increased four basis points from the linked period, and decreased 18 basis
points from the third quarter of 2021.  Growth in our average noninterest
bearing demand deposits of $1.06 billion in the year over year period has
assisted us in controlling our cost of funds stemming from average interest
bearing deposits and borrowings, which totaled 0.18% for the third quarter of
2022, 0.15% for the second quarter of 2022, and 0.30% for the third quarter of
2021.

Due to the significant increase in interest earning deposits with financial
institutions in 2020 and 2021 stemming from federal stimulus funds received and
PPP loan forgiveness, we had no average other short-term borrowings in the first
and second quarters of 2022 or the third quarter of 2021, which typically
consist of FHLBC advances. In the third quarter of 2022, we had an average other
short-term borrowing balance of $5.4 million due to a $25.0 million FHLB
advance. As of September 30, 2022, notes payable and other borrowings had an
average balance of $11.0 million, which consists of $10.0 million outstanding on
a term note with a correspondent bank originated in the first quarter of 2020.

Our net interest margin (GAAP) increased 77 basis points to 3.93% for the third
quarter of 2022, compared to 3.16% for the second quarter of 2022, and increased
102 basis points compared to 2.91% for the third quarter of 2021.  Our net
interest margin (TE) increased 78 basis points to 3.96% for the third quarter of
2022, compared to 3.18% for the second quarter of 2022, and increased 101 basis
points compared to 2.95% for the third quarter of 2021.  The increase in the
year over year was due primarily to the increasing market interest rates over
the majority of the past twelve months, the related rate resets on loans and
securities during the past year, and the elevated liquidity on our balance
sheet.

We continue to observe competitive pressure to maintain reduced interest rates
on loans retained at renewal.  While our loan prices are targeted to achieve
certain returns on equity, significant competition for commercial and industrial
loans as well as commercial real estate loans has put pressure on loan yields,
and our stringent underwriting standards limit our ability to make
higher-yielding loans.

Nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021


Our net interest and dividend income increased by $74.0 million, to $142.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $68.1 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  This increase was attributable to
a $74.4 million increase in total interest income primarily from the acquisition
of West Suburban as well as general loan growth, partially offset by a $402,000
increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022,
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  Increased balances on
interest earning assets related to the West Suburban acquisition drove the
increase in net interest income, along with increased yields on earning assets
and the reduction in the cost of interest bearing deposits, despite the
increased average balance of subordinated debt.

Average earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $5.74
billion, an increase of $2.72 billion, or 90.0%, compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2021.  The yield on average earning assets for the nine
months ended September 30, 2022 was 3.49%, compared to 3.34% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2021.  Total average loans, including loans held-for-sale,

  Table of Contents

totaled $3.56 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase
of $1.61 billion, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  The
increase in average loan balances, coupled with increases in market interest
rates, resulted in a $56.9 million increase in loan interest income for the nine
months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the like period in 2021.  For the
nine months ended September 30, 2022, yields on average securities decreased by
28 basis points and yields on average loans increased by 13 basis points, each
as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, due primarily to the
addition of the lower yielding legacy West Suburban securities and loan
portfolios in late 2021, as well as the timing of rate resets on loans and
securities as interest rates began to rise in 2022, compared to 2021. Average
interest earning deposits with financial institutions decreased $65.6 million in
the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the prior year like period
driven primarily by the acquisition of West Suburban, as well as the use of cash
for loan growth and the decrease in customer deposits.

Average interest bearing liabilities increased $1.65 billion, or 88.8%, in the
nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2021.  The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of West
Suburban in late 2021 resulting in an increase of $2.27 billion of interest
earning deposits.  In addition, average subordinated debt increased $20.6
million, due to the $60.0 million subordinated note issuance on April 6, 2021,
as discussed below. Partially offsetting this increase was a $7.9 million
decrease in average notes payable and other borrowings.  Average noninterest
bearing deposits increased $1.11 billion in the nine months ended September 30,
2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, due to the
acquisition of West Suburban, as well as remaining federal stimulus funds
received from our depositors.  The cost of interest bearing liabilities
decreased 20 basis points, to 25 basis points, for the nine months ended
September 30, 2022, from 45 basis points for the nine months ended September 30,
2021.

In the second quarter of 2021, we entered into Subordinated Note Purchase Agreements with certain qualified institutional buyers pursuant to which we sold and issued $60.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 3.50% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due April 15, 2031 (the "Notes").

We


sold the Notes to eligible purchasers in a private offering, and the proceeds of
this issuance are intended to be used for general corporate purposes, which may
include, without limitation, the redemption of existing senior debt, common
stock repurchases and strategic acquisitions.  The Notes bear interest at a
fixed annual rate of 3.50% through April 14, 2026, payable semi-annually in
arrears.  As of April 15, 2026 forward, the interest rate on the Notes will
generally reset quarterly to a rate equal to Three-Month Term SOFR (as defined
by the Note) plus 273 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears.  The Notes
have a stated maturity of April 15, 2031, and are redeemable, in whole are in
part, on April 15, 2026, or any interest payment date thereafter, and at any
time upon the occurrence of certain events.

Our net interest margin (GAAP) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was
3.31% compared to 3.02% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, reflecting
an increase of 29 basis points.  Our net interest margin (TE) for the nine
months ended September 30, 2022 was 3.33% compared to 3.06% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2021, an increase of 27 basis points. The increase in net
interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the
nine months ended September 30, 2021, was primarily due to the market interest
rate increases in 2022, as well as full periods reflecting West Suburban loan
and securities income.  These increases to the net interest margin were
partially offset by reductions in rates paid on deposits, and growth in
noninterest bearing deposits, which drove down our overall cost of funds.

The following tables set forth certain information relating to our average
consolidated balance sheet and reflect the yield on average earning assets and
cost of average interest bearing liabilities for the periods indicated.  These
yields reflect the related interest, on an annualized basis, divided by the
average balance of assets or liabilities over the applicable period.  Average
balances are derived from daily balances.  For purposes of discussion, net
interest income and net interest income to total earning assets in the following
tables have been adjusted to a non-GAAP TE basis using a marginal rate of 21% in
2022 and 2021 to compare returns more appropriately on tax-exempt loans and
securities to other earning assets.

non-GAAP financial measure, as discussed in the table on page 48, and includes
fees of $2.1 million and $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2022 and 2021, respectively.  Nonaccrual loans are included in the above-stated

Reconciliation of Tax-Equivalent Non-GAAP Financial Measures



Net interest and dividend income (TE) and net interest income (TE) to average
interest earning assets are non-GAAP measures that have been adjusted on a TE
basis using a marginal rate of 21% for 2022 and 2021 to compare returns more
appropriately on tax-exempt loans and securities to other earning assets.  The
table below provides a reconciliation of each non-GAAP (TE) measure to the GAAP
equivalent for the periods indicated:

Noninterest income increased $2.3 million, or 24.8%, in the third quarter of
2022, compared to the second quarter of 2022, and increased $2.2 million, or
23.1%, compared to the third quarter of 2021.  The increase from the second
quarter was primarily driven by $1.1 million of growth in residential mortgage
banking revenue that is attributable to an increase in mark to market gain

on
MSRs of $466,000, as

well as a $449,000 net gain on the sale of mortgage loans, compared to a net
loss of $262,000 on the sale of mortgage loans in the second quarter of 2022.
The variance in mortgage banking is derived from the changing rate environment
experienced during the second and third quarters and the resultant negative
impact on interest rate lock commitments during the second quarter, as well as
further increases in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights during the
third quarter.  Increases were also noted in service charges on deposits of
$333,000, and in other income of $1.2 million primarily due to a $743,000 gain
on a Visa credit card portfolio sale and a $180,000 gain on the sale of a land
trust portfolio, as compared to the linked quarter.  These increases in
noninterest income in the third quarter of 2022, compared to the second quarter
of 2022, were partially offset by a $226,000 decrease in wealth management fees,
and a $312,000 decrease in card related income.

The increase in noninterest income of $2.2 million in the third quarter of 2022,
compared to the third quarter of 2021, is primarily due to an increase of $1.3
million in services charges of deposits, an increase of $1.0 million of card
related income, and gains on the sale of the Visa credit card portfolio and the
land trust portfolio reported in other income.  These gains were partially
offset by a $1.1 million decline in residential mortgage banking revenue due to
increases in interest rates effecting the mortgage banking volumes and related
derivative, offset by an increase in the fair value of mortgage servicing
rights, and a $260,000 decline in the cash surrender value of BOLI.

N/M - Not meaningful

Noninterest income increased $5.6 million, or 19.6%, for the nine months ended
September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This
increase was primarily driven by a $3.5 million increase in card related income,
a $3.3 million increase in service charges on deposits, a $572,000 increase in
wealth management fees, and a $2.3 million increase in other income, each
stemming from the inclusion of West Suburban related activity in our results for
the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Partially offsetting these increases
was a $2.9 million decline in mortgage banking revenue year over year, comprised
primarily of a $6.1 million decrease in net gain on sales of mortgage loans,
partially offset by a $3.8 million mark to market gain on MSRs, both due to the
increasing interest rate environment, and a $821,000 decline in the cash
surrender value of BOLI.

1 The efficiency ratio shown in the table above is a GAAP financial measure
calculated as noninterest expense, excluding amortization of core deposits and
OREO expenses, divided by the sum of net interest income and total noninterest
income less any BOLI death benefit recorded, net gains or losses on securities
and mark to market gains or losses on MSRs.

2 The adjusted efficiency ratio shown in the table above is a non-GAAP financial
measure calculated as noninterest expense, excluding amortization of core
deposits, OREO expenses and merger-related costs, net of gain on branch sales,
divided by the sum of net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis, total
noninterest income less net gains or losses on securities, mark to market gains
or losses on MSRs, and nonrecurring gains on the sale of Visa credit card and
land trust portfolios, and includes a tax equivalent adjustment on the change in
cash surrender value of BOLI.  See the section entitled "Reconciliation of
Adjusted Efficiency Ratio Non-GAAP Financial Measures" starting on page 52 for a
reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2022 decreased $1.3 million, or
3.4%, compared to the second quarter of 2022, and increased $13.9 million, or
62.6%, compared to the third quarter of 2021.  The decrease in the third quarter
of 2022 compared to the second quarter was primarily attributable to $650,000 of
West Suburban acquisition-related costs for the third quarter of 2022 compared
to $3.3 million for the second quarter of 2022.  Acquisition-related costs in
the third quarter of 2022 included $90,000 in data processing expense, compared
to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to
acquisition-related core system conversion costs. Partially offsetting the
decrease in noninterest expense was an increase in occupancy, furniture and
equipment costs of $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to the
prior quarter, due to net losses on branch sales during the quarter. Finally,
our card related expense increased in the third quarter of 2022, compared to the
second quarter, due to growth in customer transactions and related volume
charges.

The year over year increase of $13.9 million in noninterest expense is primarily
attributable to an $8.0 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a
$1.7 million increase in occupancy, furniture and equipment, a $1.1 million
increase in computer and data processing expense, and a $1.2 million increase in
other expense. Officers incentive compensation increased $1.6 million in the
third quarter of 2022, compared to the third quarter of 2021, as incentive
accruals increased in the current year due to the acquisition of West Suburban,
as well as growth in our commercial lending team.  Employee benefits expense
increased $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to the third
quarter of 2021, due to increases stemming from additional employees from our
acquisition of West Suburban. The increase in occupancy, furniture and equipment
expense year over year was due to the addition of 34 West Suburban branches

in
late 2021. The $1.1

million increase in computer and data processing expense was primarily due to core system conversion costs relating to the West Suburban acquisition.

Finally, the increase in other expense was due primarily to growth in bill payment services, consulting fees and commercial loan related costs, primarily due to acquisition-related costs in the third quarter of 2022.

Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased
$46.2 million, or 70.8%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021,
primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy,
furniture and equipment, computer and data processing, and other expenses, which
increases primarily resulted from our acquisition of West Suburban in December
2021.  Salaries and employee benefits increased $22.9 million largely from the
additional employees from West Suburban.  Occupancy, furniture and equipment
increased $3.7 million, or 51.1%, due to additional facilities acquired with our
acquisition of West Suburban, net of gains from the sale of overlapping
branches.  Computer and data processing increased $8.7 million, or 214.2%,
primarily related to costs of operating multiple systems prior to conversion as
well as data conversion costs.  Other expense increased $5.8 million, or 65.0%,
primarily from a $2.9 million increase to special services expense and a $1.3
million increase in miscellaneous expenses, due to acquisition-related costs.
 In addition, FDIC insurance increased $1.2 million due to our increased asset
size, as well as the absence of assessment credits fully utilized in the 2021
year to date period.  Amortization of core deposit intangible increased $1.6
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the prior year
like period, due to the West Suburban acquisition.  Finally, consulting and
management fees increased $832,000 due to $760,000 of acquisition-related costs
and general ledger reclassifications in the first nine months of 2022.

Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $7.1 million for the third quarter of 2022 on
$26.6 million of pretax income, compared to income tax expense of $4.4 million
on $16.7 million of pretax income in the second quarter of 2022, and income tax
expense of $2.9 million on $11.3 million of pretax income in the third quarter
of 2021. Our effective tax rate was 26.5% in the third quarter of 2022, 26.6%
for the second quarter of 2022, and 25.8% for the third quarter of 2021.

We recorded income tax expense of $15.9 million on $59.7 million of pretax income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to income tax expense of $10.3 million on $39.4 million of pretax income in the like 2021 period. The effective tax rate was 26.7% and 26.1% for the third quarter of 2022 and the third quarter of 2021, respectively.

Income tax expense reflected all relevant statutory tax rates and GAAP accounting. There were no significant changes in our ability to utilize our deferred tax assets during the quarter or nine months ended September 30, 2022.

We had no valuation reserve on the deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2022.

Financial Condition



Total assets decreased $244.5 million to $5.97 billion at September 30, 2022,
from $6.21 billion at December 31, 2021, due primarily to a net decrease in cash
and cash equivalents of $636.0 million, offset by increases of $444.0 million in
net loans and $43.5 million in deferred tax assets.  The decrease in cash and
cash equivalents was primarily due to the use of cash for loan growth, as well
as the decrease in customer deposits of $184.9 million.  We continue to actively
assess potential investment opportunities to utilize our excess liquidity. Total
deposits were $5.28 billion at September 30, 2022, a decrease of $184.9 million
from December 31, 2021, primarily due to seasonal decreases of municipal
deposits, and to a lesser extent declines in interest bearing demand accounts,
savings, money market, NOW, and time deposits in 2022.

N/M - Not meaningful



Securities available-for-sale decreased $83.9 million as of September 30, 2022,
compared to December 31, 2021, and increased $894.6 million compared to
September 30, 2021. The decrease in the portfolio during 2022 was driven by
$234.8 million in principal reductions from calls, maturities and mortgage
related prepayments, as well as an unrealized mark to market loss adjustment of
$146.4 million, which were partially offset by the purchase of $301.6 million
across a variety of sectors. We continue to seek to position the portfolio in
higher credit quality, shorter duration securities with an appropriate mix of
fixed- and floating-rate exposures. The increase in the securities portfolio in
the year over year period was primarily due to the securities acquired in the
acquisition of West Suburban. There were no securities sales during the third
quarter of 2022.

1 The "Other" segment includes consumer and overdrafts.



Total loans were $3.87 billion as of September 30, 2022, an increase of $448.5
million from December 31, 2021.  The increase in total loans in the first nine
months of 2022, compared to December 31, 2021, was due primarily to growth in
loan originations within commercial real estate - investor, which increased by
$142.0 million, commercial real estate - owner occupied, which increased by
$145.1 million, commercial, which increased by $116.6 million, and leases, which
increased by $75.6 million from December 31, 2021. Total loans increased $2.00
billion from September 30, 2021 to September 30, 2022, primarily due to the loan
portfolio acquired from West Suburban. As required by CECL, the balance (or
amortized cost basis) of purchased credit deteriorated loans, or PCD loans
(discussed below) is carried on a gross basis (rather than net of the associated
credit loss estimate), and the expected credit losses for PCD loans are
estimated and separately recognized as part of the allowance for credit losses,
or ACL.

The quality of our loan portfolio is impacted not only by our credit decisions
but also by the economic health of the communities in which we operate.  Since
we are located in a corridor with significant open space and undeveloped real
estate, real estate lending (including commercial real estate, construction,
residential, multifamily, and HELOCs) has been and continues to be a sizeable
portion of our portfolio.  These categories comprised 70.2% of the portfolio as
of September 30, 2022, compared to 71.6% of the portfolio as of

                                       53

December 31, 2021. We continue to oversee and seek to manage our loan portfolio in accordance with interagency guidance on risk management.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccrual loans, performing restructured accruing loans and loans 90 days or greater past due. Remediation work continues in all segments. Nonperforming loans increased by $8.2 million to $52.9 million at September 30, 2022 from $44.7 million at December 31, 2021.


 Purchased credit deteriorated loans, or PCD loans, are purchased loans that, as
of the date of acquisition, we determined had experienced a
more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination.  PCD
loans and their related deferred loan costs are included in our nonperforming
loan disclosures, if such loans otherwise meet the definition of a nonperforming
loan.  Management continues to carefully monitor loans considered to be in a
classified status.  Nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans were 1.4% as
of September 30, 2022, 1.3% as of December 31, 2021, and 1.5% as of
September 30, 2021.  The distribution of our nonperforming loans is shown in the
following table.

Net charge-offs of $68,000 were recorded for the third quarter of 2022, compared
to net charge-offs of $250,000 for the second quarter of 2022, and net
charge-offs of $237,000 for the third quarter of 2021, reflecting continuing
management attention to credit quality and remediation efforts.  The net
charge-offs for the third quarter of 2022 were primarily due to one lease charge
off for $178,000 and one commercial real estate - investor charge off for
$94,000.  We have continued our conservative loan valuations and aggressive
recovery efforts on prior charge-offs.

Classified loans include nonaccrual, performing troubled debt restructurings and
all other loans considered substandard.  Classified assets include both
classified loans and OREO.  Loans classified as substandard are inadequately
protected by either the current net worth and ability to meet payment
obligations of the obligor, or by the collateral pledged to secure the loan, if
any.  These loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the
liquidation of the debt and carry the distinct possibility that we will sustain
some loss if deficiencies remain uncorrected.

Total classified loans and classified assets increased $38.2 million as of
September 30, 2022, from the levels at December 31, 2021. The increase is due to
the addition of commercial real estate - investor loans totaling $19.7 million
and two commercial real estate - owner occupied loans totaling $32.0 million in
the second quarter. The increase from September 30, 2021 is primarily due to the
$15.4 million addition of the West Suburban loan portfolio in late 2021.
Management monitors a ratio of classified assets to the sum of Bank Tier 1
capital and the ACL on loans as another measure of overall change in loan
related asset quality, which is referred to as the "classified assets ratio."

The classified assets ratio was 19.23% for the period ended September 30, 2022, compared to 13.79% as of December 31, 2021, and 9.73% as of September 30, 2021.

The increase in the classified assets ratio for the period ended September 30, 2022, compared to September 30, 2021, is also due to the acquisition of West Suburban.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans



The provision for credit losses, which includes a provision for losses on
unfunded commitments, is a charge to earnings to maintain the ACL at a level
consistent with management's assessment of expected losses in the loan portfolio
at the balance sheet date. As of January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, or
CECL.

At September 30, 2022, our allowance for credit losses, or ACL, on loans totaled
$48.8 million, and our ACL on unfunded commitments, included in other
liabilities, totaled $4.4 million. In the third quarter of 2022, we recorded
provision expense on loans of $3.5 million, based on our assessment of
nonperforming loan metrics and trends and estimated future credit losses, and a
$973,000 increase in our reserve on unfunded commitments, primarily due to an
updated analysis of line utilization rates over the past twelve months, as well
as the roll off of prior historical periods with lower losses within the CECL
model.  These two entries resulted in a $4.5 million net impact to the provision
for credit losses for the third quarter of 2022.

The ACL on loans totaled $45.4 million as of June 30, 2022, $44.3 as of December
31, 2021, and $26.9 million as of September 30, 2021.  The ACL on loans
increased in late 2021 due to the impact of the West Suburban acquisition Day
One credit mark of $12.1 million, the Day Two non-PCD loan adjustment to ACL of
$12.2 million, less a reversal of $2.3 million related to our legacy loan
portfolio and net charge-offs of $4.7 million for the fourth quarter.  The ACL
for loans was reduced in the third quarter of 2021 due to a $1.5 million release
of the provision for credit losses.

Management estimates the amount of provision required on a quarterly basis and
records the appropriate provision expense, or release of expense, to maintain an
adequate reserve for all potential and estimated credit losses on loans, leases
and unfunded commitments.  Our ACL on loans to total loans was 1.3% as of
September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021.  See Item 7 - Critical Accounting
Estimates in the Management Discussion and Analysis in our 2021 Annual Report in
Form 10-K for discussion of our ACL methodology on loans.

The coverage ratio of the ACL on loans to nonperforming loans was 92.3% as of
September 30, 2022, which was a decrease from the coverage ratio of 107.8% as of
June 30, 2022 and a decrease from 93.1% as of September 30, 2021.  When measured
as a percentage of average loans, our total ACL on loans was 1.37% for the nine
months ended 2022 and 1.39% for the like period of September 30, 2021

In management's judgment, an adequate ACL has been established to encompass the
current lifetime expected credit losses at September 30, 2022, and general
changes in lending policy, procedures and staffing, as well as other external
factors, such as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.  However, there can be no
assurance that actual losses will not exceed the estimated amounts in the
future, based on unforeseen economic events, changes in business climates and
the condition of collateral at the time of default and repossession.  Continued
volatility in the economic environment stemming from the impacts of and response
to inflation and the war in Ukraine, and the associated effects on our
customers, or other factors, such as changes in business climates and the
condition of collateral at the time of default or repossession, may revise our
current expectations of future credit losses in future reporting periods.

As of September 30, 2022, OREO totaled $1.6 million, reflecting a $795,000
decrease from the $2.4 million at December 31, 2021, and a $351,000 decrease
from the $1.9 million at September 30, 2021.  In the third quarter of 2022, we
disposed of one property totaling $62,000 in net book value, which resulted in a
gain on sale of OREO of $33,000 and had no transfers to OREO. In the fourth
quarter of 2021, we acquired three OREO properties in our acquisition of West
Suburban, with a total fair value of $5.6 million, and we sold two of these
properties in December, which had a net book value of $5.2 million. In the third
quarter of 2022, we recorded no OREO valuation reserve adjustments, compared to
$14,000 of valuation reserve adjustments recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021,
and $2,000 of valuation reserve adjustments recorded in the third quarter of
2021.

In management's judgment, the property valuation allowance as established
presents OREO at current estimates of fair value less estimated costs to sell;
however, there can be no assurance that additional losses will not be incurred
on disposals or upon updates to valuations in the future.  Of note, properties
valued in total at $928,000, or approximately 59.5% of total OREO at
September 30, 2022, have been in OREO for five years or more.  The appropriate
regulatory approval has been obtained for any OREO properties held in excess of
five years.

September 30, 2021.  The decrease in deposits at September 30, 2022, compared to
December 31, 2021, was primarily due to decreases in savings of $14.5 million,

accounts of $171.2 million and time deposits of $47.2 million partially offset
by increases in demand and NOW accounts of $48.0 million. The increase in
deposits at September 30, 2022, compared to September 30, 2021 was primarily due
to an increase of $2.69 billion of deposits from the West Suburban acquisition.


In addition to deposits, we obtained funding from other sources in all periods
presented.  Securities sold under repurchase agreements totaled $35.5 million at
September 30, 2022, a $14.8 million, or 29.5%, decrease from $50.3 million at
December 31, 2021.   Our notes payable and other borrowings is comprised of
$10.0 million outstanding on a $20.0 million term note originated with a
correspondent bank in the first quarter of 2020, to facilitate the redemption of
our Old Second Capital Trust I trust preferred securities and related junior
subordinated debentures, completed on March 2, 2020.  Notes payable and other
borrowings of $10.0 million as of September 30, 2022, decreased $9.1 million
from December 31, 2021, and decreased $10.2 million from September 30, 2021.

In the second quarter of 2021, we entered into Subordinated Note Purchase Agreements with certain qualified institutional buyers pursuant to which we sold and issued $60.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 3.50% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due April 15, 2031 (the "Notes").

We


sold the Notes to eligible purchasers in a private offering, and the proceeds of
this issuance are intended to be used for general corporate purposes, which may
include, without limitation, the redemption of existing senior debt, common
stock repurchases and strategic acquisitions.  The Notes bear interest at a
fixed annual rate of 3.50% through April 14, 2026, payable semi-annually in
arrears.  As of April 15, 2026 forward, the interest rate on the Notes will
generally reset quarterly to a rate equal to Three-Month Term SOFR (as defined
by the Note) plus 273 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears.  The Notes
have a stated maturity of April 15, 2031, and are redeemable, in whole are in
part, on April 15, 2026, or any interest payment date thereafter, and at any
time upon the occurrence of certain events.

We are indebted on senior notes originated in December 2016, totaling $44.6
million, net of deferred issuance costs, as of September 30, 2022.  These notes
mature in December 2026, and included interest payable semi-annually at 5.75%
for five years.  Beginning December 31, 2021, the interest became payable
quarterly at three month LIBOR plus 385 basis points.  We are also indebted on
$25.8 million, net of deferred issuance costs, of junior subordinated
debentures, which are related to the trust preferred securities issued by its
statutory trust subsidiary, Old Second Capital Trust II ("Trust II").  The Trust
II issuance converted from fixed to floating rate at three month LIBOR plus 150
basis points on June 15, 2017.  Upon conversion to a floating rate, we initiated
a cash flow hedge which resulted in the total interest rate paid on this debt of
4.39% as of September 30, 2022, as compared to 6.77%, which was the rate paid
during the period prior to the June 15, 2017 rate reset.

Capital



As of September 30, 2022, total stockholders' equity was $433.7 million, which
was a decrease of $68.3 million from $502.0 million as of December 31, 2021.
This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in accumulated other
comprehensive income of $107.2 million in the first nine months of 2022 due to a
net decrease in unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities, net of
unrealized losses on swaps, due to the increase in market interest rates, as
well as a reduction to retained earnings of $6.7 million for payment of
dividends to our common stockholders in the first nine months of 2022. Partially
offsetting this decrease was $43.8 million of net income for the nine months
ended September 30, 2022. Total stockholders' equity as of September 30, 2022,
increased $112.5 million compared to September 30, 2021, primarily due to the
West Suburban acquisition in late 2021 and the resultant additional common stock
issued, as well as net income year over year, less the reduction in accumulated
other comprehensive income of $110.6 million year over year.

As part of its response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the first
quarter of 2020, U.S. federal regulatory authorities issued an interim final
rule that provided banking organizations that adopted CECL during the 2020
calendar year with the option to delay for two years the estimated impact of
CECL on regulatory capital relative to regulatory capital determined under the
prior incurred loss methodology, followed by a three-year transition period to
phase out the aggregate amount of the capital benefit provided during the
initial two-year delay (i.e., a five-year transition in total). In connection
with our adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, we elected to utilize the
five-year CECL transition.  As of September 30, 2022, the capital measures of
the Company exclude $2.9 million, which is the modified CECL transition
adjustment.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company, on a consolidated basis, exceeded the
minimum capital ratios to be deemed "well capitalized" and met the now fully
phased-in capital conservation buffer requirements.  In addition to the above
regulatory ratios, our GAAP common equity to total assets ratio, which is used
as a performance measurement for capital analysis and peer comparisons,
decreased from 8.08% at December 31, 2021, to 7.27% at September 30, 2022.  Our
GAAP tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 5.67% at
September 30, 2022, compared to 6.54% as of December 31, 2021.  Our non-GAAP
tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, which management also considers
a valuable performance measurement for capital analysis, decreased from 6.59% at
December 31, 2021, to 5.72% at September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decline in
tangible common equity in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.  The decline
in tangible common equity was due to a decrease in accumulated other
comprehensive income of $107.2 million primarily related to unrealized losses on
available-for-sale securities stemming from the increase in market interest
rates.  The non-GAAP tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was also
negatively impacted by growth in total tangible assets in the third quarter

of
2022.

The non-GAAP intangible asset exclusion reflects the 80% core deposit limitation
per Basel III guidelines within risk based capital calculations, and is useful
for us when reviewing risk based capital ratios and equity performance metrics.

Liquidity


Liquidity is our ability to fund operations, to meet depositor withdrawals, to
provide for customers' credit needs, and to meet maturing obligations and
existing commitments.  Our liquidity principally depends on our cash flows from
operating activities, investment in and maturity of assets, changes in balances
of deposits and borrowings, and our ability to borrow funds.  We monitor our
borrowing capacity at the FHLBC as part of our liquidity management process as
supervised by our Asset and Liability Committee ("ALCO") and reviewed by our
Board of Directors.  In addition, due to the potential impacts on our liquidity
stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, our senior management team monitors cash
balances daily to ensure we have adequate liquidity to meet our operational and
financing needs.  As of September 30, 2022, our cash on hand liquidity totaled
$116.2 million, a decrease of $636.0 million over cash balances held as of
December 31, 2021.

Net cash inflows from operating activities were $60.1 million during the first
nine months of 2022, compared with net cash inflows of $50.8 million in the same
period of 2021.  Proceeds from sales of loans held-for-sale, net of funds used
to originate loans held-for-sale, were a source of inflows for the first nine
months of 2022 though to a lesser extent than the like period of 2021.  Interest
paid, net of interest received, combined with changes in other assets and
liabilities were a source of inflows for the nine months ended September 30,
2022 and also for the like period of 2021.  The management of investing and
financing activities, as well as market conditions, determines the level and the
stability of net interest cash flows.  Management's policy is to mitigate the
impact of changes in market interest rates to the extent possible, as part of
the balance sheet management process.

Net cash outflows from investing activities were $506.4 million in the nine
months ended September 30, 2022, compared to net cash outflows of $57.0 million
in the same period in 2021.  In the first nine months of 2022, securities
transactions accounted for net outflows of $66.9 million, and the principal
change on loans accounted for net outflows of $443.6 million.  In the first nine
months of 2021, securities transactions accounted for net outflows of
$225.2 million, and net principal on loans funded accounted for net inflows of
$168.6 million.  Proceeds from sales of OREO accounted for $941,000 and $607,000
in investing cash inflows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021,
respectively.

Net cash outflows from financing activities in the nine months ended September
30, 2022, were $189.7 million, compared with net cash inflows of $195.6 million
in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.   Net deposit outflows in the first
nine months of 2022 were $183.7 million compared to net deposit inflows of
$177.3 million in the first nine months of 2021.  Other short-term borrowings
had $25.0 million of net cash inflows in the first nine months of 2022, compared
to no cash inflows or outflows in the first nine months of 2021.  Changes in
securities sold under repurchase agreements accounted for outflows of $14.8
million and outflows of $24.0 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2022 and 2021, respectively.  Dividends paid on our common stock totaled $6.7
million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to dividends paid
of $3.2 million for the like 2021 period, as the per common share dividend was
increased to five cents per share in the second quarter of 2021.  The purchase
of treasury stock in the first nine months of 2022 due

to shares acquired with restricted stock award vestings resulted in outflows of
$447,000, compared to cash outflows of $10.4 million in the first nine months of
2021.

Cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, totaled
$116.2 million, as compared to $519.3 million as of September 30, 2021.  In
addition to cash and cash equivalents on hand or held as deposits with other
financial institutions, we rely on funding sources from customer deposits, cash
flows from securities available-for-sale and loans, and a line of credit with
the FHLBC to meet potential liquidity needs.  These sources of liquidity are
immediately available to satisfy any funding requirements due to depositor or
borrower demands through the ordinary course of our business.  Additional
sources of funding include a $30.0 million undrawn line of credit held by the
Company with a third party financial institution, as well as unpledged
securities available-for-sale.
