PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The disclosures set forth in this Item are qualified by the section captioned "Special Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" contained in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and other cautionary statements set forth elsewhere in this report.
Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.
Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. is a financial holding company incorporated in August 1991 in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned bank and nonbank subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as "Mid Penn" or the "Corporation." On December 31, 1991, Mid Penn acquired, as part of the holding company formation, all of the outstanding common stock of Mid Penn Bank, referred to herein as "The Bank", and the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Penn. In addition to Mid Penn Bank, Mid Penn maintains five wholly-owned nonbanks subsidiaries: MPB Financial Services, LLC, which serves as the mid-tier holding company for MPB Risk Services, LLC, a licensed insurance producer, MPB Wealth Management, LLC (which ceased operating during the first quarter of 2024), and MPB Launchpad Fund I, LLC, which was formed to hold certain financial holding company eligible investments; and MPB Realty Holding, LLC, which was formed for purposes of holding certain assets acquired for debts previously contracted. As of December 31, 2024, the accounts and activities of these nonbank subsidiaries were not material to warrant separate disclosure or segment reporting. Mid Penn’s primary business is to supervise and coordinate the business of the Bank and its nonbank subsidiaries, and to provide them with the capital and resources to fulfill their respective missions.
Mid Penn’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations consist almost entirely of that of the Bank, which is managed as a single business segment. At December 31, 2024, Mid Penn had total consolidated assets of $5.5 billion with total deposits of $4.7 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $655.0 million. The holding company and its nonbank subsidiaries currently do not own or lease any real property. The Bank owns or leases the banking offices as identified in Part I, Item 2.
Mid Penn Bank
Mid Penn Bank was organized in 1868 under a predecessor name, Millersburg Bank, and became a state-chartered bank in 1931. Millersburg Bank obtained trust powers in 1935, at which time its name was changed to Millersburg Trust Company. In 1971, Millersburg Trust Company adopted the name "Mid Penn Bank". Mid Penn’s legal headquarters are located at 2407 Park Drive, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17110, and the Bank’s legal headquarters are located at 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061.
On March 1, 2015, in connection with the acquisition of Phoenix Bancorp, Inc. ("Phoenix") by Mid Penn, Phoenix’s wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Miners Bank, was merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank being the surviving charter.
On January 8, 2018, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company ("Scottdale") through the merger of Scottdale with and into the Bank (the "Scottdale Merger"). The Scottdale Merger resulted in the addition of five branches in Western Pennsylvania operating as "Scottdale Bank & Trust, a Division of Mid Penn Bank".
On July 31, 2018, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of First Priority Financial Corp. pursuant to which First Priority was merged with and into Mid Penn (the "First Priority Merger"), with Mid Penn being the surviving corporation in the First Priority Merger. As part of this acquisition, First Priority’s banking subsidiary, First Priority Bank, was merged with and into the Bank. The First Priority Merger resulted in the addition of eight offices in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
On November 30, 2021, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of Riverview Financial Corporation, the holding company for Riverview Bank, through the merger of Riverview with and into Mid Penn. In connection with the Riverview Acquisition , Riverview Bank was merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank as the surviving institution.

On May 19, 2023, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of Brunswick through the merger of Brunswick with and into Mid Penn with Mid Penn being the surviving corporation. In connection with this acquisition, Brunswick Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brunswick, merged with and into Mid Penn Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Penn. This transaction included the acquisition of five branches and extended Mid Penn's footprint into Middlesex and Monmouth counties in central New Jersey.
On July 31, 2024, Mid Penn acquired the insurance business and related accounts of, Commonwealth Benefits Group, a full-service employee benefits firm that served mid to large employers across central and eastern Pennsylvania, northern Maryland, and northern Virginia, for a purchase price of $2.0 million at closing and an additional $800 thousand potentially payable pursuant to a three year earnout.
On October 31, 2024, Mid Penn entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with William Penn Bancorporation pursuant to which William Penn will merge with and into Mid Penn in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $107 million, based on Mid Penn’s closing stock price as of October 30, 2024. The Merger has been approved unanimously by each company’s board of directors and is expected to close in the first half of 2025. Completion of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals and the approval of Mid Penn and William Penn shareholders.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, shareholders of William Penn will have the right to receive, for each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of William Penn, 0.426 shares of Mid Penn common stock (the “Exchange Ratio”) and cash in lieu of fractional shares, subject to adjustment and proration as described in the Merger Agreement.
Additional information related to the recent acquisitions can be found in "Note 2 - Business Combinations", to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part II, Item of this report.
As of December 31, 2024, the Bank operates 42 full-service retail banking locations in the Pennsylvania counties of Berks, Blair, Bucks, Chester, Clearfield, Cumberland, Dauphin, Fayette, Huntingdon, Lancaster, Lehigh, Luzerne, Montgomery, Perry, Schuylkill and Westmoreland, along with 3 full-service retail banking locations in the New Jersey counties of Middlesex and Monmouth. One new full-service retail banking location opened in Camden County, New Jersey in January 2025.
Mid Penn’s primary business consists of attracting deposits and loans from the Bank’s network of community banking offices. The Bank engages in full-service commercial banking and trust business, making available to the community a wide range of financial services, including, but not limited to, mortgage and home equity loans, secured and unsecured commercial and consumer loans, lines of credit, construction financing, farm loans, community development and local government loans and various types of time and demand deposits. The Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation supervise the Bank. Deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC’s Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF") to the maximum extent provided by law. In addition, the Bank provides a full range of trust and retail investment services. The Bank also offers other services such as online banking, telephone banking, cash management services, automated teller services and safe deposit boxes.
Business Strategy
The Bank provides services to commercial businesses and real estate investors, consumers, nonprofit organizations, and municipalities through its 45 full-service retail banking properties, one loan production office, one wealth management office, two corporate administrations offices, and one operations facility, primarily based in Pennsylvania. Mid Penn’s primary markets reflect a diversified manufacturing and services base across sixteen Pennsylvania counties and two counties in New Jersey, including having several offices in and around the state capital region of Harrisburg. The Bank emphasizes developing long-term customer relationships, maintaining high quality service, and providing prompt responses to customer needs. Mid Penn believes that local relationship building and its prudent approach to lending are important factors in the success and growth of Mid Penn.

Human Capital
The majority of employees of the Corporation are employed by the Bank, with a shared services agreement to support the operation of the holding company. As of December 31, 2024, the Bank had 591 full-time and 23 part-time employees. Additionally, Mid Penn’s nonbank subsidiaries employed 9 full-time employees and 1 part-time employee as of December 31, 2024. The Corporation and its employees are not subject to a collective bargaining agreement and the Corporation believes it enjoys good relations with its employees.
Diversity & Inclusion
The Corporation believes that a diverse and inclusive workforce fosters an environment where everyone can thrive and be successful. As of December 31, 2024, approximately 65% of our workforce is female. Bank leadership has seen the benefits of Employee Resource Groups ("ERG") within our organization. In 2022, Mid Penn formalized committee members on our Women’s Leadership Network, Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion ("DEI"), and our Culture Committees. Throughout 2024, the entire organization has benefited from the contributions of these groups. Each group allows employees to come together based on shared characteristics to address common challenges and to drive positive impact within the workforce. We have found that our Women’s Leadership Network has provided a sense of belonging and camaraderie for our primarily female workforce. The Women’s Leadership group has expanded its reach by creating a subgroup called MPB Moms. This group serves as a community for mothers to connect, share like experiences and offer support to each other as they balance their personal and professional lives. Our DEI group has laid the groundwork to help create a more diverse and inclusive workplace by promoting understanding, respect, and awareness of different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. Our Culture Committee has focused on contributing to a positive organizational culture by fostering open communication, collaboration, and a sense of community; this sense of community is important to Mid Penn as we continue to expand geographically. The Culture Committee also supports wellness initiatives by creating initiatives, programs, and resources to encourage physical, mental, and emotional wellness. The committee aims to support healthy work-life balance, understand and better utilize our benefit programs, and foster a positive, wellness-oriented workplace culture. We have found that employees who belong to any of our ERGs are more engaged, are developing leadership skills, and are gaining new experiences through volunteer and networking opportunities.
Education and Development
We encourage and support the growth and development of our employees and, wherever possible, seek to fill positions by promotion within the organization. The education and development of our employees is a priority, and we continue to invest in tools, education programs, certifications, and continuing education to help our employees build their knowledge, skills and experience. We provide in-house training to employees on a variety of topics, including leadership and professional development, cybersecurity, risk, compliance, and technology.
Benefits
On an ongoing basis, we promote the health and wellness of our employees by strongly encouraging work-life balance. Our benefits package includes health care coverage, retirement benefits, life and disability insurance, tuition-reimbursement, parental leave, wellness programs, and paid time off.
Retention
Employee retention helps us operate efficiently and offers continuity to our customers and the community. We believe our concern for our employees’ well-being, supporting our employees’ career goals, offering competitive wages, and providing valuable benefits aids in retention of our employees.
Community Involvement
The Bank is dedicated to supporting charitable community organizations through corporate donations, employee volunteerism and fundraising. In 2024, our employees demonstrated their commitment to our communities by personally giving more than $69 thousand to charitable organizations within Mid Penn’s footprint through our Dress Down Friday program.

Lending Activities
The Bank offers a variety of loan products to its customers, including commercial real estate loans, residential real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and consumer loans. The Bank’s primary lending objectives are as follows:
• to establish relationships with creditworthy customers who exhibit positive historical repayment trends, stable cash flows and secondary sources of repayment from tangible collateral;
• to establish a diversified loan portfolio; and
• to provide a satisfactory return to Mid Penn’s shareholders by properly pricing loans to include the cost of funds, administrative costs, bad debts, local economic conditions, competition, customer relationships, the term of the loan, credit risk, collateral quality, and a reasonable profit margin.
Credit risk is managed through portfolio diversification, underwriting policies and procedures, and loan monitoring practices. Lenders are provided with detailed underwriting policies for all types of credit risks accepted by the Bank and must obtain appropriate internal approvals for credit extensions. The Bank also maintains strict documentation requirements and robust credit quality assurance practices in order to identify credit portfolio weaknesses as early as possible, so any exposures that are discovered might be mitigated or potential losses reduced. The Bank generally secures its loans with real estate, with such collateral values dependent and subject to change based on real estate market conditions within its market area. As of December 31, 2024, the Bank’s highest concentration of credit is in commercial real estate.
Investment Activities
Mid Penn’s securities portfolio is a source for both liquidity and interest earnings and serves to support pledging requirements on public funds deposits through investments in primarily higher-quality, fixed-income debt securities. Mid Penn does not have any significant non-governmental concentrations within its investment securities portfolio.
Mid Penn maintains both a held-to-maturity investment portfolio and an available-for-sale investment portfolio. Both portfolios are comprised primarily of lower-risk debt securities, including U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agencies, mortgage-backed U.S. government agencies, investment-grade municipal securities, and corporate bonds. The held-to-maturity portfolio was established to support the Bank’s growth in public fund deposits, which may require pledging of investment securities. The investments in the held-to-maturity portfolio are recorded on the balance sheet at book value (amortized cost), while the available-for-sale securities are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. These debt securities derive fair values relative to investments of the same type and credit profile with similar maturity dates. As the interest rate environment changes, Mid Penn’s fair value of securities will change. This difference between the amortized cost and fair value of available-for-sale investment securities, or unrealized loss, amounted to $24.3 million as of December 31, 2024. On an after-tax basis, this unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities resulted in a decrease to shareholders’ equity, through the accumulated other comprehensive loss component, of $1.6 million. As of December 31, 2024, there was no allowance for credit losses on either the held-to-maturity or available-for-sale investment portfolios. The majority of the investments are high quality United States and municipal securities that, if held to maturity, are expected to result in no realized loss to the Bank.
Deposits and Other Sources of Funds
The Bank primarily uses deposits and, to a lesser extent, wholesale borrowings to finance lending and investment activities. Wholesale borrowing sources include advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, overnight borrowings from the Bank’s other correspondent banking relationships, and advances from the Federal Reserve’s Discount Window.
All borrowings, except for lines of credit with the Bank’s correspondent banks, require collateral in the form of loans or securities. Collateral levels, therefore, limit the extent of borrowings and the available lines of credit extended by the Bank’s creditors. As a result, generating and retaining retail deposits remains critical to the future funding and growth of the business. Deposit growth within the banking industry has been subject to strong competition from a variety of financial services companies. This competition may require financial institutions to adjust their product offerings and pricing to maintain and grow deposits.
Additionally, the safety of traditional bank deposit products has remained an attractive option during periods of market volatility. Mid Penn’s ability to attract retail funds in the future will continue to be impacted by the public’s appetite for the safety of insured or local investments versus the returns offered by alternative choices as part of their personal investment mix.

MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Competition
The financial services and banking business is highly competitive, and the profitability of Mid Penn depends principally upon the Corporation’s ability to successfully compete in its market area. The Bank actively competes with other financial services companies for deposit, loan, trust and wealth management business. Competitors include other commercial banks, credit unions, savings banks, savings and loan associations, insurance companies, securities brokerage firms, finance companies, mutual funds, and product/service alternatives via the Internet. Financial institutions compete primarily on the quality of services rendered, interest rates on loans and deposits, service charges, the convenience of banking facilities, location and hours of operation and, in the case of loans to larger commercial borrowers, relative lending limits.
Many competitors are larger than the Corporation and have significantly greater financial resources, personnel, and locations from which to conduct business. In addition, the Bank is subject to banking regulations while certain non-banking competitors may not be subject to similar regulations. For more information, see the "Supervision and Regulation" section below and Item 1A, "Risk Factors".
Mid Penn has been able to compete effectively with other financial institutions by emphasizing customer-focused relationship management and services, convenient hours, efficient and friendly employees, a consultative sales approach, local decision making, and quality products.
Supervision and Regulation
General
Financial holding companies and banks are extensively regulated under both federal and state laws. The regulation and supervision of the Corporation and particularly the Bank are primarily focused on the protection of depositors, the DIF, and the monetary system, and do not prioritize shareholder interests. Enforcement actions that may be imposed by federal and state banking regulators include the imposition of a conservator or receiver, cease-and-desist orders and written agreements, the termination of insurance on deposits, the imposition of civil money penalties, and removal and prohibition orders. If a banking regulator takes any enforcement action, the value of an equity investment in Mid Penn could be substantially reduced or eliminated. As of December 31, 2024, the Corporation was not subject to any supervisory enforcement actions.
Federal and state banking laws contain numerous provisions affecting various aspects of the business and operations of Mid Penn and the Bank. Mid Penn is subject to, among others, the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"). The Bank is subject to, among others, the regulations of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the FDIC. The descriptions below of, and references to, applicable statutes and regulations are not intended to be complete lists or reflective of all applicable provisions or their effects on the Corporation. They are summaries of the more significant laws and regulations and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete provisions of such statutes and regulations.
Holding Company Regulation
Mid Penn is a registered financial holding company subject to supervision and regulation by the Federal Reserve. As such, it is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 ("BHCA") and many of the Federal Reserve’s regulations promulgated thereunder. The Federal Reserve has broad enforcement powers over financial and bank holding companies, including the power to impose substantial fines and civil penalties.
The BHCA requires Mid Penn to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve regarding the holding company and its subsidiary bank. The Federal Reserve also conducts examinations of the holding company. The Bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System; however, the Federal Reserve possesses cease-and-desist powers over financial and bank holding companies and their subsidiaries where actions would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice or violation of law. The Federal Reserve also makes policy that applies to the declaration and distribution of dividends by financial and bank holding companies.
The BHCA restricts a financial or bank holding company’s ability to acquire control of additional banks. In addition, the BHCA restricts the activities in which financial or bank holding companies may engage directly or through nonbank subsidiaries.

MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act
Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act ("GLB"), bank holding companies that meet certain management, capital, and Community Reinvestment Act standards, are permitted to elect to become financial holding companies. No prior regulatory approval will be required for a financial holding company to acquire a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in certain financial activities permitted under GLB. Activities cited by GLB as being financial in nature include:
• securities underwriting, dealing and market making;
• sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies;
• insurance underwriting and agency;
• merchant banking activities; and
• activities that the Federal Reserve has determined by regulation to be closely related to banking.
In addition to permitting financial holding companies’ entry into new lines of business, the law allows companies the freedom to streamline existing operations and to potentially reduce costs. The GLB may increase both opportunity and competition.
In December 2019, Mid Penn made the election to be treated as a financial holding company as its subsidiary bank was well capitalized under the FDIC Improvement Act’s prompt corrective action provisions, the holding company and Bank were deemed by the regulators to be well managed, and the Bank had at least a satisfactory rating under the Community Reinvestment Act. The required filing supporting this election was a declaration that the bank holding company wished to become a financial holding company and met all applicable requirements. Mid Penn made the election given the Corporation’s growth and the intended broadening spectrum of financial product and service offerings to potentially include, but not be limited to, insurance and wealth management services.
Bank Regulation
As a Pennsylvania-chartered, non-member bank, the Bank is subject to supervision, regulation, and examination by both the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the FDIC. The deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law. The FDIC assesses deposit insurance premiums, the amount of which depends in part on both the asset size and the condition of the Bank. Moreover, the FDIC may terminate deposit insurance of the Bank under certain circumstances. The federal and state banking regulatory agencies have broad enforcement powers over depository institutions under their jurisdiction, including the power to terminate deposit insurance, to impose fines and other civil and criminal penalties, and to appoint a conservator or receiver if any of a number of conditions is met. In addition, the Bank is subject to a variety of local, state, and federal laws that affect its operations.
Banking regulations affect a wide range of the Bank’s activities and operations, including, but not limited to, permissible types and amounts of loans, investments and other activities, capital adequacy, branching, interest rates on loans, compensation standards, payment of dividends, various bank account and bank service disclosures, and the safety and soundness of banking practices.
Capital Requirements, Prompt Corrective Action and Basel III Capital Reforms
Under risk-based capital requirements for financial or bank holding companies, Mid Penn is required to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance-sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) of 10.5%. At least half of the total capital is to be composed of common equity, retained earnings and qualifying perpetual preferred stock, less goodwill ("Tier 1 Capital"). The remainder may consist of subordinated debt, non-qualifying preferred stock, and a limited amount of the loan loss allowance ("Tier 2 Capital"). Combined, the Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital comprise regulatory "Total Capital". As of December 31, 2024, Mid Penn complied with these risk-based capital requirements.
In addition, the Federal Reserve has established minimum leverage ratio requirements for bank holding companies. These requirements provide for a minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 Capital to adjusted average quarterly assets ("leverage ratio") equal to 3% for bank holding companies that meet certain specified criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating. All other bank holding companies will generally be required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4-5%. The requirements also provide that bank holding companies experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels without significant reliance on intangible assets. Furthermore, the requirements indicate that the Federal Reserve will continue to consider a "Tangible Tier 1
9
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Leverage Ratio" (deducting all intangibles) in evaluating proposals for expansion or new activity. As of December 31, 2024, Mid Penn has met these leverage requirements, and the Federal Reserve has not advised Mid Penn of any specific minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio requirement.
The Bank is subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the FDIC, and as of December 31, 2024, the Bank’s capital levels were sufficient to be considered "well-capitalized". The FDIC has not advised the Bank of any specific minimum leverage ratios.
The capital ratios of Mid Penn and the Bank are described in "Note 17 - Regulatory Matters" , within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included herein.
Banking regulators may further refine capital requirements applicable to banking organizations, including those discussed in the "Regulatory Capital Changes" section below. Changes to capital requirements could materially affect the profitability of Mid Penn or the fair value of Mid Penn stock.
In addition to the required minimum capital levels described above, federal law establishes a system of "prompt corrective actions" which federal banking agencies are required to take, and certain actions which they have discretion to take, based upon the capital category into which a federally regulated depository institution falls. Regulations set forth detailed procedures and criteria for implementing prompt corrective action in the case of any institution that is not adequately capitalized. Under the rules, an institution will be deemed to be "adequately capitalized" if it exceeds the minimum federal regulatory capital requirements. However, it will be deemed "undercapitalized" if it fails to meet the minimum capital requirements, "significantly undercapitalized" if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio that is less than 6%, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio that is less than 3%, or a leverage ratio that is less than 3%, and "critically undercapitalized" if the institution has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2%.
The prompt corrective action rules require an undercapitalized institution to file a written capital restoration plan, along with a performance guaranty by its holding company or a third party. In addition, an undercapitalized institution becomes subject to certain automatic restrictions including a prohibition on payment of dividends, a limitation on asset growth and expansion, in certain cases, a limitation on the payment of bonuses or raises to senior executive officers, and a prohibition on the payment of certain "management fees" to any "controlling person". Institutions that are classified as undercapitalized are also subject to certain additional supervisory actions, including increased reporting burdens and regulatory monitoring, a limitation on the institution’s ability to make acquisitions, open new branch offices, or engage in new lines of business, obligations to raise additional capital, restrictions on transactions with affiliates, and restrictions on interest rates paid by the institution on deposits. In certain cases, bank regulatory agencies may require replacement of senior executive officers or directors, or sale of the institution to a willing purchaser. If an institution is deemed "critically undercapitalized" and continues in that category for four quarters, the statute requires, with certain limited exceptions, that the institution be placed in receivership.
Mid Penn and the Bank are subject to the Basel III Rules that are based upon the final framework of the Basel Committee for strengthening capital and liquidity regulation. Under the Basel III Rules, Mid Penn and the Bank apply the standardized approach in measuring risk weighted assets ("RWA") and regulatory capital.
Under the Basel III Rules, Mid Penn and the Bank are subject to the following minimum capital ratios:
• Common equity tier 1 capital ("CET1") to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%
• Tier 1 capital to RWA of 6.0%
• Total capital to RWA of 8.0%
• Leverage ratio of 4.0%
The Basel III Rules also included a "capital conservation buffer" of 2.5%, composed entirely of CET1, in addition to the minimum capital to RWA ratios outlined above, resulting in effective minimum common equity tier 1, Tier 1 and total capital ratios of 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a capital ratio above the minimum, but below the conservation buffer, will face restrictions on dividends, equity repurchases, and executive compensation based on the amount of the shortfall and the institution's "eligible retained income" (that is, four quarter trailing net income, net of distributions and tax effects not reflected in net income). As of December 31, 2024, the Corporation and the Bank exceeded the minimum capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffer, as prescribed in the Basel III Rules.
10
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
The Basel III Rules provide for a number of required deductions from and adjustments to CET1. These deductions and adjustments include, for example, goodwill, other intangible assets, and deferred tax assets ("DTAs") that arise from net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards net of any related valuation allowance. DTAs arising from temporary differences that could not be realized through net operating loss carrybacks and investments in non-consolidated financial institutions must also be deducted from CET1 to the extent that they exceed certain thresholds. Through subsequent rulemaking, the federal banking agencies provided certain forms of relief to banking organizations, such as Mid Penn and the Bank, that are not subject to the advanced approaches framework. Mid Penn and the Bank made a one-time, permanent election under the Basel III Rules to exclude the effects of certain components of accumulated ("AOCI") included in shareholders' equity under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") in determining regulatory capital ratios.
Under the Basel III Rules, certain off-balance sheet commitments and obligations are converted into RWA, that together with on-balance sheet assets, are the base against which regulatory capital is measured. The Basel III Rules defined the risk-weighting categories for bank holding companies and banks that follow the standardized approach, such as Mid Penn and the Bank, based on a risk-sensitive analysis, depending on the nature of the exposure.
The Capital Simplifications Rules eliminated the standalone prior approval requirement in the Basel III Rules for any repurchase of common stock. In certain circumstances, repurchases of our common stock may be subject to a prior approval or notice requirement under other regulations or policies of the Federal Reserve. Any redemption or repurchase of preferred stock or subordinated debt remains subject to the prior approval of the Federal Reserve.
Safety and Soundness Standards
The federal banking regulatory agencies have adopted a set of guidelines prescribing safety and soundness standards for depository institutions such as the Bank. The guidelines establish general standards relating to management practices, internal controls and information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, asset quality, liquidity, capital, earnings, compensation, fees, and benefits. In general, the guidelines require, among other things, appropriate systems and practices to identify and manage the risks and exposures specified in the guidelines. The guidelines prohibit excessive compensation as an unsafe and unsound practice and describe compensation as excessive when the amounts paid are unreasonable or disproportionate to the services performed by an executive officer, employee, director, or principal shareholder.
In addition, the agencies adopted regulations that authorize an agency to order an institution that has been given notice by an agency that it is not satisfying any of such safety and soundness standards to submit a compliance plan. If an institution is not satisfying certain safety and soundness standards and fails to submit to the banking regulatory agency an acceptable compliance plan or fails to implement an accepted plan, the agency may issue an order directing action to correct the deficiency and may issue an order directing other actions be taken, including restricting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid on deposits, restricting dividend payments to shareholders, and requiring an increase in the institution’s ratio of tangible equity to assets. For the periods reported in this Form 10-K and in the period subsequent to December 31, 2024, up to the date of the filing of this Form 10-K, Mid Penn was not subject to any such bank regulatory orders.
Commercial Real Estate Guidance
Federal agencies released additional guidance in July 2023, in response to the increased commercial real estate ("CRE") concentrations that have occurred in recent years. The guidance identifies institutions that are potentially exposed to significant CRE concentration risk as those who have experienced rapid growth in CRE lending, have notable exposures to a specific type of CRE, or are approaching, or exceed the following supervisory criteria:
• Total loans reported on the Report of Condition for construction, land development, and other land represent 100 percent or more of the institution’s total capital; or
• Total CRE loans as defined in the CRE guidance represent 300 percent or more of the institution’s total capital, and the outstanding balance of the institution’s CRE loan portfolio has increased by 50 percent or more during the prior 36 months.
11
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
If the Bank's portfolio exceeds the guidelines mentioned above, additional risk management practices may be needed. In the analysis of the CRE portfolio, the consideration of the following factors could mitigate the risk posed by the concentration:
• Portfolio diversification across property types;
• Geographic dispersion of CRE loans;
• Underwriting standards;
• Level of pre-sold units or other types of take-out commitments on construction loans; and
• Portfolio liquidity.
Banks that have experienced significant growth in their CRE lending will receive closer regulatory review than those that have not.
Mid Penn's underwriting process for commercial real estate loans includes analysis of the financial position and strength of both the borrower and, if applicable, guarantor, experience with similar projects in the past, market demand and prospects for successful completion of the proposed project within the established budget and schedule, values of underlying collateral, availability of permanent financing, maximum loan-to-value ratios, minimum equity requirements, acceptable amortization periods and minimum debt service coverage requirements, based on property type. The borrower’s financial strength and capacity to repay their obligations remain the primary focus of underwriting. Financial strength is evaluated based upon analytical tools that consider historical and projected cash flows and performance, in addition to analysis of the proposed project for income-producing properties. Additional support offered by guarantors is also considered when applicable.
Commercial real estate loans increased 9.2% from December 31, 2023 to December 31, 2024. Commercial real estate loans were the largest driver of the $190.3 million growth in the total loan portfolio. Non-owner occupied commercial real estate loan exposure represents 28.2% of total loan balances and is primarily limited to suburban offices.
Payment of Dividends and Other Restrictions
Mid Penn’s holding company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its wholly-owned Bank subsidiary. There are various legal and regulatory limitations on the extent to which the Bank can, among other things, finance, or otherwise supply funds to the holding company. Specifically, dividends from the Bank are the principal source of the holding company’s cash funds, and there are certain legal restrictions under Pennsylvania law and Pennsylvania banking regulations on the payment of dividends by state-chartered banks. The relevant regulatory agencies also have authority to prohibit Mid Penn and the Bank from engaging in what, in the opinion of such regulatory body, constitutes an unsafe or unsound banking practice. Depending upon the financial condition of the holding company and the Bank, the payment of dividends could be deemed by a regulatory agency to constitute such an unsafe or unsound practice. The holding company and the Bank were not subject to any such dividend prohibitions during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.
Deposit Insurance
The FDIC insures deposits of the Bank through the DIF. The FDIC maintains the DIF by assessing depository institutions an insurance premium. The amount each institution is assessed is based upon a variety of factors that include the level of assets and tangible equity, and the condition of the Bank (the degree of risk the institution poses to the insurance fund). The FDIC insures deposits up to $250,000. The Bank pays an insurance premium into the DIF based on a regulatory defined assessment calculation. The FDIC uses a risk-based premium system that assesses higher rates on those institutions that pose greater risks to the DIF. The FDIC places each institution in one of four risk categories using a two-step process based first on capital ratios (the capital group assignment) and then on other relevant information (the supervisory group assignment). Subsequently, the rate for each institution within a risk category may be adjusted depending upon different factors that either enhance or reduce the risk the institution poses to the DIF, including the unsecured debt, secured liabilities and brokered deposits related to each institution. Finally, certain risk multipliers may be applied to the adjusted assessment.
Beginning with the second quarter of 2011 and as applicable continuously through to the current period, as mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act, the assessment base that the FDIC uses to calculate assessment premiums is the Bank’s average assets minus average tangible equity. As the asset base of the banking industry is larger than the deposit base, the range of assessment rates is a low of 2.5 bp and a high of 45 bp, per $100 of assets.
12
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
The FDIC was required under the Dodd-Frank Act to establish assessment rates that allowed the DIF to achieve a reserve ratio of 1.35% of Insurance Fund insured deposits by September 2020. In addition, the FDIC has established a long term goal of a "designated reserve ratio" of 2%, a target ratio that, until it is achieved, will not likely result in the FDIC reducing assessment rates.
The reserve ratio is currently below the minimum and in October 2022, the FDIC adopted a final rule to increase initial base deposit insurance assessment rates uniformly by 2 basis points with the intention of reaching the statutory minimum by September 30, 2028. These new rates will remain in effect until the reserve ratio meets or exceeds 2%.
Consumer Protection Laws
A number of laws govern the relationship between the Bank and its customers. For example, the Community Reinvestment Act is designed to encourage services, investments, and lending activities in low- and moderate-income areas. Federal Bank regulatory agencies passed a final rule in August 2023 to strengthen and modernize the regulations to better achieve the purposes of the law. These changes will begin to take effect on January 1, 2026.
The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act attempt to minimize lending decisions based on impermissible criteria, such as race or gender. The Truth-in-Lending Act and the Truth-in-Savings Act require banks to provide certain disclosure of relevant terms related to loans and savings accounts, respectively. Anti-tying restrictions (which prohibit conditioning the availability or terms of credit on the purchase of another banking product) further restrict the Bank’s relationships with its customers. The Bank maintains a comprehensive compliance management program to promote its compliance with these and other applicable consumer protection laws and regulations.
Privacy Laws
The federal banking regulators have issued a number of regulations governing the privacy of consumer financial and customer information. The regulations limit the disclosure by financial institutions, such as the Corporation and Bank, of nonpublic personal information about individuals who obtain financial products or services for personal, family, or household purposes. Subject to certain exceptions allowed by law, the regulations cover information sharing between financial institutions and nonaffiliated third parties. More specifically, the regulations require financial institutions to provide:
• initial notices to customers about their privacy policies, describing the conditions under which they may disclose nonpublic personal financial information to nonaffiliated third parties and affiliates;
• annual notices of their privacy policies to their current customers; and
• a reasonable method for consumers to "opt out" of disclosures to nonaffiliated third parties.
Affiliate Transactions
Transactions between the Bank and the Corporation, and/or its nonbank subsidiary affiliates are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. An "affiliate" of a bank or savings institution is any company or entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the bank or savings institution. Generally, a subsidiary of a depository institution that is not also a depository institution is not treated as an affiliate of the bank for purposes of Sections 23A and 23B. Sections 23A and 23B are intended to protect insured depository institutions from suffering losses arising from transactions with non-insured affiliates, by limiting the extent to which a bank or its subsidiaries may engage in covered transactions with any one affiliate and with all affiliates of the bank in the aggregate, and requiring that such transactions be on terms that are consistent with safe and sound banking practices.
The USA Patriot Act, Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Financing
The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 ("USA Patriot Act") broadened the application of anti-money laundering regulations to apply to additional types of financial institutions, such as broker-dealers, and strengthened the ability of the U.S. government to detect and prosecute international money laundering and the financing of terrorism. Under Title III of the USA Patriot Act, also known as the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorism Financing Act of 2001, all financial institutions, including Mid Penn and the Bank, are required in general to identify their customers, adopt formal and comprehensive anti-money laundering programs, scrutinize or prohibit altogether certain transactions of special concern, and be prepared to respond to
13
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
inquiries from U.S. law enforcement agencies concerning their customers and their transactions. The principal provisions of Title III of the USA Patriot Act require that regulated financial institutions, including state-chartered banks:
• establish an anti-money laundering program that includes training and audit components;
• comply with regulations regarding the verification of the identity of any person seeking to open an account;
• take additional required precautions with non-U.S. owned accounts; and
• perform certain verification and certification of money laundering risk for their foreign correspondent banking relationships.
Additional information sharing among financial institutions, regulators, and law enforcement authorities is encouraged for financial institutions that comply with this provision and the authorization of the Secretary of the Treasury to adopt rules to further encourage cooperation and information-sharing.
The USA Patriot Act also expanded the conditions under which funds in a U.S. interbank account may be subject to forfeiture and increased the penalties for violation of anti-money laundering regulations. Failure of a financial institution to comply with the USA Patriot Act’s requirements could have serious legal and reputational consequences for the institution. The effectiveness of a financial institution in combating money-laundering activities is a factor to be considered in any application submitted by the financial institution under the Bank Merger Act, which applies to the Bank.
The Bank has adopted policies, procedures, and controls to address compliance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act under the existing regulations and will continue to revise and update its policies, procedures and controls to reflect changes required by the USA Patriot Act and implementing regulations.
JOBS Act
In 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the "JOBS Act") became law. The JOBS Act is aimed at facilitating capital raising by smaller companies, banks, and bank holding companies. Certain changes implemented by the JOBS Act that impacted Mid Penn included (i) raising the threshold requiring registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") for banks and bank holdings companies from 500 to 2,000 holders of record, and (ii) raising the threshold for triggering deregistration under the Exchange Act for banks and bank holding companies from 300 to 1,200 holders of record.
Dodd-Frank Act
The Dodd-Frank Act, which became law in July 2010, significantly changed regulation of financial institutions and the financial services industry. Dodd-Frank created a Financial Services Oversight Council to identify emerging systemic risks and improve interagency cooperation, and centralized responsibility for consumer financial protection by creating a new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which is responsible for implementing, examining, and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws. Dodd-Frank also permanently raised the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount to $250,000, established strengthened capital standards for banks, disallowed certain trust preferred securities from qualifying as Tier 1 Capital (subject to certain grandfather provisions for existing trust preferred securities), established new minimum mortgage underwriting standards, granted the Federal Reserve the power to regulate debit card interchange fees, and implemented corporate governance changes.
Effects of Government Policy and Potential Changes in Regulation
Changes in regulations applicable to the Corporation, the Bank, or its nonbank subsidiaries, or shifts in monetary or other government policies, could have a material effect on our business. The Corporation’s business is also affected by the state of the financial services industry in general. As a result of legal, economic, and competitive changes, management believes that the Corporation and the financial services industry will continue to experience an increased rate of change from both the opportunities and competitive challenges resulting from greater product and service offerings, technological advancements, and business combinations.
From time to time, legislation is enacted that has the effect of increasing the compliance and operations requirements and the cost of doing business, changing the tax structure applicable to Mid Penn, limiting or expanding permissible activities, or affecting the competitive balance between banks and other financial institutions. Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the operations and taxation of banks, bank holding companies and other financial institutions are
14
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
frequently made in Congress and the various bank regulatory agencies. Mid Penn cannot predict the likelihood of any major changes or the impact such changes might have on Mid Penn, the Bank, or the nonbank subsidiaries. Congressional bills and other proposals could result in additional significant changes to the financial services and banking system, including, but not limited to, provisions for limitations on deposit insurance coverage, changing the timing and method financial institutions use to pay for deposit insurance, expanding the power of banks by removing the restrictions on bank underwriting activities, changing the regulation of bank derivatives activities, and allowing commercial enterprises to own banks. As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, the Bank’s business is particularly susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and regulations that may increase the costs of doing business or change the Corporation’s competitive landscape. Whether any future legislation will be enacted, or additional regulations will be adopted, and how they might impact Mid Penn, cannot be determined at this time.
Mid Penn’s earnings are, and will be affected by, domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve have had, and will likely continue to have, an impact on the operating results of commercial banks because of the Federal Reserve’s power to implement national monetary policy to, among other things, promote employment, control inflation or combat recession. The Federal Reserve has a major impact on the loan and deposit rates offered by the Bank and its competitors, and on the levels of bank loans, investments and deposits, through its open market operations in United States government securities and through its regulation of, among other things, the discount rate on borrowings of member banks and the reserve requirements against member bank deposits. It is not possible to reasonably predict the nature, amount, frequency, and impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.
Environmental Laws
Management does not anticipate that compliance with environmental laws and regulations will have any material effect on Mid Penn’s capital, expenditures, earnings, or competitive position. However, environmentally-related hazards have become a source of high risk and liability for some financial institutions.
Additionally, the Pennsylvania Economic Development Agency, Fiduciary and Lender Environmental Liability Protection Act provides, among other things, protection to lenders from environmental liability and remediation costs under the environmental laws for releases and contamination caused by others. A lender who engages in activities involved in the routine practices of commercial lending, including, but not limited to, the providing of financial services, holding of security interests, workout practices, foreclosure or the recovery of funds from the sale of property shall not be liable under the environmental acts or common law equivalents to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources or to any other person by virtue of the fact that the lender engages in such commercial lending practice. A lender, however, will be liable if it, its employees or agents, directly cause an immediate release or directly exacerbate a release of a regulated substance on or from the property, or knew and willfully compelled the borrower to commit an action which caused such release or to violate an environmental act. The Pennsylvania Economic Development Agency, Fiduciary and Lender Environmental Liability Protection Act does not limit federal liability, which still exists under certain circumstances.
Corporate Governance
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX") and related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC and NASDAQ addressed the following issues: corporate governance, auditor independence and accounting standards, executive compensation, insider loans, whistleblower protection, and enhanced and timely disclosure of corporate information. Mid Penn has established policies, procedures, and systems designed to promote compliance with these regulations. Section 404 of SOX requires publicly held companies to document, test and certify that their internal control systems over financial reporting are effective. Effective for year-end financial reports beginning with December 31, 2017, Mid Penn is subject to the independent attestation requirement under Section 404 of the SOX. The Bank remains subject to independent auditor attestation under FDIC regulation 363.3(b), which is a similar independent attestation requirement at the Bank level.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Before investing in Mid Penn common stock, an investor should carefully read and consider the risk factors described below, which are not intended to be all inclusive, and to review other information contained in this report and in our other filings with the SEC. We are subject to a number of risks potentially impacting our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. As a financial services company, certain elements of risk are inherent in what we do and the business decisions we make. Thus, we encounter risk as part of the normal course of our business, and we design risk management processes to help manage these risks. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing Mid Penn’s holding company, the Bank, and nonbank subsidiaries. Some of these risks and uncertainties are interrelated and the occurrence of one or more of them may exacerbate the effect of others. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are not aware of, or that we currently deem less significant, or that we are otherwise not specifically focused on, may also impact our business, results of operations, and our common stock. If any of these known or unknown risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. If this were to happen, the market price of our common stock could decline significantly, and an investor could lose all or part of his or her investment in Mid Penn.
Unless the context otherwise requires, references to "we," "us", "our," "Mid Penn", or "Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.," collectively refer to Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries, and specific references to the "Bank" refer to Mid Penn Bank, the wholly owned banking subsidiary of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.
Risks Related to Our Primary Business and Industry
Mid Penn is subject to interest rate risk.
Mid Penn’s earnings and cash flows are largely dependent upon the Bank’s net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets such as loans and securities, and interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowed funds. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond Mid Penn’s control, including general economic conditions and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies and, in particular, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"). Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, could influence not only the interest income the Bank receives on loans and securities and the amount of interest expense it pays on deposits and borrowings, but such changes could also affect (i) the Bank’s ability to originate loans and obtain deposits, (ii) the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, and (iii) the average duration of mortgage-backed securities in the Bank’s investment portfolio. If the interest rates paid on deposits and other borrowings increase at a faster rate than the interest rates received on loans and other investments, Mid Penn’s net interest income, and therefore earnings, could be adversely affected. Earnings could also be adversely affected if the interest rates received on loans and investments fall more quickly than the interest rates paid on deposits and borrowings. Mid Penn may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the current period of rising interest rates and high inflation. In 2024, the Federal Reserve cut interest rates three times in response to cooling inflation and a weakening labor market, after raising interest rates in 2023 and 2022 to curb inflation, which was expected to drive down the prices of income or dividend-paying securities. The risk that interest rates may remain volatile is pronounced.
Management believes it has implemented effective asset and liability management strategies and interest rate risk management activities to reduce the potential effects of changes in interest rates on Mid Penn’s results of operations. Any substantial, unexpected, prolonged, or rapid change in market interest rates could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s net interest income and Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.
Mid Penn is subject to credit risk.
As of December 31, 2024, approximately 82% of the Bank’s loan portfolio consisted of commercial real estate, commercial and industrial, and construction loans. These types of loans are generally viewed as having more risk of default than residential real estate loans or secured consumer loans. Commercial loans are also typically larger than residential real estate loans and consumer loans. Because the loan portfolio contains a significant number of commercial and industrial loans, and construction and commercial real estate loans with relatively large balances, the deterioration of one or a few of these loans could cause a significant increase in non-performing loans. In addition, Mid Penn’s credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral held by Mid Penn cannot be readily realized or liquidated at prices sufficient to recover the full amount of the credit or derivative exposure due to Mid Penn. An increase in non-performing loans or collateral value deficiencies could result in a net loss of earnings from these loans, an increase in the provision for credit losses on loans
17
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
and an increase in loan charge-offs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.
The allowance for credit losses may not be sufficient to cover actual loan losses.
Following the issuance by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” effective January 1, 2023, Mid Penn adjusted its loan allowance methodology to reflect the new standard, which requires periodic estimates of lifetime expected credit losses on financial assets and categorizes expected credit losses as allowances for credit losses under the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. Under the CECL model, financial institutions are required to use historical information, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts to estimate the expected loss over the life of the loan. The ACL on loans and leases represents management’s estimate of all expected credit losses over the expected contractual life of our existing portfolio loans. The level of the allowance reflects management’s continuing evaluation of industry concentrations; specific credit risks; loan loss experience; current loan portfolio quality; changes in present economic, political and regulatory conditions; other external factors such as the ongoing pandemic; and unidentified losses inherent in the current loan portfolio. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and requires Mid Penn to make significant estimates of current credit risks and future trends, all of which may undergo material changes. Changes in economic and market conditions affecting borrowers, new information regarding existing loans, identification of additional problem credits and other factors, both within and outside of Mid Penn’s control, impact the determination of the allowance. In addition, bank regulatory agencies periodically review Mid Penn’s allowance for credit losses and may require an increase in the provision for credit losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of management.
Any increase in the allowance will result in a decrease in net income and, possibly, capital, and may have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.
Competition from other financial institutions may adversely affect Mid Penn’s and the Bank’s profitability.
Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary is subject to rapid changes in technology, regulation, and product innovation, and faces substantial competition in originating both commercial and consumer loans. This competition comes principally from other banks, credit unions, savings institutions, mortgage banking companies and other lenders. Many of its larger competitors who offer loans enjoy advantages over the Bank, including greater financial resources and higher lending limits, a wider geographic presence, more accessible branch office locations, the ability to offer a wider array of services or more favorable pricing alternatives, as well as lower origination and operating costs. This competition could reduce Mid Penn’s net income by decreasing the number and size of loans that its banking subsidiary originates, and the interest rates it may charge on these loans.
In attracting business and consumer deposits, the Bank faces substantial competition from other insured depository institutions such as other commercial banks, savings institutions, and credit unions, as well as institutions offering uninsured investment alternatives, including money market funds. Many of Mid Penn’s larger competitors who accept deposits also enjoy advantages over the Bank, including greater financial resources, more aggressive marketing campaigns, better brand recognition, and more convenient branch locations. These competitors may offer higher interest rates than Mid Penn, which could decrease the deposits that the Bank attracts or require an increase in rates and interest expense to retain existing deposits or attract new deposits. Increased deposit competition could adversely affect Mid Penn’s ability to generate the funds necessary for lending operations. As a result, Mid Penn may need to seek other sources of funds that may be more expensive to obtain and could increase its cost of funds.
Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary and nonbank subsidiaries also compete with non-banking providers of financial services, such as brokerage firms, consumer finance companies, credit unions, insurance agencies and governmental organizations, which may offer more favorable terms. Some of its non-banking competitors are not subject to the same extensive and costly regulations that govern Mid Penn’s operations. As a result, such non-banking competitors may have advantages over Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary and nonbank subsidiaries in providing certain products and services. This competition may reduce or limit Mid Penn’s margins on banking services, revenues from nonbanking subsidiaries’ activities, reduce its market share and adversely affect its earnings and financial condition.
Mid Penn depends on the accuracy and completeness of information about customers and counterparties.
18
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
In deciding whether to extend credit or enter into other transactions, Mid Penn may rely on information furnished by or on behalf of customers and counterparties, including financial statements, credit reports and other financial information. Mid Penn may also rely on representations of those customers, counterparties or other third parties, such as independent auditors, as to the accuracy and completeness of that information. Reliance on inaccurate or misleading financial statements, credit reports or other financial information could have a material adverse impact on Mid Penn’s business and, in turn, Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.
The discontinuance of LIBOR presents risks to the financial instruments originated, held or serviced by Mid Penn that use LIBOR as a reference rate.
The London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and certain other "benchmarks" are the subject of recent national, international, and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. These reforms may cause such benchmarks to perform differently than in the past or have other consequences, which cannot be predicted. On July 27, 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"), which regulates LIBOR, publicly announced that it intended to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. Since then, regulators, industry groups and certain committees (e.g., the Alternative Reference Rates Committee) have, among other things, published recommended fall-back language for LIBOR-linked financial instruments, identified recommended alternatives for certain LIBOR rates (e.g., the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as the recommended alternative to U.S. Dollar LIBOR), and proposed implementations of the recommended alternatives in floating rate instruments.
The administrator of LIBOR ceased publishing most non-USD LIBOR settings beginning on January 1, 2022, and as of July 1, 2023, the overnight one-month, three-month, six-month, and 12-month USD LIBOR settings were no longer published.
Currently, SOFR is the alternative reference rate replacing LIBOR for most types of transactions. SOFR is viewed as a "riskless rate" as it is derived from rates on overnight U.S. Treasury repurchase transactions, which are essentially overnight loans secured by U.S. Treasury securities and are largely viewed as not presenting credit risk. The BSBY is another alternative reference rate that is in use primarily in the loan market. BSBY is intended to reflect large banks’ marginal wholesale cost of funds and is a credit-sensitive rate with a forward-looking term structure.
The failure to properly transition away from LIBOR may result in increased supervisory scrutiny. In addition, the implementation of LIBOR reform proposals may result in increased compliance costs and operational costs, including costs related to continued participation in LIBOR and the transition to a replacement reference rate or rates, which cannot currently be reasonably estimated.
The discontinuance of LIBOR may result in uncertainty or differences in the calculation of the applicable interest rate or payment amount depending on the terms of the governing documents, may adversely affect the value of Mid Penn’s floating rate obligations, loans, deposits, derivatives, and other financial instruments tied to LIBOR rates and may also increase operational and other risks to Mid Penn and the industry, including reputational and litigation risk.
The Basel III capital requirements require Mid Penn to maintain higher levels of capital, which could reduce profitability.
We are subject to comprehensive capital adequacy requirements intended to protect against losses that Mid Penn may incur. Basel III established higher levels of base capital, certain capital buffers, and a migration toward common equity as the key source of regulatory capital. Although these capital requirements have been phased in and met by Mid Penn, the Basel III requirements signal a growing effort by domestic and international bank regulatory agencies to require financial institutions, including depository institutions, to maintain higher levels of capital. The Basel III implementation activities and related regulatory capital targets required additional capital to support our business risk profile. Maintaining higher levels of capital potentially reduces opportunities to leverage interest-earning assets, which could limit the net interest income and profitability of Mid Penn, and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.
Our SBA lending program is dependent upon the federal government, and we face specific risks associated with originating SBA loans.
Our SBA lending program is dependent upon the federal government. As an SBA Preferred Lender, we enable our clients to obtain SBA loans without being subject to the potentially lengthy SBA approval process necessary for lenders that are not SBA Preferred Lenders. Our SBA lending program depends on interaction with the SBA, which is an independent agency of the federal government. During a lapse of funding, such as a government shutdown, the SBA may not be able to
19
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
engage in such interaction which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the demand for our services could decline. The SBA periodically reviews the lending operations of participating lenders to assess, among other things, whether the lender exhibits prudent risk management. When weaknesses are identified, the SBA may request corrective actions or impose enforcement actions, including revocation of the lender’s Preferred Lender status. If we lose our status as a Preferred Lender, we may lose some or all of our customers to lenders who are SBA Preferred Lenders. Also, any changes to the SBA program, including changes to the level of guarantee provided by the federal government on SBA loans, could adversely affect our business and earnings.
We generally sell the guaranteed portion of our SBA 7(a) program loans in the secondary market. These sales have resulted in premium income for us at the time of sale and created a stream of future servicing income. We may not be able to continue originating these loans or selling them in the secondary market. Furthermore, even if we are able to continue originating and selling SBA 7(a) program loans in the secondary market, we might not continue to realize premiums upon the sale of the guaranteed portion of these loans. When we sell the guaranteed portion of our SBA 7(a) program loans, we incur credit risk on the non-guaranteed portion of the loans, and if a customer defaults on the non-guaranteed portion of a loan, we share any loss and recovery related to the loan pro-rata with the SBA. If the SBA establishes that a loss on an SBA guaranteed loan is attributable to significant technical deficiencies in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded or serviced by us, the SBA may deny its liability under the guaranty for the affected loan or loans, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already paid under the guaranty, seek recovery of the principal loss related to the deficiency from us, which could adversely affect our business and earnings.
The laws, regulations and standard operating procedures that are applicable to SBA loan products may change in the future. We cannot predict the effects of these changes on our business and profitability. Because government regulation greatly affects the business and financial results of all commercial banks and bank holding companies, changes in the laws, regulations and procedures applicable to SBA loans could adversely affect our business and earnings.
Acts of terrorism, natural disasters, global climate change, pandemics and global conflicts may have a negative impact on our business and operations.
Acts of terrorism, natural disasters, global climate change, pandemics, global conflicts, and geopolitical tensions (including as a result of the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas conflicts) or other similar events could have a negative impact on our business and operations. While we have business continuity plans in place, such events occurring or persisting, such as the COVID-19 or any future pandemic, could disrupt or delay the normal operations of our business and our facilities (including communications and technology), result in harm to or cause travel limitations on our employees, and have a similar impact on our clients, suppliers, third-party vendors and counterparties. These events also could impact us negatively to the extent that they result in reduced capital markets activity, lower asset price levels, or disruptions in general economic activity in the United States or abroad, or in financial market settlement functions. In addition, these or similar events may impact economic growth negatively, which could have an adverse effect on our business and operations and may have other adverse effects on us in ways that we are unable to predict.
If Mid Penn’s information systems are interrupted or sustain a breach in security, those events may negatively affect Mid Penn’s financial performance and reputation.
In conducting its business, Mid Penn relies heavily on its information systems. Maintaining and protecting those systems and data is difficult and expensive, as is dealing with any failure, interruption, or breach in security of these systems, whether due to acts or omissions by Mid Penn or by a third party, and whether intentional or not. Any such failure, interruption, or breach could result in failures or disruptions in Mid Penn’s customer relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan, and other systems. A breach of Mid Penn’s information security may result from fraudulent activity committed against Mid Penn or its clients, resulting in financial loss to Mid Penn or its clients, or privacy breaches against Mid Penn’s clients. Such fraudulent activity may consist of check fraud, electronic fraud, wire fraud, "phishing", social engineering, identity theft, or other deceptive acts. The policies, procedures, and technical safeguards put in place by Mid Penn to prevent or limit the effect of any failure, interruption, or security breach of its information systems and data may be insufficient to prevent or remedy the effects of any such occurrences. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions, or security breaches of Mid Penn’s information systems and data could damage Mid Penn’s reputation, cause Mid Penn to incur additional expenses, result in online services or other businesses becoming inoperable, subject Mid Penn to regulatory sanctions or additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose Mid Penn to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.

Mid Penn’s business operations and interaction with customers are increasingly done via technology and electronic delivery channels, and this has increased risks related to cyber-attacks and cyber incidents.
In the normal course of business, we collect, process, and retain sensitive and confidential information regarding our customers. Although we devote significant resources and management focus to ensuring the integrity of our systems, Mid Penn is exposed to the risk of cyber-attacks in the normal course of business. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. An increased level of attention in the industry is focused on cyber-attacks that include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. To combat against these attacks, Mid Penn has certain security systems and policies and procedures in place to prevent or limit the effect of the possible security breach of its information systems and it has insurance against some cyber-risks and attacks. While Mid Penn has not incurred any material losses related to cyber-attacks, nor is it aware of any specific or threatened cyber-incidents as of the date of this report, it may incur substantial costs and suffer other negative consequences if it falls victim to successful cyber-attacks. Such negative consequences could include remediation costs that may include liability for stolen assets or information and repairing system damage that cyber-attacks may have caused; deploying additional personnel and protection technologies, training employees, and engaging third party experts and consultants; lost revenues resulting from unauthorized use of proprietary information or the failure to retain or attract customers following an attack; litigation; and reputational damage adversely affecting customer or investor confidence, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
We are required to make a number of judgments in applying generally accepted accounting standards, and different estimates and assumptions in the application of these accounting standards could result in a decrease in capital and/or other material changes to our reports of financial condition and results of operations.
Generally accepted accounting principles involve certain estimates and processes that are particularly susceptible to significant change, including those related to the determination of the allowance for credit losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments, the fair value of and potential impairment of certain financial instruments including investment securities, income tax assets or liabilities (including deferred tax assets and any related valuation allowance), and share-based compensation. While we have identified critical accounting policies and have procedures and processes in place to support making the related judgments and estimates, changes to the processes, assumptions, or models in the application of these generally accepted accounting principles, and the impact to the related judgments and estimates could result in a decrease to net income and, possibly, capital and may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, and the SEC issues changes to or updated interpretations of the financial accounting and reporting guidance that governs the preparation of Mid Penn’s financial statements. These changes are beyond our control, can be difficult to predict, and could materially impact how we report our financial condition and results of operations. We could be required to apply new or revised guidance retrospectively, which may result in the revision of prior financial statements by material amounts. The implementation of new or revised guidance could also result in material adverse effects to our reported capital.
Mid Penn’s mortgage banking income may experience significant volatility.
Mortgage banking income is highly influenced by the level and direction of market forces including mortgage interest rates, and real estate and refinancing activity. Mid Penn sells a significant amount of residential mortgage loans into the secondary market. The sale of these loans generates noninterest income and can be a source of liquidity for the Bank. Disruption in the secondary market for residential mortgage loans as well as declines in real estate values could result in an inability to sell mortgage loans on the secondary market, which could negatively impact Mid Penn’s liquidity position. A decline in real estate values could decrease the potential of mortgage originations for Mid Penn, which could negatively impact our earnings.
Additionally, in lower interest rate environments, the demand for mortgage loans and refinancing activity will tend to increase. This has the effect of increasing fee income but could adversely impact the estimated fair value of Mid Penn’s mortgage servicing rights as the rate of loan prepayments increase. In higher interest rate environments, the demand for mortgage loans and refinancing activity will generally be lower. This has the effect of decreasing mortgage loan originations and refinance activities, and related fee income opportunities.
Mid Penn could be required to repurchase mortgage loans or indemnify mortgage loan purchasers due to breaches of representations and warranties, borrower fraud, or certain borrower defaults, which could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.
21
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Mid Penn originates and sells a significant amount of residential mortgage loans into the secondary market. When Mid Penn sells mortgage loans, Mid Penn is required to make customary representations and warranties to purchasers about the mortgage loans and the manner in which they were originated. The agreements pursuant to which the loans are sold require Mid Penn to repurchase or substitute mortgage loans in the event there was a breach of any of these representations or warranties. In addition, Mid Penn may be required to repurchase mortgage loans as a result of borrower fraud or in the event of early payment default of the borrower on a mortgage loan. If repurchase and indemnity demands increase significantly, Mid Penn’s liquidity, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
Mid Penn’s profitability depends significantly on economic conditions in Pennsylvania.
Unlike larger or regional financial institutions that are more geographically diversified, Mid Penn’s success is dependent to a significant degree on economic conditions in Pennsylvania, especially in the eighteen counties and the specific markets primarily served by Mid Penn. The banking industry is affected by general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation, recession, unemployment, real estate values, trends in national and global economics, and other factors beyond our control. An economic recession or a delayed recovery over a prolonged period of time in Pennsylvania, or more specific to the counties or communities in Pennsylvania served by Mid Penn, could cause an increase in the level of the Bank’s non-performing assets and loan losses, thereby causing operating losses, impairing liquidity, and eroding capital. Mid Penn cannot assure that adverse changes in the local and state economy supporting its market area would not have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Mid Penn is subject to claims and litigation pertaining to fiduciary responsibility.
From time to time, customers and shareholders may make claims and take legal action pertaining to Mid Penn’s performance of its fiduciary responsibilities. Whether such claims and legal action related to Mid Penn’s performance of its fiduciary responsibilities are founded or unfounded, if such claims and legal actions are not resolved in a manner favorable to Mid Penn, the claims or related litigation processes may result in significant financial expense and liability, and/or adversely affect the market perception of Mid Penn and its products and services, as well as impact customer demand for those products and services. Any financial liability or reputation damage could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s business, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.
Mid Penn operates in a highly regulated environment and may be adversely affected by changes in federal, state and local laws and regulations.
The Corporation, the Bank, and its nonbank subsidiaries are collectively subject to extensive regulation, supervision, and examination by federal and state banking authorities. The potential exists for additional or amended federal or state laws and regulations, or changes in supervisory policies or activities, to materially affect many aspects of Mid Penn’s operations, including capital levels, lending and funding practices, and liquidity standards. New laws and regulations may increase costs of regulatory compliance and of doing business and otherwise affect operations and may significantly affect the markets in which Mid Penn does business, the markets for and value of Mid Penn’s loans and investments, the ability to attract deposits at a reasonable cost, the fees charged, and ongoing operations, costs and profitability. Further, additional legislation and regulations that could significantly affect Mid Penn’s powers, authority and operations may be enacted or adopted in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations. Also, regulators have significant discretion and authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of laws by banks and bank holding companies in the performance of their supervisory and enforcement duties. Any changes in applicable regulations or federal, state or local legislation, or the exercise of bank regulatory authority, may have a negative impact on Mid Penn’s results of operations, financial condition, and its ability to pay dividends on common stock. The burden imposed by federal and state regulators puts Mid Penn at a competitive disadvantage compared to less regulated competitors such as finance companies, mortgage banking companies and leasing companies.
In addition, changes in laws or regulations that affect Mid Penn’s customers and business partners could negatively affect Mid Penn’s revenues and expenses. Certain changes in laws such as tax law reforms that impose limitations on the deductibility of interest may decrease the demand for Mid Penn’s products or services and could negatively affect its revenues and results of operations. Other changes in laws or regulations could cause Mid Penn’s third-party service providers and other vendors to increase the prices they charge to Mid Penn and negatively affect Mid Penn’s expenses and financial results.
22
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
The soundness of other financial institutions may adversely affect Mid Penn.
Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty, or other relationships. Mid Penn has exposure to many different industries and counterparties, and routinely executes transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, including commercial banks, brokers and dealers, investment banks, and other institutional clients. Many of these transactions expose Mid Penn to credit risk and losses in the event of a default by a counterparty or client. Any such losses could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.
During 2023, five banks either failed or were sold in an FDIC-assisted transaction. Mid Penn did not have any direct exposure to any of the affected banks. However, if other banks or financial institutions enter receivership or become insolvent in the future in response to financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial markets, our ability to access our existing cash, cash equivalents and investments may be threatened and could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Volatility in financial markets and the economy may have materially adverse effects on our liquidity and financial condition .
The capital and credit markets have recently experienced extreme volatility and economic disruption, most recently due to the takeover by the FDIC of both Silicon Valley Bank ("SVB") and Signature Bank in March 2023, and, prior to that, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Adverse financial market and economic conditions can exert downward pressure on stock prices, security prices, and credit availability for certain issuers without regard to their underlying financial strength. The volatility resulting from the failures of SVB and Signature Bank has particularly impacted the price of securities issued by financial institutions, including Mid Penn’s.
If such levels of financial market and economic disruption and volatility continue, there can be no assurance that Mid Penn will not experience adverse effects, which may materially affect its liquidity, financial condition, and profitability.
Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary may be required to pay higher FDIC insurance premiums or special assessments which may adversely affect its earnings .
Poor economic conditions and the resulting bank failures from the most recent recession stressed the DIF and increased the costs of the Bank’s FDIC insurance assessments. Promptly following the recent failures of SVB and Signature Bank in March 2023, the federal banking regulators announced that the FDIC will use funds from the DIF to ensure that all depositors in SVB and Signature Bank are made whole, at no cost to taxpayers. Mid Penn anticipates that the FDIC will impose additional special assessments on all banks in order to replenish the DIF. Mid Penn generally is unable to control the amount of premiums or special assessments that its banking subsidiary is required to pay for FDIC insurance. As of December 31, 2024, Mid Penn has not been subject to additional special assessments. Any special assessments or future changes in the calculation or assessment of FDIC insurance premiums may have a material adverse effect on the results of Mid Penn’s operations and financial condition.
If we conclude that there is a decline in the value of any of our AFS investment securities, we may be required to record an allowance for credit losses where periodic changes are recognized in earnings.
Mid Penn reviews its available-for-sale investment securities portfolio at each quarter-end reporting period to determine if any security has a fair value less than its amortized cost. To determine whether a decline in fair value resulted from a credit loss or other factors, Mid Penn performs further analysis as outlined below:
• Review the extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized cost and observe the security’s lowest credit rating as reported by third-party credit ratings companies.
• The securities that violate the credit loss triggers above would be subjected to additional analysis that may include, but is not limited to: changes in market interest rates, changes in securities credit ratings, security type, service area economic factors, financial performance of the issuer/or obligor of the underlying issue and third-party guarantee.
• If Mid Penn determines that a credit loss exists, the credit portion of the allowance will be measured using a DCF analysis using the effective interest rate as of the security’s purchase date. The amount of credit loss Mid Penn records will be limited to the amount by which the amortized cost exceeds the fair value.
23
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Due to the complexity of the process, inputs, calculations, and assumptions used in determining whether an investment is in an unrealized loss position, Mid Penn’s assessment of or disclosure of the credit loss on investments may not accurately reflect the actual credit loss in the future.
Mid Penn is subject to environmental, social and governance ("ESG") risks that could adversely affect our results of operations, reputation, and the market price of our securities.
Mid Penn is subject to a variety of risks arising from ESG matters. ESG matters include environmental and climate change activism, diversity activism, and racial and social justice issues. Such matters may involve our personnel, customers, or third parties with whom we do business. Risks arising from ESG matters may adversely affect, among other things, our reputation and the market price of our securities. Further, Mid Penn may be exposed to negative publicity based on the identity and activities of our shareholders, those to whom we lend and with which we otherwise do business, and the public’s view of the approach and requirements of our state or federal regulators, customers, and business partners with respect to ESG matters. Any such negative publicity could arise through traditional media or electronic social media platforms. Mid Penn’s relationships and reputation with our existing and prospective customers and third parties with which we do business could be damaged if we were to become the subject of any such negative publicity. This, in turn, could have an adverse effect on Mid Penn’s ability to attract and retain customers and employees and could have a negative impact on the market price for our securities.
Investor advocacy groups, investment funds and influential investors have begun to consider the steps taken and resources allocated by financial institutions and other commercial organizations with respect to ESG matters when making investment decisions. Certain investors are beginning to incorporate the business risks of ESG regulation and activism and the adequacy of companies’ responses to these into their investment decisions. These shifts in investing priorities may result in adverse effects on the market price of Mid Penn’s securities.
The U.S. Congress, state legislatures and federal and state regulatory agencies, as well as certain stock exchanges, continue to propose numerous initiatives related to ESG matters. The lack of empirical data surrounding the credit and other financial risks posed by ESG regulation and activism render it impossible to predict how specifically ESG matters may impact Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.
Federal and state banking regulators and supervisory authorities, investors and other stakeholders have increasingly viewed financial institutions as a tool to effect ESG activism, both directly and with respect to their customers, which may result in financial institutions coming under increased pressure regarding the disclosure and management of ESG matters. Given that ESG matters could impose systemic risks upon the financial sector, via disruptions in economic activity resulting from activism, Mid Penn faces increasing focus on our resilience to ESG risks. Ongoing legislative or regulatory uncertainties and changes regarding ESG risk management and practices may result in higher regulatory, compliance, credit and reputational risks and costs.
Actual or perceived shortcomings with respect to these ESG initiatives and reporting can impact Mid Penn’s ability to hire and retain employees, increase its customer base or attract and retain certain types of investors. In addition, certain organizations that provide corporate governance and other corporate risk information to investors and shareholders have developed scores and ratings to evaluate companies based upon ESG metrics. Collecting, measuring, and reporting ESG information and metrics can be costly, difficult and time consuming, is subject to evolving reporting standards, and can present numerous operational, reputational, financial, legal and other risks, any of which could have a material impact, including on Mid Penn’s reputation and stock price.
Mid Penn is subject to environmental liability risk associated with lending activities.
A significant portion of Mid Penn’s loan portfolio is secured by real property. During the ordinary course of business, Mid Penn may foreclose on and take title to properties securing certain loans. In doing so, there is a risk that hazardous or toxic substances could be found on these properties. If hazardous or toxic substances are found, Mid Penn may be liable for remediation costs, as well as for personal injury and property damage. Environmental laws may require Mid Penn to incur substantial expenses and may materially reduce the affected property’s value or limit Mid Penn’s ability to use or sell the affected property. In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing laws may increase Mid Penn’s exposure to environmental liability. Although Mid Penn has policies and procedures to perform an environmental review before initiating any foreclosure action on real property, these reviews may not be sufficient to detect all potential environmental hazards. The remediation costs and any other financial liabilities associated
24
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
with an environmental hazard could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations.
Mid Penn’s financial performance may suffer if its information technology is unable to keep pace with its growth or industry developments.
Effective and competitive delivery of Mid Penn’s products and services is increasingly dependent upon the successful and uninterrupted functioning of our information technology resources and processes provided both internally and through third party vendors. In addition to better serving customers, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables Mid Penn to reduce costs. Mid Penn’s future success will depend, in part, upon its ability to address the needs of its customers by effectively and safely using technology to provide products and services to enhance customer convenience, attract customers who prefer technological delivery channels, and to create additional efficiencies in its operations. Many of Mid Penn’s competitors have greater resources to invest in technological improvements and infrastructure. Additionally, as technology and information security requirements in the financial services industry change and evolve, keeping pace becomes increasingly complex and expensive for Mid Penn. There can be no assurance that Mid Penn will be able to effectively keep pace with these technological advancements or the related substantial costs and investments required, which could adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations.
Growing by acquisition entails certain risks, and difficulties in integrating past or future acquisitions could adversely affect our business.
On November 1, 2024, Mid Penn announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement to acquire William Penn Bancorporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, William Penn Bank. Mid Penn has completed four other whole bank merger acquisitions in recent years (The Scottdale Bank & Trust Company and First Priority Financial Corp. in 2018, Riverview Financial Corporation on November 30, 2021, and Brunswick Bancorp on May 19, 2023), as well as two nonbank acquisitions.
Generally, Mid Penn must receive federal and state regulatory approval before it can acquire a bank or bank holding company. In determining whether to approve a proposed bank acquisition, bank regulators will consider, among other factors, the effect of the acquisition on competition and future prospects. Regulators also review current and projected capital ratios and levels, the competence, experience and integrity of management and its record of compliance with laws and regulations. We cannot be certain when or if, or on what terms and conditions, any required regulatory approvals will be granted. Growth by acquisition involves substantial risks, as the ultimate success of such acquisitions may depend on, among other things, the ability to realize anticipated cost savings and to integrate the acquired companies and operation in a manner that does not result in decreased revenues. Excessive acquisition costs, conversion costs and the disruption of existing customer relationships in both the acquired companies and legacy markets may occur. If we are not able to successfully achieve the financial efficiencies or integration and growth objectives of acquisitions, the anticipated benefits of an acquisition may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than planned.
Further, the asset quality or other financial characteristics of an acquired company may deteriorate from the date a merger or other acquisition agreement is entered into and when the transaction is completed or the post-merger period.
Mid Penn has spent and may continue to spend significant resources identifying companies and businesses to acquire. The efficient and effective integration of any companies and businesses we acquire and integrate into our organization is critical to our growth. Our recent acquisitions, and any future acquisitions, involve numerous risks including difficulties in integrating the culture, operations, technologies and personnel of the acquired companies, the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns and the potential loss of customers. Failure to fully integrate the operations of any acquired business successfully, or to integrate the operations of future acquisition targets, could harm Mid Penn’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We plan to pursue a growth strategy and there are risks associated with rapid growth.
We intend to pursue a growth plan consistent with our prior business strategy, including growth by acquisition, as well as leveraging our existing branch network or adding new branch locations or offices and personnel in current and adjacent markets we choose to serve. Our recent acquisitions and the pending William Penn acquisition are reflective of our growth strategy.
25
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Our ability to manage growth successfully will depend on our ability to attract or retain qualified personnel, maintain cost controls and efficiencies, and ensure our areas of growth continue to meet our high asset quality standards, while attracting additional loans and deposits on favorable terms, as well as on factors beyond our control, such as economic conditions and competition in existing and new markets. If we grow too quickly and are not able to attract qualified personnel, control costs and maintain asset quality, this continued rapid growth could materially adversely affect our financial performance.
The value of our goodwill and other intangible assets may decline in the future.
As of December 31, 2024, we had $128.2 million of goodwill and $6.2 million of other intangible assets. A significant decline in our expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in the business climate, slower economic growth or a significant and sustained decline in the price of our common stock, any or all of which could be materially impacted by many of the risk factors discussed herein, may necessitate our taking charges in the future related to the impairment of our goodwill. Future regulatory actions could also have a material impact on assessments of goodwill for impairment. If we were to conclude that a future write-down of our goodwill is necessary, we would record the appropriate charge, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. We cannot provide assurance that we will not be required to take an impairment charge in the future. Any such charge would have an adverse effect on our shareholders’ equity and financial results and could cause a decline in our stock price.
Identifiable intangible assets other than goodwill consist of core deposit intangibles, books of business, and other intangible assets. Adverse events or circumstances could impact the recoverability of these intangible assets including loss of core deposits, significant losses of customer accounts and/or balances, increased competition, or adverse changes in the economy. To the extent these intangible assets are deemed unrecoverable, a non-cash impairment charge would be recorded, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Risks Related to the Merger
Failure to complete the Merger could negatively affect our market price, future business and financial results.
Although we anticipate closing the Merger in the second quarter of 2025, we cannot guarantee when, or whether, the Merger will be completed. If the Merger is not completed for any reason, we will be subject to a number of material risks, including the following:
• Costs related to the Merger, such as legal, accounting and financial advisory fees, and, in specific circumstances, additional reimbursement and termination fees, must be paid even if the Merger is not completed.
• Declines in our market price to the extent that the current market price of our common stock already reflects a market assumption that the Merger will be completed.
• The diversion of management’s attention from the day-to-day business operations and the potential disruption to each company’s employees and business relationships during the period before the completion of the Merger may make it difficult to regain financial and market positions if the Merger does not occur.
• Becoming subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the Merger.
Regulatory waivers and approvals may not be received or may be received and subsequently expire, be revoked or be amended to impose conditions that are not presently anticipated or cannot be met.
Before the transactions contemplated in the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, may be completed, various waivers, approvals or consents must be obtained from various bank regulatory and other authorities, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the FDIC, and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities. In determining whether to grant these approvals, regulatory authorities consider a variety of factors, including the regulatory standing of each party. These approvals could be delayed or not obtained at all, including due to any or all of the following: an adverse development in any party’s regulatory standing or any other factors considered by regulators in granting such approvals; governmental, political, or community group inquiries, investigations or opposition; or changes in legislation or the political or regulatory environment generally, including as a result of changes of the U.S. executive administration, or Congressional leadership and regulatory agency leadership.
Even if the approvals are granted, they may impose terms and conditions, limitations, obligations or costs, or place restrictions on the conduct of the combined company’s business or require changes to the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. There can be no assurance that regulators will not impose any such conditions, limitations, obligations, or restrictions or that such conditions, limitations, obligations, or restrictions will not have the
26
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
effect of delaying the completion of any of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, imposing additional material costs on or materially limiting the revenues of the combined company following the Merger or otherwise reduce the anticipated benefits of the Merger if the Merger were completed successfully within the expected timeframe. In addition, there can be no assurance that any such conditions, limitations, obligations, or restrictions will not result in the delay or abandonment of the Merger. The completion of the Merger is conditioned on the receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals without the imposition of any materially burdensome regulatory condition and the expiration of all statutory waiting periods. Additionally, the completion of the Merger is conditioned on the absence of certain orders, injunctions, or decrees issued by any court or any governmental entity of competent jurisdiction that would prevent, prohibit, or make illegal the completion of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
Despite the parties’ expected commitment to use their reasonable best efforts to respond to any request for information and resolve any objection that may be asserted by any governmental entity with respect to the Merger Agreement, neither party is required under the terms of the Merger Agreement to take any action, commit to take any action, or agree to any condition or restriction in connection with obtaining these approvals, that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the combined company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to the proposed Merger.
Further, such approvals are subject to expiration if the transaction is not consummated within the time period provided in the approval.
Combining Mid Penn and William Penn may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected, and we may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger.
The success of the Merger will depend on, among other things, our ability to integrate William Penn into our business in a manner that facilitates growth opportunities and achieves the anticipated benefits of the Merger. If we are not able to successfully achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits of the Merger may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected. In addition, the actual cost and savings and anticipated benefits of the Merger could be less than anticipated, and integration may result in additional unforeseen expenses.
Litigation relating to the Merger could require us to incur significant costs and suffer management distraction, as well as delay and/or enjoin the Merger.
We are not currently able to predict the outcome of any suit arising out of or relating to the proposed Merger that may be filed in the future. If any complaints are filed, absent allegations that are material, We will not necessarily announce such filings.
We could be subject to demands or litigation related to the Merger, whether or not the Merger is consummated. Such actions may create additional uncertainty relating to the Merger, and responding to such demands and defending such actions may be costly and distracting to management. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcomes of any demand or any subsequent litigation, we do not believe that the resolution of such demands or any subsequent litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flow.
We will be subject to various uncertainties while the Merger is pending that could adversely affect our financial results or the anticipated benefits of the Merger.
Uncertainty about the effect of the Merger on counterparties to contracts, employees and other parties may have an adverse effect on us or the anticipated benefits of the Merger. These uncertainties could cause contract counterparties and others who deal with us or William Penn to seek to change existing business relationships with us or William Penn, and may impair our or William Penn’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the Merger is completed and for a period of time thereafter. Employee retention and recruitment may be particularly challenging prior to the completion of the Merger, as our employees and prospective employees, and the employees and prospective employees of William Penn, may experience uncertainty about their future roles with us following the Merger.
The pursuit of the Merger and the preparation for the integration of the two companies may place a significant burden on management and internal resources. Any significant diversion of management attention away from ongoing business and any difficulties encountered in the transition and integration process could affect our financial results prior to and/or following the completion of the Merger and could limit us from pursuing attractive business opportunities and making other changes to our business prior to completion of the Merger or termination of the Merger Agreement.

MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
William Penn may have liabilities that are not known to us.
In connection with the Merger, we will assume all of William Penn’s liabilities by operation of law. There may be liabilities that we failed or were unable to discover in the course of performing due diligence investigations into William Penn, or we may not have correctly assessed the significance of certain liabilities of William Penn identified in the course of our due diligence. Any such liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We expect to incur substantial transaction costs in connection with the Merger.
We expect to incur a significant amount of non-recurring expenses in connection with the Merger, including legal, accounting, consulting, and other expenses. In general, these expenses are payable by us whether or not the Merger is completed. Additional unanticipated costs may be incurred following consummation of the Merger in the course of the integration of our businesses and the business of William Penn. We cannot be certain that the elimination of duplicative costs or the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of the two businesses will offset the transaction and integration costs in the near term, or at all.
The Merger may be completed on different terms from those contained in the Merger Agreement.
Prior to the completion of the Merger, we and William Penn may, by mutual agreement, amend or alter the terms of the Merger Agreement, including with respect to, among other things, the Merger consideration or any covenants or agreements with respect to the parties’ respective operations during the pendency of the Merger Agreement. Any such amendments or alterations may have negative consequences to us.
The Merger will not be completed unless important conditions are satisfied or waived, including approval of the Merger Agreement by our shareholders and William Penn’s shareholders.
Specified conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement must be satisfied or waived to complete the Merger. If the conditions are not satisfied or, subject to applicable law, waived, the Merger will not occur or will be delayed and each of William Penn and us may lose some or all of the intended benefits of the Merger.
Risks Related to Mid Penn Common Stock
The trading volume in Mid Penn’s common stock is less than that of other larger financial services companies.
Mid Penn’s common stock is listed for trading on NASDAQ (symbol: MPB); however, the trading volume in its common stock is less than that of other larger financial services companies. A public trading market having the desired characteristics of depth, liquidity and orderliness depends on the presence in the marketplace of willing buyers and sellers of Mid Penn’s common stock at any given time. This presence depends on the individual decisions of investors and general economic and market conditions over which Mid Penn has no control. Given the generally lower trading volume of Mid Penn’s common stock, significant sales of Mid Penn’s common stock, or the expectation of these sales, could cause Mid Penn’s stock price to fall.
The market price of Mid Penn common stock may fluctuate significantly, and this may make it difficult for investors to resell shares of common stock owned by them at times or at prices they find attractive.
The market price of our common stock as reported on NASDAQ is subject to constant change during business trading hours. We expect that the market price of Mid Penn common stock will continue to fluctuate and there can be no assurance about the stability or trend of market prices for Mid Penn common stock. Stock price volatility, particularly with a stock like ours with lower trading volumes than larger financial services companies, may make it difficult for investors to resell their Mid Penn common stock when they want and at times or prices that they find attractive. Mid Penn’s stock price may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include those described elsewhere in this entire "Risk Factors" section, in this document, and our other filings with the SEC.
Mid Penn’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock, and principal and interest on its subordinated notes, depends primarily on dividends from its banking subsidiary, which is subject to regulatory limits.
28
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Mid Penn is a bank holding company and its operations are conducted primarily by its banking subsidiary. Mid Penn’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock, and principal and interest on its subordinated notes, depends on its receipt of dividends from the Bank. Dividend payments from its banking subsidiary are subject to legal and regulatory limitations, generally based on net profits and retained earnings, imposed by the respective regulatory agencies that supervise the Bank. The ability of the Bank to pay dividends is also subject to profitability, financial condition, liquidity, and capital management limits. There is no assurance that Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary or other subsidiaries established in the future will be able to pay dividends, or that Mid Penn itself will generate adequate cash flow to pay dividends in the future. Federal Reserve policy, which applies to Mid Penn as a registered bank holding company, also provides that dividends by bank holding companies should generally be paid out of earnings from both the current period and a designated look-back period. Mid Penn’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock, or the amount of any dividends paid, could have a material adverse effect on the market price of its common stock.
Mid Penn may need to, or be required to, raise additional capital in the future, and capital may not be available when needed and on terms favorable to current stockholders.
Federal banking regulators require the Corporation and the Bank to maintain adequate levels of capital to support their operations. These capital levels are determined and dictated by law, regulation, and banking regulatory agencies. Regulators may, from time to time, implement changes to regulatory capital adequacy guidelines. Furthermore, regulators may require that the Corporation and/or the Bank to maintain higher levels of capital based on their condition, risk profile, growth plans, or conditions in the banking industry or economy. Failure to maintain capital to meet current or future regulatory requirements could have a significant material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, capital levels are also determined by Mid Penn’s management and board of directors, based on capital levels that they believe are necessary to support Mid Penn’s business operations.
If Mid Penn raises capital through merger and acquisition activities, or through the issuance of additional shares of its common stock or other securities, it would likely dilute the ownership interests of current investors and could dilute the per share book value and earnings per share of its common stock. Furthermore, a capital raise through issuance of additional shares may have an adverse impact on Mid Penn’s stock price. New investors also may have rights, preferences, and privileges senior to Mid Penn’s current common stockholders, which may adversely impact its current common stockholders.
Mid Penn’s ability to raise additional capital will depend on conditions in the capital markets at that time, which are outside of its control, and on its financial performance. Accordingly, Mid Penn cannot be certain of its ability to raise additional capital on acceptable terms and acceptable time frames or to raise additional capital at all. The inability to raise capital in sufficient amounts may adversely affect Mid Penn’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Offerings of debt, which would be senior to Mid Penn’s common stock upon liquidation, and/or preferred equity securities which may be senior to our common stock for purposes of dividend distributions or upon liquidation, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock .
Mid Penn may attempt to increase its capital resources if the Corporation’s or the Bank’s capital ratios fall below the required minimums. The Corporation or the Bank could be required to raise additional capital by making additional offerings of debt or preferred equity securities, including medium-term notes, senior or subordinated notes and preferred stock. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, or nature of our future offerings. If a future liquidation of Mid Penn occurs, holders of debt securities and shares of preferred stock and lenders with respect to other borrowings are likely to receive distributions of available assets prior to the holders of our common stock. Additional equity offerings may dilute the holdings of existing shareholders or reduce the market price of our common stock, or both. Holders of Mid Penn common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights or other protections against dilution.
Also, Mid Penn’s board of directors is authorized to issue one or more classes or series of preferred stock from time to time without any action on the part of the shareholders. The board of directors also has the power, without shareholder approval, to set the terms of any such classes or series of preferred stock that may be issued, including voting rights, dividend rights, and preferences over common stock with respect to dividends or upon our dissolution, winding up and liquidation and other terms. If Mid Penn issues preferred stock in the future that has a preference over its common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or if preferred stock is issued with voting rights that dilute the voting power of common stock, the rights of holders of Mid Penn’s common stock or the market price of the common stock could be adversely affected.
29
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law and various anti-takeover provisions under our articles of incorporation and bylaws could impede the takeover of Mid Penn.
Various Pennsylvania laws affecting business corporations may have the effect of discouraging offers to acquire Mid Penn, even if the acquisition would be advantageous to shareholders. In addition, Mid Penn has various anti-takeover measures in place under its articles of incorporation and bylaws, including a supermajority vote requirement for mergers, the staggered election of Mid Penn’s board of directors, and the absence of cumulative voting. Any one or more of these laws or measures may impede the takeover of Mid Penn and may prevent its shareholders from taking part in a transaction in which they could realize a premium over the current market price of its common stock.
Mid Penn’s common stock is not insured by any governmental entity.
Although Mid Penn and the Bank are regulated by governmental agencies, Mid Penn common stock is not a deposit account or other obligation of the Bank or any other bank and, therefore, is not insured against loss by the FDIC, any other deposit insurance fund, any other governmental entity or by any other public or private entity. Investment in Mid Penn common stock is inherently risky for the reasons described elsewhere in this "Risk Factors" section, in this document, and our other filings with the SEC. Mid Penn common stock is also subject to the same market forces that affect the price of common stock in any other publicly traded company. As a result, investors who acquire Mid Penn common stock may lose some or all of their investment.
General Risk Factors
Mid Penn’s controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented.
Management maintains Mid Penn’s internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures, and corporate governance policies and procedures, and periodically reviews and updates them. Any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part on performance by personnel or certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of Mid Penn’s controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulations related to controls and procedures could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Mid Penn may not be able to attract and retain skilled personnel.
Mid Penn’s success depends, in large part, on its ability to attract and retain qualified, key personnel. Competition for the best personnel in most activities engaged in by Mid Penn can be intense, and Mid Penn may not be able to hire or retain them. Limitations in the way regulated financial institutions can compensate their officers and employees, including those requirements contained in Dodd-Frank, may make it more difficult for regulated financial institutions, including Mid Penn, to compete with unregulated companies for talent. The unexpected loss of services of one or more of Mid Penn’s key personnel could have a material adverse impact on Mid Penn’s business because of their skills, knowledge of Mid Penn’s market, years of industry experience, and the difficulty of promptly finding qualified replacement personnel.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
Mid Penn places an emphasis on managing risks effectively to achieve its business goals and maintain the confidence of its shareholders. Cybersecurity is one of the company's most critical risks and is an integral part of our Risk Management program. We are open about our willingness to take risks and regularly review and update our risk management policies to keep up with the ever-changing financial landscape. Our risk committees, made up of experienced professionals, carefully evaluate the risks associated with our business activities, ensuring that our risk-taking aligns with our overall corporate goals.
Mid Penn engages a team of external assessors, auditors, and consultants to support our cybersecurity and risk management efforts. We seek information and guidance from reputable third-party organizations such as CISA, RMA, and FS-ISAC to aid in making responsible decisions and mitigating risks. We utilize threat detection and prevention technologies to analyze network traffic and identify atypical behavior that may indicate a potential cyber threat. This proactive approach is intended to enable us to detect threats before they can cause harm to our systems or compromise sensitive information. Additionally, we conduct regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments to identify and remedy potential deficiencies in our systems.
Mid Penn protects and monitors its technology environment with industry leading security tools including next-generation firewalls with intrusion prevention services, intrusion detection and response tools, email security gateway, log and event monitoring software, and an industry-leading antivirus solution. Each system is administered and monitored by members of our Information Technology and Information Security staff. Real-time alerts received from these systems are responded to by staff and worked until the threat is determined to be mitigated. Impactful computer security events would be subject to the guidance provided in our Incident Response Program, that is tested annually so we are ready to respond if needed.
Mid Penn relies on several reputable service providers who provide systems or support to our technology environment. Service providers are selected carefully and monitored closely through our Vendor Management program. With routine, ongoing service provider reviews that exist throughout the relationship with the service provider, and with alerting for notable events for our service providers in place, we can quickly identify potential threats and mitigate threats with our service providers as needed.
We have created a robust Information Security Awareness Program to deliver our employees pertinent and timely educational content. Mindful that human error can be a significant factor in cybersecurity incidents, our employees undergo regular training to stay informed about the latest threats and best practices. This reduces the risk of inadvertent security breaches and cultivates a culture of security throughout the organization. Additionally, we regularly conduct social engineering tests on our employees to keep them sharp and alert for threats through email, text messages, and voice calls.
Mid Penn did not experience a material incident to our computer systems or networks in 2024.
Mid Penn's Information Technology and Security management team is responsible for implementing and executing the company's cybersecurity strategy on a day-to-day basis. This team of cybersecurity experts specializes in managing risks for financial services providers. The Chief Information Security Officer has 20 years of experience and is accompanied by an Information Security Officer with eleven years of experience in the field. With more than 15 years of experience in information technology and network security, the Information Technology Operations Manager is highly skilled in network security and risk mitigation. Information Technology and Security management hold a monthly meeting to assess the organization's cybersecurity position and distributes information to the Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors oversees the risk management process, while executive leadership implements risk mitigation and cybersecurity strategies. The company's cybersecurity strategy is actively overseen and guided by the Board of Directors through a quarterly subcommittee meeting with the full Board engaged annually. Executive management provides cybersecurity and risk management updates to the Board through the Risk Committee and the Technology Steering Committee. Information Technology knowledge is considered a core competency by eight of eleven Board members. They guide the full Board in setting cybersecurity objectives, approving policies, and allocating resources.
We acknowledge that risk is a natural part of the financial industry. The threat landscape is ever-changing, and with increasingly sophisticated techniques, threat actors pose a greater risk to Mid Penn and its customers, leaving us vulnerable to cyberattacks and information security incidents. However, our commitment is to maintain a careful balance between innovation and risk mitigation. To achieve this, we have developed a risk appetite that aligns with our strategic goals and regulatory requirements. This framework encourages innovation while ensuring our risks are well-understood, measured, and managed.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Bank owns a building in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, located at 2407 Park Drive, which serves as the Corporation’s headquarters. The Bank also owns a building in Millersburg, Pennsylvania, located at 349 Union Street, which serves as the Bank’s headquarters. Additionally, the Bank owns one building in Halifax, Pennsylvania that serves as an operational support facility and one building in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania that serves as corporate administrative and operational support offices. Administrative space is also leased in Malvern, Pottsville, Lancaster, Clearfield and Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. As of December 31, 2024, the Bank’s retail office network was comprised of 45 full-service retail locations. The Bank owned 26 of those locations and leased 19 locations.
All real estate owned by Mid Penn is free and clear of encumbrances. Mid Penn’s leases expire at various dates through the year 2039 and generally include options to renew. For additional information regarding the lease commitments, See "Note 7 - Leases" , within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Mid Penn and its subsidiaries are subject to various pending and threatened legal proceedings or other matters arising out of the normal conduct of business in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. As of the date of this report, management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate that the aggregate ultimate liability arising out of such pending or threatened matters will be material to Mid Penn’s consolidated financial position. On at least a quarterly basis, Mid Penn assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with such matters. For those matters where it is probable that Mid Penn will incur losses and the amounts of the losses can be reasonably estimated, Mid Penn records an expense and corresponding liability in its consolidated financial statements. To the extent such matters could result in exposure in excess of that liability, the amount of such excess is not currently estimable. The range of losses for matters where an exposure is not currently estimable or considered probable is not believed to be material in the aggregate. This is based on information currently available to Mid Penn and involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties. While Mid Penn does not believe that the outcome of pending or threatened litigation or other matters will be material to Mid Penn’s consolidated financial position, it cannot rule out the possibility that such outcomes will be material to the consolidated results of operations for a particular reporting period in the future. In addition, regardless of the ultimate outcome of any such legal proceeding, inquiry or investigation, any such matter could cause Mid Penn to incur additional expenses, which could be significant, and possibly material, to Mid Penn’s results of operations in any future period.
In addition, management does not know of any material proceedings contemplated by governmental authorities against Mid Penn or any of its properties.

These forward-looking statements represent plans, estimates, objectives, goals, guidelines, expectations, intentions, projections and statements of our beliefs concerning future events, business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, including after giving effect to the Merger, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based. Forward looking statements include without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements, and are typically identified with words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” or words or phrases of similar meaning. We caution that the forward-looking statements are based largely on our expectations and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on factors which are, in many instances, beyond our control. Actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed, or implied by the forward-looking statements.
The following factors, among others, could cause our financial performance to differ materially from that expressed in such forward-looking statements:

• governmental monetary and fiscal policies, as well as legislative and regulatory changes;
• future actions or inactions of the United States government, including a failure to increase the government debt limit or a prolonged shutdown of the federal government;

• an increase in the Pennsylvania Bank Shares Tax to which the Bank’s capital stock is currently subject, or imposition of any additional taxes on the capital stock of Mid Penn or the Bank;
• impacts of the capital and liquidity requirements imposed by bank regulatory agencies;
• the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC, and other accounting and reporting rule making authorities;

• changes in technology;
• our ability to implement business strategies, including our acquisition strategy;

• our ability to attract and retain qualified management and personnel;
• results of regulatory examination and supervision processes;
• the ability to obtain regulatory approvals and satisfy other closing conditions to the Merger, including approval by the shareholders of Mid Penn and William Penn;
• the possibility of increased scrutiny by, and/or additional regulatory requirements of, governmental authorities as a result of the Merger;
• potential exposure to unknown or contingent risks and liabilities we have acquired, or may acquire, or target for acquisition, including in connection with the Merger;

The comparability of the results of operations for the years ended 2024 and 2023, compared to 2022, in general, have been materially impacted by the Brunswick Acquisition, which closed on May 19, 2023.
Mid Penn is not aware of any current trends, events, uncertainties or any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have a material effect on Mid Penn’s or the Bank’s liquidity, capital resources, or operations.
Executive Overview
Mid Penn is a financial holding company incorporated in August 1991 in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Mid Penn generates the majority of its revenues through net interest income, or the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Growth in net interest income is dependent upon balance sheet growth and maintaining or increasing the net interest margin, which is fully taxable-equivalent basis ("FTE") net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The Corporation also generates revenue through fees earned on the various services and products offered to its customers and through gains on sales of assets, such as loans, investments and properties. Offsetting these revenue sources are provisions for credit losses, non-interest expenses and income taxes.

This transaction resulted in the addition of 5 branches in central New Jersey. Mid Penn issued 849,510 shares of its common stock as well as a net cash payment to Brunswick shareholders of $27.6 million, for total consideration of $45.7 million for all outstanding stock and the cancellation of options of Brunswick.
Summary of Financial Results
• Net Income Per Share - Mid Penn’s net income available to common shareholders ("earnings") for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $49.4 million or $2.90 per common share basic and diluted, compared to earnings of $37.4 million or $2.29 per common share basic and diluted for the year ended December 31, 2023. The results for the year ended December 31, 2024 were favorably impacted by loan growth, and interest income growth.
• Net Interest Income
◦ Net Interest Margin - For the year ended December 31, 2024, Mid Penn’s FTE net interest margin was 3.11% versus 3.26% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") decreased rates three times during 2024. The yield on interest-earning assets increased 44 basis point(s) ("bp") for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023 and the rate on interest-bearing liabilities increased 70 bp for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.
◦ Loan Growth - Total loans, net of unearned income, as of December 31, 2024 were $4.4 billion compared to $4.3 billion as of December 31, 2023 , an increase of $190.3 million, or 4.5%. The loan growth occurred primarily within Mid Penn’s commercial real estate loan portfolio. The mix of commercial real estate and commercial portfolios in relation to the total change in the loan portfolio increased 111.1% and 15.9%, respectively from December 31, 2023 to December 31, 2024. Non-owner occupied office commercial real estate exposure represents 28.2% of total loan balances and is primarily limited to suburban offices.
◦ Deposit Growth - Total deposits increased $343.7 million, or 7.9%, from $4.3 billion at December 31, 2023, to $4.7 billion at December 31, 2024.
• Asset Quality - ACL at December 31, 2024 was $35.5 million, or 0.80% of total loans, as compared to $34.2 million, or 0.80% of total loans at December 31, 2023.

MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
◦ Net Charge-offs/Recoveries - Mid Penn had net loan charge-offs of $817 thousand and net loan charge-offs of $332 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
◦ Non-performing assets - Total non-performing assets were $22.7 million at December 31, 2024, an increase compared to non-performing assets of $14.5 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was partially a result of the addition of two commercial loans with a combined balance of $3.0 million, and two commercial real estate loans with a combined balance of $2.3 million being placed on nonaccrual in the fourth quarter of 2024.
◦ Provision/Benefit for credit losses - Loans - The provision for credit losses - loans was $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in provision for the year ended December 31, 2024, is primarily due to a decrease in loss factors across most portfolios. Prior to 2023, ACL and related provision are presented in accordance with the previous accounting guidance using the incurred loss method. The PCL for the year ended December 31, 2023 includes an initial provision for credit losses on non-PCD loans acquired in the Brunswick Acquisition of $2.0 million.
• Noninterest Income - Noninterest income totaled $22.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, a $2.5 million, or 12.4%, increase compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to a $2.2 million increase in other miscellaneous income, driven by increases in Bank-owned life insurance benefits received, and a $1.1 million increase in mortgage banking income, partially offset by a $379 thousand decrease in fiduciary and wealth management and a $314 thousand decrease in mortgage hedging.
• Noninterest Expense - Noninterest expense totaled $117.6 million, a decrease of $972 thousand, or 0.8%, compared to noninterest expense of $118.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by a $5.0 million decrease in merger and acquisition expenses and a $3.0 million decrease in post-acquisition restructuring expenses, partially offset by a $4.8 million increase in salaries and benefits expense, driven by year-end employee bonus incentives, increases in employee salaries, and increased costs of employee medical benefits, a $1.4 million increase in legal and professional fees, and a $1.4 million increase in software licensing and utilization expense.
• Borrowings paid downs - During 2024, Mid Penn paid off $35.3 million of long-term debt.
• Share Repurchases - Mid Penn repurchased 15,500 shares during 2024 at an average price per share of $20.81 under its share repurchase program.
• Business Combinations
◦ On July 31, 2024, Mid Penn acquired the insurance business and related accounts of a full-service employee benefits firm that serves mid to large employers across central and eastern Pennsylvania, northern Maryland, and northern Virginia, for a purchase price of $2.0 million at closing and an additional $800 thousand potentially payable pursuant to a three year earnout.
◦ On May 19, 2023, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of Brunswick through the merger of Brunswick with and into Mid Penn with Mid Penn being the surviving corporation. In connection with this acquisition, Brunswick Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brunswick, merged with and into Mid Penn Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Penn.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Mid Penn’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and conform to general practices within the banking industry. Application of certain principles involves significant judgments and estimates by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. The judgments and estimates used in applying these principles are based on historical experiences and
38
MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
other factors which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and estimates that have been made, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported results of operations.
Management of the Corporation considers the accounting judgments relating to the allowance for credit losses and goodwill impairment to be the accounting area that requires the most subjective and complex judgments.
Allowance for Credit Losses
In accordance with CECL, the ACL, which includes both the ACL - loans and the ACL for OBS credit exposures, is calculated with the objective of maintaining a reserve for current expected credit losses over the remaining expected life of the portfolio. Management's determination of the appropriateness of the reserve is based on continuously monitoring and evaluating the loan portfolio, lending-related commitments, current as well as forecasted economic factors, and other relevant factors. The ACL - loans is an estimate of expected losses inherent within Mid Penn's existing loan portfolio.
The loan loss estimation process involves procedures to appropriately consider the unique characteristics of Mid Penn’s loan portfolio segments. When computing allowance levels, credit loss assumptions are estimated using a model that categorizes loan pools based on loss history and other credit trends and risk characteristics, including current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future. Evaluations of the portfolio and individual credits are inherently subjective, as they require estimates, assumptions and judgments as to the facts and circumstances of particular situations. Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgement by Management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall loan portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the ACL and credit loss expense.
Mid Penn estimates the ACL using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Mid Penn uses a third-party software application to calculate the quantitative portion of the ACL using a methodology and assumptions specific to each loan pool. The qualitative portion of the allowance is based on general economic conditions and other internal and external factors affecting Mid Penn as a whole, as well as specific loans. Factors considered include the following: lending process, concentrations of credit, and credit quality. The quantitative and qualitative portions of the allowance are added together to determine the total ACL, which reflects Management’s expectations of future conditions based on reasonable and supportable forecasts. As such, the calculation of ACL is inherently subjective and requires management to exercise significant judgment. The CECL estimate is highly sensitive to the economic forecasts used to develop the estimate.
While management uses the best information known to it in order to make ACL valuations, adjustments to the ACL may be necessary based on changes in economic and other conditions, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, or changes in accounting guidance. In times of economic slowdown, either local, regional or national, the risk inherent in the loan portfolio could increase resulting in the need for additional provisions to the ACL in future periods. An increase could also be necessitated by an increase in the size of the loan portfolio or in any of its components even though the credit quality of the overall portfolio may be improving.
For further discussion of the methodology used in the determination of the ACL, refer to "Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies", "Note 3 - Investment Securities", "Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans" and "Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management estimates, additional PCL may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods.
The allowance for credit losses - Loans was $35.5 million as of December 31, 2024, an increase of $1.3 million, or 3.9%, compared to $34.2 million as of December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in the reserve for individually analyzed loans during the fourth quarter of 2024.
Goodwill
Mid Penn evaluates goodwill annually for impairment unless events occur which indicate that impairment is possible, a triggering event. At December 31, 2024, Mid Penn had goodwill of $128.2 million and Mid Penn's stock continues to trade below book value.
Our annual impairment test was conducted during the fourth quarter of 2024. Goodwill is calculated as a purchase premium using the market participant and peer group control premium approach. Additional factors considered include actual earnings in relation to forecasted earnings, liquidity levels, changes in deposit balances, and credit quality, among
39
MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
others. No goodwill impairment has been recorded for 2024. Management will continue to monitor internal metrics and macroeconomic trends to determine if there is likelihood of goodwill impairment.
Refer to Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 6 - Goodwill and Intangible Assets for further details on the Company's goodwill.
Results of Operations
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, Mid Penn's primary source of earnings, represents the difference between interest income received on loans, investments, and overnight funds, and interest expense paid on deposits and short- and long-term borrowings. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and changes in average balances (volume) in the various interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. Interest and average rates in the table below are presented on a fully taxable-equivalent basis ("FTE"). Tax-equivalent adjustments were calculated using a statutory corporate tax rate of 21% for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. For purposes of calculating loan yields, average loan balances include non-accrual loans. Loan fees of $4.8 million, $4.6 million and $8.4 million are included with loan interest income in the following table for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

(1) The effect of changing volume and rate, which cannot be segregated, has been allocated entirely to the rate column. Tax-exempt income is shown on a tax equivalent basis using a statutory corporate tax rate of 21% for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, Mid Penn’s FTE net interest margin was 3.11% versus 3.26% for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 3.59% for the year ended December 31, 2022. During 2024, FTE net interest income increased $9.7 million, or 6.6%, compared to 2023. Interest income increased $30.3 million as the result of a $538.2 million, or 11.9%, increase in average interest-earning assets in 2024 compared to 2023, and increased $20.0 million as the result of a 44 bp increase in the yield on interest-earning assets in 2024 compared to 2023. The decrease to net interest margin was primarily a result of an increase in funding costs and growth in average interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by higher yields on interest-earning assets and growth in average interest-earning assets.
Average total loans, net, increased $505.6 million , or 13.1%, contributing $28.6 million to the increase in interest income. The yield on average total loans, net, increased from 5.65% for 2023 to 6.07% for 2024. The increase in the yield was primarily the result of the higher interest rate environment during 2024.
Total average federal funds sold increased $29.3 million , contributing $1.5 million to the increase in FTE interest income, and the average yield on federal funds sold increased 8 bps, contributing $30 thousand to the increase in FTE interest income.
42
MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Interest expense for 2024 increased by $40.5 million or 45.4% when compared to 2023. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 3.25% in 2024 from 2.55% in 2023 and 0.58% in 2022. The rate on total interest-bearing deposits increased to 3.12% in 2024 from 2.40% in 2023 and 0.48% in 2022. The increase in the rate was primarily a result of deposit growth and a shift in the mix of deposits from noninterest-bearing to higher yielding demand, money market and time deposits. Mid Penn continued to offer higher rates to both retain and attract deposits. In addition, average short-term borrowings of $190.9 million were used to help fund loan growth, contributing to the $3.5 million increase in interest expense on short-term borrowings for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to 2023.
Although the effective interest rate impact on interest-earning assets and funding sources can be reasonably estimated at current interest rate levels, the interest-bearing product and pricing options selected by customers, and the future mix of the loan, investment, and deposit products in the Bank's portfolios, may significantly change the estimates used in Mid Penn’s asset and liability management and related interest rate risk simulation models. In addition, our net interest income may be impacted by further interest rate actions of the Federal Reserve’s FOMC.

Provision for Credit Losses - Loans
The provision for credit losses on loans was $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $1.2 million or 34.9% compared to a provision for credit losses of $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The provision for credit losses on loans for the year ended December 31, 2023 decreased $1.0 million, or 23.4%, from the $4.3 million provision for credit losses on loans for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in provision for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in loss factors across most portfolios. The benefit for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures was $628 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to a provision of $404 thousand or the year ended December 31, 2023. Prior to 2023, ACL and related provision are presented in accordance with the previous accounting guidance using the incurred loss method.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, Mid Penn had net charge-offs of $817 thousand compared to net charge-offs of $332 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2023, and net recoveries of $60 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2022 .

MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Other income increased $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in noninterest income is primarily driven by a $2.2 million increase in other miscellaneous noninterest income, driven by increases in Bank-owned life insurance benefits received.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, noninterest expense totaled $117.6 million, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 0.8%, compared to noninterest expense of $118.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by a $5.0 million decrease in merger and acquisition expenses, and a $3.0 million decrease in post-acquisition restructuring, partially offset by a $4.8 million increase in salaries and benefits expense, driven by year-end employee bonus incentives, increases in employee salaries, and increased costs of employee medical benefits, a $1.4 million increase in legal and professional fees, and a $1.4 million increase in software licensing and utilization.

Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $10.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 , an increase of $3.3 million compared to $7.3 million for the same period in 2023 . The provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2024 reflects an effective combined Federal and state tax rate ("ETR") of 17.6%, compared to an ETR of 16.3% for the year ended December 31, 2023 . The increase in the effective tax rates in 2024 compared to 2023 was a result of higher state taxes, driven by a prior year's benefit from the Brunswick acquisition. Generally, Mid Penn’s effective tax rate is below the federal statutory rate due to earnings on tax-exempt loans, investments, and earnings from the cash surrender value of life insurance, as well as the impact of federal income tax credits, including those awarded from Mid Penn’s low-

income housing investments. The realization of Mid Penn’s deferred tax assets is dependent on future earnings. Mid Penn currently anticipates that future earnings will be adequate to fully realize the currently recorded deferred tax assets.
Financial Condition
Mid Penn’s total assets were $5.5 billion as of December 31, 2024, reflecting an increase of $180.1 million, or 3.4%, compared to total assets of $5.3 billion as of December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by organic loan growth, increases in investment securities, and an increase in Fed Funds Sold.
Investment Securities
Mid Penn’s portfolio of held-to-maturity ("HTM") securities, recorded at amortized cost, decreased $16.7 million to $382.4 million as of December 31, 2024, as compared to $399.1 million as of December 31, 2023. Mid Penn’s total available-for-sale ("AFS") securities portfolio increased $36.9 million from $223.6 million at December 31, 2023 to $260.5 million at December 31, 2024.
At December 31, 2024, the unrealized loss on AFS investment securities resulted in a negative impact to shareholders’ equity of $1.6 million (comprised of a gross unrealized loss on securities of $2.0 million, net of deferred income tax). At December 31, 2023, the unrealized gain on AFS investment securities resulted in a positive impact to shareholders’ equity of $2.0 million (comprised of a gross unrealized gain on securities of $2.1 million, net of deferred income tax). Mid Penn does not have any significant concentrations of non-governmental securities within its investment portfolio.
Mid Penn’s investment portfolio is utilized primarily to support overall liquidity and interest rate risk management, to provide collateral supporting pledging requirements for public funds on deposit, and to generate additional interest income within reasonable risk parameters. Mid Penn’s investment portfolio includes both held-to-maturity securities and available-for-sale securities.

The majority of the Bank's loan portfolio is to businesses and individuals located within the Bank's primary market area of the Pennsylvania counties of Berks, Blair, Bucks, Chester, Clearfield, Cumberland, Dauphin, Fayette, Huntingdon, Lancaster, Lehigh, Luzerne, Montgomery, Perry, Schuylkill and Westmoreland, along with Middlesex and Monmouth counties of New Jersey. Commercial real estate, construction, and land development loans are collateralized mainly by mortgages on the income-producing real estate or land involved. Commercial, industrial, and agricultural loans are primarily made to business entities and may be secured by business assets, including commercial real estate, or may be unsecured. Residential real estate loans are secured by liens on the residential property. Consumer loans include installment loans, lines of credit and home equity loans. The Bank has no significant concentration of credit to any one borrower. The Bank’s highest concentration of credit by loan type is in commercial real estate.
Credit risk is managed through portfolio diversification, underwriting policies and procedures, and loan monitoring practices. Lenders are provided with detailed underwriting policies for all types of credit risks accepted by the Bank and must obtain appropriate internal approvals for credit extensions. The Bank also maintains strict documentation requirements and robust credit quality assurance practices in order to identify credit portfolio weaknesses as early as possible, so any exposures that are discovered might be mitigated or potential losses reduced. The Bank generally secures its loans with real estate, with such collateral values dependent and subject to change based on real estate market conditions within its market area.

Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Credit Losses
Mid Penn adopted FASB ASC 326, in accordance with the amendments of FASB ASU 2016-13, effective January 1, 2023. The guidance in FASB ASC 326 replaced Mid Penn’s previous incurred loss methodology with a methodology that reflects the current expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information
53
MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
to determine credit losses. Mid Penn’s ACL methodology for loans is based upon guidance within FASB ASC Subtopic 326-20, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measured at Amortized Cost," as well as regulatory guidance from the FDIC, the Bank's primary federal regulator. The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Credit quality within the loan portfolio is continuously monitored by management and is reflected within the ACL for loans. The ACL is an estimate of expected losses inherent within Mid Penn’s existing loan portfolio. The ACL is adjusted through the provision for credit losses and reduced by the charge off of loan amounts, net of recoveries.
The loan loss estimation process involves procedures to appropriately consider the unique characteristics of Mid Penn’s loan portfolio segments. When computing allowance levels, credit loss assumptions are estimated using a model that categorizes loan pools based on loss history, delinquency status and other credit trends and risk characteristics, including current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future. Evaluations of the portfolio and individual credits are inherently subjective, as they require estimates, assumptions and judgments as to the facts and circumstances of particular situations. Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgement by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall loan portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance and credit loss expense.
The following table represents the allowance for credit loss as a percentage of total loans:

For a complete description of Mid Penn’s ACL methodology and the quantitative and qualitative factors included in the calculation, please see "Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses – Loans" included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report.
Upon the adoption of FASB ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, Mid Penn recorded an overall increase of $15.0 million to the ACL on January 1, 2023 as a result of the adoption of CECL. Retained earnings decreased $11.5 million and deferred tax assets increased by $3.1 million. Included in the $15.0 million increase to the ACL was $3.1 million for certain OBS credit exposures that were previously recognized in other liabilities before the adoption of CECL. The ACL and the related PCL for the year ended December 31, 2022 reflects Mid Penn’s application of the incurred loss method for estimating credit losses.

Ratio of ACL to non-performing loans 157.07 % 240.48 % 220.82 %
Total nonperforming assets were $22.7 million at December 31, 2024, an increase compared to nonperforming assets of $14.5 million at December 31, 2023. The increase since December 31, 2023 was primarily the result of the addition of two commercial loans with a combined balance of $3.0 million, and two commercial real estate loans with a combined balance of $2.3 million being placed on nonaccrual in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Deposits and Other Funding Sources
Mid Penn's primary source of funds are retail deposits from businesses, public funds depositors, and consumers in its market area. For the year ended December 31, 2024, deposits totaled $4.7 billion, an increase of $343.7 million, or 7.9%, compared to $4.3 billion as of December 31, 2023.
Average balances and average interest rates applicable to deposits by major classification for the years ended December 31:

MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
As of December 31, 2024, uninsured deposits were approximately $1.4 billion compared to $1.2 billion as of December 31, 2023. The maturities of the uninsured time deposits as of December 31, 2024 were as follows:
(In thousands) 2024
Three months or less $ 183,138
Over three months to six months 89,493
Over six months to twelve months 72,526
Over twelve months 15,552
$ 360,709
Short-term borrowings as of December 31, 2024 totaled $2.0 million, compared to $241.5 million as of December 31, 2023, and consisted of $2.0 million of FHLB overnight borrowings. As of December 31, 2024, the Bank had long-term debt outstanding in the amount of $23.6 million compared to $59.0 million as of December 31, 2023.
Subordinated debt and trust preferred securities totaled $45.7 million as of December 31, 2024 compared to $46.4 million as of December 31, 2023. There were no redemptions of subordinated debt in 2024. In April 2023, Mid Penn redeemed $10.0 million subordinated debt issued in December of 2017. See "Note 11 - Subordinated Debt and Trust Preferred Securities " , within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Shareholders' Equity and Capital
Shareholders' equity, or capital, is evaluated in relation to total assets and the risk associated with those assets. The detailed computation of Mid Penn’s regulatory capital ratios can be found in "Note 17 - Regulatory Matters " , within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The greater the Corporation’s capital resources, the more likely it is to meet its cash obligations and absorb unforeseen losses. Capital management practices have been, and will continue to be, of paramount importance to the Corporation in support of both its regulatory capital requirements and its shareholders.
Shareholders’ equity increased $112.7 million, or 20.8%, to $655.0 million as of December 31, 2024 from $542.4 million as of December 31, 2023, primarily as result of completion of the underwritten public offering of 2,375,000 shares of common stock in November 2024, and net income, partially offset by dividends declared of $13.8 million and share repurchases totaling $323 thousand.
Mid Penn maintained regulatory capital levels, leverage ratios, and risk-based capital ratios as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, as follows:
December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Regulatory Minimum for Capital Adequacy
Tier I Leverage Capital (to Average Assets) 9.98 % 8.32 % 4.00 %
Common Equity Tier I (to Risk-Weighted Assets) 12.09 9.78 7.00
Tier I Risk-Based Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) 12.09 9.78 8.50
Total Risk-Based Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) 13.98 % 11.69 % 10.50 %
As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Mid Penn and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements, and the Bank was considered "well-capitalized". However, future changes in regulations could increase capital requirements and may have an adverse effect on capital resources.
Liquidity
Mid Penn’s objective is to maintain adequate liquidity to meet funding needs at a reasonable cost and to provide contingency plans to meet unanticipated funding needs or a loss of funding sources, while minimizing interest rate risk.
56
MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Adequate liquidity provides resources for credit needs of borrowers, for depositor withdrawals, and for funding corporate operations. Sources of liquidity are as follows:
• a growing core deposit base;
• proceeds from the sale or maturity of investment securities;
• payments received on loans and mortgage-backed securities;
• overnight correspondent bank borrowings on various credit lines; and
• borrowing capacity available from the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Discount Window available to Mid Penn.
Mid Penn believes its core deposits are generally stable even in periods of changing interest rates. Liquidity is measured and monitored daily, allowing management to better understand and react to balance sheet trends. These measurements indicate that liquidity generally remains stable and exceeds our minimum defined levels of adequacy. Other than the trends of continued competitive pressures and volatile interest rates, and the uncertain impact of the current inflationary environment, there are no known demands, commitments, events, or uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.
On at least a quarterly basis, a comprehensive liquidity analysis is reviewed by the Asset Liability Committee and Board of Directors. The analysis provides a summary of the current liquidity measurements, projections, and future liquidity positions given various levels of liquidity stress. Management also maintains a detailed Contingency Funding Plan designed to respond to overall stress in the financial condition of the banking industry or a prospective liquidity problem specific to Mid Penn.
The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows provide additional information. Mid Penn’s operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2024 provided $51.4 million of cash, mainly due to net income. Cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2024 was $208.7 million, mainly the result of the net increase in loans. Cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2024 totaled $131.2 million, primarily the result of an increase in net deposits.
Contractual Obligations
Mid Penn has substantial aggregate contractual obligations to make future cash payments as of December 31, 2024 as outlined below:
Total Payments Due by Period
(Dollars in thousands) One Year or
Less One to Three
Years Three to Five

$ 1,763,969 $ 1,514,961 $ 177,240 $ 19,009 $ 52,759
Details on expected maturities of investments, loans and deposits are presented in the above sections of Management's Discussion and Analysis. We are not aware of any other commitments or contingent liabilities which may have a material adverse impact on Mid Penn’s liquidity or capital resources.
Effects of Inflation
A bank's asset and liability structure is substantially different from that of an industrial company in that virtually all assets and liabilities of a bank are monetary in nature. Management believes the impact of inflation on its financial results depends principally upon Mid Penn's ability to measure its sensitivity to changes in interest rates and to take appropriate actions, as needed or controllable by the Bank, to mitigate the impacts of inflation on performance. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or at the same magnitude as the prices of other goods and services. As discussed
57
MID PENN BANCORP, INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
previously, management seeks to manage the relationship between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against wide interest rate fluctuations, including those resulting from inflation.
Information included elsewhere in this report will assist in the understanding of how Mid Penn is positioned to react to changing interest rates and inflationary trends. In particular, the previously discussed risk factors, the composition of and yields on loans and investments, and the composition and costs of deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities, should be considered.
Off-Balance Sheet Risk
Mid Penn makes contractual commitments to extend credit and extends lines of credit, which are subject to Mid Penn's credit approval and monitoring procedures. As of December 31, 2024, commitments to extend credit amounted to $1.2 billion compared to $1.5 billion as of December 31, 2023.
Mid Penn also issues standby letters of credit to its customers. The risk associated with standby letters of credit is essentially the same as the credit risk involved in loan extensions to customers. Standby letters of credit increased to $64.3 million at December 31, 2024, from $62.2 million at December 31, 2023.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a financial institution, Mid Penn’s primary source of market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to fluctuations in Mid Penn’s future earnings (earnings at risk) resulting from changes in interest rates. This exposure or sensitivity is a function of the repricing characteristics of Mid Penn's portfolio of assets and liabilities. Each asset and liability reprices either at maturity or during the life of the instrument. Interest rate sensitivity is measured as the difference between the volume of assets and liabilities that are subject to repricing in a future period of time.
The principal purpose of asset-liability management is to maximize current and future net interest income within acceptable levels of interest rate risk while satisfying liquidity and capital requirements. Net interest income is increased by increasing the net interest margin and by volume growth. Thus, the goal of interest rate risk management is to maintain a balance between risk and reward such that net interest income is maximized while risk is maintained at an acceptable level.
Mid Penn utilizes an asset-liability management model to measure the impact of interest rate movements on its interest rate sensitivity position. Mid Penn’s management also reviews the traditional maturity gap analysis regularly. Mid Penn does not always attempt to achieve an exact match between interest sensitive assets and liabilities because it believes that an actively managed amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate in the management of Mid Penn’s profitability.
Modeling techniques and simulation analysis involve assumptions and estimates that inherently cannot be measured with complete precision. Key assumptions in the analyses include maturity and repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities, prepayments on amortizing assets, non-maturing deposit sensitivity, and loan and deposit pricing. These assumptions are inherently uncertain due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of rate changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors. However, the analyses are useful in quantifying risk and provide a relative gauge of Mid Penn’s interest rate risk position over time.
Management reviews interest rate risk on a quarterly basis. This analysis includes earnings scenarios whereby interest rates are increased by 100, 200, 300, and 400 bp and decreased by 100, 200, 300, and 400 bp. These scenarios, detailed in the table below, indicate that Mid Penn would experience enhanced net interest income over a one-year time frame due to upward interest rate changes, while a reduction in interest rates would result in a decline in net interest income over a one-year time frame; however, actual results could vary significantly from the calculations prepared by management. At December 31, 2024, all interest rate risk levels according to the model were within the tolerance limits of the Board-approved policy.
58
The following table reflects the effect of hypothetical changes in interest rates:

Management Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
The Corporation carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in SEC Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon the evaluation, the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Corporation’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
The management of the Corporation is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Corporation’s internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
The effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting has been audited by RSM US LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013, and our report dated March 13, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans – Adjustments to Historical Losses
As described in Note 1 and Note 4 of the financial statements, the Company’s allowance for credit losses (ACL) on loans is established through a provision for credit losses on loans and represents management’s estimate of all expected credit losses over the expected contractual life of the Company’s loan portfolio. The methodology for estimating the amount of expected credit losses reported in the ACL on loans has two basic components: a collective, or pooled, component for estimated expected credit losses for pools of loans that share similar risk characteristics, and an asset-specific component involving individual loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans and the measurement of expected credit losses for such individual loans. In estimating the ACL on loans for the collective component, loans are segregated into loan pools based on loan purpose codes and similar risk characteristics. The ACL on loans as of December 31, 2024 was $35.5 million, which consists of an ACL on loans collectively evaluated for credit losses of $34.1 million and an ACL on loans individually evaluated for credit losses of $1.4 million.
The Company estimates the collective ACL on loans utilizing a discounted cash flow (DCF) methodology applied to portfolio segments and their loan pools segregated by similar risk characteristics. The Company’s DCF methodology adjusts loan level contractual cash flows for probability of default and loss given default and prepayment and curtailment rate assumptions to calculate expected future cash flows. A correlation between the selected macroeconomic indicators of
62
national unemployment rate and GDP and historic loss levels, adjusted to include representative peer group loss experience, was developed to predict loss expectations based on current economic conditions and a reasonable and supportable forecast period. At the end of the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the Company reverts to the long-term mean of the macroeconomic indicator. For the December 31, 2024 ACL on loans, the Company determined that reasonable and supportable forecasts could be made for a 12-month period and used a reversion period of four quarters reverting to the historical mean on a straight-line basis. The Company also calculates a qualitative portion of the ACL, which is based on general economic conditions and other internal and external factors affecting Mid Penn’s loan portfolio. At December 31, 2024, qualitative factors considered for the ACL on loans included concentrations of credit, lending process, and peer group divergence.
We identified the adjustments to historical losses, both as it relates to the economic forecast selection and the qualitative factors, within the Company’s ACL on loans calculation as a critical audit matter as auditing the underlying adjustments required significant auditor judgment in the evaluation of the Company’s assumptions.
Our audit procedures related to the Company’s adjustments to historical loss information component of the ACL on loans included the following, among others:
• We obtained an understanding of the relevant controls related to the ACL on loans and tested such controls for design and operating effectiveness, including controls relating to management’s review and approval of the ACL on loans calculation, management’s assessment and review of the adjustments to historical loss information component of the ACL on loans for current conditions and forecasted scenarios and management’s validation of underlying source data.
• We tested management’s calculation of adjustments to historical loss information within the ACL on loans calculation by:
◦ Agreeing calculation inputs to the Company’s internal and external source data, including for current and forecasted conditions;
◦ Verifying the mathematical accuracy of the calculation of adjustments to historical loss information; and
◦ Evaluating whether adjustments to historical loss information within the ACL on loans, or lack thereof, were reasonable and consistent with Company provided internal data and external independent data, including data related to current and forecasted periods.
• We assessed the reasonableness of management’s calculated changes in adjustments to historical loss information within the ACL on loans calculation by:
◦ Evaluating the magnitude and directional consistency of changes, or lack thereof, in the level of adjustments to historical loss information between periods; and
◦ Evaluating whether management’s conclusions were reasonable and consistent with Company provided internal data and external independent data, including data related to current and forecasted periods.
• We agreed management’s calculated adjustments to historical loss information to the ACL on loans calculation.
Goodwill Impairment – Fair Value of Reporting Unit
As described in Note 1 and Note 6 of the financial statements, the Company’s goodwill balance was $128.2 million as of December 31, 2024. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or at interim periods if certain events occur which may indicate the fair value of the reporting unit has fallen below its carrying amount, by comparing the estimated fair value of Company’s single reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company estimates the fair value of its single reporting unit through multiple valuation techniques, including a public company market change of control approach and a peer group change of control approach. Significant judgment is required to estimate the fair value of the Company’s single reporting unit including the evaluation of current market data as well as the selection of a control premium.
We identified the Company’s annual goodwill impairment test as a critical audit matter due to the complexity of the analysis and certain significant assumptions made by management in estimating the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit such as the determination of a reasonable control premium and the identification of peer public companies. Auditing management’s assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgement, subjectivity, and increased audit effort, including the use of internal valuation specialists, due to the impact these assumptions could have on the accounting estimate.
Our audit procedures related to the Company’s annual goodwill impairment test included the following, among others:
• We obtained an understanding of the relevant controls related to management’s annual test of goodwill for impairment and tested such controls for design and operating effectiveness, including controls over management’s preparation of the significant assumptions such as the control premium.
63
• We tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by management in the fair value estimate by agreeing Company financial data to internal Company records.
• We utilized internal valuation specialists who assisted in the following, among others:
◦ Evaluating the completeness and accuracy of the market data used in management’s calculation of the control premium by comparing such market data to independently sourced information.
◦ Evaluating the comparability of the Company to the peer public companies identified by management through consideration of size, location, and recent results of operations, among other factors.
◦ Evaluating the appropriateness of the valuation models used in management’s analysis and comparing management’s selected control premium to publicly available market data.
We have served as the Company's auditor since 2020.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements of the Company and our report dated March 13, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting in the accompanying Management Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. ("Mid Penn" or the "Corporation"), through operations conducted by Mid Penn Bank (the "Bank") and its nonbank subsidiaries, engages in a full-service commercial banking and trust business, making available to the community a wide range of financial services, including, but not limited to, mortgage and home equity loans, secured and unsecured commercial and consumer loans, lines of credit, construction financing, farm loans, community development loans, loans to non-profit entities and local government loans, and various types of time and demand deposits including but not limited to, checking accounts, savings accounts, clubs, money market deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, and Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRA"). In addition, the Bank provides a full range of trust and wealth management services through its Trust Department. Deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") to the extent provided by law.
Mid Penn also fulfills the insurance needs of both existing and potential customers through MPB Risk Services, LLC, doing business as MPB Insurance and Risk Management.
The financial services are provided to individuals, partnerships, non-profit organizations, and corporations through its retail banking offices located in throughout Pennsylvania and two counties in New Jersey.
Basis of Presentation
For all periods presented, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mid Penn Bank, and five wholly-owned nonbank subsidiaries, MPB Realty, LLC, MPB Financial Services, LLC, which includes MPB Wealth Management, LLC (which ceased operating during the first quarter of 2024) and MPB Risk Services, LLC, and MPB Launchpad Fund I, LLC. As of December 31, 2024, the accounts and activities of these nonbank subsidiaries were not material to warrant separate disclosure or segment reporting. As a result, Mid Penn has only one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
For comparative purposes, the December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 balances have been reclassified, when necessary, to conform to the 2024 presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net income or total shareholders’ equity. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation of the periods presented have been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
Mid Penn has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date of December 31, 2024 for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was conducted through the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements.
The accounting and reporting policies of Mid Penn conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and to general practice within the financial industry. Following is a description of the more significant accounting policies.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Significant Group of Concentrations of Credit Risk - Most of the Corporation’s activities are with customers located within Pennsylvania . "Note 3 - In vestment Securities" discusses the types of investment securities in which the Corporation invests. "Note 4 - L oans and Allowance for Loan Losses" discusses the types of lending that the Corporation engages in as well as loan concentrations. The Corporation does not have a significant concentration of credit risk with any one customer.
Fair Value Measurements - The Corporation uses estimates of fair value in applying various accounting standards for its consolidated financial statements on either a recurring or non-recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing and able market participants. The Corporation groups
72
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three hierarchy levels, based on the observability and transparency of the inputs.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. It is the Corporation’s policy to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in estimating fair value. Unobservable inputs are utilized in determining fair value estimates only to the extent that observable inputs are not available. The need to use unobservable inputs generally results from a lack of market liquidity and trading volume. Transfers between levels of fair value hierarchy are recorded at the end of the reporting period.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, balances due from banks, and federal funds sold, all of which mature within ninety days.
Restrictions on Cash and Due from Bank Accounts - The Bank is required by banking regulations to maintain certain minimum cash reserves. As of both December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was no cash reserve balances required to be maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia because the Bank had sufficient vault cash available.
Debt Investment Securities - Mid Penn determines the classification of investment securities at the time of purchase. If Mid Penn has the intent and the ability at the time of purchase to hold debt securities until maturity, they are classified as held-to-maturity ("HTM"). HTM investment securities are stated at amortized cost. Debt securities Mid Penn does not intend to hold to maturity are classified as available for sale ("AFS") and carried at estimated fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes. Available for sale securities are a part of Mid Penn’s asset/liability management strategy and may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, prepayment risk or other market factors. Management has elected to reclassify realized gains and losses from accumulated other comprehensive income when securities are sold on the trade date.
Interest income and dividends on securities are recognized in interest income on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized as an adjustment to interest income over the period to maturity of the related security using the effective interest method. Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities are determined using the specific identification method.
ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, was adopted by Mid Penn on January 1, 2023. ASC 326 introduced the CECL methodology for estimating allowances for credit losses. ASC 326 applies to all financial instruments carried at amortized cost, including HTM securities, and makes targeted improvements to the accounting for credit losses on AFS securities.
In order to comply with ASC 326, Mid Penn conducted a review of its investment portfolio and determined that for certain classes of securities it would be appropriate to assume the expected credit loss to be zero. This zero-credit loss assumption applies to debt issuances of the U.S. Treasury and agencies and instrumentalities of the United States government. The reasons behind the adoption of the zero-credit loss assumption are as follows:
• High credit rating
• Long history with no credit losses
• Guaranteed by a sovereign entity
• Widely recognized as "risk-free rate"
• Can print its own currency
• Currency is routinely held by central banks, used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as reserve currency
• Currently under the U.S. Government conservatorship or receivership

Mid Penn will continuously monitor any changes in economic conditions, credit downgrades, changes to explicit or implicit guarantees granted to certain debt issuers, and any other relevant information that would indicate potential credit deterioration and prompt Mid Penn to reconsider its zero-credit loss assumption.
At the date of adoption, Mid Penn’s estimated allowance for credit losses on AFS and HTM securities under ASC 326 was deemed immaterial due to the composition of these portfolios. Both portfolios consist primarily of U.S. government agency guaranteed mortgage-backed securities for which the risk of loss is minimal. Therefore, Mid Penn did not recognize a cumulative effect adjustment through retained earnings related to the AFS and HTM securities.
AFS Securities
ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, made targeted improvements to the accounting for credit losses on AFS securities. The concept of other-than-temporarily impaired has been replaced with the allowance for credit losses. Unlike HTM securities, AFS securities are evaluated on an individual level and pooling of securities is not allowed.
Quarterly, Mid Penn evaluates if any security has a fair value less than its amortized cost. Once these securities are identified, in order to determine whether a decline in fair value resulted from a credit loss or other factors, Mid Penn performs further analysis as outlined below:
• Review the extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized cost and observe the security’s lowest credit rating as reported by third-party credit ratings companies.
• The securities that violate the credit loss triggers above would be subjected to additional analysis that may include, but are not limited to: changes in market interest rates, changes in securities credit ratings, security type, service area economic factors, financial performance of the issuer/or obligor of the underlying issue and third-party guarantee.
• If Mid Penn determines that a credit loss exists, the credit portion of the allowance will be measured using a DCF analysis using the effective interest rate as of the security’s purchase date. The amount of credit loss Mid Penn records will be limited to the amount by which the amortized cost exceeds the fair value.
The DCF analysis utilizes contractual maturities, as well as third-party credit ratings and cumulative default rates published annually by a reputable third-party.
At December 31, 2024, the results of the analysis did not identify any securities that violate the credit loss triggers; therefore, no DCF analysis was performed and no credit loss was recognized on any of the securities available for sale.
Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses for AFS securities. At December 31, 2024, accrued interest receivable totaled $ 1.2 million for AFS securities and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.
HTM Securities
ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, requires institutions to measure expected credit losses on financial assets carried at amortized cost on a collective or pool basis when similar risks exist. Mid Penn uses several levels of segmentation in order to measure expected credit losses:
• The portfolio is segmented into agency and non-agency securities.
• The non-agency securities are separated into state and political subdivision obligations and corporate debt securities.
Each individual segment is categorized by third-party credit ratings.
As discussed above, Mid Penn has determined that for certain classes of securities it would be appropriate to assume the expected credit loss to be zero, which include debt issuances of the U.S. Treasury and agencies and instrumentalities of the United States government. This assumption will be reviewed and attested to quarterly.
At December 31, 2024, Mid Penn’s HTM securities totaled $ 382.4 million. After applying appropriate probability of default and loss given default assumptions, the total amount of current expected credit losses was deemed immaterial. Therefore, no reserve was recorded at December 31, 2024.

Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses for HTM securities. At December 31, 2024, accrued interest receivable totaled $ 1.8 million for HTM securities and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.
At December 31, 2024, Mid Penn had no HTM securities that were past due 30 days or more as to principal or interest payments. Mid Penn had no HTM securities classified as nonaccrual at December 31, 2024.
Equity Securities - The Corporation reports its equity securities with readily determinable fair values at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, with realized and unrealized gains and losses reported in other expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, Mid Penn’s equity securities consisted of Community Reinvestment Act funds totaling $ 428 thousand and $ 438 thousand, respectively. No equity securities were sold during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") and Atlantic Community Bankers' Bank ("ACBB") Stock - The Bank is a member of the FHLB and the ACBB and is required to maintain an investment in the stock of the FHLB and ACBB. No market exists for these stocks, and the Bank’s investment can be liquidated only through redemption by the FHLB or ACBB, at the discretion of and subject to conditions imposed by the FHLB and ACBB. Historically, FHLB and ACBB stock redemptions have been at cost (par value), which equals the Corporation’s carrying value. The Corporation monitors its investment in FHLB and ACBB stock for impairment through review of recent financial results of the FHLB and ACBB including capital adequacy and liquidity position, dividend payment history, redemption history and information from credit agencies. The Corporation has not identified any indicators of impairment of FHLB or ACBB stock. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 dividends received from the FHLB totaled $ 1.3 million, $ 864 thousand, and $ 289 thousand respectively.
Investment in Limited Partnership - Mid Penn is a limited partner in a partnership that provides low-income housing in Enola, Pennsylvania. The carrying value of Mid Penn’s investment in the limited partnership was zero at December 31, 2024 and $ 15 thousand at December 31, 2023, net of amortization, using the proportional amortization method and is reported in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Mid Penn’s maximum exposure to loss is limited to the carrying value of its investment.
Mid Penn also owns a limited partnership interest in a low-income housing project to construct thirty-seven apartments and common amenities in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. The total investment in this limited partnership, net of amortization, was $ 3.7 million and $ 4.5 million on December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and was included in the reported balance of other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. All of the units qualified for Federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credits ("LIHTCs") as provided for in Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Mid Penn’s limited partner capital contribution commitment was $ 7.6 million, and the investment was fully funded within a three-year period beginning in 2020 and ending during the first quarter of 2021. The investment in the limited partnership is reported in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and is being amortized over a ten-year period using the proportional amortization method which began upon commencement of operations of the facility in December 2021. The project was formally awarded $ 8.5 million in total LIHTCs by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency, which will be recognized over the ten-year period from December 2021 through November 2029. Mid Penn received low-income housing tax credits related to this project of $ 2.2 million for the tax year ended December 31, 2024, $ 1.3 million for the tax year ended December 31, 2023, and $ 853 thousand for the tax year ended December 31, 2022. Mid Penn’s maximum exposure to loss is limited to the carrying value of its investment.

Loans Held for Sale - During the third quarter of 2021, the Corporation made the election to measure mortgage loans held for sale at fair value. Derivative financial instruments related to mortgage banking activities are also recorded at fair value, as detailed under the heading "Mortgage Banking Derivative Financial Instruments," below. The Corporation determines fair value for its mortgage loans held for sale based on the price that secondary market investors would pay for loans with similar characteristics, including interest rate and term, as of the date fair value is measured. Changes in fair values during the period are recorded as components of mortgage banking income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Interest income earned on mortgage loans held for sale is classified in interest income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Loans - Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future are reported at their outstanding principal balances, net of an allowance for loan losses, unamortized deferred fees and costs and unamortized premiums or discounts. The net amount of nonrefundable loan origination fees and certain direct costs associated with the lending process are deferred and amortized to interest income over the contractual lives of the loans using methods which approximate the level yield method. Discounts and premiums are amortized or accreted to interest income over the estimated term of the loans using methods that approximate the level yield method. Interest income on loans is accrued based on the unpaid principal balance outstanding and the contractual terms of the loan agreements.
A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is comprised of commercial and real estate loans throughout Pennsylvania. The ability of the Corporation’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the general economic conditions of this area.
The loan portfolio is segmented into commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, construction loans, residential mortgage loans, and consumer loans. Commercial and industrial loans are underwritten after evaluating and understanding the borrower’s ability to repay the loan through operating profitably and effectively growing its business. The Corporation’s management examines current and projected cash flows to determine the ability of the borrower to repay their obligations as agreed. Commercial loans are primarily made based on the credit quality and cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and may incorporate a personal guarantee to add strength to the credit and reduce the risk on a transaction to an acceptable level; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis to the most credit worthy borrowers.
Commercial real estate loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial loans. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans is generally largely dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan.
With respect to loans to developers and builders, the Corporation generally requires the borrower to have a proven record of success and an expertise in the building industry. Construction loans are underwritten utilizing feasibility studies, independent appraisal reviews, sensitivity analysis of absorption and lease rates and financial analysis of the developers and property owners. Construction loans are generally based upon estimates of costs and value associated with the complete project. These estimates may be inaccurate. Construction loans often involve the disbursement of substantial funds with repayment substantially dependent on the success of the ultimate project.

MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
The Corporation’s non-real estate consumer loans are based on the borrower’s proven earning capacity over the term of the loan. The Corporation monitors payment performance periodically for consumer loans to identify any deterioration in the borrower’s financial strength. To monitor and manage consumer loan risk, policies and procedures are developed and modified, as needed, jointly by management and staff. This activity, coupled with a relatively small volume of consumer loans, minimizes risk.
Acquired Loans - At the purchase or acquisition date, loans are evaluated to determine whether there has been more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. Loans that have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination are referred to as PCD loans. In its evaluation of whether a loan has experienced more than insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination, Mid Penn takes into consideration loan grades, past due and nonaccrual status. Mid Penn may also consider external credit rating agency ratings for borrowers and for non-commercial loans, FICO score or band, probability of default levels, and number of times past due. At the purchase or acquisition date, the amortized cost basis of PCD loans is equal to the purchase price and an initial estimate of credit losses. The initial recognition of expected credit losses on PCD loans has no impact on net income. When the initial measurement of expected credit losses on PCD loans is calculated on a pooled loan basis, the expected credit losses are allocated to each loan within the pool. Any difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the unpaid principal balance of the loan represents a noncredit discount or premium, which is accreted (or amortized) into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent changes to the ACL on PCD loans are recorded through the PCL. For purchased loans that are not deemed to have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination and are therefore not deemed PCD, any discounts or premiums included in the purchase price are accreted (or amortized) over the contractual life of the individual loan.
Loans are charged off against the ACL, with any subsequent recoveries credited back to the ACL account. Expected recoveries may not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged off and expected to be charged off.
There were no loans acquired for the year ended December 31, 2024. Loans acquired in the Brunswick acquisition, included in the balance of loans, net of unearned interest, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for December 31, 2023 totaled $ 324.5 million.
Non-accrual Loans - The Corporation classifies loans as past due when the payment of principal or interest is greater than 30 days delinquent based on the contractual next payment due date. The Corporation’s policies related to when loans are placed on non-accrual status conform to guidelines prescribed by regulatory authorities. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when it is probable that principal or interest is not fully collectible, or generally when principal or interest becomes 90 days past due, whichever occurs first. When loans are placed on non-accrual status, interest receivable is reversed against interest income in the current period and amortization of any discount ceases. Interest payments received thereafter are applied as a reduction to the remaining principal balance unless management believes that the ultimate collection of the principal is likely, in which case payments are recognized in earnings on a cash basis. Loans are removed from non-accrual status when they become current as to both principal and interest and the collectability of principal and interest is no longer doubtful.
Generally, a non-accrual loan that is restructured remains on non-accrual for a reasonable period of time (generally, at least six consecutive months) to demonstrate the borrower can meet the restructured terms. However, performance prior to the restructuring, or significant events that coincide with the restructuring, are considered in assessing whether the borrower can meet the new terms and may result in the loan being returned to accrual status after a shorter performance period. If the borrower’s ability to meet the revised payment schedule is not reasonably assured, the loan remains classified as a non-accrual loan.
Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty - From time to time, we may modify certain loans to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. In some cases, these modifications may result in new loans. Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may be in the form of principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or a term extension, or a combination thereof, among other things.
Allowance for Credit Losses - Mid Penn’s ACL - loans methodology is based upon guidance within FASB ASC Subtopic 326-20, as well as regulatory guidance from the FDIC, its primary federal regulator. The ACL - loans is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Credit quality within the loan portfolio is continuously monitored by management and is reflected within the ACL -
77
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
loans. The ACL - loans is an estimate of expected losses inherent within Mid Penn’s existing loan portfolio. The ACL - loans is adjusted through the PCL and reduced by the charge off of loan amounts, net of recoveries.
The loan loss estimation process involves procedures to appropriately consider the unique characteristics of Mid Penn’s loan portfolio segments. When computing allowance levels, credit loss assumptions are estimated using a model that categorizes loan pools based on loss history and other credit trends and risk characteristics, including current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future. Evaluations of the portfolio and individual credits are inherently subjective, as they require estimates, assumptions and judgments as to the facts and circumstances of particular situations. Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgement by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall loan portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the ACL and credit loss expense.
Mid Penn estimates the ACL using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Mid Penn uses a third-party software application to calculate the quantitative portion of the ACL using a methodology and assumptions specific to each loan pool. The qualitative portion of the allowance is based on general economic conditions and other internal and external factors affecting Mid Penn as a whole, as well as specific loans. Factors considered include the following: lending process, concentrations of credit, and peer group divergence. The quantitative and qualitative portions of the allowance are added together to determine the total ACL, which reflects management’s expectations of future conditions based on reasonable and supportable forecasts.
The methodology for estimating the amount of expected credit losses reported in the ACL has two basic components: a collective, or pooled, component for estimated expected credit losses for pools of loans that share similar risk characteristics, and an asset-specific component involving individual loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans and the measurement of expected credit losses for such individual loans. In estimating the ACL for the collective component, loans are segregated into loan pools based on loan purpose codes and similar risk characteristics.
The commercial real estate and residential mortgage loan portfolio segments include loans for both commercial and residential properties that are secured by real estate. The underwriting process for these loans includes analysis of the financial position and strength of both the borrower and, if applicable, guarantor, experience with similar projects in the past, market demand and prospects for successful completion of the proposed project within the established budget and schedule, values of underlying collateral, availability of permanent financing, maximum loan-to-value ratios, minimum equity requirements, acceptable amortization periods and minimum debt service coverage requirements, based on property type. The borrower’s financial strength and capacity to repay their obligations remain the primary focus of underwriting. Financial strength is evaluated based upon analytical tools that consider historical and projected cash flows and performance, in addition to analysis of the proposed project for income-producing properties. Additional support offered by guarantors is also considered when applicable. Ultimate repayment of these loans is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity and availability of long-term financing.
The commercial and industrial loan portfolio segment includes commercial loans made to many types of businesses for various purposes, such as short-term working capital loans that are usually secured by accounts receivable and inventory, equipment and fixed asset purchases that are secured by those assets, and term financing for those within Mid Penn’s geographic markets. Mid Penn’s credit underwriting process for commercial and industrial loans includes analysis of historical and projected cash flows and performance, evaluation of financial strength of both borrowers and guarantors as reflected in current and detailed financial information, and evaluation of underlying collateral to support the credit.
The consumer loan portfolio segment is comprised of loans which are underwritten after evaluating a borrower’s capacity, credit and collateral. Several factors are considered when assessing a borrower’s capacity, including the borrower’s employment, income, current debt, assets and level of equity in the property. Credit is assessed using a credit report that provides credit scores and the borrower’s current and past information about their credit history. Loan-to-value and debt-to-income ratios, loan amount and lien position are also considered in assessing whether to originate a loan. These borrowers are particularly susceptible to downturns in economic trends, such as conditions that negatively affect housing prices and demand and levels of unemployment.
Mid Penn utilizes a DCF method to estimate the quantitative portion of the allowance for credit losses for loan pools. The DCF is based off of historical losses, including peer data, which is correlated to national unemployment and GDP.
The PD and LGD measures are used in conjunction with prepayment data as inputs into the DCF model to calculate the cash flows at the individual loan level. Contractual cash flows based on loan terms are adjusted for PD, LGD and prepayments to derive loss cash flows. These loss cash flows are discounted by the loan’s coupon rate to arrive at the
78
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
discounted cash flow based quantitative loss. The prepayment studies are updated quarterly by a third-party for each applicable pool.
Mid Penn determined that reasonable and supportable forecasts could be made for a twelve-month period for all of its loan pools. To the extent the lives of the loans in the LHFI portfolio extend beyond this forecast period, Mid Penn uses a reversion period of four quarters and reverts to the historical mean on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the loans.
Qualitative factors used in the ACL methodology include the following:
• Lending process
• Concentrations of credit
• Peer Group Divergence
The ACL for individual loans, such as non-accrual and PCD, that do not share risk characteristics with other loans is measured as the difference between the discounted value of expected future cash flows, based on the effective interest rate at origination, and the amortized cost basis of the loan, or the net realizable value. The ACL is the difference between the loan’s net realizable value and its amortized cost basis (net of previous charge-offs and deferred loan fees and costs), except for collateral-dependent loans. A loan is collateral dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral. The expected credit loss for collateral-dependent loans is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis of the loan and the fair value of the collateral, adjusted for the estimated cost to sell. Fair value estimates for collateral-dependent loans are derived from appraised values based on the current market value or the "as is" value of the collateral, normally from recently received and reviewed appraisals. Current appraisals are ordered on a regular basis based on the inspection date or more often if market conditions necessitate. Appraisals are obtained from state-certified appraisers and are based on certain assumptions, which may include construction or development status and the highest and best use of the property. These appraisals are reviewed by Mid Penn’s Appraisal Review Department to ensure they are acceptable, and values are adjusted down for costs associated with asset disposal. If the calculated expected credit loss is determined to be permanent or not recoverable, the amount of the expected credit loss is charged off.
Mid Penn may also purchase loans or acquire loans through a business combination. At the purchase or acquisition date, loans are evaluated to determine whether there has been more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. Loans that have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination are referred to as PCD loans. In its evaluation of whether a loan has experienced more than insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination, Mid Penn takes into consideration loan grades, past due and nonaccrual status. Mid Penn may also consider external credit rating agency ratings for borrowers and for non-commercial loans, FICO score or band, probability of default levels, and number of times past due. At the purchase or acquisition date, the amortized cost basis of PCD loans is equal to the purchase price and an initial estimate of credit losses. The initial recognition of expected credit losses on PCD loans has no impact on net income. When the initial measurement of expected credit losses on PCD loans is calculated on a pooled loan basis, the expected credit losses are allocated to each loan within the pool. Any difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the unpaid principal balance of the loan represents a noncredit discount or premium, which is accreted (or amortized) into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent changes to the ACL on PCD loans are recorded through the PCL. For purchased loans that are not deemed to have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination and are therefore not deemed PCD, any discounts or premiums included in the purchase price are accreted (or amortized) over the contractual life of the individual loan.
Loans are charged off against the ACL, with any subsequent recoveries credited back to the ACL account. Expected recoveries may not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged off and expected to be charged off.
Premises and Equipment - Land is carried at cost. Buildings, furniture, fixtures, equipment, land improvements, and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Building assets are depreciated using an estimated useful life of five to fifty years . Furniture, fixtures, and equipment are depreciated using an estimated useful life of three to ten years . Land improvements are depreciated over an estimated useful life of ten to twenty years . Leasehold improvements are depreciated using an estimated useful life that is the lesser of the remaining life of the lease or ten to fifteen years . Maintenance and
79
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
normal repairs are charged to expense when incurred, while major additions and improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses on disposals are reflected in current operations .
The Corporation reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, as prescribed by ASC Topic 360, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets".
Bank Premises and Equipment Held For Sale - Bank premises and equipment designated as held for sale are included in Other Assets on the Balance Sheet, and are carried at the lower of cost or market value, and totaled $ 702 thousand and $ 974 thousand at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The $ 272 thousand decrease in balance at December 31, 2024 related to the sale of the Riverview Halifax building in 2024. As of December 31, 2024, one property remained for sale.
Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale - Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are initially recorded at their fair value less estimated disposition costs. When such assets are acquired, any shortfall between the loan carrying value and the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral less disposition costs is recorded as an adjustment to the allowance for loan losses while any excess is recognized in income. The Corporation periodically performs a valuation of the property held; any excess of carrying value over fair value less disposition costs is charged to earnings as impairment. Routine maintenance and real estate taxes are expensed as incurred.
Bank-Owned Life Insurance ("BOLI") - Mid Penn is the owner and beneficiary of BOLI policies on current and former Mid Penn directors, as well as BOLI policies acquired through the Phoenix, First Priority, Riverview and Brunswick acquisitions covering certain former Miners Bank, First Priority, Riverview, and Brunswick employees. These policies are recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement, if applicable. Increases in the cash surrender value of these policies are included in noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Corporation's BOLI policies are invested in general account and hybrid account products that have been underwritten by highly-rated third party insurance carriers.
Mid Penn is also party to certain Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements, and in accordance with GAAP, has accrued a liability related to the postretirement benefits covered by an endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangement, and a liability for the future death benefit.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the underlying fair value of merged entities. We assess goodwill for impairment annually as of October 31 of each year. The Corporation has one reporting unit, community banking, which includes the Bank, the Corporation’s wholly-owned banking subsidiary. If certain events occur which indicate goodwill might be impaired between annual tests, goodwill must be tested when such events occur. In making this assessment, we use the widely accepted valuation techniques, including the public company market change of control approach and the peer group change of control approach, to determine the fair valuation of the reporting unit. Both approaches include earnings and price-to-tangible book value multiples of comparable public companies, which are applied to the earnings and equity of the reporting unit. The projected tangible book value ("TBV") multiple serves as an indicator of whether the market price or perceived value of the Company's tangible assets exceeds its book value. In 2024, the company applied a control premium based on its review of observable transactions and comparable marketplace data. Several factors are considered, such as operating results, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, current market data, etc. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and our judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment. Changes in economic and operating conditions could result in goodwill impairment in future periods. The Bank did not identify any impairment on its outstanding goodwill from its most recent testing, which was performed as of October 31, 2024.
Core deposit intangible ("CDI") is a measure of the value of checking and savings deposits acquired in business combinations. The fair value of the CDI stemming from any given business combination is based on the present value of the expected cost savings attributable to the core deposit funding relative to an alternative source of funding. CDI is amortized over the estimated useful lives of the existing deposit relationships acquired, but does not exceed ten years . Significantly all CDI is amortized using the sum of the years digits method.
Customer list intangibles are a measure of the inherent value of certain customer arrangements acquired in business combinations. The fair value of the customer list is based on the income approach which employs a present value analysis,
80
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
which calculates the expected after-tax cash flow benefits of the net revenues generated by the acquired customers over the expected life of the acquired customers, discounted at a long-term market-oriented after-tax rate of return on investment. The value assigned to the acquired customers represents the future economic benefit from acquiring the customers (net of operating expenses). The customer list is amortized over a 10 to 20-year projection period, a sufficient time to capture the economic value of the customer list given an assumed customer attrition rate.
The Corporation evaluates such identifiable intangibles for impairment when events and circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. If an impairment loss is determined to exist, the loss is reflected as an impairment charge in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the period in which such impairment is identified. No impairment charges were required for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, or 2022.
Leases - Mid Penn leases certain premises and equipment and recognizes a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and a related lease liability for each distinct lease agreement. The lease ROU asset consists of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, adjusted for any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date, minus any lease incentives received, and any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee (defined as costs of a lease that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed). The related lease liability is equal to the present value of the future lease payments, discounted using the rate implicit in the lease (or if that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate). Given that the rate implicit in the lease is rarely available, all lease liability amounts are calculated using Mid Penn’s incremental borrowing rate at lease inception, on a collateralized basis, for a similar term. For operating leases existing prior to January 1, 2019, the rate for the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019 was used.
Operating and finance lease ROU assets, as well as operating lease liabilities, are presented as separate line items on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, while finance lease liabilities are classified as a component of long-term debt .
Operating lease expense, recognized as a component of occupancy expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income, consists of a single lease cost calculated so that the remaining cost of the lease is allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis. Operating lease expense also includes variable lease payments not included in the lease liability, and any impairment of the ROU asset. Finance lease expense consists of the amortization of the ROU asset, recognized as a component of occupancy expense and interest expense on the lease liability, which is recorded as a component of other interest expense, both on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
In assessing whether a contract contains a lease, Mid Penn reviews third-party agreements to determine if the contract conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration, and grants Mid Penn the right to both obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the identified asset’s use and the direct the use of the identified asset throughout the term of the agreement.
Upon identification that a lease agreement exists, Mid Penn performs an assessment of the consideration to be paid related to the identified asset and quantifies both the lease components, consisting of consideration paid to transfer a good or service to Mid Penn and non-lease components, consisting of consideration paid for distinct elements of the contract that are not related to securing the use of the leased asset, such as property taxes, common area maintenance, utilities, and insurance.
Many of Mid Penn’s lease agreements include options to extend or renew contracts subsequent to the expiration of the initial lease term. Additionally, for leases that contain escalation clauses related to consumer or other price indices, Mid Penn includes the known lease payment amount as of the commencement date in the calculation of ROU assets and related lease liabilities. Subsequent increases in rental payments over the known amount at the commencement date due to increase in the indices will be expensed as incurred.
None of Mid Penn’s lease agreements include residual value guarantees or material variable lease payments. Mid Penn does not have material restrictions or covenants imposed by leases that would impact Mid Penn’s ability to pay dividends or cause Mid Penn to incur additional financial obligations.
Comprehensive Income - Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes changes in unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale arising during the period and reclassification adjustments for realized gains and losses on securities available for sale included in net income. Mid Penn has an unfunded noncontributory defined benefit plan for directors and other postretirement benefit plans covering full-time employees. These plans utilize assumptions and methods to calculate the fair value of plan assets
81
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
and recognizing the overfunded and underfunded status of the plans on its Consolidated Balance Sheet. Gains and losses, prior service costs and credits are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, until they are amortized, or immediately upon curtailment.
Trust Assets and Income - Assets held by the Bank in a fiduciary or agency capacity for customers of the trust department of the Bank are not included in the Consolidated Financial Statements since such items are not assets of the Bank. Assets under management totaled $ 473.5 million as of December 31, 2024, Most trust income is recognized as earned, which is not materially different than if it were reported on the accrual basis.
Revenue Recognition - Mid Penn recognizes revenue when earned based upon contractual terms, as transactions occur, or as related services are provided, and collectability is reasonably assured. The largest source of revenue for Mid Penn is interest income. Noninterest income is earned from various banking and financial services that Mid Penn offers through its subsidiaries. In certain circumstances, noninterest income is reported net of associated expenses. Following is further detail on the various types of noninterest income Mid Penn earns and when it recognized:
Interest Income - primarily recognized on an accrual basis according to loan agreements, investment securities contracts or other such written contracts.
Income from Fiduciary and Wealth Management Activities - consists of trust, wealth management, and investment management fee income, brokerage transaction fee income, and estate fee income. Trust, wealth management, and investment management fee income consists of advisory fees that are typically based on market values of clients’ managed portfolios and transaction fees for fiduciary services performed, both of which are recognized as earned. Brokerage transaction fee income includes advisory fees, which are recognized as earned on a monthly basis and transaction fees that are recognized when transactions occur. Payment is typically received in the following month. Estate fee income is recognized as services are performed over the service period, generally eighteen months.
ATM Debit Card Interchange Income - consists of interchange fees earned when Mid Penn’s debit cards are processed through card payments networks. The interchange fee is calculated as a percentage of the total electronic funds transfer ("EFT") transaction plus a per-transaction fee, which varies based on the type of card used, the method used to process the EFT transaction, and the type of business at which the transaction was processed. Revenue is recognized daily as transactions occur and interchange fees are subsequently processed. Payment for interchange activity is received primarily daily, while some fees are aggregated and payment is received in the following month.
Service Charges on Deposits - consist of cash management, overdraft, non-sufficient fund fees and other service charges on deposit accounts. Revenue is primarily transactional and recognized when earned, which is at the time the respective initiating transaction occurs, and the related service charge is subsequently processed. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to the customers’ accounts.
Mortgage Banking Income - consists of gains or losses on the sale of residential mortgage loans and is recognized when the sale is completed.
Mortgage Hedging Income - relates to the changes in fair value of interest rate locks, forward mortgage loan sales commitments and hedging instruments on forward sales commitments.
Other Income - includes credit card royalties, check orders, letter of credit fees and merchant services income. These fees are primarily transactional, and revenue is recognized when transactions occur, and the related services are subsequently processed. Payment is primarily received immediately or in the following month.
Mid Penn does not exercise significant judgements in the recognition of income, as typically income is not recognized until the performance obligation has been satisfied.
82
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Income Taxes - Income tax expense is determined using the asset and liability method and consists of income taxes that are currently payable and deferred income taxes. Deferred income tax expense (benefit) is determined by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income in years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Changes in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
A valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets when management determines that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. In making such determinations, the Corporation considers all available positive and negative evidence that may impact the realization of deferred tax assets. These considerations include future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, and available tax planning strategies.
The Corporation files a consolidated federal income tax return including the results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Corporation estimates income taxes payable based on the amount it expects to owe the various tax authorities (i.e., federal and state). Income taxes represent the net estimated amount due to, or to be received from, such tax authorities. In estimating income taxes, management assesses the relative merits and risks of the appropriate tax treatment of transactions, taking into account statutory, judicial, and regulatory guidance in the context of the Corporation’s tax position. Although the Corporation uses the best available information to record income taxes, underlying estimates and assumptions can change over time as a result of unanticipated events or circumstances such as changes in tax laws and judicial guidance influencing its overall tax position.
An uncertain tax position is recognized only if it is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation process, based on the technical merits of the position. The amount of tax benefit recognized in the financial statements is the largest amount of benefit that is more than fifty percent likely to be sustained upon ultimate settlement of the uncertain tax position. If the initial assessment fails to result in recognition of a tax benefit, the Corporation subsequently recognizes a tax benefit if there are changes in tax law or case law that raise the likelihood of prevailing on the technical merits of the position to more-likely-than-not, the statute of limitations expires, or there is a completion of an examination resulting in a settlement of that tax year or position with the appropriate agency. The Corporation’s policy is to classify interest and penalties associated with income taxes within other expenses.
The Corporation is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits in progress for any tax periods. Management believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2021.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements - The Corporation enters into contractual loan commitments to extend credit, normally with fixed expiration dates or termination clauses, at specified rates and for specific purposes. Since a portion of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Substantially all of the commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards until the time of loan funding. The Corporation decreases its exposure to loss under these commitments by subjecting them to credit approval and monitoring procedures.
Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by the Corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Corporation would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Corporation could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. If the commitment is funded, the Corporation would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. The Corporation’s policies generally require that standby letter of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants similar to those contained in loan agreements.
Earnings per Common Share - The Corporation presents basic and diluted earnings per common share ("EPS") data for its common stock. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to shareholders of the Corporation by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by
83
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
adjusting the profit or loss attributable to shareholders and the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares comprised of restricted stock awards.
Treasury Stock - Common stock held in treasury is accounted for using the cost method, which treats stock held in treasury as a reduction to total stockholders’ equity. The shares may be purchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions from time to time depending upon the market conditions and other factors over a one-year period or such longer period of time as may be necessary to complete such repurchases.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Loan-level Interest Rate Swaps
The Corporation offers certain derivative products directly to qualified commercial lending clients seeking to manage their interest rate risk. The Corporation economically hedges interest rate swap transactions to execute with commercial lending clients by entering into offsetting interest rate swap transactions with institutional derivatives market participants. Derivative transactions executed as part of this program are not designed as qualifying hedging relationships and are, therefore, carried at fair value with the change in fair value recorded as noninterest income. Because these derivatives have mirror-image contractual terms, in additional to collateral provisions which mitigate the impact of non-performance risk, the changes in fair value are expected to substantially offset.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
Mid Penn’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to reduce volatility in net interest income and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, Mid Penn primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Beginning in the first quarter of 2023, Mid Penn entered into interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges to hedge the cash flows associated with existing brokered CDs.
For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the unrealized gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCI and subsequently reclassified into interest income in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest income as interest payments are made on Mid Penn’s variable-rate liabilities.
Mortgage Banking Derivative Financial Instruments
In connection with its mortgage banking activities, Mid Penn entered into commitments to originate certain fixed-rate residential mortgage loans for customers, also referred to as interest rate locks. In addition, Mid Penn entered into forward commitments for the future sales or purchases of mortgage-backed securities to or from third-party counterparties to hedge the effect of changes in interest rates on the values of both the interest rate locks and mortgage loans held for sale. Forward sales commitments may have also be in the form of commitments to sell individual mortgage loans at a fixed price at a future date. The amount necessary to settle each interest rate lock was based on the price that secondary market investors would pay for loans with similar characteristics, including interest rate and term, as of the date fair value is measured.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Adopted
On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses , which replaces the incurred loss methodology, and is referred to as CECL. The measurement of expected credit losses under CECL applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans and HTM debt securities. It also applies to OBS credit exposures (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with ASC Topic 842.
The Corporation adopted CECL using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, net of investments in leases and OBS credit exposures. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2023 are presented under CECL, while prior period results are reported in accordance with the previously applicable incurred
84
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
loss methodology. The Corporation recorded an overall increase of $ 15.0 million to the ACL on January 1, 2023 as a result of the adoption of CECL. Retained earnings decreased $ 11.5 million and deferred tax assets increased by $ 3.1 million. Included in the $ 15.0 million increase to the ACL was $ 3.1 million for certain OBS credit exposures that were previously recognized in other liabilities before the adoption of CECL.
On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, which eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Additionally, ASU 2022-02 requires entities to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measured at Amortized Cost. See "Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans" for the new financial statement disclosures applicable under this update.

Note 2 - Business Combinations
Commonwealth Benefits Group Acquisition
On July 31, 2024, Mid Penn acquired the insurance business and related accounts of a full-service employee benefits firm that serves mid to large employers across central and eastern Pennsylvania, northern Maryland, and northern Virginia, for a purchase price of $ 2.0 million at closing and an additional $ 800 thousand potentially payable pursuant to a three year earnout.
Mid Penn has recognized total goodwill of $ 1.1 million, which is calculated as the excess of both the consideration exchanged and liabilities assumed compared to the fair market value of identifiable assets acquired.
Mid Penn incurred expenses related to the Commonwealth Benefits Group acquisition of $ 545 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2024, which is included in noninterest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Brunswick Acquisition
On May 19, 2023, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of Brunswick through the merger of Brunswick with and into Mid Penn with Mid Penn being the surviving corporation. In connection with this acquisition, Brunswick Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brunswick, merged with and into Mid Penn Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Penn.
This transaction included the acquisition of 5 branches and extended Mid Penn’s footprint into Middlesex and Monmouth counties in central New Jersey. Mid Penn issued 849,510 shares of its common stock as well as a net cash payment to Brunswick shareholders of $ 27.6 million, for total consideration of $ 45.7 million for all outstanding stock and the cancellation of stock options of Brunswick.
Mid Penn has recognized total goodwill of $ 12.8 million, which is calculated as the excess of both the consideration exchanged and liabilities assumed compared to the fair market value of identifiable assets acquired. The fair value of the consideration exchanged related to Mid Penn’s common stock was calculated based upon the closing market price of Mid Penn’s common stock as of May 19, 2023. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Purchased loans and leases that reflect a more-than-insignificant deterioration of credit from origination are considered PCD. Mid Penn considers various factors in connection with the identification of more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit, including but not limited to nonperforming status, delinquency, risk ratings, FICO scores and other qualitative factors that indicate deterioration in credit quality since origination. For PCD loans and leases, the initial estimate of expected credit losses is recognized in the ACL on the date of acquisition using the same methodology as other loans and leases held-for-investment. As part of the Brunswick Acquisition, Mid Penn acquired PCD loans and leases of $ 18.7 million. Mid Penn established an ACL at acquisition of $ 336 thousand with a corresponding gross-up to the amortized cost of the PCD loans and leases. The non-credit discount on the PCD loans and leases was $ 2.4 million and the Day 1 fair value was $ 16.3 million. The initial provision expense for non-PCD loans associated with the Brunswick Acquisition was $ 2.0 million.

Note 3 - Investment Securities
AFS Securities
At December 31, 2024, the fair value of AFS securities totaled $ 260.5 million. At December 31, 2024, no securities were identified that violated credit loss triggers; therefore, no DCF analysis was performed, and no credit loss was recognized on any of the securities available for sale.
Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses for AFS securities. At December 31, 2024, accrued interest receivable totaled $ 1.2 million for AFS securities, and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.
HTM Securities
At December 31, 2024, Mid Penn’s HTM securities totaled $ 382.4 million. The Company primarily held highly rated HTM securities, including taxable and tax-exempt securities issued mainly by the U.S government, state governments, and political subdivisions. As of December 31, 2024, the majority of Mid Penn's HTM securities were rated as A1/BBB by Moody's and/or Standard & Poor's ratings services. Credit ratings of HTM securities, which are a key factor in estimating expected credit losses, are reviewed on a quarterly basis.
At December 31, 2024, there were no HTM securities that were past due 30 days or more as to principal or interest payments. Additionally, Mid Penn had no HTM securities classified as nonaccrual at December 31, 2024. Therefore, no allowance for credit losses was recorded as of December 31, 2024.
Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses for HTM securities. At December 31, 2024, accrued interest receivable totaled $ 1.8 million for HTM securities and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the majority of the unrealized losses on securities in an unrealized loss position were attributable to U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agencies, and mortgage-backed U.S. government agencies.
Mid Penn had no securities considered by management to be credit related losses as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and did not record any securities losses in the respective periods ended on these dates. Mid Penn does not consider the securities with unrealized losses on the respective dates to be credit related losses as the unrealized losses were deemed to be temporary changes in value related to market movements in interest yields at various periods similar to the maturity dates of holdings in the investment portfolio, and not reflective of an erosion of credit quality.
There were no gross realized gains and losses on the sale of AFS securities as of December 31, 2024.

Credit Quality Indicators
Mid Penn categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors. On a minimum of a quarterly basis, Mid Penn analyzes loans individually to classify the loans as to their credit risk. The following table presents risk ratings by loan portfolio segment and origination year, which is the year of origination or renewal.
PASS - This type of classification consists of 6 subcategories:
Nominal Risk / Pass - This loan classification is a credit extension of the highest quality.
Moderate Risk / Pass - This type of classification has strong financial ratios, substantial debt capacity, and low leverage with a very favorable comparison to industry peers or better than average improving trends.
Good Acceptable Risk / Pass - This type of classification is a reasonable credit risk having financial ratios on par with its peers and demonstrates slightly improving trends over time; the Borrower lists good quality assets with relatively low leverage and ample debt capacity.
95
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
Average Acceptable Risk / Pass - This type of classification has financial ratios and assets that are of above average quality; however, the leverage is worse than average compared to industry standards; the Borrower should have a good repayment history and possess consistent earnings with some growth.
Marginally Acceptable Risk / Pass - This type of classification has financial ratios consistent with industry averages, assets of average quality with ascertainable values, acceptable leverage, moderate capital assets and an acceptable reliance on trade debt; however, the Borrower demonstrates marginally adequate earnings, cash flow and debt service plus positive trends.
Weak/Monitor Risk (Watch list) / Pass - This type of classification has financial ratios that are slightly below standard industry averages and assets are below average quality with unstable values; fixed assets could be near or at the end of their useful life and liabilities may not match the asset structure.
SPECIAL MENTION - These credits have developing weaknesses deserving extra attention from the lender and lending management. They are currently protected, but potentially weak. The weakness may be, cash flow, leverage, liquidity, management, industry or other factors which may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Bank’s credit position at some future date.
SUBSTANDARD - These credit extensions also have well defined weaknesses, which are inadequately protected by the current worth and debt service capacity of the Borrowers or the collateral pledged, if any. The repayment of principal and interest as originally intended can be jeopardized by defined weaknesses related to adverse financial, managerial, economic, market or political conditions.
DOUBTFUL - These credits have definite weaknesses inherent in Substandard loans with added characteristics that are severe enough to make further collection in full highly questionable and improbable based on the current trends.
LOSS . These loans are considered uncollectible and no longer a viable asset of the Bank. They lack an identifiable source of repayment based on an inability to generate sufficient cash flow to service their debt. All trends are negative and the damage to the financial condition of the Borrower can’t be reversed now or in the near future.
The following table presents risk ratings by loan portfolio segment and origination year, which is the year of origination or renewal.

Mid Penn had no loans classified as "Doubtful" as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. There was $ 861 thousand and $ 121 thousand in loans for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Collateral-Dependent Loans
A financial asset is considered to be collateral-dependent when the debtor is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the sale or operation of the collateral. For all classes of financial assets deemed collateral-dependent, Mid Penn elected the practical expedient to estimate expected credit losses based on the collateral’s fair value less cost to sell. In most cases, Mid Penn records a partial charge-off to reduce the loan’s carrying value to the collateral’s fair value less cost to sell. Substantially all of the collateral supporting collateral-dependent financial assets consists of various types of real estate, including residential properties; commercial properties such as retail centers, office buildings, and lodging; agriculture land; and vacant land. Total collateral-dependent loans as of December 31, 2024 were $ 22.6 million.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Mid Penn’s ACL - loans methodology follows guidance within FASB ASC Subtopic 326-20. The ACL - loans is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Credit quality within the loan portfolio is continuously monitored by management and is reflected within the ACL - loans. The ACL - loans is an estimate of expected losses inherent within Mid Penn’s existing loan portfolio. The ACL - loans is adjusted through the PCL and reduced by the charge off of loan amounts, net of recoveries.
The loan loss estimation process involves procedures to appropriately consider the unique characteristics of Mid Penn’s loan portfolio segments. When computing allowance levels, credit loss assumptions are estimated using a model that categorizes loan pools based on loss history and other credit trends and risk characteristics, including current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future. Evaluations of the portfolio and individual credits are inherently subjective, as they require estimates, assumptions and judgments as to the facts and circumstances of particular situations. Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgement by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall loan portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the ACL and credit loss expense.
Mid Penn estimates the ACL using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Mid Penn uses a third-party software application to calculate the quantitative portion of the ACL using a methodology and assumptions specific to each loan pool. The qualitative portion of the allowance is based on general economic conditions and other internal and external factors affecting Mid Penn as a whole, as well as specific loans. Factors considered include the following: lending process, concentrations of credit, and peer group divergence. The quantitative and qualitative portions of the allowance are added
101
MID PENN BANCORP, INC.
together to determine the total ACL, which reflects management’s expectations of future conditions based on reasonable and supportable forecasts.
The methodology for estimating the amount of expected credit losses reported in the ACL has two basic components: a collective, or pooled, component for estimated expected credit losses for pools of loans that share similar risk characteristics, and an asset-specific component involving individual loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans and the measurement of expected credit losses for such individual loans. In estimating the ACL for the collective component, loans are segregated into loan pools based on loan purpose codes and similar risk characteristics.
The commercial real estate and residential mortgage loan portfolio segments include loans for both commercial and residential properties that are secured by real estate. The underwriting process for these loans includes analysis of the financial position and strength of both the borrower and, if applicable, guarantor, experience with similar projects in the past, market demand and prospects for successful completion of the proposed project within the established budget and schedule, values of underlying collateral, availability of permanent financing, maximum loan-to-value ratios, minimum equity requirements, acceptable amortization periods and minimum debt service coverage requirements, based on property type. The borrower’s financial strength and capacity to repay their obligations remain the primary focus of underwriting. Financial strength is evaluated based upon analytical tools that consider historical and projected cash flows and performance, in addition to analysis of the proposed project for income-producing properties. Additional support offered by guarantors is also considered when applicable. Ultimate repayment of these loans is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity and availability of long-term financing.
The commercial and industrial loan portfolio segment includes commercial loans made to many types of businesses for various purposes, such as short-term working capital loans that are usually secured by accounts receivable and inventory, equipment and fixed asset purchases that are secured by those assets, and term financing for those within Mid Penn’s geographic markets. Mid Penn’s credit underwriting process for commercial and industrial loans includes analysis of historical and projected cash flows and performance, evaluation of financial strength of both borrowers and guarantors as reflected in current and detailed financial information, and evaluation of underlying collateral to support the credit.
The consumer loan portfolio segment is comprised of loans which are underwritten after evaluating a borrower’s capacity, credit and collateral. Several factors are considered when assessing a borrower’s capacity, including the borrower’s employment, income, current debt, assets and level of equity in the property. Credit is assessed using a credit report that provides credit scores and the borrower’s current and past information about their credit history. Loan-to-value and debt-to-income ratios, loan amount and lien position are also considered in assessing whether to originate a loan. These borrowers are particularly susceptible to downturns in economic trends, such as conditions that negatively affect housing prices and demand and levels of unemployment.
Mid Penn utilizes a DCF method to estimate the quantitative portion of the allowance for credit losses for loan pools. The DCF is based off of historical losses, including peer data, which is correlated to national unemployment and GDP.
The PD and LGD measures are used in conjunction with prepayment data as inputs into the DCF model to calculate the cash flows at the individual loan level. Contractual cash flows based on loan terms are adjusted for PD, LGD and prepayments to derive loss cash flows. These loss cash flows are discounted by the loan’s coupon rate to arrive at the discounted cash flow based quantitative loss. The prepayment studies are updated quarterly by a third-party for each applicable pool.
Mid Penn determined that reasonable and supportable forecasts could be made for a twelve-month period for all of its loan pools. To the extent the lives of the loans in the Loans held for investment (LHFI) portfolio extend beyond this forecast period, Mid Penn uses a reversion period of four quarters and reverts to the historical mean on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the loans.
Qualitative factors used in the ACL methodology include the following:
• Lending process
• Concentrations of credit
• Peer Group Divergence
The ACL for individual loans, such as non-accrual and PCD, that do not share risk characteristics with other loans is measured as the difference between the discounted value of expected future cash flows, based on the effective interest rate
102

at origination, and the amortized cost basis of the loan, or the net realizable value. The ACL is the difference between the loan’s net realizable value and its amortized cost basis (net of previous charge-offs and deferred loan fees and costs), except for collateral-dependent loans. A loan is collateral dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral. The expected credit loss for collateral-dependent loans is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis of the loan and the fair value of the collateral, adjusted for the estimated cost to sell. Fair value estimates for collateral-dependent loans are derived from appraised values based on the current market value or the "as is" value of the collateral, normally from recently received and reviewed appraisals. Current appraisals are ordered on a regular basis based on the inspection date or more often if market conditions necessitate. Appraisals are obtained from state-certified appraisers and are based on certain assumptions, which may include construction or development status and the highest and best use of the property. These appraisals are reviewed by Mid Penn’s Appraisal Review Department to ensure they are acceptable, and values are adjusted down for costs associated with asset disposal. If the calculated expected credit loss is determined to be permanent or not recoverable, the amount of the expected credit loss is charged off.
Mid Penn may also purchase loans or acquire loans through a business combination. At the purchase or acquisition date, loans are evaluated to determine whether there has been more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. Loans that have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination are referred to as PCD loans. In its evaluation of whether a loan has experienced more than insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination, Mid Penn takes into consideration loan grades, past due and nonaccrual status. Mid Penn may also consider external credit rating agency ratings for borrowers and for non-commercial loans, FICO score or band, probability of default levels, and number of times past due. At the purchase or acquisition date, the amortized cost basis of PCD loans is equal to the purchase price and an initial estimate of credit losses. The initial recognition of expected credit losses on PCD loans has no impact on net income. When the initial measurement of expected credit losses on PCD loans is calculated on a pooled loan basis, the expected credit losses are allocated to each loan within the pool. Any difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the unpaid principal balance of the loan represents a noncredit discount or premium, which is accreted (or amortized) into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent changes to the ACL on PCD loans are recorded through the PCL. For purchased loans that are not deemed to have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination and are therefore not deemed PCD, any discounts or premiums included in the purchase price are accreted (or amortized) over the contractual life of the individual loan.
Loans are charged off against the ACL, with any subsequent recoveries credited back to the ACL account. Expected recoveries may not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged off and expected to be charged off.

Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
From time to time, we may modify certain loans to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. In some cases, these modifications may result in new loans. Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may be in the form of principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or a term extension, or a combination thereof, among other things.
Information related to loans modified (by type of modification), whereby the borrower was experiencing financial difficulty at the time of modification as of December 31, 2024, is set forth in the following table:
