Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements 1. BASIS OF INTERIM PRESENTATION AND STATUS OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Citizens & Northern Corporation and its subsidiaries, Citizens & Northern Bank (“C&N Bank”), Bucktail Life Insurance Company and Citizens & Northern Investment Corporation (collectively, “Corporation”). The consolidated financial statements also include C&N Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, C&N Financial Services, LLC and Northern Tier Holding LLC. C&N Bank is the sole member of C&N Financial Services, LLC and Northern Tier Holding LLC. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial information included herein, except the consolidated balance sheet dated December 31, 2021, is unaudited. Such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity for the interim periods; however, the information does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for a complete set of financial statements. Operating results reported for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 might not be indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2022. The Corporation evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issues Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). This section provides a summary description of recent ASUs that have significant implications (elected or required) within the consolidated financial statements, or that management expects may have a significant impact on financial statements issued in the near future. Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 are elective and apply to all entities that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The guidance includes a general principle that permits an entity to consider contract modifications due to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. Some specific optional expedients are as follows: ● Simplifies accounting for contract modifications, including modifications to loans receivable and debt, by prospectively adjusting the effective interest rate. ● Simplifies the assessment of hedge effectiveness and allows hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform to continue. The Corporation has elected to apply the optional expedients prospectively for applicable loan and other contracts, and implementation of this election did not have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations. 9 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q Recently Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Pronouncements ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), as modified by subsequent ASUs, changes accounting for credit losses on loans receivable and debt securities from an incurred loss methodology to an expected credit loss methodology. Among other things, ASU 2016-13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Accordingly, ASU 2016-13 requires the use of forward-looking information to form credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, though the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. In addition, ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The effect of implementing this ASU is recorded through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Corporation has formed a cross functional management team and is working with an outside vendor assessing alternative loss estimation methodologies and the Corporation’s data and system needs to evaluate the impact that adoption of this standard will have on the Corporation’s financial condition and results of operations. In November 2019, the FASB approved a delay of the required implementation date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies, including the Corporation, resulting in a required implementation date for the Corporation of January 1, 2023. 2. PER SHARE DATA Basic earnings per common share are calculated using the two-class method to determine income attributable to common shareholders. Unvested restricted stock awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are considered participating securities under the two-class method. Distributed dividends and an allocation of undistributed net income to participating securities reduce the amount of income attributable to common shareholders. Income attributable to common shareholders is then divided by weighted-average common shares outstanding for the period to determine basic earnings per common share. Diluted earnings per common share are calculated under the more dilutive of either the treasury method or the two-class method. Diluted earnings per common share is computed using weighted-average common shares outstanding, plus weighted-average common shares available from the exercise of all dilutive stock options, less the number of shares that could be repurchased with the proceeds of stock option exercises based on the average share price of the Corporation’s common stock during the period. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (In Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data) ​ Three Months Ended Six Months Ended ​ ​ June 30, ​ June 30, ​ June 30, ​ June 30, ​ 2022 2021 2022 2021 Basic ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Net income ​ $ 7,489 ​ $ 7,060 ​ $ 14,384 ​ $ 15,847 Less: Dividends and undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities ​ ( 70 ) ​ ( 61 ) ​ ( 130 ) ​ ( 126 ) Net income attributable to common shares ​ $ 7,419 ​ $ 6,999 ​ $ 14,254 ​ $ 15,721 Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding ​ 15,441,564 ​ 15,868,150 ​ 15,542,959 ​ 15,859,236 Basic earnings per common share (a) ​ $ 0.48 ​ $ 0.44 ​ $ 0.92 ​ $ 0.99 Diluted ​ ​ ​ ​ Net income attributable to common shares ​ $ 7,419 ​ $ 6,999 ​ $ 14,254 ​ $ 15,721 Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding ​ 15,441,564 ​ 15,868,150 ​ 15,542,959 ​ 15,859,236 Dilutive effect of potential common stock arising from stock options ​ 3,009 ​ 6,833 ​ 3,360 ​ 5,922 Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding ​ 15,444,573 ​ 15,874,983 ​ 15,546,319 ​ 15,865,158 Diluted earnings per common share (a) ​ $ 0.48 ​ $ 0.44 ​ $ 0.92 ​ $ 0.99 Weighted-average nonvested restricted shares outstanding ​ 145,132 ​ 136,711 ​ 141,656 ​ 127,627 (a) Basic and diluted earnings per share under the two-class method are determined on net income reported on the consolidated statements of income, less earnings allocated to non-vested restricted shares with nonforfeitable dividends (participating securities). 10 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q Anti-dilutive stock options are excluded from earnings per share calculations.

Historically, C&N Bank has been required to maintain reserves against deposit liabilities in the form of cash and balances with the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. The reserves are based on deposit levels, account activity, and other services provided by the Federal Reserve Bank. In March 2020, the Federal Reserve Board reduced reserve requirements for U.S. banks to 0%. Accordingly, C&N Bank had no required reserves at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. ​ 13 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q 5.

Cash flows from such investments are dependent upon the performance of the underlying mortgage loans and are generally influenced by the level of interest rates. In the table above, mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations are shown in one period. Investment securities carried at $ 243,298,000 at June 30, 2022 and $ 241,428,000 at December 31, 2021 were pledged as collateral for public deposits, trusts and certain other deposits as provided by law. See Note 8 for information concerning securities pledged to secure borrowing arrangements and Note 11 for information related to securities pledged against interest rate swap obligations. Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) whether the Corporation intends to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. A summary of information management considered in evaluating debt and equity securities for OTTI at June 30, 2022 is provided below. Debt Securities At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, management performed an assessment for possible OTTI of the Corporation’s debt securities on an issue-by-issue basis, relying on information obtained from various sources, including publicly available financial data, ratings by external agencies, brokers and other sources. The extent of individual analysis applied to each security depended on the size of the Corporation’s investment, as well as management’s perception of the credit risk associated with each security. As reflected in the table above, the fair value of available-for-sale debt securities as of June 30, 2022 was lower than the amortized cost basis by $ 45,957,000 , or 8.0 %. In comparison, the aggregate unrealized gain position was $ 6,087,000 ( 1.2 %) at December 31, 2021. The unrealized decrease in fair value of the portfolio in the first half of 2022 was consistent with the significant increase in market interest rates that occurred during the period. Based on the results of the assessment, management believes there were no credit-related declines in fair value and that impairment of debt securities at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is temporary. Equity Securities C&N Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLB-Pittsburgh), which is one of 11 regional Federal Home Loan Banks. As a member, C&N Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in FHLB-Pittsburgh. There is no active market for FHLB-Pittsburgh stock, and it must ordinarily be redeemed by FHLB-Pittsburgh in order to be liquidated. C&N Bank’s investment in 16 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q FHLB-Pittsburgh stock, included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets, was $ 13,443,000 at June 30, 2022 and $ 9,313,000 at December 31, 2021. The Corporation evaluated its holding of FHLB-Pittsburgh stock for impairment and deemed the stock to not be impaired at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. In making this determination, management concluded that recovery of total outstanding par value, which equals the carrying value, is expected. The decision was based on review of financial information that FHLB-Pittsburgh has made publicly available. The Corporation has a marketable equity security included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets with a carrying value of $ 895,000 at June 30, 2022 and $ 971,000 at December 31, 2021, consisting exclusively of one mutual fund. There was an unrealized loss on the mutual fund of $ 105,000 at June 30, 2022 and $ 29,000 at December 31, 2021. Changes in the unrealized gains or losses on this security are included in other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income. ​ 6.

The Corporation grants loans to individuals as well as commercial and tax-exempt entities. Commercial, residential and personal loans are made to customers geographically concentrated in Northcentral Pennsylvania, the Southern tier of New York State, Southeastern Pennsylvania and Southcentral Pennsylvania. Although the Corporation has a diversified loan portfolio, a significant portion of its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent on the local economic conditions within the region. 17 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law. A provision in the CARES Act includes creation of the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) through the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and Treasury Department. Under the PPP, the Corporation, as an SBA-certified lender, provided SBA-guaranteed loans to small businesses to pay their employees, rent, mortgage interest, and utilities. PPP loans are forgiven subject to clients’ providing documentation evidencing their compliant use of funds and otherwise complying with the terms of the program. Information related to PPP loans advanced pursuant to the CARES Act are labeled “1st Draw” within the tables. On December 27, 2020, the President of the United States signed into law the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (the “CAA”), which includes provisions that broadly address additional COVID-19 responses and relief. Among the additional relief measures included are certain extensions to elements of the CARES Act, including extension of relief from troubled debt restructurings reporting established under Section 4013 of the CARES Act to 60 days after the date on which the national COVID-19 emergency terminates. The CAA also includes additional funding for the PPP with additional eligibility requirements for borrowers with generally the same loan terms as provided under the CARES Act. Information related to PPP loans advanced pursuant to the CAA are labeled “2nd Draw” within the tables. The maximum term of PPP loans is five years. Most of the Corporation’s 1st Draw PPP loans have two-year terms, while 2nd Draw PPP loans have five-year terms and the Corporation will be repaid sooner to the extent the loans are forgiven. The interest rate on PPP loans is 1%, and the Corporation has received fees from the SBA ranging between 1% and 5% per loan, depending on the size of the loan. Fees on PPP loans, net of origination costs and a market rate adjustment on acquired PPP loans, are recognized in interest income as a yield adjustment over the term of the loans. As of June 30, 2022, the recorded investment in 1st Draw PPP loans was $ 44,000 , including contractual principal balances of $ 49,000 , reduced by net deferred origination fees of $ 5,000 . The recorded investment in 2nd Draw PPP loans was $ 6,208,000 , including contractual principal balances of $ 6,392,000 reduced by net deferred origination fees of $ 184,000 . Interest and fees on PPP loans which are included in taxable interest and fees on loans in the unaudited consolidated statements of income totaled $ 206,000 in the second quarter 2022 and $ 1,249,000 in the second quarter 2021, and $ 781,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 and $ 3,247,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. Acquired loans were initially recorded at fair value, with adjustments made to gross amortized cost based on movements in interest rates (market rate adjustment) and based on credit fair value adjustments on non-impaired loans and impaired loans. Subsequently, the Corporation has recognized amortization and accretion of a portion of the market rate adjustments and credit adjustments on non-impaired (performing) loans, and a partial recovery of purchased credit impaired (PCI) loans. For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, adjustments to the initial market rate and credit fair value adjustments of performing loans were recognized as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (In Thousands) ​ Three Months Ended ​ Six Months Ended ​ ​ June 30, ​ June 30, ​ June 30, ​ June 30, ​ ​ 2022 ​ 2021 ​ 2022 ​ 2021 Market Rate Adjustment ​ ​ ​ ​ Adjustments to gross amortized cost of loans at beginning of period ​ $ ( 885 ) ​ $ 352 ​ $ ( 637 ) ​ $ 718 Accretion (amortization) recognized in interest income ​ ​ 19 ​ ​ ( 357 ) ​ ​ ( 229 ) ​ ​ ( 723 ) Adjustments to gross amortized cost of loans at end of period ​ $ ( 866 ) ​ $ ( 5 ) ​ $ ( 866 ) ​ $ ( 5 ) Credit Adjustment on Non-impaired Loans ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Adjustments to gross amortized cost of loans at beginning of period ​ $ ( 2,782 ) ​ $ ( 5,182 ) ​ $ ( 3,335 ) ​ $ ( 5,979 ) Accretion recognized in interest income ​ 379 ​ 680 ​ 932 ​ 1,477 Adjustments to gross amortized cost of loans at end of period ​ $ ( 2,403 ) ​ $ ( 4,502 ) ​ $ ( 2,403 ) ​ $ ( 4,502 ) ​ A summary of PCI loans held at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (In Thousands) ​ June 30, ​ December 31, ​ 2022 2021 Outstanding balance ​ $ 5,766 ​ $ 9,802 Carrying amount ​ 3,879 ​ 6,558 ​ 18 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q In the second quarter 2022, the Corporation received repayments on PCI loans in excess of previous carrying amounts, resulting in income of $ 14,000 as compared to $ 18,000 in the second quarter 2021. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, the Corporation received repayments on PCI loans in excess of previous carrying amounts, resulting in income of $ 1,412,000 as compared to $ 18,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. These amounts are included in interest and fees on taxable loans in the unaudited consolidated statements of income. The Corporation maintains an allowance for loan losses that represents management’s estimate of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and recorded as a reduction of the investment in loans. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on the Corporation’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. In the process of evaluating the loan portfolio, management also considers the Corporation’s exposure to losses from unfunded loan commitments. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, management determined that no allowance for credit losses related to unfunded loan commitments was required. Transactions within the allowance for loan losses, summarized by segment and class, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 ​ March 31, 2022 ​ ​ ​ June 30, 2022 (In Thousands) Balance Charge-offs Recoveries Provision (Credit) Balance Allowance for Loan Losses: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial loans secured by real estate ​ $ 5,017 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 0 ​ $ ( 35 ) ​ $ 4,982 Commercial and industrial ​ 2,841 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 49 ) ​ 2,792 Commercial construction and land ​ 391 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 124 ​ 515 Loans secured by farmland ​ 129 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 17 ) ​ 112 Multi-family (5 or more) residential ​ 367 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 28 ) ​ 339 Agricultural loans ​ 27 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 4 ) ​ 23 Other commercial loans ​ 150 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 19 ) ​ 131 Total commercial ​ 8,922 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 28 ) ​ 8,894 Residential mortgage: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential mortgage loans - first liens ​ ​ 3,810 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 1 ​ ​ ( 122 ) ​ ​ 3,689 Residential mortgage loans - junior liens ​ 181 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 1 ) ​ 180 Home equity lines of credit ​ 306 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 2 ​ 308 1-4 Family residential construction ​ 148 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 67 ​ 215 Total residential mortgage ​ 4,445 ​ 0 ​ 1 ​ ( 54 ) ​ ​ 4,392 Consumer ​ 237 ​ ( 41 ) ​ 8 ​ 57 ​ 261 Unallocated ​ 667 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 333 ​ 1,000 Total Allowance for Loan Losses ​ $ 14,271 ​ $ ( 41 ) ​ $ 9 ​ $ 308 ​ $ 14,547 ​ 19 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 ​ March 31, 2021 ​ ​ ​ June 30, 2021 (In Thousands) Balance Charge-offs Recoveries Provision (Credit) Balance Allowance for Loan Losses: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial loans secured by real estate ​ $ 3,350 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 2 ​ $ 100 ​ $ 3,452 Commercial and industrial ​ 2,187 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 594 ​ 2,781 Commercial construction and land ​ 476 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 24 ) ​ 452 Loans secured by farmland ​ 111 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 2 ​ 113 Multi-family (5 or more) residential ​ 255 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 105 ) ​ 150 Agricultural loans ​ 26 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 1 ) ​ 25 Other commercial loans ​ 159 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 14 ) ​ 145 Total commercial ​ 6,564 ​ 0 ​ 2 ​ 552 ​ 7,118 Residential mortgage: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential mortgage loans - first liens ​ ​ 3,507 ​ ​ ( 11 ) ​ ​ 1 ​ ​ 39 ​ ​ 3,536 Residential mortgage loans - junior liens ​ 334 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 7 ) ​ 327 Home equity lines of credit ​ 281 ​ 0 ​ 1 ​ 12 ​ 294 1-4 Family residential construction ​ 78 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 120 ​ 198 Total residential mortgage ​ 4,200 ​ ( 11 ) ​ 2 ​ 164 ​ 4,355 Consumer ​ 220 ​ ( 36 ) ​ 13 ​ 34 ​ 231 Unallocated ​ 677 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ( 6 ) ​ 671 Total Allowance for Loan Losses ​ $ 11,661 ​ $ ( 47 ) ​ $ 17 ​ $ 744 ​ $ 12,375 ​ For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the provision for loan losses was $ 308,000 , a decrease in expense of $ 436,000 as compared to $ 744,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

In determining the larger loan relationships for detailed assessment under the specific allowance component, the Corporation uses an internal risk rating system. Under the risk rating system, the Corporation classifies problem or potential problem loans as “Special Mention,” “Substandard,” or “Doubtful” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values. Substandard loans include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as Doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loans that do not currently expose the Corporation to sufficient risk to warrant classification as Substandard or Doubtful, but possess weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention, are deemed to be Special Mention. Risk ratings are updated any time that conditions or the situation warrants. Loans not classified are included in the “Pass” column in the table that follows. 21 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q The following tables summarize the aggregate credit quality classification of outstanding loans by risk rating as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ June 30, 2022 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Purchased ​ ​ (In Thousands) ​ ​ ​ ​ Special ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Credit ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Pass ​ Mention ​ Substandard ​ Doubtful ​ Impaired ​ Total Commercial: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial loans secured by real estate ​ $ 631,192 ​ $ 7,558 ​ $ 14,367 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 3,775 ​ $ 656,892 Commercial and Industrial ​ 159,902 ​ 8,370 ​ 3,691 ​ 0 ​ 36 ​ 171,999 Paycheck Protection Program -

The Corporation is entitled to redeem the Subordinated Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after June 1, 2026, and to redeem the Subordinated Notes at any time in whole upon certain other events. Any redemption of the Subordinated Notes will be subject to prior regulatory approval to the extent required. The Subordinated Notes are not subject to redemption at the option of the holders. The Subordinated Notes are unsecured, subordinated obligations of the Corporation only and are not obligations of, and are not guaranteed by, any subsidiary of the Corporation. The Subordinated Notes rank junior in right to payment to the Corporation's current and future senior indebtedness, including the Senior Notes (described above). The Subordinated Notes are intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes. The Subordinated Notes were recorded, net of debt issuance costs of $ 563,000 , at an initial carrying amount of $ 24,437,000 . Debt issuance costs are amortized through June 1, 2026 as an adjustment of the effective interest rate. Amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the Subordinated Notes totaling $ 26,000 in the second quarter 2022 and $ 52,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, and $ 13,000 in the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021, was included in interest expense in the unaudited consolidated statements of income.

Total stock-based compensation expense attributable to restricted stock awards amounted to $ 413,000 in the second quarter 2022 and $ 284,000 in the second quarter 2021. Total stock-based compensation expense attributable to restricted stock awards amounted to $ 781,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 and $ 625,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. ​ 10. CONTINGENCIES In the normal course of business, the Corporation is subject to pending and threatened litigation in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. In management’s opinion, the Corporation’s financial position and results of operations would not be materially affected by the outcome of these legal proceedings. 11. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Corporation is a party to derivative financial instruments. These financial instruments consist of interest rate swap agreements which contain master netting and collateral provisions designed to protect the party at risk. Interest rate swaps with commercial loan banking customers were executed to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Under the terms of these arrangements, the commercial banking customers effectively exchanged their floating interest rate exposures on loans into fixed interest rate exposures. Those interest rate swaps have been simultaneously economically hedged by offsetting interest rate swaps with a third party, such that the Corporation has effectively exchanged its fixed interest rate exposures for floating rate exposures. These derivatives are not designated as hedges and are not speculative. Rather, these derivatives result from a service provided to certain customers. As the interest rate swaps associated with this program do not meet the hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and the offsetting swaps are recognized directly in earnings. The aggregate notional amount of interest rate swaps was $ 115,050,000 at June 30, 2022 and $ 123,094,000 at December 31, 2021. There were no interest rate swaps originated in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. There were no gross amounts of interest rate swap-related assets and liabilities not offset in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022. The net impact on the consolidated statements of income from interest rate swaps was a reduction in interest income on loans of $ 220,000 in the second quarter 2022 and $ 537,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to a reduction in interest income on loans of $ 340,000 in the second quarter 2021 and $ 678,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2021. 31 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q The table below presents the fair value of the Corporation’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (In Thousands) At June 30, 2022 ​ At December 31, 2021 ​ Asset Derivatives ​ Liability Derivatives ​ Asset Derivatives ​ Liability Derivatives ​ Notional ​ Fair ​ Notional ​ Fair ​ Notional ​ Fair ​ Notional ​ Fair ​ Amount ​ Value (1) ​ Amount ​ Value (2) ​ Amount ​ Value (1) ​ Amount ​ Value (2) Interest rate swap agreements $ 57,525 ​ $ 1,619 ​ $ 57,525 ​ $ 1,619 ​ $ 61,547 ​ $ 3,104 ​ $ 61,547 ​ $ 3,104 ​ (1) Included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. (2) Included in accrued interest and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation’s agreement with its derivative counterparty provides that if the Corporation defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Corporation could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. Further, if the Corporation were to fail to maintain its status as a well or adequately capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Corporation would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements. Available-for-sale securities with a carrying value of $ 2,338,000 were pledged as collateral against the Corporation’s obligations related to the interest rate swaps at June 30, 2022. 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Corporation measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” establishes a framework for measuring fair value that includes a hierarchy used to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in determining valuations into three levels. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 – Fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Corporation for identical assets or liabilities. These generally provide the most reliable evidence and are used to measure fair value whenever available. Level 2 – Fair value is based on significant inputs, other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability through corroboration with observable market data. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities and other observable inputs. Level 3 – Fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs. Examples of valuation methodologies that would result in Level 3 classification include option pricing models, discounted cash flows and other similar techniques. The Corporation monitors and evaluates available data relating to fair value measurements on an ongoing basis and recognizes transfers among the levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the date of an event or change in circumstances that affects the valuation method chosen. Examples of such changes may include the market for a particular asset or liability becoming active or inactive, changes in the availability of quoted prices, or changes in the availability of other market data. 32 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the valuation methods used are as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ June 30, 2022 ​ Quoted ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Prices ​ Other ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ in Active ​ Observable ​ Unobservable ​ Total ​ ​ Markets ​ Inputs ​ Inputs ​ Fair (In Thousands) ​ (Level 1) ​ (Level 2) ​ (Level 3) ​ Value Recurring fair value measurements, assets: ​ ​ ​ ​ AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE DEBT SECURITIES: ​ ​ ​ ​ Obligations of the U.S. Treasury ​ $ 35,774 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 35,774 Obligations of U.S. Government agencies ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 22,785 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 22,785 Bank holding company debt securities ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 27,415 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 27,415 Obligations of states and political subdivisions: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Tax-exempt ​ 0 ​ 139,400 ​ 0 ​ 139,400 Taxable ​ 0 ​ 63,898 ​ 0 ​ 63,898 Mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies or sponsored agencies: ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential pass-through securities ​ 0 ​ 106,043 ​ 0 ​ 106,043 Residential collateralized mortgage obligations ​ 0 ​ 44,761 ​ 0 ​ 44,761 Commercial mortgage-backed securities ​ 0 ​ 86,761 ​ 0 ​ 86,761 Total available-for-sale debt securities ​ 35,774 ​ 491,063 ​ 0 ​ 526,837 Marketable equity security ​ 895 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 895 Servicing rights ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 2,640 ​ 2,640 Interest rate swap agreements, assets ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 1,619 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 1,619 Total recurring fair value measurements, assets ​ $ 36,669 ​ $ 492,682 ​ $ 2,640 ​ $ 531,991 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Recurring fair value measurements, liabilities, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Interest rate swap agreements, liabilities ​ $ 0 ​ $ 1,619 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 1,619 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Nonrecurring fair value measurements, assets: ​ ​ ​ ​ Impaired loans, net ​ $ 0 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 2,965 ​ $ 2,965 Foreclosed assets held for sale ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 505 ​ 505 Total nonrecurring fair value measurements, assets ​ $ 0 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 3,470 ​ $ 3,470 ​ 33 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ December 31, 2021 ​ Quoted ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Prices ​ Other ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ in Active ​ Observable ​ Unobservable ​ Total ​ ​ Markets ​ Inputs ​ Inputs ​ Fair (In Thousands) ​ (Level 1) ​ (Level 2) ​ (Level 3) ​ Value Recurring fair value measurements, assets: ​ ​ ​ ​ AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE DEBT SECURITIES: ​ ​ ​ ​ Obligations of the U.S. Treasury ​ $ 24,912 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 24,912 Obligations of U.S. Government agencies ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 24,091 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 24,091 Bank holding company debt securities ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 17,987 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 17,987 Obligations of states and political subdivisions: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Tax-exempt ​ 0 ​ 148,028 ​ 0 ​ 148,028 Taxable ​ 0 ​ 72,765 ​ 0 ​ 72,765 Mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies or sponsored agencies: ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential pass-through securities ​ 0 ​ 98,181 ​ 0 ​ 98,181 Residential collateralized mortgage obligations ​ 0 ​ 44,247 ​ 0 ​ 44,247 Commercial mortgage-backed securities ​ 0 ​ 87,468 ​ 0 ​ 87,468 Total available-for-sale debt securities ​ 24,912 ​ 492,767 ​ 0 ​ 517,679 Marketable equity security ​ 971 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 971 Servicing rights ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 2,329 ​ 2,329 Interest rate swap agreements, assets ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 3,104 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 3,104 Total recurring fair value measurements, assets ​ $ 25,883 ​ $ 495,871 ​ $ 2,329 ​ $ 524,083 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Recurring fair value measurements, liabilities, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Interest rate swap agreements, liabilities ​ $ 0 ​ $ 3,104 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 3,104 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Nonrecurring fair value measurements, assets: ​ ​ ​ ​ Impaired loans, net ​ $ 0 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 5,800 ​ $ 5,800 Foreclosed assets held for sale ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 684 ​ 684 Total nonrecurring fair value measurements, assets ​ $ 0 ​ $ 0 ​ $ 6,484 ​ $ 6,484 ​ Management’s evaluation and selection of valuation techniques and the unobservable inputs used in determining the fair values of assets valued using Level 3 methodologies include sensitive assumptions.

Foreclosed 35 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q assets held for sale consist of real estate acquired by foreclosure. For impaired commercial loans secured by real estate and foreclosed assets held for sale, estimated fair values are determined primarily using values from third-party appraisals. Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value. The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property.

In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. Certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments are excluded from disclosure requirements. Therefore, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not represent the underlying fair value of the Corporation. 36 Table of Contents CITIZENS & NORTHERN CORPORATION – FORM 10-Q The estimated fair values, and related carrying amounts, of the Corporation’s financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value are as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (In Thousands) ​ Fair Value ​ June 30, 2022 ​ December 31, 2021 ​ ​ Hierarchy ​ Carrying ​ Fair ​ Carrying ​ Fair ​ Level Amount Value Amount Value Financial assets: ​ ​ ​ ​ Cash and cash equivalents Level 1 ​ $ 60,337 ​ $ 60,337 ​ $ 95,848 ​ $ 95,848 Certificates of deposit Level 2 ​ 8,850 ​ 8,532 ​ 9,100 ​ 9,142 Restricted equity securities (included in Other Assets) Level 2 ​ 13,693 ​ 13,693 ​ 9,562 ​ 9,562 Loans, net Level 3 ​ 1,643,057 ​ 1,640,553 ​ 1,551,312 ​ 1,573,955 Accrued interest receivable Level 2 ​ 7,740 ​ 7,740 ​ 7,235 ​ 7,235 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Financial liabilities: ​ ​ ​ ​ Deposits with no stated maturity Level 2 ​ 1,665,866 ​ 1,665,866 ​ 1,639,167 ​ 1,639,167 Time deposits Level 2 ​ 298,404 ​ 298,432 ​ 285,893 ​ 286,962 Short-term borrowings Level 2 ​ 90,042 ​ 89,720 ​ 1,803 ​ 1,603 Long-term borrowings Level 2 ​ 36,791 ​ 36,524 ​ 28,042 ​ 28,347 Senior debt ​ Level 2 ​ ​ 14,733 ​ ​ 12,355 ​ ​ 14,701 ​ ​ 15,016 Subordinated debt ​ Level 2 ​ ​ 24,553 ​ ​ 20,639 ​ ​ 33,009 ​ ​ 33,171 Accrued interest payable Level 2 ​ 179 ​ 179 ​ 205 ​ 205 ​ The Corporation has commitments to extend credit and has issued standby letters of credit.
