Overview

On January 31, 2025, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Heartland Financial, USA, Inc. (HTLF). The acquisition added assets with a fair value of approximately $16.1 billion, $9.7 billion of loans, net of the allowance for credit losses, and $14.3 billion of deposits. The combined company retains its #1 deposit market share in Missouri and now ranks in the top 10 in Colorado, New Mexico, Kansas, and Arizona.

The Company focuses on the following four core financial objectives. Management believes these objectives will guide its efforts to achieve its vision, to deliver the Unparalleled Customer Experience, all while seeking to improve net income and strengthen the balance sheet while undertaking prudent risk management.

The first financial objective is to continuously improve operating efficiencies. The Company has focused on identifying efficiencies that simplify our organizational and reporting structures, streamline back-office functions, and take advantage of synergies and newer technologies among various platforms and distribution networks. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company successfully completed the conversion of the technology and branding of HTLF customers. The Company has identified and expects to continue identifying ongoing efficiencies through the normal course of business that, when combined with increased revenue, will contribute to improved operating leverage. During the first quarter of 2026, total revenue increased $175.3 million, or 31.1%, as compared to the first quarter of 2025, while noninterest expense decreased $3.9 million, or 1.0%, for the same period. Included in noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2025 is $53.2 million in acquisition-related expense compared to $4.4 million in the first quarter of 2026 . Revenue is also impacted by one additional month of revenue from HTLF in 2026, including accretion and amortization of the fair value adjustments discussed in Note 13, “Acquisition” above. As part of the initiative to improve operating efficiencies, the Company continues to invest in technological advances that it believes will help management drive operating leverage in the future through improved data analysis and automation. The Company also continues to evaluate core systems and will invest in enhancements that it believes will yield operating efficiencies.

The second financial objective is to increase net interest income through profitable loan and deposit growth and the optimization of the balance sheet. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company had an increase in net interest income of $136.7 million, or 34.4%, from the same period in 2025. The change in net interest income was primarily driven by an additional month of HTLF operations, higher purchase accounting accretion benefits, favorable repricing of deposits and loans in conjunction with lower short-term interest rates, and increases of $7.1 billion, or 21.9%, in average loans and $4.2 billion, or 26.2% in average securities. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $2.6 billion, or 38.4% in average interest-bearing due from banks. The funding for these assets was driven primarily by an increase of 14.5% in average deposits compared to the first quarter of 2025, reflecting strong organic growth as well as the impact of acquired HTLF balances. Average interest-bearing deposits increased 15.2%, and noninterest-bearing demand deposit balances increased 12.5% compared to the first quarter of 2025. Net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased 42 basis points compared to the same period in 2025, driven by favorable repricing of deposits and loans in conjunction with lower short-term interest rates. Net interest spread increased 55 basis points during the same period. The Company expects to see continued volatility in the economic markets resulting from governmental responses to inflation and recessionary signs in the economy, as well as uncertainty about the impacts of the conflict in Iran and tariffs. These changing conditions could have impacts o

Results of Operations

Overview

On January 31, 2025, UMBF completed its previously announced acquisition of Heartland Financial, USA, Inc. (HTLF). The acquisition added assets with a fair value of approximately $16.1 billion, $9.7 billion of loans, net of the allowance for credit losses, and $14.3 billion of deposits. The combined company retains its #1 deposit market share in Missouri and now ranks in the top 10 in Colorado, New Mexico, Kansas, and Arizona. The impacts of the acquisition are significant drivers in the results for 2025.

The Company focuses on the following four core financial objectives. Management believes these objectives will guide its efforts to achieve its vision, to deliver the Unparalleled Customer Experience, all while seeking to improve net income and strengthen the balance sheet while undertaking prudent risk management.

The first financial objective is to continuously improve operating efficiencies. The Company has focused on identifying efficiencies that simplify its organizational and reporting structures, streamline back-office functions and take advantage of synergies and newer technologies among various platforms and distribution networks. During the fourth quarter, the Company successfully completed the conversion of the technology and branding of HTLF customers. The Company has identified and expects to continue identifying ongoing efficiencies through the normal course of business that, when combined with increased revenue, will contribute to improved operating leverage. For 2025, total revenue increased 62.8%, and noninterest expense increased 58.1%, as compared to the previous year. Included in noninterest expense for 2025 is $142.0 million in acquisition-related expense. Revenue is also impacted by accretion and amortization of the fair value adjustments discussed in Note 20, “Acquisition” below. The Company continues to invest in technological advances that it believes will help management drive operating leverage in the future through improved data analysis and automation. The Company also continues to evaluate core systems and will invest in enhancements that it believes will yield operating efficiencies.

The second financial objective is to increase net interest income through profitable loan and deposit growth and the optimization of the balance sheet. For 2025, net interest income increased $861.3 million, or 86.1%, as compared to the previous year. The Company has shown increased net interest income primarily driven by rate and mix changes related to the HTLF acquisition. Average earning assets increased $20.1 billion, or 49.2%, compared to 2024. Average loan balances increased $11.9 billion, coupled with an increase in average interest-bearing due from banks of $2.6 billion from the prior year. The funding for these assets was driven primarily by a 62.5% increase in average interest-bearing deposits and a 40.0% increase in noninterest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a 59.8% decrease in average borrowed funds. Net interest margin, on a fully tax-equivalent (FTE) basis, increased 59 basis points compared to the same period in 2024 in large part due to repricing and mix changes of loan balances and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest spread increased by 84 basis points during the same period. The Company expects to see continued volatility in the economic markets resulting from governmental responses to inflation and recessionary signs in the economy, as well as uncertainty about the impacts of tariffs and related trade disputes. These changing conditions could have impacts on the balance sheet and income statement of the Company for 2026.

The third financial objective is to grow the Company’s revenue from noninterest sources. The Company seeks to grow noninterest revenues throughout all economic and interest rate cycles, while positioning itself to benefit in periods of economic growth. Noninterest income increased $161.9 million, or 25.8%, to $790.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The change is driven by increased HTLF-related fee income from trust income, deposit service charges, and bankcard fees. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Noninterest income. For the year ended December 31, 2025, noninterest income represented 29.8% of total revenues, as compared to 38.6% for 2024. The recent economic changes have impacted fee income, especially those with assets tied to market values and interest rates.

The fourth financial objective is effective capital management. The Company places a significant emphasis on maintaining a strong capital position, which management believes promotes investor confidence, provides access to funding sources under favorable terms, and enhances the Company’s ability to capitalize on business growth and acquisition opportunities. The Company continues to maximize shareholder value through a mix of reinvesting in organic growth, evaluating acquisition opportunities that complement the Company’s strategies, increasing dividends over time, and appropriately utilizing a share repurchase program. At December 31, 2025, the Company had a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.36% and $7.7 billion in total shareholders’ equity, an increase of $4.2 billion, or 121.9%, compared to total shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2024. The Company did not repurchase

38

shares of common stock during 2025 except for shares acquired pursuant to the Company's share-based incentive programs. In 2025, the Company declared $123.4 million in common dividends, which represents a 60.0% increase compared to dividends declared during 2024. In 2025, the Company declared $17.8 million in preferred dividends. The second quarter of 2025 includes the issuance of 12.0 million depositary shares, each representing a 1/400th interest in a share of the Company’s 7.75% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (the Series B Preferred Stock). During the third quarter of 2025, the Company completed the redemption of all of its outstanding 7.00% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A at the redemption price of $10,000 per share.

Earnings Summary

The Company recorded net income available to common shareholders of $684.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. This represents a 55.2% increase over 2024. Net income available to common shareholders for 2024 was $441.2 million, or an increase of 26.1% compared to 2023. Basic earnings per common share for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $9.35 per share compared to $9.05 per common share in 2024, an increase of 3.3%. Basic earnings per common share were $7.22 per share in 2023, or an increase of 25.3% from 2023 to 2024. Fully diluted earnings per common share increased 3.3% from 2024 to 2025 and increased 25.2% from 2023 to 2024. Return on average assets and return on average common shareholder’s equity for the year ended December 31, 2025 were 1.03% and 10.24%, respectively, compared to 1.02% and 13.24%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024. Return on average assets and return on average common shareholder’s equity for the year ended December 31, 2023 were 0.88% and 12.23%, respectively.

The Company’s net interest income increased to $1.9 billion in 2025 compared to $1.0 billion in 2024 and $920.1 million in 2023. In total, net interest income increased $861.3 million, as compared to 2024, primarily driven by the HTLF acquisition, with a favorable volume variance of $611.3 million, a $250.0 million rate variance, and purchase accounting accretion income. See Table 2. The favorable volume variance on earning assets was predominantly driven by an increase of $20.1 billion, or 49.2%, in average earning assets. In 2025, average loan balances increased $11.9 billion, coupled with an increase in average interest-bearing due from banks of $2.6 billion as compared to 2024. Net interest margin, on an FTE basis, increased to 3.10% for 2025, compared to 2.51% for the same period in 2024, driven by repricing and mix changes from the HTLF acquisition, changes in short-term interest rates, and purchase accounting accretion income. Net interest spread increased by 84 basis points during the same period. The Company has seen a decrease in the benefit from interest-free funds as compared to 2024 driven by the changes in short-term interest rates. The impact of this benefit decreased 25 basis points compared to 2024 and is illustrated on Table 3. The magnitude and duration of this impact will be largely dependent upon the FRB’s policy decisions and market movements. See Table 21 in Item 7A for an illustration of the impact of an interest rate increase or decrease on net interest income as of December 31, 2025.

The provision for credit losses totaled $154.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is an increase of $93.5 million, or 153.1%, compared to the same period in 2024. Provision expense in 2025 included $62.0 million to establish an allowance for credit losses on the acquired loans designated as non-PCD loans at the close of the transaction. See Note 20, “Acquisition” below. The remainder of the increase in provision was driven by loan growth, portfolio credit metric changes, and changes in macro-economic metrics in the current period as compared to the prior periods. See further discussion in “Provision and Allowance for Credit Losses” in this report.

The Company had an increase of $161.9 million, or 25.8%, in noninterest income in 2025, as compared to 2024, and an increase of $86.3 million, or 15.9%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 is primarily driven by increased trust and securities processing of $52.8 million, increased service charges on deposits of $28.7 million, increased bankcard fees of $26.1 million, and increased investment securities gains, net of $20.2 million. The increase in 2024 is primarily driven by increased trust and securities processing of $33.4 million, increased other income of $14.1 million, increased investment securities gains, net of $13.9 million, and increased bankcard fees of $13.1 million. The change in noninterest income in 2025 from 2024, and 2024 from 2023 is illustrated in Table 6.

Noninterest expense increased in 2025 by $596.1 million, or 58.1%, compared to 2024 and increased by $27.5 million, or 2.8%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 is primarily driven by increases in salaries and employee benefit expense of $290.0 million, increased amortization of other intangible asset expense of $85.8 million, increased processing fees of $54.9 million, increased other expense of $58.6 million, and increased legal and consulting fees of $46.1 million. The increase in 2024 is primarily driven by increases in salaries and employee benefit expense of $40.5 million, increased legal and consulting fees of $16.2 million, increased processing fees of

39

$14.8 million, and increased bankcard expense of $11.3 million, partially offset by decreased regulatory fees of $45.1 million related to the FDIC special assessment. The increase in noninterest expense in 2025 from 2024, and 2024 from 2023 is illustrated in Table 7 and below under Noninterest Expense.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is a significant source of the Company’s earnings and represents the amount by which interest income on earning assets exceeds the interest expense paid on liabilities. The volume of interest earning-assets and the related funding sources, the overall mix of these assets and liabilities, and the interest rates paid on each affect net interest income. Table 2 summarizes the change in net interest income resulting from changes in volume and rates for 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Net interest margin, presented in Table 1, is calculated as net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent basis as a percentage of average earning assets. Net interest income is presented on a tax-equivalent basis to adjust for the tax-exempt status of earnings from certain loans and investments, which are primarily obligations of state and local governments. A critical component of net interest income and related net interest margin is the percentage of earning assets funded by interest-free sources. Table 3 analyzes net interest margin for the three years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Net interest income, average balance sheet amounts and the corresponding yields earned and rates paid for the years 2023 through 2025 are presented in Table 1 below.

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the average earning assets and resulting yields, as well as the average interest-bearing liabilities and resulting yields, expressed in both dollars and rates.

RATE-VOLUME ANALYSIS (in thousands)

This analysis attributes changes in net interest income either to changes in average balances or to changes in average interest rates for earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The change in net interest income that is due to both volume and interest rate has been allocated to volume and interest rate in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amount of the change in each. All interest rates are presented on a tax-equivalent basis and give effect to tax-exempt interest income net of the disallowance of interest expense for federal income tax purposes, related to certain tax-free assets. The loan average balances and rates include nonaccrual loans.

The Company experienced an increase in net interest income of $861.3 million, or 86.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 2024. This follows an increase of $80.8 million, or 8.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 2023. Average earning assets for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $20.1 billion, or 49.2%, compared to the same period in 2024. Net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased to 3.10% for 2025 compared to 2.51% in 2024.

The Company funds a significant portion of its balance sheet with noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits represented 28.3%, 31.6% and 33.9% of total outstanding deposits as of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in 2025 is driven by mix shifts in deposits related to the HTLF acquisition. As illustrated in Table 3, the impact from these interest-free funds was 92 basis points in 2025, as compared to 117 basis points in 2024 and 115 basis points in 2023.

The Company experienced an increase in net interest income during 2025 due to a volume variance of $611.3 million and a rate variance of $250.0 million. The average rate on earning assets during 2025 increased by 17 basis points, while the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 67 basis points, resulting in a 84 basis-point increase in spread. The volume of loans increased from an average of $24.2 billion in 2024 to an average of $36.1 billion in 2025, driven by the acquisition of HTLF and organic loan growth. The volume of interest-bearing liabilities increased from $29.0 billion in 2024 to $44.4 billion in 2025. The Company expects to see continued volatility in the economic markets and governmental responses to inflation, geopolitical tensions, and supply chain constraints. These changing economic conditions and governmental responses could have impacts on the balance sheet and income statement of the Company in 2025. Loan-related earning assets tend to generate a higher spread than those earned in the Company’s investment portfolio. By design, the Company’s investment portfolio is moderate in duration and liquid in its composition of assets.

During 2026, approximately $2.2 billion of available-for-sale securities are expected to have principal repayments. This includes approximately $669 million that will have principal repayments during the first quarter of 2026. The available-for-sale investment portfolio had an average life of 74.8 months, 56.0 months, and 52.6 months as of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Provision and Allowance for Credit Losses

The ACL represents management’s judgment of total expected losses included in the Company’s loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The Company’s process for recording the ACL is based on the evaluation of the Company’s lifetime historical loss experience, management’s understanding of the credit quality inherent in the loan portfolio, and the impact of the current economic environment, coupled with reasonable and supportable economic forecasts.

A mathematical calculation of an estimate is made to assist in determining the adequacy and reasonableness of management’s recorded ACL. To develop the estimate, the Company follows the guidelines in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (ASC 326). The estimate reserves for assets held at amortized cost and any related credit deterioration in the Company’s available-for-sale debt security portfolio. Assets held at amortized cost include the Company’s loan book and held-to-maturity security portfolio.

44

The process involves the consideration of quantitative and qualitative factors relevant to the specific segmentation of loans. These factors have been established over decades of financial institution experience and include economic observation and loan loss characteristics. This process is designed to produce a lifetime estimate of the losses, at a reporting date, that includes evaluation of historical loss experience, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and the qualitative framework outlined by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency in the published 2020 Interagency Policy Statement. This process allows management to take a holistic view of the recorded ACL reserve and ensure that all significant and pertinent information is considered.

The Company considers a variety of factors to ensure the safety and soundness of its estimate including a strong internal control framework, extensive methodology documentation, credit underwriting standards which encompass the Company’s desired risk profile, model validation, and ratio analysis. If the Company’s total ACL estimate, as determined in accordance with the approved ACL methodology, is either outside a reasonable range based on review of economic indicators or by comparison of historical ratio analysis, the ACL estimate is an outlier and management will investigate the underlying reason(s). Based on that investigation, issues or factors that previously had not been considered may be identified in the estimation process, which may warrant adjustments to estimated credit losses.

The ending result of this process is a recorded consolidated ACL that represents management’s best estimate of the total expected losses included in the loan portfolio, held-to-maturity securities, and credit deterioration in available-for-sale securities.

Table 4 presents the components of the allowance by loan portfolio segment. The Company manages the ACL against the risk in the entire loan portfolio and therefore, the allocation of the ACL to a particular loan segment may change in the future. Management of the Company believes the present ACL is adequate considering the Company’s loss experience, delinquency trends and current economic conditions. Future economic conditions and borrowers’ ability to meet their obligations, however, are uncertainties which could affect the Company’s ACL and/or need to change its current level of provision. For more information on loan portfolio segments and ACL methodology refer to Note 3, “Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Table 5 presents a summary of the Company’s ACL for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Also, please see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk – Credit Risk Management” in this report for information relating to nonaccrual, past due, restructured loans, and other credit risk matters. For more information on loan portfolio segments and ACL methodology refer to Note 3, “Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

As illustrated in Table 5 below, the ACL increased as a percentage of total loans to 1.08% as of December 31, 2025, compared to 1.01% as of December 31, 2024. The provision for credit losses, including provision for off-balance sheet credit exposures, totaled $154.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is an increase of $93.5 million, or 153.1%, compared to the same period in 2024. As noted above, $62.0 million was recorded to establish an allowance for credit losses on the acquired loans designated as non-PCD loans at the close of the HTLF acquisition. See Note 20, “Acquisition” below. The provision for credit losses, including provision for off-balance sheet credit exposures, totaled $61.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase is the result of the impacts of loan growth, portfolio metric changes, and changes in macro-economic metrics in the current period as compared to the prior period.

Noninterest Income

A key objective of the Company is the growth of noninterest income to provide a diverse source of revenue not directly tied to interest rates. Fee-based services are typically non-credit related and are not generally affected by fluctuations in interest rates. Noninterest income increased in 2025 by $161.9 million, or 25.8%, compared to 2024 and increased in 2024 by $86.3 million, or 15.9%, compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 is primarily driven by increased trust and securities processing, increased service charges on deposits, increased bankcard fees, and

46

increased investment securities gains, net. The increase in 2024 is primarily driven by increased trust and securities processing income, other miscellaneous income, investment securities gains, net, and bankcard income. Changes in Noninterest income are presented in Table 6 below.

The Company’s fee-based services offer multiple products and services, which management believes will more closely align with customer product demands. The Company is currently emphasizing fee-based services including trust and securities processing, bankcard, securities trading and brokerage and cash and treasury management. Management believes that it can offer these products and services both efficiently and profitably, as most have common platforms and support structures.

Noninterest income and the year-over-year changes in noninterest income are summarized in Table 6 above. The dollar change and percent change columns highlight the respective net increase or decrease in the categories of noninterest income in 2025 compared to 2024, and in 2024 compared to 2023.

Trust and securities processing income consists of fees earned on personal and corporate trust accounts, custody of securities services, trust investments and wealth management services, and mutual fund assets servicing. This income category increased by $52.8 million, or 18.2% in 2025, compared to 2024, and increased by $33.4 million, or 13.0%, in 2024, compared to 2023. During 2025, wealth management services increased $22.3 million primarily driven by the acquisition of HTLF, fund services income increased $19.5 million, and corporate trust income increased $11.0 million. During 2024, fund services income increased $20.5 million, corporate trust income increased $7.7 million and wealth management services increased $5.1 million. The recent volatile markets have impacted the income in this category. Since trust and securities processing fees are primarily asset-based, which are highly correlated to the change in market value of the assets, the related income will be affected by changes in the securities markets. Management continues to emphasize sales of services to both new and existing clients as well as increasing and improving the distribution channels.

Trading and investment banking income increased $1.1 million, or 4.5%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and increased $4.6 million, or 23.4%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 compared to 2024 and the increase in 2024 compared to 2023 was driven by increased bond trading income.

Service charges on deposits income increased $28.7 million, or 34.0%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and decreased $0.4 million, or 0.5%, in 2024 compared to 2023. This increase was largely driven by the HTLF acquisition and increased service charge income from acquired deposit accounts. The decrease in 2024 was driven by decreased healthcare services income, offset by increased commercial service charge income.

Brokerage fees increased $18.0 million, or 29.3%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and increased $7.4 million, or 13.8%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in both years was driven by increased 12b-1 and money market fees driven by the increase in short-term interest rates.

Bankcard fees increased $26.1 million, or 29.8%, in 2025 compared to 2024, and increased $13.1 million, or 17.5%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 was driven by higher interchange income, partially offset

47

by higher rebate and reward costs primarily related to purchase volume from the HTLF acquisition. The increase in 2024 was primarily driven by increased interchange income.

Investment securities gains, net increased $20.2 million in 2025 compared to 2024 and increased $13.9 million in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 was primarily driven by the net gains from the Company's investment in Voyager Technologies, Inc., which completed its initial public offering in June 2025. The increase in 2024 was primarily driven by a gain on the sale of one of the Company's securities without readily determinable fair value in 2024, coupled with the impairment of one available-for-sale debt security in 2023.

Other noninterest income increased $15.3 million, or 22.6%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and increased $14.1 million, or 26.4%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 is driven by increases of $5.3 million in bank-owned life insurance income, $4.1 million in derivative income, a $2.5 million legal settlement recorded in the third quarter of 2025, and $2.4 million in increased syndication income. The increase in 2024 was primarily driven by the gain on the sale of UMB Distribution Services, LLC, a legal settlement, and gains on the sale of other assets during 2024, coupled with increased bank-owned life insurance income.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased in 2025 by $596.1 million, or 58.1%, compared to 2024 and increased in 2024 by $27.5 million, or 2.8%, compared to 2023. From 2024 to 2025 the increase was driven primarily by increased salaries and employee benefits expense, amortization of other intangible assets, processing fees, legal and consulting expense, and other expense. From 2023 to 2024 the increase was driven primarily by increased salaries and employee benefits expense, legal and consulting expense, and processing fees, partially offset by a decrease in regulatory fees. Table 7 below summarizes the components of noninterest expense and the respective year-over-year changes for each category.

Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $290.0 million, or 48.8%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and $40.5 million, or 7.3%, in 2024 compared to 2023. In 2025, bonus and commission expense increased $108.3 million, or 78.9%, salaries and wage expense increased $143.7 million, or 40.7% and employee benefits expense increased $38.0 million, or 36.8%. The 2025 variances in salaries and employee benefits are primarily driven by increased severance, retention bonuses, and change in control payments made to HTLF associates, as well as higher bonus expense due to higher company performance. In 2024, bonus and commission expense increased $22.4 million, or 19.5%, salaries and wage expense increased $14.0 million, or 4.1% and employee benefits expense increased $4.1 million, or 4.1%.

Occupancy expense increased $26.2 million, or 55.1%, in 2025 compared to 2024, and decreased $0.1 million, or 2.0%, from 2023 to 2024. The increase in 2025 was driven by higher volume of activity from the HTLF acquisition.

48

Processing fees expense increased $54.9 million, or 46.6%, in 2025 compared to 2024, and increased $14.8 million, or 14.4%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 was primarily due to increased software subscription costs driven by legacy-HTLF software subscriptions. The increase in 2024 was primarily driven by higher software subscription costs due to the transition to cloud computing solutions and ongoing investments in digital channel and integrated platform solutions to support business growth.

Legal and consulting expense increased $46.1 million, or 99.8%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and increased $16.2 million, or 54.0%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 was primarily due to non-recurring transaction costs associated with the acquisition. The increase in 2024 was driven by expenses incurred related to the announced acquisition of HTLF.

Amortization of other intangible assets expense increased $85.8 million, or 1,113.8%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and decreased $0.1 million, or 10.3%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 is primarily due to amortization of the core deposit intangible, customer list and purchased credit card relationship intangibles recognized from the HTLF acquisition.

Regulatory fees decreased $3.2 million, or 9.9%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and decreased $45.1 million, or 58.6%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The decrease in 2025 and the decrease in 2024 was driven by the FDIC special assessment of $52.8 million recorded in 2023.

Other noninterest expense increased $58.6 million, or 191.7%, in 2025 compared to 2024 and decreased $3.7 million, or 10.8%, in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2025 was primarily due to fees for termination of legacy HTLF contracts, coupled with higher operational losses, increased contribution expense, and increased expenses related to the HTLF acquisition for property taxes and insurance. The decreases in 2024 was driven by lower charitable contribution expenses and operational losses.

Income tax expense totaled $172.6 million, $100.0 million, and $71.6 million in 2025, 2024, and 2023 respectively. These amounts equate to effective tax rates of 19.7%, 18.5%, and 17.0% for 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate from 2024 to 2025 is primarily attributable to a smaller proportion of pre-tax income being earned from tax-exempt municipal securities, lower federal tax credits, net of related amortization, and higher state and local taxes. The increase was partially offset by more favorable discrete tax items in 2025, including a benefit from remeasuring deferred tax assets after the HTLF acquisition increased the state marginal tax rate. The increase in the effective tax rate from 2023 to 2024 is primarily attributable to a smaller proportion of pre-tax income being earned from tax-exempt municipal securities and higher non-deductible acquisition costs in 2024. These increases were partially offset by an increase in federal tax credits, net of related amortization.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was signed into law in the U.S., which contains a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, including restoring 100% bonus depreciation, removing the requirement to capitalize and amortize domestic research and development expenditures, and a 25% exclusion of interest income on loans secured by rural or agricultural real property. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others being phased in through 2027. The effective provisions of the OBBBA were reflected in the Company's financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025, and did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

For further information on income taxes refer to Note 16, “Income Taxes,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Business Segments

The Company has strategically aligned its operations into the following three reportable segments: Commercial Banking, Institutional Banking, and Personal Banking (collectively, the Business Segments). Senior executive officers regularly evaluate Business Segment financial results produced by the Company’s internal reporting system in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance for individual Business Segments. The management accounting system assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each Business Segment using methodologies that are refined on an ongoing basis. For comparability purposes, amounts in all periods are

49

based on methodologies in effect at December 31, 2025. Previously reported results have been reclassified in this Form 10-K to conform to the Company’s current organizational structure.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, Commercial Banking net income increased $184.5 million, or 59.1%, to $497.0 million compared to the same period in 2024. Net interest income increased $622.9 million, or 93.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period last year, primarily driven by the acquisition of HTLF, as well as continued organic loan growth and earning asset mix changes. Provision for credit losses increased $74.8 million, or 144.4%, as compared to 2024, driven by the acquisition of HTLF as well as portfolio metric changes, and changes in macro-economic metrics in 2025 as compared to 2024. Noninterest income increased $45.1 million, or 33.5%, over the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily due to increases of $19.6 million in deposit service charges, $15.7 million in other income driven by increased derivative income, recoveries of loans previously charged off by HTLF, a legal settlement during 2025, and increased syndication income, and $15.6 million in bankcard fees. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $11.0 million in investment security gains. Noninterest expense increased $358.0 million, or 97.5%, as compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was driven by an increase of $219.3 million in technology, service, and overhead expenses, and an increase of $105.6 million in salaries and employee benefit expense, both driven by the acquisition. Additionally, there were increases of $10.0 million in marketing and business development, $7.1 million in regulatory fees, and $5.4 million in processing fees.

Net interest income increased $61.1 million, or 31.0%, compared to the same period last year, due to an increase in funds transfer pricing resulting from higher deposit balances. Provision for credit losses increased $0.7 million as compared to 2024, driven by loan growth, portfolio metric changes, and changes in the macro-economic metrics in 2025 as compared to 2024. Noninterest income increased $50.5 million, or 12.8%, primarily due to increases of $30.4 million in trust and securities processing income driven by higher fund services and corporate trust revenue, an increase of $15.2 million in brokerage income, and $5.1 million in deposit service charges. These increases are partially offset by a decrease of $3.4 million in other income driven by the gain on the sale of UMB Distribution Services, LLC in 2024. Noninterest

Noninterest income increased $66.3 million, or 66.5%, for the same period primarily driven by increases of $29.7 million in investment securities gains, $19.6 million in trust and securities processing income, $7.3 million in bankcard fees, $4.1 million in deposit service charges, and $2.8 million in brokerage income. Noninterest expense increased $201.4 million, or 76.8%, primarily due to increases of $102.3 million in technology, service, and overhead expenses, and $62.5 million in salaries and employee benefits, both driven by the HTLF acquisition. Additionally, there were increases of $10.6 million in other expense driven by increased charitable contributions, $7.2 million in supplies and services, $5.6 million in processing fees, $3.4 million in regulatory fees, $3.4 million in equipment, and $3.3 million in marketing and business development.

Balance Sheet Analysis

Loans and Loans Held For Sale

Loans represent the Company’s largest source of interest income. Loan balances held for investment increased by $13.1 billion, or 51.2%, in 2025. This increase was primarily driven by an increase of $6.2 billion, or 61.6%, in commercial real estate loans, $5.3 billion, or 48.0%, in commercial and industrial loans, and $1.2 billion, or 39.2% in consumer real estate loans. A significant driver in the increases in loans was the acquisition of HTLF and its loan portfolio with an acquired fair value of $9.7 billion at January 31, 2025.

Commercial and industrial loans and commercial real estate loans continue to represent the largest segments of the Company’s loan portfolio, comprising approximately 42.0% and 42.2%, respectively, of total loans and loans held for sale at the end of 2025 and 42.5% and 39.5%, respectively, of total loans and loans held for sale at the end of 2024.

As a percentage of total loans, commercial real estate comprised 42.2% of total loans compared to 39.5% in 2024. Commercial real estate loans generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than consumer real estate loans because they typically have larger balances and are more affected by adverse conditions in the economy. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate often depend upon the successful operation and management of the properties and the businesses which operate from within them, repayment of such loans may be affected by factors outside the borrower’s control, such as adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy or changes in government regulations. In recent years, commercial real estate markets have been particularly impacted by the economic disruption resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has also been a catalyst for the evolution of various remote work options, which could impact the long-term performance of some types of office properties within our commercial real estate portfolio. Due to these risks, the Company is actively monitoring its exposure to commercial real estate.

51

Generally, these loans are made for investment and real estate development or working capital and business expansion purposes and are primarily secured by real estate with a maximum loan-to-value of 80%. Most of these properties are non-owner occupied and have guarantees as additional security. The Company’s investment CRE portfolio (which includes non-owner occupied and construction loans) totaled 27.5% and 28.5% of total Company loans as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The average investment CRE loan was approximately $3.6 million and $7.2 million, as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The properties securing the commercial real estate portfolio are diverse in terms of type and geographic location. This diversity helps reduce exposure to adverse economic events that affect any single market or industry. Notwithstanding, commercial real estate loans, in general, may be more adversely impacted by conditions in the real estate market or the economy.

The following table presents the Company’s investment CRE (which includes non-owner occupied and construction loans) by industry. The table separately discloses the top five industries as a percentage of the Company’s loan portfolio as of either period presented, while the remainder are included in “Other.”

Investment Securities

The Company’s investment portfolio contains trading, available-for-sale (AFS), and held-to-maturity (HTM) securities as well as FRB stock, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock, and other miscellaneous investments. Investment securities totaled $20.1 billion as of December 31, 2025 and $13.7 billion as of December 31, 2024 and comprised 29.9% and 28.5% of the Company’s earning assets, respectively, as of those dates. A significant driver in

52

the increase in the Company's investment portfolio was the acquisition of HTLF and its bond portfolio, which added total securities with an acquired fair value of $3.6 billion at January 31, 2025.

The Company’s AFS securities portfolio comprised 68.1% of the Company’s investment securities portfolio at December 31, 2025, compared to 56.9% at December 31, 2024. The Company’s AFS securities portfolio provides liquidity as a result of the composition and average life of the underlying securities. This liquidity can be used to fund loan growth or to offset the outflow of traditional funding sources. The average life of the AFS securities portfolio increased from 56.0 months at December 31, 2024 to 74.8 months at December 31, 2025. In addition to providing a potential source of liquidity, the AFS securities portfolio can be used as a tool to manage interest rate sensitivity. The Company’s goal in the management of its AFS securities portfolio is to maximize return within the Company’s parameters of liquidity goals, interest rate risk and credit risk.

Management expects collateral pledging requirements for public funds, loan demand, and deposit funding to be the primary factors impacting changes in the level of AFS securities. There were $13.4 billion and $10.5 billion of securities pledged to secure U.S. Government deposits, other public deposits, certain trust deposits, derivative transactions, and repurchase agreements at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The Company’s HTM securities portfolio consists of U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. agency-backed securities, mortgage-backed securities, general obligation bonds, and private placement bonds. The Company’s HTM portfolio, net of the ACL totaled $5.7 billion as of December 31, 2025, an increase of $346.3 million from December 31, 2024. The average life of the HTM portfolio was 8.5 years at December 31, 2025, compared to 9.1 years at December 31, 2024.

The securities portfolio generates the Company’s second largest component of interest income. The AFS, HTM, and Other securities portfolios achieved an average yield on a tax-equivalent basis of 3.68% for 2025, compared to 2.96% in 2024.

At December 31, 2025, securities available for sale had a net unrealized loss of $290.8 million, or 2.1%, of the $14.0 billion amortized cost value, an improvement of $342.6 million compared to a net unrealized loss of $633.3 million the preceding year. This market value change primarily reflects the impact of decreasing market interest rates as of December 31, 2025, compared to December 31, 2024. These amounts are reflected, on an after-tax basis, in the Company’s Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) in shareholders’ equity, as an unrealized loss of $221.4 million at year-end 2025, compared to an unrealized loss of $478.5 million for 2024. The AFS securities portfolio contains securities that have unrealized losses (see the table of these securities in Note 4, “Securities,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The unrealized losses in the Company’s investments were caused by changes in interest rates, and not from a decline in credit of the underlying issuers. The U.S. Treasury, U.S. Agency, and Government Sponsored Entity (GSE) mortgage-backed securities are all considered to be agency-backed securities with no risk of loss as they are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government. The changes in fair value in the agency-backed portfolios are solely driven by change in interest rates caused by changing economic conditions. The Company has no knowledge of any underlying credit issues and the cash flows underlying the debt securities have not changed and are not expected to be impacted by changes in interest rates. As of December 31, 2025, the Company does not believe the decline in value in these portfolios is related to credit impairments and instead is due to increasing market interest rates. For the State and political subdivision portfolio, the majority of the Company’s holdings are in general obligation bonds, which have a very low historical default rate due to issuers generally having unlimited taxing authority to service the debt. For the State and political, Corporates, and Collateralized loan obligations portfolios, the Company has a robust process for monitoring credit risk, including both pre-purchase and ongoing post-purchase credit reviews and analysis. The Company monitors credit ratings of all bond issuers in these segments and reviews available financial data, including market and sector trends. The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and does not believe it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before a recovery of amortized cost. As of December 31, 2025, there is no ACL related to the Company’s available-for-sale securities as the decline in fair value did not result from credit issues.

Securities held to maturity had a net unrealized loss of $473.8 million or 8.3% of the $5.7 billion amortized cost value as of December 31, 2025, compared to a net unrealized loss of $630.0 million at December 31, 2024. During 2022, the Company transferred securities with an amortized cost balance of $4.1 billion and a fair value of $3.8 billion from the AFS category to the HTM category. The transfer of securities was made at fair value at the time of transfer. The remaining balance of unrealized pre-tax losses related to transferred securities was $139.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and $171.3 million as of December 31, 2024, and was included in the amortized

53

cost balance of HTM securities. See further information in Note 4, "Securities" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Included in Tables 13 and 14 are analyses of the fair value and average yield (tax-equivalent basis) of securities available for sale and securities held to maturity.

Unrealized gains or losses on equity securities with and without readily determinable fair values are recognized in the Investment Securities gains, net line of the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

For further information on the Company’s investment securities, refer to Note 4, “Securities,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other Earning Assets

Federal funds transactions essentially are overnight loans between financial institutions, which allow for either the daily investment of excess funds or the daily borrowing of another institution’s funds in order to meet short-term liquidity needs. The net borrowed position was $32.1 million at December 31, 2025 compared to $70.4 million at December 31, 2024.

The Bank buys and sells federal funds as agent for non-affiliated banks. Because the transactions are pursuant to agency arrangements, these transactions do not appear on the balance sheet and averaged $215.3 million in 2025 and $161.7 million in 2024.

At December 31, 2025, the Company held securities purchased under agreements to resell of $1.5 billion compared to $545.0 million at December 31, 2024. The Company uses these instruments as short-term secured investments, in lieu of selling federal funds, or to acquire securities required for collateral purposes. Balances will

56

fluctuate based on the Company’s liquidity and investment decisions as well as the Company’s correspondent bank borrowing levels. These investments averaged $776.8 million in 2025 and $303.0 million in 2024.

The Company also maintains an active securities trading inventory. The average holdings in the securities trading inventory in 2025 were $17.2 million, compared to $22.3 million in 2024, and were recorded at fair market value. As discussed in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk – Trading Account” in Part II, Item 7A, the Company offsets the trading account securities by the sale of exchange-traded financial futures contracts, with both the trading account and futures contracts marked to market daily.

Interest-bearing due from banks totaled $6.9 billion as of December 31, 2025 compared to $8.0 billion as of December 31, 2024 and includes amounts due from the FRB and interest-bearing accounts held at other financial institutions. The amount due from the FRB averaged $6.0 billion and $3.4 billion during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in the FRB balance at December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year is primarily related to the acquisition of HTLF. The interest-bearing accounts held at other financial institutions totaled $121.1 million and $110.8 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Deposits and Borrowed Funds

Deposits represent the Company’s primary funding source for its asset base. In addition to the core deposits garnered by the Company’s retail branch structure, the Company continues to focus on its cash management services, as well as its asset management and mutual fund servicing businesses in order to attract and retain additional core deposits. Management believes a strong core deposit composition is one of the Company's key strengths given its competitive product mix. Deposits totaled $60.7 billion at December 31, 2025 and $43.1 billion at December 31, 2024, an increase of $17.5 billion, or 40.6%. There were $590.4 million and $1.0 billion of brokered deposits as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Deposits averaged $55.1 billion in 2025, and $35.3 billion in 2024. A significant driver in the increases in the Company's deposits was the acquisition of HTLF, which added total deposits with an acquired fair value of $14.3 billion at January 31, 2025.

Noninterest-bearing demand deposits averaged $14.1 billion in 2025 and $10.1 billion in 2024. These deposits represented 25.6% of average deposits in 2025, compared to 28.5% in 2024. The Company’s large commercial customer base provides a significant source of noninterest-bearing deposits. Many of these commercial accounts do not earn interest; however, they receive an earnings credit to offset the cost of other services provided by the Company.

As of December 31, 2025, there were an estimated $39.7 billion of uninsured deposits, as compared to $31.0 billion as of December 31, 2024. Estimated uninsured deposits comprised approximately 65.4% and 72.0% of total deposits as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. A portion of these uninsured deposits represent affiliate deposits and collateralized deposits. Affiliate deposits represent deposit accounts owned by the wholly owned subsidiaries of UMB Financial Corporation that are on deposit at the Bank. Collateralized deposits are public fund deposits or corporate trust deposits that are collateralized by high quality securities within the investment portfolio. Excluding affiliate deposits of $2.9 billion and collateralized deposits of $7.6 billion, the adjusted estimated uninsured deposits were $29.2 billion as of December 31, 2025. Excluding affiliate deposits of $2.4 billion and collateralized deposits of $6.0 billion, the adjusted estimated uninsured deposits were $22.7 billion as of December 31, 2024. The adjusted ratio of estimated uninsured deposits, excluding affiliate and collateralized deposits, as a percentage of total deposits was approximately 48.1% and 52.6% as of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.

57

The Company participates in the IntraFi Cash Service program, which allows its customers to place deposits into the program to receive reciprocal FDIC insurance coverage. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $3.5 billion and $1.3 billion of deposits in the program, respectively.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

The Company places a significant emphasis on the maintenance of a strong capital position, which it believes promotes investor confidence, provides access to funding sources under favorable terms, and enhances the Company’s ability to capitalize on business growth and acquisition opportunities. Higher levels of liquidity, however, bear corresponding costs, measured in terms of lower yields on short-term, more liquid earning assets, and higher expenses for extended liability maturities. The Company manages capital for each subsidiary based upon the subsidiary’s respective risks and growth opportunities as well as regulatory requirements.

Total shareholders’ equity increased $4.2 billion, or 121.9% to $7.7 billion at December 31, 2025 as compared to December 31, 2024, driven by the acquisition of HTLF. Total common shareholders' equity was $7.4 billion as of December 31, 2025. Total accumulated other comprehensive loss was $261.5 million at December 31, 2025, which is an improvement of $311.5 million as compared to December 31, 2024. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company issued 12.0 million depositary shares, each representing a 1/400th interest in a share of the Company's 7.75% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company completed the redemption of all of its outstanding 7.00% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A at the redemption price of $10,000 per share.

The Board authorized, at its April 29, 2025 and April 30, 2024 meetings, the repurchase of up to one million shares of the Company's common stock during the twelve months following the meeting (a Repurchase Authorization). On July 25, 2023, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to one million shares of the Company's stock, which terminated on April 30, 2024. During 2025 and 2024, the Company did not repurchase shares of common stock pursuant to any of its announced Repurchase Authorizations, but did acquire shares pursuant to the Company's share-based incentive programs.

On April 28, 2024, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement with HTLF, a Delaware corporation and Blue Sky Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger Agreement and the merger were unanimously approved by the boards of directors of the Company and HTLF. Pending regulatory approval and approval by the shareholders of the Company and HTLF, and the merger closed on January 31, 2025. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, HTLF stockholders received a fixed exchange ratio of

58

0.55 shares of the Company’s common stock for each share of HTLF stock, with a total market value of approximately $2.8 billion.

Additionally, on April 29, 2024, the Company also announced that in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, it entered into a forward sale agreement with BofA Securities, Inc. or its affiliate to issue 2.8 million shares of its common stock. The underwriters were granted an option to purchase up to an additional 420 thousand shares of the Company's common stock exercisable within 30 days of April 28, 2024. The underwriters exercised this option in full on April 30, 2024, upon which the Company entered into an additional forward sale agreement relating to the 420 thousand shares of the Company's common stock. The forward sale agreements are classified as an equity instrument under ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. The Company received net proceeds of $235.1 million from the sale of shares of common stock and settlement of the forward sale agreements.

At the Company's quarterly board meeting, the Board declared a $0.43 per common share quarterly cash dividend payable on April 1, 2026, to common shareholders of record at the close of business on March 10, 2026. Additionally, the Board declared a dividend of $193.75 per share of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, which results in a dividend of $0.484375 per depositary share. The Series B Preferred Stock dividend is payable on April 15, 2026 to stockholders of record of the Series B Preferred Stock as of the close of business on March 31, 2026.

Risk-based capital guidelines established by regulatory agencies set minimum capital standards based on the level of risk associated with a financial institution’s assets. The Company has implemented the Basel III regulatory capital rules adopted by the FRB. Basel III capital rules include a minimum ratio of common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5% and a minimum tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6%. A financial institution’s total capital is also required to equal at least 8% of risk-weighted assets.

The risk-based capital guidelines indicate the specific risk weightings by type of asset. Certain off-balance sheet items (such as standby letters of credit and binding loan commitments) are multiplied by credit conversion factors to translate them into balance sheet equivalents before assigning them specific risk weightings. The Company is also required to maintain a leverage ratio equal to or greater than 4%. The leverage ratio is tier 1 core capital to total average assets less goodwill and intangibles. The Company's capital position as of December 31, 2025 is summarized in the table below and exceeded regulatory requirements.

Repurchase agreements are transactions involving the exchange of investment funds by the customer for securities by the Company, under an agreement to repurchase the same issues at an agreed-upon price and date. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase and federal funds purchased totaled $3.3 billion at December 31, 2025, and $2.6 billion at December 31, 2024. Repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased averaged $2.8 billion in 2025 and $2.3 billion in 2024. The Company enters into these transactions with its downstream correspondent banks, commercial customers, and various trust, mutual fund, and local government relationships.

The Company is a member bank with the FHLB of Des Moines, and through this relationship, the Company owns FHLB stock and has access to additional liquidity and funding sources through FHLB advances. The Company’s borrowing capacity is dependent upon the amount of collateral the Company places at the FHLB. As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company owned $10.3 million and $10.2 million of FHLB stock, respectively.

The Company had no outstanding advances at the FHLB of Des Moines as of December 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had four letters of credit outstanding with the FHLB of Des Moines to secure deposits. These letters of credit have an aggregate amount of $261.0 million and have various maturity dates through March 10, 2026. The Company's remaining borrowing capacity with the FHLB was $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2025. During 2024, the FHLB of Des Moines issued a letter of credit for $150.0 million on behalf of the Company to secure deposits. The letter of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2024 expired in January 2025 and was subsequently renewed with an expiration date in March 2025.

In addition to the borrowing capacity with the FHLB as described above, the Company had additional liquidity of $35.1 billion available via cash, unpledged bond collateral, the federal funds market, the Federal Reserve Discount Window, and the IntraFi Cash Service program as of December 31, 2025.

Long-term debt totaled $474.2 million at December 31, 2025, compared to $385.3 million at December 31, 2024. The increase in long-term debt in 2025 was driven by the acquisition of HTLF, which added total long-term

60

debt with an acquired fair value of $278.0 million at January 31, 2025, partially offset by the repayment of the Company's 2020 subordinated notes during the third quarter of 2025.

In September 2022, the Company issued $110.0 million in aggregate subordinated notes due in September 2032. The Company received $107.9 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, and used the proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including, among other uses, contributing Tier 1 capital into the Bank. The subordinated notes were issued with a fixed-to-fixed rate of 6.25% and an effective rate of 6.64% due to issuance costs, with an interest rate reset date of September 2027.

In September 2020, the Company issued $200.0 million in aggregate subordinated notes due in September 2030. The Company received $197.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, and used the proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including, among other uses, contributing Tier 1 capital into the Bank. The subordinated notes were issued with a fixed-to-fixed rate of 3.70% and an effective rate of 3.93%, due to issuance costs. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company purchased and subsequently retired $11.1 million of its 2020 subordinated notes. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company redeemed the remainder of the outstanding 2020 subordinated notes.

As part of the acquisition of HTLF, the Company acquired $150.0 million in aggregate subordinated notes due in September 2031. The subordinated notes have a fixed interest rate of 2.75% until September 2026, at which time the interest rate will reset quarterly. The subordinated notes had an acquired fair value of $138.8 million as of January 31, 2025.

The remainder of the Company’s long-term debt was assumed from the acquisitions of Marquette Financial Companies in 2015 and HTLF in 2025 and consists of debt obligations payable to 19 unconsolidated trusts that previously issued trust preferred securities. These long-term debt obligations had an aggregate contractual balance of $262.9 million and had a carrying value of $220.0 million at December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the debt obligations related to the four unconsolidated trusts acquired from Marquette had an aggregate contractual balance of $103.1 million and had a carrying value of $76.8 million. Interest rates on trust preferred securities are tied to the three-month term SOFR with spreads ranging from 133 basis points to 365 basis points and reset quarterly. The trust preferred securities have maturity dates ranging from September 2032 to September 2037. For further information on long-term debt refer to Note 9, “Borrowed Funds,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company has material off-balance sheet arrangements in the form of loan commitments, commercial and standby letters of credit, futures contracts and forward exchange contracts, which have maturity dates rather than payment due dates. These commitments and contingent liabilities are not required to be recorded on the Company’s balance sheet. Since commitments associated with letters of credit and lending and financing arrangements may expire unused, the amounts shown do not necessarily reflect the actual future cash funding requirements. See Table 19 below, as well as Note 15, “Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8 for detailed information and further discussion of these arrangements. Management does not anticipate any material losses from its off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to customers and suppliers, allowance for credit losses, bad debts, investments, financing operations, long-lived assets, taxes, other contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which have formed the basis for making such judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Under different assumptions or conditions, actual results may differ from the recorded estimates.

Management believes that the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates are those relating to the allowance for credit losses and certain purchase accounting fair value estimates including the fair value of loans acquired in, and the core deposit intangibles associated with, the acquisition of HTLF.

62

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company’s ACL represents management’s judgment of the total expected losses included in the Company’s assets held at amortized cost. The Company’s process for recording the ACL is based on the evaluation of the Company’s lifetime historical loss experience, management’s understanding of the credit quality inherent in the loan portfolio, and the impact of the current economic environment, coupled with reasonable and supportable economic forecasts.

A mathematical calculation of an estimate is made to assist in determining the adequacy and reasonableness of management’s recorded ACL. To develop the estimate, the Company follows the guidelines in ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The estimate reserves for assets held at amortized cost, which include the Company’s loan and held-to-maturity security portfolios.

The estimation process involves the consideration of quantitative and qualitative factors relevant to the specific segmentation of loans. These factors have been established over decades of financial institution experience and include economic observation and loan loss characteristics. This process is designed to produce a lifetime estimate of the losses, at a reporting date, that is based on evaluation of historical loss experience, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and the qualitative framework outlined by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency in the published 2020 Interagency Policy Statement. This process allows management to take a holistic view of the recorded ACL reserve and ensure that all significant and pertinent information is considered in its estimate.

The Company considers a variety of factors to ensure the safety and soundness of its estimate including a strong internal control framework, extensive methodology documentation, credit underwriting standards which encompass the Company’s desired risk profile, model validation, and ratio analysis. If the Company’s total ACL estimate, as determined in accordance with the approved ACL methodology, is either outside a reasonable range based on review of economic indicators or by comparison of historical ratio analysis, the ACL estimate is an outlier and management will investigate the underlying reason(s). Based on that investigation, issues or factors that previously had not been considered may be identified in the estimation process, which may warrant adjustments to estimated credit losses.

The ending result of this process is a recorded consolidated ACL that represents management’s best estimate of the total expected losses included in the loan and held-to-maturity security portfolios considering available information, from internal and external sources, relevant to assessing exposure to credit loss over the contractual term of the instrument. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the ACL is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond the Company’s control, including the performance of its portfolios, the economy, and changes in interest rates. As such, significant downturns in circumstances relating to loan quality and economic conditions could result in a requirement for additional allowance. Likewise, an upturn in loan quality and improved economic conditions may allow a reduction in the required allowance. In either instance, unanticipated changes could have a significant impact on the Company’s Provision for credit losses and ACL reported in its Consolidated Income Statements and Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.

For more information on loan portfolio segments, the Company’s ACL methodology, and management’s assumptions in estimating the ACL, refer to the section captioned “Allowance for Credit Losses” within Note 3, “Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Purchase Accounting Fair Value Estimates

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recorded at their fair values as of the date of acquisition. The determination of estimated fair values required management to make certain estimates about discount rates, expected future cash flows, market conditions at the time of acquisition, and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and may require adjustments. The fair values for these items are further discussed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 20, “Acquisition,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Fair values of loans acquired in and core deposit intangibles associated with the acquisition of HTLF are considered critical accounting estimates and are further discussed below.

Loans

The fair value for acquired loans was based on a discounted cash flow method that considered the loans’ underlying characteristics including account type, remaining terms of loans, annual interest rates or coupon, fixed or variable interest rate, past delinquencies, risk rating, timing of principal and interest payments, current market rates, loan to value ratios, loss exposure, more specifically the probability of default and loss given default, and remaining balance. Loans were aggregated according to similar characteristics when applying the valuation method.

Core Deposit Intangibles

Core deposit intangibles represent the value of relationships with deposit clients and the cost savings derived from available core deposits relative to an alternative funding source. The fair value of the core deposit intangible was estimated using a net cost savings method, a variation of the income approach. This approach considers expected client attrition rates, average life and balance inflation, alternative cost of funds, the interest cost and net maintenance cost associated with the client deposit base, and a discount rate used to discount the future economic benefits of the core deposit intangible asset to present value.
